The middle east as israel carries out an as strike against a radian troops in syria just days after suspected israeli drone attacks in lebanon and iraq. Time here in moscow whatever youre doing work around the world war welcome to Art International with me kevin how in 1st the judge in oklahoma has ruled that the drug maker johnson and johnson is responsible for driving the states Opioid Crisis and ordering it to pay 572000000. 00 in compensation as a fine he said the pharmaceutical giant run of false and dangerous Marketing Campaign which downplayed the risk of addiction and directly contributed to deaths johnson and johnson said it will appeal the decision with a look at the implications of the case in more detail caleb opened today. Got a landmark ruling today in oklahoma the drug manufacturer johnson and johnson a giant Big Pharmaceutical Company in the United States has been found guilty and has been ordered to pay 572000000. 00 to the state of oklahoma in order to deal with the ongoing Opioid Epidemic in the United States this is the 1st time that a big pharmaceutical manufacturers corporation has gone to trial in a case alleging responsibility regarding the Opioid Crisis this is the prosecutor in the case stating what the judge ruled judge bachmann has affirmed or position that johnson and johnson motivated by greed and avarice is responsible for the yoke you would have to make. Johnson and johnson will finally be healed accountable for thousands of deaths and addiction caused by their activities now at the trial the prosecution argued that johnson and johnson and its subsidiaries had overstated the effectiveness of their opioid drugs when it comes came to treating ongoing chronic pain they overstated their effectiveness in treating ongoing chronic pain and understated the risk of addiction posed by their products previously the way Big Pharmaceutical Companies have avoided going to trial is by settling out of court and paying out hundreds of millions of dollars or do pharmaceuticals manage to withdraw themselves from the case by paying a 270000000. 00 settlement furthermore tell the pharmaceutical industries they withdrew from the case in may by paying an 85000000. 00 settlement so johnson and johnson was the only defendant in the case they were found guilty now they do expect to appeal the decision the defense argues that this will not hold up in a court of appeal they think that they will be exempt and that the the convey. It will be overturned however this is a landmark moment because this is the 1st time that a Big Pharmaceutical Company has been found at trial to be responsible for the Opioid Epidemic and many different forces in the United States have long argued that Big Pharmaceutical Companies should be held responsible for the ongoing Opioid Epidemic that has claimed a number a large number of american lives. Rates of opioid addiction of increased dramatically in the u. S. Over the past 20 years culminating in a nationwide epidemic confirmed in the late 1990 s. Prescriptions for pain killers were made by the available as pharmaceutical companies showed doctors that their patients would not become addicted but it quickly became clear that if many people were becoming addicted dependent with deaths from opioid overdoses reaching a record 4202060 then the following year the government declared a Public Health emergency over it fast forward no 2019 an estimated 130 americans have been dying every day as a result of opioid medicines the Health Crisis is also placing a huge burden on the u. S. Economy and encouraging high rates of heroin use addiction specialist and a limp occultists that both the pharmaceutical industry and doctors failed in their duties to customers and patients. Well doctor certainly there are some responsibility for the opiate epidemic but i think to really understand how this happened in the United States its necessary to realize that a whole generation of physicians was educated to believe that opioids are not addictive as long as youre giving them to a patient in pain and this was a message that was eagerly adopted by produced by johnson and johnson by chance and by t. V. By many other opioid manufacturers why because it helped their bottom line to sell more opioids so certainly doctors have to be reeducated as they are now they have to withhold opioids they have to stop prescribing opioids for ankle sprains for chronic pain conditions we would not want the pendulum to swing in the opposite direction and for people who really need opioids not to be able to get them so finding some kind of middle ground is going to be essential. French president to accrue and have on monday what he called extremely productive g. 7 summit after 3 days of talks wrapped up and be a roots but this by the group of attorney World Leaders voicing optimism for the future this is meeting produce a few concrete commitments and our Senior Correspondent were goes to. It was nice nice stuff the weather was decent lots of people nice people good conversation and good stuff nice good and you. First of all i would like to thank President Trump and all the heads of state and government present here for the extremely Productive Work and very productive discussions weve had since saturday evening together i want to thank you very much mr president for the credible job you did this is a truly successful g 7 there was tremendous unity it was great unity as i said nice not exactly wonderful or amazing but yeah pretty nice i mean could have been better they could have agreed on something significant the cheveley little more argued the little less and the fee there was a lot of nervousness at the outset a lot of expectations a lot of tensions and we had a lot of conflicts just look at the bright side theres always next year to get something done is not nice to be fair there was a lot of stuff on the agenda in the trade war with china the brazilian president s rudeness brecks and shenanigans whether to invite the largest country in the world iran for the millionth time. We all know what trump things about iran much as a bit of a cold war between the 2 most of the rest of the world actually wants to go back to the Nuclear Agreement trump ripped up what a conundrum huh so invites the foreign minister of iran hoping to break the ice and surprisingly things became a little all could also unsurprisingly trumpet would heed his own tide before admitting it it was coming in and i respected the fact that it was coming in and he met with president mcbroom in iran is a very difficult situation. There. In the position not a very good position from the standpoint of economics and thats ok because we concluded a very quickly even said hes open to meeting irans president when the time is right perhaps after another few rounds of sanctions once they find something in iran they havent sanctioned yet speaking of sanctions that trade war is still raging. One mans sanctions are another mans tariffs and the United States likes both so much so trump says he regretted not imposing more tariffs on chinese made goods because as trump making companies and consumers the average american pay more for ordinary stuff is great for everyone which didnt go down well with the rest of the summit squad just to the point. Of view of free will. To be honest it wasnt trumps greatest performance there they were having a nice dinner all in cincy is smiles and forced laughs and use and brings up the boogie man. Trying joining your michel in star red shoe missed you prepared mommy tackled style while trump talks about inviting russia back apparently he wouldnt shut up about it i think if youre working for. A number of people who would like to see russia back i think it would be and it would be advantageous to. Many things in the world or das it worse some of those present agreed why on earth would you want to invite a country thats a key player in almost every major global issue well it would make sense but not off the crimea g 7 is for friends and friends pretend to be there for each other everyone knows that and putin it seems has Better Things to do. Whats going to get a little g 8 doesnt exist anymore how can i return to an organization which doesnt exist today its the g 7 regarding a potential format with 8 Member States we never reject any proposals some time ago it was russias turn to hold a g. 8 meeting but our partners didnt. But there are other International Organizations which play a significant role in International Affairs take the g 20. All in all as i said nice all the great is g 708 sco but the total catastrophe but this year trump even scientists single page unlike last year when he simply stormed out. That really wasnt nice. Were getting there we asked of involve us libertarian politician whether or not he thought there were any positives to be drawn from this years summit. The g. 7 is to the world at what the Federal Reserve is the United States is a meddling problematic internationally damaging organization whose time has come and gone and we no longer should be having decent meetings at all in my view to me it was political theater i think that the United States and iran should talk i think that not talking to an unstable regime that is on the verge of becoming a Nuclear Power is a diplomatic mistake what should be doing in terms of of tariffs is getting rid of all of them there is every reason to get rid of tariffs that does not require a g 7 or g 8 or a g 20 it simply requires individuals to say i dont want to pay more for the same thing i mean country that unilaterally lowers tariffs is going to benefit its own citizens immediately. Across this next for the u. N. Is calling for maximum restraint between israel and its adverse or raises fears of a new conflict in the middle east grow the police comes up to tel aviv and has strike against a radian forces in syria on saturday in what it said was an effort to thwart a planned drone attack then lebanon and iraq now also accusing israel of conducting aerial attacks against militia groups on their territory of the weekend to wrap it all up dont quarter. Continued instability in the middle east and the alleged culprit is not the wests usual fall boy the israeli strikes were similar to a declaration of war and our country has a right to defend itself a series of attacks syria lebanon and iraq and people are pointing the finger at israel. At least they owned up to that last attack usually accusations that israels attacked another sovereign nation are met with silence from tel aviv but this time Benjamin Netanyahu justified the attack claiming iran was targeting his country with explosive drones according to him the situation was kill or be killed. But logan. If someone rises to kill you rise up and kill him 1st in a complicated operation by our Security Forces we determine that irans quds force dispatched a special unit of militants into syria to kill israelis on the Golan Heights with explosive drones i would like to emphasize that this was an initiative overrun under the command of iran at the behest of iran netanyahu often harps on about the supposed dangers of iran but when it comes to the facts the Islamic Republic is often on the receiving end of military violence about a year ago israel struck nearly all of irans military structures inside syria it was the countrys biggest assault since the beginning of the civil war back then netanyahu played the very same preemptive strike card wherever he will hit back sevenfold whoever prepares to strike at us we will act to strike at them beforehand this is what we have done and this is what we will continue to do the never ending demonize ation of iran might have made israel its share of enemies in the middle east but in the west its reeled in some powerful allies this is 40 years 40 years of the line behavior so whether it was seizing a british tanker that was in International Waters or shooting down an american u. A. B. That was also in International Airspace or assassination campaigns in europe are trying to kill an ambassador here in the United States has this long history of blind behavior iran had its tankers detained its airspace violated by drones its military installations outright bombed all by the u. S. And israel what other aggressive provocations does iran have up its sleeve we asked analysts in both israel and around them for their assessments on both sides of the situation. Iran is trying to envelope israel from all of the sides through hezbollah which is effectively iran through syria through iraq and even through gaza its like a big octopus sending its arms in order to strangle israel the problem you have these israelis like this oil brat of the world. And because no one no one calls it to account its allowed to get away with essentially minute. Talking to it and hit 3 separate sovereign countries in the past few days israel has no issue with iran if iran would focus inward on on its own people and stop trying to destroy israel as it explicitly says itll do and this meant in terror around the world we would have no issue with iran however iran has decided to attack israel to build forces and to strangle israel but were not going to wait with Defense Systems you dont win by playing defense you have to preempt and thats what we will do i see no one questioning why israel is doing something why israel is provoking the situation at the end of the day israel needs to understand that iran has said this time and time again that look youre playing with fire dont do this dont be silly behave yourself iran has been a real interest in starting a war and iran will not stop the war its a long time and i have said it categorically. What iran will do if it is attacked or its allies within the resistance axis are directly attacked they will retaliate and rightly so because in this case the aggressor the one whos instigating problems whos lying and making up fairy stories because its control and influence within the Mainstream Media is israel and everyone knows israel is a ropes that its a country that is close to 400. 00 Nuclear Weapons targeted at multiple countries and yet no n. P. T. And no questioning no no discussion about to get iran which has a Nuclear ProgramEnergy Program it constantly gets accused of making Nuclear Weapons and all this stuff which is slightly from the supreme leaders own discreet discourse is forbidden.
