9:04 pm
a massive 5th wave. i mean, close concert with my colleagues from the u. k. both politically and scientifically . we were still coordinating just yesterday, my colleagues say that what has been observed on the ground exceeds anything that has been observed in the entire pandemic. we have to prepare ourselves for a challenge that we have not faced yet in this form. while infection numbers have been dropping gradually in recent days and weeks here in germany, it isn't happening fast enough. according to the country, public health authority, the robert cock institute, in order to release the burden from intensive care beds and the availability of those intensive care beds. not just in germany, where there are problems on the horizons. a new action being taken in switzerland. they've brought in new measures which are designed in order to well get more people to get vaccinated. basically, if you haven't been vaccinated or can't prove that, you have recovered from covered it within the last 6 months, you to be pretty much barred from,
9:05 pm
from everywhere in switzerland. from here on out, what we're seeing is you going to need to provide the proof of one of those 2 things to get into sports stadiums. cultural events, and leisure facilities, also restaurants as well. it comes after the intensive care unit bed space in the capacity for that bed space in switzerland, past 82 percent this week. so the country deciding to take emergency measures they're in denmark, they've also implemented new measures. they are going to be closing theaters and sinners because of a rise of covert cases. they're in france. what they've done is they've basically cut off all non essential travel between france and the united kingdom because of the, the she had number of cases, tens and tens of thousands. huge amounts of cobra case has been recorded in the united kingdom, france deciding they would well wanted few people as possible traveling between their 2 countries. it's also prompted action at an e new level member states,
9:06 pm
and their leaders saying that they wanted to see more vaccines that are specifically tailored to tackle the oma, kron variant of cove at 19. in fact, the orders are all ready to go in for a 180000000 doses of covert vaccines that were target specifically the, the o micron variant when it, well, the subject of vaccines. there's been a massive push here in germany to get people to come forward for booster jobs. in fact, 1500000 people were vaccinated here in germany on wednesday alone, 1300000 of those were booster vaccines. but the problem is, there's not enough vaccines here in germany right now in order to keep up that type of pace and that type of pace that the, the new health minister wants to see happening. so what germany is looking to do is to buy vaccines that are being used in countries like poland, bulgaria, and remaining vaccines that may well see this. they're used by dates expire in the
9:07 pm
near future, germany say, and they'll take them off their hands in order to try and get enough jobs in the facilities and all that to put them into people's homes. we spoke with w h o representative margaret harris. she thinks the micron strain makes vaccinations more important now than ever. the really big difference between alma klein and the of the variance is it's made of spread. we are very concerned that there will be a lot of people who become severely ill and end up in hospital people who had previously been infected with all the forms of the, of the size going to be to virus were re infected with army front. so we can see that i'm run can infect people, whether or not they have had a previous infection and it can infect people who have been vaccinated. but the critical thing is, we are also saying that people who've been vaccinated ah,
9:08 pm
being protected from having the severe form from dying ending this pandemic is in all our hands at every level of society, every country, if we all do all the things we need to do we can in this pandemic? so what am i talking about? we only to get vaccinated, we own a to hill people around the world get vaccinated. we all need to take seriously the measures to prevent the violins from spreading a person to person until we vaccinate promptly around the world. we are making it more civil for new versions to new variance to arise for you. k supreme court has ruled that it was illegal for police to drop a probe into alleged torture committed by british soldiers in northern ireland in 1971. the case relates to the troubles when hundreds of suspected ira members were detained, often without charge. fortune of those arrested were subjected to brutal interrogation
9:09 pm
techniques. these were later recognized as illegal frances mcguigan, one of the 14, told us what happened to him. i was booted. forced to stand against the law, finger tips and tip toes, small my back post. and so my body was actually bold with this constant weight noise. that commandment took over your brain. we were denied chile, we all show, were denied you should toilet. they took my move, my own clothes and put me in a boiler shirt. that boiler straight was may day, close my night clothes and my toilet for 7 days. and i just went on it and we're forced to stand against this wall with your finger tips and that in a stress position. the body can only stand so much and you would collapse. don't
9:10 pm
westgate you're just beaten? taken back up up against the wall. and that that was constant for the 7 days. i finished up with the broken ribs. i still have nightmares. i don't know how many difference to campus i've spoken to on the majority him tell me i've been software not long that they don't st liver go away. earlier, the u. k announced plans to introduce the limitations that would block prosecutions into alleged crimes related to northern ireland. but there are many members of the om services who continue to face with all that say she was a prosecutions are willing to the seventy's and eighty's and later and we are finally misses the could bring food a solution to this problem to enable the problem to lot of to draw a line under the problem to maybe the people of northern, to move with the council of europe's commissioner for human rights, wrote
9:11 pm
a letter saying the u. k. was denying justice. however, the european court for human rights ruled back in 978, that the 14 men's case did not amount to torture. that decision was later used by the bush administration to justify enhanced interrogation techniques used at bob graham and guantanamo the e. c. h r. rejected a 2018 bid to overturn its ruling. francis mcgowan again says that he and others won't stop fighting, get justice. and apollo in the british government means nothing to me. i think the word and it's more than i acknowledge the fact that what the us, the families, what happens when tunnel black shapes. there's no investigation. so nobody was ever brought the he for the bar last night on his way of subtle down the lag, his clothes are all done on this thing. a bike protect and soldiers nests per saturday, or old soldiers being dragged to the cause. i personally don't believe,
9:12 pm
but as anything whatsoever. do the soldiers we want every kiss in court. we've never lost a cheerful court and we're no farther forward today than we are. billy's policy just stalling and stalling delay at stolid delay or push it back. push it back, push it back, maybe along forget it. but let me go away. we are going away. so we're not stop and we're never going to stop on our children, grandchildren. as a law enforcement says they are overwhelmed. hundreds of migrants are crossing the border irregularly, and you may each day. earlier the county mayor imposed a state of emergency to secure additional resources for dealing with the inflow of people or just kill them up and comments now on the situation and how it's gotten to the point where it is being described as chaos. arizona mexico border is buzzing with activity. 3000 migrants crossed just this weekend and the local sheriff says they are in a hurry. there were
9:13 pm
a lot of people who were planning to come here. but because of the new law, they decided to comment as possible. now the leyden administration recently reinstated the trump administration's policy of having asylum seekers remain in mexico waiting in mexico while their claims are considered. now the sheriff thinks that the administration's actions are fueling the crisis. we told us administration, if they decided to in phoebe, it was going to cause these problems and obviously the ancillary impacts in the upper in our back yard. so we end up with the desk in the desert to the robberies that are happening along the border. the pursuit then lea ancillary criminal activity like large amounts of drugs that are being smuggled into our country. from mexico, all are occurring in every order county along the southwestern board. now the local mayor has declared a state of emergency. he's calling on federal officials for health,
9:14 pm
a 110 agents from the department of homeland security have already been re committed. however, local officials are slamming biden for not doing enough. yuma is facing an escalating humanitarian and bode a crisis, and it's a direct result of the biden administration's poor communication, lack of organization and complete disregard for border protection. but arizona is not alone. florida is also dealing with the migration wave. so the border is obviously a disaster. well, actually the by the administration puts people on planes and flies them into florida in the wee hours of the morning. so they've done over 70 flights in the last 6 months out. com, a harris who was vice president and just recently named border czar by joe biden. doesn't seem to really be on the case. the guam and head of state says he hasn't heard from her since june, despite whitehouse reassurances. why is it that she has not spoken to the president of guatemala since you 6 months?
9:15 pm
i knew that i could see this kind of strange report from the president of guatemala, saying that he has had no contact with the white house, which is inaccurate. other than you're meeting with harris in june, this is the only one. this is the only communication you've had with the biden administration concerning a legal immigration. yet pamela harris is currently touting her program with private companies to bring foreign investment to central america and stop the migrant flow. but how much a trickle of funds from pepsi, cargill and mastercard will actually do, remains unclear. meanwhile, 50000 juveniles seeking asylum had disappeared. according to the country's top migration tracker, when compared case by case record by reco with the previous months data dunk truck received, we find that requisite disappear without explanation truck is repeatedly reached out to the agency executive office of immigration review. the d o j agency. the overseas us immigration cases but has not received any satisfactory explanation. a
9:16 pm
number of these asylum cases continued to disappear each month. researchers say the u. s. department of justice is making it more difficult to track a juvenile migrant cases. providing information that is not useful or precise, but one sheriff will not keep silent. they've already got what over 147000 juveniles, their own a company on the, they need to change their messaging. obviously, when you sit there and say that you're going to do individuals money because they were separated at the boulder, that's just a draw for the cartels and for the criminal wilma to exploit. so now that's why we see a member juveniles come across 1st. and then the parents come late, which as they know that bill it will be reunited. so it's all play on the rules of dis, administration was put in place. the migrant crisis has hung over the biden administration from the beginning. many wonder if there are any real solutions in
9:17 pm
the works, not just reassuring words. caleb bobbin r t new york sang in the united states across the atlantic in new york. politicians are ramping up electricity usage by bidding farewell to gas. the city council voted to eradicate gas in new buildings to combat climate change. the legislation still needs to be signed by mayor, build the blasio but while it accords well with his green new deal plan, not everyone in new york is set on the idea. if the largest city in america can take this critical stat to been gaseous, any city can do the same. this is how to fight back against climate change on the local level and guarantee a green city for generations to come. as long as they can find something more sustainable. sure. but if they're not able to find something and it's at the cost of it and people who need he then i definitely don't agree with that. i think it's important to think about the long term costs and to have options available to
9:18 pm
city. all you need is one blackout and you know, everything goes caput. we're a, i've never heard of old the guess. no, it can happen, but it has it. under the new draft law buildings under 7 floors, new ones in fact will be banned from using gas as an energy source for things such as stoves and boilers. the rules will be enforced by the end of 2023. and then 4 years after that for all new buildings, researchers suggest the measure could cut carbon emissions by 2100000 tons within 2 decades, which in turn can help save on gas connections. however, the cost of living is likely to go up for residents of new york new buildings. now in the northeast of the country, consumers are expected to pay $1500.00 for electric heating this winter. according to the u. s. energy agency that's almost 2 times higher than paying for gas. the executive director of a conservative non profit on hyphenated america,
9:19 pm
says the decision will affect more than just heating bills. we have more proven oil reserves to date. we have more proven natural gas reserves. today we have more proven coal to day than we had 20 years ago. little let alone a 100 years ago. so what source are they planning on using to provide electricity for these buildings? are they planning on using solar power? it's not, would it just affect your energy costs for you to heat your home during water time? it's going to affect everything across the board for stores and charge more because their electricity both going to go. what left is like to attribute that idea as an economic theory to capitalism. but really, the, the downstream effect trickle down if you will of left us policy always is that the consumer ends up paying more. a prominent pro israeli body in the us is looking to bolster its influence on american politics by channeling campaign
9:20 pm
funds to both republicans and democrats who push its agenda. we are launching to buy parties and political action committees, a federal political action committee, and a super political action committee to make us more effective in fulfilling our mission in the current political environment. the american israeli public affairs committee or a pac lobbies for televi tv's interests such as recognition of illegal settlements in palestine and countering iran. it's new political funding drive hopes to have an impact on the 2022, mid terms. max abrams professor of political science at northeastern university in boston says a pac doesn't much care who it funds so long as it gets them influence. it was to make it seem, it's a national group. it wants as many members as possible as much money as possible. and so that means being taken seriously, not just on the right,
9:21 pm
but also on the left. and i think that with these new packs, it will allow a pass to selectively fund and back democratic candidate who pro is real. and in that way, it might help to change the perception which is formed over the past few years. that value is essentially republican. but not the democratic ideal actually has a much broader effect and sense of us media piracy. for example, a pop will take a position on syria and would surely encourage the united states to support his really incursion against, you know, iranian military asset in theory is we are obviously views the wrong as the for most threat to it. and so they talk very often is supporting hard line against
9:22 pm
the wrong on all of these issues, a pack is influential with washington d. c. russia has officially left the open skies, treating an agreement that allows the states to conduct unarmed surveillance flights in each other's aerospace, the decision to withdraw came after the u. s. pulled out last year with commentary . here's our, she's eager to stuff with ruled by russia rather than being a beginning of something big. it is a logical and now in hindsight, a and inevitable conclusion to a process started by washington. when last year it accused moscow or violating the basic principles of this open skies agreement and decided to unilaterally leave the deal. this treaty which was signed all the way back in 1992. it served as a very important confidence build the basically it allowed russia, the us, and some many nato member states to conduct anom surveillance flights over each
9:23 pm
other's military infrastructure. as long as there was a 72 hours heads up when washington decided to withdraw, russia found itself at a disadvantage. basically, neither russia nor washington could conduct such flights anymore. but the european nato members that were still part of this multi lateral motive, bilateral deal. they could still conduct flights over russia's military objects and most who try to get guarantees from its european partners from its partners who are also members of the nato blocker try to get guarantees that they will not pass on any information. whatever information they can gather during such flights to their natural ally, washington, they failed to provide such such assurances, such guarantees. so russia said that it had no other choice but to withdraw itself . so this summer, vladimir putin, the president, signed a law saying that, well, russia will be leaving the deal. and today is officially the day that this deal is
9:24 pm
obsolete. here is a rather special and sweet story. really, doctors in russia have been hailed for performing pioneering surgery on a toddler whose face was covered by a huge birthmark, the young girl from florida under when several operations, and had to overcome several obstacles over the last few years, including the pandemic. oh i now she realizes that her face is different and always she started asking me so she looked at them. your wow, dr pal pump took the black off and isn't that? so now she feels the difference in those. now she was like, wow, it's why now i more like appliances,
9:25 pm
ah ah, you can go to the doctor, i'm very pleased with the results of the work done. there will be no large scale operations, only some aesthetic procedures to improve the appearance every day where we see the messages about like people that want to come to rush, you know, and they want to know what kind of procedure doctor does this procedure that we
9:26 pm
don't have in america or in brazil, or that is it for me. i will be back with your headlines and let's say 34 minutes. this is our international stay with us. ah, ah, my view more broadly is that genocide has taken place. far more than anyone acknowledges it takes place frequently. it has taken place in virtually every country in the world. so why does it come to be called in others political will political mobilization if you remember, wanda, nobody initially one to him or may knew it just i was taking place. nobody wanted to call it that eventually that label came to take place,
9:27 pm
but not at the time when events were unfolding about political ization is if you say it's genocide, is suggest that you need to do something with oil and gas, manufacturing, electricity, telecom transportation, all of them now have a t type of infrastructure connected to the internet was clearly realizing this disruptive potential so that those countries cons, ignore it because it threatens national security issue. but if we take the nato e u countries, virtually all of them subscribe to certain doctrines and maintains selling but tell us closes, they are a cyber army on behalf of a country that's their job. to a
9:28 pm
happy pain. then we have said i had a name, but then they not allowed them to get them outside. and by then coffee says she home, an odd at a by then is a shift of allah. a sudden i cannot get an unmarked source. thank you so much. so it it almost, it was it be happy with the po, mobile and ginger more than that to so that keeps healthy. whoa, whoa, suburban showed leo mars. then we'll do the muffin. remember how to pull from simple so to say what i can the so button i will send me what month
9:29 pm
of may, but i'm not up that i have not had a lot of the loudly on it this year. how and it comes in to say, hey, do what i done, i'm in a j a s, and then to help with my hey what i can now, maybe maybe i'm maybe we can . so welcome to redact. it's night. i have to warn you dear viewers, that the following segment contains violence, foul language, sheer and naked stupidity, birds flying into aircraft, and a romantic relationship between a man and a tank. we're talking about the pentagon budget, ladies and gentlemen, christmas came early for the pentagon. for the rest of us. well here the disappointed screams of pre pubescent boys pierced the christmas morning when they
9:30 pm
discover that there wasn't a new x box waiting for them. instead under the tree children rural, find a copy of the economist. the supply chain crisis issue. some i got you a magazine subscription, free trial, and next month. nonetheless, the pentagon got more money than they were asking for more than a trillion dollars for the next 10 years and $768000000000.00 just for next year. and republicans packed on another $24000000000.00 tip. the chiefs of staff are probably like, we should occupy another country for 20 years and help the taliban take it over. maybe mold over what to do when. anyways, the pentagon is more concerned with profit than it ever has been. why did we lose those wars in iraq and afghanistan? it's because that hasn't been the point. it's been pushing place.
