tell you gratian just exploded across to use us as news came out of some of the mother's death it was hard to miss president obama himself made the announcement on live television with the words justice has been done and hundreds of thousands hundreds rather of americans made their way to the white house to celebrate what is being hailed as a major victory this of course comes just months before the tenth anniversary of the attacks on the world trade center and the pentagon well d.n.a. testing reportedly confirmed that it was in fact just some of the model that was body was dispersed into the sea that's going to give range to conspiracy theorists who are going to claim that they want to see some kind of proof there's no pictures no video and now no one want to be so we will be expecting to hear all kinds of criticism about that nevertheless the u.s. operation according to officials killed osama bin laden and three other men including the woman and the son of the al qaeda chief up it also u.s.

embassies are now warning of anti american aggression across the globe and making note of a high risk to attacks on any place that americans gather after the death of martin was or to see come from off the course now from washington the death of osama bin landen reminds us that it was in fact the u.s. that numerous groups that turned into al qaeda and the taliban back in ninety eight . the roots of conflict so often go back to foreign policy decisions made years and years ago and you know while the president did say in his speech tonight's that the american people did not choose this fight this fight came to the united states in the u.s. soil referencing of course the nine eleven attacks we have to remember that the united states policy of currently arming them in the in afghanistan back to back in the eighty's had of course contributed so much to the current situation that we have on the ground today and that's it's one of those things that unfortunately in washington sort of gets really a lot. in the mix you know we don't really see the consequences of certain foreign

policy actions as they related to the present new developments on the ground. there was no pale. as a major milestone would you really hope that if it were there was racial of course russia is no stranger to terror attacks in fact it's home to the two most recent terror attacks wanted to be filming of those get rich through few years most recently the attack in moscow's international airport which targeted not just russia very other many internationals became victims of that terror attack marches me to the question of ways in the world says or it's how russian security forces there are constantly on the offensive against amidst. this greater occasion mountains also provide quite a convenient zone for many militants was links to al qaida to hide and develop their own outwards and really only join average from both national and

international science can redeem prove the situation now after the killing of bin laden ole eyes are searching for russia's most wanted man go out of he claimed responsibility for a number of high profile terror attacks in russia in the last several years and of the latest the most called the idea of an airport attack that happened this year and twin suicide moscow metro bombings that happened last year and now in the last several weeks i and some in turn suffice antti terror rays have been launched here in the north caucasus and dozens of militants with links to all kinds out why have they been wiped out of bed to still be a problem of truism that exists in this region in russia's or north caucasus as a lone ghostwrite far beyond any is a part of us and international terrorists not toward. the death of osama bin ladin in pakistan doesn't mean it. global terror is over in fact many agree it's too

early to celebrate these symbolic milestone parties prius readers in the region and explains why terrorist groups can quickly adjust to forces within their ranks. it's important to remember that when you think about this global war on terror it's not something that just if that's the united states or the last obviously around the world there are terrorist attacks that have happened in recent years since two thousand and one september eleventh it had nothing to do with al qaeda so while the death of osama bin laden can be seen as somewhat of a success saying that the war on terror is over is definitely a little bit oversimplified it's also important to remember the context here the history of this region if you look back to the nine hundred eighty s. that was actually the united states along with the help of the i.s.i. or pakistan secret service that were supposedly training freedom fighters during the soviet afghan war it was then those same freedom fighters that ended up turning into terrorists and carrying out a lot of these attacks that ended up really majorly affecting the lives of the

pakistani civilians that along with american drone attacks that have killed several pakistani civilians it's hard to say that pakistan also hasn't been affected by this war on terror they certainly have been a victim as well when it comes to india's reaction to osama bin laden stuff a lot of indians are still waiting for a pockets on the government's official reaction as to whether or not they knew that these american troops were going to come in and capture osama bin ladin there's a lot of talk a lot of speculation here a lot of eyebrows raised talking about the fact that osama bin laden was captured so close to the pakistani capital a lot of indians here are wondering how they could not have known that he was there . will be a sort of. terrorism is that right and spite the fact that was the last step is a huge if you will still in the fight against terror the actual risk of it it's very. hard to use and these are no way right for us in moscow thanks for that. well

for more on the rise of osama bin laden and what it could mean for the world we're joined by stephen lamanna radio host and author of running us live from chicago good to have you with us so let's get on the table first of all that you're an outspoken critic of american foreign policy that having been said already there's theories about the timing of bin laden's death and they've already started circulating what do you think and more about that the way i too would be a school sport where you know rain on. parade. announcements like this are always strategically terence but the important thing is . not that. it was no special forces that are assaulting where he was clean to be and they didn't kill him one sunday because he'd die in december and also lightly at the end of two thousand want to be very very were an important book osama bin laden. oh he presented evidence that they

have to work i think you could take him to a court room and they can clean scene case to convince the jury the bin ladden was totally natural causes you know two thousand and he was a very ill man and he was in a hospital again we're going to pick up on september tenth two thousand and one and reported it being what was your role in pakistan. wrote in july of two thousand while. he was in a do gooder or a hospital in the cia station chief visiting him in his hospital room while my goodness what he was doing was visiting a you will say yes it is because osama was a us creation and we engage the entity and i mean he was a real person or it was a real person who we invented in the 1980's he uses of c.r.a.

. yes no the nation put in as he gives the soviets if the ends fear any remain an asset it was nearly done right you mean out of the nolan was there sid when he was being you i think. he let's step back from this for a second because this is another one of those conspiracy theories that has surrounded his death there have been many of them the taliban is also claiming that bin laden is still alive let's step back from that and take another step it's been suggested that washington could use our son as a death as an excuse to save face and withdraw from the conflict in afghanistan what do you think about that for why don't they get the case i think. probably it was going on it is we have a terrible economy a whole millions of people suffering the numbers of wrote we every single day. america is lurching from one war into one now we're getting involved in syria after just getting involved in libya where we could get in war. the public is getting

a little bit tired of this when there's some free software which were x. in the search massive amounts of money one fighting news war is ignoring it would need so teaching tarini so also was approval rating being that we've got is there now slated to live in thirty four hour and get out about it today i call it. and bin laden's death what do you think what effect you think us will have on the upcoming elections and twenty fourth. if i surely would not even move you to go just the fades in two thousand and one right before it all george bush's approval rating was looking around fifty percent within twenty four hours he shot up to ninety percent so watch for obama to get. this all on to him from from may two thousand allude to november two thousand and twelve and you could hear

the call if you will read it so. yes so what do you think is going to be next for the u.s. operation in afghanistan but i think we'll leave it to stay what america goes you know what country he goes to syria to leave you could be for sweet gross and so on point but if you want to know what america's priority is the war would sue we silly germany was so into a payload we're still in south korea we're still in bases there with sarah so it's like war would suit we haven't will ever be or we will at least in theory you know and in the forever when we go out and we go to war so we're in afghanistan to say this is a we are super bases there we have super bases in iraq we're not leaving and this is the case in so many other countries well over a thousand u.s. bases we haven't spent all this money just to walk away from them and leave them where they had to stay all right stephen lam an author and radio host. we've got plenty more stories coming up in the program including this extortion

extremes. verbal abuse and threats now fashionable methods of data collection and parts of u.s. law hundreds are still gripped by economic desperation. in the case of profit over ethics post and population of a single industry russian town left without work after a large company buys and shuts down the local factory. turning first though to libya where the bodies of moammar gadhafi son and three grandchildren were reportedly killed in the nato air strike had been shown on state television nato says they intercepted military communications from the target site before launching the strike the incident caused outrage among pro could off the supporters with angry mobs storming forth in the cities in the capital tripoli british and italian officers suffered the most damage with the u.n. deciding to withdraw its staff from libya after its buildings were also attacked michel chossudovsky from the center for research on globalization in canada things

nato has ignored the rule of law. they brought balls and missiles and the evidence suggests that that apartment buildings in tripoli have been targeted hospitals have been targeted and we have a rather conspicuous and despicable acts of targeting the family of the head of state namely his son as well as his grandchildren and and we can make our own judgments that this kind of behavior is a derogation of international law nothing allows the united states. to go into a country and start killing the head of state or members of his family i would hope that russia and china will take the initiative of confronting the united states britain and france in the security council the united nations this is these are illegal acts they're in violation of the un charter and above all they

are undertaken by countries which are involved in in war crimes in other parts of the world in the afghanistan and pakistan. one of the coalition driving forces france has not only become a key player in libya but in other regional conflicts having said its troops to its former colony ivory coast paris is now showing strong interest in syria. stalin's cousin was shot by troops during syria's protests his parents there now live in hiding but he fears france will make things even worse by bombing his country on the pretext of stopping the violence i don't wish to have jets. are not an air force and syria but i. you know it's the same chain of events that brought to war with libya and now on folding its home first syrian leader bashar al assad was invited for talks in paris

as was colonel gadhafi but at the same time france reportedly was funding opposition groups in both states now nicolas sarkozy's government is slapping damascus with sentients a precursor to the invasion of libya humanitarian aide says one author will again be their excuse to go in the logic of their intervention in libya is that they shouldn't have been in syria also syria was once under french occupation but analysts say france behaves as if it's still in control france they've had their spies there for decades now and the religious movements have had their people there for decades so they're going to do whatever they can influence and change the regime in a way that they see fit intervention would leave france fighting in four walls that hasn't happened since it was a colonial power for its defense ministry hasn't been this busy in over fifty years

already fighting in afghanistan libya and the ivory coast is now turning its sights on another former colony syria but expose think the real target is serious key ally iran france's growing increasingly angry at tehran's nuclear ambitions and this part of international moves to stop that program to moscow's would become a. springboard for the sarkozy administration as it pushes east it wants in syria progress according to the libyan scenario we will probably see a similar development in iran unfortunately that is iran will repeat the syrian scenario russia watches western military interventions with rosina law it warns the fueling violence across the middle east and deliberately escalating the conflict is an invitation to a series of civil wars outside forces should not interfere give advice or take

sides in internal conflicts but russia's foreign minister adds there could be a sting in the tail he says unleashing chaos in the region helps the very extremist and worse wants to stop gaining power though you will sure r.t. paris. people in europe and the us have been repeatedly duped by the media into backing foreign interventions that's the opinion of joy. or of a controversial web site wiki leaks who spoke exclusively with r.t. here's a preview of what's to come in about fifteen minutes. our number one enemy of ignorance that i am and i believe that is the number one it in me is not understanding what is actually going on in the world now the question is he was promoting people in his bear. it really is my why opinion that the media in general is so bad it has taught him. how the world actually yes really every

war that has started in the past fifteen years has been a result of the media why you know you would have thought that if it basically populations like. populations have to be food until populations time willingly and. it's going to. if we have a quick media environment then good also means. three years on from the financial crash of two thousand and eight millions of americans are still mired in debt not able to get back on their feet but some stand to gain from the situation and spirit know it streams to squeeze as much money out of the downtrodden as possible from death threats to public humiliation or humor in important i reports on predatory debt collectors. a magical call coming to your home you pick up and the stranger demands your money and

threatens your life they have said that we know where you live we know your wife is you're not going to get away with this before you. embark ryan's case he was dealing with the mafia and i called them back to find out exactly who they were these were the voices of debt collectors harassing the fifty year old music producer over a small debt belonging to his son. you. have a great. party. with a record number of americans drowning in unpaid bills losing homes and searching for jobs have you seen the u.s. debt collection industry has reached record highs and one hundred forty four thousand complaints were filed with the federal government last year among them collectors resorting to racial slurs anti-semitic remarks and threats of rape

certainly any threats of violence or clearly illegal contact with third party and so somebody other than the consumer is illegal unless it is under very specific circumstances however a debt collector is routinely violate the third. disclosure rules and contact me and relatives as a means of putting pressure on them so mr attorney joseph morrow says most collection agents work on commission only getting paid when i debts been recovered a climate of economic desperation intensifying the use of the legal and aggressive tactics just to net are down keep a check there are going to my knowledge about four or five cases of suicide coming from the collection harassment that's also been heart attacks and strokes ironically i like crime is always extended to the biggest of them all the us government with exceptional debt how fourteen point three trillion dollars america he just spending money printing more cash and relying on creditors like china to

own up one point one trillion dollars in u.s. treasury bonds don't make it perfectly clear that congress will raise the debt ceiling and washington gets a safety net wall street gets out bailout and the working american facing financial hardship gets harassed is it unfair yes it is the economic environment disasters right now yes it is but there's been traditional ways to work your way out of these situations and those mechanisms are working anymore work for. a sound unlikely to be heard on wall street where the rich and powerful have lost billions in past years while poor americans on main street continue dealing with all the consequences are enough r t b or. no it's been more on the stories we're covering on our website our team along with the latest news and videos and you can gains your thoughts on live right now. the actress wife of a man governing

a remote russian region gains notoriety for her dramatic bank balance rather than her on stage antics. and if you've ever wanted to see politicians with the gloves really off and i was her chance again about our. nuclear safety has come under fresh scrutiny following the shocking events a chimpanzee nuclear plant recently anniversary of the disaster is only further highlighted the fears are now has been trying to find out the lessons that are being learned as new reactors in russia. this is the reactor which is of course not part of the power station here. he thought the water would be a process of fission and then this water goes on there and the turbines which

create the electricity normally if there is an accident if anything goes wrong this reactor shuts down the some special control rods they stop the process of fission in japan when the initial earthquake took place there was a successful shutdown after the war the secular nation system was damaged but even after you shut the rods down even after you stop this president bush doesn't stop straight away there is a remaining process which goes on for several days. in japan as a special backup system of diesel operated backup systems which are supposed to start the rods from overheating with this leftover fission which is happening but of course this is the was damaged as well. afterwards and this is what has led to the. rods causing a build up of a buildup of pressure and eventually the explosions which have state shaken over the past few days this is the control room obviously the brains of the operation

now the project for the station was initially approved in the early eighty's all of this equipment was different it was analog before now it's digital. i think to compare this to the sort of technologies that we used in chernobyl is totally inappropriate. this system is also makes it in these computers can do millions of calculations every second so a repeat of that is impossible hold the same we can only hope that accidents such a three mile island turn lobel on this effort that she will not be repeated anytime in the near future. all to see them even step out station. take a look now at some other stories making headlines across the globe the death toll from extreme weather that ravaged the u.s. southeast has reached three hundred forty with thousands of people injured missing or left homeless recent conditions made this spring's wave of tornadoes and floods the most deadly and devastating since the thirty's officials say that the risk of new storms remains and they will be nowhere near the magnitude of the scene last

week. germany the traditionally peaceful may day rallies turned violent as police to use force against protesters water cannons were used to disperse angry crowds and homburg who threw stones and models at shops and banks across the country made a demonstrations attracted more than four hundred thousand people and many fair wages and better working conditions. closure of a major serial factory in a rural russia has left its workers the majority of the town's local population on the breadline production came to a halt when the company's was swallowed up by the giant global cereal giant kellogg's. reports. formerly breakfast is considered the most important meal of the day. in kellogg's cereal has made its name as a wholesome family prance built on strong ethical values. the. vote for one small city in russia that perception of kellogg's is difficult to stomach.

for generations of families that work here grandmothers mardis fathers sons daughters we've all been left feeling devastated. a few years ago kellogg's to caver one of russia's leading cereal brands including this production factory in go to for vets in the vladimir region as a global giant of industry it should've been an exciting time for the workers and the reversal but on march the fourteenth we came to work and were told that the company would be liquidated this year it would have been the company's seventy fifth anniversary despite a generous redundancy package job single for vets are scarce and for generations of families the factory has been the economic heart of the city. it was more than just a job the plant was everything for the people it was our way of life now with the plant closed and showing no signs of reopening people here is struggling to find

even low paid jobs crowds of people are being sent to the same places and those jobs can then blackmail us they'll say there are five hundred people wanting this job. so people are forced to take with the can now there simply isn't enough work. in response to the sudden closure colloq said the decision was not related to the fullness of the work is all the parts of management and admitted that the work is contribution have been valuable for the business but that's a little can't fit the work is now the regional administration is looking for another investor through the factory the tatiana tells us a little seems to be happening in the ethics profits plateau this time it seems profits are one out. of but the real bottom line is that with the factory closed thing it's the people who are left paying the price. back in
