c for the final report by chemical weapons watchdog. last year documents just a cover up may take. place in clashes on the 59th street. in.

these americans killed or injured in afghanistan by the taliban. for allegedly funding the territory. thanks for joining us this is all t. into the. release of documents from the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons that casts further down on its report on allegations of a chemical attack in the syrian city of duma last year they revealed the o.p.c. w chose to ignore evidence that contradicts its conclusion that the attack came from the. story. a toxicologist pharmacologist and a bio analytical chemist walk into the u.p.c. w u b c w shows them a video of an alleged chemical attack and asked them what sort of symptoms they see

could they tell what gas it was the specialists all look at the video and agree on one answer and the rest is classified or was classified it was agreed among all present but the key takeaway message from the meeting was that the symptoms observed were inconsistent with exposure to chlorine and no other obvious candidate chemical causing the symptoms could be identified another day another leak another embarrassment and another blow to the u.p.c. w.'s credibility they knew they knew the rebel video was questionable didn't find any nerve agent and he chlorine in quantities sufficient to indicate a chemical attack nothing but they wouldn't admit it we know of at least one person at the u.p.c. w.'s very selective about what gets saved and what gets deleted please get this document out of documents registry archives and please remove all traces of it's deliberate storage with documents registry archives that was from sebastian brar

francis representative to the u.p.c. w. in that email he demands the deletion of a technical report which concluded that the gas canisters most likely were dropped from the air by at ads aircraft but placed at the scene obviously placed by someone staged. they've tried not just to exclude certain from asian but beriah completely expunged from their own all call it. that is not there is not a scientific method is it people don't just bury or delete and actually delete all traces of a report that is that the smoking gun of a cover up and now we see the capture and the politicization of the o.p.c. w. what's really encouraging though is we have people within the organization all willing to try and get the truth that it. is out of its depth here in terms of p.r. and diplomacy in apostate been

a quite organization remember they've won the nobel prize professionally getting on with their work but their pitch have been subverted and led astray if you like and they're going into this uncharted waters where now i think from a p.r. perspective they're finding it difficult to cope and in the past if the past 3 leaks because this is a 4th leak now of documents if the past 3 leaks are current they wear. down and be in denial as indeed it's the whole pretty much of the western especially u.s. u.k. media in not actually investigating your knowledge and the truth that is now actually seeming to be emerging as not enough time to run through everything that the u.p.c. w. edited out every corner they cut every piece of evidence they twisted to make asaad look guilty and like excluding all but one of their investigators who went to syria for writing the report they needing contradictory witness testimony classified and keeping secret victims toxicology reports bringing in american intelligence agents

10 electric chemists 2 dozen employees suspected professionalism fraud or even foul play according to leaked e-mails but the boss he stuck to his guns weren't some of these. new. unprofessional. reached by the side. you know who disagrees with him the 1st director general of the o.p.c. w. who has cosigned an open letter calling on the organization to let people who they've gagged speak out with every week the story gets bigger more scandalous which they not be the impression you get on t.v. or in the big big has it's all obesity w defends its report and hits back at whistleblowers many of the people writing these are they're scared there's only so much that they're allowed to write many

editors and many journalists aren't even aware of the propaganda so what will take place is they will be told or no this is this is all just rubbish look at the spelling counts a call and maybe some are aware that they are they are dubious and they're not to be trusted i think there's probably too much risk involved in shouldn't listen we shouldn't be trusting and i want to show that took place at a news event in takes place of many organizations where you go and it says you know possibly senior reporters where you know they go and work in these think tank release you know that cultivating relationships with us state department officials or heads of different political organizations and i think what not stars do is. you know it becomes a conflict of interest this is the new p.c. w. it is no longer about 5 didn't the truth stablish in what happened molecule by molecule now it big switch molecule to show in which to hide now

the u.p.c. w. synthesisers chemical guilt literally out of thin air. you have us the o.p.c. w. to confirm the claims here they have yet to respond. ill of us demonstrators are gathered in paris for a 59th we can't protest they've joined forces with those condemning the government's pension reform plans. reports. well it's the 59th week of protests by the jle asian ones out every saturday to show their discontentment with the french government and what they see as being policies for the richer they gauge the poor they've also been joined by a protest of those i came to the pension reforms at the moment in france these the reforms that the french government is trying to put through some reforms that would see some food different pension systems joining down into one universal system so to give you a sense of the crimes that we've got hey you might be able to see i simply ghana's

and this protest crowd heading back towards god to norwich is about a kilometer away they are in fact also in front to versus well so far this is being a generally calm protest but as you can see some of the protesters are trying to pull down some of the barrier is that or that fool the rude works of it going on in this area it seems like the tensions are starting to rise now here in paris as act 59 is underway we're being told not to fail not to show what's going on. a pretty serious series as you can see my camera is being a grass that still has the look. out for this or the book of all this is all. the political will just trying to do our jobs in paris here by showing what's going on with the protests as you probably can

see from the end of the footage where cameraman was attacked when we tried to stop the attackers from talking in the camera and that she smacked me across the face this is the kind of reaction you get from some of what people describe as being the black blocks just literally walking me smack across both sides of my face because i was trying to explain to him that we're doing our job and to stop trying to harass my cameraman and attempting to break the camera. as you can see the police going to wars that are fired that has been late by the protest since you can see things being thrown out the police by some of the protesters now as they try and get closer this is the area where we were trying to film earlier and were attacked for doing so by some of those mosques protest is that fire being said to some of the road whoops that was taking place and it looks like they've been able to get some rubbish to put on top of that police now putting that out very quickly and trying to secure the area as the protest is still around and you can feel the tension

rising in the end of this 50 knowing week of the yellow vests protests and of course joined by those on protest against the changes to the pension system bringing book food by the french government. thank. you. for the tear gas now you just purses the police trying to control those crimes you could see there were bottles they look like cos vocals being thrown into the pace you can still see some things being thrown into the air and not to you gas now that

cloud coming pushing us away as a mechanism again for trying to control the protests picking at this is already is it's coming quite close to say really need to move forward a bit faster if we thought if we can just to try and get away from that particular now dispersed by the police and attempts to control the crowds here close to shuttle a in the center of paris just give us a. where she actually is it's just across the water from your tie down at that famous cathedral here in paris the police there trying to move themselves away at that tear gas unusual to see the police crying from the tear gas it's a perhaps nice to see for me that i'm not the only person who is impacted by the cas. you know protests continue to condense police brutality towards the elo fest. it is striking that there are a serial types of protesters but only the yellow thus have beaten all it's

unbelievable yellow vests representatives of trade unions and these and just passers by were all gathered here to see know who the governments are for the protesters should be respected this year let's get rid of all the special police unit began to beat us with shields she romas in front they hit him hard with a shield once again hitting is on you fell on the ground and when i was raising him out they find tear gas. and office ate my face with the silk that brought his rule happening in france now what did i do to them i'm a pacifist i ask everyone to stay calm ask the right to go on demonstrations. also there's been filed in the united states against military contractors who allegedly paid protection money to the taliban in afghanistan caleb open explains. ever since 911 the u.s.

government has been working to criminalize prosecute and sanction those who fund terrorism however there's a recent lawsuit that seems to hit pretty close to home a new lawsuit alleges that some u.s. companies operating in afghanistan contracting with the u.s. military have been paying out large amounts of protection cash to the taliban now the lawsuit is filed on behalf of those who have lost relatives in afghanistan this is how the lawyer representing those family members explained the legal action. the antiterrorism aren't complaint alleges that 8 launch multinational corporations most of which are american regularly paid protection payments to the taleban including conny network which was designed to boost the company's profits by redirect some funds way from the room business interests we believe plaintiffs to the consequences and the scale of the payouts was quite staggering between 20 and

40 percent of all funds for major projects in afghanistan and up lining the pockets of insurgents now 2 of the firms that are named in the papers the da i global and louis berger group they received roughly $1000000000.00 in development aid between 20072009 now one of the companies named in the case says it's very proud of the work that it did in afghanistan a spokesman for black and veatch said he's completed follow the directions of u.s. government agencies and was proud of his projects in afghanistan earlier this month congress released a report regarding the war in afghanistan and which u.s. military officials revealed some hard truths about the u.s. campaign. what are we trying to do here we didn't have the foggiest notion of what we were undertaking there is a fundamental gap of funder standing in the front end over stated objectives and

over reliance on the military and the lack of understanding of the resources necessary so this latest case adds to the overall picture of billions wasted and pointless loss of life in what has been the longest war that the united states has ever waged we have us the companies named in the lawsuit and also the u.s. state department to comment on the story they have yet to get back to us iraq war veterans. so the case highlights the deep flaws in u.s. policy in afghanistan. in order to make money for contracting companies they don't care they will they will bid the contract they'll take the contract and then on the ground once you get the money then you figure out how you go about it afghan war papers i think they state things pretty clearly number one there was no mission we have not control the country at all so the taleban and al-qaeda and whoever else is in their islamic state which is actually

a minority basically the funding and the money gets funneled down that way this is where the issue goes back to actually going back to the perpetrators of the war and the conflict and. you can blame contractors for a lot of things for sure but they're also they get these contracts and they they get to operate. at least 90 people have reportedly been killed as a security checkpoint in the somali capital mogadishu a truck filled with explosives blew up near a tax collection point most of the victims were university students and this is one of the most deadly is somalia is no stranger to such a cells notably pile qaeda linked group al-shabaab no one has yet claimed responsibility for the south of the. muslims worked to build community ties in london by making presents to children and

family said they did this story after the break. is like the child in the room it's impulsivity it's not a system it's us versus them it's fear the prefrontal cortex and. it's compassion it's thinking about the future in terms of what we do today that's where we need to make our decisions based from from the pre-frontal cortex unfortunately when we eat the modern diet of our planet or when we watch the news or we spend too much time online we lock in to be a make believe we lock in to the child in the room and we're not able to make good decisions.

taxes are not going to do it you have to go right to the right of things its assets and the balance sheet balance sheets is what they should talk about and that's where we can be clever because taxation is the dumb way of trying to get the wealth back from the from the wealthy. come back this christmas a group of young muslims in london made presents for children in hospital and from less well off families it's part of a drive to improve cultural links between communities. has the story. christmas it's the time of families coming together people putting their feet up and relaxing for just a few days however it can also be a tough time of the year for many in the u.k. both personally and financially and for that reason many people here are also

trying to make an effort to help their fellow citizens in this festive period one such initiative also seeks to strengthen ties between culturally different communities we school. why should anyone in christmas especially children be deployed to this festive feeling so by providing them with the gifts we can try and . you know lessen their pain by drawing a big smile on their faces this initiative has been put together by the foundation and youth group based in north london it's all about coming together. with other like minded people and wrapping presents to be handed out to families in need as well as in local hospitals and to children in foster homes the organizers say it's a part of their faith to reach out to others particularly those in need the campaign was called gift from messenger highlighting the intimate relationship between islam's mohammed and christianity jesus and at the end of the day we hope that we can build bridges to become a positive asset to society in london. one local priest is enthused by the message

of unity that this event sends and i think it's just absolutely typical of the muslims the time that they respond to those with compassion and with mercy and for me that's an important issue that if those are the qualities of god then you try and replicate those qualities of god so to see this is just wonderful news to recognize in that there are some people for whom. compassion mercy general attitude beneficence all these things. are important at a time of rising tensions in the world and hate crime on the rise it's also important to show that those issues don't represent the whole picture easily artie lange of the. deadly forest fires in the australian state of new south wales have been raging for almost 2 months now firefighters there are gearing up for hotter drier

and windier conditions next week with the temperature expected to reach 45 degrees celsius amid all of that the country's government has just launched an expensive ad campaign designed to boost tourism and that's led some to wonder about the priorities. oh mild us to me. there that's you you just need some spice if. you.

tourism australia should be under investigation so full stop the tossing the tide has no hope and get mines offshore prisons smoke shops cities the bush was on fire and the car was a bleached deer australia probably not the best time to run a tourism anyway kumi when you have a science based crime plan. brits are walking into australia after seeing the kylie minogue tourism ad. finish with in case you missed it in the 3rd installment of polly because review of 2019 well among other things she looks at trump's impeachment protests in paris. the end of 2019 sword trumpeted by

phil impeachment britain in that its own bomb shell leda i'm puerto tests when truly global welcome to paul 3 i see why my eyes round up of 29 t. . in september extinction rebellion back with the global strike to draw attention to climate change by community says meanwhile in washington the dems finally had the donald where they wanted him staring down the barrel of impeachment proceedings for georgie phone call whether u.s. president may or may not have put pressure on that comedian ukrainian president to investigate jerry biden's son in return for military aid allegedly. hit the fan when donald trump decided to pull u.s. troops out of syria abandoning that kurdish allies to face and by turkish forces only by the end of the month the u.s. military had pulled out $1000.00 u.s.

troops and sent back another 900 why. is a word that's right because america is keeping the oil also that money has a $1000000.00 catalonians really doff so they buy stuff. they were on happy with this time the government's harsh sentencing of the one of the breakaway regions formally does in fact bashing things up in the name of democracy was a very much the trend in november when livia chile peru and ecuador went up in flames as frustrated latin americans railed against corrupt governments on top economic conditions and in france the yellow best celebration is a year of protests where another protest one that i see why my extended that is nothing like the smell of to gas in the afternoon. democracy

demonstrations in hong kong were being labeled a potential civil war while in the middle east lebanon's revolution started off as a cult leader protest policy algeria was active as well whatever in iraq things turned ugly quickly out of hundreds of demonstrators were killed in the event but that was good news for jailed wiki leaks founder julian assange sweden had dropped those allegations of sexual misconduct against him i believe that u.s. extradition cases. and in december i embrace said boris johnson finally got the election he wanted winning by a landslide i'm convinced that greg is it wouldn't be cancelled probably with 2019 coming to an end it's seasons greetings from the i see why my team see all in 2020 . 3043 principles it will just take on 2019 in full on our website as well as the

case you missed the you tube. so they join me for more at the top of the hour see that. the world is driven by dream shaped by one person. thinks. we dare to ask. this is a sticker from the water bottle found in the stomach of the fish the brand is part of the coca-cola company which. millions of bottles of soda every day the idea was

that. the litterbug. industry should. become but he has promised to reuse the plastic. now. only grow. max kaiser this is the kaiser report back to stacey in brazil in rio de janeiro

it's awesome it's beautiful it's gorgeous hey if you were running a country that had an amazing pristine rain forest what would you do with it let's think about this stacy i would not chop it down and sell it for matchsticks as max keiser is famous little video you made back in 2004 or 5 talking about gold and that gold actually comes into this because. after this 1st have i'm presumes amazon deforestation this year nearly the size of puerto rico says agency destruction of the world's largest tropical rainforest total 563 square kilometers in november which is more than double the area in the same month last year according to the country's space research agency i.m.p. on friday that would bring total deforestation for the period from january to november to 8934 square kilometers 83 percent more than in the same period in 2018 and an area almost the size of puerto rico yeah you know i have an idea for

brazil actually they should entered this a oxygen futures market and so countries around the world to italy and india places in china that are dying from air pollution they can mitigate that risk by buying oxygen from brazil on the oxygen futures market that alone could be a multi-billion half a trillion dollar industry right there turning the rain forest into a recurring stream of revenue instead of just chopping it down to make money never feel the money is made out of paper so here they're just feeding the fear of money apocalypse by chopping down actually the longs of the earth there's so many ways you can turn that into a valuable asset chopping it down it would be the stupidest i believe it is the stupid. this and of course as a whole if you maintain the 100 percent of the the area and the commodity and the resource that is amazon is worth way way way way way more many times more than it chopped up and sold off for parts that's not often the case but in this case this

is the case i believe and they're just destroying it for no reason at all but let's move on to the general economy and just a little point by the way the next 2 outta so's coming out of kaiser report will be some specials into the new year we're going to talk to gerald celente we're going to double header with michael hudson we're going to be saying here in the southern hemisphere where it took us over 45 years max to figure out that it is actually warm in the southern hemisphere well as cold of nora's you have summer air that's great so it's just summer all year around i love it. so here's a tweet not one in the 100 people know this and it seems unbelievable but it is correct since the start point was the peak of the dotcom bubble as it turns out printing money is better for gold than stocks who new source bill bonner so gold is beating the s. and p. 500 so far for this century this is going back to 2000 and gold is out actually output.
