france intensifies its assault on the hideouts of islamic militants somalis border with syria locals in the liberated cities claim that campaigns come at a high cost to civilians. the most comprehensive allegations yet of illegal rendition and torture in secret cia prisons around the world emerge in a report released by a top american n.g.o.s. and iranian president flies into egypt for the first time in more than three decades in a visit seen as an attempt to improve ties between the two regional heavyweights since islamists came to power there.

live from the new center here in moscow this is r.t. with you twenty four hours a day french military forces have stepped up their offensive on rebel bases in northern mali with troops moving into the city of kiddo the last bastion of islamist insurgents around one thousand nine hundred soldiers from chad have also joined operation meanwhile two senior islamic leaders have been captured fleeing airstrikes on the border with algeria forty reports now from the war which country . euler see that is their money bill as they know what i like today in this town in mali everyone is celebrating the capture of two important islamist leaders one of them is mohammed the head of the demon a group which retired a contin book too for months particularly violating the rights of women he was captured along with bob leader of the movement for unity and jihad in west africa toerag say he was taken north of keep close to the border with algeria the capture

of these two leaders demonstrates what everyone knows the city of go and timbuktu where havens of security in a dangerous wilderness we were ourselves detained by the mali an army when trying to get to the city of any movement towards the north has been strictly forbidden since last weekend when six million soldiers were killed by explosives planted by rebels on roads leading there this risk affects the stability of the country distances in mali are so big that it is next to impossible to travel safely on the roads so now the region lacks food medicine and fuel specifically in this part of the region in mopti there are about seven thousand refugees children suffer the most unless medication is brought in the centers treating malnutrition like the one we saw in mopti would face tragedy i mean. likely. treating malnutrition is a necessity in today's critical situation negligence was the cause of malnutrition

before but now and then this crisis most children are suffering tisn't us it happens in every home where children don't get enough care and could die. alternative c. routes are being tried to deliver supplies to timbuktu the in the share and spread them to the north from there we also saw many people come to donate blood so desperately needed in hospitals a christian community in the central region of mali has been collecting supplies that is in for. the war has taken on a religious meaning and when that happens the first. when they do they announce they're hunting us those who are directly linked with religion. get us out. despite the fact the war is moving away the situation remains critical a country filled with refugees and. the health and food crisis is putting eighteen million people at risk of malnutrition there are so on us but here it is what am i going to hear gonzalo lunch or mali for r t meanwhile mounting reports from cities

that have been liberated suggest that freedom has come at a cost of french airstrikes have reportedly resulted in a number of civilian casualties. he's a researcher from the international he just returned from the water and country says the campaign raises many concerns. but we were able to to register was that to use tonight solutions including your traditional killings we collected testimonies from a large variety of people who told us how. some people are arrested in the town of severity and then brought in short of where they were treated and then froning to the well later we had also stories about people who had been arrested and some of them disappeared and regarding the care of these of the civilians who were killed in the town of qana what we are asking both of the french

and the million armies is not they should or should be a commission of inquiry just to to know the circumstances of the death of the five people who were killed including the children because these people need a potion there should be kind of warnings given to the civilian population so that they could they could leave the war zones to to seek shelter elsewhere some of the groups been leaving some of the towns in mali and they may be seeking refuge in other places i mean we had been writing about the hostage taking of our kind of of some thirty trees being taken into a stage and a concern also what we are concerned about is that there may be a prisoner tax agreement civilly and who may be accused of collaborating with the armed groups so we are concerned about that. fresh allegations of emerge of secret

cia prisons around the world and violations that have allegedly been taking place there the new york based ngo funded by one of america's richest men george soros has unveiled a report which claims to detail the operation of these so-called black sites and he's going to church can has the details. this is a very comprehensive report prepared by the open society foundations not only do they detail torture techniques that were used at cia secret prisons overseas to so-called black sites but also give a list of countries that one way or another participated in cia secret detention and extraordinary rendition operations including by hosting cia prisons on their territories detaining interrogating torturing and abusing it of the jewels assisting in a tour in the capture and transport of detainees and so on so the list includes countries like of ganis then all australia canada denmark

djibouti age of georgia germany syria turkey italy the united arab emirates. united the united kingdom yemen and other countries while president bush acknowledged that the cia had secretly detained about one hundred prisoners and this report alleges that there were more the u.s. government had only identified sixteen high value detainees italy is the only country where record criminally convicted officials for the involvement in extraordinary rendition operations canada is the only country to issue an apology to an extraordinary rendition victim i'm on here are are with who was rendered to and tortured in syria and only three countries in addition to canada's suite in australia and the united kingdom have issued compensation to extraordinary rendition victims and this report is rife with human rights abuses and it's clear that high ranking bush administration officials bear responsibility for authorizing

human rights violations and yet no one was prosecuted because the u.s. government has. classified everything related to its torture practices and any accusation would be dismissed on state secrets grounds. journalist and historian douglas found in time feels the anti terror measures in force by america overzealous because the government is riding the wave of the myth it helped create its wealth arise by the u.s. congress by certain very important congress people who believe that they are reflecting the will of the american people in the wake of nine eleven there was a huge outcry in america for vengeance for the united states to prove for the government to prove that it was more terrible than the people who had launched the nine eleven attack and so congress believing had to reflect the will of the american people authorize the cia to do this since nine eleven the government has been able to maintain this attitude that it's required for security to commit

crimes and. this is never been necessary before what it exhibits is what it illustrates is that the government has. since nine eleven more capable propagandizing the american people by exaggerating the threats that exist in order to propecia way which probably is a state of emergency that really doesn't exist in which the government's able to portray the united states the greatest military power that ever existed on the planet earth as some of the person who has been bullied. the truth is exactly the opposite. the iranian president mahmoud ahmadinejad's in cairo on his first visit to egypt in more than thirty is attending a muslim summit and is discussing security issues with the country's leader mohammed morsi iran also wants car room board with such issues as syria and its own nuclear program journalist neil clark told me earlier that tehran needs all the

friends it can get. around strongest ally in the arab world has now been serious serious been abroad a lot of iran this is the reason why the pro israel lobby why the americans why the saudis etc so keen to talk a sad now there's no such moment the syrian government is about to fall but were it for iran would be even more isolated than it is today and the unit in a very dangerous position so they are what makes good sense what iran is trying to build bridges with cairo are there financial motives behind this meeting where we've got to believe the economies are bearing in mind the situation there in iran with all those sanctions appearing to have a quite an impact on the iranian economy do they both need each other i think they do bill and i think from morsi point of view i think as we see harty all the rest in egypt but people are very happy with how things have gone legacy in carrying on the violence it and ship people are on iran in one way that she can say to these people look i'm not just a us puppet i am going to be different here so i think from his point and he could get popularity at home by taking

a more conciliatory line toward iran and from iranian point of view course they've been pretty good on house i mean the pro israel lobby has been very successful in passing it in the u.s. and other countries to pass tougher and tougher sanctions on iran he really can't he's a really bad state so iran needs all the friends he can get there's no reason for iran to be isolated there's no proof it's developing nuclear weapons it's got a peaceful nuclear energy program which there's no evidence to the contrary so therefore it's it's wrong but it should be totally isolated. coming up later in the program here naughty of the bottle of negative press the u.k. so this deflecting a potential wave of eastern european immigrants without highlighting just why they'd be better off staying at home that stored all this off in the break. while the. slaves technology innovation all the news developments from

news continues here in the gulf kingdoms of bahrain in kuwait has seen fresh public cries against the country's unelected routers who've been stepping up their crackdowns on dissent for the last two years calls for more rights and democracy are increasingly met with the wrists and brutal force as the conservative refused to concede while the west is accused of turning a blind eye to violation is by its key arab allies is reports. says. life in the gulf used to look like this. but the black gold hidden beneath the sands transformed the arabian states from and has came soaring structures of glass and steel physical testaments to their wealth and power in a wider region known for its tinderbox tensions the gulf monarchies have stood out for their relative stability and for an oil dependent west eager for

a military stronghold to counter iran the gulf became a strategic away since petro dollars have helped to insulate the gulf against economic hardships plaguing other states but not against popular uprisings now the gulf monarchies as a whole have been struggling to stave off the effects of the arab spring with varying degrees of success kuwait has largely seen as the most tolerant of the gulf countries but the worry is that the trend could be reversed activists say that it already has been political gatherings of more than twenty people are banned as are political parties and when the last opposition dominated parliament challenge the ruling authorities it was dismissed voting rules were changed to ensure critics say a more compliant parliament speaking out against the system has landed many activists in jail as for those who took to the streets to protest we were beaten up by. the special forces. the sound. and

after the march. whoever is on the street isn't just being detained and thrown into jail it's a struggle activists in bahrain are all too familiar with. three days after egypt's former president was ousted from power protests began in both frames like the kuwaitis they were demanding an end to the monarchy but more representation at a violent crackdown saw a shift in some of those demands but there's still not a stop it is that they need in different areas against the regime against that because i didn't stand that the situation. one thousand five hundred prison others we have. every day we have a lot of. security forces some rounding gave us but i think the people like that in the houses as an other gulf states the monarchy blames the unrest on a radical minority they are hardliners they want to see regime change they want to implement their own style of government and impose on the rest of the population.

a system of government that is totally unacceptable these demands called for a. minster style democracy captain head of style democracy in golf but critics disagree saying the protesters simply want their governments to listen i want to comes to violent crackdowns he says westminster and capitol hill simply turn a blind eye without a victims because we live in a country which have the u.s. and the united states and they don't get aboard the people they don't care about the humanity they don't care about the bahraini blood they care about the all you know. whether in bahrain saudi arabia qatar oman or kuwait seems like this one are becoming increasingly more common but nasa shows a power which like this one show that the gulf oil wealth alone isn't enough to insulate the countries from people taking to the streets and demand. greater stake

in their political system and unless the monarchies show themselves willing to listen their stability may prove to be. r.t. kuwait. remember with all the latest news by heading to our web site and here are some of the stories that we have for you right now. people are. highly toxic chemicals that are washed up on a pristine beach on the country's east coast. british intelligence is reportedly. accidentally spilled one of the country's biggest wartime secrets that story. speak your language. programs documentaries in arabic. from the world talks about fifty yards interviews intriguing story.

unrestricted access to the e.u. in twenty fourteen the government is now considering a negative advertising campaign about the country to make it less appealing to potential movers. reports. we have show many things going for our country the english language testing times brilliant history very creative people some of the best universities in the world a great place to do business we need to stand up and shout about how great britain is and get people to come and invest and visit but that's not the message for everyone the u.k. government is reportedly brainstorming ways to dissuade eastern european immigrants from coming to britain come january twenty fourth teen twenty nine million romanians and bulgarians will be able to live and work anywhere in europe including the u.k. one idea being considered a negative advertising campaign about broken britain while the government considers that some creative brits have been all too happy to expose their nation's flaws for

all to see as you can imagine not all the romanians living in the u.k. are cleaning the toilets some of them are highly qualified they've and understudies their so they find this very aggressive and under society campaigning as one minister put it a negative ad campaign would help to correct the impression that these streets are paved with gold but even considering how to put off would be migrants the british government has managed to offend not one but two whole countries and now one rumania newspaper has decided that rather than getting mad it's going to get even instead. the romanian spoof campaign says that since it's so tough in the u.k. brits should come to remain in danger by the british people to come to romania are going there here half of our women look like kate and the other half like her sister so this is a funny campaign but if you can see behind it there's actually

a serious message which is that romania has still valuable resources intelligence and humor and that britain should take advantage of this next wave. immigrants instead of marking there but the debate over immigration in the u.k. is growing more hostile some ministers have suggested limiting remaining in symbolic ariens access to health services and housing when they arrive i think it will look good or masters a country to do something much about but i can see where where the thought is coming from of having a lot of people coming over here and looking for work and benefits and housing but i just think with me really to do something like the immigration story something you want to be careful in talking about offing is a bit silly to be honest because we live in the union europe which is open for every every. which is you know in the years with the financial crisis getting worse britain isn't as attractive as it was to migrants

a decade ago english somehow managing that everybody in the world wants to come to england because england is obviously the most finest greatest country. in which people it is but they seem to forget that in the case of remaining friends and remain as a beautiful country loving warm exciting country to live in today when they produce these statistics about thirty million remain. everybody's going to leave and then the last one to light isn't going to be a single person left and then it really is nonsensical whether or not the anti britain campaign will ever make it to a billboard near the rest is now beside the point the british government has already made take these new best members feel that little bit less welcome here. r.t. london. us vice president joe biden joined the british prime minister david cameron

for national security meeting earlier today in downing street it was attended by british military chiefs intelligence officials and political leaders the american v.p. arrived in the u.k. on monday following visits to berlin and paris for top level talks are to serve first as this report. the vice president he's known for sometimes putting his foot in his mouth could have almost being another gaffe but some a very quick to point out when he said that he talked of being delighted to have been invited to that meeting and of having spent half his life in security meetings in the u.s. but people are quick to point out you don't actually have a spoke for years on the u.s. national security council he can give you that possibly he was referring to other security commitments but during his visit to downing street this is what part of what he took part in he was invited to this national security council meeting it was chaired by prime minister david cameron and it's thought that what was on the

agenda and talks about there were issues such as syria afghanistan iran and north africa now it's not unheard of foreign nationals to attend u.k. national security council meetings although it certainly is not common practice now perhaps that's a sign of as jay biden made mention to the special relationship that britain and the u.s. enjoy he spoke of the u.s. and britain as having the most open relationship that they have with any country in the world well that's all well and good but is a satisfactory relationship everyone want to talk more about that i'm doing by a member of the u.k. independence party stephen wolf thank you very much joining us to steve in open relationships let's go into that is it beneficial day for everyone i'm not sure it actually is i mean it should be we are and we are two countries that actually share common values terms of our legal systems our language the way that we look at

business and it should be but over the period of the years that we have this special relationship to winston churchill the first court of the fridge we've seen lots of arguments which we also see in those states clearly there was a huge to. group in the way that the british public did not want to get involved in afghanistan we also had a disagreement in the way that we did not want to get in vietnam and only recently we've had president obama suggesting that the british people should know that societies that democrats don't have a referendum of whether they should be in or outside of the european union so clearly the special relationship is often tested but that's what's so people here don't even believe that relationship is special. and that's it for me and the news team for the moment we'll be back with more for you at about thirty five minutes from now in the meantime with the latest from the front line of what he calls a financial wall it's max keiser and the cause report after the break.
