brush over them talking to her, she got the news, the deaths of innocence and lives destroyed in afghan. the whistleblower lift the lid on america's drone program and come to the operator currently in hiding from the taliban. so talking on her voice is project talk belgian engine is all left to this made is the government decides to close down all nuclear reactors within just 3 years. even though atomic plants generation was part of the country's

electricity. also on the way this morning, who's i'm spending what i think, what's the living room of a house that what i can piece together, what the neighbors are telling me to be home. come tell people who now fled, travels through the battle grounds at the ongoing civil war and atl speaking to civilians who caught up in the company the by that thursday morning to appreciate you joining me here on the international african drone operators working for the united states were kept in the dark about civilian deaths, that's according to a whistleblower who spoke to auntie about his job during the us war on terror. he's currently in hiding from the taliban in fear for his life, refusing even to contact his family and a bid to keep them safe. he shared his story with artes unheard. voices project,

vallejo. we live in a horrible situation. very bad conditions with i honestly, i am fed up with my life that's out of it. so i'm in hiding alone with the way underground. yeah, i can't go outside. i'm hopeless. but then when i ask myself, do i have the right to live a piece for life in my own homeland or not it me said straight, and i wish i had been born in a different country to the head that hasn't been got the telling me that would be long. mm. a pillow top, we had to operate our drones. i was an 8 alice today. and then the same at night there was a u. s. company and the afghan government was signed an agreement with he said we were employed by this company. they scam eagle with

each month one, pilots conducted 17. is it 20 drone strikes? it could be more than that, but not leslie. with a bit of throughout the operations we were not told about any civilian deaths. nobody told us that we had hit the wrong target for that, and the statistics on this were out of our control. we didn't have access to this

data. ah, ah, ah, come in at the pool. we lost a couple of our pilots in the last days of our work in fin after the taliban. so cova when one was arrested and cobbled. and the 2nd, when he was visiting his family, some drone pilots were also beaten and humiliated eligible and 3 or 4 of our colleagues are missing. were they even the closest relatives don't know where they i didn't public sector age stay, blanket is leading. the continued diplomatic effort to ensure safe facets for any american afghan partner or foreign national wants to leave afghanistan. what we are doing every single minute of every single hour of every single day is working to create safe passage for all civilians, including the afghans who work for us to the airport to get them on planes and get

them out. we worked intensely to evacuate and relocate afghans who worked alongside us in our particular risk. reprisals are committed to then as no deadline. oh, let me put it this way. yes, i've lost my own people. no, i'm hiding at different places. i can't stay in one place. i can't meet my family, but i don't even know how my family is doing now. i can't see them with my colleagues. we can't see or contact each other because we are afraid the taliban are tapping our phones. eulu, now we all hopeless. we have lost our way. what can we do? and what will they do to us? we'll counting our last breaths because they might kill us today or tomorrow. i'm a, i have one son staying with me and when he goes out to buy something to eat, he says he is afraid of being killed lot yet. so there is no want to help us in

this situation. i haven't fear and i have to wonder why i was born in this hell. i am a human being. i have the right to free life. after the last american joint strike in afghan stan killed 10 civilians, including 7 children. the pentagon emitted that been a mistake though also said no us person, i would be punished for more stories on how the war on terror enough again astonish, change, lies. check out on heard voices project available on the web site. he's got the paradoxical and counter productive. that's how belgian engineers have described the government decision to de nuclear ice. the country over the next 3 years. brussels will shut down all of his nuclear reactors and re direct investment into new technologies. the government's decision to phase out nuclear energy, the largest source of low carbon energy in belgium, and to finance new fossil gas power plants is paradoxical and counterproductive.

this decision would only reinforce the predominance of fossil fuels in the belgian energy landscape. well, currently there are 2 nuclear plants in belgium, containing 7 reactors. they generate almost half of the country's electricity authorities, say avoiding nuclear energy will make power production safer, and is in line with the common e. you goal to go green, but it all comes to europe grapples with an energy crisis. the seen prices soaring to record highs, for example in neighboring france and germany known for their nuclear power capabilities. the cost of atomic energy has spiked and to perish, closed $1.00 of his plans and halted operations at another over suspected security system faults. as for germany and intense close all its nuclear power stations, by the end of next year, starting with its broke off side on new year's eve, close will leave the country with 3 nuclear power stations. germans of met this news with mixed reaction. i found it was on and it has its pros and cons,

but actually here in brook there for only so advantages other countries are building nuclear power plants to and the question is where do we get our electricity from? and it isn't. yeah, this is finally it's happening and i'm very happy about it because you never know if an accident might occur or thought people might try to destroy it. yes, of course. are people in the village to see things differently because the village has become rich on taxpayers, money. if you drive through the village and we'll see how much was invested in it. and i think it's an important decision, but i also think we're not there yet. we can't get from renewable energy. we getting from nuclear power. many locals work there. we have to see where they will end up, but some people will definitely lose their jobs. we discussed this issue with charlie boyle, an independent journalist, and ryan eclipse, the chairman of a german nuclear activist organization. a solar and wind alone can never replace

nuclear because solar and wind are not available 100 percent of the time while nuclear is so you have to fill the gaps with fossil generation. and this is a tremendous harm for the climate because belgium replace is a low carbon energy form by a carbon intensive form of electricity. and this is just the opposite of climate protection. what belgium is doing here, i have no understanding for this decision. the belgian java or government has taken it is it is of no use for the climate it's. it's not climate protection, it's, it's arming the climate and it's purely either logical read reason of the green party once again it's, it's all about like

a plan and it's seen as a point score and the policy may well those beliefs. but as usual practice, counties always take home and now the reality is sinking in high inflation. a huge demand surge and going into it. and we, we simply can't have a situation where energy crisis is going up. 1200 percent here for the next 3 or 4 years. so i think it's going be a mixture of a $26.00 and the bearing app. i've said many times before, we need to have a plan around the world. but country by country having a transition transition to renewables, i would say what the mixture is going to be and we're going to be, i need to be honest about lisa ones which are completely a new you reforms says that all parties in ethiopia,

civil war have committed atrocities, they include rape, unlawful killing, and torture. the rufus conflicts being waged by the triggering people of liberation front and the government of the correspondent pool asleep traveled to the country and met with some of his victims a 135 kilometers from the capital city of addis ababa in a city called deborah bad hon. now, this is the 1st 30 when you're coming from the capital where you get a sense of the impact of the fighting over the past few weeks in the past few days . and that is because the victims rate victims, people who were that soldiers, people who witness to tell people if the grand people's liberation party and the supporters have been largely because the hospitals in the areas that were under fighting were completely destroyed. so this is the main hospital here. we're going to try and get in and see if we can talk to some of the victims and to some of the

doctors about what is happening. and they've witness so far. about $25.00 women where i'd meet that in norfolk and the majority of women were treated in discharge. recall with beta improvement and the remaining contain saturday to meet here has been kind of easy to them. and one of the calamities, 80 years old woman. yeah. 8180. and she was rapes. yeah. shaped and you kind of media cut the thing, she's not in our hospital by heating the news. it's very shocking guineas wrapping 80 years old woman pants. and if they st. let's say that either it's cause it's cause also a cause or otherwise ecology. ah,

can you often if they've okay to talk to us at that one into their oh i nathan. when i was asleep during the 19 knocked on the door and said, please open the door, then he punched me. took me down and rate me. i don't know him. he was a stranger with a gun. i'll never forget what he did to me. ah . when they came to my home accusing me of being the wife of one of their enemies, i denied it, but they just burst into my home, tied me up and then for them raped me. i was in the 5th month of my pregnancy and i lost the baby. i'm not sure if i'll ever be fine again. i normally do teaching on

the high school teacher. but after the war broke out, i just came here to add to the thoughts baton. bought into younger berman, so died. she's best, it's best to not start to wash as we see the cnn, bbc and roswell. pour. let me know that international media we are doing together with the forces because we have seen in going to place people who are caught by the soldiers were said under the so just a little cold. but just they said, we are for money told by our leaders waiting to be on the banner uniforms. re people key and see what they've up to him. blame japan soldiers. ok. they produce that movie. they produce quite effect pictures from different places. and so they

said they've done government, the government has bombarding touch with and i, well now we're going to go to a nearby town. we're actually most of the rape victims come from off the, during their harrowing stories. we now go and see the actual damage that was left behind. ah, ah, i'm standing in what i think was the living room of a house. that's what i can piece together. what the neighbors are telling me. use to be home. some 10 people who've now fled and have taken refuge with family in addis ababa in the capital city. i mean, the town of attire and the grand people's liberation front, and the allies came here at least a time. so that's

a different occasion. and the last time they stayed for 18 days. so as you can see, they've completely destroyed homes like this. i mean there's absolutely nothing. so not only did they lose the home, but they also burn it when they lift and not only are people feel afraid to come back, but there's really not much to come back to. i mean, if you look yes, even the window frame. absolutely. everything has been taken everything. ah, the wall has been raging for just over a year and the government chief, promising it will soon. but for people who live here, it's already too late. they've lost everything hoarsely, a r t e c o p u and human rights council, lily a voted for an independent investigation into the atrocities committed by all sides

. and the government crackdown if you could re self proclaimed the decision politically motivated and refused to cooperate. experts will need a year to place further evidence and build prosecution cases are rapidly spreading cancer, deteriorating, living conditions and pollution. these are what people of the united states region of florida dealing with because of phosphate binding. that's what critics say. people fight for their land and the health of mining giant, acute polluting waterways plans, opening another site. auntie will area documentary about the situation in florida. that's coming up. but for now, here's a quick preview. one of the most toxic places in america. oh, florida. one of florida's biggest industries and best kept secrets is sponsoring in the biggest player in the $85000000000.00 industry is most day tonight. there are reports of millions of gallons in terminated water now flowing into the florida

aqua for from the chronic. they don't work polish thing, but that's what i'm in 2013 my uncle, our family dog, my brother who was 21 years old, myself and my father were all wrong from the broad wow. yeah. all right. yeah. and they could play there. right? yeah. yeah, maybe they'll actually work that help is more important than money. well, the company responded to accusations made in the documentary by saying that it doesn't accurately portray the cancer risks associated with mining. also claiming that phosphate is not a chemical early this year, a 1000000 gallons a waste water from one form of mining facility of another company linked in florida, the states building an injection well to pump out the remaining water that

something environmentally say could also lead to dangerous consequences for the state raising the question of how much the industry homes, the lives of florida citizens. so make eric crown, who may that documentary shed with his his reasons for addressing the question. as i was traveling around the world doing a lot of direct action conservation work, i started to see that right in my own back yard. we had these issues where we were poisoning children in a way that regularly is actually regulated and allowed. so, you know, as soon as i saw that i thought this is something we can stop and if the environmental cancers, if we're able to stop them, it's our obligation to investigate and stop them from continuing. one interesting thing is they're allowed to do their own testing is fast, so they simply do their own tests and then provide the results to the state. so there is no oversight. you act on this entire industry statewide. and that is where we're finding the difficulties. you know,

i was able to come up with it by going through the public records of the different counties that have mining and mining areas and they're all they're leading cause of death was cancer and their rates were extremely higher. i spoke to a lot of people that had been silenced by them by music directly. as a matter of fact, one person who spoke of recently had a gag order placed on them where they could not speak publicly about mosaic, which i just thought was crazy. actually, the gag order said you're not allowed to speak about music on facebook in for somebody to lose the 1st amendment, right. like that. that shows a lot of influence in the area. you know, we find that most it goes through and they kind of gain the favor of a lot of people by putting a lot of money into the local communities. but at the same time they're, they're presenting this nice picture while they're also getting everybody sick at the same time. you know, and it was, it was maddening for me because we did find cancer causing chemicals, and it was proven in the movie. we even found one of their outfalls had there,

there's a level that they're not supposed to go over and we found that level and we tested the water of radiation. so we're finding that there's, there's just, again, there's no oversight into this type of an industry. and they kind of rush shot over everybody in the local areas. and you can most of the commentary later today or not channel, as well as tomorrow, right through the day a restaurant owner in the jo city of keels refusing to change his establishment name from the malls head, which locals are that just racist under on the webpage originally from nigeria told us why he's sticking with it or not more than cough i don't feel discriminated against in any way. warren. coff does not races to me. morrow. moore's head has no degrading meaning at all. the name more has a positive connotation. so black people consider the name races, but not many, some of those black to see the name as discriminatory, were pushed in that direction by clueless german. trying. those blacks have no self

awareness. i'm old enough and have the knowledge and brains know when my feelings are hurt. i don't know white people to explain to me when my feelings are hurt. while the term more house calls control c, before in germany, activists decrying it's alleged colonial connotation. successfully petition to get burdens form more. st. renamed, the influx of migrants into germany over recent years is made some the increasing me aware of the possible offence. certain words may cause even traditional children . songs are being scoured with the popular 3 chinese with the double bass leading to legal action of its alleged racial overtones. and it's not just the germans, the are being commission created a full by issuing guidelines on inclusive language. it's suggestive, for example, avoiding supposedly loaded words such as christmas, a man made politicians for the right, the panelists on the initiative and got a cancelled restaurant. sir andrew, no echo again explained why the idea was wrong headed from the start the munch

dimension. most people need to realize the police in a language does not prevent racism, that i've been in germany for almost 30 years now. and i wonder who are the victims of the language that is spoken here every day about it's not the black people. i can't imagine a black person here getting his high school diploma then wanting to study at university and someone saying you're not allowed to study here. that doesn't happen much, much, much if you are entitled to a post. no one will say, you won't get this post because you're a blacker error, asian. there is no such thing. you shouldn't import that from the u. s. to germany . that's why i think this discussion is wrong, shameful, and absolutely ridiculous. what is being said by politicians and the public is the wrong thing to do. racism in germany is being fought in the wrong way. u. s. cities as in crime race comparable to the 1900 ninety's with some areas breaking all time records for homicide. this is prompted men to jump off the de fun,

the police bandwagon, chicago and the tourist problems, yvonne crime among those not looking to boost law enforcement again. serious crime makes the headlines almost daily. most recently, a more shootout in the suburbs and a double robbery of high and brands, stores situated opposite one another local media also report shoot that happening. even in one safe neighborhoods, scogel mer, lightfoot, who previously wanted to slash police funding. so the situation is forcing her to do the opposite. i have formerly asked the attorney general of the united states merrick garland too, with all deliberate haste, detail, a t f. agents to chicago for 6 months, so that we can increase the number of gun investigations and seizures in chicago. according to chicago police, there were hundreds of all shootings in the city this year than last, when there were more than $3000.00 and murders, also sort of significant spike. san francisco is also battling

a crisis drugs. last year it's very promised to redirect millions from police, but now she says that the city needs to enforce the law more aggressively. when police officer, dominic is though, says verifications, made it harder for the police to do the job. the crime in chicago is out of control if you are considering coming to the chic city, chicago for vacation, you've never been here. do not come here. do not try to enjoy the streets of michigan avenue in state street. your chances of being mugged carjacked shot, stabbed, beaten, are extremely high. chicago is out of control. the police are not allowed to do their jobs. when the police do their jobs are vilified by the media. they're vilified by the local government. they're vilified by the mayor's office or vilified by the citizens. you are not safe if you come to chicago, joe, until the state steps up and does their job. you're going to have complete utter, lawless, and chaos here. and chicago's going to it's, it's, it's drowning. it's, it's drowning and i don't know if it can be saved. it's laughable. it shouldn't even be up for discussion why we're looking at, laurie lightfoot,

who refused the help from the federal government when a different president was novice. but now, because one aligns with her political view, she does it. this is, this is offensive. it's very sad. we have to remove all emotions when we talk about this so that we're not looking like we're taking a person's character. but we have to attack with a person is or is not able to do. she is not able to lead. she is unqualified. she is. she is an utter utter failure. who needs to be removed from office? a get a reps up for this news. are you watching all take really appreciate company to me from day in 30 minutes. ah ah. join me every thursday on the alex silent. sure. i'll be speaking to guess in the world politics. small business. i'm show business. i'll see you then. mm.

for special yes. today, the only in the legendary fire style author of planet ponzi match nice to see the holidays ah ah ah hello and welcome to cross stock were all things are considered. i'm peter lavelle . there is no such thing as unilateral security. all real security is always collector. this is precisely how russia views, endless western hostility and nato expansion to the east. moscow is presented ways

to avoid conflict and assure all security is the west to sleep at the switch. ah, discuss these issues and more, i'm joined by my guess, marcus papadopoulos in london. he is a historian, analyst, and author of the book arise, receive the return of russia to world politics. and in budapest we have towards semi, well, he is a podcast to read the gaggle which can be found on youtube and locals are generally crossed up rules in the fact that means you can jump in any time you want. and i always appreciate it. i start out in budapest year. george, it's been about a week now. since all of the russians have sent 2 proposals to the united states and nato. we've gotten mixed reactions from the foreign policy blob, a peer, apparently. in july, there'll be some kind of talks in geneva again, really that information on that. and it seems to me that the,

with the russians have made a very clear case that they feel that their security is being threatened and they have a solution to improve. and protect the security of all and we can go into that. but the reaction to it is, is mediocre at best. and the last thing i want to make this clear to all our viewers, the last thing the russians want to hear is, yeah, we'll sit down and talk the time to talk is come to an end their documents on the table and go through them and let sign them publicly. george. you summarize that? excellent. be there. i think that's exactly what the russians saying, which is that we have been saying the same thing to you over and over again starting from 1991 when a go or assurances from the west of the west will not expand

into space left. i believe the withdrawal so ok and you know with complaint again and again the west is treated, complains with content and just say, you know, you lost the call, you know, then the race. and now that the political situation has changed very much in an adverse fashion. where was this so playing this game of coming up with these silly, legalistic arguments like every country has the summer and right to decide its own security arrangement. and, and in any case we, we never promised you anything. and even if we didn't promise you anything, we didn't put it in writing. and in any case, it was a defensive alliance. however much it makes span all the way to central asia. the chinese all is still a defensive alliance as are coming up with this kind of nonsense. and.
