well peace research institute military spending is going up around the world usa today reports that the global rise was driven partially by a nine point six billion dollar hike in u.s. arms expenditures you see the red white and blue is still the world heavyweight champion of military spending despite russia's recent move into second place surpassing the united kingdom the united states his position as the top arms producing nation in the world remains unchanged and for now i'll challenge. and for any reasonable thinking person not talking war cheerleading death on cable news every night this should be concerning this should be a very concerning bit of data because when your country is home to five of the world's ten largest arms dealers sorry defense contractors you have to ask yourself is your country really a bastion of peace or is it really just war mongering for prosperity so today now that the numbers are in let's find out just who is the best of the best in the

business of death as we start watching the hawks. get the. it's. like you that i got. well the watching dogs i am a robot and i'm to have a lot. selling. everything that goes with it is good business is business it's very good business it's very good business so much so that you've got to stand back with

a certain amount of. tragedy and that feeling like you want to throw up in the back of your mouth when you see them out of money being spent and yet you know we're says they're making all this money american companies making this ridiculous amount of money selling arms. and yet where are we seeing any of that money in the taxpayer seeing any of that in taxes from these companies know where paying to subsidize. most definitely i mean. it's really only break down if you tap the wallace and. the top merchants of war right now at number five. and then they're out of the united states total arms sales twenty two billion dollars profit two billion dollars a year you know in their products as a fighter jets b. two stealth bomber f. thirty five's the are based systems they're out of the united kingdom arms sales

twenty two billion twenty two point nine billion dollars total say one point one billion in profit talk about combat vehicles fighter jets type thirty five again are good friends of raytheon out of the u.s. there are total arms sales at twenty three point nine billion dollars they've made a two billion dollars profit this their main products are like raytheon air to surface surface to air air to air surface to surface precision guided missiles bombs and torpedos coming in and number two to have a boeing jet maker boeing's twenty six point nine billion in arms sales an eight point two billion dollars profit for boeing because they also make a lot of money just from selling regular jets and things like that and then number one the biggest arms dealer in the world number one by. our lockheed martin out of the u.s. forty four point nine billion dollars in arms sales two billion dollars profit lockheed is a. lockheed is actually the largest defense contractor in the world. and

the other thing you know about him is that so in two thousand and seventeen they had close to forty four point nine billion in arms sales. but what's interesting is that lockheed martin profit or revenue from the u.s. government alone is more than the annual budget total annual budgets of the i.r.s. and the environmental protection agency come by and we spend more than we do at the i.r.s. which is one fully under funded yet that's where we can get a lot of money. which i don't know just make sure that we have clean water and things like that. clean water in a clean environment or need to pay your taxes when you're bombing people in your day and the worst part is it was really you know the worst part about from my personal and you might know them as the people who brought you the bomb that they sold to saudi arabia that was dropped on a school bus full of children in yemen killing forty boys and eleven adults so

great work i don't want to i mean i just i want this to be what america is this is what we make war is our biggest export if you really look at it when you look at these numbers i mean it's hard to deny and when that's what you have the revolving door and who was it that just moved from government to government right into the private sector of the defense industry was former u.s. ambassador to the united made to the united nations. is expected to join the board of directors the board of directors for boeing the weapon system an aircraft maker she goes but the bring out on the twenty ninth just to give you a great example of the kind of takes the words. journalist glenn greenwald on hearing the news about nikki haley tweeted congrats to nikki haley on. having your incessant warmongering pay off so quickly and lucratively and congrats to boeing for obtaining her influence must be nice it is if that build up because i bet you that he's going to run for president when trump's done and this is like part about critics what do you think you know about building airport airplanes.

an estimated eight hundred british and five hundred american nationalist joined isis since two thousand and fifteen in the year since few have come home and even fewer have survived but of those who did survive the brutal terrorism and civil war in syria leaving may be more arduous than life in the caliphate britain's defense minister gavin williamson told the daily mail in twenty seventeen quote a dead terrorist can't cause any harm in britain when asked if rehabilitating former isis bribes and fighters was possible and here in the united states the state department has made it clear they have no intention of repatriating those who chose to fight with a terrorist group not twenty four year old american born home with ana is facing a future where no place feels like home or to correspondent john hardy has believe it. or not so fast so says u.s. district judge reggie walton who denied a request by hota on his lawyer for expedited proceedings in the case to determine

her citizenship judge walton ruled that my phone his lawyers failed to prove that the twenty four year old and her eighteen month old son are in imminent danger at the refugee camp in syria where they've been living since fleeing from isis earlier this year with ana says isis militants have threatened her life and is asking to return to the united states even if that means facing prosecution in prison which would be likely president trump last month tweeted that he instructed secretary of state mike pompei o not to allow my phone a back into the united states pumpin maintains with ana is not a u.s. citizen nor ever was having been born to a yemeni diplomat in the us and therefore is not afforded the same rights as an american citizen secretary. pompei. has been quite clear in this regard and that. you know we're going to continue to take all lawful measures to ensure. that she does not enter the united states return as lawyers argue her father's diplomatic

status ended before her birth so she was automatically a citizen upon her birth in hackensack new jersey also judge walton during the hearing this week said her lawyers presented a quote good point that rejecting moves on his claims to citizenship could set a precedent that would allow foreign countries to abuse diplomatic immunity to commit espionage if madonna is ultimately not allowed to return to the united states she could apply for asylum in another country such as sweden where former isis militants and widows have been allowed to return to the country has taken a harder stance on immigration more recently now his will of human rights watch says move on his case presents an opportunity for countries like the united states in the way the government should really be interested in trying to study much more how this man happens where the appeal comes from and therefore how they can prevent young people from joining experiments groups going forward saying there's an intrinsic value in bringing back individuals like this not only to investigate and

prosecute the crimes they may have committed but also to really understand and address why this was an attractive choice for them to begin with home phone as attorneys say they will continue to monitor how she and her son are being treated in the refugee camp and if their safety is in danger the attorney say they'll file another motion to expedite the case for now though with ana and her son face a long tough road ahead. john honey. wow this is this is this is one of those rare news stories to where i don't even know how i fall my opinion where my opinion is because i see the points both sides make about these leaders. who because the question they have to ask yourself you know are these people are these young kids who ran off to go play around with isis are they brainwashed or are they guilty for the crimes that they were committing well i mean that's. that's the difficult part but you have to

understand because there's two very different disparate ideas there is you know the idea that they should be given a second chance because they were so young and the idea that they're naive obviously of this whole thing but i i i will save that idea that these young women are simply just were just naive and didn't know what they were doing is a dangerous precedent to set it most definitely is and there is a lot of cases that are going to be coming down the play i mean the international center for the study radicalization reports the estimate of forty one thousand foreign nationals was worth fighting for isis over forty seven hundred were women and there's another four thousand children involved with all of this as well. and some radical yet are former isis bride and activist working on counter radicalization set of the young women trying to come home does not just come to us

u.k. spacing this problem to a lot of different countries and praising the problem this former activist said look she's still a child and that she's not thinking like an adult and she needs psychiatric help she needs medication and she needs to be brought back to reality because she was so brainwashed over and over by isis so that's the question really is should these women be given a normal chance life should be can we give second chances to this. there is a possibility that some but this is this is what i mean by we have to be really careful about the situation and this is one of those places where yes you should believe women everywhere on this one of those where we're talking about a different sort of woman and as the person and job. mentioned you know we have to look at this and one of the things the u.n. security council's counter-terrorism committee had put together a report they've been doing it for years now but they put together a report called the gender dimensions of the response to returning foreign fighters

and what they do is sort of posits this idea that the gender assumption that women lack agency that they can have serious security implications by letting dangerous actors slip through the cracks in layman terms what they're saying is that we can't assume that every female who joined our uses was tricked we can assume that they were duped into joining and therefore are not responsible for the actions because we have this tendency in modern society to say that men are more rational women are more emotional which leads to this gender thinking that women aren't as responsible for their actions and their choices because we don't and that we're somehow easy the ideas that were easier to radicalized for so emotional and i'd like to do away with that because there's literally no evidence in all the study of radicalization that there is any difference between the radicalization of men and radicalization of women there is no difference in how it happens what happens i think there are a lot of girls who just you know made bad choices but this is not something where

they just got on a bus and did it they had to cross country lines they had to you know abuse passports they had to use secret apps there was the knowledge to what they were doing. to storage is going to break or bloggers don't forget to let us know what you think the coverage of facebook and twitter see our pool shows or t.v. coming up off the deep water joins us to discuss the latest version losers over the tragic use of the store clerk. the other black man that was shot about by police was grandma's backyard last year stay tuned to watching the hawks.

exists is a sticker from the water bottle phone in the stomach of a fish the brand is sponsor of the coca-cola company which sells millions of bottles of soda every day the idea was that let's tell consumers there are the bad ones there the litter bugs are trying this way industry shouldn't be blamed for all this waste the company has long promised to reuse the plastic. on. their plastic a sixty cause the only. thing you can lose that special projects funded. on the line your best bet is the end of a footy team but for now the mountains of waste only grow higher. profits on the more considered and the most needy against india encouraging on the mostly among to its nationals into any one of its neighbors as boots did more to

the right this is where pakistan is very different then then india right now or if they go on this trajectory unfortunately even not being able to be responsible players in this region the speed in the stuff and for far too long because of this ongoing conflict between these two giants in the region. has gone into the. feed. i think. the road and get the traveling across america what makes america the charlotte. here this is a weak point and the challenge done so we always are on the courageous and the. culture is really important. we're starting west with this is going to head east into the swamp we're going into the belly the the i

think i want to leave no doesn't do any more ground on the earth we may be completely different and that. with just a few short weeks before the one year anniversary of his killing it appears that there will be no justice for stefan clarke the california attorney general announced this week that the police officers who shot and killed the twenty two year old young black man and his grandmother's backyard last march will not face charges clark was shot and killed last year on march eighteenth in the meadow view neighborhood in sacramento after police responded to a nine one one call of a man breaking car windows a police helicopter supposedly identified clark as the suspect the killing made national headlines adding another name to the long and growing list of on our black men and women tragically killed by the police it's tragic us today to discuss this

latest roadblock on the road to justice is author and speaker do you watch it thanks for joining us ok. always a pleasure always under the worst of circumstances. or so a lot of times you know a very very bad move. you recently covered this. writing about call about this decision about the prosecute the officers what are some of the unanswered questions all those stories here what are some of the. answer questions about this shooting and what happened during the shooting that should concern us right off the bat so at the end of the day the biggest problem the biggest problem was the way that the district attorney in sacramento. tried to. stuff who was actually the victim so like there's a lot of holes in the case that we could talk about but the one thing they always like makes me look up and say wait a second something's not right is this person was

a. police officer shot this person why are we talking about his report why are we talking about his girlfriend a few days before the shooting would. people have arguments all of the time like this it doesn't justify murder how can you sit back and say that you know you police officers had to make a split second decision when he was running away from them like you know like i mean why be a cop afterwards you have this weird kind of controversy surrounding the body to where the sound was turned off or the body was like right after the shooting like it was another big deal and it was a long time ago and a lot of people forgot that was the but that was the big thing that made the case go viral one of the big things when everybody started following the case talking about what happened was it was a way to separate these body cameras out here so that. our law enforcement officials can be held accountable so we can know what's going on we want to know what you're talking about we want to know what do your mind when you decided to make that decision you got. broken the rules as it does they have

a list of reasons why you can buy the camera and this to me any of those reasons you know we've got a good story to get click. mansour that's the thing that the body cameras were supposed to give everyone a little more perspective and at the same time you know they were meant to protect the officer who kept saying that they didn't do anything wrong well now you have or have a situation that this. and i'm glad you brought up the district attorney and marie schubert because she is the two we know clark fled from the officers after being told to stop we know that he continued into the back yard and we know what he continued into the backyard he turned around and he was in a shooting stance with his arms extended. when will we take when will we make you know public officials and public servants. be held responsible and how do we make them held responsible for saying things such as that person's death this is

not the kind of thing that should be told to the press no matter what happens and all of it seems to be more of you know let's blame the victim he ran away into the yard into his own yard essentially because you want to hear this if it was a white person if it was me running through the street and they some curry white girl was bashing windows i don't think i would be treated that way and people act like it's such a strange thing african-american. for police officers. you know why anybody doesn't rot like when i see someone not run from a police officer or a black man i'm shocked when martin o'malley was mayor of baltimore city he implemented giuliani's broken window. led to over seven hundred thousand illegal. mostly black men for things like jaywalking things like that because stats policing became

a thing so it makes him look like he's tough on crime it makes the cops look like you know they're doing their job but at the same time you get like zero convictions and you're ruining the lives of people so with their culture. and so many different poorer so many different communities across the country with their culture you created this monster when we see you go we don't feel like sitting in a box for seventy two hours witnessing the commission we don't feel like that this . is you know you've got people coming in there who are trying to get over their addictions dollars going to florida right next to you people. doing stuff all over to you know what that you don't want to the average rewarding the use of an open bottle or something ridiculous like you don't even want to be very introspective here now you didn't need to ask what was. you said statistics i want to read you these statistics that you actually talked about your article the national police misconduct reporting project found that some from two thousand and nine to two thousand to three thousand two hundred thirty eight criminal cases were brought against officers the conviction rate against these officers of the three thousand

cases was only thirty three percent of that thirty three percent thirty six percent of those convictions actually wound up with officers serving jail time. i mean we know you have a victim. a police officer last year was convicted and everybody was like we convicted a couple but he got community service right but guess what he did doesn't he did he plan to drugs on a kid and they ended up doing a couple of months in jail right so the kid who had the drugs planted on him actually got more then the cop who actually had the drugs way to get him from the planet a bit to try to pass it off as being like some sharp you know. mission that i would have you know who some of the drugs was using him and i'm like a people what sort of top actually got community service and he gets he got the you got to go. really. america one of the things

it is that this is america out of there like something is that. was not the. letter of the things and i want to ask you you know on social media a lot of people called this rightfully called it a tragedy but since we've seen it we haven't seen a whole lot of actual change in any policy around since you know we've all been through this for years we haven't seen real policy change our politicians and activists now they seem that they're more in love with their own voices than actually doing something about what's happening on the ground is that a lot of talk and not a lot of action. problems this is what the voices. yes really. more becoming more familiar with this brand new wave of. activists the self-appointed leader of the whatever oppressed group you've represented vis so

it's just going to see how it was developing i know that when i think of activism i think daisy's going to get out of these people out of jail and stop and twenty one savagely being deported like the modern malcolm x. you know what i'm saying when you look at this organization when you look at these organizations that are actually. you know trying to talk about the work and talk about the has to exit the front of receipts you know is that they got some big budgets and they got some people back in there so when you accept that a receipt you know i just hear them say you don't you believe me you actually get hold of me accountable before my platform and for the money that i got to do things and even though i didn't do nothing you can actually why i didn't do anything you bullying me. look like a bully. i wanted to let you have that we all want it because look you can say something that's great and it's great to bring awareness with a certain point we brought enough awareness we all know there was a problem where yeah there's

a saying that everybody's aware at this point what happens next you know that's the question we start asking and that's what we need to start seeing happen so what in your mind needs like what's number one what is the first thing about transparency through every community who try to advocate or solicit people for fun so they can advocate for the betterment of whatever group they're trying to represent but whatever group they're trying to you know. towards i want to know we i want to know in a check or give a muscle poor or from pulling up whatever you don't i want to know what's happened in the same thing we want from the government the same thing we're going to do you are going to take you so much always a pleasure. the movies the day of the sky exploded meteor the calm a deep impact an armageddon all feature asteroids or comets that could destroy earth in the world of film beast killer rocks from outer space are defeated by
