our citizens in this microwave radiation it is certainly electoral small and skilling worse. the headline says mexico holds the 1st funerals for an american family brutally slaughtered by a drug cartel with the u.s. already offering to send troops to the country to tackle the rising gang threat also president micron of france lashes out at nato and says it's in terminal decline adding that europe should no longer rely on the u.s. to come to its defense and korea apparently unites a survey of south koreans suggest that they would rather support the north in the event of a war if you. love a good morning just gone on a clock in moscow you're watching r.t.

international now hundreds have gathered in northern mexico for the 1st funerals of american families brutally slaughtered by a drug cartel early this week the case was quick to prompt furious reaction from washington with u.s. politicians even offering to send military forces to the country however when i looked at how there could be a simple solution. 9 americans dead 3 women and 6 children hit by mexican drug lords a 13 year old boy who walked 23 miles to get help for the others and now us politicians are willing to run through walls to serve up justice it seems this is the time for mexico with the help of the united states to wage war on the drug cartels and wipe them off the face of the earth we merely a way to call from your great new president the mexican government can't protect americans inside of mexico but america may have to take matters into our own hands this is only 50 miles away from our southern border we can certainly defend

american citizens inside of mexico with mexico and mexico was not willing or able to do so is the senator suggesting that the united states send authorities or perhaps even troops into sovereign mexico now the perpetrators of this heinous crime may be subject to a high profile murder trial but are we overlooking something this was a mormon family slaughtered with 223 remington rifles made in america over 200000 firearms are smuggled from the usa to mexico every year this comes at horrific cost to society south of the border and $28000.00 alone the mexican police opened $33000.00 different homicide investigations at a higher rate of homicide than conflict at syria mexican law makes it near impossible for civilians to legally purchase guns in fact there is only one store in mexico that actually sells firearms but yet the mexican drug cartels continue to get their hands on high tech weaponry because the weapons that are right in the

united states of america because they are in the united states ended up recording them mexico the low as well so that that's very lucky or it there if the united states. or or they went to order they would be in in really me. the axes are arm or leg some the structure on that's the arm and also on the session or harm in concept or prick no or who are going to be by it's a hypocrisy in that sense the office of government accountability in the united states is documented that 70 percent of the weapons seized by the mexican police originated in the united states mexican leaders have long urged the usa to crack down on the flow of weapons into their country however attempts to do so so far have failed for decades here's the thing mexico is certainly dangerous or at least

that's the message that donald trump rang out pretty loudly on the campaign trail in 2016 nearly 180000 illegal immigrants with criminal records ordered deported from our country are tonight roaming free to threaten peaceful citizens when mexico sends its people to not sending their best to sending people that have lots of problems at their bringing those problems with us . they're bringing drugs they're bringing crime drugs like heroin and cocaine are flowing over the mexican border into the united states however the gangs that are executing people resisting law enforcement and transporting those drugs are armed with guns that originally flowed in the opposite direction the united states has to you know with its diction problem with this problem of consumption not just like being on the supply side of the things but also on that man and treating these as

a public health issue would be a good idea to start with it's also the sales of arms not just like benefiting those businesses that also benefit the economy of the united states and cup orating with next providing information to do financially halogens in a more proper way and really participating. and. our present macron of france says that the one throw bust nato alliance is in terminal decline describing it is experiencing brain death you also claim to that europe needs to start thinking strategically and assert itself as a geopolitical power europe is now dealing for the 1st time with an american president who doesn't share our idea of the european project if we don't wake up there's a considerable risk in the long run we would disappear geopolitically or at least

that we will no longer be in control of our own destiny i believe that very deeply well that stark warning there was majoring in interview with in case economist magazine the french president also cast that he won the reliability of nato as article 5 which requires member states to come to one another this defense if attacked he suggested that the terror and has been undermined by washington's faltering commitment to the alliance although not all members agree. francis or president of the french president used rather drastic words to express his views this is not how i see the state of corporation with nato so i don't think that such a sweeping judgment is appropriate meter is in our interest it's all security alliance obviously we have to take our destiny in our own hands but the transatlantic partnership is absolutely indispensable i agree with the chancellor merkel nato is strong. united states north america and europe we do more

together than they're done for decades we have implemented the strongest reinforcement so close to the front since the end of the cold war however right from broadcasts in germany from friday tell us that the chancellor merkel remarks don't really help to clarify her position. there is a certain contradiction i suppose in what she was saying in that if europe is going to be more responsible for its own military as well as economic future then obviously that would suggest painting of the link with the united states but on the other hand she was basically urging the americans discreetly not to pull away we have to remember that she's addressing those remarks basically to donald trump who has given several indications that he would really prefer america to be america 1st america alone as far as possible and really has undermined to

a degree nato's integrity and indeed is very critical of the european union which he sees as a competitor rather than as a colleague. but despite a history of animosity between north and south korea people in the south believe that they would side with north korea in the event of a conflict with japan that's the results of a survey by a think tank in seoul almost half of those are said that they would back north korea even though there was an option to stay neutral and 15 percent said that they would side with tokyo this despite continuing to remind this by western allies of the threat posed by north korea. north korea's stick 6 test of a nuclear device and its missiles launches are a threat not only to the people of south korea but to the people all across our globe it has never been more important to be working closely together given the

threat of north korea and north korea has conducted 10 missile tests this year 2 of them involved solid fuel missiles which the north can launch with less warning we saw soldiers preparing patriot missiles to shoot down incoming ballistic missiles from north korea. the most immediate threat tonight from north korea is far more conventional they could fire on south korea where the survey there also comes as relations between south korea and japan a sing another low with disputes resurfacing over longstanding controversies. all.

human rights attorney alex that wrote kim believes that countries often paint a dark picture of north-south relations to fit their own political agenda. these outside influences japan in the united states for their own political purposes i think they exaggerate the desire of the north koreans to somehow attack south korea and i think that this will all begin to bear out when these types of surveys and discussions take place and when the moment ministration finally i hope has the ability and the the guts frankly to do what they say they want to do and that is engaging and peace and settle the korean war with the north koreans and so i think japan will continue to say on these

flames until the south koreans really put into it by formalizing relations and taking further serious steps toward peace. and of unease germany has been facing widespread demonstrations from its farmers is they disrupt transport recusing track to stop block traffic it does come as the industry fails is being unfairly blamed for climate change while having to bend to . become carbon neutral country success. german farmers are furious but this is not a united front 2 camps are taking aim to the government over its environmental rules for very different reasons although one corner thousands of farmers causing gridlock in several major cities over environmental measures which they say are crippling their life the biggest one in bonn to the german argued culture ministry were a 10 kilometer convoy brought the city to

a halt. a looming ban on the controversial weed killer and tighter controls on slurry and fertilizer are just some of the measures that farmers say will force them out of business germany's lost 16 percent of its farms between the years of 2007 and 2017 a trend that the germans farmers association says is reflected across western europe farmers see the had enough of being labelled as the bad guys in the growing climate change movement we are not satisfied with the agricultural policy which is being shaped it's a policy that is not based on facts hopwood new requirements are being issued all

the time at a rate we simply cannot keep up with we have no chance to adjust our farms in time if the wish list from different n.g.o.s is getting longer and we are getting fed up with the fact that we've being made responsible for every dead insects and so on up she didn't come we are fed up with this pharma bashing campaign. we simply want to show that we're fed up with being scapegoated for everything is negative we are to blame for climate change or the air or water pollution you can't go on like this. but on the other corner are the german farmers accusing the government of failing the environment and putting them out of business if you want the federal government to rethink its crime and goals rather than take further action to reduce c o 2 emissions instead of roadblocks they try taking the legal route the 1st time the government had been taken to court for failing to protect the environment. he has become clear that climate protection is prosecutable we can end up in coolant

that is how i see it i believe that we should move forward with a positive attitude and i think more action must be taken now. germany's plan was to cut 40 percent of greenhouse gas emissions by 2020 and compared with those in 1990 but it has fallen short it only reduced 31 percent but a court in berlin found that the targets were not legally binding undeterred the farmers are digging in on both sides we want to be perceived as people who produce healthy products in harmony with nature and not as the biggest destroyer of nature in germany that more needs to be done so the government recognises that it must act now they may be opposites over the impact and solutions of climate change but there's one thing that they do agree on that bird lynn is failing them both federal law suits us. us democrats have released $300.00 pages of

testimony from the country's top diplomat in ukraine in its bill taylor claims that there was an improper quid pro quo arrangement with kiev and he says that the release of hundreds of billions of dollars of financial aid was dependent upon ukraine launching a corruption investigation into trump's potential political rival joe biden. this is a deeply credible knowledgeable person and he belatedly realizes that there. as a quid pro quo his testimony has been one of the most important for a democrat who say provides the clearest explanation for why president trump and its allies were demanding at the time this was all going down he texted are we now saying that security assistance a white house meeting are conditioned on investigations conditioned we talk about quid pro quo condition is a key word there that is what prosecutors call a head shot it is right on point republicans are push back against bill tell you that they can't they they say that despite the ambassador's claims he actually had no firsthand knowledge of the alleged arrangement. as i understand from one of the

maybe the article in the new york times giuliani was interested in getting some information on vice president biden he says he's going to one client and he's useful to the client and then it's your inference that mr giuliani's goal would be the president's goal yes and your source is the new york times yes so do you have any other source that the president's goal in making this week was was anything other than new york times i haven't talked to the president i have no other information from what the president was thinking the muddied interest the george soros and other people can arrange for a diplomat like taylor to leave whatever position had to get a very cushy lifestyle who knows what this guy has been promised who knows what his motivations actually may be but he's betrayed so far show horrible judgment coming out originally say one thing then now amending this testimony and many that on the apparently on the strength that he read something in the new york times he didn't

like the new york times reporting sadly in the last 20 years has become scurrilous there are numerous examples of new york times stories that were puffed up beyond all measure i mean this is really just beyond silly and to suggest with a straight face that the truck white house could not have could not consider his in treaty because they were too busy figuring out how to buy greenland is just a telegraph that this guy is you know as john mccain refer to people he's a whack a bird. this thing the stress levels too were up in the u.s. with people almost as worried about next year's presidential election as they are of terrorism but have a look at that story of the state run. media a reflection of reality.

in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. high salacious community. are you going the right way or are you being that. direct. what is true what is faith. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the depths. or a maybe in the shallows. 30 years ago the berlin wall fell the cold war had essentially come to an end the fall of this cold war symbol was heralded as a new spring of nations and the end of communism decades on what is the legacy of this historic event the promises of $989.00 been fulfilled.

oh again you were are see now a new poll in the us suggests that the majority of adults they're feeling stressed by the upcoming presidential elections the survey reveals is having almost as much impact as their lives on their lives is terrorism or climate change the main reason for the rising stress levels is believed to be the media blowing things out of proportion because of that nearly 40 percent say they have taken steps to reduce their news consumption but we spoke to a psychology expert dr gina loudon who believes a certain level of tension could be a good thing. with the increased attention i think that news media particularly in the united states has given. the political body i guess you'd say i don't think that that is that notable

a certain level of stress around election time can prompt action everyone knows for sure there is going to be an election and elections absolutely have consequences no matter where you live and so if it prompts people to take action founding fathers of the united states would say that might be a good thing and that some stress that leads to action in terms of voting would be a good thing and so sometimes a little bit of stress around an election time that leads to action might be a productive thing so world news in brief now a hospital run by doctors without borders has been partially destroyed in yemen no casualties have been reported but all medical activities have been suspended society led coalition has already blamed who the rebels the attack saying that they fired for ballistic missiles the chilean police officer has been arrested over the shooting of 2 students during protests in the capital santiago thousands of demonstrators rally there against the government plan to tighten public order

measures include a ban on wearing hoods and also promises greater protection. the police unrest began began in the south american country 3 weeks ago over a now suspended hide and subway fares that green into demands for the presence resignation and demonstrations between supporters and opponents of president rawest have turned violent in bolivia reports say that several protesters and police officers have been injured protests and marches have been ongoing believe year in response to claims of electoral fraud in the $2900.00 general election which has been denied by the country's leadership. yet another stark warning a group of scientists have joined the chorus saying the world is on the brink of an ecological disaster with a career with more than $11000.00 scientists signatories from around the world clearly and unequivocally that plenty of earth is facing the climate emergency what

the warning comes from the u.s. space bio science journal and according to its authors the report is signed by more than 11000 scientists in 153 different countries the authors marking 3 stead travel across the world a rising g.d.p. is troubling signs for the environment at the same time they suggest that people should go vegan and also that measures should be taken to reduce the world's population however critics who say that some of the points made in this warning are debatable and even cast doubt on the legitimacy of those 11000 signatures. that's not pro climate it's human. the 11000 scientists who've just proposed a global eugenics program amounts to a massive discrediting of the climate change lobby in the minds of any moral person paying attention thousands of the 11000 scientists were simply people who

feel doing an online form some students some retired future act including one called miles make you. well here at r.t. we did ask our guests if any of these recommendations could actually be applied in today's world. why are we going on those leases well i know that she gets about something in some of the governance issues so who is discussion about you know what can government do we employ contacts in do we just simply make the industries come to stuff and that's where we start to hit those wealthy corporations and those big and it's really big pleases as well so we could do it but it would mean a drastic drop in energy consumption of drastic drop in the standard of living and it's something you could only impose on the more wealthy parts of society rather than own pool regions like africa to shift to sustainable agriculture would mean a drastic drop in yields and a drastic drop in the population we can support so countries that rely upon.

agricultural exports. and level of manufacturing they might be able to take care of themselves but they might not be able to sustain the exports the rest of us depend on and stabilization and a reduction in employment population is going to have huge benefits for climate change and also other problems the happiness balance of things like air water. well to the homes and places of something from water loss and can we now. human health issues societal issues in general we're now going to going to try to reduce the population level of 7 and a half 1000000000 it is incredibly hard to do that it certainly cannot be done voluntarily it would involve compulsion like china is now defunct one child per family policy possibly even more draconian than that so it's feasible to talk about it but implementing it will take the politics we've done cowardly have it may well

take military dictatorships in howard namely education and also tools that are now going to chris themselves in something that's maybe beyond what with the traditional no they're just being a mother and we do see a lot less children be full of it one of the dangers of a cold to reduce population is that it will be seen by people in the 3rd world who with relatively impoverished and have high birth rights in the west is blaming the poll for global warming and so the climate collapse. you want your say that's how things are looking say foster they hear what he got in there what more for you at the top to.

imagine being a 635 and you have a what a career and a career involves using your i phone in your computer and things like that in an office and perhaps you sort of getting xenix circular t.v. you could have to stop doing all this and this is how you live the minutes must be frightening my world became smaller and smaller and smaller until i ended up living it and the box. around it a very strong magnetic field on the field in my head i think it is like a real hard pressure my skin burned and that wireless access point there says continues on saying with our students in the schools. we are just continually bathing our citizens in this microwave radiation it is certainly electro small and it's getting worse.

in a world of big parts of the lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the path and shouting past each other it's taught for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. time after time corporations repeat the same mantra sustainability. celery transition sustainable transport sustainability. more equitable and sustainable wealth. they claim their production is completely harmless.

it. companies want us to feel good about buying their products while the damage is being done far away and this is something else this. disconnect with superman and.

i think the men that we attract to the military you know we've got to the army of one you know be all you can be all those themes that we've had throughout the years very very heavily masculine masculinity cannot be victimized because if you're a leader if you're a masculine person and you're victimized then you're weak the. i'm is that anybody can be a victim of sexual assault. i join the service in 1972 the military is a great way to lie. and see the world. i got educated i love the military. was 19 and i went to the cello all alone and the next thing i know i was laying on the ground i was struck from behind and 2 guys

hold me down to one guy who was pulling my pants down. and. you know. he was taking care of his business and you know struggled and i would be instructed hit and told you know told to shut up or they'd kill me. and i see how it destroyed my life. i mean it i'm i've been married 3 times this luckily i have a wife right now who i've been married to for 25 years. you start wondering you start sort of you know you're coming up with reasons why things are the way they are and for a long time i kept thinking i don't know this something something else. i had never told anybody over 30 years i decided to tell my wife. it was the scariest moment in my life i was going tell my wife she was going to leave.
