who lives were tragically cut short we know of one player who just before this flight had proposed to his girlfriend and was hoping to start a family you know of another player who just declared that this was his final season and he wanted to give up hockey so that he could spend more time with his family of course losing his wife on the way to his first game of his last season also a flight attendant twenty nine years old just got married three months ago and was planning to leave the aviation industry so that she could start a family of her own now as to the rebuilding of the team and the spirit of moving forward best a geisha is still going on right now as we speak but beyond that we have the opportunity to speak to players from former jaroslav all the locomotive teams who said that they will come back so that they can help rebuild this franchise and make it the championship team that it once was we also have the opportunity to talk to the next generation of players the people who hope to become professionals and this

is what they had to say about moving forward from this tragedy. as the city continues to mourn one very dedicated group of young men have chosen to honor their heroes in a neat way by getting back on the ice with your mother because she told us that we should go on through the ice simply for all the guys say was a life in the spirit of the story he told us that when he learns. the story for these players practice in these special as it was from this area you know with the team from their state for the fans. in minnesota from six in september they're trying. sessions before mr morgan was confident and quite optimistic and determined all of them bring very high spirits for you. one courage working within the system was supposed to be on the front and the back working now and stands are still strong for those affected by this tragic loss i think it sets hard hearted go to

tested for the county the county is going to come right through. proving that even though they've gone from the ice to members of this ill fated most emotive team will continue to be in the hearts and minds of the people of jaroslava and the nation for generations to come in europe said the shaun thomas altshuler. so how was the city robbed of its sports stars and families and their loved ones who cannot r.t. dot com for the latest updates investigators continue to roll out the theories the hypothetical task to create all the latest being that the fuel was contaminated to learn more about the possible causes of the crash the scope of outside r.t. dot com. security is being stepped up across the u.s. following a terrorist threat on the eve of the diversity of the september eleventh attacks american intelligence intercepted communications from an al qaeda operative in pakistan indicating plans for a vehicle bomb plot against new york city or washington but you know port my reports a decade on and many u.s.

citizens still feel vulnerable in the world country. ten years ago america was blocked by unprecedented terror. nearly three thousand innocent lives were lost in a post nine eleven world was born. our war on terror. begins with al qaida. but it does not in there. it will not end until every terrorist group of global reach has been found stopped and defeated washington's military reach began with the hunt for osama bin ladin america strikes back afghanistan as only with bombs and missiles from the air in the sea then a preemptive pounding into iraq. in the decade that followed america's fight for freedom has been skating by torture secret detention and rendition human rights

violations symbolized by landmarks like guantanamo bay grave and the blogger airbase prison we had garnered the empathy not only of the world the muslim world and if we had the courage to be vulnerable we would be far safer and more secure than we are today instead we drank deep from that very dark lips or of natural journalist in office chris hedges says america's terror unleashed throughout the middle east has opened a pandora's box of evil estimates are over a million iraqi dead since the invasion. you know hundreds and hundreds of civilians killed in pakistan thousands killed in afghanistan not to mention millions of people displaced in a refugee camp some in the terror that we have unleashed will not go on. it is and it will strike us eventually however in

a post nine eleven america citizens have been forced to compromise there for. freedom in the name of security the past decade has paved the way for new state practices such as warrantless wiretapping intrusive airport screening and greater authority for law enforcement what some call a police state in the making as this national security state we rose and as it becomes easier for the government to scrutinize guys in this in all aspects of our lives i think americans are we worried about is the issue here is your argument then it was the specific isolated or there is a heater that is all around us and not to the right here at home from people in our own country. since nine eleven a rising tide of islamophobia haase passed through this former tolerant nation according to the f.b.i.

the poor man intended to carry out their plan today dozens of muslim americans have been arrested and convicted in so-called f.b.i. for oil terror plots plots that were orchestrated and manufactured by government paid informants these cases have been created by the government and yet we're supposed to feel safer because criminals that would not have come up with a plot had it not been brought to them on a platter by the u.s. government are now in jail and we have you know snowball the pollens that's all around the world only raise more he can only raise more bad feelings only reinforced many narratives their violent you know narratives of american imperialism around the world and we think we've created more enemies than friends you know we targeted communities rather than making them partners not only has it not made us any safer i think that it has undermined you know the very fabric of american society the fabric of a post nine eleven america the united states has conducted an operation that killed

osama bin laden the leader of the. still we do war in the name of. america can't believe i can barely get the right but it's ten years that followed that military received. peter. around the world the man behind nine eleven happened after that international feat yet illiterate or in apartheid artsy the. international consultant or former belgian m.p. load of that all says the u.s. just used on a level as a pretext to wage war on everyone who disagreed with its policies the war on terror you should not forget it's actually a war everyone in the world who disagrees with the economic and military policy of the united states whether they react violently or in or if they can democrats

it's all against the coniston in iraq but they are going to get is some kind of controlled fake democracy completely controlled by the us government that you're not surprised after after all the only real gloss and whether the real goals of economic dominance over the middle east and other reason origin yes even as failure meaning the whole reason is for more unstable than it ever was before the west has no place in this country it's up to the people of those kinds of himself to decide what their fate will be and should rather have been there in the first place. i'll be asked the people of new york what kind of impact the tragedy had on their lives . it's more like oh it's so things are pretty unpredictable you don't know what what's going to happen next i don't know you kind of more aware of it ever for it's just more on the lookout people should change their will think of a way of proving that are people. accepting that people can be different in about ten minutes time watch more people on the streets of the big apple have to say

about nine eleven ten years after the terrorist attack rocked the city. well if you have something to share on the subject you can log onto our web site to participate in our latest poll that's r.t.a. dot com and today our question is what does not eleven mean is for you now ten years on and so far the most popular response is a convenient pretext to invade afghanistan and iraq the answer a conspiracy to rob americans of their freedoms comes a close second and some of you say it means a tragedy the nation must learn to let go as an enemy attack the u.s. will never allow to happen again well you can go to our cost to contribute your thoughts. to terrorist attacks or to troops anonymous. since your solution really must sneeze some people stop. the vision of a. chinese on the cheap tickets. to.

look back at nine eleven and see. and president obama has pleaded with voters to support his half trillion dollar package of spending cuts aimed at creating jobs and stimulating dislike of economy over the almost ten percent of americans currently out of work the latest rescue plan needs to be passed quickly by lawmakers but they're also led to a publisher of the trends journal says that the politicians are looking in the wrong places when it comes to combating u.s. unemployment if anybody watched that you could wonder how any self respecting good could have any respect for these politicians jumping up and down and clapping like trained seals that every two bit lawing all this creature was is obama's campaign speech on one end you have the republicans that want to cut back in title

mention anything going to the people bringing in our stereo measures and obama promising empty promises the federal reserve and some sixteen trillion dollars in stimulus back to a loans etc and they couldn't create jobs well obama said he wants to create infrastructure jobs perfect but they creating them in the wrong places they creating him in afghanistan they're rebuilding iraq now they're going to be rebuilding libya oh it's simple there's a way to solve this cutback on these massive wars and defense spending and repatriate the money number one and then listen to what else obama wants to do he wants to put out more free trade pacts oh great export jobs overseas why don't you export americans over to china panama indonesia and vietnam to do them so

we have to re trench we have to stop these trade agreements that are raping america of its resources both mental and natural. the u.s. led war on drugs in afghanistan has been ongoing since the fall of the taliban in two thousand and one and it's like millions of dollars being spent on destroying crops afghanistan remains the world leader in opium poppy production or ever discover the crackdown is having an adverse effect with countries like the u.s. now forced to grow their own park place to plug a shortage in pharmaceuticals in the rolling fields of oxfordshire at this time of year you'll probably see wheat or barley ripening for the harvest but troy springs and warm summer's have been able to plant a very different type of crop opium poppies that are under contract to a pharmaceutical company that turns the opium into morphine and coating to plug a shortfall in strong painkillers in the national health service in fact there's

a global shortage of drugs made from poppies the opium here will be put to good use but thousands of miles away nato troops are wiping out existing afghan poppies with bombing burning and spraying the main question is why are we destroying crops and then having to grow poppies in fields in it's been used by the american and british governments repeatedly one of these so-called soft arguments of the liberal arguments is that they're fighting a war on drugs this is completely opposite it's not true it's not what war is about we should own up to it's easy to understand why afghan farmers to grow then sell opium to the taliban there's an effective distribution network and they can make around seventeen times more profit per hectare than they could on wheat despite the obvious economics farmers are still being encouraged to grow other crops british m.p. frank field thinks that policy has failed but the americans won't budge america wools

and we're following this behind them. since what is. relationship. when you approach it was. not to be able to use it as a position with the americans to rethink a strategy which. has if we look historically has. how do we try and change it frank feels and his group poppy really think afghan opium should be legalized instead it would benefit afghan farmers raise much needed revenue for the governments nation rebuild and stop the opium falling into the hands of the drug cartels field says it should be military strategy to. have chosen problems rather than brains and anybody who is thinking about how do we get ordinary people ordinary farmers to see poppies as

a cash crop. to protect the backs of troops we will be thinking about how do we harness the how do we pay them for it. transferred into medicines to. burn in afghanistan and kept secrets here in britain no one wants to talk about the u.k.'s opium growing program we asked the farmer and the company they wrote. if they would give us an interview but fallen smith said they wouldn't allow the farmers to talk to us because it's part of that contract with the home office that they keep the poppy growing. the home office also declined to comment while poppies are increasingly harvested in britain the so-called war on drugs is being decisively lost the u.n. says opium production in afghanistan has been on the rise since the us occupation began in two thousand and one nor am it oxfordshire. egypt is on high

alert after a night of riots and cairo left at least three people dead and over a thousand injured them instruction for reform of the country quickly turned violent as protesters vented their anger against the israeli embassy a mob tore down a wall filled the high rise building and ransacked parts of the embassy which was virtually unstoppable at the time well after hours without intervention riot police used tear gas to disperse the protesters who responded by throwing petrol bombs israeli diplomats and their families have been flown home style of it condemned the attack the incident comes less than a month after israeli forces killed five egyptian policemen in a border clash presidential candidate also television has only itself to blame for the embassy assault. as they use have been attacking and b. if you talk lately their sponsors of the egyptian government didn't respond

positively to their demands even modest but given government also was really lenient with israel is so very different people was really if you lose a road back into the president and that you go to the egyptian government they're not there so you said there's a real network would do something for egypt but he had started to give. around for example demolishing that embassy it would be here isn't because it was going to respect the of the fact that there's a gibson's this is a very bad mood. let's take a look at some other news dominating the headlines around the world and we start with benghazi the cradle of the country's revolution where hundreds of people have walked to the streets to protest the actions of the new libyan government meanwhile libyan rebels are pulling back from body will lead to one of four remaining will get off the strongholds as nato airstrikes reportedly start in the area of town is held by boy lose had been given until saturday to surrender to the new libyan
