why you should. leave. under pressure. the u.s. investigation takes a swing at. secrecy with. a

very good morning to you from all of us here at. pakistan's newly elected prime minister to u.s. drone strikes in the country at the end was one of the first things he did on beginning an unparalleled nonconsecutive of the u.s. claims. that activists say nearly a thousand innocent people have been killed and pakistan's high court has declared illegal. some of the victims of the drone war. the locals call it. an american drone as seen from the ground.

it's become the weapon of choice in the u.s. war on terror and this is the damage it can wreak under president obama more than three hundred such strikes in pakistani soil against alleged al qaeda and taliban suspects. but ordinary civilians also pay a price this man is one of them i mean a lot was on his way to work at a mine near his village when a drone struck the area he lost his leg in the attack three other miners who were with them lost their lives we live in constant fear of another strike or we are simple villagers who are stuck in a war that we didn't ask for it's a hopeless feeling bored to death is above our heads all the time although the attack took place three years ago i mean a loss says the pain is still severe the sight of his injuries upsets his four children meanwhile depression anxiety and lingering fear have pushed him to take up tranquilizer pills and modify it in the same arrogance should be able to tell an ordinary person from

a television leader whether they should know who they're killing or what did we do to deserve this. this is my ex and he did it in their own arctic it's a question echoed by now dar who lost part of his hearing his short term memory and nearly his foot when. the drone shockwave was so intense that it threw us outside far from the place where we were sleeping after several minutes there was another strike and it killed many more people attorneys out of bar has sued both the u.s. and pakistan on behalf of the civilian victims he says they're the voiceless people of the zeerust on isolated by geography and politics simply call it a concentration camp that you have built a wall of. military and militants and behind that wall you keeping more than eight hundred thousand people who are not allowed to come out and no one from the rest of the country is allowed to go in and that's a kind of tree which u.s. is using to use and test its drone program in many ways the epicenter of the cia's

highly classified drone program is a black hole on the map a region of pakistan off limits to outsiders especially westerners no evidence of the drone strikes is almost impossible to get but these were smuggled to islamize bought from the tribal areas they're believed to be fragments of actual hellfire missiles retrieved from a war zone most americans never get to see the fragments collected by norbu a local journalist who spent years documenting the civilian toll of drones especially on children disturbing images of the living and the dead for nor it's personal. to me whenever my three year old daughter hears a plane she runs inside and won't sleep that night the children here have been traumatized by the drones the sound of a door banging shot is enough to terrify them. and that fear can turn to anger a new generation radicalized by the war by carrying out drone strikes killing

innocent people who are not part of the conflict you are just widening the conflict . you're giving a reason to people who were not part of the conflict to become part of the conflict . of course this is made me hate the americans we are angry and want revenge they've destroyed our lives my parents my wife my children we all see america as our worst enemy now while promising to rein in their use the white house says drones are both legal and effective that's the target of all this on. us. personally and. that's. when translated by defense that's cold comfort for the victims you see caffein of pakistan. and the u.s. media is mainly now reporting classified documents indicate the cia did not always know who they were killing during these attacks in pakistan there have been rallies

against those operations with activists claiming hundreds of innocence of died let's have a look at the impact these drone strikes have had since they started back in two thousand and four now eight hundred and eighty four civilians are reportedly being killed that's according to the bureau of investigative journalism it's estimated that nearly two hundred children were among the victims the use of jones has spiked significantly since president obama took office we're talking about a six fold increase compared to his predecessor george w. bush and chris wood so from the bureau of investigative journalism he says there is little transparency about these continued drone operations with so many civilians reported killed and yet the cia claiming that it's killed no more than fifty or sixty civilians i think there is a need for an open not only an open inquiry but also for the cia to share the information meet her as one who believes it's killed in places like pakistan

president obama's speech the other week did seem to promise more openness but unfortunately we're not seeing signs of just yet in pakistan we now have an incoming government that's making absolutely clear to the united states that it doesn't want these drone strikes i don't think they're going to stop most of the strikes there in pakistan these days are really not related to al qaida to those terrorist activities but really to the war across the border in afghanistan and the drone war has changed quite significantly over the ten years or so it's been running we see the united states talking about using drones in syria for example we have heard of course from iraq and rwanda recently for the u.s. to use drones that so there's a concern among some that the u.s. will start to use these drones as an easy plank in the view of foreign policy. now the coast advances in unmanned aircraft technology certainly causing some concerns at the u.n.

it's rapper two are for extra judicial killings christophe hanes he called for a worldwide suspension of the building and the use of new killer craft that is until the international community can develop concrete rules for its use and his report says the u.s. u.k. israel and japan are among the countries who possess drones which are fully automatic they require no human input to carry out deadly strikes with a computer fully in charge of deciding who and when to attack the document notes that while machines speed up decision making they show no compassion or human operators can at least try to avoid unnecessary casualties and here's what the author of the un report to me the un report told us about the increase in danger. supported to say there's not a particular day where we will be able to say we have fully autonomy robots this is merely an incremental process but they are really already very high levels of autonomy available and in full autonomy maybe they believe in

a few years important to emphasize the distinction between jones and legal on this robots or laws says they'll support and with drones you have a human and do this somebody sitting behind a computer and taking decision to pull the trigger with robots there is no human being in the loop it's a computer that takes a decision to these are both forms of unmanned vehicles and there's no human being in the vehicle but. johnny still control the human being i think there's wide acceptance that drones in themselves but they certainly undergo all through which means they can be used in war in the same way that a plane and drop bombs from two thousand peaks and with eyelets it's you in the plane it's the ground these are all of these you need with robots it's something completely different because here we don't have a unit takes a decision and for that reason many people feel like these new things in themselves should be regarded as. just about

a ten minutes past the hour here in moscow still to come for you in this program guantanamo going nowhere for republicans in the u.s. congress the infamous prison open by blocking the transfer of prisoners cleared for release we speak to the lawyer of one inmate who's been on a hunger strike detention without charge now for over four months. and twelve face trial on charges of mass disorder and violence against police that are rally for president putin was sworn in one year ago. for another for a six night running witnessed a similar scene clashes leading to police unleashing their water cannons and tear gas on protesters a third fatality has been confirmed in the unrest after a man died from head injuries and car a hospital activist one the police chief responsible for the violent tactics removed and urged officials to ban the use of tear gas protesters also want all

those that have been detained released saying that could actually end the days of riots the turkish prime minister meantime returning from a trip to north africa he will be expected to do something about the public discontent with just seen demands for him to reverse all of his policies but it's not his arena reports or the one of his just to be looking for scapegoats. barricades in the legs and. turkey's going through a rough time right now so who's to blame. there is a problem called twitter right now and you can find every kind of why there the thing that is called social media is the biggest trouble for society right now said prime minister. before judging often african tour voices of dissent on istanbul's taksim square as well as many other squares and parks in turkey. but the turkish prime minister had by then already dismissed these voices as coming from drunkards

and extremists the only types of people who attend protests in turkey according to iran this completely dislikes a position. he take this as a personal offense. he's used to have. agrees from the public for a lot of time because he gamed the. waltz of the contrary this time probably he didn't think that he didn't assume that there were these the protests will be so big everyone's feelings for the protesters however are mirrored by the people on tech scene who believe only one has lost touch with reality and cares mostly about one person's opinion his own everybody was here being and everybody where people were. trying to resist and people were trying to keep the spark and he was telling to be are you. saying that there is actually no project here

going on and then he changed his mind and he said there is of course a project that i will do what i want to do and then the reserve spies spies everywhere and this commentary on the protests the prime minister insisted there are hundreds of thousands of foreign agents working to upset the status quo in the country i don't insist that it's these very agents that have instigated the unrest in the first place and continue to work among the crowds encouraging dissent in turmoil today's news paper quoted in the new. unnamed source in the government who claimed authorities have arrested some fifteen foreigners across the country in connection with the protests ironically many of them turned out to be nationals of iran a country which has been on air to one's blacklist for quite some time but just a couple of months ago the prime minister cut a different picture delivering a heartfelt speech on the subject of human rights and freedoms. where there is no

justice there is no humanity because there is justice and justice is excluded the place of justice shifted to the man's identity the identity of human bein's to speak it is impossible to claim that people can build a decent life but in everyone's turkey lately people have been busy putting up barricades to keep police at bay rather than building a prosperous future for themselves it even goes quite istanbul. and one of our the ones most contentious foreign policy he says is have a link of the syrian conflict middle east expert manuel auction writer he says the reconciliation rhetoric are now coming from some turkish officials is that actually designed to please foreign observers not the opposition. international community puts now a lot of potential on the protests especially in east but it doesn't here still much to do with the demonstrators and so we can see you this because these

demonstrations we with this now are not very new what they are going to i'm going straight through to you since right now especially in the south thirty percent the s. and it's received your political against syria the general problem it's about this publicly extend it doesn't just quote danger integration in syria it also puts danger into aggression against its own citizens once inviting international mercenaries terrorists. into criminals gave them shelter they are. training and sent them to syria to fight fear this is a problem because these people are now in the cities and the turkish citizens being against this so you see i think this is addressed to european union to us into the west and for your nation but not so much to their own demonstrators. and you can follow all the latest developments on talkies on the rest on line we've got the

live coverage activists best pictures from the scene right now at. the. stay with us here and come to you live from moscow in just a moment we'll tell you why guantanamo bay is staying open and how one of america's largest mobile networks is routinely handing over the telephone records to the gulf . well the british.

market. find out what's really happening to the global economy with. the no holds barred look at the global financial headlines kaiser reports.

thanks for joining us here on. u.s. republicans have against president obama's pledge to close guantanamo bay in congress they prevented the use of public money to move detainees many of whom have been refusing food for over four months in protest of their indefinite detention but lieutenant colonel barry when god who represents one inmate he says obama does have the power to release the prisoners but he's just not doing. under the national security whatever he can do that with the secretary of defense he does have that power it's time for this ministration to either report up or to at least tell us what's really going to happen the president doesn't have the authority to released from guantanamo bay to include men like shakur aamer back to london and now i have the united states hunger strike there's no sign that there's anything in the cohesion going on to the hunger strike i mean my client reports that all of his

personal possessions are still confiscated toothbrushes so letters from home his attorney client. privilege the two of us with communicating between each other has all been taken and not returned he asked me he said hey what kind of people vote to fund prison that's ninety five percent full of men who haven't been charged with a crime after eleven and a half years i have to tell you and only answer for the mystery to me what kind of person says we don't care if you've done anything you're sitting in guantanamo bay or just on the ground here in one town i'm ok there's. no change whatsoever and everybody is sort of waiting for washington to kill some leadership. british police suspect. the videos

on the web site. police discover hundreds of. these are. just. before a judge. facing charges. they were arrested

following protests which ended up in. the case. expecting the court session which will be a closed one behind closed doors to start at around midday time twelve people will be in the dogs all charged with inciting violence more than a year ago on may the sixth twenty twelve just twenty four hours before the inauguration of president putin when. huge protests in it's a very hard and that event back then so probably the biggest violence the russian capital has in many years everything was going peaceful back then and still some point of time when some part of the protesters tried to break the police lines and move towards the kremlin in a protest march that's when the violence erupted between the protesters and the police and that was all of it in more than eighty people were being injured and

several hundred were arrested of course most of them were released almost immediately after the protests twelve of them were charged by the authorities for provoking the violence for starting the scuffles between them and. more than a year on this case has finally reached a court in the most cool central court and that's where the fate of the twelve will be decided this case has been riddled with control over still it's really all this time the opposition has been describing those twelve people accused as political prisoners and have been demanding their release in fact the latest biggest opposition rally to moscow was primarily dedicated to these twelve people accused of inciting riots and may. be reporting right now switzerland's culture of bank secrecy it's coming under increased pressure as the u.s. pushes on with an investigation into tax evasion and the for now swiss lawmakers

have managed to block the government's plan to hand over client data however with the e.u. also knocking on the door the fight is far from over. this report. the swiss parliament has decided to put on hold a bill that would let swiss banks give the client information to u.s. authorities as part of this tax evasion of the swiss said the americans have been in attacks this week for about two years now and the swiss government has warned its parliament that if it doesn't act quickly enough criminal charges may be leveled against some of its largest banks this is in addition to the e.u.'s latest move to also pursue a heavy handed approach on its clampdown on tax evasion the e.u. has decided to start talks with offshore banking havens that are not e.u. members like switzerland to establish an automatic exchange of relevant banking data now with crisis trick of the e.u. and the us having to do with its own a fiscal problems this is a way for governments to rein in that passion back into government first it was far

switzerland is concerned this is a very lucrative market making it the world's largest. offshore account with about two trillion dollars in assets and the question there is with this kind of government pressure being put on the likes of switzerland will it actually achieve the desired results for people who want to hide their money from the tax man have the will and the financial means and they may simply look elsewhere to park their money reporting from brussels. and before we get to the kaiser report. that we go starting with millions of americans reportedly having the phone records seized without even knowing it at the u.s. national security agency has allegedly secretly forced varieties and one of the nation's biggest phone companies to hand over all of its cold data it was apparently signed off by a secret code which also banned barraging from even admitting that it's handing

over b. information. south korea excepted an invitation from north korea to hold talks about setting up commercial projects. would include the reopening of the jointly run song industrial zone which was shut down in april. when tension between the two reached its highest and the closure left tens of thousands of people without a job jonghyun called old stuff from an area seen as a symbol of the last few remnants of cooperation between the north and south the timing and agenda of new talks will be announced at some point. the worst floods in a decade continue to deluge parts of central europe thousands of people have been forced from their homes eight cities declaring states of emergencies and fifteen killed so far with at least nine others missing and the latest city to brace itself for the worst is dresden in germany. up to ten rockets were launched from syria into lebanon hitting the eastern city of baalbeck that's according to reports

another three missiles were launched into a hezbollah controlled area of the same city that's according to local sources a syrian rebels are outraged that hezbollah is fighting on the side of assad's forces helping him take back the very strategic town of qusayr and they've threatened to fire the militant group inside lebanon with the arab league condemning hezbollah as intervention. let's get into it here on r.t. as promised time for the kaiser. the school board in batavia illinois has decided to punish one teacher for his bad behavior by putting him on a strict probation play or what did he do to be deserve being part of this probation planted he do select punch a student in the face or to go in some sort of horribly racist or sexist ranted for

the class so he just reminded the students that as americans they have the right to not incriminate themselves to put it more simply he told the students that they didn't have to answer a questionable survey about drug and alcohol use and their emotional state since the data from this questionnaire would be sent back to the private company that created it this raises even more privacy issues than just the school knowing about the students personal lives i would like to commend this teacher john dryden for actually going above and beyond and telling the children something they need to dial you know if you're going to live in a society based on individual rights it would help to actually teach children what those rights are but that's just my opinion.

welcome to the kaiser report imax kaiser you know germany's longest word has sixty three letters it's officially ceased to exist of course being so long was never in common use in fact it was so long only a computer could possibly speak it. because that's. indeed any word that takes longer than five seconds to say is just too frickin long not to fail. maybe it was so long that it failed as the headline on the telegraph germany drops his longest word fly shetty and eventually they did have the whole

thing but it ruined all of the h.t.m.l. and c.s.s. of the whole front page of the telegraph so they got rid of a was a war that was about the laws regulating the testing of beef and the interesting thing about this is in germany in theory a german word can be infinitely long unlike in english an extra concepts can simply be added to the existing word indefinitely such extended words are sometimes known as boon to warm or ter or tapeworm words and i thought this could be really applied to the financial system that they just add on concept is the same concept fraud fraud fraud crowd fraud fraud and you see that with their derivatives they get longer and longer words but the same concept is that the tape for must be fed with these additional frauds wow this is a quite a high falutin way of getting around to one basic concept we've been discussing on this show for a while which we can discuss.
