in a position to adequately protect that information, the u. s. is not only approved lists, but all facebook use a data passes through the country. in an email, the company said it always takes data protection seriously. we updated our page and says, supplement and clarify the responsibility of facebook and website operators at the end of 2019 questions related to the transparency of data process. and we're taking into consideration into that. lor, expert on social media solicitor cohen says the way that she was sold in the past by brussels was to ignore it. is nothing due about, about the inability almost of, of, of facebook, but boil for example, to comply with you previously low. it is just impossible for them to do, but so far, your governments have been turning a blind eye, a g d p. r is, is based on, on a single way of handling personal data across the board.

in the united states. on the other hand, the, the laws of privacy are, are left largely to individual states. to legislation, there is no kind of broad view taken is to privacy law. in fact, there isn't really a right to privacy in the united states. it's just, it's just goes perhaps against again, that constitution. what seeing the hawks coming away in a few by which time for you is in the us, it's boom bust. we're backing off on our with the legend. ah, ah! after the fight in some european leaders such as germany's merkel and frances macro

called for renew dialogue with russia, the baltic states in poland said not so fast. thus there is no consensus within the e u on how to move forward. the ball remains in brussels court the the, the, the the, the me, good evening hall quarters. a few short month after americans rejoiced to hear that president joe biden would finally withdraw troops from ghana stand by september 11th. it appears to us as rationing up aggression in other parts of the middle east . iraq and syria. the us says it's carried out air strikes against the rock bottom back malicious close to the rock theory, a border, according to us officials,

the attacks were done in response to drone attacks on us forces in iraq, protecting us personnel and iraq remains a top priority for president bite. and that makes sense. but these airstrikes don't starve to stabilize already shaky region. if anything, they only escalate tension and iraq militia alliance. a popular mobilization forces or p. m. f said for members of one faction were killed and are already threatening retaliation. us drone attacks are anything new, but they are creating persistent problems, important fault into a wound. there's also this tidbit, the p. m. f, a coalition of predominantly iranian back, she a malicious creed in 2014, to fight these law. mac state argues that the u. s. claims of why the nation attacked just aren't true. the p m f isn't the only group pushing back against the us. lead airstrikes in iraq, military spokesman, also condemned strikes on twitter,

calling them quote, a blink and unacceptable violation of iraqi sovereignty. any rocky national security. the u. s. for nearly 3 decades has saying the song of the importance of stability in the middle east, security across the region, fighting terrorism and ending the spread of victorian violence. but it appears with the recent air strikes the u. s. as only advancing the tensions, an exponentially growing crises in air strikes are often indiscriminate in the death toll, children innocent civilians, anyone can easily become collateral damage for a nation that police of the globe and advancing human rights. america sure doesn't seem to have a problem. dropping bombs and violating international law. questions about the us have authority to strike rotella tory efforts increase the time. we start watching the hawks. if you want to know what's going on, a city in your street, you want to rush this letter still. you would rather be always the roy

gross, right? math grade or heart, the late they make exceptions, manipulate so much put these weapons. so hope we know what they're ready for watching the hawks i'm myisha cross. joining me now is michael maloof, former pentagon official. good to have you, michael. thank you michael. the u. s. reasoning for the air strikes doesn't really seem to jive but what we're hearing from iraq military leaders or the iranian foreign ministry. do you think the u. s. attacks were in self defense that they claim and why now just a few short months before the troop withdrawal from again saying why is the u. s. dropping bombs in iraq and syria? well, the, the claim by the, by the defense department was that us troops in your bill were, were attacked by p. m. f forces. they've admitted it and they have a, they have

a reason why is that they want all foreign forces out of iraq. now the united states is in iraq, unlike serial at the invitation of the iraqi government. but for the prime minister of iraq, it's a very, very touchy subject because he wants to us there on the one hand to train. but on the other hand, he's under extraordinary pressure on the p on the p. s. p m f. the, the she elements there too. because we've now he's, he has sheer. so that make complicates his life even further. now, the way the united states went about this defensive move, if you can call it that, is inconsistent with hot pursuit or a retaliatory initiative. there's been a number of attacks by the p. m. s on us assets in iraq,

but we've only responded maybe to 2 of them. so the question is, why, why are you picking and choosing why just, i mean, why, why are you just got going here? and there just to upset thing, especially coming on the eve of getting iranian back forces that at a time when you're trying to deal with iran on the, to, to rejoin the j. c. p. away or the iranian nuclear agreement. and they are under many of the p m. f elements. shear elements are under iranian influence. many of them are also sheer or iraqi. she'll separate from iran. so that's what complicates things even more. but we like to put a generalized label and just say, are all iranian controls, whether not. and one of the target, and it's a, it is, this is, this is why in syria i was going to say is that we, we went after their assets and syria where they think the drugs were being produced

. well that syria has, doesn't want us forces and in syria either. and assad has an agreement with the p. m. s. forces to allow them to transit, to transit into back and forth between iraq and syria. so this is if you're going to hit periodically, it's going to be, it raises questions about just how sincere are you about retaliation? and why did we do that? do it this, this justice last time. and i don't know the answer to that. the next thing i was going to ask you kinda lead into it a little bit, was about the targeting of the facility. so one of the targeting facilities, the u. s. bombed in the strikes was known to house as well, law and other iran back groups. us secretary of state, anthony blink, and the action was necessary and deliberate to limit the risk of an escalation. is that enough to justify the attack or in your view? is this a violation of international law? well, it gets back big. well, no, there is. so there is an element of hot pursuit,

if you can, but you have to do it. and that's internationally recognize you have to do it though, right after the attack, we waited days and days. in some cases, we didn't react at all to do certain attacks. and the reason why they went into syria is that because that's where many of the p m. f. assets for drones are housed now might be easier if we put them a system surrounding us base is called the for system. and it zaps swarms of drones, which i understand is what they're beginning to get into. and as is a swarm attack, and that, that is many launching of many drones at once. and there is a system that the army has now called for. and that system can knock out tens, tens of, of, of drones at once and through through electro,

electromagnetic pulse michael, i have heard and seen some reports as well about the role of possibly the full amount of killing in terms of our congregation here. how do you feel that plays into the narrative and what are the longer term implications of that assassination? well, the implications are tremendous. number one, solo money was pretty open about the fact that he was going to be going into iraq to work out a negotiation between the saudis and the, and the iranians for a peace deal. and that just seem to upset the trump administration a very, very much because they, they did not want to see saudi arabia doing, having, making peace, if you will, with, with iran on the one hand. but on the other hand, get really upset the, the whole equation there in the balance in terms of the p, m,

f. they, it basically was a rally and cray, along with their own commander who was also killed along with some money. but sold money was the father of the strategy to use proxies in, in these countries to deal with isis. and iran is directly threatened by isis. and there been quite a number of attacks by isis even into iran. and the way they were coming over from iraq and syria, iran had every reason to want to lay the groundwork to try and stem them before and help them before they would reach iran proper. and so, so they're doing, they're, they're, they're doing what we would do if we were, we're going to be trying to stop an aggressor and we do, we,

we basically back, i'll kind of, we back isis. and in, when it suits us and, and each side has its own proxies and this is the problem that we're experiencing. and you alluded to this a little bit earlier, but monday strikes come as iran and other world powers are trying to bring life back into the 2015 nuclear deal that president trump banded. in addition to adding extreme sanctions by wants to rejoin that nuclear deal. do the recent air strikes make that deal more tenuous and how do you see this playing out? well, in one sense it does because the iranians feel that the united states is in the iraq, m, syria to really go after, really to go after them. not to stop isis so much because of what they perceive to be the support that the united states is giving to the, the sunni elements and isis. and there are cities,

iran is she'll. so it's, it's clear that and they also know that the united states doesn't live up to its agreements. so that's why they're really, there's really trepidation now. and the, and the head of the iranian parliament is put up can a pre condition that we got to get assurance on the, by the administration. that is not going to be a reversal of things. should the administration us administration changed by the ministration. can't make that guarantee unless you go into treaty, but that's not popular even in the u. s. congress. so if you try to make the j. c p o a, a treaty, it's not going to fly inside. it will not approve it. and so green was just the next step down, but agreements can easily be broken as we discovered in 2018. you couldn't be more correct, their secretary if they state it. and the blinking recently announced that the u. s . will provide more than $436000000.00 an additional humanitarian assistance to

syrians and the communities that host them. what are your thoughts on this somewhat of a relief package? well that it's how the, it's who they want to provide it to. and that is primarily to syrians who are in the inlet problems area and to bring in humanitarian assistance. they want to do it without approval of the syrian government. and the russians who control the border area, where this assistance would be coming in has not agreed to that. so the, the whole issue of, of, of trying to work something out. i absence the, the syrian government in whose country they, these refugees would reside, is, is problematic, and the united states continues to want to oust aside. in fact, it was during the summer with and biden were asked by not to try to remove forcibly. and there was no response. so that's not

a good science. so that suggest to me that they may attempt to, to, to do that even though a 3rd was just re elected by his own countrymen. whether or not you agree that it was a fixed election. it is neither here nor there because he's, it's, it's a fact that he's now the, the, the, the sitting present and he's recognized internationally as the president. so it's, this is what complicates things and why these issues continuously go on. biden has previous to be in a president when, when he was, senator biden had a concept about syria in which he sought to partition syria into 3 parts. and i think that that's the direction that he wants to head. and if he has to put in more troops into syria, in order to reinforce that, and that, that would not bode well. i'm and he's not going to get any agree on the russian or even the turks for them. like i'm a luke,

what have their own agenda. we're definitely going to have to have you back on to discuss this more. there's so much that we need to talk about and unpack here running out of time, but thank you so much for joining us. my pleasure. thank you. as we go to break, remember that you can also start watching the hawk on demand to the brand new portable p be available on all platform. coming up, we'll discuss the newly release you in report, calling for global response to systemic racism. stay tuned to watching the ha ah, is your media a reflection of reality? in a world transformed? what will make you feel safer?

tyson lation, whole community. are you going the right way or are you being somewhere? direct? what is true? what is faith? in the world corrupted, you need to defend the join us in the depths will remain in the shallows. ah, driven by shaped by those in me dares thing. we dare to ask me.

ah, the me, the death of george floyd became a rallying cry for black lives matter. human and civil rights activists in america and abroad, derek sharman, the officer who killed george floyd in a video scene round. the world was sentenced to 22.5 years in prison. 22 and a half years. though that senate makes a difference. it hasn't signaled true reforms or any real changes in policing every day in america. blacks are one step away from another. george floyd, with no end in sight. the george boy, justice and policing act faces an uphill battle in congress. and black still aren't seeing their civil rights on it across the country as voters, suppression, health disparities, and housing in equity continue to threaten progress. so that in the united nations

recently made a head turning announcement. in a report released monday, un high commissioner for human rights, michelle bash lead urge countries to adopt transformative agendas to systemic racism. the report couldn't find a single state that had fully reckoned with the past or comprehensively accounted for the impacts of the lives of people of african descent today, hugh reparations sorta un acknowledgement of systemic racism in need of a systemic response is important. the report goes on to showcase the persistent and consistent be humanize ation of people of african descent and the role racial discrimination, inequality, and violence has taken on their daily lives. this report can provide insights into the necessary policy changes. the report is important because it features analysis, 190 deaths at the hands of law enforcement speaks to similarities and legal system discrimination against blacks across multiple countries in amplified systemic

racism. global action is a fairly new coal, as it relates to remedies for racial injustice. but it's a long time coming. well the you in report matter and how will country create transformative reparations? here to tell us all about it is gerald horn professor of history at the university of houston. good to see you, darrell. and welcome to the show inviting me. absolutely. thank you. the united nations human rights council is urging a global response that includes operations to quote, make amends for racism, against people of african descent. this is a really big deal in america. we know the george floyd murder, smart world, right, protest and elevated cost reforms. but to see that you in called the world to respond to racism is huge. what are the implications and why now? it's very significant. the, those of us who study history recognize that it has been international pressure. in

the 1st instance, that has led to progress from black people in particular, since we arrived unwillingly on the shores. what i mean is, if you look at the abolition of slavery as that was driven, not only by courses here in the states, why people in the 1st instance, but also by pressure from british abolitionists also by pressure from abolitionists and hating. if you look at the retreat of jim crow, u. s. a party, beginning of the 1950. it's no accident. as historians have begun to tell us that this takes place in the context of a cold war. and the united states has difficulty winning hearts and minds in its logical contestation with the socialist count, as long as people of african descent are treated so atrociously, particularly when united states feels they need to compete for resources in an africa that searching towards independence. so that also created a dynamic and international in a global dynamic in favor of progressive change. and now we have this stunning

report from the human rights council, which i dare say will have a similar ill port, although it will be difficult to track. although i'm confident that it will have significant un packets, former global and international initiatives, and after horn in a statement, the un high commissioner for human rights called on quote, states to stop denying and start dismantling racism. that's a tall order. here in the u. s. recognition of pacific racism and even simply saying black lives matter. if it's anti democratic or unpatriotic, what steps are necessary to dismantle racism and is it even possible because it seems that racism is so deeply rooted. 8 in the psyche across the globe, is it possible to eradicate it? is possible, but it's going to be a difficult struggle. i'm sure that in $1864.00, many people might have found the difficult to believe that slavery would be abolished during the height of jim pro. i'm sure the many people found that

difficult to believe that formal jim crow, formal us segregation whatever be a wrote it. and certainly we're taking steps towards helping to attain the noble aim of this united nations human rights council report. i'm speaking of events that are taking place as we speak, for example, i think it's very important that we're seeking to tear down these monuments to confederate war. he rose, particularly in dixie. i'm think it's very important that we're beginning to move statues and other memorials to confederate war heroes who are actually traitors that, believe it or not, are still ensconced in the u. s. capital. i think it's important that we're fighting back against voters oppression. we're fighting back against the demagogy that 6 the targets so called critical race theory, although many of those were targeting or not know what it means would not recognize it, smack them in the face. so these are all in simple steps,

but we have to realize that a trip of a 1000 miles begins one step. and we have begun that long uphill journey as we speak. that was a barrier way to put things men we, i think we do have to remember that it's, it's, it's not a re take the while to get to some of the reforms that we seek, that you will report found that police use of racial profiling. and excessive force, it's systemic. it's not just singular to america, obviously happening in north america, but in europe and latin america as well at very high levels, are policing reforms moving forward in europe in latin america. we know at the federal level here in the us, they seem to be dying on the bind. it's a very slow process, i'm afraid to say. and i think that we should reasonably infer that this attack on the rights of black people, which is not unique to united states of america. it certainly and demick and brazil

to a degree. you can also find it in one in paris and lisbon in particular. and what goes slight, all have in common, is that all of those capital, all of these countries benefited from the african slave tree and benefit from the slave and of africa. and i think that if you read the report carefully, it's difficult to walk away without thinking that there has not been a reckoning with the african slave trade. there has not been a kind of truth commission that help soon plumb the depths of how and why these european countries not to mention countries in the america, such as on the united states, benefits so handsomely from the free labor of black people. and even to this very day, one of the problems we face is that black people are still treated as if slavery were still around. and i think that has something to do with the fact that there have not been a reckoning,

has not been an accounting. and until we have that reckoning, and so we have that accounting, which the human rights council is calling for. i'm afraid to say, will always be facing a speed up your client. the un human rights council also argued that reparations can't just stop at money, but also need to have guarantees that prevent future injustice. do you agree and what do those care guarantees look like in your view? well, i think that those guarantees look like education. in fact, we've had some progress on the education of what i'm sure to know about the story of georgetown university, which in the 19th century going the battle davis waivery of sold and lay people in order to keep that university afloat. now, it's a magnificent, well endowed institution, and it is decided to embark on its own program of reparations, by guaranteeing scholarships to some of the, the sentence of the late people that were full,

who certainly education needs to be taken into account. i think we also need to talk about building up watkins petitions, particularly historically black colleges and universities like howard university in washington, dc for example. so i think that there is no dirt of potential remedy in terms of reparation. what is missing in the political will and last way, real quick before i have to let you go, doctor, how do you see that being employed by the united states? i read that they are going to be some conversations, obviously with president by and but what do you think is going to come out of it? well, certainly the by demonstration needs to be pressured. at times we get the impression that the white administration recognizes that his 2020 victory was definitely dependent upon a massive turn out by black boat. but in 2021, we're not necessarily see the fruits of our labor. certainly we need to weigh this

united nations in rights, kelsey, and the court underneath the nose of mister biden. and his chief of staff not to mention b, u. s. senate and didn't talk to them because they need to be pressure because i think you know, the lessons of history is ridiculous. the 19th century evolution is adjusted. that power can see nothing without the man. it never has been and never one of my favorite quote and dr. more and it was great to have you. we're definitely going to have to have you back. you're dropping so many tibbetts today. audius' needs to hear it. thanks for joining us. and that is our show for you today. i'm myisha cross. remember, keep watching those hawks and have a great day and night everyone. i me, i provision on my back on i was like, oh well,

no. okay. your trucking. yeah. so you'll have a lost his bus because i just got then you just got to go. we will be on monday, my thought, my daughter so i said, you know what? it was you pull up. i got some your math almost. what did, i'm already, whatever sped up i read me just go to me. i mean, it was, i don't know, we're going to go when i went up and i really he was, i just don't get on to the dentist visit to santo that one of this, but i was like, i say this is what it is i'm we just came on my side and we can go to kind of home i just spoke with him yes at westray, and he thought of the thing i was calling with you and your team, samantha katie. yeah, my thought, a lot of problem, we just gotta go to the the

digging deeper into kind of those dark pulses over 180 unmarked graves of indigenous people are on earth near a formal residential school. following to someone, a discoveries in recent weeks, we speak to the leader of an invasion of community. it was a genocide. the whole point of the residential school was to take the indian out of the indian war boarding, including 2 children and recovered it. besides the collapse residential building in miami, bringing the vessel to 18 comes, it says growing that nearby buildings could also be compromised. and the red cross says it's ready to deliver this important jobs. the conflict areas around the world. so the local authorities approved to show.
