in the use of chemical weapons against the civilian population it province. the provocation which is being organized with the active help of british intelligence services is intended to serve as yet another pretext for a missile strike by the u.s. the u.k. and france again state an industry facilities in syria we now see plans for the syrian regime to resume our fans of military activities and it would grow but. we are obviously concerned. about the possibility that it may use chemical weapons again if the syrian regime uses chemical weapons we will respond very strongly i

think washington is preparing for a strike in the region and for all the wrong reasons you know i think you got to look at the bigger picture of what's happening in syria america and from it is looking increasingly in significant i mean to use the term losers is almost an understatement they don't really seem to have any real impact on the ground anymore with the biggest in the whole region the kurds in the whole region the kurds a few days looking more and more like is it going to strike a deal with the assad regime so you've got a certain amount of embarrassment on trump's side you know people in america not just media but all sorts of people are asking well what is america actually doing there on the ground. or tensions boiling over in sweden ahead of parliamentary elections as a neo nazi rally is confronted with counter protest it's got all the details for you after this break.

join me every thursday on the alex i'm unsure and i'll be speaking to us of the world of politics. i'm sure. i'll see you then. if you are lost that's say the collapse gap when the soviet union collapsed because of the u.s. meddling in boris yeltsin and all that's going on they had this skyrocketing alcoholism and so shoulder. here in the u.s. because you have this enormous financial aid reengineering to take all the money being printed and put in the pockets of a few folks and leave the vast majority in a state of zombification this is the collapse gap he was talking about the u.s. and the soviet union both collapsed in the one thousand nine hundred ninety period and just took the stake in the u.s. as he describes it you no longer to realize that collapse.

welcome back the former fast minister of scotland alex some days taking the country's government to court he claims its inquiry into his alleged sexual misconduct is illegal the case revolves around allegations of sexual harassment made by two style foes the incumbent a first minister nicola sturgeon who's a close ally of some and says she wants to see the investigation progress even though it could have undesirable ramifications for her party. for my party this will be extremely upsetting to members of the s.n.p. up and down the country it's a difficult situation but what is important is that complaints are treated

seriously regardless of who the person complained about it is i can confirm that the scottish government receives two complaints in january in relation to an exam and mrs hammond was notified of the complaints in march and phoned mr simonds in the people involved on wednesday august the twenty second of my conclusions and the time was considering the public interest in making the fact of the complaints an investigation publicly known i know is that the full methodist minister has indicated his intention to challenge the action taken by the scottish government this goatish government will defend its position the gristly the allegations against sam and concern events that allegedly occurred back in twenty thirty in the former first minister has flatly denied the claims calling the government's complaints process unfair and unjust we spoke to him about the case.

i fitted the complaints that were made against me by that i have sued didn't i barely semblance of criminality. saw when you have such things you need a process which is both confidential and fear and most reasonable people understand that and what i'm not frightened of going to the highest court in the law and to establish that it seems the scottish government looks a bit shaky in their position you know everything like this the pains of having a fair show having a fear of chiller to never fear the scottish government process doesn't do that you don't get to see the evidence you don't get to present your own case i was dying for speaking to stanley cup a civil servant. these investigators the very good data confidentiality if you don't have that then the whole mess of people good. the confidence to complete in future because not just about the person complained of oh it's the confidentiality of the complainants and the scottish government would

break the lack of the bench ality so we told them to not make that statement because we were taking the action in the court session but it's an extraordinary situation when the scottish government starts to break is ordered confidentiality after the shooting everybody connected with this that that was going to be absolutely protected for the process. well let's understand what's unique about the scottish government process of talking about events of many years ago when i'm not or a serving scottish government minister not you the name peer they may speak at the present moment and therefore it's really important if you try and introduce such a reckless specter procedure scottish government's been making the position look the should apply to everybody including former first militantly agree and evidently agree and every including former first minister everybody in the land is intitled to a fear of process and a chance to state the case fairly what could be wrong without that vote you know we're

a say the only good i can see coming out of this is we're on our way to the court of session that's a real court with real judgement with fear process is the only the decision and then we'll all have to weber's. with the general election on the horizon in sweden the battle for power has moved to the street early on saturday a controversial group called the nordic resistance movement held a rally and was met with an opposing crowd and jetting to quote the nazis marching in central stockholm artie's maria for national heard from both sides of the barricades. with the we are saying things just don't run right now igs we did the gathering of nordic resistance movement needs. nordic organization but here in sweden it's also a political party and they are running for the upcoming elections here in the

country and being sad that this gathering is a chance for them to make their message heard our message today is that we want to take back to congress from the traitors in the parliament. to infer two percent of the inhabitants of. europeans for two percent it's already too late for just stopped immigration we must kick the bucket kind of like coal for a violent response you know what's going on here is that where you want violence. i don't see any violence apart from swedish national socialist gathering right there and people who gathered here to count to demonstrate there are dozens of other gatherings ing stockholm today. oh. my god. i just had a chance to speak to the leader of the nordic reasons movement and he told us that he did a great thing for german people hitler was definitely a very very good person for the german people definitely. the free

germany it's disgusting and he i i would say that i'm almost lacking words here not beleaguered to say that the diplomacy going to go i mean that must be cause for the police to intervene or to get to ninety five percent of my family leave the gas and burn it sweden is going palm until elections in two weeks a hard time for any country and as they say here everybody wants to be on the streets these days to make their voice heard preproduction on our t.v. from stockholm in sweden. and as monks it mentions that another rally was held today a march by workers unions to find out more head to maria from the ocean as twitter feed for updates from swayed and. ahead of the election. recognizing. but it's not only protests that have shaken sweden of late

a string of recent arson attacks rocked the country with dorothy's describing them as organized and prepared police said up to one hundred cars were destroyed or damaged in sweden's second biggest city gothenburg earlier this month. thank. you. so much. lead. police have arrested three suspects in connection with the attacks one of them is of turkish origin although any motive behind the attacks is unknown sun media reports and politicians have shifted the blame to the right wing social democratic party they claim such an incident would benefit the parties and immigration stance

well those are the headlines for this hour here at the top of the hour it will be andrew farmer with the latest headlines.

when a loved one is murder it's natural to seek the death penalty for the murderer i would prefer it be in the death penalty just because i think that's the way i think the right thing research shows that for every nine executions one convict is found innocent the idea that we were executing innocent people is terrifying the is just no way that doesn't mean that we're even many of the times families want the death penalty to be abolished the reason we have to get pell here is because that's what murder victims' families what that's going to give them peace that's going to give them justice and we come in and say. not quite enough we've been through this this isn't the way.

to do not age the comedy show we're americans in america covering american news we're going foreign agents asked recently in nicaragua put down a violent who are trying to overthrow the government of daniel ortega ever everyone knows that most often when you hear the words violent who there's a little. prefix is often added on us back to it's they did. they did come to us back and violent to go together like peas and carrots doesn't it they go together like monsanto and genetically modified peas and carrots. and it's actually nice because the g.m. of peas and carrots can actually hold hands it's really up. to the door of oil you belong together of course if you've been watching them corporate media you've heard nothing about nicaragua or really any u.s. backed anything for example there's a u.s. backed genocide going on in yemen right now and as

a recent fairness and accuracy in reporting study made clear over the past a year on m s n b c there have been zero stories about yemen and while there have been four hundred and fifty five stories about the porn star president putin. which is like four hundred forty five too many i feel like even if you're really into presidential erotic fan fiction is that still two hundred too many that's still. a way. back to latin america the u.s. has had a long policy of undermining infiltrating and destroying any latin american government that doesn't line up with u.s. policies me meaning if they're not down for neil liberal pro-war pro all economy if a leader says let's live a different way where everyone is taken care of and we help each other out then the

us will make sure they end up wearing cement shoes at the bottom of a leg somewhere and then the jews won't even be laid by union cement workers because all the union have been destroyed so you get like freelance underpaid children cement workers making the shoes is. probably part of the gig economy where you have some sort of cement to apple but your phone. bricks cement layers into working for pennies because they don't understand the algorithm is a margin mark and they only but you know if you do it's not even quality to make sure craftsmanship it. shoddy underpaid so menchu work. anyway nicaragua nicaragua is the latest the us backed attempted coup so i thought this would be a good time to take a moment to give you how to create a u.s. backed government whom. you know and you can play along at home especially if your home is in nicaragua or venezuela. step one create a strong u.s.

backed fifth column column you should know i mean how do you not know it's a group of people who undermine the government of a country in support of the enemy they can be both covert and open and i can't believe you know this is the part of the show where i pretend to know something that i just learned two days ago. and i make you feel really dumb i can live you know. there are various ways to create fist columns we here in the us like to create ours using a good wholesome front nonprofit organization. our two favorites are usa id and the national endowment for democracy and he did what is the any day well as editor of consorting news robert perry put it in one thousand nine hundred three and he essential he took over the cia's role of influencing electoral outcomes

because who has the time right and. the stabilising governments that got in the way of u.s. interests and also serves as a sort of slush fund for neo cons now i don't know about you but when i picture a neo con slush fund i picture like dick cheney mitch mcconnell and bill kristol naked in a small bath tub filled with vomit of all their victims. i mean i know it's gross but it's probably less gross then what a neo con slush fund really is. how we use anything and usa id to destabilize countries and keep in mind there are consequences to destabilizing countries you know we indirectly killing a lot of people a lot of people and poor destitute they end up with their lives or a lot of people at least lose their high scores on their video games which is i mean i understand why nobody cares about an infant with cholera but twenty thousand points on level five call of duty when your player already has the advanced armor

defense system and three get inside to just shrug that off. by the way i've never played call of duty so i just made up a point system. in the nerd community that's like a war crime. yes to undermine the country's economy this can be done via sanctions like we are doing right now in venezuela and iran it's very important to not care at all if that economic warfare kills people are right if they have babies die because they can't get the medical treatment they need now your problem you've got other stuff to worry about like bird if your twelve hundred dollar loan. the first. part is part of step two is to use the fifth column and the obedient us media hacks like c.n.n. fox news n.p.r. to convince the people of said country that their economic troubles or the fault of only the president it's

a venezuelan president's fault that you don't have toilet paper he's hoarding all the toilet paper all right he loves it he should not down now through own of an angel soft triple block that you didn't even know there was trouble but. here is a dish the second joint of the world right now oh out oh that's a happy rectum but. what our corporate media really doesn't want you to know is the actual truth as peter cullen to an international observer for the presidential economic advisory commission stated it is absolutely clear who is behind the food and medicine boycotts and empty supermarket shelves and the induced internal violence in venezuela it is a carbon copy of what the cia under kissinger's command did in chile in one thousand nine hundred seventy three which led to the murder of the democratically elected president a un day so you create economic troubles which make people hungry and angry step three wait for internal protests and or create them basically there were legitimate

protests and protests were redirected against the ortega government some of the students involved in redirecting the protests were brought to the u.s. for training by the freedom house a longtime associate of the cia u.s.a. idea announced an additional one point five million dollars to build opposition to the ortega government those two leaders actually came recently and took photos with senator marco rubio i'll tell you if there's one thing i trust it's people who are proud to meet marco rubio. i mean. yeah that is. marco rubio's kids tell people joe biden their father that's how bad it is. still as always syria after genuine protests began the u.s. use the fifth column to exacerbate the tension and channel the protests toward a violent showdown stuff for getting violent while accusing the government of

getting violent this is kind of like when i was a kid and i tell my dad i punched my brother in the face he stuck his face in front of like what was he was swinging his head around like that. we've seen the tactic in nicaragua venezuela many others that were you know there's violence on both sides of the protests but far more on the u.s. backed sides sometimes with help from the cia or our military training facilities like school the americas but using media propaganda many believe there is primarily violence on the government side when in fact it's the opposite step by step one through four don't word kidnap or assassinate. some of the less obvious options don't work and you just got a whack and dude you. just got a whack a doodle do it's what happens or if you're if you're feeling generous you put him on a u.s. military plane and fly him to africa against his will as happened in two thousand and four with the president haiti john bircher on their steed and that must have

been an awkward ten hour flight really just. just said oh you guys are just going to dump me in africa and i'm going to flip flops will be all right you go you know but next time tell the guy to bring split blobs maybe a bottle of rhino repellent or sometimes just saying this this is the least hospitable kidnaping i've had. ecuadorian president hi i'm a role dos died in an airplane accident accidents in one thousand nine hundred eighty one after going forward with a plan to reorganize ecuador's fossil fuel industry which u.s. interests were very much opposed to his airplane fell out of the sky after coming. with a bad case of cia. that's it's like a giant b.p. but only in fact leftist leaders and their airplanes. there are of course many cia plots to assassinate fidel castro in cuba they've come out their freedom of information stuff some of them involving exploding cigars which i can't really look

down on that because that is the funniest way to kill someone. and a few weeks ago we saw an attempt to kill president windorah in venezuela with a small explosive drone and while there's no indication our military was directly involved this time really how they roll you know we prefer to fund front groups so it looks like we we want to make a shit in my family you know we had an alibi we would have our nails done yeah we we were never there were never there when you were there and keep in mind there was a us backed coup of hugo chavez mentor of predecessor in two thousand and two so we have a history here taking out the charge as a matter of government has been a long term goal of the us deep state and there you have it thanks for playing how to create a us bank going to be a. joint join us next week for how to create a us bank yemen colorado. during saudi arabia and definitely

not storing them as n.b.c. they have no idea what you're talking about there what is yemen cholera what i don't even understand the words is that is that what you say to someone when you're telling them to ask a girl yeah man cholera. come do you want is to die the babies in the reactor now. god we can do a second do for law and go this week trumps former campaign manager paul man of fort was found guilty of tax evasion and bank fraud and trump's lawyer michael cohen pleaded guilty to campaign finance violations in arranging hush money with porn stars so while this doesn't have anything to do with the russia gate hysteria

it seems increasingly likely that trump and his friends may be corrupt con men. you know and i find that really hard to admit because as you know if you watch the show a bunch i am not allowed to criticize donald trump and. never a comment about all of his corruption so this really makes me look pretty foolish but corrupt fraudster non entity one the twenty six thousand election by insulting people on twitter when you have an administration and a military industrial complex this corrupt like we do sometimes or corruption starts to conflict with each other i recently covered the corruption of the trumpet ministries have done a lot in the past few weeks have called them disgusting i've called them greedy bastards i've called them a bucket a with an i.q. of half a block you know this is why corruption looks like.
