general security directorate told reuters that when there is no longer a big military battles in syria many young men will return meaning those young male syrian refugees around the world the very ones that were painted as terrorists and a risk we're the ones trying to refrain from killing in the name of endless war but well refugees ponder the future u.s. white house national security adviser john bolton seems to make it clear that the united states and its allies aren't getting out of syria any time soon even if isis is defeated telling reporters at the u.n. general assembly quote we're not going to leave as long as a rainy and troops are outside arabian borders and that includes our radio and proxies and militias which might be one of the reasons why the russian military as to has announced that they will be providing syria with eight s. three hundred missile defense systems after a recent accident with the israeli air force which caused the deaths of fifteen russian airmen so as the united nations general assembly kicks off and leaders from around the world cite the war of words the innocent victims of war never stop
2:31 am
watching the hogs. you. want to go to. the for. real that this was. a luxury for the plot of. the day like you are going to. sleep which we. would. welcome everybody to watch i am top of the lalas and joining me from minnesota is my dear let's just tyrrel ventura and from here in d.c. i'd like to welcome former pentagon official michael maloof to help us make sense of the hawking going on welcome. and michael maloof.
2:32 am
you know i got to just say very quickly you know that's awful bold talk from mr bolton who you know decided that the vietnam war wasn't going to worth it going into when it was his time to serve in and hid out from the maryland you know hid out in the maryland machinable guard back in one thousand and seventy rather a lot of bold talk from mr bolton but michael i want to jump over and begin with you and ask you amos yadlin the executive director of tel aviv university's institute for national security studies he posted this comment on twitter earlier you said the supply of s. three hundred increases the risk from unprofessional syrian operators to russia's air force's first and foremost to israel to the united states and the coalition and likewise to civil aviation mike i want to ask you how is the sale of these defense systems of threat to israel and how does it show escalation on the part of russia and syria as so many are claiming and arguing well the s. three hundred are
2:33 am
a much more advanced system then the us to hundreds that the syrians now have i think basically has created a de facto no fly zone with respect to israeli surprise attacks into syria at least for the time mean and it's not going to necessarily be the syrians who will be manning those s three hundred being a a much more advanced system than the s two hundred it probably will be russians and that's one of the things that i think would be of concern to the israelis if they sought to attack those missile systems if they want to go after targets inside of syria so that's why this is a this is really a confrontational move it's i think it's going to cause the israelis to pause before they do anything as bold as they as they have in the past and and i think that the next russian plane that shot down i think there will be a response from russia. michael iran and. that is states haven't had
2:34 am
a working relationship diplomatically as we spoke about at nine hundred seventy nine and despite many of the revelations that we've had over the last twenty thirty forty years that a lot of the information fed to the american people regarding iran has been incomplete at best and bold face lie is that worse i mean look at the cia and am i six literally orchestrating a coup and nine hundred fifty two what are we as civilians miss saying about this threat from iran that makes it worth all of these lives all of this money all of this effort that we have spent what is that risk from the rand that john bolton is so terrified well it's not necessarily a threat coming from iran iran is no threat to the united states what it is however is a threat to israel and israel's and anything having to do with israeli foreign policy is interwoven into u.s. foreign policy and i when i was at the pentagon up to two thousand two thousand and
2:35 am
three we would say that israel would. have an approach but the u.s. would carry it out would do its dirty work for him and we saw this in baghdad again in two thousand and three i briefed bold and he basically said we're going to take baghdad then damascus then tehran libya and saudi arabia all countries at that time that were enemies of israel today move forward fast forward now and what we're seeing really is both revisited he's coming he's come back and this actually accentuate something which is becoming increasingly serious you have a trump foreign policy because he doesn't want to be in syria but you have a trumpet ministration foreign policy which is being run now by the neo cons such as bolton pompei o the secretary of state and nikki haley and and now you have giuliani if you heard do giuliani the other day had a a. yeah the rain calling for the overthrow of.
2:36 am
the government of iran and bolton is in talking similar saying similar things. you know it's interesting because refugees have been you as political pawns in the syrian conflict with world leaders going so far as to ban them from entering you know their nations including the trump administration here in the united states even bashar al assad confirmed the yahoo news last year that terrorists were hiding themselves amongst the refugees despite that no syrian refugee has committed in the act of terror in the united states michael how are refugees and weapons sales used to further political reform in countries like syria and is it a dangerous game to do so and to play this this game with these refugees well the refugees are as you say just pawns they are. they they are the front end excuse for
2:37 am
the united states to try and use more of a humanitarian argument to be in places such as syria and elsewhere in the middle east but make no mistake the united states has lost tremendous influence since the arab spring and it's trying to regain its influence back there again and it's faltering russia has in effect filled that vacuum and we see it even in iraq where the united states has sought to go back to iraq and it's losing its influence there as well to iran of all places and so this is us is really trying to get back to where it was back in two thousand and three under john bolton's guidance as i see it because he's really trying to reach restate us foreign policy and it's not trump who's in charge of his foreign policy he's basically isolated and he is basically isolated in terms of trying to initiate his own foreign policy for example when he better relations with with. a lot of recruiting wanted to get out of syria wanted
2:38 am
to meet with the with rouhani and as soon as he said that and he said unconditionally and soon as he said that less than a half hour later he had the state department come in them with a list of about twelve conditions which were met to defeat that notion because iran would never buy into those so it's clearly. the these are pawns the refugees are pawns the weapons systems are pawns in order to gain for the united states to stay there and for the united states then to say in syria that it's plans to stay because even though it hasn't been invited was never invited and it's taking up all of eastern syria it means basically that the policy that's evolving from the us at this point appears to be a de facto partition of syria itself. and now when we take over eastern syria that means we're working with the kurds that then brings in the turks and the turks do not want to have anything to do with the kurds because they regarded miss terrorist
2:39 am
but the united states is cozying up to the kurds so that in effect within the bride and all that area on the border with turkey it could potentially mean that turkey and the united states could have a confrontation if the decision is made to by assad and by. putin to. take back there. one of the most important if not the most important killers of western society is the rule of law and the equal application of the law this is now being put into down we are told it is the court of credibility that rules whatever that means is the cabinet nomination again. the old saying you know we need to go back to invite more force that's position that's also the position of the guys that are. close in any case even though
2:40 am
there is a number of options they will have to go back to the to the country. the food. the war on drugs has managed to ignore the worst offenders on the planet big pharma
2:41 am
and while there is need for oversight of the things that are on the market being marketed as a cure what happens when a cure doesn't fit into the guy had lions of the federal drug administration and it threatens the profit margins of pharmaceutical manufacturers that's where stem cells come in the controversial practicing of using stem cells for treatment is something dr mark berman is a huge proponent up and that work has meant a lot of trouble for the doctor and others looking to up then the nearly half a trillion and dollar annual business big pharma does in the u.s. johnstone sat down with dr berman to find out more. dr hirmand thank you for joining me today my pleasure xan i will want to talk with you about what i consider to be the most dangerous drug racket in america which is actually not from the illegal drug side but actually the legal side of things which is to say that big pharma. controlling basically our access to drugs and basically prescribe basically prescribing certain drugs that can be quite dangerous and then basically government
2:42 am
bans others that might be actually quite healthy helpful so. yes the nation what is the danger of the big pharma racket well i'm right in the middle of the storm as you might know we're doing something with your own body parts your own cells making personal cell therapy available and yet we have the big pharma f.d.a. on top of us and part of the problem is if you look at everybody's motivation for what we do we are motivated want to make a few dollars ok but how do you do it i've got a very basic way of living i have to take care of patients and try to get them better yeah of academia who is in there trying to develop new techniques and things but they really are into research and they have pharma who really has to make a living making money and so they have to mass produce a product and sell to and as many people as possible and what's their goal to keep selling a product so alternately if you think about it their goal is to keep you. maybe
2:43 am
symptomatically healthier and better but never really necessary to cure you in fact you know there's a company hard vone who developed a medication that can cure hepatitis b. they made like twelve billion dollars a year or two ago now this year is four billion and soon it will be no billion because if they cure hepatitis b. they're out of business right so that's that's pretty frightening actually to think that you know the agenda then it becomes well that company. he becomes a failure even though from a from a. perspective of healing it's a huge success exactly so you have a huge success in a failing company so that ideally suppose you have parkinson's if i could give you back certain number of cells of your own stem cells and actually improve you and cure you that's not a good business model but if i can give you pills that you have to take for the next six years until you die and you spend thousands of dollars a year you've got
2:44 am
a great business model so there's a there's a built in. business model that's not really necessarily great for the public even though i will admit there's a lot of great pharmaceutical products that are necessary for us absolutely so let's talk about what you're working on which is the stem cell side of things because essentially we you know a lot of us to get came of age a time when we heard about stem cells from the relationship of abortion for example aborted fetuses and george bush was president basically not if you want to ban stem cell research but now we've come to a different place in terms of realizing that stem cells don't have to be taken from baby fetuses that we can actually take them from all types of places so where where does stem cells in your research come from and what do they offer for helping helping us well so it turns out bush did unleash about two hundred sixty one strains of embryonic stem cells which were the foundation for all the research on stem cells accidentally we found out that your own body had stem cells they could
2:45 am
be isolated the most common source was from bone marrow so if somebody has leukemia and they wipe out all their bone marrow they get a donor bone marrow get an injection and the bone marrow has stem cells in it which jumpstart your bone marrow which is now dead so the speak but the information is there so you can produce new you know bone marrow cells which would be white cells and so forth turns out that adipose tissue your fat is loaded with stem cells unbeknownst to us. one hundred ccs a bone marrow may yield fifty one hundred thousand stem cells while an ounce thirty c.c.'s of that might yield five to forty million stem cells is just you know ridiculous so here for years we've been sucking out fat putting it into faces trying to make people look younger now they're putting their breast and butts so they buy lots more of a lot of us and we're wasting our stem cells on these cosmetic things and so what
2:46 am
happened to me as i found out back in two thousand and eight that while you can use the stem cells for acetic purposes why don't we use them for you know therapeutic purposes because as many pretty people as we can may there's millions more with arthritis and all kinds of degenerative conditions so it turns out we can very easily extract that with a local anesthetic and then have. five to forty million stem cells available within an hour so with that you think about it every injury every disease every rule malady is a salt in your cells so what if i can have replacement parts and that's where the stem cells represent so we're now looking at a new era of medicine and we actually call it personal cell therapy it's certainly the stem cell era but you have the ability to use your own cells which is fundamentally very important originally we thought we're going to get stem cells
2:47 am
from embryos then we thought well we can get him from a bill to cord and whartons jelly placenta and other areas but even if we get them from those they're still somebody else's d.n.a. they may actually have viruses or prion diseases that these people carry with them that we don't even to attack so what if we give them from our own body i can't infect you with the stuff that's already in your body in fact what if you had hiv or hepatitis you wouldn't be eligible to make a drug out of your own cells but you could use your own cells. to heal yourself so in a real simple way every injury we have is injury to the cells and when those cells are injured they give out a signal those signals we call them cytokines they could be little bits of messenger r.n.a. which can direct our stem cells into what they need to become suppose you had a heart attack now you get all this injured heart muscle normally you heal with scar tissue because
2:48 am
a whole bunch of white blood cells go there to try to clean up the dead you know injured heart muscle and they secrete and so i'm said bring in fiberglass and form scar so when somebody has a bad heart take out a big scar they end up having congestive heart failure because they don't have enough good muscle tissue before i gave the stem cells they would go that same heart and they would get the signal and grow new heart muscle i would be looking at basically the potential to prolong human life potentially indefinitely i think you can easily and neck extra fifty seventy five years on the normal lifespan i'm sixty five years old i think i'm ten years off of my midlife crisis based on what stem cells to be able to do so you know it's it's really strange but we can really mess up the whole socio economic empires we've built right now because all of our actuarial so based on us dropping off between seventy four and you know an eighty years old something like that what if you can keep people alive
2:49 am
a lot longer who's going to pay for it who's going to be eligible to get this are you going to let everybody have it you know our society everybody thinks medicine should be free that is right now so there's some real difficult questions and so tell us a bit about what the trouble is you're facing we believe in terms of the work that you're doing and how you're being attacked basically by the empire of big pharma now so if the f.d.a. is set up to police drugs and devices and several years ago they decided that there's going to be. area of biologics particularly stem cells and we realized that if i grew a stem cell in the lab and they give it back to you that's probably a drug it's not your d.n.a. as long somebody else there's there's an onus in a burden for me to prove that the at cell works on you and it's safe for you ok so the f.d.a. then looked at our own personal cells and they said they set up these arbitrary
2:50 am
guidelines to determine when is your cell a drug what they said is if you took cells from bone marrow which is in a liquid form as long as you don't change the character of the cell then it's not a drug and you can use it so people can harvest bone marrow spin it down and give it back to you even though there's not them a stem cells is not that effective ok but they said if you take that were cells from a tissue and then you separate those cells now you change the character of the tissue therefore it's a drug if it's a drug it has to be made the same way as every other mass produced pharmaceutical and we're going well that's ridiculous first of all all we're doing is taking cells from a tissue and even in the f.d.a. guidelines that they wrote they rely on a nine hundred ninety seven guideline that says you can remove cells from drugs and separate from from tissues and separate them as always the tissue left behind same function which exact what we do do with. fat behind still fat and we just take out
2:51 am
a little sample separate the cells give them back to you however the f.d.a. now and said we're changing the character of the tissue they're forced drug but we're not changing the character of the cell in a very fundamental way if i was a pharmaceutical company i would never go to market with a product that a manufacturer and b. didn't own in this case if i take out some of your fat and separate out the cells i haven't manufactured anything i'm not changing the d.n.a. i'm not anything. to it i'm just separating yourselves so i can do in a surgical procedure words socially to select your tissue support we can do it in very ways now so we get cells you manufacture the cells and you will know it's your property why would i be responsible for going through all the steps to show that there is a drug. i needed food it would be appropriate to see upper register or some way of
2:52 am
swallowing my patients and show it safer that works. in the last century the earth access has shifted about ten and a half meters and the reason may just be us stephanie opitz explains and scientific america this week one third of the earth's wobble is due to manmade climate change in the effects of it like rising sea levels and melting ice one third is due to the upward expansion of earth's land as it reacts to the rising sea levels and the last third is due to the natural slow churn of the earth's middle layer all of this explains why the earth's axis drifts a few centimeters each year and how a new study published in the earth and planetary science letters show using computer models that determine greenland and it's melting glaciers is one of the larger contribute is to the wobble but don't worry hop watchers the wobble isn't leading to a squabble turns out it it doesn't have any effect on agriculture or climate
2:53 am
however it does must with navigational equipment but scientists say it's easy to adjust fares adjust for it does make you wonder why we aren't being more careful with the planet we are able to make wobble it's access just by doing nothing about climate change. well that's our show for you today i remember everyone in this world were not told or allowed to not so i tell you. keep on watching the hogs and have a great day and night everybody. it's
