they are strikes on gaza have been launched by israel following a mosque as rocket fire on jerusalem so will the united states be able to stay out of the conflict we're going to discuss and the code vaccine has been approved for ages 12 to 15 does this mean mandatory vaccination for middle schoolers are in the future this as senator rand paul has taken dr fell to task about the origins of coded then someone joins us to discuss plus is the u.s. government paying people not to work well dr wolfe will help us decide and meanwhile is it google going back on the word and still tracking your activity we're going to update you on the latest and what you can do about it i'm sorry no he's in all of these stories on today's edition of news he is used right here on our to america.

we start the show with escalating conflict between the israelis and the palestinians now you are currently looking at a live picture on the left of your screen of the israel gaza border as a nice quiet seems to be very quiet now but that is in large comparison to the video on your right is earlier when the skyline was being lit up by fire power from both sides now sirens are going off across all of israel and both sides seem to show signs the fighting is going to continue to escalate and there is a lot of there's a lot of volved in the scituate situation and people on both sides of the conflict i have to say that are very passionate and the support for their group very passionate but i actually want to look past that is that's what a lot of people right now are doing today they're trying to obviously back up the side that they belong on i actually want to look at what the world the u.s. has played and possibly could play in this conflict and does it actually help or hurt the situation so help me with their discussion about the united states'

involvement in the region during this time iran dana mcadams executive director of the ron paul institute thanks for joining me daniel. thanks for having me scottie you know i want to 1st look at the u.s. is relationship right now with israel with and with the palestinian state under the biden administration now president trump was actually very close to the israel made a very open has that changed under president biden well you're right scott is that things if things are getting very very bad and you know of course it means committee united states is portraying it as just a mosque woke up one morning and decide to start bombing and that's of course not the case that we don't foresee leading up to this for several days now with the attacks on the awesome odds etc but the you know the bud administration the trumpet ministers was very very vocally pro israel very strong in its actions in favor of israel it might be tempting to see the bud administration as being more even handed i would suggest that's not the case joe biden has a long history in washington decades in washington he's always been a very ardent supporter of israel is called himself

a committed zionist and once back in 86 on the floor of the senate he said israel didn't exist united states of america would have to invent israel because it's such a wonderful thing in the middle east so i think by and large with some pressure from the progressive flake of his own party which has been pretty much marginalized i would say overall u.s. policy is about the same with perhaps less enthusiasm on the bottom ministrations i said i have to ask you why is this happening now concerned we have seen peace in this region especially to this large scale always back in 2014 but definite 4 years i mean president trump you know why is this happening today 3 months is that anything to do with us are there something else happening within the region. well i think a lot of things are happening right now that are coming together we've seen the tension between israel and hamas but let's not forget that the israelis are seem to be incapable of forming a government and netanyahu has been unpopular at home is not able to form a government this is all in the course of broader context which maybe we'll talk about later of the ongoing talks in the vienna where the biden ministration is

finding it so difficult task getting back into the j c p a way the iran deal which the of course biden promised he would do we do know that he often yahoo will pull out all stops the israeli government pull out all stops to prevent that from happening and so i think you have to you have to look at this escalation of the last 24 hours in that context as well so is this current conflict that's happening right now you mentioned i've said that basically obviously iran and others sort of fit together as a puzzle you know in this conflict in this conflict you say that you know america invited i was even pro israel but obviously pro palestine as well as us has to state what role do you think that america is playing in and do you think they're going to be able to stay out of it for how long. well america's never been any. an honest broker in the middle east it's always taken the side of israel there's no question even the state department spokesman today couldn't bring himself to say that the palestinians also have the right to self-defense he only could mention the

israeli rockets that. the palestinian rockets who are targeting israeli civilians well the fact of the matter is the israelis do have several high rise housing complexes which definitely are civilian so yes so the aliens are being targeted on both sides but a portion of the united states once again is incapable of seeing that both sides are on the receiving end of rockets and weapons well but this being said i remember during the obama administration one of the accusations that come out is that american taxpayer dollars actually went to run against benjamin netanyahu and his election underneath obama which obviously biden was very much president so could you actually think that you know netanyahu biden is a huge supporter of what is going on in israel right now considering he basically tried to get him out said when he was vice president with president obama well this shows the folly of u.s. interventionist foreign policy or no you pick one side and it wins you pick another side it loses and you're stuck in the middle the best thing for america would to do

would be to completely get out of the middle east stop supporting either side supporting one side of the other in the us that means supporting israeli of the palestinians it doesn't help the israelis doesn't help the americans it doesn't help the palestinians really it just makes matters worse the best way we can so we can work toward peace in the middle east is to completely give disengage the united states well and that i think is something that we can all agree on that any time obvious and that sort of kind of like election interference from what i heard but you know i guess it only matters if one of the countries accused of the side of the u.s. i do want to talk about you know the benjamin accords have a something that is under the trump administration does that have any impact on how are other middle eastern countries responding at this point. well right now we haven't seen much response you know if it depends what netanyahu is promising and that's collation hamas has shown remarkable ability to fire a number of missiles far more than the israelis expected in the very expensive iron

dome defense system has not has not knocked down these missiles and i think it's surprising israelis to a degree i don't know that they will want to see an escalation i think that the partners in the benjamin accords are abraham accords are going to be very has to turn this well but the israelis are glad to see if they're having problems with a few 100 palestinian rockets what's going to happen if iran if hezbollah in lebanon decide to get involved in what as well it's going to be a bloodbath so it really is in israel's best interest at this point to back down and look for some way to reach an accord but at that point is israel saying i'm not going to bite right now israel's sort of depending on the u.s. if that was to happen and all of those have she said were to actually bomb together against israel isn't israel then turn around and say ok can i take us time to you for you to step in. i don't know that they'd want to do that they may have to in the end i think the u.s. would probably be the 1st of all interior if that were the case let's hope it

doesn't come to that but israel is left with not a lot of options yes it has nuclear weapons but it certainly can't use them on its neighbors because it would be right in the middle of the radiation to blow back so they're pretty limited right now when they're surrounded by groups that they're irritating further and further you know what they could do was back off and stop stealing palestinian homes in east jerusalem so the settlers to back off and i think really the body admission could deliver a message like that to netanyahu and maybe it's in a better position than trump was to deliver that message who knows what is definitely a different especially interesting to see how the u.s. has actually i hope i agree with you i hope they stay out of it i don't think that haven't both sides however today at this point seem to be digging in the hills conflict does not seem like it's going to end soon and sadly and this is what really hurts the people on the ground more bloodshed is expected on both sides thank you so much for joining us thanks scottie. the f.d.a. has declared under their emergency orders the use of the pfizer vaccine for

children 12 to 15 years old with pfizer actually hoping to have the vaccine available get this for ages 2 to 11 in september now this last approval will give almost 17000000 children access to the vaccine at a time when the latest numbers actually show people under 18 account for only one out of every 5 new chronic virus infection but are extremely low risk of actually having a symptom more than a cold hospitalization and even death so this is good news well we bring investigative journalism business want to help us figure this out and then let me get this name is did not come as a surprise to you but tell us what we know about the study which cleared pfizer vaccine for children in this age group. yeah it's pretty concerning here so a couple of things this study essentially is saying that kids who are as you said you know 12 to 15 and then 16 and over are all eligible now to actually receive the coven vaccine the problem of course with this as you rightly said in the intro here

is that young people teenagers children are the least susceptible we know this the least susceptible to cohabit in terms of the seriousness of the virus they are very likely to either be asymptomatic mean they show no symptoms at all or they have very light cases of it and so you have to ask the question why would you allow for tens of millions of children and teenagers across the country to receive a vaccination for a virus that has been proven it's not suspected it's proven to have a mild effect on them to receive this vaccination at all especially when you consider the fact that it's still being deployed and still ringback being used on an f.d.a. emergency basis we do not know all of the side effects of these vaccines because of the fact of the f.d.a. hasn't reviewed them so why would you approve this for children and for young people who we know are the least susceptible to serious conditions as

a result of coping well and i have to ask if parents are looking at this now possibly might be required and followed by some states what is the difference between and this vaccine why can't they just group it in or acquire it like they do all the other vaccines that are required for school age children with different there's a lot of there's a big difference the biggest difference is there's not a single vaccine that your kids are required to have when they go to school that has been issued under an f.d.a. emergency usage rights and that's so important for parents to understand if we're talking about getting back to school in the fall and you're right this is why the reason why this is being pushed right now is to say by the time we have a fall every school age child is going to probably be. required to be vaccinated but all the other vaccines that you're supposed to have and by the way in many states you're allowed to have either a religious exemption or a medical exemption because we know for a fact when it comes to all vaccines not every single person is safe taking every

single kind of vaccine people are different we know this but there's not a single other vaccine for all the ones that are out there where it's being issued under an emergency basis therefore there's been no 0 f.d.a. study of the effects that it will have long term on kids we do not know what it is and so the idea that you would mandate this look it's a way of getting around what's being referred to as vaccine hesitancy he can't get the parents to do it but you can force the kids to do it or else you can come back to class which is quite frankly insane well and polio small paxman a giant i commend all of those the kids are in fact safe for actually affects kids and more than just like a snifter so i think that's a huge difference you're right about the f.d.a. then why have you i would like you to also to weigh in on dr fallon she being questioned today by the senator rand paul regarding the origin of the credit virus and why we still have not held anyone accountable for it. i just don't support sending money to the we've gone viral a-g. institute we do not send money now to do want to. send in money we did under your

tutelage we were sending it through eco health it was a sub agency and as grant do you support the money from an age that was going to the wood on institute let me explain to you why that was done. the saw as coal v one originated in bats in china it would have been irresponsible of us if we did not investigate the bad viruses and the surrounding g to see who might have been or perhaps would not support ascended to the chinese government that we may not be able to trust with this knowledge and with this is incredibly dangerous viruses government scientists like yourself who favor again a function i don't favor again of passion research in generalities you are saying and that are not correct this was crazy to watch friday watch and i real quick i got to ask you what is gain of function research and what is the u.s. actually finding yes so so again

a function research is literally taking coronavirus cells and making them attach better to humans that's what again if that's what gain a function literally means because a coronavirus when it moves from an animal to a human most coronaviruses like sars for instance are not very effective at making that leap from animals to humans again in function research which has gone on in the united states since 2002 to 2014 there's plenty of documents that prove that we were finding that through different universities including the university of north carolina in 2014 the obama administration said you cannot do this anymore because you're trying to make coronaviruses attach better to human cells instead of ending at the in h. move offshore to china to 6 different labs including the rule of a biology all of this is laid out in documents it's very clear what he said today in front of rand paul. was a lie when he said that the u.s. government. he says have never been a function research it's an absolute lie on thursday i'm actually releasing

a document in the podcast we're going to show you documents that actually prove that in 2016 it was very clearly happening and they. were essentially saying we're proud of the work we're doing to create again a function research on coronavirus and you don't have to investigate too hard to find that and they found a loophole in this maybe they had direct link if they gave it their eco health eco health which i'm sure you'll explain then like oh yes we're just beginning to dive into it and i know you'll hold their feet to the fire as you continue to gain more and more research you got it thanks thank you scott. and when we return the i'm a are americans being incentivized to stay at home rather than get a job or is this just another part of the recovery process our expert will join us to discuss. hi folks joe namath's here and if you're on medicare this is important you're now

alabama and south carolina jumping on board 1st but hold on we're actually saying state governments deny federal money oh i do way as hell just frozen over well doctor will be thinking this is the system when it capitalism fails to save us from pandemics or itself joins me now dr wolfe thank you so much thank you you know president by in the last press conference he had this to say about the disappointing unemployment numbers that were just rolled out. we're going to make it clear that anyone collecting unemployment who is offered a suitable job must take the job or lose their unemployment benefits that's the law no one should be allowed to game the system it's easy to say the line is bend because of the generous unemployment benefits that is a major factor in labor shortages i think people who claim americans won't work even if they find a good and fair opportunity underestimate the american people dr weil i've asked

you what does it say about of the or this is even something which is needed to be addressed by the highest office in the united states. well i think we're seeing a pretty ugly spectacle the employers in the in those states are powerful enough and impressed by it to get the governor of the state the legislature to not accept federal money and there's nothing there's not a nice way to say this if you take away the extra $300.00 per week that is given to unemployed people to help them get through the worst pandemic in a century if you take it away you're making those people suffer and you're basically saying ok now you better go back to work because that will at least be better than doing without the $300.00 we can give them 300 dollars to work or not

work we gave them $300.00 because it was that these are right thing to do since they were unemployed used up their savings and all the rest this is a pretty ugly ploy a tough force them back to work and you know there's an easier easier alternative if you want people to come back to work if you want to overcome the so called labor shortage raise the wages that will bring the people back they don't want to live on the employment compensation there's plenty of studies that show that so this is this is the same basic policy that led to not raising the minimum wage to $15.00 an hour because you want people that you can get to work for less it now turns out that you have to force them and we shouldn't be in the business of doing that and you're right the federal government for sure shouldn't be doing well and that's why they have i get in the river my people were working with because prices

for cars and business owners had to shut down they weren't getting a check to keep them open without actual business happening that means that the prices are opening up they are offering what they can in their budget are lucky that somebody. were able to survive as we've seen a huge kick cut in small business from this year so how do they get there wow how do you get those people motivated to actually go to work and save higher higher wages but what are the small businesses can't afford people to come back with paying those wages well you know that's always been a good question what do you do if you need to help people have a living wage on the one hand and that's the majority but you also want to help the employers particularly small businesses they need particularly those that had a hard time dual goals give them the minimum wage they need to have a decent life and a decent job and help to small businesses the able to afford that we shouldn't be putting the small business which has suffered against the workers they need to hire

who has suffered that lets the people at the top of this system enjoy the fighting below them let's help bolster the workers we need and deserve it and to small businesses we sure can do both given the amounts of money we're spending to get our economy going there's no reason to short change these 2 and i can agree with you on that but the problem is in the factor analysis in small business is really suffer we're saying the n. word that's completely different from these large corporations that have seen their revenues through the roof and those like jeff bezos like or bill gates all of those have seen a really great boost in their business these small business owners are hurting they can't afford a $15.00 minimum wage the government stepping in but they also have a problem is we the taxpayers end up paying for whatever else the government have how can we continue to have this check written when middle class ultimately can't pay that are having a hard time with taxes as it is. scotty i think you've answered your own question

you did it well you know if i were a teacher and you were a student give me a good grade i need more and i need one. here's the story let's go after the people who made a fortune during the pandemic when we had all these people unemployed all these small businesses that we want and need to survive go belly up let's go after those who did really well and say it's time you are ready the richest people in this are to make a contribution so we can give workers a decent minimum wage and save our small businesses taxing them or finding other ways to move the money around is a reasonable way to respond to the exceptional circumstances of an economic crash and a pandemic that we're still living through talk about health care of these guys actually paying out more than their fair share there are actually

a fairly share they're the same guys that contribute to the politician to make things rove once again doctrove always crazy up to you thank you. and google is getting slapped with a new lawsuit this time over privacy violations and all the tech giant has promised to not so user data cares what lawsuit claims they're doing just that. joins us live with more. google actually walking back their statement of protection protecting privacy after this lawsuit service. well it could mean interest despite this new lawsuit alleging that google is selling users' personal information the tech giant continues to deny those claims and get this according to the lawsuit google made more than 147 $1000000000.00 through selling personal information now what they're calling a digital footprint includes things like browsing history interests various locations and this city and that's something google said it would never do and so

this information is believed to be collected through different apps and products such as you tube and google chrome gratian shockey they're not going by the world but a talk show this lawsuit actually isn't a huge surprise to you know we've actually no google has been charge of something simular similar actually in the past. yes about exactly several times and just a few weeks back to show your competition consumer commission actually won a victory over google the court ruled that google had in fact misled consumers in relation to their location data the tech giant lead users to believe if they turned off location history that google would stop collecting location data but that wasn't the case since google was automatically defaulted on other apps take a listen we seem to die as usual since a very clear message to the digital platforms that they have to be upfront with consumers about. what is actually happening with how it's being used

and how consumers could in fact. but it's not clear if the outcome doesn't facts and a clear message back in 21000 the u.s. federal trade commission find google and you tube 170000000 dollars for illegally collecting personal information from children without their parents' consent scotty very troubling and you would think if they spent a lot of if they had to pay out that they would actually stop the practice showing that they're not but speaking of children and the owner of facebook instagram mark zuckerberg has actually come out saying they're working to create an instagram targeted for kids but it sounds like there's already kind of a push back from the public. and it's not just parents u.s. state attorneys general from 40 different states are urging facebook to do away with those plans of creating an instagram for kids letters of social media can be detrimental to the health and well being of children and also pointed out that facebook has failed to protect the welfare of children on its platforms as facebook's most person so that the platform is still in the early stages and that

it will not contain any ads however of the letter calls the attended for kids age 6 through 12 a shameful attempt to exploit and profit off vulnerable people and the interesting thing in all of all of this is that sucker burke himself said in the past that he would not allow his daughter to start a facebook account until she was at least 13 so very very interesting to tell you lots of kids of all ages are already on the go figure thank you dr. thank you. and that's all for today show in the meantime follow me on twitter at scouting and hughes use the hash tag team and be a british show more make sure you download the portable dot to be app thank you for watching if you use but we want to empower you to make your own views on today's news and so next time.
