liberation they say so if there was no red army then there wouldn't be me or other prisoners or my mother i have never questioned the merits of the soldiers i have always been grateful the prime minister and the president criticize the red army equally it was the same under previous authority as now the admit there was a liberation of auschwitz but at the same time they say there was no liberation of war so they call that the 2nd occupation. was liberated but that was and other cities were not i don't know maybe the americans liberated them. opening another front in the global trade war washington is now targeting longtime allies in europe it's renewed threats to slap tariffs on the blocks or to trade in response to the news move to impose a digital tax on u.s. tech giants shouted dubinsky brings us the details from paris. not being is
10:13 am
a beethoven for the idea is give a little here get a lot there for global companies it's often a direct line to the heart of power for generations boozy lunches were once the fashion but now it seems did still giants more interested in offering up a cup of joe as in use plans to introduce a digital tax take for it seems the big 4 that google amazon facebook and apple are trying their best to cozy up to process. i don't think it's a good idea to talk about politics or policy with a glass of wine in your hand and excellent food offered by a person who has clear interests to represent and then there is a little less transparent lobby because there are members of industry associations well they have consultants working for them so you talk to people and you don't realize if they are representing the interests of google or facebook or silicon valley because the names are different these lobbyists seem to have some very deep pockets according to transparency international in 2019 google spent some 8000000
10:14 am
euros trying to get into brussels good graces while the lobbying budgets of the big 4 have. since 2014 so why is this new digital tax regime causing them such a headache well until recently most digital giants pay their tax bill in the country where they're registered but as they've grown questions are being asked as to why they were paying tax income derived in individual countries their fronts led the charge by imposing the so-called gas attacks causing the trumpet ministration to go into a tailspin. but the companies are one of the british version of. they're going to be taxed it's going to be. gone and from you they are still talking things through. or simply over a free couple from facebook other countries in europe are no gearing up to take
10:15 am
a slice of the profits point even the brits you know the longer agree with the e.u. on anything on the same page plan to go ahead with article services tax it's really says it too is gearing up for digital tax leaving the us to throw more threats of tariffs as if they're like a buy one get one free offer we've been pretty clear that we think that the digital discriminatory in nature but it seems with a new terror threat so almost a weekly basis from the trumpet ministration the french a boy by the idea of safety in numbers what will they do tomorrow go off to austria and spain italy the united kingdom all the other countries across the globe that will implement digital tax we're going to global trade which is in nobody's interest and the result is not worth the action it's taken them a while but it does appear that all e.u.
10:16 am
countries are now on the same page all in agreement that they should be taxing digital giants which means if no agreement is made globally in the next few months starting with to paris next week the u.s. and e.u. the old allies could find themselves going head to head jollity pinski r.t. paris while we spoke economics professor steve keen he believes that america's push for its own national interests is actually having a detrimental effect on everyone else. since trump is in charge he'll do whatever he sees as being a win situation for america and a loss for the rest of the world i think of the cost of the because these companies are mainly american and he's going to oppose taxes on them and they'll continue with that english axis and he could easily threaten to cut access to the guts of the countries if they are the company's services there or if they're required to pay taxes in national jurisdictions like europe probably think they have to pay
10:17 am
taxes in america from a common global way and of course that undermines the whole idea of having national succession systems. came along between the law of the actions not of the founding crowd of principles but one right sexpot some fault. line to. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race. and spearing dramatic development only. i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. you know one of the best

a case against the lula da silva this is just a little journalistic behavior and i what's happened to glenn is part of a worldwide really crackdown on free press that isn't in a controlled corporate media this is got to stop this is an important case and i hope that glenn gets free and stays in brazil gives and has to do the job he's been doing. and to round off a synthesis our u.n. experts have called for an investigation into an alleged mobile phone hacking plot involving the wallet of richest man after forensics implicated the saudi crown prince the analysis of amazon jeff bezos as a telephone showed his device was infiltrated from a number years by mohammed and solomon through a private message that is also has the washington post outlet where dissident journalists walk before being killed at the saudi embassy in total about 20 r.t.s. caleb maupin has the details. you want to fish holes are calling for an
10:24 am
investigation into allegations that the phone of jeff bezos the world's richest man was hacked and who is the top suspect the kingdom of saudi arabia this is from the u.n. report the alleged hacking of mr bezos his phone i'm those of others demands immediate investigation by the u.s. and other relevant authorities including investigation of the continuous munty a direct and personal involvement of the crown prince in efforts to target perceived opponents the allegation is that the messenger application known as whatsapp was used to violate the privacy of the billionaire business owner in the united states and furthermore that the number used was apparently a number that has actually been used by mohamed bin solomon himself what's interesting here is that not only is jeff bezos the owner of amazon he's also the owner of the washington post that's the newspaper that employed to malta shoji and apparently that is what the crown prince was after the information we have received
10:25 am
suggests the possible involvement of the crown prince in surveillance of mr bezos in an effort to influence if not silence the washington post reporting on saudi arabia these allegations are relevant as well to ongoing evaluation of claims about the crown prince's involvement in the 20000 murder of saudi and washington post june this jamal khashoggi to malta shoji went into the saudi embassy in istanbul 'd and never returned he was literally hacked to pieces in october 28 teams and many allege that it was the crown prince himself who ordered the killing now after the killing of jamal khashoggi outrage swept the planet the united states included however the trump administration gave a response but it was slow we have identified at least some of the individuals responsible including those in the intelligence services the royal court the foreign ministry and other saudi ministries who we suspect to have been involved in mr can show you is death. i don't like stopping mess of amounts of money that's
10:26 am
being poured into our country spending $110000000000.00 on military equipment and things that create. like. others for this country the kingdom of saudi arabia purchases huge amounts of u.s. weapons and supplies us oil giants with huge amounts of crude the multi-billion dollar relationship seems to take priority over the war in yemen human rights and other concerns riyadh denies any wrongdoing however the united nations once the usa to conduct its own investigation to get to the bottom of what actually happened however if the killing of jamal khashoggi has shown us anything it's that the relationship with the monarchy is worth more than any allegations. r.t. new york well that's how its own looking for now a website on always has more to tell us stories such as get out have a good day. operations
10:27 am
understand that the cost of doing business is buying and building support in washington d.c. and that includes staffing up with former members of congress put them on your payroll you want to hire a chief of staff from a powerful senator or a committee. member get their chief of staff put them on your payroll as a lobbyist this is what washington does on a bipartisan basis in fact i think it's the only point of true bipartisanship in d.c. is corporate influence over governor. from the. people why is the keep the slow force new the focus on the so do you still. want. to see the.
10:28 am
10:29 am
to get into this but i just want to mention it right here at the top it's the money velocity chart. yeah the money velocity chart and we're going to be getting into that momentarily stacey in fact that's how you're getting into this chart is by throwing it to me because i have that chart in my 1st headline here and it's a tweet while m $2.00 money stock doubled up 8 trillion dollars since the financial crisis m $2.00 money velocity the rate at which people spend money decreased by 30 percent it appears that newly minted money q.e. and simulate doesn't really make its way to the economy and spending where is the money why prints more so as you know the fed keeps on printing more more more their balance sheet is increasing. like straight up v. shaped since mid september early october and yet they're pumping it into a dead system because all they're doing and all they can do is give it to
10:30 am
billionaire bankers who can't even of spend the money they already have so it just sits there it hoards it doesn't move it doesn't circulate we have zombie companies in a zombie economy it's worse than gold now that that chart goes back many years and we've been talking about it for many years and the reason why economists like paul krugman or others modern economist roubini roubini they don't like gold because they believe on the side they're fractional reserve banking where banks hold only a fraction of their reserves on their books and they lend that out and then the banks receiving that hold a fraction on their books and they lend that out and they create a loss of the of money so that the economy can grow faster and more robustly than if you had gold because gold if it was a 100 percent gold backed economy it would be in virtually impossible to joe.
