ducky in the white house announced war plans using colombia against venezuela countries opposition leaders continue to enjoy washington's full support he blames maduro too for the humanitarian catastrophe in venezuela is recently said that he hasn't ruled out calling on the u.s. military to intervene against the president but next is caleb maupin explains washington's meddling in south america sometimes as had disastrous consequences in the past. elliot abrams the trump administration's new special representative for venezuela has been assigned the task of restoring democracy in the country and he says he's up to it just look how well he did in el salvador from the day the president was elected in a free election to this day o'sullivan who has been a democracy that's a fabulous achievement yes the pro-u.s. candidate to war to a won the elections but how democratic was the situation there were human rights
5:04 am
abuses and death squads everywhere in fact one of the worst massacres in the history of latin america happened around that time for. now it has got confronted about the gruesome details before congress yes or no do you think that massacre. was a fabulous achievement that happened under our watch that is a ridiculous question and i guess are no no no i literally miss i will make you happy yes i am not going to respond to that kind of personal attack which is not a question now the civil war between the us backed factions and the marxist
5:05 am
revolutionaries continued until nine hundred ninety two and slaughter by us backed forces also continue the death toll was as high as seventy thousand people but ronald reagan did not consider that to be a deal breaker the people of illinois have adored had another free election in march economic reforms are continuing and communist guerrillas are losing ground and none of this would have been possible without the economic assistance and military training and equipment that we provided so what have been the results is el salvador now a land of prosperity and freedom hardly in fact in twenty seventeen el salvador had the highest murder rate of any country in the world it is not currently at war those figures only decreased slightly in twenty eighteen now somebody might look at this and say well that was decades ago why bring it up now well the fact that abrams wants to repeat is democracy restoration project in venezuela is certainly alarming and when asked about this before the us congress he didn't deem it
5:06 am
necessary to give an answer would you support an armed faction within venezuela that engages in war crimes crimes against humanity or genocide if you believe they were serving u.s. interest as you did in guatemala el salvador and nicaragua i'm not going to respond to that question i'm sorry well on friday i see america correspondent done cohen confronted abrams off for a conference in washington asking a few questions he didn't seem to be keen on answer either. what do you say words of people who were skeptical about you because of your history of using humanitarian aid to send weapons contras in central america. you had any comments about but there are a lot of people who are very skeptical. because of the office and i'm i'm doing my job you are to which you can walk and so i would i'm sure you would you what do you have to say about that. you lied to congress you were
5:07 am
convicted of crimes. number of children living in conflict zones has doubled since the end of the cold war according to a new report by save the children the charity says one in five youngsters now live in areas affected by armed conflict. and their credit card the fact. that i what i want my lad i will have a site a i don't want to get. gotti in. my day to mcadams add to the how do you. think that's how tory have no idea what they've. done to the admin. but i keep them on
5:08 am
a chance the new stuff. and the news and. a lot of some of it is that. on the other side i do feel as if i am in a good long. india. and that was our. concern for the past lassiter for me ask. you. there's. no gravy ammi you show me a feeling. we have you have. actually heard. some four hundred twenty million children live in these conflict zones at least
5:09 am
a thousand of them die every year as a result since twenty ten the number of recorded cases of rights violations against children is almost tripled it includes cases of killing maiming abduction and sexual violence the increase comes despite many of the world's most powerful politicians campaigning for the protection of these young people in the wars of. forces continue their advance bearing down on the city of benghazi. home to nearly seven hundred thousand men women and children prevent images of m a seeded children how many more children have to die the whole route the humanitarian disaster that is killing tens and tens of thousands of defenseless children the death of children the destruction of hospitals all of that is a massacre which needs to be condemned. our report today shows that right now almost one in five children on the planet living in conflicts and that's more than
5:10 am
at any time in the last two decades. the consequences of living in these war zones catastrophic we have to make around three hundred babies are dying due to the consequences of war every single day while in twenty seventeen four hundred twenty million children what i think we're living in areas affected by conflict that is an increase of two million on the previous year so what this is really disturbing and more and more children are being caught up in conflicts in the international systems and here of accountability breaking down so that when people commit crimes against children they know they can get away with it so what we're calling on this for the government to stand up for children and wasn't sure that when people perpetrate crimes against children held to account what we're really calling for today is for the u.k. government protection of civilians in conflict strategy for us to the u.k. government needs to ensure the curator of the heart of all of that defense diplomacy and aids and that they need to use i say to some of the most powerful
5:11 am
tables in the well of the u.n. nato to ensure that other countries policy. not surprisingly maybe the report identifies afghanistan iraq syria and yemen as being among the most dangerous countries for children nobel prize nominee and peace activist kathy kelly told us the international community needs to do more to safeguard young people living in war zones this children certainly can't be held accountable for their governments whether it's military war economic war and i think that because of greed and pride and dishonesty countries all around liberal continue to wage war against the child their brakes of the child should certainly be held countries could work together. much more effectively and so we have to take responsibility ourselves and then encourage other people to do likewise they must do everything they can to
5:12 am
start this war and to start killing starving children. of all of the al qaeda remains a global threat to mostly the terror group could be poised for a resurgence in the coming year with the details people all over. there is being presented as a real and present danger by the united kingdom has undergone a certain resurgence as a result of the degradation of diaspora and is a force that should also be taken seriously it's deftly notes down and out the hopes just a little strange. since the. war on my orders the united states military has begun strikes against al qaeda terrorist training camps and military installations of the taliban regime in afghanistan today we focus on afghanistan but the battle is broader since then has spread to all of
5:13 am
these countries they've also changed their name as well in syria alone they've gone through at least three rebranding so whatever they call themselves they still control the lion share of the syrian province of in libya the thing is america isn't the king to get involved as it was previously it is time to give our brave warriors in syria. a warm welcome home and it's also currently battling al qaeda in yemen since the beginning of twenty seventeen we have conducted more than one hundred forty strikes to remove key leaders in the arabian peninsula and disrupt its ability to use ungoverned spaces to recruit train and plan operations against the u.s. and our partners across the region u.s. allies in the region on doing their share of the heavy lifting in fact. the united arab emirates have been accused of passing weapons on to terror groups
5:14 am
something they strongly deny almost eighty years after his slaying by u.s. special forces the words of a sama bin laden about the al qaeda network standout and it appears he may have been proved right al-qaeda is showing signs of confidence what will threats and threats from radical islamic terrorism a continuing threat posed by al qaeda as it stands they look likely to be around for a while yet peter all of our r.t. . protests have been taking place across india in the wake of that suicide bombing that killed over forty paramilitary police in the province of kashmir on thursday itself for a pakistan based terror group which the indian government claims received support from the authorities in islamabad took responsibility for the attack. and the more the fallout demonstrators of being filmed shouting anti pakistan slogans and burning effigies of the country's prime minister the bombings
5:15 am
dramatically escalated tension between india and pakistan would be fighting for control of kashmir since india's petition in one thousand and forty seven. but i want to tell the terrorist organizations and those who patronize them that they have made a huge mistake they will have to pay a huge price but sounds government's firmly denied india's claims that it was a vote in the attack of this offer to help investigate we spoke to analysts in both countries about what this bombing means for bilateral relations going forward now. at pakistan is being extremely extremely provocative and distended may have just gone one step too much so yes i mean people in india are extremely upset i'm not somebody who is saying you know. but i think the anger in the country is extremely
5:16 am
high so it's a constant fight and it's just a question of escalation you see an escalation then you see at least initially it goes back and forth i don't think that anybody in india at a moment is in any any bend of mind to have a dialogue because you just blown up forty forty two people in the middle of you know of a town so then come to the municipality come with munich conference and doc about peace is to is to really make fools of everybody else in the world well why did all that in similar incidents in the india has been quick to blame bobby song for the for the mess which we have been the person over the in the fog in tin can dorcas you region but again they have a my exchange off most of. hosh roads between two countries to start with on it appears that there may be a similar situation and then you can find a solution and fudge a sound would be a certainly cooperate thing with india number one comes up with hard evidence of
5:17 am
voting wollman anybody citizen or any group in this state or that did which i think is unlikely because jessie a mom of the group which has been in this possibility the rare decide bomb unless conducted this. is a biggest in indian controlled kashmir so pakistan has a politically nor loop linkages with this one side attack and the second possibility i think which is that in a broader picture of national debt kind of situation experience and that isn't a bush issue between india and pakistan. live from moscow the soft international thanks for watching with me kevin owen coming up to us twenty twenty presidential candidate is warning that donald trump's policies a push he will towards nuclear holocaust small but. the united states does that all the time it always tries to influence elections
5:18 am
when people who are running who are friendly to the united states are running against people who are unfriendly we certainly did that all through central america and south america for many many years we know that these efforts are made repeatedly there not criminal every intelligence agency in the world sees as part of its function to make sure that elections turn out favorably to the country. journalists photo journalists any type of videographer writing journalists their job it's much more dangerous every year because so many people now see what we do as threats you know threats to whatever their narrative is whatever the propaganda is. like anything. in our culture
5:19 am
the iraq and afghanistan wars had to be sold to the american people. congresswoman tulsi gabbard who's a twenty twenty u.s. presidential candidate as it used to bill that could stop president from the i.m.f. missile treaty she says that withdrawal is increasing the risk of a catastrophic nuclear conflict. right. right right right now. are our stories to be right. every. year. as a presidential campaign gets under way to facing a storm of criticism over a policy positions the hawaii congresswoman has been to talk to the media in recent weeks over statements he's made about syria russia writes and he seems to just one
5:20 am
of a growing number of prominent political figures accused of being under the kremlin . explains now. in getting to misstate russian stooges only quietly want to wait claims there are none for ages and then turns out not all at once. russia. is making want to take the easy send twenty sixty politicians no longer need compelling arguments or persuasive policies to all that if you're up against a tough opponent the kind that is popular with votes is just cool of the russians these stooges are just human versions of those russians but we've heard so much about they don't actually have to be real to walk sure having your own stooge in a position of power would have its advantages but even better is being able to accuse your enemies of being won a career in russians to jury is one of the most diverse in politics just look at the select members. in your crew as democratic presidential hopeful tell seek out
5:21 am
god who suggested that bad relations with the biggest nuclear power in the world may not be in everyone's best interests she says simone american hindu female socialist following in her prestigious footsteps of the song as an old white american male socialist and jeremy corbin an old white british male socialist and don't trump an old orange american male republican opportunist so you. literally anybody can be a russian stooge and those are just the anti hillary and anti war while here are the pro-war pro hillary clinton ones. so how do you even become a russian stooge. here it the russians recruitment academy we have positions available from entry level
5:22 am
all the way up to executive level don't worry about applying for the job mainstream media analysts and establishment politicians will forward it to you whether you want to or not the majority of our most successful employees simply fell into the job without noticing experience or knowledge of rochelle all russians is not essential the only qualification required is that you question the status quo publicly at least one if you are successful in your application we will inform you via m s n b c or fox news good luck to you dears. who is busy stooges allegedly two russian trolls that are being called out yet again over the ferias exist according to radio liberty research is a claim that russian social media accounts may have helped contribute to a measles outbreak in europe in twenty eighty the trouble is the vaccine supposedly
5:23 am
is quoted in the us government funded outlets per use does mostly appear to support the premise of the article. we actually don't know enough about the influence of misinformation if a little on line up on the nation intentions and behave is what they do know is that there is in that amount of echo chambers in this well nonetheless the article goes on the side of the fact is believed to contributed to the measles crisis in europe other than medical misinformation and scare mongering about vaccinations to suggest the inadequate health care provision a reluctance on the part of some people to vaccinate and general complacency of all played a role to bill ballrooms health official in northern california give us his thoughts on why skepticism towards vaccines has risen in recent is. for a long time certainly in the united states there has been a subculture that has resisted conventional medicine and this is its greatest manifestation has been resistance to vaccines so
5:24 am
so-called vaccine has it and see it is a lack of trust and in terms of health care and with regard to hospitals and doctors there is this becomes more profound it's an unfortunate consequence and metaphor station of a growing attitude of resistance to authority and a feeling of disenfranchisement. certain parts of the public has been going on for decades but it is excel rating in most recent years allegations of russian boat farms attempting to ferment debate about vaccination have been circling since august last year the bottom again is doubtful about the claims that he says. there are allegations that i think are motivated by the pot for political reasons to blame things on other countries what i've seen in a conference i attended that if anything the agenda of the ministry of health of
5:25 am
the russian federation is to improve and in here for health care of the population throughout the country it's very scurrilous and irresponsible to accuse russia or the kremlin of promoting this kind of misinformation. trade schools could be said to replace the words mother and father with parent one and parent to one official documents so after a new bill was passed by him page in the national assembly lawmakers in the country's lower house say that this proposal would challenge quote old fashioned family models the bills expected to pass the senate in the coming days too but it's not without its controversy. this amendment aims to to look for children's family diversity in administrative fools submitted in school. when i hear people say this is now a dated model i remind them that today among union celebrated civil marriage to some ninety five percent
5:26 am
a man woman couples well he said he got radio host john bolton human rights activist peter tatchell talking they gave us their thoughts on the proposal and what it would mean the for french society. this particular proposal is to try and ensure that the kids in the school the staff and the parents all feel included that in the case of you know two women who are parents to a child that is obvious in our appropriate to have mother and father there are two mothers and the same with ok dad is pathetic isn't it because they could be called moment mom well that while the proposal actually actually says he's parent one and parent two if they want to call them moment momos got a problem with that nobody's got a problem with a kid who now has got to two moms but we don't need to legislate for it parents who are on parent to what do we just give the kids a number the number seven it's nonsense yet you're just it's a fact that saying with a parent our minority doesn't make discrimination or second class status right if
5:27 am
a child has two moms or two dads then i think it's probably not correct to say father and father because obviously one will be the biological father and the other one won't i would suggest that possibly an alternative or that's probably a lot of hard booze then become a company a compromise might be mother to give people the option mother father or legal guardian so that the word legal guardian would account for the other person in that same sex relationship where my mother died when i was eleven and it would have been my own to so my own to it was really her guardian and she was my own c. nobody batted an eyelid and the same in this you can record legal guardian peter that's not what they're suggesting they're suggesting you can't use the word father or mom and dad that's what they're suggesting this is an attack on the ninety five
5:28 am
percent of people not only in france for around the world who are in the traditional family the traditional family is constantly being attacked at the moment by globalists. around the world this is not meant as an attack upon you know traditional families this is just to broaden the terms or make the terms more gender neutral so that everyone feels included is going crazy these minorities have got too much influence in the media let's stop them to solving our differences let's come together let's put the children first don't go with our final four for this polluted money was coming over in thank you for watching out international it was more about kind of things world of. debate discourse almost like you don't come from out of a doing this saturday we have a good weekend. max
5:29 am
keiser this is the kaiser report yeah the world is getting ready for a leg of the global financial crisis the drums are grieving i'm here talking about a massive wipeout across the globe it's going to be fantastic what else is happening talking about a financial white powder i think sanctioned event at that that that that that the that the wife. of see global financial crisis part two it's underway it's all happening it's a wipe multi-trillions of dollars gone and the hard being looked at like phantasmagoria right here on planet. crazy well we don't know if that's going to happen before the great fine their great extinction event happening as well that scientists have been warning about isn't raiding some town i came up with an idea of having like a seal sort of pool or park between where the ice used to be before we destroyed it
5:30 am
all through global warming and us put a bunch of seals in there and let the polar bears go you know seals are nice and chewing like a seal park for the polar bears i love it is better than eating ass but i have a tweet here and this goes with the notion of a global financial crisis and the new normal what is causing this underlying crisis not only in the financial markets in the banking sector in the monetary sector but also in the environmental sector and this is jeffrey good luck fed says it is currently discussing using q.e. as a regular tool not just during emergencies or when the funds rate is at the zero bound so quantitative easing will become the new normal as we've discussed this has caused cantillon effect of those closest to the fed i.
