a fierce shootout to that saw a man who kept boston on the edge of four days court and taken into custody and then nine year old suspect in monday's deadly marathon bombings was seriously injured in the standoff with police and is now in a critical condition artie's honest to see it was at the scene. after what has been a week that seems to have lasted an eternity f.b.i. officials as well as local law enforcement were finally able to arrest and take into custody nineteen year old just outside nine of the second suspect in the boston bombings case of course on monday afternoon two bombs went off seconds apart from each other at the finishing line of the boston marathon and this entire week there has been a manhunt after the two brothers that were seen as suspects in this case now this friday night officials were able to find the younger brother who was in hiding in a dry docked boat in the town of watertown just minutes away from boston

a local had informed officials that he had seen a man covered in blood and they were able to through a helicopter that had that had heat signature technologies to be able to track down the young man even though he was covered up in the boat standoff between him and the police lasted for several hours and eventually they were able to arrest him and take into custody we do know that he is in serious medical condition and has been taken to a hospital in boston now to talk a little bit more about the identities of the two brothers of course we're talking about twenty six year old and a nineteen year old who have lived in the united states since two thousand and three the older brother twenty six year old to milan died last night in a shootout with police he had a green card the younger brother was a nationalized citizen they have been living in the united states for the last ten years and their colleagues and friends and former schoolmates acted shocked when they found out that these two brothers were behind the boston tragedy we do know

that the f.b.i. in two thousand and eleven upon request of a foreign government had taken the older twenty six year old brother in for questioning trying to establish whether or not he had any links to extremist groups the united states president of course barack obama has addressed the nation really thinking cooperation and. questioning really the fact that somebody who was brought up in the united states of course the brothers have been here for the last ten years was able to commit such a horrific act and the latest for now is that the younger brother that is now in custody is going to be treated for any kind of injuries that he had there are reports that he had a lot on him and officials have confirmed that he was in fact are seriously injured so he will be treated now and then the legal part of this case will certainly move forward and. boston massachusetts. and also

collecting the latest news accounts and images related to the boston manhunt check out the photo section to get more of an idea on how events unfolded and the reaction when the terror suspect was finally captured the fallout of the boston bombings took on a broader international scope off to the alleged perpetrators were reported to be from russia's north caucasus region but the suspects mother says that her children had nothing to do with terrorism and had been set up by the f.b.i. i'm. going to find out more about the family's background. the investigation into the background of this have knives brothers has brought us here to this part of the capital of dagestan now this is the house where their parents live however as we try to reach them this morning it turned out that they fled to the neighboring region of change to their relatives to avoid all the attention meanwhile this morning i managed to speak to the mother of the two brothers and she

told me how devastated she is and that she still can't believe that her sons may have been involved in the bore me in our how nobody talked about. my. record or got involved in. you know i. really do. five years ago he was told by a b i like fly by he knew that they knew what my doing they knew what action. he would go in how could that happen how could they were can't go and. marry her this is not my. son i always done. everything. everything. my son used to call me and ask me how are you mama both of them mom i will love you mom how will we meet you. those neighbors we spoke to our

shox they said that it was a very nice and a very quiet family. i know the brothers very well from the childhood we used to live in chechnya together i was the neighbor then we moved here i know they couldn't have carried out the attack and they couldn't have been involved in it they spent most of their lives in the us study that they didn't have any links with the hobbyists and other militants. some of them even remember the brothers especially the older one time let alone when he visited. here so basically the whole neighborhood is just in shock after the revelation that the alleged bombers away from russia's north caucuses moscow has want against dividing terrorism and to domestic and foreign new york's former mayor rudy giuliani has already admitted that the attack was a result of washington's reluctance to admit that the chechen extremism is not just

russia's headache. reports. when news broke of an unexpected north caucasus traced to the boston bombings literally every global media outlet was quick to put the word into their headlines told by a source that they fled the russian caucus to chechnya he is an ethnic chechen brothers are said to be ethnic chechens lived in kurdistan and darkest hour before coming to the u.s. the two suspects were branded as coming from a russian region close to chechnya indeed many may need reminding of the name and location of republic of the good stand where the two supposedly came from but the word certainly rings bells probably because of the media headlines in the one thousand nine hundred and at the beginning of the new millennium that's when russia had a military operation in the north caucasus. russian troops deployed in the republic can finally be drawn the rebels fighting for independence all go have been trying to get reduced it to the scores the church of independence could no become the

ultimate you can't that conflict often went beyond the borders of the chechen republic let's remember apartment buildings bombed in moscow a theater siege in the russian capital and a school takeover in russia's north thousands of civilians were killed but the man who had blood on their hands were often described as freedom fighters and rebels by the western media at times it even sounded like a romantic image the reality is that in the north caucasus russia has been fighting the same war which america embarked upon after the twin towers were brought down against global terrorism moscow never made a secret that those fighting on the side of the chechen militants were closely tied to al qaeda and were financed from abroad by terrorist organizations worldwide but it's only after nine eleven the transport bombings in madrid and london that understanding the notion that terrorism has no nationality has started to appear in the global media from freedom fighters to armed dangerous terrorists most wanted man in america years have passed media labels have changed the question is whether it change in attitude towards a common enemy will follow in due course. and it looks like of that change is

a step of close to both russia and the us have agreed to be anti terrorism after it has gone to recent cooling and relations security expert john get out says that washington should first of all abandon its policy of sheltering chechen separatists driven by a cold war stereotypes since the collapse of the soviet union it is summer one thousand nine hundred one the united states has continued to deal with russian issues based on its old cold war paradigm and to a large degree the us regionally came out in support of the chechen cause for independence it was the enemy of my enemy is my friend paradigm and the russians continue to be perceived as it is inherently bad inherently evil if you will going back to the soviet era and the american perspective was that any group of people trying to rescue their independence from russia therefore must be

good and this all a significant measure of u.s. government will support even to the extent of providing political asylum to one of the chechen leaders who was at the time under indictment for terrorism in russia. and the czech republic has someone unwillingly and undeservedly become tangled up in the terror attack after the internet lit up in the confusion over exactly where and even what chechnya was the small mountain region ended up being wildly mistaken for the czech republic a member of the european union and a close ally of the united states this was especially apparent on social media sites as the twitter posts here right in fact it goes are so bad that the government to step in to stamp out of the confusion it's ambassador to the united states released a letter mourning the boston tragedy and of the casualties but make it quite clear that the czech republic is an unrelated country in an office self and quite apart

from the federal region of chechnya national security is as something washington has been pouring billions of dollars into since the notorious nine eleven attacks but as artie's marina partner reports in the wake of the boston bombings the effectiveness of this massive spending is now being questioned. in a post nine eleven america washington has taken wide reaching measures and defense friend spending has hit unprecedented levels because officials say that's what was needed to keep america safe the department of homeland security was created along with many other law enforcement agencies the patriot act was passed sent up a very complex and far reaching surveillance system which includes c.c.t.v. cameras in major cities facial recognition iris scanning cyber surveillance and officials say this was all to keep americans safe as was the passage of the

national defense authorization act in addition to all the measures that have been taken domestically over the past twelve years america has waged two wars overseas that across the country more than two trillion dollars but after the events that unfolded about boston marathon bombings many critics believe that washington has spent a large amount of money and wasted a lot of resources and at the end of the day it has not kept americans any safer. this illusion that technology is going to save us that filling our status with drones and covering our buildings with surveillance cameras and treating every airport airline passenger as an intentional terrorist just going to save us is to use an incredible delusion i mean the cause is that dead are possible here range incredible inequality in our society the promotion of violence in our society the

idea that we're going to continue on the course we're on in these terms and then save ourselves through technology. is an incredibly misguided delusion it's just not going to have earlier this week u.s. secretary of state john kerry insisted that that america's investment in front policy is national security insurance. and by making the right small investments upfront kerry insisted that costly conflicts can be avoided in the future but as this past week has shown the cost of pressure cookers does not amount to a lot of money and washington's investment or was it enough to prevent a deadly terrorist attack in boston that claimed the lives of three people and hospitalized more than one hundred seventy reporting from new york. r.t. the suspected terrorists came to the u.s. about a decade ago and were both granted asylum and for more on why the controversial

refugees that able to find safe havens in the united states and some of its key allies such as britain has artie's a cell for many high profile cases here did it been an immigration. headache for the u.k. see if we have a case with the political leader he fled to the k. in two thousand and. nine he's one thing by russia all that's a terrorism to. kidnap and murder and he's been continually refused extradition by the u.k. another has just been one high profile case another dimension is that of a kid's father who was once described as a solid bin laden's right hand man in europe now he's proven a huge immigration and asylum nightmare for the really and i think cases such as these that have been on going where you have people coming in on the side and

seeking asylum and being granted asylum but with very questionable backgrounds and then of course who actually then they go to play the system a very successfully is going to raise a lot of questions and certainly as i said this debate is going to be once again sparked by the recent events. if you have your own opinion on how the boston bombing investigation will unfold i had to r.t. dot com a to cost you a vote in our poll let's take a look right now as to what you are saying right so far sixty three percent of you majority of you believe that the truth will never be revealed as the second suspect will die in hospital a bit less and their blood twenty percent of the seventy percent they think that the brothers were acting on their own eleven percent to believe that investigators a will fly the ringleader behind the attacks and only had nine percent believe that the mastermind will be revealed in time so head to our web site at r.t.

also want a different political system now the amber province course has been the heart of the insurgency and the war now it's the heart of the anti-government protest perhaps a fault line of sorts that threatens to divide iraq let's go and talk to some of the people. who don't believe in this election we don't believe in it because it's sectarian sectarian sectarian. the government system is unjust which is why we are promising here we are demanding change to the constitution and this government. these people will not be turning out to vote for saturday's provincial elections that's the first election since americans have left from the country in december of one to eleven the government has postponed elections and several sunni provinces the anbar province where we're located right now as well as within a province the government says this is because of security and indeed attacks have

been escalating over the past weeks and months but most of the iraqis that you speak to here say that this is not the case it's politically motivated of course the recent weeks have proven just that a bloody backdrop to the elections numerous attacks all across the country have killed scores of civilians there's been political assassinations of candidates running for office would. gatherings have been targeted on thursday a car bomb took place in baghdad in the largely sunni area in a cafe internet shop where a lot of young people tended to go out it's a situation that's reflective of the state of iraq today a country that has been torn apart by war but doesn't seem to be and closer to healing the wounds in the divisions that have been unleashed during that occupation . tensions are high in bahrain ahead of sunday's formula one grand prix but note in anticipation of a dramatic race tens of thousands of programs from protesters across the country

are furious at the government hosting a beige a sports event despite the kingdom's poor human rights record demonstrators burned tires to block main roads and hurled petrol bombs they drive police who responded with tear gas protesters also demand of the f one management should cancel the main stage of the grand prix there's little hope this will happen though as the organizers believe the under as dozen pairs of red to the event security of human rights activists jihan cuz a room explains of the opposition is almost policy to influence the situation in the kingdom. being human rights activists unfortunately we don't have that much power to improve the situation what we can do is just to document the cases delivered to human rights organizations and spread the weirdness of being peaceful in the protests actually during the urgency security emergency law before two years very jean was arresting every person who was trying to talk and expose the

region. a sunni report came up with with this saying that the government should rehab elate torture victims they did not take a step in this so we as bravo to habitation organization tried to rehab alleviate the torture victims unfortunately the government is keeping pressure on us not to continue our job. rebel forces in syria say about hope western and arab countries meeting on saturday will grant them the arms that they need to get rid of present assad u.s. secretary of defense chuck hagel has already announced he'll put american boots on the ground in neighboring jordan as a first step to preventing chemical weapons of from getting into the wrong hands it's also recently emerged france and the u.k. have presented evidence to the u.n. of the use of nerve gas in syria that's now being looked at by u.s. intelligence agencies but a u.n. investigation into the claim as told with damascus and the international body

wrangling over which areas investigation should be able to visit the origins of area for national report ahead of the friends of syria meeting. the meeting in turkey comes when the situation around syria is heating up dramatically and the country's willingness to go are losing patience and well their gender is unclear the right indicators that a military solution could be discussed istanbul just ahead of the seventeen nation group conference britain and france informed the un but they have credible evidence that syria used chemical weapons at least once while the u.n. investigation over the issue is told two major european powers have stated that soil samples witness interviews and opposition sources prove nerve agents were used in and around the cities of aleppo homes and damascus it hasn't been specified which sites did it but president obama had earlier made it clear no matter who's going to utilize chemical weapons once it happens it'll be a red line and while u.s. officials have stressed the deterrent effect of such remarks many have taken it as

a clear signal of possible military intervention the mission in turkey also comes just days after america's defense secretary said around two hundred u.s. troops will be sense of jordan's border with syria to bolster jordan's training and defense capabilities as one jordanian minister later commented they have also been confirmed reports that the u.s. agreed to deploy to pay for it missile batteries at the border in response to detaining authorities and syrian opposition requests. in another significant twist the judge had a looser front the most attractive force fighting to topple assad recently confirmed it had links to al qaida something america claimed months before blacklist in the group as a terrorist organization but even after these revelations the head of the syrian national coalition them rela united political and military opposition groups and recognized by the majority of the friends of syria group referred to as druthers russia has warned the meeting in istanbul could have a negative effect in promoting dollars between the sides of the conflict ed in its
