in the very heart of moscow. korea on a collision course of the u.n. says the crisis has gone too far as the north winds up an old nuclear site while america's military urges closer to the peninsula. rise brigs on an israeli prisons over the death of a palestinian inmate who was allegedly refuse lifesaving cancer treatment. environmentalist's the sound of the alarm over america's outdated oil pipeline network and the industry's future projects as and kobold tom recovers from tons of crude oil spilled onto its street. and from signing up for free speech to running for office so we can be said to juliet and sunset his eyes on joining australia's parliament his campaign director tells our t.v. what the whistleblowers got in mind.

is seven pm here in the russian capital you're watching are live with me tom would say the u.n. says north korea is on a collision course with the world community with its recurrent of threats against washington and seoul kyung yang declared a state of war with the south involved to restart its main nuclear reactor in response to you when sanctions meanwhile soaring tensions led the u.s. to position military hardware of the north has caused including a warship in a sea base rate a platform south korea says it will retaliate if it's attacked earlier i spoke to seoul based correspondent james of came who says america's geopolitics in the region is what's behind pyongyang's fiery rhetoric. in terms of people in the capital in seoul there's not much reaction and much alarm as these threats and the rhetoric from north korea has been continuous throughout the years we've seen an

annual drills with south korea and the us that north korea has continuously condemned and denounced them but the u.s. and south korea continually do these drills so we can see that a lot of these rhetoric these harsh rhetoric that are coming out of north korea in pyongyang are in response to these these military exercises as we mentioned a warship has come on the korean coast and now north korea has said that it will restart its grant nuclear reactor so we see that a lot of what the threats that are coming out of kenya are in reaction to the actions of the u.s. and south korea those of us i just want to quickly just ask you this pyongyang has made similar threats many times in the past and analysts tend to question the seriousness of these warnings why is that such a media hype over them this time around there is a lot of media hype in terms of western media with what north korea is currently

doing right now and we have to actually see this as something that the u.s. perhaps is maybe thinking about in terms of their rebalancing to east asia they are technically trying to get back into east asia to be able to counter china and its growing powers in terms of the economy and why not use north korea north korea is a threat in what it says is a threat and so they are using this opportunity to be able to rebalance its military as well as its presence here to be able to continuously monitor and gain more influence in the region. now for more insight into this developing story i'm joined here in the studio by our correspondent he's one of the few journalists who's actually been able to report from north korea and i see there's been plenty of you know empty south korean sentiment and rhetoric coming from pyongyang but do you think the ordinary people in north korea feel the same way as their government

does to be honest with you i haven't had a chance to talk to many ordinary people six years ago when i was there in north korea but i don't think the situation has changed i talk to the officials there and i didn't hear a single negative word towards south korea i got a feeling that this was more about north korea versus the west and the u.s. and the civilized countries of the west rather than being against the neighbors. and i was and i thought back then i still stand by that by this thought that this conflict between the two koreas is more about something inspired from abroad rather than being an internal issue between the people of the two korean of the two koreas i mean they're very close they used to be one country they used to be one empire they are divided politically by the thirtieth barrel they're not divided by any other way so i don't think there actually is so much as hostile as everyone wants them to believe let's talk about these new leaders they just immersion out of both south and north a young what's your impression on north korea's kim mean he he's come people have

said he's coming to change the is he really going to do things already changing you know we saw google officials in pyongyang unthinkable just five six years ago we saw dennis rodman i mean it's just maybe just a show but still he wants to show that he wants to be more open than his dad and his predecessor his granddad who was also a power he recently said he likes american computers mark computers you know imagine somebody saying like that's always seems quite young i mean he likes pop culture he seems pretty in touch with what's going on right now but you know what when you when i like is clearly the man in his mid thirty's he's interested in everything out. putting the world in particular technologies he said that the country needs to embrace the technology north korea already has internet north korea doesn't. confiscate cell phones from foreigners at the passport control like they used to do before this is a major change to what used to be for the question is whether kim jong un will be the man to reunite careers and not to go to

a full out war with herself let's talk about that a little bit their rhetoric this harsh rhetoric that's been going back and forth between the two koreas how likely is going to come out of that if you ask me i don't believe anything will happen anything bad will happen any war there might be some tension there might be some border clashes nothing more than that as long as china plays such an important role in the region china is basically dictating what happens there and what doesn't happen there it's quite strange to see that the u.s. doesn't want to become china and china to become the sole and the most important to go c.e.o. to between the two koreas because china doesn't want this war it would damage its infrastructure china's already involved in many projects with the south korea so as long as china is there there will be no war and china's position on that has been firm and strong there will be no let's talk about reunification just a little bit on that is that likely to happen do you see that happening in the near future well as i've said the greens from the south in the north are much closer than many people in the world i mean they're even close to that let's say english

the english and the irish they were one people they're divided politically divided by historical precedent by historic event i think reunification may happen the question is whether you and me will live to see it but i think it's it's possible that is the main question will we ever get to see that in our lifetime thank you very much. joining me here in the studio giving some light in his experience in north korea. riots have broken out in several israeli prisons over the death of a palestinian inmate myself day while serving a life sentence and had throat cancer palestinian officials there say israel. if used to give them blind told treatment but israel insists that it did offer an early release but it was already too late has the story he started feeling ill last summer and he has asked the authorities for check ups but they basically have done those check ups but never told him exactly what was happening and even though the man was obviously lost more than fifteen kilos in less than two months they still

kept him in the dark as well as his family until they've told him just in march of this year that he had terminal cancer and literally had to live so the minister for prison affairs of the palestinian authority has already said that israeli actions in this instance are heinous because. the prisoner did not receive timely medical help and he also called for an international investigation into the death of up to him via now of course this is something that left a lot of palestinians incredibly angry in fact we would give expect protests throughout several cities of palestinian authority but we do know at this point that in several israeli jails palestinian prisoners already staging. actions of protests there are throwing things around and burying on their cell doors because this is not the first time that something like this has happened just in february another palestinian inmate just thirty years old died of an apparent heart attack

was in jail since two thousand and two he was in prison on charges of conspiring with hamas terrorists and he was sentenced to ninety nine years in prison and i was really viciously that they have sent in the people for the for the early release of a due to his ailing health but unfortunately he died before that appeal could be processed by the israeli officials. let's get some more insight on this story with francis as she's the head of a palestinian ngo that supports the rights of prisoners miss runs our channel has obtained a statement from the israeli prime minister's office saying that. i did get special medical help and was due for parole before the time of his death if this is true can israel be blamed for his death good evening i think the issue here is the police see that is used against the palestinian political prisoners in systematic way actually and this is the health

neglect and i wasn't complaining just in the last two months or three months he was complaining about different symptoms and illness since two thousand and seven actually and the delay in doing analysis and checks and they are going no stick for his sickness. his this today and this is what we are claiming the israeli prison system actually the whole policy of the health treatment in the prison service is lacking properly the correct treatment incorrect actually. the no harm day was sentenced to life in prison for his alleged involvement in two thousand into the bomb plot in the solidarity towards him justified given that he is a convicted terrorist. i think it doesn't matter what he was convicted with the fact that he was trialed and

imprisoned he deserved to be treated properly according to the international standards of the three men of prisoners that any prisoner should get inside any prison actually and is royal is the signature e to these international conventions and international treatments actually should offer these standards in their prison so i think the solidarity is with the fact that the sick prisoner wasn't getting proper treatment incorrect. let's talk a little bit about these international laws that you say israel has breached. roughly four thousand palestinian prisoners in israel and many have been administrative detention without charge or trial is this breaking international law . of course this is violation of the international law now currently there is more than four thousand nine hundred

palestinian prisoners in that is royally prisons some of them are around two hundred they are admin sort of detainees and this is a relation for the international low though the fourth geneva convention offers the option to use admin sort of detention but for very limited short period which is royal is they relating actually and they are arresting administrative detainees for many years because the order could be renewed indefinitely and actually also the procedures in the military courts that the palestinians are subjected to they are of a relating the fair trial standards and the definitions of the drawings they are not limiting themselves to the definition of the international low that offers the occupiers actually they include any current of political activism as illegal activity activities and drawings and out of these military courts including sometimes offenses related to traffic that is not related to the occupiers and the

military court system so the whole system actually as they relate to the international law especially the fourth geneva convention what's been the reaction from the israeli public about this. unfortunately in the latest years there is no much reaction from the is that oily mess public in these issues of course there are human rights in geos loyally n.g.o.s that they would be condemning and of course following these cases and small groups of activists that they would be supporters to the polls today and close but in general i think almost over there is that all your community would believe that this person was a terrorist and he obviously deserved to be dying so france is a head of the admi a prison a support association thank you for your time and your insight. on the way made

in america we were told to call you a student of plant the nation by has done control regulations by crafting weapons in the comfort of their own homes that have been washed in the big. old. technology innovation all the developments around russia we've got the future are covered.

about international and in the very heart of moscow. thank you for staying with us you're watching our t.v. they do mara mental damage from a mess of oil spill in and canceled tom is becoming clear on of cleanup efforts of the continuum the residential area was swamped with thousands of barrels of crude when a pipeline burst last friday dozens of homes had to be evacuated and more details now from granite she sure can. exxon mobil is naturally trying to downplay

environmental concerns they're not saying exactly how much oil spilled onto the streets of that neighborhood in arkansas but the company says it has already collected more than twelve thousand barrels of oil mixed with water from the affected area not clear how much of it was water the twenty three homes were evacuated there as they're still cleaning up the pipeline that was carrying canadian heavy crude to the south of the u.s. this is the country's gulf coast with fineries this latest spill response from critics of the proposed keystone x.l. my money he's done x.l. pipeline would carry eight hundred thousand barrels per day just to compare the pipe that leaked in arkansas can carry around ninety thousand barrels a day so the consequences of a leak could be devastating the keystone pipeline would also carry canadian heavy crudes to u.s. refineries in the south the project doesn't have the final green light from the administration just yet but the oil giants involved are pushing the administration very hard to go ahead with that saying it will bring down fuel costs in the u.s.

trans canada first keystone line was spilled the a dozen times just in its first year of operation the company of course says the new keystone x.l. will be so much better but people know from experience how devastating consequences of an oil spill can be and how hard it is to clean up this is certainly not the first incident of course everyone remembers the disaster in the gulf of mexico in twenty ten when after an explosion and he had been leaking oil on the ocean floor for several months before the well was tapped an estimated four point nine million barrels of oil had leaped into the gulf that three years later the call is still not free in july two thousand and ten a pipeline brought chirps more than twenty thousand barrels of canadian tar sands crude oil into the michigan waterway so this happens all the time just last week the government suggested at some. robel paid a fine of one point seven million dollars over pipeline safety violations and that

was for an oil spill two years ago in the yellowstone river in montana exxon has a month to contest the violations many believe that the world trying to get away with violations like that all too often in the west and all it takes is a team of really good lawyers to do that which the company certainly have and at the end of the day it's the people of turkey will pick up the slack in washington and the nature. of the accident has reignited the debate over the use of decades old pipelines to transport increasingly large amounts of crude oil across north america let's all take a look at the continent's oil transit infrastructure now more than half of america's all routes were building the nineteen fifties and sixties that's according to the u.s. department of transportation some including the pegasus pipeline which caused trouble in a console we constructed even before that billions of dollars worth of oil flows

through these pipelines every year now in twenty eleven five of the industry giants acts or more war royal dutch shell b.p. conoco phillips and chevron have combined a combined revenue of nearly two trillion dollars congress says the turnover is equal to more than ten percent of u.s. g.d.p. but despite the huge profits the government and corporations are cutting corners when it comes to repairing and renewing infrastructure environmental consultant richard steiner's says the console pipeline has long passed its use by date. there's no excuse whatsoever for oil pipelines to be anything over thirty years old or general design life is maybe twenty to thirty years there's been several spills about six or seven of this heavy deluded bitumen it's called dil bit which is the tar sand oil which is so thick it can't be transported through a pipeline unless it's cut with condensate and benzene exxon has shown time and

time again that they are not willing to accept responsibility legitimate financial responsibility for their actions however negligent they are they got out of the alaska spell with you know about a billion dollars paid to private thirty thousand private litigants and that should have been by many of their estimations much much more than that so they have a history of short changing responses. we had leaks at attention in a sancerre maybe holed up in an embassy in london but that's not stopping him running for election in his home country australia a fund has appointed a high profile political campaign and to spearhead his bid for a seat in the australian senate a son has spent the last nine months going to point to the ecuadorian embassy in britain where he's avoiding extradition to sweden for questioning over the sex crime allegations if he is absentee election bid is successful he would be sworn in as a senator in july twenty fourth teen blood would have to return to canberra to do that

his campaign is being led by greg barnes a formal barrister and head of the stream and republican movement he's led the sunday as we can exe party him to bring transparency to the government and insists that it has a realistic chance of victory. they certainly stand for in a strike in which is effectively the house of review in the australian parliamentary system using that more effectively to keep government honest about what it's doing and so not simply rubber stamping government policy using the senate as a house review to ensure that jack all of audible documentation in relation to policies tie between the parliament not that we see. points of my appointment set of government appointments of mike that they scrutinize properly but also ensuring that we start to roll back some of the security measures that have been boarding minister idea in a post nine eleven environment where you've seen major inversions by the security

services us in australia into the lives of ordinary australians there are six senators who will be elected out of the curia one of the strikes destroyed he's got to get fourteen point two nine percent of the vote in order to get elected now with a preferential system which is of the party's preference in julian assange. if he gets six to seven percent of the rule five he said going to get elected at the moment he's polling around about twenty five to twenty seven percent that he's twenty five to twenty seven. of a strange sight i would vote for julian assange actually starting from a very high price which is going to come down a bit in the context of the campaign but it's a very good place to start. to the u.s. now with the gun control debate has focused on the want type of all americans are allowed to obtain and and oh thanks to a groundbreaking technology and tie a gun pods can now be many factions without a license when u.s. students working to make sure everyone can make a weapon at home as marrying up what my explaining. from the state of the union in

youngstown a while we're no workers are mastering the three d. printing but has the potential to revolutionize the way we make almost everything to a store in soho new york three d. printing technology has officially gone mainstream the demand is much greater than our supply right now and we're actually ramping up and expanding rapidly to meet that demand this three d. printing company maker bot opened its first retail store last year it is selling its newly released replicator to desktop for just under twenty two hundred dollars using a plastic material the machine deposits ultra thin layers to form any object that can be molded in software welcome to the world of independent manufacturing so this stretch bracelet took about sixteen minutes to make but other objects that are a bit bigger like this cupcake gift box took about fifteen hours of printing now while the time a very anyone with a three d.

desktop printer can essentially make anything that they want our website thing on earth is a repast atari for three d. printed items we have more than forty thousand items on the thing over that are free and downloadable and one of our terms of service is that you cannot upload anything that is to go back up and. this is where twenty five year old cody wilson enters the picture a group of friends and i started a project called defense distributed. we want to use a three d. printer to print a gun to release the files open source the texas law student has already printed a thirty round magazine and lower receiver that houses the bolt for an ar fifteen and he's reportedly working on completing a rifle with a three d. printer his blueprints for guns and gun parts are distributed for free on his website but i'm doing is showing people ok this is something that can be done right now. right now the self described. market after cast has thrown

a major reds into america's gun control debate as a national conversation it was a debate that started in december after twenty children and six adults were shot dead at a connecticut elementary school overwhelming majorities of americans americans who believe in the second amendment have come together around common sense reform by background checks that will make it harder for criminals to get their hands on a gun meanwhile just last month wilson became a federally licensed gun manufacturer and dealer there bypassing the debate there rendering the debate irrelevant whatever laws can make about of this discussion the sort of ability to manufacture objects and bodies firearms on a localized centralized basis means of the law really won't matter the law may say that something is illegal but if you can turn to a device that's on your desktop and manufacture that at will with nobody knowing that you've done so then the law doesn't matter at all with a reported three hundred million guns in circulation the u.s.

has the highest rate of gun ownership in the world and the second highest rate of deaths by firearms among industrialized nations. and just as lawmakers are finalizing new legislation that would tighten the nation's all too easy access to firearms. experts question that technology will ultimately outpace their meager efforts at gun control. r.t. new york. on the way another thirty minutes of story that flies through the spin it's baking the things. you know when the history of any culture there are some dark chapters throughout

human history there's been war on every continent and religious strife and oppression every culture has some skeletons in their closet and in recent u.s. history the scandalous prison at guantanamo bay as making patriotic americans scurrying around a decade or so rather than slamming the door shut on get mall i hate that term condemning it as one of the greatest mistakes in american history and gloriously declaring on t.v. channels and newspapers the country wide that it shall never be repeated again the pentagon instead wants to blow another forty nine million dollars expanding it even if you are one of the types of things that american gulags are supercool and awesome do you realize it takes over one million dollars per year per prisoner to keep the place open are you sure you don't want that money to go towards something else like your children's education the thing that burns me up about this the most is that obama promised if elected to close guantanamo bay and as commander in chief of the armed forces he could do this whatever he wanted no amount of filibustering

by the republicans could stop him obama you promised hundreds of millions of people to do something very simple start the paper work tomorrow buddy make the nation look better that's your job but that's just my opinion. thank you.

the good international and world in the very heart of moscow. to live on one hundred thirty three bucks a month for food. if you know how fabulous bad luck i got so. i mean the town finally has i'm sufficiently really messed up. in the for so personally apologize to the second. worst sugarloaf in the white house to give it to.
