it is this is the fund that is from. the global chemical watchdog slams leaks into whistleblowers who question this reporting from the alleged chemical attack on the syrian town of doom or something really a sad government is being blamed for we assess the inconsistency in contradictions in the latest comments by the a p c w also to come danger in the skies of syria a passenger plane now really avoids being hit by air defense is reportedly fired in response to an israeli missile attack and working to terminate them to stop terror and this getting this massive couldn't release from prison sets it on a collision course with the e.u. over human rights we put the issue of to the back. these are people particularly when it if they're going to start applying it to people who are already been

convicted already been sentenced already served part of the sentence then it's unfair potentially a breach of human rights potentially unlawful don't forget they violated people schuman rights to be in there in the 1st. oh they're just going to lebanon evening here in moscow you watching r.t. international now the international chemical watchdog g.o.p. c w has lashed out at the leaks provided by 2 whistle blowers who raise doubts over the bodies report into an alleged chemical attack on the syrian town of duma the incident has long been blamed on syrian government forces however the latest comments by the o.p.c. w. has only raised more questions than answers as more aghast if explains. there are 2 types of investigation the 1st type is intended to find out and explain what went wrong the 2nd type of investigation is intended sudley to cover your butt and the

u.p.c. w. lets you know what type of investigation they've done pretty early on the 1st 2 pages a dedicated they're stressing how independent this report is. and dependent and objectivity and dependent independent dependent independent and then we find out that they were just kidding the boss nominated his deputy to explain how they were both innocent i designated the deputy director general as senior investigating officer this is an investigation into 2 whistleblowers specter a and inspected b. and its intention is to show that they're bad people. whistleblower a was behind the study tran that these cylinders allegedly used in the duma a chemical attack were likely placed at the scene which she had no business doing

in fact according to the soupy she w. report inspects a new body inspector a was not a member of the fact finding mission inspector a played a minor supporting role in the investigation of the duma incident we then find out that the guy who was apparently just there to watch did a whole lot more he was in fact the head of the u.p.c. w.'s syrian command post he helped collect samples of the alleged chemical attack site also at the hospital where he helped tag and seal those all important cylinders they then asked him to invent a rise of the classified information collected on the cylinders and asked him to decide what else might be worth investigating it's right there they say so themselves also remarkable for someone who apparently wasn't even part of the team so he did as he was told inspector a without authorization contacted companies via email about conducting an

engineering study on the cylinders old but they did give him authorization here is where the report stops making any sense they gave him permission to conduct an un or through. study it's nonsense u.p.c. w. tries to get around this by saying they didn't give him permission to share classified information so it's all unauthorized they also tried to dismiss the study by saying he had incomplete evidence somehow for getting that one page ago they admitted to asking him to invent arise the evidence they had on the cylinders in june 2800 inspectors a was assigned to conduct an invention of the highly protected information collected on the cylinders so they apparently lied he did have the relevant information that the u.p.c. w. had at the on those cylinders the evidence and he used that to carry out

a study but but they argue 6 months later after he left they may or may not have had additional information it was created through the misuse of incomplete confidential information by a staff member who had ceased to provide support to the f f m 6 months prior to the release of the final f f m report or duma which isn't in direct admission that he did have all the relevant information at the time in fact it was so relevant this report according to the u.p.c. w. that they ordered it deleted from archives they go on to explain why they did this apparently because inspectors a and b. not whistleblowers they were individuals who could not accept that their views were not backed by evidence allegedly this study of the why is known as a view and which apparently isn't backed by any evidence actually had classified

evidence in it and had to be stored in a special top security archive now we come to the icing the krrish do in this absurd story this study they never even looked at it. in the interests of transparency and completeness inspector a's assessment has been transmitted to the i-t. and will be examined by it in due course which adds another layer of lies they previously claimed they examine and take into account all evidence and when alice but they didn't in this case this single highest profile report they never took seriously. and if you think they treated inspected be any more seriously than inspector 8 you're in for a surprise most of the demon team failed to see reports on the incident the interim report in the final report was scientifically impoverished procedurally regular and possibly fraudulent inspected be end others raised concerns back in june 2018

according to this investigation those concerns were taken into account a month after hearing out all the inspectors and their concerns and their thoughts and their dreams the u.p.c. w. went ahead and excluded most of them from the investigation the point regarding the effort and in particular the ongoing duma work should be discussed with alpha it seem the least of team members was recently sent who not on that least should not be involved on the smetana. courtesy of leaked e-mails posted by wiki leaks apparently the only team member who went to syria who was allowed to pitch into the final report was the team paramedic not the chemist inspect to be nor the engineer inspector a when it comes to inspect a b it's what the u.p.c. w. doesn't mention that's interesting is allegations they never address what the

whistleblowers said of them by dismissing it as irrelevant and unauthorized not inspecting a who's report they apparently didn't even read nor inspected be whose main arguments about evidence suppression and bias at the u.p.c. w. they just ignored well not entirely as could be expected their conclusions are rona's uninformed and wrong mission accomplished but covered and if you are at the u.p.c. w. watching this you may be saddened to learn that you are now going to have to attend mandatory classes on keeping your mouth shut and additional obligatory organization wide confidentiality training program will be instituted for all personnel employed by the secretary at this training will be accompanied by annual atta stations and gas if reporting there will rise from freelance journalist i can't believe that the a.p.c. deputy is using every method it is disposal to justify the same mistakes. fairly

sure that this is been labeled as a security breach just to attack the whistleblowers while i think they're in a very embarrassing situation where you know the reputation of the organization is that there's a risk and to admit that these whistle blows. raised valid concerns about the evidence that they found in duma would be very damaging so i think they've gone on the defensive and try to discredit the people that come forward mr henderson led the team that is to do murder and in 2018 and he wrote his report that you know clearly stated that there was no evidence of chlorine use. and you know the beef found themselves in a situation where they're having to you know manage a ally a century or a narrative that is not congregant with the facts and you know this for us what you have to do when you have to lie you have to kind of fudge the specifics to try and make it fit your case but unfortunately that doesn't work out so well. now

a passenger plane carrying 172 people has been forced to make an emergency landing in syria that after it narrowly missed being hit by the country's their defenses which had reportedly been fired in response to mr rayney air strike russia's defense minister the ministry criticize israel though claiming it had used a civilian aircraft as a shield. only due to the time the actions of damascus airport dispatches and efficient operation of the automated traffic control system did the airbus a 320 manage to successfully land at the closest alternative if wheeled russia's air base i was on the streets when the attack happened here in damascus at about 1 12 am local time here on thursday on the 6th of this month at about $115.00 local time a loud explosion was heard and that was the syrian air defenses. trying to repel

what it looked like an israeli at. and then later on the syrian army command issued a statement clarifying what happened saying that israeli fighter jets carried out attacks from over southern lebanon on the occupied golan heights against various syrian army military targets in damascus around damascus damascus countryside and also played for and which is in that are countryside and the result according to the syrian army was the injury of 8 syrian soldiers and the russian ministry of defense statement which also gave some information important details that there were 4 actually israeli fighter jets who fired at least 8 missiles on various targets in syria at that time and that israel is using civilian passenger aircraft in order to avoid being hit by the syrian air defense system 3 shoes by the israeli joint involving the use of civilian aircraft to shield and prevent retaliation by

syrian air defenses is becoming a distinguishing feature of the israeli air force this is a very important point especially that russian made it clear that this is not the 1st time that this happens it happened in 2018 when also russia criticized israel for in danger and putting in danger to passenger aircraft in 2018 of course 2018 the israeli strikes not coordinated with russia caused the downing of it washing aircraft with 15 russians on board who were killed russia at that time also accused and said that israel is behind this incident put the fault on israel because at the end of the day israeli fighter jets put actually the russian aircraft in the path of the syrian air defense. systems where israel has previously denied he zing aircraft it was against syrian defense systems although this yes to

comment on this particular incident it does however acknowledge that it is carrying out. strikes in syria to stop a rainin military intrench mint now this footage has captured the aftermath of the missile attacks that hit a suburb in the countryside just west of damascus on thursday you can see residents clearing rubble from the streets cars and buildings have been completely destroyed we spoke to people living in the area. we woke in the morning to find this look at this destruction mager take revenge from them look at this people's livelihood is destroyed as you can see yesterday the area was targeted by israel this area has a lot of car hire companies and as you can see many cars were damaged thank god the damage was only material aviation security advocate getting you is why it is difficult for civilian aircraft to avoid danger. clearly what happened was the when

the attacks where the israelis were damascus 30 c. . of the aircraft diverted them to the russian as we've seen recently tragically there are different surface when the source file isn't there there is only one outcome in a military aircraft there are systems on board the aircraft there will detect the launch of them it's not. just the countermeasures or even automatically to record the missile countermeasures appropriate to the type of missile that's been launched at it equally well military aircraft of course it's very maneuverable and can take physical action as well as electronic another countermeasures. another one of those come with that kit it's certainly not standard equipment a civilian aircraft that's not how the new $92.00 to supplement system. that the u.s. attorney general has suggested that america should buy stakes in phone makers like

knock it and their ex and create strong competition against china's huawei william barr added that is now a leader in 5 g. developments and the u.s. and its allies do need to find ways to counter it and there are only 2 companies that can compete with wildly right now. and ericsson the main concern about these suppliers is that they have neither waterway scale nor the backing of a powerful country with a large embedded market like china. now there's been some proposals that these concerns could be met by the united states aligning itself with nokia and or ericsson through american ownership of a controlling stake either directly or through a consortium of private american and allied companies washington has locked horns with holloway and made the only getting trade war with china the u.s. claims the firm has direct ties to the chinese government and also conducts

espionage it also accuses the company of stealing intellectual property always now banned from the u.s. market and washington is also pressuring its allies to block it from their 5 g. networks whether it does deny any wrong doing politics professor joseph gregory mahoney isn't confident though that such moves would lead to fair competition raises a number of serious questions with regard to the fair competition 1st does it kill the market in the west and if you choose nokia or ericsson or one of the other what's the effect on the other competitor what's the effect on samsung another of sort of strange thing that we that we have to think about is the american role as a regulator not only for the american what the american government's role as a regulator not only in the american government but they have ramifications for global regulation these are european companies are the pride of their nation the fact of the matter is. is the attorney general basically suggesting that there

might be you know what we might call in the market terminology a hostile takeover. threat. it could completely. roil the markets it could it could destroy their business plan. some of the u.k.'s 1st policy changes since and even causing something of a stir in its former club because the government says it now wants to end the automatic early release from prison of tariff end is that soft in sunday's attack in london where 2 people with the. by a man released from prison just 10 days earlier currently convicted terrorists are up for automatic release after serving half their sentence but britain's prose legislation could breach the european convention on human rights so london is considering withdrawing its membership however the european commission does more now that that could force it to end judicial cooperation he resisted partnership

should provide for automatic terminations of law enforcement cooperation and judicial cooperation in criminal matters if the united kingdom were to denounce the european convention of human rights we debated the issue with stephen morris from the english democrats party in australia cumin rights lawyer m. car. it's a good idea to have a parole board that deals with each case individually in principle there's nothing wrong with that but if what the reports are suggesting are correct that maybe they want to change the potential released release date from a half of a sentence to 2 thirds and i think that's where the problem comes in well one of the things is a sentence in rules are completely part of them and if somebody gets given a sentence 5 years then the 5 years the us should be let out early anyway then when the fault then you look at the poor ole. suitable for release that this is a very very serious and complicated situation that calls for nuanced.

periods of debate argument consideration not something that the government rushes through in a matter of weeks is a kneejerk reaction well it has to be at the moment because the government over the last few years of an absolutely nothing to address this problem and we do know that there is a number of potential of people in prison the moment. issues that are about to be released but these are people particularly when it if they're going to start applying it to people who are already been convicted already been sentenced already part of their sentence then it's unfair and potentially a breach of human rights potentially unlawful don't forget they violated people human rights to be in there in the 1st place if they're still deemed as a safety risk than they should be in a way because. who is likely to attack or the people is a violation of those pedestrians and those individuals human rights as well in terms of what's been suggested about you know we just keep them up until the sure

that there won't be a risk any more than we have sentences in the 1st place to me they should have been stripped away 5 years if they say 5 to 5 years and release and if not it has to be drawn quickly and it has to be told to make sure that london and all the parts of the u.k. say. sanctions on russian goods imposed by the european union back in 2015 could potentially be lifted by the u.k. once the country concludes its brakes in trade negotiations that's according to the u.k. department for international trade. transition reviews will assess whether the current measure is appropriate for the u.k. markets and whether it should be very changed or terminated industrial products such as aluminum foil seamless pipes iron and steel fittings are among the items that could be removed from the friction zz list will earlier the host of the r.t. show sputnik george galloway join me in studio where i did ask him about the

chances of british relations with russia improving post breaks it. well objectively i mean logically the ought to britain has slipped its moorings in the e.u. and is setting still for the world russia's a major part of the world moscow's the biggest city in europe russia's the biggest country in europe it's one of the world's biggest economies logically britain not to be looking for friends and ought to be looking therefore to thaw if not warm up its relations with russia and there are one or 2 straws in the wind that suggests that britain realizes that at the same time britain's under countervailing pressure from the united states. over the while we have other things. there's something to play for. america's war in iraq did come at

a huge cost in terms of lives and now a new report is also showing just how much it did cost when it came to money a group of scholars has calculated the pentagon spending trillions of dollars funding its military ambitions something that will have a lasting legacy for u.s. taxpayers don't quarter now explains. war has long been part of the american way of life it's in the news connected to many family's lives a popular theme in the media and donald trump has made it clear in his state of the union address more money is being thrown at it to safeguard american liberty we have invested a record breaking $2.00 trillion dollars in the united states military i we have purchased the finest planes missiles rocket ships and every other form of military equipment and it's all made right here in the usa. we're also

getting our allies finally to help pay their fair share with that big of a budget though it's not only america's allies footing the bill the costs of war project estimates that for the iraq war alone every american taxpayer has paid $8000.00 you could go on a vacation for that or spend it on home improvements or you know put it away it's 8 times more than most americans have in their bank accounts my colleague caleb mop and asked new yorkers themselves what they would do with that kind of money what i do if i had $8000.00 extra dollars to spend you pay some medical bills. maybe donate to the bernie sanders campaign a little bit would pay off my car. savings for my retirement pay my credit card off and with hundreds of millions of americans out there those contributions add up to a lot of money even if the us ministration decided to leave or was it from iraq

immediately the bill of war to the u.s. today would be an estimated $1922000000000.00 in current $1.02 trillion dollars that's larger than most countries g.d.p. and there's plenty of other ways to spend that kind of money like paying off the entire country student debt you'd still have been. leans more left over and that could be used to improve underfunded school systems or make sure everyone has health care all that money is just what was spent on the iraq war it's obscene it's criminal. really there was no not at all. there you know really reason for us to be there when you ask people how they would like to spend their tax dollars it usually is education health care. how blick services you know money to go towards the public good but unfortunately we have limited say in how our tax dollars are spent and so some people actually take it to the next step and

they refused to pay federal taxes we could have universal health care and universal higher education but instead we're spending money on the military and the pentagon's got way more expenses than just that let's not forget about its longest war in history afghanistan which is so far cost another $1.00 trillion dollars but the potential cherry on top of this budgetary ice cream sundae is bigger than the entire us economy a $35.00 trillion dollar discrepancy in the pentagon's 2019 budget no wonder it's never passed an audit the pentagon spending accounts who are more spending can't count who're. all the tax money collected every year by american from american taxpayers you know arguably all our taxes go for war everything else is covered by debt you know they borrow the money for the rest of the u.s. budget i think that

a lot of this is. driven by the arms industry in the united states and the fact that they bribe our you know illegally bribe our members of congress in the house and the senate with donations so it's a self generating. engine of destruction. in the. company to not get that. story as usual. thinking of getting a new phone the ones we got in our shop around why it's so they know it's still trapped in this tiny little wired we don't need a crate with the wall. freaking out into the wall when it's raining anywhere near

and thousands of breeding dogs are caged in in 2 main conditions on puppy farm i mean 67 years you know they've been locked up in cages outside you see no protection from the weather the heat you know the courtier the rain the snow the thunder nothing they have no protection. because you. know it's ok. across the us cruel puppy mills are supported by dog shows and still most of the puppies that are coming from these large scale factory farming kind of operations are being sold in stores even joined a group businesses are involved like agoa mom center there has been a shocking amount of organized opposition to adverts to increase the standards of care for dogs bred in commercial rating for so many most of that opposition is coming from huge agricultural groups and industries that have nothing to do with

jobs don't buy dog. in the united states presidential candidates debate the future of the u.s. and the world. max kaiser and stacy herbert dig into the burning questions of this election cycle one self big every week wealth tax student debt trade wars corporate money universal basic in go and more catch up with what's front running this sunday exclusively on how to. in this community there are people who believe that it's ok. it's really hard there are no jobs and you see that i've got kids that ask and as a parent. i can come up with lots of arguments and there's

a lot of conflict within the game and between the 2 teams most of the conflict i would say overall is around money and most of them money is made. close one on the children's cosimo each other is good business the state of california alone makes $6000000000.00 a year of the prison complex just to get some 20 alive where. you don't care and one of my cares about you so you'll hear my do anything. hello and welcome to sophie co visionaries on sophie shevardnadze the new by a magical research and high end technology are completely transforming the way we see understand and treat diseases including the plague of our times cancer well

today i sit down with one of the world's most renowned oncology. man who has many famous people among his patients dr david davis. it's so great to have you with us in our program so as you know it's called sophie code visionaries and you are a true visionary in your field so i got a lot of questions like i'm not a professional right so i'm going to ask you a lot of things that actually lie on the surface because that's what most people are interested in i'm ready. so i don't have this distinct for a world her surgeon is ation the latest one and it says that actually cases and the deaths are rising and i'm thinking we have so many new technologies so much research has been done are we still losing the battle no question about it we're losing the battle for 2 big reasons one is we're continued to smoke so tobacco is still the leading cause of cancer death.
