a region in belgium has passed legislation that bans traditional ways of slaughtering animals and for the muslim and jewish faiths. kosher slaughter requires the animals to be alive and healthy that killed by having their throats cut pre-selling is not always used which is why the practice has been banned in separate countries the new law in belgium has prompted much debate but animal welfare groups say the law is not about targeting religions. it is absolutely not a ban on religious slaughter not at all it is a ban on slaughter without stunning even if you follow all the rules and use a very sharp blade and you do everything according to religious tradition even then the animal will suffer i think the bounds of more to do with the 2 legged animals than with the 4 legged ones if there is one positive thing that comes out of this latest attempt to curtail religious freedom it's the bringing closer together of
2:10 pm
the jewish and muslim communities everyone will just do our home or in some corner hidden from view i don't think that's what they want to achieve here in r.t. our panel looked at what the new law might mean for religious freedom and animal cruelty. it is the horton debate the issue to see. whose death is quicker historically for millennia jews have been more busy merciful towards animals to eat well i'm sure no one really is cruel to animals on purpose but the fact remains that killing an animal when you really don't have to is always going to be cruel so no matter how you're going to kill the animal there is no nice way of taking away our life which we don't have to take away well from if you're going to spect of a cause if it is a step in the right direction to be a bit less cruel then to be more cruel if you like but the fact remains that we don't need to be doing this all together so it is it is progress you know it's
2:11 pm
about it out there animals are stunned before they die but slitting anyone's throat you know it can never be done in a kind way. a standard in arabic it's a law is what is lawful and clean and they have a standard for you to call it organic in our days so we need to have better standards for production of eggs out of a husbandry animal welfare animal slaughter we can't have that on regulated use of slaughter and industries we have people who have been incarcerated for mass killing coming out and then becoming swordsman just to get their kicks out sorting animals well i think there are issues in their way how i killed and a lot of slaughterhouse workers you know they come from poor backgrounds and they have no other choice but to do a job like this i mean even all of us children if you were asked what do we want to do as adults no one would say i want to kill an animal after animal for 8 hours every day it's just not a job that anyone wants to be doing so by eating everything that is actual of fascism thing that is a form of fascism is not up to you to tell religious minorities and one or 2 groups around the world how to live ultimately this is
2:12 pm
a test of tolerance and well fact entirely freedom. of religious beliefs. fine then don't eat animals but those who want to should but those standards should be of the highest order people working in those slaughterhouses and in those industries they are suffering as well when you watch documentaries interviewing those workers they are suffering from mental health low pay horrible working conditions they get a lot of diseases they is very very monotone as warrigal they are to get over underpaid for millenia now we have seen religious slaughter accepted as long as it's practice humanely and in accordance with religious practices the can be. more humane the deaths the animal is going through and you can only say something is humane it would be willing to swap places with these animals but i don't think any of your interviewees or any of us in fact would like to swap places with did these poor animals whom we kill by the 1000000000 you know 56000000 animals are killed every single year whenever i see a chick the truckload of chicken goes to this slaughter house
2:13 pm
in winter or in the hot days of summer. feels the pain. but i wouldn't have it. to come as far. as to see it should be banned because if it true it would be banned. this is all this will solve part of the problem of dominic and will definitely will not go with malcolm for you see how much discussion we have to have about things that are less cruel less this less that how about we just don't know most all together which is actually the natural instinct that humans have you know when we grow up as children we love to play with animals would love to cuddle them as well one 3rd of the chickens coming to stun sort of process makes them forbid and for people at muslims and jews to eat even some practicing christians now the question is religious freedom are you ok with religious groups having the freedom to kosher or not. on the way the big name

voices in hollywood consider themselves to be woke progressive extolling values of tolerance and liberalism but not so much tolerance when it comes to conservatives actors debra messing and eric mccormack are calling for the list of attendees at double trump's recent beverly hills fundraiser to be made public because apparently celebrities should not be able to support the president please print a list of all attendees the public has of right to know haiti a chart kindly reports and everyone attending this event so the rest of us can be clear about who we don't want to work with blanks conservatives are calling it totalitarian liberalism i don't blame you i understand i wish i could denounce trump as i was offered quite a bit in return and it would make my life easier but i have refused to do so as i believe he is great for on nation and people you are entitled to your beliefs let others have that they're pushing the case that falls apart from the sheer weight of its lunacy is lol very hollywood community needs to be purged of this social and
2:18 pm
intellectual hygiene problem called conservative thinking but to be fair if people are taking a political stand going to a fundraiser shouldn't they be public about it aren't political donations a matter of public record well if you only would stars have found out that leaning . rightward is pretty bad for their career james woods was declared to be a racist when it became clear that he supported donald trump furthermore stacey dash who is a mexican was declared to be racist when it turned out that she was a fan of the donald what's the nastiest thing someone in hollywood has said to you about your politics everybody tells me i'm racist i'm a black mexican it's absolute white cursing people have actually said to me you're not black enough is the same mysterious having white people with ugly sweaters at christmas and grandma drunken i'd knock the snow white people and now they say black people have to think act speak and lick a certain way in order to be black enough hollywood conservatives routinely conceal
2:19 pm
their views fearing it could be a career killer to not follow the party line interestingly susan sarandon the leftist actress has also become the target of a lot of hate not for being a conservative but for being a hardcore bernie crab who refuses to march in lockstep behind the d.m. see if you don't go to that liberal fundraiser if you're not a big guy you're not in iowa. you're not in the club and you're not being hired i mean it's a very lonely existence out there but it's a toxic environment and they they that is they react viscerally to the fact that you don't agree with them and like being with conservatives. there's a whole bunch of them that. people don't really. give a give a lot of attention to it's old news that hollywood leans towards the dems during the 2017 midterm elections more than $4000000.00 was donated by top hollywood exacts and stars now 99.7 percent of that money actually went toward the democrats
2:20 pm
that's according to hollywood reporter that cites the official results and statistics from the federal elections commission and hollywood's top $100.00 list only 3 have donated to republicans and during the 2016 elections 90 percent of hollywood's donations went to hillary clinton they even made an amusing ad only way we can prove that used by having lots of famous people lots of famous people lots and lots of famous people just a ton of famous people repeating how important poor and important or important how important it is. kollywood has even threatened to take action against those who don't adhere to their liberal values remember george's anti abortion law well there was a call for a boycott of the state we cannot in good conscience continue to recommend the industry remain in georgia if h.b. 481 becomes legal the movie world has always pushed back against traditional values however it also glamorizes well and the american dream values that are very
2:21 pm
important to american conservatives now hollywood is one of america's most powerful institutions and there is no question that it is not acting when it comes to its feelings about the donald the more you hate the more creative you hate especially in hollywood the more you. achieve and seek favor of your fellow hollywood types who in their right. mind in hollywood that would ever want anybody to know that they're exercising their 1st amendment right to support a candidate sometimes people really don't care necessarily for trump as much as they do consider this to be a good business move there are people who contribute to democratic causes republican and the like but it's a it's a it's a super side packed for you too openly in the hollywood or among certain areas new york as well where i am in silicon valley for you to even suggest that
2:22 pm
you support trump. to make deals on the table this wednesday as this year's eastern economic forum kicks off in russia's far eastern city if not difficult president putin has already met with the indian prime minister to sign off on 25 try tails. with on the 2 leaders meeting for us. gamma beach yeah both our countries clearly understand that knowledge days we need a month to achieve peace and stability and all cooperation is very important to achieve this it's already become somewhat at for edition day one here in vladivostok at the eastern economic forum is usually when vladimir putin and his most important guests spend most of their time together getting involved in all kinds of activities and this year the number one guest at the forum is the indian prime minister and the run from modi so on wednesday it all began with the leaders
2:23 pm
met shook their hands and straight away boarded a motor boat to go to another town where the resists shipyard and that's a very special one because that was the location where a submarine intended for the indian navy was once modernized so that was something that a random o.t. really wanted to see and then eventually he said that he was deeply touched by the hospitality of the russian leader there was a funny moment when the 2 actually wanted to step on board the the motorboats but they couldn't decide who to let go 1st when mr modi and mr putin came back to this island the island of bruschi they went straight to business and more than 2 dozen agreements were signed as the indian delegation was meant by a team of russian ministers i saw the actual policy holders with the signatures and the assistant from the indian embassy she was actually having
2:24 pm
a hard time taking all the folders away and here were talking about all kinds of cooperation from sending in the auster dots to space in the future to joint efforts in protecting the environment including the tigers and turn out the tigers are very special for the indian prime. mr and the russian president because here and vladivostok there was a species of tigers that was almost extinct but the thanks to the efforts of the russian government now that problem is solved and it turns out the 2 leaders do share an affection for animals but there are plenty of other reasons why the 2 leaders are calling each other dear friends here's what mr modi said in an interview to the russian media there is a special chemistry in our relations a special lightness hin in this forum we will have a lot of time to discuss
2:25 pm
a lot of issues while the east economic forum is just beginning and on day 2 neurons are modi and lattimer putin will be joined by the leaders of malaysia mongolia and japan will be there for you. a final around 30 minutes time with more of the top stories to stay with us. ever since the arrival of boris johnson to 10 downing street there's a growing sense of inevitability that brags it will be executed on october 31st with or without a deal i mean we get to this point what lessons have been learned. and
2:26 pm
you're watching going underground while we're away we're going to be showing some of your favorite episodes of this season coming up in this show we ask award winning human rights lawyer cherie blair q.c. about bringing together donald trump and sergey lavrov to free a russian citizen detained in kuwait plus is the climate crisis our 3rd world war we are down to british environmentalist jonathan porridge why he was name checked by one of britain's greatest doctors mark rowlands when he cut ties with the world shakespeare company over privatized fossil fuel company b.p. all this more coming up in today's show i mean a busy law firm goal on the a strategy and with me is the q c cherie blair thanks for inviting us in. let's
2:27 pm
begin with why you are defending a convicted alleged. russian in beslan. sentenced to 10 years hard labor and find some $2000000.00 well in the 1st place he's not convicted conviction is actually overturned in may and why was it overturned because it was based on flawed and he didn't forged. evidence and she had not been given the opportunity to put her side of the case so the trial actually was a travesty did not comply with fair trial procedures and finally the court of appeal in kuwait did overturn that decision so she isn't currently on bail awaiting trial she worked she's a russian national she works for a comical k g l. and you're referring there to documents are proving to be forgeries the accusation that there was a half a $1000000000.00 in dubai account that was enjoying now where it was true in the sense that marsha headed investment firm and she made some investments including
2:28 pm
from the the kuwaiti port authority as part of that fund and those investments were indeed successful particularly one that she did in the philippines as a result of which the money was to distribute to the investors is was transferred into an account and dubai when extraordinary the attorney general kuwait asked the dubai court to freeze that money so that's why the money wasn't paid out it was because the kuwait prosecution authorities froze it eventually thanks to the efforts of our american colleagues it was unfrozen and the kuwaiti port authorities received at least 4 times their investment back from that fund so that was just a nonsense in relation to the forged documents extraordinary thing about that is this claim 1st started because a disgruntled employee who marcia just sacked went to the authorities complaining
2:29 pm
about her. subsequently an auditor audited the books of the kuwaiti port authority and produced 2 documents which he said showed that they had been claiming for services rendered to the port authority which were not actually jews at all subsequently that very person was convicted of forging those documents and was sentenced to 6 months imprisonment he in fact absconded so isn't in prison and very recently in the last month came back to kuwait where the kuwaiti court even though he didn't been convicted have allowed him out on bail while his appeal against that is that the contrast to what happened to marsha couldn't be more stark somebody convicted and absconded marcia who's been under investigation this is been hanging overhead and since 2012 she's been actively pursued by the authorities since 2015 so much so that she's been on bail when she was on bail and her american
2:30 pm
green card expired she wasn't able to go and go to the states because she only and the bail conditions are like there are accuser and yet she was then detained for 472 days since november 27th 17 until just this june while he has been treated completely different is very arbitrary it's basically a personal problem with spiraled out of control why would they want to pick on her the greater judicial system or is it the greater authority is we believe that there is. in a sense this is bizarre why is this happening i haven't even told you that the same time this you you mentioned about these the sky idea that she them bears old she actually bought of a company brought civil proceedings in the kuwaiti court saying this money is due in owing and the quaids the civil code.
