iran designated the u.s. armed forces and a terrorist organization and response to the pentagon's killing of terror on the top commander at this huge crowds of mourners gathered for the funeral of kassam saw a man which you can see here. in all u.s. house speaker nancy pelosi and now there's a resolution to curb donald trump's ability to attack you ran over a similar restriction was stripped from a defense bill passed by congress just last month. also this hour as we enter 20 twentieth's the hangover of political correctness still haunts us notably over a new big star film the gentleman but the issues up for debate. can tell you some of the most foul and disgusting racist language this was a movie of both gangsters guess what billy gangsters don't speak in politically

correct balanced way. you're watching r t international bring you your line news update from our studio here in moscow welcome to the program. and the rapid escalation of the conflict iran has officially designated the u.s. armed forces as a terrorist organization that's according to local media parlance a boat comes in response to the killing of the country's most powerful general and then the us air raid at iraq's baghdad airport on friday iran views the killing of as an act of state sponsored terrorism the body of the iranian general has arrived in his hometown care among what you can see here live pictures on your screen being buried there and huge crowds of mourners are gathering for the funeral there's been an outpouring of grief with millions flooding the streets of tehran on monday as well tensions across the middle east have soared. demand retaliation one of the 1st

repercussions for washington was from the iraqi m.p.'s who voted on sunday to expel foreign forces from their country for conducting the killing on their soil. meanwhile there's been chaos at the pentagon a letter from a top u.s. general to the iraqi defense ministry suggested that american troops were being pulled out of baghdad after nearly 17 years their earlier donald trump had rejected they were all and war in iraq to brace itself for heavy sanctions if baghdad kicks out the troops and as the letter started circulating in the media pentagon chiefs dismissed it as a poorly written draft. there's been no decision whatsoever to leave iraq there's no decision to leave nor did we shoot any plans to leave or prepare to leave that letter is a draft it was a mistake it was unsigned it should not have been released poorly worded employees withdrawal that is not what's happening. let's discuss the latest developments with

hamas mousavi a political science professor at tehran university that what is the significance of the dozen nations of the pentagon as a terrorist organization. so 8 months ago when the united states there's even a did the i.r.s. you see as a terrorist organization the parliament passed a resolution designating u.s. centcom as a terrorist organization what had been today is that the law that was passed 8 months ago has now been changed to get sick nate the entire u.s. military and not just cent com so the entire u.s. military including the pentagon and its officials as well as all related companies and institutions related to the pentagon as a terrorist organisation and this is i think very significant because it is essentially laying the legal groundwork for it you want retaliation. now washington has reportedly denied a visa to the iranian foreign minister to address the security council is that not

a violation of the u.n. treaty absolutely the americans have to remember that they are only a host to the united nations day to not use the visa process to essentially punish whoever they don't like because iran has the right to be there i mean this is a security council meeting that is going to talk and discuss the illegal assassination of course and so they money and using that as a card in its hostilities towards iran is very very concerning i think do you really think that iraq will force out u.s. coalition troops as they voted. i think it's a tricky situation i mean the iraqi government and the parliament in the people of iraq want the americans out but i don't think the americans will leave without a fight because let's remember that the americans have spent trillions of dollars

in iraq as well as they have lost almost $5000.00 soldiers there and in the process of course they have killed hundreds of thousands of iraqis and i don't think they will let this go that easily this is a geo strategic region of the world that has a lot of natural resources iraq is in the heart of the middle east and i don't think the americans want to lose their foot there so we have these reactions coming from iran and iraq and further threats coming from donald trump how dangerous can the situation get. so so i think the americans are playing this double game where donald trump is threatening iran and on the same hand you have european leaders who are supposedly encouraging iran to have restraint in perhaps not retaliate the problem with that thinking is that if iran does not retaliate then the americans will see this is a sign of weakness and will pressure iran even further this happened a year and

a half ago when the trumpet ministration decided to leave the nuclear accord and the europeans essentially trip to iran to stay in the deal not retaliate not leave the deal and they said that they will make up for the sanctions in reality what happened was that for a whole year iran stayed in the deal while its economy was repeatedly punished by u.s. sanctions and i think from that experience iranian leaders have learned now that essentially the trump administration only understands the language of power in a lot of people analyst officials in iran are demanding a swift revenge. a political science professor at tehran university thank you for your time and your comments meanwhile democrats are angry with trump's middle east decision making mainly because he did not get congressional approval. explains they had a chance to get it but voted against. travis decision to kill iran's top general isn't

exactly bringing peace and stability to the middle east as the world is on edge waiting to see how bad the fallout will be democrats have spoken up however the objection of the democrats isn't that trump killed got some solid money but that he did it without their permission the operation against solo money in iraq was conducted without specific authorization and any advance notification or consultation with congress there is usually a congressional consulting process it's both constitutionally required we see a gradual march to military action directly or indirectly with iran that has not been authorized by congress but they did actually have a chance to stop trump the recent $738000000000.00 defense spending bill could have included amendments that tied trump's hands and mandated he not carry out any attacks against iran no federal funds may be used for any use of military force in

or against iran unless congress has a declared war or be in 1000 specific statutory authorization for such use of military force if the president wants to attack iran he needs to come to congress for authorization i proly support this amendment prohibits in the use of any funds for war with iran without congressional authorization a number of progressive voices did speak out but they got outvoted the bill was passed. any member who voted for the national defense authorization act a blank check can't now expressed dismay that trump may have motion of the war in the middle east my amendment which has stripped would have cut off funding for any offensive attack against iran including gates officials like sunday mommy now democrats in congress are looking to pass a resolution that would not stop but only limit trumps actions when it comes to iran and no surprise there because in the aftermath of solomon is killing democrats

seem to act go try to claim that he was indeed an awful person who deserved to be shot down similarly was a murderer responsible for the deaths of thousands including hundreds of americans in general still the money was a violent man. who died a violent death toll money was a bad guy there's no question about that a notorious terrorist. no one should shed a tear over his death he deserved to be brought to justice he deserved to be brought to justice was a crime this seems to be the outlook of the democratic party it's ok to kill the top general of a foreign country and put the country on the brink of war you just have to ask permission 1st they don't sound as much like cool headed dogs but rather like noxious bureaucrats waving the rule book and from space demanding proper procedure they could congress could. put much stronger clamps on the president but over the years we've seen them fail to do that i think they realize they can't stop

it so what they'll try to do is limit. you know what kind of money could be spent without congressional approval and that kind of thing it will be a sort of a face saving thing for the democrats to say we tried to do something this juvenile attitude in america that we have that you know all our enemies are bad guys or the baddest of the bad and we're the good. nobody will just say look this was the general of a company of a country the commanding general and we and he was killed this is not what you do i mean this is an act of war. the latest movie by british director guy ritchie has been giving some harsh reviews with critics branding it racist and out of touch the gentleman has already been released in 4 countries including britain with the rest of the world getting to see it in 2 months here's a look at what's getting publications so riled up among u.k.

viewers. this really will be. the still. the i. every imaginable demographic gets their moment to be targeted and denigrated the only thing the gentleman finds worth celebrating is the bravado white masculinity. a less forgivable blast from the past however it is a deuced confort ing strain of racially based humor running through out reaches original script making flat punch lines of multiple asian characters. it's just a shame that guy ritchie falls back on his bad habits casual racism and the nolan esque lack of female characters problematic but still very entertaining. and i'm being absolutely sincere much rather watch cats than the angry racist mass

that is the gentleman. who put the issue up for debate with political commentator david vance and social activist lee just. this is a sort of bygone break movie a sort of muscular reassertion of the we can say what we like is our country and we don't give a damn what anybody thinks it can tell us about our most foul and disgusting racist language this was a movie gangsters and hey guess what really gangsters don't speak in politically correct balanced way is that snow would gangsters do when we see movies like this is the following day when those racial epithets are repeated on the shrieked that give cause for concern that. movie makers like guy should have a broader social conscience and responsibility is producing the arjan de doo if you

want to see a margin grissom then that's fine you go and see it if we go to see a gangster movie you know we're not expecting to. find high philosophy we're not expecting to experienced walk culture that's just reality i think is outdated he's outmoded and he's not reflecting the kind of future which is of a more inclusive sense of britishness nationalism you know here we are in 2020 and what we're experiencing over this movie is just an early flutter of walk culture of the perpetually offended black panthers one of the most successful movies in the world and it's successful economically for a reason i think i'm not in favor of any artistic ban or any law i do think there should be greater diversity in the production and creative rooms quite amusing that you just referenced black panther and you went on then to talk about diversity if i

recall the black panther movie successfully there wasn't a huge amount of diversity in not so if you want equality and i do then i think we have to have the fundamental right to have all opinions of all sorts heard saying and understood. next we take stock of $21000.00 reflecting on more of the events that marked the year just pass. we've divided the review of the year into 2 categories mind games and war and world let's start with the 1st category mind games taking a look at to see what comes up there $29000.00 was a year of struggle for truth with some apparently looking to hire censor it social media giants such as facebook came in for particular criticism accused of blocking stories it doesn't like and while whistleblowers accuse the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons of twisting findings to fit their narrative so we

take a look at chemical censorship take the alleged 2800 attack in syria it was blamed on the syrian army but many question the o.p.c. reports michael sandel steeper the new year is a chance to start over to start clete a chance to reach new heights all well climb back to the old ones you fool enough to try and rebuild your reputation as is the case with the o.p.c. w. it started off with the horrific 40 and the alleged chemical attack. took a year for the u.p.c. w. to publish its 1st draft open and shut case it's found traces of chlorine strongly

decay sions that the containers would drop from the air. and done. today's o.p.c. w. final report on the 7th of april 2018 attack in doom confirms chemical weapons used demonstrating the vital importance of the o.p.c. w.'s work this confirms chlorine attack was only the latest example of the assad regime's chemical warfare attacks on its own population we would later learn that a significant part of that year seemingly went to the picking of font that would make as sad look most guilty the 1st hand came with the leaks report which calculated that the evidence didn't match the catalyst as were very likely placed at the scene observations of the scene of the 2 locations suggests that there is a higher probability that both cylinders were money placed at those 2 locations

rather than being delivered from aircraft the whistleblower behind this leak was kicked out of the u.p.c. w. building he wasn't even an employee they claimed we would later learn that he was and they lied but that would happen later 1st another o.p.c. w. whistleblower would strike with very very serious allegations most of the duty and focus he reports on the incident the interim report and the final report were scientifically impoverished procedurally irregular and possibly fraudulent professor richard foulke was there at a conference in brussels where the 2nd whistleblower spoke well essentially he presented. evidence testimonials to the a theory that the report final report could not be justified in the form that it was submitted and that it had been tampered with in such

a way to create a set of conclusions current spurn to work. with the us. truants it would be the outcome of an investigation but the evidence didn't support. here's how they manipulate of the evidence despite their best efforts they never 1000 to any nerve agent what they did find a traces of chlorine sounds dangerous right to the uninitiated that again you can find traces of chlorine in your drinking water your cleaning sprays and your local swimming pool everywhere the difference between a mass chemical attack and someone cleaning their sink is concentration how much chlorine was the texted i guess what the u.p.c. w. decided to emit if the finding of these chemicals at the alleged site is to be used as an indicator that chlorine gas was present in the atmosphere they should least

be shown to be present at level significantly higher than what is present in environments already but when the analysis of these key levels came back from the laboratories the results we can through sammy barrick at unison who is the doom of fact finding missions leader against normal expectations they were not passed on to the inspector who was drafting the o.p.c. w.'s interim report on doom really strange considering that the rebel video which was used as justification to launch cruise missiles at syria clearly showed people suffering symptoms of nerve agent poisoning it didn't even find chlorine in sufficient concentration to indicate a chemical attack it boiled down to 2 explanations either acid used or a magical gas that is undetectible by modern instruments or the videos was staged after almost 6 months of investigation i can prove without a doubt that the duma hospital scene was staged no fatalities occurred in the

hospital before all the whistleblowers came out he just couldn't say it any doubt about acids guilt would get your mauled were they kewl smeared threatened and. fired the free media as i kept pushing to try and do the story because i feel like it's of extreme you know public interest the attacks on me and it is a kind of nit picking on on certain things i was doing in my articles but it was purely on just to be able to attack me in an e-mail so after i kept pushing pushing essentially was told a couple alarms about why they wouldn't run the o.p.c. w. story of the moment there are very few western well mainstream western journalists that are reporting on this so i would say this complete failure of the media our job as journalists are to hold governments to account and if governments are going to war on false premises then you know we have good evidence to suggest that now and no one is reporting it then we're not turning our job as journalists then

surely we got to see the early draft report and juxtaposed with the final one the difference was striking they cherry picked everything that seemed even and big us lee incriminating those struck by how much the redacted version of the report misrepresented the facts many of the facts and observations outlined in the full version or in extra completely connected and by selectively admitting certain ones an unintended bias has been introduced into the report undermining its credibility in case there was any doubt about which facts to pick they had identified the american agents come in and lecture the chemists on my ass ad was guilty they were to take their word for it the inspectors left fair weathers office feeling that the invitation to the americans to address them was unacceptable pressure and a violation of the o.p.c. w.'s declared principles of independence and impartiality 2 days later the interim

report was released a senior colleague told us 1st floor management says the credibility we have to have a smoking gun you'd think that management would apologize for this. offer some sort of explanation heck even hand in a resignation or 2 while some of these diverse views continue to circulate in some public discussion forums i would like to reiterate that i stand by the independent professional conclusion basically to hell with the u.p.c. w.'s reputation the hell with generations of chemists and scientists who kept the world free of chemical weapons these is the 21st century's o.p.c. w. which can synthesize chemical guilt literally out of thin air. the 2nd category we're looking at this hour is a war in a world $21000.00 was a year of tit for tat hostility and hate from terror attacks around the globe to fight for syrian oriel and of course a trade war between washington and beijing we're going to take

a look at trade wars the world's largest economies are locked in a bitter trade battle but look at how it all started. 2019 soyer a full blown trade war with washington finding on 2 fronts but the art of war whether the conflict is military or economic in nature consists of certain universal status. trade confrontation with china was a u.s. a major concern an idea that trump was fixed on since day one of his presidency china china show that with the enemy chosen the only thing missing was a selected target. so at the beginning of the year the trumpet ministrations started to portray the chinese tech giant huawei as an enemy u.s. secretary of state pale latch that while way is owned by the chinese government and therefore has deep connections to their intelligence services and presents and

national security threats the official urged countries to think twice before signing up was one of the world's biggest tech firms but what's in it for washington well 1st you can get rid of a competitor who had a huge cheer and the market and 2nd and most important of the 5 g. to acknowledge that china was developing and wildly promoting the u.s. wanted to create its own 5 g. so letting china dominate the market would have been a mistake. and made 2019 donald trump banned huawei and the u.s. while way officials denounced the move the fact is the us government has provided no. evidence to assure that. is security threat at the same time trying try to impose additional tariffs on china beijing struck back with tariffs on numerous goods. some major u.s.

allies such as germany refused to support the ban on trading there are 2 things i don't believe and one discussed in this very sensitive security questions publicly and to exclude an accompanist simply because it's from a certain country some european countries even sided with china united against the u.s. while the economist asked amazed at the cost of u.s. china war $2.00 roughly had $700000000000.00 for the global economy the support for trump's actions faded fast even if growth picks up in 2020 the current drifts. could lead to changes. for a generation. the year trump and things seem to reach the phase one deal and the cheve something resembling a cease fire still very few hailed it as a good sign many simply called it

a failure on the part of the trumpet ministration that preliminary agreement and no new tariffs but the future of the economic relationship still remains uncertain so the main question now is will the war continue in 2020 all of the indicators suggest it most certainly will. for now but i'll be back at the top there with the latest thanks for tuning in. it is physics physics is nothing but the harmony you can create on vibrating strings that is chemistry chemistry is the melodies the melodies you can play on strings what is the universe the universe is is a symphony of strings. you

know world big partisan movies a lot of things 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 back and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for washing clothes for watching the hawks.
