Months hospitals and Emergency Services. Nothing has been the problem. That classified u. K. Government documents reveal that the Intelligence Services to the british news outlets into spreading out. During the cold war weve got live reaction coming up shortly. One minute past midday in Salt Lake City 4 in the afternoon in brazil. Right here in moscow january the 14th welcome to our to international. The u. S. Secretary of state painted the assassination of our runs top general custom soleimani as part of the Bigger Campaign of the terence he says it would also be applied to russia and to china picking up the story this hour to kill it mother. Mike pompei oh the u. S. Secretary of state seems to be highlighting the term deterrence as the new buzz word defining u. S. Foreign policy reestablishing deterrence real deterrence military deterrence deterrence is hard to establish an easy to lose now the killing of a top foreign general by the United States in a different country is considered now to be an act of deterrence intended to deter behavior on the part of the country or entity that was attacked there is no terrorist except Osama Bin Laden who has more american blood on his hands than did some sort of money but i want to lay this out in context of what weve been trying to do theres a bigger strategy a strategy to this we have reestablished deterrence but we know its not everlasting that risk remains we are determined not to lose that deterrence in all cases we have to do this we have to do this to defend freedom and liberty around the world thats the whole point of president trying to work to make our military the strongest its ever been and now the iraqi Prime Minister he says that was on a Diplomatic Mission so was the United States trying to deter him from engaging in peace talks regardless however according to what weve heard solomon is not the only figure who has been targeted in this deterrence campaign by the United States in addition to that we understand that a top figure in yemen a financer of the could force has also been singled out and specified in considered as a target in this way but there are other potential targets on the list this new u. S. Foreign policy strategy seems to not only apply to iran but according to my palm pales remarks it also applies to both russia and china we not just in iran but in other places too who are american deterrence was weak we watched russias 2014 occupation of the crimea chinas island building to. In the South China Sea and its brazen attempt to coerce American Allies undermine to deter us so this strategy for deterrence includes economic isolation of countries diplomatic isolation economic pressure as well as targeted killing of the foreign citizens so is this the new geopolitics deterrence is the phrase now being used to justify it all. Said its made arrests in the case of the accidentally done ukrainian passenger plane last week in which all 176. 00 on board were killed. About all your mouth a little more obvious you are people who it is very important in this incident that whoever was at fault or negligent at any level be identified anyone who should be punished must be punished. Well while of tehran has fully admitted blame for the plane crossed some have been questioning if others should bear some responsibility as Prime Minister just and true as said the dead including 57. 00 canadians would still be alive if the situation in the region had not escalated while russias foreign minister stated the u. S. Actively flame tensions in the persian gulf which led to the tragedy. No one can be satisfied with the escalation of tensions in the potion go. We cannot move away from the fact that it started when the us announced that regional troubles resulted from irans actions nation of washingtons illegal actions were no tensions if there was no escalation recently in the region those canadians would be right now home with their Families International community is being very very clear both on needing to have a nonnuclear friend while at the same time managing the tensions in the region that are brought about by us human rights lawyer done called Police Washington turning up the temperature in the region was a major contributing factor to this ouster. It is very clear it is the pine was found during a time when iran was on a higher were because the us has just killed their highest ranking military official gen somani this was a case where the command and control. In iran was not working properly and again most likely it wasnt working properly because people were under panic from what happened in iraq with the killing of solomon with found out later course this week that the us tried to kill another general in yemen. You know so again this was a terrible accident a terrible tragedy. In clearly it happened because. Of the war tensions created by the trial because the u. S. Has decided. First quite some time that International Law applies to every country in the world but the United States. In a sharp rebuke to the french government more than a 1000 doctors and hospital workers have stepped back from their administrative duties they say working conditions in the Health Sector have been gradually worsening due to a lack of funding and chronic Staff Shortages taking the pulse of the situation or to charlotte. The moving clued some 600 heads of hospital to parliament and 470 heads of Health Services and it comes amidst the countrys longest running strike in decades they say that is the doctors that they could no longer watch over service that is in adequate and threatens patient safety. Hospitals have been on strike for several months hospitals and Emergency Services unions have been sounding the alarm but politically nothing has been done thats the problem from the point of view of medical ethics doctors must treat patients we dont have the necessary resources weve been killing our Health Care System for the past 20 or 30 years we have completely changed our control system at the moment all decisions are taken not by medics but by administrative staff and manages that has to change i came here from center go get humanitarian work so i can tell you that in terms of health care france is becoming like a developing country other issues include a lack of hospital beds for patients and a growing unease it reduced stuffing numbers of hospitals across france now this move will hit some areas of the country more than others in the 2nd largest city must say almost 50 heads of departments are quitting their demanding the government comes up with a plan to fix the system for the schools or what we want is for patients to be properly treated at the optimal cost and is officially is possible were being asked to reduce staff numbers to make savings so its a never ending cycle to break the. Cycle who must give hospitals what they need to continue treating people properly we can make budget cuts but for there we need a centralized National Plan health is a National Problem and we need to invest money into the systems the Health Minister has though defended the governments position shes previously promised an additional 70000000. 00 euros in aid including a monthly risk premium for start the budget that we have announced 1500000000. 00 or 3 years will allow hospitals to renovate themselves to engage new projects to recruit staff where theyre needed and open baz where there is need but this hasnt done enough to quell the anger felt by some medical staff so what will this mean for services well they were they will remain doctors offering medical services what they will no longer be is the backbone of the profession these doctors are resigning from essentially management and did ministry 2 roles roles that often receive no extra pay for it means feature hospital projects could be hampered and complaints could go unheard their concerns are adding to the discontent in france for 6 weeks a public transport strike has hit services across the country particularly here in paris though many metro lines are now operating partial services white noise and teachers of also been striking the pension reform plans. 3 days of mobilization has been called by unions this week in a bid to force the government into retreat and already some objectives have been achieved the french Prime Minister has provisionally taken an increase in retirement age off the table but for many unions this concession is simply not enough surely auti paris. It has been revealed that the Reuters News Agency received the equivalent of millions of pounds in the 1960 s. And seventys from british Intelligence Services to spread propaganda its all to come to life for Britains National broadcaster was complicit in the subterfuge or to shut the edwards dusty lifts the lid on the story further. The deal with simple funding for avoid the services in the middle east and latin america in exchange for well political influence the spirits were sure that the british based news agency could and would provide exactly what her majestys government required the newly declassified documents have just been revealed painting the picture right here at the u. K. s National Archives. Governments interests should be well served by the new arrangement this influence would flow at the top level from reuters willingness to consult and to listen to views expressed on the results of its work but how do you fund such a mission if you dont want to do in the open nor in the public eye well via the independent public broadcaster the b. B. C. Of course and it was easy the b. B. C. Paid by and hard subscriptions and then later on 7 the British Government would repay the b. B. C. Via compensation however it didnt come cheap in fact it cost 350000. 00 pounds which in todays money is millions you see britain wanted to be big but not that big because if it was to be too profitable well then the propaganda stories would get lost amongst the other. In going for Profitable Service will reuters not be tempted to put in popular items and leave out the political material which is what we want we all know about the icing on the cake argument but if only the icing is solved and the cake left our purposes are not served the most the minds behind this were a shadowy section of the Foreign Affairs information and Research Department created in 1948 there covert goal was to create and spread anti soviet material during the cold war but have it damaged the News Agencies integrity and reputation well voice is adamant theres no way i would think such activity today and says at the time it was simply the norm and it really wasnt as bad as it seems. Many news organizations receive some form of state subsidy after world war 2 but the arrangement in 1969 was not in keeping with our trust principles and we would not do this today so you see the truth always comes out and now the National Archives under the instruction of the Foreign Office is gradually releasing Historical Records that expose dirty deeds of the past but it seems like former deals have left a shadow of whats supposed to be those at the forefront of objectivity independence and freedom from bias shouted with daschle r. T. London lets dig a little deeper into this People Better to do that with the director of the organization for propaganda studies dr pierce robinson your welcome to the program host significant is the declassification of these documents what do the tell us about the function of british media during the cold war. Well this should come out to those do we have some time about the way in which we go around. The group and use Mainstream Media in the west with. Fighting the cold war. Scholars people who. Are. Materials looking at the for example and looking at all of propaganda in a couple walks and i think it does help sort of give you a. Good reminder of that many people who often assume that propaganda is not something that works and governments and gaijin propaganda is indeed integrity to western democracy and so this is according to neutral in that sense but i didnt get away from in what we really now know about what was going on so in june a cold war period in relation to propaganda british diplomats said at the time that they wanted quote objective and Accurate Service of high quality to combat calculated fabrications from other states during that time is that understandable to some degree. Well governments and states will always make that claim in the context of major conflicts and cold war but what were trying to do is to get the truth to the public in trying to ensure that public have objected information you know the states are not reliable actors in terms of telling the truth which is one of the reasons why i you know what is posed to have a strong independent media to hold them to account. So really sort of those kind of defenses of this kind of action dont stand up and hopefully you just cant trust states governments to tell the truth especially our own. And when you have the kind of propaganda rarities underway what suffers ultimately is public understanding and really the help of the democracy were talking about just really under 160070 things are what the classified files are speaking out to what extent piers are these sorts of practices going on today. Well im sure one would be absolutely naive to think that they were very soon work processes that work today even at the site and that me know for sure that theres been a huge amount of propaganda in the last 20 years the iraq issue issue or its the war on terror. And what we see it a moment complex which is syria and iran we see an immense amount of propaganda going on and of course in terms of this actually sort of very sort of direct manipulation you just had this Integrity Initiative in the u. K. Where youve seen this is notionally independent charity receiving large sums of government money and creating clusters of journalists and academics in order to basically sure arent anti russian agenda and that there are always going to be married why not just just to move in the pair sorry for interrupting but is it possible to draw parlez between all these cold war era attempts to fight solve a problem get it on the bottle as youre just going through there against what western states claim is russian descent from asian. Yeah i mean i think there are very clear powell that the power was off. You know in the western democracies which prided themselves on notions of independent media and truth telling its true that in western democracy drives manipulate and so she shapes mole Public Opinion are a constant and has been a constant for a very long time and again with this ultimately has a very damaging effect on on the democratic and in the public sphere in boston democracy. To require blunt about it in the last 20 years to seen war up to war being initiated by the way and governments are not being underpinned by propaganda or even tony blair mentions that insults and talking it really but if youre talking why are you to the west needed a good Propaganda Campaign to underpin the war on terror that this is something we should know a lot is that as alliance today during the cold war. Your time your thoughts dr pierce robinson codirector of the organization for propaganda studies speaking to this program in this hour liking. You.
