olympia moscow time as many as one hundred inmates reportedly ignited a hunger strike after abuse by guards with some prisoners and i was so sick it's reported that coughing up blood. for the u.k. proved strong is the territories overwhelmingly vote to remain british london comes under fire for being hypocritical in these overseas policies. pakistan may become the next target of u.s. economic sanctions for building a joint pipeline with iran in order to stable for the energy crisis but washington says it won't tolerate the deal despite its heralded alliance with islam a bad. thing

it's given a new central moscow tonight just a tad after eleven pm now our top story protest is against most of guantanamo bay's prisoners are on hunger strike according to lawyers for some inmates there several prisoners are said to be so sick indeed they are coughing up blood while others are being hospitalized and force fed through chews in their stomach. now on what's happening at the facility. more than one hundred on top of the detainees at the camp six prison there reportedly began their hunger strike approximately three weeks ago to protest what their lawyers say are conditions of confinement and the alleged confiscation and disapprobation of their personal items including the koran now the prisoners more of how for whom have been cleared for release told their attorneys that since early february get most already have been confiscating items including their razors their toothbrushes their books family photos letters and

legal mail now according to the center for constitutional rights authorities had also restricted exercise for the detainees seemingly without provocation or cause the prisoners also allege that arabic interpreters have desecrated their grounds when they have searched the holy books for contraband now one hundred sixty six men are still incarcerated at get mo and camp six houses around one hundred thirty prisoners those prisoners are considered ones that don't pose disciplinary problems and aren't regarded as a particular risk now according to attorneys everyone in that in that camp six prison except for the silk or the elderly is on a hunger strike in the center for constitutional rights says that they've received reports about the hunger strike detainees coughing up blood losing consciousness being hospitalized now being force fed and the sea is the center for constitutional rights says the situation is a rapidly deteriorating and reaching a potential critical level however robert duran the director of the public affairs

for the joint task force in kuantan m o denies claims of a mass hunger strike he says only nine detainees are engaged in hunger strikes five of whom are being fed through tubes inserted into their stomachs so clearly there's a discrepancy in the reports here but if we're going to listen to the civil rights attorneys and the all the attorneys representing these men it's more than a hundred of these prisoners that are now refusing food for more than three weeks this is deja vu. in many respects back in two thousand and eleven more than fifteen prisoners at guantanamo protested and went on hunger strike to protest indefinite detention order signed by u.s. president barack obama in two thousand and seven more than a dozen prisoners subjected. hunger strike and had to be force fed subsequently had to be force fed two thousand five hundred twenty eight detainees went on hunger strike for more than a month and in two thousand and two nearly two hundred inmates at guantanamo bay

went on hunger strike so clearly this is a pattern that continues repeating but it is quite a dangerous pattern because any human being that goes without food for a long period of time can in evidently lose their lives. in new york mates plight let's go to new york again we're joined by one of the lawyers involved william h. that part is covering he's an attorney for the center for constitutional rights representing. the yemeni detained ton of my father's side of the thank you for being with us i'm not sure if you heard our correspondents report there but. what is the situation at the moment regarding this hunger strike there's a discrepancy between what the authorities are saying what the inmates what is behind those walls. what we understand from our clients and this is coming from every attorney who has either get down to go into a most since february or has communicated with their client in some form either through letters or phone calls what we have heard from every one of them is that

there has been a hunger strike going on in camp six that one tunnel is the largest facility at guantanamo it holds over one hundred thirty detainees that there has been a hunger strike going on there among almost all of the men in that camp they have been refusing all through and drinking water and tea and coffee since early february and that this this is a situation that has been going on since as i said early february it seems to have been triggered by specifically by searches of immense korans which state perceived as religious just a creation there were searches of other personal items like your correspondence stash family letters family pictures personal items blankets pillows clothing like that those were the literal triggers we understand of the strike but this is against a broader faction background what we're hearing about more regressive practices that hark back to an older regime animal that the men very very much associate with

mistreatment and abuse so now that's right picture called is do we know what it would spoil. your describing the. we don't really know i'm going to spend a change in administration where it's not clear to us so what we had done last week was sent a letter on behalf of the attorneys who have received direct information asking questions recording what we have her heard from our clients to the authorities at once upon a mo and copying the department of justice asking for their their side of the story and to respond and essentially seeking a quick resolution to what's going on at this point the strike is more than thirty days old and by day forty five we understand from medical experts there are serious health repercussions that start happening things like loss of hearing intentional blindness and in a couple of weeks worse than that ultimately you know that the potential is there for death as well and if congress strikes continue for we process we've said we're

just no response about letters so far where some of the prisoners are being force fed by the authorities with choosing the stomach except if this goes on you just kind of touched on it yourself there was a gun away and you think people will carry it out to the various. you know we know i spoke to a client last thursday and he had been on strike for thirty days he had dropped over twenty pounds he is a diabetic his name is father paul behind me as you mentioned he's from yemen and if someone like him continues his strikes or once you three more weeks there are dire health repercussions ultimately you know just it is possible we hope that it doesn't get to that point but there needs to be a response from the administration beyond what we've heard in the press which is essentially just to deny that anything is really wrong about isn't a meaningful response and whether the numbers of strikers is one hundred thirty or

thirteen actually doesn't really matter there are men we understand from our from reports from our clients who are on strike who are now over a month into their stripes and there needs to be a meaningful response there really is and a time to waste in going back for. you know we need to understand what's going on and we need thirty response potus legacy a term approaches covering an attorney representing golub behind the yemeni detainee at guantanamo pre-show that well we've got another abuse scandal rocking going tell him we're asking what you think about this what you think is going to be the final straw to see the place close or is going to continue this what you're telling us the voting stands no sixty two percent going down a tad believe this other guantanamo will still stay open a fifth of you just about believe it's only going to close what america runs out of money to maintain it seventy percent. believe it to guantanamo will only be shut

down when another prison takes his place and standing firm the minority two percent of you believe his own to be closed down when worldwide terror is defeated how long is a bit of string r.t. dot com to cost your vote good to hear from you. falkland islanders of voted overwhelmingly to remain a british territory with only three votes going against the idea in a two day referendum the u.k. prime minister david cameron is called in argentina to respect the landslide result but what is are is maintained and stole the islands from two centuries ago the

continuing dispute see some critics questioning britain's overseas policies resulting sarah firth explains. protecting people's right to felt determine their own future and britons made a huge amount of movies and fuss over this when it comes to the folk and guidance referendum so you've got to read a lot of that today it's going to be in all the papers it's going to be on most of the nice channels a story you won't have heard about many years indeed might never have heard of is that of the che course i didn't snout the fact that you would have heard of it doesn't make it any less shocking cheik us idence possibly british indian i deceive territory and though grouping of violence the largest of which is diego garcia not many people know that as the last u.s. military air base from which we seen the us launch attacks on iraq and afghanistan but back in the one nine hundred sixty s. and that was home to a population of roughly the same as the folk in guidance around two thousand indigenous people that and the u.k.

struck a deal with the us which flew them get a discount on arms and saw the us get diego garcia for their military base and most of the population would they were forcibly evicted from their homes many of them would need to move rishis where they've looked out their dave in object poverty ever since and now we also have a number at the table side in this living here in the u.k. and i think what's even more shocking is that this isn't the passing justice this is something that people white up till today the government of today is still fighting the takeoff's islanders right to return home it's very shameful governance in britain. if britain is to great itself around the world supporting the rights of self-determination of those the four gardens and what about the rights to try to solve this now i think what side this about that story is that many of the to go see and say here in the u.k. now old spirited women he simply want the right to return home and he put that in

stark contrast with what's happening in the filter and violence right now on the one hand you had put it fighting. spending huge amounts of money sending troops to defend this that eva sees how she does colony against argentina's claim and on the other hand you have been spending equal amounts of money to stop to take a fight and this from retiring to their home to the contrast really is very stark a tale that he widens really and how very different we seem to take a side and is treated to the folks in the island as opposes national position so it's a very traditional bucci who told me argentina can find itself out of his death if the dispute is militarized. it's like asking the old far right wing israeli settlers on the west bank whether they want to continue being israeli or they want to become palestinian maybe they should open up immigration if you have twenty or thirty thousand argentinian settle there there we can have another referendum and see what happens as far as argentina's concern just as argentina made a serious serious mistake in one thousand nine hundred two to take on britain and

the united states it is also making a rather a ridiculous of making a fool of itself with its claims now because argentina has no military prowess or credibility whatsoever so britain in a way are laughing their way as they. seek out against an exploit this oil though sixty six or sixty some odd billion barrels are just a rough estimate but the whole continental shelf which is very shallow or on the floor but a mild venus seems to have really huge oil reserves and on top of that it is in an area which is not the hot spot for the united states and britain as the middle east is. reporting center not yandex goes for the jackpot again russia's premier search engine hits the new york stock exchange for a second time hoping to repeat a stellar showing two years ago it's coming right up soon. to germany public monies being frozen all sorts of weird and wonderful projects we discovered that's got taxpayers are asking for really getting value for money well after this break.

pakistan could soon become a victim of american sanctions aimed at iran's energy sector the u.s. is threatening tennille tease after the launch of a joint iranian pakistani gas pipeline could be a fresh blow them to be already fragile relations between washington and islamabad we should be deteriorating over those mass civilian casualties caused by u.s. drone strikes. and explains why the risk of sanctions isn't though preventing pakistan from pushing ahead with this pipeline plans. by this time these are obviously a very big troubles and very short to be shortish and you know three or six hours there have been

a lot of meetings between the americans and by the spanish when this issue will be back stateside has already demanded it by the americans to help them out on the no g. eight to solve the energy crisis that they're facing since a few years they have been only a promise from the american side but they have said that we want to solve the problems even if we go with the iranians in spite of the sentence so there is a bit diminish as bite me but these are the leadership in pakistan to call for this after long debate between the pakistanis and the u.s. which led to where i think are a should president of the lobbying group back nationalists for i'm told is the u.s. will proceed with threats as long as it needs pakistan's assistance in the region. the united states does not have much options when it comes to pakistan they need to box down for the withdrawal of american troops and other nato troops from afghanistan and pakistan is the only way out and as long as they need this route

it is not expected that washington will really force the head with the with the imposition of sanctions in pakistan but they would still it makes sense for them to make these statements right now in order to maintain and sustain the pressure on the iranian government and of course for the for the overall purpose of meeting their policy guidelines with regards to iran. coming up u.s. troops serving abroad might soon finally see home sweet home the future of washington's extensive overseas military presence is and with experts believing recent reshuffles and obama's cabinet will see many soldiers heading home that stories in a few minutes. the fourth largest and one of the fastest growing search engines in the world is hitting the new york stock exchange again russia's yandex plans to read more than half a billion dollars this time around selling seven percent of its shares are to go to prison off reports from the web giant's headquarters. russia's leading search

numbers on troop deployment around the world but you want to says boots on the ground in one hundred fifty countries that's around two hundred thousand troops. serving in the from parts of the world largest contingency include of course of ghana's than six to six thousand troops while that number is supposed to be half by the end of this year there you see vast presence in asia pacific japan south korea where the announced pivot to asia those numbers may actually grow in the gulf nations while you see kuwait bahrain the presence there has been growing since the withdrawal from iraq huge presence all across the globe so why all this this is more than fighting terror more than fighting anything colonel douglas macgregor is with me today to discuss all those wise colonel macgregor let's take germany almost forty thousand troops why so many in germany before we run through the regions let me tell your viewers something that's very important up front because all of these numbers that you've posted are about to change you have

a secretary of defense named chuck hagel and assertive st john kerry and both of these men are committed to conflict avoidant everything that you've got post is going to change starting in germany where we've had soldiers for sixty years and we don't need them and haven't needed them certainly since one thousand nine hundred ninety nine hundred ninety but for various reasons when the soviet state system collapsed in the soviet armed forces withdrew from eastern europe there were people in washington who set out to find new enemies new new justification or rationale for our global below troop presence and actually succeeded somewhat in expanding it as you pointed out with the global war on terrorism that period is no indeed what about this idea of. policing the world something that. that washington has been engaged in for for so long it has worked out it hasn't worked out has it it's

cost us trillions of dollars tens of thousands of laws it's cultivated new enemies it alienated hundreds of millions of people in key regions of the world so why would we continue to do that so these numbers are going to come down very very rapidly over the next thirty six to forty eight months and there are no forces in washington that would want to keep it the way it is of course but those are being drowned out by voices that say no we can't afford it we have to economize we have problems in the united states we must address and oh by the way as i just pointed out this hasn't worked out well for us thank you sir thank you the new chief of the cia john brennan when making a case for drones last year said boots on the ground would not always be america's best defense because they irritate the local population create a lot of backlash as if the drones don't but nevertheless even the new drone base is that the u.s. is setting up in different countries require troops on the ground to operate them recently president obama announced the deployment of one hundred troops in new

shares so even this paper to drones doesn't mean no troops in washington i'm going to check out. as many you know nations continue to struggle in the economic crisis sweeping the bloc germany remains year was biggest and most stable economy but some rather eccentric government investments and calling this reputation into question on his roof national takes a look at where the money is going do you know where tax money goes tax the tea pay in this country not really precisely not really. i know it's going in the projects i would hope that they will invest money into schools and we'll give it to disadvantaged families would you be willing to sponsor a study on the educational benefits of comics or invest in virtual reality three d. software for yachts or how about buying into the production of purple carrots most wouldn't but these people are and most of them don't even know it. i text base

oscar for best visual effects effects to you that made the movie look so amazing for them and hughes has filed for bankruptcy quickly after the film's release you know that seems like a bit of a discrepancy i mean the group that made the best visual effects in the world in two thousand and thirteen is flat broke how can that be this reminds me of how the lead creators of call of duty modern warfare two were let go directly after the release of the game which to date is the eighth highest grossing video game of all time this was done supposedly to dodge paying them the royalties that they you know earned through hard work the problem is that we live in a world where only the bottom line count making as much profit as you possibly can damn the consequences it's just good business practice they say well it might be profitable but it's bad for society and it's very bad for visual effects and videogame artists but that's just my opinion.
