boy did. russia not need to brace themselves with the wild anti doping agency's fit to decide on whether to slam the door to international sport for the next 4 years. good good good with the also. just but other truly a call. to. us to look at the boy could be trusted to be on the. bronze the proposed doping sanctions a logical and in appropriate while some awfully they don't politicize. the f.b.i. is working on the assumption that fine days deadly naval base shooting in florida was an act of terrorism.

a very warm welcome to you this monday morning you're watching r t international with me the key arab and our top story this hour russian athletes are holding their breath with the world anti-doping agency or wada deciding on monday whether their national team will be disqualified from international sports for the next 4 years russia was accused of tampering with a doping test database they handed over to the border to earlier this year russian sport is facing a number of possible sanctions including a ban on participation on international sports and monk and next is tokyo some a games and the beijing winter olympics in 2022 it's officials could also be barred from sporting executive bodies additionally the country could be banned from hosting or tempting to host any major sporting event and on top of all that the russian flag might not be seen at any competitions and his home soon. well the

russian olympic committee say's want his recommendations are in logical and inadequate the scandal broke when want to analysts found irregularities in the doping test database from the most good laboratory there were discrepancies with data that obtained earlier from a whistleblower relating to the time period between 20122050 down in hawkins has more details. russian fleet saw in limbo once again many of them are just taken the 1st steps of their sporting careers when this whole doping saga began 5 years ago and back then the world anti-doping agency accused the rush of a huge cover up they slammed risotto the russian anti doping body as being unfit for purpose and things escalated quickly i think it doping scandal after a ban on its paralympic athletes was upheld blocking the entire team from taking part in the upcoming rio paralympic games 15 of the $33.00 russian medal winners were part of a state when doping program the banned the harshest in olympic history hits

officials hardest the russian olympic committee is suspended me no flag no. but things seem to blow over moscow denied they had a state run doping program but admitted they had a problem the russian olympic committee was reinstated and even now reformed resolder was given the green light subject to strict conditions. that we actually cooperate with the requirements that they say to russia are fully implemented but there was no happy ending water required full access the russian of 3 data related to the field of doping testing after a brief deadline delay this was provided in generate 2019 fast forward to all time and things have gone wrong again this time water accused russia of tampering with the data while the 29 team copy of the laboratory information management system

elias database matches in many respects the 2015 copy of provided to wander by a whistle blower in 2017 hundreds of presumptive adverse analytical findings that appear in the 2015 copies have been removed from the 2019 copy and the related underlying real data and p.d.f. files have been deleted all the. good water haven't named the mysterious whistleblower but one key witness at the very center of this doping scandal is going to go to watching coffee before fleeing to the united states where he's now in a witness protection program he was head of the moscow to borrow a tree for 10 years and it turns out his reputation is far from spotless the icy further find that at the heart of the positive drug test coverup is director of he not only accepted brutha requested money in order to execute the concealment of positive test results which makes him equally responsible for incidents where coaches or officials extorted athletes even if he was not personally made aware of

the extortion no wonder independent russian experts have doubts about the consistency and reliability of the data. since november 28th 15 when the informant left our country till 2017 when the informant's data set was handed over to the water intelligence and investigations department says data bank was at the informants disposal he could do anything to it but they allege the system was accessed hundreds of times from abroad and that rod chung cough who is wanted in russia for abuse of office and drug charges may have been complicit in tampering with the messages in the system independent forensic examination suggests that rushing of support staff members to my fisa bill if ski and. remotely logged into the limbs in moscow on numerous occasions after they had detected abroad so they could have changed zeroes to ones both in their database copy and the one that

remained in russia and the monies minute. but russia cut off access to its data base in 2016 while wada claims the data was being tampered with as late as january 29th team blaming russia further significant deletions and alterations were made in december 28th seen and generally 2019. i.e. after the war the exco imposed a day to requirement these activities were concealed by backdating of computer systems and data files in an attempt to make it appear that the morse code data had been in their current state since 2015 furthermore the commands issued to execute the manipulations deletions and backdating what also deleted in the attempt to avoid detection of what had been done russian experts challenge the pause ability of the investigations findings claiming that such large scale tampering is simply impossible it was like and we can't we cannot deny that there were occurrences of copies of files being destroyed and other fast created but there were no deliberate

manipulations this is the working condition of the database when every year the operator begins to work with this database to change delete and free memory there was a complaint to us the desert disk was reset but the entry was exactly 17 seconds it was impossible to completely delete information on the disk during this time so how do things stand now fortunately very much where they left off accusations of lies and yet another coverup by water counter allegations by russian officials questioning the credibility of findings based on the testimony of a controversial informant while the fate of hundreds of athletes supposed to be innocent until proven guilty hangs in the balance. meanwhile some voices in wada are calling for even tougher sanctions a blanket ban on all russian l.m. pick athlete but even in that eventually i think there are grounds for hope on an individual basis alexander try chekov who has just won bronze at the skeleton world

cup managed to get his lifetime a limp expound overturned by sports highest court. you know a little bit of subject to go with the seats to the top but you just get your goal should be a little better than the other people will. love them and they'll get over this the commuter. the beat in this is. the 3rd so that idea is to sleep in a good mind you know. just because they really want to. yeah. you know also with that we also. just have but others from chile have gone 6 just for the trial up. there are still winnable at the beach that's the biscuit should be on them. still of them but should we see a little of that actually i made

a good. deal of the sedalia discipline that i could be somewhat but i do look at the podium of support out there still should be treated to just not understanding what a way to get us know going us i'm a sleaze i'm a lazy i'm a kalandia bush the mush of a cut the good people of the. go really worship the ability to just. come from boom all of the film is called in the optical yeah people still spin my wish a few of. the states put on them approaches. still seem near. i mean any estimate.

but those wanting to come down hardest on russia are the u.k. and the us found to have been agencies want a complete and. ban on all russian athletes the u.k. agency though has its own controversies the heavyweight boxer dillion wide despite the presence of steroids in his sample and justification is that the levels were very low and not caused by any fault on white's part is don of looks at how double standards of his reign in this fit of anti doping. for years you national sports competitions have. been hijacked by the russians for decades it seems that russian olympic athletes have been secretly doping to gain a competitive advantage labrat doping system secret labs double agents helping russian athletes cheat their way to the medal stand at the olympics this is now pointing the finger at a whole range of sports in a former what a staffer told us today you know this isn't a bombshell this is a nuclear warhead the russia doping investigation has become the leviathan of

sports scandals it's towering so high above everything else in fact it's hard to notice other violations in its shadow bribery a secret doping society medics and coaches going rogue this year alone has seen plenty staggering revelations none of which could compete with russia there when it comes to the fallout and case one a kenyan olympic champion was caught at greasing anti doping offices palms to avoid being caught. one person's case unraveled years of large scale cheating a trove of documents suggesting kenya's national anti doping agency was helping the country's team get away with it more than

a 100 athletes caught red handed no not russia kenya but the punishment wasn't sweeping it was specific individual to each test and case or how wide a call did not institutionalised drug taking another scandal that snowballed olympic skiing it looked like parts pulled from the american horror story script. so a doping cartel with the now infamous german magic has their ringleader a whole network concocting mechanisms to fool the agency keeping sport clean you'd be shocked to know the sport you play all watch is swarming with drug cheats but

the focus remains tight on russia those other scandals cost into the media archive and forgotten so reports of institutional conspiracy check and undercover doping network check what about implicating one of the giants of sport coat with its name in lights for promoting a group spearheading american long distance running with performance enhancing drugs. with the c.e.o. apparently on top of the medical experiments within the company's brainchild it's as close to institutionalize drug taking as it gets in the realms of business but you wouldn't expect anyone to banned nike and its billions of dollars from sports

now we're here because otherwise who is going to tailor team u.s.a.'s olympic outfit. i think we have to look at the wide it your political context anybody who has studied this in depth this whole. story i'm afraid would come to the objective conclusion that double standards are being applied here we are seeing a campaign to deal just to my eyes to russia on a number of fronts what people are saying quite rightly in russia and elsewhere is the standards must be applied equally that's what this is about it's about standards being applied equally yes when there is evidence of individual athletes who may have consciously taken drugs in an attempt to get advantages over their rival spend any athlete that does that should be subject to the rules no one is disputing that but where this goes way beyond that is this call for a blanket ban and which is unfair because it punishes the innocent as well as the

the guilty. they allege politicize ation on the matter is not the only criticism coming ahead of the possible ban but some sports personalities believe that if implemented it will demotivate a generation of future athletes. how can you. not only ban team and that entire sports from a country for 4 years it's absolutely ridiculous it's an overkill this. should do its job and deal with claims concerning individual athletes not with the country as a whole to have a dream like i.b.m. so there was 18 years old to go to the little sort of world to. compete for their country for the love of the sport for the love of their country and try to be them one of the best don't want to deal. with the sport is being dragged down by politics in

a place where politics should be completely absent sport is becoming costly. influence of politics is intensely felt in this desire to disqualify the whole national team why does decision to ban russia will affect everybody and will cause great shock. anyway i would say the decisions either politicize or just incorrect. what kind of message is that suddenly mean to our children and we always talk about. our mission because that is tomorrow well when you ban the whole culture from participating you kill all out of . the i think that 1st and foremost this will affect children and their interest in sport. our children have taken their future away with they want to do what they love away because of what a couple individuals did in the past it's just i mean it's ludicrous there's

a make any sense at all and of course we'll bring you that critical ruling as and when it happens. now the f.b.i. is working on the assumption that the pensacola naval base shooting was an accident terrorism the attack which took place on friday left 3 people dead and 8 injured investigators are looking at whether these 1000 gunman who was a trainee at the base and today alone or as part of a group we are as we do most active shooter investigations work with the presumption that this was an act of terrorism this allows us to take advantage of investigative techniques that can help us more quickly identify and then eliminate any additional potential threats to the rest of our community

the gunman was shot dead at the scene by a sheriff's deputy 21 year old mohammad al sadr army was at the base to study aviation it's now been revealed that he bought his weapon legally in the us some reports suggest that he played mass shooting videos to other students at a dinner just days before the attack or prior to the deadly shooting his twitter account which allegedly belonged to the saudi air force officer posted anti u.s. messages condemning washington's policies in the middle east strategic analyst gregory copley says the shooting throws a wrench into efforts to boost the u.s. saudi alliance. it's very hard to go into the minds of individuals and i think we're at an at an age where we see people radicalized online to a large extent so that they can target any moment clearly this young officer was personally motivated to undertake this anti american act and very hard to stop people problem that kind of allegiance we've even seen as you know in the past some

u.s. officers undertake acts of terrorism of the american acts of terrorism within their own military units so this is not surprising it does however actually cause a problem for the saudi government and the u.s. government because saudi arabia and the united states were busily trying to repair the fences between them because it did a breakdown in their strategic relationship over the past few months the pentagon's chief has announced america's new military focus but if in the wake of the pensacola attack he thought he might be on countering terrorism you'd be wrong his mind gauthier the best explanation i've come up with crude as it is is that the pentagon chiefs have sinked this cycle's honestly at the flaw is reasonable explanation the next most plausible explanation is that there's some sort of a cult initiation ceremony every ua so they come out each successive defense

secretary and say exactly the same thing like they're the 1st ever to say it we're working to reallocate our forces 'd and equipment the priority theatres that enable us to better compete with china and russia. there seems to be an event a regular event at the pentagon that affects their whole modes their brain activity and makes them act bizarrely the strangeness manifest itself in them shifting their attention to russia and china year after year after year as if they had their attention and something else we face growing threat from revisionist powers is different as china and russia or from each other the 1st to describe how we're approaching 5 strategic challenges russia. china north korea iran and terrorism over the long term we should expect

russia to test our alliances purpose stamina and commitment the irony in all of this is that a recent poll found that half of american military families see russia as an ally television back and that u.s. bases that they somehow missed the years long tidal wave of and see russian propaganda almost every major us network definitely had involvement in the american election russia was meddling in our election russia harvested american rage to reshape u.s. politics how the russians are trying to turn the tragedy to their advantage to target almost every major american social movement what the hell's the point if the target audience the troops that are supposed to protect america from that imminent russian invasion n.b.c. promises coming any allen now if they american troops don't buy it but of

course the brass has an excuse merican troops refusing propaganda shoveled down their throats for years actually get this the victims of russian machinations ha. there is an effort on the part of russia to flood the media with disinformation to sow doubt and confusion this is not only through discordant and inflammatory dialogue but through false narrative designed to elicit sympathetic views and here i thought in the re clinton calling half a countryman deplorable those was discordant or democrats calling republicans traitors was inflammatory i said this before and i'll say it again russia even if it wanted to could never have done a 100th of the damage and division done to america by its own media and politicians who refused to compromise refused to accept their own countryman's opinions and

views but no matter what you say to these people they will squirm they will twist they will speak and always always turn it into someone else's fault just not there . more and more republicans have changed their views on russia because of president trump's positive statements about russia and russian president vladimir putin and again asking the atlantic council what it thinks of russia is like asking the flu virus what it thinks about vaccines i mean they're literally paid to say this is companies whose sales depend on everyone being afraid of russia it's a tough sport was is the defense secretary to do this rhetorical what they're going to do is shift their attention to russia perhaps this star a different. number from other stories making headlines globally in brief

now in new zealand a powerful volcanic eruption on white island has left at least one person dead and over 20 injured authorities fear the number fate teletubbies could be higher and dozens of people are still unaccounted for including the passengers of a cruise ship that was on a tour of the island. and other news thousands of people in the maltese capital are demanding justice for an investigative journalist killed by a car bomb in 2017 they accuse the government of being implicated in the assassination of daphne carolina glitzier the country's prime minister has promised to step down in january over the scandal but people want him gone now. and environmental activists from the extinction rebellion group of staged a lion in the middle of the road outside london's heathrow airport they were protesting against the plans construction of a 3rd runway police were present at the stunt but did not intervene. plenty more on the day stories on our website and if you'd like to get in touch please do

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 types of results based on what they think you should be seen if they have this kind of power then democracy is an illusion the free and fair election doesn't exist the more rope we give them the sooner we're all hanging. this emergency 268. this is p a p o m of the 20th precinct which is which got
