one. one wall will or will the coming up on our team stopping the nsa. california lawmakers propose a bill to curb and as a seal bay the bell block state agencies from cooperating with the nsa will other states jolene and a staffer to stop government spy the latest greatest wish for privacy. i had. and all of the us war in iraq and did two years ago. alcan has taken over the city of falluja. the us is sending drones to the iraqi government but not troops

for now. what this means for the reject coming on. did you hear about the polar for attacks. it's from the tv this week you've seen the mainstream media obsessing over the cold will take a look at how the media has made this cold weather hot story later and share a fan. my day in january he liked me and here in washington dc. i'm reservoir and you're watching rte the fall out from the everett second revelation is contained units at most some of the most significant changes could first be happening in the states and california state lawmakers have introduced a bill that would ban state agencies from working with the national security agency. the bill aims to prevent the nsa from signing on californians you would do this by denying nsa facility is in the state access to basic utilities

like electricity and water the bill also bans officials and agencies from cooperating with the nsa. those that violate the rules would be slapped that same chance at a press release senator. hadley you who introduced the bill sets of state funded resources should not be going toward eating the nsa or any other federal agency from indiscriminate spying on its own citizens and gathered electronic men electronic or manage data that violates the fourth amendment. from our end of the other takes a firm stance against the fads a spoke with us to head the current executive director bill of rights defense committee. i first and second if he could talk more about the goal of this now the goal of the bill is to force accountability on the nsa records has abdicated their role especially if guarding constitutional rights. congress has been busily dysfunctional been guarding the constitution and passing either legislative chops to a stranger to

the abuses or affect conducting effective oversight. this bill is the state taking the matter into its own hands and it aims to cut off the water cut off the electricity cut off the prosecutors and cut off the university's as sources of talent to fuel the nsa is next generation it's a very aggressive opportunity for other states also to raise their voices and i suspect the california will not be the last day in which was to the spill has a very aggressive very bold move for a state goverernment to take on the mass and the agency federal agency like the nsa the materialistic absolutely no wind this rather this is a truly bolted on it if anything california is asserting a constitutional position while the rest of dc is asserting basically a chinese or soviet position this is not a left right issue. illustrated by the introduction of the bill was both the democratic and republican state senator who teamed up to introduce it reflecting that this is not all of fringe issue has an issue that unites americans from all walks of life. all points on the political spectrum and i daresay all corners of our great nation

again we will see this also interest in other states the particular ones were i think the controversy will be greatest other states in which the nsa has data centers. so you thought maryland figure very prominently. in this campaign and i think that that's where the real battle is will be drawn and in those states people also been quite assertive in residents of maryland were dropping twelve foot banners off a highway overpass outside the indices front entrance a safe america close the nsa over the holidays. with dissent like that from so many different corners. i don't think the agency can withstand the pressure and lastly it is even if for whatever reason and you know if it's deemed to be an overreach by a job somewhere what this legislation can be very effective in doing is revealing that the congressional and federal emperor has no clothes and forcing congress forcing the courts to take a long over due action to defend constitutional principles of restraint in this. also i received demands for action like never before in the wake of these revelations by

edward snow again. do you think we would be having this conversation now that were not for the ear. in this massive leak that we're seeing that there's no question we absolutely would not use the exact same situation as co intel pro in a just earlier this week and a peace activists to unearth the fbi is domestic spying operations forty years ago revealed themselves in a snooty revealed itself a week after week broke into forty years ago the licence the exact same thing what they are weak prompted was a two year congressional investigation which caught the nation's intelligence agencies embroiled in a full frontal assault on the constitution. here we are forty years later it's a different federal agency committing a very similarly broad abuse in fact a far greater repeats right that the fbi was simply suppressing activist groups of all different. instead the movement in the war in vietnam the movement for women's rights the movement for a native american rights the puerto rican independence

movement you need. where's the nsa is monitoring everyone everywhere tightening its preposterous but frankly i sewed gasoline were so busy here helping us and mentioned earlier that on the federal level reforms have been slower that transpired you think that this is kind of the way that it's going to go that change is going to be happen on a state level. first you think this can set a precedent for other states policy it absolutely could set a precedent for other states. i think ultimately as to whether or not it's the state mechanisms that come to control domestic spying it that's really up to congress whether or not congress gets off its hands and passes a far reaching dramatic reform like the usa freedom act or better yet the surveillance tape repeal act that would take the matter out of the state's hands i think states will be much less interested in passing these kinds of bills after their summer assurances that someone is minding the store in washington at the moment but it's interesting that now we're seeing this debate happened in the national dialogue about transparency

about privacy. like never before won a brit some kind of related developments of late it is your car manufacturers will be required to install black box is in all new vehicles that kind of like the black boxes you hear about. after a plane crash the intention is to gather data me in camp government investigations insurance companies eccentric to determine what led up to that the vehicle accidents it was something that i've been taking a in that regard but the worry now lol we in the wake of these revelations is is could this be another avenue for surveillance absolutely there's no question that any kind of geo tracking device like the gps devices the police used for this kind of device or for that matter. aerial surveillance drones or automatic license plates can a salt into the latter two of which are in widespread use but local police departments around the country. those tools can absolutely be used to violate people's rights particularly by chilling their willingness of people to come out in for instance to a political demonstration

board meeting. these are assaults not on the rights of individuals who may or may not feel like they have something to hide this is an assault on democracy fundamental rights that enable our political process and we should all feel very concerned i wish i had that our executive director of the bill of rights defense committee. the last war in iraq may have ended two years ago of the country remains a war zone. the last depression to send drones and other weapons to the iraqi government after lk linked militants claimed the city of falluja. rt correspondent policy or has more on the struggle for power. well he faces is becoming increasingly wanted to come up with now head of the iraqi prime minister is encouraging for those who have joined the kind that cannot find he has hinted that the possibility of haunting me. these medicines if indeed they do so. they are facing a

massive it seems that has been owned by government troops. he was speaking in his weekly televised the trees and ugandan edit this to continue what we call with the sacred war against al qaeda no coupons which is known as the if not its stake in the back and they get on he also said that he would continue to finish the push to re take the heat emboss it is often shy and ramadi which yes was taken about five minutes. just as the new independent study what we see happening now is that how confident that it ends on twenty three times on the sectarian tension that is trying to incite a lot of assistance to the united states milk to the soul the lament of course if the united states occupy iraq for eight years and then without looking behind this may just that alien contact me at the same time some of the al qaeda and its

ministers from the mouth went and bought all the ports of heat coming from across the border in soviet the united states has the support of the syrian opposition which meant that he has a healthy sixteen this is not as man intends to race in the first case the united states is not saying that it will be sending emergency shipment of surveillance drones and the psalms to the back and attend to try and hide its eyes in baghdad that was our teens mostly air. sock more about the fight for felicia on doing now by nj caleb airtel clinical researcher at the university of birmingham hello there jake. so in many people die in ten wounded in felicia as a veteran yourself what's one thing her mind as you feeling it was worth it the city i think he did the story of the iraq war is very clear. the war they were initial objectives on the niceties did not achieve them the rest of us weapons of mass destruction. the war in general on bail to

stabilize iraq because i could look at today iran is twice as more violent as it places like afghanistan something like this on and i think that overall the maliki government in every other government in the future is very difficult problems whipped these up non state groups such as al qaeda and the largely because of complete distrust within the government and the people because of the greater part of sixty years of government abuse. grier with us the missing so the war wasn't worth it on i just would like to make a point on this development al qaeda. yet on when we read and shoot you the surgeon general betray us in two thousand seven al qaeda. we were able to suppress al qaeda rebels to manipulate al qaeda go away however they simply went into latency they were never exactly could be viewed in that sense of putting up white flag of surrender and they just went back into the shadows hiding waiting for the night state's elite so i think that there is

though a lot of myth and a lot of investigation about what exactly the surge did the surge did i bring violence down but it didn't get the joke i just wish i didn't wait and see which is why we see re re emergence only a thing as it is basically it was a matter of time before we got to the situation that we aren't day. yes it for precisely it was only a matter of time and does not really much that you love and the station could of done because the soho was agreed to under the bush administration which the u s troops out of iraq that there is nothing to do because iraqis can watch their team or not this is something a bit he would themselves be career resurgence of al qaeda in illusion is a spankin new couple because there's been abuses by. dish is largely shia government that as i slid a leader of the sunni population within embarked and on this attempt of al qaeda to come back is an attempt to reinvigorate on some tensions within the sunni and shia

populations says in general on continuing trend that we can result in two thousand and seven. either there is this another myth that somehow betray us win and it takes to ongoing tension snow we simply kick the can down the road for them to re surface later on. now i know people in the military members of the air force there are very disappointed and disheartened last people that though we are where we are today. these nice looking back. jake would we do now i need is there any clear solution one action in danny's shed the last week. i hate my keeper short doctors on a series of these united states use the duke and one on staying out of syria stayed out of iraq with our troops staying out of on the domestic political problems because at the end of the day. these are all the situations that local syrians for iraqis can fix and can bring a solution to the second thing is i do think that there is a general

interest within syrians iraqis and an ad for reprieve much everyone in the gall to suppress al qaeda and stop al qaeda from being a dog running around the neighbourhood team all over the place putting a black flags on making their territory show. assisting with intelligence assisting with our aid and development disorder. aunt kelly and other tribal uprising to show how is it i think that the state are making two very good and the state department should be empowered to do however on that yet military solutions here. did they beat policing a military component really needs to be done by iraqis. and because it's trying to buy done by foreign forces going to make the situation worse. perhaps unrelated news that's causing quite a controversy right now this new pop out from former secretary of defense robert gates and it's a scathing critique of the obama administration in his new new bach organ or read a quote from it there. the book is

entitled duty in latin and wire is on a secret at memoirs of a secretary at war excuse me. hillary told the president and our opposition to the two thousand sudden surge in iraq had been political because she was facing him in the iowa primary the president conceded bakery that the opposition to the iraq surge had been political. here the two of them making these emissions and in front of me. why is as surprising as it was dismayed and so i revealing that he suffers hand this political game even when it comes to worry or state id bill about the seabed how damaging is that the administration and they really should come as a shock. sorry i've never dated he knows about my presumably biking to cuba administrations and the wise step up from the bush administration but i'm still very much lackluster performance. there's no mystery that the bush admin is that the obama cabinet had

disputes about politically about everything between the invasion of iraq surge everything else and i generally think that secretary gates was released in the individual who did really really good critique inside and i think that all book points out his general distaste of how the cabin structure itself. i hate that secretary clinton and then the pres obama. definitely dispute with each other on policy matters nearly for politics because of the look of the two of them there's no doubt that obama and hillary simply wanted to win elections. that is why did they voted the way they did that is why it conducted there for casa which is never ever been in my opinion some sort of pop acts the statement data analysis about how best way to proceed forward in the war on terror because the job on the eve of the obama war spy but bob woodward that the administration is simply conducted its foreign policy

based on domestic appeal within united states and has never been about successfully accomplishing a task or a meeting with military officials and making such work can call me and results up for it. basically for our generation. where then after leaving office there appreciate you coming on this headache is always that was until there is no clinical researcher at the university of birmingham. secure. they were held as the nation's greatest and financed the new allegation say it was all a scam. over a hundred workers including york city police officers and firefighters are accused of faking depression and anxiety after responding to the september eleventh attacks prosecutors say they were coached the military doctors that they were permanently scarred from the tragedy. a recorded phone calls and photographs found on their facebook pages into a much a different picture a lot. you can see the former

keith vinyl is searching for answers after police shot and killed their eighteen year old skin. when spring lakes police officers were called the home of mark and mary wells ninth of january fifth to help them some deal and ninety pound teenager who had a small screwdriver in his hands. email riot police teams and in just seventy seconds into the confrontation shot and killed key. now miss north carolina family wants to know why either three officer is resorted to such extreme measure. he had given very good child. i had. i know how hard it is. update i'm carrying my second child and because i'm biting my hand and this was an item called for. and this is not the mental health patients should be treated. this is just one of numerous allegations of brutality coming out from across the country this week. on monday at nebraska family filed a lawsuit against thirty two omaha police

or investigate. in the other ninety nine percent police agencies reportedly either exonerated the officers dismissed the complaint says freelance determine that they did not have sufficient evidence or simply never post the investigation. so what if anything is being done to confront the issue you love excessive force. for now anyway it's up to individual police departments to regulate the actions of their office hours. watchdog groups like the aclu are also keeping a close eye on police departments. something this agent of change is yourself well after all a picture speaks a thousand words but one of the viral video can mean the difference between action and non action in washington that the pads artsy. five you probably know it's been cold out. in case you haven't noticed the media was there to remind you just how cold it's dead. but the wall to wall coverage rt corresponding on his hat on this icy enter tonight's far is that the media needs to

are. now more than ever the issue of government secrecy is up for debate the local station here in dc has proved that secrecy is priced as part of policy and the sea for washington and investigative reporter scott mcfarlane. but in a freedom of information act request to get some details on the navy aren't shooting. her response was an accidental an email sent to the reporter from the navy press officer clearly meant for other needy members and not for me d i is in anthony the official urges his colleagues to the flax and a bully in their class and nbc for puck in the memo may be fully unofficial robyn paterson refers to the reporter's request for tv art materials as a quote fishing expedition. and then an l patterson also suggests staff encouraged macfarlane to narrow his request for officially the memoranda by convincing the reporter his search would be costly. well
