A strategic natural gas pipeline dubbed the power of siberia. Community international with me Daniel Hawkins just going to live and i am here in moscow thanks for joining us on the program and we start in the u. K. Where dozens of people convicted of terrorist offenses who were released early on license will now have their cases reviewed thats according to Prime MinisterBoris Johnson comes after it was revealed that the suspect in fridays London Bridge attack had himself been released. Early or in the same he was shot out and there was no in this nothing to do with how there was nothing to do with how many legally sames legally there. Friday 28 year old was one of carnage killed 2 and injured 3 others before being shot dead by police in 2012 he was jailed for plotting to bomb the London Stock Exchange according to some reports he also wanted to target the home of Boris Johnson who was serving as a lot of merit the time the attacker was released a year ago and took part in a deed Radicalization Programme for the u. K. General election in full swing the question of Early Release has entered the debate. These people darren should never ever be let out of prison unless were absolutely convinced they do not have the jihadi virus people dont want history lessons after this terrorist atrocity what people want is to put victims 1st and keeping communities safe 1st and if he had been sentenced under our rules he would still be in jail today no terrorist should be released without it being properly if asked whether or not they still pose a risk to the public scotland we have indeed automatic Early Release for prisoners sentenced to more than 4 years in prison and while the Prime Minister blames labor for introducing the Early Release scheme the labor blames conservative budget cuts for failing to implement it properly debated the issue raised by Early Release. Since september the 11th weve released 500 terrorists whove committed acts of terrorism in the u. K. That these 2 men a and clearly we need to toughen up our laws but at the end youve got to remember that these people are quite quite unusual i whilst we need to control them we also need to be very clear that we cannot infringe on civil liberties. Because they are so important because these post i see this post liberal post in lighten if you like terror attacks happening on home soil theyve often come home grown terrorists radicals criminals whatever you like to call them but there have been institutional failures this. State Security Apparatus can do better should do better and isnt doing better and we have to ask questions why i remember the police the Security Services the courts are attempting to prevent these violent terrorists from attack in this country the question here is what are we doing about those people who are involved in terrorist organizations but have not yet committed serious terrorist offenses i say membership of any terrorist organization should have a life imprisonment or if that would resolve the what do you mean member should know even know who carries a good person like me how hard are terrorism friends down going on there you know be under its own country i dont have a terrorist organization ive got no problem on terrorism the hard line thing to saying like throw away the key or terrorism should terrorists go to prison forever thats absolutely fine you know id even open up a dialogue on is Capital Punishment appropriate some people in some cases ok however what we have to do is ply apply fairly across the board if we are allowing entrapment cases where people are sent to syria and then they come back we reduce their citizenship we transduced their rights you talk about civil rights and human rights what about the Bethnal Green schools about 14 or 15 were transported to syria if you join a Terror Organization we have to find out why we have to tackle these issues properly were talking about people going to syria or going to Training Camps in pakistan people who are engaging in acts of terror whether that be fund raising where that be terrorist training or whether it be actual acts of terrorism in terms of violence those sorts of people should no more be treated reasonably than somebody who turns around and says i only murdered this woman because it was a crime of passion the law needs to change membership of terrorist organizations to hold a maximum penalty of life in prison and then judges can choose whether that much is appropriate on a case by case basis that to me seems sensible. To us journalists claims his former boss and friend Hillary Clinton distance herself from him because he planned to investigate the now disgraced hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein. Its remarkable how quickly even people with a long relationship with you will turn if you threaten the centers of power or the sources of funding around them ultimately there are a lot of people out there who operate in that way theyre beholden to powerful interests and if you go up against those interests you become radioactive very quickly rohan farrow worked for years as clinton the special advisor since 2011 when she was us secretary of state Harvey Weinstein meanwhile donated tens of thousands of dollars the clintons 26000. 00 president ial campaign before the sexual assaults can lead fold a little quarter looks at how Investigative Journalism generally is becoming harder in the age of big corporate media. Bollywood often portrays investigative journalists as knights in shining armor risking it all to protect the truth is that legal what is it is that we do it for a living. We dont. Leave the country. Doing my job you never want to. Hear because i think youre going to tell this story were going to tell it right and reality though snooping around the lives of influential people could have serious repercussions it could land you in trouble even if were talking about hollywood royalty like ronan farrow he was essential to the new yorkers 2017 investigation into rape allegations against Harvey Weinstein the same one that received the Pulitzer Prize and through the me too movement into the mainstream before his journalism career farrow worked as a lawyer at one point serving under the then secretary of state Hillary Clinton as her advisor for global youth issues they made quite the team that is until farah began digging into weinsteins dirty laundry did you feel pressure from Hillary Clinton on and her staff raised concerns about the fact that i was working on this story about one of her most significant donors that they had bungler of hollywood money not to mention pharaohs original collaborator and b c refused to publish the weinstein revelations all together but this isnt even the only major story that the Mainstream Media big wigs have tried to smother a. B. C. Anchor amy roebuck recently went public about her investigation into geoffrey epsteins pedophile operation which was killed by the network 3 years ago it was unbelievable what we had we had everything. I tried for 3 years to get it on to no avail and now its coming out and i think well of revelations what we had it was unreal there were going back to you know. Get. Your shit so is that it have the rich and powerful become so strong. That Investigative Journalism has no place in the 21st century you probably cant reach. You know 1020000000 people with investigative stories that really attack it wealthy and powerful when you do Investigative Journalism which i do for a career and a living and you bump up against the rich and powerful especially if if your publisher is friendly with those who are rich and powerful you. You know you pay a price you either are taken off the beat and given Something Else to do like write a bit you areas or you are you know in the worst case youre fired. Or youre sort of let know that you know your career is not going anywhere there so you should look elsewhere but just to remind it will have plenty of stories on all sides including the submarine fleet getting new weapons upright with a new jasc Cruise Missile going into mass production to get the lowdown on that hes a naval presence. Power of siberia gas pipeline is being launched today president. Charles russian gas thoughts pumping through to feed Chinese Industries took 5 years to be built its been the biggest investment project so far for russian companies. The power of siberia a pipeline running through mountains swamps and on to revers and im fishes project uniting the Northern Hemisphere is 2nd largest gas producer with the wild 2nd largest gas consumer 3000 kilometers of pipe smoking economic unity and friendship between russia and china are launching today. And for china it couldnt be more timely the country has been does an increasing amounts of gas and with its powerhouse status showing no signs of slowing down its a trend that looks set to stick around and its a wonder then that the project has been welcomed with open arms and will usually a major strategic project for Bilateral Energy cooperation it is of great significance to deepening all round corporation between the 2 countries and integrating our interests are pretty pleased at this time of events russia. We are starting the biggest Construction Projects in the world there will be nothing bigger in the sphere for years to come but this is not about breaking records this is an extremely important project for both russia and china but we all know that energy is a sticky topic and theres no pleasing everyone especially when someones been cut out of the deal so who could not so wound up at this particular project you guessed it the Worlds Largest producer and consumer of natural gas the United States wants. Inten is perhaps regretting driving to out cost countries together after waging an economic war with 1. 00 and slapping sanctions on the other the us is ongoing trade with china has driven beijings consumption of americas flagship liquefied natural gas right down a gas like no other party this one has a uniquely american flavor. Increasing export capacity from the freeport l. N. G. Project is critical to spreading freedom gas throughout the world but giving americas allies a diverse in the food it will source of Clean Energy China russias Energy Cooperation is a double whammy for the u. S. Which is also saying some of its all the gas consumers turning that box on it in a matter of months and not the Energy Pipeline route 3 to stop not to europe with the russian gas atom bomb stat and the rate that its american alternative washington must be scratching its head to how some european leaders could schon its uniquely favored gas in favor of closer ties with moscow despite its best efforts to convince them otherwise so were taking germany were rejecting friends were to take both of these countries and numerous other countries go out of the pipeline deal with right where this thing is of the others in the coffers of russia thats one of the concerns the president has about the word stream to why your would voluntarily itself even more to Russian Energy supplies and we make a tough case about ensuring that germany doesnt become dependent on Russian Energy we dont want your Energy Supplies to be depended on platter. As washingtons client seems green a pastas maybe its time for a rethink of its Customer Service after all no one likes being boxed up by an angry cash on no one likes overpaying even if freedom is part of the deal all hong kong buddies to political scientists ders of sharing with all this why this is a win win project for both russia and china. This is significant for both china and russia for china even inside a lot in terms of Energy Security in terms of diversification of use energy salsas from the video ease africa and so on to to the russian siberia it is also significant for russia because it means that it is less and under the repeated market it opens up the china market with tremendous potential and infrastructure built can also be used to supply oil and natural gas to south korea and japan so there is a lot of potential to develop the asia pacific market in support of the development of Russian Far East and eastern siberia in russia. President salva asbestos a formal mining town in canada speak out against the plan to change its name due to its negative connotations that said most stories offer a short break. So what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have its crazy. Let it be an arms race. Theory Dramatic Development the only move slowly and. I dont see it. Will be very critical. To sit down and talk. The program over to germany where a change in leadership in one of the Ruling Coalition parties has left a big question mark hanging over the alliance whose future with new people to the social Democratic Party is expected to tilt further to the left something thats likely to upset their conservative allies. Look at how the long standing status quo in german politics could soon change and who may fit the vacuum. For decades now german voters have always favored parties in the center of the political spectrum radicals no thing to give us a stable moderate government and the c. D. U. And s. P. D. Were always there had been had to meet that demand but some say that this is a little bit too dull well its because it was but not anymore and might belong in the past if the s. P. D. Is leadership is anything to go by meet walter and saskia eskin also known in germany as the anti merkel coalition. The real question is are we able to find on says together to the really important Big Questions and thats far from certain it is the english say with the grand coalition there is no way we can build a future there is no future in it so why is the s. P. D. Leaving its old palls well it seems that the party is going through its own little crisis at the moment and they have been losing one election after the other and the grand coalition seems to be losing its popularity so in a desperate move to win more voters the social democrats are turning to socialism one the one raise minimum wage increase infrastructure and will for spending something straight out of coral marxist book no doubt and the party is going even further left calling for the countrys largest brants to be put under collective ownership and nothing less without great civilization overcoming capitalism is inconceivable the key factor is not the distribution of profits is controlled democratically as the s. P. D. Is moving closer to the red corner the blue or right wing corner seems to be going through its own little struggle made Opposition Party alternative for germany is even more popular now in the Eastern States causing major headaches for the center right c. B. Hugh as the eye if they pushed merkels party into 3rd place in the latest elections in 3rd. The shell shocked to see that he was even forced to sit down and have a dialogue with the very anti Immigration Party that they wants labeled as nazis. Colleagues from the f. T. Faction are just as good as those from any other factions i see the a 50 is a conservative party almost 25 percent of voters gave that ballots to this party and i dont agree with this tendency to betray the all is nazis and the already smelled the blood. There will come a day when we see do you only one option. If you are expecting the alternative for Germany Party to embrace the opt into mainstream politics youll be disappointed even film time during the 2 day congress to slam the centrist cd you and s. P. D. And the new leader that got elected doesnt seem that he wants the change the agenda and why what he this is what got the party votes in the 1st place as the popularity of the centrist party is all fades voters find comfort in the corners of the political spectrum blue or red some say that this is just a temporary reaction while others believe this is a permanent change eventually for r. T. It was folk to do a political analyst writing a roth for us he said that under the newly elected leadership the social democrats could turn the tide and recover from recent electoral setbacks the new leadership may be beginning it casts its free themselves from the grand coalition embrace them and which has harmed a lot in the past years because the Christian Democratic Union has just followed the strategy of eating up more in the lore of the topics of the social democrats if they follow the tendency or streaming themselves from this grand coalition and addressing the war the needs and interests of the voters than i think he could gain 3 in the public. Authorities in a small canadian town want to change its name because it makes people think of cancer they say asbestos thats the current name is also bad for local business the name change discussion has been brewing for some time there is really a negative perception around us pressed us we have lost businesses that dont want to establish themselves here because of the name. Described as the most dangerous town in canada asbestos for more than a 100 years provided half the worlds supply of the mineral from which its name is the arrived before its deadly properties were known the material used to be the heart of the local economy the main Asbestos Mine there closed in 2012. But 1st was used to be widely used as insulation for homes its now been banned in more than 60 countries around the world the tiny fibers its made of can be inhaled and cause cancer some locals of the town asbestos though want to keep the name. I think see the point of changing the name but its part of the history of the town changing it will be like raising not history so well have to find a name thats on is it b m y z c i dont want that i spent my entire live here so for me its another loss perhaps for the next generation it would be better to change the name but i would prefer to stick to my roots as fast there are questions they should not change i was raised here its my hometown as a people refused to come here because i think as best as is dangerous and its not ive lived here my entire life and i dont have any Health Problems which. Got some mileage between someone from montreal told me that when people hear the name as best they hear cancer i was born and raised here and my house was in the mining areas we used to breathe as best as particles although its not a good idea to change the name the best is mine is old history. A new team has just taken office up the e. U. Commission with germanys. President a pledge to keep the bloc united and fight for Democratic Values or against there forever spotted some possible complications. Its all about perspective if youre standing here the European Union looks like an apex democracy freer than free fairer than fair if you budge over and stand here its an increasingly or for a tarion club ruled by a cabal of a few dozen commissioners who no one ever elected and who only to the same people that elected them theres nothing scandalous about comparing the soviet union and the e. U. Both have only one right ideology and the boones of that ideology are considered to be repressed living both unions unthinkable the European Union of soviet socialist republics its catchy and dont forget this is the Eastern European saying so the stonier back in the days of the u. S. S. R. Complained about having to pay unelected commissars in moscow so they bailed when they could joined up with the European Union and now theyre complaining that they have to a bay unelected commissioners in brussels commissars and commissioners it was 10 years ago by the way that the 1st comparison or one of the 1st was made by a soviet this event it is no accident that the European Parliament reminds me of the supreme soviet it looks like the supreme soviet because it was designed like it similarly when you look at the European Commission it looks like the politburo they are exactly the same unaccountable to anyone not directly elected by anyone its all on paper or rather on the front cover it looks different europeans elektra the European Parliament which sounds important but in reality is virtually powerless their ultimate power is that they can recommend things to the European Commission which can then entirely ignore the will of the people and. Do whatever it wants like draft a new 5000 page long regulation and how to safely and securely screw in light bulbs exactly like the soviet police they dont have to answer to anyone they obey no one and packages being independent they command they decide they authorize a couple of dozen unelected commissioners dictate the fate of 500000000 european citizens. Those seasons feel excluded from you Decision Making they have only indirect way theyre like the European Parliament but that body holds little power this is the notion that the us something opposed democracy you can always hurt but you have no genuine choice which was almost exactly the case with the u. S. S. R. Supreme council the supreme soviet they were elected representatives of the people and exercised the bad as much power as Christmas Tree decorations there was hope for the European UnionManfred Weber a candidate running for the European Commission presidency wanted to end Power Parliament and weaken the commission introduce some accountability naturally his career ambitions ended early in the u. S. S. R. No one went against the Police Bureau in the e. U. No one messes with the commission the problem with commissars and commissioners is that inevitably when you give someone too much power and too much space they use it it changes them and they change the system they live in everything with red tape they stall everything with bureaucracy change becomes the enemy the u. S. S. R. Tried it and failed miserably and god alone knows why the europeans think theyll fare and the better. Crustal coming away in just a few moments time discussing the political crisis in hong kong were back probably quite shortly giving you that opening of the siberian power pipeline otherwise well see it off now with another global news update. When ill choke seemed wrong. Why dont we all just dont call. Me old yet to shape out just they come out of. An engagement equals betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. You know world a big part of. A lot of things and conspiracy its time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that Mainstream Media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door. And shouting past each other its taught for Critical Thinking its time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now were watching closely watching the hawks. Thinking of getting a new plan the ones we got in our shells from iraq why is he didnt know until he was trapped in this tiny little wired how much we dont need a crate with him he will stir reaching out and he will want to spray them anywhere near.
