ah, ah, 2 days of aerial carpet bombing is imminent, followed by a russian ground operation that would take care of the us. national security adviser speculates on moscow's moves with a startlingly precise prediction on a long awaited invasion. russia, meanwhile, runs it's a coordinates, a political attach, rushes figure, skating federation says it has no doubt camila valley ever is innocent of any wrongdoing. despite testing positive bonds, substance, the organization says it's investigating the circumstances surrounding the incident . plus rushes olympic committee is raising concerns over the timing of the test results that the sample was taken back in december, but only revealed in the last few days. and the cia has been harvesting
9:01 pm
private data on americans for years, according to newly classified declassified agency documents concerns are growing as the eavesdropping has been discovered purely by accident. we didn't even know about this until the senators accidentally stumbled on it and ask for clarification from the cia and then ask the cia to declassify the letter that they received. the we can just be gone, harry, moscow, my name is peter scott. and welcome to 30 minutes of news analysis or nazi international. the u. s. national security adviser has laid out a rather precise prediction for what he calls the imminent russian invasion of ukraine. jake sullivan went into disturbing detail of what he expects. meanwhile, russian for ministry spokeswoman is a kind of a says such history is now reaching
9:02 pm
a limit and only the anglo saxons need. a war is likely to begin with aerial bombing and missile attacks that could obviously kill civilians without regard to their nationality. a subsequent ground invasion would involve the onslaught of a massive force with virtually no notice communications to arrange. a departure could be severed and commercial transit halted. they rapid assault on the city of key that is a possible line of attack course of action that the russian forces could choose to take. the white house hysteria is more revealing than ever. the anglo saxons need a war in any cost provocation. misinformation and threats are a favorite method of solving their own problems. the american military political machine is ready to steam roll through people's lives again. the whole world is watching how militarism and imperial ambitions expose themselves. while the russian foreign ministry is calling the sum of washington's actions, basically a coordinated disinformation campaign against russia. after all, we're seeing,
9:03 pm
we're being told that russia's preparing to invade, but at the same time, western media outlets can't get their story straight when it comes to the finer details from one angle. we're hearing from their spiegel. it's just saying that the invasion is set to come on the 16th of february on the, on the, on the other hand we have bloomberg who saying it's the 15th of february. so, and all this actually seems to be flowing from washington, putting its citizens and its allies in a state of fear. i mean, without any sort of evidence whatsoever, except basically saying, trust us, antony blink, in his saying that a russian invasion is basically guaranteed to happen around the winter olympics and beijing, beijing could begin at any time clear that includes during the olympics, many american citizens who remain in ukraine should leave now. now these extreme claims have had a cascade effect around parts of the world that are aligned with the west, the european union, the u. k. japan and a lot of other countries are already telling their citizens that they also need to
9:04 pm
get out of ukraine as quickly as possible. the united states also saying that it's going to be withdrawing its citizens that are in ukraine, specifically in the o. s. c, e. mission there in anticipation of a russian invasion. now this is all, despite the fact that russia has not actually been prep, been preparing for an invasion, but has been busy conducting diplomacy all the week. and it really just goes to show that maybe there's some merit to what the lever off said earlier this week when he said that this, these diplomatic talks have been basically like talking to deaf people. both cheryl and tim stool. i am disappointed that we seem to have dialogues between a mute than a dead person. they seem to be listening, but don't hare. almost detailed explanations have fallen on rough ground. they say that russia is waiting for the soil to freeze and become like histone was said, that tanks compassed safely into ukrainian territory. but it seems that our british colleagues have the same. so today from which numerous factors that we cited of bouncing. now the white house has said it's that biden is set to make an emergency
9:05 pm
phone call to proven to see, to see if they can work things out. but one has to ask, what's the point of really bringing all of this to this moment, this hysteria is it to is it for washington to show that it can save the day at the end? i mean, that it kind of seems that way, especially as jake sullivan is claiming that russia's planning some sort of a false flag attack to justify invading your firmly convinced that the russians should they decide to move forward with invasion or looking hard at the creation of a pretext, a false flag operation, something that they generate and try to blame on the ukrainians as a trigger for military action. and we're calling that output. and this isn't actually the 1st time that russia has been accused by the west of planning, some sort of false. busy flag operation and this also isn't the 1st time that no false flag operation actually happened to actually last week. it was the same story
9:06 pm
and leverage back then was talking about how the claims that the west is making about rush are becoming more and more delusional. as time goes on and as it seems like he's right on the money with these recent developments on the one hand, the u. s. is in hysterics and on the other rushes trying to continue to conduct diplomacy with the western world show who just today met with the u. k. foreign the u. k. defense secretary. and he's basically laying it out, laying out his cards on the table, saying if the west and russia are to get along than the west needs to stop arming, hostile military on russia's border. if we like to propose a step towards reducing tensions and in the pumping off of ukraine with weapons from a brush that's being done publicly in significantly. and it's not entirely clear why. i'd also like to understand why britain has deployed special forces to ukraine and for how long they'll be there. now the last thing i want to mention about the white house is the recent statement was that it said it's trying to prevent war,
9:07 pm
but perhaps a better way to go about preventing war would be to return to the negotiating table rather than continue to spread hysteria around russian and a potential russian invasion that moscow continues to say. it's not planning. daniel mcadams, who's executive director, the ron pulled piece institute, says the situation has become more dangerous. i have said all along that i don't believe russia is going to invade. there's no incentive for it to an invade. however, today i think things have taken a new and very dangerous turn. now, i'm very concerned about this, and let's look at the scenario. the u. s. has now said it wants to pull out it so as the monitors today, the o. s. the monitors and don bassett counted a 400 percent increase in the amount of shelling over the last 7 days. daily average 4 times increase in showing. here's the scenario. the u. s. has apparently gotten the other countries several other countries to to have to share the panic and to pull their troops or their, their citizens out. if you pull the
9:08 pm
o s e mission out of don bass, you can have a massive provocation on the part of, of a russian reaction. there's nobody there to monitor it. there's nobody there to say . who did it or who didn't do it. this has been done before this has been done in cost of own elsewhere, the using of the o. s. the monitors to facilitate rather than prevent war. and i think this is a potentially dangerous development. u. s. a sounding increasingly desperate because everything they throw on the wall doesn't stick. so i think i'm actually more concerned than i was a week ago. now for another story we're across today, kind of does central ontario province is threatening to impose fines and the $100000.00 on protest is blocking traffic that's amid the mass demonstrations against cove it back to the mandates. the regional government has declared a state of emergency and said that such demonstrations are getting out of control. the freedom called boy protest movements has been holding values for 2 weeks already, including blockading the national parliaments in also we're both. so authorities
9:09 pm
are cracking down including freezing income from a crowd. funding sources already raised more than $8000000.00 american dollars for the protest organizes dozens of arrest that already be made more than a 1000 fines issued with police sometimes resorting to force to detain the protesters. one canadian officer accused the governments of ignoring the fundamental rights of citizens, saying he can't follow those orders any more. not at all what is happening in order with a clear political influence on the police to physically exert political will on peaceful protesters is so very wrong on so many levels. i was just following orders is no longer an excuse. it is time to stand up and speak out by refusing to preach your fellow citizens fundamental charter rights. you signed up to help people stand with your fellow canadians and say enough is enough. 3rd party of canada has spent
9:10 pm
the last 2 weeks endorsing and enabling these blockades across the country. the consequences of these actions are having dire in have their impacting trade. they're hurting jobs, they're threatening our economy and they're obstructing our community. i am focusing on in both those accusations of insurrection and even treason fly in that direction. the truck, as it came to highlight the grass roots support, they say that protest is getting from many people. and also, which is where john holding our reports from or like a dance party, then men approach us right now. i mean to be honest with you, which is really been the case over the last few days. look auto a police say that the situation is volatile. the protestors here the truckers determined if one thing is true, it's that the supporters of this protest and those that are here are determined they're determined for their voices and their demands to be heard as far as volatility. ah, we know that police have made some arrests, but overall it's been
9:11 pm
a very like over the weekend, there were balancing hassles here and there are families coming here. i described it as almost like a winter carnival type festival. the pointed to protest is basically it started with truckers converging upon the city here. january 28th, and iowa are fighting against mandatory vaccinations. for the trucking industry, it's really more into a much greater protest over canada's coven 19 restrictions. and now a pretty fiery and intense debate about candidates, freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, freedom of protest, rules and policies. there's a very difficult situation and how do you get all these trucks? hundreds of big rigs with trailers. how do you move them out of the city if they have no plans on leaving local tow truck companies have said you're not using us. we have to work with these guys. we don't want to be seen doing this. and some have even told me we stand in support of these truckers, so it's a very, very difficult situation for police and walk the majority of the protesters we
9:12 pm
talked and we talked to many including trackers say i have really maintain that this is a peaceful protest supporters, men, women, children, continue to come here from all over the country, but none the less vac said protesters maintain. this is a peaceful organization. it's a peaceful demonstration. still, canadian officials, including the prime minister and other federal and local officials, have lambasted the ongoing movement. the ongoing protest and the pastor protesters including one ottawa city council member, here's what he, she had to say occurring, referred to it as sedition today. i think that's exactly what it is. this is theresa, really an insurrection? it's a, it's an attack on our democracy. it's an attack on our federal government. we've seen similar convoys in the united kingdom and france and australia, new zealand. we're also hearing about chatter and talk about something similar potentially happening in the united states. a convoy may be even stretching from
9:13 pm
california, going to washington d. c, possibly disrupting the super bowl or even prisoner joe biden. state of the union speech on march 1st. that remains to be seen, but one thing is very clear. this protest continues here on the ground, in ottawa and other parts of canada. the head of the canadian democratic defense association reports on corruption, including by the governments and says, canadians should stun dope for their freedoms. actually been fighting against this for about 2 years. we've got over 400 organizations that have popped up across canada and everything to do with providing an o l. i notice of liabilities in order for people to keep their jobs against these ridiculous government dictates. and i'm gonna call them dictates cuz that's what they are by the police coming on, our side is happening in droves and we, we don't just have the occupation happening in order. we've, we've also got in the economic center here in toronto and at every other legislature building across the entire country. and we encourage, we encourage more kids to come out and, and, and stand in support of this. i mean,
9:14 pm
this is your freedoms in your life and are fundamental life, liberty, security property are being infringed upon and it's unacceptable as a now for some sports news, the international testing agency has confirmed that abundance substance was found in a sample taken from the russian figure skater, camila valley of a i was back in december. the agency says it was forced to address swirling media speculation. after the middle ceremony was delayed for the olympic figure skating team competition and was camila one gold alex they. yar shasky now repulse and beijing. there are far more questions now than the answers off to the statement. we do have at least some confirmation of what is going on behind the scenes here because it's never been the case in the history of the olympic games. when a metal ceremony has been delayed for more than 5 days already, it happened a last weekend and the, the or athletes who won their metals, haven't still received it. now the official side of the story was that
9:15 pm
a certain legal issue was being considered and prevented the outage from getting their metals. now, the idea that meant that is in the morning shed some light on what exactly was going on. now 1st and foremost, the doping sample which was tested positive was obtained from camila oliva on december 25th in st. petersburg, russia during the russian ice figure skating championship, which of course, of oliva one comfortably. and that a by that ensured her participation in the olympic games. the most bizarre part of the story is that the positive results came back on february 8. and i have to explain here that since rossa is rendered as noncom blind by the world anti doping agency, rasa had to send the sample to an accredited laboratory. that laboratory happens to be a laboratory in stockholm, sweden. so the biggest question here is as to why it took more than a month and a half to produce a result from that probe which was taken on december 25th. something which even the
9:16 pm
head of the russian olympic committee things law was nichol stressed in his address address a just early on saying that usually according to the what a protocol a result from a doping probe should be conducted within 20 days. do the math. that means that should have been conducted by january 15th, the latest. this broke happened before bay gene, an even before the european skating championship, where glen eva also participated, all other doping tests, both in europe and here in beijing. all of them were negative. that was something sometimes by both the olympic committee and by the russian skating union. by the way, russian skating union produced this statement from us, which we can now listen to the russian figure. skating federation doesn't doubt the honesty and integrity of its athlete. we will make every effort to clarify the circumstances of what happened and will provide the athlete with the necessary comprehensive assistance and support. another hugely important point to understand
9:17 pm
here is that when the positive result came back again on february, 8th, rou sada, was following the international protocol and immediately suspended, believe from further participation in olympic games. but the athlete filed an appeal and asked for an expedited process. and on february 9th rou, sada, allowed volleyball to continue her participation in the olympic games. there has to be a reason for that, that definitely it just cannot come out of nowhere. we are waiting for some sort of explanation from the side. of course we understand they have their hands full now, because we understand that now both the international skating union and the international olympic committee have filed an appeal against ro, side as decision to allow volley. we're to participate in the games, and this is something that needs to be resolved by february 15th, the latest. that is what an female ice skaters will take to the rank in beijing to compete for the metals here. you'll understand that, isn't it?
9:18 pm
it's not because she's a protected, personal minor on those that's very important. and i hope that people respect that . and that's why we've not been able to communicate virtually a tune up until now. and that's why also because of the speculation, the media about the name and the whole story, the actually the chase will fit to put out a clarification statement. we talk in here, not just about any, any skates. are we talking about one of the most talented skaters on the planet who wowed the crowds? both the sports related and ordinary, you know, common lovers of sport without, without last weekend. it was a historical performance. asked woman, ever in the history of olympic gangs to do a double quad on the ice and don't forget, she is 15 years of age and i have to tell you it's both heartbreaking to think what is running through. i had i, in any case, there could be, it could not be as bad as we all think it is while eva is a minus. she is just 15 years of age. so underwater protocol, she's considered as
9:19 pm
a protected person. so if any punishment comes away, if she's found complicit or deliberately taking this medication and not informing the authorities of any medical re reason for that than a punishment in her case may be lightened. deprivation of metals from the russian olympic team is not even considered at the moment. this is an individual case which could even be result after the beijing olympics is over. america's anti doping chief is already floating. the idea if suing russian athletes saying he's ready to use an anti doping law that allows us authorities to prosecute for athletes or officials outside the country. at the same time, the russian olympic committee chief is questioning the timing of the test results release. i have serious questions about the timing that passed between december 25th when the sample was given in st. petersburg and february 8th when it was made public in accordance with international standards of the world anti doping agency laboratory. the deadline for loading sample
9:20 pm
a is 20 days from the date of receipt of the sample in the laboratory. it looks very strange that the test took almost a month to get from st. petersburg to stockholm. this raises very serious questions for me. here it's not really about the doping case as such because these will be dealt later on and we do not even know if there is a positive the sample test. i think there is not yet because the information was given on the very rare lay. i must say, and that means it has deal to write to request to be simple. so if there is a confused hold you to test is not yet even decided. that means the court reform to ration for sport can only assess what will be perhaps the likelihood in their mind. what will happen with this case, which day will not be able to decide themselves. the only thing they can decide
9:21 pm
ease suspension for the next event, which will be the 15th december rent or not. and i think given, given the heart tension and the big effects that we have, such as suspension, they should be very careful in determining this the detector substance try methods . the dean is usually used to treat heart disease and angina, but it may also help athletes recover from strenuous training. now few believe valley of unknowingly took the drug and people on social media have been expressing widespread support amid the allegations, while russians invasion currently have shared the confusion about the situation. this is marcia ma for us. our athletes are often subjected to very strict drug tests. it would have been particularly stupid to have not been clean when coming here. i'm certain they are clean. tamila has been a favorite at these games. every one's been talking about her. she's been under
9:22 pm
enormous pressure from the entire world, especially the media there, but we believe in her and wished that she goes on to victory service. this whole situation, not just whether they'll take away the metal is so disappointing. it would be for anyone who loves their country, especially as a concern such enough is oh, the situation is so confusing. no one really knows what's going on and why, or whether someone has something to gain from this. it's very sad. we're in beijing and were cheering for the russians, hoping very much that everything will go smoothly. are figure skaters are the absolute best. a russian olympic ice dancer told my colleague nikki, are in the valley of us, continuing to train despite the tremendous pressure. my experience with my partner with tiffany when we were there, it was only 3 days and um we had the stress and, and everything being there. and i cannot imagine how difficult it is to be there
9:23 pm
for such a long time. and with all of the stress of everything going around at the moment, i have so much respect for her and so much love. and i mean, we've been on shows, together of ice getting shows and just the dedication amount of work she puts in, such as the talent like she is there before. i mean, i think we came like 20 minutes before the show just kind of warmed up a little bit. she was there preparing training, which is an amazing athlete. one thing that's come up in this case it's been flagged as peculiar as the how late the results of the test. and we're daniels really strange. it's a long time and there's actually a on of regulations of how long the test take though to provide. and it's, it's strange that its been delayed to such a peculiar date with so much going on in the media right now. do you think it might be taking a toll on her to such a strong person, such a determined person and even at such a young age are you know, she has the dedication and you can see that she,
9:24 pm
she's there. she's training from what i've heard. she's training well, she's probably limited her social media, whatever to kind of not deal with that and just focus on the skating, which is what she is amazing at. i've heard from so many different people around the world. how in spot, how amazing her routines were, and they really, truly are memorable. and i think they'll throw at the, remember that in other news now, newly declassified cia documents reveal the agency has been collecting americans private data. in a previous, the undisclosed surveillance program, there's been capturing such information for years. the evidence came to light after 2 senators asked the agency director to declassify a study into his intelligence gathering, eventually revealing that's an order passed by president ronald reagan back in 1981 expanded the power of such agencies allowing the cia to embark on its own boat program and sentences seat as an attack on americans privacy. while these documents
9:25 pm
demonstrates, is the many of the same concerns that americans have about their privacy and civil liberties. also applies to how the c i a collects and handles information on the executive order and outside the face. along these documents reveal serious problems associated with warrantless backdoor searches of americans. the same issue that has generated bipartisan concern in the face of context. we didn't even know about this until the senators accidentally stumbled on it and asked for clarification from the cia and then asked to cia to declassify the letter that they received. so this, this is something that's so important. it's such a major violation of the law that it has to be reported to the oversight committees . and we know from these 2 senators today that it was never reported to the oversight committees. it was found out about solely by accident. no one responds. the cia says it respects americans privacy, claiming a commitment to transparency,
9:26 pm
adding, quote, analysts a not required to memorialize the justification for their queries bullets the american civil liberties union has slum the agency for the v. an invasion of privacy while criticism online is also building. you are about to witness an enormous political debate in which the spy agencies and their apologists on tv tell you this is normal and ok. and the cia doesn't know how many americans are in the database or even how they got there anyway. but it is not okay. the c, i is a criminal organization. their interference and us politics is particularly pernicious. these reports raise serious questions about what information of ours the c i is vacuuming up in bulk and how the agency exploits that information to spy on americans. this invasion of our privacy must stop. john kerry r q, a former c i a analyst. he says that the public is rightfully outraged as such data collection because he has no legal grounds. there is no legal basis,
9:27 pm
none whatsoever. not only has c, i collection been illegal when conducted against american citizens. since the creation of the cia in 1947 that was reiterated by the church and pike committees in 1975. there are no circumstances where the cia may collect bulk data on american citizens or us persons. there's literally no justification, no explanation within the confines of the law. that's acceptable for something like this. we don't even know what kind of information is being discussed here. we don't know how many americans are affected. we don't know where the information is being kept. we don't know who else has access to it. we don't know what the information is for. for example, does the f b, i have access to this database? can it look at illegally collected information on american citizens for the purpose of law enforcement or building a case without a warrant?
9:28 pm
that's really the most important question here. and the answer is that it shows how we desperately need robust congressional oversight in this country for so many years the, the congressional oversight committees have been little more than cheerleaders for the cia and the rest of the intelligence community. we don't need cheerleaders. we need adults in the room. while wherever you are, thank you for watching. that's all phenomena. i'll be back again in 30 minutes with the rundown of the headlines. the state church for mol great programs. here on oxy . i look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings, except where such order that conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we
9:29 pm
should be very careful about artificial intelligence at that point. obviously is to race trust rather than fear a very job with artificial intelligence. real, somebody with a robot must protect its own existence with people don't use a claim for crime, for this, for a reason. the highest percentage of global prime that employed big point peak to several years ago at around one and a half percent. and that number's gone down to under one half of one percent. it's not really practical for criminals to use big kline, that's just a point mainstream media uses being correctly
9:30 pm
done then i gotta do my veggie. and then i gotta go to sam unless you wrote the letter cuz i've, you know, of the weasel. yeah. he had he had the brooklyn una jimmy boise, and then he got in, then bulldozer the gun. when i had the damage to them, yet the ye ye are managed of to was every bit of an outage in a medium. you call them a little to turn on him, put in a message, then gun, and did you get the beer garden and a ceremony to renew the durham. it's brought up on a book. it should have been the matter that there would you go then that young.
