S. Led coalition would help resurrect mosul since its Bombing Campaign created much of this destruction the americans in bluntly said no we freed you will spend two hundred odd Million Dollars fixing the pipes but aside from that you are on your own as a call issue and we are not in the business of nation building or reconstruction we must ensure that our respective nations precious and limited resources are devoted to preventing the resurgence of isis and equipping the warring torn communities to take the lead in rebuilding their institutions and returning to stability and the civilians in mosul the desperate and hopeless few that have returned have nothing shes never hungry out to get out of you know you go to school.

K. s high court has ruled against the extradition of an alleged british hacker to the us laurie love is accused of carrying out Cyber Attacks against the f. B. I. And among other organizations but the u. K. s lord chief justice said extradition could the how to face life at risk across the story this hour polly bucko. Holding hands with his family larry love left londons royal courts of justice having won his appeal against extradition to the u. S. Where hes wanted for allegedly hacking into u. S. Government websites and very thankful. After a very long ordeal that the right result has. Been we can exercise the sovereignty of our legal Justice System you can have a reason lets play station they go be treated humanely and if they have engaged in criminal behavior that they will have unfortunate and things inside the court when the judge read out his verdict the chair is in celebration was so loud that the judge was forced to remind lowery supporters that this is a court of law and not a theater throughout the legal battle the alleged attack is legal team had argued that his was a case of life or death love has aspergers syndrome and a depressive illness his family and legal team said that he was at high risk of suicide and the u. S. Incarceration system couldnt guarantee his safety it was very unfortunate the prosecution tried to paint the Mental Health conditions as being made up fixation is come for and that contributes to the stigma of people with them so this isnt as important for. Ministration of criminal justice and also for the humanitarian accommodation of people whose brains work differently so the case was remarkably similar to that of another british man accused of hacking into u. S. Government websites Gary Mckinnon who has autism back in two thousand and twelve his extradition was also blocked but it was that then home secretary theresa may who did it since then the powers to block an extradition have been transferred to the british courts and larry loves case was its first test but not all his legal troubles are over its possible the americans might decide to appeal i dont know if thats going to.

Just to say proud disdain comes to educate and in games from an equals betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart when you choose to look for common ground. And what holds his hands to somebody. Who put themselves on the line. To get accepted or rejected. So when you want to be president or injury. Or something i want to reach. Out to the right to be crushed thats what before three of the four people. Im interested in the waters of my. Question. Back with our international rushing is envoy to the United Nations house told a Security Council session that most school believes the proof since for investigating Chemical Attacks in syria has been sabotaged with my pain is following this story he joins us live now from new york good to see you again talk us through what was said during the meeting well the u. N. Security council the fifteen member body that leads the United Nations convened a meeting to discuss the investigations in the chemical weapons in syria now the russian envoy took the floor and addressed the meeting and in his remarks he emphasized that the investigation shouldnt simply focus on the Syrian Government or on isis but should instead focus on any use of chemical weapons in syria he made a point of pointing out that there have been many reports that antigovernment fighters and insurgents that want to overthrow the Syrian Government have been using chemical weapons he emphasized there should be a presumption of presumption there should be no presumption of guilt when investigating and that should simply be free from politics these investigations should be politically motivated it should simply be about getting to the truth about who is using chemical weapons and who isnt now he also invest emphasized the fact that the Syrian Government has fully cooperated with the investigation that they the Syrian Government has been just one hundred percent cooperating with the investigation of the chemical weapons this is the russian envoy. Who was used. Syria has informed the International Community including the un Security Council that it has found dangerous chemicals in areas liberated from the terrorists which must be immediately investigated by the. Now back in january russia put forward a draft resolution putting forward a different way of going about investigating chemical weapons in syria they put forward that the un investigators should only gather evidence and present it not reach conclusions they argued that the use of chemical weapons should be a stablished beyond a reasonable doubt and one of the main points of their draft resolution was that they should actually visit the site of the alleged chemical attack they should actually visit the sites where these things took place before that they make pronouncements about in this seems to be just kind of basic visiting the scene of the crime well russia proposed this and they proposed it in response to the words of the joint investigative mechanism now they investigated the alleged chemical attack in qana shake back in april and russia went over their report and called it amateurish so that just basic things hadnt happened they hadnt visited the site of the chemical attack they had relied on rather less than credible sources now the american and british envoys then criticized russia for its draft resolution saying that it took the council back to square one in their investigation but then russia went forward to talk about deliberate attempts to undermine the investigations of chemical weapons in syria by certain countries this is the russian envoy speaking. To the good news today is country who considering last years issues were conscious and basically it seems the investigation was deliberately sabotaged. Now at todays meeting it was very clear that all the countries agreed that we need to find out who is using chemical weapons in syria establish the truth however where the disagreement was was that many countries seem to disagree about how exactly that could be done and what mechanisms could be used to investigate the use of chemical weapons but the whole chamber was in agreement that chemical weapons and their use was not acceptable live from new york city this summer thank you for that. The International Olympic committee has rejected the request of thirteen russian athletes and two coaches for invites to be fast approaching winter games the sports men and women were recently ruled not to have violated doping rules by sports highest court the i. O. C. However still has the power to decide who competes and who does not were right this is st procedure. Extremely disappointing constitution. For petes. The privilege to be in right. Then just at the end of a same. Soul we have the rights of. The athletes were seeking invitations to compete along with other clean russian competitors under the banner neutral athletes from russian the swiss space court of arbitration for sport said on thursday the i. O. C. Has evidence the twenty eight can ban substances was insufficient been twenty cases the evidence collected was found to be insufficient to establish thats. True violation it was committed. Concerned. Well the i would seize decision has infuriated a number of russian officials the countrys Prime Minister has said the committee has violated the olympic charter and basic legal principles a representative of the countrys bobsleigh a Federation Even went so far as to describe the Decision Makers as puppets on the head of the Cross Country Skiing Association has claimed and war is beginning ok lets bring in stuart gill who only stewart is president of the law society of art and with a particular expertise in sport law to pleasure having you on the program steered the russian not least as were just going through the area as you can imagine overjoyed by the cost this season this i. O. C. Ruling has now shattered their hopes of competing firstly what do you think of the decision. But i certainly find it a strange decision given that they have allowed an appeal mechanism to costs have a cost of a made the decision that they have them seem to be effective ignoring that position it does beg the question as to what the purpose of having having an involvement would cost and in the Olympic Movement is if theyre actively going to ignore the decisions of them well there are some points in it as well that are very different what do you think of the i. O. C. Somewhat vague assertion that it has evidence of doping on the part of these athletes that was not made available to cas thats what the i. O. C. Is saying and then this base is clean enough from what would be for many the biggest event of their lives. Yes certainly seems like an extraordinary suggestion that the original attention was based on evidence which they have now theyre now suggesting that this evidence was has come to light sense i mean why was that not provided the court of arbitration for sport on this this happens only come to light since the the hearing acoss it seems like a very strange way of going about things i was far as im concerned the i. O. C. Should be operating on the basis of the decision the cops have made as i said whats the point in having that system if theyre not going to adhere to it i do appreciate however that one of the one of the points of the i. O. C. President has made is that they havent actually received any reason decisions and i suppose they are somewhat in the dark as to what the reasoning for kathy is on that they do have the option of course appeared in that decision to return Supreme Court well that might be time constraints as well wouldnt it because were getting very close to the start of the winter games for the athletes themselves their point of view is they went to sports highest court and won their appeals were upheld is there not any way do you think that the athletes can take part that they can appeal the i. O. C. Decision and go to the olympic games. Yeah i mean it seems to me that the im not familiar exactly of what the i. O. C. Sees rules are on this but this seems to be the only method they could adopt would be to appeal that decision that is just a made again to the court of arbitration for sport but that would assume that such an appeal is allowed in those circumstances and im not sure that it is also again you know imagine that such a decision couldnt be reached before friday so it does look as though there arent really many options left for them on less pressure is brought brought to bear on i. O. C. To see a bit of sense in this do you have a view on the overall picture of what is happening here and to what extent do you think that this is perhaps being driven by politics rather than an objective review of all Available Evidence because we are looking at athletes who have competed in many global events have never doped and now are not able to compete in what would be the highlight of their career but it certainly would appear to me that i just remember the i read and i know as much about it as a few do in the sense that i only read what the what i read in news feeds but it does seem to me that political pressure has been brought to bear in this situation its hard to see. Where a sort of a legal reasoning can come come about in the decision certainly theres been a huge amount of pressure put on the i. O. C. Over the course of the last six months or so particularly relation to russian athletes and i think there i think there will be such a backlash if they were allowed to compete that maybe the i. O. C. Feel that the that there be a lesser backlash if they if they need them out which is of course thats pretty unfair the cleanup that involved assuming of course they are clean the competitors are caught in the middle arent they circularly president of the law society or of their ardent its a pleasure to have you on the phone with thanks to you at this hour and that is all our news for knowledge only get half an hours time with more global news from moscow. The memo his come and gone but this controversy is far from over the political bias of the deep state has been revealed and the illegal activities exposed who if anyone will be held responsible. The u. S. Is losing in two ways number one the climate denying is precluding them from the dissipating in this new economy number one and number two the effects of the Climate Change and why the catastrophes the global you know migrants that are the result of it all this other problems are hurting the us economy on the other side of the trade so youve got a double bind. Heres what people have been saying about redacted in the night we do exactly just pull on awesome the only show i go out of my way to launch you know what we want to do is the really packed a punch oh yeah because the john oliver of Party America is doing the same thing we are apparently better than two thousand.

Taft hollywood guy you know suspect every proud american first of all im just george bush in our view to say this is my buddy max famous financial guru and well use a little bit different im. Going to harness the well you know with those up with all the drama happening in our country on the road have to meet Everyday Americans at home and hopefully start to bridge the gap this is the Great American people. Oh. Oh welcome to sophie and co im Sophie Shevardnadze new sanctions room in the u. S. Russia standoff what is a spat mean for the world and is terror on amps to it my guest today is Matthew Barrios as cia veteran alice and a former National Intelligence counselor. Chaos in the middle east the Nuclear Threat in korea the trade war between russia and the west the world order is being tested on multiple fronts and without a clear by poor a system where sole superpower good what we know all be on the verge of collapse will at leaderless world balance itself and find ways to move forward was a doomed to descend into chaos and anarchy. Dr Matthew Burris a cia veteran analyst and a former national in town just. Welcome to the show its really great to have you on our program so matthew the world is no longer split into like during the cold war and clearly u. S. Isnt leading the world like try to in the ninetys so she will be bracing ourselves for a cast in this new lateral reality chaos maybe a strong word certainly instability because i dont think we have really achieved some sort of equilibrium the us is trying to find a new role for the self other powers as well so why though why it why is it so bad i mean weve had it leaderless world for many centuries before and we were find well that leaderless world had quite a few wars in it and obviously i think you know our own. Advertize i mean for conflict is very very low these days and public server much more eager to see economic improvement than they are to. Actually get into a fight with the neighbor or or with other powers in the world. How volatile is to current state of u. S. Russia relations i mean do you see more a sort of a stability within this confrontation or is it teetering on they are predictable and dangerous. Its its certainly is unpredictable i would say its potentially dangerous if it keeps. At this low level of of non cooperation. You know weve had differences before but weve also been able to talk to one another and we also add those channels of communication and at the moment even between you know nongovernmental bodies there seems to be a very low. Low communication between between the two so is it a sad as to cold warrior out or even worse in a way well its worse in the sense that there isnt that communication i think it is different in the u. S. Really sees its peer competitor is china so in some ways you know is not is concerned i i dont share that that belief but is not as concerned about russia they see russia as a declining power and therefore a power that in their minds should we shouldnt have to pay that much attention to so that is a very dangerous situation. Donald trump who looked like it could be a blessing for a moscow washington relations cheering as companion is now conducting they were russian business in an even more adversarial manner than barack obama why such a huge turn first well i. I think he is hemmed in with finished yet i mean i am not sure that he has changed his views i mean his views were always that we should be trying to cooperate together but he is a weakened president theres an Ongoing Investigation as im sure you know about whether there was collusion between his campaign and and russian authorities so he can voice and he sort of. Argument for better relations but i mean hes the president of the United States who can hammy then if you want to have a Good Relationship with russia you should have a Good Relationship with russia doesnt his word mean anything what kind of president is that. I. Mean this is the definition of a weakened president. You know has congress who is passed sanctions almost unanimously he couldnt veto it. And so he asked still by by that legislation and he can actually voice much sentiment for better relations without implicating him him selfie in some sort of conspiracy with russia or collusion with russia can give the Russian Investigation coupled with possible democratic gains and that they can twenty eighteen meet term elections in the us bring matters to a crisis point and impeachment trial even well. I mean it depends if the Democratic Party wins both houses because it is it can impeach in the house of representatives so with a majority if it wins a majority after the november elections it could bring in pietschmann proceedings. In order to. Convict a president. And throw him out of office us have to have a trial in the senate. And its not clear if the democrats can win the senate. I mean you know bill clinton was impeached as well but he wasnt convicted i think when it comes to it a lot of legislators both on the republican and democratic side may actually hold back from going through particularly with a conviction not so much the impeachment now its been done against bill clinton so theres a precedent. So that you ron dale and some progress in syria shows russia and the United States can sit down and tackle global problem successfully if then it arises is this how its going to be for the foreseeable future sanctions and hostility mixed with pragmatic operation. You know that is certainly. I mean its a step maybe in the right direction where you can get more cooperation on different issues. You know hopefully at some point that cooperation improves there a lot of east shoes like arms control where we need to be talking with one another so yes i mean fully it doesnt stay there and minimal cooperation but moves up so more and more cooperation the u. S. And russia managed to deal with it on an issue together and now we have another Nuclear Classes with north korea can the two countries go again and say down involved china get the koreans to work things out pull this off one more time. It will be it would be easier for the u. S. To deal with russia as part of a group of countries along with china japan south korea and others it is very difficult to at the moment to have those bilateral talks. At least openly and even if you have them behind doors there are so many leaks from this administration that its very hard to carry on diplomacy. You know with russia without that leaking so yes i think you could see in a. In a broader setting where you have other powers you could actually see improvement in the cooperation and that may build some trust back into the relationship. Now during the john kerry years so was hope that this approach of working on some issues while clashing over others will actually lead to a comprehensive mending of the russia u. S. Relationship but that hasnt materialized why doesnt taylor send continue working this line. Well there has been you know a sea change and nobody saw this exactly coming but you know obviously there are dead there are difference here is on the interpretation but most americans believe that there was russian interference in the elections so they see that as an attack on American Values so during the kerry years and even before that during the clinton years there was more of a willingness to in their mind reset relations after they had. Deteriorated on one issue or the other host ukraine crisis and certainly. Particularly now with with still the investigations on what happened in the elections going on its very hard for tillerson or any or trump as weve discussed to make the case to the American Public that we should have better relations now despite the hostility if the americans and the russians so i say why when it came to fighting isis and now the terrorist state is all but defeated i mean should we expect the u. S. To distance itself from problems like syria and play out well. I would say under the trumpet ministration there is been more disengagement. Although there are as efforts now in the state department elsewhere to begin thinking about reconstruction in syria i would say in my own mind i think you know both russia and the u. S. Have big interests and share big interests. In syria i mean both of us dont want to see more instability or terrorism but there is a huge disagreement on tactics you know u. S. Is not. Making it a condition anymore that assad leaves office but never last theres still strong anti assad
