has been carried to the south of the country where five people have already died from the disease and dozens more have been affected parties reports i'm afraid we have some technical difficulties there of course we'll bring that report to you as soon as we can. live from the russian capital here with r.t.r. still to come for you this hour live to eat is the american diet really that appetizing for the rest of the world takes a look at the health of a nation. and i believe we can go back to our top story now with. a steady stream of patients has been arriving at this hospital near volgograd all

with the same diagnosis west nile fever five are dead more than one hundred are seriously ill and five the real number of those affected might be several times higher a lot of people are being treated at home without knowing what's wrong with them and don't ask for help until it was too late west nile fever affects different people in different ways for those who are young it might pass without symptoms others might suffer a mild form of flu or something like that but for those most seriously affected for those who are vulnerable for all the people it can be critical it starts off with headaches vomiting diarrhea and then progresses to damage the central nervous system eventually leading to death i was allowed to see some of the patients myself many are still too ill to speak others can but are still suffering the severe 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 left inside

outside a 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 period of particularly hot weather and this allows the mosquitoes to spread the disease the mosquitoes that are doing in spite of that they buy documents and then humans get infected now here doctors are issuing warnings to everybody to keep their clothes with long sleeves to spray themselves mosquito spray and so on but they're saying that people are refusing to follow these instructions and that they the threat quite seriously enough but they're saying that the threat will remain until october when the weather is expected to become cooler. the whistleblower wiki leaks is back in the headlines after publishing an internal cia report on the internet the documents classified as secret focuses on the perception of the united states as an exporter of terrorism meanwhile the website founder will be questioned by the swedish authorities for

allegations of molestation and it has more. there's been much less of a media florrie surrounding this than there was the beginning of the month when the war diaries were released and i think there are people school reasons for that one because. it was seventy five thousand. that came from inside the u.s. military and such a huge volume of information always creates an impression whereas you compare it with this this is just three pages although having said that it is a secret document from inside the cia. that came exclusively from the u.s. military. saying is that the afghan war concrete evidence each of those documents was quote the evidence of events to take the deaths of civilian casualties. those casualties whereas this is an internal cia document describes a hypothetical situation which looks at what would happen if the international

community perceived the u.s. as an export of terrorism it's written by departments in the cia called the red cell which is specifically charged with coming up with hypothetical scenarios and looking at what might happen so obviously the impact. on how we believe the world works is much less than the impacts of the afghan war this report takes a couple of examples of u.s. citizens taking terror a broad talks about young muslim americans who travel from north to pakistan. allegedly were hoping to join the pakistani taliban while they were that. you may remember from november two thousand and eight when a man called david headley who was a pakistani american. he took part in this is a valence speeding up by bombings which killed more than one hundred sixty people but we do have to ask ourselves why has this report being released now particularly as it's so short and describes this hypothetical situation. has been in sweden and

last weekend it became. two swedish women had come forward one of the accusing him of rape and the other was accusing him of molestation rape charges being dropped but we recently heard that the sweetest prosecutor will want to question. about the molestation charge which is a lesser charge it's been suggested that this is a smear campaign following the war diaries the lawyers for these two swedish women say that's absolute nonsense as do the two swedish women themselves but we do have to ask ourselves whether this report is being released now in order to divert attention from. he is really the sort of self-appointed spokesman for wiki leaks. and whether he sees himself or whether he thinks he can be considered as a publicist you seek he said. he felt that when they were making these releases in terms of the media and bringing it out to the general public at large had to have

some sort of spokesperson some sort of and he appointed himself as that but still we do have to ask ourselves is this a case of the tail wagging the dog rather than the other way around. this time we can makes won't get the same overwhelming reaction as they did a month ago when we're sort of published secret afghan war reports that's according to investigative journalist wayne madsen who believes the food truth about the cia's activities 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 there's nothing here that should. anyone in the cia and i

think this really is just another case where 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 they have received in the past or the sponsor a promise from barack obama that they go into one of the bay prison with clunes at the beginning of the year now the two hundred detainees remain claims of torture and mistreatment and interrogation techniques on the phone the tourist detention facility brings you a special report that takes a look inside the real guantanamo bay that's in twenty minutes time. disarming saddam hussein. to give the iraqi citizens. this event brings further assurance that the torture chambers and the secret police are gone forever.

again over embassy in kabul. to launch occupied afghanistan. now occupy sales at guantanamo bay. it is appropriate to this accordance. with feet to the. face. if you can. so that it shocks especially if you get to sleep but you don't actually break in bones could deter a geisha techniques that we. approve but the senior leadership of. the. police. young muscovites putting themselves and others in danger by taking part in

a dangerous new post time train surfing helps the adrenaline hungry teens escape reality the consequences of the so-called extreme sports could be deadly. to green spent to some of those willing to risk everything for 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 involved this 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 a 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 falling from the train and being crushed but that hasn't deterred these guys they took up the hobby at an

early age claiming it gave them an unbridled escape from reality. but 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 daring enough maybe even taking to riding the metro just to get their daily kicks to these young men is 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 but 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 but. regardless of the dangers this crater swept across moscow with the web. swirly uploaded videos really people like andrea surrogate are likely to keep turning to the tracks for the next buzz regardless of the ultimate price they might pay jake agrees. now with the growth of globalization features of the american way of life of spread to other countries that's not just movies and pop culture it's also food along with hamburgers and coca-cola america's exporting on its major health problems obesity may find some of the images in this report disturbing. among all developed countries americans are the fattest in the world that's according to the world health organization where over sixty percent of the general population in the u.s.

is obese was even more disturbing the u.s. is the only country in the developed world to label obesity as a prime national security health risks. it's all part of a growing epidemic in america supersizing questions like why are americans so fat and what brought the fast food nation to rely heavily on foods most developed countries banned decades ago there's a lot of innovation that's going on in the united states at all levels whether it be organic or genetically engineered activity we begin with monsanto the former manufacturer of killer herbicide agent orange that's the chemical spray to the jungles of vietnam during the war with the united states agent orange eventually produced symptoms like these decades later monsanto is now responsible for more than half of the country's food and produce supply i believe that food is medicine and that genetically modifying. the food that we eat is going to have

a great health impact on it the united states also holds the record for the largest production of genetically modified products in the world according to g.m.o. compass ninety five percent of american corn and eighty five percent of the soybean industry is genetically modified the ingredients in all processed foods contain g.m. ingredients the grocers manufacturers of america estimates seventy to seventy five percent of the food we eat every day is genetically engineered this is one of the most dangerous massive experiments we've ever conducted all of our planet and the men one nine hundred ninety s. the f.d.a. and the u.s.d.a. allow genetically modified food products and ingredients to flourish through the american food supply. why in farming industry. when g.m. was reduced to nine hundred ninety six seven percent of americans had three or more chronic illnesses within our years that went to thirteen percent g.'s double the

last time. you know this is doubled between one hundred ninety four and two thousand and one autism is a. diabetes is no one is checking to see if the most radical change in the human food supply the introduction of genetically modified foods is contributing to these dangerous just dicks however statistics are lower income areas vary according to a report conducted by trust for america's help minority communities in the country are more vulnerable and factor to sticks recorded and african-american as banneker native american communities are nearly double the rate of white americans dr carolyn alexander suggests the alarming numbers plaguing minority communities is directly linked to g.m.o. foods i believe that these are certainly at the root cause of a lot of our children's health issues in particular in low income communities because they don't have the access to real food they were feeding the products of

an infant science to the entire population so the food is slowly killing us making us unhealthy and fat why is it on our stupor market shelves and even more important why aren't here no products labeled. as r t washington d c. well despite cost discrimination being illegal in india when they face house went and hostility on a daily basis because of this social status those choosing to tie the knot with a member of a different cost and find themselves rejected by both community and family as artie's charan singh reports more and more young people are trying to break with tradition. and have upset their families but only in two different castes it would. expected to marry one of their own but they have broken what is considered taboo. an intercom marriage is considered a sin here our society wants to continue its traditions that people have been

following for centuries her family has a much higher cost than mine this hurt their ego that the bridegroom is lower in status. the couple have enlisted the help of outsiders the ngo the unite humanity movement often deals within the caste marriages there have been more than one thousand two hundred such unions in the last decade in the be hard state. we want to discussed but a society based mindset and caste based discrimination a society can only be brought to vote might enter cost marriages and into religious marriage just the perk and she looked ten years ago to tie the knot chickens father filed a case of kidnapping against her husband and still refuses to talk to the couple. my family allowed me to visit them only after seven years with my husband and even now if i do visit my father doesn't speak to me she still angry with me. the police

a creation of one's mindset there is no real hierarchy between people and situation ration if you consider scarce and even if we do the next generation will definitely not even think of that discrimination on the basis of past is illegal in india but in large parts of the country drew means the overriding factor when choosing a life partner the sooner this changes the sooner we'll divisions over the past lose their relevance here got unseeing r.d. india. the final stage of anti terrorism drills got underway in southern russia security forces demonstrating how to handle potential hostage situation security representatives from the shanghai cooperation organization came together to take part in the elaborate exercises. demonstration and coordinate the rescue teams then terrorist attack a similar drill was also stage on the volga river the security forces carried out reenactments terrorist incidents and drive comes as russia continues its struggle
