Vulnerable children at risk to. Criminal schemes been revealed helping foreigners illegally. Live from moscow thanks for joining us and. Welcome to the program. In baghdad a convoy belonging to iran backed militia has come under attack reportedly killing 6 a u. S. Led Coalition Spokesperson has tweeted that the u. S. Did not conduct the strike thats just a day off to washington admitted killing irans top general same sort of money as for the latest assault the voice of the Popular Mobilization forces claim the vehicles were medical and were not carrying the groups leaders or the Popular Mobilization force. This is an a rocky state sponsored Umbrella Organization comprised of around 40 muslim militias mostly shia its known for playing a major role in the campaign to liberate the country from eisel several of its commanders were killed during fridays attack about strike killed 10 including irans most senior military commander general money was conducted on the direct orders of donald trump the us president has defended the assassination saying it was necessary to prevent war in the middle east but it sparked widespread fury across iraq. Solemn 80 has been perpetrating acts of terror to destabilize the middle east for the last 20 years what the United States did yesterday should have been done long ago we took action leslye to stop a war we did not take action to start a war this. This was an obvious terrorist move a move that entirely shouted cowardice in every respect we will not fall for the propaganda and blackmail by the americans in whatever manner and when ever we deem appropriate we will give the proper response to the killing of irans general solomonic sparked protests across several middle Eastern Countries and further afield as well members of indias kashmiris Shia Community marched with images of solomonic shouting anti american slogans in pakistan protest as a wrap coffins with the u. S. Flag and set them on fire and of course in iran itself 3 days of mourning are underway thousands of turnout in cities nationwide to all of the general. U. S. Leadership has been saying on almost every platform they can find that they are working to deescalate tensions with the Islamic Republic of iran that was the time to take this action so that we could disrupt this plot deter further aggression from qassam salami in the Iranian Regime as well as to attempt to deescalate the situation its not an easy case to make killing the countrys 2nd most powerful person most well known military leader and commander of the elite could force of the revolutionary guards doesnt look like deescalation however washington insists its actions were a defensive measure at the direction of the president the us military has taken decisive defensive action to protect u. S. Personnel abroad to by killing costume stolen money the strike was aimed at deterring future iranian attack plans the iranians are already promising revenge for the Supreme NationalSecurity Council of iran held an emergency meeting on friday and announced that they had made difficult decisions at the right time and place the vengeance will be extracted its not through aggression by the us i mean they should they should expect anything as it is a lot of this this aggression the International Community is now gripped by fear that we could be on the brink of war there is no justification under International Law and moral law our constitution is just aggravation and the fact that were there in a way as a guest and have an embassy there weve never had been given any authority to do what we did i think its morally wrong and if theyre doing this to make us safer they said that we had they had to do this to make americans say complete nonsense i feel less safe because there will be retaliation and expansion and who knows what is going to lead to. Washington says its an ally of the iraq again. Government and its working in iraqs best interest however baghdad is completely under happy with this move the assassination of an Iraqi Military commander is an aggression on iraq as a State Government and people its a flagrant violation of iraqs sovereignty and dangerous escalation that triggers a destructive war in iraq the region and the world it violates the conditions authorizing the presence of u. S. Troops on iraqi soil the iraqis dont consider this to be a particularly friendly gesture what does she want to restart the civil war again among the shia who dont want this to happen what has happened is a blatant violation of iraqi sovereignty the fact that hes a high state official and a government that were not at war with weve crossed the rubicon not only in tehran but in moscow beijing pyongyang caracas they all have to sit there and say to themselves all right the americans now feel entitled to kill anybody and our government because of what over what disagreements over syria or whatever else. The International Response has been vocal china says it is concerned turkey is angry and syria accused the United States of spreading instability its a pity to see. The great but what if the United States used. To kid somebody. The way gangs do it but not everyone agrees though israel says Job Well Done president roh deserves all the credit for acting swiftly forcefully decisively israel sternes with the United States in this just struggle for its Peace Security and selfdefense americas nato allies are not thrilled at all we have woken up to more dangerous world the us action did not make it any easier to reduce tensions we had all parties to deescalate for the conflict is in none of our interests. It didnt exactly go over well at home either American Media has accurate all sorts of allegations about solid money most americans had never heard of before saying he is the new face of terrorism and evil but democrats say that trump is rushing the country to war without congressional approval the risk of a much longer military engagement in the middle east is acute and immediate. This action may well have brought our nation closer to another endless war exactly the kind of endless war the president promised he would not drag us into now donald trump is defending is he says he saved lives and that hes protecting the country however in some of his responses hes actually said that solomonic should have been killed years ago so why now is perhaps donald trump trying to play the card of being a National Savior in the lead up to an election i dont foresee the rain ians making a rash choice because they understand the neo cons who are behind policy and trump himself on iran they dont want anything more than to have iran do a very who are high profile strike back the us Propaganda Machine is in high gear demonizing stolen money who 99. 9 percent of americans had never heard of 2 days ago. Worse than hitler killing americans left and right none of this is true none of this is supported by facts but the Propaganda Machine is on high high high alert and americans are being prepared for another war so i dont see the iranians taking the bait. The Senior British Police chief says levels of Child Cruelty exploitation in the country of back the levels not seen in more than a century sean sawyer who leads britains modern slavery policing efforts blames austerity as one major factor and also drug gangs that are the driving force for these children they almost back to victorian times and to being criminally exploited these kids looking for family and security for understandable reasons of austerity stay Youth Services have been vacated this gap of youth provision between the school and family is the void of the exploited filling the Home Office Figures say that in england alone there were more than 18 in hall 1000 suspected child victims in the past year thats an increase of more than 73 percent in the previous year. Which of course the bill sawyer also pointed the finger at government cuts to use services the home office though is insisting its doing all it can to stop short of exploitation shell phoenix from the anti Discrimination Group the black child a journalist says its almost impossible for youngsters to escape one of their drugs into a cycle of criminality. These children a lot of people fail to see them as the victims of whats going on and then they become criminalized and once you become criminalized at such a young age its almost impossible to get yourself back on track a lot of these young people that we find as part of these drug cat gangs as theyre called have been permanently excluded have been rejected from society so i think we need to go back a few steps and even jilt deal with our young people from a primary age level because as they get into secondary school which i can guarantee when they go back next week my phone we ring in constantly with children being kicked out of school for have a natural hair not having the right tie on or maybe their shoes so if we start stop doing this you know sledgehammer approach to what we are talking about as children then they wouldnt find themselves in these gangs in the 1st place but no ones actually listening or doing any think about the exclusion matter and the high rates and the issues that we have with young people in the care system as well who if there was another study done youd actually find that majority of these children have come through the care system are actually being exploited also in the sexual airiness in areas as well as just being on gangs and you know getting involved in county lines which a lot of them dont actually know what theyre doing so it is a much Bigger Picture its not as simple as whats been said. Warring revelations about Vulnerable Children in armenia to where its been discovered that for over 20 years a criminal network forced mothers to give up their newborns against their will so they could be sold abroad for adoption boarding next years maria for national. This is a story with many children involved but it is not one of these typical happy ending tales a team might expect to hear during Holiday Season an investigation is on to go in now in armenia into an alleged black market Adoption Network believed to have been operating for years to citizens of the republic of armenia using their contacts in one of the republican obstetrical institutions organized the adoption of more than 3 dozen children more than 30 babies to italy and there were also cases of adoption by u. S. Couples one of the victims has been trying to achieve justice for almost 2 decades already her name is susanna she says 20 years ago doctors pressured her to give up her daughter stella threatening to report her case of a 16 year old mother to police and her father she signed papers refusing her rights. I held my baby in my arms after he was born i stayed in the hospital for another 2 days or so but i didnt see him ever again they told me that he was born prematurely and didnt survive i was given some peoples to sign but i was too weak to understand what i was signing in december they are mean and authorities detained the countrys chief ops attrition who says on the accuses of threatening her and other officials as part of the probe it does make a better man was released several days later due to lack of evidence its for public outrage but. A lawyer who has represented susanna since 2013 has his explanation for 7 long years we were shouting about it at every corner this is a mafia that is stronger and more powerful than the one controlling drug traffic i can say there were relatives of the rulers involved. In 2017 Human Rights Watch released a 102 page report titled when will i get to go home documenting thousands of cases of children in armenia needlessly often forcefully isolated separated from their families and placed to institutions more than 90 percent of them have at least one living parent and said the International Ngo then tried to draw attention to disturb in inaction by authorities the government of armenia has made some bold commitments to reduce the number of children in institutions but needs to make sure those promises backed by serious sustained action 2 years later last september the authorities noticed that 4 times as many children went to foreigners rather than to locals and started investigation all adoptions have since been suspended in armenia which might be a good news though changes little for those who believe their kids were wrongfully given away years ago but. There must be a legal solution so that we could do validate they dont shoot of the child its about selling children i will do everything i will not back down there must be a fair trial.

When else should seem wrong. But. Just dont call. Me. Yet to ship out just to come at it. And it again it was betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. This idea as you point out the anecdotally cheney fired all the cia agents in the field because they were too sympathetic to the locals and he felt that was a liability in the major media spheres of washington d. C. They dont want those reporters those stars to rub elbows in the great unwashed of the flyover states because they may become sympathetic to the working class they may become sympathetic to the to the disenfranchised.
