A terrorist act against the police did take place and illegitimate seizure of power of could the government offices were taken over. Again brings you our next update just 60 minutes away from now stay with us for. Hello and welcome to all Things Considered im Peter Lavelle on this edition of questions sent to us by you the viewers we received quite a few questions here we do our best to answer some of them. Cross talking fan mail im joined by mike. Yes robert bridges in our t. Website writer we also have Dimitri Bobbitt she is a political analyst and editor at interest me internet media project and in london we cross to Marcus Papadopoulos hes the editor of politics 1st magazine or a gentleman crosstalk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate we got a lot of questions sent to us were not going to be able to answer them all but ill get the worst one out of the way and go to marcus 1st ok we have a question from adrian holeman question pretty obvious will donald trump be eventually removed from office go ahead where as we go into the new year the impeachment saga continues go ahead marcus. Personally i find it very difficult to believe it or that donald trump will be removed from office i think that republicans are very unlikely so for his impeachment its more likely if anything donald trump could resign or number less i think thats a little trying to go into the twentys when see as president s i think he finds the november 20th once the president ial election and i believe. A little late in the american. Dream him down to impeach him will fail you know you get to ok i think thats a given here and its going to be in peril as he interesting question more up your alley here is mccrone the french president realigning with your regime interesting question well i dont think so i think we shouldnt be reading too much into he is statement about the brain death of need talk so dont take the french president serious and dont take mrs ray seriously because it was obvious that decided to bully the liberal game you know everyone is allowed to insult trump so he decided to insult him too and he went a little too much. Too far in his criticism because it was our angle americal poll america sadly issue mediately pull him back to bite he is sleeves of atheist caller yeah and. Basically their message share from d america and from the e. U. Was that. You know that this man blood on the deck the institution we need the institution so that we can basically wage a few more wars band if we analyze the statements a lot of them are basically pretty aggressive against russia i mean his suggestion to have a new European Army united European Army he 1st said about the russian danger and then the. Then if you mention chair in line with what you think i thought you think this is more of a kind of and napoleonic urge on his part here i dont sound very vibrant but lets remember you were in history recent history there were 2 times when you were proud a unified single army and porto and the heat were borstar a step by me at that russia and they didnt like the anglosaxon by the. Save this means that its going to another question here i want to answer robert here we have. Does russia see itself turning communism by deepening its relations with china i ask you that question. Very good reason is because there is this perception peddled by the Mainstream Media that nothing ever really changes in russia and of course things have i mean you and i have lived here for a very long time and we have our russian friends as a sharper to help us and we are. Right but just because russia has a growing relationship with china doesnt mean its ideological good i think thats kind of like the same as saying that the United States is turning communist because were doing business with its well look at the president ial candidates ok. They are reinforcing that idea i mean trump actually get up and say in front of the congress we will never become a socialist country because there is that tendency from the progressive far left were heading in that direction slowly but thats a different story i would like to just throw in there i dont think people in the United States when they talk about socialism have any idea what theyre talking about this is this a label that has been thrown around no it took no its been but its been thrown around in american politics as something taboo when we get down to it some of the things that proposals and people would agree with that but thats socialism so you know what you do is you give it a marketing they call a halo but so i really hate that conversation about communists i mean lets quickly move on to another question because i really appreciate the viewer sending in them in linda ward asking i think this is a very interesting question this is for marcus in london has the e. U. Deserted christianity and traditional family values and if so why go ahead marcus. Not officially but of course the year in britain america and indeed most of the worlds has now adopts its a cool cap so this idea of ideology and corporate capitalism and in my own cats it isnt per se loss the soul as a nation catalysts makes people dot it serious and it makes people put serious on over spiritualists on so its not that the us doing anything different so what is better off oil or indeed australia that is the nature of corporates caps it is and i think its very sad i think its very dangerous i think the fabric of society in the west coming in has been it was of corporate capitalism and it is therefore refreshing to see that more and more people are looking to sell its ideology its you know its stay with lindas quite willing to wards question here robert because i think it is really important in and ill give my own humble opinion here which of course its my program so im going to do it but there is a considered attack on family values and the family itself and i think this is something thats tearing the fabric of society apart in the west and i was i know the west the best and this is the foundation of western civilization in the modern times and theres a concerted attack on it and i dont see anything good coming from it because you know why because no ones happy everyone ends up being miserable as a result robert yeah i think it has a lot to do with mo number one materialism and number 2 this influx of maybe some people would disagree with me but the influx of Illegal Migrants into europe that i think has had an incredible effect on the families the Family Structure i mean theyre picking people out of their apartments so that Illegal Migrants can can live there theyre theyre cutting back on strip ins for families so that they can give more people more money to. Illegal these Illegal Migrants so i know that you know you had these christmas festivities that are happening in town and town squares and these have been going on for hundreds of years without any problem and now you have you know they have to set up antiterrorist bunkers around these Little Christmas bazaars where people you know once celebrated for generations without any question. I think theyre Transnational Companies multinationals are involved here because they need a new man just you know like not just talk about a new man. But dont they want to displace the current exactly have a graphic to replace it where you have more why and quote unquote voters yes ill get all the name of democracy i deal walk off for a multinational is a human transform someone without a family who you can send to africa to day to china to moral he or she feels absolutely the same way or if they want to have children its a. Bad idea you know youre going to have children we can freeze yours sell some then give you a child without because when you all 40 so its easier for us then to have it things happening unpredictably but this is a game human nature and. You know this idea that every human should close totally change itself you know. This is the reason why there is so much talk about transgender so i have nothing against homosexuals people have been very just they were born that way but this is their idea of multinationals change yourself to yourself every day this way you will leave for 300 or 400 years transhumanism these are all dangerous ideas because in there and not getting humans where you get in some kind of new species and. Say im going to go back to markets another question from one of our viewers go commit. Sit on him he asked so do you really really changing or is it. Early 1st show would then a lot of programs on saudi arabia. Primarily because of the anti western campaign against iran and the genocidal war being waged against yemen what about saudi arabia go ahead marcus. Saudi arabia is an autocratic states and its official creed wahhabism is not just weak its not just deprived it is obscene therefore based on those 2 realities it is impossible for saudi arabia sort of course its no different to saying for example christianity per se capitalism or say communism i say uh not evil but evil deeds have been done in the name all capitalism christianity and communism. Is that all you need to do is read about the principles the tenets of it was obvious and you would see that this is an evil ideology and we have an equal ideology in place in our country entrenched in palate but it is simply a market threat marcus you never hear that in the Mainstream Media saudi arabia is a valued ally in the middle east like israel they put them there on par ok i mean but what does that say about the consciousness of public the political elites in the west. They dont know that politicians in britain and america and journalists and brits and in america whether they are liberal or conservative have no moral compunction with a lawyer themselves with any governments with any organization with any group crew or thought its true of that country that group that organization holds american and british geo strategic objectives and saudi arabia yes these are very important friends not a lot so america and britain but its the most repugnant country in the roads ok if i can interject here before the break but its russias fault and chinas fault that assad is still in. Power enemy and damascus you know jack just one thought. Without western support and without the nishida from the west was in yemen and in syria would not have begun it was not saudi arabia that started them it was the west that kind of pushed solavei arab and other states into doing this ok were going to jump in here were going to go to a short break and after that short break well continue our program on cross talk fanmail state with r. T. Analysis so seems wrong. But all wrong just dont call. Me ali good to see pal hes the county council. And in detroit because the trail. Went on to find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. Time after time corporations repeat the same mantra sustainability very of course its accelerate the transition to sustainable transport sustainability. A more equitable and sustainable world. They claim their production is completely harmless. Because the markets and. Companies want us to feel good about products while the damage is being done far away this is Something Else this must be done even as im. In this movie didnt anyone and im stunned. Understand that with who is going to. Welcome back to crossfire where all things are considered im Peter Lavelle remind you were discussing some questions we received from our viewers. Ok the next question from one of our viewers Donovan Mccormick in this is right up your alley dream is something you talk about almost every Single Program and actually Marcus Papadopoulos talks about it a lot here so a little lengthy but im going to go through it what do you think the future of nato looks like with its apparent mission pivot and all of its agreements between the United States and other members pretty special of the turks do you believe the turks will make good on their threat to remove u. S. Military airbase home of u. S. Warheads and let another nato army take the base. Well the problem with liberal ideology is that it makes people quarrel you know its just amazing how they accuse the russians. Or saw discord in the United States between blacks and wives between you know all of us and i know where all the whatever has if and see if the liberal media did not do it itself the miles of dame all the time so the same story with a need to a we see a real inability to resolve conflicts because we see an inability to compromise. Unfortunately there was there is totally inability or for compromise also in the turkish case just a few years ago in 2012 nato was saying we need to protect turkey from syrian aggression im quoting the new york times. Which was absurd because syria was suffering from a civil war itself into iraq on from the outside yeah but also at turkish fighter jet was downed by Syrian Defense because that fighter jet breached the syrian airspace and it was viewed as a cause big league you know the people in france in london were talking about the need to protect you know this year i just couldnt believe my ears say couldnt believe my eyes turkey is a take in syria its in the territories of our elyse so suddenly the narrative turned completely the different direction of course in this situation you have conflicts and of course you have conflicts between turkey and european allies to get the United States and are unless they change their ideology there will be collapse of nato if you have as you have nato in its in its. Reasons to exist which is to exist thats its mission it has to exist but you have a turkey its really turning to a kind of neo autumn in islam here but more let me let me go to markets in london ones that are just compatible here because we just recently had the nato summit and of course western media. They just you know smooth all the edges and in all the crevices everythings a Big Happy Family and its going to protect the west from all these evil outside forces which of course dont really exist and then you have this turkish behavior erda one doing every i mean basically spitting in everybodys i but no everythings all nice and fine with the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation i mean media again is shameful in its coverage of this go ahead marcus peter theres a lot of naive that say a marx condensates in the west and also in russia regard in turkey no turkish later do anything to weaken turkeys strategic relationship with the west with america with britain and with nato it would be National Suicide for turkey to do anything that could cause it so late the wests all bit turkey is in cyprus illegally because of the blank check you see some america turkey is in syria illegally because the blank check you see from america turkey goes in syria iraq illegally because of the blank check if the say now we have and now we have and now we have a libya coming up. Yes whats what will it again says in public is very difference what he says in crimea in public he has to come across as this strong leader hes telling the turkish people no one will tell me what to do in private circles he same fans very different to the americans if erdogan wants to make good on his pledge that turkey is independent and would do as it pleases then leave nato tell the americans to pack up their military bases and tell the americans to look so weve joined then you can or warrants ringback but of course hes not going to do that the turkish state is unbelievably circumvent the other way youre sleeping with where youre saying our case is that the the the western alliance needs turkey more than turkey needs the western alliance is that what youre saying thats the kind of leverage they have. Certainly survivals at cirque he has power at it exerts today Eastern Mediterranean and in the middle east that is based on its relationship with the west but also the west against massively through its influence in circles for its strategic relationship which certainly is a time to spy on russia from the black sea its a cement its hold over the middle east and in the Eastern Mediterranean so turkey is firmly entrenched in the west so its only a guess and theres one there are so entrenched they can be extremely mysterious and thats exactly what were seeing from and on lets go on the ask have another question here jonathan as the u. S. China deal would suggest a compromise is possible but there is a cost is that its a question is there a cost the chinese sovereignty robert because what you see now is that you know what weve seen i think 2019 in many ways was a year of sanctions sanctioning friends and foes here we had in the middle of the 2019 a tentative trade deal and the chinese were backed away from it because it was in printing upon their sovereignty did we say you see this new phase one that theyre all talking about being able to take the heat out of this trade socalled trade war and this trump benefit from this go ahead. Theres so much to benefit from the good relations with with china and with china remaining solver and i dont see i dont see china ever agreeing to give up any sort of any sort of its own sovereignty in order to have a deal with the United States have to keep in mind too that the chinese economy just unbelievably powerful theyre like. They have 400000000 people in the middle class ok 2nd 2nd amount wealthy people super rich people all the dark sort of billionaires im sorry billionaires in the world so this is a part of the world that trump there is no way they could sacrifice their. You know their needs more. Bad for the little boys and then donate thats why is that it is a command. Simply because. They are not straight jacketed by this. Ideology and because chinese a powerful nation you know with a huge potential i think in the long dollops that but the point is that the pressure from trump was still shameless pulled even a bomb because well look the pressure on china did not start with trump you know when a bomber suggested Transpacific
