Knife from a moscow studio where its 4 oclock in the morning youre watching r. T. International welcome to the program we start with this prosecutors in sweden say theyve dropped a 9 year long rape case against wiki leaks for cofounder julian a song as the evidence has weakened over time the decision will likely clear the way for the whistle blows extradition from the u. K. To the u. S. Where he faces espionage charges neil harvey was joined by donald quarter with the latest. You know this whole saga started out did it with that with the rape allegations against us and youve been through the whole mill since then but now were back to those initial charges thats right neal exactly it was in 2010 that the swedish government filed in International Arrest warrant against songs for 2 charges one of molestation and another of rape but assad has always denied these charges hes even cooperated with the International Investigation from abroad and it was the threat of extradition to the United States if you were to have been arrested in sweden that forced him to take political asylum within the Ecuadorian Embassy in london and now it turns out that this case that started it all doesnt even have enough socalled corroborative evidence that the evidence sherry basis is such that he corroborating evidence is not sufficient to in a way that is prescribed by the Supreme Court deemed that the description of the alleged criminal act can be proven. Earlier today the swedish prosecutor explained her reasoning for dropping the charges she said that the witnesses involved were were credible but over the years the case itself had weakened and in the q. And a that followed she also said that the heavy media influence on the witnesses was another important consideration that they took into consideration the 1st inspection suppose of june the soldiers might think this is good news but things are rarely that simple do you think it is good news well at 1st glance it certainly seems so but i mean the original fear was that if a songe was arrested in sweden he would be extradited to the United States but the fact of the matter is that the situation has changed since then and lets not forget hes been sitting in a u. K. High security prison since april sancia has been i mean the government is set to decide his fate in 2 1020. 00 and the United States has already filed an official request for his extradition to london so wiki leaks has already said this actually only means that sweden is no. Longer going to be competing with the United States for the extradition rights over a song now as for what awaits a songe in the United States if he is extradited that while he is probably nothing fair i think a son should be assassinated actually. Contract that maybe you should draw or something but this guy is a traitor a treasonous and he has broken every law of the United States the guy ought to be shot im not for the Death Penalty so if im not for the death and want to do it illegally shoot the son of a i think the man as a terrorist can act tough and say if we catch you were going to hang you whatever wiki leaks walks like a Hostile Intelligence Service and talks like a Hostile Intelligence Service ignorance or misplaced idealism is no longer an acceptable excuse for lionizing these demons and why has the us been so set on getting its hands on the songs well see for yourself. I mean. What are you kidding. Well Douglas Mcnabb is an International Criminal defense lawyer we asked him how he believes the extradition proceedings will be handled i think its absolutely clear politics those coming. Election edition proceeding is not designed to be political. Politics absolutely positively should not come into why this should be treated as you know me. Proceeding where the u. S. Are seeking to have someone actually regarded from u. K. Or u. K. Or seeking their warrant extradited u. S. U. K. But i think its cruel ish for one to assume that the whole world now are coming to why in this particular matter well mike pompei one has also provoked outrage by announcing a reversal of a decades old stance on israeli settlements in the west bank he says they do not necessarily violate International Law the settlements are on territory occupied by israel since the 6th the 6 day war there are one or one of the most contentious issues in the conflict between israel and palestine the u. S. Administration has lost its credibility to play any future role in the Peace Process we regard washingtons decision as another step aimed at collapsing the system of International Law regulating the middle east and thus further straining Israeli Palestinian ties settlements in occupied palestine are a blatant violation of International Law and Un Security Council resolutions theyre an illegal action that will kill to say solution jordans position in condemning them is unwavering we warn against dangerous consequences of the us change of position on settlements on middle east peace plan all settlement activity is illegal under International Law and it erodes the viability of the 2 state solution and the prospects for a lasting peace. Well for 4 decades the us regarded the settlements as inconsistent with International Law and thats still the view of much of the International Community citing the 4th Geneva Convention washingtons change of stance contradicts numerous un resolutions and International Human rights conventions and its only the latest controversial move by the trumpet ministration concerning israel the white house recognized as race of rennet see over the Golan Heights that territory was seized from syria in 1900 67. 00 and formally at next in 1981 and washington has also broken with International Consensus by formally recognizing to resell them as israels capital but decisions were widely condemned including by the un when the us announced the Embassy Relocation violent protests erupted with Israeli Forces killing dozens of palestinians wheels political commentator i mean or and what the implications of the latest decision will be. Of course a very. Discriminating way of conducting diplomacy and the United States has chosen to act unilaterally disregarding the United Nations Security Council even its allies and the western allies do not see eye to eye with washington on this topic so obviously it will not be a precedent and do night that states will probably be isolated obviously this is going to please the right wing news row it is not going to change anything if at all it is going to give more strength to those extremists in the Palestinian Community who say that diplomacy is no garage for statehood and that they must act violently and therefore israelis should be against this policy announcement in order for it. Or u. S. Secretary of state might pompei or justified the decision saying it provides a space to find a political solution between the 2 sides however the us has issued a travel warning at the same time we asked people on the ground what they think. The usa zionist position is against ethics this is our homeland and our families so we will resist as our religion says if you dont Like Fighting for your lands you are a martyr and we will continue one of the difficult part against any decision which can steal our right to decide and our freedom and our dignity it is only to cover up the israeli crimes and propaganda against anyone opposing the building of settle. In our own or the decision of trying to consider the Israeli Zionist settlements on the houstonian lands illegal and legitimate is totally against International Law to take any occupied lands and give them to the Occupying Force today lost his role as a mediator in the Peace Process in the eyes of the palestinians by declaring in a direct way that the settlements are legal and legitimate. Dutch Authorities Say theyre found 25 people in a refrigerated container on board a cargo ferry bound for the u. K. The discovery was made after the ship had left the city of larding in the on tuesday evening and then returned to port and to the stowaways were taken to hospital the others are being held in Police Custody it comes less than a month after the bodies of 39. 00 bit means nationals were found in a lorry in the south east of england. Well in other news this hour the u. S. Secretary of state my pompei again has announced that washington will impose sanctions on irans a firdaus Nuclear Facility he also repeated his support for the ongoing protests in the country tear on his back by accusing us of stirring up on the west the United States will terminate the sanctions were related to the Nuclear Facility at fordo the people enjoy a Better Future when their government begins to respect. Basic human rights abandons its revolutionary. Posture and its destabilizing Foreign Policy in the region and behave simply like a normal nation but. It is strange that the United States and its officials who have committed the greatest of crimes by imposing much pressure on the toughest sanctions on iran are communicating to the iranian people that they support these protests we dont expect anything else from mr disgracefully defense the maximum pressure regime and imposition of sanctions on iran. Well the unrest to break out after a surprise 50 percent hike in fuel prices announced on friday mass anger boiled over in at least a dozen cities with buildings vandalized and pictures of irans supremely. To iran said the revenues would be used to help the less well off it all comes with the country in the grip of a deep economic crisis aggravated by tough u. S. Sanctions. And has more on that. The trumpet ministration seems jubilant about the recent protests in iran as i said to the people of iran almost a year and a half ago the United States is with you now the protests are being driven by the Economic Situation g. D. P. Growth projections are down by 9. 5 Percent Inflation is it 40 percent and unemployment is at 16 percent and rising but it was a 15 percent increase in the price of fuel that sparked the recent turmoil. Now an economic squeeze like that is bound to get people upset but why is iran in such poor shape well donald trump has a lot to do with it in 2015 and. National community agreed to lift decades old sanctions in response to an agreement that was reached about irans Peaceful Nuclear Energy Program but then along came donald trump he decided to pull out of the Nuclear Agreement he says that iran broke the spirit of the deal however International Observers say that iran fully complied as of today i can state that iran is implementing its. Commitments after pulling out of the deal the Trump Administration began imposing sanctions on iran intended to wreck their economy accusing iran of quote destabilizing activities around the region the usa even threatened to impose sanctions on other countries that dared to buy iranian oil anyone doing business with iran will not be doing business with the United States im asking for world peace nothing less. Weare ready to impose sanctions on any activity subject theres directions after the Iran Nuclear Deal in 2015 iran was exporting roughly 2500000. 00 barrels of oil per day now that number is down to roughly 200000 in a country where the economy is centered around state run oil exports thats a pretty big financial loss and it has been detrimental cuts in fuel subsidies and other benefits for the population had to be made so i dont know top arena fish use have sat down and made a decision for the country based on expert assessments and this decision must be executed. But according to donald trump working to economically ruin iran makes him the best friend of the iranian people nothing says i love you like bleeding someone dry as cool nations to support irans people as they struggle to reclaim. Their religious and rights is. Today i want to deliver a message to the long suffering people of iran. The people of america stand with you will be arrayed in people return to the nations proud roots as a center of civilization culture and wealth where their people can be happy and prosperous once again the United States throughout the reigning in history has always been against democracy i mean the United States was the country together with britain that instigated the 1000 the rule against democratically elected mohamed side there right now its no different i mean the United States has imposed a very severe sanctions on iran which is a lot of ordinary people so coming out and say that they support these people is hypocritical in the sense that if you do support these people then you wouldnt sanction them so hard that you know they are having difficulty getting on with their normal lives about with the latest from syria after this short break. World is. Shaped by. The day. Thinks. We dare to ask. Temperance to impeach and remove donald trump from the presidency have clearly divided the country this should not surprise anyone trump is probably the most divisive public figure of our time however all this division over a Single Person is changing and even damaging institutions is impeachment being normal. Israeli Defense Forces say theyve carried out a series of air strikes on syrian and Iranian Military targets in damascus unconfirmed reports from the syrian capital say that a family was killed in the attacks what youre seeing now are images of one of the explosions that rocked the ancient city according to syrian state media many of the missiles were intercepted by the countrys Defense Systems the incident comes a day after israel claimed 4 rockets had been fired from syria into the occupied Golan Heights. Well for a bit more analysis on this we can now cross live to alison drew bruno hes an analyst at gulf state and lipsticks our sandra lets start here why do you think israel carried out those airstrikes now whats triggered them. Yes there in fact the timing is very telling right now weve had a week of activity with missile exchanges and but he was a few days ago that israel killed islam and jihad member in the massacres and his son so but more importantly i think the timing of these attacks today coincide with the riots in iran and in fact the even the israelis are saying that the rockets were fired from iranian areas or from a very militias based in the in damascus so the as weve seen in iran part of the the writers have been complaining about irans Foreign Policy claim. Saying the government spent a lot of money on supporting hezbollah and syria instead of focusing on the economy at home. And. The events today. And i think this will continue for the next couple of weeks well put definitely take advantage of the weakness that the reigning authorities must be feeling right now they on the one hand they are forced to raise fuel prices by removing subsidies on the other they continue to have the Foreign Policy of supporting shia groups throughout the middle east and in. Maintaining their. Lets say prestige in the among these in this area which now extends from iraq syria and lebanon lets face it without iran. Many of these. Areas would have succumbed to civil wars and to in the case of the lebanon israeli invasions for example 2006 well that were seeing a. The moving parts in the region at the moment and a lot of factors that could be driving as you said as we already mentioned incident comes a day after israel claimed 4 rockets had been fired from syria into the occupied Golan Heights a do you think were going to see further retaliation either from syria or iran in response to what weve seen tonight yes we will but on the iranian side there are television is going to be more difficult to carry out because it will give fodder. At least the way i see it to the protesters in iran in. Iran is an extremely delicate position right now it has a few options with regard to removing the american sanctions nobody in europe is helping them out perhaps china can step in but they are in the middle of trade negotiations with the United States and so everything is a very delicate context and to force iran to i mean they have the rockets its not thats not the issue they could easily fire back but for every rocket they fire back israel can fire for and do it with more impunity given the pressure thats on their masters right now especially as. Syria is finally getting. The country is. 90 percent or 80 percent under the masses control after years of horrible war i dont even want to call it civil war. And its a very delicate time. To retaliate is easy what you do afterwards is not so nobody wants syria does not want a prolonged conflict with israel right now which any one extra rocket could cause. In fact in 2006. When israel invaded lebanon syria was very careful to state out of it in even though it gained from the prestige that hezbollah received in sustaining the israeli a tax this is a different. Sort the best that syria can do in this case is use its. Air defenses and shoot down the israeli rockets as best they can but it has few other options. For an extended retaliation and a sundry bruner analyst at gulf state analytics thanks as always for time and insights thank you. And other news the sad demonstration by a group called stop islam is ation of norway ended in a brawl when it was confronted by muslim counterprotest tensions flared when 2 copies of the koran were thrown in a rubbish bin and another one was set on fire by the organizations leader. A local media reports say the demonstrators also compared islam with fascism describing it as a religion of violence and insulting the Prophet Muhammad several arrests were made as police moved in. A local muslim union leader describe the whole incident as a hate crime and he promised to take legal action against the organization itself and its leader who burn the koran the instant provoked an International Reaction with turkey expressing its condemnation. We are deeply concerned about the recent rise of discrimination against muslims hatred against islam and attacks on mosques in western European Countries these attacks are not only aimed at muslims but also pose a threat to all humanity well the head of dialogue for Islamic Cultural Center athlon food and believes that the rhetorical of some norwegian politicians is even more dangerous than this kind of instant because it happens far more often but sometimes we get ringback stuck in blood in the soccer was more dangerous it was a politicians who were against muslims. Of the woods in society but is that the more dangerous that a couple of crazy people in christian outside i think the most important thing to count when it comes you know how do you hate speech is to talk to each other and create good examples are all muslims d that are muslims and look when we talk in our way and this is really important to us as muslims we dont talk about muslims and not muslims or dish and talk about us the reasons and they will slips what we talk about is just as. Everybodys part that they were us. While in neighboring sweden the countrys ruling party has lost out in popularity to antiestablishment opposition thats the findings of a new opinion poll for the 1st time in more than 100 years the social democrats are no longer the countrys most Popular Party the figures show the anti immigrant Sweden Democrats would have the support of 24 percent of voters if an election was held today compared to 22. 2 percent for the ruling party other parties trailed well behind the margin between the 2 has ever been narrowing since 2010 when the Sweden Democrats gained enough votes to Enter Parliament for the 1st time. Major breach the major reason cited for this trend is rising crime in the country which has seen citizens swing in favor of more right wing and nationalist groups Sweden Democrats favor tough immigration controls and increased security along with traditional family set ups it claimed sweden has become something of a hub for International Crime according to a separate survey swedish citizens have increasingly experienced lawlessness father and vandalism it says the numbers are of on the highest in europe and the ruling party concedes is bearing the brunt of public anger. Its a damn tough situation right now so im not surprised when he consider what weve got against us we gang murders shootings and explosions its us as the ruling party who has to pay the price. From the Sweden Democrats party believes a hard line against crime is something his country has been lacking we need to raise taxes to pay for all this immigration and of course affects ordinary people because they have to pay more taxes but its also a matter of of a cultural phenomenon will swedish people dont feel at home anymore in their own city or in their own country they walk outside and they think where did the big debate. Is this increasing Gang Violence that is almost exclusively immigrant related to regular order of people cant even walk in. Without fear or there is getting raped getting assaulted getting robbed thats the real risk to freedom and now we have a situation we need to address and one of those things is to be tough on crime which none of the other 7 parties have been or have been interested in. Being. Well thats your update for now im was on a low could not be back here with another round of the latest news info see minutes time see them. Seem wrong but. Just dont. Get to shape out just. How to get and in detroit because the trail. When so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. You know world big partisan movie lot and conspiracy its time to wake up to be deeper to hit the stories that made stream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door. And shouting past each other its target for Critical Thinking its time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for washington closely watching the hawks. Good food descriptions sound up the tasing even for the owners so how to choose the pet Food Industry is telling us what to feed our pets really more based on what they want to sell us then whats necessarily good for the pet turns out that food may not be a selfie people believe we have animals that have you know diabetes in arthritis they have auto immune disorders allergies we are actually creating these problems and its a huge of a democrat problems all of them i believe can be linked to very simple problem of diet and some dog owners so heartbreaking stories about their pets less treats the larger corporations are not very interested in proving or disproving the value of their food because theyre already making it a 1000000000. 00 on it and theres no reason to do that research. Hello and welcome across town for all things are considered im Peter Lavelle efforts to impeach and removed. From the presidency have clearly divided the country this should not surprise anyone trump is probably the most divisive public figure of our time however all this division over a Single Person is changing in even damaging institutions is impeachment being no
