John Pilger 74


‘I can’t breathe’ UK & John Pilger on CIA torture, Sydney terror & nuclear war



Published on 20 Dec 2014
Afshin Rattansi goes underground with a roundup of 2014. John Pilger warns of a ‘real possibility’ of a nuclear war between Russia and the US, with Western coverage of Ukraine where the truth is ‘so inverted.’ He also points out media bias over the CIA torture report, which Britain has always been ‘masters’ in, and questions the need for force in the Sydney Siege. Adrienne Makenda Kabana, the widow of Jimmy Mubenga, who died whilst being restrained by G4S officers, and Deborah Coles, of INQUEST, who have been providing support for the Mubenga family, join us to discuss the controversial case of the man who 20 people claimed had screams of ‘I can’t breathe’ ignored. And Hollywood veteran Rupert Everett argues more has to be done to protect sex workers as he accuses companies and councils of a ‘land-grab’ in Soho.
