a brutal litany of torture killing lies and cover up the truth of the iraq war revealed by whistle blowing web site and weekly leaks which has published four hundred thousand secret american files in the largest ever meet of classified u.s. documents from. the winter of discontent two losers french finance traitors protest over president sarkozy's mansion plans raising the age of retirement to sixty two still one of the lowest in europe while british trade unions get ready for mass marches to counter a severe government spending cuts. and in the big construction works and so should help to reveal the russian cities and paused with their ruins of an eighth century temple discovered underground.

news from russia and around the world this is all she with me you leadership of our thanks for joining it's a staggering litany of killings summary execution and torture the contents of almost four hundred thousand secret military u.s. files which lay bare the truth of the iraq war whistle blowing web site we can leaks has published the largest ever leak of classified american documents along with death toll statistics collated by u.s. officials but was the country had previously denied existed and that has more from london in the report with pictures you might find disturbing. the files contain evidence of nearly one hundred ten thousand violent deaths that took place in iraq in the years between two thousand and four and two thousand and nine two thirds of them it seems from these files that's around sixty six thousand deaths were the deaths of civilians during this combat half of those were killed by the iraqi insurgency and hoff it seems when the documents were killed by a lloyd's troops in military action the u.s.

always said it's the weak which is what's interesting about this that it wasn't keeping a record of civilian deaths when in fact it turns out from these files that the u.s. military was keeping a very detailed record of what was going on in some of these files contain the names of civilian people who have died at the locations the exact timings of the deaths and of course they haven't been released into the public domain before but now there's been a press conference here in london this morning releasing these details and at that press conference with wiki leaks founder julian our soldiers and he talked about that famous quotation that truth is the first casualty of war as far as what the results of today's leak will be it seems that that will be some legal action that will result from this one of the organizations that which leaks has cooperated with in the release of these documents is something called public interest lawyers they are dealing with allegations from iraqis of british and u.s. forces torturing them in iraq and they say that that will certainly be a legal case to answer as

a result of this my colleague paulus leo went recently to fill a job which was the subject of a future military action in two thousand and four and she filed this report about the plight of ordinary iraqis his friends outside fighting for the board on a football pitch he's here in the family tent fighting a cancer that eating away at his head and stomach. i collect the splinters of the rocket after exploded whoever showed them to said they were american and contaminated poisoned. after the shrapnel struck sixteen year old maddox had a tumor appeared while his father lost a leg in the attack and also the family source of income as a taxi driver. i wonder if there are any weapons they didn't use against us we all can terminated sometimes i can hardly breathe. iraq has invested with buildings like this that used to be the headquarters of saddam's secret police in two

thousand and three several jodan rockets has had the full effect of those weapons is still being felt today. u.s. marines first bombarded flew just six years ago it came after four employees of the american security company blackwater were killed and their bodies burnt and reports show that after the eight month standoff higher rates of cancer leukemia and infant mortality were found here than in hiroshima and nagasaki after the atom bomb drop in world war two we found that the infant mortality rates compared with egypt and. jordan were about four or five times. and about ten times more if you take a country like kuwait but you know. in the last few years hundreds of deformed babies have been born in flu just general hospital doctors dubbed them the white phosphorous children. between the late ninety's and two thousand and three we had

patients with nervous system malfunctions roughly three times a year at the moment we're getting three such patients a week this child was born with one eye and with not a single day going past without a new case being registered more and more doctors here are pointing a finger at the united states. the american combat operations caused environmental pollution both the u.s. and british sides admitted that they employed banned weapons. dr abdul al floozy is also a father or at least he was until a year ago when his twelve year old son died of cancer most parents leave their babies in the hospital they're scared by the way they look these babies are doomed to die and die they do far from the eyes of the world because while flu just streets might today be quiet the city remains cut off from the rest of the country doctors here say they're under pressure to keep quiet policy r.t. iraq the u.s.

has criticized the really saying it could in danger the lies of security personnel on the ground but we can make founder julian assange says revealing the truth was vital to prevent such atrocities from happening again i actually spoke to him in london this is the most accurate description of a war that is ever being released into the historic record we see that is nearly no street corner in baghdad didn't have a body found that being killed through violence of one form or another for the everyday squalor of war of course for the people in baghdad and other cities in iraq was their everyday life for years and years and we need to understand what the reality of war is if we're going to choose to engage in it and have the full interview with the founder whistleblower wiki leaks

logon to our website at r.t. dot com. and while brownback of the director of the antiwar also coalition says the united states is directly responsible for their trials it is committed in the iraq war. the police force is an army that were trained by the americans who are allegedly the protectors and guarantors of iraqi freedom engaged in systematic torture abuse rape and it was unreported and unpunished by their masters by the u.s. trainers so i think there's no reason to think that this is an ongoing as a result of these revelations the un chief investigator for torture for instance has called on barack obama to investigate those in the u.s. military and civilian government for criminal acts against the iraqi people if the u.s. takes now actions to repress wiki leaks it may very well backlash backfire and instead of repressing them and intimidating them and their supporters create a groundswell of worldwide support for them the people want justice they want the

truth i think the biggest obligation is for the american people to take hold of this information about what their government did in their name with their tax dollars and with the blood of their young people against a nation that was at peace with them in two thousand and three when they invaded i hope that there will be a massive global investigation for prosecution of george w. bush for war crimes. this is all c.n.n. still to come on the program this sunday expanding the universe of make the. millions of americans are very frightened of the state of the u.s. economy more and more u.s. citizens are trying to escape into the world of fantasy so i want to get house americans are using superpowers just trying to with the effects of the global downturn. creep could have been a treasure hunters a long time ago and actually over the years part of this temple was destroyed by locals as they use the ancient storms to decorate their homes know this place is

approved by the same. one who were out here surely now in dissatisfaction i know because i personally am huge demonstration shoulder to shoulder with people who are younger than twenty five or twenty six years old but still have the same attitude to the problem that you will be one of these people fight against what they believe to be a grave injustice of their very struggle has brought one of europe's most famous city. yes at times to a standstill a beautiful apartment in the heart of paris is anyone's dream but what if getting that dream became impossible through no fault of your own what if getting your apartment done on time depended not on you not on your workers not on your construction or anybody involved but on people standing outside in the streets. victor has his own successful construction business he prides himself on his fast skilled work but recently his projects have fallen behind schedule through no fault

of his own. i'm sick and tired of all these strikes and protests with the people who really want to work they just work on like protesters who are interested only in demonstrations i'm personally not interested in it enough victor isn't the only person feeling this way we ask everybody to just to just. but just prevent other people to do their work and just trying to to. the country to the economy. in france we don't want them to block. in one thousand nine hundred five the french people managed to derail through protest a previous attempt to change the country's pension system however it appears they've not got a choice. critics of the unions who led the charge against sarkozy's pension plans say it's now time to step back and consider the ongoing protests hurt small and

medium businesses the engine of the country's economy while those who are in charge in business and politics in the run up to the financial crisis that brought about the pension reform continue to thrive cash readers are pairs. and of course you can always have your sound on that story at our website our home let's see what else was just a click away for you in our what home page. for the big spenders and the simplest here is check out moscow's millionaire fair where you can pick up hot items like cars and diamond encrusted saucepans wonder how that could be used for cooking all of it could be scrubbed clean. and turned american silent movies to have been lost forever have reemerged in russia have been presented as a surprise gift to the us for all to buy a ground go to r.t. dot com.

a u.s. proposal to impose restrictions on exports and boring has run into opposition to the g twenty meeting in south korea germany is german and russian representatives have criticized the proposal as a blunt economy investment strategist peter schiff told all see that washington is actually to blame for creating the global economic conditions that they believe necessitates such constraints. policies that we're pursuing here in america are exacerbating the very imbalance that treasury secretary claims he wants to rein in you know the biggest offender is the united states because we're the ones that are spending so much we're borrowing a tremendous amount of money we're importing all these products around the world running these horrific trade deficits and current account deficits and what are we doing with our economic stimulus the stimulus is designed to get americans to spend even more money to drive these global imbalances to an even wider level we do need

to reduce the level and balances but to do that america needs to save more america needs to produce more and we're not going to do that with the current policies in place we need to totally reverse course we need to shrink the size of our government we need higher interest rates in america not low interest rates we need to encourage people to save their money not go deeper into debt and so we can address the imbalances but to continue these failed policies and try to blame the rest of the world for what is inherently an american problem makes no sense and while trying to meet as a brainstorming on solutions to the global recession many americans prefer to put reality on home as the threat of financial nightmares contains some new yorkers ask a ping to the one of coal makes things in the pacific and a hassle. for two years now the world economy in the u.s. has turned into an ocean of horror from many how do you scape your fears by saying

building work for the twenty fourteen games on his dentist but let's get visited this side of the remarkable discovery. it could be a scene from an indiana jones movie archaeologists try to solve the secrets left behind by architects of an eight century temple these ruins in the middle of the caucasus are considered among the most prized discoveries in the area but you. just take a look at how good these pipes are they almost didn't break when they fell down it appears that they were embedded in the wall so that the fireplace could be spread around so now we'll be able to put the pieces back together and see how this heating system works when limited to little wood was picked as a construction site for future olympic venues for the sochi winter games in two thousand and fourteen almost every corner was carefully surveyed and that's when this part of history was discovered this crypt could have been brought by a treasure hunter is a long time ago and actually over the years part of the temple was destroyed by

thanks for being with us today so what do you think has changed in a way russia and the united states see each other in the light of the so-called reset of bilateral relations. well i think that the main change is that both sides have decided that they should improve their relations there was not such an impression under the former presidents what about the proposal itself to reset relations with russia and the united states does that mean that the u.s.

policy towards us was initially wrong you know it means that the state of relations was wrong it was to blame it's hard for me to say who's policy was right or wrong. russia has condemned the tough sanctions which the united states has he knew laterally imposed on iran can russia count on support from major developing countries or couldn't find itself isolated. no. brazil is joins dialogue on iran's weapons the brazilian president has been to turkey they understand that nuclear weapons can play a negative and destructive role if it gets into iran's hands. everybody understands that the iranian regime is rather radical and infected with elements of extremism the appearance of nuclear missiles in iran's hands may certainly provoke a crisis and urge some countries for example israel to retaliate with a nuclear strike on iran all that may lead to a war which hardly anybody wants that's why the fact that iran may create nuclear weapons is a source of great attention for russia and the united states to seriously is that

when russia refused to deliver as they asked three hundred systems to iran in compliance with nato sanctions to what degree are we neglecting our own interests and counting on reciprocal steps from the united states more involved of course we can and we should but the main thing now is to build all possible bargaining on a.m.d. and possibly north korea into the reset concept some kind of an idea to this effect should emerge. in recent years natives expansion to the east task being the biggest problem in relations between russia and nato yes now the political course in ukraine has changed and at this moment this question is closed as nato exhausts its expansion potential. that let's begin from the fact that nato is a past matter it has no future today we should think about european security in a different way we should switch over to other forms of interaction between russia and the western community we are trying to pave this way while nato is dividing

europe and russia for various reasons it's unlikely to join nato it's too big and it's quite self-sufficient in military terms it doesn't need nato and it's guarantees it will be very well to do without them but it means that for a certain period of time europe is going to be split into nato members and non nato countries namely russia that's going to create unnecessary tensions therefore i think that the very decision to expand nato was poorly thought through as not very reasonable in its time when the do you think russia will make it into the w t o obama's term considering he said he would make it his priority. help russia in this issue there with. russia should certainly become a w t o member has become an active player on the world market even though we get only one percent this is a huge amount dozens of billions of dollars but as nonmembers of the w t o we have to bear are necessary expenses which of course is a hindrance in my opinion this is

a more serious matter than just an economic issue we are quite capable of paying but we see it as discrimination this is an attempt of keeping russia in the waiting room for as long as possible. does that mean he believes obama's words are part of a game of topple standards. from the b. show clinton bush and all other american presidents promised us removing that amendment but it hasn't been removed so far perhaps it's the us congress that is determined not to remove it i don't rule it out as the majority of the u.s. congress is extremely conservative including many neoconservatives this means we have to look for other solutions like forming our own trade zones and agreeing with particular countries on a different regime unilaterally but that's all right we'll survive send the go we have already signed a strategic arms reduction treaty is it possible the senate will fail to ratifying start three. this possibility has been discussed perhaps i'm being too rational but i don't think so this treaty meets the interests of the us as well it isn't about

making unilateral amends for russia this treaty is well thought through and balanced it's a kind of tree where even a simpleton would see the balance it's presented in numbers it can be literally touched but it has no unilateralism this treaty obviously meets the interests of the us unfortunately such issues aren't always up to reasonable people but to all reasonable as well. consequently at this point because failure and a sign of the personal dislike republicans have against him. you're absolutely right this certainly has nothing to do with attitude towards russia they're used to us by now with the us row bomber if a number of those willing to humiliate him exceeds a certain level then the ratification wouldn't happen here. obama is losing his score unfortunately his popularity is dropping evidently when he was running for presidency they had overrated expectations of him then they were expecting him to perform a miracle which never happened.
