A British Foreign office motional a free speech conference calling to defend the freedom of the press. 27 live from the russian capital this is National Meet us contain a welcomed program. And fast stop a minute to court has cleared a navy seal accused of multiple war crimes of all key charges as well as the controversial nature of his acquittal and would once again raises concerns of the pentagon conduct overseas caleb maupin has the details. The military court in san diego has acquitted gallagher on 6 out of the 7 charges that he faced involving the killing of civilians he was convicted on a charge of posing for a photograph with a corpse which is a violation of the rules however of the maximum sentence for such a violation is only 4 months in prison and hes served 9 months in pretrial detention so at this point he is indeed a free man now it appears that his acquittal was essentially hinged on the testimony of a of a Navy Seal Medic who testified that he himself was responsible for the killing of the the ice still fighter who was captured the teenager that he himself was responsible for this this fighters death and that it wasnt any gallagher now its interesting to note that this Navy Seal Key had been given immunity so he cannot be charged for this killing now when the verdict came in the family and legal team of Eddie Gallagher was triumphant huge victory huge we call to gallaghers huge victory for justice it was stealing like i finally been defeated after being terrorized by the government that my husband bought for for 2 decades in the war on terror hes tried every major enemy of the United States here they write this and noble individual and his name has been smeared in flanders in track through the mud now its important to note that it was any gallaghers own platoon members in the navy seals who turned him in saying that he had shot civilians and that he had posted a photo on social media of the corpse with himself holding the head of the still fighter and holding up his knife saying got him with my knife however he has been acquitted and at this point weve seen donald trump tweeting out in support of any gallagher saying his wonderful wife andre and his family entire family you have been through much together glad. I could help thats us President Donald Trump however there have been many voices on social media that have seemingly accused Eddie Gallagher of being guilty of these crimes and said he is a war criminal saying that his acquittal is a bit of a disgrace and hurts the image of the United States around the world so quite a bit of a mixed reaction on social media to the acquittal as kate of mention callicles found guilty of posing for a photo with a corpse just a few hours ago he was sentenced to 4 months of confinement hes already got time though in the form of pretrial detention the navy seals also have both his rank pay which used veteran and with a captain want to help him we heard from beans that i would go out of admiration. Thank you gallery because there is a hero not just to the United States and United States military but to the world because hes over there fighting isis which is an enemy that very few countries are willing to put forth troops and resources to can to fight themselves so he basically is being charged with premeditated murder for an isis fighter in my mind and im just a simple man here but that sounds like an oxymoron that you would send a navy seal to go fight isis which is a cancer upon humanity yes or humans but theyve made themselves to be monsters and so they should be treated as such and so when you say that youre going to charge someone with premeditated murder of isis in a combat zone little own a navy seal i just think thats completely contradictory doesnt make any sense.

Message to Chinese Government good ruination is between countries so based on Mutual Respect and honor in the legally binding agreements between them that is the best way to preserve the great relationship between the u. K. And china is talking about the reference that to the one country 2 systems agreement that was something that was signed when hong kong was handed back to the chinese and it gives the our englund to move freedoms such as economic freedoms but what were seeing at the moment is tensions between the u.

We can all middle of the room 6. 1000000 real new. Magic mushrooms used down some concepts used in the wrong way carry carry potential like any any psychoactive substances.

Welcome back judah song supporters have mocked britains Foreign Office for posting a video demanding freedom of the press across the world ahead of a conference on free speech. Part. With the rest of this current examination were giving it out. The promotional video that youve just seen has been posted on the Foreign Offices twitter feed and its to promote the upcoming conference on press freedom the irony is that amongst all of that for the emphasis on freedom of speech and freedom for the press theres no mention anywhere of Julian Assange which was something that wasnt lost on his supporters who said plenty of things below on that twitter feed you have to believe in freedom before you write about it today Julian Assange just birthday wish him a happy day in your prison this is hilarious considering youre currently daughtry one of the premier journalists about time who came up with this complain take action to free his son jeff you mean it the fan Media Freedom well as well as that promotional video the Foreign Office also had on its twitter feed videos about imprisoned journalists and also called for people to follow the hash tag defend Media Freedom of course which is very much just passed by jeremy hunts the foreign secretary and the conservative Leadership Party candidate as well as amal clearly the human rights lawyer who in the past has represented julian a song though this is rather ironic because its come on the 48 birthday of Julian Assange and in the world in his hometown where his father lives there have been celebrations and collaborations off the wiki leaks founder of course mixed feelings. Overjoyed and in a bit distressed and overwrought. Constant. And. Toward. The end of. All those 9 years that jump ship simmers referring to there were basically going back to that extradition claim by sweden for alleged Sexual Assault although. Back to 2012 and in those years in the meantime Julian Assange has been fighting to clear his name also to fight extradition hes also fighting extradition to the United States and thats thats in relation to Chelsea Manning and all those alleged war crimes that were already exposed by her in the leaks that were provided to wiki leaks and so while the u. K. Is preparing for this conference on Media Freedom in melbourne theyre having this party but also this sort of commemorations with Julian Assange and also protests in the meantime the 48 year old himself is spending his birthday in belmarsh prison in stasis london because he is in breach of his belt conditions thats what they imprisoned him for for 50 weeks and also waiting for that full u. S. Extradition hearing that will take place in february next year. The e. U. Parliament has elected its new president its lee is david saucily of the socialist and democrat faction bought by me please have yet to approve a successor as European Commission chief. Has proposed job and defense minister of one delay and she will now need the backing for majority of the 751 m. E ps she is known as a federalist supporting the creation of a single United States of europe sovereign nation and an e. U. Army she would become the fast woman to head the commission which has helped her win support but not everyone is sold on her candidacy especially as he has suddenly scrapped the establishment nations system requiring her to have full backing of a party group. From their line is our weakest minister thats apparently enough to become Commission President osullivans alone is unacceptable less head of the e. U. Commission for social democrats we cannot simply throw the top candidate principle overboard because the results of the election did not suit some heads of government leaders have also put forward a new head of the e. U. Council who will take over from donald tusk theyve opted for a belgian Prime Minister charles show however this pick was or didnt sit well with many in the European Parliament party m. E. P.
