3:01 am
it sends an unwelcome message we put it up for to play. this is just a story to. tell you that these women are anything over all the women don't want to see transitioned into the male. voice. that's transforming the grossest common sense. time good morning from russia kevin over here at r.t. h.q. with the latest for the next 4 years you just heard those headlines france's most famous general is waging wars beyond the grave on the cultural front as a country pulls out all the stops to celebrate 200 years since napoleon's death
3:02 am
debate is raging still about whether it's high time to cancel the emperor seen by many as a genocidal tyrant to blame for the deaths of millions nonetheless his fans to this day hail him as the nation's greatest ever hero charlotta bensky enters the fray in paris. napoleon bonaparte it's a name that everyone you know is a french emperor conqueror of nations 200 years after his death and his ideals still shape france but wasn't a polian a hero or a villain i'm pretty good that's a bit of both because he did good things he did a lot for the evolution of france but he also destroyed countries during his conquests in fact so it is a bit of both. yeah bit of both so i would say he did a lot for france but obviously he made mistakes too from a foreign policy point of view this is one detail his career in fact he invented everything the civil code so indeed like all great man he did things that are good
3:03 am
and then others that are bad and i think he did more good than bad for me he still hero in the 121st century napoleon's legacy seems to be on shaky ground critics have described the french leader as a racist sexist desperate and there is plenty of evidence to show that napoleon wouldn't cut the mustard in today's world we're going to be the 1st time in history we systematically used a racial criteria for gassing exterminating a civil population in a manner that was the most economical most rational at the end there were several 1000 dead maybe some tens of thousands of civilians dead murdered in this way simply because of the color of their skin because of the fact that the polian had reintroduced slavery in the main french colony. despite the mounting case against new polian events all planned in france and belgium to mark the anniversary of his
3:04 am
death there is no question of allowing this anniversary to be stolen from us people know perfectly well that he risked his slavery but you can't reduce him to that no other figure has marked history like him well some former french presidents have shied away from. memory ting a polian president mack or we'll know what he's due to lay a wreath at napoleon's to me in paris and to make an address to mark the anniversary trances in fact the only country in the world where slavery was as we established after its was abolished nobody has ever since such a thing and i were president the president of the so called country dimon rights would like to celebrate somebody who was associated with so many crimes that is acceptable is a day of shame mr merkel is not only making. mistakes but also
3:05 am
it's a good one. that's going to be. 'd even for the elections he also says that it's ludicrous that france continues to celebrate a loser but it was a disaster. because even if you don't care about black people in the corridors even if you do that if you don't care about your. friends who lost 1000000 soldiers. which is a lot for nothing. because of the debt of the day he lost everything for example france all under. which was at this time 20 percent of the united states that's was lost because of leprosy our friends have made it into an ocean like sishen muster and all of that was lost if a racist or a nationalist person should say he's a booster so does that change people's opinion of napoleon. in these cases yes because in a way he helped france with certain things but it cost
3:06 am
a lot of freedom and lot of sacrifice that the human level to them off it's obviously his big mistake maybe to have reestablished slavery but also he brought a lot to france who though his initiatives especially at all levels of administration and then he may have helped make some progress in certain countries maybe. we had from university structure a john laughlin who says many of those seeking to cancel the emperor ignoring said values that in fact they may have in common with. the fact is that he is a product of the french revolution and so the left if you like which would want to cancel him and dethrone him for being a racist or whatever. unfortunately is in a rather paradoxical position because of course the left supports the french revolution of which napoleon is a product domestically it is undeniable that his influence is immense everybody
3:07 am
knows that the napoleonic code is still more or less in force that he invented or at least codify all kinds of other things including the administrative structure of france and obviously influence the army and the school system and so on and so on so yes he was a loser on the on the international stage because he was defeated. but he in a way he's not a loser really i would say domestically on the contrary his his influence for good or ill is undeniable throughout the centuries. in new york governor andrew cuomo to the news again this time for insinuating that unvaccinated people could kill their relatives it's after he himself was accused of allowing covert spreading care homes the state's high number of deaths now revealed maybe you will get along horsedrawn that we're not really sure what it is yet but a lingering consequence of cold it or maybe you go home and get your grandmother
3:08 am
and wind up killing your grandmother that is if you would run mother survive comas nursing home do you think the moment after he said that he was internally regressing setting himself up like that or is he just clueless i'll never forgive this man for making my friend die alone in a nursing home don't like wrong get me a grandmother. in march 2020 cuomo ordered nursing homes except covert positive patients because local hospitals at the time were overwhelmed well critics say the decision increased the death toll among residents new york state has one of the highest mortality rates in the us with care home deaths that are over 14000 the governor has also been accused of hiding the truth is however he's repeatedly insisted to he won't resign as he doesn't see the miscount as a cover up. q years 3328 died in
3:09 am
a hospital died in a nursing home they don't write. tracey elven an advocate for those in nursing homes and indeed whose father died in a care facility on long island told the she things quote was common signori the reality of the situation our seniors trusted us to protect them and what do we can we get a governor in f.l. just that harry did and makes these tone deaf remarks that continues to twist denies that he placed in the hearts of us the grieving family members we had our leaders are in hell to arm and the head of the and i each out in february telling us citizens that we knew that it was most deadly to the elderly back then in february so when you sign an executive order that lets a virus that is known to be the most evil elderly people even with elderly people i don't want to sound dramatic but that sounds a lot like murder and we need to know why he did it was there
3:10 am
a monetary reason that he did it all of this needs to be investigated and every time we think he might get away with it he opens his mouth and he buries unsubtle a little bit deeper the fact that we have over 15000 evangelists on our side who never discount the. transgender females can keep playing women sports in the us state of kansas after the state failed to hold the governor vetoing a new bill banning them from taking part of the bill previously passed by the state's legislature targeted males taking part in women's sports but it didn't stop those born favorable from participating in men's kansas governor laura kelly explained to veto. this legislation sends a devastating message that kansas is not welcome into all children and their families including those who are transgender while already at a high risk of bullying discrimination and suicide kansas is an inclusive state and our laws should reflect our values this law doesn't do that since republicans
3:11 am
couldn't stop abortions there aren't a transgender rights big win for the family and those athletes i am annoyed by this they have grown up as men head there's transfer of physical ability not a level playing field it's really stupid kansas should frank very governor for saving them from the stupid the decision comes as 5 other states bring into law such bans as well and 34 others are considering it we talked to lawyers stephanie hayden and also radio sports host i learned more about whether the issue is a dog whistle for transfer and who should decide if to take part or not. what with the rights of women and its own gender you know the number of times in car sports on our radio show we spoke with female athletes interviewed they have concerns for daily selves fielder's is aramis going on the board their heads will hear it stay with us you have to saw her there is a dangerous well there's a new who would invite you to listen to glance at goodwill both
3:12 am
a lot of the society will lose a situation where there are no deadly consequences what this is a balance in my view is using the argument out access to sport transgendered women and bells as a dolphin whistle for transpose be at lest the real heya this not sick hearing of what people call mileage command i would say trans women killing all 2 joy in female sports as a way of securing metals that they otherwise would not secure if they were competing against biological man in early sports i don't think it is you know there's just not transformed me in this and i got into it and wasn't bringing transco me that is a dog now has a my argument saying there well i don't want to see a man who's transitioned into female lead to greener and placed my daughter in the
3:13 am
ring does not transfer will be just as common sense this is just a scary story which is brought town waltz again too. probably take the view that trans women are anything all the ball other than women you know women sports of women's sports and i'm not saying that it's appropriate in every sport that somebody who was formally male should be allowed to compete in some spots that would be ridiculous however if the governing body of the sport takes the view that trans women tranced else can compete safely and fairly then lies in lots of the day and every look at the rules were bigger rebroadcasts probably got in the states or it's not are transitioning mero who compiz other high schools and universities have to unlearn people who present themselves or 2 who approve feel themselves female today should be given the same rights and be there to be if you're in sports it's
3:14 am
sort of being used right now and a lot to do that's find a lesser in in the states and in the senate floor under the golden rule rule in the end. it is so so messy and so dangerous politics should be kept down to sports it is not the business in my opinion of a state legislature to start passing legislation restricting our express to sport for any group in money feeling the way this should be dealt with is that each individual sport violates governing bodies should make a decision on what is best for the sport the some sports for example where it can be argued that the so-called biological differences are not going to make a difference into how severe their certain way and of the one of the poles or the will be their separate category to be male female your next category are the have to cook a soused solutions are. looking for
3:15 am
a sporting going to view or forcing a lot of people who know about general interest and order want to get involved in it because it suits their agenda or. just is not good. to worry again. if female athletes people see sports administrators what is best for their people and there are still going to be. a tsunami of infections as lead to almost 400000 registered cases of covidien in india with over 3000 people dying every day it's a really i wanted global record hospitals are running short of oxygen still mass funeral pyres are burning almost nonstop and concerned countries are sending aid. i am happy to help others during
3:16 am
a medical emergency i myself tested positive for cover 19 and at that time the situation was very critical when i was discharged from the hospital i decided to create a water ambulance to benefit the people who are living in da lake i ask people to call me during the covert emergency i will definitely help them even if it's night . it is good for the people even in those around delhi really need this ambulance because the are a medical emergencies it could be beneficial for us in kashmir there is also a surge in infections and deaths at least ambulance could be used during an emergency related to coronavirus.
3:17 am
when we find homeless people on the streets check their needs and help them live a dignified life we received information that this homeless man has been here for the last 3 days he's not well we're going to conduct a covert test for him and if he is negative he will be sent to a shelter home. sad state of affairs there isn't it so because but if i'm so you know this is ahead could it be the end for benny when netanyahu is what his predecessor speaks to us. direct and thinks it could be the israeli prime minister's career is over in his view he misses the deadline to form a coalition government we will tell you more and the rest of the news out of this right.
3:18 am
the world is driven by shaped by one person. in a day or thinks. we should ask. how should we interpret the recent f.b.i. raid on the home of former trump lawyer rudy giuliani a legitimate investigation into wrongdoing or a strong and very public political warning is trump his former circle and supporters the real target can the average citizen trust the f.b.i.
3:19 am
. again morning so the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has missed his chance to form a new coalition government the deadline expired at midnight tuesday is failure to reach an agreement could now pushes party into opposition for the 1st time in over a decade israel's been in political deadlock for the past 2 years during that time for parliamentary elections of failed to produce a stable government despite reaching out to rivals including now the leader of a small islamist arab party netanyahu was unable to seal the deal within the 4 week window granted by the country's president our sister channel r.t.
3:20 am
arabic spoke to former israeli prime minister ehud olmert he told us in his view netanyahu is nearing the end of his career. speaks to us was one everyone knows why and you know using in a very very bad situation he is at the very end of his career he's going to be kicked out from the government he's not going to be the next prime minister of israel that a sailor really 2 years ago and i was right in our last interview i told you he will not win any elections when you didn't win the election so you was when the palais thing where we went to 4 different election campaigns in 2 years because netanyahu couldn't win the elections and therefore when you don't win the elections when you're in bed when you have troubles when you wave to standing court when you have political rivals from all sides what is left for you to do is to yell to shout to to show off. you know the entry school principals under investigation in florida
3:21 am
after spanking a 6 year old the instant raises questions asking why such punishments continue in a country that prides itself on being a beacon of democracy well i'm opens got morning. now you would think that teachers beating their students in order to keep them in line is a thing of the past and certainly doesn't happen now adays well if you think that you are wrong a recent incident in florida caught on video sparked outrage here's what happened to a 6 year old girl who allegedly damaged a school computer and there is disturbing video this morning of a school principal hitting a 6 year old student with a wooden paddle now the video was recorded by her mother she came to the school in order to pay a fine for the damage to property now the mother did not speak english and feared for her immigration status so rather than intervene she discreetly took out her phone and recorded how the principal spanked her daughter with the help of another
3:22 am
staff member nobody would have believed me i sick my daughter so old parents can realize what's happening in the school now the official rules of county school don't permit for students to be hit but apparently it does happen however many counties throughout florida do have official policies permitting the use of corporal punishment elementary school principals are now able to paddle misbehaving students in marion county and many people at our morning news meeting wondered could bay area schools be next piece of video showing 2 adults at an elementary school in georgia prepared to paddle a 5 year old child it's perfectly legal in that state and 18 other states 19 us states maintain laws allowing corporal punishment in public schools and almost every state keeps it legal in private schools now some say this is just part of the religious and traditional cultures of some regions throughout the united states but others say this is an outdated authoritarian practice pretty much child abuse and it has no place in modern education if our point is in giving indication to our
3:23 am
children who would employ reduces the amount of education and. mindset that a child could have while learning so i would say since that's the point of going to school been. we're dealing with a wooden board is counterproductive to all children having the possibility to excel in schools whether it's a poor school or a very well reschooling children do better when they feel safe people across the country have very strong opinions about this disciplinary practice and i feel like that's a something that a parent should do like that kind of discipline should come from parents and teachers should. just shouldn't be allowed to do that it's on their job description i will definitely make sure that those people go to jail because. i don't think it can buy in this is the answer for punishment i think that he said a lot of ways to. make sure that the kids that are in the house listens to the fact
3:24 am
that beating children as a routine form of punishment in schools across the country certainly flies in the face of the image the united states has constructed for itself around the world the very sad thing about it is that i mean there are historical reasons i'll put it like that for why re still having it but i think one of the saddest things about it is that there are over 2 dozen other nations that will not be and this practice until we will so that type of violence is going on in our schools and there's no signs that proves that this helps and as a matter of fact the top schools in our nation frown upon the use of the word employed so that kind of tells us something right there about its necessity. russia's branded francis someone who had some bust of the powers as an aide to coordinate political stunts it comes off to moscow place sanctions on 8 e.u. citizens on the structures on diplomatic missions here in russia in our opinion the
3:25 am
fact that the russian ambassador to france was summoned to the country's foreign ministry is clearly part of a political stunt coordinated by you member states and mostly repeats what was said to russia's representative to the u. . but law previously levit citations against russia and some member states expelled diplomats too over the jailing of alexina valmy russia has placed a travel ban and therefore on 8 top e.u. officials in retaliation a move the e.u. president branded groundless moscow stressed though the move is an act of protest adding it could be reversed of any moment we have repeatedly made it clear that it wasn't asked for started this war sanctions might attend the moment we are ready to walk our part of the path to end this pointless confrontation in which there will not and cannot be any witness hostile policy towards russia has been pursued by only a small group of individual countries to their own detriment political commentator
3:26 am
john bricmont believes the e.u. simply following the example set by the united states. against interest them in the actions of the obviously not started the sanctions regime and the sanctions game so i would say the russians of change must know that and the europeans must know that to mohali the lobby and says that they are terribly following the americans this is the european parliament's under heel bottom and the political leader was elected and it is at least part of its population with digging to account realistically since you were the ground sequence of his actions will be there in both the old and government as. will give other guns and that hardly the world view. of what was going to happen to the media is this is who waited in just there in that they were on the album of course listening to the heightened tension between russia and the innate that there's a saying that depends on the united states and the united states need changes for some reason or. to happen we'll see but then of course you have to look silly
