3:01 pm
hello good to have you with us saturday evening and here in moscow my name's colin bray here's what we're across for you this weekend declassified u.s. military files have revealed that islamic states current terrorist in chief previously spent time in american military custody in iraq and while there he apparently revealed crucial secrets on jihadi activities as the story. when islamic state was running rampant all over northern iraq a few years ago the indigenous u.c.d. community was bearing the brunt of the jihadi atrocities perhaps more than anyone else. to believe you when you go. to war with you.
3:02 pm
now some kind of senior figure within eisel ranks must of been behind all this right one of the accused is current islamic state leader. and guess what the release documents reveal the man was once a prisoner of the u.s. military and provided the pentagon with extensive intelligence before being let go and several reports. u.s. forces are the best time of day to find islamic state in iraq members in different locations around mosul for example describing a specific cafe well prince of smith's daily. detainees seems to be more cohen for us if with every session what else do we learn from the declassified reports was an absolutely precious asset for the interrogators he revealed the identities of terrorist leaders provided map like directions on how to find them the man even
3:03 pm
pointed out the phone numbers of 19 jihadi officials as well 1 as pay they got for their jobs so to say the current head of eisel once bitrate the group step he commander to american interrogators to then take his place this led to a u.s. military op in which the 2nd in command of the islamic state pretty obsessor group was killed in 2008 think guantanamo think of plenty of other individuals imprisoned by uncle sam you can't help wondering how the hell malo walked free the point it happened at is unclear too but the last interrogation reports mentioning him are dated july 2008 so what's with the release was it a stupid accident a major system full or maybe someone thought the guy would never really cause trouble well then the story of eisel is now dead former boss. dotty should ring
3:04 pm
a bell the fact 'd that al baghdadi got his start in an american prison isn't unique there are many people including this use this current isis leader of the american prisons and iraq is described by many as an incubator for an incubator for isis you know she's not a war in the. area there were hundreds of prisoners thousands of prisoners life many of whom cooperated all who were eventually released i think is part and parcel of the lack of strategic focus that is plagued the united states in terms of its interactions in the middle east since the. very bad decision to. iraq back in 2003 we haven't made a good decision since then all malala turned out to be the media its successor of al but dottie after he was eliminated in a u.s. raid in syria and $29.00 thing today washington has
3:05 pm
a bounty of $10000000.00 on all malas head well after all it's the us that one spearheaded the war on terror and remains the most successful force in ridding the world of the evil or maybe something has gone wrong with how it's done we've killed isis members by the 10s of thousands if not hundreds of thousands the same without ita and yet they exist because killing people is not destroying the ideology the ideology is sustained by the continued american presence in the middle east this this unlawful presence in iraq in syria and elsewhere so you know until which time we can diffuse that which motivates these people to support isis isis was always exist no matter who is in charge and how many of their leaders we kill i mean it's a vicious cycle the the american presence in the middle east creates isis and the
3:06 pm
continued struggle against isis is used to justify the continued presence of the american military in the middle east which creates isis and it's a circle that goes on and on and on it will never end until we get out of the middle east. president biden's about to appoint a special envoy with the sole topic of killing off the construction of north stream to a major gas pipeline linking russia to europe but a member of the german parliament foreign affairs committee believes those efforts a doomed to failure have been talking to. a party of war mongers has come to power in the us this will aggravate the problem on the european continent this fits into biden's concept but we have no other choice the project has been approved by all the authorities and it is fully financed if we don't finish it for whatever reason we will lose billions of euros we will also not be able to guarantee our energy security the project will be finished but it's not clear what compromises will have to be made i know that the resistance is also commercial
3:07 pm
because the us wants the liquefied natural gas market for itself and wants to supply liquefied natural gas to europe even though american liquefied natural gas is much more expensive and environmentally unacceptable it is to see an expensive bill that does not bother our partners the u.s. has already doubled the project a bad deal for europe with the secretary of state ready to sanction any german firms involved in the project the russian foreign ministry says washington not to put illegal obstacles in the way of the project and to abide by international law all the things that standing up the u.s. pressures become a vital matter for german sovereignty. the dependence on the us is enormous it is always claimed that we are becoming dependent on russia to gas imports but that is only one percent of our dependence on the us biden can do anything he wants with this government which is completely under the influence of the us they have nothing to fear but if it changes and if we trade more with russia it would be the best
3:08 pm
thing we could do if we can't do that or we don't do it russia will link up with china and then we will be crushed between the 2 blocs we have only one way out of this mess we have to communicate with russia and end the sanctions we must build a free economic zone from the eyes of us thought to lisbon only then can we speak on an equal footing with everyone else on a political and economic level at the moment we are not sovereign only if you say it but everyone knows that the us has a dilemma if they continue this way europe will shake them off and deal with russia differently. now as we gear up for monday's historic out of verse 3 of the 1st to human space flight out he's got special coverage for you because of course as the international space station welcomes a new 3 man crew who saw his space ship docked on friday here's the bottom of the thunder towards the heavens from the baikonur cosmodrome in kazakhstan. do russians like novitsky feel that the brawl of balls in american vanda have nasa
3:09 pm
and i will board the orbiter there remain there until at least october as part of expedition 65 joining the 7 other members working up there the latest launch came ahead of the 60th anniversary of cosmonaut yuri gagarin's as sturrock flight on april the 12th 961 to become the 1st human in space. for 2 decades now humans have had a constant presence in orbit traveling at 27000 kilometers per hour on the international space station braving radiation and high velocity space junk saskia taylor's been causing astronauts and cosmonauts including russia's only woman space pilot on the joys and challenges of life in 0 gravity. i went to baikonur in 2019 i was standing there 2 kilometers from the launch pad but even there was so nervous and sweat and so much i can't even imagine what you feel when you're right there waiting for the launch. actually we feel pretty calm because i've been
3:10 pm
preparing for ages and finally it's the moment i've been waiting for for so long it is like waiting for a birthday cake and here you get your piece of the cake a rocket launch and you get to do what you've prepared for for years i thought because one of them sneaks what kind of dreams do have while in space and if you cry on the i assess where do the tears float. do you watch the movie gravity which is a it's visually beautiful but it's factually terrible they have the actress sandra bullock cry and her tears come squirting out of her eyes and and fly across the spaceship and i'm thinking when i cry on earth my tears don't come squirting out of my eyes and fly across the room it's ridiculous. your tears just form and stay on your eyeball like like i don't know jelly or something where they did just stay there permanently in space your tears don't fall. right now you are the only
3:11 pm
woman in the russian team how many years has it been that this is not the 1st woman since 2016 not a woman hater is there and ross cost was neutral that no of course not all women always participate in the selection process and there are women who almost make it almost to the end and usually does medical conditions are not given them a chance to complete i have a question of all the time how did understand when is the day and when is the night where the floor is and where the silliness. picone keep track of the summer we see 16 sunrises and sunsets so we check our watches to see if it is day or night. what excuse can you use of you're late for work here on earth we always say i'm in a traffic jam but if you're late for work at the station what would you say i was just looking up at the areas and i just drifted away in my mind when you're living on board the space station there is not just mr and control there in correlative
3:12 pm
just on the outskirts of moscow at super but there's also mission control in houston and in montreal and in munich and in tokyo and all of those mission controls are telling you what to do and they put it on this computer screen and this red line is moving across your life and it tells you what you're doing every 5 minutes for the whole 6 months that you're on the space station but i think the standard excuse of there is there are 6 people and only 2 bathrooms so that's probably the best excuse we have above all a thought has ever happened that while you are as the eyes sas people come there and bring you something that you're really the wanted from earth could you assess your favor to bring you something that was after that but we can ask people to bring something and the guys will do if the mission control allows them but small things because there is a strict list of things that can be brought in and it is impossible to take something secret place of the space station yes we thought what about the crumbs if
3:13 pm
you've been eaten some dried do crumbs fly all over the place they get the oh clear legends about crumbs they can cause some problems but actually they are sucked up by the filters very fast this basically is deals based bread has been made this small our american colleagues even call it barbie bread like the bread for barbie bread that specifically was made so tiny to be eaten in one bite and avoid the crumbs says it. almost goes also pushing ahead with groundbreaking innovations to improve understanding of the moon done of the scientists behind a new lunar lander. this warehouse holds the next big thing of the russian space exploration program if it had a p.r. slogan it probably be back to the future because by you this it's called moon 25 russia aims to return to the earth's only proper natural satellite well the moon building up on the legacy and the lunar program of the soviet union at the bus of
3:14 pm
the main difference is luna $25.00 was created with modern technology standards of course the machines that flew in the previous century were big and bulky and since space is an expensive pleasure all the engineering and development of space technologies are aimed at minimizing mass there for it old luna used big and heavy rockets heavy class loads rickles for our projects we shifted to medium close launch vehicles which are cheaper like sawyer's or still used to and of course the approaches to construction used for designing the machines are in line with the modern technology. this is what's left of when you 4 or moon 24 the direct predecessor of the probe that is set to fly to the moon this fall the 2 are decades apart and this 1 may not
3:15 pm
look like much of a rule the descend hasn't been easy for it but it was the last time the soviet union got lunar samples in a container exactly like this one. the assembly here barely stops after all moon $25.00 is set to fly into space on the 1st of october this year already and it's going to do something that. has never been done before is going to land on the south paul of the moon why is it so important because scientists are expecting to find ice in the craters there and hence water possibly the most precious resource overall for humanity out there in space this manipulator will be grabbing samples and putting it into a compartment above it that's where the equipment installed on this machine will be
3:16 pm
heating it up and analyzing it and beaming results back to earth and potentially paving the way for the 1st lunar base because that's what russia has its sights on . from moon bases to the search for life on mars russian space arrises are still expanding 60 years on from that 1st flight into the unknown and throughout monday we're going to be bringing you some special coverage about anniversary right here on alt. the world is driven by. one person.
3:17 pm
who dares thinks. we dare to ask. him naive a misguided belief by many of that by locking down the whole society can somehow protect the old high risk people we're seeing now is so obvious that that wasn't the case it did not change. the high risk pool of people they trust in the us we are haves now over half a 1000000 deaths mostly older people that was a complete failure just saying that these last dance would actually put china and all the high risk people.
3:18 pm
sunday will mark 2 here since we can expound to julian assange he was dragged from the ecuadorian embassy in london and arrested he spent 70 years stuck in the building after being granted asylum by ecuador assad is wanted in the united states on multiple espionage charges for leaking classified military files although so far the u.k. for things to extradite him to the un special rapporteur on torture has described the years long hounding of a song as a war on press freedom as you can hear in the latest edition of going on the ground allotting dot com. i'm not sure it's a key event in the war on terror i think it's a cheap event in what might be trying to call a war on on the press from press freedom. because joining us andre lee stands for someone. defense the right of the public to have access to the
3:19 pm
truth julian assange has exposed evidence for systematic state sponsored torture and disks are these crimes that she provided evidence for have never been prosecuted even after new evidence was published and no one has ever been prosecuted for those acts of torture secondly julian essential self has been exposed. to farias forms of cruel inhuman or degrading treatment that due amounts to psychological torture while i visited him out but for weeks after he had been arrested on the 9th of may 2019 and he was obviously was under a lot of stress he already had that time physically belonging to good physical shape she had suffered through 6 years of isolation in india quit or an embassy but . specially he has been exposed to relent lists. threats scenarios of being extradited to the u.s.
3:20 pm
into a jurisdiction where he cannot expect to be treated according to the rule of law. and we're you have to expect to disappear basically in a burial a lie in some kind of super much. like. one of the world's biggest air carriers united airlines plans to diversify its pool of pilots the company says it will train 10000 more and plans for half of them to be women or people of color the u.s. company says fewer than 7 percent of its pilots are women and just 13 percent are nonwhite the industry is bracing for a wave of vacancies as large numbers of pilots are approaching the retirement age of $65.00 but opinions are divided over who should replace them actually the united airlines has your customer i prefer you mission to always be to employ the very best and talented pilots for god less of race color or gender why would they not be qualified diversifying the job doesn't mean lowering standards it means ending the
3:21 pm
practice of passing over qualified women and minorities in favor of white men one of the ratios of qualified pilots are you going to hire less qualified pilots just to be walk when i fly i want to be confident the pilot on my flight was chosen because they were the most qualified not because of their skin color or gender or your reaction from an aviation safety consultant who believes diversity is necessary but skills and safety should always come 1st. for safety reasons you can use skin color or gender as an excuse to have someone on the flight deck who doesn't belong here because they simply don't have the skills to be there that's not to say that you're prejudice or you're racist it's simply measuring a person's performance to determine are they the best fit to be in their position i have no issue with diversity i have no problem with anybody wanting to become
3:22 pm
a pirate there was a time. as a young man i wanted to become a pilot and i don't think there should be any obstruction to somebody doing what they want to do however that said they have to have the training they have to have the professional skills necessary to use the job properly so diversifying for the sake of diversification and coming up with numbers. out of nowhere. doesn't it doesn't mean anything. spain is doing its best to revive a tourist economy battered by the pandemic the governments now are allowing in travelers from other e.u. states as long as they have negative covert tests in contrast to non-essential trips between spanish regions still banned people on the streets of madrid told us the new rules make no sense. we are all human beings and we should have the same
3:23 pm
privileges you can go to a restaurant with several people and then you go to the subway and hang out with $500.00 it is the contradiction if europe the same thing is happening throughout europe in france cannot travel between region so either but you can travel to spain well the truth is really that bad it doesn't seem right to me right now i could go to france and catch a flight to majorca closing autonomous communities and then letting foreigners come . seems contradictory to me. a look at some other stories making headlines around the world now starting with anti lock down unrest in austria. the government's extended tough covert restrictions of for a week causing fury on the streets of vienna more than 400 people rallied in the austrian capital earlier in the day beating to some ugly scenes riot police used pepper spray to push back the crowds and several arrests were made in.

3:25 pm
a book about his experience called the great escape mr robson who's from wales was stuck in melbourne at the time but couldn't afford his airfare home because it would have cost the equivalent of 12000 pounds today so he came up with a plan to travel as freight inside a wooden box the size of a fridge unfortunately it didn't go as planned the plane was supposed to fly to london but instead it ended up in los angeles research shows spoke to brian about his airborne adventure. you know i understand you spent 4 days in that box 56 years ago i mean it's sounds like absolute torture how did you survive to be honest i'd like to know that it was absolute dollar general and an expected to be and it was really painful. lack of oxygen no oxygen no air pressure in the old. no heating it was absolutely freezing or it was absolutely boiling in between oh it wasn't a very nice experience but as i understand it you actually if you're now
3:26 pm
a public call to track down the 2 irishmen who helped you get into that crate 56 years ago what would you do when you find a i'll let them buy me a beer. well perhaps i'll buy them one i just want to make sure they're all right i have tried for oh well i tried initially to contact them and i couldn't and i'd like to contact them and yes sam come and buy him a drink go have a nice time have a reunion what about what about modern day that if you try to do this today with modern day airport security do you think it will be possible no absolutely not. in those days there was no security it was very lax. aviation was fairly in its infancy as far as passengers were concerned it was very expensive there was no terrorism or oh no nothing so there was very little security actually after i did it they introduced what they considered to be
3:27 pm
a secure method and most countries then started spraying crates with seizing up so if somebody was in there the they would seize obviously you know. news for now because a report. by social class. poverty. if you're born into a poor family ocular born into a minority family if you're born into
3:28 pm
a family that only has a single parent that really constrains your life chances people die. generational poverty. is a fight every day to meet your needs and the needs of your family. max kaiser this is they guys are reports so much to get checked in with stacy maxwell we have been warning the audience we said that all this money printing would pop up somewhere and we have of course seen the wealth gap explode over the past year and here are some data showing how those who already own assets and a time of relentless money printing are the ones who are earning the most well
3:29 pm
since beginning of pandemic median sales price of u.s. homes has jumped by $50000.00 to a record 370000 servicing debt each month this $100.00 more now than a year ago as for real it's her dot com calculation assumes 20 percent down payment 30 year loan a mortgage rate 50 basis points lower than in march 2020 course this is the median sales price though it's you know perhaps higher priced homes are coming on the market as people flee the cities like wealthy people flee san francisco and new york but again this is just demonstrating that those who hold the assets are benefiting the most right right so you make the point about the actual money drops that they did something like $2500.00 or something versus the $50000.00 in house appreciation right that's very starkly demonstrated the inequality here right last year around this time i believe it was 16 $100.00 they gave every most americans
3:30 pm
and then recently they gave every american or close to every american $1400.00 so that's about $3000.00 in total over the past year some families have more because some families have children and they got money so just to put that into context like on the one hand that's the headline grabbing thing everybody is like wow all these families are getting this money well those. that owned assets as well as receiving all their free money made a whole bunch more $50000.00 more in the year i know just where we live all of the house prices have gone up at least 50000 you can look on zillow and on paper it's all a $50000.00 of course if everybody were try to capture that gain it would probably decline rapidly but nevertheless it's just showing you on paper at least you can borrow against it you don't need to sell that property to borrow it $50000.00 more equity at your disposal.
