normally morning we'll meet the children come down and get on in the future for the full story we've gotten from. the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers. who are running down the week's top stories here on t.v. and america's most wanted terrorist is killed by u.s. troops bringing cheering crowds on to the streets but leaving a some puzzled by inconsistent seems in the u.s. a version of events also a refusal to show pictures or bin laden's body fueling conspiracy theories. nato members look at siphoning the support for the libyan rebels with washington planning to release khadafi frozen assets but russia warns the alliance is involvement it's getting dangerously close to

a ground invasion. and troops and tanks and arrests in syria with no signs of an end to the fighting russians and the e.u. deploys sanctions to force the regime to end its violent crackdown on citizens some eight hundred people have reportedly been killed since the uprising began almost two months ago. and moscow for personal rolled out the big guns for the annual grand a victory day parade parties looking at the highlights from the rehearsals talking to survivors and exploring how today's younger generations feel about the fight for freedom. up next here on r.t. it's a look at whether the world has learned the tragic rationals of the atomic bombing of japan during the second world war this is art. material the capital washington the american military base the by the slums bikini and any attack to ground zero wrong not contaminated and is there in. the

marshall islands just out of four hours southwest of honolulu this is nowhere from north america's policy but a paradise if one intends to test atomic bombs. all . right it was telling that the united states government now wants to turn left right this stuff that's the worst ever stopping short program i want to limit it i want to we get a pinata. ready group with. everything being in god's hands must be good.

over the twelve years of testing thirty three of the sixty seven devices that were tested here were bigger than the largest one ever tested in nevada eighteen of them were what are called megaton level devices in other words a thousand filatov including a gravel test in one nine hundred fifty four fifteen megaton chest thousand times more powerful and explosive yield then make a bomb. in letting your mind your humor but there are no one. in makes me angry then nobody knows what is your oh my own what it is i need. this. much first nine hundred fifty four the islanders are amazed to see the sun rising in the west but a star is a thermo nuclear bomb bravo irradiates the sky by the wind blows towards the out of

the brown glass. every night my mind. yes i think something with a gun. was a very. anybody was sleeping. right nights company due and my. one got a light sleep call him down we've seen the pain goes down from the sky now around and around. later sent our latest son. and then when there is strong and blue eyes everywhere and the ground was moving. and we were so scared. we would be back there.

by the body so we hide for several years then when we invent a reason we don't our white plains cover of affirming well we need the power because nobody has not. turned out to be a lot more powerful than they expected. they didn't bother to move the bronco up people because they said oh well it was basically too complicated logistics they had to take by this type of mission from the department of the cure here and frankly it was expensive. it was just but accident that we even found out that the grant let people had been powdered. the reason they found out was that with a little japanese fishing trawler. that was also out there and they got dusted with

radioactivity that drew the most headlines never heard of it was called the lucky trick on. the american government rushed jock herself but there. is the head out there said oh well that will be ok in a much well it's close the radio operator had tried but the people in the wrong collapsed they had a slow motion kind of effect they also had a lot together for maybe their last. if they kill you and burn yes i'm on she says you here with all the info you. could you know we're about. to. report and we were very. cool we're doing this until. i'm. supposed to. see some of the pretty. clear. canadians it is so normal. history

didn't hardly. reasons for. the american media became passionate about the overwhelming power of bravo and complacent about the victims of the cold war. this is not the case for the scientific. was they got the news they sent a team of doctors to examine the wrong people and they did this continuously and are still doing it because they are such a living example of what it was like to experience the mate with the actual explosion so the wrong that people are much more of an example for the rest of the world than the actual balmy in her and nagasaki. obviously the dimension of what happened in her shemale what happened in the marshall islands is

very different it was tronics water for many years that's one explosion just a megatonnage was for our sins of times what happened and she was so that's one aspect of our people say well you can't really compare that and because. there's just a difference in the whole sequence of events and in moderation after the broadcast was a big watershed in the way. many scientists became concerned and actually i think a lot of the movement to stop nuclear weapons testing wasn't about the future of the war it was actually an environmental and health concern that this thing is affecting us and our children every day. they started to give birth to monster like he. and so many miscarriages and. great like fetuses and.

my mom and seventies care and one time vienna baby that looked like a great and that made me sad that i have a basis or is an alien. is not even a human being. in december two thousand and five the marshallese presented the american government with pictures of deformed babies born with gray hair and without ears a baby survived for only a few weeks the abnormal births that you see photographs of of recent children i don't know that those can be attributed to any exposure for no one is investigating to find out are they in general radiogenic or are they caused by something else that's a question that may well remain unanswered. i am part of a program that if you are made of energy is involved in an arm and energy is part

of the u.s. government and so the medical program provides ongoing monitoring for radiation related illness for the people running the lab and you do it if you have one question this is about are directed at me yes with effects. it is about him right into me i mean is it classified and if i know i think you have heard about the baby like that even that i'm not sure if you're familiar with a bear seven report in this report it did see it very clearly that there's genetic mutations that are changed biologically by relation and they've shown it plants mice in bacteria so if you follow that through then there probably is genetic instead of transmitted by you know enough radiation a much radiation that takes it couldn't comment in there but in your mind you know being a woman would that affect your children i can see from their seventy four i don't

know. it's never been showed to see yes but it's also been never shoulda seen no. mainly by say out of the womb and on wrong we as adults and many a woman believed were those silly face to leeward funny guy you know why is nine why is that all right i never i never even. close to you know that they say because of the radiation readings when the survivors are told that their children. have no genetical effects of radiation has no genetic backs on the second and third and fourth and so on generations. in their playing words are the survivors we don't trust we know. that there are genes that. i don't have any children right

about the only difference. the boys. to me she's my mother and me she might have me in my blood on the list she's there a reason i turn out like this. i want to be something i want to do something for my people because i know she is and our hard life evelyn is home sick so when she can she visits her mother who lives in the jura she has given up hope of ever living i'm wrong that we had was fair test spread really were acutely throughout the world mainly in the northern hemisphere not only near the test sites but all over the world and we are still living with the long lived radioactive legacy of that fall out we still have strength from ninety in the dirt we have cesium one

thirty seven we have been told me him and in the air we have carbon fourteen and it gets into the food and every time we get a little bit of the legacy of atmospheric testing. the national cancer institute indicates the testing of nuclear weapons by both the united states as well as the soviet union and the other countries are tested nuclear weapons as by the year two thousand resulted in approximately four hundred thousand people who either. have died will dog prematurely of cancer. no space or time can stop the bonds rippling effects it's a boomerang drifting that winds of the way. down to reste disappear hundreds of thousands of victims joined the japanese dead already in mass graves the nuclear arsenal claims more corpses than previously thought and it's not over. at the

disaster for us here in the marsh. there is no place for us to write from very it's because our lebanese family. now there's many many cases of cancer. for the women is more and more women rice awareness plays. it's true that women generally have a higher cancer risk average going to leave gertrud women are a lot more vulnerable than any other part of the population so especially in regard to pirate cancer. from remember the number right at about one hundred times the risk of adult males from the same relation to. its fire or remove the nine hundred eighty one clip.

i remember one time she went quiet for jews you will want to go press. but she was telling the really good question. and then she came back and i had a shot at her i graduated a man of which you already went on. gto minute he had a moment in whatever vessel he had to an operation and in going to. emerge early in mid ninety's when the us started to declassify a lot of the information about the testing program that had been classified as secret top secret. better understanding of the effects of radiation was developed. secrecy and classified documents belong to the tradition of the world's armies especially when their actions could prompt lawsuits over millions of dollars in compensation from their governments ok sure. yes.

i think. it's ok these are are not all bad because the by thirty mins they were quite rightly named in the floor if i remember correctly but we just got them. you know ninety two ninety nine it will bend like simple boxes on time it was this project call four point one the united states wanted to learn or make a study on radiation effects on human beings and so that all of these people were chosen. to be used as guinea pigs the rationale in part was that and this is quoting from the brookhaven report of one nine hundred fifty eight greater knowledge of such effects on human beings is is barely needed such as the habitation of these people on the island will afford

most valuable ecological radiation that on human beings. various radioisotopes present can be traced from the soil through the food chain and into the human beings where the tissue an organ distribution biological half lives and excretion rates can be studied they have to bring in some he will from. to experiment started to get their picture in a route their ideals and use them as a unit but that's when we progress and these two. for one purpose x. . we know that chronic low dose exposure will increase to some extent the incidence of leukemia and cancer of the skin but we are in a region that we really know very little about in regard to human effects one of things about poor health care is the people that are receiving their health care at the person i trust in what they're trying to do and prayer trust involves

historical context of it and so i think there were definite trust the shins. the department of energy stacks more than three million cubic feet of studies on radiation the scientists were so fascinated by this research that from one nine hundred forty seven until the seventies they conducted experiments on the american population itself. people were injured it was petroleum though some of the leading the health institutions in the united states the stated purpose of many of these experiments were to devise ways to protect people from radiation exposure we haven't seen that in as far as i can i can recall in a really useful information or they came out of the as pregnant women were given really right the royal to see the metabolism read and write about body and go children part of it there was a school for supposedly retarded children. radioactive cereal with vegetables

children the president of the health physics society was asked would you prove it's really rank and serial to your own children and he said of course not and so this is the problem of of place it's like we're alone there's proud of immediate also appeared to be. intimidated a world away contamination. so that the castle probable shark remember everyone fires because the kidney and on grounds of only one are. slowly in the far. south the bomb because is. there always said. everybody makes mistakes you know every once in this thread something you planted for

a long long. while but misty it was my. own town i. am. was there. and maybe even in that. are most like it or monster. in the name really maybe in their reality like. the people of brown that have been engaged in talks with the united states and they still hope that justice will prevail but the superpower frightens. i don't believe in a confrontational policy and being an anti-american. i think that would be counterproductive to our issues than

a relationship with united states i believe that america should provide all but i don't care to the marshallese. because they are responsible for the testing they can time and in our minds. so far we have negotiated with them it didn't work out it's not helping much like you know as the wrong a piece chase after a health program and the decontamination of their island huge expenditures are made right under their noses yes the islands are still at the heart of american military research with projects at its epicenter. raj was an able base and it supported the testing for in the eighty's when the star wars program came into effect quadroons importance was raised again it became what has been referred to as the catcher's mitt where rockets fired from vandenberg air force base in california would land in

the lagoon or near postulant. while hanging on to the dream of building an anti-missile shield the americans bombed parts unknown for more than twenty years but this sort of nuclear umbrella which cost the american taxpayers about ten billion dollars every year it's also very controversial because the united states doesn't hide its intention to install interceptors in space as you know claiming government under called work was committed secretly silently becoming part of the american missile defense plans and many of us said he waited this really isn't about missile defense this is really about the first beginnings of the weaponization of space once we got here from a ship in the public still sixty five percent favored it was sixty five percent against we forced him to address the americans who weakening is no thank you very much we were going to be part of it you are serious you walk in front of you and.

stand your space treat. the transition speech the lateral current discussions international about what all the planning in space is very that we have one army of engineers are improving our cellular phones now communications in the world yet another arm of engineers are planning how are we to destroy what's going on up there. they tell us that it's a big boy it's nothing it's like an empty shell like to believe that is that happens but. how can we trust. that. we have to tell our story because we are a product of nuclear weapons we want to tell the world that these are the consequences

. i said i almost. i said this is my old song. it was saying that tell the story over and over again to there were. i said to myself. what is my story is it wouldn't while or is there for everybody the relation to what if there is no money for the people are wrong not for l program then what i said share my body to the work you rightly. cool experience. but do something for the people are not my shack. although we're going to ask that and least they leave something in return we do business for free. i have

a kind of family but i don't. see perry white and by the way can. you imagine about syria in the cold. war. in one thousand nine hundred six the testimony of lesion at night before the international court of justice sealed the fate of nuclear weapons on july eighth a panel of judges declared the threat or use of nuclear weapons in general is contrary to the norms of international law included in the law of war. or the judges of the court were unanimous in their opinion that the nuclear weapon should be exterminated from the eyes of those of the wood and there is that that was so many principles of international law which the nuclear weapon by

a good will to america rarely go back and say i don't like about the modern state because there are more people like us in the room and it's. these paintings for everyone only when a country place i guess. it is my friend. who else is gonna fight for our. grassroots want to fight for the survivors own kids. there was neither anger nor hatred in the survivors voices just pain the nuclear powers are lucky these voices are too weak to prevent these arsenals from re-emerging in military strategies the international court of justice is a moral authority and its opinion has had no effect on countries that depend on the atom bomb for their power so between the time dated images of the victims and

disregard for the future we are counting on the survivors descendants to intervene . but beyond much here evelyn who can say who is not living with the legacy of hiroshima or wrong clap. the. i am. the. the fish.

fish .
