The button yes to the button today we are going to start this party my friends with a bang a nuclear bang in the form of a New Princeton based video simulation currently making the rounds on social media that proves there was no such thing as a limited small Tactical Nuclear war called plan aids researchers at Princeton University science and Global Security lab created to form an animation to show the potentially catastrophic consequences of current u. S. And Russian Nuclear war plans according to the researchers the simulation is based on an actual independent assessments of current u. S. And Russian Force postures and Nuclear Weapon targets. In total after all the birds of launched as you can see here in the video the estimates more than 91000000. 00 people in russia the United States and nato allied countries might be killed or injured within 3 hours following a single Nuclear Warning shot 91000000 people and that doesnt even take into account the deaths from Nuclear Fallout and all the other Long Term Health and environmental effects from a full on nucular exchange its sobering videos and statistics like these that remind us that it isnt duck and cover that will keep us safe. Its watching the hawks. What would you rate the Playing Field with this one. As the plot of. The day like you that i got. With. The. Welcome on the watch of the hawks i am tired robot and happen a lot less. Dramatic video at or about a pretty girl when we will forget just how big these like air strikes like its nice to sit and say in your in your comfy house your comfy apartment and say well you know i just think we should bomb iran i mean whats the big deal anguish totally newcome newcome up i mean weve heard people weve had people say that this doesnt say yes that is a great idea with that theres that next day after its great that you get your little bit of revenge and you feel a little right righteous about it but. Theres the day after theres the week after theres the years after and then go to her russian and talk to us which you know 1st you dont theres nothing until you talk to someone whos been a direct victim of a Nuclear Blast and theres only a couple places you can do that i just dont think that people really understand that thats the plan thats plan and a yeah yeah thats what you see in this video is that you will see exactly how the plans will play out if followed as the both votaries russian made oh the u. S. Of all those military plans were to be put in place and there was go time up of one strike this is exactly what youd see happen there is the u. S. Rockets flying through the air then you see russians coming up then you see natos thats all Nuclear Weapons thats. Everywhere would hit according to plan essentially russia launched 300. 00 Nuclear Warheads with the goal of wiping out nato Nato Response of 180. 00 nukes of its own the us launches its smorgasbord of nukes and that is the whole show bang 90000000 people wiped out in a span of 3 hours if were not careful its cooler heads dont prevail well and thats the problem is that you have a system set in place in which cooler heads arent supposed to the media doesnt want most news doesnt happen saying over there thinking about this theyre thinking about this and we saw the release of those pentagon documents about how wed handle Nuclear Weapons what the current plans are in case this happened just earlier this year the doctrine for joint Nuclear Operations on the. Joint chiefs of staff website back in june there was this interesting. Note from that document which said integration of Nuclear Weapons employment with conventional and special Operations Forces is essential to the success of any Mission Operation also according to the document the us doesnt have a no 1st use policy so we dont technically have a policy of saying we wont nuke 1st shocking i know weve only done it before there are sort of prepared to use that men anyway thats thats conventional nonconventional which i think goes back to the point of you know were looking at entire generation of soldiers that were in iraq who have either are suffering with cancer or died of cancer because of burn pads what do you think theyre going to come home with if you drop a nuke and then say ok you guys gone in there and finish the job and they would what do you think happens whats the Environmental Impact how many vets are going to come home. I mean you talk about Climate Change you know well there you go you know and thats the thing that nobody takes into consideration this whole d simulation was based on the idea of that thats been put forward numerous times in the last few years of all we can use Nuclear Weapons and like conventional small little places like we can drop like one tactical move and that somehow thats ok thats you know this is where the doctrine live regular bombs dont just kill people right there is there that sort of understand a Nuclear Weapon obliterate the whole area makes a place on lovable for a large amount of time. If it were not in defense of american of them if not its barely a weapon its a toy for psycho this is it truly is whats more frightening too is because of the Way Technology and launch technologies and it has been approved and built upon in an article for war in the rocky rocks out im loath. To argue that given the technical bensons made since the cold war in the 1st Strike Technology that it may be no asserted to develop a system based on Artificial Intelligence with breed of terminal response decisions that detects decides and direct strict. Forces with such speed that the attack Time Compression challenge does not place the United States in an impossible position in other words what theyre arguing is ai can and everything over to ai they can strike quicker if someone launches at us 1st which is essentially the plot of terminator 2 i was going to survey we want that i mean there are. Us pilots flight attendants Nuclear Power plant operators and railroad bus drivers operate under very restrictive schedules to avoid things like sleep deprivation and judgment lapses as well as fatigue and psychosis however while you are in the sky there is one member of the flight crew not protected by those guidelines among others and the result is being called a crisis federal air marshals part of the t. S. A. Consists of about 3000 covert armed guards who are deployed on commercial passenger jets to protect the crew d and passengers from acts of criminal or terrorist advice lives while in the air however a series of reports government investigations and a month long a. B. C. News investigation uncovered that this elite force of sharpshooting sky cops has been a major increase in suicides murder suicides psychotic episodes fatal Health Issues and severe depression in recent years the president of the air Marshall National councils Sonia Hightower the bosco told a. B. C. News that the crisis is here its an epidemic if we dont try and stop this im in fear that the next time i turn on the t. V. Its going to be an airplane taken down even more disturbing is the fact that the t. S. A. The Transportation Safety administration has made a habit of destroying the careers and lives of air marshals who choose to blow the whistle on waste fraud mismanagement and abuse so the question remains who is looking out for the people who look out for the rest of us. To understand is that we just have to put all of our trust and faith in those people they know better the government always knows better the government doesnt mistreat any of it some. Lawyers there theyre happy all the time and are never stressed and they never do d anything wrong ever how patriotic and it is isnt it but thats the mentality they try to sell you like dont whistle whistle blow whats going to air marshals there theyre super human rights i mean well here look ill give you the t. S. A. He. Responded to the report saying that quote but no one heard marginals bams are a critical and successful part of the us as a layered approach to transportation security the health and welfare of every man and woman who serves in the fams as t. S. A. Is highest priority t. S. A. And federal air marshal leadership take the care of every federal air marshal very seriously vigorously and dispute any indication otherwise. Yes because a. B. C. News and all these people are making this up theyre not overworked theyre not overstressed and their job is nothing but sunshine and flowers obviously im glad youre on. Wow except or i dont know the ts is required by law or policy to keep a record of these suicides by air marshals but. Theyre somewhere between 3 to 5 or youre right so remember a couple weeks ago the n. Y. P. D. About a week or so ago when the air or the officer who who murdered eric garner losses was officially lost his job and they were all kind of talking about this this how many suicides there was this you know complaint that it was a strike in a number of suicide suzanne there isnt something again or talk about a huge difference of a number see you about 3000 federal air marshals and then when you look at the n. Y. P. D. Which is Something Like 91 ill say its a large when you go there yes like maybe 6000 people it would be the equivalent of them having 30. 00 to 50. 00 suicides in a year. If you look at them like currently so they had 9 this year 90 some of 1000 Police Officers the n. Y. P. D. 3000 of these specially trained highly trained sharpshooters on a plane never quite understood that but this is a person whos now not being looked after is going through a very stressful and or they dont really have a union you know so were kind of looking at a thing where theyre not protected in that way. There was a congressional report entitled urgent reforms needed at t. S. A. From september of 20000. 00 allies or cummings in congress to part of it said that the report revealed a pattern of mismanagement at t. S. A. And v. H. S. Including arbitrary and retaliatory Personnel Practices for lack of uniform Civil Service protections has led to numerous deviations from agency and deployment policy and from government once standers. Which has which in turn has chilled whistleblowers harmed morale and negatively affected Agency Operations heres where this is the thing you can sit in have your oh they should be tougher all well its a tough job oh well we do the best we can thats not ok you cannot treat people are supposed to be like the elite of our country and these people intel is for keeping them safe its the same thing with cops dont sit there and tell me this when youre when youre doing everything you can to punish anybody who finds wrongdoing and wants to make things better whistleblowers are there especially in those businesses theyre there to try to make things better theyre there to say hey the system isnt working correctly stop major things from happening and to their marshals job has got to be garbage think about that we have to work on a plane what are the top 12 hours a day and you cant fall asleep you cant read a book youve got to be actually going to read it and youre armed boy thats the person i want in a stressful situation remember i was in the right and i know they are you but hes ever understood why the solution to our safety as some of the gone on other than id like to rethink that whole idea so our screwed what are right on that note we will go to break our watchers dont forget to let us know what you think of the topics weve covered on our social media be sure to watch your dogs the podcast which is now available on spotify apple does it everywhere you will see the podcast coming up we discuss the release of Edward Snowden this leg who we discussed aebersold his legacy and his new memoir permanent record with the best going to buy this one which they dont want to miss this. Where were you. 2009. Thats a question theyll be asking kids grandkids for years to come now as the 1st episode of the kinds. Report yes 10 years ago the kaiser report began broadcasting all over the world under the countrys billions of people. Thousands of american men and women choose to serve in the countrys military and the decision. Every song came to a complete. The day that i was raped. You know told to shut up theyd kill me and i see how it destroyed my life any screamed at me and he made me come in and he grabbed my own arm and he write me this bird think area if you take into account that women dont report because of the extreme retaliation its probably somewhere near about half a 1000000 women have now been sexually assaulted in the us military rape is a very very traumatizing thing to have happen but ive never seen trauma like ive seen women who are veterans who have suffered military sexual trauma reporting rape is more likely to get the victim punished and be offended and almost 10 year career or chose very invested in and i gave a sex offender who was not even put to justice or put on the registry this is simply an issue of tower and violence male sexual predators for the large part of target whoever is there to prey upon whether thats a man or when. Theyre going to. Go. To a point 00000 to do that it would. Be a. Very. Good thing to do and. For some may 20th 2013 was just another day like any other in our lives but for one young n. S. A. Contractor that is a day that would forever change not only a future of his life but that of the free world as well you see may 20th was the day that n. S. A. Contractor Edward Snowden at just 30 years old 1st arrived in hong kong with a cache of top secret documents that he would later use to reveal that the free world was not as free as our leaders promised us it was now 6 years later Edward Snowden a surveillance state whistleblower heard around the world has released a memoir of his life entitled permanent record the book not only delves into the events and circumstances that made him a permanent figure in our collective history books but it also fits into a record his deep love and respect for another onsite hero in this journey his wife lindsay mills and speaking about the release of the book snowden told guardian journalist Ewen Macaskill who was one of the original journalists he met in hong kong back in 2012 that quote you have to be ready to stand for something if you want to change that is what i hope this book will help people come to decide for themselves and her stage right are good friends in the United States government to risk mind us all that snowden is still public enemy number one with the announcement that the u. S. Justice department has filed a civil lawsuit against snowden and his publisher over permanent record joining us now to discuss Edward Snowdens new book his legacy and the Justice Departments no lawsuit is investigative journalist and fun thanks for joining us then. Thanks for having me on. First lets get into this lawsuit and why is the u. S. Justice department suing Edward Snowden and one of the even remotely hope to get from the lawsuit. Its kind of comical on some levels if it wasnt so bizarre but essentially what theyve done is they filed a lawsuit to say that they know they cant stop the publication of the book because the 1st amendment was in the constitution so instead what theyre done is theyve gone to a judge and said he should not be allowed to profit off of this book so theyre asking the court who essentially allow the government to seize all the money that is made from the book itself and for the government to be able to keep that money and not only that but to go a step further and to also file on for the court to essentially put out an injunction that will say that snowden can give no speeches in any locations around the world about the book or the contents of the book so thats what theyre asking the court to do while. Its not of like freedom and its interest im just going to add in this really quick whats really interesting about this is the other major whistleblower Chelsea Manning she is now getting fined 1000. 00 a day every day that shes shes being held in jail Edward Snowden theyre going after his money thats an interesting kind of tactic that the governments taking now lets go after their money and lets cut their source of funds lets not let them earn a living and that kind of attitude about thats really frightening really frightening. When i was apologize i lost audio here for its like oh its ok oh well moving on as a response to the lawsuit snowden had tweeted today this is the book the government does not want you to read obviously the Justice Department went hold my beer and said yeah obviously. Did did the Justice Department and Edward Snowden the biggest free pub less than a for a buck ever in the history of anything ever. Right right but they obviously havent i mean the idea that the Justice Department is essentially giving some attention to
