i'm not so happy to europe some e.u. states. vaccination centers. many americans losing their jobs and small business is having closed during the pandemic flu view but some of the biggest u.s. companies paid no federal taxes last year. the hollywood film depicts the story of the man up whatever god had to be the most tortured detainee. the director of the film the prisoners. there was no evidence at all of the still to this day means no evidence against one. there was always pressure cases and

more. life from moscow thanks for joining us today here in our to international i'm daniel hawkins welcome to the program. comes around again in europe but it's not looking too festive germany's introduced strict nighttime curfews in several states while france is by and booze in public spaces to slow the spread of the coronavirus and that comes as some states in the e.u. have accused the partial closure of vaccination centers over the easter weekend. has the details. after an agonizingly slow start to the vaccination campaign it was supposed to be following only picking up speed effects innocently completing this from the fact the nation is a national priority there's no bank holiday there's no weekends vaccination so we must all vaccination centers that are opened across the country fully vaccinated

that cool came as the world health organization criticised europe's vaccine rollout this being fully inadequate vaccines present our best way out of this pandemic however the rollout of these vaccines is an acceptably slow we must speed up the process by ramping up manufacturing reducing barriers to administering vaccines and using every single vial we have in stock now but as europe celebrates the spring holidays the inoculation rate at least in some regions is actually growing thing to a standstill in madrid spain vaccinations have actually been a poultry for 4 days the plan is to allow medical staff to rest but that's in direct opposition to calls from the country's health minister who has demanded that they keep the ruling out the jobs now in germany to some states shutting up shop prompting anger and mockery at the sluggish rollout. some vaccination centers in

germany are going to be shot over the easter weekend but that's ok because it's not like this is an emergency or anything german leaders pummeled by press for this because everyone knows covered 900 takes the holidays off. if it doesn't have holidays we're still recovering from the ludicrous christmas meet up and that usual stereotype of. fish and sea took even more of a battering as chancellor angela merkel flip flopped over the idea of extending the restrictions instead she's. a bit of rest. so what does this mean for the next few days it means 1st and foremost that it should be a quiet easter one in a small circle with a very reduced context also known as you to refrain from all non urgent travel and that we all consist in the fall all the rules herein francaise

a new nation wide lockdown begins many are getting ready to abscond with the city's a sort of weekend truce is being allowed for people to get away for the break but the 2 came with this warning either you go for weeks or you do not go but the boy is hoping to take advantage of the noise so whether with a tourist quencher where drinking alcohol outside in public spaces or even the parks has become the latest pope are no longer allowed tighter controls will also be in place with authorities clamping down on groups of more than 6 measures put in place as france struggles to get a grip on rising infection rates for many in europe it was hoped that this weekend would be a bit of a break from the monotony of prove it instead the virus continues to be the biggest party pooper in. seoul if you can ski r.t.

harris. in the impoverished prison suburb of st sent doctors a struggling to find enough intensive care beds for patients. we are being overwhelmed with cases serious covert cases our intensive care unit is almost full the flow of patients increases every day there are more covert positive tests negative the situation is grave we're seeing sundanese the poorest region in mainland france and has about 800 coronavirus cases per 100000 people that's more than twice the national average there are also been reports that teachers are walking out due to the high number of infections in schools. on and he locked out on a gathering in a park in the belgian capital was dispersed by mounted police. water cannon were also at least 3 put a damper on the event while riot officers broke up groups of stragglers in the name

of social distancing a few days ago thousands in brussels turned out for what was billed as an anti lockdown concerts to get itself out to be an april fools day prank. i mean what a prominent psychiatrist has been detained in serbia for allegedly supporting anti vaccine propaganda and your honest look at it also leaves a small far right parties one of several people being questioned in a government crackdown officials accuse them of creating fear and panic and putting lives at risk all the perpetrators of criminal acts must be dealt with especially when they threaten public health serbia has the 3rd highest vaccination rate in europe with more than 2300000 citizens receiving at least a 1st shot other european countries are trying to pick up the pace with italy becoming the 1st to introduce compulsory jobs for health workers the u.k. too has introduced mandatory jobs but so far only for care home staff earlier my

colleague discuss the issues raised by europe's vaccination rolled out with a panel of guests. well when we talk about the mandate for the common 1000 vaccine i think we need to look into a broader perspective the 1st thing is that a lot of the vaccine is safe secondly the gravity of the situation and terribly if anything else is working and if will put all of these 3 things together for me i think it is really important and i think it is a cloud from a community responsibility that this vaccine would be a mandate for everybody who had the possibility to pick up an fanie if money tree just for health workers is going to save the lives of vulnerable people it's the right thing to do business it no i don't agree mostly phosphorescence who are and or i think there will be a number who traces are going to be going to try stross who are really discriminates against softening in the lorry which is being described we have to her mind that it's just the vulnerable who are politically are flexing kind

of no i would say even under the facts of the month of the vast majority of the population actually do not need this fascination you know how to workers are actually sent home if they are symptomatic with any infection and it's not discrimination and if they refuse to take back scenes who have because of police not taking taxi ins. we've let them work with a little patience because actually an oscar are vulnerable is not discrimination is just protecting your patients that you work with and talking about the mandate off of them but the vaccine i think if we talk about any individual person there might be still in fact after vaccination or can still transmit the infection but if this were actually is applied on a broader community then the transmission would certainly be stopped and we haven't witnessed this one in israel so in community level the impact of the vaccine is a lot more than what you see an individual level and 20 from what we know in the past that they're helping us examples of on t.v.

being blamed for the resurgence of preventable diseases measles being one such example considering where in the middle of a pandemic does does more need to be done to counter the more extreme versions of of these protesters well of course repeat what exactly are the root servers here are obvious to produce. are not purchased to debate the issue of the selling something out ram goes through proved wrong what we really eat is who to be given to go through promotions great tool decisions are probably true nancy but it seems. has been revealed that over 50 big american companies including fedex and nika managed to dodge paying any federal corporate taxes in the last fiscal year that's a midwife for a job losses blamed on a pandemic artie's kind of more potent except how the u.s.

appears to favor the wealthy. paycheck to paycheck that's how more than half of been living especially since the pandemic and they're also paying taxes but what would those americans say when they found out that $55.00 of the largest corporations in the united states paid no taxes last year that includes fedex and nike after deduction exemptions they ended up paying net 0 but they were supposed to pay $8500000000.00 quite a big difference sounds like a joke especially for america's small businesses that have been devastated by the pandemic and still had to pay the rent after earning nothing and surprisingly they now might be hit again now that biden is planning to raise personal income taxes that hit 95 percent of small businesses like a hurricane a strange decision it is letting big corporations off the hook while burying small business owners even deeper i do not think it's the right time especially that

we're in a pandemic and small businesses and we've done enough to to survive this pandemic and i mean it's a troubling time for everyone now and then for people to tax small business owners who are in a struggling be perfect finding creative ways to stay in business over the last 40 years that is roughly since 1080 there has been a systematic redistribution of wealth and income from the poorer and the middle class to those at the very top there are men be more lobbyists in washington then there are senators and congressmen and women you know the words of the johnnie of people working on legislation in the capital of washington d.c. are paid agents of large corporations so you see that the control of the big businesses by giving donations to

a candidate and to parties and by paying these armies and not be used. they have the influence to make sure that the tax system favors that but don't go rushing to say the world is unfair biden is also promising a tax increase on the very rich i have nothing against millionaires and billionaires but here's the deal we're going to raise the corporate tax it was 35 percent which is too high we all agreed 5 years ago it should go down to 20 percent . with the reduced to 21 percent raise it back to up to 20 percent ironically though is there really any point in doing this when companies are already failing to pay the current rate even when taxes on the rich were much higher 18 of america's top $258.00 corporations still managed to pay only some of it seems like loopholes are quite friendly to the rich and powerful all tax problem a bit of the theory because behind it the reality is that the bigger the

corporation the easier it is for them to pay for the lawyers the accountants the economists like me who will help them escape taxation the reality is that around the world today large corporations have the ability to move their profits to wherever the tax rate is the lowest so they don't have to pay higher rates of taxation if the united states has tax rates higher than other countries they'll move their profits to other countries some observers say that the biden planned attacks corporations is just a farce and they don't really have any intention of making them pay however small businesses will continue to struggle and r.t. new york. the story of the detainee whose one is regarded as the most tortured a man in guantanamo bay is that pictured in the hollywood film them all russian in today's episode of going underground russian returns he speaks the director of the

movie and the lawyer of old slahi who was held in a notorious prison for 14 years without charge arrested in more shown up by u.s. forces following the 911 attacks with the slaw he was accused of being an al qaeda member the film is based on his diary published in january 25th in which exposed the horrors of life in the detention center and the full interview can be watched on r.t. throughout the day but in the meantime here's a quick teaser. you want to represent the head recruiter for 911 constitution doesn't have an asterix yet. they kidnap me from my home prop me here over the back of my head and chains around my body. they seem to be a lot of pressure going to class pressure i don't know for you to drop the case all through well that there is always pressure against cases in more in guantanamo or cases involving alleged terrorists and we did make that point when joni

talks about that she's taking the words right out of an op ed i did in 2010 where i said i was a terrorist lawyer and proud of it people thought whatever that is saying about how bad it was they were grounds for the us authorities to. lock him up my understanding from talking to nancy talking to your cat shoes the letter the prosecution lawyer for the government in america that everybody else is that there are playing to the stories there were new grounds for having him there there were suspicions and he was still to associate with some people who may have done some bad things but there was no evidence at all in the still to this day remains no evidence at all against clinton he was an innocent man who was locked up for more than 14 years and there were many many other people in one time in the same situation as he even today the obama put him back in jail after he wins that

doesn't happen in an innocent man narrative plot to a film that's a terrible twist on the end of the movie and we shouldn't really be giving it away it's actually the part that more people have said to me oh my dogs because you've been through this incredible and sometimes harrowing journey and you think you're coming out the other side because there's been this courtroom victory. and then the ravi schooled for monday you and you get a small sense of what it must have been like to be a mum a day or nancy i think some people. would like to see obama the same today i'm completely i'm still not from any responsibility that you just knew getting away from the fact that he needed to continue to lead the policies of history just this . how did that feel after winning and then as for mamma do today i understand he cannot easily travel is a kind of prisoner today well he is a kind of prisoner you didn't get a passport for 3 years after he got out that was the deal the us made with

mauritania they wouldn't give him a passport and now he has not been able to get a visa so far to 2 european only got a visa to south africa we are hoping he and his american wife and baby can someday find a country that will give to give him citizenship and allow them to allow him to travel he's a free man he should be allowed to travel. still ahead the islamic terror group has had control of a key town in mozambique for over a week the international community seems a little more on that off of the break. the wall street frauds going all the way back to the twenty's they're not different they're repackaged rebranded and sold again it's the same wind in

a bottle so the smack fraud is just a variation on the dot com fraud which is a variation of the mortgage sub crime fraud thing we will fraud the g.d.p. would be it would be negative 20 percent. the world is driven by dreamers shaped by phone person or those with. no deers thinks. we should ask.

welcome back to the program just under 3 months off with a shock see you still the u.s. capitol call rubbing out saw the building as an f.t.c. reeling with one police officer dead and the other in the hospital with security in washington has been ratcheted up again in the wake of the attack the suspect who was shot dead office stuffing out of his vehicle and brandishing a knife the officer who died in the attack has been identified as william evans a capitol policeman of 18 years and president joe biden has sent this heartfelt condolences to the officers family former pentagon analyst to michael maloof says the latest incident will result in an even larger security presence in washington d.c. well into the future. the initial concern was this could have been a decoys and immediately the rest of the capitol one under further lockdown and

also has they've also done the same thing for government buildings just in case this might have been a decoys but so far nothing else has happened it could have been just a test if people who had been tensions of it in the capitol will look upon this as a lesson learned what to do or what not to do and how to go about this but i think that this latest episode just reinforces especially if it was done by a lone a lone wolf that the they're going to have to maintain their their. security presence and actually beefed up security because of the sensitivities of what's going on in the in the capitol area especially on capitol hill and the vulnerability of congressmen and senators are going to maintain security for an indefinite period of time. mozambique is in the grip of terror with the islamic state group holding on to control of a key town it sees there for over a week now this isn't the dozens of victims a mass exodus and the interruption of

a french energy project in the area the international community is doing little to help you on making statements as suggesting that africa is not a priority for major powers. reports. i'm here in downtown johannesburg both of heading to mozambique leaf from last week insurgents affiliated with islamic state launched a raid on the northernmost big town of palma ransacking buildings and murdering a beheading civilians.

the latest attack is the biggest escalation by islamist rebels who have been waiting villages and towns in northern mozambique for the past 4 years leaving hundreds of thousands of people displaced and at least 2000 dead half of them civilians according to the united nations the model that we had at the hotel which was besieged by militants after 4 days without eating we decided to leave and escape into the forest but some of my white colleagues lost their lives again i get it for she i can't go back to palma i don't believe there will be peace there that we'll be able to leave there the way we used to. go not people were killed on the beach where i was some minister on the way but others stayed and militants took women boys and children with them. we heard gunshots so there was nothing else to do than flee into the woods and we spent 7 days there without anything to eat there were many children and no food. mostly because the hub of the

gas industry with billions of dollars following the offshore just travel we want to be the largest natural gas fields in africa francisco told which paid for the multi-billion dollar gas project in the area earlier the same didn't work because of rebel attacks this was not the 1st time that we've seen one islam state attacking was on big in fact they have actually taken control of. the port which is a key port for region i treat in the region so. presence in mozambique not longer. it is huge it is destructive and it is dangerous i don't really believe that. we've known this is going to happen and that has the word has the backing definitely of countries from from up north east and i think this is a it's a worldwide problem i think it's something that the u.n.

will have to step into and i think it's something that the countries of the u.n. will have to assist in and this is something that should have been done in this very little bit more than 2 years ago. but the response so for being there in a region that has become the latest frontline in the global war being waged by militant islamist mozambique is turning into yet another african hotspot with world powers remaining mostly silent policy r.t. . stop africa. this week your kansas became the 1st u.s. state of possibile making it illegal for doctors to provide gender affirming health care to transgender minors civil rights activists were quick to slam the law as unconstitutional and violating human rights to poke takes a closer look. the all knowing corporations and celebrities are at it again spreading their wisdom to us lowly humans who just don't understand anything at all

wisdom of the day the new arkansas law preventing minors from getting gender reassignment surgery is practically murder and is killing children our consist legislators similarly have nothing better to do during a global pandemic and economic meltdown than to process hateful discriminatory laws deny health care to people trance kids are under attack across the country arkansas is just ban them from accessing health care this is tend to madd to my kids who will turn us who they are it's our job to support them not demonize or harm them don't bother looking any of this up though because these people who are saying this have definitely done their research they've weighed the pros and the cons of this bill and have come to the undeniable conclusion that this bill is really bad just retreat spread the message and enjoy the feeling of moral superiority but if for some reason you decide to look past that the veil of vacuous virtue signaling

you might discover that there's a bit more to the issue see what these people mean by health care is the practice of injecting confused kids with a bunch of hormones and irreversibly mutilating their bodies because you know that's apparently a basic human right and 12 year old kids definitely know what they want to do with their life and if they want to whole new body well who's to stop them and the people who will be calling that aren't necessarily the ones who have gone through the treatments or lives with the consequences no they're the wall internet crowd who is using a complex issue to further their agenda and show everybody just how virtuous and compassionate they are the people who actually did get their gender changed with little to no questions asked haven't found themselves to be any. happier while others are suing the clinics that encourage them as teenagers to change their

gender basically equating it's a child abuse and despite all the propaganda about how wonderful it is to receive hormone injections actual research studies have shown that most people with gender dysphoria see no improvement to their mental state after the transition and suicide rates among trance people which are unfortunately very high don't seem to be affected at all by any of the procedures so what's the solution while politicizing virtue signaling and mutilating kids don't seem to be working that well gender dysphoria is a disorder and should be studied and treated as such not glorified or used for clout you don't tell a person who believes that he's napoleon that he is an actual french general y. well because sooner or later reality will come crashing around him and when that happens they will be left alone confused abused probably suicidal and that's

exactly the path that these kids are being pushed on by these always volkan benevolent corporations and celebrities mix the cause a reporter examine signs of a buckling global economy and for u.k. views it's black in the us a solid auto comment to show of the seem annoyed i can offer now with the latest headlines join us again that. in the 1920 s. and thirty's several 100 african-americans moved to the soviet union and many of their descendants still live in russia. or going at the coast because they know no rush for us though up most of us it got worse when things on their way. back

home but i can merican suffered from racism and a complete lack of prospects. is that lump us mud the real. one by elsa store but by doing. so they decided to leave everything behind and start a new life in a country about which they knew almost nothing at all and some of the american reared groups who were too through during the night. found great crowds. to moulay a golf you know going to go you. know almost a 100 years later the history is repeating itself my great grandfather george time went through russia. probable worst try to go anywhere why not me. why don't i come here.

max kaiser this is the kaiser report well you know the world can't be too messed up if the farmers in france are protesting and dumping truckloads of manure on government buildings you know all right there's in the world in other news stacey of course the french farmers dumping manure in front of government buildings a something i do recall from the early days of kaiser before in the early days of the last global financial crisis so it could be a sign that everything is about to go boom they're a leading indicator remember we talked about the price signals that have been destroyed by intervention from the commanding controllers but this is a signal they cannot stop and that's the friend.
