international there in the very heart of moscow. today is news and the story is a shame for the week on our team the f b i reporters he gets a russian wiretap with one of the alleged boston terrorist talks jihad we look at why the u.s. might have dropped the ball and russia's warnings two years ago. the u.s. and britain cite evidence of the syrian government using chemical weapons that made accusations the rhetoric sounds all too familiar with the watch preceded western intervention in iraq. no jobs no hope the new grim figures prompt violence in spain while the e.u. why do despair leave iceland cool and joining the struggling union. and one hundred one tunnel prisoners are now on hunger strike at the official number of more than doubling since the military try to break the month long protest

by force. at seven pm here in moscow you're watching archies of the weekly with me to say. russia has reportedly given the f.b.i. the tape of a phone call between one of the boston bombing suspects and his mother where they discuss jihad is thought to have been secretly recorded twenty eleven year russia want the u.s. about one of the some not have brothers radical religious views the u.s. though founded nothing suspicious of making checks his or it is going to change again on why the f.b.i. might have failed to take proper action. in the wake of the boston bombings it's the f.b.i. now bombarded with questions how could they let the alleged boston bomber tamerlan to and i have go off the radar after they've been warned about him multiple times

over the last two years russia warrant not only the f.b.i. about tamerlan sinai have did they drop the ball the f.b.i. . dropped the ball his note for sure but they dropped the ball here there's no doubt about it she was on the radar and they let him go he's on the russians radar why wasn't he a fly on i don't want him or the russians right and did the united states ignore their warnings disrespect repeated warnings are longer and i have someone you tube page full of radical content friends driving a car with a license plate that reads their own east the number one all of this was missed it's possible that they were too down by some preconception of who would be a possible jihadi that they were not able to see something in front of them maybe they work thinking well if these guys are chechen you know they hate the russians they don't hate us politics may have been the reason why u.s. authorities failed to connect the dots on tom how long. another possibility is that

poor relations. between moscow and war she devalued the russian record something that the russian president says has to be fixed if we truly undertake a joint effort we will not suffer these blows and take such losses if you want more possible the u.s. authorities politicized the intelligence given the fact that russia's concerns had been ignored before yes amada the white head of the internationally recognized chechen terrorists. was given asylum and now lives in boston. russia is accused of heinous crimes against innocent people is still seen in the us as a chechen freedom fighter the odd part of this if anything we've been i'm not going to say sympathetic with them but we've certainly been critical of and how far he's gone in dealing with. so if anything they should they shouldn't have this anger at the united states many ask whether tom or lon may have learned about bomb making on his trip to russia but the answer could be much closer to home according to

a senior government official quote they got their instructions on how to make bombs from in church it is newsworthy to know that nobody has to travel anywhere or get any specific in person training from some expert somewhere in order to access instructions for making explosives when joe parts are not i if woke up this week he reportedly told the authorities that he and his brother were motivated by a desire to defend islam because of the wars in iraq and afghanistan many terrorists have tried to politicise their heinous acts but that doesn't change the fact that there are heartless killings when federal authorities look at intel on a potential extremist problem or political rather than purely law enforcement point of view that could be a recipe for future disasters in washington i'm going to stick around. that's a night of the alleged confession that the boston attacks were motivated by america's actions in the muslim world every ignited debate about u.s.

policies abroad the editor of antiwar dot com believes that getting involved in foreign conflicts has increased the terrorist threat at home. the fact that they cite u.s. foreign policy as a motivation in fact for their attack shouldn't really surprising every attack that wasn't an f.b.i. use hatched sting operation since nine eleven has had that component all of these terrorists that want to attack the united states and commit heinous violence on us have in their mind some motivation of u.s. foreign policy u.s. aggression in the middle east you know in a rock in afghanistan and pakistan and yemen is real palestine conflict and on and on and on a lot of what obama has done in terms of trying to be less aggressive towards the muslim world to simply make his own secret we could bush administration is quite open obama has chosen to make all of this covert he's done the drone war which is

a secret war that nobody will admit to in pakistan or in yemen and somalia a lot of this is still going on and he's still generating fierce hatred from a lot of people who resent u.s. aggression the mother of the boston marathon bombing suspects was added to a federal terrorism database eighteen months before the attack american officials revealed that detail of the shakey's police of murdering her eldest son. i was told he was white. my. god oh but artie dot com find out how she bases accusations on the inconsistency from the authorities account of the manhunt for the sun my brother's. britain and the us to this week of this growing evidence that the syrian government has used chemical weapons the u.s. has warned that the use of such arms crosses

a red line israel's already called for intervention by the u.n. said the assertions did not meet its standard of approved while i was experts say witness a confidant tally with the effects of the weapons its story and general horne says so we've seen this kind of rhetoric before. it's deja vu all over again we will remember the disaster as an adventurous so u.s. and british invasion of iraq in two thousand and three based on teaspoon allegations really weapons of mass destruction that proved to be faulty of therefore we must ask some very difficult and searching questions for example what was the chain of custody with regard to the samples taken from the battlefield of syria to laboratories in wonder and in washington was there or was there the possibility of contamination or foul play or hanky panky with the samples and how can you show that the regime rather than the rebels actually used these alleged

chemical weapons and since we already know the next secretary of divisions within the military is driving the conflict in both syria and iraq how do we know that someone a gay soldier in the syrian military who is actually collaborating with the rebels watch these chemical weapons so i asked to provide a rationale for intervention by london and washington these are difficult questions that must be answered made to the syrians are not the only find battling against present a front to the ease and terror and she has won that europeans traveling to syria to join the rebels a could pose a threat back home after they return fields are going to argue it that it's young muslims who could get in touch with islamist factions among the opposition to say we are poor. syria is two year old conflict is already seen spillovers to neighboring countries but now it is extended far beyond that it's estimated that hundreds of europeans from fourteen countries mostly young men have joined the

rebels in syria fighting against bashar al assad the london based international center for the study of article is asian with the tall figure at six hundred. well here and there were built for the. coverage of the radicalization of young people has recently focused on a specific story of a father in search of the son dimitriy want to join a radical islamist group that has gone to syria to join the fight for the the way they are hoping to break the some. planes are flying overhead all the time when we are on the streets or inside a building we have a bomb was dropped on us i haven't had a contact with. here in aleppo we spoke with dimitris lawyer who's in constant contact with him and he says the father is hell bent on finding his eighteen year old son. we don't expect that he will send me to syria i think that's

that's clear so that's also why didn't he. was eager to go and so he said i want to do something for myself a son who started changing about three years ago a problem with the u.s. and a certain moment he was influenced by some radicalized girlfriend and he didn't it didn't work out and you know some friends he say ok come with us and very slowly started that he was really influenced and really brainwashed and. started wearing a lot of those. preaching for. five times a day this ruby you had come into contact with shari'a for belgium a radical islam is a group whose leader followed by have been arrested for hate speech calls justifying the use of violence. there is judgment day if you're if you're a muslim you're if you're this believer you will go to hell terrorism expert claude

many cases the rise of radicalized is alarming many of whom are easy prey the first. question is why they convert. and usually they don't convert because due to make they convert because of a problem at one moment in their life most of the have no clear political ideas and they go to fight because the fact if they really don't meet this can you convince them. they could be in a sect to conduct trapped in the net of people who just are quoting them and for the convincing them that to get good in the scene they want to set aside or to commit another terrorist attack. authorities are paying even closer attention with alert levels heightened while worried family members of the youth fighting in syria have been called for a clampdown on radical groups the best they can do short of going to him says

although that may not be completely out of the question does or sylvia r.t. in belgium. the euro zone's had another troubled protests taking place in several crisis hit countries in spain almost thirty people were injured in clashes with police when over a thousand protesters voiced their anger over a new record high unemployment figures jobless rate is now at twenty seven percent and your sorry but this was also held in greece and portugal the discontented comes as official polls show that boston even institutions as recent all time low the leader of the u.k. independence party told us that anyone with money invested in this the crises own is now at risk. big investors should be worried all over the euro zone particular southern euro zone i mean i i have been pondering for years you know what would happen when spain finally went bang how would they possibly deal with the sheer scale of the bailout that would be needed perhaps be five or six hundred billion

euros happen without huge american support or global help because what cyprus has done is give us the template or what they will do in future is they won't buy all countries out there belgium in a little do it by stealing investors' money by taxing people on their properties and by forcing central banks into selling their holdings of gold i mean this is a truly assist. situation so my advice to people is if you own property i mean if you've got money in bank accounts in the eurozone get your money out before they come after you because it's perfectly or that is their plan heading on from here it's quite extraordinary that that into all these countries that are in trouble with the euro zone they would have to give it up parliamentary democracy and handed it over to a very arrogant troika ultimately of the euro zone going to break up the economics that break it up it may be civil disobedience or violence on a very large scale that eventually get some of those mediterranean countries out and after that i think the question is well what is the european union for. rides

the international airport in the very heart of moscow. thanks was with us you're watching our team now the number of hunger strike in guantanamo detainees has all knowledge by the officials that it has now jumped to

over one hundred chinese who are on strike at the moment the figure has doubled since the. a tree conducted a vine and raid in the facility inmates who are refusing food are now being put in solitary confinement and they're being the authorities are imposing a very tough luck don's off for the last two weeks now the numbers still fly lower than what the actual detainees lawyers have said about one hundred thirty people is what the lawyers claim are actually on hunger strike let's just take a look at these figures of that are coming up now the reason these detainees are actually on hunger strike is because of mistreatment and of course the indefinite detention now a hundred sixty six detainees is what the lawyers tell us on hunger strike whereas authorities are saying that it's only one hundred detainees twenty of them are force fed five of them have been hospitalized nothing serious according to the officials now of course that's not what everybody thinks clive stafford smith who is a lawyer for several detainees shared with us what could be some examples of mistreatment

that could lead detainees to actually join the protest when a prisoner doesn't do exactly what they're told the six being dressed up in a safe there in darth vader outfits come in and basically to make them do that and into the floor and check it describes how this one guy who's three hundred pounds sits on and sometimes in these in the stomach and i've seen the bruises on him from this process every time and their arms comes up five right role in charge of the general in charge i've never yet got a reply from him in the best one can do is complain loudly and tell the world when you get out what you see and the shames them because unfortunately the federal judge. for all charge of the cases who just last week that he has no jurisdiction to order the military to behave better under the circumstances.

right sectarian violence in iraq has led to over two hundred deaths of this so we get started out with a deadly firefight in the north where the military raided a sunni anti-government protest camp more than fifty civilians died in tuesday's attack baghdad blog ten television channels operating in the region including al jazeera accuse of promoting violence with no sign of peace between the sunni and the ruling shia communities iraq's prime minister warns the state is dragging itself into a civil war political analyst a den glazebrook says iraq's current violence is easily traced back to the west's an invasion. i think what we need to understand we're seeing here in iraq is that we're seeing the fruits of this policy that was adopted about six years ago by the u.s. and saudi arabia in particular and if you look at the way that the occupying powers of behave ever since two thousand and three since the start your division done everything it seems possible to try and form an sectarianism the constitution

introduced was completely based on confessional identity not on national citizenship sunni militias were to be equipped financed and armed by saudi arabia and qatar in order to wage basically sectarian war against shia muslims and we know that these two powers say that saudi arabia qatar and the forefront of representing imperial u.s. and british interests in the region so nothing gets done without the say so of these other powers well aren't easily see careful off on twitter for the latest developments in iraq's ongoing crisis.

a quick look at some of sunday's world news an apartment block has collapsed and over in france at least two people did this way injured when a suspected gas leak exploded at the four story building rescue teams have been deployed to try to retrieve two bodies from under the rubble of the destroyed complex. the police officers have been shot dead outside the talian prime minister's office and wrote a kid's name as i recall a letter and his cabinet were being sworn in as a pittance palace interior minister called the incident a tragic criminal gesture by an unemployed man after the attack and was arrested italy democrats are led to later this week with an end to a two month political stalemate. two explosions rocked a pakistan on sunday in a surge of violence a link to the may eleventh general election one blast targeted a shiite politicians office in the northwestern city of pasha killing six of his

supporters another five were killed in the city of cold hot outside the headquarters of a local election candidate that follows a series of terrorist attacks in karachi on saturday by killed at least four people no one's admitted to the attacks but the taliban recently threatened political parties that it sees as two circular. beijing's that in back over america's global audit of inequality high crime and human rights violations the annual report highlights show comings in china so it's issued to one of its own. is taking a look. after years of swallowing accusations of violating human rights beijing is fighting back after last year the us published its called in human rights practices report now china held a mirror back to washington and its role of international human rights judge let's take a look at where the two clash the u.s. again accuse china of limiting internet freedoms the so-called great firewall of

china where beijing has long being under scrutiny for blocking many western websites such as facebook google and you tube but those criticizing john are no saints sounding people and cispa bills took on all internet data have made waves across the atlantic lately and this government approved interception of private text messages and e-mails for security needs are hardly contributing to online freedom china's single party political system and lack of democratic elections also came under fire the chinese report made its wife back at america's multi-party system saying that in what seems to be a democratic process it's really not the people that the amount of money spent on complaints which really decides the winner is the largest part of the us report was dedicated to human rights as they are today from partial conditions to poor salaries indeed china's status of being the world's factory is nothing new and the cheap labor force concept has long been debated beijing hit back with a scathing claim that in the country where racism and discrimination officially do not exist after american and hispanic employees earn forty percent less than the

white population in the united states and that's through the glass ceiling for women who earn a twenty percent smaller salary than men the u.s. report also lashed out at the treatment of prisoners and members of opposition in china contrast that with a country which runs notorious guantanamo prison and the allegations of multiple human rights abuses within its walls with china highlighting full statistics on all deaths in u.s. prisons and the use of brutal force against peaceful demonstrators in twenty twelve it is no secret that china has a checkered human rights record but by countering the claims of those who it leaves should get its own house in order it is quite clear that beijing no longer wants to see a monopoly in the market of examining human rights. iceland is drifting from the e.u. after euro skeptic opposition parties won murray's votes in a parliamentary election this week right now on the phone with us to speak a little bit more but there is a style of our selves because of economic and finance are from the university of

iceland midst of all fells of the central ryder was ousted from power four years ago in the wake of the financial crisis what would you attribute to they come back to. basically it's a. rejection of the. by the population of a misplaced efforts that the current the outgoing someone's or rather go left wing go mad. they misplaced the misplaced efforts of the punisher crush so what is it what happens after the crash is that the government and the outcome of government put into place some drastic measures posting measure such as supplying to the you changing the constitution. then the longer the i sit in negotiation process which is. which is now being basically protests against by the operation by both again the other the other parties where the you know the

middle classes and the nearest person just wants to get some sort of deputy leader and and. seeing a some sort of possibility in in the high road getting the economy growing faster again and getting higher wages so it's the didn't live in the misplaced efforts of the current government and. moving for a radical issues in a time where where the population is suffering for from higher height that they're not cutting it way ships ok so you do you used to be pro e.u. membership yourself but now you make a fit of what happened why such e.u. ten. well i'm skeptical of them. basically it's difficult for iceland to see its place and inside the union which. it's difficult to predict what will look like in a couple years. with the uncertainty from the euro crisis.

and what we saw with the. change the status of the u.k. he sighed and said now are you. best. sensible to wait and see if you can get its house in order for us and decide on the question whether to be a member of been successful at this and saying alas i overall fell's professor of economics and finance from of the universe of i sent i'll have to leave it there with you but thank you thanks drew. ryan telling him to tomorrow's world in just a couple of minutes in technology update that's it from me.

this is a mystery to see. him no this is not a fifty's beside movie slogan it is what a.b.c. news is trying to find out what they investigated how lean finally textured beef is produced this type of quote beef has become very widespread throughout fast food restaurants and supermarkets in the usa and has led to its south dakota based manufacturer posting profits in the hundreds of millions of dollars but so what's wrong with some processed before might ask well the reporting showed that ammonia and other rough chemicals were doused on to the meat to kill e-coli bacteria and make it safe for consumption although this product is for some reason legal films have power to create public backlash and many companies gave up ordering in the mysteriously and finally tech should be ok while the mainstream media for once actually did something valuable for society and what did they get in return sued yeah the pink slime crew decided to sue a.b.c. news and forced them not to divulge their company's secrets as well as punish them

for defamation against their product which led to profit losses and guess what they won the lawsuit well defaming products that on mass could destroy the health of millions of americans is no blasphemy in my book but that's just my opinion. the international and world in the very heart of moscow. st.

oh and welcome to technology update living in our computerized world everything is driven by the push to be both smaller and faster at the same time nowhere is this more evident than with the creme de la crim or supercomputers if you like the world's fastest from just a decade ago when even cracked the top five hundred today.
