Or broadcasting live direct from our studios in moscow this is Arch International and im going to have with us as we recount the weeks top stories. A 2nd whistleblower has emerged in the impeachment probe against donald trump the unnamed intelligence official report of the has information on at the u. S. President s dealings with ukraine meanwhile democrats spearheading the investigation are demanding protection for the informants involved that is despite their attitude towards other whistleblowers in recent years as arties killed mop and comments. We are now told that in this dark age of tyranny one heroic individual has spoken up like a voice crying out in the wilderness we dont know his name or his occupation but we know that he is good and i think the whistleblower did the right thing i think he followed the law every step of the way the Inspector General of the Intelligence Community found this whistleblower complaint both credible and urgent i want to say thank you also to the whistleblower for having the courage of the bravery to come forward on behalf of the nation now not only must this gallant hero be held in the highest level of reverence but he must also be protected from any attack on him would be an attack on the american way of life from everything we know and we dont know much this is a experienced person who saw things that bothered him thats what the whole whistle blower statue is for and it is to protect their identity and i understand hes going to testify and well let the process unfold and the you remember how Hillary Clinton apparently wanted to kill julian assad with a drone well lets not get lost in details but lets go over some recent whistleblowers in u. S. History. I never tortured anybody. But im heading to prison while the tortures of the lawyers are going to and the people who deceived and the man who destroyed the proof of the tapes will never face justice ive never gained anything through what ive said publicly that ive lost everything. We had special ops forces the dead man can leak stuff this guy is a traitor a treasonous illegally shoot the son of a. Mr snowden was a patriot he is a law breaker he violated american law he violated his duties that he assumed when he took the job that he had lets look at snowden here you know some might try to shift say that oh hes a great human rights crusader he is not at all like the great human rights crusaders in the past might argue that this case is different because this whistleblower didnt run to the press but simply followed standard procedure but the record seems to show that a lot of cases have whistleblowers who do follow this procedure so why jail time for some of them it turns out the law does not actually protect them from retaliation they can be fired or prosecuted so are all future whistleblowers doomed well not quite secure backers carefully protecting whistleblowers who see wrongdoing of any kind in our government is essential so if youre a whistleblower in america take a step back look over what you have been ask yourself get this information benefit anyone powerful in america if not your official complaint will probably be ignored and if you dont shut up after that the consequences could be severe the current case is very different from others. The others were blowing the whistle on the system so these were real real abuses what crimes and abuses of our 4th amendment. This new whistleblower we need to put in quotes what was he reporting of course there are double standards there are standards for those who want to put pursue their political aims using this particular whistleblower in quotes and there are other rules for people who really oppose the system and its abuses. One of the people just mentioned in calebs report Edward Snowden has reacted on twitter he says it is unbelievable that the media is not pressing politicians about the case of another whistleblower former n. S. A. Analyst daniel hale who is being prosecuted for leaking information on u. S. Drone warfare programs. This week india marked 150 years since the birth of Mahatma Gandhi a man seen as a global symbol of a nonviolent resistance on wednesday a Major Political parties paid tribute to gandhi they even ordered officials to undertake pilgrimages walking up to 15 kilometers a day in their constituencies and sleeping in villages gandhis legacy is recognised globally and his birthday the 2nd of october is celebrated worldwide as the International Day of nonviolence the indian Prime Minister honored him in a speech at the un. Gandhi ji Mahatma Gandhi was in india but he not only belong to india he stayed far away from the government today in the hopes of billions of people is influenced the lives of people who never met. The king jr to know some mandela. Mama gandhi spearheaded the indian resistance against british rule and is often referred to as the father of the nation throughout his life he promoted the ideology of nonviolent resistance and tolerance towards other religions india finally shook off British Colonial rule in 147. 00 but a year later gandhi was assassinated by hindu nationalists today opinions on gandhi are more mixed garveys poster in one northeastern city was defaced with graffiti which read the traitor of the nation is also claims that earned with some of his ashes was stolen the editor of news magazine india today blames the act on the descendants of the same hindu extremists who killed gabi. Due to member. And some off his associates shot. In the us. 948 the members of this not poor dumb got sick group who also claim to be hindus they have a very narrow notion of in the wisdom they want to impose some very sort of in our notions of hindu ism deep believe that might mundanity gandhi was responsible for the partition of india they think that he was appeasing the muslim the Muslim League which demanded the creation of pakistan i think such groups have been totally marginalized and because they are marginalized therefore they carry on extremist activities so i dont see this group of this kind of activity coming into the mainstream i see them carrying on these kind of activities once in a while in order to stay afloat they make all kinds of extremist arguments sometimes they have even bill that held responsible for some amount of violence so but i dont think its a very large group but only had this very tolerant and you know very sort of broaden and progress a notion of nationalism which i think majority indians understand and thats why such extremist groups can never become the Mainstream Group in the country. We trace the life of bottom of gandhi in a set of feature length reports you can watch them on the r. T. E. Documentary website and also the r g documentary channel on you tube. He did make a good night but it didnt go on cruel cruel but it did make the doc good night but again i again take it i. Eat. If im a good thing british people do get independent but didnt fight might injure me too you know you cant do that in my head asian. To know if they do the media. That makes the money could be a film that makes gandhi could be a bad the next god he could be a 12 year old child it could be any of these people but we need the big sky which is ready for the goes deal with why because change. I. A recent fire at a chemical factory in northern france has caused a Major Public Health concerns but this week authorities in the city of russia declared the area safe there is no risk regarding asbestos fiber in the area the results of 3 a specialist tests are available. For the best here we are in the area closest to the place of the disaster and we can see that the white swans have stayed there in their habitats and there is no trash of pollution in the water so we have physical proof that the environment and wildlife are not currently effected by the pollution that occurred to the 2 further away. In an attempt to calm fears the french government even set up an emergency helpline but locals are still deeply concerned for their health and are deeply skeptical about authorities claims that the air is safe to breathe or to show the penske travel there for us. The Chemical Plant just across the water that was a blaze a thick plume of black smoke bellowed into the sky as firefighters battled almost 24 hours against the flames. In the dark goodies with im not saying that the smell isnt pleasant im just telling you what the results of the tests are namely that the air is not harmful since then there has been growing anger over what some say is a lack of information over what was put into not fire and the impact that could have on peoples health. You can talk to any firemen but when you have any type of contact with the smoke its dangerous it can be lethal because of the Carbon Monoxide and in this case when the smoke went into the sky we didnt know what was in it we dont know exactly what is in the year and we worry a lot that in the future it might bring cancer or something else. I have 4 kids and they were impacted by the smell and my grades i thought about having tests done but for was with absolutely no information about what we should be looking for so i could take blood samples but what are you going to tell them to look for i know they could be cancer thyroid problems but the problem is that we hear lots of rumors nothing concrete. I think there is a risk for health and i can feel it because i have an e g throat and im continuously coffee we worried about the how to march children in the future will they have cancer or something we just dont know around the rule some people are also taking that proportions some locals have also experienced no vomiting whilst others. Complain that the top due to its black and then there is the stench you can smell that the air is foul its a bit like rotting eggs but with a chemical tinge and despite the initial denials that there was no health risk the French Health minister has admitted that the rule is clearly pollutant. It is a factory that produces hydrocarbons even if not in large volumes it is never good for the population to come across these kinds of products i cannot say that there is no danger the city is clearly polluted several schools were closed off to the fire and though some have attempted to reopen many teachers are refusing to return to work. Colleagues from schools near lubrizol who have refused to work until they receive information about what was burnt and the risk because they are just a few 100 metres away from the site they did so to protect their health and that of the children who are under their responsibility and thats why there has been a demand that the original school 30 acknowledged their right not to have children attend school under this condition. While Health Concerns are immediate whats perhaps most telling about the danger people here are facing is the fact that food sales from 100 districts around ruin have been banned any produce that may have been exposed to contamination has to be destroyed that even includes milk. Hybrid carrots and work closely with milk produces dioxins are measured in memory grams and there are a problem for us because they become highly concentrated in milk and toxic so they render it unfit for consumption it is vital for us to know as soon as possible whether there are any dioxins in those burning materials whats going on he would tell us what to do with our produce so much from the fire house even reached as far as belgium and the netherlands raising concerns that the impact could be even the ija reaching flags have also been raised for the health of the police and the firefighters who wont do you see during the fire protests like this have now formed to pressure the authorities to outline any risks they make face they demanding answers but are afraid that even if they recede. Isnt that the danger is that as a result of that place may know its a major the months or even years from now show that youve been skiing all see the world. If you park worker has been fired for doing the ok gesture in a photo will tell you why a short break this is the weekly r t international. What politicians do. They put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. So when you want to be president. Some want to be preached. To the right to be press to see what the full story of the boy cant be good. Im interested always in the waters about how. Things should. Go to financial survival it was all about Money Laundering 1st to visit this confession to 3 different. Oh good this is a good start well we have our 3 banks all set up here maybe something in your something in america something overseas in the Cayman Islands or do we do all these banks are complicit in the kleptocracy we decided to give mccall and say to do some serious Money Laundering ok lets see how we did well weve got a nice luxury watch for max and for stacy oh beautiful jewelry and how about. Luxury automobile again for max you know what Money Laundering highly illegal. Watch guys are of course. I. Know weekly a theme park employee in florida has been fired for a seemingly innocent hand gesture the former employee dressed as the character grew from despicable me a maid and upside down ok symbol when posing with a 6 Year Old Girl who is biracial the ok hand gesture was recently recognized as a hate symbol americas Antidefamation League says that the once innocent sign has been hijacked by white supremacists. Even as extremists continue to use symbols that maybe years or decades old they regularly create new symbols means and slogan sticks press their heads full sentiments we believe Law Enforcement and the public needs to be fully informed about the meaning of these images which can serve as a 1st a warning sign to the presence of hate in the community or school well the ok symbols white power meaning was initially part of an online prank but apparently white supremacist liked what they saw and started using it that way in earnest among them the suspected gunman in the Christ Church mosque shootings in new zealand during a Court Appearance now last year a former white house employee was accused of making the white power sign but her defenders pointed out that was probably unlikely because she is a Mexican American and a descendant of Holocaust Survivors we asked our guests for their views on the story. I think its pretty ridiculous to label a thing like a bull or the ok symbol as a symbol of White Supremacy i feel like race is do do certain things i mean at a certain point they do everything or people do mean races have to eat food they have to drink water they have to breathe air so at what point do we label eating food as racist Drinking Water as received in breathing air is received its just really can of started his particular point sounds a little some of these things that have been in his ear things were very low with or a soused hateful subversive groups the problem is that the symbol has become an actual code to say hey we are part of this group you are not and you know the main part of it is like. Well its a far its far right movement supporting you know again far right ideologies that are very well known in this country to be you know forest and but my point is you know is vastly out for instance and it was an indian sacred religious symbol 50500 years b. C. And you know. People in germany its ok to put it on a on a red flag and now it was a symbol it was an inverted this massacre and that became the symbol of nazism and ok but the ok sign is nat day all right ok so you can find it right now on your phone via. Device i phone you can find it ok so right now when you search for the new moji there is the equivalent to ok ok it is being used ok for a very lonesome it wasnt a couple years ago where it was some kind of troll thing happening on the internet there it became so on those because the Mainstream Media picked it up and i think the whole purpose of trolling campaign was to trick the Mainstream Media into doing it and of course now we hear that the a. D. L. Is looking for here is not to label every single thing that we do say or or. Or you know we communicate what they are to specifically doing is trying to inform you know people that there are certain symbols that seem innocuous but that are currently being used to. Actually incite violence and crime and you know fundamentalists political ideas that put this democracy in jeopardy it is not a symbol it is initiating it people want to use it for whatever you want to use it for ok but to compare it to not see fleg is absurd ok millions. And verses do ok so i think i was not a hate symbol until it was. An indian use a day earlier you know whole can ensure that. Russian embassy in the u. S. Has sent a note of protest to the state department over the detention and questioning of a russian lawmaker in new york city r. T. Saskia taylor has more. The Russian Foreign ministry reported on sunday that a member of the Russian Parliament in got was detained at the airport after flying into new york this week she described how she was led to a separate room while documents were taken away from her and how for around an hour she was questioned by an f. B. I. Agent with the questions being described by the Russian Ambassador to the u. S. Some is unclear others as unacceptable what makes this quite curious is that after this interaction the f. B. I. Agent suggested that he and you washable go to a more informal setting a coffee shop in fact seemingly to continue the conversation now you must have a coordinator for relations with the u. S. Congress and she was actually flying in her professional capacity on a visit to the 4 for us somewhat ironically given it is a conference thats dedicated to improving dialogue between russia and the u. S. In moscow t
