Doctors that pleaded with the government to bring forward the. Coronavirus case. Those who have water cannon is deployed in israel where the publics frustrated with the governments response to the pandemic as well as a Corruption Scandal involving the Prime Minister. Hi there thanks for joining us this morning this is r. T. International. But speakin in the u. S. City of portland which has seen protesters against Police Brutality and racial inequality setting fire to the Police Association building trumps accuse local authorities of failing to contain the. Slum the president s decision to deploy federal agents in the city. Looks at the Bigger Picture surrounding the recent escalation. For 15 nights protests and riots have raged in the city of portland what began as a stand against racism is morphing into Something Else into wellness the scale version of the civil war except this time it is of the north against the south these top its the right versus the left. And for a certain someone currently in the white house had keen to stay there that could play right into his allegedly small hands over the past decade that american president s have fancied military jools wars to drum up support for reelection bush with iraq a bomber with libya but trump current caddy he campaigned promising to end foreign wars foreign wars so why not imitate one of whom wealth or terry in governments not democratic republic send unmocked of thirtys after protesters these trumped ban tactics designed to eliminate any accountability absolutely unacceptable in america and must stand the senator had a point this is like something out of iraq that again trump did threaten to use the military to stamp out these protests hes already used the national god. Trump has an election to win and Trumps Campaign plan doesnt seem to involve getting in his knees he will be hot he will be hosh thats what his vote is expect and the authorities in portland feel the trump has begun an invasion this is an attack on our democracy president has used our city as a staging ground to further his political agenda igniting his base to cause further divisiveness lets be clear this is not political theater this is far more dangerous than not we have officers on our streets further escalating tensions and causing harm to portlanders right now dog trump the president of the sec i mean the right has an exact he kept his plans a secret his speech had now and rushmore the one with military jets flying overhead that was almost a textbook declaration of war there is a new far left fascism that demands absolute allegiance if you do not speak its language perform its rituals reset its mantras and follow its commandments then you will be censored banished blacklists persecuted and punished its not going to happen to us. And as with any war you need a main bad guy so saddams dead gadhafi is gone bin ladens been well killed so what about that other fella what does they do biden. You want be secure bodes America Joe Biden would be nothing more than an auto pen president. The trojan horse for a radical agenda. So radical so all encompassing that it would transform this country. Into something totally out recognisable it is ironic isnt it that the country that prides itself on being the freest in the world the only country with absolute free speech they tell us all day every day how those same people cant stand free speech when its coming from someone they dont like both the right and the left are guilty of this theres no new give no understanding no compromise in either of them its either their way or go to hell or. The democratic bear in the us city of providence has promised that he will seek to right the wrongs of the past through a reparations process for minority communities the best says the process they may just step forwards it will see meetings held over historically contentious issues and a review of rules perceived to discriminate against black and indigenous communities however not everybody is in favor while acknowledging that the liberal left agenda has failed black in minority communities in contemporary times by forcing their children to attend failed schools and by enacting policies that make it easy to become dependent on the government it would be an unprecedented and immoral act of government to seek reparations for the horrible wrongs that were committed generations ago reparations were also approved in the u. S. City of asheville where money will be invested into poor black communities the authorities in both cities say the initiatives are just the beginning of wider changes. A lot of folks are going to jump straight to the reparations question how much what form for how long whos eligible those are all legitimate questions but theyre questions for another day and theyre questions that will be answered through the process its important to go step by step with this resolution is the 1st year in that it names that their list of. The. Weighted against the black community and it is very gay we discuss think controversy surrounding the reparations process with 3 service and author political analyst and also with antony bryan logan a political and social issues commentator. Just kind of the same thing they always do during elections or any other time or some kind of so far no rise to give promise is over going to do a study were going to figure it out i mean how is he not figured out yet slavery ended 865 to say year 2020 what are we really going to study what are they going to try to figure out is trying to calculate i mean you should know about now never has the government ever taken one step towards understanding and calculating and studying the effects and the impact of slavery on africanamerican people now it allows people like a. B. L. To come in and make statements oh its not necessary oh theres no need for this are going to do it right now whos going to pay for it are you go pay for a result of your own tax money how about me out of my own tax money because the government only makes money from us when there needed to be a 1200. 00 stimulus checks in doubt no one was saying oh well that comes from the taxpayer thats a refund we should do that now and so why is it that they could find money to come up with to pay 12. 00 trillions of dollars to come up with a payment for people who need food when and they couldnt come up with the same amount of money to restore African Americans in this country who they actually affirmatively took actions to harm thats ridiculous to me so i appreciate more who is they who is right now to be more then who is they does need to be more than lip service and right now at lanse asheville city is doing a resolution but heres the issue asheville needs to do more than a resolution they need to come up with an actual dollar figure of how much they wont black people were harmed by their actual city who knows how much money going to meet up because. The former owner of the Say Something like 14000000. 00 i mean where is it going to come from the value is money was bad enough its often about 6. 00 to again and the reason why that was gave reeses point is because the government say that we came out work and we can now go out here and make money the actual you know. Mechanism upon which the money will be delivered who do you see is not going to be defined nor will it ever be because all babies every day in 40. 00 pairs honey or so years they say we promise you do this we promise you day with no promises ever deliver you cant provide reparations by definition until you know what you need to repair there needs to be an assessment of what has been done what black people have suffered specifically and so thats why its not the solution it needs to be but we end we dont want organizations to keep or communities to start slapping reparations on top of every Community Redevelopment effort and calling it reparations if its not if it was going to happen it should have been bathed in 18 states identified as slave master in a slave fair transaction and now its only 20 it would be me pain it would be rescreened it makes no sense at all. The wording of facemask is now obligatory in all enclosed public spaces in france mosques were previously only compulsory on public transport and in some shops the rule came into force today initially it was to be introduced on the in august the french dont deserve the government to bring it in earlier. Starting this monday Wearing Masks will be mandatory in enclosed places as announced by Prime Minister john kass takes this includes shops public buildings covered markets banks protective measures and testing remain essential in tackling the virus effectively. Corresponds in parish explains the pros and cons of this new rule. Well whats really interesting is just a few months ago the french government was saying that masks were not essential in the fight against the transmission of 19 this was at a point when france didnt have mass to go to and they were saying only needed to wear a mask if you were somebody who had been 19 or you were a Health Care Professional and dealing with people but now its deemed that wearing a mask is in this central tool in the fight against transmission of course france has plenty of masks at the moment but some newspapers have been talking about the cost here of wearing a mask and wearing them every day one calculate the cost for a family of 4. 00 individuals who have both the children being over the age of 11 it was saying if you buy masks that you can walk again this would be a cost of around 96. 00 euros a month but if you decided to wear the single use masks that you discard after every use that would cost a family more like 228. 00 euros so quite a lot of money every month to find where those masks however this ruling has been welcomed by many. Lately ive been noticing a lot of people coming in without masks i dont want to be rude but the either see outside or they come in and i put their glasses on and then they go away but i dont actually get close at all so for me the mask is very important and its very good in this if necessary it should be put on what we protect others and we protect ourselves and then there you are its an effort that we all have to make so we do it. Fueling sometimes it has gone back to the weird was before people have kind of forgotten about it weve put in place a lot of procedures but its true that on the beach people feel much more at ease than in a restaurant but just like everywhere else not everyone is happy about this new. Lation some people have been complaining that wearing a mask means its quite difficult to communicate you cant see frankly gestures from people and the reality is that sometimes when somebodys speaking with a mask on they do sound a little bit muffled now public transport here in front its already been compulsory to wear the mask for many many weeks with the risk of fine already that but despite that despite the fact that there have been security agents going through the metro stations and train stations handing out fines many people have not been wearing a mask on public transport its a very emotive subject not just here in france but in other countries too but it seems the issue of wearing a mask or not wearing a mask will remain defiance if. Now a long term restrictions were 1st imposed globally many people found themselves stranded in a country away from these flights and trains comes along bus but it didnt stop one determined greek student from finding a route home. I remember i told my dad we were talking about the floods and how i was going to get home and he said theres a job you dont want and i said you know considering ive been considering coming back and he said do it i said no im serious if you if you support d me and if you can but ill do it and he said well ok lets look into it. Especially at the start. I was not very optimistic and even though the word time just right you know what this isnt so difficult. Most of my day was filled with stress and with glory and the only thing that i had to do to hold on to it was. To let me just finish this one day one more day thats only and then 2 more i can feel im going to finish just one day and then from there on i see it and day by day i kept doing. Thats what thats what kept me going even though i did not think i was going to finish the trip. Even though it was very difficult looking back on the i would 100 percent with it with the knowledge i have and i think its going to be even more fun. And next time i do it ill do it with the friends so i can share the whole experience of the trip. People in israel angry about how the government there is handling the pandemic as clashes and scuffles between police and demonstrators erupt in jerusalem up and get the full story and more after the break. The world is driven by dreamers shaped by one percent of those great. Dares thinks. We dare to ask. Anyone else seemed wrong well all just dont all. Get to shape out just being educated and engaged because the trail. When so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. Welcome back water cannon were unleashed in the streets of jerusalem at the weekend as police trying to disperse protests against the governments handling of the pandemic scuffles and clashes were also seen in tell a very 1st frustration with the current israeli Prime Minister fears of getting infected. To you. So why are people unhappy while the protesters can turn the governments handling of the Health Crisis in general and in particular the recent return of restrictions amid a spike in the infection rate they also say the Prime Minister and his cabinet are fail to manage the economic fallout of the pandemic now on top of their simmering anger over corruption charges the stand against Binyamin Netanyahu the premier is corruption trial will resume in january with witnesses testimonies hes standing accused of fraud spritz of trust and accepting bribes despite that looming trial the netanyahu himself says that hes focused on ending the covert crisis while we have a common goal to stop the spread of the coronavirus by various measures i remind ministers that by thursday i have requested each ministries plan for a safe exit from the coronavirus restrictions at least 28. 00 people were arrested as a result of the unrest in jerusalem and tel aviv political analyst michel barak and former advisor to the president s office jason perlow and shared with us their thoughts on the current tensions in israel. Everything was functioning and everything did seem under control until everything went back we celebrated too soon here and that and you know for all the good work that he did in the 1st wave really wasnt there this 2nd time around a large group of protesters are protesting that the Prime Minister is are up in the midst of a fraud trial and he should resign protesters that really are problematic for those that are out of work those that are from industries which are not picking up the Tourism Industry the Entertainment Industry there are people that are just out of work and economically are suffering so he needs to answer those people hes going to have to come out with one of our really economic plan that is going to put israel back to a Strong Economy as we move through different stages both politically because we had a new government sworn in and in terms of the pandemic itself with new numbers emerge theres been a sort of imbalance between those 2 things and theres a genuine feeling on the street that we could be doing things differently and we could be doing things better now we have a working government theres a stronger position on a stronger position will voice its checks and balances on the new Prime Minister and on his governments policies and thats expressed on the streets as well its pretty much part and parcel of the democratic debate around how to handle both the economic sides of the pandemic and the medical side as well. Its been more than 6 years since war erupted in Eastern Ukraine and despite a lack of Media Coverage these days it is still going on progovernment forces are still fighting rebels in the selfproclaimed republics of guns in donetsk and people are still dying on the battlefield but its not easy it is done of explains those killed are always ukrainian. A ukraine Army Soldier Dies in combat is called married grabs a squad of brothers in arms and ventures out on a recovery mission. With the evidence of a little. Too much and you can only refer them this video would become his last though and he key of rebel forces recovered the camera from the body of mccall in after his life was ended by a landmine. And unfortunate death unlucky even he wasnt shot in combat he wasnt even a target he simply ran at the wrong time in the wrong direction and too fast in his own demise but well soldiers die its just the gruesome nature of the ukrainian war zone the fighting between the state army and forces loyal to the selfproclaimed dinette republics has been going on for years yet this death caught the gaze of the United States i want to express you know since deep sadness at the reporter killing us to recreate a military medic who joined the people have you created condemning the ongoing prudent aggression of russia that forces in the us and pay tribute to ukrainians killed and wounded fighting for their democracy well pump got it all wrong because ellen was and is still me and citizen not a ukrainian he was also a mercenary and had a badge reading medic his commander straight out blyde claiming that he and his squad had been dressed in white vests and helmets the footage from ellens body can clearly shows they were indistinguishable from regular combatants heres a photo we got from the rebels its black and white and even to a color blind person the vest of the medic here is not white again. This green on green chevron was the only medic designation discovered on the body alongside munition a k. A rifle and a heap of grenades and according to a conversation allegedly found in his phone dylan didnt exactly come to ukraine to save lives he listened to me there is a herd of ukrainian pigs which need to be put in the stable there degenerates they do need a white master we will bring them to heal and then screw we weve got things to do blacks should be faced down it seems the only white thing about this medic was his racism but there could be more than simple lack of Research Behind pompei was condemnation of the killing the us secretary of state could be concerned of american guns for hire also fighting on the frontlines in ukraine in the same unit as the medic here is sean fuller a proud texan an iraq war veteran and ill in squad mate who even used to be presumed dead by the forces until verse video. Still alive here its virgil a 17th. Shaun fuller from texas syria hardened Damien Gonzalez from new york just in from florida these are just some photos discovered on the phone of this stone ian ukraines front line is apparently guarded by the foreign legion 2. 0 and the u. S. State department is known to do more than just track american mercs back in 2011 for instance its reach went so far beyond that it was on the verge of commanding a force made up of the likes of full and cold so no wonder really illinois death god on washingtons raiders so quickly and stirred such concern not because hes a medic but because an american might be next the strategic goal of the us military Industrial Complex is simply to create trouble for russia they certainly do know in general scully all im quite sure their International Connections to the people who are fighting in the ukraine and which well known really fear that is quite possible that people in the deep state in the us will engineer provocations so the Political Leadership will then force to take decisions which they perhaps dont really want just dont really want to change and thats not all because in wasnt some stray soldier of fortune and hickey of fighters discovered official Ukrainian Army papers on him this story and was even eligible for benefits from the Ukrainian Government as a thank you for his service after all guns arent hired for free and with american mercs officially enlisted in the Ukrainian Army the United States might expect some security guarantees from the commander in chief from self president vladimir selenski now its not just him and his friends in washington who know about foreign guns doing ukraines bidding in the war and both kiev and the us would want to keep ukraines own little foreign legion and become of large. Well following the death of the soldier a local ukrainian Prosecutors Office opened an investigation into potential premeditated murder the countrys foreign minister has promised that the death will not go unnoticed by ukraines International Partners and the u. S. Embassy in ukraine has responded by condemning the continuous brutal aggression by Russian Forces in the donbass and average about up to date appreciate company here on r. T.
