saw it in the way it did when i bought in my name and here are the. headlines this hour america appeals against britain's decision not to extradite you from the sands of the united states despite growing calls for president biden to drop the case against the wiki leaks founder also to come washington has sold more than a 1000000 barrels of oil seized from the rain and is raising questions about who actually gets the money i mean new york governor's ministration comes increasing pressure over massive under-reporting your own death during the pandemic we speak to the daughter of a victim. the sad part is that they are seniors and everything that the what's going on with that death toll to their political advantage.
11:01 am
oh there she is gone 7 pm here in moscow you're watching us international the u.s. has filed an appeal against a british court decision not to extradite jews in the sunshine us to spite the petition sent the u.s. justice department demanding that the case is dropped altogether signatories include rights groups such as misty international. friends of mr assange threatens press freedom because much of the conduct described in the indictment is conducted jan the single routinely and they must engage in in order to do the work the public needs them to do in our view such a precedent in this case could effectively criminalize common journalistic practices. well last month in a ruling that surprised many a british judge blocked a songes extradition over concerns for his mental health nevertheless days later he was still denied bail and media freedom grew through also dismayed as the judge

largely supported america's case against the whistleblower america has indicted him on 17 counts of spying and one of conspiracy to hack a government computer he faces up to 175 years in prison if found guilty sandy exposed what some have characterized as u.s. war crimes whistleblower and former cia analyst john kiriakou told us convicting a sanch would pose a threat to journalism. you know this is not unusual actually even in my own case amnesty international and the american civil liberties union asked the obama administration to drop the case on me and they would even discuss it they don't want to look weak and at the same time they really don't have respect for the wishes of these human rights groups and civil liberties groups i agree that the justice department does not think this is about press freedom i think it is about press freedom but the justice department refuses to acknowledge that julian assange is a journalist were a publisher but i think the real disappointment here and the real danger here is
11:03 am
the fact that mainstream journalists in the mainstream media especially organizations like the new york times the washington post the wall street journal have not come out in support of julian assigns that's where the danger is because if julian assange is convicted then any reporter in america doing his or her job is in danger of being charged with espionage for publishing information that is embarrassing to the u.s. government. the united states has sold more than a 1000000 barrels of oil that was seized from iranian tankers last year as part of washington's sanctions program and another captured vessel is currently on its way to a u.s. port well the sages have become standard practice for the u.s. as punishment that iran's alleged nuclear plans washington claims all income generated will go to his fund for victims of state sponsored terrorism but is that
11:04 am
really the case his don't court. even idea for a side hustle put sanctions on a country pirate its oil exports and sell it that's what the u.s. did with a 1000000 barrels of iranian oil seized under its sanction regime last year and suffice it to say there were some handsome profits to be made while the value of the seized fuel has not been announced compared to european gasoline prices the sale could. way to tens of millions of dollars while washington says the revenue will be used for the greater good the u.s. victims of state sponsored terrorism fund cording to its website victims are embassy workers who were held hostage in iran in 1989 and anyone who won a lawsuit against those who the u.s. considers state sponsors of terror but who exactly are these people has anyone ever seen them we're talking about tens of millions of dollars here don't worry until we find out who gets the money washington says it will be safely in the hands of government agencies and as for what effect this all has on iran the world's 4th
11:05 am
largest oil reservoir taran claims it's not flinching in the face of u.s. sanctions. the enemy and trump one address to perish and our experts to reach the room we set the highest record of exports in the history of the will industry during the embargo period still the country is fighting tooth and nail to get those sanctions lifted and revive the iran nuclear deal which the trumpet ministration pulled out of in 2018 biden though seems no more willing to cooperate than his predecessor will the us lift sanctions 1st in order to get iran back to the negotiating table. now the international court of justice is claiming it has jurisdiction over iran challenging u.s. sanctions the same ones that were imposed under former president donald trump but washington is telling the court to mind its own business and why not for he who controls the seas it's a never ending feast of someone else's oil and mountains of profit. today with
11:06 am
international oil economist octomom desalinate to tell us that. they sanctioned undermine america's status. well that's true it's. imperial sanctions there's a general cerebellar see essentials. it has nothing on terror national know the authority to know that. you is rich and generous with israel of this sort of wisdom as. other government run it well and of course that will happen yes coalition with the united states and. the right. it is seeing you hear of the certainly something which itself the in the response i'm going to serve but i think it is ill suited for. the response agreement is

larry sauced. lawmakers are demanding an investigation after leak message jested that a top aide to the new york governor admitted withholding the correct figures on cave deaths in care homes basically were froze because then we were in the position where we were unsure if what we were going to give to the department of justice was going to be used against us while we weren't sure if there was going to be an investigation or the scandal escalated 2 weeks ago when the new york attorney general's report accused the cuomo administration of undercounting coby deaths in nursing homes by some 50 percent state health department then revealed nearly 4000 previously unreported victims who had later died in hospital or at another facility we got reaction from the us who lost her mother so you can read in a new york. you know the sad part is that they used our seniors and everything that
11:08 am
they it was going on with death that death toll to their political advantage they were covering up for in order to remain in power and that's that's a travesty that they did that not only to seniors but their loved ones when we've been calling from mons for answers electron ability and all we we've been met with insults and with stonewalling so we're happy that this is starting to come out and we just believe this is the tip of the dice. when a senior quote my advisor did promise an investigation but did play into the trump of ministration for what it presented as a politically motivated smear campaign given serious again says and i'm biased pro-business sensual to reveal the truth the reality is that we needed an independent investigation with subpoena power to be able to get to the communications that were happening before the election if they're going to play political football with our seniors and with this information then we're still not
11:09 am
hopeful that they'll be held accountable governor cuomo just press conferences has said who cares where the seniors died we care we continue to say that we care where they died we care where they died and we hear how they died. how elsewhere senior lawyers in belgium have written and i open letter warning that the government's covert restrictions there are writing the normal because they failed to get parliamentary approval 1st we spoke to one of the signatories. what we have criticised is the fact that the coverage measures in belgium have been to create ministerial decree we think the restrictions on fundamental liberties shouldn't be decided. by the law an active part of that is the proper way to deal with that sort of measures a restriction still in place to include a nighttime curfew across the country bars restaurants remain shut while even
11:10 am
visits to the homes of family and friends a band citizens must also go shopping alone and work from home whenever possible in their letter the lawyers added that the lack of political legitimacy gives perfect grounds for public unrest something the country has repeatedly saying through the lockdown the government insists it will put a pandemic lot in parliament however the lawyer who spoke to did say that that should have been done a long time ago. we know one year from the start of the pandemic we think as a government sufficient time to put in place a new piece of legislation that could replace the urgent ones and the provisional votes that could be taken in march so it is it is sad to see that this house has not happened we lived under the rule of law and we want the rule of law to prevail in all circumstances also also in particularly difficult situations like the crisis
11:11 am
we're going to now that is what i'm concerned. back to paris police officers are set to be charged over violence at a yellow vests protest back in $2191.00 is believed to have fired the stun grenade that left activist jerome rodrigo's blind in one eye he told us his injury there was just the start of a government led attack. it up and it's i joined the political opposition at least in relation to mark rowlands policies considering what is happening in many countries it is obvious that they are trying to silence me it is not only about a bullet or a grenade as a result of which i lost an eye on january 26th and 2019 but also about everything that followed the pressure i was subjected to subsequent problems accusations that were brought forward against me from the government or certain ministers and assembly members. well you might find these pictures disturbing because they do capture the moment just after ford regress was hit in the eye thousands were
11:12 am
11:13 am
or 2 years ago the u.n. human rights commission did call for a probe into the possible use of excessive force by french police during the protests however the government rejected those accusations the president macron calling them unacceptable although then prime minister headed philippe did admit that no one force meant had made mistakes in handling the rallies drummer freakiest again though says that the lack of action from authorities is even worse than the police brutality. if you did you you know when officials talk about you as mentally retarded on live television you also need to be able to deal with that sense that has lasted 2 years and of course there is no way i can fight back against that the pressure that these people the government the state put on me personally and on my family cost me much more harm than the police who gallops my out. here watching
11:14 am
r.t. still had the sa britain's health services under fire for adopting need gender neutral language rooms during the pandemic we'll have a look at what the fuss is about but in a couple of minutes. join me every thursday on the alex i'm unsure when i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. we'll get the 3 headed vigilante coming our way you got the bond vigilantes are coming back they're stranded drug dealers shorting bonds now it means days she is going to try to force bond collapse like we saw in 1993 so the bond vigilantes back big he's talking about gold then so are others just
11:15 am
a golden jewel auntie's and the big coin vigilantes i've been here since 22009. and they're growing exponentially now and the price of course as it goes under a trillion in this year 2021 it'll be worth more than 4 trillion so those are the 3 headed vigilantes that are now coming for the dollar the dollar is just sitting ducks. oh yeah now the case national health service faces condemnation from many sides at the moment over its new gender neutral language requirements or some do think the pandemic is hardly the time for a huge politically correct over the whole even those meant to benefit such as trans groups are also critical of the timing with more saskatoon. do you think the
11:16 am
national health service in a country in lockdown in the middle of a you raging pandemic would have other things to do than go on a rampage of political correctness but no you'd be wrong in fact here's a list of the new lingo you need to brush up on. and i just trust has come up with a roadmap to increase of it and apparently this is just the start fast off so many revelations so tons out that all those people since the very beginning of time who thought they had breasts the were no mark this wrong man could easily have been doing the midnight chest feeding all these years out of the rubble to be
11:17 am
a row way ahead of his time but irony of ironies this trans friendly policy didn't even win over all the people it specifically set out to include this is an absolutely classic case of a public sector institution trying to be woke and succeeding only in 1000 life much harder for the very people on whose behalf and presumes to speak of the 34000000 in the u.k. who identify as one well they were not impressed excuse me housing racing women's words to describe their lives experience anything other than exclusive i breastfed my children with milk from my breast not from my chest my test contains my heart and lungs a concious house seen breastfeeding affronts anyone enough of removing women women exist we menstruates give birth and have breasts can we keep our terminology for sun this was just the cherry on top of the gender fluid biology question in cake
11:18 am

cancelled twice any. place book is being compared to big brother after admitting it shared private data of people thought to be involved in the u.s. capital riots the social media giant is close to did cooperate with law enforcement to hand over messages from those who allegedly broke into the seat of government last month we were monitoring this out in real time and made appropriate referrals to law enforcement this includes helping them identify people who posted photos of themselves from the scene even after the attack was over we're continuing to share more information with law enforcement in response to valid legal requests as they continue their investigation number one snitch in america big brother is facebook surreal farce. the storming of the capitol building has already seen a reported 221 people charged and facing up to 20 years in jail democratic party officials and media calling the offenders domestic terrorists the i is identifying
11:20 am
suspects with the help of more than $200000.00 photos and videos mostly from online social networks but that's not going without consequence though facebook because the tech giant has now lost more than $30000000000.00 in market value with investors spooked by the platforms apparent coziness with the f.b.i. analyst and commentator resumes and warns that innocent people too could have been caught up in the sweep a lot of people don't realize that being a lot of your decision think your date is wide open the other thing is that. facebook changes your policy. what may have been acceptable. 6 months ago may not today and when they may come back and go oh you did this and that's against our policy so we're banning most people i would say hundreds of thousands of people really did nothing illegal whatsoever there you had
11:21 am
a you had some absolutely but but the majority of people in fact some people that are being turned on and turned over investigator were not in the capitol they were perhaps on the capitol grounds but that completely equally well until recently completely legal and open and public space so there was really no violation of any type of war whatsoever but we kind of twisted that and interpreted differently facebook seems to be and i would gather other social media platforms are turning over extensive amount of information and probably you've probably got a lot of business probably review of a lot of c.c.t.v. drone footage years or other types of video information is probably being looked at as well. in other news tonight 38 people have been confirmed dead after himalayan cough and destroyed a dam causing devastating floods that have all left almost 200 people missing this
