aftereffects of what they have been through many don't remember how they fell ill they don't even remember where they live or how old they are they're simply full of terror that their mental faculties will never recover from this ordeal outside their relatives who aren't twenty four hour watch they're begging to be let inside outside of visiting hours west nile fever is as exotic as it sounds it's much more typical for countries around the mediterranean it was never discovered until eleven years ago then just as the summer it was a period of particularly hot weather and this allows the mosquitoes to spread the disease if the mosquitoes it was in spite of that they buy the humans and then the humans get infected now here doctors are issuing warnings to everybody to keep their clothes with long sleeves to spray them so the mosquitoes spray and so on but they're saying that people are refusing to follow these instructions and to date the threat quite seriously enough but they're saying that the threat will remain until october when the weather is expected to become cooler. no the whistle blowing

web site wiki leaks is back in the headlines after publishing that internal cia report on the internet the documents classified as secret says on the perception of the united states as an exporter of terrorism. or mr explains. 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 the reputation the u.s. may have abroad with foreigners as acts according 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 it talks about as well the case of david healy who is a u.s. citizen who was believed to be involved in surveillance. 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 the u.s. policy on rendition is seen as too one sided or 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. 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 the. why i think just for publicity there was and that speculation on that and also criticism over julianna sighs 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 hurt so there have been increasing questions is it publicity is it who brit is it his own intentions to sell well this time we can get the same overwhelming reaction as they did a month ago by the web site to publish the secret afghan war reports that's according to investigative journalist wayne madsen but he was the food truth about the cia's that has yet to emerge. 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 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 we're wiki leaks select that this document looking for a big publicity run but i don't think they have this got the same reaction they. received in the past. live from the russian capital you know with evil still to come for you this i would live to eat the american diet really that for the rest of the world takes a look at the health of the nation. a great way to get your kicks on irresponsible puts dangerous train things that they just extreme activity that's

gaining popularity among adrenaline hungry teenagers in moscow well it's green spoke to some of those willing to risk everything for a thrill. some would find these actions toopid even crazy but for those who take part in what's become internationally known as train surfing is about the adrenalin rush the great involves riding on top or at the side of fast moving trains clinging on with their hands or the aid of a belt the danger of boldness is for many a major attraction but authorities are worried that those taking part are fully aware of the risks running along these cables above me of three thousand volts of electricity if you touch one you most likely be killed and that's just one of the dangers riders also risks fooling from the train and being crushed but that hasn't deterred these guys they took up the hobby as an early age claiming it gave them an

unbridled escape from reality. to get in yes we mostly just ride the trains not pulling any crazy stunts this is just a hobby the guitar adrenaline up. and as if that wasn't there enough to even take you to riding the metro just to get their daily kicks to these young men it's also become a form of expression and they don't see why this is street sport is being seen differently to other why the practice pastimes of the people skydive or climb mountains we ride trains on the outside certainly there's a risk but we plan all our steps we know trains very well where different things you can hold on to are we have certain safety guidelines. they and other adrenaline junkies like them have set up a list of these to avoid injury and even the likes of andrei mit the activity has had tragic consequences for some but. have not been any tragic accidents in our group things like that do happen just recently

a teenage boy tried to climb into the driver's car from the roof and fell down he got severely injured. regardless of the dangers this crater swept across moscow. with the web swirling with uploaded videos this practice has even attracted the attention of more widely know extreme sports stars live voivode in has been base jumping for six years is no stranger to danger even this there they will feel strange surfing is a step too far but not because of the risk to themselves. well it's hooliganism because they risk hurting not only themselves but other people too in my sport base jumping if i jump from a building or a cliff and fall down i won't harm anyone. does however sympathize the extreme sports are costly and some may be forced to train surf is search of a cheap thrill and it's also a rush that's unlikely to cost them much in terms of jail time or fines with only a nominal fee in place for those caught meaning people like andrea surrogates are

attacks may actually be the iraqi government's way of securing u.s. troop presence. 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 the americans from 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 whether 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 there are all militias who have been recruited to wear the same uniform but there is. not the national one but there are legions faction or group or tribe.
