thirty seven despite a strong push by the white house to quell the congressional uprising against the u.s. as role in the barbaric and tragic war in yemen it war that has now conservatively claimed more than five thousand civilian lives and is led to a massive cholera epidemic that is considered to be the worst cholera epidemic in human history affecting at least a million yemeni men women and children secretary of state mike pump aoe sounded off in a wall street journal op ed that the saudi regime is a powerful force spur stability in the middle east and warned us all of us that degrading us saudi ties would be a grave mistake for the national security of the u.s. and its allies yeah ya heard me right. dusted off the old vital to national security line that we've heard about one hundred thousand times before to just by just about any bloodcurdling the horrible foreign policy decision that the united states has made since i don't know what

world war two and almost right on cue with the senate vote this week was also news that according to reuters saudi arabia will indeed by lockheed martin's fifteen billion dollar missile defense system after aggressive lobbying by the administration to close the deal that included a personal call between president donald trump and the saudi king salomon. adeel let's not forget that congress themselves approved back in two thousand and seventeen because let's not forget my friends that while this recent vote by congress is a positive sign the u.s. elected officials may buy only be standing up to the saudi influence over the us government. we can't forget that cash that cash is still king on capitol hill and it's the gold that ultimately controls the whims of congress and told that changes we must always be watching the hawks. it looks like. it's what. has to do.

with the day like you that i got. was that we. would. be. pleased to. welcome everyone to watching the hawks i am tired robot and time talent and shining us today to discuss the political implications of the recent saudi vote and here in the us and beyond us conservative commentator and show favorite steve malzberg he didn't say if thank you guys for having me of good things he's doing you know i mean you may not see eye to eye on a lot of things politically but the saudi u.s. kind of fighter manager relationship going on in regards to yemen is something i think that we can both agree needs to be reevaluated especially given the human catastrophe we're seeing inside the middle east porous country i can we agree than

that but at least we need to step back and re-evaluate that relationship well i don't think so because you could if it were just to it is swore engineered by the saudis for their own nefarious purposes and there was in a another player. in the mix called a rain a red help to. overthrow a duly elected president and you know what ordinarily i wouldn't care what goes on in that part of the world with that i mean if they were i don't care but it's a ran a red and it was their claws everywhere in the middle east and beyond the biggest supporter of terrorism around the world and the biggest threat to peace and stability in the middle east who daily say they're going to the united states and annihilate israel and they iran have what is what is united so many countries to come together against

a common enemy and you can't let them just take over yemen and have yet another place to park their proxies steve are going to do you see iran is hiding under your bed when you go to sleep at night i mean it sounds like good deeds and i see the irony that has. i see them as i see them in hezbollah i see what they do i see the threats they make against us all the time the iranian government is a bad government it's an evil government but being so bad and evil and trying to take over yemen which is a very poor country i'm curious are the or rainy bombing all of these these women and children and young men and entire places are they the ones giving them cholera i'm confused because i thought it was saudi bombs i thought were the. but they were waiting and made him do it they have reigning in helped overthrow the duly elected president they teamed with the we're now doing

a lot of the come on there is until you're already president anywhere when someone like saudi arabia or the united states go as and says well we're going to do a regime change so it's ok when one has enough money in their pocket but it's not when i mean because to me it looks the same either way it's terrorism it's just one side has more money than the other. well and the who does law have launched several rick many rockets over the past several months into saudi arabia and today the united states displayed iranian weapons that have been used in in yemen and in afghanistan these are reigning in weapons that's what they do and their experts do it it's all syrian those weapons being thrown in the us weapons that we sold to saudi arabia being dropped into yemen so we can certainly say of a one sided using one one group's weapons is just as bad or worse than the other side using the other side's good words i think what we all can agree on is that we need to see an end to the conflict there and we need to see what's wrong with that

these allegations that or something that happened you know and my pump a you know said yesterday in trying to convince the senate not to go ahead with this resolution that we're getting closer to peace talks and this will just throw a whole monkey wrench into it and it all and any chance for peace talks and the only reason guys and i'm sure you know and i'm sure will get to this that we're even talking about this is because of his show he if it weren't for his shogi this wouldn't even be on the radar the senate would never act this by itself never well i will say this about we wouldn't be talking about yemen because i will say that tyrrell and i on this show and before have been talking about the war in yemen since it started you know i met a senator. that is going to talk about it but like there hasn't been any media the media has turned a blind eye to it let's talk a little bit about the arms deal because it's interesting that this week alongside the senate we also saw saudi arabia agree it's a buy fifteen billion dollars worth of lockheed martin missile defense system and

that not only the trumpet ministration pushed for but congress just last year was more than happy to approve it so you know it's great that they're saying we'll have a vote to talk about it and have a debate but should we expect anything actually of substance to come from this vote or is it just. grandstanding you know all of it just seems like grandstanding oh it's all the iranians oh well there's money oh national security are we going to get anything out of this or i just think i thought he really is unpopular in the press. well i think that's the reason but i think you will get something out of this unfortunately in my view i think you will get mandated to u.s. involvement in the war in yemen you will get that that doesn't mean the war is going to stop and it certainly has nothing to do with purchasing selling arms to saudi arabia and keeping them as a close ally but you will get that you will get

a senate resolution that will. dictate that we got to get. theoretically the heck out of yemen i mean every that to me is a good first step because look i am one of those people that believe that we don't need we don't have any business over there helping saudi arabia drop bombs on people we don't have any business having our kind of claws into so many different areas around the world that we're either selling weapons to or pushing for regime change by a backdoor method of using another country to do it we don't need to be involved in saudi arabia's issues now what we need to do is try to be peaceful and try to say look how can we bring about and all this killing now one thing interesting is the g. twenty summit. going on this week one of the big headlines going in with a chance the prosecutors in argentina could be paying saudi king solomon during his attendance at the g twenty flew in today and arrived now that's not only for the death but also for potential war crimes committed by saudi arabia and the coalition in yemen as well now look we all know that the chances are slim to none that we'll

see real prosecution on. wiley's and argentina and i know that is that a general problem that we do have in this world though the. man you can disagree on who is bad actors in this world but we don't see much any kind of prosecution or major. world leaders when they are caught committing war crimes or doing something truly bad. yeah and i think that is kind of an unspoken agreement between nations because if you allow you know if you allow one leader to be snatched away and put an end to put into chains or taken away and put behind bars and face trial then what's to stop the next one from the you know even though someone from the united states to other countries feel might be a war criminal or someone from any country so i just think that that's not going to happen when the last time it really happened except for nazi war criminals i mean

it might be something i'm missing it obviously. you know there are charges that are brought against people but usually what they do like in the case of george bush is just never leave the u.s. because any doesn't have to answer to any of that but here's the thing we all live on one planet and it's nice to say i love america and america's great our allies but i think we need to take a long hard look at who we consider our allies and who we consider our enemies because i find it upsetting that the saudis were giving so much money to the clinton foundation and hillary clinton's campaign and then on the other side doing this they're playing both sides just like everybody does and i think that's the part where we have to just be better people and then like better leaders and have a little bit of moral. you know the saudis i mean the saudis have been bad actors for ever i mean i just i'm i'm convinced they had some role in nine eleven i don't like the way that was whitewash i'd like to know the truth about that but you know the way they treat i think we've talked about the way they treat gays and and women

and women who claim rape they get punished for claiming well i mean that says obscene and while she was secretary of state hillary took money the clinton foundation took money from the saudis and other countries so this isn't new. and i think that i think that we could all use the three of us to go look them in agreement i think we all can agree that we need to really. well you wait who our allies are and maybe look at those things moving forward saying is that based a purely on money and influence or is it based on a general need thank you so what are you never heard of to take a look at your friends and re-evaluate you know that it's a good idea so much work i want out always a pleasure having you on actually i'll hear it all right as we're going to break off watchers don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics we've covered on facebook twitter and you tube and see our poll shows that are. coming up more on top of the walls delves into the newest united nations startling statistics on violence against women around the globe and then scott e-mailed us brings us the latest from the g. twenty summit in argentina so stay tuned to watch the whole. new

take on. one moment i think. they will when they will names we're buddies. they both lot. of them when i do you should have been there so.

i didn't want that i guess i mean yes i knew she needed that in the community yeah he. gets healed and he kind of she came back when i say he made the mood of the world. young enough to vote for. when norm a gets manufactured and sentenced to public wells. when the ruling classes project themselves. in the final merry go round be the one percent. that's not going nor middle of the room signals. from the real news is

really. going to please god cam sat down again for people that can't. and they're like so tired. this is like a safe house i guess they don't have to talk about what they go through with this because we understand her daughter katie was diagnosed with a very rare sun sensitive condition if i get sunburned i heal she does or she'll patients when they have problems with the walk to talk to your son the brains are actually shrinking inside the skull gets flicker in the brain still small. the pain is indescribable it's feels like a really really bad chemical burn but it goes through your skin in your muscles down to the bone. there's no relief. so we're just not sure this is just.

a. recent u.n. report the global study on homicide. the civically the gender related killing of women and girls as part of a global study on homicide by the united nations office on drugs and crime it was released on november twenty fifth the international day for the elimination of violence against women what they found is that a woman's place apparently isn't in the home it's in the great city of a reported eighty seven thousand women worldwide who were victims of homicide in two thousand and seventeen twenty thousand were murdered by a relative and thirty thousand were murdered by an intimate partner like a husband or boyfriend that means that across the globe fifty eight percent of female murder victims were killed by someone close to them the report also compares

male homicide victims to female and it's stark while women make up just twenty percent of global hamada homicides twice as many women are killed by an intimate partner or family related friendly member but despite men being about four times more likely to die by homicide eighty two percent of those killed by an intimate partner are women and it's gone up four percentage points in just a few short years since two thousand and fourteen of those fifty thousand global homicides of women or girls by family or intimate partners africa has the second largest number at about ninety thousand a rate of about three point one victims per one hundred thousand people more than twice the global average about one point three per one hundred thousand people asia has the most were twenty thousand homicides of women by intimate partners or family members however their victim rates are actually below the global average point nine percent per one hundred thousand however china and africa are also the areas with the least accurate or complete reporting of their home side numbers accounted for

and those numbers may be off since as the report states regional and global estimates are based on a limited number of countries with africa and asia accounting for most of the gaps . the americas north and south america accounted for eight thousand homicides of women and girls by intimate partners or family members coming in over the global average out one point six per one hundred thousand europe reported only three thousand and also is the lowest rated only point seven per one hundred thousand in oceana coming in three hundred deaths at a rate of one point three per one hundred thousand. and while those many numbers mean a lot one number strikes fears in the hearts famine around the world eighty two women are murdered per day by a person they expected to love them to care for them and to protect them not perpetrate the worst violence imaginable which takes us to a couple of areas of major concern for those so quick to turn away women with children at our u.s. border and beyond guatemala for example consistently ranks among countries with the

highest rates of violent deaths of women with a rate of nine point seven per one hundred thousand in fact of the twenty five countries with the highest rates of femicide which is when a woman is murdered because she is a woman fourteen of those countries are in latin america and the caribbean and well much isn't done to end this horrific trend sixteen countries in latin america have enacted specialized legislation on semisonic but the way to protect women isn't just in making laws that punish the murderers it's addressing why women are killed by people they love in south america job who blew a spokesperson for the commission for gender equality thinks the key is looking at rejection she says they men fail to understand they must let go when love is no longer there they think they own women so the issue of power relations and entitlement plays a great role in why they don't let go in australia men killed women in eighty percent of domestic murder cases in the country between twenty ten and twenty fourteen and if you think i'm just picking on men consider these numbers from

australia of all those homicides three men killed their male intimate partners and zero women killed there it's been partners also women not just say women can be violent i mean most women who kill their intimate partners were abused by the partner they killed and while most men who kill women do so because they feel the woman has wronged them or their family in some way and that's where the problem lies so women we've been treated like cattle to be bought sold and branded for thousands of years. well men have been taught repeatedly even violently that they must be strong unemotional highly sexual but only heterosexual must be a provider and never ever ever ever be feminine and when push comes to shove he should use violence to make that point that is what our society teaches men and boys so is it any wonder that when caught in the emotions of love and family sometimes men and boys react poorly we see women are forced to live up to

impossible standards of beauty and motherhood while men are forced to live up to another set of impossible standards standards that are literally telling men that they will never be as good at parenting as a woman that if they do anything remotely feminine they're weak and if they're abused it's their own fault for not being manly enough and there it is folks the cold hard truths men kill women they love because we are still forcing men and women to adhere to nonsense societal rules based on what we have between our legs. not within our hearts and mind. that's a breakdown and i think you hit the nail on the head tab of what one of the major issues is it's a lack of education and it's a lack of allowing people to be who they are at the end of the day just allowing people to be who they are to express themselves and to not be hindered or not be pushed around and said oh no you have to be. this way and i'm curious. when you see

numbers like that how does that make you feel as well because as a man i'm horrified by that. you know when you see that more women are killed by intimate partners than men that horrifies me because that is an imbalance that has to be addressed by society yes. most women i think have at some point in their life had to deal with someone who didn't say no or didn't take no for an answer didn't say we're breaking out for that and i think we've all heard stories from from women that we know about very similar thing and it becomes something that we're expected to just live with that's the same thing we're taught and very little if the kiss the boy pulls your hair if he's mean to us because he likes you we're all conditioned to fit into these whereas little structure is about our gender and it's why i say it i talk about feminism in patriarchy it pays your hurts men too and that's the point it's literally making men so miserable that your suicide rates are

through the roof your murder rates are through the roof that's not a feminism problem that's a patriarchy problem that's a problem and the fact the we are putting honestly it's like when you see these things like the insult movement and things like that it's you're giving you're giving too much power to the world outside of you rather than yourself at the end of the day if you if you are confident within yourself you don't need to treat other people you don't need something from other people you don't need to abuse other people because of this. great piece. as you mentioned earlier the annual g twenty summit kicked off this weekend when us arest argentina the big time political get together that would make a new world order conspiracy theorist proud because this year features a regular who's who of the biggest players in political banking and business worlds including our own scottie nell use host of r.t. america's news buz buz who is on the ground and one us air is covering this event here is her report from day one of the summit. well the sun is setting

here and point is heiress and i can tell you when it wakes up tomorrow it's going to be completely different than what we thought it was going to be just twenty four hours before now everybody knew there was going to be drama everybody knew there was going to be some tense moments both in the streets of oneness areas where you have twenty thousand additional policemen on the streets and as well as in some of these meetings between leaders but nobody ever thought the drama and the tension would have been before everybody even got here now the majority of the leaders are now at home here in buenos aires settling into their hotels but there are still a few to arrive including president donald trump who arrived later on early hours in the morning but there was some drama obviously getting here as german chancellor merkel's plane actually had to have an emergency stop and be replaced with a another plane from the german air force but that pales in comparison to the controversy created by the united states president donald trump in a tweet yes once again it's the tweet heard around the world well at least the

tweet heard around the g twenty as he tweeted that he was going to be canceling his meeting with. putin the president the president of russia and this came to a shock to everybody probably the majority people on president step but definitely the journalist who just the hour before president trump had told that he was going to be having the meeting the kremlin themselves said they found out about it via president trump's tweet and even those here on site found out about it so and all over the problem going on right now between ukraine and russia now the ukrainian president has come out already and said way to go way to stand up for what is going on within my country but that's not necessarily a sentiment that's being echoed by everyone else as you still have meetings with president putin still going to going to be going on with everybody with majority of the other leaders and in fact that broader putin staff even said this just allows president putin more time to meet with useful people and make a better use of his time so as the controversy continues there is one other

controversial. bigger that we thought was going to be the person that nobody wanted to stand next to in the photo prior to this tweet and that would be the saudi arabian saudi arabian crown prince. bin solomon who just on monday here in argentina had a local to human rights watch submitted a request to the federal judge here to investigate n.b.s. for war crimes as well as the murder of michelle mcgee and in response that same judge turned around and asked argentine foreign minister to seek information from turkey and yemen and the international criminal court that's where the drama we thought was going to be but just like you have people still meeting with president putin you're still going to have a lot of meetings being set up between and b.s. as it well including means with friends present a crone as well as possibly even president trump himself so a lot of interesting moving parts right here i'll say this if we woke up this morning to a change it'll be interesting to see if we'll see anything tomorrow back to you guys. defying those in power is

a time honored tradition here in the united states whether it's far away a world leader or own president some just refuse to obey and those people deserve an award like the twenty eight thousand mit media lab disobedience award director of the media lab and co-founder of the award joy ito said that the award is about speaking truth to power and power in the voiceless accepted personal responsibility and fall out without a view to personal gain which is why i need to founder tirana burke will share this year's prize with vanderbilt university neuroscientist beth mclaughlin who has been an outspoken critic of sexism within the science fields and founded me to stem the third recipient of the disobedience award was dr sherry marts who opened up about the harassment she suffered while in graduate school using it to help the american geophysical union to overhaul its code of conduct in order to build a more perfect future for all we must celebrate those who are willing to put their careers and her name on the line to do the right thing talk about what no one wants to and ultimately but the truth follow ups bro. i'm happy to see that award because

look i'm a full supporter of the mood to move but i want to see it spread into a lot of different sectors not just hollywood not just entertainment and t.v. and things like that it's got to be at all levels before we can get better change and i happen i'm telling you it's coming whether you like it and that. i hope so i'll sign them congratulations to these women and you know that's the of the important thing to because those people can be real good heroes to follow and get more women in the stopgap they persisted i love it and we all well i'm all right that is our show for you today remember every one of those will be of the fold but we love them enough so i tell you all i love you i tell them to have a lot of fun watching those hawks never for a day and night but. u.s.

veterans who come back from war often tell the same stories. we're going after the people who are killing civilians they were not interested in the wellbeing of their own soldiers either they're already several generations of them so i just got this memo from the circulated ventured off that says we're going to attack and destroy the government and seven countries in five years americans pay for the wars with them money others with. if we were willing to go into harm's way and willing to risk being killed for a war surely we can risk some discomfort or easiness for peace. when a loved one is murder it's natural to seek the. after penalty for the murder i

would prefer and it mean in the death penalty just because i think that's the fair thing 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 and the is just no really the present and that we're even many of the times families want the death penalty to be abolished the reason we have to keep the death penalty here is because that's what murder victims' families want to 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.
