A socalled truth serum prisoners who had resisted other enhanced interrogation techniques also ahead. Really warplanes only. Strikes. In response to. Being. Played. With the top stories from the week was on right up to the minutes developments as well a very warm welcome to the weekly my names you know. It was a tense week for the british Prime Minister treason me she fought to whether or brags it storm marked by cabinet resignations and growing calls for a vote of no confidence the Party Meltdown happened after she unveiled her e. U. Divorce draft plans on threatening it would be her deal or no deal. The choice before us is clear this deal all leave with no deal only or no bricks it. Will within hours of revealing our draft braggs a plan to last sensibly to secure its full backing to members or probably quit including the brakes it secretary that was just the start in total Seven Members of trees amaze government resigned she also had to face a three hour mauling by an peeves does the Prime Ministers still intend to put a false choice to parliament between her a botched jail or no jail she and the labor party have only one intention that is to frustrate the trade. You are not delivering the brakes people voted for and today you will lose the support of many conservative m. P. Im only owns of voters across the country we can choose to leave with no deal we can risk no breaks it is all we can. I. Or we can choose to unite and support the best deal that can be negotiated this deal Prime Minister comes before us today trying to sell us a deal that is already dead in the water the reason why the people of this country are so fed up hes because theyve been made so many promises none of which have been delivered on because they calm be delivered to them yes difficult and sometimes uncomfortable decisions have had to be made i understand fully that there is some who are unhappy with those compromises but this deal delivers what people voted for and it is in the national interest. And we can only secure it if we unite behind the agreement reached in cabinet yesterday its very hard to see her staying perhaps even beyond the weekend its been a series of cabinet resignations government minister resignations parliamentary private secretary resignations even the vice chairman of the conservative party itself has resigned saw its very hard to see how someone who is dug in behind bricks deal which seems to be almost friendless this is that failure is an orphan and success has a thousand parents world this deal look very much like an orphan to me today shes come up with this Withdrawal Agreement and nobody wants it doesnt satisfy the remain as you dont want to leave anyway and it doesnt satisfy the leavers because under it we dont really leave so no ones going to be happy about this i dont believe she can get it through parliament and of course it also has to come through the European Parliament ukip any piece will vote against it i think other groups will vote against it here so id be surprised if it actually got through this parliament either people are deserted the tory party ive seen on twitter people tearing up their cards and taking photographs so this deal doesnt actually satisfy any body while analyst draw me in and around parliament this week during me breaks that mill stream in arties online series in case you missed it polly boyko ticks are now turning to look at vents westminster. But there was something quick on the ground video if you read it because i have the. Chaos in westminster as the cradle of Britains Parliament free democracy tries to get to grips with something to do with rights it. Now this time the thing to do with drugs it is very serious and we know this because important ministers to do with greggs it which they should all be including someone in charge of greggs it was actually a display of confidence in himself. That it was. Illegal to look at anyone even when they sleep with them. Looking. For music is to blame and how that works if. Youve got a. Plan that nobody will believe the backstop is. Basically a good group of children. To go to given the e. U. A backstop. For the sugar bowl over seven eight eight seven. There are five hundred pages of something to do with brags that britains elected representatives are all hearing inside this graphic masterpiece. The material is a bit strange. That. These guys. Have of course tending to know all about it in fact theyre talking about whats happening in that were not watching it its fair to say that right now. Everyones talking about it without having read it a little bit like the bible of. War and peace. Hes a whats the back story oh im not sure. Whats the mike stone. Excuse me whats not an either. Or what is it you can only really think of my job to ask the questions. And maybe its the right time just to recap what the park stop actually is its to prevent a hard border between the republic of ireland and northern art and you can read more about it on r. T. Dot com. Now newly declassified documents reveal the cia program to develop a socalled truth serum it involves drugging prisoners who are able to withstand other in terror techniques project medication was of previously undisclosed element of this program in which in addition to the physical and psychological torture that the cia was engaged in several doctors decided to try to figure out whether they could also find some kind of truth serum that they would use against peoples will to inject them with and make them talk you know a lot of questions being raised over this. More not all not cia Interrogation Program on the deed out of all. It wasnt an isolated case or to an accident or oversight was government sanctioned systematic or that there were manuals instructions on how to inflict pain thats not a secret in the immediate aftermath of nine eleven we tortured some folks see torture isnt only frowned upon because its evil vile its also ineffective problem number one imagine the cias surprise when those people that they were putting through hell resisted grew used to it enhanced interrogation techniques were begun within six hours these progress from attention flaps and walling to confinement in both large about five hours and small about one hour book says and friendly to the waterboard amazingly resistant to waterboard what happened was that the victims and this is problem number two adapted to suffering cias own words the prisoners began to see certain torture procedures as escape a break from other harsher measures what a conundrum here having slapped beaten confined and water boarded these people they were getting results so they opted for something new Something Like a truth serum problem was and this is problem number three seriously illegal there were at least two legal obstacles approved bush and his medical experimentation on prisoners and a ban on interrogation or use of mind altering drugs the question became moot since the Legal Department did not want to raise another issue with the department of justice problem number four revulsion cia tortures according to the torturers themselves the doctors others who were present were horrendous to watch the whole. Experienced responsible medical officer did was visually and psychologically very uncomfortable for all those witnessing it the problem was so widespread and so serious that employees had to be counseled and then checked to make sure they were still all right in the head after everything they had seen and done and they began only hiring people who had a stomach for torture let me be clear on what the cia doctors role was here when the cia tortures were torturing a prisoner for example by bought by waterboarding him say doctors would medically resuscitate the prisoner when he would become unconscious from too much torture what they did was allow the cia to continue torturing people over and over problem number five a lot of problems here journalists activists and juice they kept prime kept sniffing around digging up details and publicizing everything over the government the cia they resisted see for example how the document that revealed all of these looked initially when released under the freedom of information act in two thousand and sixteen not a lot of information in it its almost like two fingers to the press sometimes these Court Battles took years but they got it out eventually. Ancient history you might say we knew most of this plus it happened in the early two thousand lessons have been learned and this torture will never happen again. You think they said what do you think about waterboarding i said i like it a lot dont think its tough enough. It seems the promos between donald trump and among you all in my craw is hitting the skids after the us president and his french counterpart on twitter on choose day theyd had an orc would meeting in paris during commemorations marking the centenary of the First World War armistice from turned on mccrone over his intentions to create a europe wide army. But it was germany in world wars one and two how did that work out for france. They was starting to learn german in paris before the us came along pay for nato or no. Funds makes it very hard for the us to sell its wines into france and challenges big tariffs not fat must change the problem is that emanuel suffers from a very low Approval Rating in france twenty six percent and an Unemployment Rate of almost ten percent. Make france great to get. One petition out but is it will we need a europe you can defend it so long moreover without depending only on the us in a way that exhibits greater sovereignty. And we are. Losing you. Prefer. Well as well as taunting the french president on twitter donald trump also threatened a whining war he claimed americas wines are just as good as in bordeaux and the rest although that left a sour taste for many in front so we put the temples to the test and part us. The road full sail rolls live on their own will. To get through this resident little city where real skill. If you dont you know it is awful really the whole thing coming. For coming on october and say our little group. Would close down a big. Absolute most of it a little more where theres no dizziness dont get very much but out of it. And then he got. A little bit of all. In the only girl. In the circle but the bank would sit with it so the verdict is in kind of squishy clear parisians preferred the wine from making us all her well maybe for once the dont rule has been vindicated as the wind from his country seems to have trumped that from france so on this occasion from paris we admit defeat but nevertheless we will always weighs a gloss and say so and say. Otty paris a little bit of the prison streets one more of this weeks stories on the exchange of fire between israel and militants in gaza hundreds of strikes from both sides on ukraines far right Party Summer Camp where children are taught to kill weve got more coming up in under ninety seconds. So what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have its crazy. Let it be an arms race. Here in Dramatic Development only closely. I dont see how well be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. Or didnt talk and this is the phrase that has become a montra for many people but as more and more people get involved in visualizing the world around them is the story we tell ourselves about selves changing. I dont think the democrats very much moved in the negotiation with the republicans or president so i think people are going to have to acknowledge that the United States over the next couple years is going to be consumed even more so by are internal. Affairs and. Hello again on monday is really fighter jets struck palestinian targets militants in gaza launch rockets mortar shells it appears to be the most intense escalation of hostilities in the region since twenty fourteen at least seven palestinians one is really were killed many more were wounded. But. I. Was. Well the scenes are from the start of the week and then on wednesday here Israeli Defense minister of the door lieberman quit in protest at a cease fire which he described as a capitulation to terror the u. N. Security council held an emergency meeting on the conflict the day before in which they is really representative on palestinian observer where at loggerheads. Council must only condemn hamas we condemn in the strongest possible terms this aggression by israel there is no such a thing both sides. But thats in the fire but result of the splog aid which is immoral and illegal and it is inhumane and we will continue to take any measures measures necessary to put the people this round of violence was created as a result of a botched. Does that are really military operation in the gaza strip its very interesting for me to hear the israeli ambassador speak about the gaza a collision all of the victims except one of this round of escalation where palestinian all of the victims were inside gaza and not outside of the gaza strip israel bombed a t. V. Station it bombed residential buildings it leveled them to the ground those are acts that are acts of terror because they did terrorize two million palestinians the latest round of escalation started because of a botched Israeli Undercover operation three kilometers deep inside gaza thats how the escalation started with the Israeli Forces killing seven palestinians. Look at you know the story was generated well its a lot of interest this week ukraines far right Freedom Party has organized the children summer camp although to some it might seem like more of a boot camp journalist from the Associated Press news agency visited the site where youngsters live under strict rules on learn how to be combat ready to train go reports. Now thats what i call a legit summer camp. Oh you know about Early Morning wakeup calls. Oh yes right by our. Chance that kids will remember for the rest of their lives. Was catching march. Welcome to the temper of will summer camp and western ukraine its pretty much a boot camp hidden in the forest the people who set it up are from the National Socialist svoboda or Freedom Party so who can get enrolled officially its for teens but a. P. Journalists who went there say they saw children as young as eight here theyre being taught how to kill did just what is good you know they can still live then it seems limitless new coal then out of system but it used to know what i was. Supposed to call fun things when one of them only two of his more sleep but not only do they get to learn how to take down those who adults are calling russian invaders the kids are also taught to stand up to what the instructors see as degrading trends in the west see that it. Is. You should make use of the. Cell of what if you will feel. So out of the. West that was. What may seem as an ugly display of far right shaw the brainwashing appears to get full support from the local administration well earlier this year kiev splashed some of its bug. Youth projects the goal is to prop up what they call a National Patriotic education some of these projects are run by the stream far right. Even the nato backed Atlantic Council think tank tried to raise international wariness with this article and indeed we didnt write that Amnesty Internationals pointing out the issues more than just critical ukraine is sinking into a kill sort of uncontrolled violence posed by radical groups and the total impunity critically no one in the country can feel safe under these conditions and if youre wondering if any of this could actually spill beyond ukraine well just lately and f. B. I. Agents criminal complaint said ukrainian neo nazis were believed to have trained White Supremacists in america just wait till some of these youngsters grow up. Well if we go back to january ukraine and pass the law recognizing russia quote as an aggressor state and then just last week the ukrainian vice Prime Minister said his country is trying to build a strong democracy as the kremlin supports populist nationalist movements but journalist Brian Mcdonnell who has been monitoring the coverage of the ukraine conflict since interrupted four years ago believes we may have reached a turning point im just shocked that its finally been reported in the west i mean Associated Press have gone in there obviously a Syndication Agency so obviously that you know their company that has to be reported in other mediums im pleasantly surprised that you know outfits like the Washington Post notably have covered it although some of the usual suspects you know the guardian and outlets i doubt if ignored the story once again but thats not surprising but. Its good that for the first time you know many readers in western countries are finally learning something about whats really going on in western ukraine particular with these nationalist groups the way things work in the west is that you need pressure groups you know think tanks to kind of get on these bandwagons and kind of you know almost force the agenda and whats very interesting is here weve got children you know schoolchildren minors being trained to hate being trained to kill as being trained to fight and where is Amnesty International where is Human Rights Watch i mean theyre not interested i mean where is the American Embassy what its supposed moral leadership you know lashing out against this where the British Embassy of.
