human and drug trafficking and most shocking you're full of the killing of serbs both during and off the one nine hundred ninety nine cos of in war using the old office into them be sold on the black markets this report was led by the human rights investigator dick marci and is due to be formally presented to the council on thursday in this report's midst of ossie says that mr touchy is connections to organized crime date back well over ten years when his the need group became the dominant factor within the cost of an liberation army the k l a and in this report mr moss he is highly critical of the international community for largely ignoring the actions of the k l a jury in the costs of the war and as a result mr touchy in those loyal to him have played a dominant role in kaufman politics for the past decades the leaking of this report also coincided with the beginning of legal proceedings in the courthouse into an

alleged case of organ trafficking that was discovered by the calls from police it's two thousand and eight and in this council of europe report mr monti makes a connection with that case and the alleged good harvesting of the k.l.a. in two thousand and all of this comes as tensions are already running high in pristina after the historic elections that the first general elections take place in the region since its unilateral declaration of independence in two thousand and eight mr tutt she's a democratic polity of course of a plane victory in those elections but allegations of vote rigging have led to the other major parties that seem cool for a recount so tensions running high in this council of europe reports causing even more waves to ripple across the already troubled region. from the british serbian alliance for peace as any punishment touching my face is nothing compared to what

he's done to cost. he's faces to put it mildly a difficult time but i think the time he faces is nothing compared the time that those living human beings who were kept in concentration camps and were systematically cut up and then sewn back up again after organs that we removed from them in a series of episodes till they were finally begging to be murdered rather than continually chopped up and let live in that condition i'm sure that anything that happens to him will be mild compared to what he has drawn it's a group at the head of the k.l.a. which took over kosovo from serbia were responsible for and i guess that my expectations this report will be hushed up as much as it is possible to be because so many politicians have invested so much interest into this abysmal awful criminal state this banana republic in the heart of europe which has nothing better to do than traffic in human beings organs drugs and women that's possible for you. and

coming your way later this hour here in our team. why now is the swedish politician decided to take up the case of these accused of the accusers and how to push this through. our team looks have what might be behind sweden's appeal for their release and we can leaks founder julian assange plus. i asked him how is going to be when you're up in space you still haven't been so good then make phone calls you know pain like crazy kyra so it's going to be just just as if he's here artie discovers a love story at a cosmic drone as a space crew prepares to leave for orbit on this. and from ruinous wars to a squandered economy man i believe the u.s. is going through its darkest time yet despite obama's best efforts unemployment statistics have been on a real landless rise since two thousand and eight but as christine for reports the

numbers may in fact be masking the truth. the numbers by any stretch are staggering we just got in the government's monthly jobs report and it really was a disappointment on all counts hope for some holiday cheer at the end of this long tough year but instead the unemployment rate last month rose to nine point eight percent nine point eight percent is the unemployment rate our various hourly earnings no changes by some estimates that rate which translates to fifteen million people is actually closer to twenty percent or thirty million people without a job the bureau of labor statistics conducts a survey of households to calculate the rate and considers people unemployed if they don't have a job have actively look for work in the prior four weeks and are currently available for work people exact smith who we met at the unemployment services office he was using the computers there to try to find a job to sell my house get rid of my car so it's just been

a really very the most difficult experience i've ever had in my life he now stays with friends like a college degree good it's good steals good experience but no income since his unemployment benefits have run out i don't know how many others there are like people out there there may be quite a few so it's probably a lot worse than the figures are true. among those not counted college graduates who can't find their first job those who haven't sent out a resume in more than four weeks and those who simply would never be surveyed because they don't have a landline or a permanent residence that includes washington d.c. resident monica who did not want to give her last name out of work for several months she so far been in eligible for unemployment benefits and has not yet looked for a new job she and her young daughter aliya live in a friend's basement far it is really hard to take care of margaret she says some

days she can't even afford to buy food out. i want to work i want to go to the moon cause give a good story to be able to. take care of her master. in the city where the laws of the land are made a closer look at those left behind just one of many heads that have not and most likely will not be counted the unemployment line it is an image that came to embody the great depression the time when franklin delano roosevelt took office as president of the united states so here at his memorial it is a permanent reminder of that time in history but it is a history that for many americans is starting to repeat itself reporting in washington christine for. our team ever more inside of the crisis faced by millions of americans we talked to george hamon juror founder survive and thrive t.v. every day i'm talking to people that are not only have no hope they are hopeless

with getting a job because there are no jobs it's a total joke a total disaster when you look for jobs you put out one hundred resumes and you get no responses you've got to give up on the concept of a job they're doing everything they can to destroy a job they're making it hard to hire you hire people they're putting all these regulations on companies that they have to pay you know increases in medical insurance these guys are out of touch it's a total joke i mean when i hear these guys on c.n.n. talking about how they think they can improve the economy it's just that they're so out of touch so out of out of the loop that they have no concept of what it's like for an average american in this economy out of work and looking for a job open up your paper look at the classified ads in some cases sometimes there's fewer than five or ten jobs in my city we've got we've got like three hundred thousand people i mean it's just it's ridiculous. and saying one of the you asked

peter wales latest fiery edition of cross talk turns to immigration and where there is an integration there is anger. where there are large concentrations of immigrants it has been a net gain for the states ok when i do even you going to learn is to say that yes but as a. body you argue against that how do you doubt and this is interesting i don't know you are well versed in them bob how to react to that it sounds pretty convincing if any of that is valid and maybe some of it is and i could certainly give you a laundry list as long as my arm the net loss. to me with illegal immigration but. you know we're doing a lot of issues on this although you are looking. at the founder of the wiki leaks website julian assange staying behind bars in britain for at least two more days despite

a court order to release him on bail the ruling has been appealed by sweden a country that once the sounds are over sex crimes allegations we can leaks has published hundreds of thousands of confidential u.s. documents causing an outcry in washington the website has faced repeated attempts to bring it all flying companies such as the master card and pay pal band of nations to weigh us hasn't charged a sound with any crimes but is widely believed to be behind the campaign against the whistleblower. war from justice for solace believes sweden is acting as a proxy for washington with badly wants to plug the wiki leaks. we think visa very very spirits charges we think the allegations of very weak we noticed that the chief swedish prosecutor looked at these original charges and looked at the evidence and said there is no case to answer here for and immediately dropped the case so why is it now all of a sudden since the cables have been released and the government is getting more and more as the u.s. state department other governments around the world. they're getting more and more

embarrassed and these cables are getting more and more revelator e why now is a swedish politician decide to take up the case of basic east of the accusers and how to push this story we just make this about director addition to the u.s. it's just a serious charge a. journalist says the decision to keep the science behind bars is confusing but still hopes and war and terror we hear leaks from continuing to expose secrets the u.s. wants to hide. everyone thought that he'd want to pay one this bail application like his mother left the poor devil and left the goods and then it's earns out the appeal the decision the crown prosecution service here automatically has to act on the swedish authorities decision and now it seems like he's one bail but he's going to be in jail for forty eight zero is very confusing situation how ironic that we're talking about justice in the british goods when that he leaks so much about injustice around the world i think what's really important though is that the daily wiki leaks information is brought out and the next week the leaks are supposed to

be about the bank of america so we'll hear a lot more about business news from wiki leaks regardless of judean project which i think. and you can always keep up to date on our website with all the latest news and other stories here's just some what's online right now at our dot com. as suspected spies it happens to be a young blonde russian woman is released on bail in london banned from her workplace and parliament plus. get an exclusive inside into the war in afghanistan from a man who was there our military contributor review any bush on his blog and plenty of others at r.t. dot com. now the latest space crew is said to have for the have an slater today
