and a former f.b.i. agent is sentenced to four years in prison for leaking classified information. he had hoped his revelations would make a difference. it's ten o'clock here in moscow and you're watching all t. international live from last year with me in india today a very warm welcome to the program. saudi arabia has a finally admitted that a journalist who went missing over a fortnight ago in turkey died in what they described as a fistfight inside a consulate in istanbul riyadh has already sacked two senior officials and arrested eighteen others linked to the case but german chancellor angela merkel is demanding further clarification from the saudis over what happened press freedom group reporters without. this is also calling for sustained international pressure to

establish the incident played out the explanation provided by riyadh was quickly dismissed as improbable and sparked an intense backlash from journalists and politicians as well it also contradicts earlier claims that she left the consulate shortly after arriving there are calls now for the gulf monarchy to bear full responsibility for what happened u.s. president donald trump says he is satisfied with the latest account. the discussions that took place with the citizen jamal khashoggi during his presence in the consulates of the kingdom in istanbul by the suspects did not go as required and developed in a negative way to a fight in a quarrel between some of them and the citizen jamal khashoggi liberal aggravated to lead to his death and their attempt to conceal and cover what happened. i do i do i mean it's again it's early we haven't really sure we view or investigation.

i think it's a very important first step and it happened sooner than people thought it would happen fifty nine year old jamal khashoggi had lived in the u.s. for the past year working as a washington post columnist is thought years prior he had been close to the saudi monarchy but was later critical of crown prince mohammed bin solomon's policies she had also join attention to the women's rights and the war in yemen he entered the saudi consulate in istanbul on october the second to pick up a document for his upcoming wedding shortly after his disappearance turkey announced it had video and audio records of the journalist alleged killing by a saudi hip team that still hasn't been made public when the case first gained global attention president trump threatened with a severe punishment but that appears not to include scrapping the multi-billion dollar arms contracts between the gulf and washington. great ally

but what happened is not acceptable but i would prefer that we don't you. can see hundred billion dollars worth of work they are ordering military equipment everybody in the world one of the russia wanted it china wanted it we wanted it we got it and we are all of it every bit of it i don't like stopping massive amounts of money that's being poured into our country spending one hundred ten billion dollars on military equipment in order. to create jobs create jobs. for this country live now steve malzberg a t.v. host and political commentator good to have you on the program again steve now. and this story is certainly gripped the international community hasn't the sides now describe what's happened in the consulate as a quarrel and brawl that led to death what do you think about the incident do you

think it's been sugarcoated or does it really look like it took weeks to establish what happened. well i don't think that it's a plausible explanation at all it's one man against one sixty year old man against several other men no matter what kind of quarrel could have developed i mean he was unarmed and nobody made the claim that he had a gun or he was threatening people with some kind of weapon so how he would stop dead in a quarrel is ridiculous of course it's being sugarcoated it's and it's an absurd explanation the fact that they took all this time to come up with something and that's the best they could come up with is rather pathetic i think i mean what we've seen we've seen all sorts of reactions really unsign and says well in the last few weeks the west you know they they've threatened severe consequences but at the same time we saw in a clip earlier donald trump saying they want to fact he doesn't want it to affect

that multibillion dollar deal what do you think those severe consequences are going to be. i think they'll be sanctions individual sanctions more likely than sanctions against the entire country of saudi arabia and i got to say not withstanding that i think this is all a tick you list explanation i don't i'm not favoring ending diplomatic relations with saudi arabia i'm not favoring severe sanctions against saudi arabia if you took a vote of the american public right now and said hey either we sanction them to death or and you pay seven dollars a gallon of gas or we don't really sanction that tough what do you think the american public is going to say we don't want to pay seven dollars a gallon of gas that's a possibility but perhaps more importantly saudi arabia has become a key ally with the united states against iran and we cannot

discard saudi arabia and hand over the middle east to the uranium as we just cannot do that and the saudis have an established a closer relationship with israel and iran is a common enemy their key player in the fight against terrorism i add they provide a lot of money coming into this country so look hillary clinton the clinton foundation took twenty million dollars from the saudis over the years where the saudis angel they've been you know it's against the law to be gay they treat women like garbage i mean this is been going on for years i think that the media is making this into something because i mean it is it's horrible but because donald trump is president and no matter what he does they get to attack donald trump and say he didn't do the right thing there are even saying that he is responsible for the death because of the tone he said it's all about going after trump. well if we go back to the case you know riyadh has admitted the fact that he has died

surely they should be giving more details for example whether. i'm the stanton arsenal that requesting that the location be given a rule to know what do you think should have axed. well i don't even i don't even know i mean you know turkey keeps telling us they have already you know in video tape of the first they said already you had video now they say audio they claimed that pompei of the secretary of state of the us heard it he said no. nobody has come forth with this audiotape the how how they could not know again talk about cause disability how they could not know where the body is because they gave it to a third party in turkey i mean. the whole thing smells you know what probably happened what we heard originally through the grapevine they probably chopped off gotten out of boxes and disintegrated the body with acid or shipped it off to saudi arabia who knows i don't think we're ever going to see that body those remains i

severely doubt it it's a horrible horrible thing but from a u.s. standpoint it's not enough to sever relations with the country that we need to work with against iran i mean it is improved in politics as in this case and you know as if it couldn't become a big disaster the side of things but you know politicians activists and. demanding from riyadh in terms of an explanation could this become an even bigger disaster for them yeah it certainly could if you it remains to be seen how the prince mohammed bin some and comes out in all this because supposedly one of the top security people who was in that embassy was at the closest of friends and with that with the prince you know the prince is the quote unquote reformer not so much really he's cracked down tremendously but well the king penalize the prince the

prince is very close with the trumpet ministration it's going to really have to sort itself out and it's going to very interesting to see how it does play out yes certainly is steve malzberg t.v. has some political content to thank you as a with the coming into the program. artie's going underground host after she returns he spoke to a friend of jamal khashoggi who says the journalist expected to be arrested. always insisted until the day he died and i had a discussion with them only hours before he disappeared he insisted he wasn't an opposition member against the war family he was just a critic of some of the policies adopted by the crown prince he was very anxious that the country was taking a turn into what is worse he was he was afraid or he was concerned about its future that's why he wrote what he wrote of he was never

a member of the opposition he knew if he went back. he would have been arrested and probably sent behind bars like that like some of his other friends. now around fifteen hundred a belgian place officers have called in sick on mass there protesting having to work extra hours caused by staff shortages as well as reforms to that pensions. to the police to the police motorcycle units from. brussels is reinforced some issues with all of them called indiscernible toxicity as we found out the prime minister even had to go in with the army he.

will do this in the all in the police or severely understaffed and we've been talking about that for many months now the interior minister is also mulling reforms that play collectively be an attack on the status of police officers. so more just recently another police officer was killed in the. last week and two more were badly injured in a shootout people didn't hesitate to open the foreign office.

we ask questions but we don't get answers they say we're lazy and just give you the the minister has no facts to back up your claim that happen for all the time and we're sick and tired of it. at least twenty eight have been killed and one hundred injured in several blast that rocked the afghan capital saturday's parliamentary election. has the details in couple. it was quite tense day for afghan security because of provinces. they were highly attacked and there have been. one thousand eight hundred security threats many of them have been prevented by afghan security forces two hundred and ninety two attacks carried out by militants across the country that killed dozens of

people including civilians and police forces also afghan national army members the deadliest was in kabul as well as in north and battle on province in kabul a suicide bomber targeted at polling center in northen part of the city and killed over a dozen people including police forces most of the attacks were actually very very big they were magnetic bombs planted explosives. especially against or nearby the polling stations and taliban did claim responsibility saying that they have carried out over four hundred attacks across the country they have been saying that the afghan government is not an illegitimate government so they do not recognize the afghan government as

a legitimate government that's why they claim that this is a puppet government and people should not. justify to empower the process that is according to the taleban is an american or a western process we still have to wait and see what will happen next because the election process has been extended by the independent election commission for the next day which is tomorrow. people were hopeful and they had a very big turnout early in the morning became an hour before the election started but later after a couple of hours when there was a delay there were several technical issues the presents of the. election. staff were not visible. many hours in many polling stations that's why. you know during the large time we many

people actually went home. to central london now where over six hundred thousand protesters have gathered to demand a second referendum vote and march was organized by the people's vote campaign who say this protest could be the biggest anti bragg said action yet some people have traveled from all around the country take part in the valley a separate program rally was held in hurricane to the north by former u.k. . british prime minister theresa may has dismissed calls for a second referendum on bragg's it however some m.p.'s have voiced support for the protests the u.k. voted to leave by a narrow margin in twenty sixteen with the deadline for london's official divorce from brussels set for march next year. crimea is still trying to come to terms with the shooting at

a college that the story admiral after this break. the grim reaper of the bond market has appeared with this with this guy and he's looking at the global bond market he's got. this obama apocalypse it's a tsunami that paper and it's. going to be the greatest collapse ever. i did the war planning for the principal force provider command in the united

states military or for years i've worked on this region for years i do not understand this saudi arabia is the greatest state sponsor of terrorism in the world still today and yet we all here on that we lie when we say that we right blatantly lie when we say that moreover we know we're. back to the program in crime in grieving friends and relatives have sent their final goodbyes to the victims of a gunman who opened fire on fellow students at a college in the city of catch but amid the pain stories have a measure of heroic quick thinking actions which prevented more deaths.

courage is a quiet place a small seaside town kind of place where the neighborhoods everyone knows everyone it is one of the last places in the world where you would expect a school or college shooting or thought they did but some hatreds evidently buried too deep because i stalk you it's so common music very common tragedy our town is really small everyone knows each other the blast and the following rampage with catastrophic injuries and killing dozens upon dozens. of people sparking panic and his styria as teenagers and stuff fled for their lives . in that chaos heroes were made. my friend manning seen was there he helped his friend corner who was

injured in the blast he covered him to shield him from the bullets they're both in hospital now one has a shop and winning team is paralyzed nobody knows whether he will be able to walk again but from the horrors of this massacre some good has emerged selflessness sacrifice courage and bravery teenagers barely older than children acted as few adults ever cool but it got the better of course if you're going to they were personally is students when this happened these guys were thrown rocks a good sign they were trying to distract him because behind his back there was a group of kids mostly girls trying to escape so the boys decided to divert the suit is the time some to help the girls these four boys are dead now that you're. sitting here i serve girl i knew them on the wounded i try to. save her i carried her to the ambulance i left her there and went to help the others i saw

a lot of people bleeding land on benches it was awful. about. me out of it in my hands i saw a guy being attacked i try to help him but it was too late then i saw my friend something was wrong with his legs he couldn't walk so i dragged him all the way to the ponce. the mushy it is now you will never know every accept heroism and kindness that took place last now in the confusion the adrenaline the modesty and in death but it wasn't just the students it was also bystanders volunteers and good samaritans. said i work nearby when i heard what happened i came here to help anyone i could see there were people without limbs just lying on the street everyone tried to help more just to get more stuff. when the wounded began to overwhelm local

clinics the medical students jumped in to help. them but when it happened we were at our medical college we were in class when a teacher stormed in and said they need people to help with the injured so we rushed to the hospital we had no time to even put our lab coats on we started to take people out of the ambulances for emergency help people just kept on coming for several hours it's fair to say that when the killer struck the stuff the students were utterly unprepared it's also fair to say that no amount of readiness in the world would prepare any sort of school for an explosion that size in the cafeteria or mania. through a car do it but even amidst all the confusion the panic. dear there with those set aside self-preservation in order to help others risking life.

once again even in acts of. evil speech for good. a former f.b.i. agent who worked in the u.s. state of minnesota has pleaded guilty to classified information to the media he says he wanted to make a difference but the court found his leaks about alleged abuse of power a threat to national security than hawkins explains. a veteran of the agency an impeccable service record three years from retirement now charged tried and found guilty for whistle blowing the only black asians in the f.b.i. as minneapolis field office to a real war he grew uneasy over his seventeen year career he says he saw discrimination racial profiling rule bending and abuse of power by the agency he

felt the public needed to know i truly wanted to make a difference and never intended to put anyone in danger the f.b.i. and caught saw things differently tried under the espionage act he was branded a traitor who put national security at risk isn't the first whistleblower to face the wrath of author or tease edward snowden chelsea manning are two of the best known in recent years but this case was slightly different terry allbery was charged with the leak of just two documents to the media and retaining another focusing on methods used by the f.b.i. supporters claim the only damage caused was not to national security but the egos of all thora g.'s the u.s. attorney general has made things clear amongst the crackdown on leaks and whistleblowers the risk of exposing perceived wrongdoing and injustice is higher than ever we are conducting perhaps the most. aggressive campaign against leaks in department history crimes like the one committed by the defendant in this case will

not be tolerated they will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and punished and it seems for now whatever the motive alleged racism or spying lawbreaking or corruption whistleblowers larkhall bori will face the tough choice of trusting their conscience or risking everything. what is happening with mr allbery is in a chilling effect throughout the entire f.b.i. throughout the entire federal bureaucracy that if you league you are going to go to prison and you've got to go to prison for a very long time any type of harsh punishment all is. others in a similar situation twice before they hack the question is. is the actions of the f.b.i. in this current troubled ministration going to be something that people can be

quiet about all of the action and the of all the other federal bureaucracies are going to be able to be. given the large amount of corruption that is going on. to check us out online of course across social media are they back at the top of the next. it's the kaiser reports. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the u.s. has over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crime chappie each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you want to be all for the rich eight point six percent market so thirty percent is what is your home with four hundred to five hundred three per second per second and one rose to twenty thousand dollars

. china's building two point one billion dollars a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need remembering what one doesn't show you can't afford to miss the one and only. north korea's history of this to be seventeen years we are one of the very few countries that has seventy years of history of diplomatic relationship with them we are. you know nuclear free status country and this policy is working for us and we're trying to communicate you know this denuclearized you know situation may contribute much spitzer to their security then the. nuclear you know progress it's a few. cracking

gave americans a lot of new job opportunities i needed to come up here to make some money i could make twenty five thousand dollars as a teacher or i could make fifty thousand dollars a year truck so i chose to drive truck people rush to a small town in north dakota was an unemployment rate of zero percent like gold rush is very very similar. but this beautiful story ended with pollution and devastation a lot of people have left here i don't know too many people here and just slow down so much they lost their jobs got laid off the american dream is changing that's not what it used to be. and it's a tough reality to deal. and

i'm exerciser this is the kaiser report the show that goes where no show dares to go and they come back again and they go back. yes we've continued to stay in vegas we have not left i don't know if we'll ever leave but we're still here and the party continues here in vegas it's always a party but the q-q. party is over i mean ever heard of i think. it's yes no it's qualitative and quantitative easing has been happening in japan but that party is. talking on it nobody has noticed this except for wall street dot com they notice that the party's over everybody's been talking about the fed doing that quantitative tightening they're starting to ease back i think it's something like their balance sheet shrunk by two hundred eighty five billion dollars over in japan

where they've had something like thirty years of quantitative easing and then they . came along and they jumped it up to q q qualitative and quantitative economic easing q e party is drying up even at the bank of japan despite repeated speeches to the contrary as of september thirtieth total assets on the bank of japan's elephant time balance sheet dropped by five point four trillion yen which is thirty three billion dollars from a month earlier to five hundred thirty seven trillion yen or four point eight seven trillion dollars four point seven trillion dollars is the bank of japan's balance sheet and they said it was the fourth month over month decline and a series that started in december this is what that looks like here's.
