used to hold semifinals of the world cup their next stop is moscow to that they will go to social and cazan altogether thirteen russian cities will pretty stiff eighteen in this village their results will be announced on the second of december this year so in just a couple of months time meanwhile russians of course of very closely monitoring this bid many of whom hold that russia indeed will win after the inspectors came to st petersburg they held a brief press conference during which they have said that they're going to be very strict with questions and that russia should be prepared for that and to russian authorities have already prepared five hundred kilograms worth of favorite in documentation proving russia's credibility for holding the world cup of course of those the young football players who are learning only learning right now also very much looking forward for this decision to be made hoping it will be in favor of over russia and they will be able to take part is that in this major international

competition as i've ever been at the recruits. for these boys football is their life they train every single day they're just twelve you. years old and if the world cup does come to russia in twenty eighteen the hopes and expectations of a nation resting on bare shoulders pressure that would make others of their age crumble but for the boys at spartak moscow is youth academy discipline and desire and more important it's not the fear of failure that drives them is the fear of missing the chance to play in a world cup on home turf yes i really want russia to hosted twenty eighteen world cup it's the purpose of my life if we keep working hard we have a good chance of making the team but the training's no walk in the park before they can even touch the ball they must endure a punishing nonstop fitness routine for the first hour the coaches know the boys have talent but it's their hunger that's the key this man is no stranger to that he

knows what it takes to play in a world cup not a lot of it was a defender for the u.s.s.r. in the one nine hundred seventy championships bags of hercules you know i was gripped by a burning desire to see the world but how could i do that in those days so i told myself that i would be a football player i pledged that never in my life would i smoke a cigarette or drink a gram of wine or beer you know he never had the chance to play in a world cup at home but he knows it's something not to be missed is playing in front of your own fans hearing the whole country's support behind you is something you can't beat as a footballer you want nothing else i never got the chance but if these boys do it'll change their lives football's a matter of national pride in russia this is how the country reacted when the team reached the semifinals of the two thousand and eight european championships i found

hope this support will swing fief is vote in some of the football you lives on one of the most important thing is affordable is a national sport which is loved in every city and village in this country but. the found support here is unconditional they just want more to cheer about and no winning this bid will help it's got the university of the wood the ball a world cup at home would give the youth coaches an added impetus so that by two thousand and eighteen there are several talented young players to defend on are fresh and football with the emblems of pressure on their chests it's the only thing these boys adrenals are bennett r.t. moscow. it is five years or since israel pulled out of gaza amid scenes of violence as jewish settlers were forced to leave by their own government now settlers in the west bank fear very good face the same fate as part of a possible peace deal with palestinians artie's policy or reports. five years

on and the picture is still whole and israeli soldier pitted against israeli citizen israelis had hoped if i was throwing a thousand cities from gaza they'd be extending an olive branch to the palestinians but most underestimated the violence and heartbreak that would follow after the press summary of what some of the soldiers clearly went to the window and shouted and said why don't you come and knock on the door like normal people they told me your and recipe you were supposed to have loved guards are already the soldiers were crying the children were crying i was crying looked at the guards i looked at this and i said that's it it's over the awful of ryan lived in gaza with her husband and nine children for sixteen years until the last moment they refused to pack up and leave with nothing more than the clothes on their back assigned to their house was the only thing they brought with them. by of years ago most

israelis supported the withdraw but today more than half think it was a mistake throughout israel there are some dozen communities like this where gaza refugees despite the promises made to them are still living in temporary housing. and now in settlements across the west bank people are afraid the same fate awaits them sure goldstein has been mayor of the settlement block for eleven years he's furious with israeli premier benjamin netanyahu who in his latest bid for peace allegedly offered the palestinians ninety percent of the west bank if they agree to direct talks palestinian president mahmoud abbas is under pressure to give an answer in the coming days. if the government of israel. would decide to go out of there some are forming quitting suicide their with of israel if we're going to give them some or is it came minutes drive for a tank vehicle tearing drive it for ten minutes who can defend it these really

government spent more than two billion dollars evacuating eight thousand seaters from gaza it would need to remove many fifty times that number from the west bank a financial and logistical nightmare a more sort of settlement snipping type of thing until we. are eighteen thief numbers were the first location. was the for in therm maybe we could reach an agreement. for many of those two states and the palestinian sovereignty today more than ever israeli settlers in the west bank have the sympathy of the israeli public the last thing they want is a repeat of these pictures. to what the public say to normal. you know you know we're not going to do it like this. we're not going to disengage we're not willing to do any concessions it's time of the arabs it's time of the

palestinians to do their part in the game and while the israeli government contemplates another withdrawal the awful of rand still waiting to be reimbursed for her home she was promised a new life but he's still living in a caravan five years later policy r.t. keyboards and saw in southern israel. by keeping with that same story some say the situation in gaza after the pullout in two thousand and five has not improved and as political analyst dr holly alba susa says in fact israel is still controlling the region. what we have in gaza yet is still an israeli occupation because what had been in two thousand and five that was not an end of a q.b. she from me as a political analyst i believe that it was very very deployment for the israeli army and it has increased even more than before and this specially for the past three years especially after the election of hamas. form with the hamas government in in

palestinian territories in gaza no east bank and we have witnessed the war in the gaza strip at the end of two thousand and eight so we believe that life has become bitter things have even bad consequences of the long term because in illegal tim for some people saying gaza it becomes independent and we palestinians would have the responsibility of the gaza strip for others and foremost political analyst they believe here their israeli side would have the full responsibility and the gaza strip still under the israeli occupation up to now. and next here on our team progressive preparation. large scale immigration a relatively recent phenomenon in finland the country considers a special parliament to give voice to its new citizens. just as wildfires caused by a record heat wave start to ease russia's summer of extreme weather has taken

another twist the country's now bracing itself for hurricane force storms which have already hit the northwest up to one hundred thousand people were left without electricity after a massive storm battered suburbs in st petersburg uprooting trees overturning caused and flooding streets moscow and other regions are gearing up for heavy winds from a cold front moving southwards the front is expected to reduce temperatures from a current thirty degrees celsius to fifteen degrees the extreme weather has seen emergency calls hit record levels. reports. hearing tina and yvonne haven't left their part and for days the husband and wife struggle with the daily heat wave blasting their home but it's better than even thinking about going outside east. side i haven't been out in the streets for days the heat is so difficult for us it's hard to breathe and your hearts can give your

trouble with no air conditioning and only one hundred eighty u.s. dollars per month pension even when his wife can only rely on their daughter she hangs what drapes new doorways and congress appearance with damp clothes and into temp to ward off the heat and the trouble it brings. nice and cool. this couple is pulling through thanks to their daughter but many others are not moscow's prolonged heat wave has endangered thousands of lives with the brunt of it all on the elderly the merchant services are getting twice as many call outs daily as they would in any other month but there were still being that not every patient gets help in time there are no official statistics on how many people have died in the past two months but many still find a way to speak out. ambulances are bringing old people in huge numbers all of them are suffering from heat stroke in the hospitals all windows and doors are open so

the smoke is everywhere in this surgery rooms in the intensive care unit a recluse the windows but they're still full of smoke it's forty degrees and the smell of rotting bandages is everywhere and medics are working around the clock trying to get every patient on time even private healthcare has seen an increase in calls. we get a lot of calls and some not from regular clients which we handle is all we will staffed and will stocked the ambulance it's off sirens screaming but without the weather on their side even the medical men may find themselves fighting a battle field when. gasoline is r r t moscow. the commander of u.s. and nato forces in afghanistan says he is not bound by the july two thousand and eleven date set for troop pullout general david petraeus said he may advise president obama not to go ahead if he believes it's the wrong time american public support for the war is at an all time low july was the worst marker for coalition

troop deaths since two thousand and one with frustration brawling about we occupy afghanistan politicians in germany have even suggested talking to the taliban and terrorist organizations to avoid more violence but frederick william engdahl author of the bestselling book century of war told r.t. that instability in central asia is actually in america's best interest. i get comments about pulling out by july of next year are simply ludicrous as petraeus indicated the nato troops and certainly the u.s. force command are not at all planning to pull off because the afghan occupation you have to understand it has nothing to do or very little to do with afghanistan or say it has to do with russia it has to do with china it has to do with the. central asian countries and spreading what some of called a thirty years war scenario to prevent the independent development economically of china russia and the c.o.

shanghai cooperation states so this is all politics on the part of obama about pulling up next there's even a question of what is the taliban and afghanistan today because. the u.s. with a pentagon press releases call any quote unquote opposition groups that are trying to get occupy occupation armies out of their country after thirty years of war they call them the taliban automatically answer very unclear whether this is an organized force as it was before. october two thousand and one but the german politicians in the conservative wing are really quite desperate at this point because they realize that this is a highly unpopular war german soldiers are coming back in body bags and. they can't fathom the sense of it so they're they're fishing for some kind of dialogue the human rights thing is is simply a face saving device which means that they. are pretending to do something or in

reality they're not going to do anything. large scale immigration is relatively new to finland but the countries are deciding on a bold new step on how to integrate its newest citizens proposals for a special parliament are under consideration but are provoking intense debate you've got peace going off reports. again all the right moves has become a success two decades ago he left iran just. met his wife and moved to where he continued his education camp here then i came direct i was. very busy so i didn't have a lot of stress i get a lot of sport than saying. i tried my written off life this speaking six languages it's not been difficult for most in to integrate

now he has a two year old daughter and a home in helsinki but not every immigrant in finland is as successful. as a local newspaper and claims newcomers are often denied jobs simply because they don't have a finnish name born abroad to a finnish mother she joined up with other immigrants to propose a parliament to fight for the rights of newcomers. finishes cited systematically not ready to understand that it's changing and even though currently the amount of immigrants is only about three percent of the population if measures are not taken out the problems are only going to grow more and organizers say the immigrant parliament will be an independent nonpolitical organization but not many friends including this member of parliament from the finnish fork party supports the project i don't think it's a good idea for immigration groups and the great people who.

are coming into play on down they are not predictable many immigrants or refugees from troubled regions like somalia and iraq and some of them don't speak finnish that means they can't find a job so they live on state handouts it's provoked a backlash from right wing nationalist in the country authorities support. the immigrant problem is seeing me help stop the rise of three show he treats we would like to do the policy so that we can also hear their voice. so i think that this policy and he's a good idea because they say gives voice. to my parents and they can act as. if i said no what that voting is. every registered immigrant who's eighteen and his move in food for at least two years we'll be able to take part every person sure we have the right for a decent life and to travel but having this right doesn't mean abusing it living by

the means of others' feelings may be new to the immigration issue but it's long become a part of the reality for many other european states and now the time has come for this country to find its solution before these so far emerging problems turn into a nationwide crisis. or to be healthy. now to some other stories making headlines right now around the world almost all passengers aboard a boeing seven thirty seven in colombia have had an incredible escape after it crashed following a lightning strike only one person among the one hundred thirty one on board died although five others injured the jetliner broke into three pieces on landing with the region's governor saying it was a miracle that more people didn't die the pilot's been praised for preventing the plane from colliding with the airport building. in northwest china five hundred people remain missing in a landslide which has already claimed twelve hundred lives

a massive recovery effort is underway to remove debris after the disaster triggered a week ago by torrential floods soldiers using heavy machinery and explosives are now rushing to clear block rivers and mountain sides more heavy rain is forecast over coming days adding to the urgency of the work. and in south korea peace activists have gathered in the capital seoul to protest over the country's joint military exercises with the u.s. over eight thousand troops are taking part in the annual computer simulated war games which started on monday the exercises which do not involve field maneuvers began despite threats from north korea has warned it will launch a massive attack on the u.s. and south korea if they proceed with the exercises. bid for the presidency of haiti made headlines last week so our jesus and i went to meet his fellow u.s. rapper immortal technique to ask if the music industry can offer more than just

empty words to haiti watch this interview in just a minute. you took the incentive to help raise money for so many hundreds of thousands that are still in need why did you feel that you actually had to fly over to haiti to see the dispersement of funds i went to. this club. that was gracious enough to involve themselves in the cause to

support the haitian people. and they said we want to get the word out about what's really going on here you know so the best way to do that is to. pamphlets full of statistics or to just study them and books but also to actively participate in them you know i think that's the line between an activist and a revolutionary where you have to involve yourself a lot more in the particular cause and have the most serious commitment sometimes i get accused of being too serious but goes with the territory i want to ask about a few things that you saw there in the children the orphans from what i read you actually were holding think a one year old in your hand and then when you were done holding out of a child past that one year old off to another level you're all talking about that experience and what you saw in terms of the kids in the orphanage there the thing

that struck me is how young of a country it is and when people come to me and asked me you know what is haiti need as i say that haiti needs schools they need education they need to be able to learn how to be self-sufficient self-sustaining and to not always be reliant on a foreign made which is equivocal to large corporations and large countries paying themselves and saying that they're donating money to haiti i read that you said foreign aid is this is it deceptive i'm not saying that all of it is i want to clarify that i'm in no way shape or form ungrateful or i'm trying to discount the support that. haiti has gotten from every major i did see from what a country to a corporation because they have saved people's lives they pull people out of rubble they've done an extraordinary amount of things but i think that there is a level of corruption that exists to meet the surface when we talk about foreign aid when we talk about donating to

a cause when we talk about the fees that are incurred for certain aid organizations that have what is it forty percent off the top they go to their expenses and i think it's a little disingenuous but that's my opinion but when i. look at haiti and what it signifies when i see that someone who is eleven years old worrying about raising three other kids around them younger than them it really. struck a cord according to the new york times only five percent of the rubble has actually been removed do you see that with your own eyes what did it look like when you were walking through absolutely as you go through port au prince and the surrounding areas and you'll see buildings that are still collapsed their. counterpart to the white house is still in shambles broken down people are trying to build rebuild their own independent businesses. on the rubble itself you know that making every

desperate attempt they can to take. whatever structure is still left and build something out of it. when we talk about their safety and what their living conditions are what i saw is that the people who are inside the tent cities there are usually about two or three families per tent so when you look at those tents it's a little misleading because it's like oh they're fine now they have a tent you know no they don't and that's fine you know what happens when hurricane season comes out of those tents going to hold up to that you know i think that there is something to look at in terms of a long term vision of what is going to happen to the country who's in to be in control of it now it's it's a military state it's a police state run by america and the u.s. and the u.n. at interchangeable entities sometimes i want to ask you about that because you were a little harsh in terms of the united nations that what it has done or has not done

for haiti despite the promises that have been made. by the united nations and independently by the united states what do you think the interests are when we talk about people's interests and whether they're genuine. it's hard to say i'm sure some people's interests are very much genuine i'm sure there are people on ground level and people who are below that is executive chain that sit there and say you know what i'm trying to do something good for the people i'm trying to go out there i lost my in order to make that happen but i don't think they're the ones that desire the program the ones that designed the protocol you know just the worker bees very well paid worker bees but they don't know how the hive is being formed do they haitians believe from what they told you that the u.s. is going to fulfill the promises that it has made in order to help them help them

rebuild the younger ones are they really are very positive people. no matter what life throws at them it's like we're going to get through this and if the u.s. is willing to partner with us and help us then hopefully they'll state they'll stay true to their word so they're hopeful whereas when i talk to some of the. old a you know they look at it as oh here's the country they kidnapped or at last president has a country has been involved in supporting you know brutal dictatorships for decades really here to help haiti right now has an opportunity to completely rebuild that system. from scratch what do you think is going to happen and how do you think it's going to happen it's a country that lives under military occupation like a list the haitian people of proactive about taking control of it themselves they will find.
