nine years on the afghan war is turning cybering us soldiers are quitting we're playing. into the hands of the taliban as they upload videos of your own questionable behavior. fresh clashes ahead of the parliamentary election in kyrgyzstan meanwhile the country's victimized is back minority saying they need shelter from the cold rather than war political shenanigans. is our t.n.f. we have american we asked whether u.s. overseas broadcasting seeking to broaden its reach while slamming the competition. coming up in the business update the ruble climbs to its highest rate against the dollar instantly find out the details on the wall in about twenty minutes time.

you're watching r t coming to live from moscow i'm marina joshie welcome to the program the war in afghanistan today and as it stands here with a little sign of an end extra american troops may now be in place but public support for the campaign is slipping rapidly with about two thousand nato troops killed in the conflict it's a critical time for the u.s. led campaign as it struggles to turn around the fight against the taliban ahead of the expected withdrawal of international forces next year get officials continue to back the coalition's efforts but even they admit that after all this time there's still no tangible result and artie's publicly your reports the online and takes of american soldiers are hardly helping matters.

up in smoke and with a justified or not tempers flying in the. culprits soldiers who can be heard saying send test before posting the clip on the internet even if by burning the house occidental a copy of the koran is bought and. that can be easily used as a tactic or as a means of acting more. religious history of them to go and join the taliban and al qaeda and it seems to be working more and more islamic extremist websites are posting direct links to videos put up on the web by the soldiers themselves in blogs and social networking sites it's the enemy who's now wanted to be helping the taliban fight its cause they can easily be copied by al-qaeda and the taliban. make. the

us forces fail video clips if you want here. you want to hang. out in some cases the us soldiers videos are prankish and childish other times they're downright criminal or extremely provocative in this clip u.s. soldiers burn the bodies of dead muslims facing mecca today in afghanistan the internet is becoming more and more popular but look around it's no surprise that in a place like this there's still only a few people who have access to it so you'd sometimes home connection is so unreliable that every afternoon he's here watching videos that make him angry one of the only we see hundreds of videos about afghanistan nato new americans are talking about human rights you can see the proof online it's along the. internet cafes all the buzz in downtown kabul hundred have been has managed the

small and overcrowded cafe for the past two years and although the connection is slow it's fast enough to keep people locked down. it's easy for people to watch these videos put out by the american soldiers because the most popular videos are on the first page of you tube also when one guy sees a video. he told his friend. less than a decade ago when the taliban was in power home computers were banned there were only three places in kabul that had internet but now the global jihadists understand that sometimes an e-mail might just be myself then the sword. wants a new e-mail and so. buy a mobile phone and. make money but a good video clips the word it seems always has a way of getting out of good people not to describe the thing in the internet because everything you see is consumed in the life but the taliban picking up on

the form of communication it once banned it now falls on coalition troops to censor themselves. r.t. kabul. talking about the u.s. strategy in afghanistan canada's rondo an analyst from the international crisis group believes washington has had no clear idea what it's doing there from the word go. there are a lot of disagreements in the u.s. government with the state department with the u.s. military i was other sections of the u.s. government there's no real cohesiveness to the policy and that's become extremely problematic on the ground here in terms of rolling out a counterinsurgency strategy it's been the military has been at the forefront but of course counterinsurgency is more than just guns and being on the front line it's more about you know providing governance building institutions it's unclear whether or not united states really knows how much money time blood sweat and tears will

have to be invested in order to bring this country up to a place where it can be stabilized to some extent. just days ahead of parliamentary elections a fresh wave of violence has flared in kyrgyzstan a mob stormed the headquarters of a leading political party in the capital bishkek it followed a protest staged by relatives of those killed in riots that broke the central asian country in april and toppled the president they were angered at alleged claims the party was intending to reinstate the ousted president sunday's vote will create the region's first parliamentary democracy but it comes just three months after a deadly ethnic conflict in the country south going off reports from the volatile area. with this woman asked us not to reveal her identity she says it's. just like many other ethnically divided city being lost everything. being forced to survive taking any work they can fight.

us then lead the way there is no stability there is still tension no one trusts the government and how could we off to what happened to those of us who could already left other than looking for ways to get out. burned down shops destroyed pharmacies in abandoned cafes. second largest city in june it fell into complete chaos. destroyed shops set cars ablaze and. officially hundreds were killed several thousand were injured by the time the country's interim government managed to take control of the situation mobilizing the army. quarters are only now beginning to recover. everything was burned here everybody's fleeing to look for jobs but we must rebuild before it's. construction is being carried out with the sounds of political education feeling in the streets like the rest of the country is getting ready for

the parliamentary elections. are spread both in the. populated areas and here this is one of the districts of the city as you can see it was almost completely destroyed by the violence and a similar picture can be seen in a dozen other parts of reconstruction here is in full swing despite the lack of money and people and for most of the locals this is a race against time to rebuild their homes before the bitter winter hits and that for them is a far greater importance than any election. state funding is very limited if in fact there is any many local c. the only hope they are getting is from the red cross. both nine hundred people engaged all together in this some of them to just do so-called the work will. produce our own. we're putting them on a daily basis officially over three thousand businesses were affected by violence

many fewer more ahead. they've been getting messages calling on them to ignore the vote the parliamentary election was about six months ago after president. and his government were all through thousands of protesters and the opposition to control of the country many adults say the interim government has so far field to provide the needed stability especially here in the self where most of the voters don't know what each of the parties even stands for. or. coming up later in the program a journalist murderer still unsolved four years after she was gunned down after a russian police do more to find a killer on a pile kafka. russia's new high tech so his rocket is ready to blast off into orbit find out how the time preparing for a flight to the ice says on your way. to the u.s.

my claim to be a champion of freedom of speech but not it seems if it's coming from russia and iran venezuela or china they have the media organization which oversees america's international broadcasting says it must up its game to combat the rise of what it called autocratic t.v. stations including this one has more. it's a common belief on capitol hill that the best way to raise money from congress is to scare them walter isaacson the head of a government agency that manages u.s. international broadcasting apparently wants a lot of money the cost to fight america's enemies in the media which he identifies as he ran venezuela russia and china. we can't allow ourselves to be out communicated by our enemies there's that freedom house report that reveals that today's autocratic leaders are investing billions of dollars in media resources to

influence the global opinion you've got russia today iran's press t.v. venezuela's telos and of course china as a launching international broadcasting twenty four hour news channels correspondents around the world spence portably set aside six to ten billion dollars we've got to go to capitol hill with that number to expand their overseas media operations to me it sounded like a declaration of information war but leader mr isaacson backtracked i don't take a russia or artsy as an enemy and certainly did not mean to imply that they're an enemy so that's just not right maybe mr isaacson really did not mean to offend russia or china it's all a pitch for more money from congress which he's trying to kind of appeal to by saying that other countries are spending more on international communications gear is really the buzzword that's used to try to generate money for the defense department

a cia intelligence agencies and now for international broadcasting but getting the u.s. message across this costly there goes it up mr walter isaacson is heading is called broadcasting board of governors it includes radio stations voice of america one of them and a fairly unpopular middle eastern t.v. channel and all this the board spends more than seven hundred fifty million dollars and it's way more than the budget of r t iran's press t.v. and as well as their list or combined so maybe money does not really make out for global media clout mr isaacson says that it's truthfulness that will make the difference and in the and the truth is on our side and it's that statement that raised the alert with some freedom of speech advocate. it's somebody who says that truth is always on the united states side is a propagandist and not a. journalist and i think that's bad it sets a bad example for other countries when that when they say that because obviously

other countries have their perspectives many times u.s. media is slanted toward the united states even the private media but the credibility of the broadcasting board of governors was under even more scrutiny when reports came out about the white house influence on the b.b.c. reporting after ukrainian presidential election and some experts say american broadcasters that once used to be a powerful voice in the international media are now facing a crisis the problem that they are facing is that the messages they have. how the world is supposed to work is not resonating it's not getting traction it seems washington they still getting used to the increasing volume from media voices giving fresh perspective on world issues going to check on our t. washington d.c. . and artie dot com has a lot more in store for you twenty four hours a day and here's a taste of what's online catching

a man will now have to pay thirty five thousand dollars if they want to snatch a bride clarice and not only can down the age old tradition but have drawn up a punishment including a fine and a jail sentence for anyone that carries it out. and it's no ordinary bikes these russian students are taking out for a span it's a race into space has the test here signs for a vehicle that can be paddled on the moon or more head to our t. dot com. russian investigators are seeking more time to probe the murder of journalist anna politkovskaya she was gunned down in her apartment block of moscow four years ago made her reputation reporting on lawlessness in russia's southern republic of chechnya her family and human rights activists have hit out of police for not doing enough to find her killer oksana boyko reports. denis makes no secret that he likes journalists to intrusive too simplistic to manipulative and they started to describe typical according to polls at least

a third of russians distrust what they read in newspapers or see on t.v. the news fuel still on top of journalists and i'm tired of going out with things that have no impact on society again and again ironically it was a journalist that helped him find justice in two thousand and one he was badly beaten first by thugs done by the russian police to whom he turned for how and when it seemed that everything in his country had failed him one reporter came to me it was on the political screen. tragedy was widely publicized in news papers and on t.v. but only on the political touched upon the real life problems of the people she wrote about strong psychological pressure from the north or each agency the attempts to open criminal cases against us no journalist is willing to take the risk of the green. those things out to the public i say that is based on my nine year experience with that story in the norway goes into eventually how danny's to win

a case against the russian federation and the european court of human rights one of many that political skills mark recchi reporting had led to. a journalist who deals with people's pain as part of their job and tries to actually help people rather than just reflect their stories should not be something out of the ordinary and his main goal was to help people not just write him a piece about them. while she's often credited for rekindling people's faith in justice four years later politicos because only murder still remains unpunished russia's investigative committee says the case is very challenging but the search for the killers and masterminds is still ongoing. because his daughter who over the years has grown a striking resemblance of her mother says the family is still hopeful. and will support my view was still have hope of course but the way the investigation is going and the way the trial went we can tell that the investigators haven't made

much progress i can't see anything that would indicate we're getting closer to the truth. has also become a journalist but she admits that her dedication to the profession is no way near her mother's there is number one priority is your four year old daughter anna people who knew on the political of the station had zero tolerance for their families and official the issue continues to defy them even after her death take this plot for example it was not out of the building we're showing you a wisher with killer in violation of the behavior of such commemorations within five years of a person that there are less scottish are happy you reasons to appreciate her reporting and overbilling go rather through but god is still here attributing to live the condemnation of good there. i tell america our theme moscow.

and our brief look at what's happening elsewhere in the world at least forty tankers carrying fuel supplies for nato forces have been destroyed in two separate militant strikes in southwestern pakistan here the latest attack since the country ordered the closing of its border to trucks carrying vital supplies for coalition forces it followed a nato helicopter strike which left at least two pakistani soldiers that while coalition forces have apologized official say the incident was a violation of international law. official say the chemical storage from the spill that left four people dead and over over one hundred injured it's threatening to flow into the danube river in hungary if it happens the pollution could reach six countries including gracious servian remaining garion authorities have already opened a criminal investigation into the illogical disaster a state of emergency has been declared after the chemical waste burst from a reservoir it's expected that the cleanup will take at least a year. the vast cars of steps are about to witness the latest achievements of the

space industry roaring off into the habits on friday the next crew of the international space station will travel into orbit in a brand new soyuz capsule equipped with cutting edge technology is watching preparations. humanity's highest technology waiting in the wilderness soyuz rockets will soon be planet only link with the international space station hundreds of kilometers above and for decades they've been launched here from baikonur in the middle of the step and because it's done. an ideal launch site. when you go to start you'll see the monument to the conquerors of space on it is written in this place the genius of soviet man was revealed in an instant in the concrete of the cosmos i think you can say better than that about pocono. and the vast concentration of technology here in

the middle of nowhere has just become even more advanced this spacecraft has improved and digitized control power supply and temperature control systems but one thing hasn't changed the humans flying soyuz mission it's this crew like those before them have been training for years for their six month stint on the s i s. the two russians and one american know that in english so is means unity in the international nature of their mission so how will they get on you know personalities in there were very easily excitable and. delist things in a very calm and quiet way so i think we're going to have a. very good working relationship board the space station because we. have i think the same temperament all three of us and amazingly scott will have family coming to visit him on his mission his brother mark is also an astronaut and

will lead the last u.s. shuttle mission to the i assess to be the first twins in space we occasionally flown together in the navy as a test pilot but before that i think we always work at a dairy queen or a twelve years old mopping the floor for the last job we really had that we worked together this lonely launch platform in the wind blast to desert might seem like an odd place to pursue the most advanced of human endeavor but for the past fifty five years it's been doing just. this rocket looks on the outside much like the first launched all those years ago but after years of improvement and preparation this mission plans to push the final frontier. let's cross the world of business now charlotte here with us in the studio and it appears taxes are set to increase hello yes according to find out they could raise

taxes the business is set to rise by four percent the next three years well tell you why after a short break. great for the. voice to face with the news maker. but i welcome to visit the russian president dmitri medvedev for us i mean for

closer and more transparent financial ties the country is the biggest foreign investor in russia because so many russian companies are right to set that that may change as russia tightens up as tax rolls. explains. cyprus is a small island in the mediterranean and it's russia's biggest foreign investor however most of the capital flowing into russia is not separate it's russian want to coming back home from an offshore tax haven easy come easy go with minimal taxes for business top russian tycoon operating through firms registered on cyprus it's been previously so on call protest that it was added to russia's blacklist threatening tax penalties for companies registered there and new double taxation agreement is expected to remove cyprus from the notorious list box will boost information exchange between the two tax authorities but will mean

a lot for structuring of russian business until most of putting more stock for so broad in terms of restructuring of their management structure study in in terms of let's say it takes planning and we have been looking at what what is behind the fish transaction what is the business i think this will be a very important change in the minds of. the assessment analysts say no less than half of the russian real estate business resides in cyprus a common practice has been to register a separate offshore firm as the owner of the russian real estate project it makes it easier to sell the construction by selling as part of the offshore company while in russia this kind of deal would be taxed twenty percent in cyprus it's not subject to jupiter analysts say developers will do everything possible to transfer operations to after all charlotte cations before the new agreement comes in force

in two thousand and fourteen. they will have to study new jurisdictions and develop new schemes but the opportunities that offshore companies provide for the real estate business for example so the developers will devote the time and effort to look for new. russia's finance ministry is to begin work with other european tax friendly countries on greater transparency and information exchange that leaves places such as the cayman islands. which may soon become the nearest destinations to offer a safe harbor from the tax authorities that's an operative core business r.t. . and stay where taxation russia's finance minister says the tax burden for businesses will rise by around four percent in the next three years alexei kudrin says the increase is mainly due to excise duties perpetual alcohol and tobacco along with rising insurance premiums become several months he said there was no

room to cut taxes in russia. the russian businesses may soon have to insure the salaries of their staff in case of bankruptcy under the terms of a new draft bill to be introduced by the economic ministry unpaid wages in russia amounts to more than one hundred million dollars as of the first of september it was almost entirely due to the luck of cash like. and some currency news now and the ruble has grown to its highest rate against the dollar in five moments their green backers fall on by almost three percent in the last three weeks and the weak job growth in the us the ruble is benefiting from rising oil prices analysts say speculators have changed a bearish mood for a push want and with you know most of the russian officials who predicted something gains to the ruble. in time sake a look at how the markets are performing now and here in russia the bosses are mixed with the benchmark my sex life begins to rise this hour all the main players

announced only r.t.s. all the biggest loser of their flying low point five percent markets are also sliding south in europe in early trade with mining stocks leading the downside the footsie and both trading in a narrow range. and is a similar thing. over in asia stocks are down and investor side just a disappointing u.s. jobs report on a strong yen weighs on sentiment trans nikkei closed down no point seven percent. now in other news innovation has become a watchword for the russian economic policy and one company investing in this strongly is russia's largest private or produce oil firm says it aims to triple the amount of oil that it produces using high technology. with what they produce around twenty really in terms of with the help of new technology which goes to produce fifty sixty million tonnes any only that means billions in investment in coral springs more innovation than the whole russian federation.
