good morning just. international life from me kevin 0 in him to choose their morning world news update then solving this the u.s. has ordered an additional 1000 troops to the middle east amid an escalation in tensions with washington says the forces of for defensive purposes to address threats in the region i have authorized approximately 1000 additional troops for defensive purposes to address air naval and ground based threats in the middle east we have received credible intelligence on hostile behavior by iranian forces and their proxy groups that threaten the united states personnel and interests across the region. what comes after u.s. central command released new images it claims are of an iranian crew removing unexploded mine from a tanker that was attacked last thursday in the gulf of a man while washington is accusing iran of plotting the attack vehemently denies

all the claims branding america statements sabotage diplomacy caleb maupin takes a closer look at that. the u.s. navy has released photos of the incident that took place thursday in the gulf of oman just off the shores of the islamic republic of iran the incident happened and we now have these photos from the united states navy and these photos are in full color and they purport to show the same as what earlier black and white footage released by the pentagon also showed they intend to show essentially we see in the image a speedboat approaching the ship and removing an unexploded limp in mine now this matches the earlier footage and according to the pentagon this shows that iran must be responsible for the attack because they say that the iranian speedboat was on the scene fast enough and removed the unexploded limpet mine with such precision that therefore that proves that somehow iran must have been responsible for the

attack this is what we've heard from u.s. officials iran is responsible for the attack based on video evidence and the resources and proficiency needed to quickly remove the unexploded limpid mine the pentagon took the very unusual step of identifying the aircraft that actually took this footage apparently these are still from footage taken from a m h 60 our surveillance helicopter that was flying above the scene and apparently the imagery at lower altitude drones were involved we have p. 8 maritime patrol craft also involved in the surveillance so essentially on thursday june 13th about 40 kilometers or 25 miles off the coast of iran we have this attack taking place roughly at dawn the 1st ship that was hit was a norwegian craft the other craft that was hit was a japanese own petrochemical tanker and apparently the craft from norway that was hit was can to it was carrying

a flammable hydrocarbon mixture and it was traveling between the united arab emirates and taiwan and the japanese crap that was hit was apparently hit twice into. 3 hours now the united states has said based on its photographs and video that iran is responsible for the incident however job feeds a reef the foreign minister of the islamic republic of iran says the opposite he says that iran is not responsible for this attack and did not carry it out and he cited the fact that iran was 1st on the scene to rescue the sailors and take them to receive medical treatment and he has alleged that it is possibly the enemies of iran in the region that are responsible for the attack in an attempt to derail negotiations that are starting to take place as iran works to preserve its nuclear deal wolf but what's going on in a special advisor to the e.u. foreign policy chief believes it's actually double trump who's in control of u.s. policy towards to run right now that came up when nothing he told she spoke to

a tease sophie shevardnadze on this channel you can watch the full interview on our website and streaming it out he took home. unfortunately at the moment it seems to me that the u.s. is iran policy has a very clear author and that author is not the president of the united states i think unfortunately on iran he's actually been led into a very different direction as i said particularly by john bolton who's positions on iran date back way way way. down sort of back the line you know in the bush 2 administration even earlier. well we'll continue to track the potentially big story of what's happening or not happening around or just off the waters there are the ramifications of it buildup continues but a side of this story as hollywood talks about the pentagon's military adventures around the world of the way they affect the environment around us not just war zones in fact the studies reveal that the u.s.

military produces more greenhouse gases that entire countries like sweden or denmark most emissions are directly due to defense related consumption from the use of jet diesel fuel don't courters got more. forget single use straws and plastic bags there's a much bigger problem wreaking havoc on mother nature its war the pentagon's wars to be exact i . 59000000 metric tons of greenhouse gases that's how much the u.s. defense department spewed into the atmosphere in 2017 alone brown university says the d.o.d. is both the largest oil consumer and institutional polluter in the world there are entire countries that don't emit as many fumes portugal finland and sweden to name a few how is that possible well the u.s.

military does have a presence in over 150 countries it's 560000 buildings worldwide make up 40 percent of its greenhouse emissions the rest is from military operations which in 2016 used up 86000000 barrels of fuel that's in afghanistan pakistan syria you get the picture and it's not like americans are electing people who understand wars environmental impact the department of defense must do more than simply acknowledge take piecemeal action to address climate change while it increasingly threatens in homs oh militaries infrastructure and operations even the pentagon itself says it's worried about climate change the facts of the changing climate are a national security issue with potential impacts to department of defense missions operational plans and installations the top brass might say they're concerned but their words certainly are not matching their actions in fact the u.s.

military budget may see its 5th consecutive year of growth in 2020 despite spending more than the next strongest militaries combined the d.o.d. is not cutting back it's actually preparing for more military ventures and considering u.s. iranian tensions are escalating in the persian gulf there are few signs of any turning back. the last 4. major national security threats that both have all of them identified. as being one of those huge threats and yet it soon activities are leading to exacerbate there is this serious threat to global security i didn't answer which is crime and yet rather than doing anything serious to tackle the problem literally expenditures do seem to be oriented towards creating global insecurity climate change and in many

other ways. you know poland's to get an extra 1000 troops to take in from the contingent already in germany later in the program we'll see what might be behind there we location. but next. controversial psychologist and author jordan peterson has launched a free speech platform called think spot and it's got one key principle there's no censorship the alternative social media site will only remove content if ordered to do so by u.s. authorities and what it does not actually launched yet has already caused quite a stir as artie's police explains. if they won't let you in the club just to set up your own that's the philosophy behind a brand new anti censorship social media platform that's hitting the web this summer i think spot will be an intellectual playground for censorship free discourse that's according to its founder controversial academic and bestselling

author jordan peterson the canadian professor is a divisive figure hated by the left and della fide by the right earlier this year he was snubbed by the most intellectual of british institutions cambridge university he was supposed to have a visiting fellow ship that this sort of him but that offer was rescinded after a backlash from star students this was jordan peterson's response to the decision at the time what do you think it says about free speech in britain the cambridge university made an announcement this week saying they were going to invite you to speak i don't think it says more about the nature of the universities in general than about free speech in general i mean i don't see all that my decision been taishan has compromised more in free speech ability because i have so many platforms on which i can discuss my ideas according to peterson's latest video

think sport will be a subscription service where controversial creators will be able to monetize their free speech once you're on our platform we will take you down and list were ordered to by a us court of law that's the idea so we're trying to make an anti censorship platform one of the b. to test is of the site will be anti feminist you tube or call benjamin his you tube channel saga on of a cat was recently downgraded after he made offensive comments about raping a brit. politician he was also banned from crowdfunding site patriot last year olds right poster boy milo yet not police suffered the same fate for jordan peterson and his community patriotic actions to block these prominent commentators was the final straw doesn't look like moving to an alternative provider an

alternative commercial product provider that's out of or bailiwick out of our control is going to be viable critics argue that an anti censorship platform could in practice turn into a safe place for extremists and the person who most publicly to test the platform is somebody who's not only joked about raping somebody but then doubled down on it saying well if i was junk enough maybe i would you know this is this man is very dangerous because i mean he's interested in much overlap with mine and i don't mean to student of you and many others that you and pizza is interested in but because he has that learning and speak some sense this is a good american but very to support the creation of peterson's think spot say that western society need somewhere to exchange ideas without fear of reprisals and clampdowns the major point that we have to defend and cultivate prioritize wedding gaging and the robust discussion in public life is that no situation

anywhere as an adult is free of risk in that we enter into these things to try and get something out of it it's hard to argue with the numbers alternative thinkers like jordan peterson and the rest of his self-styled intellectual dark web have attracted millions of subscribers that suggests that audience is all gagging for their free speech barrows not to be gagged. controversial burn a word in religious symbols has been passed in canada's quebec province for. people working in the public sector lawmakers have called the move the right to have secular public services and separate state religion the legislation will affect government employees police and teachers for example applied to muslim headscarves jewish skullcaps and other various symbols last minute changes to the bill also included the introduction of inspectors who will be tasked with ensuring people do

abide by this new law but some in quebec of criticize the move for violating basic rights. the prime minister has once again suggested the quebec values are incompatible with fundamental rights the 16th of june 21000 is a very said date that has just entered the history books of quebec a date that will forever mark a vision of quebec that divides rather than brings together that excludes rather than includes that stigmatizes rather than reconciled. will there be police officers going off to people to check if they have religious signs we don't know it's not clear we didn't even have time to analyze his modification clearly they did it in a very undemocratic way well for more on this photo we spoke to a university lecture to our own ahmet say on travis patrol leader of the canadian nationalist party down the rabbit hole we go because what is religious and what it's not i tend to believe that politics and religion are intertwined necessarily

to a certain degree and at the end of the day when you say wedding rings could be seen as a religious symbolism the next step out of that could be the apparel people wear not just talking about face veils that dresses women wear or their clothes men wear and what this is really pointing to is a code back that is known in canada to be fierce about protecting their identity and that is why the combat voters voted in a nationalist populist government with the ca hume and right now as the premier missile a guy out and south says they're getting exactly what they voted for. well the problem is whenever you're prevented from doing something that you feel that you should have the right to do or that something that's so important to you on a very fundamental level like as some as many muslims say about their religion you

are really setting it up for a lot of class i think both demonstrations and likely physical clashes because people believe that their existence is on the line and they feel that they are justified to use any means necessary to fight for what they feel is their right so anybody feels that their rights are being taken away from them then we can expect there to be as i said i think physical bunches and it's going to all be under the rubric or the guise of islamophobia they're going to say it's a blatant attack against a particular group and when you're fighting for that cause this has you know potential ramifications globally where people say oh we thought canada was such a well going diverse country but it seems that at least part of it back islamophobia and who knows what kind of repercussions we can expect moving forward when people from other countries might decide to make a statement beyond

a simple protest. i had a mental health crisis that has to be addressed a police commissioner who speaks out about a series of suicides in the ranks of new york's finest to talk about when we come back.

starting really in the 1980 s. under reagan at that turn deregulation you had the fed takeover and their sole purpose at that point was to try to squeeze workers completely out of the global economy so wages never went up real terms sensed that but stock markets keep going up and the reason to justify this is that the fed will say we need to try to take care of deflation even now that they are causing to function in an environment where their money printing is increasing the. morning police in new york city after chain of suicide deaths among offices in the latest case a 29 year old officer killed himself right outside the precinct where he worked he is the 3rd death by suicide of the city's ranks in the last 2 weeks then the police commissioner described the situation as

a mental health crisis that had to be addressed. depression is real and people need to understand that this is that ok i don't feel i don't feel myself i feel down i'll bring myself out of it sometimes it's a downward spiral that unless there is intervention from the outside it's not going to stop and something bad is going to happen you need to talk to someone and. we have one nonprofit organization that click states will police suicide says the number of offices of kill themselves actually exceeds the number of deaths well judy it also says the numbers have been on the rise since 2016 a former policeman told us they simply face too much pressure in the us police officers are the single most pressure tested men and women on the planet everything they're doing is criticized by the public their personal problems are being criticized by their families and bowl then their behavior on both calls which is a mixture of both personal and private or private and professional actions are

being criticized by the command staff the public doesn't understand the pressure that the street cop shout that for the 1st miners do and that goes all the way up to the detectives but for the most part it is it's a basic concept that these men and women are in a daily pressure cooker from every single angle of their lives and they have no they have no escape from that. special but poland's preparing 6 sites across the country to accommodate a 1000 extra u.s. troops that are being relocated from germany moscow expressed concerns the move reflected aggressive intentions but as mayor for national explains next in fact some think it's washington's way of exerting pressure on but laden. in the city cross that suddenly became news for germany when the american president pledged to send his polish counterpart more u.s. troops from their neighborhood we have 52000 troops in germany. and germany is not living up to what they're supposed to be doing with respect to later

and poland is after you graduate you thank you very much strategically 1000 soldiers less than germany and a 1000 more in poland makes new big difference so what was the motive i think there are several aims to what trump is doing one of them i think has to do with putting pressure on germany so he wants to play the polish card against the german trant just trying to put more pressure on germany that germany is paying more for the military budget back in 2014 all nato member states promised to meet the guideline of spending 2 percent of their g.d.p. on defense within a decade half way to that deadline it's clear berlin will likely fail and that's driving washington nuts it's not yet clear when or how the american troops stationed here in germany will relocate to poland but trump's mere hint about them crossing the border was enough to put their lead on high alert and that was the

purpose and the work we've heard from parties usually on opposing sides of the political spectrum for germany's own sake we need to finally in a significant and permanent way that reflects our global commitments increase defense spending. making sure the military is ready for the future is a question of solidarity with our e.u. and nato partners it's hard to say where they do though further than the words recent poll suggest that the german public is deeply divided over defense spending increases but it seems donald trump's press backed by steps like they want to really kate u.s. troops from here to poland leave little choice some welcome this pressure after older lynn made these commitments before trump became president this has nothing to do with the american presidents but with our responsibilities to our soldiers and to europe and credible burden sharing but others disagree they see or germany will

see its biggest military budgets rise since the cold war by more than 5000000000 euros that's according to angle merkel but even that falls short of what nato and trump want somehow he's changed that for make america great again to make nato great again that we're going to make the europeans pay more for their defense what they never. what they never point out of course is defense against whom they say nato is not directed against russia although everybody knows that nato is directed against russia even though i don't think anybody honestly believes there is a russian territorial threat to any of these countries every new member states is at the heart of the holy war machine of its need to represent us and we have to overcome these war mostly because he's war machine all the good news out is out of his doing what we need is to reduce the troops at the border to russia to bring the troops home the old slogan of the peace movement is actually the defense spending

is not the only bone of contention between washington and the lean on just one of many aspects that separate poland from germany. result of blows and contracts for one terrorist and sanction is the other and soldiers shifted from germany to poland is the most recent of these punitive measures but unlikely the last. in japan the victims of a $948.00 sterilization program were appealing a government compensation offer saying it didn't cover the gravity of the harm the

victim suffered the law which was suspended in 1906 allowed the government to forcibly sterilized disabled people to prevent eroded 3 transmission of diseases but compensation was only offered in april last year last month the court rejected victims' demands for more money because the statue of limitations of past he spoke to a relative of a victim who told us about the torment his sister in law had gone through. your stand there like so they are going to get it all more or. less ok. my sister in law was sterilized when she was 15 years old well she was in the 3rd grade of junior high school until the age of 30 show off and suffered from domino pains when i 1st saw her really big scar that was when i knew something was very wrong in the old records are found it was written that my sister underwent for sterilization due to a hereditary development disability i don't believe my mother in law gave consent

for the peroration because their disability was not inherited. sickness or not or the hole in the list is. the chief judge declared that the old eugene explore was unconstitutional he also showed that it was impossible for those who suffered from forced sterilization to demand an apology and compensation from the japanese government of the 20 victims who filed the lawsuit it's only my sister and one other woman who have managed to obtain official records relating to their sterilization the others don't have them it was a member of the japanese parliament that introduced the legislation that means the

government is responsible for the matter i think the japanese government should offer proper project to the victims. up to date that saw the news rob so far thanks for watching i'm kevin own hero mosco on the great tuesday. oh why a paradise with sum up all year round turned into a round the experimentation field but agricultural chemicals we know that these chemicals have consequences they are major irritants there's no question otherwise why would that the chemical company workers themselves be geared up that suited up locals attempt to combat the on regulated experiments but often in day you have

many of these people where one foot into the biotech pharma and the other foot in the government regulatory bodies this kind of collusion is reprehensible while the battle goes on the chemicals continue to poison hawaii and its people so one has to ask the question whether there is a form of environmental research going on in hawaii whether these companies feel they can get away with this because the people have less political power. seem wrong. well we just don't all. that needs to get to shape out these days to come to advocate and engagement equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart when she's to look for common ground.

i'm actually i was or was not very. well i guess it's time to find out what's happening in the big bad world let's talk with stacey hey you know 1st i want to say that we are going to go on our summer vacation so you will see some summer solutions pretty soon and we are planning those and those are looking really good just a little housekeeping for those out there but i want to look at this headline to set up the other headlines in this article and this is something that we have been saying for 10 years is that you know it's a it's a game of capital versus labor privileged by the central banks versus everybody else and there's no headline but this and this is from last week and but it's

really relevant to my headlines today stock market jumps as disappointing jobs report fuels hope for a fed rate cut so there's a real conflict between the needs of the wall street speculators and the rest of the population you've said this before is that you know anything any time is good for the worker is bad for wall street so we've had now 35 years of great for wall street and any even little hint that wages are starting to rise or or workers are starting to have some sort of dignity again wall street crashes the fed steps and says go away workers we're going to smash you we're going to save on wall street well we have something called the business cycle and sometimes you'd have inflation as expressed by a rise in prices including wages was forced to.
