years of western responsibility between those who solicit the kind of work and need us and those who do it the the the, the with, with surgeons and men, 3 pos spoke, furious running for freedom or on the world, though medic to do all the risks of the virus will need to be affect you have to balance personal choice with what's good for the most people at the end of the day . life is a balance of risk. you can't wrap people up in costs and will while service i will not see, but us says it won't investigate new york slaves handling of cobra in red and the

spot accusations of deliberately on the counting death. we hear from grieving families ah, for most go, thanks for joining us on our team to nations and i, tom don hawkins with beautiful sunrise. welcome to the program. no thousands have run into worldwide against kobe restrictions while people shot slogans for greater freedom. countries are having to cope with the highly infectious delta strain of the virus. the ah.

the biggest rallies were in france where more than 160000 turn out over the weekend . president macro and i was calling people to think of others and relinquish personal liberties. your pedal couldn't be best in existence. no freedom exists without duty. the freedom where i owe nothing to any one does not exist. it's a fiction ally. people seldom seldom my freedom only ends where the freedom of the other begin women, but above all, it is based on a sense of reciprocal duty. what is your freedom worth? if you say to me, i don't want to be vaccinated, but if tomorrow you infect your father, that if that have on file, no glove is set off the new coven cases in france, blank for more than $20000.00 than a single day. he rules of garments, horse, meaning anyone wanting him to go to a crowded public area must present a clean but of health. one across the shuttle in britain. figures of falling but

remain high at around $30000.00 cases per day. are also fears that could increase soon off the england recently removed most of its restriction. however, many duty left freedoms are being respected. as more desi, explain. it would be impossible to sum up what these protests were back in britain when france easily grease his trailer. people from all walks of life threw caution to the wind in a bid to be heard, to cry out. and the one thing that they all wanted is to say, where god, todd, and angry, the

ah, one 1st thought may be that the season very small stage a mass protest in the middle of a pandemic was while the delta vary and so much will, contagious is making the rounds and that is what her st leave is for example, latched onto cooling protesters morons. in relation to yesterday's approaches, i cannot say how absolutely disgusted i was. it broke my heart, millions and millions of people across after doing the right thing. and it just broke my heart, the people had such a disregard that they feel like citizens. what we saw today in sidney is

unfortunately something that we've seen in cities that we all shake our heads, that it's quite clear that you know, sidney isn't immune from morals as well. except of course, it isn't that simple. people are weary. they are fatigued by this pandemic. the bad news, the, the lock down, the oscillation all over the world. in that respect, we're all the same. people yearn for freedoms and equality, or she and we are not against, maxine says the claim and this is not an explanation movement of these. i think in people who want freedom, she has them. i believe that this is an attack on fundamental freedoms in france. there is a law saying medical procedures cannot be forced while since vaccination is being imposed on us one way or another. the people behind the health possible a behaving like nazis will force to get vaccinated. this is called close up. we no

longer have freedom of choices as we miss the basic, which in my opinion is tyrannical and absolute, illegitimate. public rotation moves into anger even rage and even lunacy trialing. but not just the sun go too far way too far. they never consider the other side of the argument, the millions and millions that have been killed, killed by this virus. that is indisputable. and leaders have one overarching goal to prevent millions more from sharing the same fate. and they have decided the personal freedoms over which you are appealing for was that those freedoms can be suspended, ramon to conform the world is facing a 4th wave when we must act. and at the same time, we know the key to this problem. it's not new to the contagious of this delta

variance is forcing us to do more than we must vaccinate root. the bitter truth is that there is no miracle solution, no one that will make everyone happy. no matter how many protest people stage or no matter how many look downs, government implement the very best we can hope for all civility and perseverance. which will probably require protest this to refrain from trying to hang doctors and officials to cease from cooling boot of morons. we discussed that balance between freedoms and risk. society with medical expert people, absolutely furious. democracies are being turned into dictatorships. i think it's really important the government in the west realized that govern with the mandate of the people. and i think keep changing the go key telling people that they cannot have that liberty and they no longer have mandate will. of course,

they are some restrictions of freedom. we all live together in a society and we give up some personal freedoms in order to live together in harmony. not being vaccinated. i think is like driving on the red light because you put not just yourself in danger, but you put other people around you in danger because this is a virus. that is of course, contagious. there will always be new strength of ours. the whole point of the vaccination role was to ensure that we protected the elderly and the phone. but what people are concerned about is that they have no choice in this and the end of the day, it's your body, and what you put into your body should be up to you. personal choice is always the best way. people make the right choice. but we're talking about a contagious virus that is killing people. and so you have to balance personal choice with what's good for the most people at the end of the day. life is

a balance of risk. you can't wrap people up in costing will fall. and at some point we have to say, and i think really the actually we have on last week and a huge number of population. we already even had immunity. i'm afraid i agree with the protest. i never thought in the united kingdom in how's the war you pay, we be off to show papers to go to the cinema, to get to the states and to go to the football. go to the rock me. i mean, i think it's absolutely outrageous now, only that we haven't fascinated enough people all we have will. of course, the people who are protesting they don't like to wear the they don't wish to be vaccinated, and therefore they don't like the passports either. so they would just like to ignore the coding and what it is doing to people around the world, making them sick and causing many people to die. now i have a major problem with that because i don't think that's about liberty. i don't think

it's about personal choice and it's not about freedom. so i'm totally in the positive. but i'm all in favor of people being fascinated the us justice department will not investigate. new york stays handling of the cobra crisis in nursing homes. and our son came and let us, republican lawmakers, it's outraged the families of victims. howard's, your coward, you believe in the money you follow the money trail, your coward, how can you just and there is no apology. i mean to sit there and watch almo, how his tone changed. you know, he seems so sympathetic now because he's off. he's free. i'll tell you about the life the lights have been going on for years. my mother's been tripping and falling in that nursing home for years. my mom, they said she had arthritis, but she kept bawling. so they blamed pain on her shoulder on not right as and it was not arthritis she had at this located shoulder and years earlier. she fell in

the nursing home and she broke her hip. they had to do a hip replacement. this is what i mean by the live, the lives are always there almost thing that he wants to help and not letting me live to. we've been lied to and we're going to continue to live too, because just that's the way that's the way in your function. we have no rights. i feel like i have no rights. i feel like all those $15000.00 plus, they're gone. they're not coming back to we we for bill gently and we have no answers. we still have no answers. we still continue to fight and we're just heart broken. and how can the where's the justice for us? where's the justice for our family? it's nowhere, it's nowhere we will continue to fight. you know, governor andrew cuomo is the keys of hiding the number of corona virus related deaths in nursing homes to make the state look more successful in handling of the pandemic critics. they felonies, forth recovering code, patients from hospitals even if they might have been contagious. the original death

that was revealed in generate were subsequently revised that almost doubled just one month later. now the justice department's decision now not to investigate, has drawn outcry from republicans who claim the bond and ministration is living democrat party governor's off the hook that republicans accused joe biden of being complicit in that scandal. adding new york as deserve offices and accountability. the states governor eventually confirmed the discrepancy but stopped short of issuing an apology, saying instead the lessons had been led by hook key years. 3328 died in the hospital, died in a nursing home. they died. i'm the assistant director of a group of over 5000 family members that lost their parents or loved one, just like i lost my dad in a long term care facility because of cobit governors, knowingly put a disease that was the most jed lead to senior citizens and with senior citizens,

they math dated it and we had no idea this was going on. this was done secretly, and they knowingly killed senior citizens. if this isn't a violation of civil rights, i don't know what is a violation of civil rights fighting? called governor cuomo, the handling of depend on the gold standard. and i called the bite in administration, the gold standard of corruption. there was no excuse for this. and we want to find out why this investigation was stopped. it looks like a case of democrats covering for other democrats. they didn't want to open the pandora's box of what could be underneath the surface. they know that that crimes were committed here. united states is offering a new explanation for why it's withdrawing his troops from gun stone and said it's now focusing on the bigger threats posed by russia and china. the long term risk is china. maybe the,

the near term risk as russia. and we have to make sure that we focus our attention on those america is putting out often every 20 years of war and kind of start not as president bought and claims the us as achieved what is intended to do. and he says there's no need to continue risking american lives a peace activist we spoke to says the us has never left the conflict without paving the way for another one. there is no growing threat or striking threat or threat of any sort from anywhere on earth to the u. s. military, which is an expense almost equal to all the others put together or there was no threat from afghanistan 20 years ago. there is no threat from china today, and there is no threat from russia today. it is all absolutely propaganda. and the thing to do 20 years ago was to use the rule of law to prosecute the crimes, to seek the extradition of criminals, where there was justifiable grounds to pursue it, and not to launch

a war. the u. s. has never in many, many years ended or even scaled back a war without making it grounds for escalating or starting a new war. because to do so would be to challenge the idea of war, which is absolutely taboo. if not in comprehensible in u. s. society. the problem, of course, is that you're dealing with government in possession of huge numbers of nuclear weapons. and so there is actually a short term danger of the long term elimination of life on the planet from these games they're playing. meanwhile, there are reports that the ton of on our deval thing had enough gun translator in may. he was one of thousands of local interpreters. he worked for us forces and now is prosecutor prosecutor. and we spoke to one translator whose identity we were disguised for his own safety. the conservative country where people live

in and type communities that have been interrupted with their information was made by did relatives. regardless of where you moves, you cannot forget all your relatives, save us your information down the community for us as the information down because we're working for the video americans will seen as a betrayal off the country at a time. so you can certainly change your phone number, but that's not going to help. moving houses will not help you because you've been loyal to the lisa country with you know, every single person in that street where you live. so it's quite easy to trace somebody and find them and it's quite easy. you would form the relative student's home, the mosque where they go to your neutral a night later their home. so quite different ways where these chapters have been

threatened. washington has now a lot of ration to support the relocation of. i've got nationals who worked for the us. the 1st batch will include $700.00 translators together with the families. but as the for interpreter point south, many a still left behind on the danger isn't over, especially for those who worked for other nato armies. this one room is only for the all those local employed civilians who worked for the american forces. it doesn't include the metal countries, particularly one of the countries her, the united kingdom, australia to provide safety to their own local employer, civilians, their friends who carry out their duty of care towards stairs early since the west has not only abandoned, the civilians who have put with them,

they have abandoned their fort most the african nation. the nation cited the western countries in this war against terrorism. today, the western empress lutely, the bigger countries, like united states, germany, france, have run away and left the nation alone to face the terrorism filter. come on the program, us parents are less than thrilled as their children thought speaking with english accents after watching the british called to have a pig, a story, and more off of the break. ah, the bike administration tells us the world days is the star,

the choice between democracy and authoritarianism. business make any sense. the balance of power in the world system is moving to multiple r t and is not defined by audiological preferences. when i would show the wrong one, i'll just don't need you to shape out these days because the kid an engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground in all of you out there that regret not being around the soviet union at the time with their collapse. you know, a lot of people understand you about that. lot of interesting things. math time was there writing in the journal. anyway,

they get to have that experience today right here in the good old usa the welcome back to the program. the united states is for many great end. it's come out mission in iraq by the end of the year. some forces will remain in a training and advisory role. murder has had a presence there since the invasion back in 2003, with more details here is also used for on from jack. it has been a violent 18 years since the us invaded the country back in march 2003 it with more than 4500 us troops killed and hundreds of thousands of civilians killed. despite done president george w bush's mission accomplished declaration in may 2003 that fight, as we now know, would rage on even after the fall of saddam hussein. by april 2004 america had over a 144000 troops on the ground in iraq. and the numbers would fluctuate over the

years as us forces would actually fight a bloody campaign against and iraqi insurgency and all kite. now in august 2010, you had done president obama. he declared an end to the 7 year combat mission in iraq. and after the 1st major draw down, just over 47000 troops remained in the area by 2011. that number then would drop to just a few 100 by 2014. when the u. s. joined a rocky and kurdish forces in the fight against isis as of january 20, 212500 us troops remain in iraq right now. both of us and a rocky government agreed back in april to transition to a train and advised mission, meaning that some us forces would remain there on the ground, as has been the case in the past to help train advise and equip rocky forces that are there now the white house reportedly plans to fully end the u. s. mission in the country by the end of this year with president biden saying that they need to fight the battles for the next 20 years. not the last 20 years. take

a listen more in iraq, b as a dealing with not just to be available to continue to train to assist to help and to deal with isis as is as arrived. but we are not going to be brought in here in a competition. and as we know, the united states and their role is in the as far as us interventionism and other countries focusing on the future isn't so easy be as it seems like the past always ends up coming back. especially when in regards to the middle east and the united states now in iraq, isis despite being severely weekend continues to rear its ugly head, carrying out bombings and attacks on both security forces and civilians in the area . both of us in israel continue to view iranian back to militias. they're in iraq as a threat to regional stability. but here's the thing, andrew, while president biden is focusing now, as he says on the future,

looking at other potential wars, namely in the pacific, namely in regards to china, it always does seem that those wars that the u. s. fall in the middle east. always comes back to haunt them. reporting from washington fair in front, zach or t. well, it's close live 2 journals, horn historian, african american studies. thanks for joining a 2nd time in the program today. this move comes less than 3 months before rocks parliamentary elections as pro rating groups, pressing the prominence to get us troops out. do you think the timing of this announcement a significant it certainly significant. well, what i mean is that just a few weeks ago, mister biden announced that all us forces would be removed from afghanistan by september. 11th, 2021. now were told that there will be no longer a combat mission in iraq that the us forces will be used for training. however,

i think you should take that assertion with a grain of salt because we recognize that supposedly the us forces will be training a rocky forces to confront isis, the so called a long state. but we also know that united states, despite this of lead pivot to china, still has a wrong in the crosshairs. and i think you can expect continued confrontations between us forces and us back forces. and iranian forces and running back forces. and certainly the elections that you mentioned are relevant in that regard, but i don't think it should be a rocky electorate. they recognize that the us invasion of 2003 on a false premise of searching for weapons of mass destruction has been a catastrophe for their country, leading to the deaths of hundreds of thousands. and the rise of the after mentioned islamic state, which did not exist before the us invasion and in terms of barton's place to

end the so called forever was in. and i've got to the on an iraq. do you think this fixing we're keeping that pledge? do you think the americans could keep this comma roll just under some sort of different guys? well, quite frankly, i don't really take this pledge to into for ever war seriously. take of denison, for example. despite the united states and let's pull out of afghanistan, there will still be a sizable u. s embassy in cobble. and you should not rule out the possibility that the united states will find some on talk with the color bon searching the power in trouble. because of dennis then once again, borders ron, it's not for distance from china. it's not for a distance from russia either. and i think you should expect some sort of working arrangement, i'm afraid to say between the united states authorities and the now reviled tele

bon in up canister. the tunnel bands already replacing us troops as they withdraw from us going on. they made advances days, quite big classes between government forces group. do you think there is a fear, a possibility in washington? somebody else could fill that vacuum in iraq as we've, you mentioned with islamic state for example. well, if the song state does filled that vacuum, that will be certainly due to the fact that the us invasion of 2003 created fertile conditions for the rise of the so called islamic state. i think one of your previous guest mentioned that inevitably one u. s. catastrophe leads to another. and you certainly see that in iraq where the overthrow of saddam hussein and the expenditure of blood and treasure and iraq only

led to the rise of the islamic state. just like you can say that the assassination of fuel money the, are running a military leader by mr. trump, has not provided some sort of holiday for us forces in iraq. because what that is meant is that mr. sula, money successor does not have a firm grip on the running and back forth was in iraq, as mr. sula money did. so, the united states just stumbles from one catastrophe. once we ask, go to another 01 historian and african american study. thanks for joining us. in the program, good to have you on today. on a lighter notes, a certain british cartoon peg has been causing a bit of trouble across the pon, american parents. i've been shocked to find kids using british phrases and even speaking with english accents that soften the children, watched hours of peppa pig during locked out the

scene. you like the watching not to pick has you told me i started calling you mommy all going to go to the lou instead of the bathroom. you might ask why? well that's thanks to peppa pig kids across the states have apparently started speaking with a british accent after binge watching the program during lockdown. who would have thought that this little preschool picky could be set influential? my daughter has what i would call the peppa pig, british accent. how i my 5 year old niece in new york city had an american accent before the pandemic. now she has a posh english accent after spending a year at home watching peppa pig. oh yes, my daughter commonly uses words and phrases like said nath petrol. can i have a go tetra? and for a christmas i had to put out

a freaking mince pie for father christmas, or as we call him here in the states santa american kids watch. so much peppa pig during a pandemic that they developed british accents and started regularly using british words like holiday instead of vacation. confusing their parents? what happened next call to be your child wakes up and makes a nice cup of tea in the morning for now. the pepper effect is just dominating young voices with kids adopting unusual to america vocabulary and a british accent. and this takes claim to fame is and she's the 2nd moses of on cartoon and us household to find spongebob weapons. but he's not just parents struggling to key pop us politicians seem to think that this piggy pandemic is another british takeover we thought was. so this wouldn't happen. oh, i remember the great battle over the british tongue. this is not everyone things. so that's a key event in the history books. we fought wars over english accents. i'll never

forget the battle over the que versus line controversy that turned into a world war when the color versus color atrocities were exposed. so kids wouldn't learn british pronunciations. i'm pretty sure the revolutionary war was about something slightly more than that. so it was so bad to saying you'll please and thank you. i think it's rather lovely, but i would, i wouldn't time being in the homeland of peppa pig news for this. i was doing this again, it's for the nice the for all of you out there that regret not being around the soviet union at the time with their collapse. you know, a lot of people uninstalled you about that lot of interesting things. math time was there writing in the journal. anyway, they get to have that experience today right here in the good old usa.
