1
00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:05,920
Speaker 1: The Worldview with Adam Gilchrist cat up with news from

2
00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:10,399
Speaker 1: elsewhere in the world. Adam, it's almost what thirty days

3
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 1: now of this war in the Persian Gulf, and it

4
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:15,200
Speaker 1: doesn't appear there's an Indian sight.

5
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 2: No.

6
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:21,600
Speaker 3: And indeed the stated aim, of course was regime change

7
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,160
Speaker 3: and people rising up, and the regime might have changed

8
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:28,520
Speaker 3: a bit, but it's only changed to another iotola. So

9
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 3: how does that work in Donald Trump's mind. We also

10
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:35,880
Speaker 3: hear him specifically talking about carg Island. We've mentioned this before,

11
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:40,879
Speaker 3: this Iranian oil refinery, and how a deal could be

12
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,839
Speaker 3: made very quickly, but that he's considering seizing the island.

13
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 3: And indeed there are more US troops now going into

14
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 3: the Middle East, that not enough to invade Iran, but

15
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,639
Speaker 3: maybe for a little bits of it, little bits of islands.

16
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 3: We're also seeing the Israeli operation expanding as well as

17
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 3: striking targets in Iran, they're striking more target it's inside Lebanon,

18
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 3: and indeed ground forces are going across the border now.

19
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:08,400
Speaker 3: Three journalists, by the way killed in Lebanon and two

20
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 3: aluminium plants hit in the UAE, one in Abu Dhabi,

21
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 3: one in Bahrain. Amongst the biggest aluminium plants in the world,

22
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 3: so the knock on effect of that could be immense.

23
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,400
Speaker 3: Then not being put out of action, but Iran is

24
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:24,120
Speaker 3: certainly showing it can still strike at stuff too. On

25
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 3: we go, as you say, day thirty into day thirty one.

26
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:29,319
Speaker 2: Where do we go from here?

27
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:31,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think one of the questions that we'll be

28
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 1: asked is whether or not these negotiations, whatever form they

29
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 1: are taking, are they in good faith. If more troops

30
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 1: are amassing towards Iran, and let's stick with the story

31
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 1: in their sense. Donald Trump, of course, the US president,

32
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: facing mass protests in the states of the weekend.

33
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 2: No Kings, Yeah, the No King's rallies.

34
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 3: We've seen them before last June, after those strikes against Iran,

35
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 3: remember those, And they're October and now again planned across

36
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 3: all fifty US states. I think that all states were

37
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 3: covered in the end, but three two.

38
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 2: Hundred events were planned.

39
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 3: People marching through the streets of Washington, New York, Chicago,

40
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 3: Los Angeles, et.

41
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 2: Cetera, et cetera.

42
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 3: And there were some good turnouts in some of those,

43
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 3: not so good in other parts. I've seen some pictures

44
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 3: showing actually a sparse crowd. Shall we say it's not

45
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 3: just about being anti Trump, because this is not just

46
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 3: about one personality, though of course it does.

47
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,239
Speaker 2: Rather overarch a lot of stuff.

48
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,240
Speaker 3: It's also about the policies, so about freedom of choice,

49
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 3: the abortion argument in America, other arguments about immigration and

50
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 3: customs enforcement. So people were there for policies as well

51
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 3: as personality, and organizers had suggested there were five million

52
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 3: at the first series of rallies, seven million at the second.

53
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 3: I don't know if they hit their stated target of

54
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 3: nine million. Maybe not, maybe under that, but maybe Also

55
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 3: people are feeling the effects of of war and travel

56
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 3: is expensive, and say you're not necessarily just going to

57
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:09,360
Speaker 3: pop out and flex your democratic muscle. Also, there is

58
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 3: an easiness I know amongst some Americans whether they felt

59
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 3: safe going onto the streets to express their dislike for

60
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 3: Donald Trump.

61
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:19,679
Speaker 2: That would be another issue.

62
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: Talking of safe adam is a potato that's from out

63
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 1: of this world.

64
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:28,960
Speaker 3: Safe to eat, Yeah, I very interesting. Potato grown on

65
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,519
Speaker 3: the International Space Station. Two films involved in this, I

66
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 3: would say. One is stated by the NASA astronaut Don

67
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 3: Pettit the reason why he carried out this experiment was

68
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 3: the Matt Damon film The Martian, remember that when he's

69
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 3: stuck on Mars and grows potatoes and lives off potatoes

70
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 3: for about a year and a half. I think it

71
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 3: is nothing but potatoes. So he wanted to sort of

72
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 3: partly follow in those footsteps and grow what he's called

73
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 3: spud nick one.

74
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 2: Well, of course it is. It's in space.

75
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 3: It is the most worrying, hideous looking potato you will

76
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 3: ever see if you see a picture online. So it's

77
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 3: a potato that has sort of sprouted out, and because

78
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 3: of zero gravity, the root, the tubers, the roots don't

79
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 3: sort of stay in the right place. They're all going

80
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:17,159
Speaker 3: off for higgeldy piggle. It's also gone purple. So is

81
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 3: that an oxygen level thing? Not sure, but anyway, it

82
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 3: looks absolutely hideous like the alien life form in the

83
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:30,119
Speaker 3: Jake Gyllenhall film Life If you've ever seen that. Spoiler alert,

84
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 3: the ending does not go well for humanity. I think

85
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 3: we need to leave that purple potato up there. Don't

86
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 3: bring it down here.

87
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, so we're gone things, and now it's back from

88
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 1: out of space. We will survive, Adam, we will survive.

89
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 2: Not very appealing. Let's put it that way,
