ecuadorian all star teams hides and allowed the metropolitan police to go inside the embassy where a party joining us on tried to resist arrest and then he was physically bundled up and put in to a police baton and taken into police custody now very soon afterwards we learned that julian assange just electical asylum to citizenship had been revoked by the ecuadorian authorities take a listen to what lendl and the president of ecuador had to say about it told. on ops that the discourteous and aggressive behavior of mr julian are shown to give the hostile and threatening declarations of his annoyed organization. and especially the transgression of international treaties to have led the situation to a point where the stardom of mr assad regime is unsustainable there are no longer the horrible really kind of boils down to two different issues but you sort of came
3:05 am
together over the past eighteen months one is that the ecuadorian authorities didn't like the fact that they said julian assange once was interfering in the international affairs in the affairs of other countries through his online activity through his activities as editor of wiki leaks but also there was this kind of domestic dispute bubbling beneath the surface as well last year julian assange was given a list of conditions that he needed to add here to if he wanted to stay on the good side of his neck for dorian whosis he was told they needed to tidy up offer him self clean his ball free and pay for his own food to pay for certain on three clean up after his talents which they threaten term leave and subsequently did british officials are pretty pleased about what's happened to will welcome the news this morning that the metropolitan police have arrested studio no siree.
3:06 am
mr speaker this goes to show that in the united kingdom no one is above the law. but what we've shown today is that no one is above the law julian assange is no hero he is hidden from the truth for years and years but also a very courageous decision by president arroyo in ecuador to resolve the situation we witnessed at the end but at the very least of the embassy chapter of the julian assange i'm stubbles and we're moving on to perhaps a rather truncated chapter of an illegal extradition battle. boyko there were two new songe sought refuge in the ecuadorian embassy in twenty twelve the u.s. was then investigating the publication by wiki leaks of classified military documents relating to the war in afghanistan it also looked into the songes release of cyber tools used by the cia and all of hillary clinton's private e-mails which is claimed was part of alleged russian interference in the twenty sixteen presidential

3:09 am
i will. worries about the presence this sets and the julian assange will get a fair trial. it has all the sort of indications of the kind of backroom deal that's been done between a three way deal between the government of ecuador the british government and the united states government the danger here is not going to face justice in the united states what he is going to face is a secret grand jury proceeding most likely in northeastern virginia most likely will be ruled on by a judge who has ruled against every single whistleblower. under the obama administration including thomas drake john kerry aku and many others ok so this is from from a legal point of view of justice point of view this is a total stitch up joyce knowledge will not face due process or justice she's going
3:10 am
to face. a simulacra of it but not the real thing and that's going to be the the injustice of this whole proceedings so what we're seeing right now is the criminalization of journalism the criminalization of publishing. a supine mainstream media that is not protesting what's going on even though it's in their interests this issue they've ignored that and instead you have authoritarian operatives in high positions wielding a tremendous power and are threatening to demolish the fourth estate as we once knew it the rest of the songe call will and why detention with thousands across the globe rallying in support of the strain borne whistle blow from to budapest by tests have been gathering outside u.s. embassies expressing concern over sandy's possible extradition to free the whistleblower. plan to take place later this sunday across

a stray but the sentiment has been echoed to you by human rights organizations and politicians across the world my colleague discuss the reaction without any profession. a lot of these skeletons in the closets of the world's mightiest the most powerful probably will never be pulled out but if it wasn't for julian assad some people wouldn't even start thinking merely that some of this nasty and gruesome stuff even existed and indeed a very important part of his legacy probably the most important part will always be that he encourage so many people to think and ask questions about what. most powerful people in charge of this world could be hiding and this can truly be felt through the things that are being said by the activists right now in reaction to what's happening with the whistleblower let's take a look at what the american civil liberties union came out with any prosecution by
3:12 am
the united states of. wiki leaks publishing operations would be unprecedented and you should open the door to criminal investigations of news organizations moreover prosecuting a foreign publisher for violating u.s. secrecy rules would set i'm especially dangerous precedent for u.s. journalists who routinely violate foreign secrecy laws to tip information vital to the public's interest cumin rights watch are now actually saying that every news organization is in danger and this kind of sentiment is being echoed by so many activists and activists organizations right now they are worried that we're now potentially in a new year where the keyword is danger for journalists or whistleblowers a to those
3:13 am
who support him he is you know. a hero here is an award winning journalist but there are those who hates am out here as a whistle blower a villain how is. he regarded well some people don't see a difference between behavior to a list and a whistleblower some people do but you can argue that in any case this julian assange situation and his whole fate well always be intertwined with the notion of freedom of speech and it seems that any kind of attempts by the us political elite to paint him with that brush and to try and convince the world that he is not a journalist will always be challenged by the world's most renowned whistleblowers and investigative journalists as well images that work with those in buses invoicing the case secret police into the embassy to drug a publisher if like you to know it was winning journalism out of the building are
3:14 am
going to end up in the history books critics may cheer but this is a dark moment for press freedom we queue leaks is a publisher charges now brought in connection with its material or any attempt to extradite assange to united states for prosecution under deeply flawed could you know of the espionage act nine hundred seventeen is an attack on all of us the d.-o. g. cis part of what is science did to just to fire his prosecution beyond allegedly helping manning get the documents is that he encouraged manning to get more documents for him to publish journalists do this with sources constantly is a criminalization of journalism it's hard to acknowledge the political undertones of this case and how have politicians been weigh in since songes arrest well i would to raise them a said no one is above the law and it looks like the likes of the u.s. the u.k. and to the current government of ecuador will continue to team up in saying that
3:15 am
these suspected criminals should be prosecuted and they will keep on pushing that line but at the same time even in the western world and also in other parts of the world there will be politicians who. you keep on saying things like phony pretext and they will contribute to treat this case as pure hypocrisy of the western political elites. this whole story with the persecution and hounding with establishing inhumane living conditions is consigning to oblivion the rights of the freedom of speech and disseminating information that is something that it's absolute if you think that i mean that we are talking about that. show on the ward . abuses and by all asian of human and international right. we absolutely reject the julian assange just naturalization and the handover of this australian journalist to the united kingdom in a shameful act surrendering our sovereignty the extradition of julian the sons to
3:16 am
the us for exposing evidence of atrocities in iraq and afghanistan should be opposed by the british government and any case now whatever the people say it still all depends on the next steps by u.s. police and u.s. prosecutors so we will be watching out for that. he watching the weekly here now to see we'll have more stories for you just. a max keiser one more of my guide to financial survival this is on a device used by professional scallywags to earn money. that's right these hedge funds are simply not accountable and we're just getting more and more to the. totally destabilize the global economy you need to protect yourself and get in for

3:18 am
a former nazi death camp medina court jennifer picks up the story. of some a boar was a nazi run killing center and an intense secret very few survived to average taliban scream chorus. another unit arrived once they were already undressed they apparently understood where they were being taken naked and all in fear they ran away but where could they run everyone rushed to the barbed wire fences and there they were met with the fire of machine guns and rifles many people died from the bullets the rest were driven into the gas chambers the fires were burning into late at night that's all
3:19 am
flames illuminated the evening black sky with its terrifying light the whole camp and the surrounding territory. like thunder the screams of people rode over the death camp six hundred people exhausted yearning for freedom rushed forward shouting here a in this single impulse the jews of russia and poland the netherlands and from us czech is a vacuum in germany united it was only then that the tower guards realized that something with. wrong in the camp and opened fire. and like to it there is nothing left of sabi bore the extermination camp was
3:20 am
destroyed by the nazis after the uprising and trees planted to conceal evidence it ever existed but there is concern that key parts of its history are now being overlook the this is a matter for the whole of europe through in the so people come. russians dutch french they were also people from other countries and that's what you know this pain the loss of people who were tortured there and died so that we never repeat the polish government started construction plans back in two thousand and fourteen for a new visitor center at the site of the former death camp russia says that it was unfairly sidelines and the design of the museum especially as a soffit soldier was behind the here royd group fold and escape for sabi war the committee behind the project includes representatives from slovakia the netherlands poland and israel as the construction of the museum moved forward to poland opened
3:21 am
the betting for those who wanted to take part in setting up the museum interior but again all three applications by russian museums all private entities were not approved by war so the polish russian relations are complicated and certainly when it comes to world war two they were complicated so i think the poles rather take control themselves of the narrative they're afraid of the russian narrative and they also don't want to give russia too much credit for liberating poland you can use history as a weapon and the poles have been weaponized in history as a as many people have been doing some may call it historical amnesia some like paul and ministry of culture and national heritage say it's a logical decision the international steering committee maybe now to mississippi continuing cooperation. between its current members who have already worked together for ten years in order to smilie complete advance works on the new memorial site the cultural stand off aside it's high time avril one as remembered
3:22 am
for their suffering and bravery let me remind you of something where the seventieth anniversary of the liberation of the auschwitz death was broken out death care was observed in poland latin reputing was not invited and given the fact that it was liberated by the red army i mean this is quite quite outrageous i would say so what we're seeing now is a continuation of this policy which is trying to. keep the russians out of participating in the. effort to present the history of sobibor and the suffering of the of the inmates the horrible mass murders that took place there. now u.s. democratic presidential hopeful has sparked debate by proposing a bill that would see african-americans receive reparations senator cory booker says this would go towards compensating for the suffering of that enslaved
3:23 am
ancestors were a recent poll found only twenty one percent of voters actually support the move ducted it would entitle an official acknowledgment of the legacy of american slavery and compensation payments to those still affected by discrimination as a result we have to recognize that everybody did not start out on an equal footing in this country and in particular black people have not. and so we have got to recognize that and do something about that and give folks a lift up i believe it's time to start that national full blown conversation about reparations so that we can as a nation do what's right and begin to heal there are massive disparities that must be addressed so we're going to do everything we can to put resources into distressed communities and improve lives for those people who have been hurt from
3:24 am
the legacy of slavery well fighting their respective corners on the issue we have from the conservative commentator anthony brian logan and also from attorney and author resurfacing. you could have identified the former slave master in a former slave or at a moment but we're now winds are at fifty years past a particular point in time who is going to pay people who did not have slaves nobody i left a day in twenty nineteen was a slave back then so what do we gain pay for who is going to pay we're right again pay it's no more than a campaign promise from democratic hopefuls trying to get some kind of attention now you're ok with the l less and that's the most ridiculous thing i've ever heard they provide economic restitution to those people now if i came into your house mr a.b.l. and i stole a thousand dollars from you and then i died or if i saw a million dollars from you and then i'd die would you say oh well reasoned i so that money doesn't matter anymore no he would go talk to my children ok children
3:25 am
are still living off the benefits of that million dollars just because somebody has grand days dose of it doesn't mean i'm responsible for it if somebody is granddad was so you know a killer and then they found out one hundred years later you go after the kids and say ok you get to go to jail now or you get to pay back some money because of what your grandfather d. and makes no since you know who did it he should have been able to catch him why they were alive punished him why they were alive we want to focus on is the economic harm that was done to black people if we really break down with slavery was people were brought from across the water to work and that was free labor so what we have here a race of years hundreds of years of systematic distant discrimination and shutting out of x. economic access the black people and that has to be repaid who's going to pay it you're talking about a government that government is funded by the people that means me that means you will pay for it so how does it make any sense like i say it would have been more
3:26 am
let me present how many hands you are mostly under paid as slave when were parades in is would have been do which is at the end to slavery not right now it makes no sense to so argue me it is no logic here. america's never even study the effects of slavery on black people they never sat down and said we know that as a government we think this this makes this experience but we don't even know how far that experience reaches because no one's ever study it how much do we owe black people no one's ever studied and why because the government has literally buried it had it paid out everybody else and turned it back on the black people in america who he was due to want to just drive and he did and they handed three hundred and one example later i didn't hear hopefully my generation will stand up and say that the buck stops here so we don't have to go on with this any longer that's how the weeklies looking at say fossett i thanks for watching but back again at the top of .
3:27 am
the bus to the previous stage of my career was over everyone wondered what i was going to do next the multiple different clubs on one hand it is logical to sit in the home field where everything is familiar on the other i wanted a new challenge and a fresh perspective i'm used to surprising you and i saw one of you. i'm going to talk about football not the or else because think i was going to the. by the way what is it that's like here.
3:28 am
us veterans who come back from war often tell the same stories. we're going after the people who were 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. that says we're going to attack and destroy the government in seven countries in five years americans pay for the wars with their money on those with their lives 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 for an easy no for.
