door remains open to diplomacy should iran choose to walk through. the dialogue awkward dinner job responded with drove the u.s. and european union delegations out of the assembly hall all together he claimed nine eleven was an inside job by america as a middle. of us thought that most people believe that some segments within the u.s. government has traded the attack to reverse the decline in the u.s. economy and his grip on the middle east in order to save the zionist regime augmentin a job may have lost some of his audience inside the halls but he continued the conversation in public where you're smiling do you believe or started that the government had a hand out a lot in what seemed like interviews with almost every network and you had a captive audience on the street they have all joined activists to protest against his visit almost daily i did. hear the pomp and circumstance aside ahmed

in a job said he may return to the negotiating table if the security council plays nice . iran has always be ready for a dialing based on respect and justice and the international community warned of where an escalation in the conflict could lead and this force is used against iran i believe this would be the shortest way to the radicals in the room prevailing and deciding that now that we were struck we must have you with us and talk of m d g's or millennium development goals of fighting hunger and poverty amidst a global recession countries were more measured in making pledges for too long we've measured our efforts by the dollars we spend on the food that we deliver. the conference concluded with deep concern that the un is falling far short of conquering problems such as world poverty and malnutrition it appeared no country

our mutual responsibility the voice of america took to the podium in the universal declaration of human rights. we recognize the inherent dignity and rights of every individual yet three miles south from barack obama's lecture on moral principles one woman languishes in this federal jail behind me stripped many say of all her dignity allegedly at the hands of u.s. officials after the pakistani born u.s. educated a neuroscientist mother of three and the doctor u.s. mainstream media lavey al qaida a so-called terrorist never charged with committing an act of terror. i mean i think his story is really just a symbol of a broader problem which has gone largely unnoticed which is that there are

you know hundreds and if not thousands of people who have been disappeared at the hands of. you know either the bush administration or we don't know perhaps it continues into the obama administration and have never there the captors have never been held to account family spokesperson. were forced says before seeking to publicize their arrest in two thousand and eight. was tortured and secretly detained in a niche or news program for she was kidnapped in pakistan with her three children in march of two thousand and three no one knows where they are for a period of five years until of course the united states government announces that she is in custody in afghanistan forster says he is among the countless pieces illegally swept up by a known forces fighting this so-called global war on terror we believe that the u.s. government had a role in her disappearance and imprisonment for the missing five years.

from the bush administration has been absolutely outrageous thank you very much. marina put my own party. israel's moratorium on settlement construction of the west bank is set to expire within hours from now it was ten months ago. does the move towards peace talks a palestinian official meanwhile palestinian government officials warn several times that any new construction in the west bank will mean the immediate halt of ongoing negotiations some jewish settlers plan to celebrate the event by playing the foundations to new buildings in the area the international community has repeatedly called on israel to extend the moratorium all the israelis. government did yellow ravi perform a nonprofit organization and i think stand a dialogue between both sides of the conflict thinks only of praise the construction can improve the chance of peace. the leaders in the region prime

minister binyamin netanyahu and president obama is in both to see the importance of carrying on with the peace talks without promoting violence in fact these peace talks need to continue so that we can continue living together without violence this settlement freeze i think will be an opportunity for these leaders to show that they can overcome the obstacles in their way well it's true the palestinians have warned that they can walk away and many in fact see that as a ploy in their negotiations prime minister netanyahu will actually expect that he needs to start to stand firm for what he believes in. a tactic and as a strategy for his own negotiations so we expect the prime minister to stay firm with his expectation that the palestinians will stay in and negotiate.

a wire fence with his hands he simply walked away the doctors a dissing him too intimidated to intervene it's raising serious questions as to how exactly a dangerous psychiatric patient managed to escape and make it out of russia without being caught but the reason it's funny they tell us that he's totally insane and all he does a scream and you know in reply to any question however he managed to cross two borders and he brought his weapon along i know one member of the slav again who originally came from the stone he asked for political asylum and was granted a residence visa i'm not sure what will happen with that sick but anything is possible. the former fighters fate now hangs on whether he'll be extradited back to russia or granted political asylum sara fair r.t. . one norwegian t.v. reporter craig spain's hometown think managed to cross into norway and while

there's anybody who has to stop it with that we have to hear some futuristic forecasts predicting a battle for the arctic are responsible analysis shows the majority of the frightening scenarios on the future of the arctic have no grounds whatsoever their goal is to provoke clashes among the arctic states and so that those who make the predictions can fish for something in the murky waters but i am absolutely sure that all the existing problems including the ones over the continental shelf can be resolved in a manner of partnership and according to the law the five know the neighbors who fish in these dark cold waters are russia canada the us norway and denmark at stake now are massive amounts of untapped oil and gas estimated to be over twenty percent of what the planet has to offer but many fear that a territorial crisis over the arctic which for millenia has been a vast quiet block of ice could suddenly start to boil and for the people who call

this tranquil place home an invasion of industrialization is on the horizon for many years people thought the arctic was this frozen wasteland that no one lives here no one survives here is a place for polar bears and a good news and the reality is that the arctic is a vibrant place with rich natural resources rich human resources where people live and survive daily and who love it choose to live here but some of the history's saddest chapters were written on the white pages of these glass years during the. cold war it was one of the world's most militarized regions with nuclear missiles placed there the warheads may have gone but oil and gas drills i likely to replace them environmentalist question just how safe big struction technology will be in this stuff to retain especially with the gulf of mexico disaster and its lingering

to this question and that is they came and they were recommended by some of the warlords and these warlords are really milking the u.s. government and the u.s. military they're making a lot of money and of course we all know the story of what happened in tora bora back in november and into. two thousand and one when it was summer bin laden actually escaped from tora bora thanks actually to the very allies of the us military the of gun warlords who some of them according to reports took money and let many almost one thousand al qaeda fighters really escape and this confirms actually that we will have problems about these militias and these mercenaries getting out of control at some point in the future. getting married without permission can be very dangerous for some young people and normal thing in india they face threats of violence and even death from angry relatives and village councils a group of volunteers called commom days that taking up the battle against the oppression of those who marry out find their cost karen singer.
