chilling accounts emerging about the human cost. america's oil blockade against iran with immersion may have been violated by none other than the u.s. military itself the pentagon has admitted a counter count for some of the fuel it brought in for its operation in afghanistan it's not suspected that iranian petrol made up a significant percentage of imports as artie's can achieve she can explain. the u.s. gives money to the afghan government to buy fuel for its forces now u.s. officials the special inspector general for afghanistan reconstruction say they cannot verify that the fuel purchased for afghan security forces in recent years did not come from iran it could be their way of saying that it most probably did come from iran and it could mean that the u.s. has violated its own sanctions thereby letting us taxpayer dollars go to remain coffers the sanctions that the u.s. has put in place not only bar u.s. companies from doing business with iran but also punish third party countries for
3:06 pm
doing business with iran but no matter how many rounds of sanctions are in effect they were never watertight even though the european union under a lot of pressure from washington stopped buying uranium oil you have a host of other countries that still do iran's biggest buyer now biggest buyers now are china india and japan and these countries are oil thirsty especially china so china it's imports of uranium oil india's imports of iranian crude were up thirty percent according to tanker arrival data western sanctions have it rains oil exports in two thousand and twelve leading to a very deep plunge in the iranian currency but continuous robust demand from its top buyers as well as the purchase of new tankers allowed the way into unexpectedly boost exports late last year despite the sanctions the u.s. can't absolutely force those major economies especially china to stop buying from
3:07 pm
iran political and economic ramifications of such pressure would be significant but the u.s. government is trying they're prompting those other countries to buy oil from washington's allies saudis and katori so you could imagine how happy the gulf states are about this whole new business coming in but washington is resolute to put more pressure on other countries to put forward more threats like cutting them off from the u.s. banking system. so many countries the situation starts to look more like blackmail than anything else i was regards to iran and blackmail is essentially what the us calls diplomacy which by the way is not working but washington acts to hold not only ran hostage to sanctions but the whole world which is of course creating more cash. heading for the stars but lost at sea there's been a red failure the russian year was liberation as a rocket carrying communications equipment dishes minutes after takeoff.

3:09 pm
addition to this violence from syria that continuously spills across the border and in the past artillery from syria has killed turkish civilians what that means is that you have a whole host of groups who could have carried out this attack back in september there was that notorious mission in benghazi in libya where we had four and then we can stop members killed including the american ambassador and then just a few days ago you had britain's foreign office warning of a potential threat against the british embassy in tripoli so what we are witnessing is a chain of events targeting western embassies not least of all the united states that seems to be picking up momentum and it is a reflection of the growing anger against washington and other western countries at a particularly unstable time in the region. and professor of international relations for bill kinda university in turkey believes that the u.s. should be less involved in other countries of theirs twelve void such attacks in

3:13 pm
all paved with gold and the politicians certainly are worried and they've got it wrong in the past you see back in two thousand and four the previous labor government got it really wrong they got the figures so wrong about the number of poles that were coming over to potentially live in england they suggested that there would be something around fifteen thousand polish citizens coming over to the u.k. lo and behold less than a decade later the polish community in the u.k. is one of the biggest communities and polish is the second language spoken in england and wales the previous year was the year of the lympics and politicians trump and trumpeting great britain and how london in britain is the best destination the world billions of pounds poured into advertising to really sell the u.k. but it seems that for immigrants potential immigrants from rumania and from ball garia the message is that britain isn't so great after all so
3:14 pm
a lot of people used to use that sort of as quite farcical the fact that the government is willing to trash its own image and to admit that there are problems with the economy in disarray that there's a housing crisis and that there are problems with schools and hospitals everyone's been having a good old chuckle over the idea of a negative ad campaign and yes some people have actually said that it's quite insulting but for remain ians and for vogue ariens but one newspaper has even suggested that people send in their own suggestions for what an anti britain poster would look like and the result has been really quite scathing and quite harsh to britain as a country we've got slogans that include u.k. yuck and come to britain and clean the toilets or even britain we haven't left ourselves because the public transport isn't running so people very sort of mocking at the same time but quite so. gazing about the country and we also took to the streets of london to find out what ordinary londoners think about the situation
3:15 pm

france's president francois hollande is planning a trip to mali to survey what's being hailed as a successful military intervention against islamists the french acknowledged however that the operation is now entering a tricky phase which is likely to involve guerrilla tactics from the extremists observers say the three week long fighting has spread more havoc across the country with civilians pay a bloody price for it we've got the story of one of the victims brought to us exclusively by a local journalist gonzalo one. grosser there are four of us as betty ellis the war became a real nightmare for the people of a small city in the se google region it was one of the first places bombed by french warplanes before more jihadists arrived sweeping south towards the capital bamako the french intervention left a pile of debris in ashes and that's just the visible traces of the war they left it civilians who were left with the scars that will last a lifetime one family paid
3:17 pm
a deep price for this conflict against the islamist terrorists one of the family sons was killed by a jihadist soldier inside his own home. one brother was attacked by a group of militants the rich old and among them he started running and got back into our house but they followed him one of the children fired at him but missed and then another insurgent shot him inside the house my brother fell and was riddled with bullets we laid his body in the house we couldn't bury him because we were afraid to go outside. just me this is just one example of the terror that the conflict is putting mali and civilians through plaguing the weakest the most no one was surprised when india bali once jihadist troops arrived it was discovered that the majority of the military were heavily armed child soldiers. we discussed the upcoming visit of president francois hollande to mali with strasburg based journalists an expert on fronts the robert hahn is they believe that the trip is
3:18 pm
all about political grandstanding. he may regard this is a window of opportunity to present this is a great french excess which militarily technically tactically certainly looks like let's be honest but it's his opportunity because clearly in the background there is considerable american assistance there now british troops coming in better organized a thousand african troops it's not going to be and further and i may say the french are very reluctant to approach the algerian from c o two closely because algeria and france as you know have a long history with. bitterness civil war i think this may well be the last chance for longhouse to claim a victory before it all becomes obviously an allied operation and i think that's probably the main reason. israeli warplanes have been reported in the skies over lebanon the day after syria accused tel of eve of launching airstrikes on its military research facility killing two israel has kept stony silence over the
3:19 pm
a tag which if confirmed is a direct violation of the union of the u.n. charter syria's key opposition group has joined the chorus of outrage over the bombing the national coalition slammed the airstrike as an attack on the country so venti while the government has pledged to retaliate to talk more on this i'm joined live by u.s. based freelance all right abend shriner. ben syria's opposition have a supporter of damascus in condemnation of the attack how significant is that. the only thing probably not in the office the same with the government right now was their office from. israel that was one of the reasons. we saw the syrian media reported their strike. i suppose to what they did to the southern. border after syria and israel neither confirmed or
3:20 pm
denied it and syria why don't i think. only through the regime's perspective they see this as if it actually ok to unite syrian together against the cuts the israelis strike actually playing to the rebels and i mean they are repulsive insane and they've been trying to storm the facility for months. right. back and by attacking israel clearly interjected into the conflict. and by talking. nobody can argue they've decided what. was the ruckus. so we want to see how it plays out on the ground. forces to get it one zero zero zero zero it's going to escalate here serious about their school to retaliate. we know that in the past weeks around and for the talk in syria because there isn't. so we saw stop.
3:21 pm
and go and that they went and diplomats have threatened israel with grave consequences of the incident what exactly do you think they're talking about here. i don't i don't think we truly know what that was or nor can i mean it unlikely that iran or syria will directly target israel it's more likely if there is going to be any sort of. retaliation most likely. who has thought it was going to. but if it were up we see that syria has gone to the protests. strike. so it's been more than two days now says israel allegedly attacked the syrian targets that killed two people and there's still no official comment from israel why. israel has done this repeatedly where they saw this
3:22 pm
co-host go when they talk. to them. they then either confirm or deny and hope that. you. the country town school feel compelled to tell you porous them syria or. publicize the toughest problem so that will be the case. when china freedom try to show you his soul is here on our team about the fishing. there's more news for you online including torture executive x. accuses and a taste of covering it all up those are the reasons why a whistleblower it leaves agency and got thirty months in jail to r.t. dot com is revelation. and of find out all about a world war two era the team that exist already dave yeah we've got all the details about the russian atlantis and our t. top.
