for a very very long time and that tragedy is why we are watching the whole us. wonder what. it looks like real that this would be. the plot of. the day like you know i got. the be. there. because i. well they're going to watch your arc so i am very well and on top of the lawless. tell who shocked you know you know what i hate you know i hate more than war hawks i think more harks who dress themselves as peaceniks and you know like donald trump is right like oh i'm bringing all the soldiers home i swear i'm bringing soldiers home but not really. really in the least as in britain soldiers

will get and i don't think we've got the oil it's not supposed to say that part out loud in the middle of one of those bones. so as you with a bow one of the things that's really not interesting it's terrify and unsettling by the defense secretary caspar had said he told reporters that he spoke to iraqi leaders about the plan to move about a 1000 american troops from syria to iraq which currently already has $5000.00 u.s. soldiers stay stand there and the u.s. is also considering leaving some of those troops behind some troops behind in syria to secure oil fields as yet in the region of greys and they don't want them to fall into the hands of me and as law makes day or assad or somebody else somehow i don't now i'm just it's like it's not our oil fields it's not our area to be and i don't know that there's really i mean this is this is a bit of a cluster it is not. that cluster of people who. you all have certain agendas and

at the center of out of kurds and all of these organizations that are just trying to find a safe place. to start with you know who why it's syria's only hold it's their oil money oh it's kind of like the thing of like so we're going to stay behind to secure oil fields that don't belong to us or anybody else ok yeah great but when you look at the amount of u.s. troops you know in the middle eastern area map earlier i mean you talk and u.s. central command says there's between 627-0000 u.s. troops throughout the middle east i mean just for an example unlike countries that we know saudi arabia we know you know the big ones but look at this jordan has roughly 279-5000 troops supporting him supposedly the defeat of isis there's 13 of 13000 u.s. troops in carter and they're talking about expanding the base there 5000 u.s. troops are in the united arab emirates the tiny little nation you're near to the strait of hormuz it's incredible when you think about the amount of u.s.

military operations going on there the is anybody excited to have was there is there is there any real reason to be there beyond just you know the standard talking and you know the standard oh need to stop terrorism really really well i mean i think that is an idea but the truth is that such a large part of the world and it does in some ways because there isn't good foreign policy in between nations in that area there needs to be somebody to sort of be the peacemaker i just don't think it's us or clear it clearly we've seen it in the end time after time with you know whether it's the middle east or china that there's a certain cultural divide that we're not willing at least our foreign policy wonks aren't willing to understand or get to understand understand why this is a problem or why we don't get the support or why people are feeling potatoes out as like. you know we have to learn more and understand the cultures we're going into if we want to actually help them and if you don't have

a desire to do that you should probably get out of that and we have to stop with the whole nation building thing or of the spread of democracy by the barrel of a gun we don't even have money to take care of our 50 states we don't need 515253 no and let's not for good knowing history and starting to you know the whole thing the whole 'd reason behind osama bin laden is you know quote unquote war against the united states is because of our military presence in saudi arabia which trump just send another you know 1800 some 2000 more troops to saudi arabia in order to supposedly you know stop the threat of iran i mean it's absolutely ridiculous where you live when you have all these kind of paper tigers they put in front of just a paper justifications they put it very well this is why we have to be there was why we have to be there rather than just an excuse to be there and to. pay for a bunch of military equipment that nobody really needs that'll just end up in the hands of people who will have to spend more getting more military equipment to go and get it back from people who shouldn't have in the 1st place because we left

there you know it's that's the it's the frankenstein syndrome we create the problem and then we feed the problem and then we have to talk about how we need to create more problems to stop the problem we were gently created right absolutely ridiculous and never quite works. for us at the westminster magistrates' court on monday it was tears cheers and rejection for wiki leaks founder julian assange as the appeared before district judge for massa barrett search for a case management hearing on his potential extradition to united stage a song just barrister mark summers pleaded with the court asking for 3 months later the full extradition hearing in order to have time to properly to paris and prepare a songes defense joining us now is our to america correspondent there in france and who has been following this story all day thanks for joining us here guy so there's a lot of angles to this story especially with julius and his lawyer he's accusing actually the united states of attempting to kidnap and harm at the wiki. founder saying that there was a man that came into his office that were actually. barged into his home with hoods

on a little crazy but a songe actually he lost a bid to delay his proceedings so that his legal team would have more time to prepare his case but the judge says it's on justified because it's already a very very slow moving case now again with it being unjustified the editor of the now acting out or in chief of wiki leaks says that the ruling is anything but fair take a listen. so it was. this super power is it 10 years to prepare the case and for the last 6 months he's been sitting in prison without any access to documents legal documents. other computers really want to be clear that's easy and should each not be old. so as you saw there outside of the courtroom there was a handful of julian assange supporters including the former mayor of london who is actually on julius on his side now protesters they were coming as far as france

australia all to defend the 48 year old again u.s. authorities they accuse a sound of scheming with the former army intelligence analyst chelsea manning to break a password for a classified government computer publishing leaks detailing the u.s. secret drone program about 2 weeks ago i remember seeing that video of julian assange where he was in the embassy and they were actually calling in saying that that you know mark the 7 years of him being there of those arrest back in april we've had you know the likes of pamela anderson saying that he is you know kind of not kind of losing his mind but now he has been. by jail for 50 weeks in the u.k. prison since may after he skipped bail by seeking asylum in the ecuadorian embassy in london to avoid extradition to sweden where he was wanted in connection with sex crimes allegations but again this is the extradition case that they're now not going to give him any time to go or some group so do we know where you know what state is he in i mean like i know we've heard from a lot of people have we've seen i know we've seen some footage is it really bad i

mean you look well he looks well i mean they they said that he quote looks healthy and the science that he shaved his beard that he you know was clean like he showered in everything but when it came down to actually his mental state they said it was very very difficult for him to even recall what his name was when the judge actually asked you know do you know. why this is happening he said up reportedly not really and that he's unable to think properly he says that he can't get to any of his writings he can't research anything he doesn't have a computer so that's kind of where he's at at this point as far as this mental state which makes it impossible for someone to truly you know kind of prepare a defense for his representatives to purge the from some of julian's mind as degraded this much from the incarceration remember you had the un declare that it was a form of torture what they were doing to them not only in the ecuadorian embassy but now also you know under under you know we jail today where does this case go

next so they did there said ok we're not giving you the extension to properly form your case of the marks for you know we're not giving you a 3 months away what happens next with the extradition right until like the reason that it's lawyer was actually calling for a 3 month extension was because he said that there with the evidence in this case it it's because it would test the limits of most lawyers and saying that this case is going to set the precedent for other journalists out there who are going to be leakers and you know the united states has had since 2010 to get their case together he hasn't you know it's been hard for him to get a computer his lawyer it's hard for him to even reach him in prison and this isn't the 1st time we've seen a case like this we have daniel hale going on right now where his home was raided back in 2015 i'm sorry 5 years ago he was just indicted this year so it's kind of like a long stretch that these you know leakers where the government has but as far as what's happening next the u.s. is seeking to bring julian assange to face espionage charges here is going to have a handful of court hearings in november and december but they're going to have his

extradition for a 5 day court ruling period in late february 2020 well let's remember chelsea manning is still in jail and therefore. simply for not read. going on the stand and repeating things she is already said in relation to this case and has received. it's more and more pushing back on anybody who might tell an uncomfortable truth and let's remember the real uncomfortable truth here right now as is the hillary clinton e-mails and all of that that means that they embarrass he embarrassed the wrong people all right ron and it will be it'll be really interesting to see because i do agree with his lawyer where this is the case that's going to wrap up with the rest of them and which are the one thank you so much for coming on always opposing president runs are all right as we go to break don't forget to let us know what you think the topic for a couple of our social media and be sure to check out watching the hawks podcast

which is now available on the spot of pliable music and everywhere you listen to your favorite or not so favorite todd strauss coming up with unprecedented protests in uprisings taking place around the world from all gong to barcelona is the times the site the time of societal and cultural change is upon us with i just like sleep camp and national director of the movement for people's party mc brenda joins us to discuss before we go chinese ping pong prodigy leak at just 5 years old she is serving hope some fire on that new table toppers informed her that. thanks.

can suppress certain types of results on what they think you should be seeing if they have this kind of power then democracy is an illusion the free and fair election doesn't exist the more we give them the sooner we are all. what politicians do you should. put themselves on the line. they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to express. something and want to touch. it you're going to be right that's what the 3 of you get. interested always at the right. place.

on october 18th in lebanon a 1000000 protesters marched on the presidential palace and declared a revolution this was in response to a failing currency lack of jobs for younger generations an unfair tax is just a name a few of the reasons the lebanese were in the streets however the lebanese aren't the only ones from barcelona to chile ecuador to hong kong haiti to london whether it's to save the environment or democracy the power of protesters and the air here's a look at just a little bit of the poor protest coverage we here at r.t. have brought to you from around the world well this is a national edition and it says massive march of independence for the freedom of the damned and this one says violent groups spread chaos in the center of barcelona barcelona has become the at the sound of the separation movement and is literally on fire alfre day so what we've seen today is the indigenous communities thousands

and thousands of people that came from different parts of the door here to the comfortable to protest even though this march and rally has been banned by the hong kong police citing past incidents where marches organized by the same group have ended with violence people have been out in full force for the better part of the afternoon 100 see if you know it's more than. 1000 students of turned out for this protest today when i'm happy i began thanks to the admission process is due to change here in florence. joining us now to better understand why we protest and how it can make a lot more difference than any election can is the host of the hard hit r.t. america comedy news show reacted to nightly campaign on the national director of the movement for a people's party thanks for joining us i am protesting this segment lover but i was going to start. this is amazing that we have 13 major protests. probably many more happening around the world you know hit number than from from taxes to

school fees all the way up to complete independence where former colonizer what you're seeing going down in haiti and things like that they're going to ask you 1st why do you think that we are seeing this much uprising in protest at this time all around the world yeah i think it's a combination of primarily 2 factors i think 1st it's a global rebellion against austerity policies neoliberal capitalism and the 2nd is you know an inequality which is growing too insane levels with i think it's 80 people now i believe it's down to 26 people as much as. the bottom half of the world and then the 2nd factor is the internet which has empowered people to connect and mobilize faster than ever before leaders that's what do you think would change her activism in you you know followed activism and protests for a very long time i haven't seen this kind of thing probably just since the run up to the 2nd iraq war works this global and even though they're disconnected they're not really at the end of the good will say yeah i know many of them are not just

connected it is immense inequality and i think he's right there with the internet which was a lot what allowed occupy to become maybe the 1st global protest we'd ever seen quite in that in that way and now we're seeing at least in the u.s. but i think in a lot of countries trying to tamp down that. billeted of protesters to coordinate online. but i think nick you missed the 3rd reason which is climate change is wrapped up in a lot of this and i know you don't care about climate change. or talk about it but it is important because just because a lot of a lot of these countries people are dealing with you know their crops are failing food shortages water shortages and those just amplified criticisms that were already there. i was just leaving something for you. believe me a little bit and say well i think it's really interesting that same the same issues that you're seeing across the world i've seen when i was recently wisconsin talking

to farmers same thing yeah they're in there this close to have started to protest madison or washington because they see how bad it is and they're saying the same problems everyone else that we're not paying attention to the climate there we're not paying attention to things like mental health we're not taking care of our citizens and that's one of the things i think that's makes the us the stance on protests so strange to me and i think to a lot of people especially over the last year or so last couple of years. extension rebellion as you say it was it was this environmental activism it was a big thing and that was also standing rock but standing rock sort of begat a 1000000 bills to stop people from protesting to the a.c.l.u. here in the u.s. state legislators in at least 2020 states proposed bills and 2017 that would restrict people's right to protest ultimately about half of those sort of got stuck in. just that like legislative development hell that they go to

but a couple of the month through and there's ones that are still being pushed. how do we make sense of that why do you think also with you why is the u.s. the one playing with that you should never see her tales on speech freedom and yet we're constantly allowing it how well i it is the our criminal justice system has been captured by the ruling elite by the oligarchy and they standing rock scared the hell out of them as did occupy and so they basically look at those things and they say how do we make sure this never happens again so you know and there are other countries where protesters are routinely beaten arrested and disappeared and all that crap so it's not like the horrible things don't happen in other countries but i think we have a unique situation in the level that corporations have taken over our our democracy for the you know if we ever had one and our ruling structures and so it does come

down to whether people are willing to get the numbers to fight against these changes the changing of laws i think it's something to works like the reason that it stands out so much here is the we're the ones who are always thumping your chest saying look at. you know this really rather it's the sales model for is true. you know there's an interesting angle to this layout of the ask you both both as well as that you know there's always calls the protesters or violent and want to cause damage and you know they're disrupting everything it's not a camp outside. there is as they like. multiple instances the investigations were a lot of the violent protesters that you see causing a lot of damage in protests around the world and here in the states are protesters all in actually have nothing to do with the movement there representing how do you recognize legitimate protesters from the protesters who are really the outside agitators either there just to cause trouble or they're specifically for the reason

to cause trouble how do we told them it's been studied pretty extensively actually there's a long scholarship on it and it's actually developed a lot in the past decade and that is on the best way to produce rapid change and that is nonviolent civil disobedience erica chenowith is a professor who came out with a report that said that if you can no movement in the 20th century that achieves 3.5 percent mobilization active mobilization of the citizens failed to achieve its goals and she also found that nonviolent movements were far more successful than others and so oftentimes what you see is governments infiltrating movements in an attempt to provoke movements to violence or small segments of perhaps a breakaway it's a movement of people not affiliated with it trying to commit that violence to give the whole movement a bad name and to justify state repression just add to that the way we look at violence the way our media tells us to look at oh they are violent protesters well

immense inequality is violence taking people to water with less violent stealing their homes or foreclosure and destroying lives in violence so all those things should be called violence instead of just someone's iraq. or that of the things i was a member as they like to go back. and no one ever really talks about the story behind what happened at the baltimore which is that the police were violent and hostile to them they literally shoved them into a corner and they had no. other choice they can even get home it can get to parents they literally have police pushing them into exactly where they were and that's the kind of violence i wish to talk about i mean time and time again in all of these countries and provoking all of these protests another thing underlying them is that governments and corporations are always responsible for the greatest violence and the greatest crimes against the people and when people respond you know i mean the whole concept of war is an organized legalized form of violence by states and yet we separate that from you know someone someone attacking someone else on the street

you know individually or c.v.s. . really important and survey is a as well so you can do you guys think because we've all been watching this now do you think that we're at the turning point or are we going to see dramatic change we're going to see these are going to start making a difference are going to see governments actually changing i mean you had 25000 people show up to a rally for bernie sanders over the u.s. a massive number of people are really are these protests all around the world france ever are or are they going to actually accomplish what they're setting up to do. hugo the. big question is i think that i think that they can i think that we're empowered with organizing tools that we've never had before and i also think that in terms of the question of you know when this is going to come to the u.s. in the way that we've seen in other places i mean it hasn't puerto rico where you saw it was about a quarter of the entire territory came out against the governor just a few months ago and so i think what what has not happened here is what has

happened in these other countries that has provoked massive protests and that is that there has been a build up over many years and many decades in fact of economic pressure exacerbated by climate change. and it's reached the point where you know it's kind of waiting for that last straw that breaks the camel's back and when that happens that kind of triggering event that last insult whether it is in santiago chile raising the fair prices of the metro you know in a country of such tremendous inequality already in france you know it was the fuel tax and so i think we're missing the trigger i'd rather go to thank you both for coming in i'm sorry that we couldn't keep this conversation go longer but you know pleasure as always. great work out there both both your respective groups. joyful sorrowful glorious and their midst no one not talking about the mysteries of the catholic rosary i'm talking about the mysteries of the catholic church is a rosary that's right that is good news reports that the new click to pray to

turns out that google is manipulating your opinions from the very 1st character that you type into the search bar it will always favor one dog food over another one comparative shopping service over another and one candidate over another they can suppress certain type. results deiced on what they think you should be seeing if they have this kind of power then democracy is a can illusion the free and fair election doesn't exist the more rope we give them the sooner we are all hand. there are no official statistics in india concerning children who have been lost all separated from their parents some are to estimate that everything 8 minutes in the country the child goes missing. a lot of.
