00:00:00.000
Hello, my friends. I'm coming to you live from the streets of Davos, Switzerland,
00:00:03.940
where the World Economic Forum is meeting. I want you to get the video version of this
00:00:08.500
program because I want you to see what it's like here. Just go to rebelnewsplus.com and click
00:00:13.540
subscribe. It's eight bucks a month, and you get the value for it for sure. But more importantly
00:00:18.240
to me, you help keep Rebel News alive. That's rebelnewsplus.com. Thanks.
00:00:30.000
Tonight, boy, did we get some VVIPs on camera here at the World Economic Forum. It's January
00:00:47.260
You buddy for freedom! Shame on you, you sensorism bug!
00:01:00.000
Well, hi there. I'm on the streets of Davos. I guess the way to look at Davos is sort of
00:01:06.960
like Banff, except for a lot harder to get to than Banff. And Banff, they bought up every
00:01:13.000
single hotel room and Airbnb within an hour's drive. And the they, of course, they bought
00:01:20.480
it up is the World Economic Forum led by Klaus Schwab. It's almost too perfect that his father
00:01:27.100
was a Nazi industrialist, actually moved to Nazi Germany to run a factory for Hitler.
00:01:34.340
That supervillain look and sound he has is too much. Maybe that's another reason that
00:01:38.280
Chrystia Freeland likes him so much. Chrystia Freeland, in town today, we were looking for
00:01:42.660
her, but I think she's decided not to walk on the streets. She might be scrummed like she
1.00
00:01:47.940
was by our friend David Menzies, uh, a few days ago.
00:01:51.180
Why is your government supporting Islamo-National media?
00:01:55.180
What? What are you doing? You're under arrest for assault.
00:02:00.180
Why are you pushing me? You're under arrest for assault.
00:02:03.180
I should tell you that we've had lots of scrums on the streets, and police have just been
00:02:07.500
a few feet away, and not one of them has moved a muscle to stop us in any way. And the reason
00:02:14.180
for that is here in Switzerland, as opposed to Canada, as opposed to Australia, as opposed
00:02:19.000
to the United Kingdom, the police actually respect civil liberties. And in fact, I find
00:02:23.800
this one next fact endearing. The police here are shy. They're shy. You go up to them. They
00:02:30.780
sort of say, don't talk to me. Don't record me. I have my privacy. And they're not saying
00:02:35.600
it out of weakness. They're saying it out of an assertion of their place in society and
00:02:38.980
their privacy. I find that very touching. And I sort of wish the police had that light touch
00:02:43.500
back in Canada. Let me tell you, it is extremely safe here in Davos. You can imagine how safe
00:02:49.220
it is, given all the VVVIPs in town. They don't need that heavy hand that you're seeing
00:02:54.580
in Canada. But that's what it's like on the streets of Davos. But in these pavilions and
00:03:01.180
in the secret conclaves and in the political congresses, or they're talking about a lack of
00:03:08.520
freedom, they're talking about destroying freedom. Of course, they don't say it. Tyrants never
00:03:12.400
call themselves a tyrant. Tyrant call themselves a savior, solving problems. So they don't talk
00:03:17.560
about censorship here. They would never use that word. They talk about misinformation and
00:03:21.940
disinformation. We scrummed various executives from Facebook and Google and YouTube. They would
00:03:28.860
never call themselves censors. They would call it public safety. That's what they would say. It's
00:03:33.900
the same excuse they used during the pandemic, too. Speaking of which, I don't know if you saw this,
00:03:38.560
but they're talking about infection X or pandemic X. That's what they're calling it. It's all the buzz
00:03:46.440
of the World Economic Forum. Especially the disease X, it's attracting a lot of attention.
00:03:52.080
And I hope you have seen in the social media. But it's not a new idea. The first time we used the
00:04:01.000
terminology was in 2018. The discussions were in 2017. I was just new director general. As you know,
00:04:12.000
we annually list the emerging diseases. And MERS could be one, Zika, Ebola, those we know. But then we
00:04:26.340
said, there are things that are unknown that may happen. And anything happening is a matter of when,
00:04:34.080
not if. So we need to have a placeholder for that. For the disease we don't know. That may come.
00:04:42.240
And that was when we gave the name Disease X. To have better prepared and to address the disease X
00:04:48.640
is the pandemic agreement. The pandemic agreement can bring all the experience, all the challenges that
00:04:56.360
we have faced and all the solutions into one. And that agreement can help us to prepare for the future
00:05:05.740
in a better way. Because this is about a common enemy. And without a shared response, starting from
00:05:13.400
the preparedness, you know, we will face the same problem as COVID. And deadline for the pandemic
00:05:21.840
agreement is May 2024. And member states are negotiating. This is between countries.
00:05:28.560
And I hope they will deliver this pandemic agreement by that time, on the deadline. Because
00:05:37.040
if this generation cannot do it, we're the lived community. We have the first-hand experience.
00:05:43.440
I don't think coming generation, the next generation will do it. It's like they're erotically
00:05:48.640
excited about the prospect. They've already named the next pandemic. Because the people here
00:05:55.280
did so well in the last pandemic. You didn't. You were locked in your home. You lost your job.
00:06:01.200
But the masters of the universe had the best years ever. I mean, the amount of wealth that, say,
00:06:06.400
Jeff Bezos of Amazon, I mean, his wealth doubled during the pandemic because everyone had to buy stuff
00:06:13.760
by delivery vehicle. And the tech sector boomed. Because people couldn't meet and talk to each
00:06:19.680
other one-on-one. They had to deal with each other through their phones and laptops. I mean,
00:06:24.400
have you ever heard of the app called Zoom five years ago? I hadn't. And I think I sort of follow
00:06:31.520
these things. But now, so all these tech people, of course, the pharmaceutical industry boomed during
00:06:38.320
the pandemic. And they all want that back. But mostly they want power and control. And you know
00:06:43.200
what scares me about all that? Is the same boss who ran the United Nations World Health Organization,
00:06:51.840
that same boss who oversaw the worldwide lockdowns, the worldwide vax mandates, the worldwide assault on
0.91
00:06:59.200
liberty. He's still around. And he was here today. And my colleague, Avi Yamini, went up to him
00:07:12.080
and spoke truth to power. Here, take a look at that video scrum. Boy, I wish I had been there. I was
00:07:18.480
somewhere else while Avi was doing the work. Take a look. Hi, Dr. Tedros. Can I ask you, Dr. Tedros,
00:07:26.720
how are you doing? Do you think you did well in COVID? And if you're going to do as well in Disease X?
00:07:40.320
Mr. Tedros, how are you doing? How do you feel you went in COVID? We're rushing to a meeting. Maybe later on?
00:07:47.040
We'd love to walk with you to the meeting. What's the meeting about? Is it about Disease X?
00:07:50.720
A meeting with UAE. With the UAE? Okay. Dr. Adnan, do you believe that lockdown should always be
00:07:59.360
rejected as a public health measure? Can we talk later? What time? I'm happy to arrange a meeting
00:08:05.520
with you, sir. Do you believe lockdown should be rejected as a public health measure? What, what,
00:08:10.320
what is Disease X? Mr. Tedros, what is Disease X? And when is China going to release it?
00:08:16.480
I would love to talk to you, doctor. Do you, do you apologize for what you did during COVID? And
00:08:35.120
should people have to go through Disease X with you now that you say it's 10 times worse?
00:08:39.520
Sir, it's a simple question. Do you condemn public health interventions like lockdowns and vaccine
00:08:43.840
mandates? The slogan is for the WBF agenda. Are you going to apologize for getting everything wrong
00:08:53.040
Mr. Tedros, it should be held accountable for its role in COVID.
00:08:58.000
Okay, sorry. Don't push me. Dr. Tedros, this is your chance to apologize to the world for your
00:09:06.720
role during COVID. Would you like to take it? We have to wait for you to get everything wrong in
00:09:12.720
Disease X. Do you think the vaccine mandates wrong? You got everything from mask mandates to vaccines
00:09:19.120
wrong. Do you want to apologize? Or do we have to suffer? In Australia, we wait, we had the longest
00:09:25.280
lockdowns in our city. And that was based on your advice. You don't want to apologize to Australians
1.00
00:09:32.720
or anyone. What about the current excess deaths? Do you want to talk about those?
00:09:38.640
Do you take any responsibility for people who died because of the policies you pushed?
00:09:46.560
It's rebuild, regaining. They say regaining trust is the theme this year. Are you part of the reason
00:09:52.480
why they've lost trust in the WEF and everybody's finally knows who you are and what you stand for?
00:09:57.840
Well, thank you, Dr. Tedros, for showing us how transparent you and the World Economic Forum really
00:10:07.760
is. Well, welcome back. And here's the man of the hour, Avi Amini, our chief Australia correspondent.
00:10:13.680
Did you stake him out? How did you know? I mean, this strip here, it's more than a mile long. Like,
00:10:18.720
there's a hundred little nooks and crannies. And we don't know where these people are going to be. How
00:10:22.720
did you know that Tedros, the head of the World Health Organization, was going to be where he was
00:10:27.840
when he was? Or was it just a random encounter? Yeah, we've, you know, we've been at that entrance
00:10:33.760
for hours, 10 hours probably yesterday. Today, something close. I would love to stand here and
00:10:39.120
take all the credit because that's what I enjoy doing. But the truth is, Kian, the cameraman,
00:10:44.640
spotted him and called out. And we just went straight to work because that's what we're here for.
00:10:50.560
Now, he didn't give a lot of answers. I think he said something about, well, book a time or
00:10:56.480
something. They never mean that. They just say that they would never in a million years
00:11:01.040
grant Rebel News a sit down interview. We took their word last time for it. Remember when Dr.
00:11:07.200
DiBaro, when he said the same thing to me, but he actually engaged. But he said, let's do a proper
00:11:12.160
sit down one. They never respond after. It's a way to avoid in the time. Let me show our viewers what
00:11:17.680
you're talking about. I really like this. And this is when Davos was, I think, in the summertime
00:11:22.160
or the springtime. It was a little less frozen. Here's Avi with someone, I think it's from the UN's
00:11:29.200
envoy, or it's the World Health Organization, or UN's World Health Organization. Anyways,
00:11:33.200
here's the video. I'll stop now because you're asking me quite aggressive questions.
00:11:37.600
Well, I think the whole... And I didn't ask to be interviewed. This is an interview done
00:11:42.000
against my approval. The vaccination is also... People are forced vaccinated. Do you think
00:11:49.360
that's okay? That's against their will. And WHO pushed the vaccine? I have never called for
00:11:58.960
forced vaccination myself. Do you realize... Do you think that they should drop those mandates
00:12:02.960
around the world? Do you think... I have said mandates. I've said vaccination mandates.
00:12:08.640
That's really a last resort. You know... What resort we have? What point should you ever force
00:12:13.760
somebody to have a vaccine? Any resort? I would not. I would personally never want anything mandated.
00:12:20.240
You see, you can't... Why is that not the WHO official position? I am not giving the WHO official
00:12:27.200
position. Gosh, you're an aggressive interviewer, but I'm still entertaining you. I appreciate it.
00:12:31.840
viewers can understand, and I hope this is not cut out, that I've been ambushed in the street,
00:12:38.160
and I'm responding to this gentleman's... I don't even know his name. I'm responding to his questions
00:12:44.640
because I believe that it is my duty to attempt to communicate. I appreciate that.
00:12:50.400
I don't mean to... I don't mean to be... We're just running fast, so that's why I... I get it.
00:12:55.280
I'm late for a meeting. All right, you can go to the meeting. I think you have to remember that WHO
00:13:00.160
is an organisation that exists, owned by 194 countries, and all it tries to do is to offer
00:13:07.760
the best advice it can to everybody, but it's up to individual countries to decide whether to follow
00:13:13.280
it. You have to let me go. Does it sometimes get it wrong? Well, I mean, I'm sorry. I'm not actually
00:13:19.840
going to say any answer to that question because there's been great reviews done of WHO's performance.
00:13:24.640
I guess, last question. I ask that because big tech that are here, they rely on you,
00:13:29.840
so if somebody says something online that contradicts what you're saying, what the WHO says,
00:13:37.280
So I don't... Again, I am not... Do you know I don't work for WHO? I'm an envoy on behalf of WHO.
00:13:45.520
And I try to do my... So you're distancing yourself from them?
00:13:48.400
No, I'm not distancing myself. It's just that you are asking questions that I can't answer.
00:13:53.600
All right. Thank you for your time. I apologize.
00:13:55.440
I would like to say to those of you who are watching this, you know, I would be very happy to
00:14:01.360
be interviewed normally about this. Can I get a card? I don't have any cards left. Where can I
00:14:06.800
catch you to continue this interview? Let me just write it down. So there you go. I don't mean to
00:14:14.800
give you a spoiler for how the story ends, but no, he did not grant a scheduled interview with Avi.
00:14:20.720
What do you make of Tedros? Sometimes I think, well, these guys must hate being scrummed by citizen
1.00
00:14:27.280
journalists. But then I think, you know, that's our point of view because we think we landed a few
00:14:31.440
punches. But this guy operates, I would use the phrase VVVIP, like not just a VVIP, but a triple,
00:14:40.240
very, very, very important person. He truly is in the league of presidents and tyrants and billionaires.
00:14:47.200
And like, he is a master of the universe. So part of me thinks he couldn't care less
00:14:52.960
what citizen journalists say about him. Even if that video, I mean, the video you did with him,
00:14:58.240
it's on its way to a million views easily. I don't think he cares because what are you going to do,
00:15:02.160
fire him? Look, I think on a personal level, you can read his face and you can see it in the moment.
00:15:07.600
He cared. What I find interesting is how many doctors do you know need? I know he's not a 100%
00:15:14.320
real doctor, but how many doctors do you know, people that use a title doctor, do you know that have
00:15:18.480
such security guards, big, proper, professional, that were probably the most professional security
00:15:23.920
guards I've encountered. And we've encountered a few here just trying to get these scrums. It's
00:15:29.600
very telling in itself. Well, I'm glad you got them. We've had some very interesting
00:15:34.320
interviews over the last few days. We haven't been able to keep up with all the editing because we're
00:15:39.680
out here on the streets and we could go and edit, but we just want to make maximum time on the street.
00:15:44.640
Like seriously, every single person you see walking behind us, most of them have a name tag on.
00:15:50.640
I mean, you can recognize with your eyes, famous people like Dr. Tedros. But for example,
00:15:55.840
I don't know if you saw the other day when I scrummed for eight minutes long, the president of the
00:16:01.200
Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, I had no idea what he looked like. So our team with eagle eyes
00:16:07.200
reads the name tags really quickly. And then we have to think of questions really quickly and walk and
00:16:11.840
talk and sometimes they duck away and run away. Other times they actually have thoughtful
00:16:16.480
conversations. It's rare, but it has happened probably half a dozen times in our stay here.
00:16:20.800
So that's what we do. We stand out on the street. Sometimes we go into different pavilions. We're
00:16:25.680
not allowed in the controlled areas, but on the streets, so many of these folks here are used to
00:16:30.640
having their guard down. Because I think other than us, three of our friends from True North are here.
00:16:36.240
And one alumni from Rebel News, Callum Smiles, is here. Other than that, I don't think there is a
00:16:42.560
single citizen journalist here. And so everyone feels like they're in a safe space from prickly
00:16:48.320
questions. Avi, last moment to you. What do you think of Davos this year, as opposed to last year or
00:16:56.160
the year before? This is your third time here. Is there any difference you can spot?
00:17:00.240
It's a lot busier. In fact, you see, we can't even get car parks. We have to catch a train because
00:17:04.720
there's nowhere to get in. And I think it's important for the viewers today. Like we get
00:17:07.680
all the credit because we're the ones that at the end you see. But it's the team. It's Lincoln,
00:17:12.640
it's Kieran, it's Benji. They're the ones actually spotting, finding, reading. Lincoln's become the king.
00:17:18.240
I'm looking at him in awe. I can't do that. So this is really a team effort. And the guys in Canada,
00:17:24.400
you know, like you said, we can't be editing everything. They're doing a bunch of the editing. So thanks to
00:17:29.200
everyone involved. And thanks to the viewers who are helping fund all those levels of this
00:17:34.800
operation, this mission that I think is so important. Yeah, we really do need help. We are
00:17:39.280
not a break even yet. And we had the economy class airfare to get here. But the number one cost was
00:17:46.720
that Airbnb. Like I said before, they booked up every hotel room, every Airbnb for at least 50 kilometers
00:17:53.520
away. And so we had to buy one that was expensive because I don't know, I guess we could sleep in our
00:17:59.040
car. But I don't think the police and military would allow that. And I wouldn't want to freeze.
00:18:03.280
Plus, we have to be ready to do our work. So if you can help us out, please go to wefreports.com.
00:18:08.720
Go there anyways, because that's where all our videos are. And we'll be adding probably five or
00:18:13.200
ten a day for the next couple days. That's our show for today. Until tomorrow, on behalf of us at
00:18:19.760
Rebel Headquarters in Canada and here on the ground in Davos, Switzerland, to you at home,
00:18:39.120
I'd recognize that voice anywhere. How you doing? I'm sorry. Not this morning. What are you sorry
00:18:49.520
about? Well, I'm sorry that I can't stop to talk to you. Let's not stop. Let's talk and walk. We've
00:18:53.200
got 60 seconds. I've got one question for you I've been thinking about. CNN and yourself especially,
00:18:58.560
a lot of credibility, a lot of reputation. But how can you ask critical questions here if you're paying
00:19:04.480
to be here? Like, CNN pays to be here. So how can you critically ask questions about the WEF?
00:19:09.440
I always find it's best to be very careful when walking, talking, and doing interviews,
00:19:14.640
particularly in snowy conditions. Because I think that you're avoiding the question. I think it's
00:19:19.920
because you're embarrassed. I think it's always very important to understand. Now, now we have two
00:19:25.920
against one. I'm not against you, mate. We're all on the side of the truth. At least I am. I know you are,
00:19:30.880
too. Now, let me ask you. Do you ski? I have a better question that's more in the public interest.
00:19:35.920
How can CNN report neutrally or objectively on the World Economic Forum if you're paying hundreds
00:19:41.680
of thousands of dollars to be here? You're part of the insiders. When you say we are paying hundreds
00:19:48.160
of thousands of dollars to be here, precisely what do you mean? Well, to get access to the inside,
00:19:55.520
CNN and the other regime media pay hundreds of thousands of dollars. The other, sorry?
0.71
00:20:00.320
Regime media. Excuse me? Regime, R-E-G-I-M-E. Excuse me? Excuse me? Yes. My god, you know, you are,
1.00
00:20:08.640
this is fascinating. You're not doing very well as an answerer. You're good as an asker,
00:20:12.640
but not as an answerer. You are paying more cameras to try and get me. I'm not trying to get your mates.
00:20:18.560
I'm trying to get an answer from you. It's different.
00:20:20.400
Lovely weather. Tell me, you've been here every single year. We bumped into you last year.
00:20:25.600
Um, this year the theme is regaining trust. Why do you think your lords here at WEF have lost so much
00:20:32.720
trust? Stop it. Stop it. Rephrase the question in a neutral fashion and you might stand a chance of
00:20:39.200
getting an answer. Like CNN does? You don't like it when it's, uh... Listen, I think you're a great
00:20:44.880
question-asker. I watch you. I love your voice. Answer my questions. What's your purpose? My purpose is to
00:20:50.000
find out how you can be an objective journalist, but also pay to be part of the team. But you're
00:20:54.880
assuming we pay to be part of the team. I know you do. Well, show me. All of these organizations
00:20:59.200
along here pay an enormous amount of money to Klaus Schwab. And do you see us along here? No,
00:21:04.160
you're in the inner sanctum. For which we pay for the facilities of studios and broadcasting. Sure. If
00:21:10.400
that lets you sleep at night, mate. We pay for that in all sorts of venues. You know what? We pay for the
00:21:15.440
facilities. And I assure you, sir, I assure you, the numbers you have for what we might pay for
00:21:22.160
facilities, i.e. electricity, tables. And access. No. Hundreds of thousands of dollars for tables.
00:21:28.400
Are they golden tables? Yes. Yes. There is no payment for access. Let me just say this again,
00:21:34.480
to be absolutely clear. The access is a bonus. The access is part of my job.
00:21:38.960
And you would never jeopardize that by asking questions that are too prickly. Oh,
00:21:43.680
you are clearly erroneous, sir. Show me a prickly question you've asked here,
00:21:47.200
at this place. You'd get booted out. Look at interviews with Klaus Schwab over the years.
00:21:52.320
We have become too much pessimists. Look, humankind was driven. There was a paradigm,
00:21:58.960
the narrative to take care of the next generations, to take care of the neighbors.
00:22:05.280
And we have lost his capability to a certain extent. How do we get that back?
00:22:11.600
Look, the world is also full of opportunities. My questioning of Klaus Schwab has been, over the
00:22:19.840
years, some of the more difficult and, if you will, uncomfortable for Wes. I don't believe that.
00:22:26.720
World Economic Forum's theme this year, rebuilding trust, where it aims to hit the target.
00:22:34.240
That's also the philosophy of the Davos Curling Club.
00:22:38.560
So when the skip says, here, you make the curl like that.
00:22:43.920
So that's why it's called curling, because you curl...
00:22:49.840
Look at what I say about Wes. Look at the articles I've written about Wes.
00:22:56.160
Yes. A lot of what happens here is a waste of time.
00:22:58.400
A lot of it is far too expensive. But there is real value in people coming together at the
00:23:03.200
beginning of the year to see where they stand on controversial or political...
00:23:06.320
With no democratic oversight, no opposition party, and no independent journalists.
00:23:13.920
It's a lobbyist festival. It's an unregistered lobbyist.
00:23:19.280
Right. You have now transgressed. You have followed me for the last however many minutes.
00:23:23.920
I've made it clear I didn't particularly want to be interviewed.
00:23:26.400
I've given you some answers. Now will you let me proceed?
00:23:29.280
You have to be in your safe space. You're about to go past the gate, but...
00:23:34.160
Why do you think we don't get access, but you do?
00:23:36.880
I really love the fact, really love it, that you will take whatever I say in however I say it,
00:23:50.640
You're doing it now, and either turn it against me, or against CNN, or against anybody else
00:23:59.120
that you deem to be unworthy of your approval. Well done, sir.
00:24:03.760
Go with the masters of the universe. Go with your people.
0.52
00:24:08.800
I'm looking forward to seeing how you edit this.
00:24:12.480
Excellent. In which case you will fully understand it's not particularly pleasant at
00:24:17.360
half past nine in the morning to be ambushed by one, two, three, four, five people.
00:24:25.280
Five. I don't even deploy that many people when I'm going to interview a president.
00:24:29.200
You've got that many people in the makeup room alone.
00:24:31.760
There's many criminals here we would love to hold accountable, and I think CNN often...
00:24:39.120
...supports it. CNN often is the one that props these criminals up.
00:24:44.560
I'm not going to call them a criminal. Listen, he's...
00:24:46.160
Not him, not him. I'm saying who they prop up here.
00:24:49.920
He's a journalist that when he has questions to ask, you know it.
00:24:53.600
He'll ask tough questions when he wants to, but he won't ask tough questions in there
00:24:57.920
because you have to be part of the club. And if you stink up the joint, you won't be allowed back in.
00:25:02.480
We know that because one of our colleagues was accredited last year. He was blackballed this year.
00:25:08.240
And I think that... I think we cut him to the quick. I think he was very thin-skinned,
00:25:12.800
which is unusual for him because I think we were getting a little too close to the truth.
