once described posada as a reliable asset to the u.s. government a man of good character pro-u.s. who would make an excellent official in a post castro government their evaluation of him could not have been more mistaken half a century after posada career less began doing the cia's dirty work in latin america his bloody legacy lives on for the countless victims and as the u.s. government continues to fight the so-called war on terrorism extraditing kidnapping and assassinating suspects in other countries it continues to harbor one of the hemisphere's most notorious terrorists are t. washington d.c. but around one hundred activists gathered for a symbolic people's tribunals at the monday's trial to hear terrorism charges against posada and his accomplices. campaign brian becker was also that he believes the wanted man is being protected by american interests. the american government

has harbored terrorism they finance terrorism luis posada carriles is there a terrorist who's been protected particularly by the bush family he was imprisoned in venezuela but escaped his imprisonment now venezuela is demanding he be extradited and yet the united states government won't extradite him to ben israel because they say they fear that the venezuelan government will torture luis posada carriles said it's nonsense is just shows the absolute hostility towards of men as well and government towards the cuban revolution and of course showing the world that the united states is above the law above international law there is no good reason moral reason political reason or legal reason not to extradite luis posada carriles to venezuela where he escaped from prison for blowing up a civilian airliner that had cuban athletes on it. the u.s. refuses to extradite a sort of as well you know i mean he would face torture there ought to be looks at america's own interrogation tactics in guantanamo bay to this i would talk to him

writes bush who reviews cases at camp delta and international of secret prisons. these methods of interrogation the enhanced interrogation techniques as they're so referred are not are not the did not happen to the minority they happen to the majority so what happens is you get instructors who are interrogators and and guards who are trained in these techniques that are actually used in military training. to help army men and women resist interrogation being used on these men in guantanamo bay so the majority of our clients have have had at least one of these techniques used on them. refrigerator vessel or stuck in frozen waters off russia's far east is now being

towed by. two icebreakers they were up against harsh weather conditions another supply ship with more than three hundred crew on board is the last to be freed trapped almost a fortnight from other vessels have been rescued over the last week and let's get the details now from sarah crew saw the stricken ships to more navigable waters now . we know that the two ice breakers are about three that journey towing this refrigerated vessel to the most they've got about another thirty kilometers to go then of kools. come back and try and retrieve that supply vessel now we know that when they get their refrigerator vessel to the a pool so they've got other smaller icebreaker. waiting to take that that they can so not return journey will they'll need to be to get supply fit for a. three hundred crew aboard. one of the original three ships who

did the rescue on december thirtieth so the crew aboard that ship has now been stuck in the ice but. obviously every i'm very eager to get the situation we need to the emergency services have now dispatched a helicopter that picked up a hydrologist off one of the icebreaker. and he'll know that may be up with that helicopter looking at the ice they hate being able to analyze. it to help these two icebreakers mate to bring back to the supply ship and to getting it very. quanta while for the rescue vessels to plow through the thick ice do you know how long the return journey will actually take. this is that it's very hard to pinpoint. how long it will be until the rescue mission is completed that has been a very drawn out process they come up against these adverse weather conditions the ice break is really how they work. it's incredibly late it's about not minus

nineteen at the may even go full swinson this incredibly because they've been having to deal with now it's taken since yesterday to get the refrigerator vessel tell us about the way to the water in the thinner ice as they possibly another day maybe the end of today the actually get that free but then of course they've got to make that rich journey to get to the supply vessel and that supply vessel is going to be the most difficult to retrieve it's an incredibly large ship and actually costing around fifty thousand dollars a day every day but it's not working we stand a lot of questions being all about what these vessels were doing in the area the current day where they got stuck his name for being a very dangerous very narea very clear water areas the ice. always very thick now we know that the adverse weather conditions that this time of year has made even was that at the moment is the area fishing be picking up the tab for this rescue

operation of course is now it is thirteen they say causing a huge amount of money and we know that once the operation is over looking for the companies those to see whether they've actually taken it but in sending the ship into this area with the full rules out of schools the main focus right now is really on getting their refrigerator to not take the water getting the supplies. here so do keep us updated on sarah for reporting thank you. see advice to blow snow a few minutes to eastern siberia. getting around one of the coldest regions of the planet is not a return it's going to show in time listening to your couture and coming up we'll show you how it's done. twenty two year old man charged with attempting to assassinate a u.s. congresswoman two brothers could face life in prison or the death penalty if convicted the court ordered. without bail is accused of barking in

a shooting rampage outside a supermarket in the state of arizona democrat gabrielle giffords was shot in the head remains in critical condition. this week six. p.r. consultant this is the. most politicians to distance themselves from the public. there's going to be so much more scrutiny for people going to public events the average congressman for years has received death threats these are usually just from kooks and not taken very seriously well now they take on a whole new light and i predict many members of congress are going to be much more skeptical about public speaking events they're going to want the trappings of a presidential speaking event presidents have these elaborate security mechanisms they have security guards secret service they have metal detectors to detect guns so you know unfortunately it's going to really shut down

a lot of the communication voters have with their elected officials because elected officials in america are now running scared americans have passionate love affair and it's basically politically impossible for any politician to try to propose limiting handguns and just recently rules were rewritten to let people bring guns into schools in arizona so that is an extraordinarily difficult political challenge because the gun lobby basically controls congress in america and the legislatures as well so it is going to be tough what i do predict is you're going to see some change in the rhetoric of american politicians. and the war activists david swanson names american mass media promoting violence as the answer to solving society's problems. but we do condition people to engage in this kind of violence in our wars and occupations and then we don't on condition them to live again back home but

it's it's not just veterans it's americans from all backgrounds we don't we don't have mental health services we don't treat drug abuse as something to be cured we don't provide health care we don't provide job security we don't provide the things people need in terms of education in terms of nonviolent resolution of conflict because largely because we're driving all of the money into those who have too much of it already and the war machine and through the war machine we're educating people through our criminal justice system and the death penalty we're educating people through everything that our government does to handle problems and everything that hollywood movies tell us solve problems we're teaching people that violence is the answer and of course it isn't because we make guns so readily available the violence is is more deadly it's an incredibly destructive state that is part of the whole mentality that drives the wars that our criminal justice system and our intertainment and everything about our culture is just saturated

with violence. the u.s. army's training them to secure afghanistan's most dangerous areas for a few dollars a month washington to keep the far right and up against the. more down there the loyalty is not so easily bored. as the southern gateway to kabul and home to a long stretch of afghanistan's national highway wardak has been the focal point of the taliban's comeback in recent years in early two thousand and nine overstretched afghan forces were struggling to hold back some military planners decided to raise a local militia to help cover the most dangerous gaps sides a kia quit a better paying job to join because he was tired of the fighting around his village in the valley nicknamed by u.s. troops the valley of death for its deadly ambushes and firefights mike. the situation was bad here and i needed to do something for my family before it gets worse. there are hundreds of militiamen like him spread across wardak province now

the afghan government and u.s. military are about to launch dozens of new militias in hotspots around the country the minute this outpost would train for three weeks by american special forces units if you kalashnikov rifles and are paid about two hundred dollars a month to keep watch over their own community u.s. commanders insist that's why they've had an impact they are approved by the village elders and they work within the district there from which gives them not only do they understand the dynamics and the people that they're working with their understand the community and and the threat in the area two years ago it was a taliban stronghold where u.s. forces and armored vehicles came under fierce attack nearly every time they tried to drive through it today attacks are rare in the afghan local militia travel freely in pickup trucks from the beginning however critics have argued that arming militias in place of government forces could create vigilante groups which are impossible to control militia forces will be loyal to the government a problem with the president has i. will certainly be loyal to those who would be

able to replace united states and i now think that the former head of the program in wardak a shady ex taliban commander named mohammed has already been replaced some u.s. officials privately suspected he was playing both sides and of the twelve hundred men that began the program nearly four. hundred of quit taking their weapons with them it's believed the dozens of join the insurgency if the militia continues to be under resourced order governor for die worries it could backfire to the taliban's advantage these forces if he had not support it and get not addicted it is sourced it could be used against the government because he will join those groups who can support them those who are in afghanistan government backed militias stand accused of murder theft and rape in northern province local serbia worse than the taleban support for the war effort flagging the u.s. military is looking for a quick fix of forces can leave but hasty decisions risk making

a bad situation worse it is more militias are raised in the year ahead it appears there will be more risks to manage jason in the valley for r.t. . that's out there now and some of today's other well things. the raging torrent sweeping through northeastern australia have left at least eight people dead and over seventy thousand missing the city or to whom west of the queensland state capital burns been the latest terror to be hit by flash floods entire towns have been flooded with an estimated two hundred thousand people affected by the region's west africa any more than four thousand people have been evacuated from their. ivory coast's internationally recognized president says he's willing to that moment but bush supporters into his cabinet as long as the incumbent the steps down the president elect promises to be open about setting up a unity government both men claim victory in november is to speak election which

extreme it and dogs this is what they're fighting the federal reserve bank's balance sheet in washington the reason why they're afraid to do an audit at the request of ron paul is because they know that they've got basically dead beatles eye of newt some old chicken bones some dead cat excrement that's about all they've got at the federal reserve because the us is technically. grow up installed and so these witches are fighting fire with fire yeah other. dog poop. life is tough in remote eastern siberia hardly surprising for a place because all could be the coldest inhabited region on earth so tell us now reports from it means the locals need to turn the landscape's frozen fictions to their advantage. call for extreme modes of. one. of the climate we resorted to print are

a form of. america i'm sorry. i'm one of these dogs can live in an extremely harsh environment you can easily stand winter temperatures from minus fifty to minus sixty degrees celsius with strong winds and very hot summer temperatures from plus thirty two plus two to degrees they are one adapted to the local climate perhaps. because of their versatility traveling long ago became part of the a cuttin tradition. that back if you like the dogs out all our you put in huskies the good in husky is one of the oldest aboriginal breeds that exist on this planet these dogs have been used for i don't know how many thousand diaz's sledge and hunting animals there endemic to cali mines the polar area. travelling by dog sled is necessary for those living their lives here but there are many others who come from all over the world for this experience. it's just you and the dogs in the

fish onto the plate here even the milk is sold in frozen blocks and if you're looking for a quick afternoon snack what about all the you want this is called meat the culture of the cookie and green was slow to them in autumn and freeze the meat we eat it frozen because frozen meat preserves more vitamins than when you boil it. for convenience we mince the meat in a meat grinder then it's easier to pick up the hound dog or and put it in your mouth. the temperatures in this part of the world are sometimes as low as minus sixty two have shaved every aspect of people's existence from their parents how they get around to the very food they eat life here is on ice have been. shown thomas r.t. . stories are ready to watch at any time at r.t. dot com as a taste of what else is there a. good beat and actions most infamous for wants to stamp millions of people and i

a zation last summer's severe drought exposed major shortcomings in the country's agriculture sector michael plains. thirty five degrees in the shade and no rain the weather played a hot trick on russian farmers this summer with a severe drought devastating more than thirty percent of the grain harvest but it was not just mother nature's fault. russia's wheat crop yield is the third that if you were to improve we need access to modern seed i mean a seed industry has been lost and foreigners won't sell their technology to us because they're afraid they will be paid routines for the use of the technology we also lack modern farming vehicles it's hard to improve technology quickly the government has pumped extra cash into the sector which it hopes will plant twenty percent more crops this spring but produces doubt they'll be able to do this on the handouts they've been given and what officials to come up with further stimulus measures pretty wore them

a good look at it farmers could be allowed to perspire own interest payments until their loans expire otherwise some of them may go bankrupt and won't pay interest anyway if we are increasing planting you'll need more equipment for harvesting but many farmers don't have money to pay the initial fee for the leasing right now so we also need to deal with this. officials hope the country's grain requirements in twenty eleven will be covered by domestic production but they're preparing for the worst good of staying in balance i think russia will finally import grain in some quantities we estimate the country's important needs at around four million tonnes or more russian accounted for up to fifteen percent of the global grain market before the drought analysts say there is a considerable potential for growth if the sector can adopt better practices these would also limit the worst effects of the weather when mother nature turns nasty like a quick check of business r.t. . that's
