5:01 am
to help them in that fight have already blushed for 1000 heidi if complaint 1000 man i get the bank at the i see of them to target people who are probably and publicly advertised the old crimes and hundreds of thousands of holes for fleet at home result the terrorists over throw damascus. i'm the shot upside of a head here on the program on a to the stories of some of those who, 5th of that live different the, that brave enough to return to that homeland syria was resolved. so many of us face threats on social media, not just make people make statements like we'll deal with you. or if we see you will take action simply because we voice an opinion the from l. a to new york and christian audit, tel aviv. it is a full set of, you'll top stories lined up and ready to roll here on our team. so kicking off and use are now and straight to the central africa or other, excuse me,
5:02 am
the capital city of chad. i should say in central africa or it's a but just outside the gate. so the presidential palace security forces, open fire on attackers that attempt to distill in the compound of the incidents, the countries of foreign minister addressed the nation. this yes, i am currently at the presidential palace where the situation is completely under control. there is no fear. there is nothing serious. we can't tell you anything right now, but the situation is completely under control. this attempt at the stabilize ation has been eradicated. we are making this message to tell you that we all mobilized to defend the motherland and to defend our president, the minister of foreign affairs, making it clear that the situation and to me not is under control. and these no need for panic off to an armed attack on the presidential punish office that failed . we do know at this moment in fact, from what the minister told us that at least 24 on the meeting were part of this
5:03 am
attack. and early of the pool suspected that these on to mean were from buckle around. but these mean attack to the interior of the presidential palace and a mass shooting a team of those attackers. what killed and 6 interact with one member of the security force killed. and i this also so severely into it and overall to, from what we seen, that's a leading to the presidency, was blocked, and tens could be seen on the streets. but as the minister stay to to the aunt in the disruptions and the situation is under control. but he also did mention that the attack is an attempt to de stabilize the country. while it all comes as you've seen a tit for tat exchange. so that was quiet between chad leaders and the french come to pod present among them across right now. um chads president has expressed his dissatisfaction with the recent statements made by him a crime during the conference. so from bassett is the lead to describe the french
5:04 am
president's remarks as contempt for africa and africans emphasizing that my crime is in the wrong era. and that's of course, as a menu, all mcclellan claimed that the african nations have failed to say thank you for francis military interventions and this the house phone, which i think some after can leaders forgot to say, thank you. it doesn't matter. it will come with time. in gratitude, i am in a good position to know it is a non communicable disease of humans. but i say it for all the african rulers who have not had the courage visa view their public opinions to say it. none of them would be with the sovereign country today if the french army had not deployed in this region one in the so i would like to express my indignation at the remarks made recently by president emmanuel my chrome, which border on contempt for africa in africans i think he's in the wrong era. as far as chad is concerned, the decision to terminate the military cooperation agreement with france is entirely a sovereign decision by chad. there can be no ambiguity about that. and those
5:05 am
remarks came is the result of the break in military relations between chatted france to mean that is clearly assuming its desire to fully exercise its sovereignty by deciding to distance itself from products. she is what the priests attached to say, no mean, and we'll put the best interest of chat and poll position while remaining attached to the sovereignty of our country. it is with this logic that i decided after a careful examination of the situation to definitively break the military agreements with france. this sovereign decision carries with it major challenges that we must face. we have not ruled out the possibility that our own compatriots will unfortunately be used to try to destabilize our country. on the strength of my conviction that this decision constitutes a response to a common and legitimate aspiration of the child in people. i took it and i assume it completely thanks to god. this decision was can you justified by the cheddar and authorities, including the president who insisted that this break was not typically civil and
5:06 am
office 60 years community allies with friends? chad not choose us to talk its own course. and of course, presume a crime is not taking this the right way. so some i really troubling disclosures for you not here on the program. when i tell you we understand military whistle blowers have given close or testimony, the britons a special forces to engage in a deliberate policy of executing f gun civilians. the soldiers are less of a rogue. so yes, unit targeted males, both young and old, even if they pose no threat to troops. it's all about the possibility of suspected war crimes carried out enough, kindest on. so a correspondent picks up the story here is dante is equal to u. k. special forces in afghanistan, carrying the banners of freedom and human rights to protect the innocent and just thrown whom they themselves have labeled as despotic oppresses while instead,
5:07 am
they are now themselves being investigated for acts of barbarism and war. crimes by terms of reference require me to investigation reports for extremely serious allegations. for the extra traditional killings. locality, dodge in afghanistan by virtue special forces between mid 20 to mid to try to 13. whether these were covered up. i said, what was the investigation carried out by the role of the police was fits with that as well. it seems to be on says ok. yes. they to place yes, they will cover it up and no. the police investigation was unsatisfactory. testimonies of the 1st batch of special forces soldiers have been published and they are proud. one of the with this is told the inquiry that the u. k. a lead troops has a quote unquote golden ticket to get away with murder, which was itself
5:08 am
a bit utilized and normalized. when you describe what he said is more graphic, can you give us an example or an explanation of what you mean by that words that had been used about killing were like flat packing, flat packing them or witnesses well grunted and an image see to ensure that they felt safe sharing what they know names ranks, places, according to an informant going on to the alias and 1799. i see us combined is bred a culture of fear within units and whistle blowing equaled treason. it appears with respect to be from the face of the email west than that because in the 1st line it refers to a thing has occurred to ensure that the stuff offices keep their mouth shut. is that how you read that? that is exactly how i read that, sir. yes. basically there appears to be a culture there of shut up. don't question in coming forward and giving evidence both in your statement and to the inquiry today. do you regard yourself as someone
5:09 am
who has broken the code of silence? yes. as to how that might be perceived by others within the why the u. k. s. s. community. is there a danger that you might be branded as a trait to? yes. according to the transcripts of testimonials, the british se, yes, didn't dig deep, and it's supposed search for terrorists. sometimes all the guy would have to be is simply to be of a sudden a age to end up. when i hit list. a funny thing age you may was, in fact the term coined by the combined is, according to and 1799. and the policy was clear, execution and it gets even worse because evidence would be planted on the body just in case anyone starts it asking questions. but you understand from what he said to you that he was suggesting that it was those of a fighting age. yeah, any man capable of picking up a weapon or any very young man capable of picking up a weapon. and as you have just described,
5:10 am
could include those who are under 18 as young as 16 or younger 100 percent. it was comfortable as if this is part of standard operating procedures. it was almost doctrinal, it was normal. but i suppose what shocked me most wasn't the execution of potential members of the taliban, which was of course, wrong and illegal. but it was more of the age and the methods and you know, the details of things like pillows. that's what really is what shocked me and made me think long and hard about what to do with what i've been told. you describe a particular instance where a pillow had been puts over the head of someone before they had been killed with a pistol. is nothing interpretation by you of what had been said or does that properly describe one of the things that he and 2101 said to you? yeah, that is what was described. and 1799 digit code becoming aware from at least 2 or 3 people of room is that weapons had been over being taken on target and then dropped to give the impression that the deceased individual had been. and when shot such
5:11 am
a dropped weapon was colloquially known as a mister wolf. now the inquiry was established in 2022 following accusations that the royal police pro failed to properly investigate you case special forces not rates. and i've gotten this done. and these initial revelations, with more witnesses in the pipeline to suggest the chem and might end up with a lengthy list of names to be indicted on the war crime charges. while i for a to i've gotten this done, this presidential national security advisor suggests indeed war crimes have been committed. as such, actions are extremely difficult to justify legally or ethically, particularly as the victims were an armed and there were lacked tools in affiliations to the top on which undermines the principles of lawful
5:12 am
warfare. the pro is likely to expand on covering more incidents and leading to potential legal actions and indictments for those implicated in more crimes, as well as just sematic reforms within the s a. s. well, the investigation into syria and similar allegations elsewhere suggests the tactics may have been more common. in s a s missions globally reflecting a potential pattern of operations, conduct something that reflects very, very poorly on any group in organizations leading it. all right, have a look at these pictures right here on the program, at least 50 palestinians have been killed by his writing forces in gaza, of which is the pause 24 hours. that's according to local authorities. online video showing the seeing the following and is ready strike on a civilian area, west of gaza, city, multiple casualties, reporting and sort of all this entire war on god's or the war on the palestinians.
5:13 am
it's claimed roughly $46000.00 palestinian lives on israel is basically even, or the civilian cottage on the ground. and all that comes as the nation's finance committed to all of a sudden there's no threatening that a new phase of the war is on its way. which will mean, quote, hell for how much a i mean, well, pro palestinian rights organizations are getting death threats from israel inside the cham and all the handling of that job foundation was won by a top is ready, official to quote, watch his page. and that's in reference, of course, you're a member of the thousands of deadly page or, and will be told the explosions last year that arise lebanon, when i decided to pursue justice against israeli war criminals, i understood the consequences in recent days. following is really threats. i've taken time to reflect deeply once more. my result remains unchanged. after witnessing this genocide, there is no turning back in the face of such grave injustice,
5:14 am
the perpetrators must be held accountable. justice is the only path forward, not revenge, not violence, but justice through the courts of law. so that the chairman of the foundation, establish and memory of this girl right here, 5 year old palestinian, the him the job. now her family was trying to escape from the is ready bombardment of ga. so when that car was targeted by and is ready tank, she survived the initial attack but was killed shortly off the in an ambulance that was destroyed while trying to rush to the hospital while the n g o, the bad, my name is now bringing war crimes charges against a number of israeli soldiers and to show you a map here of essentially a dozen countries with pro palestinian organizations are pursuing legal action one by the way, one case recently all the way in brazil because an idea of a soldier was holidaying the but he managed to escape and evey, the criminal charges leveled against them all throughout the entire council. idea
5:15 am
of soldiers have posted videos across social media documenting their sions against palestinians. we spoke with a lawyer and co founder of the hitting the job foundation about the scope of the organizers activities of the organization. i should say, excuse me, but also perhaps more importantly the challenges that lie ahead. will you be lodging sometimes since december of 2023 so that you don't have any and offers complaints what came to 2 words that they all for example, other minutes just people was high up and to come on and control structure of the so called ideas and other organizations and companies. however, it seemed logical to the next step was alongside these big a legal targets to also talk to people who had very probably and publicly advertise available crimes. and that's why we have already launched a one polls and the idea complaint, 1000 man are you have compared at the i c level along side with that we have 27
5:16 am
individual cases pending and barriers to the success in the netherlands in belgium and france and u. k, a in argentina and brazil that separate 2nd and we are boarding the school. you have various investigative teams within our organization. all warranties, by the way, and we have various various legal teams. so what the investigative teams do, what the investigative units do is we look online, we look at tapes that we received. we look at the evidence, which is always online, either be instagram picked up on various sites. we explore that evidence and if we find sufficient evidence instruction, bronze to actually property with proper documentation, say this person is a criminal. we didn't lodge a complaint in a very in any jurisdiction and we off for the local authorities to arrest prostitute and sentence. however, the trick is to get the authorities to actually act and because of politics because of design is lobby. and because of the general uh, it seems the general feeling amongst law enforcement organizations. that is crazy,
5:17 am
but because of the uh, the effort we put into, sometimes publicizing our complaints, it does become a bit more easier. at the end of the day. we have every show, even if it takes a few months, a year, 5 years, or 10 years. and everybody who has committed war crimes will be brought to justice to syria. now of a half a 1000000 people have been displaced from the homes off of the tower group. so i out to that, i'll show on over through about you all a side on damascus and much of the country last month. imagine thousands have been taking refuge beyond the borders. we spoke with one of those refugees who fled from syria to 11 on and he told us why he has no intention of returning to his homeland anytime soon. i. i was out of his office personally. i don't see myself returning to syria any time soon. many of us face threats on social media, not just me. people make statements like it's, we'll deal with you. or if we see you, we'll take action simply because we voice an opinion. i've never carried
5:18 am
a weapon in my life, but having a different opinion or stance has made me a target for accusations and threats. as a member of she of minority, i've been accused of supporting the regime simply because of my background or perceived affiliations. some believe that because of this, i deserve punishment or even death. not everyone. but there are people who think this way. that's why i don't see a return to syria in the near future. unless a legitimate state is established with security in laws. only then might i consider going back among the threats commonly directed as she, i like myself. the most frequent insult is being called in a rainy entail. the stems from the stereotype that all she uh, are agents of iran working solely for its interest and funded by to ron. i don't understand why she are singled out this way. christians aren't accused of serving the vatican or france, nor are other groups labeled as agents for foreign powers. and yet she, a in syria,
5:19 am
are always painted as working for iran. even though there are well established sheet of families in damascus with deep syrian roots. beyond being labeled as a ronnie entails, there are threats like will kill, you will punish you, or even will slaughter you in the middle of damascus. these are personal threats i've received and others around me have a similar threats of revenge. in one she, a majority neighborhood in damascus. a faction member reportedly said, if we didn't have orders from above, not to touch any of you, we'd slaughter you one by one. that's an example of verbal harassment occurring in damascus and she had dominated areas. i don't have precise data on how widespread such threats are, but i'd estimate over 50 percent of she and syria, a face some form of intimidation. the syrian state crumbled last month. israel decided to capitalize on it and sees the golden heis buffers zone and beyond. so russia's ambassador of the united nations security council meeting. he said that this is
5:20 am
a clear violation of serious territorial integrity. but is anybody actually listening? so what they did it, but we did it because we would especially like to highlight the immediate threats to the territorial integrity of syria posed by the legal actions of israel, which is pursuing a policy effect on the ground in the occupied go down. heights was with 500 square kilometers of syrian territory, have already been seized. israel's actions constitute a blatant violation of international legal resolutions, including numerous decisions of the security council and the general assembly of the goal and the heights has been a partially occupied or should we say stolen by israel. since 1967, it has always been a stone in the side of syrian as riley relations. of the damascus fell israel mobilize as forces unenrolled on through the region with heavy alma seizing the you and established a buffer zone and land pre on the syrian refugee alphabet. once again, while he has his opinion about what israel is actually doing,
5:21 am
of the israel is exporting the chaos in syria to its advantage. for instance, it has seized control of critical infrastructure, such as dams in the golan heights. israel is unlikely to relinquish the strategic positions it has gained, including the elevated areas of mount herman. these positions previously exposed israel's vulnerabilities, allowing as well as drones to pass on detected by securing these elevated areas. israel has expanded a strategic advantage, gaining clear visibility over both syria and lebanon. israel sees us as a historic opportunity to expand its influence, an annex territory in syria, possibly even encroaching on 11, not in the future. historically, israel has been the hidden hand behind much of what happens in the region, not as a conspiracy theory, but as a reality. the current situation serves the interest of both israel and the united
5:22 am
states. as it weakens any forces opposed to them or focused on liberating palestine, i didn't know this area attention to remain high. here's code issue that attends the control much of the region to report. they've repelled and attacked by the tucker, should back free. see where you are. now, i mean, it's all going down to the city of 9 bridge. talkers. media reporting the incorrect broad hits forces to a combat state of readiness. assess the nations for administer gave an ultimatum to the code as fighters and serial. he said you better surrender. because if you don't are the incorrect well, the new powers in damascus will launch some kind of military operation. at least my tongue let the sharp look the ultimatum. wish it was clear, those who are foreign terrors fighters coming from turkey, iran or iraq must leave immediately from the syrians, those in senior leadership positions within the organization. so they need to leave . and so then they know who they are. we have their names, the lower ranks must disarm an integrated into the new system. so this ensures
5:23 am
a bloodless problem free transition right now we don't see any preparation for this or any intent, to be honest. when we issue ultimatums or set conditions, it's to prevent military operations, whether from our side or from the new syrian administration board, but the conditions are clear. we present them simply transparently without hiding anything. well, there we were talking with us, saw that most of them the treatment of the coast democratic union party who says that while to, to be considered old codes terrorists. he says that defending that people about homeless the needs of interest to you is conducting military operations. in northern and eastern syria using its aircraft and drones, we have no choice but to resist. we're defending our existence that is legitimate self defense. we're not infringing on others. we are called terrorist by those who practice terrorism themselves, protect terrace, and use them to attack us. we're not terrorist and have nothing to do with
5:24 am
terrorist. these are false accusations by the turkish authorities to create pretexts for their actions. they regard every curve wherever she is in the world as a terrorist. we certainly reject such accusations and categorically disagree with them. the americans are well aware of everything, but since turkey is a member of nato, they do not wish to confronted. the wildfires continue to ray huge across southern california at least that $70000.00 residents have had to be evacuated sofa in the wake of all these flames of populace extensive and most of entire neighborhoods has been to the ground. it is a day to off the hurricane force winds, find the flames that scorched over 15000 acres since tuesday morning. i found him with the south facing fires on full front on the beach cities, which have seen homes along the pacific coast highway bowden to the water's edge to the most recent blaze erupt. thing in the hollywood hills, at least a 1000 structures have been found to ash,
5:25 am
a divide and even cancel his last 4 and trip as president to italy to focus on responding to the files and outside of the democratic leadership and the region of basically getting blas it for the full response, they basically allowed firefighters to run out of water, and many of the fires are and we understand act to billy crystal, has loved his home a paris hilton, james woods. and steven spielberg's harm is potentially in the line of fire as well . a part of my trudging used for you here from in the at least 6 people repeatedly killed and dozens more injured in me to kind of some p during a religious festival. as i understand people waiting outside of the temple for special tokens to give them free access and some kind of so it resulted in the crowd video showing what happened other for data showing cpr being performed on those either injured or potentially killed during the answer. so cash is king or is it incoming president, donald trump,
5:26 am
the set top his ambitious goal of expanding american territory essentially trying to reach full the global map. as we know, it certainly ruffling the feathers of european leaders, a denmark having recently updated its coat of arms and a bit to highlight. greenland is a part of its own kingdom saying the largest island in the world is not for sale to any one. the question remains, will that stop donald trump? we fully recognize the dream and has its own emissions if they materialize. greenville become independent, they'll haul live with them. permission to become a federal state in the united states. so denmark is saying that even if grima ever decides that it doesn't want to be hits to denmark anymore, that still doesn't mean that it wants to jump straight into anyone else's arms. maybe it just wants to hit the gym and work on it's revenge body. your over indulgence himself, care with some scented bath bombs and purifying crystals. but he was president
5:27 am
elect donald trump hasn't even taken office yet. and already he's sounding like a guy who's going to need a restraining order. and for national security purposes. i've been told that for a long time, long before i even ran, i mean people have been talking about it for a long time. you have approximately 45000 people there. people really don't even know if denmark has any legal rights to it. but if they do, they should give it up because we need it for national security. that's for the free world. i'm talking about protecting the very well. you look at the, you don't even need binoculars. you look outside, you have china ships all over the place. you have russian ships all over the place . we're not letting that happen to him. son don junior, also showed up in greenland this week with some mega trolls on in tow. and trump said that he was quote,
5:28 am
hearing how far away the people of greenland are back. in other words, i'm here and that she really wants me. he goes on to say, my son don junior and various representatives, we traveling there to visit some of the most magnificent areas in sites. hey, it just so happens that my kid will be there if you're up for sending me a sign. they're interested. trump also said the green light is, quote, an incredible place and the people will benefit tremendously if and when it becomes part of our nation, we will protect it and shares it from a very vicious outside world. how chivalry sounds of charming, coming from the guy in charge are soon to be in charge of the country known for going around the world, kicking down doors and taking whatever it was. anyway, here's the german chancellor. all of schultz shrugged off his own north stream pipeline of cheap brushing, energy, getting blown up, trying on some tough talk for a change in mind. just please in my discussions with our european partners and the business,
5:29 am
a certain lack of understanding has therefore become clear. so with regard to current statements from the us, the principle of in via lability of borders applies to every country, regardless of whether it is to the east or west of us. and every state must abide by it. regardless of whether it is a small country or a very powerful state, it is a fundamental principle of international law in a core component of what we call western values. there can and must be no compromise on this. so can you demo back his joke renewal, there's no question that the european union would let another nation of the world, whoever it may i cannot stand. i would even say, starting with russia to attack and sovereign borders and somebody, if you're asking me whether i think the united states will invade green live on the, on the answer is no because of them could have we entered into an error that c survival of the fittest to the answer is yes. well, if this is the era of survival, of the fittest in europe is just spent the past several years trying to wedge its head right inside the lions. most french for a minister, john with that. who says that the,
5:30 am
you won't let another country attack it. the u. s. is already literally devastated therapy and economy by getting it to drop cheap russian gas in favor of an over dependence on pricey shift american liquefied natural gas. so he's a bit late to that part and you can say also much of your ups weapons purchasing is american. you seriously think that the pentagon couldn't break the f 35 fighter just so they seldom foreign countries like these 30 or so sold to denmark. if they really wanted to, like they just for go that minor detail and throw caution to the wind. when they sold these things overseas. how are you going to defend greenland with a 15000 kilogram american made pay for weight? in any case, the outgoing us state department is basically telling everyone just not to feed the trolls please. the idea expressed about greenland is obviously not a good one, but maybe more important is obviously one that's not going to happen. so we
