bay prison is torture and breaks international law to united nations label the treatment of detainees at the facility as many as twenty three prisoners are being forced to eat through nasal tube as a mass hunger strike three month mark. well as for the inmates say that as many as one hundred thirty of the one hundred sixty six inmates are taking part of u.s. military insists it's only one hundred prisoners describe the for speeding procedure was one of the most painful things he's ever experienced the protestors over the indefinite detention an invasive searches five of them now need supervised medical kept prisoner noir syndic newco it told my clinic have a new in the authorities often to take simple steps to resolve the crisis. the prisoners are high on while there has been on strike since february sixth he has chosen not to eat not to speak any of the guards in protest against its plans and forcing someone to do what they don't want to do or and now strapping them to

a chair and sticking to their nose is depriving them of their liberty you have it walk with. you but you don't love to do that anywhere and most places in the world to kill yourself is not legal. sure they get a jew cheap care the prison w. that has to come into it somewhere. yes but the problem here is that this really wouldn't help of course this problem could be resolved with something as simple as . meeting with them talking to the prisoner and discussing with them what it is. and the hunger strike and it's a simple as allowing them to return or to not have their qur'an searched that they haven't been seen very many years but we finally heard from president obama yes you have been silent for many many years how since he committed to close the prison we find we. really need you and your condemnation of the president but

and the first thing he did after the lilly ledbetter act in two thousand and nine when he took office was signed the order to close guantanamo but at the time the democrats controlled the house and the senate now certainly the right wingers the wing nuts have made it hard for him to close guantanamo now but he had kind of that sweet heart period where he really been committed he could have done i mean look the opportunity yet obama talk is cheap you had a chance and you blew it because you chose to cater to the most extreme members of the g.o.p. instead of keeping the promise that you campaigned on one that valued human rights and justice and the rule of law so just remember if these prisoners die the blood is on your hands. and that you can get the full story and much more on breaking the set so it's here on no two yet to fifteen thirty g.m.t. we can watch the latest edition online and it sounded like. a few

of one such man in glasgow. our as fred was born in iraq he's been in glasgow for five years and he's had three asylum times rejected so he has no right to work and no where to live he said legally i just been this shit for three artists i can go back to iraq because i am under the threat the assassin of my family all my family nowadays he sleeps on the floor of this gym in a shelter inside the local community center but for a raz and others just like him the abject poverty he subjected to is still better than going home and the home of his duty as a leg this is because he was an iraqi pupil at the home of his in iraq is saved but they are not right they lying to us they how is iraq safe the. last time i heard it will last we got a lot of people being kidnapped by the to do it is in iraq in the especially in my city where the home of his isn't always

a safe i mean there is no tourism but they lying to you they want in you go back i mean. they want to get the redo of you we asked the u.k. home office about their policy towards destitute. this is the statement we got failed asylum seekers have no right to remain in the u.k. and no need for protection they have a duty to return home and any support provided is temporary well individuals make those arrangements the u.k. government will see people don't need to be in this situation but i think that callously masks the reality they are in limbo maybe for years i have to tell you who are living with nothing absolutely nothing not even. the u.n. millennium goal over in five dollars this is absolutely nothing glasgow city authorities say they want to help people like arise but that their hands are tied because of policies made over six hundred kilometers away in westminster the law

has been constructed in such a we actually illegal for the council to provide support for asylum seekers so what has happened is that the numbers of destitute people have started to rise over the years it's a terrible situation it's a humanitarian crisis or school scotland's biggest city is the first in the u.k. to openly condemn the government's treatment of failed asylum seekers we want to treat people with compassion in school and they get in government won't let us do that in the standing in our way it's not known exactly how many destitute asylum seekers there are drifting about the city because after the home office rejects a case they slip through the net and disappear from the view of the earth or seize so they're left with no support and no way of working in a city that's just been ranked the most violent in the u.k. at the shelter volunteers provide a hot meal for a few hours at least men and women can experience a safe environment must be really difficult to be in

a city. you don't know anyone. you know because speak the language. i don't know what the lore is you don't know your rights you don't know where you can get what you going to do you get no money must be horrific frightening less frightening experience leads to be that lost at seven fifteen it's time to wake up. and face another day of trying to stay and survive in the united kingdom i never expecting they treat me laying that i want to have a better life and i want to have a job so i want to leave i mean like that as a human being so at the moment i feel i am underneath them in pairs and in this hunting party boy artie. well when the street cameras

was eventually able to identify the boston bombing suspects however the best images did not come from a public camera the video was reportedly filmed by a private camera belonging to the department store lord and taylor every publicly installed camera for every camera that the n.y.p.d. puts out or bloomberg kelley puts out or or some security agency puts out there's anywhere from thirty to fifty privately installed as they're being installed everywhere it's a pin up the car everywhere you go you're being watched in new york city the u.s. capitol of surveillance four thousand security cameras are mounted just in lower manhattan alone and visual recognition has become the new normal in the big apple and recently city officials proclaimed privacy to be off the table the attacks in boston and the news that new york city was nest on the terrorist list shows just

how critical it is for the federal government to devote resources to high risk areas it also shows just how crucial it is for the n.y.p.d. to continue to gather x. to expand its counterterrorism capabilities and intelligence gathering activities meanwhile the u.s. president is questioning whether his administration needs to apply new strategies to tackle domestic terrorism or the more thing. that we can do whether it's. in gauging in engaging with this where there's a potential for self radicalization of this. is there work that can be done in terms of detection detecting terror in the homeland eleven and a half years after america's global war on terror. our new york. the workers celebration that is may day so it's for many parts of europe a squeeze wages fewer jobs and talking. point with

in terms of political decisions on several occasions asked on the blocked launch of russia's satellites and manned space ships of course when russia will have its own space port here in the far east this problem will no longer exist there will of course be some disadvantages for instance the transportation of the russian carriers to the cosmodrome here in the far east right now it takes several days to deliver them to the baikonur cosmodrome which is two thousand five hundred kilometers away from moscow this side here is five thousand five hundred kilometers from moscow so it will take longer and a little more closely but the advantages which exist in this project of having its russia having its own cosmodrome are much much more significant in the first place the parts of the carriers the parts of rockets which are falling off from the rocket when it enters the atmosphere will no longer full on to the land and of

course will no longer create risks of these parts holding on to populated areas in the case of the drum these parts will fall into the ocean but the biggest and the most significant benefit which russia will have from having its own cosmodrome is its lunar program by the year twenty thirty as it's expected a space ship a manned space ship will take off from here to the moon which will then circle the earth satellites orbit. just the beginning that's why it will play way to a whole new moon exploration program with plans to build an observatory and the research lab on the lunar surface already voiced by russian scientists should that be successful the whole string of facilities including helium mining shafts may follow there's even a possibility that now lifeless planet could be made inhabitable by humans and enjoying a quiet evening watching lunar landscapes from the balcony of a moon no will no longer lines fiction but an absolutely real option.

but you have it up next to retail giant eyes up some banking ambitions some of the topics tackled in a new financial sense from interest. famous american political figure ron paul has decided to create his own liberty oriented home schooling curriculum at ron paul curriculum back to give parents not turn of the standard public education you know when i was a kid homeschooling was only for like the kids of wacko's and cultus if you met someone who was homeschooled you always look at them with some sort of suspicion like what's with that kid with what's with his parents i mean who would home school their kids well let's look at it this way who would grow their own food when

american supermarkets are stocked with pure healthy and natural food the problem is that food in stores is now loaded up with all sorts of mystery chemicals and g m o's and it makes perfect sense that nowadays people are intro starting to grow their own food and this logic applies to education too when public education becomes so dismal and it's perfectly logical and reasonable to try to educate your kids yourself the no child left behind program did a fine job of making the american education system lower the bar down to the very basement of the lowest common denominator i mean if you think there should be more in a high school graduates had besides reading writing and arithmetic that homeschooling might be for you as art sports and music and science programs all across the nation due to a lack of funding is wrong post libertarian curriculum what's best for your kids hey i could say but it's definitely worth taking a look at other alternatives given the d. minus quality of public education nowadays but that's just my opinion.

good afternoon oh welcome the prime interest i'm perry and boring here and washington d.c. here's the issues that we're tracking today. maybe we buy more maybe i'm talking about bonds ben bernanke and the f.o. and c.n.n. today have a taste of it q.e. purchases would depend on labor market and price inflation development the vague new england to give the fed up with central exit later in the year something that it's been hinting at but an employment report this morning missed expectations so it looks like the fed maintains considerable wiggle room to keep the printing presses rolling for now we'll talk about our previous monetary regime under for invoice with author ben studio and a bit. the new york minutes has been shaved down to a chicago millisecond and that's just about all the time it takes for high

currencies well for one the memories of world war one still lingered specifically the unintended consequences of the peace treaty the trade the treaty contributed to germany's bankruptcy hyperinflation and economic collapse which is why when designing the postal worker to economic structure of the focus was on reconstruction rather than reparations the key goal of britain's woods was to ensure a stable global currency regime that would help all sides rebuild their economic structure earlier we talked to ben steele the author of the new book the battle of britain woods i asked him and today's currency wars bear any resemblance to the currency wars of the one nine hundred thirty.
