Appalling humanitarian disasters. Joining us this is r. T. Internet. The pentagon insists that it. To washingtons own watchdog for afghan reconstruction accuse the military leadership of routine law of the progress of americas longest war. And has details common cynicism aside most people would prefer that those responsible for leading the country tell the truth and this is most especially true when it comes to situations like war where the lives of the men and women in the armed forces are on the line well according to the special inspector for afghan reconstruction the pentagon has been lying for years the problem is theres a disincentive for. Really to tell the truth we have created an incentive to almost require or for people to la theres an odor of mendacity throughout the afghanistan issue and i know congressman connelly has heard me talk about this years ago mendacity and who bruce now the department of defense was quick to chime in and dispute this congressional testimony here is the response the idea that there was some efforts to hide the truth the reality on the ground just doesnt hold water this idea that they were somehow missed statements i dont think that really joes it has been roughly a month since the Washington Post published the afghanistan papers this is a trove of documents from the office of the special Inspector General showing a sensually among many revelations that the efforts of the usa against the taliban have been completely ineffective americas top military brass were clueless about afghanistan and had no real understanding of what was happening on the ground and no real strategy this is how one of the top military generals under the administrations of both bush and obama explained it would trying to do here we didnt have the full goose newsham that would ruin the taking the fundamental get up and distancing of the front and the stated objectives. In the military and the lack of understanding of the resources necessary internally the pentagon knew that the situation was bleak however that is not what was told to the u. S. Public for years americans have gotten a steady stream of information claiming that there was progress being made in afghanistan we helped liberate an oppressed people. And we will continue helping them secure their country rebuild their society and educate all their children boys and girls. That i set to defeat al qaeda and tonight. The chance to rebuild is within reach and were doing a tremendous job. And as you know a big part of the job is. Certainly the biggest and we. Got it down very low numbers wise lies and more lives the usa has been in afghanistan for 17 years now making it the longest military engagement in all of us history and despite the new revelations showing how bleak the situation is and that deception was part of the modus operandi for the pentagon it seems like top voices in washington still dont have an exit strategy. R. T. New york. Exposed to lucy watchdogs revelations come as no surprise weve been told so many times by now i am here on set with meryl byrne that were there everything is going to get better and you cant stand that weve actually done in a circle. And explains a lot of people who are. In the form of the stage here we know responsible who work. For progressives in their areas theyre they dont want to jeopardize their career for 3 years its not one will and were not in progress i think it is definitely time for the United States to remove its troops weve been there 80 years so we have killed over a 150000 afghans some of whom are colophon some of whom are you know various militia groups but the main 3 majority are afghan civilians who only want peace here and there for great something they really here. The Inspector General is speaking out after documents he tried to keep secret were leaked those were the leaked after year after year after year of these same nonsense being repeated so its possible for these things to build and steamrolled but the United States has a has a president who campaigned on ending this war and is that out repeating the tired old lies that hes about to win it in a day which are not unique to this war they may come with every war every occupation and theres not even been a requirement that a victory be defiant nobody has any idea what it would be a victory is to continue losing for another year. A Russian Program or a rested on washingtons request forms authorities are resorting to torture in an effort to break alexander vinick is being held in greece on u. S. Cybercrime the Money Laundering challenges hes now written a plea for help theyre trying to use torture and psychological pressure to bring. Me they do not allow me to breathe fresh air the last time they let me out for a walk for a few minutes was on new years eve im a man without rights illegally imprisoned in greece for 30 months without charges they want to destroy me for my knowledge they want my head on a block just because of what i know and my technological abilities the case of alexander vinick is a case of blatant violations of human rights its an International Disgrace this man is been imprisoned for 13 months without a charge in greece hes not being prosecuted in greece without a sanction without a penalty without a trial alexander is not a criminal alexander is someone who has extremely high skills technological skills in blocked Chain Technology he has not targeted for any kind of criminal behavior because its very clear that what he has done is not criminal however what he has done is very very annoying to those who wish to control the economic. Exchanges of the people what is worse is that during the last days the conditions of detention of alexander didnt make amount to cruel and inhuman treatment which is a form of torture as we all know alexander is being denied the right to go outside his. Hospital room hes been hospitalized during the last 12 months more than 12 months actually and today his mother who came to visit him from russia was the 9 the right to see her son. When it was arrested in 2017 the u. S. Accuses him of laundering billions of dollars through a Digital Currency exchange is also want to buy fronts which claims. When it carried out cyber fraud from his prison cell russia wants to question him as well athens as already approved his extradition to all 3 of those countries however russias acting foreign minister has criticized procedures one in greece has completely failed to examine the evidence presented by moscow another lawyer for the nic to start off told us why he should be extradited to russia. Yes of but elated over the cheer greece has not only decided to extradite alexander simultaneously to 3 countries but has also specified the order by which alexander should go to these countries the point is that the extradition of alexander to the United States cannot be fair as he has never been there and hasnt committed the crimes that the usa attributes to him work with new technologies cannot be a crime especially if at the time of the activity the legislation regulating these actions simply did not exist. Concerning france they used only american evidence and investigators have never concealed it but today we know that france is not going to conduct any prosecution against him on its territory so the decision about the extradition of alexander vinick to france and then to the United States is purely technical the socalled greek trick is this to send him to france where hes going to be rejected and then sent him to the usa. The best ending for both alexander vinick and for every other party to this case will be of course his extradition to russia because russia is the place of the alleged crimes and because russia has all the information it is capable of creating a joint inquiry commissions for conducting an investigation in any field. Ok this is the scene right now in paris where hundreds of people have gathered for the latest protest against the governments pension reform plans in some parts of the french capital clashes have erupted between police and on the street. I was. A strike by public transport workers brought calles to the french capital for almost 2 months now despite the governments promise to compromise and bring to drop some of the most controversial aspects of its reforms. French parliament is due to debate the pension bill next month. And on friday night the french president was rushed out of a paris theater amid a hail of boos furious protesters chanting bankroll resign tried to confront him some demonstrators got past the police and entered the hall to deliver the angry message. Was. I was i. I i. I purchased followed michaels motorcades it had speed away the president was reportedly with his wife but he gets in a black car in the middle of the group of vehicles journalists and political activists who have managed to film in the theater audience just in front of him who was reportedly arrested for doing so his arrest the spot outrage. Under protest as in the french capital but the entrance to the iconic Louvre Museum people of joy and union calls to demand a complete withdrawal of my funds proposals that there are mixed public feelings about. The talk among the filmmaker to you im happy that theyre defending culture i left at 7 in the morning from additional on where im from to see the an artist even checks a patient but its not a big deal because if they do not strike their want to really be alone for as we know it so i dont mind the strike im actually happy i support them. If someone would lend manta im ready to break through the picket line because this situation is unacceptable i dont care about their pension issues restoring these their uniting and supporting each other reinforcing each other so thats why im here please also call we are against it they should not be here picked in for an hour to strike to express their opinion very good but to piss off everyone all day long who comes to visit comes from far away thats shameful while. We understand the anger of the visitors but this anger should be directed at the government who wants to force its pension reform project through were not the ones that are standing in the way were not blocking the public Cultural Service on the contrary were fighting for a strong public Cultural Service where you look at the support of the population of the strikers were very surprised to see the government maintains its position is of extremism that is unacceptable for democrats like me who voted for manual macro in the 2nd round of the president ial election against. Exactly 77 years ago the where the army broke the nazi siege of leningrad for the blockade being fully lifted a year later the vast majority of victims in the city died not from bombing but for. Hunger and hypothermia on the grounds they may have changed thing petersburg but the horrific memories still run. Was was. Just was very it was over me and my friend went to a store with food stamps there was a huge field and suddenly we saw a plane it dropped a bomb we were told that if we see a bomb flying towards us you have to run in the direction of the bomb because that way itll pass over you but we ran away we got away and kept walking suddenly i realized id left her behind she walked towards a fence i came up to check on her realized she was hanging on the fence already dead my friend what could i do i was barely alive myself some people helped me carry her home a good thing we werent too far away from home because were. Tied up with her and you know when my father died of hunger and we were going to bury him the weather was extremely cold it was about minus 36 or 38 degrees we owed thanks to our neighbor who constructed the casket for him and helped us to carry my father to the cemetery and the cemetery there was a chapel next to the chapel there was a pile of dead bodies higher than the chapel itself and every time i come to that place i still can see this pile of dead bodies in my head i still have this picture in my head. Was. Already after i buried my father i signed up as a nurse in the military Field Hospital once in january i came home from the hospital and my mother was lying on the bed hall for life but she said to me zoya i think im about to pass away. I bought meat patties at the market and i think theyre made out of human dont leave the girls alone dont marry too young and dont cut your hair short after an hour she died. At the. Shoe theyre going out they always said the russians will win our pilot course was shot down i remember they carried him in sheets she was all brown his skin was brown from bruising and we prepared a warm bath for him with medicine they know it him into it and he exclaimed please save me i have to keep flying i have to keep fighting.

Much know followed by sirens were broadcast on 1500 speakers cross leningrad slowly beats them and retreat. German bombers were on the way and became a symbol of resistance to the nazi a right and resistance to terms to stall people to death for National Reports from the northern capital. Leningrad knowing todays St Petersburg was a main strategic targets for nazi germany and the fates they prepared for this beautiful city was still laid to waste by bohrman 8 and also starred in its almost 3000000 population to death the horror of the siege was how death became routine when you walk down the street and then you remember it or rather try to forget you come across dead bodies carried on sledders all the time or dead bodies lying on the streets and at some point those a law they simply stopped paying any attention to these horrific sights the appearance review and i remember the 1st time i saw a corpse on the street wrapped in some rags at 1st it was scary but then people got used to it and just walked by i can see the bodies were just randomly dumped in the streets eventually they took them away for the. Kids their childhood was stolen by a merciless war gongs and hunger there was already too much for them there was something maybe even more terrifying as lack of food became too dramatic children as well as many adults often became a target not for enough to germany for hungry people so. The worst thing was the hunger it was unimaginable at the factory they gave us just 200 grams of bread it was made from strange ingredients some a drop in the cabbage others burnt sugar i dont know how i survived i think god saved my life. People saw gold but even thats all good and very good anymore the water supply system froze and killed lots of people hungry people freezing people they now became thirsty people searching for walked everywhere including sewerage system. We went to get water on food with sledges it was very cold there was a severe frost the river had frozen over but there was a hole and people were queuing to get water to drink people still wonder how we didnt die drinking this water to citizens during delivery shelling this side of the street is the most dangerous says this sign one of many similar across the city these warnings became a symbol of things are faced by residents during the siege and still today they stay as silent reminders of those terrible day.
