extradition. the man suspected of organizing the two deadly blasts in the schools metro was linked to international terrorist organizations for no more than just a few minutes. new revelation movie online whistleblower wiki leaks promises to release the secret cia documents just a month from predicting the lives of thousands in this u.s. mission phone it was. a very warm welcome to you this is a line from moscow with me honest have it media is claiming a russian businessman wanted for smuggling in the us may have been involved in the nine eleven terror at times it's reported that american secret services have proof big to boot have been all mean the terrorist behind the it's hangs up in
1:03 pm
a lot of our reports today a tight television channel showed a small. story that was actually more similar to a short propaganda style documentary that basically documented the life and alleged dealings of the russian businessmen and also quoted some unnamed american authorities who are allegedly in possession of evidence that proves victor booth was involved or somehow is somehow involved in the nine eleven terrorist attacks in the united states of course this is something that has just surfaced there has been no mention of it whatsoever leaving many analysts to wonder why exactly is the united states had this evidence before hand they didn't make it public because surely that would have strengthened their case against victor boot and maybe have even made the criminal court which earlier refused boots extradition to swing the case their way and i actually believe the. it's that they have so the fact that
1:04 pm
this evidence has just appeared when the united states are clearly facing difficulties with the extradition process this elsley of this is leading many to wonder what kind of evidence this is what whom what kind of sources. is the thai television channel actually relying on and why this information is surfacing just now of course victor boot is waiting for a decision from the thai authorities about his extradition date the united states wanting to extradite him as quickly as possible following the decision on august twentieth allegedly an especially chartered plane traveled all the way to thailand and it is currently stationed at a u.s. air force base in the country waiting specifically to transfer mr booth back to the united states however thai authorities do say that because the united states filed new charges against the russian businessman those charges now have to be processed criminally in order for the man to be extradited the united states of course
1:05 pm
realizing that they've basically tripping up their own case are now trying to withdraw those charges but what this will lead to and how this story will develop and nobody knows so far i'm brian johnson toma for moms that's one thing expert for the u.n. security council but he's been extradition is a matter of when if. i'm not quite clear why the americans have fought this case so today actually maybe just about the money they spent on the sting operation but certainly they're very very keen to get back to to the states. the consequences that will follow i think ritu point one is that the reason why they've dropped the money laundering charges may be that they can concentrate purely on the sting operation where victor is alleged to have agreed to supply weapons to the plant if that happens then the court in america may also be directed not to look at anything other than a sting operation so they will not be able to bring into court and to open court
1:06 pm
the many times when victor was of some service to the pentagon or whoever else i think that picture will go to america he will go on far in manhattan and he will be found guilty on the narrow charges of of agreeing to supply the fark i don't think that's necessarily fair but that's what's going to happen. well you know with the we've got plenty more ahead for you this hour including music to most scary as it is that the legendary irish rock is easy to bring the world's most expensive concert to the city with some eighty thousand people backing until. now the head of russia's federal security service says a newly discovered documents link the man believed to be behind the mosque a metro blast with international terrorist organizations for the details as calls live downtown d.c. for the spinoff he got a wall significance of this find. well basically these secret documents
1:07 pm
don't let me contain information about me and my bias contacts in the proper search but also international context with international terrorist organizations the our forty's claim also about the now knowing that the last phone told me that owned by god also a cell phone was international as well though the would not disclose the name of the country it was made with all of this is according to the head of the russian federal security service and basically this announcement and the findings of these documents link him. to international terrorist organizations that the documents were discovered last week as a result of a special operation would probably be the standard ducted by authorities and which bothers them so they still haven't got it where does that lead us in terms of the investigation into the terror attacks on the mosque a metro back in march. well first of all by gallup himself is a major figure he was suspected of having organizing the deadly blast in moscow
1:08 pm
metro march twenty one two female suicide bombers attacked the two metro stations i believe he left the morning rush hour killing forty people and injuring several hundred hours all the responsibilities also suspected of committing another blast in the dystonic just we've got. you're not targeting a police station also. organizing around thirty year tax authorities in which several policemen were killed and basically these documents also. information be presented once and targets of terrorist attacks which got a. lot so it's definitely going to help the investigation the federal security service says that it now is the means of all the people connected to the people wants to ask them after all the end of march and to us to be sure that. many plants promptings. now more than forty people have been killed in
1:09 pm
a string of bombings that have rocked iraq and baghdad alone for twenty bomb exploded in at least twelve separate incidents with the times comment just a day after the u.s. announced it happens to the last of its combat troops however fifty thousand remain to advise iraqi forces although it's the lowest number soldiers since the start of the war in two thousand and three but today's bombings are raising questions of the iraqi government's ability to deal with an ongoing insurgency and the bottom up tough in the arab noise association says the bombings may actually be the iraqi government's way of getting u.s. troops to stay. off reasons why it should happen and various theories but one of the i think one of the more credible one is that the government is actually involve itself in it in order to prevent the americans from pulling out or at least the troops they believe they must be gauged in military and use of force not just
1:10 pm
training as it was claimed by the americans although people are talking about forming a government whether it's allawi whether it's mali kid what have you that is really not the situation iraq has been dismantled there is no government there is no. in iraq the prime minister cannot leave the green zone there is no military or police in iraq because there are all militias who have been recruited to wear the same uniform but there are legions is not a national one but their allegiance to their faction or to their group or to their tribe now trying to establish democracy by military force is a hopeless task so says political theorist john donne he believes the process of change peaceful you can watch the full interview next hour but here's a quick preview. the process of democratization you could say is progress towards a very good outcome which hasn't actually come out anywhere in the world so far so
1:11 pm
if you have an ambitious goal of democratization what those two experiences taken together of taught us is that it's absolutely hopeless to try to move fast in direction of that kind. bombing countries. invading them without wanting to inform yourself about. beliefs and practices of most of their inhabitants. of. new afghanistan which isn't really under anyone ever. promising candidates for rapid democratization it isn't possible to democratize anywhere by bombing it in invading it. now the whistle blowing web site that posted more than eighty thousand pentagon
1:12 pm

1:13 pm
was actually happening during that war a picture of a bloody conflict that's not going to come to an end anytime soon what we do know however is that those original documents eighty thousand of them they were came exclusively from the u.s. military there was no secret information you know top secret classified documentation and importantly no information from the cia but this information according to wiki leaks does come from the cia so it's not clear whether this is the fifteen thousand documents that his team started when they may be originally now ready to put them out or whether this coming. from an entirely new source which is more related to the cia this is a big day for julian i saw as the representative of wiki leaks he's not only releasing this information but it's also going to be revealed today whether he will face charges of molestation and this is really an extraordinary story came to light over the weekend in a rest warranted been issued in sweden to swedish women women came forward one of
1:14 pm
them said that he had rate and another one said that he had molested her now molestation is a lesser charge than rape the prosecutor is going to decide on wednesday whether or not he will stand charges for molestation the rape charge has already been thrown out the prosecutor in sweden said that there was no evidence. yes that there was a rape we have to draw a parallel between these two events happening on the same day releasing of new information. and deciding whether whether he will stand charges of molestation it's possible that this was done to deflect attention from this sexual charge that he may have to face don't forget that there are plenty more stories on our website of course on t.v. dot com we also feature different blogs speed space or travel but here are just some of today's top picks just called him vlad the impaler russia's premier take to the on the crossbow on the hunt for gray whales but just to collect skin samples to help with the preservation of the species in the countries. well speed.
