this report was led by the human rights investigated 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 cos when liberation army the k l a and in this report mr morsi is highly critical of the international community for largely ignoring the actions of the k l a jury in the cost of the group and as a result mr touchy and 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 a pristina court house 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 two 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 cost of a flame victory in those elections allegations of vote rigging have led to the other major policies that seems 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. reporting there and marco gaza trying to bring a serving alliance for peace says any punishment hushing touching my face is nothing compared to what he's done to cost of all. he's face is 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 are 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 of the head of the k.l.a. which took over kosovo from serbia were responsible for and i guess that my expectation of this report will be parched 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 to traffic in human beings organs drugs and women that's possible for you. and coming your way later this hour here on r t. why now is a swedish politician decide to take up the case of these accused of the accusers

and how to push this through party looks at what by be behind sweden's appeal for the release of we can leaks founder julian assange. i asked him how he's going to be when you're up in space to be so good then make phone calls in the basement crazy so it's going to be just just as if he's here. are to discover the last story out of cosmic drone is a space of who prepares to leave for orbit don't miss it. from reuters for us to squander it economy many believe the u.s. is going through its darkest time yet and despite obama's best efforts unemployment statistics have been on their relentless rise since two thousand and eight but as christine for reports the numbers may in fact be basking the truth. the numbers by any stretch are staggering we just got in the government's monthly jobs report 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 conduct 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 have a college degree good exploded skills good experience but no income since his

unemployment benefits have run out i don't know how many others there are like me but there may be quite a few so it's probably a lot worse than the figures are. 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 amassed a car 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 myself.

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. for more insight on the crisis faced by millions of americans we talk to george happening here founder of 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 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 stay with us peter lavelle's latest fiery edition of crosstalk turns to immigration and where there is immigration there's anger. where there are large concentrations of immigrants

it has been a net gain for these states ok when i do even you going to learn is to say but as a body you argue against that how do you doubt i'm here to stay here now 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 out the net loss to work on me with illegal immigration. now you know we're brothers doing a lot of issues on this although you are looking. at the founder of the we can fix website julian assange to stay 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 the country that wants a son job or sex crimes allegations we can lease has published hundreds of thousands of confidential u.s.

documents causing an outcry in washington the website has faced repeated attempts to bring it offline and companies such as some master card and the pal their donations to a us hasn't charged the sounds of any crimes but is widely. find a campaign against a whistleblower campaign or sharing for justice for sale and believes sweden is acting as a proxy for washington which badly wants to plug the wiki leaks. we think these are 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 the u.s. state department other governments around the world are getting more and more embarrassed and these cables are getting more and more revelator e why now is the swedish politician decide to take up the case of basic. you used all the excuses on how to push this story we just make this about doris tradition

to the us it's just a serious charge. journalists are actually in your towns he says the decision to keep the science behind bars is confusing but still hopes it won't deter wiki leaks from continuing to expose secrets the us wants to hide. everyone thought that he'd won that they won this bail application like his mother left the bullet at will and left the goods and then it sends out that they've appealed 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 and how ironic that we talked about justice in the british glutes when that he said much about injustice around the world i think what's really important though is that the daily weekly leaks information is brought out and the next week the leaks supposed to be about the bank of america so we'll hear a lot more about business news from wiki leaks regardless of judea projects but i think. that it always keep up to date on our website with all the latest news and

other stories here is just some of what's online right now. i suspect the spy that happens to be young blonde russian woman is released on bail in london but they and from her workplace in parliament plus. got an exclusive inside into the war in afghanistan from a man who was there our military contributor gives getting her shot his wad implying of others. and the latest space were said to have for the have an slater today a russian american anatolian will board a so he's rocket and blast off to the international space station before their average journey peter oliver a math the intrepid explorers and discover a love story. when it comes to space travel clinical accuracy and pinpoint
