Thanks for joining us this hour wiki leaks has released a 4th batch of documents from the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons that cast further doubt on its report on allegations of a chemical attack in the syrian city city of duma last year they reveal the o. P. C. W. Chose to ignore evidence that contradicts its conclusion that the attack came from the air are just my gossip picks up the story talks ecologist pharmacologist and bio analytical chemist walk into the u. P. C. W u p c w shows them a video of an alleged chemical attack and ask them what sort of symptoms they see could they tell what gas it was the specialist look at the video and agree on one and the rest is classified or was classified. It was agreed among all present that the key takeaway message from the meeting was that the symptoms observed were inconsistent with exposure to chlorine and no other obvious candidate chemical causing the symptoms could be identified another day another leak another embarrassment and another blow to the u. P. C. W. s credibility they knew they knew the rebel video was questionable didnt find any nerve agent any chlorine in quantities sufficient to indicate a chemical attack nothing but they wouldnt admit it we know of at least one person at the u. P. C. W. s very selective about what gets saved and what gets deleted please get this document out of documents registry archives and please remove all traces of its deliberate storage with documents registry archives that was from sebastian brar frances representative to the u. P. C. W in that email he demands the deletion of a Technical Report which concluded that the gas canisters most likely were dropped from the air by acids aircraft but placed at the scene obviously placed by someone staged. Theyve tried not just to exclude certain from asian but beriah completely expunged from their own all call it. That is not there is not a Scientific Method is it people dont just bury or delete and actually delete all traces of a report that is that the smoking gun of a cover up and now we see the capture and the politicization of the a. B. C. W. Whats really encouraging though is we have people within the organization all willing to try and get the truth. Is out of it steps here in terms of p. R. And diplomacy in the past theyve been a quiet organization remember theyve won the nobel prize professionally getting on with their work but they appear to have been subverted and led astray if you like and theyre going into this Uncharted Waters where now i think from a p. R. Perspective theyre finding it difficult to cope and in the past if the past 3 leaks because this is a 4th leak now of documents if the past 3 leaks are guide they were. Down and be in denial as indeed is the whole pretty much of the western especially u. S. U. K. Media in not actually investigating your knowledge and the truth that is now actually seeming to be emerging theres not enough time to run through everything that the u. P. C. W. Edited out every corner they cut every piece of evidence they twisted to make asaad look guilty and like excluding all but one of their investigators who went to syria for writing the report theyre leading contradictory witness testimony classifying and keeping secret victims toxicology reports bringing in american intelligence agents to lecture chemists 2 dozen employees suspected unprofessionalism fraud or even foul play according to leaked emails but the boss he stuck to his guns werent some of these. New. Discussed by the side. You know disagrees with him the 1st director general of the o. P. C. W. Who has cosigned an open letter calling on the organization to let people who theyve gagged speak out with every week the story gets bigger more scandalous which may not be the impression you get on t. V. Or in the big big has its all obesity w defends its report and hits back at whistleblowers many of the people writing these are theyre scared theres only so much that theyre allowed to write many editors and many journalists arent even aware of the propaganda so what will take place is theyll be told. Oh no this is this is all just rubbish look at the spelling counts a call and maybe some are aware that they are they are dubious and theyre not to be trusted i think theres probably too much risk involved in shouldnt listen we we shouldnt be trusting them they want to show that took place at a news event in takes place of Many Organizations where you go at it is you know possibly senior reporters where you know they go and work in these think tank release you know that cultivating relationships with Us State Department officials or heads of different political organizations and i think what not stars do is. You know it becomes a conflict of interest this is the new p. C. W. It is no longer about 5 didnt the truth establishments what happened molecule by molecule now it big switch molecule to show in which to hide now the u. P. C. W. Synthesisers chemical guilt literally out of thin air. Weve asked the o. P. C. W. To confirm whether or not the latest revelations are indeed true of us how far they have not responded. Yellow best demonstrators have gathered in paris for a 59th weekend of protests and they have joined forces with those condemning the government pension reform plans trouble to escape reports well its the 59th week of protests by the jle asia owns out every saturday to show their discontentment with the french government and what they see as being policies for the rich or the gates the poor theyve also been joined by protest of those i came to the Pension Reforms at the moment in frogs these the reforms that the french government is trying to put through some reforms that would see some food chichi different pension systems joining down into one universal system so to give you a sense of the crimes that weve got hey you might be able to see i simply ghanas and this protest crowd heading back towards god to norwich is about a kilometer away they are in fact also in front of us as well so far this is being a generally come to a just because you can see there is a sense of tension here we have already seen tear gas being deployed by the police in a bit to try and control the protest as they seem to be some sort of a verb to quitman i mean the police the protesters before the police threw in some to gas grenades trying to space those crowds now we also know that this comes amidst what is now a public transport strike that is being aimed to its a week full weeks of transport in paris not completely its a standstill but very close to being so and this now is the longest public street that sports right in front since 1995 the shows the strength of in fact those who work for the public transport when. This town that theyve been able to raise Something Like over a 1000000 euros to try and pay for those who will to remain no the strike as to where they can do that at the same time is obviously being able to feed their families you get a sense of just how sick this crowd is now here in paris and the people how happy they are about so many different elements here in fronts this isnt just about public transport we have seen strikes from teachers from firefighters from the police even though we heard in the last 24 hours the ovo 1000 doctors in france have given this their resignation from their administrative positions these are administrative positions within hospitals often work they did for free and they resign from these posts in protest the what they see is a huge underfunding of french hospitals they say that the whole system is close to collapse of the urge the government to give them more money they say whats being offered by the government hasnt been enough and theyre now taking this extraordinary action to try and get some there from the government you may have to here it seems like its a bit of a party right now theyre all singing together at this is a very serious protest 59 weeks the alabaster and of course joined now by those protests against the Pension Reforms here in front. A lawsuit has been filed in the u. S. Against military contractors who allegedly Pay Protection money to the taliban in afghanistan help often has more. Ever since 911 the u. S. Government has been working to criminalize prosecute and sanction those who Fund Terrorism however theres a recent lawsuit that seems to hit pretty close to home a new lawsuit alleges that some u. S. Companies operating in afghanistan contracting with the u. S. Military have been paying out large amounts of protection cash to the taliban now the lawsuit is filed on behalf of those who have lost relatives in afghanistan this is how the lawyer representing those family members explained the legal action. The antiterrorism arent complaint alleges that 8 launch multinational corporations most of which are american regularly paid protection payments to the taleban including conny network which was designed to boost the companys profits by redirects and fines way from the room business interests we believe plaintiffs boule consequences and the scale of the payouts was quite staggering between 20 and 40 percent of all funds for Major Projects in afghanistan and up lining the pockets of insurgents now 2 of the firms that are named in the papers the da i global and Louis Berger Group they received roughly 1000000000. 00 in Development Aid between 20072009 now one of the Companies Named in the case says its very proud of the work that it did in afghanistan a spokesman for black and veatch said hes competed from a direct use of u. S. Government agencies and was proud of his projects in afghanistan earlier this Month Congress released a report regarding the war in afghanistan in which u. S. Military officials revealed some hard truths about the u. S. Campaign. What are we trying to do here we didnt have the foggiest notion of what we were undertaking there is a fundamental gap of funder standing in the front and over stated objectives and over lines in the military and the lack of funds or standing of the resources necessary so this latest case adds to the overall picture of billions wasted and pointless loss of life in what has been the longest war that the United States has ever waged weve asked the companys name to the lawsuit and the u. S. State department to comment on the story of us how far they have not gotten back to us meanwhile iraq war veteran sergio told us the Case Highlights the deep flaws in u. S. Policy in afghanistan. In order to make money for Contracting Companies that dont care they will they will bid the contract theyll take the contract and then on the ground once you get the money then you figure out how you go about it afghan war papers i think they they say things pretty clearly number one there was no mission we have not control the country at all so the taleban and alqaeda and whoever else is in their Islamic State which is actually a minority basically the finding and the money gets funneled down that way this is where the issue goes back to actually going back to the perpetrators of the war and the conflict and not just you can blame contractors for a lot of things for sure but theyre also they get these contracts and they they get to operate. Libyas internationally recognized government has officially requested military assistance from turkey as it attempts to stave off an offensive by the warlord Khalifa Haftar the turkish president has said that lawmakers will decide in early january whether or not to deploy troops to the war torn country.

Trump spoke with president. Egypt regarding wed be at the leaders rejected for an exploitation agreed that part is must take urgent steps to resolve the conflict before leiby and sluice control to for an act. Mark almond the director of the Crisis Research institute told us why he believes turkey is poised to intervene in the libyan conflict. Libya in some ways as a proxy conflict between these rivals for domination in the middle east but also turkey not only has problems with these allies to the west like egypt and the saudis in the m. R. I. Tuesday. In libya it also has problems with some of its nato allies greece and france in particular turkey in a sense is saying youve rejected us we can show that we can be rolled or could to you so libya in some ways is a kind of conflict where there are also some local reasons why after on the trip the Government Back each other through the capital government in east face the problem it controls the oil and gas but if you want to buy it you have to pay the money into tripoli thank you so long as the tripoli government controls the International Bank account of libya it may not control much territory but it does as it were control the cash but these outside forces will nominally allied to each other are also at each others throats struggling for influence over after all a very loyal and gas rich country.

Welcome back to the program this christmas a group of young muslims in london may presents for children and hospitals and from less well off families its all part of a drive to improve cultural links between communities is alie has a story. 1st worst its a time of families coming together and people putting their feet up and relaxing for just a few days however it can also be a tough time of the year for many in the u. K. Both personally and financially and for that reason many people here are also trying to make an effort to help their fellow citizens in this festive period one such Initiative Also seeks to strengthen ties between culturally different communities we thought why should anyone in christmas especially children be deprived of this festive feeling so by providing them with the gifts we can try and.

One local priest is enthused by the message of unity that this event sends and i think its just. Call of the muslims the time they respond to with compassion and with. And for me thats an important issue that if those are the qualities of god then you try and replicate those qualities of god so to see this is just wonderful news in that there are some people for whom. Compassion mercy general beneficence all these things. Are important it is a time of rising tensions. In the walled in hate crime on the rise its also important to show that those issues dont represent the whole picture beside the altie london. A transgender physics teacher in the u. K. Could be kicked off a Union Committee over alleged transphobia to hate and faces a barrage of criticism after wearing a top that said trans women are meant. To respect her own gender less than the rest of us respect her gender pathetically confused person. The sooner your idiocy and discriminatory behavior is closed down or youll continue to be known platforms the better whats a clown. How do you wheres the trans flak on your profile and see such transformed scenes get educated hayden wore the t. Shirt back in july at an event organized by the Campaign Group called fair play for women profit didnt go down well with some who complained to the general secretary of the committee she is part of they said she was propagating hate speech against the Trans Community it and could now face disciplinary action and lose her seat on the trade Union Congress committee hate him though is sticking her to her view that trans people are biologically attached to the sex they are born as we spoke to trans advocate jordan evans who says haydens views are too controversial for some in the community. I do agree with debbie on a number of things but we dont see eye to eye on everything in regards to this its why any activist does what they do is to send a message and in debbies case she wanted to send a message that trans women do often tend to have x. Y. Chromosomes myself included and it is a message that tends to be very controversial in trance or to actually in my opinion a greater issue with cancel culture as a whole this is something that we need to have a conversation about not just as a community but as a collective demographic as a generation because there is no end to cancell culture right now there is no. Time for redemption no opportunity to actually. From what youve done you have done something wrong and now you must be punished if this goes through and she is severely punished for saying what she has done in the trance monikers a very important part of who i am its a very important part of my journey im a woman with x. Y. Chromosomes most of the time they tend to exists on social media circles and they have their own following they lash out at people like debbie because they see her approach and they react accordingly they dont resemble people you necessarily see on social media but there are definitely people who exist solely to keep us down.
