interesting week here he is on the russian propaganda network occy which casually opens the segment with some facts about u.s. imperialism when he was of an interview with russian propagandists talk to school to the supporters and radiologist who has the president's ear spitefully sub tweets dr anthony fauci an actual expert on infectious diseases you know there was never this sort of outrage when adam schiff will or other democrat functionaries officials appeared about t. to talk about you know various topics regarding bad demick the economy foreign relations and suddenly you know when this guy a trump of trump follow a close adviser of trump appears and r.t. all hell breaks loose we've got a bear in mind. election and everybody should to squeeze every little bit of a. advantage that they can out of the situation they managed to successfully you know to get him to back down and apologize i recently did an interview with r.t.
1:04 pm
and was on a with their registered foreign agent i regret doing the interview and apologize for a loan whistle to be taken advantage of well especially apologize to the national security community who is working hard to defend us this was a tough interview tough and rough there's no mollycoddling no frills about it these were challenging questions his views as i said very controversial avoid in the he's against the locked out he's against shutdowns economic restrictions he wants the economy wide open he says that the damage from from a shut down economy will be of a bigger than from you know even the economy. so his views were challenged by action without you know that the democrat leaning mainstream media says it's corona virus that could spell the end of the trump presidency and i think there's a gross distortion that is certainly. not. the risks to younger people is extremely low the university of washington study that says there will be 500000 dead by february kind of contradicting the you or
1:05 pm
your lack of correlation between cases and deaths here the situation with covered in the united states is absolutely catastrophic the highest number of infected in the world it enormous enormous damage to the economy the social fabric of the united states and this is something i put together a report on on how these elections aren't so much about the economy and so much about foreign policy there now more than anything else about the pandemic 2020 was going to be trump's year stock markets breaking records the highest employment rate in a decade and he'd finally absolve himself of any ties to russia it was going so well nobody you know except one country can be held accountable for what. up and it was easy america's achilles heel the health care system paid health care where people can be billed hundreds of thousands of dollars for hospitalization and we're
1:06 pm
talking here about a pandemic this was a system wide collapse they couldn't even agree on how to count the dead and he said we're in deep the world is and we need. it was failing from the get go while much of the world hunkered down shut borders went into quarantine the u.s. choose to ignore it the virus is just another flu official said had officials urged old people to potentially sacrifice their lives so the economy could keep running let's get back to work let's get back to living let's be smart about it and those of us who are 70 plus what will take care of ourselves but don't sacrifice the country reality he to whom hod what emergency ward cartoons were lined with beds when hospitals had to pack bodies into freezer trucks because the morgues were full worse and worse and worse until even trump fell ill and his opponents his
1:07 pm
opponents saw the pandemic saw all the mistakes as a miracle but a tremendous opportunity we're just so lucky we have to use it well that is god's gift to the last. instead of uniting america the pandemic divided they will protest against everything for mosques against mosques for shut down again shut down for trump against tribe against china against democrats now the democrats are politicizing the coronavirus you know. they're politicizing it we did one of the great jobs you see house preserved from doing to go home. he's given up. on you couldn't your family couldn't america of course the democrats didn't do any better look at new york
1:08 pm
which ranks 10th in the world by hoover deaths among countries as many as in all of france or in all of spain whatever they now say however better they claim they could have handled this pandemic they didn't good news in the sense that it may not be as serious an illness in the vast majority of people that that's something that we'd want to see we have heard a lot about the coronavirus spread after an emergency room doctor he or she will tell you that it's the common flu that's concerning them if they are positive and they didn't know they were positive they're found by surveillance that means that they weren't that sick the vast majority of people aren't going to get sick from this and this nonsense has continued for the whole year states shutting down and reopening based not on infection statistics but political affiliation a week of arguing between the reds and the blues about stimulus about relief for ordinary folk they even managed to politicize the one thing that will end this the
1:09 pm
vaccine. are already in the final stage. joe budden vaccine fear is putting a lot of such a risk to literally doing it for political reasons it's very foolish if the doctors tell us that we should take it i'll be the 1st in line to take it absolutely but if donald trump tells us i said to take it i'm not taking it is a spectacle of absurdity the clues into the election we got the more ridiculous it became they were arguing not about who to vote for her but about how to do the actual voting democrats people to malin their votes while republicans are in their boots to go vote in person and they're getting tired of that then democrats will. turn out to see if the saw the cover covered covered 10 democratic coverage of the town you know why they're trying to judge everybody out of voting people aren't
1:10 pm
buying it see it. was. a did what could only be described as monumental acts of duplicity and hypocrisy they would warrant each other law to politicize the pad demick the same people that brought you all of these the bungled response the in a name celts and accusations had the gall to say this this is become a political thing and that's sort of crazy that it's become a political thing this is not a time to score political points through baseless commentary it is a time for facts unfortunately it's become very clear the democrats are more interested in keeping the coronavirus as a political issue than actually fighting the virus we all know about the memes about 2020 what a catastrophe it's been and it has but no matter who wins this election no matter how they win they will inherit a country riddled with division and infection
1:11 pm
a population seeking todd of politicians and duplicity the many this is a. today election about picking the better president it's an election about making sure that the other girl loses. well to delve in a bit more we're going to go live now to a political on the strain of all 1st welcome to the program always good to have you well we just heard major outlets have rand rounded on trump's coves as pfizer atlas for daring apparently to speak to r.t. in your opinion what's all the outrage about well i think this is played 1st of all as you professors got atlas knew what kind of media. our t.v. was and is and it was the only possibility for him to get almost half an hour air time to bring up facts about the corona pandemic which will not
1:12 pm
be disseminated by the american media so for him it was an important tool i guess to bring out some important facts that show that the pandemic is not as bad as depicted by the democrats who use the pandemic as their main and it seems almost only 2 to fight president trump in the ongoing election campaign if we look at what he said in the interview he called these lockdowns at the failure he says saying that actually we're killing people both psychologically by doing it what's your take on that and as you just said why do you think the mainstream media is shy about talking about this side of the argument. i think that scott atlas has repeated the argument of the w.h.o. which also has set only recently that the lock down is not the proper way of countering the spread of. an epidemic a decease it will definitely hurt many more people than
1:13 pm
a regular flu would do and scott adams has shown with his fingers quite clearly that the corona pandemic can be compared with the regular flu in terms of let's hallet t. and so i think yes it's really a problem that this pandemic has been politicized has been used as a tool to fight president trump and the mainstream media in the us who have taken the biden side by and large they use the pandemic to show that president trump past failed in other fields they will not have any is the potential crown to fight president trump because he has done a very good job in the past 2 years in a very difficult global environment so i think they're really the point that we need to focus more attention on who are the winners out of the pandemic crisis
1:14 pm
or coarseness what arise from country to country advice from the global to the last national level who are the winners and who are the losers of the one or the other strategy to handle the pandemic but it's obvious that the democrats are on the side of those who say we need a strong lock down we need to crash the economy and of course president trump would lose under such a strategy hath lost a lot because he had tremendous economic figures in the past few years and now economy has crashed and this was predicted at the only way the democrats could win the election that the economy is going to crash and this has been reached through. this is sort of handling the pandemic because lockdown is not the only option how to counter the spreading of such a deceased what we're talking that about the figures now let's make the point that high code numbers are misleading because actually we're not seeing an up foot take
1:15 pm
in deaths as well do you think that people are pasting too much emphasis on case numbers and not on fatalities well i'm not a magical doctor but i'm a scientist and i understand that you should not confuse cases of positive tests with real deceives and this is being made in the world all over and also if you count fatalities you cannot count a person as a covert that person just because he was somehow infected and he died from other reasons so this is of course statistically not correct how the numbers are handled and this is part of the crisis is the basis of the crisis because if you. interpret the numbers correctly you would take different measures i mean we had flu waves in the past which even cost more lives and there was
1:16 pm
not such a panic mode in handling that crisis and now we have really slammed the whole economy and some of the main players like. the world economic forum they all are always talk about a great reset so i mean what is the background of all this because we are dealing with a flu if some but it gets sick by the corona virus it can be a grave that's clear but positive p.c. our test does not mean anything about the person being really in trouble in health wise trouble why they were. i think we can say that no one would want to be a while so many difficult decisions to make either way you feel like you're losing out that was reyna roth 1st to political analyst many thanks for your time and for sharing them on our program and. after months of relative
1:17 pm
normality countries across europe are going back into lockdown following assad and corona virus infections case numbers have doubled in the past 5 weeks to 10000000 and this time around the containment measures are being met with strong public resistance. we've seen that demonstrations taking place across europe against measures that are being put in place to try and stop the spread of covert 19 europe 10 percent of the
1:18 pm
world's population 22 percent roughly of the world's culvert 19 infections here in germany where i'm speaking to you from we've just entered into what's been called lockdown light from monday and dylan merkel said she wants to try and get infections of covert 19 down by around 75 percent in germany and the way that they're going about doing that is trying to keep open as many schools kindergartens and elements of business as possible at the expense of social contact so it's the it is bars restaurants beauty salons james that are paying the price they're the ones that are going to be shutting down in the attempt to do this however it's bringing in these. measures some politicians here in germany were caught breaking them already.
1:19 pm
the focus should now be on protecting the population and as such time when the demanding so much from people politicians need to set an example. for the covert 19 measures that have come into place here in germany mean that bars and restaurants will have to close for normal business they will be allowed to carry out operations that take out well new covert 19 measures are being put in place across europe in france we saw them enter into a really strict new lockdown where pretty much all of the same measures that were

in place in the spring up back in force similar measures taking effect in belgium on saturday night the british prime minister boris johnson announced that the u.k. will reenter a month long lockdown from thursday number of all the country side the introducing new measures are expected to introduce new measures over the coming weeks or one country that has seen a big rise in the number of cases is russia 18665 new confirmed infections of covert 19 on sunday the number of dead in the country has now passed the 28000 mark there are no signs of a new full locked. coming into place in russia however over 60 five's have been told to stay at home as much as possible those in the out risk category we know the virus attacks those who are older much harder than it does the young but when it

comes to things like night life in cities like moscow remains open miss said it is so beyond in the russian with the mayor of the russian capital is said that the q.r. code system that's being used to allow people into bars and nightclubs will continue but it may be under review should cases continue to rise we have from john less than economists polled with think and he believes that some countries need to rethink their priorities when it comes to dealing with this pandemic. as an economist i look at trade offs and to be honest measures taken in most of europe like the lockdowns do seem too much focused on trying to avoid infections at all cost rather than trying to find a balance between debt and other goals such as keeping you going to live in poverty and maintaining individual liberties so i understand it's difficult for any government right now to take the right decisions but it seems too much school i think and towards trying to avoid infections europe we will most likely see civil
1:22 pm
unrest in crete over the next few months because of the lockdowns will be a harsh winter everyone hoped after 1st look now with the relatively mild summer that the worst was over but now we started the new episode off of another lockdown and god knows how long this will take so what will be very challenging for the rest of the year and also early next year for no if you look at the polls in holland most people still support the law and the strict measures but the of course when we see the unemployment rise we see we're bankruptcy's there will probably be a point where people say ok no more and that's something you're really seems trees are forcing the world to increase as long as we we don't find a way to to to live or deal with the with the virus. gunmen have stormed the largest universe can afghanistan killing 9000 people mostly students as well as injuring 22 more a group of militants scented couple university on monday while a book was taking place attended by the a rainy at a basset up they opened fire with assault rifles not led to

a 5 hour gun battle with security forces in which all 3 attackers were killed so far no group has claimed responsibility and the taliban has denied involvement. the french president has infuriated many in the muslim world with his clampdown on radical islam following a wave of terror attacks and it sparked a war of words with turkey. if a spec could be said look i understand and respect that people might be shocked by the caricature was but i will never accept that someone can justify physical violence because of them i will always defend my country's freedom to speak to right think and draw the. so you there we see the countries that teach the world about human rights and democracy take the lead on islamophobia and xenophobia a fight needs to be put up against and to move them sentiment today just as a battle was waged against and to some it isn't in the wake of the holocaust. along

with 13 muslim nations including pakistan and bangladesh have called for a boycott of french products there both been major rallies in those countries and also in yemen with the french flag and satellite now this all comes after the french government shutdown less have made quips and a major mosque following a series of tragic stabbings and shootings. that.
1:25 pm
we are at war against terrorism terrorism can always strike there is no 0 risk and the state is doing its utmost to protect the french people passing the french demand justice we want these people to be deported to their country or legs so we are in a country that has witnessed atrocities great teachers being beheaded priests having less throats slit people are beheaded in a church that's not france and even if we take in all possible security measures you could have been able to come in with a knife to do is deadly deed 0 risk does not exist you know there are i think 40000 churches in france we could put a 1000000 and a half soldiers there but that would not change the problem we counted someone who wants to kill someone else many countries especially in the middle east have taken measures against terrorists for knife attacks. what we discussed this was in conflict with a number of our guests on the program. the president a french president was very right too concerned that we stand for
1:26 pm
a secular state and for the freedom of speech in the secular state of france religion is seen as an opinion we need to address radical islam in france and we are in a war against radical islam and i don't think mr micro is going far enough you can never justify terrorism or violence of any sort so what is the issue with president micro on his war in islam is that is the terminology that he's adopted which is and then murder has in which he tarnishes every single stem and holds muslims responsible for the action of a small minority of terrorists nothing i actually heard from. it is really attacking islam and moderate muslims in france what what i think he's trying to do is say look we have a country here we have laws and regulations that we've built up over centuries and this is how this country works and actually go 3 minutes to have
1:27 pm
a completely different view of how they want life to be and maybe separate into their own type of society. france is probably not for them we need to deport foreigners who preach islam on our grounds we have radical in mom's preaching. against. graham's what you mean by that what i mean by that is by hate speech is against the western way of living against a securely way of living and we have men not shaking women's hands we have most preaching for separate swimming o.-s. we have young girls going being told to put on the veil this is not what we are less than it is certainly a pen. it is a lot is there nothing to take place to stop tonight is to be and talking about you know what you talking about you just sound like as if you're talking from the national fruit and here gender of the far right we as muslims recognize we have a problem there are. people months on me i said this there's
1:28 pm
a problem with people who are involved in terrorism he want to bring people decent people who are against terrorism come together let's do that but just do away with this rhetoric that we're hearing tonight mr shafiq you oughta know that many mosques in france are preaching and saying that the laws of that of the qur'an a superior to the loss of france which will you please no i have no answer for you and i don't know any of you oh that's your father as well but your colleagues in the far right what about the colleagues in the far right not a single word about the far right near nazis far right extremists or which is totally out to appeal for calm brewery that your show is you're just focused on demonology a whole community we all feel the same very strange that need to be dealt with are having to deal with the rise of right wing extremism but at this moment today we're talking about people being beheaded if you churches and basilicas and things of course because france that's the issue that france is having to deal with at this moment let's be consistent let's take on the narrative of terrorists but don't do
1:29 pm
that the expense of innocent muslims around the world we uphold terrorism but we also want the right you know for our voice to be heard in these countries are not faith not to be a talk to the way i was speaking tonight france is a country where all religions can peacefully live together and i live together with millions of muslims i have many muslim friends who are and light and muslims and whom i adore we can exist all together at france under the condition that our traditions and loss of secularism are respected lots of things are looking out the moment thanks for sticking with off have a great day and i had. the
1:30 pm
u.s. has a history of complicated and heated presidential election so what's different this time is that the biggest political events of the last 4 years is happening amid the coronavirus been damaged and the rest of them to the level of civil unrest sparked by the death of george floyd and the rise of the radical groups on both sides of the political spectrum. with great if your. say. these groups attract very angry members who have taken to the streets making protests look like full scale you know what you see here there's only you know what's about to.
