a day of celebration has become a day of frustration and chaos with thousands of wooden travellers who instead of spending christmas with their friends and family of been refused to fly, what's more, passengers are complaining. they're only allowed to check in 2 hours before departure. the result, people missing slice and planes being delayed. it comes as of tons of cancels a dozen long distance flights and for spins popular connections, g to low demand and pilots, falling sick. some 33000 connections have been cancelled. that if we temp planned flight and b, lufthansa chief was angry at the european union, he said that the company would have to carry out a 2000 empty flights to follow e rule and not to move landing sloths at various airports. while climate friendly exemptions were found in almost all other parts of the world during the time of the

pandemic, the e u does not allow this in the same way that harms the climate and is exactly the opposite of what the commission wants to achieve. meanwhile, these bodies to, for those who are planning the holidays across the atlantic, the 2 biggest american airlines, delta and united, have cancelled around $200.00 flights according to the carriers. the reason is a spike in only concave bases and to quote, an exhaustion of options. and resources, this follows a call to the us authorities by the delta t o who off to cut quarantine for fully vaccinated people to 5 days from the current. tim, these developments come several months after the fi. oh, of another american eylandt. southwest ordered his employees to be fully vaccinated against by the same. let's take a look at how this happened several months ago. let

me choose choose the. i've never been in favor of corporations imposing and that kind of a mandate executive order from president biden mandates. it all federal employees and then all federal contractors have to have a mandate invalid vaccine in place by december, the 8th. so we're working through that

was in hopes of millions of libyans to choose any direction for their country. have been shattered after elections on friday. were cooled off, but decision came off, the walls began providing round the capital tripoli, raising fears of another civil war. but as always, he goes on off reports, delaying the vote could serve certain outside interests. this year promised to bring a tectonic change for libya, a chance to revitalize its political life and hold in election. the 1st one since the whole decade of lawlessness and in fighting. but local militias had their opinion on this whole democracy. not on our watch said a bunch of warlords, as the internationally recognized government fled into hiding. the us is predictably disappointed. almost as of this armed takeover was and led by the

personal mob of sala body, a militant, once celebrated armed and funded by the west. when both sides pursued a common goal, we will deny the regime arms cut off at supplies of cash, assist be opposition, and work with other nations to hasten the day when gadhafi leaves power. the un greenlit nato's bombing campaign and bombs hail down on libya. as per the un resolution, sorties were meant to protect civilians. as per you and statistics, some 60 people actually perished under nato bombs. and some activists actually believe real figures to be much higher. but they did the job, we can, could duffy forces enough for local militants to finish him off on the ground without any trial. oh,

when he came, we saw he died. but the triumph of democracy did not come. instead, libya a once prosperous and promising oil rich nation turned into a lucrative pi up for carving to be split amid goons and warlords. ah ah. ah,

hillary clinton did not laugh any more as she was watching an american consulate being rushed by a murderous mob. killing the ambassador. i asked myself, how could this happen? how could this happen in a country we helped liberate in a city? we helped save from destruction. those libyans who had nowhere to flee, had to survive in this hot mess of the international community's creation for a whole decade. this selection was there a dim light of hope at normality, but miss berlin asked for the elections. i think it's in the interest of the libyan people and libyan state to emerge out of this crisis after years of darkness and to avoid all problems and political disputes in the coming years. then of sarah hash avenue, honestly, the libyan people were disappointed. there are $2800000.00 registered voters, then suddenly they manipulate their feelings and decide to cancel the elections.

libyan people reject this principle. they want these elections to start building a country that embraces everyone in this venue that in to her, i believe that postpone in the elections isn't in the interest of the libyan people . the commission has dashed to hopes of billy been people because the delay means more corruption here. what does it instead, they got yet another chance to confirm for themselves that right now, whoever has more guns in libya, rules and any sort of western backed leadership will be serving only for as long as the warlords allow it to. obviously the main culprit is nato, which destroyed a sovereign nation, the most prosperous nation in africa before the nato bombing. it converted libya into a failed state. the us doesn't care about democracy either at home here. i don't think they care about it. and libby, i think what they care about is having

a compliant country that will allow the us and other western countries to pillage its resources. i don't think they really care whether there are election there or not. in the i certainly don't think they want elections that would result in a leader being elected that would protect libya's national sovereignty and resources. ah, well, richard man has taken an apparent swamp at cnn in an interview, tesla boss, element jokes. he is not perverted enough to appear on the news network. what was it you said the? the requirement for being a cnn georgiana is? are you, are you pervert voted or no? well, not clear follows a series of control sees at c n, n. anchor chris cuomo was recently fired, lying about helping out his brother then governor of new york. both siblings, when accused of sexual misconduct and other sienna,

presented don lemon has been seed for sexually assaulting a man in a bar, a plain he denies. and most recently produced john griffin was charged with sex crimes involving children. we spoke with legal media analyst law. now he said he must quit, was actually genuine condemnation of the new show. no, it's not a joke and bad taste. it's the truth about a network in bad taste. let's go back to what chris cuomo did. not only was he providing strategy to his brother, but he was working with his governor staff, one in particular. and he was talking about basically, how they could celine besmirch in, impede the reputation of those women who might be making these allegations of the 1st place. so now this transcends strategy sessions from going and deliberately targeting and the conspiracy to impugn the integrity of women who dared complain about untoward behavior. this is not at all consistent. so one thing i wanna

just explain, i think of 2022 brings something to bear along with the death and the destruction and the, the, the internment of, of, of, or in terms of i should say of cnn is the fact that what is really news today is not what people think. sometimes a satirical is more, is more on point now as far as see and n, he's absolutely correct. so prediction year to be to be waxing vatike in python a, it's going to be over for that wretched news organization before you know it because everything that mr. musk said is true, the regulators in germany are apparently ready to flout international treaties. and they're warned on joe and says the shadow ought to be is. the outlet got us for gas license in serbia, which like germany, is part of the european convention of trans frontier television. something berlin

seemed to have forgotten. nicky iron investigates just hours after the launch of artes, bronze, new german language channel, you tube blocked it, belly a week later. german regulators force european satellite operator, utah sat, who suspended south despite all t holding a satellite transmission license in serbia. giving the right to broadcast in germany under a council of europe agreement. yet for germany authorities, it's not enough. the unauthorized start broadcasting of the kremlin channel r t d is an undisguised, a front to our current law and well established media policy. anyone who has a broadcasting license in serbia does not have one for the e. you the program managers know that for sure, the more your take on this, this regional and local news platform and exclusive cnn affiliate. similar to r t d. this channel broadcasts in serbia on a license issued elsewhere, in this case look some book. but unlike r t d,

it doesn't have the thumbs up from the european convention on trans friends here television. what it does have is friends in high places. the european found for reconstruction and development, the european commission on the top investment fund, the k. k, are headed by disgrace for my c. i a chief david portray a little bit for it. the tragic iranian portray is the man who took part in the military destruction of serbia in the 90s. now setting up media that have not been lost on observers. more disturbing, still, the mon now invested in bringing objective information to the people. in 2010, recruited the 1st army of internet trolls. of course k, k ready controls a large number of internet companies. and there are other things worth a 2nd look like the alleged lack of transparency investigations into k k all have found a lot of goes to offshore companies mushrooming and tax havens and

a bit to hide the original owners and find national networks for at least last 6 years, millions of you have been exchanged for shares of affiliated companies. war than hundreds of millions of lawns, capital reductions and increases in occasional incredible amounts and ultimately material payments of capital shares, which are extremely difficult to trace or verify. at the times, levine is tele mac, and serbia's broadband were taken over by u. s. investment firm key our which controls billions of dollars in assets worldwide. so here we have at 2 channels, the both sister channels of big news outlets, both with transmission license is issued in foreign countries. only one with the knowledge from the european convention on trans frontier, television, the other the brain shout of some questionable stakeholders. one barely last week, yet the other is celebrating 7 years on the f saying that sometimes it's not what do you know? but who you know?

we spoke would serve in filmmaker amy at the store itself. he doubts the german ruggedized rat alone and taking r t d e offer. this is a reaching the, also the t all the talk of what it means. because at the moment when the technology goes all the way around, anywhere, you don't have the borders. you're getting a, one of the stations that he love to see because it's documentary programs and parts of the world that are going to treat germany cannot stand it. and i'm just afraid that this is the, just the autonomous, a german decision. i think this is much higher scale. oh or that is just thought that you years ago for freedom breast does not exist anymore. everything is transferred to ideology. you suffer because you don't polish reality. they want the george to be ally, ally to be a through this is why semester and the problem for them is that you are opening the

windows to which we can see what is the real life of the people. what is the real mission of the people against elite fights that you have to go forward? you have to find the ways to, to, to, to, to go forward. because as much as they press you, you will have a more and more audience still to come. this allen, russia, sounding in all my but ukraine's ministry spending sludge on. it's like the intentions in the east of the country. story on more off the brake with when you listen to a sequence of tones and you think acts is going to happen. you know, why happen instead of distinctive bringing responses and gauge that are relevant

to you, how we experience reward and pleasure? well, listening to some people look at this is kind of a kind of choreographing of our expectations to ah ah

ah, welcome back. more than half a people in the u. k. are too scared to say what they really think a new paul found their word about being canceled by friends, colleagues, or even their own families. auntie shutting ed was dashti, has the store. council culture is silencing academics, a gagging public figures and wiping celebrities off the face of the planet. wait, can i really say that? who knows? but i not the only one biting my tongue as according to you got poll. majority of brits are living in fear of well being canceled. the majority of britons 57 percent say they have at least sometimes found themselves stopping themselves from expressing their political or social views for fear of judgment or negative responses from others. the id or password can be cancelled, or in other words, blocked from having a platform is happening to hundreds with a very similar cycle. you say something offensive receive a public backlash, and suddenly you're gone done

a finish cancelled by by. but it's still only happening to big names and faces. but people like you and me. work online on dates and even at home. i think we're living in a coach now of bullying, bullying in workplaces a government as that actually. so i think people are frightened to always say what they feel in case there's a come back home. and so the main she may just seem to have one. so a point of view of everything and so if you say in different you get what you get caught or has to think there's a lot of things for the climate change cove age or whatever. there's no discussion that is the narrative and you of the group, or we should cause you down a lot of issues where you fear fred, very careful about what you say and not right now, a good debate. and we used to have a good healthy democracy. we have a debate and country where you could say things and then you'd have to all your

case and some people just don't want to argue. i want to hear the ever argument. i just want to shut you down and say, no, you can't tell you that you don't allowed to say that i thought device. the traditional approach of apology atonement forgiveness is no longer enough to warrant if they weren't accountability, social justice boycott. and the more controversial the view on any hot topic like race, immigration breck, that the more you should keep your thoughts yourself and your mouth shop most with less progressive views on device of social topics. feel more reluctant to voice their opinion. some say rather than being politically correct, the whole thing has been spelled out of control into his social media, merciless mob rule. but i haven't felt some from taking the risk of being cancelled . like for instance, j. k. rowling and anti trust public position. worse bees, freedom of slavery, ignorance is trans. the meanest individual. hurrah! too is a woman? well, that wasn't her only comment. there's been plenty more. and as a result,

she's been wiped off the face of the earth even by the world. she created the, bought the community and the movie production team deleted have from scripts. meanwhile. * r h b yos. 20th anniversary. she was bored. not only that, a number of couldn't leaks gas they really do exist, announced their rebranding to distance themselves away from j. k. rowling, the tough. that's a trans exclusionary radical feminist. but there are others in her potty school of thought. chicky raleigh wrote all the harry potter books by herself and they canceled her because she said gender was a fact. and then the trans community got mad and they started calling her turf trans, exclusionary radical feminist onto turf, gender as a fact. well, trans employees and allies at netflix stage to walk out forcing the c e o to publicly apologize when you ah

meanwhile team tough relished in the drama. if this is what being cancels is like i love it. the song. 4 continues as monty python star, terry gilliam got cancelled for endorsing chapels. netflix special shortly after the old vic right here in london announcer pulling his shirt into the woods from its november schedule. it is very said that a great cultural institution, like the old vig allowed itself to be intimidated into cancelling our production of into the woods by small group of closed minded humor, averse i. d o. x on their stuff. my unspeakable crime was recommending my facebook followers to watch netflix special by brilliant and provoked if american committed they did, and civilization didn't collapse. ok, so that's on the most extreme end of the scale. but at the end of the day,

how hard is it not to say something that's obviously donning turns out really hard indeed cancel culture. this cancelling this punishment, it's everywhere. punishment. and i for and i, you said that therefore you must never work again. sooner or later the counselors will win. oh, british actors of prime time tele more in let been thinks even comedy is now on the verge of being cancelled. it's a bit like laughter in church. something has to be forbidden to make you really laugh to make you belly last. it's when you shouldn't be laughing. and so therefore, all the things that are being canceled out, or i'm afraid the things that i've always made people laugh. so is it time to cancel, cancel culture, because pretending somebody doesn't exist because they've touched a nerve, it's a temporary slope. as let's face it. we've all upset someone somewhere haven't we

must have caught slapped google with a $98000000.00 fine for failure to remove continents. funds on the russian law by the decision of the court. google was found guilty of an administrative offense. a punishment was imposed in the form of an administrative fine of 7200000000 roubles . facebook has been given a small, a fine of $27000000.00 for the same violation. the moscow court found that the to us tech john failed the late home like $5000.00 illegal items, including von and unexplained with content. in both rulings, the penalties were based on corporate turnover and it was fine. is the largest ever imposed on id company in russia? in while those books parent company matter has given its reaction, saying the ruling will back fire on russian companies and international course. and google, i said it will consider the ruling and decide on its next steps. we discuss the issue with previously. activists and tech expert will new fine of $98000000.00 is,

is hardly going to really make not much of a difference to google. i expect google to possibly provide a number excuses for the problems that it's having. the sheer volume of stuff on the web means that it is a very thankless task. and it has a real difficulty because now there is content appearing all the time. these companies are being expected to moderate a lot of the content. and the moment the organizations like twitter ban on the president of the united states or other people on our platforms, we're reaching a point where they are actually making editorial interventions. and is the speeds and the extent to which they're able to make these interventions. that is going to be critical that needs their results is not the game we're getting backwards. it, but not all the regulators are off to them. there are some regulators such as the regulator and ireland that appears to be quite complicit with the st. john's.

russian foreign ministry security trying to prepare and crusade against its own population that soft kevin out the surge military spending parties more on garcia has more. well, this is the latest development in, in a sue of events that have read are lead russia to believe that ukraine is indeed planning a military solution. an invasion the troublesome for them. eastern ukraine region, the conflict region. and they are planning with this latest boost at military spending 20 percent of the time when you crane is experiencing difficulties keeping its population warm this winter. moreover, russia is especially concerned with thousands and thousands of foreign troops for private military contractors as well as instructors who are on a permanent basis thou stationed in ukraine 10000 and all 4000 of them. american citizens, he dislike. i think that was all this took

a foreign serviceman being there to participate and quote, measures to insure national security and defense. and another quote to deter russian military aggression is a lie. these instructors are simply engaged in direct incitement and directly controlling the events that unfolding before our eyes. ukrainian authorities have also made it easier for foreign nationals get ukrainian citizenship, which, which some believe is an effort to circumvent that to bypass the minsk agreements which are call on all sides, evolved to the conflict in east ukraine to remove disarm and remove foreign fighters from the conflict, so let me putin also speaking earlier regarding the situation in ukraine, said that there is tremendous a tremendous roof, a concern, and that russia truly fears war breaking out in easton, you credit to be a number that way, knowing that now they are saying, whoa, whoa, whoa, are impression is that they could be preparing a 3rd military operation and

a wanting us in advance. don't interfere, don't protect those people. and if you do, then there will be such and such new sanctions. maybe that's what they're planning or as an improve, lend defense minutes to show who had both previous previously said that there are hundreds of thousands, millions of ethnic russians in ukraine in the conflict so that russia would have no choice but to protect if worst comes to worst they hope, of course the bloodshed can be avoided, that all sides will return to the negotiation table and the means ke agreement will be implemented. but aside so far are worrying. we heard just several days ago from the russian defense ministry that they have information about more than a 100 american citizens who are in the front law on the front lines in the trenches, in east ukraine, advising and directing ukrainian forces there preparing perhaps even a provocation. with the use of chemical weapons, even we have heard comments from the pentagon in the white house. again,

categorically denying those claims. nevertheless, it does go to show how, how hot the situation is have tense. the situation is how hot passions are and how much mistrust. there is just come out to help us for the morning here in moscow. boom bust heading away shortly. stayed seed with us and next hour or more global news headline. ah, so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it, treaty, confrontation, let it be an arms race, his on offense, very dramatic development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and.
