most powerful employer in such a situation, it's remarkable to survive. he world has really turned upside down and what we see now is blade and hypocrisy. when was the last time you had a verifiable truth from the united states government that they put out to the pub is being called a dark day for journalism, killing the sound support is lash out at the london high call to relate to allow his possible expedition to the united states, if another hearing is now needed to decide his fate, that we're all russia to return to diplomacy and took the escalate. the west urges russia to take the haines out of the ukrainian crisis while sending $60000000.00 worth of military 18 p f and are reportedly considering more. and also the south american billionaire is forced to return $70000000.00 worth of stolen antiquities,

keeping hoarding for decades with his anger after it revealed he won't face criminal charges. ah good evening gifts gone at 6 o'clock here in moscow this saturday watching at international. now a dark day for journalism, matt's house support is of june. the sancho free, acted to the british high court ruling that the wiki leaks founder can be extradited to the united states. washington one is appeal against a previous decision blocking his son should being sent to america to face trial. campaign is slammed the latest ruling which was handed down on the you ends, human rights. we condemned today's u. k. high court decision to allow the expedition of julius on to the us, which will prove historic for all the wrong reasons we fully believe. but gillian

assange has been targeted for his contributions to journalism. now the now, well people gathered in front of the court condemning the decision. previously, a lower court blocked his own, just expedition over concerns about his mental health that it was ruled on friday that that was no longer a concern. after the u. s. gave assurances, he would not serve any sentence in the maximum security prison or solitary confinement on his role is described though. those pages is vague and reliable. the fiance of the we can expand a yesterday maiden, the motional statement following the announcement. for how long can this go on today is international human rights day? what a shame, how cynical to have this decision on this day to have one of the foremost the foremost publisher journalists of the past,

50 years in the u. k. prison. accuse of publishing the truth about or crimes about c. i killed him. well, here's how we reach this point because in 2019 june. so it was forcefully removed by british police for medical doors embassy in london after the country terminated his 7 year silence. he had sought refuge following sexually assault allegations in sweden, which were later dropped the british. dorothy rested him on a separate charge of jumping bail. america wants to, we can be found extradited on claims of conspiring to the government computers and publishing classified material. well, we spoke with the us national security agency whistleblower william binnie about the case and also with rafael k, the former president of ecuador, whose administration gave sons political aside. according to what a gift to london court gave to the united states on the human rights day. that's

grim irony on human rights state. the rights of the journalist are blatantly violated and his sin was telling the truth. if assange revealed the secrets of china, russia, or left wing latin american governments such as mine, he would be applauded by the mainstream media 100 in the united states congress and the cape parliament. but as he went against the had you money of the united states, he was called a criminal. and the press is quite looks the other way or even supports this greg down on their colleague. it's completely incomprehensible. it could be understood if it was secret information about the location of troops or intelligence facilities, but we're talking about war crimes. this cannot be a state secret. the world has to know about that. there must be transparency. that's what assange did. that's why he's being punished. the world has really turned upside down. and what we see now is blatant hypocrisy. it really both bad for freedom and democracy around the world, publishing data and violation of the espionage. yeah. well now that's the united

states law. it's not a world wide laws, not a law in other countries. so there's a real problem with this to debrief court ruling on that issue of the of the espionage ack. suspending 1st amendment rights. they said it was justified in time of war. well, i would point out, we're not in a war now, congress is not declared war. we had no declared war. why are they indicting the a senior editors at least of the, of the guardian, the in new york times the washington post. all them who have also published this kind of material. why aren't they doing that? that's a violation of our laws. they're not equally applying the law. when was the last time you had a verifiable truth from the united states government that they put out to the public? what, when can you just divide from through other sources and means and methods that validity of what they've been telling you? you can't, they've lied, they lie to congress directly, they get caught lying and they just ignore it. nobody does anything. i mean,

they're exempt from the own laws that they pass. that, that's why we have here in the united states, 2 sets of laws, one for those of the people. and the rest of those in power have a different set of laws. and it's not gone unnoticed at the extradition ruling against june. the sonic came not only on human rights day, but also on the same day. the us wrapped up, it's multinational summit for democracy at waged. president biden did push for people to be able to breathe freely, as he put it will after saying that he was seen criticized for not applying the same principles to tuning as such. and as we close out the 1st gathering, let's let, let us together reaffirm our determination. if the future will belong to those who embrace human dignity, not those who trampling one wish to potential. other people are those who stifle and who gives people the ability to breathe free. are those who seek the suffocated

people with a liar hair. this shameful verdict, cannibalistic case against a journalistic and public figure is another manifestation of the cannibalistic world view of the anglo saxon tandem. the west marks international human rights day and the end of the summit for democracy with dignity. this news is devastating. the persecution of julian assange as the disgrace. meanwhile, biden is holding his cynical democracy summit and the hypocrisy and the cruelty i, while the u. s. is busy promoting democracy in other countries, his own seemed to be at risk somewhat because the stock own based think tank annual review with democracies around the world has for the very 1st time put the us in the back sliding category. assange freedom campaigner john re says that support and democracy in other countries doesn't mean that the u. s. is doing the same at home, i think with it's remarkable doctor, especially on human rights day that the judges in this case or should have found that it would be safe to extradite julian assigned to the country where it security

service leave. cia has previously been threatening to hit that all kill in the problem with many modern states. they're all for a democracy and freedom of speech, of a free press in other people's countries, but not necessarily in their own. and until we get arthritis awkwardly and understand. but freedom of the price is a universal human right, because it's part of freedom of speech. we won't be making very much progress well than 50 people, a thought to have died after kentucky's worst ever tornadoes with fears that the year overall death tal could actually end up twice. that number, kentucky's governor has declared a state of emergency. we're nearing the end of the most severe tornado event and kentucky's history. a roof collapse at a candle factory has resulted in mass casualties. as

a 4 45 am 56854 kentuckians are without power. the primary tornado was on the ground continuously for over 200 miles in our state . something we have never seen before. well, these images to show the destruction that happened in the city of mayfield in kentucky now, and are thought to show the destroyed candle factory that the governor reference there is sharif collapsing after the tornadoes struck me. while in the state of illinois, workers have been trapped inside an amazon warehouse offers roof was hit by a tornado and also collapsed local media. reporting that some employees have been rescued from the facility up to 100 people who are inside the building at the time . according to authorities, there are reports of possible death. now, however, the number of victims is not yet known. a man in neighboring arkansas one person is

thought to have been killed in 5 saves the injured after the same storm damage to nursing home. there many others were trapped inside that building to the survey, whether as also claimed 3 lives in tennessee. of course, we'll bring the more information as we get it pensions over ukraine, running high with russia, slamming the west, feeling the escalation and voicing concern that nato actions in the region. moscow warns they could potentially lead to a large scale conflict, of course, has been set to draw ukraine into nato. such irresponsible behavior is an unacceptable threat to our security provoking serious risk for all parties involved up to a large scale conflict in europe. while the u. s revealed on thursday, the 30 javelin anti tank missiles systems were delivered to ukraine, back in october, as part of a 60000000 dollar military aid package. and the further $200000000.00 could be donated to at the same time,

russia is being urged to respect board is by both nato and the military build up in their own ukraine. this races tensions undermine security. in europe, we call on russia to return to diplomacy, and to de escalate the about and we expect russia to de escalate and refrain from any aggression towards his neighbors and respect the rights of sovereign states. when it comes off for ukraine, the navy shit name don't bass approach. russian morse's with act authorization on thursday and move that rush regarded as a threat to the navigation or safety of other vessels in the area. you know, denied all allegations and insisted that she was an anom search and rescue vessel that never entered restricted waters or posed any threat at all. the vessel did eventually change course not to give you some perspective. and all of this, the ship is named after the ukraine region of dawn bass, which has been making headlines since 2014 when war there broke out that arrest has

become a c discord to between here and moscow. and on thursday, the russian president vladimir likened what is happening in the region to a war crime are still is she, i should say that russo foby as the 1st step towards genocide. what's going on and on bass now very much resembles genocide. we see it and we know about it. okay, well let's talk more about this now with our correspond loderman casa, if he joins mis studio and, man, i know you've been long reporting on the crisis in easton, ukraine, and you were there recently. i think that just last month um, what is the situation like at the moment? any snoo tray? yes sir. indeed. ah, the situation at least in ukraine at the moment sir, i could liken it to a human, its area and catastrophe. the war there has been happening for the last 8 years and so i can tell you that that people are really it sort of what's happening. i'm. they're constantly last 8 years. i'm there at least $56.00 times

a year. i'm going back there in december again. and i talked to both the regular folk, i talked to the authorities that are in charge there at the moment. and when talking to people generally, and they're saying a we are really tired of this. tell us how long is this going to continue? until is, how long do we need to wait? give us a time frame a year, 2 years or 5 years. please tell us when is this going to stop? and we are talking about escalations there from time to time, but said to tell you honestly, the escalation hasn't stopped in the last 8 years. people that live along the front lines, they're constantly being shelled out of the room with artillery. there's a small arms fire bill between the 2 sides, both sides of bleeding each other for violating the truce. um,

you know that there are minsk records that are in place there that are supposed to prevent the sides from worrying against each other. however, i and has been proven recently as well. ukraine continues to violate sir, those misc accords by using are heavily armed drawings along the front lines. are they using a high caliber or artillery? and of course are the people there. i mean the see with their own eyes. every time i go to numbers, i visit those areas and every time i talk to people, ah, they're saying yes for something you know, flew around here yesterday or the day before i actually or was sent a, a ah, vox pop from mom, from a friend of mine in the ukraine. let sir have a listen to what the people are saying about a recent escalation. let's take a look at that. as the genius machine continues every day, sometimes fed away,

sometimes crowder. but every day, heavy machine guns and aircraft missiles and heavy artillery. good. we go down to this basement. we do not go further because it is wet over there. here sit in on a box, my son recent. he spent almost an hour. but in general, we have not hidden in this basement for a long time, because now we are used to constant machine gun and artillery sheylan. they are my years video. the house i am living in was simply given to me by ordinary people. because my real house was bombed in january 2014. and my daughter's in july, she generally this situation, andrew is very close to my heart. i do have relatives that live in dawn bus, including our small children. speaking about children, according to un numbers, in the 8 years of war, at least a 120 children were killed. as a result of this conflict,

nearly 300 kids have been wondered how they all require help and once again, because the country is at war, i humanitarian aid doesn't always get there in time. well, ukraine's official position is that it is at war with russia. and thus it refuses to have a constructive dialogue with the representatives of the self proclaimed a republic of the esque and elegance can. they're ready to talk. they are defending their motherland as, as they would say. but once again, the size continued to blame each other for the violation of the truce. ukrainian officials. there are so many officials and they have different opinions about how to, how to bring about peace of the country, how to unite the country. once again, very often the officials and ukraine,

they contradict each other as well. for example, just recently the country. so foreign minister, he said that the only way to bring about peace and on boss is through force. i mean, that's, that's their narrative. meanwhile, the presidents lensky, just earlier today, he said that he doesn't exclude the fact that so they could hold a referendum on done boss in crimea or about their status. so that could be in the card. so one official is saying, let's go to war. the other officials saying that russia is attacking us, attacking us for it's amassing troops along our border. the president says, you know, maybe there could be a referendum. so everybody's saying completely different things that meanwhile the people are, people, officials seem to forget that it's all about the people and the war is really hell . what's the situation there is for the hellish at the moment. and the humanitarian

catastrophe is in place. and if people are sick and tired of the war, and once again, when i talk to them, they're all asking me when is this going to went? when is this going to? and i don't know what to tell them. and just on the politics we hear, don't we that, you know, the crux is more autonomy for don bass and against. but when you talk to people that have been treated to the last 8 years, if they they must be so tired of what's going on as you've described to them, is this, the crux. they won't, greater autonomy, you able to sort of understand from their point of view exactly had, i think this could be result. of course, there is a single opinion. you know, of course, there's always a majority. there is a minority and people have different opinions, but i can say with authority, if you will, that most of the people there for their future is with russia. you know, there are at least 300000 people that received a russian citizenship in the last 8 years. and of course,

there are also people that are dreaming of a united recruit ukraine once again. but that's a very insignificant minority if you will, but the people, once again, they're asking me like, when is russia going to recognize our independence as in the case with the south? the says here and up here. and i don't know many times. so you know what to tell them, but it just, you know who my to speak right. but they are, they are hoping that so very soon their independence will be recognized by again, you know, there are many people and many different opinions, but sir, ah, one general, the majority are general majority are linking their future with russia. yeah. and sounds like all of them have a very strong sense of despair at the moment. roman good to talk to that was, are artes, roman, coastal now jonathan, ortho, thomas fast,

bender told us that there is a risk in his opinion of a full scale european war. there is. so something that has not been here for decades. that is the perspective, the ria perspective or for a major european war. so he and now the key for a potential war in europe lives now 100 percent with the key of government. if key, if decides to provoke a russian invasion and that there will be a russian invasion as soon as key of starts a major offensive against the break of a republics, in that case, automatically. busy the blank check will be full of western support for the ukrainian side. so the western narrative says that whatever crimea, or whatever a key if does to reclaim or even reconquer the breakaway republics, or even crimea, would be executing their sovereign rights on their sovereign territory. and we

should hope that both the washington and moscow and of course, are all to wall. so perez and berlin understand that there is a real risk of a european war here watching artie still to come this our bad news to american shop . this is price and search to a near 40 year high. we'll talk more about the spiraling inflation after the break . ah, we've talked about the rising chance of civil war and america, and it can either be between the have yards and the have nots. it could be between the big coin staves, like texas or florida between the non bitcoin states. but the rising tension is comparable because of the rising kinney coefficient that is not only spread between the very top and in the bottom is getting extremely wide.

awe many of us fully also would be the sort of p i did. i thought, well, you're not gonna get of course, surely any more transmissible than delta and not what's happened. you got something which has popped up with more than 30 changes in that spite protein that we're all interested in. oh, it's accumulated, all the mutations we've seen in different varies all in one bars. and that raises the really interesting issues about where, where did he come from in the 1st place, is it possible to get even more mutations and what's gonna happen in terms of disease severity and maxine protection? so it is suggesting though no divorce has still got some way to go and we'll throw out some more surprises. ah,

again now an american billionaire has been forced to surrender stolen antiquities that he had hoarded for decades. the case of hedge fund pioneer, michael stein hart, his shocked archeologist and historians around the world and his collection of plundered art is estimated to be worth something like $70000000.00. so let's have a quick look then at some of those items are which were stolen and smuggled. they do include this, the stikes had rise in it, dates back to the 5th century b. c. and it's worth something like 3 and a half $1000000.00. another rare masterpiece, there was the learn acts as a small chest for human remains with an impressive price tag of $1000000.00. and also amongst that lot was a set of death masks dating back to 7000 b. c. well, steinhardt gave up the treasures as part of a deal, which does mean that he will not face criminal charges. the origins of the looted until kit in antiquity stretch across 11 countries, among them, italy, greece, and also israel. they're all robbed of their cultural heritage,

and experts do say that the damage inflicted is immeasurable. kim's damage has been done to the countries of origin, sociological sites. the main damage is cultural in the sense that we are losing the history of his objects. our common sort of past, and this is the, the biggest crime that it is being performed by looting on the global level, the loss of history, the loss of information. however, the only hardship for micro steinhardt, however, all of this is a lifetime ban on acquiring any other relics in the future. his lawyer says steinhart is very pleased the investigation concluded without any charges. and his public outrage, though what's perceived as a remarkably lenient wriggling with most respondents to a power insisting he scott away too lightly. the justice system in the u. s. was

constructed primarily for 2 reasons, punish the poor, protect the wealthy, know jail for the rich and powerful. this country has been sold to the highest bidders, our country's legal system as a joke, stolen 70000000 in art, and no jail time. i remember a guy in louisiana getting 40 years in prison for stealing a loaf of bread because he was starving. there is no justice if you're rich, i'm sure there will bits answers to pick up the case. again, my preference would have been to be pressed saturdays and having possibly a conviction as well. i'm not very happy about the final result. it has demonstrated very clearly that michael stein knew that there were serious problems with the provenance, the collecting study that these of the objects he was acquiring, or at least should have, had very, very strong indications about the possibility of being looked. and

there's objects how america is in the grip of surging inflation, not seen since the 1980s with prices rising across many sectors for 6 months in a row in november prices for us. can she miss jump nearly 7 percent compared with the for more than one the one percent a year ago? triggered by the current of respond demik. inflation has hit everything from food and energy to house rentals and also cars. but the u. s. federal reserve is still hesitant to take serious action to curb, despite such as raising interest rates con miss peace row. told us that higher inflation does drive people further into that. there's a view that low low level inflation is, is good to be economy. i'm not sure i subscribe to that, but certainly the kind of inflation we're seeing now is very pernicious and it breaks down as many as of the economy and may waits the pandemic. or rather,

the central bank in response to the band i make is the main factor i that's good in the place right now. last year, the federal reserve increase the years money to supply between 30 and 40 percent. and the root cause inflation is lots of money chasing the same are fewer goods and services. so that's the main one that is going to try to lift interest rates to tap down on this question, but they can't do they stop to open market bond purchase, as they've said they won't stop back until april or may of next year. so give me a while, this employees may get a bit higher before they're able to do that. they don't even really benefit from high inflation, systematically r r r r creditors because you take debt and inflation rises, you wind up paying off that debt in cheaper, which is a mess. less valuable currency, whether it's dollars or pounds or whatever. so in a sense, we should hires a inflation rather promotes higher levels of debt, which is also a bad thing. watching auntie, don't forget me though, penny stories will you too? and i'll website you can always find that at asi, don't come. so that's why things are looking for them. i'm back again in hoffman

with blue with oh, oh oh, i know ah, with awe

back breaking toil forced labor stress in industrial injury. corporal punishment to own words with which we're all familiar with. are you certain that the world you live in abolish slavery long ago?

scientific knowledge has never been so readily available to everyone across the globe, but overwhelmed by information. can we distinguish the real science from the one being imposed upon us? we're living in a world where there are many people who have a vested interest in finding information, finding scientific evidence, and discredited. even the notion that science could provide the truth about the natural world in the pursuit of business goals. large corporations, a challenge strongly by scientific evidence if you're emotionally invested and free markets, them climate change is a serious emotional threat because dealing with it means we have to change our approach to business industries are on the war bond attempting to debunk legitimate science by producing new evidence is science lighting science. that's how ignorance is manufactured. there are potentially speaking to the rail fine. this rolling using sy or to against the shell.
