use of johnny walker red label over here believe it had over four different kinds of smear. for some rocky smuggling alcohol into neighboring iran is the only way to make a living party falls a poor man's trade route. the way seems to lift the curtain on twenty alleged russian spies arrested in the cold war and what many experts saw as a decoy in georgian political infighting. declassified documents show the u.s. media have been on the white house payroll for decades garnering public support for america's wars. eleven am in the russian capital you're watching r.t.m. marina joshua welcome to the program one hundred forty two iraqi civilians who claim they suffered abuse by british soldiers are waiting to hear whether the u.k.

so high court will allow a full public inquiry the allegations include torture or sensory deprivation force nakedness and stress positions the abuse allegedly took place in british controlled detention centers in iraq between two thousand and three and two thousand and eight the u.k. ministry of defense says it's investigating claims that there is no need for a public inquiry such probes have already been launched for two similar cases involving the alleged torture and killing of civilians by british soldiers david scheiner one of the lawyers taking the current case to the high court says abuse is systemic and any inquiry has to be public. has not done that this is systemic within the interrogation. policy because we have those documents from the bottom of some court so we know for example that there was a policy of getting them make you get the make you keep them like peter if they don't cooperate by the way in which there was to be searched the harshing we have

fun video. the training videos it's on the bottom of the website these are clearly systemic issues and it's absolute nonsense to suggest this is a few bad apples that's the interrogation and needs to be exposed and we need to ensure that we never go into theatre again with with an interrogation policy which is blatantly unlawful. the lack of opportunities in iraq forces many civilians to make a living illegally often putting their lives at risk just to earn a few dollars r.t. sébastien mayor matt some locals in northern iraq are trying to survive by smuggling alcohol across a dangerous border with iran. in northern iraq kurdish smugglers load their horses with hundreds of boxes of booze they're taking into a brain. although alcohol is forbidden in the islamic republic much of tehran's boars wasn't can't resist a drink and these smugglers provide them with an extraordinary selection we hear in

a smuggler storm in a mountainous area of northern iraq that borders around the absolute fuck you hear teachers here mr chavez whiskey black and white whiskey back here we have johnny walker black label we have johnny walker red label over here and we even have over four different kinds of smear not. this box of what will cost a smuggler a hundred and five dollars in iraq he will sell it in tehran for over four hundred one of the profits appear amends to men who actually take the dangerous journey are paid a mere fifty dollars a night this is not work for those looking to make a fortune he does work for the poor uneducated in desperate dollars that i do this because i'm a literate are using your i was so this is the only job i can do out of the rain is brutal in its approach to keep alcohol out a smuggler recently arrested and was sentenced to life by others who have been wounded in police ambushes have been fined up to half

a million dollars to invent charge the price of the bullets that were shot at them with a mind of a step down. we crossed the border and there are explosions shootings i restore fights terrible most nothing we can do because we have who are oh it. is the job dangerous but the living conditions are bleak on the iraqi side of the small river that makes the border so it's a series of shanty towns full of tattered shacks they serve a small shelters for the smugglers as well as stables for the horses the police is filthy and stinks of horse down there and when it is this isn't a lion and there's no food or drink it's given the cold in the wet now and it will lead you down. on the other side said hundreds of a rainy. border police summon concrete towers and canvas tents but ruthless in their pursuit to keep the smugglers out of their country a few days before we arrived we mounted an ambush on one of the smugglers. that

came from the other side and took three of my muse back across the border and showed everyone. the remains left the corpses rotting on the riverbank as a warning to the smugglers nine a phone call comes in soon that is clear the smugglers quickly finish packing their horses and then take off towards the border what awaits them on the iranian side is uncertain what is certain is tomorrow the same dangerous job away to those who are desperate enough to do it sebastian meyer. on the iran iraq border. now watching r.t. live from moscow plenty has for you this hour including. business was one of the main advantages of having a baby is the abundance of great universities lined the main street here in the city center and one of the six people. of education. is it's one of russia's fast as developing regions where innovative industries are mushrooming. and tbilisi is

expected to reveal details of a scandal involving twenty georgians caught last month allegedly spying for russia and georgia has so far refused comment saying it will make the story clear on november the fifth. what's known so far. this is a story that has more questions than answers at the now answers at this particular moment the only thing that we know so far is that there are very few facts and lots and lots of speculation we know that twenty people have been arrested sometime next over a blight george's ministry of interior fares and they were accused of this do you know i should before russia now this is were pretty much the facts and to because the ministry of internal affairs has refused to call them and the news about the arrests or broken last friday the interior ministry said they will not give out any comments until today which is it exactly one week after the news of their arrests were broken and there is some leaks that have been made to george impressed by the lawyer of at least two of the people who are accused of espionage and she said that

for clients who were arrested in the middle of october october eighteenth to be precise and that they were accused of espionage for russia and they were given a preliminary to put two month prison sentence now and there are many peculiar points about the story of course one of those being the fact that the ministry of internal affairs of georgia has kept him on about this case for what it seems like at least two weeks another aspect is that the news was broken by foreign media sources which a lot of critics say is out of her to offer when someone aspiring of such dimensions as this is purported to be has been broken usually of that in the with the minister of internal affairs to whoever does their arrest is a priding themselves on the on this on the circumstances and actually makes they announced it not so in this case also we have to remember this is not the first time a spy story between russia and georgia comes to the foreground back in two thousand and six four russian offices were arrested in georgia on suspicion for spin of course they were later released but that's took relations between most goods

believe see to it never before seen low after the georgia south the city of war in two thousand and eight diplomatic relations between russia and georgia were officially broken and have not been restored ever since so what this curve. and spy scandal that will do to relations between most go into these things yet remains to be seen. reporting there and you can always find more news videos and blogs on our website or t dot com and let's take a look at some of our online stories right now and they're going to dangerous seem to be falling into a travesty of birds promote a cure all wonder well but it's not free of side effects. of them all shoot them all games like this are getting ever more popular but make sure you have plenty of room when you play you could damage the furniture around you we've got more about brushes directive games fare on our team dot com.

now one state's halfords to promote his democratic interests have led to some shocking results across the world so-called independent media sources have been sponsored by the u.s. government for nearly thirty years to convince the public of the need for america's wars are the scale and ford reports in the recently declassified evidence. when most americans open a newspaper they expect all the news that's fit to print not to plan but declassified documents show that in the one nine hundred eighty s. the state department was doing exactly that known as white propaganda editorials and stories were planted and pushed in major u.s. media outlets the washington post c.b.s. usa today the new york times and more. ensuring favorable coverage of the

controversial contra war in central america the office of public diplomacy had a very innocuous sounding name but in fact it was a sinister covert office running eagle propaganda operations hello my name is art all right meet the man at the forefront of this effort cuban american cold warriors and former head of the office of public diplomacy for latin america has the reputation of a tough operator that's a lot you are telling a lie employing special psychological operations experts to craft messages for the american public putting people secretly on the u.s. payroll reporters writers and having them then pretend to be independent and writing op ed pieces and nobody would know that this was a u.s. government financed and directed opinion but from these declassified documents we know that auto reich was behind these similar tactics were used by the bush administration and the lead up to the iraq war the iraq war is

a textbook case of how a government or a couple within a government uses propaganda planting stories in the u.s. media to convert public opinion favorably toward a war within a matter of days on september eighth the new york times michael gordon judith miller published a front page long story you know which they talked about how u.s. intelligence officials had. found out that saddam hussein had purchased llewyn tubes which they believed could only be used for nuclear weapons what they did not say of course was that that was a minority view within the intelligence community the drums of war beat faster the u.s. invaded in march two thousand and three in two thousand and nine and mediately after the president of honduras was overthrown in a military coup i don't reich resurfaced in the mainstream media quoted by columnists interviewed by pundits. well what i want to know about stuff like

this there's nobody else better to call than the guy you're about to meet right here you could better explain what is happening and just about everybody else otto reich is who i'm talking about every since he was in charge of what he was doing back in the eighty's and he's been around like a like a ghost and you see him personally writing op eds for important newspapers in the u.s. and you see him working behind the scenes for mongers in honduras and what you what you have to wonder is who's paying him to do so why propaganda has proven effective in garnering support for america's more contentious foreign policy the office of public diplomacy it became the sacrificial lamb of the iran contra scandal follow your congressional investigation otto reich moved on unscathed first to become ambassador to venezuela then assistant secretary of state he remains an influential consultant here in washington frequently quoted in the media and regularly called

to testify here on capitol hill as an expert witness for our t. washington d.c. . norman solomon american media critic and founder of the institute for public accuracy says political lobbying by a powerful government in democratic societies much more dangerous than in totalitarian states. in a dictatorship often it doesn't matter what people think and so propaganda is often less rigorous in a society with important elements of democracy it's all the more important to try to affect public opinion this is a characteristic of governments around the world there's a lot of spinning out of the governments and those who are aligned with it through the news media the propaganda game it's all the more important when it's a powerful country perhaps most important for the world when it happens in the united states and we have that going on where there are economic political social and military agendas being pushed and the end result is we have this worldview of being reinforced all the time which often has very little to do with human rights

when you have this contradiction of how human rights as a standard is applied in practice when you have a multiple set of definitions of human rights and orwellian terms then you've got what you got from our right in the one nine hundred eighty s. in the reagan administration and all too often what you still get today. and for the first time ever the u.s. is coming under review by the u.n. human rights council the body will examine allegations of abuse committed by americans and as. far from the american civil liberties union suggests the scrutiny could raise problems for the u.s. as its human rights record is far from impeccable. there have been some advance questions submitted by by countries in advance of the review including by the russian federation and the issue of torture for example is a question that was raised by the russian federation we think very appropriately as it stands now in the united states sadly in the in the so-called war on terror victims of torture and rendition have been denied their day in court the federal

government has been able to use judicially created dr and including what's called state secrets privilege to prevent civil lawsuits alleging torture. and degrading treatment and this is something that has prevented victims of torture from even having a day in court even having the opportunity to have their grievance heard so our hope is that these issues will be. will be discussed in the us will have to explain these issues and we will be able to pass legislation domestically which would limit the ability of the united states to use the state secrets privilege in qualified immunity to allow victims of torture to have their day in court and also to for the government to affirmatively prosecute perpetrators of torture as you your viewers may be aware in the last few days we've heard that former president bush had given an approval of waterboarding and as as this wrecking internationally recognized waterboarding as a form of torture and so we're hoping that the obama administration and those in government will prosecute or those who engage in torture and those who ordered

torture. and brief look at some other stories from around the world and the death toll from indonesia's deadly toll kaino has climbed to one hundred two after the latest blast shot out clouds of hog gas and debris more than seventy people were injured many of them critically eruptions of mount merapi have intensified in the last few days triggering mass evacuations experts fear that a new lava dome forming at the mouth of the crater could collapse triggering another massive deadly surge. of private aircraft carrying at least twenty people has crashed after takeoff near the airport in the. southern pakistani city of karachi the aircraft is thought to have been carrying oil company employees to an oil field in the same province officials say all those on board have been killed the incident comes four months after an airliner crashed in stormy weather around the pakistani capital islamabad killing one hundred fifty two people. up next is

our tease close of series as we continue to explore the many diverse parts of russia. this week we traveled to the tomsk region which lies in western siberia the city of toms because earned itself the title of russia's major i.t. hub and one of the country's fast as developing innovation based centers test our celia has been finding out what makes tom's tick. well we are here in tongs in southwestern siberia now this is a very important region for oil exploration and production companies some of the major industries here are machine building metalworking and tell but over the years this region has also diversified their industries and they have become known as a town of science and an important economic center here in siberia and it's also a center for nuclear research and production however today investment is flowing

into new volatility new and growing industries and that includes technological innovation scientific research and development as well as start up companies well tom is continuing to carve a name for itself in technological and scientific innovation now in this report we'll look at some of the people behind this effort as well as the business ventures that have come out of this region. it's one of the oldest towns in siberia but it was only officially open to foreigners in one thousand nine hundred ninety today wooden houses hundreds of years old still line the streets and there contrasts it by the youthful enthusiasm of students who flock to toms the home of siberia's first university. is a graduate of the thomas cloyd technique university he's only twenty four but he's already working on a ph d. and is running his own welding company with twenty six branches all over the country. i started doing this three and a half years ago while still in underground where we first models in

a small garage then we want to few contests and received grants which allowed me to launch a company. but in the world of business a great idea needs money to get off the ground. and that's where venture capitalists like nikolai but dual income in. my business is. different ways i could invest and i found something was best. it's creating new products new technologies. one of the many businesses. but julian invested in is this water purifying technology it's still in the testing stage but he believes in its potential. at first the main goal was to filter out viruses but now we're more concerned with heavy metals arsenic in particular well after the process of filtering the water this is apparently drinkable so let's try.

nope no arsenic there but dylan has another project up his sleeve a new technology that may be able to advance the battle against cancer. in two thousand days we started testing the drug silver all on twenty eight counties eighteen later tested healthy scientists still need to study this drug but i personally have not seen anything better for treating leukemia business must say one of the main advantages of having a baby so when tom says the abundance of great minds universities live the main street here in the city center and one in every six people is pursuing some form of education. we were told that in this town it's cool to be an intellectual well one intellectual locals aren't cool with this russian playwright and don't check out who once wrote a sister saying tomsk is a very dull town to judge from the drunkards whose acquaintances i've made and from

intellectual people come to tell their respects to me the inhabitants of. chekhov's unfavorable comments earned him this marking statue and amusing reminder that the people of tom's don't take kindly to such remarks even from an intellectual. class are cilia r.t. reporting from the tomsk region. and after the u.s. midterm congressional elections the republicans are more eager than average to put a spanner in the works of president obama's agenda kratz however challenge them to come up with better solutions and a discussion ground this discussion around this got pretty heated cross talk show it's coming up in less than ten minutes but here's a taste or. so the tea party is going to have to compromise but they haven't got a clue about their positions because they will not be able to stop spending on social security and medicare those are desperately necessary to stop poverty in the

state about what about defense and i exactly right and they will not be able to and they refuse they refuse to say that the fence spending can be cut even though secretary gates says it can be so they have no clue as to how to really stop government spending ok to let me ask you this does anybody have a clue or is anybody going does anybody have a clue let's be honest neither. do i agree oh no come here it is a good outline but nobody. is coming about ten minutes time before that child is here with the latest business news. and i welcome to the business program here and with me. the sky is the open once again across russian pilots no longer need to seek permission to fly in the city but while certain regulations for light weight been canceled some up schools remain

as the native unfaded explains. this guy's a little russia open to small of the session as of this week light aircraft flying below three thousand meters no longer have to seek permission from their route twenty four hours it had been given permission authority is now required pilots to notify them of their flight plans small of nation existence is far from floor showing and while the new rules are welcome once more law doesn't make a summer as the saying goes on an international regulations regional regulations are still an obstacle to open skies it's a rather small but important development for russia's air industry well it's a little small aviation can become a good base the pilot training because now you face a serious deficit of pilots small aviation can also keep alive the whole range of regional airports all over russia in the future and may even form the basis of commercial transportation. unlike europe and united states flights over big cities

up and regional flights have to navigate a mountain of people who are it requires commercial and political will to develop the segment legislation might ease the way through but it wouldn't change dramatically if saw a market driven. and in our case or in case of the aviation market development in russia it's about the mentality change mine your own russia even in small planes is still a lot of room then and every day reality with the russians vast territory to develop air transportation at all levels we're going to starting small but the potential benefits are huge. zinaida movie business r.t. . now the federal reserve's decision to pump extra dollars into the u.s. economy is the worst thing they could day go into economists and co-author of the

gathering storm were eighteen investment experts published their views about the global economy. decision to increase quantitative easing by six hundred billion dollars is a complete disaster i mean we're not in a situation where the total is going to be something like eight hundred fifty to nine hundred billion dollars by the end of next year and that's going to be approximately one hundred ten billion per month which effectively means that really what we're seeing is a sort of a repurchase agreement of the american deficit if you look at the economics actually manufacturing was rebinding in october according to american statistics true there hasn't been a particularly exciting number of private sector hiring but the truth is that actually the job picture was improving ever so slightly within the private sector which is the engine of the american economy the american government is certainly not the retail sales have been remarkably strong over the course of time therefore it's quite bizarre because what we're risking is an economic and market distortions

the dollar is being pushed through the floor and that's really the sort of a polling beggars our neighbor kind of approach which isn't going to help the american economy because it's simply making imported foodstuffs more and more expensive and creating inflation for the average working mom while at the same time it's basically leaving places like the eurozone with a further problem because it's increasing the value of the currency and making those economies less competitive. time around have a look at the locket the performing in on the green day for asian stalls that high on friday following gains on wall street closely related shares are on the rise the meantime the next aligning with about five point three percent and in fact going to from four percent in take. day for now we can always find most or it's on our website if you don't call.
