torrie with military drones ballistic missiles and all other forms of weapons and we wait for a reciprocal move from them he added that while they do reserve the right to respond if attacked the continuation of the yemen war will not benefit any side the sentiment was then acco the next day on saturday at the un general assembly through the special envoy for human martin grip of those who welcome the initiative and sudden a statement if this initiative. is implemented in good faith it can send a powerful message of the will to end the war. now how did saudi arabia and its allies respond to this call for a truce and a possible pathway to peace in yemen how did they respond. by dropping more bombs on yemen of course local groups on the ground claim that saudi air strikes occurred not only the following day on sunday but then again on tuesday the 22nd of september with almas were t.v. reporting that 16 yemenis civilians died in the 2nd round of strikes including 7
12:31 pm
children. i guess peace doesn't get a chance when there are still buildings to bomb civilians to kill and the u.s. military industrial complex to feed which is why we are always watching the hawks. as. you know that i got. to. welcome we're going to watching the entire robot and. this would be my shocked. i just can't believe you know it's one of those
12:32 pm
things words like here we are you know. we're off for a truce roll for a little peace and saudi arabia responds with bombs which is just seems so typical in the world today because it's not as if they're fighting something that's a this that's why that's how you know if something is ideological or it's about land it's really about taking over a piece of land it's really about imperialism of empire of going in and taking a place and making it yours and feeling like you have a right to bomb people out of their homes it's so gross let me read you let me read you a saudi arabia's response on the initial hearing of the tribes over who to saying hey let's maybe give peace a chance here and there was a wild idea i know. beecher's about when saudi minister of state for foreign affairs. told the media quote we judge other parties by their deeds actions and not by their words so we will see whether they actually do this or not and
12:33 pm
regarding what prompted them to do this we have to do more intensive study use. we were guard people by their actions and their words so that these give you words of saying what stupid use and you respond by dropping bombs on them and in less than like 48 hours and then later on now we. are you confused. i mean this is this is exactly how it works though you kind of have this this you know statement of someone saying look this is gone on far enough some something's gotta give let's go let's go to the table and someone comes up as a boy you're going to be with them and no preconditions what you're going to do those what and then something terrible happens perfectly timed to suit everyone's political fancy i mean entire wars have started out like that more than a few more yes that ultimately turned out to be a whole lot of political pandering caused a whole lot of problems and then people died but people make guns and weapons. they
12:34 pm
got rid of a now the thing about this is the you know we've the united states has pulled from the. iran nuclear deal as it was called it was actually the 2015 joint comprehensive plan of action. so u.s. france the u.k. and germany. all of them put out a joint statement to the u.n. that said this it says is clear for us that iran bears responsibility for this attack there is no other plausible explanation these attacks may have been on saudi arabia but they concern all countries and increase the risk of a major conflict. so even though who have basically said we were responsible for the attack on saudi's oil fields a few weeks ago iran is did you know what iran is telling them what to do understand they don't have my nobody has minds of their own all of those there's not you can't you can't think that way you can't think that their duties are thinking for themselves they are but pawns in vassals of the iranian state. at
12:35 pm
least that's what the statement from the state department said wow it's funny how it also if you go along this trail and keep going down this this argument you know the united states ends up with a military bases everywhere and lots of control and a bunch of private corporations get to put 5 g. technology. into a room that's my thing i don't see a room putting military bases all the road in the world i don't see that happening i don't see a run bomb in yemen what i see is the united states putting military bases surrounding iran in the little league because they don't want them to develop weapons that they might sell the somebody else because look at happened when russia started getting into cyber security and weapons then suddenly they got pushed further and further out as our military industrial complex in the united states grew. you have to follow the money and there is this you are making trillions of dollars killing people there or they are. zarif actually told. is that not only are you talking about that attack are ridiculous it
12:36 pm
is that iraq would have brothers hussam now if we would have done it basically is that our military. we'd have knocked out saudi arabia as many of the everybody presumably would have wiped off the face of europe it's still standing it's back up and running. out of goals i was just being ridiculous and saying look the clues were the ones who had a reason to retaliate now they asked for peace. it was. the very basic human right of workers joining together in unions to negotiate with employers is one that cannot be thrown to the curb of contemporary economics without serious thought however the realities of the fight for just wages safe working conditions and job security has many union members and their supporters concerned that g.m. is willing to put workers against workers we're now in day 9 of the united auto workers strike against general motors and both sides can't seem to budge when it comes to negotiating those wages health care and securing temporary workers but as
12:37 pm
or to are to correspondent karen shows us companies outside of g.m. and even outside the u.s. are starting to feel the effects of this strike. negotiators worked all day and late into last night neither side still not willing to compromise and because of that other g.m. plants are being compromised a g.m. announced tuesday morning that they're laying off 1200 workers workers not represented by the union auto workers union that includes $525.00 from a plant ohio $700.00 at st catharines propulsion plant ontario canada and $700.00 at the ocean assembly plant also in ontario but one company that's a major supplier to g.m. hitachi automotive systems announced tuesday morning they're laying off 120 employees as a result of the strike as well going into its 9th day nearly 50000 u.a.w. members are on strike demanding better salaries better health care and better job security for times. workers now while the strike is having
12:38 pm
a major impact on the auto giant some economic and business experts say the strike against g.m. will fail they say the biggest factors are that g.m. carries a large stockpiles of inventory and there's g.m. plants all over the world with only 28 percent of its workforce being in the u.s. they also point out that g.m. cars don't rank high on an index that measures how much of each g.m. cars made in the u.s. so while the strike shuts down u.s. production that's only a small part of g.m.'s total capacity and one final factor the union gave g.m. a heads up that they were going to strike and that gave g.m. some extra time to stock up on inventory despite hearing those setbacks u.a.w. members say they're confident they'll get their end of the bargain hold out for as long as it takes. when i went. straight chevy metal said you know behind me. our motto then was one day longer and that's what we're going to be here we're going to hold. so far at the picket lines there have been no
12:39 pm
assaults but 11 protesters were arrested last week for blocking the entrance of g.m. spring hill assembly plant down in tennessee it's a temporary win for g.m. as they were granted a court order that bars picketers from blocking that entrance affective till october 8th since union members were out of work all last week they're going to start getting what's called strike pay $250.00 a week but they're not going to get that until the 15th day of picketing a g.m. salary normally weekly is $630.00 for watching the hawks i'm fair and friends that . have $600.00 a week of. you know we're watching this we mentioned the fact that ok well you know media we started laying off people and you saw these other companies like laying off people the use of something very interesting about when you saw those numbers well amounts to it because i think from a union perspective the workers perspective what they're doing is. is playing games
12:40 pm
with people what they're doing is trying to pit workers they're trying to make these other workers mad at the other union workers and tell them to get back to work as i don't want to lose my work thing is that tends to tends to sort of backfire and that's because united auto workers union isn't just. you know and it isn't just auto workers it isn't just you know and as you know larger affiliated unions they work together and when you go after one of them you go after all of them to the point of being in support of all unions so when you look out one thing you can see is toledo ohio good so what happened in toledo is so this sunday as you saw in that video you see like cars doing that there was a 200 car procession procession that went past where they were striking in the members of the u.a.w. local 12 which represents toledo area jeep. car workers specifically and they showed up in support of the us a
12:41 pm
w 15 workers which are the ones there that are going against g.m. interestingly enough the same union the u.a.w. so this isn't just showing like oh we showed up but we waved and we gave them high fives and that was it this same union actually did a walkout. earlier this year to support mercy health and medical center in toledo ohio when technical and support staff who are a part of their union were fighting for better working conditions so i think it could backfire when a lot of economists and a lot of people are saying like well they've got tons of stuff well if they did they wouldn't have to lay people up if they did they wouldn't do that so we'll see how it all plays out are underestimating him all right as we go to break court watchers don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics we've covered on our social media be sure to watch your speech was over was spotted by awful news are going to everywhere you go in the podcast coming up or demerge of course one of john hardy brings us the latest on the jeopardy up student poster gratian and we find out all. all of the drama today features of the un general assembly state to
12:44 pm
a very warm welcome to you you're watching us inside. the tense situation in venezuela is still all over the news the problem in venezuela is not that socialism has been poorly implemented but that socialism has been faithfully implemented for inside venezuela things look different we're going to announce sanctions against a troll to venezuela socio. political moment to. get out of that. battle to stay on the path to. the moment the focus of the who story isn't new nixon called in henry kissinger to tell him that not be tolerated in latin america. an alternative economic and social system could take hold and therefore the policy would be to make. the economy scream
12:45 pm
so wants now making the economy of venezuela screed. as we mentioned earlier the united nations general assembly is in full swing this week in new york city hoc watchers and with climate change the growing tensions between the united states iran british prime minister boris johnson's latest brags that efforts and a host of other political issues at play on the world stage there's definitely no shortage of stories and events coming out of the annual gathering of nations r.t. america correspondent. in new york covering the event and she joins us now welcome so they queue up to ask what is the load. of that you were general somewhere about i guess we should probably start with u.s. president donald trump's address to the assembly what did we see. lots and lots
12:46 pm
coming out of new york here and yes let's start where president his u.n. g.a. address today which was unusually monotone and not his usual energetic self but he rallied today against globalism china iran immigration and venezuela now on u.s. immigration trampling radical activists and groups for encouraging illegal immigration and smuggling now on china say he's fighting unfair trade policies and working to secure a deal with china which led him to iran where trams said that iran needs to stop threatening other countries and to put the iranian people 1st take a listen. the regime is squandering the nation's wealth and future in a fanatical quest for nuclear weapons and the means to deliver them. hoping to free itself from sanctions the regime has escalated its violent. and unprovoked aggression. all nations have
12:47 pm
a duty to act. no responsible government should subsidize iran's blood lust. as long as the runs menacing behavior continues sanctions will not be lifted they will be tightened. now on the sideline president trump try to reassure british prime minister boris johnson that he'll win future court battles after his suspension of parliament was really ruled illegal take a look you know we have we had of course the 1st couple of months we have been at it we were over 7 with the supreme court and since then we won the wall we want to say when we won some of the biggest ones we had a great story. but we started off we were over 7 and if you will report back the 1st time we won you were like shocked that we won and since then we've almost run the table we want a lot of decisions so i'm sure that's going to happen you. then turkey's president
12:48 pm
came up and was kind of dashing between topics we criticize israel treatment of palestinians resulting in clapping from the palestinian delegation he also had a map of israel showing just how much of it was palestinian territory over time aired on also spoke of how turkey has won the title of being the most generous country in terms of housing displaced people which were fully focused on the 3500000 syrian refugees living in turkey today then south korea's president calls for economic engagement with north korea in return for progress a new clear this are men. who favors reaching out to the north also told leaders that south korea would guarantee the security of north korea quote we must put an end to the longest running our mrs in human history and it chiva a complete end to the war the 2nd principle is
12:49 pm
a mutual security guarantee south korea will guarantee the security of north korea i hope north korea will do the same for south korea and quote. it's been a long day. why is there any word yet from arabian president rouhani about whether he'll have a dialogue with president all is there any word on where this all kind of land will trumpet or honey haven't spoken in jest yet but germany can chancellor angela merkel met with president rouhani on the sidelines and in a news conference following the meeting merkel said she had rejected iranian demands to. sanctions as a precondition for direct talks with the u.s. clode i would of course welcome if talks would take place between the united states of america and iran but that will certainly not work in such a way that all sanctions are taken off the table for. time being and then there
12:50 pm
will be talks i don't think that's a realistic approach and quote you know it's interesting because one of the one of the big things this year 2 was who's not there when this year a handful of leaders did not attend including canadian prime minister just from trudeau who was as we know it was dealing with with the you know the controversial blackface scandal he's facing russian president vladimir putin didn't show up chinese president is a. pain and israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu is in the middle of his election controversy at all that have any of them send their own kind of messages or things like that to the u.n. g.a. this year. well actually israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu who is facing a political crisis at home had to cancel his u.n. g.a. appearance at the last minute but still he didn't want not want to miss an opportunity to be included in this year's u.n. g.a. so he sent a message focused of course on his arch enemy iran take
12:51 pm
a listen. but in france and germany have said that iran is responsible for the recent attack in saudi arabia let me send behalf of israel very simply iran did it a to z. is will know how to defend itself against this type of aggression and we call on all members of the international community to join president trump's effort to increase the pressure on iran that's the only way to stop iran's aggression. but when you i mean when you hear this it's pretty incredible when one all of this kind of comes down the pipeline like this. you know is it is there any word or anything like that on like men yahoo and where he say it says he's still going to end up being the guy there. well you know it's still a watch and see what's happening but of course we are we're monitoring everything but one other thing that the world is really watching is whether president trump will meet with iranian president rouhani and that's something that would still
12:52 pm
happen but and when that does we'll bring it to you back to you guys thank you so much and great great work out there today and very and fascinating work as always and i mean the u.n. general summit is like once a year we do you know it's you know it's always a very busy news day with every leader talking to things like that and you know right i just can't believe how much we can keep it out thank you so much for coming out and talking about that today. from new. jamaica the 3rd largest island of the caribbean has been struggling to recover from the effects of pollution and rising ocean temperatures that seem fish populations drop in 85 percent of the coral reefs destroyed in the 1980 s. and 1990 s. now fishermen trained as coral gardeners are taking the regeneration of the jamaican coast into their own hands literally while diving gardeners harvest small
12:53 pm
pieces of older coral as you can see. picking them up delicately they then hang them along lines in the ocean or in other ways so that what can happen is that these old corals then start growing new corals that eventually will create very large new healthy coral reefs essentially cloning the coral and with over a dozen community run coral nurseries on the island scientists and locals are already seeing fish returning to the areas which goes to show that it's it's never too late to start healing mother earth and her children. you know so it's very it's a really interesting thing when you look at what happened in jamaica over the last few decades so there's a very large amount of pollution and runoff that's everything from overfishing and you know farm runoff from pesticides it also ends up in the ocean i wanted things
12:54 pm
don't talk about and there is what ends up happening with this is that there is the coral starts to go away which means that the grasses and things that are growing marigot way the fish go away and then what happens is you lose huge amounts of the jamaican coastline and what they're having is there's these huge beaches that were once so well known or half the size or 3rd of the size they were because if nothing's keeping it there right the gradual erosion that normally the way the coral keeps the erosion from coming in and you know keeping the strength of the ocean essentially by a complete sheet over a hole in the beach away and changing the food that's not there but you know it's amazing how people can just take the simplest of ideas too it's like when you look at it it's like oh ok you know what in order to rebuild coral we just need to reuse coral it's like classic recycling of the air but the well it's kind of interesting because you've seen so many other things where there's other there's a lot of other projects going on there putting things like antibiotics which i know sounds a little crazy but antibiotics into areas where they are to try to kind of help the
12:55 pm
coral reefs. great itself or not get sick essentially sick or because we've seen it with bleaching but i think one of the interesting thing is that the within the island of jamaica what you're saying is the fishermen who are seeing like they won't have fish to catch they won't have something to go to there won't be these tourism or anything if they don't learn to sort of take and respect it so as these coral reefs are starting to rebuild that people are seeing fish again and the fishermen who are part of this reinvigoration of jamaica are feeling like they have a part of it and so they're not fishing in those areas they're keeping other people from fishing it's this whole like wonderful thing where you see an ecosystem of essential a farmer's and one where the mother taking care of what's there not just because you can make money on that because it's something that you know is important it's part of a culture it's part of a heritage of that place and it's part of this natural heritage i think ecological heritage that we don't always think of as being important i don't think we do too
12:56 pm
because a lot of times we see these places as nothing more than tourist you know it's like for people living on that island in their culture everyone the i would say well it's a tourist as long as it looks pretty right you know i'll throw my plastic out of the boat you know over for i won't think about where the water goes or any of that i'm going to. keep eating the fish but not think about where it comes from and look i think my father saw that on the show if the oceans die we die bees go there is an example of horrible all these things systems that we're trying to protect to keep us all a lot of i don't know why it's so hard for people sometimes but when you see this when you see these kind of unions of people taken you know intelligent thinking smart science eco friendly practices and seeing coal research building it gives us that hope that at the end of the day you know we might we're going to hopefully get through this and we'll fix the problems that we actually created let's try the best we can. but we've got
12:57 pm
a lot of younger generations and. you are willing to help south florida what is bad for you today remember everyone in this world we are not told we are loved enough so i told wall i love you i am tyrol been for and have a flawless people watching the hawks and have a great day and night everyone. this is a story about what happens auster a stray bullet kills a young girl in the streets. what happens to her family and daughters in florida the mother daughter is buried in
