in it together. ah, the stories are shaped the week hair and r t a bombshell report alleges and c i. e . planned to kidnap or assassinate, which leads found a jeering assange. but the agencies, former chief, mike pompeo at the center of the prompt, also to come russia threatened to block you chiva the video sharing platform, permanently delete starting german language channels. moscow police u. s. company would not have acted with act approval from berlin also to camp it was an extraordinary disaster. if we didn't have a president, it was so ad old and you all would be fired. i don't think anyone can trust anything. this president says about afghanistan, us lawmakers lambaste president biden, and his top bras over what some in congress,

according washington's humiliating withdrawal from afghanistan. we asked though if the whole afghan campaign might be a bigger failure than just the policy itself. meanwhile, human rights groups are outraged as the international criminal court decides to ignore, alleged american war crimes in afghanistan. here from a man who lost 10 relative to the u. s. jerome strike in couple. at the end of august, pass marco read only a cloth. i will keep demanding that each person who has committed a crime here must be convicted and punished. if americans committed a crime, they must be brought to justice. they should be held to account. ah, hello, welcome to school mid day here in moscow you watching artie international. now this week it was revealed to c i a proctor to kidnap or sasa, nate, we colleagues founded using assange when he was in the ecuadorian embassy in london . the u. s. media report based was based on statements from 30 for me,

u. s. officials and sent it on mike pompei while he was director of the agency during the time that donald trump was empower. pompeo has denied the accusations, but once action taken against those who made the or they should all be prosecuted for speaking about classified activity inside the central intelligence agency. maybe they didn't, maybe as a cap, just made it up. but you should, i take seriously, my responsibility is to protect that information. this can be seen as pompoms confirmation of the assange kit, not or kill story. why else would you want to prosecute those sources? speaking about classified activity, kid never. ariel man, hunt and shootout with russian spies in central london. the new james bond movie. not exactly. in fact, these are the highlights from a reported cia secret plan to silence the journalist already who revealed americans for dirty secrets. location london,

the year 2017 starting. julian, a sorry, a man of interest. heidi ecuadorian embassy. my campaign. then c. i achieve evil mastermind behind the operation. the russkies. the essential ingredient for any good spice dory. doubtless ya would break every possible law to silence independent journalist. stay tuned. the upcoming details may surprise you. we are working chapter one, the fascination my campaign wanted the cia to be create instructors, subordinates not to self center themselves. when it comes to dealing wiki links, sometimes, oh tricks were best they might have thought and came up with a good old assassination plans, detailed sketches, options on how to murder sounds. reportedly we discussed in the white house on the highest possible level. why would

a cia chief plots of the killing of an independent journalist? well, it was an act of personal vendetta. back in march 2017, the newly appointed c. i. a chief found himself in a very difficult position when wikileaks released top secret ca, papers. they were completely detached from reality because they were so embarrassed about vault 7. they were seen blood chapter 2. kidnapping. but somebody in the white house might have thought paid, no killings where a civilized nation that's kidnapped this journalist and sentence him to death by american law. the plan was simply break into the embassy drag assange out and bring him to where we want one small issue. the u. s. justice department failed to keep up with cia fantasies. they were still processing the case and didn't file charges against the wikileaks founda. so the see i was going to kidnap a foreign citizen from the capital of washington's closest ally with no legal basis

tool. a perfect master black deed. you could possibly spoil the fun russians of course, chapter 3, fighting russians. what if vladimir putin intelligence gets there 1st, a dunce assange, and then flies him to moscow? that's a possibility. the paranoid, see i any offices thought? brace yourself. the plans accounts of russians may just blow your mind. the cia left nothing to chance. the sand gets into the car with the russian operatives. a cia initiates a car crash with the russian diplomatic vehicle. god knows how many other londoners collateral damage is. they say, assange gets on the plane. the cia blocks it on the runway by shooting its tires. as well as anything and anybody else's way the plane takes off with a flat tire, the c, i a hovers, a helicopter over,

it still manages to leave the ground. they demanded the european countries, close their aspects. we are still talking when captain julian assad, not the number one terrorist. oh, well, if you are an independent journalist who happens to cross the american governments pass the cia, it's pretty much the same thing. rule of law may not voice. you mean watching the sun does remain in a maximum security prison in the u. k. despite a british judge ruling against his extradition to the united states over fears about his mental health, he does face a 175 years in prison in america, where he is wanted on charges of hacking and espionage and 2019 assange was forcibly removed by police from the ecuadorian embassy in london after the country terminated his 7 year asylum. they're following the recent developments this week we heard from a former c i a analyst em whistleblower john kerry acu and also the wiki leaks

editor in chief, christine had athens. when you so stunning revelation is quite shocking to see that this was being conquered, cousins in the states. so the kids mopping them, graham, possibly killing. if julian is expedited to to the only states, it will be in the hands of the seo his faith on you as ground. it would be in the hands of those who were planning to kit, kill him. when these discussions were going on, there was some low indictment out against julia. he hadn't been charged with anything. so if there was any doubt about the political nature of the indictment and the creational, did i went on the entire case. it is now confirmed to be so it is a political persecution and nothing else. the world understand that the united states is trying to criminalize journalism. they refused to accept the fact that julian assigned is a journalist that the american people owned this information and they have the

right to know what it is and that the government behind their backs, the backs of the american people, is trying to assassinate someone who has not been kid victim of a crime in one of the things that we learned in this article was dad. the british intelligence service, the external intelligence service, and my sex, was apparently involved, you know, where they were talking about, shoot out the potential for shootouts in front of the, at, with dorian embassy. that was the british that were supposed to be doing this shooting when they talk about shooting out the tires of a russian plane that might have been taking jillian assigned to the, to russia. and that was the british that were supposed to be doing the shooting. so i would certainly hope that the british courts finally say enough is enough. there's no way that jolina signs should or could be extradited to the united states, and he should be free to go by russia. his threatening to block. he came that after the video sharing service deleted artes,

german language channels for legislative breeching community guidelines. moscow though, describe the move is an act of unprecedented information aggression, the russian foreign ministry saying that the measures against r t could not have been taken without the lens approval. there is no doubt that youtube was acting with the open and tacit support of the german government and taking these unjust measures. they have exposed correspondence of russian broadcasters to years long harassment, including the blocking of bank accounts and public slander. the purpose of this aggression against the russian media holdings projects is obvious to drown out sources of information that clash with a media background that is comfortable for german officialdom. the german government has denied her the allegations earlier, new harvey spoke to our correspondent consulting rosco, for that the ban and also the possible ramifications. or you know, the popularity of r t in germany among the germans speaking the audience has been grow in,

especially in the recent years. and just to give you some numbers. artie doors had a total of almost $547000000.00 views and over 600000 subscribers and not a small youtube channel that placed it among the top german news channels on that platform. so artie, george has managed to put up a fight against major german news outlets. and of course this hasn't gone unnoticed . odd, there are a lot of politicians in germany who have repeatedly called for curves on r t in a in the country. and rti has been struggling to start a teeny broadcast in germany for many years, facing both overton hayden resistance. so all in all is been an extremely harsh environment. hostile environment for our fellow colleagues in germany. so these been, seem like kosh treatment what, what was the, the potential crime that was committed while, as usual, in these cases, the response from a media platform is vague and ye tube send our colleagues in germany message saying

that there were, quote repeated violations of community guidelines so you know, that's it, you get out of the platform, google, which owns you tube, a gave as a more detailed response. so let's have a listen. ye cheap has clear community guidelines which explain what is allowed on the platform. i'll t deutsch was issued a warning for uploading content that violates our rules in relation to covet 19 medical misinformation policy. this results in the suspension of their right to upload videos during the suspension. the channels owners tried to bypass the restrictions by using a different channel. as a result, both channels were closed, violating you cheap times of service. so to give you some context, our 1st rti george, his main youtube channel law, was given several code related strikes and that led to a temporary suspension. so because the main page was suspended, its team decided to continue sharing his content on different page that belongs to one of its, ah shows. ah, it was different content. ah,

not that which had been flag by youtube, of course. but nonetheless, both pages were completely deleted by youtube without any warning. now what's interesting is that there are no clear rules saying that you can a run a separate page, or maybe even start a new page if you are suspended on youtube for whatever reason. besides those 4 videos in question that rti doors receive strikes for are contained criticism of the government's approach of the pandemic voiced by other medical experts not by journalists. so ah, to claim that this was medical law mis information, misinterpretation. well, in the eyes of archie george that saw debatable so is ality denying in the wrong doings it challenging this been while they're saying that they receive an unfair treatment. and actually the 1st to common on that story in russia was our own editor in chief museum. come with the leads for several months before

a chance were vance. the german media had been publishing care stories about r t. german becoming 2 influential to significant according to their own calculations, were ranked forth in terms of influence in germany were bigger than, well were bigger than germany's own chinese like daughter. well, no one expected that of course, we also didn't expect that to happen so quickly. i mean that would attract so big an audience, have so much success. they made us out to be a bogeyman. they refused to give us a license. they forbade banks for working with us. they pressured luxembourg, so we couldn't get a license there. and when all that didn't work, they deleted us from youtube using a far fetched pretext. that was predictable because no normal person believes that freedom of speech exists in this countries. the question is how we rush respond. we're looking forward to it. as foreign ministry spokeswoman muddy, the ha, also we'd in by saying that would just happen. ah, was an act of aggression and that there is going to be a symmetrical response to directed at german media work. and in russia. now the

message she didn't clarify what exactly that means, but i guess her, our german colleagues working here should be bracing for a bumpy road ahead. we got the thoughts to of alex and, and ye from germany's left part in oh, so believe in a he was a politician for the c d party. they say it is a step backwards for press. freedom in europe does isn't oh clearly this situation does not with european freedom in a positive light. we have to acknowledge the deny media space has been subject to seth a ship and manipulation, which reminds me of the worst times in germany. it's in our interest for our see to make an even greater contribution to german and european media diversity. as i've said before, r t has become an integral component of european press freedom. we as citizens have the right to be informed and have access to high quality journalists, regardless of its origin. fitness, you know, i considered it a challenging situation that now the russian point of view, public, or political, is being more and more suppressed. archie deutsch does not have

a particularly good reputation in germany, not with readers, but rather among their colleagues. they don't like our t deutsche, because it has broken their monopoly and the dictate of opinion in german journalists and journalists who practice journalism that praises the authorities. instead of critical journalist do not like such competition. they don't like it that a mirror has been put in front of them in which they can see what they really should be doing. now off to chaotic st in the u. k. this week, some petrol stations there is still dry despite the fuel crisis easing written. so massive keys. i'm full court across the country with frustrate to try this even resorting to violence. you joy, jerry, i gotta read you one, then got you. yeah. so then there has been plenty of tension on display over the last few days. the massive

keys in panic buying kicked off after oil firm b. p warned it would have to temporarily closed some of its pet from stations due to a lack of lawyer drivers needed to deliver fuel supplies. the k government now says it will bring in the army to help deliver fuel. from monday is a reminder, have had a crisis, took helped, ah, many you work us work inside the u. k. left new dr. a. did not enter a peer professional piece. all came together in depth. the supply chain, him the stops. ah. the government has more than anything the government isn't making this better. to

be honest. if anything, members, you've taken off 10 years back doesn't show competency people. there's always a plan b i looked at. they still can t really believe. don't know what's in the next level. what is the next stage with a leash, the potential of the entire people of this country, ah, fish offering or p shall show temper is totally no strategic strategy to solve the issue in the 3. and this will not be shawl thread pending alti $1000.00 fee shocks . if no face re strategic action is taken, it will also only become more worse. now this weekend, so tough talks in congress is us lawmakers slash diety,

j biden. and his top military command is over the afghanistan withdrawal. the biden's head ministration has received a lot of flack, a with this recently with some coding to pull act humiliating for washington here, which is some of the accusations that were fired at the president and his team. the president said, none of his commanders said that he should keep troops in afghanistan. was that a false statement by the president? i said, remember, you do not have a duty to cover for the president. what is not telling the truth? i've given you my judgment on it. now, let's think we all know it was a false state. i have been frustrated by the lack of someone in charge on the biggest national security fiasco in a generation. there has been 0 accountability, no responsibility from anybody. we have poured cash and blood and credibility into a got a government. that was a mirage. it fell immediately. we were buying into the big lot, the big lie that this, that this was the ever going to be successful new year. here's the thing. there's

only 3 possibilities here. either the president lie to the american people, or he legitimately cannot remember the counsel of his top military advisors in winding down the longest war and american history or you have not been fully accurate under oath. we didn't have a president that was so adult. you all would be fired. what is not just the pull at this being attack the entire afghan campaign is now coming in for increasing criticism. is caleb martin explains a testimony before congress was dancing. not only was the pull out of afghanistan fiasco, but the campaign failed to achieve its primary aim. it was an extraordinary disaster . it will go down in history, is one of the greatest failures of american leadership. we have 0 presence in afghanistan. it could be as little as 12 months before al kato will use afghanistan as a base conduct as a base to conduct airstrikes or strikes against united states. frankly,

after this debacle of withdrawal, i don't think anyone can trust anything. this present says about afghanistan. we need to consider some uncomfortable truce that we did not fully comprehend the depth of corruption and poor leadership and her senior ranks. that we did not grass the damaging effect of frequent and unexplained rotations by president ghani of his commanders. and that we fail to fully grasp why there was only so much for which and for home. many of the afghan forces would fight. so after an entire war aimed to eliminate a terrorist threat to america, that threat could now be worse to real possibility in the not too distant future, 612182436 months that time the time frame for re constitution about kite are isis terrorist organizations seek ungoverned spaces so that they can train and equip and thrive. and there is clearly a possibility that that can happen. here are going forward. afghanistan in effect

now has become an entire terrace state taliban, even though they may think that they're trying to govern that place itself to slit and already we're seen isis attacking caliber. and there's no guarantee then that taliban can ensure that attacks will not be planned. and launched from that from afghanistan, thought there were more revelations in the testimony, apparently behind closed doors. the biden administration was more divided on afghanistan. i think a while we is conceivable that you could stay there. my view was that you would have had to deploy more forces in order to protect ourselves and accomplish any mission that we would have been assign. it appears that the department of defense was not fully on board with pulling out of afghanistan. and they are arguing for maintaining some presence in the country. my view was that we needed to maintain about 2500. and that we also needed to work with our coalition partners. we had

about 6000 troops and their nato and other core countries that would, that would remain there. this flies in the face of the biden administration's claim that pulling out was the unanimous decision. it's unclear what would really change if the united states stayed in the country. it has been 20 years after all, and the security situation in afghanistan has not improved. so maybe the mistake wasn't pulling out in 2021, but rather going in in 2001. now that's a discussion you won't hear on capitol hill, but it's probably taking place in many american minds for officials on capitol hill to attribute that. so way to the somewhat chaotic withdrawal from afghanistan is completely absurd. if the u. s. officials had dealt with these crime on september the 11th as what they were and found out who was responsible and brought them to justice. and, you know, this would have been, you know,

at this point something that just something that happened 20 years ago. that was dealt with instead, they used september the 11th as a pretext for 20 years of war. what the so called war on terror was doing was fueling tech terrorism. and the adjacent armed resistance in country after country the united states has, has actually increased the risk of terrorism. me, my human rights drapes, a fuming over a decision by the international criminal court to regime a probe into all crimes in afghanistan, but no longer look at allegations of american atrocities. there. instead, the focus will be exclusively on the taliban and isis. k. i have decided to focus my offices investigations in of janice, down on crime, allegedly committed by the taliban and these law mac state and to de prioritize

other aspects of this investigation. while this does come as washington faces outrage over a wrongful drone strike the left 10 afghan civilians dead in couple at the end of august. but against the f looks now into what the i, c c's decision will mean for the relatives of those victims who is still seeking justice. what has caused such a scandal and such furor amongst human rights activists that organizations as that the eyes he sees essentially saying that we don't have the time or the means to investigate the, the thousands of verified civilian casualties caused by the united states and the arc our military, the prosecutors telling war criminals around the world that the u. s. playbook of deland intimidation works. it also validates one of the core criticisms of the i see it. it only takes action against politically. we came to the deals or nations. well, given western powers a pass by d prioritizing,

investigating us and so on. as a national security forces, d i. c, c prosecutor is shamefully hanging, then a get out of jail free card of the people that have been kidnapped and tortured at afghan bass has, or it a secret cia basis here. and i've got to start, they say how we reached here. this point is, is due to mob tactics because initially the, i see, she announced that they would investigate everyone's role in any potential walcross here in afghanistan. which, which prompted a tremendous pressure campaign from the united states where they threatened and sanctioned i. c. c. and officials, the timing of the i c. c decision, the announcement i couldn't have been much worse, the international press as well as the u. s. government, i still reeling from the fall out of the, the last drone strike of the afghan waterloo

. busy busy ah, a drone strike that caused 10 civilian casualties. we have kept in touch with their relatives and the only apology that they've heard this is on television. but the united states, the pentagon, calling the depths of 10, the 10 of their loved ones, are a tragic mistake. but at the same time saying, no disciplinary measures would be carried out and they're left with with the understanding that if of their loss hasn't been inflicted by the taliban or isis. well, they're out of luck or commitment to the international court of justice. i will say that we have been demanding for justice for more than one month now we suffered pain. nobody asked us about or helped us. we need justice to be served as soon as

possible. i ask americans and other people around the world who allow the american military to palm innocent civilians in any part of the world. this must be stopped wants and for all, no killings of women and innocent children any more. the pentagon has offered all manner of excuses, many of which they have funneled into the press. 4 for why this was an honest mistake. they claim that they have learned the lesson of this terrible tragedy. but many people find that difficult to believe if, if this was allowed to happen after 20 years in afghanistan after so many drew strikes. similar to this when weds wrong pathmark already on the horse, i will keep demanding that each person who has committed a crime here must be convicted and punished with the due process of law. it's unfair if a person commits a crime and then a different person is brought to court to answer, the criminal must be punished, no scapegoats. if americans committed a crime,

they must be brought to justice. they should be held to account americans attack our house, not the taliban. how the taliban will answer for this attack is a logical eco, american drones arm drones keep buzzing. javier space over afghanistan with the american saying that no, they neither need nor, nor plan on requesting any afghan permission to conduct an air strikes either get a stop just to remind everyone, no one in the by the administration or at the pentagon has been fired. has resigned or, or intended to leave as a result of what many describe was a fiasco. the united states withdraw pull out from of get a star or, and gas air reporting now from couple you've been watching the weekly here. not international. could have your company this sunday. we're back again at the top. me . oh.

bought no one. no, sir. no, no, admiral hook, no, no. what gore more shrill than what they should of unit 731 was a unique organization in the history of the world. what they were trying to do was to simply do nothing short and build the most powerful and most deadly biological weapons program that the world had ever. no real good, you know, took production with it. so i guess you're sure that they're not

huge. when you saw new rochelle, keep on move. my general manager thought is meant new to more not up on there and i got the sale. i got your name. i got on monday. i wish to know about joy. oh, new. i know you did room or got more polished enough, jr. let's i had to put the sco their mother and all your body build garage door couch. nice. oh boy, that's good to go or. oh, what the on this for? sure. my indiana. i'm all i can send more a lot. i'm all for them. i think it is driven by dreamers shaped by thinkers and those with.
