tsunami are story really trying to keep their a lives together victims still queue for basic necessities nearly four months after the disaster struck while the threat from the fukushima nuclear plant keeps the beleaguered country on alert as sean thomas reports the toll on those left sifting through what remains of their communities is immense. as the waves crash against a damaged to sea wall on the japanese coast volunteers work tirelessly to clean up the debris and bring some sense of normalcy back to the area. i want to tell people we need more help more supplies and things are still bad here beyond the physical destruction and there is a distressing psychological factor as well the city of the walkie is right on the edge of the twenty kilometer exclusion zone for radiation contamination in fact in a recent study by japan's nuclear safety commission forty five percent of one thousand children tested in any walk and neighboring cities have tested positive

for thyroid radiation exposure a figure that has parents appalled that you forgot that we have the government has resets the great ear if a safety and are not concerned with the consequences their reaction is only to help the governments they face but they don't actually take care of the damage and the people here first there was the earthquake then the devastating a wave which rushed in and destroyed this part of the coastal city of it walking also there are the nuclear radiation waves that are coming into this area as well the volunteers that are coming in to rebuild this city certainly have their work cut out for them but just like the city itself the people who live here the community they need to have their spirits rebuilt as well. that. guy again in an effort to keep the community emotionally strong organizers have brought this acting troupe in from tokyo they saved their goal is to provide something beyond a simple entertainment. through that shared community experience there is
12:05 am
a sense of hope that the city of milwaukee can indeed recover the convenience store because they closed. the city hall but it's a good suit getting clients coming back. and with an understanding that there is still much more work that needs to be done the people here are working to keep their community together. i just want them to stay where they want and they can be helpful that than the accepting that. rebuilding the city one step at a time any want the city japan sean thomas. when it comes to gauging the health effects of the. over atomic energy often makes it tough for people to separate thier from fact their active general of the world nuclear association tells us later that the media often doesn't help with its comparisons to tragedies like. we've just seen twenty four thousand japanese citizens killed
12:06 am
by an earthquake and a tsunami. we've seen the media have a frenzy in covering the accident at fukushima which has not made it had not been responsible for a single radiation fatality i think it was a tragedy in terms of the world's understanding of the essential safety of nuclear power i also think however that it might also be educational in the long term because people have begun to focus on and as they begin to begin to focus even more clearly on the ultimate parts of course of the fukushima they will learn that there was relatively little damage done. demarcus breaking ranks with its neighbors and europe's open borders restating controls on its boundaries with germany and sweden one danish m.p. who has been pushing for stricter immigration laws says it's the european union's biggest. the idea of open borders europe has
12:07 am
shown to be a utopia and we have had the choice of the european idea or reality as we live in the real world we can see what comes across our borders and not least at least what this leading denmark was stolen goods have increased we cannot just watch that happen the same thing we see with europe the introduction of europe even in countries that but weren't meant to have it every year and couldn't do the way we see the e.u. idea. i can see that happening all over the place not only in bismarck we might just be the first one to take steps to avoid further problems for our country the e.u. as an idea as an ideology if you like is disintegrating. so i had a sour here in our team some joined up thinking any string europe while many will drive for the us there is sentiment and one country to become part of
12:08 am
a stronger neighbor but how many people really want that find out in our report also. you know you get a mandate to disarm and then they're telling you actually wall don't disarm and then babble breaks out and you're the one pleasant responsible we'll look at the ruling by dutch courts that the netherlands is to blame for the deaths of three moslems going to terminate a massacre in one thousand nine hundred five. former i.m.f. chief dominique strauss kahn hopes of a comeback are now all but dashed now that a french writer has officially filed a complaint for attempted rape his lawyers vowed to suit tristan banon for slander me a whale meanwhile of the current assault charges against him in new york continue to add away he's alleged victim is suing a newspaper which called her a prosecute after legal investigators began questioning her credibility french history professor robert. he says that even if strauss kahn is completely cleared
12:09 am
his political career is over so. i don't think it's political sesa nation i think it really is a case of political suicide i really think that dominique strauss kahn is at the margins of this case it's significant that just don't bet on smother who is a fairly important figure in the socialist party and who urged her daughter back in two thousand and three not to say anything about the attack has now come out of the closet and insists that stross khan and he is sexual habits have been long known among socialists a long amended but nobody said anything about them so he may emerge a free man but whether his freedom is going to lead to the it leaves a is a completely different story and a number of women in fact are appalled that the elephants which is what they call

which they call the grand old men of the socialist party are plotting their clapping one another on the back row and now because stress can seems to be on the verge of of being liberated from new york city's our judicial system mobile phones are increasingly sophisticated these days but there is one here is you might not have considered catching fish and in trawler crews used to rely on luck for a good catch but as british writer now reports it's a different kind of network that's funding their fortunes. multan kumar wraps up his engine for a day of fishing off the coast of carolina the southernmost state in india has a little bit of i studied in school until the seventh grade but then i had to leave school because we were not economically well off so i had to help my dad with fishing kumar is one of thousands of fishermen in the state who wake up at one o'clock in the morning to earn a living for decades fishermen like kumar relied on luck and prayer to find
12:11 am
a good catch but all that has changed since the introduction of the mobile phone in the state more than ten years ago the boy you are going to if the fish is not available would go fishing or fisherman in other parts of the sea call us and tell us where we might be able to find a good catch then we go to that particular place. in addition because of the new ease of communication kumar is able to find out how much demand is that his local market and the prices the buyers are offering in order to determine where best to sell his fish today he is making double the amount of money he was making before he started using a mobile phone he now owns his own boat and says he is able to send his three daughters to college india has the fastest growing mobile phone market in the world in the most growth is happening in rural areas what may be seen as a convenience in the last is being utilized by indian fishermen revolutionizing their business and turning them into entrepreneurs and business men in their communities most of these fishermen have been doing this work for generations and
12:12 am
never imagined they'd become so tech savvy they had watched their fathers and grandfathers come home from sea several times with no fish at all but today that never happens you know about a little bit of there's a lot of difference between the times when we used to go fishing with stick and now when we go fishing with engine but after the arrival of the phone it's become easier for us at our studies show that mobile phones aren't just empowering the fisherman in the community more competition means better prices for consumers and. average they've fallen by four percent it's a new quality of life for the people of this community who never dreamed that they would escape poverty what do you most fishermen are literates but we want to give a proper education to want children little and that is possible because of the owning we get from the fishing business there's no doubts that mobile phones have helped. providing new opportunities by advancing their tradition with technology

boom which brightened. soon from phones to. start on t.v. don't comb. your watching r t live from moscow airliners are at their most vulnerable during takeoff and landing and now there is an increasing threat from the ground from a beam of light more than fifty planes in russia have had lasers shown into the cockpit this year dazzling pilots just when they need all their concentration doing their chopper reports on the police hunt for the whole against behind a potentially lethal lasers. there it becomes clear proof that the devil of a laser in the eye can be a major distraction. for food bill or christian or knowledge and it manton these
12:16 am
kind of to the consequences could be catastrophic if someone is targeted while flying an aircraft with hundreds of passengers on board blinding pilots by laser beams has become an increasing nuisance in russia with over fifty attacks registered since the beginning of the year the latest incident was that this most important one the pilots of a tupolev passenger ally in a arriving from istanbul were does old by popple green light aimed at the aircraft by someone on the ground just minutes later and not that probably. but i think what but yet it's only a matter of time before that deadly accident occurs. despite the huge danger pilots are attached with the most powerful and far reaching green lasers and during the most risky stage of a flight landing. it was around two in the morning we were at eight hundred meters
12:17 am
above the ground when i spotted that a green beam of light was hopping about all of it if it was thicker it would have closed the landing strip to us to avoid risk we learned it automatically. but not all our craft can land on autopilot and even if they do those in the cookie need to remain in control and be able to see. the effect of a laser beam on a pilot can be compared to that of lightning a blind you. potentially lethal laser guns imported from china can be bought in russia for as little as a hundred dollars firing a laser beam as far as five kilometers they can burn through a paper and even plastic. in the u.s. sales of such devices are banned russian legislators are also considering outlawing them and toughening punishment for this offense though some are shining a spotlight on the police calling for more action the question of everyone's
12:18 am
waiting for new laws so there's no excuse for police and action on the ground our current legislation is good enough is allows for the arrest and imprisonment of sorts foods for up to ten years in prison for good i mean we have over a million police officers in the country who are supposed to take care of the problem take helicopters or knives scopes on patrol the skies do something. as of now there has been only one arrest in russia for intentionally targeting an aircraft with a liaison with this suspect still under investigation attempting to down a plane by other means would be classed as terrorism public concern in russia is rising about the potentially equally serious waste from laser louts and their high tech hooliganism it's been a great show for our team it's the. relatives of three bosnian muslims who were killed in this represents a massacre during the bosnian war have won a lawsuit against the netherlands dutch judges have ordered the government to pay
12:19 am
compensation the victims were support staff for the dutch un peacekeeping force and the were among the muslims who took shelter and the un protected enclave the man who were executed by bosnian serbs after peacekeepers forced them out of the compound along with thousands of others more than eight thousand bosnian muslim men and boys who were killed in srebrenica in july one thousand nine hundred five i was in a particular political analyst based in belgrade says it's the u.n. who is responsible not the netherlands. the dutch soldiers who are under un made mandate there's no question about that now on the other hand i think maybe somebody is trying to shift the blame from the u.n. to a member state and this is tricky business because at the end of the day we have some lawsuits other lawsuits not this one against the united nations itself and it's going to or european court because the dutch courts refused to rule against you know u.n. so this may be somebody is trying to shift the blame over to holland rather than
12:20 am
the u.n. because if the u.n. is liable to one lawsuit it may be liable to watch suits all over the world we also have families of service times who are victims of muslim forces from serbia in the in the period of nineteen ninety two to ninety ninety five also suing the dutch state themselves also for failing protection to provide. action. from what was supposed to be a demilitarized area. and this militarization never actually took place if one looks at the testimony of hundreds of dutch soldiers who testified as to what happens to a bit of meat so you could see that they were actually put in quite a difficult position politics were being played high politics with people's lives you know you get a mandate to disarm and then they're telling you actually wall don't disarm and then grab a bird breaks out and you're the one left responsible. let's now take a look at some other stories from around the world an american woman has been
