8:05 am
or any sort of participation in the organization of that assassination. even though the majority of the evidence and are and investigation that were, that was done pointed to the ukrainian secret services. but of course, we're still investigating this story. we're still following the latest updates and we'll bring you the latest as they become available. certainly, look forward to that. don, thanks so much for bringing us the latest. what's dusky it was a prominent figure in the online community of war correspondence. the 40 year olds, real name was maxine foreman and he himself was from the dumbass. he fought in early stages of the conflict from 2014 to 2017 in little guns people's militia. and this experience led to him becoming one of the most. busy followed war correspondence with an audience of over half a 1000000 people were russian foreign ministry spokeswoman. he is a kind of a commented on blood and stuffs his death, saying that it was an act of terrorism. russia journalists are possibly hearing
8:06 am
death threats from the key regime and supporters which are increasingly being implemented. they're harassed, branded in the literal sense with special markings on the digital platforms of american internet monopolies. well, there is a witch hunt in the western media. all this happens with the tactic, disregard of the romans international structures which now can be interpreted as an approval if not complicity. in any case of the violent death of a russian journalist, which was a set by the key of regime and its facts as a success. neither western countries nor international organizations, nor foreign professional communities conduct investigations. they didn't even show elementary human sympathy. not so long ago, the west was fighting extremism, terrorism marching with the united front in paris in defense of jordan, with the gave him terrorist attacks were committed to day the like a free action, the white house, downing street, the alleys they pallets, et cetera, given their claims concern for the welfare of journalists and freedom of journal speaks for itself. as cos live now to form a us marine corps intelligence officer,
8:07 am
scott ritter. scott, thanks very much for joining us this afternoon. just wanted to get your reaction so far on everything that we know about this incident in st. petersburg. well, i mean, it's clear that russian journalist, sir, anybody who practice is journalism with a so called pro russian slant, that means somebody who is willing to put out facts in the analysis that deviates from the pro ukrainian narrative that's being promulgated by the west. your life is at risk, but just be straight up about this. you're being targeted for assassination. not only by the ukrainian government, but is maria's over indicated, at least in terms of complicity by the american go by natal, by the collective west. you know, there's, we, we don't know if the, that the assassination of mr. foreman was done by a mere torrance,
8:08 am
was it done by some sort of radicalized wing of the volunteer group whom the investigation is on going up at the bottom line is for some time now. hundreds of journalists have been marked for death by the ukrainian regime. we know of to recently. busy mr. gina and now mr. foam and a who have been killed. and you know, there are americans on this list. you're talking to one right now. i'm on the barrett for it should list. i've been listed as number one on the ukrainian center for countering disinformation list of cro, russian cropping and assembly war criminal and information terrorist and there are others out there like me. and i, i think that the silence of the united states, the sounds of the collective west is, is definitely, you know, it here we are right now in the united states. we're making a big cry about the rest of the wall street journal of all street journal. a journalist for espionage, we're claiming that it's a front to pre speech. well,
8:09 am
not if you carry out espied, i'm not saying he did. i'm saying that this is not going to vesta geishas, but it's not assassination of a journalist in the front against free speech as well. parker, c of the west. the discount levels to janice has denied the allegations and caves also distances something and pointed the finger, the russian government's possibly evolvement in this book. if enough on steady committee does says that it does say that a bust was planned by ukrainian special services. i'm what you'll take on these 2 differing narrative is certainly something we thought they do gonna incidents last year. you know, my history with the u. s. government tom. on occasion, i crossed paths with the cia and they in the conduct of no sensitive operations covert operations. and on every occasion, the ca denied any involvement. once the events became recognized as
8:10 am
a standard practice of, of intelligent services, i can guarantee you that the russian intelligence services don't jump out and say we did it. if of, if there ever accused of something, you'd deny you deny. and so the denial by the key of government is not surprising. well, we'll let the forensics determine, you know, where the finger pointing should be. and i believe the russian security services are very good. i carrying out a forensic based investigations. and they will come to the bottom of. ready but let there be no doubt we are in the midst of an information war that has taken on a life and death aspect of it. if you dare speak up, publish a somehow articulate in a manner that is seen as an affront by those and kyo, by those in washington, d. c. by those in london, paris, brussels are anywhere in the collective west. you,
8:11 am
your life is at risk. there is no free speech in the west. there is a price to be paid for free speech and mister foam and is to speed their price into speculation. we will have to wait for the results of the investigation. but something that was, that was quite interesting is that the same commit to the on the terrace committee, there was someone accused the elephant of alleys anti corruption foundation, which jeff of allegedly supported as some sort of involvement. and it's obviously, and they say no valley has been incarcerated for some time. and did those allegations come to the spice you the violence aspect of it perhaps. so we've known some time now that the, or at least strongly suspected that alex in the bomb, he has a tie with western intelligence. we know that the early suspect that the ball in the organization is carried out. what we call anti government
8:12 am
activities in russia at the behest of the, of the cia and other anti russian international organizations. but, you know, up until now, unless, you know, again, i don't claim to know everything. but up until now these have primarily been in the form. ready of information warfare, anti government demonstrations, of an anti russian propaganda campaign run inside and outside of russia, and to the best of my knowledge, it never has crossed over into our right violence. so this would have been a surprise if that was the case. but what we're seeing here is the potential for the nexus of anti russian organizations. and if this isn't the true and it can be both true, i mean, you can be a part of the volunteer group and working on behalf of the, of the government achieve this next. this is just $11.00 more example of how the
8:13 am
elements do are opposed to russia coming together to suppress any voice that articulates in support of a russian narrative of facts that are that run counter to the narrative being promulgated by the west. we haven't seen a response yet from, from the valley group to these allegations. so i have to wait and see what they say to that. but if we can, more generally scott's the, what do you make of the security measures? is it possible to keep generally safe? you sent out some strong words before about what you called the information. was the risks that generally run? is it possible to say safe, or was it just an inextricable part of being a journalist during this world that your life is at risk? first of all, anybody who carries out journalism in a war zone is putting their life at risk straight up. but those are the normal risks of one accept. so, you know, you are entering a hazardous zone and you're aware of the risks in you can do your best to mitigate,
8:14 am
but you can't mitigate against a, you know, a random mortar show artillery shell or bullet. there's a difference between that and being targeted for assassination. you know, and it's not just rushing journalists, it's, it's anybody who bears put forward a narrative that's runs counter to that being promulgated by west. i only need mentioned the name of julian a song for people to understand what happens when you dare tell the truth published truth about the policies of the united states. great britain and other nations. it's not just rushing journalists that are marked for this, said julia sanchez in prison. he's being treated abysmally in the equivalent of torture, and some people fear for his life. so yes, if you're a journalist who has the courage to go forward and report in a fact based manner with sound analytical principles, a journalistic principles about this conflict. and your narrative runs counter to
8:15 am
that being pushed by the west. your life is at risk very much so. and finally got to something your thoughts on one last thing. do you think that this is killing of to thought skill fulman, which of the one you want to call him? did? he will be condemned by the west. i am low to predict the future. it should have been condemned immediately as all journalistic targeted assassination should be. the west has a history of being silent on these things. at some point in time when it's politically convenient, they may come out. in other words, of a, of condolence, but again, let me be clear, the united states government funds, ukrainian government in totality. and so anything done by ukrainian government is done with american funding and implicitly american banking. so i don't imagine the united states is going to distance itself from activities, which in itself has funded. we know that the mere thoughts list exists. you?
8:16 am
yes, i agree. we don't know that this is a case like that, but we know it exists. we fund an organized, equip, and help, and sustain the center for countering disapprobation who's anti russian posture has led to journalist being called information terrorists who should be treated as such . this is american policy stated straight up american policy. so i don't imagine that even if they did come out with some sort of words of condolence that anybody were treated anything other than the epitome of hypocrisy. well, we'll have to wait and see what, why to fall out of this death is formula. marine corps intelligence officer scott with as always, thanks so much for speaking with us today. thank you. a residence of russia's northern capital are bringing flowers to the university embankment near the sides of the toxic he's death. scene of the bus itself has been cold enough while law enforcement officers continue their investigation. arisen war correspondence
8:17 am
believe that there are some parallels to be drawn with the attract last year, which took the life of another of another prominent journalist. daria, do you know, now she was killed in a car bomb attacked last august. and daria was the daughter of a prominent on, sometimes controversial russian philosopher. moscow claimed you creating security forces were responsible for that's the thought. and that's something you have denies. we heard from former us marine john mark do good, who believes that there's been an effort to silence pro russian journalists. i was surprised because of you know, i lost another colleague several months ago. doria, deanna and you know, we had to spend time in dumbass together, and we did some projects together. and now him, and, you know, i have to say, maybe some anger because you only see this happening to the russian journalist. you don't see the russians bombing any journalists in the west. there was
8:18 am
a lot of thought that obviously went into this fits if the details are correct, that we're hearing now that a lot of thought went into this. and same thing with dory deanna. a lot of thought went into carrying out her attack as well. so certainly it could have been the same group. they had to have some intelligence and they had to have significant research to do this beforehand. we've seen the west, they are doing everything they can to silence the journalists that are either the even neutral or have a pro russian stance. so they're doing everything they can with the censorship, demonic food, channels, and even resorting. like i said, you don't see this happening to western journalists or ukrainian journalists done at the hands of russian forces. now you only see this terrorist activity done by
8:19 am
ukraine and people from defense against it. and so they have to hide the truth just coming out of their mouth. every terrorist attack we have seen in this operation has been done by the ukrainian military for the west and were talking yes, just the not just the car bombings, but we're talking about the bridge to crimea. we're talking about the nurturing pipeline. every single significant can terrorist attack, or every single terrorist attack has been carried out by these western elements. and it's really, it's, it's disturbing. according to dutch journalists, sonya vanden and ukrainian secured services want to show that they can hit targets in major russian cities. this is the 2nd assassination we can say after that he had to be now they were prominent at russia, bloggers during the list of political analyst at extension. it's the woman again,
8:20 am
i don't think it's accidentally there. 2 times. it's done by a woman and 2 major cities 1st. this was moscow, and now we have st. petersburg. so they clearly want to make a statement that fee we can do tara attacks on russian soil. not only in the door most, most likely it's done by the s b u, the ukranian intelligence service. with the help of western intelligence services, we all know like me and also on the middle of that at least an older journalist who are reporting from the mouse. and this is very terrible. so actually the war has come to a russian soil and not only from ukrainian, but i think there should be a connection with western intelligence services led lenses. coffee was featured in oxy documentary last month, dedicated to a fire fights, a friend of his who was killed on the bus fields in the dom boss. it was one of his last interviews yonkers mccormick. i got to know on trade when we had
8:21 am
a youtube channel called gray zone, the channel administrator suggested recording a video with a fire fighter from st. petersburg. we talked on line, i liked what he was doing. andrea wanted to go to the conflicts side. i was trying to convince him not to. he was an opinion lead a man of words. he wouldn't listen and came anyway. we bonaire mario called back then he learned ready fast. he got into heavy fighting for over the door and pavlov . unfortunately, he was killed by mind together with his friend. he was also a fire fighter from st. petersburg with a skull analyst, alexander povich believes that they may have been of the ide says involved in petoskey death. well, i think this is just a continuation of this total war being waged against russia at stake in being taken out to the streets of our russian cities. and ukraine is just an instrument and certainly it looks like the ukrainian security services had a hand in it. but the green light for everything,
8:22 am
including the persecution of the church. it comes from washington. it comes from london, it comes from nato. so this is just a part of this total war and it's being waged against russia and nobody's going to be spared. you know, that's, that's the whole thing. we just see a midst all the rhetoric of escalation coming from western capitals. it was to be expected that we're, that didn't engage in terrorism as well. we've seen what happened with last year. and this is just a continuation of that until until. busy as long as the key of regime exists now, we can expect more of this in the near future that over to our website for a close to look at the top story today. and of course the, the explosion in st. petersburg, the killed russian war correspondents, bloodline petoskey can find out more about the reports is background,
8:23 am
see eye witness accounts on footage from the scene of the attack as well as the latest dates on the ongoing investigation. so all that and much more on r t dot com no, the news a software engineer claims to decipher a twitter code proving it, uses bias to filter content. that's just one of the recent revelations about washington existing, the influence over the social media platform. when needed, the government can intervene with the twitter algorithm. in fact, twitter even has a class for it. government requested what's, what's theo, it almost starts providing a group of journalists with copies of the company's internal documents last december. the basis for the twitter files initiative created by american journalist i. e v. the files documents and numerous instances of bias by moderators on twitter on topics ranging from cov, it's the selections on the war and ukraine. the papers also seemed to reveal the
8:24 am
platforms contracts with the f b i. the bureaus involvement in the platforms on content moderation, michael rex and water form. and while you professor and author of the google archipelago told us that social media giants are just an extension of the u. s. government security services and not for profit organizations. they're not strictly for profit companies. they are appendages and apparatuses of the state. and the democratic party that runs the state unilaterally. so what we're looking at is rising public consciousness of the to the extent to which the game is stacked, the deck is stacked in a certain way against certain players and in favor of others, against against anything that goes against the official narrative. whether that be on matters of domestic policy, elections, or international policy such as the conflict in ukraine,
8:25 am
for example. anything that violates the official narrative is expunged. and everything that promotes it is promoted. thus wrapped phenomena is peter scott's and i'll be back again at the top of the hour with the latest news unused guides. him thanks for watching. ah, liberal in liberalism was again on display this past week with by the 2nd democracy . so the problem is most of the world doesn't divide countries into democracy's autocracies. in fact, much of the world views western democracy as an expression of ideological the gemini lou needs to come to the russian state will never be phoning those landscape
