9:06 am
to in 2014 new power structures emerge the new frame. so the, the national battalions professing the ideas of neo naziism and racial intolerance towards everyone. they sit in on ukrainians in modern circumstances, the hosting of the 1st international anti fascist congress by russia is of great importance. some countries are trying to rewrite the history of fascism. there is a glorification of fascist actions and last, russia and china should jointly resist such a trend as more of ukraine, they are not seen as a battalion fight is captured by russian forces, some of the prisoners being investigated for alleged war crimes from a french service mon adrian bucket, who is known for previous revelations regarding as of the actions of the last 8 years of the conflicts visited the groups captive members. a warning, some of them could have been speaking under duress. i am now in a secret detention center were meeting captured officers of the as of battalion who
9:07 am
are being kept under strict guard. ah ah ah. well, it was a lawyer. as you can see, the tattoos a real nazi tattoos. your symbol is slightly camouflage, crosses or change and a bit different. they've signatures. look, this is a painted swastika. here's another image in a similar style. here are other symbols. look at this one at the top, there's a helmet of the s s guard. and this is the small, there are hundreds of fighters covered with s s rooms and swastikas. when i say hundreds, i mean under this one, you know, this is just one example to show you. it's a reality i
9:08 am
have you ever killed or shot civilians? you know the nation by orders of my commanders. i shot at the vehicle was carrying people know so you were shooting an unarmed civilians only because you've got the orders. well, not exactly. it was dark. the bus had tinted windows and the driver didn't stop on demand. do you understand what you have done is a war crime. turns out that i do while you were hiding that as of style plant, did you know women and children were dying from michelle's hitting their flats in the central unit? there was a war going on and there were 2 sides, not one engaged in the fighting. ah
9:09 am
ah, the israeli rating of several palestinian human rights organizations in the west bank has drawn sharp criticism from the un and even television allies in washington on him pressed. we are concerned about the israeli security forces closure of the 6 offices and the palestinian n g o. we have reached out to the is really government at including at senior levels, including here from washington, as well as from our embassy in jerusalem for more information regarding the basis for these closures. and will continue to seek additional information and to convey or concern directly. and privately to our is really partners. i'll have one of the most prominent human wines, groups in the west bank that works, prosecute israel in the international criminal court reporter, the soldiers stormed its offices and left a military order declaring the organization outlawed. 3 other
9:10 am
n g o were also rated. one of them reported that israeli forces broke down its office door was to go home to scan the documents is wrong. the defense ministry claims of 6 palestinian organizations are part of a militant funding that work and labeled to groups as terrorist organizations was one of the observers is point, so striking similarities between israel's treatment of the palestinians on ukraine's handling of don bos with both cases being tolerated by the west as our teeth don quarter expense israel and ukraine. 2 countries with a lot in common and not in the way western propaganda would have. you think this week israel rated the offices of several, palestinian and g o in a fashion. so brutal, even washington saw fit to criticize it. just a few days earlier, a similar story surfaced in ukraine of people being punished for accepting humanitarian aid. we will now focus on the noteworthy cases of the collaborators activities. they have notified to citizens of ukraine on suspicion who began to
9:11 am
collaborate with the occupying forces. they received humanitarian aid from the aggress her and had it distributed among the local population. the justification, keith considers it criminal collaboration for people to receive humanitarian aid from moscow. in pro russian areas, indifference towards the killing of civilians, including children is another area where televi eve and t of overlap the eviction of palestinians and east jerusalem. and in the occupied west. bank, the military detention of minors, bombings, of civilian areas. these are all long documented israeli actions that many opponents have labeled genocidal. ah, i would say 39 for the last 8 years. ukraine's military campaign against the don boss, people has been shockingly similar, indiscriminate bombings,
9:12 am
cutting off supplies of fresh water, electric war, crimes, documented by international rights organizations. what's more, the attitudes of many who support key f and the mainstream. ukrainian media could hardly be considered not genocidal. numbers that it is that a unique you dumbass as a whole bunch of problems. the biggest of which is that is severely overpopulated with people. nobody has any useful, no matter how crew of my sound there is a certain category of people that must be exterminated. sounds a bit like what some israelis think about arabs, though i can see for myself that if there was a button, i could press that would make all the errors disappear. that would put them all on an express train to switzerland. may they live wonderful lives there? thousands of palestinians who work in israel are also being denied pension benefits that would otherwise be available to israelis. another striking similarity with the plight of the don boss, people, the elderly who are left in non government controlled areas,
9:13 am
are among the most vulnerable of the civilian population for many of them, pensioned payments or their main means to survive the ukraine as a party to the international conventions guaranteeing social protection should take all measures necessary to ensure the rights of those people suspending and cutting off people from their rightful pensions contradicts national and international obligations of ukraine. internationally, band devices of death, thar fair play for both tel aviv and key f as well the ukrainians weapon of choice paddle mines. that key f claim to have destroyed launched in cluster bombs over residential areas in done yet. so the idea for its part has long been using dense, inert metal explosives, armor piercing, bombs, and white phosphorus weapons that cause debilitating and inhumane wounds to those unlucky enough to fall victim to them. and accompanying this, blatant disrespect for international law has been a drawn out propaganda campaign silencing those who try to speak up. this is not a new phenomenon. this has been happening for years now and it's contributing to
9:14 am
silencing our voice and restricting us from documenting human rights violations and will crimes that we are exposed to. if you are a critic outside the immediate reach of the israeli and ukrainian governments, don't worry, there are blacklists that will try every which way to get you cancelled. key of god, mirror torrance list with connections to ukrainian intelligence which brings attention to anyone labeled an enemy of ukrainian state fellows. vehicle of character. assassination is called canary mission, which the israeli government uses liberally when deciding who can work lives or even enter the country. yours truly is on both lists a person who is not a terrorist, not a violent extremist, but a journalist. it just goes to show who these governments are really trying to silence. for that cost to academic and independent journalist jason michael. now to discuss this further many thanks for joining us on the program. and so what's your take on the similarities between as well as occupation of palestine and key as
9:15 am
brutal treatments of the people in don't bass? well the, the similarities are spark and they are extremely concerning only this afternoon listening to your report. they are only the this afternoon was a suspension on my twitter account listed for reporting. exactly the, the, the call that you've reported for 192, a genocide in ukraine. my twitter account was closed out and i appealed if my evidence and only this afternoon was not suspension listed. but yes, this appears to be a program that happened. i know while, as well as at least seen some critic western criticism for action victims, the mainstream of gender is mostly about turning a blind eye to similar events in ukraine. was he make of that? well, it conforms perfectly to what norm tom ski describes as abilene as the 1980 says the propaganda model of journalism that says when things are highlighted, all the things of clayton, some things are done right?
9:16 am
ignored. we do have this language of the killing of civilians or civilian population to be exterminated. be a very for lack of any duct having the, the national socialist or not the language of categories or useless people to describe the palestinian people as this, or the people of don boxes. this is, you know, deeply watering right in the rhetoric of the state. so as you know, this is why this is not being covered by western media is, you know, quite frankly, it's very disturbing. so what's your assessment of how likely israel and ukraine likely to be held internationally accountable for any human rights violations. were wholly only recently something i should have no one came to my attention that the term the international community broadly describes the western democracies
9:17 am
and the. ready the only the western states count in under the umbrella term of the international community. so how much will the national community, how much will the west hold ukraine and. ready israel to account for best language and these cravings, well not at all. this is being done very much with. ready support of this international western community. you know, these are ally in effects of, of the west. so, no, i think all parties are guilty and that includes the so called international community. as we know on thursday, the 4th is rated and shut down 6 palestinian human rights organizations. washington later expressed concerns over these rates. so, could we see a shift in how the u. s. is acting towards israel? i mean, knowing how normally how closely they cooperate. well bad i wouldn't
9:18 am
hold a much. ready hope for that. yes, the united states will criticize these events in the united states have criticized the suppression of humanitarian organizations around the world for quite a long time. but you know, it's a case of the right hand, not knowing what the left hand is doing. the on the soft us, we see report types of criticism. we see jungle left cricket 5, the actions of the state of israel moderately, so, but with no great teeth to it. but behind the scenes, the, the military industrial complex, the clandestine services, the cia, the acting, you know, hand in glove with, with the state of israel to make sure that these very things are still happening in the face of the criticism of be in a academic and independent journalist jason, michael. many, thanks for joining us on the show. it's always good to hear your thoughts on the matter. and so, you know, we, molly,
9:19 am
us has announced an additional military aid package to ukraine worth at $775000000.00 with washington saying that the conflict is at a standstill. the package includes additional ammunition for hi mars rocket artillery systems and more how it says along with 15 scan, eagle recognizance drones plus mine was destined and the armored vehicles. the new ammunition also includes high speed anti radiation missiles, with a range of at least 50 kilometers designed to seek and destroy radar equip, to add defense systems for his announcement, brings the u. s. military assistance. the key of to $10600000000.00 since the thought of biden's presidential term with the u. s. department of defense. now claiming that the weapon supplies the forcing russia to pay quote, a high price. we want to make sure that ukraine has a steady stream of ammunition to meet its needs. and that's what we're doing with this package. you're seeing the russians still paying a high price with ukranian attacks,
9:20 am
especially using that high mar system. but they are incurring these costs and not able to advance. however, the u. s. supplied weapons are not only deployed by ukraine against military targets, according to dom bass and russian officials. they're also being used to show residential areas of don. yes. can to other regions controlled by russian courses, including a pre trial detention facility were captured, ukrainian soldiers were being held which led to the death of 50 prisoners of wars with 73 others wounded. a retired us, our 4th lieutenant, told us that as long as the conflict continued to be financially profitable, the u. s. will keep supplying ukraine. half of all of that money goes directly into the pentagon. so the pentagon has received the money and the pentagon and its contractors are shipping their materials pretty much as soon as they can over to ukraine. but it's not really connected. i don't think to a strategy as much as it is a domestic spending program. none of what the u. s. is providing will assist in any
9:21 am
reclaiming of territory. it's simply, in fact, increasingly is defensive on what's left of ukraine. and i think as long as there's money to be made between the ukranian elite and the, the military industrial establishment in the united states and, and some of the other european countries as long as money is, is it long as this war is profitable? it's going to continue for them, so they're not going to acknowledge anything. this is the, your parker see is astounding. here. i think in many ways ah, turkey is threatening to scrap an agreement that would let finland and sweden join nato. a stock home as not time today for to anchor a single person involved in terrorist activities, but instead extradited a man convicted of credit card fraud. if they think that by extra adding ordinary criminals to turkey, they will make us believe that they have fulfilled their promises. they are wrong.
9:22 am
nobody should test turkey. back in june, sweden and finland, find a morale, them in which they agreed to declare the kurdish party. a terrorist organization and agreed to extradite dozens of people on choruses as terrorists with the understanding that turkey would lifted opposition to the nordic countries, joining nato, turkish professor berries, the belly, se suite an infinitive. failing to understand the importance of the deals. it could you comment? definitely pleasure. cor, which clearly this is this is an insult to turkey and this is a mockery of turkey is mine to get is not banana republic. i think they do not understand or not want to understand the importance of the we know these 2 countries before me to membership, we have had patients in our nation for years because of the support for times to care and see them do not look at terrorism from the same point or free of effect,
9:23 am
this is the biggest problem off the 21st century. unfortunately, each country has its own definition of who is cetera. in fact, this issue is not only a metro funeral and citizen, but also need to which is responsible for ensuring safety of its members. the civic dynamic in the u. s. jo biden's top adviser has claimed at washington's interventions in latin. america's politics are in the past, despite evidence that points to the contrary, sebastian gonzales pays to both that the u. s. would previously have sped, no efforts to prevent the election of left wing politicians like columbia new leader. 40 years ago, the united states would have done everything possible to prevent the election of gustavo petro, and once in power, it would have done almost everything possible to sabotage his government. the u. s
9:24 am
. has been accused of multiple interventions in the affairs of latin american countries. the most recent cases include current support at the self proclaimed venezuelan president, one guido, as well as the 2019 alleged assistance to the displacement of then head of bolivia . even morales was more the u. s. is blamed for encouraging a qu in nicaragua, in 2018, and possibly contributing to similar events in honduras, 13 years ago. and while the u. s. administration keep denying any involvement in staging, cuz some american prominent political figures admit it and say it out loud. i was the senior director, we live, which it was the hot store as somebody who is help plan kuta no, not here, but you know, other places it takes a lot of work. we will not promote democracy through cost. we military interventions or by attempting to overthrow authoritarian regimes by force. we probably started in the past. however, well intentioned, they haven't worked me weisner latin countries are enhancing that ties with asians
9:25 am
top emerging power, china, according to the world economic forum, their trait is increased 26 fold since 2000 and they expected to double by 2035, exceeding $700000000000.00 writer and community workers, stevens theft, unsafe the latin american states aren't hostile to the us, but the policy of the latter forces them to seek alternative partners. if you look at the pronouncements by a government leaders in latin america, even of countries that are regarded as opposed largely opposed to united states foreign policy in latin american, the carrot caribbean. none of them say that they regard themselves as enemies or rivals of the united states. they hope to maintain friendly relations with the united states. but on the basis of respect, it's very clear that the united states has maintained intervention is policies. so
9:26 am
just over the last 3 or 4 years that been very clear examples of us intervention, although not direct military intervention. and i think it makes more sense to talk about countries feeling alienated from the united states as a result of u. s. policy. the united states repeatedly drive countries into the policies to adopt foreign policy in which they look more to the people's republic of china or the russian federation rather than to the united states because united states policy gives them no alternative and our special coverage. we continue looking at development in afghanistan since the last american soldier left it soil one year ago. as along with the suffering hardship and failure experienced by the afghan people no nation has ever done anything
9:27 am
like it in all the history. 12 months on tens of thousands of afghans who collaborated with washington still cannot get the special visas promised to them by the americans ah, or message to those women and men is clear. there is

9:29 am
excellent. mm hm. although i have been living in albania for less than a year, we are in a tough situation. we abandoned our lives and came here. we worked in afghanistan, we had jobs, but now we don't. we do not know what to do. what will happen to our lives and future? i urge the americans to pay attention to afghan citizens living in 3rd countries. we are waiting for our cases to be processed, but in the past 11 months we have not received any answer but it is so excited of a return to our country depends on the economic situation insecure, pretty issue. as ganna stand must be in contact with the international community, and people must be assured that they are living in a secure, economically good situation. that is not the case now.
