A more than a year of tensions in italys Ruling Coalition have come to a head with. Offering his resignation its off to the countrys interior minister called for a vote of no confidence once again leaves italy in deep political crisis. Well that resignation over its lease Prime Minister said because they had been widely speculated for the last few days and now its happened to force plunging italy into a fresh political crisis in his resignation speech on cheese the often he noticed a blistering attack on the deputy Prime Minister and interior minister matusow beanie over the leak basically accusing him of doing everything to profiteer himself and profiteers party but the government and he accused materials so binnie of being the one whos driving the government into crisis make it all up to the poll mantra debate will go to the president of the republic to officially communicate then to this government intended in my resignation this Prime Minister well salvini had cooled 2 weeks ago for snap elections amidst the Summer Holidays in italy saying that the Coalition Government as it stood was simply not workable saying that he just couldnt work under the constraints of that government. On the world of business of the man as those that produce things but its really demands action so the only thing that italy cannot afford is to waste time anyone who is wasting time is doing so because theyre afraid of losing this seat we asked that we vote as soon as possible the italians will choose a government the government a Coalition Government was formed back in june of 2018 and it was a pretty even more pretty or coupling between the Left Wing Party of the 5 Star Movement and the anti immigration anti Establishment Party over the league the 2 coming together to form that Government Back in june of last year following the elections in march since then what we have seen is a rather rocky road with the partners having several disagreements including recently about a rare willing. Between france and italy what also has happened is this been a reversal in the fortunes of the 2 parties since those elections about 14 months ago back then we saw the 5 Star Movement taking the lions share of the vote compared to the league and now it seems to flipped on its head with poll suggesting if a vote was held today that the league thats material being his party would take some 38 percent of the boat significantly higher than what the polls say would happen to the 5 Star Movement so what does this all mean for italy now well thats perhaps the 1000000. 00 question there is the chance that the feinstein Movement Lost in the Biggest Party could now go on to form another Coalition Government with of the parties leading the Democratic Party led by italys former Prime Minister to you renzi and that was something that the material sylvie actually hinted about today when he launched his own attack in the senate we could also see a technocrat government or a National Unity government or of course they could be those snap elections. Lets discuss this live with for the record being the professor of Political Science at university of rhode thanks for joining us professor good to have you on the program what do you see happening now in the Italian Government what changes could we see internally and externally. Professor can you hear me just doing another sound check what do you think is going to happen now to be that i dont know if government what that means. Ill. Let you know. Ok it looks like were having some technical problems there with august professor going to try to get back to you in just a few moments time when the engineers have a look at that. They do apologize to i guess well try to get the professor back to give our interview as soon as we can in the meantime the u. S. Has conducted its 1st test of a 500 kilometer Cruise Missile a time previously banned for over 3 decades and now defunct arms control treaty with moscow and washington russias foreign minister claimed the u. S. Was preparing for the test long before the treaty expired in early august it should be known from october of last year when the u. S. National security advisor john bolton visited us he said that donald trump statement about washingtons withdrawal from the treaty is not an invitation to dialogue but a final decision it appears that then or maybe even earlier us started preparing the missile tests conducted on sunday and banned by the treaty the department of defense conducted to fly test of the conventionally configured ground launch Cruise Missile of the us west coast sunday the test missile exited its ground mobile launcher and accurately impacted this target after more than 500 commanders off light the intermediate range Nuclear Forces treaty was signed between the 2 rivaling superpowers in the cold war in 1970 and burned certain types of short and mid range missiles expired on the 2nd of august with donald trump saying he had no willingness to extend it due to alleged violations by the Kremlin Russia denied the claims and repeatedly invited washington for talks but some parts of the us establishment werent welcoming the idea. The United States must regain the strategic advantage by expediting the development and deployment of a new generation of ground launched missiles now the department of defense will be able to conduct those Precision Development activities bento to an f. 3 t. So the department of defense will still have some building though system they couldnt be full United States has said that this is not Nuclear Capable and the United States is planning for another test probably in november this one and somewhere between 508000 kilometers a range but the one that theyre testing in november its miscreants 3004000 kilometers or range thats another one this year is a very unfortunate moves that have been going on for the past couple years at least well we can actually dated back to 2001 with the announcement that the u. S. Is going to clarify the a. B. M. Treaty theres only one major nonproliferation treaty remaining the new start treaty which ends and 2021 and the United States has already indicated that it will almost certainly pull out of that one also or not when they do that one which means we are on the verge of nuclear anarchy. The u. S. Attorney general william barr has removed the acting director of u. S. Prisons from his post off to the recent death of disgraced millionaire Geoffrey Epstein the summer like this of praise the decision amid concerns over the conditions a jail where he took his own life. But obscene was convicted of paedophilia back in 2007 at the time he was sentenced to 30 months in prison that was part of the deal signed by then u. S. Attorney alexander across the epstein had many friends in high places among them donald trump bill clinton and Prince Andrew now at the time of his death the financier was awaiting trial for sex trafficking offenses he was being held at a facility reserved for the most dangerous criminals el chapo the drug baron just one of them epstein and been taken off suicide watch thats the spite having made a recent attempt on his own life and we spoke to his former lawyer mark furnish he says conditions at the jail may have pushed him to the edge. The conditions to which he was subjected would buckle even the knees of the strongest among us its this is one of the toughest federal pretrial detention facilities in the country and the conditions are inhumane epstein was subjected to conditions that were similar to those of guzman but not remotely justified by his character or what he was accused of because he was not. A violent individual like Chapman Chapo was alleged to have been and hes not a guy who has escaped from prior facilities like guzman was alleged to have done so one would be comparing apples and oranges to liken the 2 to each other but yet their conditions of confinement were strikingly similar and theres something fundamentally wrong with that and whats fundamentally wrong with that is that geoffrey abstain did not belong in that facility to begin with. Just my own personal opinion it wouldnt surprise me to learn of anything that might have happened with Jeffrey Epstein and in my view at that in that facility the real story the real miracle is that we dont hear about these sort of things more about murdered pretrial detainees or suicidal pretrial detainees because the facility. Is barbaric and its a whole. Its like i dont use the word lightly lightly but its sort of like an american go log for people who have not yet been convicted of anything so the real shock here is that we dont hear about deaths at pretrial oppressive onerous pretrial detention facilities like the m. C. C. More often. Any of us could one day find ourselves rightly or wrongly on on the. Business and of of the United States department of justice and nobody nobody said should be subjected to the conditions that epstein was exposed to for many reasons one of which is it compromises your mental and physical functioning and you cant assist adequately in preparing your own defense and it crushes people we dont really know what happened to mr epstein but but certainly i believe personally that being a locked in a facility like that under extraordinary conditions would logically wreak havoc with ones mind and body so i certainly i certainly believe that they personally that they could have played a role absolutely i mean i think we would be foolish to to deny that but again one doesnt want to treat the symptom while ignoring the disease and the disease is. How people are routinely denied bail with a shocking ease given the laws that Congress Passed allowing prosecutors and judge to do that abstain did not belong locked up pending trial and he didnt belong in a hellhole like that before he had been convicted about anything. Social media platforms twitter and facebook say theyve blocked a number of chinese accounts for trying to undermine the protests in hong kong. We are disclosing a significant stayed back to informational parishioners focused on the situation hong kong this disclosure consists of 936 a cancer vegetating from within the peoples republic of china over all these accounts were deliberately and specifically attempting to sow political discord in hong kong including undermining the legitimacy and political positions of the protest movement on the ground we removed 7 pages 3 groups and 5 Facebook Accounts involved in coordinated in authentic behavior as part of a Small Network that originated in china and focused on hong kong. The protest movement in hong kong started back in june over drof legislation allowing its tradition of suspects to Mainland China demonstrations have since brought into other political issues over the past 11 weeks rallies have frequently turned violent with police using tear gas and rubber bullets against protests this Little Corner takes a closer look at whats behind the protests. Freedom Fair Elections democracy its words like these youll find throughout the western Media Coverage of the protests in hong kong but the reality of it is all much more complicated was. Its not just politics motivating the violence racial slurs against people from Mainland China can be heard throughout the crowds and seen graffitied on official buildings protesters have also been seen brandishing the infamously racist pepe the frog me an internet hate symbol and this is enough phobic violence has even spilled over to protests in other countries. Was. This anti china extremism comes from a concept called hong kong exceptionalism the idea that hong kong has more in common with the west than with china because of its British Colonial past and that ideologies it here in sa are not exactly shy about their love for all things anti china 6 6. Despite all the american flags and anthem singing donald trump says he had no idea why protests were being blamed on the u. S. But his cabinet might have an explanation since theyve been meeting with one of the oppositions main icons jimmy lie im hit. Appreciation lies a selfmade billionaire whos made a huge mark on hong kongs Opposition Movement he landed himself in hot water with beijing back in 2012 when his newspaper published an ad portraying pregnant Chinese Women as locusts and hes very open about his feelings for American Values we need to know that america is behind us by backing our samaritans sharing moral authority because we are the only place in china which shares your values and is fighting the same battle you have with china but theres another younger and not so rich rebel leader at play here too joshua wong a fresh 22 year old face of revolution a face loved in many corridors of washington to marco rubio was so in all he nominated wong for a Nobel Peace Prize leave it to washington to nominate a leader of violent protests for peace when it suits him agenda the us is very determinately supporting these protesters every arm of the corporate media. Radio Television Social Media is is raising them and always referring to them as prodemocracy protesters where theyre not at all this has nothing to do with democracy and they are determined to sabotage in every way that they can any normal relations between china with hong kong and it is creating intentionally a great deal of confusion among young people who have been pulled into this against their own interests we asked the u. S. State department and leaders of the Hong Kong Protest Movement to comment on the links we highlighted so far would not receive the response the tensions between beijing and washington are also high over another part of china taiwan abridging is furious the trumpet ministrations approved the sale of fatah jets to the island and is warning it will take action if the deal goes ahead. China has made numerous solemn representation to the u. S. On the sale of the f. 16 v. Jets to taiwan the u. S. Just about all the consequences triggered by the sale its 8000000000. 00 u. S. Dollars its a lot of money thats a lot of jobs and we know theyre going to use these f. 16. 00 responsibly the deal still needs to be approved by the u. S. Senate if it goes through it will be the 1st sale of f. 16 fighters to taiwan since the 1992 the previous requests for jets by taiwan were rejected by the Obama Administration last month the u. S. State Department Approved the nother arms deal with taiwan includes 108 tanks and more than 200. 00 missiles the deal is worth 2200000000. 00 at a time beijing also accused the u. S. Of meddling saying it would cut ties with every American Company involved in that deal with taiwan is officially recognized by only 18 countries the u. S. Though has not officially been a supporter of the islands military since the ninetys which i want of course sees taiwan as part of its territory china expert i will ease says beijing will point the finger at washington if tensions escalate. There is some unity in washington to go hard on china and some of these folks who are elected theyre basically elected with the same funding for the people who got people into the trumpet midst gratian and who fund the think tanks in washington and so its all basically representing the same elite interests china sees this as an aggressive move by the u. S. To try to provoke them into war the chinese basically up and say that the u. S. Is going to be at fault here because theyre not being consistent and not honoring the promises that were made in previous administrations and so this big departure is going to be on the u. S. And thats where they want to place the blame here if there is any military escalation that happens.
