5:30 pm
wants to use the same approach not only to quickly as he says, ending of fighting and gaza, there also and even the fighting ukraine. this man is beyond the pal. this should be forced to resign immediately. know the newly elected president of sending gold is planning to re negotiate the contracts of oil and gas projects developed by a number of western energy joints including b, p. a presidential oral advisors saves the move, would boost government revenues to boost to the states revenue from oil and gas. it's necessary to renegotiate the contracts to increase the state's shares and change the system of sharing of production. renegotiating contracts doesn't mean that the state will impose itself on the companies without taking the law into consideration, but that the 2 parties agree to discuss some clauses of the contract. the law, after numerous delays, the west african country,
5:31 pm
is set to open the tops this year and 2 large liquefied natural gas projects in partnership with western energy companies. now let's say the new sites could help set a goal, become one of the worlds fastest growing economies. the shakeup comes ahead of tuesdays and organizational new president's bus route di maya fee. so he was an empty establishment candidate who secured to run 54 percent of the vote beating as close as rival by almost 20 percentage point. we got reaction from mart dang, from the african leadership university school of business receives the developments are further examples of the nation's desire to actively overcome the vestiges of its colonial past. a lot of the, uh, the uh, the young people, what be i like to do, or a place to, to get to power or have voice to very openly they are intended to renegotiate contracts and also to review the relationship with a form of colonial power such as france and uh, there is
5:32 pm
a lot of support and sentiment, especially among young people for this type of move right to try to even out the relationships we form a whole new policy. and that's the context in which you have to put some of these a non announcements. now i do believe that once the president is working in on it for a 2nd, which is a very soon, you will see a little bit of a uh, you know, uh, the mitigation or a little bit of a, not the walking box. some of these uh these, the declarations, but i think that they will have to come to terms with the reality off international joe politics. i think it would be very difficult for the incoming government to all of a sudden go back on all of those commitment, particularly because somebody go has to be seen so far as a country that that really respects the roof at all. when and dollars blame the russians, thought maybe that multiple among some a lead,
5:33 pm
send the west. but is there a growing disconnect between governments on citizens, on the us postal of debates, the the hello and welcome to cross type bullhorn design, peter little bell here we just got some real news. the russians are coming, the russians are coming. here we go again. the more the west becomes unsure of itself, the more he blames russia is the west afraid of its own shadow. to discuss these issues and more, i'm joined by my guess, george, send me while we in budapest, he is a pod cast through at the goggle,
5:34 pm
which can be found on youtube and locals. and in marrow cash, we have martin j. he's and lord winning, journalist and commentator. read gentlemen cross talk roles. in fact, that means you can jump any time you want than i would appreciate it. all right, let's get this off with george in budapest, georgia. you and i noticed due to our podcast, is growing contradictions, if we can put it that way. okay. so some people call it mon, newer we'll get back to that comment in a minute. but um, so the white house is really intent on, claiming that they knew all along what was going on and the russians just wouldn't pay attention. you know, um, uh, it's their fault. we gave them fair warning, of course, and making reference to the terrorist attack in the concert hall a little over a week ago. the judge they, they, they know all about that, but they don't know about north stream. i, i don't understand the, it's, it is very hard to understand and you're absolutely right. it's very,
5:35 pm
very odd. so when the u. s embassy issue this warning on march the 7th, then you can understand why the rush of authority is we're a little wary. how does they, the americans come to have such fantastic the great intelligence about what's going on here. given the limited presence uh, in, in russia and the know will about a, any pending terrorist attack, which is what they were suggesting. now, anyone who is as follows, terrorist investigations knows that is the person who gives you the tip off or the bus. the claims the found the ball who becomes the media suspect. because obviously going to be such a wonderfully and for your display as to know about something that's about to happen. so you can see why russia was very wary and, and when the president boots and they made the statements here, he said that somehow the,
5:36 pm
what the americans were doing was very suspicious. so now the americans are doing this, this bizarre thing of taking victory lapse. so i, well we, we were still waiting on the bull and the russians really what it was was so slow on that. well, why, why, why were you on the boat? what was it that you knew? because quite obviously you didn't provide any useful, reliable intelligence as so it does, it becomes very, very straight as well in georgia. so they, they, they, they, us, ottam came out within an hour or so and said it was the ice escape. but what's an ice? this k involved in the killing of the 13 service member members as couple airport. i mean, they didn't know about that block, but in, in they were there in afghanistan. okay, that's exactly right. 20 years by the way that would run and everybody is. and then you know, think about that. well that, that was a big shock for us. yeah. no, i, that there's no question that they may reclaim those,
5:37 pm
those to be absolutely certain that it was uh, i says, within a positive. now what happens when, i mean, not only, you know, anybody else has bought dissipation, not only where they certain it was an ice as k, but if i go to martin right now, they are absolutely certain it was in ukraine. that's very interesting to come up with that kind of message simultaneously. we know who did it. we know who didn't. well, why would you mentioned who didn't do it because they didn't do it? i don't understand that martin does not much credibility to others. i really, i mean, you know, we are living in a peer at now all extreme, this information and unfortunately because of major support and so serve up to these intelligence leaks so, briefings, you know, we have this situation now where by the media basically endorses some of these ludicrous statements and more or less people swallow that you know, because people are becoming more, not even more stupid. so i said unfortunately, but you know, when we talk about isis, the thing that strikes me as a, as an old hack this, what's in syria and what,
5:38 pm
1011 and for years is what people forget about isis. and this may well have been a point for the russians, is isis brody speaking, divided into 2 groups in, in iraq and syria. and it is broadly the ones that the americans comp control dot com. i'm gonna go who a completely federal completely out of control and all the hard cool extreme is terrorist organization that is doing what it needs to do. but then the other group is the ones that have actually been coalesced into taking money from the met on the met and encourage, straighten themselves with the american payroll. and we saw this and the serial mutual direct. we sold us in, in russia, in syria, where by right lines were created by the americans to allow ices flights is to leave and to reform and south through syria. and so when, so even if the americans did give this tip to the russians, you know, you can put yourself in a position, a russian in terms of his looking at that and thinking, well, you know, well,
5:39 pm
i says that you're talking about your ice is all the other ice is all, you know, so the account you call the blame the russians already know, acting on it. but as i think the statement of self love, they, they did act on the original very general tip. they did react on that george and, and it was uh, you know, a dot. okay. that was exactly right. and they did mean the issue this morning on march the 7th. and i think 2 days later, they apparently swore to some kind of a um, impending attack on a uh, on the synagogue. and they the couple of, uh, cause that's what killed um. so yeah, they did that, but then they thought, well, yeah, this is something reliable and i think is martin points out for the, for the russians. they are indeed very suspicious about isis. they don't really thing that i assist has latanya most existence and that it is actually a creation of the,
5:40 pm
the west and particularly the american intelligence agencies. and indeed israel. and we know, you know, the story that's basically ice is never seems to attack israel. and the very is a very moment when is, well, is a waging this uh, earth, a war against muslims. that, strangely enough list supposedly jihad, the radical islam is muslim organization. doesn't they targets a israel, but i guess rush it to obviously there is something very suspicious about but, and again, you know, as we need to emphasize, why would the united states and my crone and everybody else is the british immediately rollout any ukrainian connection when we looked into it, there is a ukrainian as long as the connection as well. martin, there's actually a very long one. i mean, he goes back even to the independence. that'd be great. in 1991 where we have had these groups of, uh, most likely sponsored in one form or another by the c i a and then my 6 they have
5:41 pm
have been in ukraine. and we know that after the illegal cooling 2014, that these groups, these militia groups that were invited, they thoughts on this, on the side of neo nazis against the people of the don bouts. this is all well documented. okay. i mean, this is not, you know, something that's made out of thin air like would be us, the state department does on a daily basis. martin to. yeah, i mean, uh, you know, when they, the, the americans on the press of refused to, to join us the adults, i think, uh, you know, that really says a lot about what, what's really going on here. this is a, this is a play. this is a, a, roost by america to come off as the victor and, you know, by the needs victories no matter how pathetic and how remedial and mine is. they may, will be, he, you know, he's scrambling to really take any of victory, a can get a package it, i give it to his friends in the media because he's got now what 6 months ahead of
5:42 pm
him where he's gonna really face a baptism. the 5 from angry americans who are demanding what you keep telling us the american economy is so great. but why am i spending 3040 percent? sometimes even 50 percent more in the supermarket. you know why? um, more more people in america losing the homes. you know, and, and i think this is the really the problem he's looking for media chaff the, the, what the british will used to do, and the 2nd level of roll up the little bits of dominion fluid and threaten us out of airplanes. going as a germany to just to distract the radars? no, he needs that tough. and i think the story really is about the is a message me to distraction? well it, it goes a little bit further. um, speaking of mon, newer i was the one that mentioned that george and john john kirby's folks, him for the national security council. he said, rather bizarrely, but i'm going to quote him. russian officials seem to be pretty goodman, newer salesman. i mean, why the victory all, i mean, you know, it fresh, the russians were the victims here. okay. i mean, i, you know, you,
5:43 pm
you're the 1st one, the 1st one here to use the word victory lapse is this warrant of victory lap. i think most people, when you hear the story, there's sympathy that civilians died. i don't think, you know, you can, you can create your own narrative, you know, make, they deserve it type, you know, and we hear that all the time from neo cons. but i mean, after this, this rate to be cut out to be deemed of victory left, but it certainly doesn't. and those who say the russians was the victims, you know, dad will victims. and what exactly is the united states congratulating itself will came up? well, i think you and i figured it out there, so i'm well technically congratulating themselves in creating an alibi. it's kind of tied together. that's a good guess, like an hour. but when they finally gave a very vague warning, and as it was like the new york times of all places published as
5:44 pm
a well actually the united states didn't review very much to the russians. because given how paul relations are between the united states and russia and give them the war and ukraine, the united american intelligence is very wary. where it off revealing anything about sources and methods to rush it. so in fact, the, like the new york times that missed the, you know, the, that the americans really gave very little by way of anything i could concrete information. so why the victory lab? why, why you get to use the same? how well we have done and then other then when you're creating an out of like game, get to the point of why is that your, you come up with this statement on uh, on march the 7th, which is very vague. how do you come to know this? this was amazing. the thing of, i mean branding terrorist attacks in russia will places what did you say they
5:45 pm
didn't know anything about? and there was that, that going up, goes up, and then having basic, you know, provided they brought the information, you're thinking victory lives and coming up with these a tire. well just not the george. i mean to be cynical. i hate to say this because it's pure cynicism, but the victory lap is that this terrorist attack succeeded and i'm sorry. yeah, that could be both. i think it's and the alibi is i think it was already doing it on the paid. we did what we did, we, we gave this a warning, so don't don't point to anything, does it? uh, so that's, that's what makes sending level open rates suspicious. and the russians do seem to be very suspicious of you know, what the united states have been doing? well, i know, considering martin, you, ukraine has resorted as it loses on the battlefield to terrorist acts against civilians in russia. 30 seconds before we go to the break martin, why should we be surprised by the, you know, it's, it's typical we've seen the past and the last few months, and i think we're going to see a lot more of that. you know, when, when a country is losing and well,
5:46 pm
it becomes more and more desperate. and when americans go to the moon to do some of these more sensational stance. i think this is paul for the course and, and i think we're all going to see a lot more of it. we should be prepared for that. okay, gentleman that to jump in here. we're going to go to a short break. and after that short break, we'll continue our discussion on some of that. we'll need to stay with our to the the, what is part of the blog post that isn't the deepest view of us and that in the word part is it something deeper, more complex might be present. let's stop without glitches. let's go out of as
5:47 pm
the welcome back to cross that boulder and john peter roosevelt remind you were discussing some real news show here. let me go back to you in budapest here. i'll just kind of widen it out a little bit. as we all know, 2024 is a big election year all across the western world. and i'm not surprised. you're not surprised. martin is not surprised. our viewers are not surprised. russia gate is returned. okay, i'm in a new car nation of it here here. so, you know, the more, the more the ruling elite, so they don't care, you know, the or liberal conservative in whatever the, the, the more problems they face, the more they like to play the card. like to remind everyone, the initial integration of russia gave you that precious. we little of results for the people that peddled it and is george and 9 martin who pointed out
5:48 pm
over and over again the original iteration, nebraska game. we're preciously few russians involved. we're seeing, but we're seeing a repeat, i guess because of the in their mind it worked or they don't have any other tools in their tool kit. take it away. george. i think is uh both. um you live uh, in a few weeks ago we had this case of this guy, alexander smearing off who been for a decade more than a decade a, um, an f b i informant. that it was, he was actually being paid by the f b i to gary on in the carrier intelligence operations on the, on the a, b, i suddenly being arrested for full. i have apparently being a, a russian, this information agent. when only it was doing was what he was paid to the he was telling me his f, b i handlers what he, what the year russians. i mean by the, you know, that that's what it meant for real. the guy had
5:49 pm
a russian name. he doesn't seem to be a russian, i mean, he was a jewel american, these randy citizen. and the prosecutors bizarrely said no, no, no, he has to be imprisoned awaiting trial and the trial maybe a year's way because he might interfere with the 2024 presidential election. so now we have a un, it's original that in europe where apparently a massive intelligence operation of holding the checks, the belgians, the spanish, the germans, that cracked down on the, on the, on the russian. this installation ring a bank that they were running a website called voice of your up, which a apparently they said was getting finance wrong victim meant that york and the great sin of this uh, the voice of your website was that it was questioning the territorial integrity and solve really to of ukraine, nebraska that merits uh to the closing down of the side,
5:50 pm
posing the red line. that's a red light, red mine. and there's massive self. congratulations right here, a be a new of the media that finally it what we're cracking down on the russian, this information operation when nobody's even ever heard to this website, go ahead. no, i hadn't heard of a 100. okay, but martin, you know, one of the interesting things is i, i mentioned a election season and, you know, we, i, i think the crown prince of political, this information is like political, which, you know, a judge and i, if this or a on a regular basis um, but you know, one of the things that, you know, it's, they're like, it's far right. hard right populist, right? they've sort of a slogan, eyes all of these things here. and we never know what those things mean. okay. i guess, you know, the, the, the common denominator is that people are dissatisfied with the status quote. so if
5:51 pm
you're to set, if you're not satisfied with the status quo, your bar right, either populist, i mean, it's, it's, it's very juvenile in an inventory all the way they would present things. and of course, their puppets are important. ok, that always has to be in there. go ahead martin. that has to be, you know, i mean as long as you question any narrative your inputs and spoke it that's, that's now the norms these days. and it's just so sad, isn't it? that everything has been reduced to this incredibly low, futile, such as a level where there's no more debate. there's no clever people talking about the real issues. there's no people and more people asking the real questions. you know, if you put yourself in the button administration's position or there must be a lot, is people who are having sleepless nights thinking about uh, december because you know you're looking at now all time i'm a completely on president. if it goes on, let me look up the, how much confidence people have in the political system, i think is a survey just last week. we says 60 percent of americans don't believe in the
5:52 pm
system anymore, but we're not even talking about punches just the system. you know, and i think come, i'm also almost 60 percent believed that no more money or um should be sent to ukraine. so biden's got a lot of problems. you know, he is a guy who looked backwards. he always looked back and said, we shouldn't be surprised that we're talking about russia gate once again. but somebody to worship gate and this whole idea of election interfering, you know, i, i think is kind of fossil cool. i think i see is more of a joke because 1st of all, who's making these accusations, america who invented election into very, you know, i mean, this is the funny is to, you know, you, you guys have been doing it. you pizza, you americans have been doing it since the beginning of, of the, of a fortunately so you know, the end of the way, you know, where the america was interfering and in south america and central america. so it's a bit rich to pointing the finger at russia now, but if you look at the russians and, and cochin, does he need it? does he really need to mess around with these things? them?
5:53 pm
and they're the big worry of by didn't know the which i read about is that he's really worried that you would have this hacking leak. so what, how can league thing was like henry's e mails? and that's what they really worried about. they were due to a particular time at a certain point to 3 weeks before the election of a hacking league of that will toppled by them. i think buttons got bigger problems and that, you know, i think they're bigger issues that and people are wondering where the heat at these age and this is on any states. you should even be thinking about continuing. but for the russians, you know, into very no not, you know, i think, i think was a bless. bye bye. puck kitchen is just my personal feel things a plus for him to say the bathroom is preferred canada, so he couldn't cypress the trump because that might but for it and that she might get permission to the democrat comp. yeah. it might, might, might. yeah, that was kind of dabbling. i think it was just kind of being mysterious. i don't think a real i didn't really take it. very serious. i always fun. yeah. yeah. but, but, you know, georgia meeting the, you know,
5:54 pm
i have always looked at these things here. is it, it's not outside interference, even though the, the, the us now talks about not using the exact terms, but the, in the mean regime change in israel. ok is if that would make a difference of consider yeah, for the palestinians it wouldn't tear. but there is this enormous frustration that the elite is not going to continue to get its way. because irrespective of your, you know, if you are a trade you need his, the stolen this year or the you back to initiate or whatever more, more people same with the, the leads are presenting to us, doesn't work for us, but they're getting richer and richer. and they control the levers of media, of social media, all these things here. i mean, what is the ballad boxes the last spring? that's what 2016 was all about. you know, people voted for trump, you know, you know, what do you have to lose? well that, that phrase has more meaning now than ever before. george. that's exactly right.
5:55 pm
and i think that's why the leads us so obsessed about what's going to happen this year. so when they talk about this site, this voice of europe, what is it that they are so upset about the reading stories that, that they don't want people to read business or is there about farmers protest? the story is there about why a germans being through the roof for energy prices when north stream, which was that, you know, ready to go. this has a good, natural, cheap, natural gas to germany was destroyed, who destroyed the pipe. never was one of the questions that we us. and so how do at least respond with is this bluetooth built in is the one is putting these things out with. and that's the reason of this. it shows this danger of this information operation, but they don't have any evidence that there's any russian involved in any of this
5:56 pm
but, but yeah, i mean, it could have been the use outlets that they've giving us news. yeah, but i mean if there is, i don't know, maybe i'm being too simplistic about his, my meat that you mentioned, ignored stray mean, considering what we know isn't the enemy of the german people, the united states and not russia. i mean, you know, there is no evidence that russia was involved in it. and then we know from the swedes and the danes and it's, they've thrown into the op of the term. and so, you know, will tell us really what happened and they will not do it because they know the result that is exactly and it goes back to what we were talking about at the start of the show, which was what, how is it the 18 months on and you still have no idea who blow up north stream, but you knew with an off. now the ice is an only ice is, was involved. but also you have, you have this, this junction whereby the russians are these before was incompetent. they called correct down on the terrorism in their own country, but apparently they control every single thing in, in europe,
5:57 pm
just bipolar bands on the russian media. somehow the, you know, could well, you know, your opinions, americans that just complete the helpless before there's massive propaganda. also from moscow, imagine that it was the level of the such brilliance that that would be western media just collapse in abject the surrender before. uh, which is poisonous propaganda. is it like to put it? yeah. you know, martin, you know you, you lived in the valley of the beast or a long time in brussels here. i mean, with very little time left here. i mean, what's going on with my chrome? i mean, is he, you know, as he is he trying to style his internet pole in here? i mean, i, well, i'm truly one of the most bonus politicians of all time. i mean, this guy's been all over the place. okay. does he want to lead a bird to a brigade and up to the front and meet ukraine? now i see a lot, i say, oh, your family does a following the american line,
5:58 pm
you know, to the, to the, to suction, to a point to such an extreme, we're all basically in the pocket of bite. and that sounds ridiculous. i mean, not that does sound preposterous, but i think the macro on it really realizes that if from victory comes in december, then there is a strong likelihood that trump will throw the leave of madness and say, i'm going to pull america out of nature. now i know that you would do that. i think you might somehow suspend right there and he will be funded. yeah, he'll, he'll do something like that and that's enough to terrify guys like my chrome and shields. and other, your pain data is because they know then then the bill is going to be alice and alice completely, can we afford it? you know, with, with, with, with the situation now our economies and such a mess? you know, so i think come, we're living now in an age where there is no shame anymore for wisdom leaders to just openly lie and fabricate media stories. even if it's about themselves. if you
5:59 pm
look at the picture of metro function to back, remember that zip that picture, these press people to look at the size of his biceps. and i'll go online and look at the real sizes by 6. i mean, the most shame, shame, we're just making this be a soft as we go along every single day. because we leads like macro on us. fear the time is up. yeah. and they know what their time is up. that's why they have to have a blame it an outside power, and that's russia. alright gentlemen, that's all the time. we have one thing, my guess in budapest and merit cash. and of course i want to thank our viewers for watching us. here are the so you connect some remember prospect rules. the the
6:00 pm
breaking news around confirms that dance up to revolutionary guard, general $105.00 officers in and this really strikes on the are really in consulate in the syrian capital. also a head, the crane range done rockets and the russian city of belgrade, entering 9 civilians and hitting residential buildings. brushes, federal security service, say is the terrorist suspects lifted in sundays, raven, southern russia were directly involved and the focus to the whole massacre with one of the detained, admitting of another attack, was being prepared. we were planning a terrorist attack here on the bank of cas, b, c, d or in the victory.
