a german village don't know whether to laugh or cry as different covert restrictions apply depending on what side of the street they're on. the rules should be the seed everywhere of course is difficult to keep track that's why sometimes people you forget about the schools have to be closed because then the long google districts. a warm welcome and a very good morning to you you're watching r t international with me they carry. sex assaults on destruction of life on an appalling scale including of children as the harrowing testimony exposed in a new report finding france to enable the genocide of hundreds of thousands of rwandans and $994.00 the document commissioned by the african states government says paris quote did nothing to stop the slaughter of ethnic tutsi the latest
3:02 am
witness accounts paint a terrifying portrait. even today that sadness does not end the thought that someone came raped you destroyed you and killed your child it is an extreme strain on my heart that will never end i only have survived. one woman died after hutus hacked off her arms and forced them into her mouth or 2 small children aged $1.00 and $5.00 for them slaughtered. they came in a great crowd shouting like crazy people the whole place was littered with bodies.
3:03 am
the report alleges france continued military support to the country even after confirmation of widespread rights abuses more than a 1000000 people lost their lives the scale and brutality of the killings were verbal rated world wide however france still insists it doesn't bear responsibility for inaction as r.t. schalit deep as he reports. morning close to 600 pages and based on interviews with hundreds of witnesses this damning report due to the recent findings by a french commission that said paris was on quote lying to the hutu resume genocidal agenda. to not have acted to prevent the genocide that was a fact but another fact is that the government of france at that time accompanied the rwandan government that was committing massacres preparing a genocide the french government at the time was close to that one government and
3:04 am
supported them in various ways draining the diplomatic and political support that's what we call the responsibility of france in 1904 france led operation turquoise a military humanitarian starting to back in rwanda it went on monday it is moving it seems to being a front for collaboration with the extremist is that allegation of being too close to the to reach was also leveled in the report into the genocide commissioned by from really just this. is the french authorities who in this case bear a grave responsibility because every 3 years instead of supporting democracy in peace in rwanda they supported the rwandan government's policy of radical ethnic division under the leadership of a dictator who was very close to the hutu extremists however senior officials from
3:05 am
the french government. at the time of massacre still refuse to accept the blame i disagree because i did my utmost to ensure that france would not be blamed for being passive and indifferent my concern was not to commit our army in a civil war where it would necessarily have appeared as supporting the hutu government that was being criticized for the genocide france need not apologize although knowing. the report says that they found any evidence that french officials or personnel directly participated in the killing to seize this latest investigation shed some more horrifying light rule in rwanda relations between the 2 countries have been strained for many years and it's uncertain that if with these new reports that this doctor can find. so much even speed r.t. paris. for minneapolis police officer derek showing that he's been found guilty
3:06 am
of the murder of george floor it he's been convicted on all counts crowds that gathered near the court celebrated the verdict. this is. no. great. even was convicted on 3 charges a 2nd degree 3rd degree murder on 2nd degree manslaughter he faces up to 40 years in prison but the official sentence to be just find it in 8 weeks america was swamped with protests off to the incident in may last year.
3:08 am
a retrial one such event was congresswoman maxine waters encouraging crowds to get more confrontational if showing up and what acquitted the judge had warned that such incendiary rhetoric could prejudice the outcome yet mainstream media maintain the comments were harmless. believe it or not does not happen and we're no harder to get our problems. i don't think what she said in in any way should we should criticize her for of course we should be more confrontational do you really think she is calling for violence and most people know that that's not true. and the people who are speaking out against her are using it politically i don't think that maxine meant anything by that except to say you have to stick with a you know you have to be there she is she's fine as far as i'm concerned well 1st off they've got the mainstream american media in their back pocket but this is by
3:09 am
any means necessary you know this is rules for radicals this is whatever it takes to get the job done what maxine waters did is tantamount to a mafia intimidation during the trial i mean it really is you know now these jurors if they catch wind of this in any way shape or form are going to think that hey you know we brought dozens of people god last year is the blood of those people are going to be in our hands if we don't return a guilty verdict against child and you know who wants to live with that on their conscience it's completely thrown the legal process in the due process and the constitutional rights of this police officer into question. house speaker pelosi applauded the verdict on thank floyd for sacrificing his life but there's been a scathing reaction to what's with some thinking they actually believe it's all the victim we saw it happen and thank god the jury.
3:10 am
dated what we. what we saw so again thank you cure. for sacrificing your life or just think you murdered person for without your horrific killing we would have never known that it's not ok to kill people for no reason nancy pelosi in a nutshell the word 2nd 5 simplifies it was necessary this is how liberals will read produced a larger labeled his life expendable in the 1st place no no no no what the 2nd feis in your life is something people have to do on their own floyd was murders we just had the whole trial. has been sharply differing reaction to the case from our guests some thought police change their tactics this time the say the only thing that's changed is that offices are now getting course but i thought was most unusual about this case is that director obama was pretty much thrown under the bus by the police department is on the police chief justified against them normally
3:11 am
emmy's trials in these cases were police officers are accused of misconduct and go on trial policemen fill the room to intimidate the witnesses to intimidate the system itself incorrectly and we don't see any of that in this case we didn't see the police department supporting show bond we didn't see the the cops in the or room we also didn't see a lot of his family members at the courtroom either so that was kind of unusual probably because very much because of what was the both local national and international the case got there was some pressure on the state to prosecute show on and i think this is the result of i don't see this as a race issue. i know a lot of people do but on the ground finger on the poles of the community trying cases day in and day out there is no longer me and very frustrating liii not so obvious presence of police officers who abuse their authority against black white indian agent american or whatever it may be that they're dealing with and you know
3:12 am
it shouldn't be that way you should trust law enforcement officers many people including myself support good law enforcement officers but it's the bad apples that contaminate the entire bowl of minestrone soup as justice oliver wendell holmes would say and let's hope there's an extraordinary amount of change that's going to be weaved in the community and to the nation for real use of force implementation not just showing up to a class and signing off to say hey i let you do this for half an hour we need real change. around the time of the shaving trial verdict an african-american teen was fatally shot by police in columbus ohio the officers were responding to reports of a stabbing with the girl allegedly attacking 2 people with a knife angry protests spilled out onto the streets following the deadly shooting. in a new pinnacle for irony notoriously fans are happy you tube passed sponsored
3:13 am
a freedom of expression award and doled out the prize to its own boss but with 99 percent dislikes on the video of the event it seems the ridiculousness of the situation is not lost on its users artie's demeter park reports. you know how it's becoming harder and harder to tell reality from satire these days well it's because of stuff like this since and i'm so honored to be able to present you tonight with a free expression award for your incredible leadership with u 2 and i just want to say thank you for all the work that you've done to empower people around the world congrats on your very well deserved award thank you so much for the freedom farm for having me here today and for this award this is real in award show on you tube sponsored by you tube giving you tube c.e.o. of all things in award for freedom of expression means are literally coming to life . and you need
3:14 am
a lightsaber to cut through the irony in this case which might explain the whole area is this like ratio on the video. over the last few years you tube has practically become synonymous with censorship and anything is there not really even denying it c they just call it responsibility work in her post award interview susan widgets you tube c.e.o. took the time to explain the fundamentals of youtube's work the 4 r's of responsibility the 1st are i kid you not is removed you can't make this up after receiving an award for free expression the 1st thing she brags about is how they removed $9000000.00 videos in the last quarter that's $3000000.00 videos a month and all of that or most of it was done with fabulous machines these are videos that allegedly broke you tube's ever changing terms of service which at this point is so vague an open server taishan that literally any video can be suddenly
3:15 am
deemed unacceptably dangerous have an opinion on coded don't like the w.h.o. don't like the election results banned for free speech the 2nd r. is rise which basically. it means boosting or recommending videos that have the right opinion according to you tube so basically videos by mainstream media corporations their partners but you know those guys that always tell the truth and never run a fake story. 3rd are is reduce this one is the best this means ghosting or shadow banning or hiding videos that have not broken any rules that are completely fair game you tube just doesn't like them so they make them impossible to find so even if you're really careful about getting your thoughts out there and here to all of you tube's ridiculous rules avoid all the no no words you still might get chateau banned or censored if youtube doesn't like your opinion and then
3:16 am
there's a lot of content that technically meets the spirit of what we're trying to do by it . it's borderline and so 6 for that content we will just reduce meaning we're not going to recommend it to our users and this has been happening to countless creators over the past few years subscribers magically disappear videos don't show up in feeds of people who are subscribed and so on a platform that prides itself on allowing diverse voices there doesn't seem to be a lot of permissible variety when it comes to actual speech the final r. is reward which is basically all about that ad money making sure that people with the right opinions get it and the people with the wrong ones don't explain to me again how any of these principles have anything to do with free speech the freedom forum institute which gave out this award claims its mission is to foster 1st amendment freedoms for all but apparently they haven't actually read the text of
3:17 am
the 1st amendment it literally says congress shall make no laws abridging the freedom of speech but i guess you tube isn't congress so they can make all the laws they want right well then maybe they shouldn't pretend like they actually care. about the 1st amendment or free speech and definitely not get awards for it. and it goes back into a long down off the record number of new covert cases what are the details for you after the break. when almost choked seemed wrong. roads just don't call. me. yet to shape out just to become educated and in gay trade because betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.

3:20 am
book was poorly timed and he dove under cuomo. we're in the middle of a pandemic people are dying and you had time to write a book that was my 1st thought it was adding insult to injury of felt like i got in the gut all of the families felt the same way he he dare straight a book when we're suffering and people are dying a just it's unconscionable to me he's in that the deaths of over 15000 innocent senior citizens wasn't the nail in the coffin so to speak were governor cuomo. a governorship is that that's the most egregious tremlett the sextet that the book deal that's bad too but there's nothing were agreed just in the mass deaths of over 15000 innocent senior citizens if that didn't get him out of waters

what will get him out of it's. the indian capital has imposed a week long lockdown after a deadly surge in covert cases fatalities hit a daily record in new delhi on choose day bringing the nationwide total to more than $180000.00 hospitals across the nation are severely overcrowded meaning new covert patients are simply being turned away there are widespread reports of ambulances loaded with bodies dropping them off at crematorium and its fate the official death toll could mask the truth scale of the crisis public health experts among told us the situation is dire. the indian situation right now is very grim with the can really. do need to go hard it will be very difficult for them to sort of look you know really explored i think the current situation for indian government is will be to really ensure that they have enough supply for the
3:22 am
domestic population to your question about exports i think that is something which will now have to be assessed the bigger issue is the lack of diagnosis because there are cases where people are not able to detect according to the regular testing and you have to go for her different macan exam and also i think the other challenge which is emerging is that it's hitting the population of a younger age which was not the case and in that way one. india registered 273000 covert infections on monday alone with numbers remaining close to record highs but while the caseload saw as the vaccine rollout is failing to keep up only a small fraction of the population has been inoculated as despite india being the world's largest faxon producer and manufacturing many of the shots used in the west india has also signed up to produce 200000000 doses for up to 92 countries as part
3:23 am
of the w h o's kovacs program although those supplies are now on hold the government has moved to restrict the vaccine exports to make up for the domestic short fall at delhi medical association dr told of india can no longer afford to send it short approach. with. less than 10 percent and. the we didn't or so many seen less to have the impact on the herd immunity and on the coverage of the vexed issue it will be difficult for india. to keep pace with their international obligations in the institution we're going to. be brought or the countries. where depending on india the country will have on their own the sources.

cross the streets and enjoy less covert restrictions than the bizarre rule under which one divided german village lives and the absurdity of the situations not been lost on the residents. her. city last with different rules in place and many of the side of a special boundary it's because scrutinous a split between $22.00 or tauriel service allows for a district in the city of las vegas and allow
3:25 am
a group district infection rate is over $160.00 per 100000 so that part of our village has stopped or restrictions. on what so it gets confusing and front there is the music and behind you is the lounge district to some houses belong to one and some to the upper accepted us i think this is the residence just accept this it's been happening ever since the restrictions began was stick to the rules so no one asked why am i allowed to do this and not that it just works. just as good at what dish it's just the schools have to be closed because then too long the districts and the texas drive from one side of the street 2000. and 6 in the rules should be deceived every way of course is difficult to keep track that's

in a world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the depths. or remain in the shallows. psychiatric drugs are essential for millions of patients rather they want that pill that the hope will take care of their problems their only and rapidly in the short term they really work the problem is in the long term and mostly disastrous suddenly stopping a drug can cause withdrawal symptoms more serious than the condition it was meant to treat instead of. the beneficial effects of these different medicines up to something wonderful very often there or in full effects it up to something terrible until sold. probably trying to medicate life itself i just think i was in like i
