global chemical weapons watchdog slams to form an inspector who exposed significant flaws in its report on alleged chemical attack in the syrian city duma we look at the credibility of these planes. a couple accused of arranging the murder of their adopted son in order to collect an insurance payout of walked free but now they will not be extradited to india to face trial a high court citing human rights concerns. so we can u.s. democratic party primary in the state state of iowa by technical glitches irregularities and make sure announcements with washington's hysterical response november's electoral confusion and socialism.

thanks for joining us this is r.t. . the international chemical weapons watchdog a p c w has lashed out at the links provided by 2 whistleblowers who revealed serious defects in its final report on an alleged chemical attack in the syrian city of duma unverified video emerged in april of 28 claimed to show the aftermath of that alleged assault was immediately blamed on syrian government forces promising the u.s. u.k. and france to carry out airstrikes on scientific the cities they blamed for the incident even before any probe had taken place. explains how the o.p.c. that we use latest comments appear to restore trust in the official version. 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 soonly 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 stressing at 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 inspect a 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 would likely placed at the scene which he 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 inspectors a and b a not whistle blowers they were individuals who could not accept that their views were not backed by evidence they also tried to dismiss the study by saying he had incomplete evidence somehow forgetting that one page ago they admitted to asking him to invent

a rise the evidence they had on the cylinders now we come to the icing the question 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. and if you think they treated inspected be any more seriously than inspector 8 you're in for a surprise most the duty and focus he reports on the instant 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 and in particular the ongoing duma work should be discussed with of of 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 inspector 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 never address what the whistleblowers said of them by dismissing it as irrelevant and unauthorized not inspecting a whose 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 access stations writer and freelance journalist down to believe that the o.p.c. w. is using every method it can to justify 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 their reputation of the organization is that is at risk to admit that these whistleblowers. raised valid concerns about

the evidence that they found in duma would be very damaging so i think they've gone on the offensive and try to discredit the people that come forward mr henderson led the team that is to do murder in 2018 and he wrote his report that you know clearly stated that there was no evidence of chlorine use. and you know that found themselves in a situation where they're having to you know manager a lie essentially a narrative that is not congressman with the facts and you know that's your 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. britain is at the epicenter of another extradition scandal the u.k. high court has denied the indian government's request to extradite a gerbil accused of arranging the nurture of their adopted son this isn't based on concern over a possible violation of the human rights in india the scene the couple walked free

for now the couple deny the allegations edwards dashti with. the old saying goes that no one is above the law but it seems that some people aren't subject to either a british couple adopted an 11 year old orphan boy in india and promised him a better life but now they're charged with the ranging his murder all for a lump sum of life insurance payout. indian place have been battling for over 2 years to get their hands on the couple but to no avail and now british high court judges have ruled they can't be extradited but not because the evidence against them isn't strong enough i find very circumstantial prime aphasia case that ms dear mr a jogger acted together and with others committed the offense to set out above

despite all this the u.k. won't send the back why well because of one crucial piece of indian at a station that means the packet face a sentence of life without parole if convicted of double murder in the country which the united kingdom says would preach their human rights i find that there are substantial grounds for believing that they would face a real risk of being subjected to treatment like a review of a life sentence which would be inhuman and degrading this would be a breach of article 3 the court's decision falls within the european convention on human rights but the ruling is raising concerns here in britain do we really want suspected child killers roaming the streets of london this is an absolutely crime and i think many people would agree there needs to be the harshest of sentences if they are found guilty it is up to the indian legal system to decide on the appropriate penalty and we should not be standing in the way of justice being served for the victims but the decision to keep criminals here in the u.k. raises alarm bells as the concept of human rights even for those abusing them seems

to provide a quick get out of jail free card the fact is here justice has been denied. to the indian people the process of a trial has been prevented because of the european human rights legislation when we're saying that they can't even stand trial because the possibility that they will receive what is called an irreducible life sentence in india means that the possible sentence violates their human rights what the british government is saying is that there is no assurance in place that these 2 people will not be treated in the same way as they would have been had they been arrested in india what we are saying to the indian government and to be proved right your priorities is that your criminal justice system simply isn't good enough to try our citizens for what it's an incredibly serious offense indian people cannot hold people to account under the terms of the justice system without the european and british courts saying you're justice isn't isn't good enough i think these cases show is that actually what it does it creates

a difference in treatment between european citizens and the rest of the world. there's a closed hearing taking place against a private security company accused of spying on julian assange a spanish court is deciding if the firm violated the privacy of the wiki leaks publishing company you see global was hired to protect the ecuadorian embassy in london while the science was living there last summer recordings of the science from inside the embassy were leaked online and allegations of emerged the company might have shared surveillance with the cia so far the u.s. intelligence agency and ecuadorian embassy officials have declined to comment and the director of u.c. global says that all information regarding the case is confidential. r.t. spoke to julian assange his lawyer who's been attending the trial he claims the company shared thousands of documents with the cia. existing only in their event there's a large amount of evidence related to the work that the u.c. global company carried out while providing security services to the embassy the

company's e-mails indicate priority espionage goals including mr songes lawyers doctors and ecuadorian diplomats themselves there was also evidence that they gave the gathered information to u.s. intelligence these are hundreds if not thousands of images of past documents on the visits of mr assad photos of visas entry and exit stamps they also installed bugs inside the embassy one of them was placed on a fire extinguisher in the meeting room this listening device recorded many hours of mr sanders meetings which led to reinforce the case mr sloan suspected that they were spying on him and started holding his meetings at the back of the building in the female restroom as soon as they discovered it they installed the 2nd microphones there. genocide was arrested in london in april of last year and is serving a 50 week sentence for skipping bail back in 2012 he also faces extradition to the

u.s. on espionage and computer hacking charges they reckon case centers on the publication by wiki leaks of thousands of classified military files and 2010 including this incriminating video of american troops in iraq convicted a science could get a prison term of up to 175 years the final stage of his extradition trial has been pushed back until may meanwhile a science remains in belmarsh prison. so it was only recently moved from solitary confinement after repeated appeals by his legal team citing poor health he still faces tight restrictions on visitors while his lawyers say that they've also found it difficult to meet their client in an open letter last month dozens of leading medical experts warned the u.k. government that the wiki leaks co-founder could even die in prison we discussed the issue with his lawyer. seen start out on prison he's been kept in very severe conditions during the day he spent little time out scientists he is practically in isolation all this was in his state of health recently the un special rapporteur on

top job mr mills milt visited mr sands with a team of doctors and found that such a situation considering his health could be described by legal authorities as torture. ok say but there's more news after the break. you know world big part of a lot of conspiracy it's time. 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 troops the time is now we're watching

closely watching the hawks. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race. spearing dramatic developments only. i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. welcome back the final results from the botched iowa democratic primary remains unclear despite all precinct information now being given the party state officials have spent the week trying to verify results following

a technical glitch in the voting up one of the contenders named himself the winner before he was even released this column open explains the u.s. would've gone all in on the 2 had the same thing happened in a socialist country. often the way we interpret events can be very subjective if something happens to someone else we see it one way but it happens to us we see it very differently let's compare the electoral confusion in bolivia last october to the electoral confusion in the us state of iowa last week in both situations an election took place and the results were delayed and then authorities said that some irregularities had happened throughout the collection of records over results the i would democratic party identified in consistencies in the data and used the redundant paper records to probably correct those errors there was intentional manipulation and serious irregularities the make it impossible to validate the results originally issued by the bolivian electoral foresees in both instances the

public spoke up and cried foul folks i don't know what is going on with the iowa democratic party and the slow trickle of results how many of the counties are having their results foolishly reported by the i.d.p. every county needs to release the results now the iowa caucus was rigged by mayor cheapie pursued own. and in both instances the authorities agreed and said that the concerns had to be addressed what happened in iowa was unacceptable and the party chair has acknowledged that he's apologized for that and we have worked together over the last few days to fix the challenges to see the i have decided 1st to replace every member of the supremum like total tribunals and 2nd the whole national elections to allow the bolivian people to democratically elect a new government with a new political activists except the similarities stop here in iowa

a recount is being conducted to make sure the ultimate results are correct and in bolivia the military toppled the government and a woman who wasn't even a candidate in the election has declared herself to be the new leader. how. i see in the presidency with the middle of the fact in line with the constitution and pres to take all measures necessary to bring peace to the country. while many have declared what happened in bolivia to be a military coup the us secretary of state branded it as a transition to democracy we recognize the importance of believe us political transition to democracy in our hemisphere and we had minor the believe in people for standing up for their constitution their democracy and for free fair and transparent elections after morale a sled things have been pretty messy in bolivia and that's why my resigning so that my opponents do not continue to persecute more socialist brothers.

i'm wondering if the organization of american states as they were said in an election i want you to figure out what's what's going on where you know it's clear that in the case of bolivia. the cleaning of the electoral discrepancies to justify any campaign to demonize this and then ultimately to overthrow him the reason why debating against him i was adopted just because he pursued policies that were of object to us on leash in the region so the difference is that in the case of in the case of iwo the presumption is it's just a technical problem or you know there's nothing sort of sinister going on whereas in the case of the government that's all sided with washington and also i was on the whites and it was a different standard so if a u.s.

state has some electoral confusion we'll look into the matter and get it straightened out however if a socialist government that is friendly to russia and china has a mix up at the polls it's time to reduce the country to chaos kaleb up and r.t. new york. following an unsuccessful u.s. backed coup last year the u.s. has imposed a nother round of sanctions on caracas washington has blacklisted venezuela's largest airline and threatened new restrictions on foreign firms who work in the country russia's foreign minister expressed solidarity with venezuela during a visit to the capital. we reiterate our solidarity towards various wally and the venezuelan people in their fight against the united states we denounce all methods such as blackmail illegal sanctions and the attempts to dictate the will of the people as well as the interference in internal state matters. not in any one people there is no police here for imperialist that's illegal sanctions and military

intervention we again reiterate that we seek peace and as well it can tolerate sanctions and black meal. the latest round of u.s. sanctions targets 40 aircraft of venezuela's national carrier comes on top of existing penalties on the country's firms including the main oil company under the restrictions u.s. companies are barred from directly importing venezuelan crude and the scene financial transactions between the 2 countries severely limited earlier this week the terms of ministration threaten to sanction firms whose activities help the venezuelan government including russia's biggest oil producer rosneft. in the meantime venezuelan opposition figurehead wang why don't was warmly welcome to washington up to the white house backed him in last year's coup attempt to receive fresh pledges of support. of stay with you mr president in that fight here this evening it's a very brave man who carries with him the hopes dreams and aspirations of all there

is well it's joining us in the gallery is the true illegitimate president of venezuela why and why do. journalist paul dobson says washington is resorting to increasingly direct sanctions against key parts of venezuela's economy. the sanctions we've seen applied by the united states over the last last year essentially how to have been limited to direct sanctions they've been rhetoric off secondary sanctions on 3rd parties but at the moment this is only rhetoric it's not unsurprisingly it now targeted yet another state owned industry inverness way or they've targeted oil of gold and a range of other public industry so it's not unsurprising they're now target in the aircraft as well yes and we've seen a very clear tendency of the last 12 months or where one where there has have lost support very here in venezuela and internationally so i think this is one of the

last cards of washington left to play in quite a tale that we could see to receive him in the way that donald trump did and to give him a standing ovation here sieved is clearly a published at least and to try and boost his popularity very internationally and here in venice way less. senior lawmakers in britain's ruling conservative party have demanded that while way is banned from developing the country's 5 g. telecoms network was in jordan for a means by which we ensure that only trusted vendors are allowed as primary contract does into a critical infrastructure it comes as the government approved limited involvement from the chinese tech giant on a trip to london last week u.s. state secretary mike pompei repeated washington's opposition the issue has sparked a massive rift between the u.s. and u.k. the u.s. vice president even hinting that it will put the trade talks at risk mike pence insists that he is worried about the security implications for britain from using

while ways equipment. we are profoundly disappointed we just don't believe that that utilizing the assets the technology of while away is consistent with the security or privacy interests of the u.k. of the united states he spoke to former british m.p. george galloway the on the u.s. u.k. split over while way under their issues as the country develops new foreign policy ties after quitting the european union. we're always looking over our shoulder of the united states that's the nature of the special relationship but it doesn't require us to be slavish in the special relationship and to be fair to boris johnson not a phrase i often use he did stand up against from those bullying and bluster all over the why we have why we will be involved in a g.

network not truly. comprehensively in a significant way and it's reported that trump was in kind desolate with boris johnson and sounds pretty colorful. 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 ought 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 suggest that britain realizes that at the same time britain's armed countervailing pressure from the united states. over the while we have other things

saw there's something to play for. in the balance this year is going to be one of intense negotiation over these trading hours britain will want to be free to strike deals with other countries the are more american style free trade deals free markets free enterprise less regulation less red tape the european union will want the opposite how we balance these 2 things would be a feat of statesmanship and women but the man behind you it lives up to that possibility. ok appreciate company here and i'll say stay with us if you can. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guest of

the world of politics sports business i'm showbusiness i'll see you then. thinking of getting a cue from the ones we got in here should watch this video and still trapped in this tiny little wired you don't need a crate with him he will just. freaking out and he won't want to spread even anywhere near it thousands of breeding dogs are caged in inhumane 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 cold air the rain the snow the thunder nothing they have no protection. looking at you. it's a kid. across the u.s. cruel puppy mills are supported by dog shows and pet stores most of the puppies

that are coming from these large scale factory farming kind of operations are being sold in stores even giant a good businesses are involved like ogling mom santa there has been a shock. amount of organized opposition to adverts to increase the standards of care for dogs bred in commercial breeding facilities most of that opposition is coming from huge agricultural groups and industries that have nothing to do with dogs don't buy dog. the. i am max kaiser this is the kaiser report does anyone really remember iceland remember the banks loaned money to themselves to buyback their own stock. it's all the whole thing collapsed and the whole country collapsed. keep in mind

stacy yes there is a lot of corporate leverage in america and it's driving stock prices higher and higher and ever higher no matter what the real economy shows but no matter what all the copper to dry index and all that sort of stuff shows so we're going to look at china limiting down and the usa hitting magda despite what is happening and iowa and all the election stuff happening you know we have maggie making america great again we have 1st tweet for the 1st time ever there are for one trillion dollar companies in the u.s. apple microsoft google and amazon you might say instead microsoft apple google and amazon maggie all right right and remember back in iceland there were i think 3 banks and their market capitalization went incredibly high because they were engaged in a massive accounting fraud of borrowing money from the don't buy their own stock

and then it blew up so these trillion dollar corporations are involved in accounting fraud multiple accounting fraud says we have a numerated on this show and now it's having its big moments and it'll be spectacular fireworks to see how this all plays out well in fact when iceland was buying up the entire high street major corporations throughout the united kingdom we were asked by al-jazeera english at the time to go make a film about it we said that this was all going to blow up because it was basically leverage and that happened and then right after that what happened copper fell ball to dry index fell and we were making a show for the b.b.c. b.b.c. world at that time and that was one of our 1st episodes ever was covering the baltic dry in the.
