a different view altogether it's emerged that a chechen immigrant killed in the united states during questioning over alleged links to one of the boston bombing suspects was an armed law enforcement officials have earlier claimed he attacked an f.b.i. agent with a knife and was shot in self-defense it began to da ships father says he finds that hard to believe. from the photographs that were sent to me it's evident he was shot six times to the body and wants to the head the back of the head it looks like a finishing shot of an assassination to me it looks as if they came to his house like bandits and shot him in cold blood from the photos his house looked like it had been robbed he was questioned for eight hours without witnesses or a lawyer no one can tell for sure what happened there until there's an official investigation the agents say my son attacked them but there were several armed and well trained men even if he lost his temper and became violent they could have
11:06 am
restrained him or wound him shoot him in the leg or the arm or the shoulder but what happened was murder complete with a finishing shot maybe my son knew something the police didn't want to come out and they killed him to keep him silent. all the f.b.i. says it's launched its own investigation into the incident but it could take months to complete i just married up or now looks at where the agency stands on the issue . at the time of the shooting up to half a dozen law enforcement officials including two massachusetts state police troopers and an f.b.i. agent from the agency's boston division were present at the florida condo which was not far from universal studios but the f.b.i. has provided few details after the shooting saying that the matter is being investigated by a specific f.b.i. review team and the f.b.i. may not finish its probe for several months now the f.b.i. meanwhile has been under enormous scrutiny for missing several warnings about
11:07 am
tomorrow on the biggest warnings coming from a russian intelligence officials years ago indicating that may have links to extremist groups the f.b.i. for whatever reasons did not follow up and probed the matter to the fullest extent and that some would say led to the execution of the boston marathon. bombings and now we have this development unfolding where our man that was shot and killed by f.b.i. agents turns out according to the washington post to have been on the arm so clearly the f.b.i. is going to have a lot of questions to answer in the coming days with these new developments on this story. marty the con has more on the boston marathon bombings and connected cases log on for details of the investigation and reaction from officials and relatives of the accused. to the u.k.

now were one of the suspects in last week's gruesome killing of a british soldier has been charged in court a broad daylight attack in london set off a barrage of and to muslim and immigration protests and the immediate aftermath ten mosques were attacked across britain and several assaults on muslims were reported the far right and islamic english defense league is planning rallies of more than thirty locations on saturday. terrine anti-fascist groups have called for counter demonstrations to coincide with those protests appollo western leader of the nationalist liberty g.v. party says their reaction has been quite restrained considering the circumstances. if you see the fact that the a.d.l. are protesting about this is being some sort of far right as it's been described. it is a perfectly valid response to a british soldier being killed on the streets of london in the name of israel and i think we're trapped in a very vicious circle that is going to get worse and worse and i don't know how you
11:09 am
go about trying to deal rather these people unless you start shutting down mosques which are practicing sedition which are practicing. with. a lot of this problem goes back to saudi arabia and the radicalization where we have to start closing down mosque which are practicing hate speech and t. and two female anti anti homosexuals anti. indigenous people if that's what it has to take then that's what we're going to have to do because this problem is going to get worse and it's not going away muhammad should speak from their ramadan validation tells us british muslims are united in their rejection of radicalism. what we saw over the last seven days after leave rigby's brutal and barbaric murder is a strong reaction from the muslim community that is what we give and the message goes out very clear that if you are involved in terrorism or extremism you do not
11:10 am
represent islam you're not acting in our name and you bring in shame on the community and you must be confronted and we need to see real action from the police and the authorities to deal with this threat you know terrorism affects all communities why are you talking about here in europe or talking about united states across the world but actually i think the majority of the british people recognise that this is a very small minority of people they don't represent any particular part of our community and actually if you look at the most victims from terrorist attacks i've generally have been muslims themselves there's more reaction and analysis on this story to come on air and online but while opinions may differ some parts of the u.k. are experiencing a seismic shift in demographics sarah first reports on why so-called white flight is seeing an exodus from cities and suburbs was dominant ethnic populations. london . a multicultural hub known for its thriving diversity spanning
11:11 am
the centuries but research by social think tank reveals that while london remains is going to serve a it's perhaps not as integrated as some people might think long and experienced a huge amount of white flight. income people mainly in the outer suburbs leaving london because they think it strange too fast for one of these people is jane kelly having lived in london most of her adult life she's seen first hand the cultural shift is now looking to me how she feels the area she lives in lost all sense of community all people i knew when i moved in here have gone they've all moved away. now mostly flats with very transitory population but perhaps surprisingly it seems many of the older generation of migrants who live around here and it settles and builds up businesses agree that integration is not working as well as that maybe should be ethnic
11:12 am
cultural diversity in london that's part of what makes london the it so why do you think it's seeing a little too close to the problems the right to go to zero is foreign people is more or less these european people there is interested to do a short journey make the money and run off the country and there's no investment very very return to their country there's nothing to rebuild the country is only for themselves to make money and that's through no versatile i mean i've been to this country when i was like twenty three years old now i'm forty three years old so i'm investing business i'm doing so many things in this country paying tax back into the country and you know that's the way it has to be in london white brits now make up just forty five percent of the capital's tehsil population. we're here at one of london's busiest train stations and in the working week commuter hard over the course of a decade in london stories white british population for
11:13 am
a moment six hundred thousand people lost in the commuter towns on the outskirts and the population has become more ethnically mixed so you know that white points are leaving london behind the question is why i want to thank tiffany is having on the local communities they've left behind well there's a certain amount of diversity which is very nice in any city. but when the diversity becomes so extreme that you have. balkanized groups but no actual. traditional communities or the traditional communities around number of completely new comers or the newcomers keep rolling in it has a very alienating effect what's been seen across the cape for a long time has been most acute in london but the figures aren't the full story avoiding ethnic communities does play a role in so-called white flight but evidence shows that race may not be the main driver i think the main thing about that white flight reminds us of is that there is a problem the mistake it makes that says that problem is just about ethnicity it's
11:14 am
not it's about age and it's about mixing between people of different incomes and we need to address all these things together there are now concerns britain could see yet another immigration surge at the end of this year when some twenty one million romanians and seven million bug ariens will be free to travel and work across the e.u. only a fraction of those of forecasts actually come here that previous immigration under-estimates coupled with white british relocation changing the face of london's ethnic makeup without much understanding what the full ramifications of that might be. so if they are to see london and ratcheting up the cyber tension the us ploughs billions of dollars into digital warfare. this as president obama prepares to confront china over its online offensive and meeting next week stories coming up after a short break stay with us. as. well
11:15 am
pilgrim a language of war but i will only react to situations i have read the reports so let me put a no i will leave them to the state department to comment on your latter point of the month to say to mr kerry you have a car is on the docket no god. no job no more weasel words when you made a direct question be prepared for a change when you throw a punch be ready for a. printout of speech and a little down to freedom to cost.

a story. the cyber race between the u.s. and china is starting to look like a real arms race it has its drills its spies and both sides accusing each other of cyber attacks this june china will be holding drills with special i.t. units within its army for the first time the chief of the u.s. cyber command general keith alexander says the u.s. is now busy setting up forty new teams of cyber agents that will both protect america's critical infrastructure from hackers as well as launch attacks against the country's adversaries and so that there is no confusion as to their capabilities general keith alexander says quote i would like to be clear that this team is an offensive team the offensive nature of u.s. cyber defense program is emerging new reports which say a large chunk of the country's current cyber endeavors does not rely on defensive strategy as one might imagine but instead involves offensive operations launched with the intent of causing harm on the computers of adversaries a recent reuters article cites defense contractors and government officials most of

whom speaking on condition of anonymity and the article says that the us government has become the biggest buyer in a burgeoning gray market where hackers and security firms sell tools for breaking into computers the u.s. has demonstrated its ability to carry out a cyber attack against a foreign country when they attack the iranian nuclear facilities and similar attacks against the u.s. would be seen as an act of war by the pentagon's own definition there's a certain game of words going on here when it's against the u.s. it's called a cyber attack when it's the u.s. doing it it's called installing software but there would be no cyber race without spice and the latest development here is that the chinese have reportedly hacked into the pentagon's most sophisticated weapons systems leaks confidential report by the defense science board intended for pentagon leaders says to dozens system designs were compromised those systems are said to be critical to u.s. missile defense and aircraft you. officials point to china u.s.

news outlets run articles with headlines like this one china is winning the cyber war because they hacked u.s. plans for real war china traditionally denies the accusations of cyber espionage but if the accusation is true if one still has to ask the u. what's what do you expect when they see your cyber or forces attacking another country's infrastructure or when they hear you say you're a pivot into asia pacific with all that military gear to counter china in washington i'm going to check out. dan along and from country risk solutions has governments around the world face an uphill battle securing their national secrets so i will work there is very much here to stay it's very much a part of our daily lives and the trick is going to be to try to make it less of an everyday occurrence and more manageable that's only going to come with time but
11:20 am
right now i think the u.s. and every other country in the world is quite vulnerable to cyber attack we've already seen that everything from. nuclear installations in iran to the idea of electric grids in the united states or extremely sensitive defense and intelligence secrets and they have been vulnerable to cyber attacks whether it comes from a government whether it comes from a very skilled individual hacker there was the case just last year stratfordian united states which was a private company which was hacked by a teenager who managed to get through a firewalls and basically. make his point clear he was subsequently discovered of course but it can be done by an individual imagine what could be done on the part of governments there are so many things that happen every day to rehear nothing about. china's transitioning from military hardware to hard drives plans an

and coming up adding martin dissects the mainstream media and breaking the set stay with us. destruction is one thing the media does very well we all tend to focus on one spicy issue of the moment and ignore the rest jewels are definitely worth the media attention but let's not ignore the fact that the food people eat around the world is an attack from multiple fronts antibiotics are often overused in cattle which can and eventually sadly will lead to anti biotics resistant bacteria evolving animals are also injected with various hormones which can make their way into our stomachs and speaking of mysterious things getting into our body pretty much any
11:26 am
crops that you we are doused with all sorts of pesticides and sit on top of powerful fertilizers which can affect bodies of water far beyond the fence of the farm obviously technology has been and should be used in farming so we all don't starve i get why pesticides exist and why they start giving diseased animals antibiotics but there comes a point where out putting a lot of poisonous food will kill you just as dead as slowly starving will there is a healthy middle ground out there somewhere but if we only worry about just the g m o's and only win that battle then we'll still be eating food loaded with bad stuff just other bad stuff but the show just my opinion. you live on one hundred thirty three bucks a month for food i should try it because you know how fabulous i had lunch i got so

many i mean family and the town i know that i'm still really messed up. in the old story so personally i believe the. worst you were going through the white house or the. radio guy for minestrone that one quote for about six years you've never seen anything like this until. how do you folks i'm at a martin and this is breaking the sex wal-mart stores have pleaded guilty this week on federal charges of violating the clean water act in california and waste management missouri company who raked in one hundred twenty eight billion dollars in revenue last year were they not a grand sum of one hundred ten million dollars as punishment yeah that to teach them a lesson you guys were talking about the largest retailer in the world i think most
11:28 am
definitely afford to feel some pain for the damages they inflict but perhaps no one knows this better than the company's own employees to see if the retail giant is infamous for an upgrade over time or benefits to its associates so now the workers are doing something about it. in miami massachusetts and california have kicked off what they're saying only the first pro long strike in the company's history they're also planning to have more stores join in the strike and organize a high profile walkout on black friday stores busiest day of the year hope of the strike and continue to grow and really hit the store where it hurts because until then the company will write about the law. we continue to hold the workers who are the backbone of its profits and utter contempt so i'm glad i'm not the only one who thinks walmart and similar corporations should be held to higher standards but until they are i'll be right here in the sec.

right now the supreme court of mississippi is debating a case that could lead to charges of manslaughter for women who suffer miscarriages or stillbirths the case involves thirty three year old nina buckhalter has been standing trial for manslaughter in the loss of her fetus which prosecutors claim was caused by her legal drug use according to a mother jones report but halter was charged based on the section of methamphetamines in her system which led a grand jury in to declare the defendant quote did willfully kill a human being by culpable negligence however medical and policy groups have argued it's scientifically impossible to determine a direct cause between in utero illegal drug exposure and harm to the fetus so if there is a guilty verdict in this case what kind of precedent might it set for pregnant women moving forward.
