nineteen of them will be do i say east coast hurricane irene haas of three new causing severe flooding while leaving millions without retreats and she. has been one of the major players in recent nato led military campaigns such as in afghanistan and leave next fall she talks to john de fazio editing a top weekly news magazine this press so about the country's role in these conflicts and his view that economic interests are a big factor for a time and politicians. new. allegations of italian forces paying bribes to the taliban first appeared in the media in t. thousand and nine a place that was furiously denied by but now u.s. diplomatic cables uncovered by telling us press a magazine reveal that concerns over the alleged payments reached the highest levels of the us administration we're joined now by the editor. jennifer thank you

very much for joining us say you like a scene uncovered these diplomatic cables. these cables go. down so what was going on in afghanistan we have the phones and the source and intelligence about this by him and be made by the government until ninety nine. do we can. leave as a confirmation because according to these files bush personally president bush was asking where was corny as minister to stop by a man in afghanistan when the. publisher of some allegation all of the ten out of these of the member of the government of the defense means the. only person won't deny that they said there was no by mt why we can exclude balls now or give

us the evidence that the taliban government was paying some tribes and the taliban's in afghanistan ok so let's talk a bit more about what happened in two thousand and nine when these allegations first came out the response from the italian government there was no response you have to feel that everything about afghanistan he needs is a. question because of the we never say that italian troops are in afghanistan for war we always said to the parliament that. it's a peace mission and so everything about afghanistan is covered by a secret state secret the military secret and most of all disinformation all the evidence about what italian troops do every day in afghanistan fighting. what all the troops do in afghanistan in italy is the night of the levels why did

the italian forces take this approach towards easing. it's a traditional way i mean all the forces doing it can stand the proof of british forces paying some tribes in. cash there was an incident in two thousand and five or. the c. one hundred eighty from the bleed from the regular for the crash of the south in afghanistan manti's was full of money there was this man a bearing with the cash man a dollar and they were used. to. many sources including these files italian secret service where just two hours. of quiet say ok italian troops are going to stay here for six months we don't care what they are going in the to do in the future we just want six safe months and

this is the prize we are going to pay for let's talk about. involvement in libya the name in. public opinion in libya is a different question because libya is. is a big economic call affair for italy. traditionally leaned over to tally for. us for not sure for the interest of. all the big italian factories in libya actually it's the libyan government. that you created which is that i am because bank a in the past they all have even today they only a small amount of fear share it's. very important for our economy and so that's a different question when. we have we have decide the telegram

and the side of the bell seen in benghazi because there was a bigger canonical interest in it and they can sense now that we could possibly see a very disorganized group of rebels coming in and maybe a similar situation to be seen in iraq that this organization plays out this is a big. speech really because of the actually the people are solved as not been made by forces coming from the east the falses. more link at the retail and government but the forces coming from the west which seems more link at the with british government i mean in italy we have a similar. situation in libya even with even now as like a big chess between italy and france. to reach.

of all fields some of the gas fields in libya libya is a big question we. we fall to that french great retain where use the red belts to. c.l. italian assets in libya that's was the biggest fear of anything and you think that's the case i don't know we would see at the end of the game actually the game is going on and saw. it. governament mostly the italian be getting an education and he was going strong leaving see the county envoy has got there he is. for an affair. the path mental which is very very strong i think that and he was playing good in the last part of the secret libyan war but we will see at the end which gene but secretly what was going

in. these. game or chariots between different tribes different group of rebels the front man of the gadhafi government now we have some very important members of the government who use to withdraw or use. who free. it is an italian economical groups but we don't know if these people are still. good links with the tribes and with the groups who made the rebellion and so we don't know which tribes which group which government is going to start in the next future most of all we don't know. really control the.

gas lines. pipelines this is the most important question for you to describe what's happening live is a chess game if issue reasons the nato mission in libya was humanitarian reasons i mean realistically i mean how much of it does come down to political games on monetary and the libyan mission as in when a player in question is a nonsense because the reason of the mission was to protect. protect population and. when yesterday there was the red bell back to me was the nato mission to do to stop the lab and some. people need to put. people living in tripoli i mean new money study on a mission was just a diplomatic cold of a mission for a different thing that i just. i don't think it was and that i mean you have

just made me up and well that one. is keeping the from me ground so refugee escaping from libya was having problems with. the way the sea the. ships were not packed in them. nearly a billion people in the world are going from free and free to. the united states even our trash cans or food with food you just have to go get it all of these perfectly good eggs because one was cracked in even get all over the other ones just threw them away and she's from the german oh. we really like to up with. the dumpster at one am this morning three pm this afternoon on the grill. made

one dozen dumpster equations. delicious breakfast for the family eggs and toast for about a week every year in america we throw away ninety six billion pounds of. blind rushes would be soon which brightened a few. songs from phones to impressions. nice friends dancehall teen dot com. a sea of nature and

discover it. means. a communicate with the wild and learn. test yourself and become free and. see what nature can give you see. me it's easy to expose it's safe to. eat. it's cause. i got out of the military in one thousand nine hundred sixty six i got out because

of the things i saw the things i was doing and the reasons that we were given for doing and there was a personal protest. during the vietnam war in a two war movement emerged that altered the course of history this movement didn't take place on college campuses but in berets and on ships to penetrated elite military colleges like west point and it spread throughout the battlefields of vietnam yet today few people know about the g.i. movement against the war in vietnam. at. the army we always said free the army or fun travel and adventure but it really meant to be are. there clouds childhood was overshadowed by this tragedy. these two feel the fear they faced. and remember every second of this nightmare.

it will remain in their memories and hearts forever. and using so. innocent. little angels.

is bandy the vast majority wouldn't have a clue however the game is very simple it's just right field hockey played online. that may not be as big as football and ice hockey and he still has a strong following in russia and sweden and one of the biggest stars around this mikhail speech nick of there's a household name in both these nations has been a big week for the russian captain as he rejoined his beloved denominate go on the spur of the swedish league to sit on this and i believe it is more fun to watch a band the in russia as the game is a lot quicker but there is more emphasis on it sounds good doesn't get in sweden the game is more tactically based and it's a little defensively or you take up with you they are very good at this their funding is big business in russia but the sport is played professionally it's very international matches can be upwards of thirty thousand players can expect to earn over one hundred thousand dollars a year whereas in sweden a monthly salary is in the region of just two to three thousand euros in many of

the players have to take up second jobs so you're not set up with the standard of bandy is increasing all the time crease in salaries also helps that there are a number of other factors which are making the sport better the more and more popular in the likes of russia in sweden there are a number of factors limiting the development to bandy firstly it's not for lympics sport which means it difficult for associations in countries where the sport isn't as popular to get state funding also votes are very fast and it's hard to change a watch when in the stands the sheer speed of the game isn't suited to be a whole can be difficult to see past can sometimes be the case in field hockey for the most professionals i think we need to try to spread the game. really in play a tournament scene countries where the game isn't as developed it that it will be the big championships take place in russia and sweden so we should try to play more in countries like finland norway and even in north america where the people read about the game in magazines however it is only when they see on t.v.
