in bangkok while u.s. authorities fight for his extradition. and wiki leaks is at it again the whistle blowing web site has released a u.s. cia document plenty of publicity ahead of this release but is it much ado about nothing i'll have more in a live report. the man suspected of organizing the true deadly blast in most schools metro was linked to international terrorist organizations find out more in just a few minutes. this is from moscow with me on his habit telling me he is claiming a russian businessman wanted in the u.s.

may have been involved in the nine eleven terror attacks it's of course because american secret services have proof victim have been arming the terrorists behind the attacks. today a thai television channel showed a small. story that was actually more similar to a short propaganda style documentary that of basically documented the life and alleged dealings of the russian businessmen there 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 did make it public

because surely that would have strengthened their case against it their blood and maybe have even made the criminal court which earlier refused boots extradition to swing the case their way and actually believe the evidence that they have so the fact that 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 who what kind of sources. is the thai television channel actually relying on and why this information is surfacing just now of course if the 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 that decision on august twentieth allegedly and 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 of mr boat 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 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 nobody knows so far. and brian johnson told us the form arms trafficking hanks for the u.n. security council please be extradition is a matter of when not. 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 the states and the consequences that will follow i think ritu point you want is that the reason why they've dropped the money laundering charges may be that they can concentrate purely on the sting operation where victory is alleged to have agreed to supply weapons to the phone if

that happens then the court in america may also be directed not to look at anything other than the sting operation so they will not be able to bring into court and to open court 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 trial in manhattan and he will be found guilty on the narrow charges of of agreeing to supply the park i don't think that's necessarily fur but that's what's going to happen. there's still plenty more for you on our team including the man hoping to move up in the world and into the kremlin. with its recent checkered history russia has left a lot of people with claims to property some ludicrous problems serious. we'll meet a self proclaimed royal seeking to have the russian president of the kremlin claiming it's his family home. the whistleblower website wiki leaks is

causing a stir again as it's posted what it says is an internal cia report the document labeled secret focuses on the perception that the united states is an exporter of terrorism for more on the newly published. or less to your door and so there was a lot of fossils in there ahead of this new league but is it living up to the holy . what's interesting alice is that it really is and there's nothing new in this memo it's a very short memo from the central intelligence agency that in essence is and now is this that has been done many times over by journalists and analysts here in the united states already it talks about the impression basically of the reputation the u.s. may have abroad with foreigners as acts porting terrorism and it talks about cases that are have been well documented all over the media of five pakistani american

young men who traveled from northern virginia overseas to allegedly join the pakistani taliban it talks about as well the case of david healy who is a u.s. citizen who was believed to be involved in surveillance for the moment by terror attacks in india so these are well documented cases and their impression that they've made on the international community has been analyzed many times over also in this cia document it talks about if the u.s. policy on rendition is seen as too one sided that could hinder the u.s. is getting cooperation from foreign governments which i don't think is news to anybody. warned. time about revealing sensitive information but now is the movie dead so what is its most. there are a lot of people questioning more and more what the motives are of wiki leaks

especially with the wiki leaks the man behind the website julian saunders who has seen increased criticism for being kind of a publicity monger himself and acting with immense who briss and really seeking promotion with these releases you'll recall after the seventy five thousand classified documents on the afghan war were released soon after that on the website they published a insurance document that was encrypted but many people that we spoke to sources said that the u.s. government could easily decrypt this document so so what really was the point of putting that up was it just for publicity there was immense speculation on that and also criticism over julianna songe the man behind this web site for acting really irresponsibly even people that supported his release of the afghan war documents said he may have been not careful enough and redacting names that possibly could have gotten people heard so there have been increasing questions of really what is

motivating a sonnet is it is it who broke this is it his own intentions himself. knows that we found the dead all the secret from you don't see how the buildings to the cia. that's an interesting question because i actually just spoke with an r.t. contributor wayne madsen who has worked for the national security agency here in the united states and is an investigative reporter himself and he says that he is very suspicious that there are ties between julian assange and the cia namely because we have heard these reports of rape charges against julian assange is that he faces in sweden well according to his son she was tipped off by australian intelligence officials about those charges now how i saw it just getting help from these australian intelligence officials when the intelligence community is supposed to be against him and supposed to be looking out for him is

a real question especially because australian intelligence is a friend of u.s. intelligence of the cia so if if australian intelligence officials are helping a son then that leads to questions as to what kind of ties he could have to the cia as well really raising eyebrows and not passing the smell test if you will intrigue . many things that was also used correspond to reporting for us from new york. the head of russia's federal security services newly discovered don't think the man believed to be behind the mosque troop levels with international terrorist organizations the evidence was fumbling with the couple was killed in a special operation in a week you go to school wolf house that he tells. basically these secret documents don't only contain information on what i mean by got most contacts in the proper

search but also international context with international terrorist organisations the our forty's claim also that the now i know that the last phone told me that only by gum also cell phone was international as well though they are 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 going by gallup to international terrorist organizations to the documents were discovered last week as a result of a special operation would probably be started not to by authorities in which but rather from so i will still buy the album from sufism major figures suspected of organizing the deadly blast in moscow metro march twenty nine one two female suicide bombers attacked two metro stations at the peak of the morning rush hour killing forty people and injuring one hundred hours others might come up is also

suspected of maybe another blast in the discussion this week after not targeting of police station and also. organizing around thirty attacks on the bodies in which several policemen were killed and basically these documents also told information on the precise plans and torn to bits of terrorist attacks which got the ball in body so this is definitely going to help the investigation the federal security service says that it now has the names of all the people connected to be the blast in moscow metro at the end of march and to view masturbation is that going to continue. and don't forget that there are plenty more stories on our website called we will see a few different blogs bid space or travel here are some of today's topics. and you can just call him the impaler russia's prime it takes to the water with

a crossbow on the hunt for gray whales but it's just to collect skin samples to help with the preservation of the species in the countries far it's. well steve ingle our mabo i'm going to the attention of calm lovers of the moscow international motor show gets into gear money fat chance from around the world the showcasing his shiny offerings when you can see them too as well as he dot com. now more than forty people have been killed in a string of bombings that have rocked iraq in baghdad alone over twenty poems exploded in at least twelve separate incidents will be at times come just a day after the u.s. announced it is withdrawn the. troops however fifty thousand remain to advise iraqi

forces although it's the lowest number of soldiers since the start of the war in two thousand and three bob today's bombings are raising questions of the iraqi government's ability to deal with an ongoing insurgency the bottom looked tough from the around. the bombings may actually be the iraqi government's way of getting us troops to stay. but there are a variety of reasons why it should have been 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 americans from going out or at least the troops they leave they must be engaged in military use of force not just training as it was claimed by the americans although people are talking about forming a government whether it's a law you were. it's maliki and what have you that is really not the situation iraq has been dismantled there is no government there is no authority in iraq the prime

minister cannot leave the green zone there is no military or police in iraq because they are all militias who have been recruited to wear the same uniform but that allegiance is not a national one but their allegiance either to their faction or to their group or to their tribe. trying to establish democracy by military force is a toss also says political theorist john donne who believes the process of change must speak peaceful where you can watch the full interview later this 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 if you have an ambitious been so kind of democratization what those two experiences taken together of torture is that it's absolutely hopeless to try to move fast

in direction of that kind of bombing countries. invading them without wanting to inform yourself. using beliefs and practices of most of their inhabitants. of. the new afghanistan which isn't really under any one ever where a top promising candidates for rapid democratization it isn't possible to democratize anywhere by bombing it in invading it. now has been rocking to the sound of you see the i received a group performed in russia for the time i don't waste thousand fans from the venue will even the rain that came as a surprise in the capital failed to dampen the fears found boxing today and fall of the tickets which have been failed generates. darling

a huge spider were able to stage the lot just a remarkable history with stands up for the concept hundreds of trucks reporting just to install it well the pound is been in town for some day and meant to be the dead of ahead of the show and it turned out that sea we shared a common love of. it is going to take off from international news in brief. that the boss arrived back in hong kong early as the by the relative together that was played on. the airline and to call it. a day of mourning the attack took place on monday when a policeman held a bus load of twenty gunpoint in the hope of getting his job back. mexican troops have discovered the remains of seventy two bodies following a shootout as a raunch to the city of san fernando authorities believe that they were the victims

of a drug gang over twenty eight thousand have been killed in drug related violence of the country in the past four years and that's despite a crackdown by president felipe calderon since he came to power in the two thousand and six. in china the black boxes of the plane that crash landed killing forty two people have been found fifty four others were injured while the plane was trying to land at night when it overshot the runway and bust into flames a group of chinese officials war clue a deputy minister who's in a critical condition. a self-proclaimed royal is bringing a legal case against the russian government claiming that the kremlin is rightfully his while the so-called grand prince of all russia says it's his god given rights to rule over the place but critics think he's bluffing and discrediting genuine royalty. one day soon the russian president will move out of the kremlin and this

man will move in if he gets his way. made the grand prince of all russia but it could but if. you're a store procedure should play a decisive role in the fate of the country property is a sacred right and we are the owners of the kremlin if the government just lodges that's why we filed a lawsuit for it to be returned to us. who would have claims to be a long lost descendant of an extinct in a city that has for four hundred years he says his ancestors and other nobles paid for the construction of the criminal with their own money so the family should return that. he has no legal grounds at all for his claims he's just trying to make a name for himself the law clearly says that the property belongs to the state his critics say the grand prince was a communist party functionary

a bank executive and a failed column and she can that before quite unexpectedly stumbling upon his role roots which is this what you put in his is not a case for genealogist but for psychiatrists he seems to more discredit the aristocracy than anything despite being labelled alternatively mentally ill or a megalomaniac the grand prince remains upbeat about i'm not a clown with my heritage i've been given the power that ordinary people have not to look off to places and these people are hearings for october. i am now the problem is unlikely to change owners any thought and so on but what the story does prove is that with a three thousand checkered history russia has left a lot of people with claims to property some ludicrous others serious in. moscow. well that brings your state back in about ten minutes time with a recap of stories but first it's all in t.v.

now since the birth of the idea an ancient greece democracy has undergone many changes in definition but is still essential for politics and peaceful that's according to historian there is don't don you spoke to the emmett in london. democracy originally meant that it's the people who hold the power and exercise you say that in terms of state democracy that's

a thumping falsehood could you elaborate on that well it's not what we have today because very obviously i didn't rule the united kingdom and you don't rule the united kingdom and. so you could argue about how many people do it but certainly not very many people who it's been a very definitely most of this isn't in athens the systems weren't a very large proportion of the population but they did take all the public positions and went to very many people who were trying to exercise special. move to the military leaders elected and that was seen as a rather undemocratic practice but there is the spirit necessary because in a war you want to be quite sure that you were led by the people who lead you for victory do you think democracy can be used to cover up. elements in the political system well i think it always is i mean that is the main point i want to make i

mean this is the walker see is the name of a form of government not very clearly defined form of government and a political pretension or party political. form of government is actually authorized by the people of the very very great majority of states in the world. governments which claim to be authorized by the people at large but if you ask how the people actually do their authorizing the answer is they have a very very small bit paul revere they intervene in some countries barely at all and in any countries only every few years. very briefly and in a way which gives the mix stream little control over the outcome. of the us have a profound effect on democracy could you describe that roughly speaking since the end of the second world war the united states has definitely been the opinion that

the rest of the world should be governed in much the same way as it was government has been much the most powerful state in the world over that period of time and it's insisted with a very very very and coercive inus on the merits of its way of its approach to governing space to other peoples and obviously. for a long period of time between shortly after the end of the second world war and the collapse of the soviet union it was essentially in a global power struggle with a completely different way of organizing and both of which i mean call themselves democracy and base of which had some grounds for calling themselves democracy and neither of which on the time offering have you know very strong grounds for calling themselves democracy because that isn't what democracy meant. the us version of democracy it's. the islamic world in the same health class america is

sponsoring insurgency. twenty first century democracy the united states has no particular insight into most of the rest of the world and is. it's. a long time a very considerable set with power over any other potential competitor and it has. a very considerable overconfidence about its capacity to judge what's good and bad for other countries and obviously on the. george w. bush presidency it interferes a lot in other parts of the world on the basis of that judgment in a very indiscreet way and yet to see how democracy see now days in the sort of evangelical way george w. bush said democracy was the best weapon in fighting terrorism what did you think when he said well i thought he was a fool. i thought he was a fool and the people behind him were knaves if you see what i mean i mean that

claim was made in defense of a very forward military and political policy in the united states of the united states in various parts of the world and that policy has not proved wise and it was inherently objectionable in some respects. no decent motives behind the tool but there were a lot of not very decent motives behind it and it was a very stupid policy will have the. regimes in basic iraq and afghanistan for self the process of democratization 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 if you have an ambitious kind of democratization what those two experiences taken together of tortoise is that it's absolutely hopeless to try to move fast in

the direction of that and by bombing countries pieces and invading them. without bothering to inform yourself about what was. the views. beliefs and practices of most of their inhabitants. under saddam hussein the very whole again. a new afghanistan which isn't really under any one ever. told promising candidates for rapid democratization and it isn't possible to democratize anywhere by bombing it in invading it and to get. really pessimistic about the ability of democracy to bring peace to the middle east well i do think that the middle east is not the sort of place where democracy is going to assist peace. i mean it is a very important fact that the. the mayster the peace of this

group amongst the palestinians won the elections in gaza or and they won the elections in gaza because more of the population of gaza agreed with their decision of what was going on and what it meant than with that of their opponents and i think that. i mean israel anyway. within the jewish population i mean it has been a democracy since it became a state but it hasn't become much more specific as a result of being a democracy and it's. started off in a very bad place and. it's not a too clear to me i can get back from that position but it is clear to me that democracy is a relevant question thank you very much. culture
