gone tunnel of a hunger strike enters its one hundredth day the number inmates refusing food is increasing and the use of force feeding has been condemned he has extensive coverage of the situation on the county. a million dollars a ged plus bonuses russia's security service releases supported phone conversations detailing all del a cia agent arrested in moscow was offering his potential recruit. friends and to the recession for a second time since two thousand and eight with some economists doubling in the euro zone's taking time bomb is the latest blow to present or long and tough but you know.

this is see coming to life from moscow hello and welcome to the program it's been exactly one hundred days since the detainees at guantanamo bay come started their hunger strike. the official number of inmates refusing food has been increasing on almost a daily basis and has reached at least one hundred thirty hunger strikers are being subjected to force feeding a controversial targeted condemned by the un and the international medical community as inhumane and all those numbers are only likely to grow because what started as a strike against mistreatment has turned into a battle against indefinite detention and washington's broken promises to close the prison at the center of america's war on terror he is going there to try can

explain. after years of injustice and indifference and after more than three months of starvation one tunnel detainees have finally got the president's attention i'm going to go back after this they've heard these words before as president i will close guantanamo reject the military commissions act and if you go to the geneva conventions and now we're dead it needs to be closed now congress and again as many times before the white house if it were sponsibility to congress there's much you can do administrative leave without congress without having legislative act even under current restrictions the administration has the power to use national security waivers to release many of these men which it hasn't used but it's the charge that well the fear that if you release some of these prisoners that have been accused of being terrorist in

the past and and they do something else or you find them going into terrorist organizations you will pay a heavy political price for that so many of these men have fallen victim not just to their wrongful capture but also to u.s. politicians assumptions of what they may or may not do in the future but you can't you can't invoke people to maybe you know this is a we're not future police here so far the administration's only response to the crises of carnival has been to force feeding tubes down detainees nostrils the fact of the matter is that when an individual makes a decision of sound mind makes the decision to refuse food as a political protest then as we said in a joint statement it is not open to the states in a second chance to force them to do each. and the full speeding here involves the insertion of a tube of some significant down on the diameter through the nasal passages and into the stomach in the most horrible of circumstances the un special rapporteur on

human rights also told me that he was encouraged to. here the president once again expressed commitment to close the infamous prison president of united states has said kuantan him as a problem and yet on the ground for some reason the camp administration continues to treat these men and humanely and to deny them basic dignity for years the administration is in gauged in verbal and legal acrobatics to justify its inaction on guantanamo and still not clear how long before people there start dying but one thing is clear the elephant in the room just got too big to ignore in washington i'm going to shut down. he has spoken to murat kurnaz who was detained at guantanamo bay suspects several years that also went on hunger strikes during his time and he told us the current protests could be the last for many who lost hope of getting either a trial already. states five years and going on with all together and

they always force me to sign papers that i should agree that i am me a member of a tithe and saudi gone and every time when i refused to sign those kind of terrorists they tortured me in different kinds. of ways like waterboarding until electroshocks i myself was couple times hunger strike and doing my time in granton almost so i can understand those detainees already more than eleven years over there they still didn't have to try and if you are in the system it's very difficult to get out even even if they go home and knows that you are innocent. ninety five percent of those prisoners already never had the trial and they still are not getting a trial for the future that's mean they can stay all their life over there even if they are innocent i myself i think it's going to be the last time a strike for the most the time he's. i believe they will never start again. and he

has been following the hunger strike from the very beginning before the u.s. authorities even admitted it was taking place we're been gathering comments from prison officials detainees attorneys and activists to give you a full account of the situation or that the timeline or the protest are very little on our website r.t. dot com. and actually another reason to close guantanamo bay is its cost because right now this is the most expensive prison and let's now have a look at these figures actually every inmate every detainee that costs nine hundred thousand dollars per year much higher than any other u.s. prison and reports also suggests detainees are currently living under a very harsh regime isolation low temperatures and force feeding but a u.s. military spokesman who oversee grant on

a mode denies to my colleague dog that those widespread abuse. the policy of the united states and its drudgery of life for lawful means we have currently thirty schools are. doing and terribly sad but it's not a it's a procedure that's done in hospitals and nursing homes every day. it's not it's not done to harass them but it's done kids and staying alive to sustain life while we've been hearing from the medical justice network who is saying that don't deserve accused of polluting in torture that the campaign that's been agreed on by the world medical association and the un the us and we disagree with them it's a matter of national policy our courts have upheld that. sustaining life you lawful means lawful and we have a medical protocol where we evaluate detainees based on their weight loss and co-morbidity. we we allow them to hunger strike that if they get to about eighty

five percent below that below eighty five percent of body weight some damage can be done we will do the involuntary feeding that's not the detainees job to tell the truth the lawyers just repeat what the detainees said all of those allegations are false they're not they're not being subject to extreme temperatures they're not being denied food and water the conditions are as good as they can possibly be you know they had satellite television and they had communal living that all kinds of good things. about the picture had flown by that gone tanabe spokesman contradicts all detainee of noise a saying and i was one of them clive stafford smith who represents several inmates including the last remaining british resident and he was the first to reveal some of the harsh methods allegedly you've bought the show saying detainees now have to undergo degrading body searches just a thought that represented. let's face it when my clients are coming to have

a telephone call that me last i heard you can smuggle anything in and out on the telephone. and so the idea that they threaten the prisoners with full body and i won't go into the really graphic but it's basically a sexual assault is just a threat to try to get them not to talk to us and frankly the reason for this is fairly obvious that there's been an awful lot of information coming out of guantanamo bay that doesn't suit the authorities last friday two of my clients refused to have called with me for the simple reason that they didn't want to go through that process and i had one of the other lawyers from reprieve was at the base last week and twice prisoners didn't want to come out for a visit because of what they've been threatened with well of course in order to negotiate an end to the strike we have to give justice to these prisoners and we're talking about as you well know eighty six of one hundred sixty six prisoners have been cleared for release that's fifty two percent of men third in most of the people i represent there's only one way and this strike fairly and that's to take

the prisoners who have been cleared for release and set them free for speeding is one of the issues most concerning detainees in law is so we decided to explore why exactly this procedure is causing outrage among human rights organizations and he is an exciting. what i'm about to describe to you is not torture these are the details of force feeding by prison guards in guantanamo which were made public in the leaked report first of all the feeding process itself involves handcuffs and mask and the long tube the inmates are cuffed to a chair then a guard covers their head with a mask officially to prevent speeding and biting and insert a tube into their nose prisoners have reported several cases when they nearly suffocated because the tube was pushed too deep into their nostril once this is over inmates are taken to their cell where they are forbidden from drinking water or vomiting the nutritional liquid there's even a special guard who oversees that the inmate keeps it all inside if they do for up

they are punished by being placed in a restraint chair to break this hunger strike prison authorities have attempted to separate the protesting inmates over one hundred men have been thrown into solitary cells to as it was put by prison officials prevent them from achieving solidarity it seems this move did not bear fruit despite the core of the protesters being isolated from other prisoners the number of hunger strikers has only increased the medical condition of some of them has seriously deteriorated but they complain that they are not receiving proper medical assistance reports from within the walls of guantanamo suggest that prison doctors blindly follow the orders of the military rather than acting according to their medical oath something that violates international acknowledged rights of a prisoner but those fortunate enough to have had the doctor's attention hardly feel in safe hands according to the experts the choice of medication is somewhat bewildering as if to not cure the various health conditions caused by a lengthy hunger strike but rather to facilitate force feeding one of the drugs

used is fairly grand which deals with north sea of vomiting and it can also act as a sleep aid another one is reglan which treats heartburn and known for neurological side effects so long term use and all of that is added to the prison guards acting without the consent of inmates who legally have the right to refuse medical treatment but in the case of guantanamo there is a special rule which puts force feeding on the same level as forced medical aid. and we'll continue our coverage of this milestone one hundred days of the hunger strike with more expert analysis and opinion coming out on out here throughout the day hunger strike despair pushed to the limit. the one hundred one tunnel detainees are screaming for justice. where is the end for. their alleged cia agent caught in moscow was offering one million dollars again for

francois hollande monks' one gain office which some have labeled at his own stuff and as his test software reports there were down so with a whole year's o's ability to monitor its crisis economy i was looking at a cafe culture here in paris still continuing looking calmer wherever this is a far cry a contrast to the other images that we've seen across the country such as protests against president fox will launch the first anniversary as president has there seeing him as not having done enough for the economy or those administering a steady protest now the a french finance minister had come out saying that this contraction that we're seeing now is a result of the overall depressed environment that france finds itself at its neighbors in the euro zone area however it is still a blow to our fund swollen to what dan has been seeing a lot of criticism for the policies that are in place and also there have been a lot of economists who have been calling france for some time now as a ticking time bomb in europe it's one of the core countries now that we're seeing

in recession no longer the so-called periphery of the euro zone such as countries like greece or portugal but of course euro zone nation so what do these numbers really mean for france it would be extremely difficult to get out of the speciation strain i stream we back the bullies see we try to use now going a spend she's catching labor cost cutting the petition a worker of course we have a show shown in part and you are not going speak to. afternoon a nice coffee like this one because you know it becoming too expensive for you well as these the small numbers hit europe and france finds itself officially in a recession the question really there is how long is it going to take before economies start growing and growing again and stop being in the red and also the concern is the longer it is that we see the sustained a lackluster numbers the harder it will be for a recovery to take place reporting from paris i'm tess are cilia. financial

analyst alex corbell believes there's no saving fronts until complete structural reforms take place. what we saw in france was not those thirty but what we call interest to do with. those thirty sources if you're paying taxes you could be boring and you public spending the average french worker respects at fifty seven percent the. proportion of the big dipped. in the g.d.p. is a ninety percent so clearly we should look the other way increase industry to lower taxes lower the big spending and. coming up next hour marx kind of thing stays ahead but again delve into the global financial headlines to come up with a surprising theory on how the markets operate. scientists used to believe that the earth was the center of the universe today economists who call

themselves scientists claim that the economy revolves around the central banks and this is the fractal reserve system behold the sacred dow as you know of course we have this secret dow if the dow jones or the nikkei or the footsie if they rise if they continue to rise then all will be ok in the economy so we sacrifice our wealth our economy jobs everything to rising a rising dow but that's not what we have not predicted in other words we said that after the two thousand a crisis that there would be massive money printing and one of the likely outcomes would be hyperinflation in the stock indexes. downloading free music in the u.k. very soon be a thing of the past british record labels have come up with at least with a list of twenty five services they're willing to take to court to stop online

bootlegging and say they're shrinking profits on his staff explain. well record labels could be about to launch the biggest battle yet against pirate sites and what's alleged will be the main blocking blitz in the ongoing fight against websites that files and infringe on music copyright the british internet service providers all i ask piece of already in the recent past being asked to block websites certain websites that are illegally file sharing music now it's thought that the british industry trade body. he launched the previous successful legal action is such a take a third wave of action now p.d. i haven't yet responded to this latest information but it's good that would be targeting sites such is the us based file sharing site greaves what would that mean well for british consumers of the music industry they won't be able to access these sites anymore this action is aimed at targeting the casual illegal dilator of

course for the hardcore pirates they'll simply move on it's thought to the vast array of websites that you have out there at the moment so already questions being raised as to just how effective any legal action would be but certainly it's seems that these are file sharing sites where the previous ever more popular are next for the chopping board is this music industry attempts to continue this crackdown on other legal file sharing. on the leaves of the u.k.'s pirate party laws coyote told us the record industry is using and i'll dated approach that could return to a point. if recent reports the roi it looks like we could be facing an onslaught of web blackouts here in the united kingdom what we've seen is that the tactic is first to go after high profile sites like pirate bay but actually what we've seen is from twenty twelve hasn't helped music sales at all but actually

album sales fell ten percent so we've seen how useless this approach is essentially what we see this is about the record labels trying to keep trying to remain gatekeepers and actually push our vo companies out but this approach will not work it's going to alienate a generation of music lovers and only it's going to perhaps end up broken lies and internet uses this is not what we want. found online for you human rights watch demands an investigation into claims of torture during april's formula one grand prix in bahrain as the climb down on the protest movement continues unabated head to r.t. dot com to learn more on how bahrain's officials are keeping a grip on the opposition. and more topic trouble in japan a nuclear reactor is in danger of being permanently shut down because it's located over an active seismic fault find out what the time is running out for officials to
