canada. what we're doing every single minute of every single hour of every single day is working to create safe passage for all civilians, including the afghan, to work for us to the airport, to get them on planes and get them out. we worked intensely to evacuate and relocate and work alongside us and our particular risk of reprising. our commitment to them has no deadline of let me put it this way and yet i've lost my own people. know i'm hiding at different places. i can't stay in one place. i can't meet my family. 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 phone. is me, i
5:06 am
guess we have lost our way. what can we do and what will they do to us? we are counting our last breast. they might kill us today or tomorrow. i have one son staying with me and when he goes out and buy something to eat, he says he is afraid of being killed or kept. so there is no one to help us in this situation. i live in here and i have to wonder why i was born in this hell, i am a human being. i have the right to free life. while the u. s. admission in afghanistan defends the drone program, saying that the african army can now operate it without outside assistance. get more stories on how the world tarver enough can astonish, changed lives. check out our unheard voices, projects by heading to r t dot com with a new you and report says that all parties in ethiopia, civil war have committed atrocities, thing clued, rape unlawful killing,
5:07 am
and torture. the roosters conflicts being waged by the 2 great people of liberation front, an ethiopian government, all the correspondent pul, asleep traveled to the country and met with some of the victims. i'm a 135 kilometers from the capital city of addis ababa in a city called deborah b at han. now this is the 1st when you're coming from the capital, when 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 victim rate victims, people who work that soldiers, people who witness the people's liberation party and the supporters have 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 whatnot. so far
5:08 am
about $25.00 women where i'd meet that in norfolk and the majority of women were treated and we started to call the beta improvement. and the remaining 10 started to meet that here has been kind of easy to them. and one of the calamities for 80 years old woman. yeah. 8180. and she was raped. yeah. she wrapped and you kind of meeting the said she's not in our hospital by heating the news. it's very shocking getting raping a woman tense. and if they say that either it's because it has also as it has or otherwise i
5:09 am
can you often if they've okay to talk to us, is that one into oh, [000:00:00;00] i mean 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 raked 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 6 months of my pregnancy and i was the baby. i'm not sure if i'll ever be fine again. i normally do teaching. i'm
5:10 am
high school teacher. but after the war broke out, i just came here to at least always be abundant. younger but a man said i'd, she's best, it's best to not start the wash. we see the cnn bbc data and runs 24. let me know that international media we are doing together with the forces because we have in place that people who are caught by the soldiers was that under the so just a little intel. but they said, we are formally told by our leaders for waiting to be on there. if you're gonna force a uniform is xandra, people can see whatever to in blame day to be on the soldiers. ok. they produce that movie. they produce quite effect pictures from different i don't just places and they say to me,
5:11 am
but government bombarding churches and i well not willing to go to a nearby town where actually most of the right victims come from hearing their harrowing stories. we now go and see the actual damage that was left behind who's i'm standing, 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 about in the capital city. i mean, the town of kaya and the program people liberation front and the allies came here at least 8 times. so that's
5:12 am
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 it's absolutely nothing. so not only did they lose the home, but they also burn it when they lift and not only are people still afraid to come back, but there's really not much to come back to. i mean, if you look yeah, 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 in soon. but for people who live here, it's already too late. they've lost everything. policy a r t e c. ok. the you and human rights council early a voted for an independent investigation into atrocities committee by all sides.
5:13 am
and the government crackdown if you pier itself proclaimed the decision politically motivated and refused to cooperate. experts say they'll need at least a year to collect evidence and build prosecution cases. ah, paradoxical and counter productive. that's how belgian engineers have described a government decision to deem nuclear rise. the country over the next 3 years. brussels will be shutting down all of this nuclear reactors and redirect investment into new technology. the government's decision to phase out nuclear energy, the largest source of flow, 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. currently, there are 2 nuclear plants in belgium, with 7 reactors, they generate almost half of the countries electricity. the 30 said that avoiding nuclear energy will make power production safer,
5:14 am
and that it's in line with the company you goal of going green. but it all comes in europe grappling with an energy crisis. the same price is soaring to record highs. neighboring france, germany known for the nuclear power capabilities, the cost of atomic energy is spiked of the paris closed the plant and halted operations at another wall of a suspected security system. false as germany. it intends to close all the nuclear power stations by the end of the year, starting with the broke off site on new year's eve. closure will leave the country with 3 nuclear power stations. the germans have responded to the news. we mixed reactions on a forefront enough time. it has its pros and cons, but actually here in bergdorf we only saw advantages other countries are building nuclear power plants to and the question is, where do we get our electricity from? and it 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. of course, the people in the village to see things differently because the village has become rich on taxpayers,
5:15 am
money. if you drive through the village and see how much was invested in its hello, ethan. so i think it's an important decision, but i also think we're not there yet. we can't get from renewable energy, and we're, we're getting from nuclear power of many locals works there. and we have to see where they will end up. but some people will definitely lose their jobs. we discussed this issue with independent janice, charlie boyle. and ryan a clute is the chairman of a german nuclear activist organization. the 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, but belgium is doing here. it is,
5:16 am
it is of no use for the climate. it's, it's not climate protection it's, it's harming 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 seen as a point score and, and these positions may well those beliefs. but as usual practice, counties always take home. and now the reality is sinking in or high inflation. a huge demand search. i'm going in the winter and we, we simply can't have a situation where energy crisis is going up 1200 percent year. we need to have probably don't plan around the world, but country by country as to how to get a transmission transmission to renewables. i was going to say what the mixture is going to be going to be. i need to be honest about me, which are completely fine scar. a german restaurant,
5:17 am
sir says that he will not be changing the name of his establishment, which has been called races by some local. we'll hear from the owner of the more said to sell to the shop. ah oh, is your media a reflection of reality? in the world transformed what will make you feel safer, isolation or community? are you going the right way or are you being led to somewhere? direct? what is true was is great. in the world corrupted,
5:18 am
you need to descend, who join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. for special gas today, the only in the legendary mid fire stein, other planet ponzi. it's nice to see happy holidays. ah, look back. soaring cancer rights, deteriorating living conditions and pollution in florida. these are all being blind on phosphate mining. but as locals that fight for their london, their health and mining giant accused polluting waterways plans to open another site later today, our team will be airing. a documentary about situation is a quick look. one of the most toxic places in america ah, florida,
5:19 am
one of florida's biggest industries and best kept secrets is fostering one in the biggest player is $85000000000.00 industry. is mosaic. and i, there are reports of millions of gallons of contaminated water now flowing into the florida, offer a chronic. i don't want to hear that word towards me, but that's what it is. i'm in 2013 my, all our family dog, my brother, who is 21 years old, myself in my father, we're all a black hole. and the good player. yeah. maybe they'll actually, we're, that far hill is more important than the company responded to accusations made in that documentary by saying that it doesn't
5:20 am
accurately portray the cancer risks associated with mining early this year, a 1000000 gallons of waste water from a former mining facility belonging to another company leak to florida. the states is building an injection well to pump out the remaining water that something environmentalists, i could also lead to dangerous consequences for the state. so my credit crown, who made that documentary you so previewed, explains why he made it. 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 for cam. so, you know, as soon as i saw that with i thought this is something we can stop and if he's 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 testings, so they simply do their own tests and then provide the results to the states. so
5:21 am
there is no oversight 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 i recently had a gag order placed on them where they could not speak publicly about music, 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
5:22 am
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 run roughshod over everybody in the local areas. and you can watch the full documentary, little later today. i'm a channel as well as right throughout the day, tomorrow a restaurant to new jersey city of keels refusing to change his establishment name from the moore's head locals. this racist andrew on new egg booth though, originally from nigeria told us why he will be sticking with the name or no more than cough i don't feel discriminated against in any way. warren coff has not races to me. morrow. moore's head has no degrading meaning at all. the name more has
5:23 am
a positive connotation. some 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 germans. those blacks have no self awareness. i'm old enough and have the knowledge and brain snow when my feelings are hurt. i don't the white people to explain to me when my feelings are hurt or beaten, nor has schools controversy before in germany. activists decrying. it's alleged colonial connotations, say they successfully petitioned in the past to get burdens. former more street to be renamed. the influx of migrants into germany over recent years is made some that increasingly aware of the possible offence of certain woods may cause even traditional children's songs. haven't escaped the popular 3 chinese with the double bass lead to legal action over its alleged racial overtones. and it's not only the germans, the european commission created quite a fossil by issuing guidelines on inclusive language suggesting avoiding supposedly
5:24 am
loaded words like christmas. a manmade politicians from the right though pounced on the initiative and got cancelled a strutter under on the lead. bu again explained why he thinks the idea was misguided from the very start. the much dimension, most big 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.
5:25 am
s. cities us in crime rates comparable to the 1900 ninety's, with some areas braking old time records for homicide. it's prompted me as to jump off the defun, the police bandwagon, chicago new taurus for problems of violent crime among those now looking to boost levels of law enforcement. again, serious crime, making the headlines almost every day now. most recently a mole shoot out in the suburbs and a double robbery of high and bran stores, situated opposite each of the local media report shootouts are happening even in once safe neighborhoods, chicago man, laurie lightfoot, who previously wanted to slash police funding situations forced to do the opposite . i have formerly ass the attorney general of the united states mer garden to with all delivered hayes detail atf agent to chicago for 6 months. so that we can increase the number of gun investigations and seizures in chicago. according to chicago police,
5:26 am
they were hundreds more shootings in the city this year than last when the wimbledon 3000. no, that is also sort of significant spike with $793.00 committed the ship. san francisco is also battling a crisis just on drugs. last year the man promised to redirect millions and funding from police, but now says the city needs to enforce the law more aggressively. form a police officer dominic his i says, verification is made it honda for the police just to do the job. the crime in chicago was 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. they're vilified by the citizens. you are not safe if you come to chicago, so until the state steps up and does their job, you're going to have complete utter,
5:27 am
lawless and chaos here. and chicago is 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 in office. 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 the 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. okay, that is all for now. don't forget though lots more new stories available for you to check out on our website simply had to r t dot com. ah . look forward to talking to you all
