a russian merchant of death remains in solitary confinement in bangkok whilst u.s. authorities fight for his extradition. the man suspected of organizing the two deadly blasts in most schools metro was linked to international terrorist organizations are no more in just a few minutes. on the online whistleblower wiki leaks again but its latest revelations from the cia failed to set the world on fire. in. the very room welcome to you this is all the live from moscow with me alice had that title forty say a russian business been wanted in the u.s. for global almost smuggling will not be extradited immediately fell victim remains

in solitary confinement in a bank called prison but in the us out of the house. 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 business that there and also quoted some unnamed american authorities who are allegedly in possession of evidence that proves victor cliff 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 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 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. i'm brian johnson thomas a former arms trafficking expert for the u.n. security council believes that peace extradition is a matter of well and not said i'm not quite clear why the americans have fought this case. maybe just about the money they spent on this thing 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 to is that the reason why they've dropped the money laundering charges may be that they can concentrate purely on the sting operation is alleged to have agreed to supply weapons to the front 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 the court to marry charles went back to was of some service to the pentagon or whoever else i. think will go to america he will go on trial in manhattan and he will be found guilty on the narrow charges of agreeing to supply the park i don't think that's necessarily for the last was going to happen. so plenty more for you on asking clearing the man hating to move out in the world than into the kremlin. with his recent checkered history russia has left a lot of people with claims to property some ludicrous others serious we'll meet self-proclaimed boils down to take the russian president from the kremlin claiming it's his family you know. the head of russia's federal security service says nearly discovered documents linked the man believed to be behind the mosque

a metro plans with international terrorist organizations where the evidence was found out the mother making that was killed in a special operation that was done last week. basically these secret documents don't only contain information on what i mean by most contacts in the opposition but also the international context with the international terrorist organizations the are forty six claim also that we now know that the last phone told me on monday i'm also cell phone was international as well though being not disclose the name of the country it was made with all of this is according to be head of the russian federal security service and basically this announcement by means of these documents link him going. to international terrorist organizations the documents were discovered last week as a result of a special operation would probably be stopped by authorities in which the other

himself. by gallup himself is a major figure suspected of organizing the deadly blast marshman to one two female suicide bombers attacked two metro stations i believe keep up the morning rush hour killing forty people and injuring hundreds of hours all the responsibilities also suspect there may be another blast in the distance just a week after a man targeting the upper lease station and also. organizing around thirty attacks companies which several policemen were killed and basically these documents also hold information on the precise plans and targets of terrorist attacks which got the ball in maadi so this is definitely going to help the investigation the federal security service says that it now has a name of all the people connected to be the blast in moscow metro at the end of march and to be restitution is that going to continue. while the whistle blowing

web site wiki leaks is causing a stir again after posing an internal cia report the document calcified the secret fix this on the perception that the united states is exporter of terrorism in full for more on the newly published revelations his article in the stuff among new york studios. there's nothing new in this memo it's a very short memo from the central intelligence agency that in essence is and now that has been done many times over by journalists and analysts here in the united states already it talks about the impression basically the reputation the u.s. may have abroad with foreigners as terrorism and it talks about cases that are that 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 and it talks about as well the case of david healy who is a u.s.

citizen who was believed to be involved in surveillance. 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 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 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 that 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 wasn't just for publicity there was speculation on that and also criticism over julian assange the man behind. this website 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 hurt so there have been increasing questions i really what is motivating a sign is it listed he is it who bridges is it his own intentions himself. well to talk more about this story now let's speak to invest it in this. way matson from washington many thanks for joining us tonight the wiki leaks are aiming for nothing that they get the reaction they expected. no i'm afraid

this document from a cia red cell which is basically test to look outside the box is one big yawn on this one because it talks about. the situation the united states the demographics how the u.s. only in a very few cases has produced. terrorists it goes into even it's classified secret no foreign which means not releasable to foreign nations but foreign nationals but it off it also talks about in the eighteen hundreds some irish americans blowing up the tower of london the british parliament. and scotland yard and and that's supposed to be classified i think one thing this shows is that the cia and the government in general is over classifying a lot of its documents there's really no way that those documents should be secret

because it's a bunch of talking points that could have easily come from any washington d.c. think tank and. no rise of freedom of speech again clash with the u.s. government interests in this instance anything. well i mean though this whole issue if we were going to see something really earthshaking leaked from the cia how about some something that has to do with the cia involvement with what's known as state sponsored terrorism for example the united states during the vietnam war targeted people in vietnam for assassination it was operation phoenix and we also had the shock and all in iraq where civilians were indiscriminately killed we've seen the same thing in afghanistan and where do we see these revelations this this classified document released by wiki leaks is only talking about some americans who

went overseas to join terrorist groups talks about the british agents assassinating supposed nazi agents in the united states before the second with the u.s. got into the second world war so as i say there's there's nothing here that should . anyone in the cia and i think this really is just another case where wiki leaks select that this document looking for a big publicity run but i don't think they have this got the same reaction i have received in the past well if you say there is nothing said staff will potentially damaging in these names these documents why it is it was interesting that. well i think i think what we're seeing between wiki leaks and the department of defense is some sort of japanese kabuki theater dance where we cue leaks does something the pentagon reacts and you know how long is this going to go on and it

makes one wonder why does the pentagon remain react to wakey leaks i think the best thing for the pentagon to do is just ignore wiki leaks of they're upset. that you know they're looking obviously for publish city and every time they hammer these careful it's what i call controlled hemorrhage of documents they're looking for massive public because i noticed that along with this release of this document came some sort of a appeal for funds why isn't he going to carry only do you think they're ready thing that can stop it now well as long as they find that they get contributions from people who think that they're leaking or shattering documents are going to alter u.s. policy somehow i think they're going to continue to do so. ok. when i've said that many times is the king to us live from our washington studio. ok we're doing together there are plenty more stories on our website dot com where you'll

see a few different blogs his face all travel and here are just some of today's top picks . well just call him a blackout the impaler rush is a premier takes to the roof of a crossbow on the hunt for gray whales but just to collect skins sol bulls to help with the preservation of the species in the country's bar exist. last speed. a comma for the attention of call of us at the last go international way to show gets into gear money for troops from iraq on the well the showcasing their latest shiny offerings and you can see them too as. forty people have been killed in

a string of bombings that have rocked iraq in baghdad alone over twenty bones exploded in at least twelve separate incidents there tongues comes today off to the u.s. and elsewhere how did withdraw. troops however fifty channels and remain to advise iraqi forces it's the lowest number of soldiers since the start of the war in two thousand and three but today's bombings are raising questions of iraqi government's ability to do within only going insurgency so bob mcdonnell from the arab noise with the asians of the bombings may actually be the iraqi government's way of getting u.s. troops to stay. variety of 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 leave they must be engaged in military and use of force not just

training as it was claimed by the americans although people are talking about forming a government whether it's allowed you whether it's maliki and what have you that is really not the situation in 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 there are legions is not a national one but their allegiance either to their faction or to their group or to their tribe. circles of international news in brief you this hour the bodies of eight victims of the manila bustling have arrived back in hong kong earlier survivors relatives and friends together with the coffins boarded the plane after many the airliner took all the philippines a day of mourning time to post on monday when an ex policeman held a bus load of tourists don't point in the hope of getting his job back. the

the so-called grand prince of all russia says it's his god given right to rule over the pace but critics think he's bluffing and discrediting genuine role saying. the russian president will move to the kremlin. if he gets his wake. need the grand prince of all russia but it could but if. you are 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 hasn't ruled 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 there when 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 policy entry candidate before quite unexpectedly stumbling upon his role roots which is the podium with his is not a case for genealogist but for psychiatrists he seems to more discredit the aristocracy than anything despite being labeled alternatively mentally ill or a megalomaniac the grand prince remains upbeat about the 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 further hearings are scheduled for october. i am now the kremlin as unlikely to change own as 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. moscow's been rocking to the sound of you see the i received a group of forms in russia for the first time limit on least eighty thousand pounds to the venue even the rain that came with the point in the capital could dampen the spirits of the bumping to the bridge with some of the take in. january topped the thousand dollars a huge spider robot stage the largest in rock'n'roll history was set up for the concerts where hundreds of trucks were brought in just to install it in the band has been in town since sunday and met through the rivet of the head of the show and it turned out the two shared a common love of led zeppelin or that brings you up to date back in about ten minutes on with a recap all volatile stories but first it's our interview and since the birth of the idea of ancient greece democracy has undergone many changes in definition but

is still essential for politics and peaceful that's according to historian and theories don don he spoke to laura i met in london. you're. democracy originally meant that it's the people who hold the power and exercise you say that sometimes that's a thumping could you elaborate on that well it's not what we have today because very obviously i don'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 are of this when they very definitely most of this is and in athens the systems went a very large proportion of the population but they did take all the better public decisions and went to very many people who were chosen to exercise special bizzare and move to the military leaders elected and that was seen as a rather undemocratic practice but is necessary because in a war you want to be quite sure that you were led by the people who would lead you to victory do you think democracy can be used to cover up our. political system when i think it always is i mean that is in a way the main point i want to make i mean this is the is the name of a form of government not very clearly defined form of government and

a political pretension or party political claim which is that a form of government. he's 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 puffed rate if they intervene in some countries barely at all and in any countries only every few yes. very briefly and in a way which gives the mix stream a little control over the outcome near. us had a profound effect on democracy could you describe. roughly speaking since the end of the second world war the united states has definitely been a theory opinion that the rest of the world should be governed in much the same way as it was government of his has been much the most powerful state in the world over

that period of time and it's insisted with a very environments and very in cursive innes on the merits of its way of its approach to governing 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 call themselves democracy or neither of which on the i'm offering have very strong grounds for calling themselves democracy because that isn't what democracy meant. the u.s. version of democracy it's viewed with suspicion and in the islamic world in the same post last america is sponsoring insurgency hot oh twenty first century

democracy the united states has no particular insight into most of the rest of the world and it's. a long time a very considerable set up with some power over any other potential competitor newt has to. bury considerable overconfidence about its capacity to judge what's good and bad for other countries and all the state under 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 that is how democracy seen isn't it nowadays in the sort of evangelical way for george w. bush self said that democracy was the best weapon in fighting terrorism what did you think when he said yes but 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 on the united states of the united states in various parts of the world and that policy has not proved at all wise and it was inherently objectionable in some respects. well no decent motives behind the tool but there were a lot of not very decent letters behind it and it was a very stupid policy what has the will of the regimes in basic iraq and afghanistan to force us about 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 can step short of democratization what those two experiences taken together of tortoise is that it's absolutely hopeless to try to move fast in a direction of that kind by bombing countries to pieces and invading them. without bothering to inform yourself about what was.

the views and beliefs and practices of most of their inhabitants. under saddam hussein the very holy land nor the. 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 you can see clearly 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 foxed. i mean it is a very important fact that the. the most peace versus 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 vision

of what was going on and what it meant than with that of their opponents and i think the. i mean israel anyway. within the very population i mean 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. it started off in a very bad place and. it's not a to me it can get back from that position but it is clear to me that democracy is irrelevant. thank you very much. closer is that so much of a spiritual event cannot secure for
