oh, the shame that spells out but not how some empowers have come to view a pair. a suburb is up in arms over the construction of a wall designed in theory to keep drug addicts out, say it in humane and in practice only make matters worse. it really feels like a zombie apocalypse movie. this last week we have a soul after a soul that we put them to one side like animal. it's a long western tradition segregate new canadian military troops saw the pandemic as a chance to test propaganda on citizens. according to a troubling army report and us senators rose to facebook after luke internal

research project. the company, the instagram platform, could harm children's well bringing. ah, our broadcast live direct from our studios in moscow. this is large international. i'm sean thomas. certainly glad to have you with us. i know anger is mounting in a paris suburb over the construction of a wall designed to keep drug users out. but instead of solving that problem residency, it's actually made matters worse and has turned the area into a living hell or to charlotte. pinsky takes up the story for us. the writing is on the wall quite literally the wall of shame. that's what the graffiti spells out, and that's how some encourage have come to view this. this barrier has been built

to hide one of the cities, ugliest problems, crack addiction for months, drug use is turned hawk. it will in the 19th home, decent paris and the surrounding streets into a living nightmare. locals. now they have been moved to around this location. meaning that the problem haven't been tackled. it's just a new set of glucose to deal with what it really feels like a zombie apocalypse movie. last week we have faced assault after assault theft after 1st my neighbor is still in hospital at the trying to catch a drug addict who robbed him. he was beaten. noel says, this neighborhood has long suffered problems, but this addition of more than a 100 drug addicts on the doorstep only creates greater insecurity. that's been done yet. we are almost a breaking point. there's a feeling of nervousness violent. we think about it every day,

even after all myself, with protective equipment. gusts, a taser or a but why? because just last weekend, there were 5 fight that happened on friday then saturday and sunday. they just didn't stop. we have got to x who come here every day because they need crack. this war was hastily built with the authority saying that it was necessary to protect glucose from the drug uses. but it happened to walking around in that neighborhood . we have seen everything from spilling over into commercial areas and drug deals taking place in the, in the metro is mounting here, locals, all protesting against the fact that they have been on the doorstep. just know who left. i'm angry because these people are being treated like animals. we, country, people like that. we can just move them to place further away from various well known color. why are we angry today?

because of everything that's happened. we always been attacked. it's getting worse and worse. women are being assaulted, threatened, we must find a solution to the problem and we find that counselors, there you go. we have to do something along the instead of relocating people to good neighborhood where moving them to areas that already have difficulty was that they just shifted the problem a few blocks away. instead of building the infrastructure to accommodate the people . it's an acceptable bill collector. we are angry because instead of taking care of the deprived migrate population, we put them to one side like animal. it's a long western tradition to segregate new comments, to put problems, to one side instead of folding them. it's nothing new. the fascist were very good at it said crazy, it's under medical supervision, have been approved by the government. but every time a location is suggested, every physician from people who live with me buying some lightening the plan

is putting in the menu and schools and the injury and children cool is some things that are like a logical and also the psychiatric needs. i think there are about a 130 and a 150 men and some women living in a kind of shanty town on the outskirts of paris in totally unsanitary conditions. they need social and health care, not this type of security response. they had already been about, and this is the major play of insecurity. what's really good thing one about how to solve a new canadian army report has revealed that military bosses saw the pandemic as a quote unique opportunity to test propaganda on the population. the plans weren't implemented, but disturbingly army chief thought they didn't need approval from higher

authorities. several officials at military headquarters warranty that such policies are not usually deployed against civilians domestically and had the potential to be abused by targeting government critics. the campaign called for shaping and exploiting information. c, j o. c. claim. the information operation scheme with needed the head of civil disobedience by canadians during the karone of ours pandemic, and to bolster government messages about the pandemic. this project which attempted to shape and exploit information was launched in april of 2020 without the request or even permission of cabinet. and even though then, chief of the defense staff, general john vance, gave verbal orders to shut down the initiative that very same month report show that these influence activities as the military likes to call them, continued for 6 more months until events finally submitted a written edict in november and now you might be wondering how such authoritarian

and frankly even mackey value and projects could be allowed to take place in a supposedly liberal country like canada, is specially since canadian law states that the military is specifically forbidden from using psychological operations or a cy, ups within canada, unless given explicit permission from the federal government? well, it turns out that the answer there is essentially creative semantics. you see, according to the department of national defense, cy ops are only used abroad and they are, of course, completely and totally different from what it is. instead choosing to refer to as information, operation, campaigns. sure. and as terrible as all this sounds. the sad truth is that this isn't even the 1st time that the canadian military has said it sites upon fellow law abiding canadians. another initiative, this one spearheaded by intelligence officers focused on gathering data from the social media profiles of canadians, is included collecting data on b,

l. m. leaders and collecting posts that discussed public opinion of ontario premier doug ford. all of this is specially when combined with the increasingly strict code protocols put in place by the federal and provincial gulf meant pains a grim picture for canada's future. it seems increasingly like canadians are finding themselves in a position where their own government and yes, even their own military views them as the enemy and a group to be controlled. mysterious blaze has broken out and stood guard in south west germany, in which 10 buses parked at a depot called fire. emergency helicopters more than 30 firefighting vehicles, and 150 personnel were deployed to the scene where there were explosions as well. tires blew up as they burned. it's still not known what caused the fire, but the situation is now under control. there have been no reports of any injuries . natural gas prices have hit

a new high in europe now reaching $1150.00 per 1000. cubic meters prices have been skyrocketing since the beginning of september, and it's not only gas which europe desperately needs the continent has also been struggling to reduce its consumption of coal in line with policies aimed at limiting greenhouse gases. but as r t is dimitri pollock, explains those green energy ambitions might have to take a step back for just a bit. environmentalism is all the rage right now, but mother nature doesn't always play ball. winter comes whether there's wind enough or not to power the turbines and where it's freezing cold. no one actually cares if gas and coal aren't green. energy prices are skyrocketing in europe and environmental initiatives seem to only be making things worse. the fact that wind farms are useless when there's no wind is a big problem for the likes of the u. k, for example, where they're supposed to produce around 20 percent of the countries energy supply

. so it's back to dirtier forms of power. less than that, we need to learn that fossil fuels are still needed in the energy mix in order to back up renewable energy. because if we continue to remove all the bases capacity that is coming from sources like gas called a nuclear, without having something that is like, come back up the intermittency of wind and solar. then we will be having tight situations of the one we are experiencing at the moment. take the current unreliability of wind and solar, add the increased demand and low supply of coal and natural gas throughout the continent, plus all the carbon permit fees for coal producers. and you've got a perfect recipe for energy crisis, but somehow no one saw it coming. not a good start for what the likes of ursula andre lines. they will be defining era for environmentalism. it's just a pleasure to welcome you to this conference on the make

a break decade for climate action. the next 10 years might be a turning point. first and foremost, for global c o. 2 emissions. good luck with that 3 month after she said that and you lawmakers are already extending subsidies for fossil fuel gas until 2027. all the while the u energy commission insist that it had nothing to do with the crisis . the current increase in energy prices has little to do with our climate policies and much what to do with our dependence on volatile foreign fossil fuels. right. and the price of coal permits which have more than doubled over the past 2 years. probably also had nothing to do with the current situation, but higher coal prices and a shortage of supply isn't justice acting europe right now. china is also having a hard time with the whole environmentally friendly approach to energy. large sectors of the country's industry have been crippled by energy shortages and regions are being forced to ration power with chinese governments calling for an

increase in coal imports. and we're not even into winter yet. going green is trendy and it sounds nice, but in reality we're a long way off before it's actually practical until then it seems non green energy sources are here to stay, trying to limit them without thinking of the consequences. it's simply a recipe for disaster. at the moment we have to state that physically, it's impossible to get rid of all the fossil fuel sources for energy production. if we did not get now nuclear power production and a little later on and achieve production from coal, we could maybe use less natural gas. but natural gas seems to be the major backbone. so usually for promot providing a stable energy production with natural gas,

you can quickly lift up energy production levels when the wind stops blowing. when it's dark, the white house has admitted it is teaming up with the you to stop china from getting access to high tech know how u. s. commerce chief made the revelation at a top trans atlantic tech trade. at summit, we had to work with our european allies to deny china the most advanced technology, so that they can't catch up in critical areas. at the talks gina ryan mando branded brussels, an indispensable partner, the meeting, also focused on artificial intelligence, climate solutions, and development of 6 g networks. but it has not gone as smoothly as those u. s. comments suggest with friends among others, opposing a statement about the some of the goals. paris is still bristling over the new august tact between the u. s. u. k. and australia, which saw cambra scrap

a $40000000000.00 submarine deal with france. this calls, it all gets a stab in the back raising fears about the future of the western alliance. and political expert in china told us that europe simply cannot trust washington. you're looking really being cheated by the us many times. if you're looking countries on like for laid off and then the us government duncan, the us cannot last week, we will enter the yellow state are also different degrees. i believe that you will have being the american lives in the us open to maintain independent political, economic, and even military. actually, big companies in europe can not fully call freedom and china the world largest condenser, much or if we can talk

a lot for that. if they don't fail to try and those companies, if you look at the trade data, if you will know that using the pen that you're trying to train when you're looking countries moving rapidly and they have increased by 20 percent and even the 30 percent. so yield nice china market and trying to prove that was 130 judges in the u. s. are being criticized for taking part in cases in which they were their families stood to financially gain. the wall street journal reports that 131 judges failed to recuse themselves from 685 cases since 2010 involving firms in which they or their family held shares. and 2 thirds of the cases ended up being ruled in their favor. the judges or relatives held stock's worth more than $15000.00 in companies involved in $173.00 cases,

and more than $50000.00 worth in $21.00 cases. the report also found that in $61.00 instances, the stocks were treated during court proceedings. us courts administrative officers . it is looking into the allegations. the wall street journal's report on instances where conflicts inadvertently were not identified before a key was results or transfer dis troubling. and the administrative office is carefully reviewing the matter. i can say with absolute certainty that i never made any decision in favor of a company because i own stuck and was invested in that company. i dropped the ball . thank you for helping me stay on my toes the way i'm supposed to. i just blew it . i regret any question that i've created the appearance of impropriety or a conflict of interest. the newspaper highlights a new york judge who handled a pollution claim against oil giant exxon mobil while owning ex on stock. and

colorado judge, who oversaw the case against nbc universal owner, comcast, in which they to own shares. a judge is failure to step aside when there is a financial conflict of interest violates federal law. and this has sparked if furious public reaction. will they go to jail a being teached? if not, then it's just another story of entitlement with no repercussions and prosecutions . we expect judges to be fair and impartial. you now see why americans didn't trust the resulting corruption in every level with no consequences. tell me how is that, okay? and nothing will happen. the whole problem. look at the senators who benefit from star traits, nothing out to them. different rules for different people. lawyer and new york politician marnie hall asa says the situation underlines the reality of america's supposedly eagle impartiality. it would have been one case that would have been fine, but instead it was a 131 judges and nearly 700 cases. so this really proves to be, you know,

a pervasive and systemic disregard for the choose a law. and it really illustrates how the judges, the federal bench, the whole system as an institution, you know, is, is impartial and biased. i think this is just the tip of the iceberg. i think all these judges have been exploring this for choose all law for a long, long time when the public gets a win that the system is corrupt and you know, did the judiciary is not fair and impartial? i think that that really pushes the public to put pressure on our elected officials to come up with structures that demand impartiality us senators have grilled a facebook head of safety over the effect. the company's services have on young people's mental health. it comes after leaked internal research suggested it's

photo sharing platform. instagram harms, children's well being, as art is, kill him up and reports. at this point, we see facebook once again in the hot seat of the us senate this time because a report showing that a facebook apparently worked to conceal information about the harmful effects on the mental well being of teenagers caused by instagram. it has weaponized childhood vulnerability against children themselves is chosen growth over children's mental l, and well being, greed over preventing the suffering of children. this seems to be a recurring theme with this company. do everything and anything to mould the world into your own image. for your own profit, without any regard for any harm that is going to be done because your focus is own your pocket book. facebook is just like big tobacco pushing,

a product that they know is harmful to the health of young people, pushing it to them early. also, facebook can make money. i g stands for instagram, but it also stands by insta, greed. facebook had to postpone the rolling out of their new app directed at children under the age of $1313.00 and younger because of a wide spread outrage and the barrage of criticism that facebook was facing after the wall street journal revealed that facebook was well aware of the harmful effects caused by instagram. we make body image issues worse for one in 3 teen girls, teens blame instagram for increases in rate of inside ski and depression. according to what is being reported among teenagers who are suicidal and contemplating

killing themselves. 13 percent in britain and 6 percent in the united states actually listed instagram as having been a factor in their desire to commit suicide. now the tech giant has, you know, a basically accused of these reports of, quote, cherry picking facts on the eve of today's hearing. they did release 2 of their own internal reports, but many are looking on with disappointment because this is certainly not the 1st time that facebook has been caught suppressing data and channeling information in their own way. the research that we've seen is using social apps to connect other people can have positive mental health benefits. many people across the political spectrum in the united states, democrats, republicans, it seems like a consensus in the united states that there should be some better regulation of big tack and social media on that. the harmful effects of social media should be controlled. but despite there being such widespread feeling and they're being

ongoing hearings on capital hill, there doesn't seem to be real legislative agenda being rolled out there don't seem to be real legislation being put into the work to limit the power of big tack and the social media monopolies despite some colorful hearings like we just heard from on this let's go live to arvin rom, former vice chair of the u. s. libertarian national committee. thanks for being with us here in our international. thanks for having me on. so do you expect any real action from us lawmakers over all of this the, the 1st step and the most basic step actually isn't even legislation. it's for the government, the government agencies elected representative the people who are supposed to have the interest of the american people at heart is for them to voluntarily leave facebook. that means government agencies, federal, state, local, should not be posting jobs or information on facebook or any of facebook other met

or any of its others subsidiaries. they should be actively avoiding facebook because what they're doing right now is actually increasing demand for facebook by themselves using it as a conduit of vital and important information. indeed, a bit of a catch 22. they're now politicians, though they are dragging their feet even when big tech admit itself that it has harmful effects. they are and again, this is not a situation where i think regulation is a the answer or be going to do anything you know, regulation if, if it ever happened for social media is going to end up being something that lead giants like facebook continue, exploiting people and prevents small startups or ever competing with facebook. we see that kind of regulatory capture, again and again in different industries. so regulation is the answer. the answer over here is for free and voluntary action to shut down facebook and whether that's something like a small business, refusing the advertise on facebook or over

a government agency refusing to share information through facebook. the key here isn't to regulate it, because that's going to end up only favoring facebook, but rather to leave facebook and especially for the government to show an example. and to set to remove all government agencies from facebook and facebook subsidiaries. pushing back just a little bit, doesn't it seem there has been an argument made that facebook and other social media platforms are basically now utilities in that that people can't live without them. but to do tech giants have a point that it is impossible for them to police all of their content. the idea that they could somehow police all their content is absurd and when they do police are content they end up policing in the way that favors one very specific set of political ideologies over other ones. so they police their content, but all they're really doing is promoting their political agenda. and in terms of, of retraining of the utility, you're right. it is a utility but only acting of the utility because government agencies keep posting

information and sharing information, even posting job opportunities on facebook. so the government is the one that is turning it into a utility. so if the government simply steps away from it and that includes also as well, i think rep, elector, represent representatives, have a moral responsibility to leave facebook. that decreases its value, the utility, and the that is what it should be as basically sort of a small show you a small site to share some basic information. all right, let's get down to brass tax. you and i, if we're going to start a business and we had a great idea which we would, i'm sure we would have a great idea. absolutely. we want to make money. that's what we're in it for companies such as facebook are ultimately they're to make money. should it be their job to protect kids? i think there is a clear moral responsibility. i mean, it's true that you know to, to quote, they are the founder of whole foods, a person needs to eat. but that doesn't mean that the goal of a person should be to eat as much food as possible. and similarly, it's true that a business needs money to survive, but that doesn't mean

a business is only goal should be to make as much money as possible without regard to the moral effects of what they're doing. so facebook while has not done anything legally wrong, has certainly done quite a few things that are morally wrong. and that means individual government agencies, parents, children, small businesses, large businesses, have a moral imperative to stop using facebook for anything that is of any significant. and that means posting job posting information, anything like that should stop happening, be a facebook. now understanding the libertarian point of view, but understanding also that we live in a world where there's a lot of gray area, what legislation should be brought in, or do companies themselves need to resolve this on their own? the idea of bringing legislation is just if they did, that's just going to backfire every time that something like this has happened. what ends up happening is that the legislation makes impossible for startups to compete and allow the trends companies to stay in business, misty. we've seen this with tobacco,

we've seen it with that with alcohol. we've seen it with, you know, appliances, the phenomena on the phenomenon of regulatory capture as well known and well documented. it shows that when industries attempt to be reg, when the government tries to regulate them, the regulation just and the favoring, the entrenched, a big that the entrenched, dominant players, the correct answers to actually get rid of any existing regulation. and then to simply leave facebook directly. and that's something that really has to happen through both voluntary individual action and through government agencies and elected officials not using facebook or any of its subsidiaries for anything whatsoever. all right, interesting to hear thoughts are involved, the former vice chair of us libertarian national committee. always a pleasure. thanks for having me on. all right, that is it for this our, this is our to international. be back in 32 and a half minutes with another full and fresh look. stay with the

ah, the ah, frances macro recently said quote, the europeans must stop being naive when we are under pressure from powers, which at times harden their spans. we need to react and show. we have the power and capacity to defend ourselves volt words,

but does europe have the political will to actually defend itself? jamie diamond was critical of the claim to starting what it was $200.00 a point. it's now around $45000.00 coin adding at the points out 10 x from here. so he's looking for up to point $55.00 and about a coin. the, the international criminal court prosecutor is looking to resume his investigation into war crimes which were committed in afghanistan. however, one country has already been granted a sort of immunity from any wrongdoing. we will tell you why the united states is being exempted in the by an agenda is on the verge of collapse as one, a democratic senator is calling the spreading plan, fiscal insanity by insane,

the bill will cost 0 dollars. something is adding up and we're going to give you the 3 and talking about in the last 48 hours of the trump for the 10, pretty and same as major stories about the former president and his staff has been released with most put in the entire organization in a very negative life. we go straight to those who know the campaign and get their take on the timing and what is the truth, and what should we just left to the tablet? johnstone join goes to talk about his latest project, which exposes the dark secret which shed light on the world power structure and how deep the root of human trafficking and pedophilia are in today's friday. hughes, the stories are more and said new right here in our tea america. lots to cover. so let's get started. ah, thanks for joining us here. back in 2002, the international criminal court was set up to tackle the world's worst crimes. and

it has the authority to step in and actually bring people to justice for work crime .
