Things against trump today but the thing thats different here in manila today it seems almost more of like a turn block party.

Should the news be more than just hours of bickering and giving 30 minutes ill take you off the low. Im chris hedges the corporate coup detat has destroyed our Democratic Institutions the commercial media is burlesque part of the reality show president s expose the trivial lives seen on contact question more. While much of the western world has been paying attention to the civil unrest and protest over the death of george floyd across the globe American Forces just conducted 2 air strikes on taliban fighters in afghanistan casualty figures from that not get know but at least 10 Afghan Security forces were killed early this morning in an ambush in southern savile province the taliban is suspected but have not yet claimed responsibility so joining us to expand former pentagon official mike maloof and former u. K. M. P. George Galloway Mike id like to start with you 1st can you give us a summary of whats been happening in afghanistan lately that led us up to these airstrikes. Where there are still peace discussions going on there are still look scrabble within the Afghan Government on the exchange of prisoners and taliban has promised to continue their. Attacks on Afghan Forces but theyre not attacking nato Coalition Forces but the United States does to give aerial support. To Taliban Forces which were apparently cornered at an intersection and under heavy attack by taliban in that case they did come to there so there are systems but there has not but in the meantime the United States is continuing to withdraw u. S. Forces from afghanistan and that level probably will diminish as the as they approach a better settlement theyre still trying to get the Afghan Government and the taliban. Representatives to come together and Start Talking but thats not going so well and george a lot of anti. War activists are really angry about these recent strikes because they believe many civilians were hit while we dont have confirmation on the casualties as i just mentioned is it unfair for some people to claim that the d. O. D. Cant simultaneously assist with handling these these National Protests that were having here stateside as well as continuing their fight in afghanistan. Well i mean this is a 20 year war no almost. You know you talked about d. Day. The 2nd world war lasted 6 years so this war has already lasted well over 3 times the length of time the 2nd world war did has achieved precisely nothing no my feeling is that donald trump would very much like to get out of there and its being stymied by an Afghan Government that could scarcely be called a government at all if it were left entirely to its own devices that would last 5 minutes or so i think its about time the drum told the socalled Afghan Government hes leaving. They better make their d dispensations now rather than later because theyll never be in a stronger position as they are today these strikes are deadly the taliban are not targeting nato forces but need 2 forces are targeting them and in those circumstances the whole cease fire part of familiar could all come tumbling down and then wed be right back in maybe for another decade yeah this continues to go on and mike this this one was the 1st major escalation of violence since the pas during ramadan but why not use that temporary ceasefire as a means to. Further the peace talks with the taliban. Well i think they i think theyre trying to its it depends upon the talibans willingness to come together with the with the government which it doesnt recognize i think the United States plans to continue its withdrawal and i think the United States also seoul and the fact that it was important to exercise its vigilance and its military might as a show that in spite of the internal problems of the United States its military remains ready and i think thats also a message believe it or not to iran and also to china so i think that these are their telegraphing something here that theyre not letting down their gardens notwithstanding the internal problems that the United States is experiencing at this point and can you expand a little bit on one of the points that georgia made about the Afghan Governments weakness here because they are not invited to those talks between the u. S. And other surrounding tribes and the taliban the official Afghan Government is is basically useless there well it is and the problem is a just somehow came to some temporary accommodation between abdulla doing. And the president himself over who was going to actually be the president i mean theres and this is still a lot of corruption there and my my sources within the Intel Community tell me that if as george points out United States were to pull out the the government probably would last a week. And george President Trump eve you touched on this just a moment ago we know he actually wants to go further with troop drawdowns in afghanistan do you think that the d. O. D. s now at odds with the president on how to move forward in the middle east especially given general mattis his recent comments about the president do you think thats a reflection of how the military is not on the same page as the president. Well michael no betar but my sense from here is the president s instincts are out of this he promised to do in the run up to the election 4 years ago to withdraw america from the see these points less than a pot of lacey slash military engagements abroad which are also fruitless they come to nothing all 20 years of war has been achieved enough got us done digital in syria distort in libya and of course the yemen is something nobody wants to talk about anymore so hideous is the. No i noticed the president drum sancta around today 1st time ive seen no one to thank and iran in the same sentence in one of his tweets again i say i may be wrong and i may be doing him too much of a favor but i think from would like to get these wars the people whose careers their medals the parent dns their wages and of course the military Industrial Complex whose droplets depend on and bless wars around the world absolutely are not so keen on ending the wars mike i own with i would like to give you the last word on that same topic i mean are as the d. O. D. s on a different page than the president with the strip drawdown what to do in the middle east specifically finally finishing up in afghanistan. No i think the military is. Going to maintain its readiness and i think that they will they still recognize donald trump as the commander in chief not withstanding the little brouhaha that occurred earlier this week between defense secretary and former secretary mattis but the reality is i mean today for example as we speak the president has Just Announced that hes going to be withdrawing 9500 troops from germany of all places thats going to have some interesting repercussions for the for nato readiness if you will we definitely see and and of course i think what will happen is that once again all of this will be pivoting more toward asia and were seeing this more were seeing in the that the United States is now holding exercises with japan and and thats going to continue that way to work were aimed at china now ok well leave it right there George Galloway mike maloof both appreciate your insight thank you. Sure. Code 19 continues to spread worldwide numbers continuing to grow cases now topping 6600000 globally with about 391000 reported deaths the u. S. Still leading the way with the most confirmed cases now followed by brazil and russia taking a closer look at this country we have about 1800000 cases here and 108000 deaths. And the medical journal lance set has retracted a large study that raised concerns about. The reason they cite potential flaws in the Research Data the initial study found thousands of coded 1000 patients who took the drug had a higher mortality rate and increased risk for heart problems the results of the study led several governments to ban the use of the antimalaria drug despite President Trump saying that it works.
