the city was bestowed upon them 5 dogs himself. so let's get off this mountain and explore. the vineland has to offer the chaos groups syria with at least 6 people were formerly killed by us back to the syrian democratic forces using live ammunition to disperse crowds, demonstrating in support of the age test ruling militant us rules out the red carpet for terrorist. now in control of syria and we look at exactly how washington sponsored groups helped to bring about their room. also water and power outages across the crane caused by massive air strikes as local report suggests, russian forces have launched at least 120 missiles. and israel's attorney

once again, openly admitted having ties the syrian democratic forces a long time collaboration in the region under what legal authority or the international national does of us have a full semester in syria. i'm sorry. what is the question? what legal authority, either national or international, there's a us, how the troop presence, a false poster. we've had a true presence and, and i mean the arrangement there for a number of years. again, we continue to operate with the s p s to can to ensure the in, during the few devices. so that has been our mission. that has been our mission from, from the very beginning of the s d. f is not the only party receiving us support. it also has the back of hyatt to rear alshaun militants that have seized controlled, damascus. and the most of the territory of following the power grab us secretary of state antony, blinking,

declared washington's support for the parent military group. various factions are now racing to stake, a claim on valuable lands, adding to the chaos and uncertainty in embattled syria. well, let's take a look now at of who controls what's in syria in the north yellow marks areas held by the us back staff, which is allegedly linked to p p k, the kurdish insurgent group in the east. well, that's as turkish back to militants have taken over the city of man bridge. all of the green is controlled by the h t. s. terrace to israel has another force at play. their latest strike is at the town of myself in the homes countryside in central syria. this latest footage released by the idea of shows the country's forces, striking military equipment, vehicles and infrastructure in syria is really army has. are part of this destroyed is 70 to 80 percent of serious strategic military assets since a sod was ousted by h t. s rebels. well that's while the

h t s continued to save more territory leaving destruction in their way recently released whether it shows them overtaking and vandalizing. the moslem of the late president hafez assad in cargo. huh. in damascus, the have to we are all sean terrorist group has taken over the deposed president, bosher, alo, sides. private residents are t obtained to this footage showing armed men pausing for a foot on the buildings roof. as they unfurled the militant flag, assad's residence was likely rated on sunday after the former leader fled syria. the day after a solid was ousted from power. ctf executive director moore has ms. stuff a had a one on one with us national security advisor jake sullivan, to celebrate the success of the american mission. ortiz saskia taylor digs into the groups role in regime change in, sorry. sometimes the lady rarely dos protests, too much mission accomplished. the syrian emergency task force is proud to announce

that the assad regime, russia and iran had been officially defeated in syria by the syrian people on their own. and without any outside support from the international community. the story goes up from damascus to debt, as or syrians of rows up to shut the shackles of assets through an c t f, which is that you need to is they have no skin at the gate, except we have the receipts on one of those receipts so it's a $153000.00 grant from us 8. and another receipts is straight from the mouth of one of s e t. s. format execs. state department contracting. firms like access resources, knowledge, monex, creative associates, international, a number of the big contractors set up the contracts and pay the syrian emergency task force. oh biggie told the daily caller then are all be credentials,

all these proud bystanders. starting with new asthma stuff or whoever the is regularly visited the terrace stronghold with a live. you'll beat for suffocating sanctions on assets, government, and is one of the obama foundations circle leaders of the future. not really make sense, given them a stoffer was knee deep with both chips and i live in a position during the 2011 arab spring, which we know like syria was also ross routes. there are times in the course of history when the actions of ordinary citizens spark movements for change because they speak to a longing for freedom that has been building up for years. the south was also spoken at chatham house, his bodies. i think these headlines so pretty clearly. he also has the air of the dc lead balances website once boasted about plus he had

a sidekick of settling lawmakers, the real syria, even getting themselves with isis need is sorry, rebels. these terrorists were ton stateside iga to fill the pockets of the defense contractors. we need to take out his hair of capabilities. we need to take out his command and control. we need to give save the fighters the equipment that they need in order to succeed. that should be the policy so far that has not been promised must also it himself is no stranger to all mean. the flight has, has him in action and a 2014 documentary, for example. the good news is, is so excited to send weapons to syria. but he doesn't have when, where and how it would be sent in one box, one batch. this is the 1st batch, 2nd batch would be tanks this way, as you kind doing this money and who paid the money?

then what does this american company do? they went to ukraine and found the weapons. oh yes. ukraine said she has policies happened to just so neatly align with the pen to goods. the button to russian lies documenting russian rule crimes rooting out common sides. syrian emergency task force director malls mustafah added that a desire to aid ukraine was another factor prompting the offensive with the aim of striking a blow against russia a mutual enemy. so it could be a coincidence of policies, so it didn't trust. so maybe they of a has some classified information on pennsylvania avenue. a c t s. offices are off through just a block away from the white house. so convenient that again. if it looks like a duck, swim is like a duck on corks like a duck. then it's probably a government asset. we're really acting as an extension of the united states government. we've become

a resource. then that's one of his policy advice. that's part of the dash events. he's been a super team, his as a parks, head of communications. and now watson, a storm chainsaw in a think tank, which runs pools of as well for american academics. who knows, maybe the next one will include the now occupied golan heights. i'm not just a highlight reel of se ts stuff. so yes, the and you might be a poor doing the syrians hard walk, but make no mistake. those same thing, hands worked well. hand in glove to bring about assets, demise, and also in a new democratic chapter. what are your hopes and fears for what the next phase will be for your country? my fear is outside intervention intervention by authoritarian states, whether they may be our allies, our enemies in the region that want to see,

you know, they are afraid of democracy. you know, they want to see like another military dictator or something that's a huge deal. um, so making sure that countries that didn't help us in our fight against a dictator do not intervene now and in any way hinder our road to a country for its people by its peoples. yes, pays no painting during the road now being taken. slips, throats, public hangings, point blank executions, and assess fax, a new door for damascus, just as the s c t at so tirelessly. no beat for to the great zone editor max blumenthal has led investigations into the syrian emergency task force and explains exactly how washington's money is spent by the group in syria. americans are being told that this was just the syrians with their own hands, removing their government while the syrian emergency task force,

which declared mission accomplished was the main lobbying force for the syrian opposition in washington. and it received backing by millions of dollars of backing from the us state department from usa i. d. and it receives assistance from the pentagon. in fact, it uses department of defense transport planes to bring a into roof fun camp in the syrian desert, which is where many former ices figures are said to be held or family members of vices figures. so for a group like this, which has been backed in almost entirely by the us government to declare that regime change or their view liberation of care occurred without foreign assistance, is just laughable. and the height of hypocrisy. and it really highlights who's behind the forces that have stormed into damascus. they're not acting

in interest of the syrian people, while the syrian people might be happy, they have so many for an agenda. is it play now probably more than before or from washington turning up story intentions to media spinning terrace into freedom fighters, medical science professor john mearsheimer brought his take on all that and more to going underground. you're going to catch his interview with host option return. see on saturday, but for now, there's a quick preview. how this all plays out moving forward is almost impossible to say . other than it looks like. there will be considerable chaos in syria for the foreseeable future, because it's hard to see a co here in government forming in damascus that can control the entire country, is, is a short term success in terms of the united states. and do you see the hand of a phonetic blinking state department here? it had to be an organization of trump on the 20th of january. well, it is

a short term success. uh, there's no question about that. uh, what happens in the long term is somewhat difficult to say the $10000000.00 bounty is still on the website that the us state department of doing the blinking. so what i can get $10000000.00 of i tell you will government to information about the kill july any whatever his real name is. you're asking me, am i surprised that that's up there? i am surprised that they haven't taken it down. i mean, it's quite clear that the administration and the mainstream media in the united states is doing everything they can to clean up val gilani and portray him as a changed man to make him look like he's now thomas jefferson and no longer an advocate operative. we basically too are locked in with a number of out cade and isis offered tips and they won and they have scores to settle different, sorry, started

a job and they keep telling the public in the united states i or the united states more interested in uh, united healthcare, so you can play, but certainly in the information in west to be a rep on uses. know this guy's good, and look how terrible asset was, what a torture he was. of course, i mean these journalists understand full well most americans understand full well. there's all sorts of this course, you know, in the media here on this very issue that the united states is supporting a terrace and that the terrorists or the rebels call them with you on have one. but i think when you ask what's going through their head, i mean, it's pretty simple. everybody knows the basic story here. uh turning now do you, kramer, reports of water and power outages are coming in from across the country with

missiles, allegedly targeting western regions. reports also say that russian forces launched at least $120.00 missiles. they targeted a close the air field in kia for f. 16 pilots are being trained a drug production site, as well as a weapons warehouse. that's as the ukranian foreign minister is demanding western states provide cab with more defense systems. neighboring poland has put its air forces on stand by sending plains into the sky along the border. but committed to supporting your train until the very end. 6 major european natal members have released a joint declaration which states they are all in and working to bring care of and to nato and the you. the goals of a comprehensive just and blasting piece for ukraine and durable security for europe are inseparable. ukraine must prevail. we will continue to support ukraine on it's your reversible path to full euro atlantic integration,

including nato membership. as russia has repeatedly stated, ukrainian membership in the north atlantic block is a red line because of the significant threat. it proposes oppose us to national security and also signals that western expansion to the east and bringing new crane and tomato was a cor reason to set in motion the russian military operation in 2022. but even the lines and stuff, officials sometimes admit accession isn't a done deal. former nato too, if you're in stoughton, burke has said multiple times. the conflict with russia is a problem for ukraine's admission being considered. and that is a long term perspective. what is that? what is the issue now is to ensure that you claim to be assessed on an inbound independence nation and therefore needs as a force to ukraine weiss at the long timeline to bring in ukraine. you've talked about a 10 year window. why is it 10 years versus maybe one or 2 or 3 years since they're facing war? well, no one knows. so the executive, 10 years, both about but it's almost as it is a very serious issue to bring in ukraine because your credit is not

a country out or you can, has been attacked by a blood rush. all. so the most important thing we, we should do is to step up our support to claim to ensure that you can provide as a precondition for an a future membership for your plan. and well, biden's lane, the government is funneling another $500000000.00 of us military aid and zekia of trump's top aids have presented the president elect with 3 peace plans for the complex and all of them exclude who created becoming a natal member anytime soon along with territorial concessions, we spoke the finished news, edward your youngest book and then who says the west is only interested in grabbing the left over pieces of ukraine. i wish to the starting day apart from that we'll create a new territory and we will see that to bring as it has been doing since 2014, it's collapsing, small, smaller and smaller pieces. and as we see now,

so in these documents, which was done in the, in the european union by the needle countries that everybody wants a piece or it just makes gradient be posted. died they are, they are blasting the concrete for some very, uh, different kind of patient bushing. no, very strongly actually from the way of doing the ball was to bunch of great, but sweet. seems like they are leveling crane doll perfectly. they they be. they want to rush it to destroy the modern grain as we know it today, but, but in the same done, they are more than willing to rebuild it. but with their all terms, went out to israel, where for palestinians have died under interrogation by sion, beth, the country's internal intelligence agency that's according to local media reports,

which also claimed as rails attorney general has ordered 2 criminal investigations to be opened. middle east bureau chief maria from ocean i has the details so based full power steering is held by israel's internal security agency. the shing bed have reportedly died on the interrogation since the war in gaza began. there were some faithful with by these really day it's revealed. one of the victims was dr. eod audit and t. c had of the maternity department at cumberland, one hospital in gaza. he reported they died on november 16 to $6.00 days after his arrest. while his really officials attribute his death to hard paler injuries and signs of trauma found on his body suggest otherwise raising serious concerns about the interrogation methods used. the identities all the other 3 victims remain on disclosed for now. and it's unclear whether they were captured in guys on or in the occupied westbank, holding and investigation by the ministry of justice is complaints unit. these

really attorney general's office decided against luncheon at criminal pro, into shame that personnel in a place. 2 of these cases says how mazda is attacked on october a 7 last year, and a 's realm has carried out wides private arrest across the valley. city in territories, in the west bank and gaza, with thousands detained reports from india and human rights organizations, pain and green, picture of overcrowded prisons and dia conditions, as well as administer of national security, defend v, or has opened the 1st at about these tough measures. many detainees reported exposed to torture and humiliation data from israel's prison service reveals that in the 9 months following last october 11th, detainees have died in custody. 2 of them on the sheen patch, interpretation official records. never site torture as a cause of death and accountability remain scarce from 2014 to 2022,

only to sheen bad officers faced criminal investigations. and again, in this latest case, no charges have been filed at all. human rights groups are speaking out strongly infusion is really authorities of systematically using torture, right? from the moment people are arrested. take and listen. since the beginning of the genocide, a war against palestinians, approximately 50 full mouth is from old palestinian provinces have died in his really occupation prisons due to torture in humane conditions, systematic abuse and deliberate attacks. it's worth noting that the occupying state continues to withhold information about the killed prisoners. as reports have revealed the depths of dozens of mottoes inside camps and prisons. their families know nothing of the fate of their loved ones or the names of those who have died in these camps. this underscores the scale of the humanitarian disaster,

the prisoners face in november, or the palestinian prison, our society, and other n g, a advocating for detainees, writes highlighted what it described as catastrophic conditions. and it's really prisons, the organization linked the dest over at least, to detain needs to severe mystery twins and medical negligence, according to their reports, since the war in gather started, 49, palestinian prisoners have died in his really cost of these 1st 2 of whom were from guys, and so you use the human rights groups findings directly challenge the official narrative and code for urgent action. they shouldn't. but how, wherever sir, it's that's responsibility for any detainee fatalities lies with the military. but we know that at the and no one is held accountable, neither the army noticing, by the way, the, all these really agency stay in central dies or the idea of strikes have are part

of they killed 25 people and wounded dozens more. a warning you may find the following images disturbing. a local media claim of the attack at a residential building in the news era refugee district footage emerging on social media. so civilians and emergency workers and searching rubble for survivors. in the immediate aftermath of this comes in med guys as rising civilian desktop, which includes a shocking number of journalists, killings, according to a new review by the press, freedom organization, reporters, without orders. the media has come under increased attacks in conflicts, jones this year. 50 for journalists, world wide have been killed in 2024 was a 3rd of them said to be victims of v as really army and gaza and 11 on report maintains more than 145 media workers have been killed by the idea of since the war start in october 2023. before is without borders has filed complaints with the

international criminal court, accusing israel of committing war crimes by directly targeting journalists for earlier this week. us secretary of state and they blanket and hosted to human rights defender awards ceremony. and honored individuals fighting for freedoms, including that of the press and me and mar, donna bolivia, columbia, and elsewhere. journalists, reporting from the complex zones in the middle east though, were not mentioned that is despite blinking, previously calling for quotes and wavering support for reporters. throughout the world will sort, terry and governments, a non state actors, continue to use this information and propaganda to undermine social discourse. and then p journalist efforts to inform the public hold governments accountable and bring the truth to light. we call on every nation to do more to protect journalists, and we reiterate to unwavering support for free and independent media around the world. and we heard from middle east risk consultant alessandra bruno, who says the us gives allies like israel preferential treatment and is enabling

it's more crimes. it's, it's part of the special relationship that the united states has with certain states. and the in particular is around lewis should be giving it to complete the rest. that's why community they assembly, it doesn't get blamed and the no action is taken against the united states team member has to protect itself. but the reason why it doesn't even have to do that because it's got this permanent and very willing lawyer on that side, which will help to the whitewash. any crime, not just media or crime. i mean the. ready it's, it's quite sudden link to me the, the things that i regret through the media were silent. donna and i'm here

when we have blaring examples of this in the, the progressive. alright, just stay with us here on our to international up next on inland visions, my colleague peter scott, takes us to russia's land of 5 elements, the republic of hockey by the, the russian states. never as one of the most sense community best. most all sense and up the in the system must be the one else holes. question about this, even though we will then in the european union,

the kremlin machine, the state on the rush to day and split the r t spoke neck. even our video agency, roughly all the band on youtube, the fitness center. for what question did you say, even closer to the have goodness and has attracted conquerors attention from time a memorial in the 19th century, the british empire decided to subjugate that century. the british view, the afghan lands as the northern gateway to india,

and wanted to turn them into an obedient province, trying to predict the independence fee a mere of a dentist in the us. little homage turned for help the russia raise. the rate is considered their deal political adversary. this was the last straw for london. britain declared war on the half gans in august 18, 39. the invaders occupied couple and brought their heinsman to bowers. the invaders brutally suppressed any resistance. the name is dully they slaughtered all i have gained man who had reached the delta. stan raped hundreds of women seeking to humiliate the muslims to 1841. a general uprising against the british yoke began the british, under the command of general elton stone left couple and started to retreat. only a few out of the 16000 invaders who had begun their march from google made it to the british position in jello. but the defeat of the royal army caused

a norm is damaged to the prestige of the british empire throughout the world. the victory of the afghan people became the most important events in the history of the oppressed peoples resistance to the colonialists. it just failed the races. smith of the european invincibility plus the silver side of the lord. how can it be that um the ship to the middle east from a country whose top officials constantly complain about shortages of munitions and military equipments is literally locate in the booth but of boston llc. or even though the old one used to stand with below grade level nominal facility or some of those other slash we, i'm about to the easiest you to know. we also want to know, we have more of an easy somebody mobile bubble, a sort of wellness special kind of the piece that have gone on now. well,

why are weapons from ukraine spreading on over the world? who to this country and to a major arms hub, will continue to bolster ukraine's and forces by rushing them occasionally use that they need to defend their country. the everyone knows very well that we don't sell but known as pineapples or any kind of children's toys. we sell women's yes, we're also known in the world as arms dealers that we must not be ashamed of that the, to the mountains and on the steps the wall.
