is trying to create this over the year. so when the, when you behave in this manner, renew, engage in these types of vision change activities outside. and then some of those things happen inside. you can see that because of the genuine discrimination that differential element has been practicing against minorities for many districts. and then this is a recall called, i think for the face i thought it is to realize that they need to change what they have been doing. and towards other countries and towards their own people. and that's why i'm sure some of the purposes and that's how this view is our team. one of the few outlets that is advertising. so is he just, this isn't actually the, so that's a message outside the director with those people. it's something that i think i can provide. i think the french national police, the lines and stuff that the countries lower and forces quotes and no longer back

to stuff. a big pace of violence minorities wants to take on that statement because in my minds, protesting it is always become a friendship post time. now it's been so constant over the past few years as the, especially since the believe the last election when the crowd actually tends power . i mean, do you think they've just had enough of the demonize ation of the minorities that have been under operation for many decades? that is not the right solution to the problems that you see today. what they need to do is solve this some of this stuff as well for you. there's a fresh problem. it has been engaging in city a system, a big city to the stuff that they need to address some of the social and problems that exist that today and it causes problems. these are the systemic problems that exist in french society and forgot about them in where

there's any other assess the site, just anything to change that. and then you realize that they're moving towards a multi core, the moving towards the world that it's not dominated by the rest. so the sooner they realize that the sooner they engage and what you call soft landing. and making sure that the mentality of the french empire is no longer in the minds of the cutting switch. to make sure that happens if they hear that, then you can have peace and prosperity inferential or the st. cartridge. if they don't realize that they try to cause difficulties for other countries, that the support that they have that you create, you know, try to extend that possibly the cycle find a policy objectives, explain to the dream limits of resources that needs to be a spent and these are the countries they need to address all of the social problems

. and so the billing that the spending videos of the others trying to influence affairs that has essentially from the, the footage that we've seen of the policy today is the majority of the people taking to the streets in front of the page. the defendants of migraines from countries, the countries full of colonies in africa. what does this say about the french government's failure perhaps to integrate space paper into the interest as long as they should just be a wakeup call for them to foster investor? this is a problem, that's all the same documents, including france, have that they wanted to create the origin the these are probably the europeans so and there is the integration of minorities. we did the x make my notes here. so then they just find out that to manually, so that's going to succeed. then you have seen the evidence. so instead of engaging

in this type of gimmicks that they need to address some of the basic needs of the people, instead of trying to direct them to the place that they don't want to be, try to understand what is difficult is r and d, as in the process that you said is not limited in fence, is that limited to minorities or people that is to send in some really good that's from north africa, that the french government went to law process of demonstrations by the native people. i mean for us to look into this as a whole. is it sutherland paul, this is with regard to the comics. the difficulty is that those policies the policy holder in any frank citizens to the problem is i think more then it just the minority. the problem is the true to and the sooner they realize that the better

this way to me for, for finch, future, anything speaking to today, we appreciate your time during side to ryan of us to professor of political communications such as all day thank you. with a mass on rest and phones and spilled over into neighboring switzerland where police have detained 7 people, including 6 use during overnight riots. and the syncing of of the some of the 100 winds is attached shops and police officers, according to local authorities. the unrest response by close on social media to take to the streets and supports of those in phones. the fallen rise happening in front on the 1st of the kind for more on the history of french on rest. that's what websites on t dot com the. so news one rushes across the region now where an explosion is being reported in a military field on sunday. a launch cream of smoke can be seen rising from above.

the bloss no casualties have to be reported according to the local governor and ministry of defense specialists. all right, the scene conducting an investigation into the close of the explosion. and also you correspondent has addressed the meaning of the un security council focused on the current threats to international peace, on security. se bose drew attention to how the shelling of civilians and the don't boss goes on reported in the west. i now give the floor to mister t vows. well, thank you for asking me to appear this gentleman a chairman. and despite well over a year of frenzied and what is now used as loosely regulated supply of ink calculable, numbers a weapon. few grain sources within the country still maintained that it needs an escalating volume of heavy and like weapons and ammunition conducted celebrations. weapons being supplied by nato other allies to ukraine are being with wilfully

targeted against civilian populations. on a daily basis, dumbass, the guns failed. the old miraculous thing. invisible. the western media. following the security council meeting, my colleague discount had the opportunity to discuss the details with shay boz. but it's a huge stage. you know, i mean, as a journalist and somebody who's trying to challenge the narratives which western media, you know, a paddling, you know, regularly daily is it's a huge honor to, to, to get that opportunity. the idea of the meeting was talking about the weapons, the proliferation of weapons, and you can have dangerous that has become and this was the key point that i focused on at regarding the floating of the plane, utility and society, and the impact it's having on the country also the sort of cynical dumping of weapons and refrain by smaller nato countries on, on the promise of being given newer systems for the united states. lot of research

we did on investigations into that, that a lot of this stuff doesn't work. that is actually puts the use as a risk. so we've, we sort of went through a process of examining that, trying to present the evidence that you know, this war was built up since 2014, with nato training 10000 people a year. it didn't just immediately, you know, spring to life. do you claim you and ministers, vice military machine that have been built the acceleration of shelling across the line of contact just prior to the russian military and intervention as well. another thing that came up, i suppose was the you and i'm boss, the russian. you went on boss. so there's a view that the, the key is good is the worst thing to rates is the key every shame and try to present the case in such a way that they began on and ukraine, and even the beginning of the military operation to repel russian aggression this scheme has turned into something like a private military campaign of ukraine in a year and a off good. what is it that we should? what kind of damage has rusher inflicted on the united states o e u. countries that would explain the motives of us citizens with west and

weapons pulled a sabotage on the north stream, $1.00 and $2.00 gas pipeline or terrorist attacks on prominent public figures. how did the remark by the russian representative to you and, and named sides your just, how does it go down? what's the response? did gushing well, you're very quickly get a sense for the sort of practice on the, during the chamber and left a friendly conference. the rush, it would take me to think, max blumenthal, he's a giant of journalism, really, you know, on the dissenting side against this narrative that russia is solely responsible for the conflict and ukraine. so you can see that in the chain with the british, the americans and the nato countries, they seem to have a prescribed response to everything we say they didn't engage in any actual detail and the, the factual evidence that max and i am the boss, are indeed at raised so it tends to be almost a look the other way said there is no intention really to engage with the platform and the ability to project this dissenting view. to present the findings. facts

like, uh, you know, the saving counter offensive and ukraine, which i raise the fact that these very unfortunate young ukrainian men are being sent into emissions that nato forces would not be sent into into prepared, defense has added onto mine fields in, in some cases quite old equipments, i mentioned one of the, our personal carriers that were seeing a lot of in ukraine and the, and 113, developed in 1964. so action in vietnam. yet it's being rolled out across prepared defenses. in the south of, of done that's getting done best against these prepared defences and it just shows the soonest isn't in mind you and this is what i mentioned to the chamber that ukrainian lives are held in at the finish. i, i did mention, i made a point to mention that to represent my visits to areas where ordinary civilians have been shelves with weapons provided by the nato countries. now i reiterated that several times because i feel it's in my obligation to do that. as

a journalist who's traveled stuck with these people, seen their homes burned, it's really incumbent that we use these opportunities to tell the truth about what's been happening in these regions with the member states. so the organization for with law next to operation have coastal collective action in order to put an end to repeated incidents. so there's lot of serbia, hey, what was the organization's secretary general that he's saying? brian's ha ha said during the latest meeting, a mom was well, the member states must adopt the unified physician and collective measures to prevent the reoccurrence of such despicable actions. we need to send a clear message that packets the desk to create the noble kronen and salt our profit mohammed are not merely ordinary as lama phobia incidence. at the same time, we must send constant reminders to the international community regarding the urgent application of international law, which clearly prohibits any advocacy of religious hatred. that comes as people in

pakistan on indonesia have gathered to condemn the actions against as long as harmony book and follows assuming of sweden's embassy in a rock on thursday in response to events install kime with swedish will forward. he's on june 28th to approve the small crowd funding demonstration outside the most can still kind. a mass of protest is a full the way into the embassy grounds in baghdad. security guards were poorly managed to clear the area shortly later. leaders of several predominantly muslim countries have denounced the boat and engulfed the islamic. however, the book is what it shows a mind being detained at the demonstration installed kind of however, he was the one who opportunity that the fire but was rather advice done. the who attempted to throw a stone at the demonstrates a swedish alt ortiz of the ones who were onto permission for the building, and they provided law enforcement protection during the sons famous of. meanwhile nato. tavia and stapleton both has expressed his support for swedish authors. he's

allowing a month to book a career all now sort of still can most. i think that the act may have had some feelings, but it was them to legal. i understand the motion and the depth of the ceiling. uh, this causes on the actions taken up or offensive and objectionable are not necessarily legally in the so room legal system besides discontents from them, at least took care of egypt. tables have expressed that discontent, as well as the russian president vladimir foods. and he did not in the book but didn't give the crime. earlier we spoke to a member of the islamic human rights commission, who says sweden should be ashamed for allowing such a thing to take place. we should be ashamed of being content to blowing themselves to be so ridiculous before the google kind to read. there is no way ceiling car

wash itself. what we want to just show you the level of the level of reaction, deductive acacia. and i can assure you, most in countries will not take it lightly, and no country can be. and i, and i'm assuming something wonderful for us to wear some goals. and if you could, i'm going to be jo sold. i think it would be can, but not to be they should go deeper and maybe the feelings anymore. sure. i think we should do the right thing because if he was on the right to disagree, if you want to one year, it would. finally, we are punished because once each of these is actually in most of the same communities gets pronounced on the benjamin netanyahu. his leadership as well, has increased his efforts to develop most sentiments on palestinian london, the west bank, who was an international outrage as australia at canada. obviously

u. k. have publicly criticize televi tv's decision. i'll tell you what we if an ocean visited the west bank and brings us the details. it is the largest rally. settlement in the middle of the palestinian territories is home to a thousands of jewish families with kids. and it is going to get even larger. these really high planning committee, the entity within the defense minister, responsible for planning area see, has okay, did the construction of mold and 5600 new housing units and a number of supplements all across the west bank, including at least the most pressure people of israel and need all the promised land, as it says in the tool, right? but somehow with a push to one side of the country. now we're trying to settle and we face of all and so of a level with dancing could exist. i'll answer eastern lodge all present in our state. then i know the expansion was a response to a deadly pair attack that happened here and they'll fall from the entrance to it, leads to palestinian gunmen opened fire 1st at the guard and then run them. the

people at the gas station it took the lives of boys railways, bringing the tool to death toll was really killed and terrorist incidents. they tier 228 the highest number in decades part. the reason for the terror attack is for us to leave the region, and every time we are attacked, our roots will become stronger and we will definitely stay here. so every hair attack, we are retaliation will be building more and more because we're here to stay. and we have the right to stay according to his rarely authorities building more homes for jewish people throughout the west bank is nothing but an effective tool to fight terrorist. and for years i have been saying that the appropriate response to terrorism is to fly. that service and at the same time to deepen our roots in our country. indeed, we have been charged and the record number of terrace and also build it in our country on a broad scale according to approve construction plans. i emphasize,

approved, approved and not approved even by these really government. this is a brand new outpost across the least settlement right now. basically, it's 5 mental buildings for 5 dues families who are ready to stay here until the authorities approved a new home. the idea they say is to create bouldering jewish communities in the area, connecting them to a chain and to defend routes. we came because of the attack that 4 of our friends died. they were murdered. and that's why we came here. because when the arabs ones to, to us and they want to separate us from here, we want to come back here and to make the establishment sir. and bigger scale was indeed unprecedented. over half a 1000000 to assess there was leaving new york to find westbank with clear government support in south lemons that are considered illegal on the international law. and the expansion goes on and on. the international community is furious. the

united states is deeply troubled by these rarely governments reported decision to advance planning for over $4000.00 settlement units in the west bank were similarly concerned for reports of changes to israel system of settlement administration that expedite the planning and approvals of settlements. settlements are illegal under international law, as stated consistently, the e, you will not recognize any changes to the pre 1967 borders. settlement activities threatens current efforts to rebuild trust, to resume civil and security cooperation between palestinians and israelis. and to prepare the ground for an eventual resumption of meaningful and direct negotiations . the government of israel should reverse these decisions and hold all continued settlement expansion. but the u. s. b u n. n b u r, faraway palestinians are all around here and they take is rarely expansion as a threat. the town of to the most, i a weakness of violent attack by do stuff. there's just recently was dozens of

cars burned and houses damaged again in response to the shooting at the gas station as like a gas that in the body it keeps expanding and expands the amount of daily basis this threats to the lions until the people. so that's on the call, it's on, so that's on the village, the, the farming, it's right on everything. and that is low open sides slide this time. even though we're on the military control, i think we are the longest nation on that i q patient in the walls. i mean, we just testified back, we can't just sit there, let them keep going. we have to do something about it. we can just let them take our land. it's not right, but it seems the 2 state solution that the world is worried. the supplements policy will prevent from being achieved is locked out of the picture, at least for these rarely government. at a closed door making of the connect since foreign affairs and defense committee prime minister in 10. yeah. who reportedly said that israel and must stop

palestinians. escalations for an independent state construction works are expected to start. so l e is getting ready to bringing new residents as our author is rally assessments all across the west bank and outposts no matter what. it is, not exactly clear how new homes and more to recess are assumed. the heart of the palestinian territories will help counter terrorism. but what is clear already? it is not going to help is the tensions reason. notional ality from elli supplement . but he finds for the company here on the international as always, plenty of all of the latest updates to be found on the website. all teams don't come, we'll be back in 30 minutes with we'll see you then the,

the, the, the welcome to was a part. i take it a go. when historians were revisiting the origins of the 1st world war, the term sleepwalking became very trendy in describing how divergent actors and

self serving actors tangled together to produce one of the biggest catastrophes in human history. as a world andrews, he had another period of tribe always to some number lading, or are we being deliberately lot into and a beast folk to discuss that i'm now joined by benjamin avalon. both are all how the west brockport to ukraine is to add a little bit to great to see. thank you very much for your time. thank you for having me. now the title of your book, how the was brought warranty ukraine is quite self explanatory, and unambiguous but the contrary. and then me wants to challenge that immediately. because after all, it was russia that launched this military operation on the ukrainian soil. and this is something that both decision makers and opinion shapers in the west. so trying to frame as, as an act of aggression,

a totally unprovoked act of aggression that goes against international law. and i have to say there, there's some validity to this argument. why do you think it was the was that was the main driving force behind this conflict? one of the points on making the books is to try to distinguish between what are referred to as proximal causes. the causes that immediately preceded a war and the different causes it can extend back in history for there's no natural starting point for 1. 1 tries to establish just a sequence of events. so that while i make clear that the immediate cause of the war was mister food and decided to wash the war, he and his military staff or whoever else in the criminal was intimately involved with the decision. and that sense, they bear responsibility for initiating the war and if the war could have been stopped and preventive at that point, then he bears responsibility. and of course, the, the russians bear responsibility for how the war is being carried out. what i'm focusing on the book more is not so much the proximal causes but are for it is the distal

causes the causes that extend further back in time that are now kind of hidden from sight that may have been on the newspaper papers. you know, the, the newspaper on the pages of the newspapers years ago and have been forgotten or they may never been on the pages of the papers at all. so it's, i'm focusing mostly on the distal causes and the causes leading up to the current moment. i'm do you know, your book reminds me reminded me a bit the, there's a 2012 best seller by christopher clark on the origins of the 1st world war the, the sleep workers. and one of the reasons that book was so popular is because he tried to break the old paradigm of assigning a culture it then focusing on the who and the why and a step he was more interested in the structural dynamics of swelling, animosity when you observe um, the way the, the rounds develop on both sides of the atlantic. do you think decision makers are

cognizant of how dangerous it could be? and perhaps of the historic lessons of the previous conflicts? yeah, that's a great way of framing it with sleep walking. um, i would make just a couple of points 1st. i think i can't speak for the inner mind of the leaders, but just going from what statements i see being made publicly on both sides. i'm sure there's some cognizance of the threat of nuclear war and the danger of this getting out of control. i don't think there's enough. and that's my fear or, or one of if here's connect with this conflict. i'll also just risk for a moment that your comments about world war one. i think very often in the west and, you know, different people have different opinions. but i think the main street view that's coming out of washington and in the media is trying to impose the model of world war to a sort of hit or like expansionist. and unfortunately, there are even some who refer to mr. put in as

a new hitler or whatever. and this is i would call she warning a past event into a, a current event into a past model. so some people refer to that progress proquest in bed. and i think that the model that people is this actually more appropriate and the greater concern is the model of world war one, where it on control the arms race between as is usually described in there's complications this, but non control arms race between britain and germany. through a series of events and a series of $500.00 controllable circumstances. contingencies led to the outbreak of a war that was a catastrophe. and i think there's a great danger that we may run into that kind of problem now. and it's that world war one model that needs to be attended to closely in the west, and also in russia, of course, world one uh how the united states to accumulate. they cannot make potential. and there are lots of people, not lots, but some of analysts here in moscow who believe that the americans are interested

in having another global conflict as a way of overcome me, the multiplicity of cost of crises that we are facing right now. the crisis of capitalism, the crisis of global governance, ecological crisis, what have you. and i was blame that there are some historical precedents of that. i mean, i only klein's book, uh, the shock doctrine clearly demonstrates how the capitalized aims, couldn't be served by, by the use, by the sanction use of states violent ultimately, is this a conflict about the values of the bottom administration queens, or is it a conflict about resources and, you know, getting preferential, i'm keeping preferential conditions that the united states has accumulated as a, as a head german. yeah. so i don't see this conflict, so as being one of our values, that's not to say that there might not be differences in values between uh,

you know, elements of us population or elements of us leadership and elements of the russian population and russian leadership. there may well be some differences, but i don't see it as conflict as having to do with that. i see this primarily as really, frankly, a proxy war on russia's border that is being pursued by the u. s. and then, you know, powers. and i think that there it's, it's not to say that it's all poorly intentions. i think there are probably a range of motivations. some people probably are not seeing clearly, some people are probably very well intentioned, better and posing outdated models and incorrect models in there or transportation of events. um, but i think um, so i think the geo strategic thing is very central. there are certainly people in elements of the us, the leads that do want to weekend russia. you know, this whole question of a unipolar world. there is concern about that is the will for which doctor and etc,

etc. so i don't see that that's actually uh i, i don't like that. i don't like what's going on with respect to that as far as the financial, the monetary issues, you know, there certainly are questions built in. so the background about the, the role of us dollars, the international reserve currency. there's questions, of course, about, you know, how international markets work. on the extent to which i've really thought about the financial elements of this is, i do believe there's actually much truth to the concern about the military industrial complex. i'm sure your viewers are aware that this is a term that originally coined and popularized by president eisenhower. who was a 5 star world war, 2 general and hero, and in his farewell addressed to the american public. his final tell of his address he wore in the american public of the combination of military, a garage, bureaucratic power, and financial interest of the arms industry. and in fact, he even seemed like he was going to go so far as to bring in the question of

financial conflicts of interest within congress. but was told mister president, you can't go so far. so i think that there are conflicts and financial conflicts of interest and power, conflicts of interest that have played some role in motivating the western stances towards what's happening in your book. you make the point that for 200 years of uh, the us as defense policy. it was uh, based, if not on the respect of done at least paying some attention to the opponents, red lines or secured to sensibilities. and that's when it came to russia. the united states and nato disregarded this, this principle. question number one, do you think they made that decision deliberately? was it a conscious choice? and why would they do that? given that again, the russia is a, is not some 3rd world country. it has nuclear weapons. it has a strong army, it has multiple resources. what do you think would be the ultimate goal of all? what do, what day would be trying to.
