attention's are certainly seeing an opportunity to school points. i've been watching for weeks as the caravan came up i'm not letting them in and not coming here and they're not coming and. everyone in this room is an immigrant you know who in the white house and so a little bit of a different picture talking about this care of the care of. there has been assured. immigration recently caravan of a. group of protestors ministration official say they're working as efficiently and as effectively as possible it doesn't give them any necessity when they dropped off the bus station. shows you the challenges the trouble. in dealing with the crisis they inherited from the obama administration who got a free pass from the media on causing this crisis what happened to the democratic
5:07 am
party as one said bill clinton president obama understood that border security helps define a country. better secure. than straight this is a moral and humanitarian crisis we simply cannot allow people to poor into the united states. undocumented. president obama he writes immigration can be a controversial topic my administration acted to lift the shadow of deportation from these young people and we are a better country than one that shares families apart we turned it into a great political football and people are still all kinds of political opponents. did president obama really poured more people than any other president in total president obama had more than two point five million undocumented people by twenty .
5:08 am
immigration because how does the political issue when there is obviously a policy on the table or are some ships going out of this chapter particularly that are being on both sides and i think when we get you know it doesn't eat away to. start a vital election huge uprising. you know i think there's no question it's how what the average you know kind of rhetoric along the road you know last have were not just those people going to the next time that. i grow chemical giant monsanto is facing accusations that paid tens of thousands of euros to enlist the support of farmers across europe to lobby against a ban on one of its pesticides greenpeace also says monsanto set up fake farmers groups to promote the benefits of the product that is out he's shot to do explains
5:09 am
some of their members are in fact very real. an investigation carried out by greenpeace says it's uncovered some startling truths about how monsanto a company taurus for its controversial range of weed killer this has been lurking will being its interests in the investigation alleges that hundreds of thousands of euros were spent in creating fake farmers groups to promote the main chemical found in monsanto those products so fake fall muzz fake groups at least that's according to greenpeace but when ot see a little bit closer something didn't quite smell right greenpeace say that this lobby group in france isn't real but we ought to search for the people behind the names we have earthed real as you say. it's fake news it's not good it's not true i'm real and i know other members that are real farmers
5:10 am
who work every day i'm not fake i'm not a ghost i'm a real. farmer i'm passionate about my work we asked greenpeace to detail why they believe the farmers were fake despite giving the organization five days to respond greenpeace said it didn't have the capacity to get back to us as staff was swamped so the farmers a definitely flesh and bone but who's behind this organization supporting the chemical is it the new tourists monsanto dinny isn't sure why but you tube is really good if i can list the companies as i don't know them by heart but i understand why the industry and its farmers defend themselves everybody criticizes monsanto i don't want to defend them monsanto produces very little of the glyphosate in the world it's other countries and companies that produce the most. nice says he cares about the land this land his product so why does he use
5:11 am
a product that's been labeled as toxic to aquatic life and is described as a probable human carcinogen by the international agency for research on cancer. although all the other and now assists in tests we're talking about eight hundred studies in the world confirm that this product is not dangerous why do we use glide for sait because it's practical because we use very diluted amounts you want to punish us by removing it while it's not considered dangerous. in a landmark ruling a judge in the u.s. awarded a former groundskeeper thirty nine million dollars after he developed cancer following exposure to the company's weed killer saying monsanto had failed to warn him of the risks monsanto denies the product causes cancer some countries aren't sold on the safety of the chemical and have already restricted its use but the pharma we talked
5:12 am
to is worried that a ban on the weed killer will do more harm than good. if. we shouldn't forget that see if we're the only country just stop using it we will be disadvantaged the primary task of carbon emissions will increase will need to work the soil more and overuse the equipment more work hours instead of a little dose of driver seat which allows us to make the work easier and we shouldn't forget about that when a pharmaceutical group which now owns monsanto has dismissed claims that the chemical in question is carcinogenic despite repeated warnings made by the world health organization on this very issue and i go cultural expert we spoke to says the chemicals impact may only become evident over time. you know you don't see. animals and plants keeling over and dying. in an immediate manner the problems are related to much more subtle effects on ecosystems and on
5:13 am
human health that are linked to the sheer amount of blind society that is being used and i believe it is essential that more research is done the science is not clear but to turn around and say that the use of. contending how decides it does not sit with the overall science. still to come here on the program on the delegation of syrian opposition forces is set to meet with the russian foreign minister here in moscow inside twenty four hours about just. after world war two we ruled the world we have the most gold we have this down this currency we low interest rates and we were american century ready to
5:14 am
go. like the awful good lottery winner that blows it all here we are twenty eight having kind of well. you know world of big partisan. and conspiracies it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door. and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching.
5:15 am
it is good to have you with us today for the program and the syrian opposition forces is set to meet with russian foreign minister. that will be right here in moscow on friday now the situation in syria's province will ultimately top the agenda of the talks the two sides will also discuss the launch of a constitution committee for syria and this is seen as a key step towards finding a political solution to the crisis in the country now after seven years of war even . remaining militant stronghold in the country there are an estimated thirty thousand there including ten thousand terrorists and that's according to the united nations a deadline for militants to pull out of a buffer zone around the province imposed. was recently extended to roughly three million civilians living on
5:16 am
a daily basis many of them continue to flee. if you think of it we were living in a camp life was difficult there was no eight no bread no water and everything was scarce the situation was terribly bad well after the second there is barely any shelter in winter and in summer you would suffer from the heat that was our life just. like dominick still director of operations of the international committee of the red cross has just returned from eastern guta a full but militant stronghold recently regained by the syrian government. just returned from eastern court yesterday and. i have to say i was completely overwhelmed by the scope of destruction in eastern i think i have never
5:17 am
seen anything like this in my twenty seven years of career based international committee of the red cross the scale of the needs starts with it starts to emerge and definitely there will be a need for huge support for all the people who are living there in these areas affected by conflict as well as for those who are returning eastern. suburb of damascus. or approximately three even more than three million people who used to live there and now it's only three hundred fifty thousand and. the place where i was nearly ninety percent of the infrastructure is completely destroyed you see entire neighborhoods that are at the steroid houses that are become have become completely unlivable. is what i was talking about the people who are back
5:18 am
and people who are living there they can fend for themselves some of the basic needs we are distributing food on a daily basis together with the syrian arab red crescent what is now absolutely critical is to ensure that these people can regain access to some basics are such as water sanitation hales and here there is still a lot to do and again together with the syrian arab red crescent see he's making a very serious contribution. well. particularly concerned about the possibility of escalation. of violence in that there are up to three million people living in this province. would simply result in a humanitarian disaster so very grateful for all the efforts that have taken place
5:19 am
in the past few months and hopefully we'll continue to avoid escalation in lead because as i said this would result in a very very serious humanitarian disaster. the whole war that has been watching the syria conflict for a force for seventy years and we have all known for a very long time that this is and continues to be the war conflict that we see very very long and yet there doesn't appear to be sufficient political convergence to bring this conflict to an end so i truly hope that we now see the end of that we will now see the end of this conflict so that humanitarian aid can finally reach all the people of syria who are sold desperately longing for
5:20 am
peace and need to be supported for a long time to come we definitely do all we can to convince. all those who are supporting the humanitarian effort in syria to continue supporting the people of syria as i said if anything needs are just going to grow in the coming months and years and really. as far as the i.c.r.c. use concerned to continue our effort at the same level as in the past few years because now people are also are all all also getting more accessible and therefore we can do more and we absolutely need to make sure that we can maintain the humanitarian effort at the levels of the previous years. so thursday

5:23 am
a promise after the fall of the soviet union that it would not go in to not send nato into the warsaw pact countries or the former soviet countries and today it's in thirteen of those countries so it never abided by that pact and this is clearly an aggressive move on. part of the united states and nato would in my opinion. in about twenty five minutes we were talking with more of your thoughts their program here when r.t. international hope you can join us then. join me every thursday on the elec simon short and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm showbusiness i'll see you then.

5:28 am
i am asked to answer this is the kaiser report one one thousandth part cherokee. station we all are max we all are in fact i have a headline here up up up up up and way that is the u. s. deficit the us government paid a whopping five hundred twenty three billion us dollars and interest in fiscal twenty eight eighteen here's a chart going back to zero nine hundred eighty eight which is quite interesting you see that the interest that we pay annually on our debt is rising rising rising despite interest rates going down that whole time we're still paying more and more every year which goes against what everybody always says oh all these debts are manageable because interest rates are so low yeah well you know america is like a guy who won the lottery and blows it after world war two we ruled the world we
5:29 am
have the most gold we have the sound of the currency we have low interest rates and we were american century ready to go and like the profit lottery winner blows it all here we are in twenty eighteen having kind of blown it we have too much debt twenty one trillion in debt and the interest on that debt is that as you point out something like a half a trillion dollars annually which is getting close to the annual budget deficit which may well actually the budget deficit annually is two hundred billion dollars more than that five hundred billion dollars is about what we pay for say medicare so it's the equivalent of taking care of the health of all the elderly people in america right there just interest not just interest on the debt so when the interest on it. on that gets to a point where your money printing ponzi scheme that is a federal reserve bank fails you then enter a currency collapse you enter
5:30 am
a hyper inflationary venezuelan type currency collapse and of course the american ego will tell you that that's impossible here in the land of the free home of the brave you know empires come and go ok let's look at one thing i want to point out that we went off the gold standard in one thousand nine hundred eighty one so in a way i don't blame anybody who runs america for just doing this because why not people are sending you their real goods and services for free essentially so why not rack up these huge debts plus we have to rack up huge debts although wise you can't maintain the us dollar is the world's reserve currency so if the rest of the globe based on us sending all our manufacturing sending our wealth overseas in order for them to grow the economy globally to grow trade globally to grow the only way that can happen is if we send more and more die.
