11:35 pm
time the international media was screaming about a russian invasion in ukraine russia could now be on the verge of invading ukraine but strong words state only in the media the ukrainian authorities never announced a war like situation why i.m.f. cannot give money to countries in gauged an ongoing war that's roboto shango. when you go to your show will go to too much money was already invested in ukraine to stop halfway had invested over five billion dollars to assist ukraine in these and other goals that will ensure a secure and prosperous and democratic ukraine. starts in a city you know well it will slowly new democracy just go to. the with. some of them but obviously the funds had to keep coming and the conflict had to keep going. or and more bloody and deadly.

earnest. as parties from both sides were using more sophisticated and lethal weapons. that's why you know what. i need is the new deal. you know that's really kind of. the world seem to busy welcoming this new democracy in kiev. to notice what was being done as it spread its wings over the country. many in southern ukraine had been viewing the revolution with concern.
11:37 pm
and an anti mind on movement formed in the city of odessa in early january two thousand and fourteen the protesters set up their camp in front of the trade union house a building which would soon become a monument to a massacre of its own it's difficult to overestimate the importance of odessa it is strategically located on the black sea and it's ukraine's largest seaport it's not surprising that ukraine's new authorities were watching the situation unfolding there with growing alarm. more and more of odessa as people were joining the anti my don movement at the same time as events in eastern ukraine were heating up. the new ukrainian government didn't have the power to wage war on too many fronts if odessa were to join the growing uprising in the eastern regions it would seriously complicate the situation. this rebellion had to be extinguished immediately and at any cost and that cost was high. on may second two thousand and fourteen soccer
11:38 pm
fans flocked to the center of odessa city for the ukrainian championship match surprisingly a great number of these fans who descended into odessa just the night before also turned out to be fighters from the my don self-defense units along with members of radical organizations from all parts of ukraine that these. law. these families and asked armed and shouting nationalist mottos began disturbances in the center of the city as they marched to the end time i don tent encampment where they attacked. the end time mind on protesters sought shelter in the trade union house but it was a track mind on supporters started throwing molotov. cocktails into the building until it was engulfed in flames. people burned to death inside or trying to escape. fire station was less than a mile away it took almost half an hour for firefighters to arrive when they
11:39 pm
finally did the damage had been done. but here's an intriguing fact just a few days before those dreadful events a messenger from my don. be made a visit to odessa it's an interesting coincidence that some of the people he met with in odessa were seen at the scene that fateful day. but not everyone was mourning on the popular political talk show schuster live the news about the people burned alive in odessa was welcomed with a long round of applause when he. just said just put it. on its facebook page the right sector announced the events of may second
11:40 pm
a proud moment in national history an official investigation into this sad event has been going on now for nearly two years and it's yet to reach a conclusion but it seems the experts and all the information they needed from the very beginning. really cute. it looks like a desa really is a very important piece of real estate as it was on earth with a very special new governor appointed on may thirtieth of two thousand and fifteen . old friend of the united states and born and raised in ukraine. neighboring country georgia so down there in georgia a quick look at his biography gives one an understanding that he's been groomed for a special mission to be decided on. mr saakashvili received
11:41 pm
a u.s. state department scholarship and he worked for a new york law firm which represented the organization commodity a group that appeared earlier when we learned about the color revolutions and we're dealing with democratic blood blister aleutian this is the revolution of roses and this is me kyle saakashvili with camara busy overthrowing the legitimately elected president eduard shevardnadze. and that's because. soon after the rose revolution foley georgia announced its intentions to join nato and plant fresh nato military bases in the fertile soil right on russia's border never ever will give our freedom and independence never never will give any piece of our territory saakashvili is mission was accomplished at least with his friends and nato the georgian populace wasn't quite as happy though in two thousand and seven they took to the streets to voice discontent and mr saakashvili responded
11:42 pm
with force. the people's discontent. saakashvili party lost parliamentary elections and the opposition took control he sat this means that the parliamentary majority and new government the president according to our constitution decided not to wait for the results of the president's election and fled the country in october two thousand and thirteen. i do think the numbers mean something they matter to us as over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crime happens each day. eighty five percent of global wealth he longs to be ultra rich the six percent world market
11:43 pm
those thirty percent some with one hundred five hundred three first second first second and fifth when he rose to twenty thousand dollars. china's building two point one billion dollars a real park but don't let the numbers over the world. the only number you need to remember is one one business show you know for the myth the one and only boom box. on. the list and in. my sack i said come on i dusted your money and. so there are other bills go up. the end and then him and i dash in efficient but i
11:44 pm
lay nine o'clock o'clock on the hood of the duck i. put the money out the money i don't i don't want to worry about. somethin really not working. mr needs. a phone company does when. i don't they shuffle stem and we have been down on the well. you know but a little warmth and you know what. i want and set that outta. my shell idea you saw that this idol of the. in a world of big partisan movie lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door. and shouting past each
11:45 pm
other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. in two thousand and fourteen saakashvili refused summons to appear in court as a witness in several criminal cases later that same year he was accused of misuse of power and embezzle. saakashvili wound up in the u.s. and soon his friends in washington found him a new assignment. actively supported my down and very soon was rewarded with a high position in the new ukrainian government. first as the president's counselor
11:46 pm
and then as the governor of odessa the day before taking this position he renounced his citizenship to georgia the country of the earth and became a ukrainian citizen. and the single best others gordon could have done in the way explored that road in the cecil. gordon could have done in the way explored that road. as they say the battle is worth the blood both literally and figuratively. crassness now do i not somebody affordable by the us out reading your paper to class now tossed off on. someone's ear to chester but i looked. up to date on the my seal of geoffrey pyatt the u.s. ambassador to ukraine paid a visit to saakashvili just a month after he took office in odessa it is law and the old last administration is delivering results. you're going to see a steady flow of embassy in washington visitors coming here the meeting was
11:47 pm
fruitful and geoffrey generous. no matter how well saakashvili is job goes it looks like he shouldn't be worried about his own finances on his facebook page he posted an official document showing that the new governor of odessa gets a pretty penny from washington almost two hundred thousand dollars a year for comparison the governor of maine gets seventy thousand dollars a year so if odessa became a new u.s. state it would be at the top of the list mr saakashvili should feel right at home in his newly adopted country he is best of friends with fellow color revolutionary leader viktor yuschenko who is the godfather of his son. and then other mothers called us in the russian lucia present. at the post below walk us kind of being it's just sad and he sees them leave. even though there's
11:48 pm
a double. when you're still the but the least of those three is if i did it with you but i suppose then that. this boy business dinner we should get another of this on. just and the but it's the end of the year it's just a little bonus dust we were able to contain so. a war once launched doesn't choose its victims we are just learning at this hour that malaysian airlines has now confirmed that it has lost contact with one of its planes plane was indeed shot down by a missile while flying at a high altitude over eastern ukraine near the russian border two hundred ninety eight revised number of souls on board all feared dead it was a murder it was a crime there's been this odd nonchalance about pursuing the answers
11:49 pm
there was a report a very limited report put out a few months after the event but since then they said the next report will be on the first anniversary of the event but you deal with a criminal investigation before becomes a cold case so there's been this curious element of why is there not greater pressure from both the media and the the western governments to answer these questions but even without any answers the fingers were pointed immediately that's not an accident that is happening because a russian support evidence indicates that the plane was shot down by a surface to air missile that was launched from an area that is controlled by russian backed separatists inside of ukraine into these little so just to put up a national show that just as it's a question of taking. the malaysian boeing wasn't the first plane to play a significant part in american russian relationships on september first one
11:50 pm
thousand nine hundred three korean airlines flight double zero seven from new york to seoul via anchorage was shot down by a soviet interceptor aircraft over the territory of the u.s.s.r. in the sea of japan there was absolutely no justified. i don't legal or moral for what the soviets did the tragedy of the korean bowing was considered a perfect occasion to demonstrate the nato military power within dangerous proximity to the soviets on nov second one thousand nine hundred eighty three nato launched able archer attend a command post exercise simulating a conflict escalation culminating in a nuclear attack it was followed by placing pershing two nuclear missiles in europe . what reagan didn't take into consideration was the paranoid overreaction of the soviets. a recently declassified us intelligence report shows that for the first time since the cuban missile crisis the world was close to
11:51 pm
nuclear war. just like in one thousand nine hundred three the malaysian boeing crash was leveraged against the enemy. a new wave of sanctions hit russia mediately after the tragedy. the united states is imposing new sanctions in key sectors of the russian economy. year in three months later the dutch safety board published a report that is itself been plats m.h. seventy crashed because of. three well for. the today just outside of the arrow playing the best the left side of the car fits the report didn't blame any specific group or person and estimated a very wide area of three hundred twenty kilometers as a zone from which the missiles fired at the same time the russian producer of missiles day conducted its own independent investigation isn't that they speeded me
11:52 pm
up the fullest. lou with adele and. be nice to them during the experiment they blew up a retired airliner with a missile and came to the conclusion that the malaysian plane was brought down by the older two. of missiles not used by russia anymore but still in the possession of ukraine the company claims that the missile was launched from the territory controlled by the ukrainian military. one would expect that these controversial results would again stir up public interest in the investigation but the tragedy of malaysian flight m h seventeen at already played its role in the big geo political game therefore it was soon forgotten the goal was achieved after the third wave of sanctions hit russia the tensions between the two countries skyrocketed so the question presents itself are we truly witnessing the beginning of cold war two point zero and if so what are chances to survive at this time.
11:53 pm
