discernible long term battle plan like the war on terror according to the latest report from brown university is cost of war project currently the war on terror is cost the u.s. more than six trillion dollars and conservatively caused almost half a million deaths around the world with the american public kept in the dark about these current cost casualties in the facts what happens when the citizens are properly informed on the actual real costs of war well recently when pollsters informed about a thousand americans of those brown university numbers i just spoke of and asked first if u.s. elites improperly exploited nine eleven for game more than thirty four percent said they most certainly dead and when the pollsters pollo it up and asked us leaders and asked of us leaders who backed the global war on terror should be prosecuted thirty four percent once again said yes they should be now imagine imagine just how those percentages might actually climb a pyre if the rest of the mainstream media practiced would we do an end every given

night and start watching the hawks. to. get the. real deal with. the bottom. like you that i got. with that we. would. welcome everybody to watching our entire rover and i'm typing while if i know like my dad's money going to pay for the destruction around the world i mean who really knows who really does but you know somebody will there be such a thing it's interesting when you see those numbers that i mentioned because that's where you tell someone hey guess. why this is what how many people been killed six

trillion dollars you know half a million killed probably more six million six trillion dollars and suddenly almost a third if you follow it the polls could be trust of the third of the populations is that it's not good we've been bent this is bad someone should be held accountable for this it's really incredible when you see that do you think that better news coverage of these you know actual real issues that war brings rather than just the raw raw. lead do you think that that actually would bring about a change the u.s. opinion on it i think we know what we're spending money on and who it went to yes i think if there was better coverage of it and i don't understand why that level of transparency is not fought for especially by those in the media and part of it's access as we said i mean it's just as much if you get access if you lose your access to the white house it's a big deal if you lose your access to to some government organization or ace a group that's bad because you don't you you don't you're not allowed in that

little space and you can't inform people on the way to lose access i mean we've seen the quickest way to lose access is that idea of like over you don't cheerlead the war you're thrown out yeah hopes i mean when you look at like some of the cause i mentioned six trillion that's six trillion dollars over the seventeen years of war on terror right now that's comparable to the twenty twenty four cost of the gross domestic product of all of japan and. the war in afghanistan is essentially you know as we know america's longest war that war roughly cost taxpayers about forty billion a year which of the breakdown i am doubts the problem is we only hear these big numbers and we think well we've got trillions of billions and weren't out all these trillion so what's another trillion or a few billion or a last few trillion who cares here's where it actually makes sense to people and it's when you start breaking it down of how much each person every taxpayer is paying into that it's sort of like if this is the great national of the. here's

your piece of it that kind of reporting as much more important and that is that they use the average u.s. taxpayer since two two thousand and one since nine eleven has paid out about twenty three thousand two hundred and eighty six dollars. for war each person each of us over over the seventeen years has has put in about twenty three thousand dollars tom engelhardt actually points out that the high number is also filled to as he said include the psychic cost to the americans mangled in one way or another and those never ending conflicts they don't include the cost to this country's infrastructure which has been crumbling while taxpayer dollars flow copious lee and in and in and remarkably in these years almost uniquely bipartisan fashion into what's still laughably called national security and it's not national security it's international politics at the end of a gun and we're paying for it while our health care is goes down while everybody while wall street makes a ton of money and we're paying for it because ultimately we're paying all that

money because wall street keeps needing bailouts and the car companies need bailouts and everybody needs a bailout but we're paying more i mean think about it like it's not like volumes in that average number twenty three thousand dollars twenty seventeen bucks that's a socially on average every u.s. citizen who pays you know put in taxes every taxpayer to a citizen paying a little more than a thousand dollars a year out of their paycheck and i'll tell you for the last seventeen years i could have you for many many of those years i could have used that other that thousand dollars a year would have been the difference between a lot of good things brought about here and for most people only how much money could be i mean it's really incredible when you look at it. while. with the world more connected than ever before major governments around the world are climbing over each other and themselves to win what's been called the great information war of the twenty first century for all of us caught in the middle of this intense crossfire of a. information it's getting tricky to tell the real news from

a fake news in effect news from the real news out of more fuel to the fires of this information war as the international hacker group anonymous which recently released even more secret documents alleged to show the real motivations and purposes behind britain's recent moves to commence the evil scope. of russian propaganda r t america's manila chan has more. famed hacker group anonymous is at it again this time showing us how the u.k. is using social media to manipulate public sentiment at least as it pertains to russia now anonymous took to their own web site for the document dumps both times this latest one included names and contact info for people in various e.u. countries including bill browder who they claim are part of the misinformation campaign here's what they had to say quote we have obtained a large number of documents relating to the activities of the integrity initiative project that was launched back in the final twenty fifteen and funded by the british government the declared goal of the project is to counteract russian

propaganda and the hybrid warfare of moscow hiding behind benevolent intentions president has in fact created a large scale information secret service in europe the united states and canada which consists of representatives of political military academic and journalistic communities with the think tank in london at the head of it now anonymous says the u.k. have organized clusters of operatives in countries like england germany spain and other e.u. nations to essentially rally around the russian narrative as a scapegoat around the russian narrative as a scapegoat especially as the u.k. is facing difficulty in the ongoing breakfast or deal they say having russia as a scapegoat helps to keep the population and the media united now the irony here is that the u.k. government is doing exactly what it's accusing russia of doing and that's interfering with domestic relations of foreign countries now in the psychology world this. would be called projecting but let's face it this is politics and what

we're witnessing here is the deliberate distraction technique with the masterful use of media and other soft hours. whoa whoa it's projection and also another fun one called gaslighting simply no no you're crazy because you don't know what we know and we know when you're yeah sort of this idea haven't you seen it i mean obviously it's that i read such a thing and it is really incredible that they're basically doing what everyone and q. roshan doing in late two thousand and sixteen and all of the ok well we're going to combat your decision from asian with our own descent from asian because you're doing it so we're going to do it which i mean ultimately that but remember no it's not distant from ation it's real information excellently producer and writer by the way that happens all of that excellently produced but it were only doing it because we're trying to trick you and run believing whatever magical i don't know what i

decide what i know i don't i don't even know what you think i'm trying to get you to believe that you don't believe that i mean you couldn't really i mean at this point there's like you know twenty first century information war three is that just code for the readers not allowed to understand or read anything anymore ya know not much that's approved but that's not. cool it's ok if you're doing it but if you're doing it like for the right reason according to the larry. i mean it is really incredible when you according to documents published by anonymous the integrity initiatives are just one example there are spammers cluster which is like they're saying like a group of officials and thinkers who are they going to get on board ran a campaign on twitter in last june to push spanish political parties to ask the prime minister pedro sanchez to scrap the appointment of a spanish colonel who was being appointed to head. influential intelligence office

due to his perceived like soft brush and sympathies he was soft on russia so we need to like twitter exploded to take him down because that could be a threat in the long run i mean it's so cold war it blows my mind the idea that this and also this don't and don't ever everybody the mainstream media uses this nonsense excuse that well when we say the russians we don't mean actually they know we mean the russian government guess what you don't you still look like a jerk and that's my thing about this this is and also it's all across europe separate anonymous has a british intelligence and been able to conduct similar operations the one in spain across europe in france germany italy greece now the islands lithuania norway serbia even montenegro because gosh what if montenegro goes i don't know the capital flows. i've been to suddenly want to. talk to this country and that i would not for if it were trying to the idea is like no one is clean in this no one's life

you know there's squeaky clean angel no country around the world is we all know that intelligence services in every country is trying to influence other countries and trying to get their own economic gains and things like that for their country that's not there but at the end of the day isn't the idea that we're it's better to have relationships even with the people that you don't necessarily like because that's what prevents war maybe we have to figure out why it is that they're obsessed with not liking certain countries based on cultural reasons because that's a little. that's. all right everybody is really good point and as we go to break hard watchers don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics we've covered on facebook and twitter and see our poll shows at our team dot com coming up a civil rights attorney the key levee pounds brings us the latest on a very racist christmas display courtesy of a major metropolitan police department oh what a world we live and stay tuned to watching the hawks.

i hope. i'm max kaiser one more of my guide to financial survival this is on it's a device used by professional scallywags to earn money. that's right these are not accountable just heading muumuu into the. stabilizing global economy you need to protect yourself and get informed guys are. responding in this hour the need. arise how do.

you know. where to. begin and you. write down the bank. based walker. and this is going to. treat many international mascherano that these industries out of polluting your dissenting ignored your money and mother. and the mother of the things we lost even this.

seemed wrong. to me that he's yet to shape out these days he comes to educate and in the game an equal to trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart. she's. so the common ground. zero christmas tree christmas tree that i ornaments are races that's what you would have some if you had walked into the minneapolis minnesota as fourth

present last week and seen their christmas tree along with some traditional less horrible decorations some officers had decided it needed more they added an empty can of malt liquor a cup from popeye's louisiana chicken a bag of talkies chips a pack of newport cigarettes and police tape. cunningham minneapolis city council of ward four told the press these pieces of trash were deliberately chosen to represent how certain officers feel about the community they serve that black people are a stereotype to be mocked and the lives of those they serve may as well be reduced to trash in the gutter the two officers age twenty one year veterans of the force were placed on leave pending an internal affairs investigation and their commander and specter aaron byrd has been reduced to the rank of lieutenant and has been devoted to the traffic division but this isn't the first time that members of the minneapolis police department are shown a distinct lack of empathy or concern for the people of color they are supposed to protect the time it gets handed john del monaco who ran the police union from one

thousand nine hundred twenty fifteen that supported every bad cop in the city for the last two decades famously accusing the mayor betsy hodes in twenty fifteen a flashing gang signs and a photo or photo with a box all in here when that didn't work out monaco tried to sue the mayor for calling him racist in text message and let us not forget the death of an african-american man philander castille from our clark and others at the hands of minneapolis police with the public's faith in our police departments waning by the day acts like these by the officers who decorated the tree are even more dangerous to the safety of the public and for anyone caught between the police and their fear joining us today to better understand this and other issues of police rassmann idiocy and violence as minneapolis civil rights attorney make money by the town thank you so much for joining us today thanks for having me it is a pleasure. it's important to note in this is that the officers involved in this were. young rookies who didn't know any better better better we're talking about twenty plus year veteran of the force these two guys who quite frankly in any

reasonable thinking society in any honest that you know in any just good society they should have known better you don't do something like this why are these officers feeling so i'm told them to decorate a christmas tree with these vile things you know what is going on. boulder's them that they go are going to do this and that's ok so i think that there are two reasons why these officers were involved and number one they have more than twelve complaints against them as a result of excessive force or other forms of misconduct and they have not been held accountable they have also been involved in at least three fatal police shooting which is shocking that they've been allowed to get away with misconduct on the force for this long the second reason why i think they were involved in this because the force precinct is a predominantly low income african-american community in the heart of north minneapolis and unfortunately north minneapolis has experienced high rates of

criminalization at the hands of fourth precinct police officers as well as excessive force and in the last three years alone we've had three men of color shot and killed by officers from the fourth precinct and some of them were actually involved in the tree decoration as well saying that the two officers that were involved have a long history of excessive force you know complications and all of that the fourth precinct again has a lot of problems in the twenty sixteen report they showed that the fourth precinct in minneapolis to peace tomorrow meant that half of all disciplinary actions in the whole city were from that one precinct just one that's a forest precinct. this one particular precinct what's what is the problem with that one precinct or something environmental or is it just. that they don't have very good be i'm trying to say something that's not horrible because i want to

because it's so you see the list of things that happen what's going on or what they need to do to reform that north of minneapolis and this precinct because. it's not right is absolutely ridiculous the first choice that i would like to see happen along with other activists in minneapolis is for the fourth precinct to be turned back into a community center that was actually the origin of the fourth precinct police station several years ago the chief at the time decided that they were going to take that land put a new building in that space and it's right in the heart of the african-american community a statically it just simply does not belong there beyond that the fourth pretty thing has been allowed to get away with a lot of agree just behavior over the years and there's been an extreme lack of accountability and so the other thing that i think needs to happen is that every single officer and staff person assigned to the fourth precinct needs to reapply for their jobs they need to completely overhaul that precinct from the top all the

way to the bottom why is there such pushback against doing something like that i mean i grew up you know outside of minneapolis you know minnesota front about why why is there such pushback to just saying you know what this precinct clearly has a problem it's time to reform it like what is the excuse what is the pushback against what think that too many of our elected officials lack the political will to do something significant in terms of changing things that the fourth precinct the other issue as i mentioned before is that most of the people who live close to the precinct are african-american and low income and they really don't have a voice in the political system and so i think that as a result of that elected officials have been allowed to ignore communities of color and particularly the african-american. community but we're fighting back so this friday we're actually going to bring a nine foot tree to the fourth precinct and we're inviting the entire community to come and decorate it from our perspective not the police officers perspective but

from the community's perspective so that's one way of fighting back the other thing we're going to do is continue to apply pressure to our mayor along with our police chief and other elected officials to radically transform the force present a really good thing you know it's interesting we talked the last time you were on the show we also talked about the shooting death of a man took this job. and at the hands of police who mistook him legal gun owner they mistook him as an active shooter the autopsy now has come out and they found that the police shot him in the back. in the back three times he was facing away from them when they shot him which then puts their account of all he was the active shooter we thought we thought he was in the serious question. what is unique about that case and how does it relate to the overall institution of racism that we're seeing over and over and over again in the minds of police whether before precinct minneapolis or other departments around the country well i think that part of the

question is whether or not the case is actually unique as african-american men often say whether they have a gun legally or they don't they could be subjected to police shooting whether they have a cell phone whether their hands are raised they could be subjected to being shot and killed by the police and so they feel that their lives are in danger no matter what they do and the system has generally not vindicated them as a matter of fact african-american men are often villainize and demonized after they have been victimized by the police and this case is no different again a legal gun owner being treated like a criminal is absolutely absurd especially when he was by definition the good guy with a gun that they say should be there you should be the person who puts your life on the line to help other people and not so he was doing and once again you know we lose another person because there's a fear and not fear is. i wonder how sometimes that that fear like we have to

really deal with that and i wonder sometimes if having police officers should have to live in the neighborhood that they police and so that you understand the people there because i'm just seeing so much that it's people who are officers like in minneapolis where they're working in a precinct that they don't understand they don't know the people they don't know their neighborhood and that's weird because i mean i grew up in a small town where the police knew who you were whether you want to do or not but they knew where things were and they knew and to me every place should be like a small town where they know what's going on and they're helping each other and i hope. there's something that we can do to kind of do that can i ask what's happened to the actual tree i mean i know we're going to we're going to bring that down on friday which is great but what happened to the tree is so. true was apparently for seventy two hours before the public got wind of it and so i'm eagerly upon the picture circulating on social media it was actually taken down because they did not want of course the controversial controversy but what you were saying about

a police living in communities. who was shot and killed by his neighbor who was a police officer in dallas texas and so it really at the end of the day shows that we have to reform the institution of policing and overhaul it and make sure that people are mentally stable when they join the police force and that they have a heart for people regardless of their skin color or ethnicity whether that's a great point two years of age or is that you know we have to make sure everybody i think it's kind of getting to the point now or almost looking at our entire kind of the. defense try to work with our law enforcement community is saying ok we did this start from scratch let's rethink the entire design and just start from scratch and start pulling all sorts of good new ideas i want to thank you for being out on the front lines in this fight really really sticking up for the people of minnesota who don't have a voice so there's really no border to thank you so much thanks for having.

those millennialists there at it again not happy with killing fast casual chain restaurants like yogurt diamonds thanks brad works up in our beer bar soap and apparently consumerism they have now set their sights on destroying canned tuna that's right a recent new poll street journal report yes a whole report claims that the problem is that a lot of malarial don't even know it can openers the same project all it couldn't possibly be that canned tuna is bland sometimes contains dangerous levels of mouth and. curie the catching process kills dolphins it's overpriced its process its high in salt and the biggest brands like chicken of the same bumblebee and stark as how big are buying their tuna from suppliers that use slave labor and i'm a white about it so i say to you do are no one else thank you thank you for taking on the evil can tune on destroying it by having standards and ethics and to

the folks out there trying to blame millennialist for every baby booming failure of the twenty first century you are rotten to the albacore or into the albacore really i always wondered why i didn't realize chickens could swim because none of them did the chicken of the sea thing that check i'm sure knows that would be right well it's not it's kind of a lot of benefits and right there i know i get over there a good good for standing up for having quality food we need more of that more of things i think that this will devolve a little bit attention the last little bit is we also have to tackle the food desert issue we're talking about poor communities earlier today one of the problems and i've been one of the problems in north minneapolis and other communities like that is there's food deserts where you can actually get people healthy decent affordable food that i got to say that would be good for standing up to big tuna thing right that is are so for you to day remember going in this world we're no we're not told that we're loved so i tell you all i love you i am tired romans and i'm top of the pilot keep on watching those hawks out there and have

a great day and night everybody. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the u.s. is over twenty trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you loans to the rich eight point six percent market saw thirty percent minus minus two years some with four hundred to five hundred trade per second per second and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building a two point one billion dollar a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need to remember is one one does not show you can afford to miss the one and only.

when goal may just manufacture consent to step into the public well. when the running clubs isn't protect themselves. when the financial merry go round lifts only the one percent of. the time we can all middle of the room signals. the real news for the world. i'm max kaiser one more of my guide to financial survival this is a fun it's a device used by professional scallywags to earn money. that's right these has flaws are simply not accountable and we're just adding more and more to them.

totally destabilize the global economy you need to protect yourself and get informed watched as are. the ways of the united states is dangerous for most of the illegal immigrants. crossing the most. just a little sympathy i want to take on last and enter and i want the last post on this to pass but i think many of them look for refuge in the so called sentry sites the draft used to share information about undocumented migrants with federal authorities the best person to ask than call mom. was you know no i didn't have my son i got him in a lot of class and i want that. they had a lot of the options to stay in the country with donald trump in the white house before the cardinals. also if you could just be who he beat up to the comment i said sits doubleton many couples won't. kill what chance the puts him put impulse

response host both up for a few up as opposed to the fault of the. me and i'm very glad that i'm. the man for the. hour. in light of these facts the united states today declares it has been rushed in material breach of the treaty and will suspend obligations as a remedy effective in sixty days unless russia returns to full and verifiable.
