P. Andrey catch now captures and to center stage and accuse biden of making a pretty penny from his dealings in ukraine and with one company in particular mission it was conspiracy this was the transfer of the barisan groups funds for lobbying activities as investigators believe personally to judge i didnt through the law being Company Funds the amount of 900000. 00 were transferred to the Us Based Company Rosemont Seneca partners which according to open sources in particular the New York Times is if. Payment reference was payment for Consultative Services just a quick intro to the reason a group as one of the largest Natural Gas Companies coincidentally or not hunted by tim was on its board of directors for almost 5 years a job he was entirely qualified for having no background in the Energy Sector many experience of ukraine but his father was the obama administrations point man for ukraine so why not any way to capture the published documents which show that over many years the brits macgruber almost 1000000. 00 to a Company Called Rosemont Seneca partners before anyone cries foul and says photoshop spin up to its old tricks the money transfers can be seen black and white in a federal court fall from an unrelated new york lawsuit theres nothing concrete to suggest that biden sr has been sconce in a big leather chair at Rosemont Seneca but lets just rewind a few years. The year is 2009 joe biden is riding high hes Vice President but poor old hunt is not doing so well his Cryptocurrency Fund is going through a rough patch off to one of its key people and stanford is court red handed and charged with forward to the tune of a tidy sum the indictment alleges that stanford in his codefendants engaged in a scheme to defraud investors who purchased approximately 7000000000. 00 mr tickets of deposit c. D. s administered by the Stanford International bank ltd so hard to decide to see green a posture has and sets up a new Company Rosemont partners he got sutton Christopher Hines on board who conveniently happens to be the steps on a future secretary of state john kerry its a small world of people who couldnt cash in on their family name residence anika advertised itself as a consultancy that just wanted to help small and middle sized companies expand not just across the u. S. But into foreign markets to. The year is now 2010 and response on it has partnered with a little for the Stilton Group and continuing his good company hunt to chooses as his partner james bulger the nephew of new tourists u. S. Gangster Whitey Bulger come out of fighting gruesome and in prison just last year so since a tional was his life he even got a movie based on it. When you see the movie. So here we have this happy trio the piece on the future secretary of state steps on and the nephew of a mob boss flying around the wall trying to get money from investors. But he is now 20 thought teen and joe bidens on an official visit to china. And in photos from the trip hunters by his side just a regular full of the song trip except 2 weeks later and his buddies signed off a 1000000000. 00 investment contract from china is the wall just full of coincidences. The year is now 2018 and hunt is again in a bit of a pickle as cofounder of rosemont sanuk up owen fellow director of the Barista Group is charged with security fraud its funny how many bad apples hunter has been surrounded by like i said every t. V. Show has got big personalities and big revelations and it would seem a very tangled web of characters. But with joe bidens 2020 president ial campaign hit by control to see another democrat is gaining momentum the senate is a bit more and shes also attracting more scrutiny as a result. Of her bid to win over the vote. Elizabeth warren the current front runner among democrats contending for the 2020 nomination says that she has been the victim of an injustice she says that back when she was 22 years old she lost a teaching job because she got pregnant when i was visibly pregnant about 6 months along. The principal called me and. That he wished me luck. Hed be more comfortable having someone else now back in 2008 she was telling the story a little bit differently you actually pursued that career i did that for you here. And thin that song. I actually didnt have the education courses so i was on an emergency certificate it was called and i went back. To graduate school and took a couple of courses in education but in 2019 it looks like she decided playing the victim card would get her a little bit farther just like her claim to be native american which helped her get into Harvard University the Democratic Candidates absolutely believe that voters need a victim mentality she needs to be authentic with voters more than being a victim to voters it appears that she was never actually fired for being pregnant in fact there is a Resignation Letter that she apparently turned in at one point and heres another president ial candidate hes chosen a different role as ive stated strongly before and just to reiterate if turkey does anything that ive had my grazing on mash wisdom considered to be off limits i will be destroying and a brooch or a the economy over ive done before now donald trump can certainly play the victim when it comes to impeachment inquiries and media bias however hes also clear on other things hes big hes rich and he almost always gets his way for them in trouble also considers himself a victim he refers to the witch hunt against him especially in the russia collusion case now with the impeachment he refers to himself as being the victim of one of the biggest hoaxes in u. S. History and a witch hunt so he uses the victim term in many cases but then he will flip that on its head and suddenly talks about how he has this unmatched unparalleled wisdom Many Americans dont like the idea of being the victim they like the idea of being a victim of being stronger or being a winner as opposed to somebody whos been put down so different camps and different means of appealing to your voters democrats seem to seek sympathy by showing ways they have been mistreated 50 years ago this month modern family moved into the town i grew up in. To be denied because of the color of their skin it was tied to distance with white activists you know there was a little girl and california who was part of the 2nd class to integrate her Public School and she was bused to School Every Day and. The little girl was me in each generation in my family starting with my growth my grandmother who came in 1902 from mexico as an orphan. We found out that its not enough in america to just work hard and for your family to work hard not trumps tone at all lets review how the donald presents himself i am the one im a very stable genius im so young i cant believe it im the youngest person i have a young vibrant. I would give myself a plus now to be fair donald trump is not facing any serious primary contenders hes got the republican nomination pretty much in the bag but it is interesting to compare the 2 different approaches the victim mentality is not the Winning Strategy when it comes to a general election in the primary system in the United States you are actually playing to only about 2 to 3 percent of the electorate in order to win a primary when you get into the general election and now youre facing all voters its a very different mentality i think the general sentiment of americans is to be competent to be strong to not be a victim to be a winner perhaps its just a different psychology if youre a republican you want someone who is strong undefeated and will come into office in order to make America Great again and if youre a democrat you want someone who has suffered and understands what you have been through and when they get into office theyll help level the Playing Field now theres admirable aspects to both approaches but the gap between them is pretty staggering kaleb mopp and artsy new york. To pulling u. S. Troops out of Northern Syria and essentially clearing the way for the Turkish Military operation targeting kitty fighters President Donald Trump has offered to mediate between the 2 sides so what we have is really 2 choices you have the choice of bringing in the military and defeating everybody again or you have the choice of but actually doing some very strong things to turkey so that they take it a little bit easy on really competition that is how do they get big fairly or we can mediate i hope we can mediate. Well the 1st phase of the Turkish Operation began with air strikes on the to kurdish controlled border towns the kurds have ordered a general mobilization along the border with turkey vowing to confront the attack and they call to washingtons troops with through all of the trial the International Community is condemned. And create in turn has warned that it will send millions of Syrian Refugees currently into to europe if he calls it operation and invasion middle east analyst Alexandra Bruno says they may not benefit from its current operation against the kurds most of turks and the kurds are saying or suggesting that theyve been betrayed the kurds have been betrayed many times and this is the standard policy of the west in fact but its not just the kurds were betrayed this is been the western policy in the middle east for a long time there have always been this unity between this president and his own Republican Party particularly on issues regarding the middle east and u. S. Involvement but we also talk with yassin hes an m. P. For the turkish justice and Development Party and he condemns americas treatment of the kurds. Turkey did not break any rules or norms of nato and it is the United States which is breaking the rules this is why we have to ask the question about the us and that alliance of friendship this alliance pledges to protect any of its members if they are in danger and today turkey is in danger but we dont see the us cooperating with us their ally on the contrary they are part of the threat it is the us who is breaking the rules of the Alliance Turkey maintains its position and if all the members of nato agree with this violation everyone will be infringing the rights of other members of the blog i dont even want to talk about it. Meanwhile the u. S. Senator Lindsey Graham this land the decision to withdraw u. S. Troops Northern Syria calling it the biggest blunder of presidency and even suggested to the result could be worse than the vietnam war when trump has defended the move by saying the kurds did not help the u. S. During world war 2 did warn however that turkeys offensive could lead to ice or prisoners escaping and heading to europe. Just gaping holes in the thread where well theyre going to be escaping to europe thats where they want to go they want to go back to their homes but europe didnt want him from us we could have given a chance they could have had trials i could have done whatever they wanted but as usual its not reciprocal you know my favorite word reciprocal there is the risk of coming to europe theres a risk theyll go into syria proper will attempt to or into iraq or into many other places as long as. Everything was beginning to calm down in syria the war was essentially over more or less and now this is all kicked off again the timing is very interesting mr guns claims very interesting the fact that mr trump makes all of these claims about you know were going to step aside and this is the stupidity that hes saying that didnt help us in world war 2 i mean whats world war 2 got to do with the price of fish its very strange what trump says ultimately what everyone is doing what nato is doing all the nato countries are doing is essentially rekindling the war in syria this all needs to stop and i think the only people the only countries that have got the the morality and the decency and the honor to do it is russia and iran and i really hope they do do something you watch not say were going to take a quick break no news from us. The brain does not. In the way the muscles. See when you are in labor trying to. Cut the brain you damage it in a way that becomes a insatiably of the brain is integrated to send delegates if you can damage some bones in the brain you can kill the patient does by damaging 12 millimeters of brain tissue. Show the same wrong. But old clothes just dont all. Get to shape out just to become educated and in gains from an equals betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart. Just to look for common ground. Oh again now from london to paris and new york the Environmental Action Group Extinction Rebellion has been rallying in a series of coordinated protests since monday more than a 1000 people have been arrested in the u. K. Alone well x. Are as its also known was established in london and describes itself as a decent Rise Movement pursuing its aims through grassroots activism it claims to have a presence in 72. 00 countries and shot to fame over the last year by staging a number of protests and the giants appear to be taking note too they are spending millions on advertising highlighting their green initiatives but a new report does claim that they are being disingenuous as they are also lobbying against tougher climate regulations moreover another report by greenpeace to suggest that initiatives by big firms to protect the environment while looking good fail to be effective Charlie Pinsky has been. Going green is a big business in an age of protests like Extinction Rebellion Companies Want to show that they are making a contribution to save the planet whether that spotty reducing the use of plastic all spending money or campaigns to let you know they are dedicated to the future but according to a report by greenpeace they may actually be deceiving you to resolve the global plastic pollution crisis some of the Worlds Largest companies have started to admit that they need to act but closer scrutiny shows that were mostly continuing on the same track by investing in full Solutions Take the whole. Issue with teaching Single Use Plastics Global Brands like dalton starbucks got on board 40 quickly when it came to ditching Plastic Straws the solution to use paper ones that was met with the right choice applause because paper can easily be recycled right wrong not only cold stores be recycled greenpeace points out a more fatal flaw there is no way the planet can sustain additional demand from companies attempting to substitute this single use Plastic Packaging with paper or cardboard another solution to conventional Single Use Plastics made from fossil fuels is to use by you based plastics these have been snapped up by companies such as cocacola pepsi co and nestle no bio based is a very clever term because it probably makes you think that the product is degradable and well yes some boyo based plastics should be able to break down however when added to learn to fill the conditions are rarely favorable to that actually happening but there isnt even bigger problem the majority of bio based plastic is derived from agricultural crops which compete with fruit crops threatening Food Security globally the production of Agricultural Commodities is the leading cause of deforestation and habitat destruction ok so what about recycling were all being encouraged to do that except as weve recently learned most of all recycling ends up being sent to countries in Southeast Asia where its routinely being dumped thats if it even leaves your home country in the 1st place u. K. Waste management before was recently fined 350000 pounds for trying to ship household rubbish to china that was labeled as being the waste paper for recycling when in fact sanitary towels nappies and condoms were all found a wrapped up in. Bails in the container and studies show that when it comes to plastic more than 90 percent of the worlds plastic remains recycled greenpeace says its time to declare peak plastic and move towards 0 waste easy to say clearly much more difficult to do especially when almost all the products that we use come readily wrapped in 12 sometimes 3 layers of plastic or paper others say the only real solution is for governments to take action and to ban single use packaging but as youve seen exchanging one thing for another may only be shifting the problem. Artie paris professor of sociology frank furedi says that campaigns against plastic bags to create a good impression but often dont tell the whole story. I think theres a lot of. Really red covering where companies that turned out you know making a major contribution to solving our mental problems a lot of the campaigns against plastic bags are really what creating the impression that we do something good. It seems to be that you know is said oh well you know. Can we ought to be thinking of birth developing technologies and they will bring different kinds of materials that can do what we all will be done before. And i think youll find that when you when you look at all the different recycling schemes going to be initiated a lot of them look good on paper but when you actually find out the benefits in terms of cutting Carbon Emissions goes over syria larry g. Its often very elusive and theres very little to do games from it. 5 people have been killed in more than a week of unrest over government to stare at him asians in ecuador scapel among the demonstrators were thousands of Indigenous People one of their leaders condemned president lenin there a nice decision to cut fuel subsidies is part of the loan deal with the International Monetary fund. With we were with them from ecuador we have a murderous government against its people we have a government that has given itself its soul and blood to the International Monetary fund was a protest turned ugly with violent clashes roadblocks and also disruption to the countrys oil output in the capital k. Tel a funeral was held for one of the Indigenous Leaders killed to join the protests on wednesday from there our correspondent Nicholas Odonovan sent this report. This is ground 03 digits resistance thousands and thousands of people came to all the bells in the selecting the building behind me so they can put up a big building where theyve also kidnapped a policeman one of those officers came on stage to say that he was being treated well but the government was clear that any negotiations to carry on these offices have to be released the Indigenous People on the other hand have their own conditions to come to the table they want both the minister of defense and the interior minister to resign and theyre also still pushing for fuel subsidies to be back in place also in ecuador who have arrested over 750 people in a week of unrest and dozens of Police Officers have been injured also hundreds of protesters have suffered injuries during these violent clashes so the situation here nick would always build tension in the negotiations between the government and the digital speed still blocked or still far from being the result because of those politics. Now President Donald Trump has refused to hand over a u. S. Diplomats wife to the despite a request from the british Prime Minister police want to question the woman after a teenager was killed in a Road Accident commenting on the case though trump pointed out that americans dont find it difficult driving in the u. K. I was telling boris we have a lot of americans that you know they side on on the fact that you know you have 2 wonderful parents that lost this urn. And the woman was driving on the wrong side of the road and that can happen you know those are the opposite roads that happened i wont say it ever happened to me but it did when you get used to driving on our system and then youre all of a sudden the other system where youre driving it happens have to be careful very careful. Suspected of hitting in killing Harry Dunn Ma driving on the wrong side of the road she cooperated with u. K. Police but then fled to the u. S. Claiming diplomatic immunity Prime Minister Boris Johnson strongly objected to her use of this legal instrument. Do you want think that it can be right to use the process of diplomatic immunity for this type of purpose and i hope that and secured us will come back and will engage properly with the process is of more was there carried out in this country or some reports to suggest theres a coup this is husband was actually an Intelligence Officer rather than a diplomat casting doubt on their entitlement to immunity we asked people in london what they think about from response of the case. Selfishness well i wonder if we would be so. Dismissive. Anybody in position of power like he is she making such for about something and it also makes it seem very personal terms of his own personal view is that he doesnt really care if youve killed someone then you know this thats beyond diplomatic immunity you have to face the law even because it looks like it wasnt even a promise or. Really strange i mean this is an Intelligence Officer he might know diplomat so its a bit. Is a bit of a stretch isnt it people who come to this country should have to live on trial laws when they come out so no they should i remove diplomatic immunity and face consequences i think she should he should have made her come back we should come back diplomatic immunity should be really looked at because a whole load of offenses that. Collusion of corruption of both governments British Government has collapsed problem collusion and corporate governance. And thats how the news is looking you want company this morning dont forget if you get the chance have a look at our website plenty of stories there. All. On this edition of crosstalk we demystify serious kurds almost all of the criticism launched against syria policy is not rooted in facts actually criticism is driven by false narratives and the inability to admit that International Proxy War to overthrow the damascus government has failed the sooner all american troops leave syria the better for syria and the beach. For her so. Clear. Hello welcome to sophie cove fish and aries me Sophie Shevardnadze and love hate our greatest ideas are born in our bodies one of the most fascinating and complex organ today i speak to a man who literally looks into and works with that the human brain. Dr henry marsh one of the worlds top surgeons. Dr henry marsh great pleasure to be here with you and your wonder your lovely home thanks for having us so i had all of the questions 1st of all i know that youve set Something Like in medicine in general. You can never really be too certain i mean if you go to a general practitioner ok she persuades you a drug and lets see maybe it worsen if it doesnt then you try another drug but was you know. Couldnt try it wouldnt quite work that way what it was doctors we deal in probabilities nothing is ever certain with any as a surgeon an office is a mere assertion was tied to is not representative of all events and. When you if you recommend surgery to somebody what youre saying is well the probability of the operation doing more good than all is a bit better than the probability of you coming to home with you doing to the operation but these are probabilities so lets say i say well theres a 95 percent or chance in the operational be successful removing a difficult brain tumor which is what i specialized in doing and the 5 percent chance youll die and then the patient dies because of the operation and the family will be very cross theyll say you said there was a 95 percent chance of success and i said yes but i said there was a 5 percent chose disaster zone with the way the full cost and they were wrong because all of the probabilities but from the patients point of view as patients and ive been a patient myself and my own son had a brain tumor we want certainty we want to know what will happen to me not a 95
