7:04 am
and it came unexpectedly it started with an eye aerial bombardment we didn't even know that this could all be real like a bolt from the blue bombs were falling out from the sky and your family and friends were dying blood and how we're all around you so the day became worse from the 10th of january and now it's a plane stopped conducting but margins but they started dropping incendiary shelves full of white phosphorus there were 2 periods when the terror had reached its highest point during that time hanged in shock people were lying in the streets you were afraid to go outside because the cars could have come and taken anyone you were afraid to ride a tram as no one knew where the germans might stop a person and take him somewhere terrible this is the movement as opposed to the rules were simple everything was prohibited and you had no rights except working for the nazis this was
7:05 am
a time when the whole society understood particularly in warsaw that it should do everything to do as much harm a spa civil to the occupier. in august of 9044 the polish resistance movement rose up against the occupied trying to seize the capital the wall so uprising less than 63 days before being put down by the nazis at least 150000 people are believed to have died. some in poland nucky soviet forces actually contributing to the failure of the warsaw uprising one of helping it of this betrayed the soviet union is ok pies he told little difference in the nazis however a trove of recently declassified water documents point to a different scenario almost quarter investigates. the nazi occupation one of the darkest chapters in poland's history nearly 6 long years of death and terror left its capital warsaw all but destroyed the occupiers and their collaborators divided the population by race millions of supposed undesirables shift off to perish in the

ovens and gas chambers of the extermination camps women were raped in the streets men women and children mass occurred in pogroms only to be dumped into mass graves by the end of it all 90 percent of polish jews had been exterminated but 75 years ago on the 17th of january soviet forces liberated warsaw back then the people welcome to the soviet troops here's an account from newly declassified documents. the nazis committed a stone nation and terrifying atrocities in poland evidence of human death and suffering was everywhere posed residents met soviet soldiers with happiness and joy for i was they stood in the streets greece in red army troops they saluted officers and soldiers expressing gratitude for liberating the city from nazi occupation but for the city's government now the day the nazis were expelled is no longer an
7:07 am
occasion to celebrate why while today's polish authorities don't look back with any fondness for those liberators or anything to do with moscow right now to them vladimir putin is a liar for daring to say poland benefited from the munich agreement which carved up czechoslovakia in 1938 giving nazi germany and warsaw the spoils the polish authorities also don't like that putin called their pre-war ambassador an anti semite despite the envoys enthusiastic approval of hitler's plan to deport germany's jews to africa but of course it's all really just russia's plan to destroy poland's great reputation a lie that is repeated a 1000 times becomes the truth as google said today we're talking about an attempt to undermine confidence in poland in the eyes of the world community and the kremlin's intentions to sow division within the european union and nato putin seeks to portray poland as supposedly the not quite right part of the west while these
7:08 am
very statements are part of propaganda preparations ahead of the 75th anniversary of the liberation of auschwitz and the anniversary of the end of world war 2 could that mean israel's in cahoots with russia's propaganda plot to after all tell of eve didn't invite the polish president to speak at its auschwitz liberation ceremony he's decided to boycott the whole event in protest especially since vladimir putin is on the list of honored speakers it turns out that the presidents of russia. germany and france whose countries collaborated with nazi germany will speak but the organizers did not agree to a speech by the president of poland the ability to speak in regards to this matter is against the interests of the polish republic ok so poland doesn't want to rub shoulders with those abroad who don't support its historical narrative but at home the law gets tough if you're not on the same page anyone who publicly and contrary
7:09 am
to the facts denies crimes referred to in article one shall be subject to find all the penalty of imprisonment of up to 3 years the sentence shall be made public except the law only mentions the crimes of the nazis twice most of the text is reserved for describing the actions of the country's liberators from poland it's not so much a question about who the good or bad guys were now it's a mission to blur the lines between the 2 opposing ideologies fascism and communism as the 2nd world war fades from living memory the victim card becomes that much easier to play. the polish government does not officially mark the anniversary of all sorts liberation with commemorations limited to 2 privately organized events director of the israel office of the simon wiesenthal center talk to friends or of gave us his thoughts on poland's children with russia the morsels perception of the world. in practically every single post crime in this country they're busy to
7:10 am
rewrite the narrative of world war 2 in the holocaust to do 4 things use one is to hide minimize the role played by local local nazi collaborators which in eastern europe was extremely significant and you have to remember that only in eastern europe to collaboration with the nazis include participation a systematic mass murder of jews to their trying to promote the canard the law of equivalence see between communists and that see crimes this simply not true they want communist crimes to be declared genocide which they weren't there was i don't want to in any way minimize khamis crimes which claimed hundreds of thousands millions of victims all over all over the eastern europe but it was not genocide there was never any attempt to totally wipe out the people there was not industrialized mass murder the way the germans created in auschwitz for a blink of bells it's my dad nick sobibor hell though so this is simply that true
7:11 am
they are also a glorifying people who fought against the soviets even if they murder jews they helped murder jews during the holocaust you would assume that if someone had participated in those crimes that would disqualify them from being the national heroes and the 1st point is they're pushing for a joint a moral day for all the victims of totalitarian regimes and other words of communism and of naziism in the day they chose of course is august 23rd $939.00 so in other words what are they doing the comparing the country which conceived planned built and ran the biggest mass murder factory in human history auschwitz birkenau with a country with aids for else in the france are many and the crimes of many whose army the red army liberated that that death camp and stop the mass murder so that's absurd. what interpretation politicize ation of history was also touched
7:12 am
upon today by russia's foreign minister sergey lavrov. op with q. poland's attempt to smear and lie about our country both was regard to reasons and outcomes of the 2nd world war and attempts to now use these lies to undermine russia's position in the international arena abound to continue we know for a fact that our polish colleagues are trying to get western countries attending the commemoration ceremony in jerusalem to air poland's viewpoint on world war 2 you know it's simply beyond the pale especially given the tragic context of the event article response in a for trying to without that press conference for us. time after time at this press event the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov it seems had nor their choice but to keep talking about washington's behavior in terms of how it deals with other countries according to the tactic of constantly building up pressure while at the
7:13 am
same time turning a blind eye on the international law it's not only that it hasn't changed in the previous year but actually expand it take for example the russia japan relations moscow believes that they have fallen victim to washington's alliance with tokyo which according to circle of rob is being used by the americans to continue convincing the rest of the world that russia is an enemy and a threat you can issue that you japan is hosting u.s. anti missile defense systems and the japanese colleagues have been telling us all along it's meant as defense against the korean threats and that's only the japanese military will have control over it but it's the very same u.s. launches that have been tested by the u.s. not only for launching anti missile defensive but also offensive missiles and have a look at the u.s. military strategy they are cooling russia a rival so we can't help but worry. moving on to syria mr lavrov
7:14 am
proudly pointed out that the conflict and that country was in the final stage of its resolution the final stage of and the civil war there however mr lavry of did blame other countries mainly western countries for setting preconditions before they could start actually helping the country out for instance when it comes to assisting the refugees that could come back to the country or providing the ability to deliver humanitarian aid there plus sergey lavrov did point out that there is still a threat of the islamic terrorists hands being tied as a result of the mistakes deliberate or not by some. the forces on the ground which are allied to the us with the police and on the east and bank of the euphrates around $10000.00 i still militants if i'm not mistaken are being held in detention camps by the syrian democratic forces who control those areas these are mainly
7:15 am
could issue fighters and are receiving a lawman reports which we currently double checking that these is the a fighters are releasing these terrorists in exchange for bribes and they are beginning to spread across syria the information is very alarming and we've long warned our american partners who have sway over the as if of the need to make sure that i assume militants are not allowed to escape those camps well this brings me to what proved to be the shortest answer of the russian foreign minister at this press conference and i guess it could serve as a lesson for the future generations of journalists don't ask sergey lavrov about impeachment proceedings in other countries because he's not in charge of that. day . president trump each man is expected to get underway in the senate was up to command in the west say this could weaken us it's quieter ukraine yes trancing russia's position how could you comment on that to me at
7:16 am
a time when you know who the impeachment is in the us you're american you would know better than me. going back to internal conflicts in all parts of the world and protest movements that moscow believes are being fueled by some of the nato countries and nato is head master in particular sort of said that he doesn't think the situation will anyhow change in 2020 but that doesn't mean that moscow will stop its attempts to try and talk and still somehow cooperate. the iran nuclear treaty was among other topics addressed by russia's foreign minister on tuesday tehran's european partners triggered a 60 day mechanism that could potentially kill off. the ill fated agreement however turns out they did so under the threat of economic pressure from president trump who pulled the u.s. out of the deal by can t. $1018.00 lavrov slammed washington for applying double standards toward its partners. used the joint comprehensive plan of action remain firm into group can't
7:17 am
international law it's been approved by the un security council as a compulsory resolution american decided to enact laws of their own to abandon this plan and not only stop complying with the deal book bar everyone else from trading with iran but they still demand that tehran complies with a document called the worst ever by president trump everyone has to bow to the u.s. but iran should comply it's a disturbing situation. to speak to all of us been following this story for us afternoon where does that leave the iran's nuclear deal. well dying but not dead basically that's where the iran nuclear deal is at the moment so they're very clear his displeasure at the actions from the united states putting pressure on european nations to implement what's known as the dispute resolution mechanism in the iran deal we'll get to what exactly that means in just a moment but there has been reaction from iran and from the iranian supreme leader
7:18 am
to this decision taken by britain germany and france. the u.k. germany and france are doing nothing they will serve u.s. interests they're just puppet. well while london borough in where i'm talking to you from right now in paris would really agree with being considered as puppets of the united states what is certain and what's come out of the german defense ministry from. the defense minister widely tipped as a potential successor to angola merkel when she eventually calls it a day she said that yes there was pressure put on european nations by donald trump and by the united states that they'd threaten to impose 25 percent tariffs on export imports i beg your pardon into the united states of european cars and car pair car parts as well now there would be really quite quite stringent quite
7:19 am
expensive tariffs to be placed on these european nations and they essentially gave in caved in to that pressure well while britain france and germany decided to activate the dispute resolution mechanism their respective foreign ministers of being well unified in saying that they still want to try and keep the iran deal alive. we have therefore been left with no choice given iran's actions but to register today our concerns that iran is not meeting its commitments we do this in good faith with the overarching to object to of preserving the j. c.p.o. a well what the activation of this clause in the iran deal actually means is that wealth in around 60 days if nothing's changed the united nations could really impose sanctions on iran if that happens that's pretty much the death knell for the 2015 rainy a nuclear deal that's something that washington definitely wants to see donald
7:20 am
trump pulled the united states unilaterally out of the iran deal in may of 2018 and since then as actively work to well collapse the deal saying that it was a bad deal for all involved well whether he's able to do that or not we'll have to wait and see but the. this is certainly a move towards showing that the u.s. is very keen to even put economic pressure all its closest partners in order to try and shut down the iranian nuclear deal peter oliver the latest there from berlin thank you thank you still to come for you british police are reported to have covered up the most profound sexual abuse in the northern city of manchester details on that story after this break. well it's finally begun the impeachment of donald trump the president and his
7:21 am
supporters say the process is nothing more than a political witch the democrats in the liberal corporate media say trump is a national security threat and must be removed but in the end it would seem democracy itself being impeached. you know world of big partisan lot and conspiracies 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 smart we need to stop slamming the door. 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 we're watching closely watching the hawks.
7:22 am
u.k. police new children were suffering the most profound sexual abuse in the northern city of manchester but did not protect them a new independent reporters found offices in 2004 launched operation ore guster so investigate the issue that the report requested by the crime commission the probe was provincially closed down before it could complete its work.
7:23 am
the official investigation was closed due to lack of resources the whistleblower maggie oliver a former munch the police detective who worked on operational guster says that there were other reasons. the decision to close down operation orchestra was driven by the decision of senior officers to remove the resources from the investigation this was because it was a very complex investigation but there were other factors involved in the decision to close it down there was definitely an element of concern about the ethnicity of the offenders being pakistani man and the children being very vulnerable white
7:24 am
children there was also the resources issue and because it's very labor intensive it takes a lot of time it takes a lot of commitment from an organization to resource a job like this and also and there was a focus on what we call acquisitive crime so burglaries theft from motor vehicle robberies if somebody reported that kind of a crime to the police you would get a 1st class response if you were a child being raped it wasn't being reflected in performance indicators hence the police did not respond the initial investigation was triggered by the death of victoria golyer she was in the care of manchester city council following her mother's death the girl was subjected to sexual assault and injected with heroin a 50 year old man the report says carers knew that abuse was going on but didn't act on police failed to bring the perpetrators to justice 15 or victoria died after being administered with a heroin overdose the tories grandmother says that since her death she's been
7:25 am
battling to discover the truth. she was such a lovely girl she didn't deserve to die i've been fighting all my life for this she told me herself what these men had done to her. the authorities knew that many victims were being subjected to the most profound abuse and exploitation but did not protect them from the perpetrators and as a result very few of the relevant perpetrators were brought to justice and neither were their activities disrupted this is a depressingly familiar picture and has been seen in many other towns and cities across the country. and soldiers announced a criminal investigation following the report's findings the chief constable amongst the police has offered his condolences to victims of the officers will do everything to get justice for the children my gilliver again want senior police and other officials themselves to be investigated for this cover up and that's the only
7:26 am
word there is for it was absolutely deliberate this report this review and it's an independent 3 view makes it crystal clear that this was a deliberate cover up there was a reluctance to knowledge that it was pakistani man predominantly who were abusing vulnerable young white children and very young children that became a political hot potato it was often sad that these kids of 11 and 12 were making a lifestyle choice that they were working as prostitutes years that they were back to care if that is never the case they were vulnerable kids who we had a duty to protect and the orthorexic failed time and time again to do that this is criminal neglect in my opinion it is misconduct in a public office at the highest level and i want to see accountability criminal
7:27 am
charges brought against senior police officers senior social workers and potentially going right up to the government if culpability can be shown there for the neglect of people in public office. he she is saying with our team to forget you can check out more news stories by heading to our website sorted dot com. max keiser financial survival guide stacey let's learn about fill out let's say i'm the troika here on greece some banks have to fight 'd prostrate fraud thank you for taking. on the story that's right if debt slavery.

senate as for donald trump's impeachment trial is there any doubt the president will be acquitted you take a look at that on this edition of politics. politicking on larry king the articles have been. teach me of against donald trump bar in mitch mcconnell's hands right now and purple ration for the some the trial begins while the outcome seems like a foregone conclusion that this point questions remain about well the witnesses will be allowed to testify or not what impact might that make and will any of this affect the fall elections there's talk that with political panel they are alix mole the inform and general counsel for the national republican senatorial committee he's in washington and then mountain view california zach friend who are him for brog obama and john kerry's presidential campaign it's ok would he had may
7:30 am
alix the a make it shouldn't there be witnesses couple of things the luck from an institutional perspective house was the one who is supposed to have witnesses they did in creep that record an in the senators are supposed to serve is jurors you don't get to retry your caves just because you don't like it now that being said if this follows the president from the clinton impeachment which i think it well and i think that's constructive way to proceed after both side to get to make their case in a response this senate will likely have an opportunity to consider additional witnesses i don't think that's a foregone conclusion either way but i think the house made a decision from a timing perspective when they moved to head with the information that they had one of their consequences is the you don't get to drag it out forever and say well we'd like to morrow
