deemed unsuitable for living and its inhabitants were a house in fact if you measure the radiation around here it's still several times higher than normal but just walk down the road and draw still people living all around their area. at first glance rish cough looks like an ordinary village and most here live off what they grow in their gardens and the livestock they keep. the government says that meat from their levels far from the local feed from can permanently land isn't safe to eat. of course we're scared of the radiation and we simply can't afford to go anywhere else according to the government anyone who is living in the exclusion zone isn't i don't put equivalent housing outside it but actually getting it as a problem. mikael miller chair of who personally for the fire to ennoble is the mayor of the nearby town of nor was it. he admits that

a current system isn't working. there is a commission that values the housing of those people who want to leave and gives the money for it but the money's too small those people wouldn't be able to afford a house in most places around russia so many people choose to stay here. their cancer rate in the area has gone up by seven times since chernobyl and the fact of the contamination may not have peaked yet. with in the first few years after chernobyl at least the government programs to clean up local food supplies but now they're gradually coming to an end we're being forgotten about. the holding his clinic doctor visits his relative at home eighty six year old husband died of cancer from happening contaminated materials she says she plans to live out the rest of her life here on earth well i

in libya nato airstrikes forced colonel gadhafi troops to pull out of the rebel held city of misrata but almost two months standoff meanwhile allied aircraft carried out fresh air strikes on the capital tripoli overnight with a government spokesman saying at least three people were killed in a raid so you can't chandon who has just returned from a monitoring mission in libya and leaves there's no justification for nato his actions. the basis for nine hundred seventy three the u.n. resolution was that the claim was that gadhafi had bombed from that three particular districts in tripoli. presume and we visited these places there was no indication whatsoever of any aerial bombardments so it go it's just goes to show that if there's a claim this has to be actually cooperated properly and that hasn't been done and what we've what we've had is a situation where nato has gone to war against some sort of a nation on the base off an allegation which in terms of our findings was just

baseless the point is that there has been no international investigative teams so far to investigate the nato bombings as well. the u.s. is sending armed drones to target dolphins forces stoner the editor of the website of waging nonviolence dot org says the move because. plenty claim that this is a step forward is really hard to hard with the facts out. there as to miss will vary widely and shows a civilian casualties do you think drone strikes but the brookings institution pretty centrist democratic organization intake and you see a couple years ago put out a report that showed it for every militants killed. another ten civilians were killed with each attack so i don't see any reason why that ratio would change in libya so introducing grown into the war in libya is rightly only it

and. more civilian casualties and more suffering. well asia times correspondent told r.t. but washington's initiative to send its drones is just another step along the path towards a u.s. led ground operation. it was a stalemate we well you would be a stalemate so maybe it didn't work the term a hoax in the beginning almost two hundred of them didn't work so well you do your code address this disturbance warfare and the pentagon is writing once again saying there will be no collateral damage we just have to look at the record of the tribal way to see this is not true coming back to the sooner the peppers and why we have been target this is not a us war the witness started by africa the african command that was its first african war between our hearts were launched by general carter ham which is the commander of africa then the us which to me to which is basically the pentagon of

a harsh climate doesn't stop people from digging for treasure. a court has ruled that the infamous qur'an burning pastor terry jones cannot hold an unseen islamic rally in a city described as america's muslim capital just as the court decision ruling that the proposed remedy could incite violence outraged local community held its own protest auntie's christian for want to see her freedom of speech has been brought into doubt there. they came to show that the planned protest was not causing a rift in their community even formed a human chain in a show of solidarity christians jews and muslims were not afraid. but we work together as a team as if as one family they came to send pastor terry jones a message whatever has him tormented i'm going to pray and as god to deliver him out missis to give me is i am praying for you he needs help more than seven hundred
