a very warm welcome to you this is live from moscow i have heard more than two million people a year die from aids that's why this weekend experts and scientists from around the world to find a way to save more people mainly through prevention but there's also a group calling into question the accepted wisdom of where this deadly disease actually comes from and they're angry that no one's listening. is following the story. eighteenth international aids conference will begin and head in vienna bringing together around twenty five thousand policymakers scientists community work is activists and people living with hiv to discuss the latest developments in the stills but right now there's a two day conference going on looking also trying to take definitions and treatments of hiv and aids when the aids epidemic first hit the headlines in the

one nine hundred eighty s. it caused widespread panic for a singer he was one of the first diagnosed used it was a terrifying experience. steve turned sixty. the trust for information was just. right. kiran. chetry. so richard we've heard this to truly. be. considered the first. cigar since the discovery of aids three decades ago it's estimated a twenty five million people have died from the disease with eva sixty million people infected in that time according to the united nations u.s. scientists identified hiv as the cause and developed a successful test to detect its presence but this has itself been the subject to scientific disagreement some believe there are different causes of aids not just

hiv and cause doubt in the standard aids test which is based on the taking the presence of a hate hiv virus was you might think there are only a small number of scientists who doubt the hate hiv aids their way or the conference is a list of around two thousand five hundred names all the scientists who challenge the classic definition some to have different visas to treatment author and his doctor will turn into therapy to conventional aids fighting drugs so strong is his belief in these other treatment methods that he's written a perfect. twenty three years positive based on his experiences. trying every summer he deserves an explanation for the strengths the market reforms for can live for the troops. still want to transfer from so far stays dissenting from the conventional view that hiv causes a city can face a thin hostility from the scientific pit is not occurring with the mainstream hiv

theory of aids has even been compared to holocaust denial include a crime against humanity a science that there's a life has to have the permission to question a certain model of thinking serious thinking you know you don't bring in here a dying patient so that we have to act immediately and give him something we are discussing here we're scientists and medical doctors why should we not be able to discuss i'm very astonished at the reaction is sometimes so aggressive so that the official aids two thousand and ten conference will be one of the most widely watched aids events in the world every day some of the topics is likely to be discussed will be access to treatment as well as new technologies and hate hiv and injection drug now organizers have titled the conference right right now which they say emphasizes the central importance of protecting and promoting human rights as a prerequisite to successful response to the problem. still ahead this hour where

the truth is the plane crash that killed poland's president and many of the country's elite is surrounded by conspiracy theories. europe remains in the time to grip of a heat wave in moscow the temperatures have already broken several records this summer on saturday some parts of the capital have been sizzling thirty eight degrees celsius but as a test also reports for many muscovites the burning sun is just another reason to have fun. he was in the. right there just lying around in the sense that this was. the. other. work. the out of.

work. he was. but there. was relief. that was. worth worrying that he was the leader was. on the way. the severe heat wave across europe it's russian helicopters a fire fighter the council. and. the city to just move in the opposite directions and no tail makes the mission most people here in. iraq. a tough immigration law.

is being criticized across the u.s. for allowing racial profiling the north set to come into force later this month allows the police to stop and search people who would just suspected of being illegal immigrants critics say would lead to the targeting of ethnic groups well supporters claim the know will protect jobs but is also used on one linda in california found out if the illegals have gone up with no one to replace them. under the california. immigrant workers or picking the consumer that millions of americans and people around the world. it's a bank breaking job not everyone is fit to do most of these immigrant workers arrived in the united states illegally from a far as central america and many are oblivious to the political firestorm centered around that you know what's happened here for labor and you're going to leave any time i mean a lot this is about lawful citizens versus illegal invaders if you want to build

a fifty foot fence i'm in favor of the fifty foot fence there's a living million illegal immigrants in the united states. those could be american jobs those could be tax paying jobs but some industries especially california agriculture businesses don't want americans working for them. which translates into workers needed a spanish language sign definitely aimed towards immigrant workers a foreign based workforce that's making sure that. make it to your table there's no need for interviews or long applications undocumented immigrants simply show up at a field and they're hired many people including former president george w. bush i mean immigrant workers do the jobs americans to do at a farm in oxnard a city just north of los angeles neighbors aren't convinced the average american could step in their shoes even for a day. to hire

a. white person is too hard. i haven't seen any american here working here in the fields said you'll get it all came into this country illegally through the southern california desert he makes a dollar ninety for every box of strawberries she fills in now in an effort to employ out of work americans and obviously to prove a point the united farm workers union is embodied in american citizens to take the jobs of these farm workers wouldn't be surprised if after a day or two they find themselves appreciating those who are taking the jobs we stop by the unemployment office to find out if people who are out of work would be willing to take the job of an immigrant farm worker if a farmer came up. here as a farm worker. and now. that. if i had a job that got me out there got me some exercise but no heavy lifting it was at

least eleven dollars an hour i would take it but i doubt that it's usually a lot of heavy lifting it doesn't pay too much there farmers and they're willing to pay slave labor of course they have it. conservative radio host tony katz is among the growing number of supporters immigration crackdown he thinks a threat to the u.s. isn't just financial it over this is about people who may be coming with diseases we've already eradicated bring them back into the united states america has paid a significant price because of illegal immigration eric spence is the founder of we support arizona dot com he thinks americans will take the job of farm worker because an american will do what it takes to feed their family according to the united farm workers so far only three people have taken up there are for to take immigrant jobs in los angeles. are t. . well conservative author joe montana and human rights activists referenda grain and have crossed swords on this issue and also his washington c.d.a.

discussing if the new street immigration just. the whole argument is around the issue of scarcity when you got all of these folks on employed all of a sudden you've got to look for a scapegoat for the reason why folks are employed but that's not the reason why folks ought employ the reason folks on employed is because of the way the economic system was structured wasn't regulated fell apart now the issue that you need to understand is that there's always been this country because of the capitalist system a race to try to produce more or less that has always been the case so what happens is that you ended up basically outsourcing it's not that folks took jobs we gave away gobs we gave away jobs right there on the mexican border when we passed nafta and we passed caf to all the free trade agreements it was so that people of corporations based in the united states could escape all the kinds of regulations and all the kinds of labor laws that existed in the united states it's the illegals themselves who cause trouble as well as the businesses i mean business is not

innocent here business is as cost and the american taxpayer billions of dollars through skirting labor laws openly say reverend robert how do you respond and i'll get i want on a car going just to semantically question one is i don't call anyone a legal because there is no human being that is illegal they may be undocumented get a etc etc but it's a theological point of view to understand theological points of views and i guess that's what i think so because i don't have a reverend if you haven't already what you're talking about in terms of their anti immigrant for is a new word for racism and what you're really talking about are keeping people in the shadows so that people can continue to be manipulated by corporate entities and you never look at the kinds of international policies that the united states has created another place that creates a false immigration to the united states in the first place the reverend say that all he wants but the it's the word illegal it doesn't count if you're breaking the law you know there is such a thing as illegal immigration the left is doing everything they can to change the fight from illegal immigrant to immigrant the law that has been passed that has

been passed in the soon to be implemented in arizona really opens the door to racial profiling because if you believe almost. i would attract one of the engine oh everybody always say well the police can stop anybody without a reasonable cause well there's always reasonable cause when it comes to people of color to get stuff you drive into shining a car that's reasonable cause you look like you're in the wrong neighborhood that's reasonable that's always an issue this is just a new new new form of racism i just want to ask the reverend question should there be any border law at all should anyone be allowed to come here at any time for any reason and stay as long as they want the united states i despise can i get some clarity on that from here sir well the issue is i mean yes of course you want to have some regulation to the border but it needs to be home it needs to be jazz it needs to really deal with where you're going as a country and it also needs to take into account the kind of policies that you have put in place in other countries that creates a forced economic immigration well to forget we've got plenty more on our website

declared themselves satisfied with. findings. reports. the sounds of this crash were heard around the world when the plane carrying polish president lech kaczynski came down and smolensk region killing on board russian poland united in mourning. moscow showed it was willing to go out of their way to make sure investigation went openly and swiftly but some took the tragedy a lot more personally than others the progress of the investigation is to say the least minimal it is stalled polish investigators have received important documents and was happen for mushy it this situation causes suspicion however specialists in flight safety see no flaw with the conduct of the investigation they didn't have to cough in the corners because really the causes for this accident were very straightforward by which i mean that it's the kind of accident which has happened

many many times in the history of aviation it is the most common type of fatal accident in aviation history i think possibly. some polish people would have said look accident investigations take two years how are they so sure that they have got the answer after only a matter of months those who worked with russian investigation teams say laying the blame on them is not there there was in essence a joint investigation under way which i think was very wise both sides so i know that there have been an ongoing series of conversations and efforts because we do need to understand what happened to get your point so where does the doubt in the transparency of the investigation and the causes of the crash come from some believe politics could be in play their feet. are fond of believing that it was

russian factor and that the second. major factor is their. there is a strong media coverage on this issue and there is. a political fight between parties using this crash as it often goes what the tragedy that broke the ice between two people. just brought moscow and warsaw closer than they've been in decades and now that relationship will have to withstand conspiracy theories to going to college bar to moscow. i can it's going to check non-small the top stories from around the globe this hour and b.p. says the mouse it was on its ruptured well in the gulf of mexico appears to be holding firm the company's stop the flow of oil into the sea for the first time you since the dissolved it was caused by an explosion after a week in april pressure testing is now being carried out an engine is a monitoring to check that there are no further leakage is the oil spill has
