willing to accept growing russian influence at this point they need all the help they can get at the gathering florrie objectivity in afghanistan is a sign russia is back and this time around not as the us cold war anime but as a more to say ally it's still got trouble r t. iraqi lawmakers are demanding their government investigate allegations of war crimes a plea comes a week after the online whistleblower we can leaks released four hundred thousand secret u.s. documents on the war in iraq files detail american forces handing prisoners over to iraq interrogators despite overwhelming evidence of torture the data also sheds light on the fifteen thousand killings over the past six years which were previously unaccounted for iraq's prime minister nouri al maliki says the revelations are aimed at undermining the country's political stability but dad's an overreaction and an unlikely motivation for the leak according to one leading expert on the country. i think that would be very doubtful to imagine the wiki

leaks the soldiers responsible for giving these documents to them have the undermining of the iraqi government in mind when they chose this date and let's bear in mind that there hasn't been an iraqi government for seven months so it's not as likely as if there's many dates to choose from when it comes to releasing this in this sense but i think that the documents certainly do point to a particular problem with the prime ministerial office in iraq it is an office that's been significantly empowered as part of the u.s. exit strategy with its individual sort of special forces units that have supposedly run internal prisons that these documents have now shown so maliki who is almost that close to the finishing line it seems at the moment with relations with iran and syria sort of confirming his role as the next prime minister now seems that he has another hurdle to jump across this is u.s. military documents really unlike any previous media story or the report from iraq this is words from their own mouth which makes it very difficult for them to deny

it and they're not really doing that if you actually listen to what the pentagon and state department spokesman is saying what they talk about is the critical nature of the nature of the leaks and whether u.s. soldiers are informers or people working with the u.s. will be put in danger by them talking about the method of the message rather than the message itself now the men. as itself paints a very different picture of the iraq the americans have been telling us about the last seven years and nowhere is that more true than the issue of body counts general tommy franks who led the invasion in two thousand and three said quite matter of factually we don't do body counts but the americans have been doing body counts and those body counts now combined with the iraqi body count of n.g.o.s and radio agencies so that some fifteen thousand iraqi deaths have not been accounted for so the history of iraq is being written by these documents which are as i say from the americans miles themselves now staying in iraq saddam hussein's former deputy was sentenced to death this weekend tariq aziz was found guilty of persecuting islamic parties by the country's high court the decision to hang as

ease has drawn much international condemnation they say he was the international face of saddam's regime but not being force or and some experts view the sentence as an attempt to divert attention away from the wiki leaks revelations british m.p. jeremy corbyn is among the critics of the trial. the reason they're doing it now correct on this is to divert attention away from the wiki leaks issue because wiki leaks if exposed to torture that has gone on systematically and i think the death sentence pronounced for the territory is to divert attention absolutely no point in this form of victor's justice being carried out to do nothing to reconcile people in iraq i think what we need is a real investigation into the behavior of the occupying forces and the iraqi army and its forces ever since the invasion of two thousand and three cancel the death penalty abandon the whole idea of the death penalty and instead look at the issues of human rights and justice look at the behavior of forces ever since the invasion

took place i do not see the value in executing terakhir seeds anymore than executing anybody else it will not bring the dead back it will further brutalise what is already a very brutal situation the death penalty does not work. to israeli saw. awaiting sentencing after using a palestinian child as a human shield during the onslaught in gaza almost two years ago is the first such conviction since tel aviv reinforced a ban on using civilians in combat against their will policy are mad the boy who was forced into the firing line. measured robber was just nine years old when soldiers grabbed him and made him check for bombs. i was just sitting here is really soldiers took me over there there were two bags and they told me to open them but i didn't know how to do it. he was terrified of the abandoned briefcases which the soldiers thought could be booby trapped and he's frightened family forced

to watch one of us a few one of them put his hand on my son shoulder and made him go into the toilet cubicle i heard a few shots fired soon afterwards i felt like i was dying my little daughter he was with me kept saying they killed him. and yet it was five years ago that israel supreme court made the law crystal clear human shielding is an absolute absolute no no endangered civilians deliberately is absolutely prohibited but the reality on the ground is still very different you had to show his army years in the palestinian territories he knew the supreme court's ruling but watched his sergeant ignore it so did he and the soldiers serving under him so what we did is we just bumped into a house nearby house we grabbed one of the kids we're talking with us put him in the front of the patrol you just walk your patrol in the village with your kid and then no one for a start one hundred sixty complaints were filed about the way soldiers behaved in the gaza war two years ago but only forty seven criminal investigations were ever

carried out most of them have since been closed but i think that the ask a combat soldier and serve in the occupied territories where you use palestinians as human shield is like to ask you to drink coffee in the morning but israeli lawyers say convicting the two soldiers is to the i.d.f. scribus there are always soldiers who step out of line that that's part and parcel unfortunately of running a military operation to say that as a general phenomenon as i.d.f. soldiers you use human shields that's absurd for much of the family they take comfort they find to be getting just. just even if it's only against ranking soldiers and not the commanders they accuse of allowing human shields behind the laws back here to saddam was not to look at some other stories from around the world and yemeni authorities have arrested a woman suspected of sending explosive parcels to u.s. synagogues bombs were found on u.s. bound planes in the u.k.

and dubai officials in yemen have also seized over twenty suspect parcels with suspicion falling on the country's activity the cell last year it attempted to blow up a detroit bound airliner. young men have massacred at least fourteen people during a football match in the northern durance city of some pattern the group armed with assault rifles pulled up in a car and opened fire at point blank range the motive is unclear but police believe the shooting may be linked to the drug straight it comes almost two months after a gunman stormed a shoe factory in the same city and killed eighteen people. iran says it's prepared to hold talks on its disputed nuclear program in a van for the move came after the u.s. confirmed it was working on a new fuel swap deal for the country the u.s. and other western powers accuse iran of using its civilian nuclear program as a cover to develop nuclear weapons iran denies the charges saying its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes. germany's chancellor says immigrants need to do

more to integrate into society at least start by learning the language of their new home when i go marco gave a damning indictment of multiculturalism in the country saying affluence there have utterly failed as r.t. sarah first reports there is a groundswell of feeling among germans that their country's being overrun with foreigners. oh and. learn the language of an accent. we need to have a place. the message to immigrants in germany integration and tough talk from the german chancellor his controversial speech recently friended multiculturalism a failure opening up a flood of debate on an extremely sensitive issue. which is also called gaza strip because from. he has been he's becomes more and more rabid

with high integration of the past few decades germany has seen the developments of monocultural communities such as new clothes in west berlin foreign influence in this area really is very evident in a lot of foreign and foreign shop fronts and at this the discussion is about education failures welfare abuses and crime within immigrant and you've got real problems with many of the pumping in the president says a lot of people fill holes about immigration. recent survey conducted by the friedrich foundation in germany found that almost a third of respondents felt that immigrants were coming to exploit the country's welfare system and should be sent home when jobs were scarce and almost the same amount for the country was being overrun by foreigners do you have a mix so you have a german here and you have english here and english here and this is turkish this

is this is nice so everybody can read but if it is only. turkish people very few strange. where am i living this is an arabian city merchant the ensuing to beit has focused on muslim immigrants with migrant families reluctant to integrate into a society that they feel is prejudiced against them i don't think that changing my personality or the way i look the way our talk or my even my mother tongue would change. have an effect on the german culture projects like this local community center and aiding integration and teaching children the german language from an early age but with few bilingual arabic or take if schools families likenesses sending their children to private schools where they do not yet learn german despite the tough rhetoric from the top germany

acknowledges that immigration is desirable for its economy migrants have to be willing to integrate we need people in all of the industrial countries because we have not so many kids anymore i have no kids not of germans have no kids so where should the kids come from to work and help the industry going on so we need people from other countries to come in get it himself no one would talk much in society if they knew how often they misunderstood others and a major challenge now with the debate blown wide a parent would be to chime bridge cultural divides which have been simmering quietly for a long time. sarah firth r.c. . and the recap of the week's top stories is coming up in just a few moments here in r.t. stay with us.
