10:04 am
the medicine and please with will among those held responsible for the iraq war on neoconservatives whose ideology of supporting direct us miniature interventions, how much sway of the bush administration, ortiz cannibal pin dive deeper into their ideas. and the consequences. can you even imagine washington without the neocons running u. s. foreign policy, this crowd of war hawks who believe in spreading freedom by toppling governments has had the upper hand for decades. this school of foreign policy hardliners has roots in the late cold war, the soviet tallahassee. academics who are obsessed with bringing down russia in the ninety's they took aim at iraq, the only acceptable strategies, one that eliminates the possibility that
10:05 am
a rock will be able to use or threatened to use weapons of mass destruction in the near term. this means a willingness to undertake military action as diplomacy is clearly failing in the long term, it means removing saddam hussein and his regime from power. they waited for the right moment after 911 george w bush was ready to play ball with them. a rock was destroyed for the sake of democracy, is the policy of the united states to seek and support the growth of democratic movements and institutions in every nation and culture with the ultimate goal of ending tyranny in our world. ah, we can all see how well that turned out, yet some continued to defend neoconservative ideals. the problem with neoconservatism is agenda lies, not in that sense which are as american as apple pie, but rather in the over militarized means by which it has sought to accomplish them
10:06 am
. obama picked up after bush and toppled the government of libya. the neocons screamed for blood, shall the concerns of men in congress to bow to wayne, which the pam administration has conducted these operation. the problem is not that he has done too much, however, and that he has done too little to achieve the girl of removing kodachi from power . united states should bulletin, in these efforts, not trailing behind our allies. the next target was serious. a belief that if you were get decent, syria you can leave asked and power. prominent us economists, jeffrey sachs, says that ukraine is the ultimate culmination of the neo cons strategy. the war in ukraine is the culmination of a 30 year project of the american neoconservative movement. the biden administration is packed with the same neocons, who championed the u. s. wars of choice. and serbia, afghanistan, iraq, syria, and libya, and who did so much to provoke russia's invasion of ukraine. endless wars,
10:07 am
country after country destroyed. and where is all it is prosperity, freedom and democracy that's been promised? not once, as the neoconservative agenda lived up to its supposed ideals. but despite the hard lessons and the u. s. public being overwhelmingly opposed to further interventions . the war hawk world view remains alive and well as ever, ala marvin r t, near the us led invasion of iraq created many security challenges for the country, including the emergence of terrorist organizations. the west fights against them destroyed a countless number of civilian lives with many homes hit during the strikes. one of the victims is abdulla halidol, who still seeking justice for the destruction brought by the u. s. military. what vehicle is it? i know bob, up in the house collapsed. honestly, we didn't know because we were inside our home and we didn't hear the bombing. as a result, i lost the hearing in my ear and my back and left him were burned and my leg was
10:08 am
amputated. ah i mm 0 with any my my iraqi civil defense forces didn't show up because the area had not been liberated at the time and had been under ices control for 5 days. so my leg injury got infected. i've got several burns all over my body. the neighbors were terrified, but they rushed to rescue us. they managed to pull us out of the rubble, but some men, women and children were not saved. they transferred me to the hospital near my home, but the bleeding didn't stop and i couldn't sleep because of the severe pain medication wasn't available. then i said, i couldn't tolerate the pain in my leg anymore. so they took me to the city of air
10:09 am
belgy doctors there told me that the inflammation had reached the bone and that amputation was the only way to go with my wife was slightly injured, but the children were in critical condition with numerous broken bones. thank god, they're alive ah, with the investigation determined that isis and placed a large amount of explosive material in a structure containing a significant number of civilians. neither coalition nor rocky forces knew that civilians were sheltered within the structure. by the if i, after the injury and the commander of the north american forces called me and he said that he regretted that serious mistake. adding that this happens in war and by the commander promised. he would pay me a visit, which never happened. after that,
10:10 am
they called me 3 times asking whether the iraqi government visited me or not. us troops showed their desire to financially compensate me for this mistake. however, as you know, compensation for war crimes and military airs goes on for years, you know. but as an iraqi citizen, i'd applied for compensation to the iraqi government. like all those affected so far, i have not received any some, even though i got the receipt for the the sum is very low and does not cover the cost of my destroyed house. and furniture you may not believe it, but the sum is around $10200.00, which was estimated based on the size of the house. when what about the furniture and other quantity? how can i rebuild the house with this pittance with
10:11 am
anybody can, if you should compensate the entire country. but what compensation can we talk about after they've completely destroyed the country and plundered its resources and wiped out its abundance? they promised people filthy richness and cars saying they'll get what they wanted. but it was just false promises what they've achieved in the country is murder, destruction, and torture. ah, that's just part of our ongoing coverage of the war in iraq and the mistake that through the oil which countries the chaos on increasing instability across the middle east. so do stay tuned as we continue looking back on the us led invasion over the next couple of months. and i think the moist who's the content to head over to oxy dot com ah u. s. inflation reduction arts reportedly threatens to hamper you and british
10:12 am
businesses due to its overwhelming focus on green policies. as, as indonesia has taken steps to make its economy more resilient to shocks, such as u. s. inflation, according to his finance minister. i was during a discussion regarding the bill denied this said, facing with that inflation, they have the increased interest rate. they have to claim those inflation. it has the implication in them of capital outflow strengthening dollars. indonesia is grieving more and more effort to increase our lease. he didn't see the inflation reduction bill aims to drastically reduce us carbon emissions by boosting green energy production is supposed subsidies on tax credits for enterprises to build a green infrastructure. though many in the u. k. are worried over it's over all effects on the world economy with the british trade chief saying that the new outs won't bring any good for the u. k. or the us. the e u is very worried and we're working jointly with them on it. it is not just the you doing stuff and we're not in the room. japan is worried,
10:13 am
south korea is worried. switzerland is worried. it is unsure in a way that could actually create problems with a supply chain for everybody else. and that will not have the impact that it wants to have when it's looking at the economic challenge the china presents. so no, i don't think it's a good idea, not just because as protectionist, but it's also cray. it's a single point of failure in a different place when actually what we want is diversification and strengthening of supply chains across the board. rejoined to live now by archie, contributor rachel marston. rachel, good evening to you. what can you tell us about this bill and why so many countries are concerned about it? well, she's worried about a single point of failure. busy well, that's what happens when all of these friends of washington, but all their eggs in one basket. and that's also quite the list of u. s. allies who are quote, worried about washington's latest protectionist moves. or i mean haters of green
10:14 am
initiatives because fines, inflation reduction act is basically protectionism rotten. recycle carbon neutral green packaging. so it's billed as having something for everyone on both the right and on the left in america. but not so much if you're a foreign ally who figured that this globalization promoted by washington for years now was always going to be a 2 way street. so this new u. s. law incentivizes american consumers to buy american electric vehicles over those of allies. it also entices energy, starved european companies now paying for more expensive gas coming from the u. s. than what they were paying before when it came from russia to just make the leap right across the pond and cut the middleman. and frankly, how much good from these new measures actually trickles down ultimately to the average american and their bottom line really does remain to be seen. but washington's ambassador to britain insist that it's a wonderful deal for absolutely everyone have
10:15 am
a listen. one of the things i would say is there's going to be a huge amount of money for r and d. the technology is going to improve and it's going to be cheaper. the technology is going to be used by every one in the world. not just the us. oh honey, you don't need your own money in technology in independence. i'll sell you absolutely . everything you need sounds like such a great deal for washington. as for indonesia now saying that they're taking measures to offset the damage caused by washington's tinkering with inflation rates . they can't say that they were warned about the potential for washington to deregulate the global economy. and in particular, to make life difficult for developing countries. now indonesia is considered a newly developed and industrialized country, but still it's finance minister is now attributing its current econd. busy difficulties to washington hiking interest rates and the shock waves that have resulted from that last fall, a un trade and development report sounded the alarm warning central banks of
10:16 am
developed countries about raising interest rates and making life harder for the average citizen in those countries. last year, the international monetary fund also warned the u. s. federal reserve of a potential spill over impact of its actions on the rest of the world. it's a pretty strong argument for decreasing dependence on washington and it's whole monetary system. the value of currencies in a lot of developing countries has already plunged against the u. s. dollar, making imports more expensive, while rate wages remain the same. so that's a really bad deal for the average person. so whether we're talking about indonesia or britain or the european union, it's now pretty obvious the washington is just going to do what's best for washington. primarily, while flashing a friendly smile and giving a nice pat on the back to its pals. but that's about all they can really hope for. so he got to ask, what exactly washington's closest allies are waiting for,
10:17 am
to ensure the protection of their own interests. first and foremost, rather than waiting around in the hope that washington might toss them a few crumbs of consideration after it does what's best for itself. rachel marston, all she contributes a thanks very much for breaking that down for us. we've known now south africa lawmakers are expected. see milofa downgrading the country's embassy in israel, of was being cold, the oppressive treatments of palestinians. that's after the african union, a block of 55 nations urged to all of its members state to cuts highs with israel running. it's a colonial power member states should not recognize the illegal status that israel has established in the palestinian arab territories, including east jerusalem, which perpetuates the system of colonialism and apartheid. we further request member states and all direct and indirect trade, scientific and cultural exchanges with the state of israel. moreover,
10:18 am
to take all measures to stop such dealings in accordance with the resolutions of united nations. the recommendations through sever relations follows the expulsion of an israel diplomats from an african union assembly held earlier this week. a video circulating on line shows security, escorting the official out of the chamber, stating that jerusalem sent the wrong envoy is condemned to move accusing south africa and algeria off fueling a diplomatic spot. the african union said that it's suspended israel, observe estates. this is due to the incident, which has been topic of controversy since it was obtained in 2021. several african nations have long argued that they would not consulted prior to juice them's admittance. referring to the decision, a shocking, according to said, sank a professor of political sociology at the american university in cairo. the african union aims to fight against colonialism and cannot say exceptional israel's policies. members, organization, or some of them are despite the fact that the f by natural relations with the
10:19 am
organization has a particular purpose, which is fine to listen. you petion. they have been supporting the seniors for a long time and the supposed to. ready steve solution, and they cannot accept israel, which is all the time you know, with securing killing. but as things are very important for former members of the african union, a reduction of israel as an observer. you have as you yeah. you have south africa, which is suffered full time from up to you. and so the look at what is happening as you know, and it's all to them that the put it in the organization. one at the same time, south africa doesn't mind having bilateral relations. but for the organization, this is sort of wholly make. moldova authorities have begun the process of
10:20 am
withdrawing from dozens of agreement, signed between the nation and the commonwealth of independent states, saying is a collection of post soviet states which include russia, armenia, and bella roost. now says moldova prime minister has cold for the demilitarization of the break wave republic with russia later criticizing the remarks. we have to achieve one fundamental goal, demilitarization. everything else comes after that. it's important to integrate our citizens, they're politically and economically, but demilitarization comes 1st. it depends on many things, but at some point it will be done. we have quite tense relations with moldova already. at the same time, the moldova government seems to be making an emphasis on everything, anti russian, falling into anti russian hysteria. such lack of a constructive approach will hardly help moldova itself. and of course it harms our bilateral relations. does this is a region where the population is comprised of ethnic russians, ukrainians, moldova,
10:21 am
and in almost equal portions. it broke up in the early ninety's and concerns of a growing nationalism in moldova, and the ministry conflicts ended in the region with the aid of moscow, mediators. under the peace agreements, russian forces would remain that to provide security to military objects. some people from trans these to shed their views on the coals, which is no idea which that should not happen them. we live normally. here we have a normal army and a normal government. i heard that. moldova is demanding the withdrawal of russian troops in demilitarization, in short, to disarm us, and then do whatever they want with us. because there is probably came if every republic has the right to protect itself. so i think everything should remain as it is. i would not like the russian troops to withdraw because they defend our interests. civil and i have a negative opinion towards demilitarization because 1st of all, these are troops. they protect us and i would not like it if russian troops left. because when they came here, order and peace was established and if they leave,
10:22 am
it's going to be the opposite. the keep a hold of us. former presidents have criticized countries, policy calling the nation not to be stabilized. the situation in transistor of his mother over itself is facing political turmoil, the thousands of forums, the streets, protesting against the government, and especially high energy costs. we spoke to political unless cornell career says that mulder was rhetoric about russian. treat withdrawal aimed is aimed at supporting the west and ukraine maple excuse that in the us. you know, i believe that most dover is now raising the issue, such a sharp withdrawal of troops in order to show loyalty to the west and above all to ukraine. at the same time, she's now does not want military action and tension to accompany the withdrawal of russian troops, which is now government hopes that ukraine will not take any steps. but there is no hope for that. things are going very badly for the current government in moldova. they use the theme of war to show society that they're doing something useful.
10:23 am
we're solving some serious problems, but they create these problems themselves. that's the way i think the government wants to keep its reading from falling by whipping up with nigeria, which is africa's most populous nation on the biggest economy that is preparing for presidential elections this saturday. and here on our team, we're continuing our special coverage of one of the constance most significant political events this year. with over 93000000 people are registered for the upcoming votes with 18 candidates to choose from 3 main contenders of the former governor from the ruling party at bola ahmed to nibble the former vice president and lead other people's democratic party, a ticker above becca, and the youngest of them, the former governor, unknown many of the labor party pizza. obee is guinea must popularity among young
