in a decade a car bomb exploded at the central market of. thursday morning killing seventeen and injuring more than one hundred sixty. reports on how people there are still coming to terms with what happened. cries louder than sirens but no fear just the time eleven twenty four on the watches of those who perished in the central market in logic of cause it was of sos day when a suicide bomber drove his silver car to its entrance gates he was said to be come during a routine check of the car but reluctant to open the trunk but a security guard in iceland big player insisted. he put the key in the trunk lock turned it maybe once or twice the key broken his hand i slung big had the man turned it around and moved away from the crowded entrance a minute later a powerful explosion shook the area icelandic heard the cries and rushed to the

scene. i saw a lot of cars blown to pieces and a lot of bodies i had no real fear i just felt sorry for the people who died or got injured especially a young mother with a child i saw them just before the explosion a young girl was coming in with a kid a little kid as soon as she got inside the blasts happened. a little known went to the market that day with his entire family it said he was quarreling with his brother bought riding their bike so his grandmother promised to buy him a new one but a moment later they were killed by the blast so. i went inside but they stayed at the entrance suddenly there was an explosion i lost one of my children and my mother my wife and another kid are in hospital there were many people there it was scary no we'll know and his grandmother yes i'm on lie side by side the government's closed the house of the survivor stricken by the loss. this is

a father and his one and a half year old son who died and this is his wife she was injured legs and hands and this is the one. candles commemorate the day in which he got because people here are mourning their loved ones and have been given blood to help the injured for tinier who has arrived in the form of a newborn son but before the birth she too had to leave through the tragedy. to the market and the brooch in the entrance a powerful explosion went off my ears were down right away honestly i didn't understand it was an act of terror or anything like that. so people covered by blonde and they run right away i was afraid of a second blast. too scared for the last hope yet to be born son that she and i didn't notice that she herself was injured and it was not the piece of metal in her

knee that was on her mind. there was afraid there's nothing was moving inside me then up to some time with his started moving when i was afraid it home the one taken care of and baby sleeping beside her to jenin now is occupied by the beginning of the little one as with logic of cause itself she still needs some time to get back to normal life this penetrating logic of cars is far deeper than this shell hole left by the deadly car blast as days parts people slowly start mending their lives for sun like the newborn baby it could be a bridge to a new life but for many this horrible attack will be engraved on their hearts for ever. our own like us sticking with that same story the bombing in north as part of a global terrorist war against a democracy that's according to political scientist dr weil. this attack suicide attack in the northern caucuses is not just a local attack by

a local terrorist we've seen this before it has a history at taxed by the hardest movement linked to al qaida worldwide inside russia in dagestan in chechnya in this part of the caucasus as we see around the world whatever you have suicide bombers you see also that threat against international democracy and freedom. that was political scientist dr walid. the ninth anniversary of the deadliest terror attack in history has been marked this weekend almost three thousand people were killed on september eleventh in new york but nine years on and the number of victims is still growing artie's marina porter nine spoke to some first responders who say their health was ruined at ground zero but the government failed to help. gary white was an american hero in two thousand and one did you actually get diagnosed as being directly sixty nine eleven in two thousand and ten the nine eleven first responder represents an exploding health

crisis u.s. officials have failed to address its toll the across the page course an illness or coma gall bladder cancer liver cancer the retired n.y.p.d. detective spent six months sifting through world trade center debris and clouds of toxins later resulting in asthma sleep apnea post neurological problems and two strokes the first one is massive. i was paralyzed i lost command of my speech. i had to learn to walk and talk again the police department denies his illnesses are linked to nine eleven still fits leaving the twenty three year veteran with mounting medical debt this one wants fourteen over fifty three and a daily dose of medications inflammation pills pills to stop the cramping in my legs like walk blood pressure medications the worst attack on u.s. soil took place here on september eleventh

a day when nearly three thousand people lost their lives in a matter of hours and in the ninth years that have followed nine hundred first responders have died victims of their own courage n.y.p.d. sergeant michael ryan was diagnosed with three types of cancers before losing his battle at just forty one years old i leave ryan is just one of many widows who lost her world with husband post nine eleven all these men and women that are fighting for their lives right now it's our progress it's it's time it's watching a loved one. disintegrate in front of your face and just the fight to stay alive and it's a fight that can break even the stronger. john definitely was diagnosed with cancer hospital bill. one million dollars we do so much overseas and i am not saying

not to do it we're a powerful nation we should lead by example but we're not leaving by example here. we're not leaving by example here when you turn your backs on the nine eleven emergency responders those who sacrificed for the country now left struggling alone merino port r.t. new york. well it seems anti islam sentiment has been running high in the us on that anniversary of september eleventh attacks a man set fire to pages of the koran in near ground zero two similar incidents are said to have happened in the state of tennessee it follows a thread by a florida pastor to burn islamic holy book on the nine eleven anniversary although that was later called off there were also protests against and rallies for plans to build a mosque and islamic community center close to the side of the terror attack muslim american activist ramadan says that since nine eleven islam has been misconstrued in the u.s. . really what this shows in the most disturbing part about this debate is it's

become an us against them that is the most troubling aspect because we are all americans we're signing collective guilt on the one billion muslims on the acts of nineteen militants that basically defiled islam and practiced a perverted version of islam for a political agenda and now to assign blame on all muslims is completely incorrect and inaccurate but i think the great majority here islam because they don't understand it. this week's terror attack in russia's north caucuses and of the nine eleven anniversary have heated up debate on whether it's possible to stop international terrorism at all and how and of course we're always interested in your opinion on the topics we cover you can have your say on our website our t. dot com there we're asking what's the best way to eradicate international terrorist networks so far the majority of voters think ensuring high living standards for all may be a solution twenty seven percent support

a reversal of globalization another fifteen percent of viewers are quite radical as they are simply. in favor of banning all religions and getting rid of fanatics thirteen percent of you are pessimistic and say there is no way to prevent the problem while a minority want more security forces are to dot com is the place to cast your vote . gathering of some of the finest minds from around the world has put the russian city of jaroslav all firmly on the map this week played host to the global policy for forum brain storming a session bringing together statesmen and strategists investors and innovators. has been following it for us. young which you are in fact if solver and democracy as it turns out is different things to different states the title of these here is for many years sloppy standard democracy and efficiency made it sound

a little rain even for the crime years toughest critics gave some of them the chance to hit the president. to get each he said listen i strongly disagree with those who say there's no democracy in russia and that there's authoritarian tendencies here it's not true that russia is a democracy beyond any doubt it's young it's immature it's still not perfect and experience but it's a democracy nonetheless there's a way to go but we're ready to work on it in some countries democracy is being imposed but it doesn't work that way thirty and we've seen many examples of that but when you talk of democracy in russia is a moot point if the country doesn't more denies itself the key message the president was sending in his speech another major topic was security russia's been promoting a new vision for european security architecture that it says is vital to avoiding military conflicts similar to that in the south caucasus in two thousand and eight . that what we need to create an institution that will bring together nato and non

nato members and other structures where u.s. counterpart president barack obama never avoids discussing this issue he does not say that is harmful or unnecessary but i would suggest that among our american partners a certain jealousy exists with regard to this idea however it is necessary to rise over this josee and try to look the truth in the eye without the creation of the system the world will not be able to survive we can help each other here one of the first posts of course of the idea of the new european security treaty was italian premier corny but before he could make his point he had to find his words i like to say that i was not very well informed about the topics to be discussed at this forum. the section of my administration which has prepared the speech has prepared the room that's why i'm passing the stacks to the moderator of this portion of the plenary meeting this presentation doesn't correspond to the discussions here many that evening criticize the us corny for taking more stage

time than the host but mitchum it that it didn't seem to mind these helen prime minister performance definitely spies stuff but it was a formal session to them over there for two days this stadium turned into a war of tree where some of the world's best minds attempted to find a formula balancing three elements democracy modernization and efficiency did they come up with a single formula of course they didn't but what they agreed upon is no matter what the proportion if a country wants to move forward it needs all three elements in the mix if the democrats are t. from. although a new european security framework will take years of discussion reforming the current structure is vital so says professor craig calhoun from new york university i don't think that there has been a resolution about the proposal for the new european security security treaty but i do think that there is now

a relationship of mutual respect between president medvedev and president obama and between the two countries and that includes the other european countries that would have to be partners to any sort of agreement so in my view the discussion has to continue possibly for years before there is a resolution the disaster would be if any country breaks off the discussion and refuses to keep this process moving forward because we do need to reach an agreement and a new framework. professor craig calhoun from new york university there speaking at the global policy forum. a faulty plane a but fearless pilots there was a miraculous escape this week for a packed russian passenger jet when it crashed landed in the middle of a forest in the country's northwest all eighty one people on board survived after a midair aleck trickle failure artie's tom burton has the story. the heroes of the tiger these are the men the managed to land

a crippled jetliner in the middle of the forest and not injure a soul the passengers thankful to be in line see to pull so will any any estimates and any doubt these accounts emergency crews arrived to find two weeks everything was on has to start this to the fleet week it was not for the professionalism of the crew and we would not be standing here over the tupolev one five four always flying at ten thousand meters on its way to moscow from russia's far east when there was a massive electrical failure the plane lost all automatic navigation and communication its fuel supply and wing flaps were crippled meaning i had to learn quickly and at higher than normal speeds even the lights in the cabin and cockpit when tapped by sight a lot of the pilots found abandoned their strip in the depths of the forest and managed to land on the third attempt. by plane was designed to land on a concrete airstrip and at first we chose a restaurant in decided to land there but during the maneuver by a miracle we cut

a glimpse of a concrete strip and all the shorter it would be much safer going to get them despite overshooting and plowing through two hundred metres of woodland before stopping all eighty one people on board were evacuated to safety right in the rich can as a former pilot and actually train the heroes in question he says he's very proud of his former projects. up in the clothes they couldn't even tell their altitude or where they were he only had enough fuel for ten minutes of flight in managing to land that plane he practically did the impossible that's where the plane itself investigators are poring over interviews with the crew and witnesses black box recordings and evidence at the site that question what caused such a massive electrical failure providing that w one fifty por is not quite the brand you have craft and the. sure that. twenty years ago.

there was a chance of the. airlines which owns the plane says it wasn't aware of any issues before takeoff but it would never fly together investigators are focusing on mechanical failure rather than pilot error or weather conditions but everyone is expecting the pilots to receive medals there achieved. in time the technical details of this plane's malfunction will join all of the others maybe ation history one thing about courage and resourcefulness of the two men who brought it safely to the. hospital. and you can find more on that amazing landing and other stories we've been covering the web site dot com let's take a look at. the true cost of luxury see how searching for one of the world's most precious foods. are pushing the species to the brink of extinction.

russian inventors have found a way to prevent drivers from falling asleep at the wheel find out what it is and how it works. a former u.s. soldier has found himself at the center of a scandal after posting a controversial video on you tube sergeant dunson was discharged after planting grenades in the cars of iraqis at checkpoints then filming the reactions of drivers all this was supposed to be a prank but it reports most iraqis fail to see the funny side. manning a checkpoint all day. which is perhaps why sergeant. they pass the time playing jokes on unsuspecting drivers in the. dumps and describes how they planted

a grenade in. a few seconds of confusion always explained and very relieved. on his way. but we had a you know under a cause there are our it was just one of those being where it you know it happened back on a guy on a guy like that on but for most iraqis this is not fun and life here is very far from being a joke. i think it's only for them to laugh for us it's not funny but very scary. we're used to par but you know he says the search is happening every day but if someone did this to me i would be so scared. as would most people in a country where a checkpoint often the difference between life and death it's not uncommon good to have you on tape at least a dozen times a day if you found that you need a website what you will see the city of britain they will be arrested on the stuff and knowledge of terrorism. and some american military personnel are not seeing the

funny side of sergeant dunces antics i would not tolerate that in my organization. i don't think that's conducive to gaining. you know into the partnership with with the federal police or certainly and trusting their confidence in us or the people for that matter and trusting the. or trusting in the federal police but i want to a local t.v. stations picked up on the idea. that it takes well known local celebrities to iraqi checkpoints and plays pranks on them in much the same way as dunson and his colleagues produce and. says it's a way to lighten the situation. in libya we're not making fun of the iraqi forces they're very brave and fight and we wanted to present them in and we can defend when we also wanted to present and this is something people can laugh about.

there's mixed reaction to the iraqi show but still iraqis making fun of iraqis is very different according to most people here to americans. and with people still being killed in iraq if we day it was a constant reminder that terrorism is no laughing matter. r.t. back to. still ahead for you this hour a potential claim to fame the untold story of our far east russian village might have been the birthplace of north korean leader kim jong il. this week serbia decided not to challenge kosovo's unilateral declaration of independence and the united nations under pressure from the european union belgrade finally agreed to withdraw its initial draft resolution which had called on the secession of kosovo to be denounced a consensus resolution was unanimously adopted by the un general assembly although

belgrade it does not recognize kosovo's independence as a legitimate integrated to her via direct talks with close of ours on all unresolved matters this concession followed a push from the e.u. making it clear that serbia's wish to join the union would be jeopardized if it failed to soften its stance on kosovo political writer diana johnstone calls the new un resolution unconditional surrender by serbia's to the. present text that i have seen and i have here is not really a compromise i would call it an unconditional surrender to the european union this was not a compromise because from what i've understood the european union did not in exchange for this they gave nothing as usual and they'll just be asking for more as they have been for many years serbia is now really very much in the position of france. it's not quite an occupied country but it's surrounded and it's sort of

occupied and any leader or policy party which would really openly take into consideration serbia's interests is condemned by the western media as nationalists look what they heard look what happened to go it's live question it's where the united city use it over to get rid of milosevic but when he showed that he was still interested in his country's welfare he's known brand as an extreme nationalist and sidelined. it's reckoned to be the most important meeting of north korea's workers party in tech aids but no one outside of the country knows whether it's actually taken place yet the world has been watching and waiting as analysts believe kim jong il would use the meeting to present his youngest son as his successor a veil of secrecy still in trials the gathering but our team has shed some light on another mystery of the reclusive state's ruling dynasty. the second leader of north

korea and the son of its or no president officially came young it was born in one nine hundred forty two in japanese occupied korea according to north korean history books his birth was followed by the appearance of two rainbows and a new story in the heavens but there's a different story not many north koreans may know about this as they all came also known as some the current leader of north korea both used to live here in our village. this is very scary several dozen miles away from the city of how about us in russia's far east back in a minute hundred forty s. it was the home of a joint chaney's korean guerrilla regiment fighting against japan before north korea was established as a state its future leader kim il sung also used to serve year as a captain of the red army and i thought he could be called was born and spent his whole life in the arts can. i remember this camp we want allowed to go there but chinese and korean soldiers were free to walk anywhere they wanted some of them

even got married had some left leaving three or four women pregnant female soon fled to the soviet union after his grueling team was crushed by japanese authorities in nine hundred forty five years later the second world war brought its results japan was defeated soon sent to pyongyang to suit soviet common dance working there so if you didn't leave vance care for around five years it's unlikely came young you was born somewhere else it's this is allegedly what's left of the hell swear both came from leaders of north korea used to live there also used to be a terrorist here and the rumor is this song here still enjoy drinking fiend during warm summer evenings on this terrace discussing the ideas of communism with his comrades while little kim young male was running about playing you know why fortunately the arguing for bottles has only fuel to the mystery around kim jung il . there's lots of proof that kamal son lived in the outskirts however we couldn't

find official confirmation that community was born there not even from the f.s.b. this information is still a secret back and we have this small cemetery is the last resting place of the korean and chinese soldiers who died while serving in the regiment taking the truth with them you go to the skin of the ask a village in russia's far east. that's a look at your news this hour i'll be back in just a moment with the headlights stay with us. thanks.
