where the action took place nineteen year old jokers of my of was cornered after a gun fight with police he's now in hospital in a critical condition he's in a situation of brings us the details from 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 technology 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 of the older twenty six year old brother in for questioning

trying to establish whether or not he had any leads to it stream missed groups in 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 blood on him and officials have confirmed that he was in fact seriously injured so he will be treated now and then the legal part of this case will certainly move forward and. boston massachusetts. some of the most dramatic and memorable pictures from friday to boston are of about to go home from us the news of the terror suspects captures that a wave of public euphoria through the boston area those dramatic images of the special photos section for you we can also see how the standoff unfolded as well

and the exclusive interview the mother of the two alleged bombers told pti that one of his sons had been hounded by the f.b.i. for several years but the way either of the brothers she told he could have been involved in a terrorist attack has been a caution of a to travel to drug a stun in south russia where the mother lives to find out more about the family's story. 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 bomb ink's not how nobody talked about it here or even my son. got involved in the.

you know i. really do believe that. he was told by. maybe i like. you knew what my. what what. how could happen how could they were conjoined they probably never ever heard. my answer and sent those neighbors we spoke to are the sharks 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 studied the works there they didn't have any links with the harvests and other militants the youngest brother john hart on

his plate of the social network spent back to mansion this school number one in the high school and none of those places where he used to study however here are very few people remember the sad lives brothers. of the family came to dagestan in september two thousand and one when the boys rolled into a school then they apparently managed to get papers to leave dagestan they left in less than a year they didn't spend a long time here and they didn't grow up they first entered the school together with their two sisters back in two thousand and one however for a very short period of time in two thousand and two they left to the united states . or russia special services are also stress of the boston bombing suspects of a very tenuous connection to russia lived there for many years as we are just now here's what a source in the russian intelligence said quote since the brothers did not reside in russia or a special services could not provide our foreign partners in any valuable intelligence saddam but russian special services services are still nonetheless

working closely with their american partners we got another quote as well saying quote we've established communications through the appropriate channels and our contacts will continue they were not. say now moscow warned against classing terrorism is either domestic or foreign right after it emerged that the alleged bombers have links to russia's north caucasus region and new york's former mayor rudy giuliani has already admitted that the u.s. has for a long time turned a blind eye to terrorism in the north caucasus western media has tended to portray the armed groups in the mountainous region as freedom fighters. that angle to the story. 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 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 dagestan 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 distance 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 and finally be drawn into rebels fighting for independence off go have been dramatically reduced about scores the church of independence had 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 mosco 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. yes can this not talk mostly to retired cia agent glenn karl is joining us on the line hi there glenn thanks for being with us tonight i mean it's thought the bombs used in boston were packed inside ordinary kona garden pressure cookers i.e. these bombs were put together for nothing more nothing much less than twenty dollars how worried should the authorities be about. well is there a surprise any one who's involved in terror terrorism work. for

a long time have been concerned that it only takes one person and almost no money to kill a lot of people being a terrorist is a low cost enterprise so that's not a surprise at all. this kind of. device has been on websites for a long time also and anybody can find anything on where these things are not a surprise versus a shot there happens to americans. happen on american soil. and hard to legislate against as you say i mean it's also thought that the explosives this type of print that was used is the kind of thing that al qaeda sometimes recommends to its english speaking followers any thoughts about. where they connected to a terrorist group. well it's it is known that this kind of. privately made improvised explosive device is described on an al

qaeda web site in english and appears i do not know that the terrorists in boston may have learned it that way but but this is a widely available kind of technique. so that doesn't prove that they would have direct associations with agents of a specific terrorist group that they sympathize with a certain cause and you know and peace to learn techniques from this kind of groups is clear but direct associations may actually be of secondary importance in any event because the fact is that they kill people when you tell with terrorists before you with terrorism before your experiences along what do you think it's very difficult to answer this question probably but what do you think drove these two to do this heinous crime that we that they're alleged of carrying out. yes well of course you and everyone except for the the now one surviving member are going to

speculate about this and they don't have firsthand knowledge but i think the narrative starting to become clear believe. the president of chechnya i think they're wrong actually when he said that. their nationality and their their upbringing was not relevant to what they've done here in america i think that's exactly the opposite of the case because when you rise to any country at age fifteen fundamentally you always remain culturally from or where you grew up so i think several things are at play and what motivated. particularly an elder who seems to have been the driving force first is that they are aggrieved to chechens and with a rightly or wrongly i'm not passing judgment on this the more they identified all of their websites and comments made to friends and associates in america with islam as being their defining characteristics i would say probably just position it's not

an opposition to the american culture as a whole is a way to find some identity and then clearly. the elder least in the last five years we are with and then started to identify with more radical elements of. islam which is in turmoil and all islam obviously a clear is not given to jihad violent jihad but a small fringe is responding to all sorts of turmoil and he seems to identify with that so i think those three things called a nation of the far america not a adjusting all that well frankly being an aggrieved chechen and identifying himself with a radical form of islam i think that's it the final twenty seconds push the time since not eleven america has been focusing very heavily on terrorism brought is wake up call to maybe focus more at home. oh no i don't think so the f.b.i. and all services are going very very are looking for any sherman stream destructive

i don't think it's a wake up call well call to all we will insert retired cia agents again call we appreciate your time things are going to see later. twenty two forty now moscow time i'll be back with more news that in just a couple of minutes. emission free cretaceous free transport chargers free. range from three to three stooges free.

old free broadcast quality video for your media projects for free medio don carty dot com. the book about international and war in the very heart of moscow. iraq's first election since u.s. combat troops pulled out it's been overshadowed by attacks reports of blasts and mortar fire near polling stations are mounting at the end of a campaign that's seen a spike in violence in recent weeks with more than

a dozen candidates assassinated and sick terror in tensions rising it doesn't look like the new beginning many had hoped for is to see catherine off and out in baghdad for us. there's been about a dozen small explosions in northern cities in iraq in three different areas as well as several rounds of mortar fire that have landed in several cities polling stations targeting polling stations south of baghdad we're hearing that there have been injuries but no casualties confirmed as of yet now this comes amid incredibly tight security restrictions here all across iraq even getting to the studios here in baghdad we have to pass multiple checkpoints and what these attacks indicate is that despite these security restrictions determined insurgents are still able to carry out waves of violence and of course this comes on the heel on the heels of numerous attacks that have rocked iraq in recent months and weeks now what we're hearing from voters here is that the corruption is really the number one concern

they feel that of corruption was addressed in these kinds of attacks wouldn't really be taking place so much well most of them happened blamed on the insurgency the revived insurgency of al qaida in iraq there are it's clear by talking to voters that there are plenty of other parties and political interests that are vested in this wave of violence and we do know that elections have been postponed in a third of iraq's provinces including the controversial ambar province where large scale demonstrations have been taking place over the past three months against this government we here at r.t. had a chance to get into a very difficult journey despite the roadblocks despite a ban on journalists to actually enter the area but we want to find out what the people there have to say about these elections and about the situation in iraq today and let's play you that report right now this is rather a dangerous area for me that's why i'm dressed like this i'm trying to not attract as much attention foreign journalists have been banned from covering these protests

from entering the anbar province altogether and al qaeda elements are still here in fact among the crowd you'll see from black flags later on when we go into to the crowd. which have been associated with al qaeda groups the protesters have been demanding more equality they feel like they've been discriminated by the shiite led government of nouri al maliki they want a change in power in politics they want more rights they want more quality they 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 protests 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 sick tarion sectarian.

that is full of the government the 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 twenty eleven the government has postponed elections and several sunni provinces the anbar province where we're located right now as well as the 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 political gatherings have been targeted on thursday a car bomb took place in baghdad in a largely sunni area in

a turning point for the rebels who expect their international backers to turn promises into action they want their western arab allies to provide the arms they need to topple the regime of bashar assad but the meeting comes against a backdrop of mounting concerns over extremist groups within the rebel ranks as are his real phenomena found. the meeting in turkey comes when the situation around syria is heating up dramatically and the countries will decide to go are losing patience and while the gender is unclear the right indicators of a military solution could be discussed at 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 to 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 homs and damascus it hasn't been specified which side did it but president obama had earlier made it clear no matter who is going to

utilize chemical weapons once it happens it will 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 a 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 sent to jordan's border with syria to both of jordan's training and defense capabilities as one jordanian minister later commented they have also been unconfirmed reports that the u.s. agreed to deploy to pace with missile batteries at the border his response today in authorities and syrian opposition requests in another significant twist the jackpot a looser front to the most effective force fighting to topple assad recently confirmed it had links to al qaida something america claimed months before blacklisting the group as a terrorist organization but even after these revelations the head of the syrian national coalition them rela uniting political and military opposition groups and recognized by the majority of the friends of syria group referred to as brothers

interesting twist there that russia had asked the americans to check out tama learn as soon as we know more about one we'll of course bring you some more details. terror attacks on u.s. soil of the green light for the controversial cybersecurity bill are up for discussion next say in the lace edition of breaking the set of the brain. oh no who lazy bureaucratic and trivial censorship strikes again but this time in russia a bill has been signed into law that will put fines on individuals and legal and to these for using vulgar in the media one major flaw of many with this is that they really don't know which words are going to be considered vulgar i guess these words

are so awful that they cannot even write them down i'm not naïve there has always been and will always be censorship but this where wordless is just silly there's a common expression on the russian internet that russian mainstream media connects up more and i was ation of society russian t.v. does have all the bloody violent action movies as well as scandalous talk shows which are kind of like freak shows and plenty of reality t.v. where young people pretty much act like subhuman animals in a cage they've got all that so the government is basically saying that if some guy on t.v. there are twenty people blooded limbs flying that that is totally ok for television unless they come out for bid swear while doing it you can show brainless materialistic dimwits sleeping and fighting with everything that moves on a reality show but if they say that one magic three letter russian word then it is over the line this is not a logical way to conduct censorship but that's just my opinion.
