rampant violence in iraq this week has claimed at least forty two lives bombings shootings have put the number of those killed in july over eight hundred making it one of the deadliest months this year john reason political activist from the stop the war coalition weighs in on what he thinks is behind the violence in order to occupy iraq the western forces british and american adopted a policy of divide and rule. a major sectarian conflict where there wasn't one before they created al-qaeda in iraq where there was no al qaida before so i think that the country is approaching to the most enormous strains as a result of that war the truth of the matter is it's a terrifically weak government it's a product you divided down the middle between people who are sympathetic to iran's position in the region and those. feel dependent on washington it's

a state that's been left in a catastrophic weak position by the occupation which the current developments in the in the middle east are a weakening stillmore more than a decade after u.s. led forces invaded iraq there is a legacy of horrific birth defects some scientists have blamed the weapons used by coalition troops now fallujah may be the best known example but we discovered the toxic legacy may be far more vast than previously known and my team and i were the first take an in-depth look at the lesser known extent of the cancers and birth defects in the city of najaf has that report. not just one hundred sixty kilometers south of baghdad the sacred shiite city is known for its holy shrines and is surrounded by one of the largest cemeteries in the world some of the heaviest fighting of the iraq war took place and these graves its legacy still haunts the residents it was born with severe birth defects he's only eight months old but the doctors don't expect him to live past his first birthday. i felt dizzy
4:33 am
you were not hurt the news i ran out to the office in the taxi. but for his mother there's no escaping the reality her son has a nervous system disorder and his muscles are slowly wasting away. it's a recurring nightmare for leila and her husband three of their children were also born with congenital deformity as none of them survived and while they don't have proof they believe the radioactive ammunition used by american forces during the war is to blame the rule isn't over yet if the americans are goon with suffering from the consequences. spiralling numbers of birth defects and high miscarriage rates have also been reported in fallujah and basra where american and british forces used heavy munitions at the start of the war but our visit to knowledge off revealed that the phenomenon may be far more widespread in the log

than previously known dr sundin's and as one of the few scientists who's been documenting cancer and birth defects here and she says not just as in the midst of a growing health catastrophe. after the iraq war rates of cancer leukemia and birth defects rose dramatically none joffe the areas affected by fighting so the biggest increases we believe it's because of weapon sled depleted uranium and hospitals here cancer is more common than the flu. depleted uranium or d u cuts through armor like a hot knife through butter more than four hundred tons of it is estimated to have been used in the two iraq wars the vast majority by u.s. forces the pentagon did not respond to our request for comment but the military generally denies any link between exposure and cancer or birth defects it also says do you weapons are only used to penetrate enemy tanks but a new report funded by the norwegian government found that was used against
4:35 am
civilian targets in populated areas including not job in two thousand and three it notes a lack of transparency by coalition forces over the use of depleted uranium but describes one incident in najaf where a bradley armored fighting vehicle for three hundred five rounds in a single engagement. the heavy fighting may be over but in nearly every street we visited in this neighborhood multiple cases of cancer and children with deformities no one knows what's making people here sick the families want answers and they want help. of is old enough for school but have to be cared for as if he's a toddler he can't walk he can't speak he can't even go to the bathroom on his own use of brother is healthy but the family has two other children one severely deformed the other with a hole in her spine like many of the couples in this city are simply too afraid to have another baby and they're left feeling totally abandoned no one cares about
4:36 am
what's happening to all of the other families in this area even our own government doesn't do anything to help what can we do because our fate is a fate that many and not just suffer in silence. help with their lives in the decade. since the u.s. led invasion all across the country their memories are honored in cemeteries like this one the dead may be the most visible reminder of the human cost of the war but it's the living victims of that war's talk that we're still paying the price. of our knowledge of iraq. well moving on the u.k. government to stepping up its battle against illegal immigration a new initiative includes a van driving around city streets that carry posters urging immigrants to leave or face arrest but it's not the first measure like this in fact earlier this year ministers had planned on adding an advertising campaign to show just how bad of an idea visiting britain actually is highlighting the country's less attractive side all in the hope of scaring away on wanted arrivals now another scheme ready to kick
4:37 am
off within months seize those coming in from blacklisted countries deposit three thousand pounds security to be returned on their departure now even if you arrive there legally there is still the tough citizenship test that even the u.k. nationals struggle to answer. it takes a look at what's behind these initiatives. with long term unemployment in the u.k. hitting a seventeen year high long lines of job centers have become a typical and while many britons are struggling to find a job a recent report by to finish academics says that immigrants from eastern europe are seven percent more likely to be employed and this trend generally holds true in the agriculture business on this berry farm here in kent the workers spend about eight to nine hours a day picking berries in the sun in the heat it is physical work now under the seasonal agricultural workers scheme of the u.k. it's estimated that there are thousands of foreigners working on the u.k. farms. robert pascoe who runs this farm says there are between three hundred and
4:38 am
three hundred fifty immigrant workers during the harvest season mostly coming from eastern europe. probably in the majority we need a supply of people who come in for the summer season and that's not so popular amongst english people because they they want continuity it's not considered to be . a profession in the same time you've got a lot of keen enthusiastic and bright eastern europeans to come for six months and we see how bright they are they enjoy doing what they're doing and wish to stay longer and of course they're becoming more. like a volley or romania who's been working on this farm for nine years do you mind doing all this physical hard work and i think i'm doing that for you during that i was. out of the feeling in the back and like on the report comes on the one hand
4:39 am
amid the government's goal of decreasing the net immigration to the tens of thousands and concerns that cheap migrant labor is decreasing local wages and on the other hand widely unpopular cuts to the u.k.'s welfare system which your work and pensions secretary says is in order to restructure the culture to disco. rich people from living off the dole and find work instead of i think most british people on our extremely hard working and you know industrious we've also got an element it's true i think we've got an element of privilege i want to work i'm not quite sure how big that is but then you've got another problem which is the benefits trap and that's what we should be concentrating on how do we get our people back into work how do we motivate young motivated and you don't do that by bringing wives and wives of cheap labor who just get on the cut them by the end of the year the e.u. is temporary work and travel restrictions a bulgarian rumanians will be lifted giving them the same rights to work in the u.k. as other e.u. citizens farm owners speer this would lead to bulgarians and romanians leaving farm

jobs for hotels and offices and are calling for more temporary workers from non e.u. countries while others fear this will bring in an influx of immigrants accessing not only jobs but welfare benefits as well. sylvia r.t. can't. come back with more news in about fifteen minutes time but before that it's the truth seeker right here on our team. i.

covert ops in syria egypt. nine eleven and blowback. the un has branded as an instrument for war targeting future colonies. but also. building those groups of snipers shoot first peaceful protesters and police in syria triggering western intervention two groups of snipers for no apparent reason shoot both peaceful protesters and soldiers in egypt unexplained snipers of spokes on the wrist in thailand venezuela and many of the other nations on the washington's controlled surgeries to report on the recent bloodshed in egypt thanks a lot for joining us to receive the same thing in syria that's correct and again if we examine the same situation in the early days of the syria conflict we have many
4:45 am
reports from individuals on the ground talking about snipers station on the roof tops in cities such as tear off some of the early focal points of the protest movement remember that the conflict in syria emerged out of a protest movement that protest movement was not a regime change movement that was a protest movement and you know and for economic reasons fuel oil subsidies perhaps some increased political voice but it was certainly not. regime change scenario and it certainly was not a violent civil war from the outset however what drove the conflict which drove the file it's in the conflict were the presence of these snipers in the early days so when you saw women and children being shot in the head in a in iraq or an mot and they tried to immediately say that it was assad's forces who were doing that conveniently they never provided one piece of evidence to sit
4:46 am
to actually demonstrate that and in fact even the arab league observer mission in early two thousand and twelve which was openly hostile to the assad regime which was clearly an anti assad mission even the arab league observer mission noted the fact that there was a quote unquote a third force a third element inside of syria that was not the protest movement nor the government of damascus and it was some other element and that element was driving the violence and of course as we see now two years later it was incredibly successful and fomenting civil war there why wouldn't forces within the country do this it doesn't seem to make sense that either side would really have benefited from this kind of chaos we need to understand this in this broad narrative of those elements internationally used violence as a pretext for destabilization this is no longer the nineteenth century imperialism
4:47 am
that we learn about it history books you can't just go around in fading countries and you know imposing your will by force and by violence rather it has to be done in a more overt way and one of the ways that you do that is by creating the necessary humanitarian over humanitarian culture is now official u.s. policy revealed in the leaked your us on the manual meant to be kept the secret told him of the destruction to three destroyed by any method that will prevent disclosure the only manual was. least in nov twenty ten just before it was began appearing in syria designed to get round the international outrage at direct invasions like the rug the new us army manual instructs future country takeovers must be predominantly covert the book lays out how to infiltrate and religious minorities to provoke civil war using snipers against peaceful protesters is an example work with guerrilla groups to make them respectable al-qaeda and painting

them as victims fits this category syria is being bombed as the report advised as an insider has told r.t. noto allies turkey and israel a bombing from across the border in fact the west been plotting this invasion of syria for years france is ex foreign minister division two years before the violence started british officials told me they were planning the invasion of syria the syrian opposition deny these claims. it is literally impossible for africa to get out of that rustles the kristoff lehmann wrong maybe fifteen called in the find a treaty pending earnings from the resources and gold reserves of paris. because free for things on it then lend africa's own money back. and africa's money lend back to it says the west is shameless enough to create

4:53 am
enormous military spendings a huge drain on growth and increases unemployment war takes the nation's brightest minds from productive industries and gets them to perfect killing which produces nothing this big so also old question in the war on terror though to kevin thanks a lot for coming on why do government figures like lawrence summers cool was a great job creator plots of people go along with this because it's in their personal self-interest look at how military spending really works when it does it takes productive resources out of the real economy and puts those resources to work building things that serves no human purpose other than killing people and wasting resources and not only that you know there's a very very tight correlation negative relationships between military spending and economic growth so high beltre spending kills economies and kill societies and that's what's being imposed on the u.s.
4:54 am
the question is why in whose interest is this where's the economic interest here well it's actually the military industrial complex that's colonizing the american people and draining it have its resources and stealing from it and looting it that's what's really so i think that's a big part of the puzzle here is that these policies are being imposed by people who have the soft interests whether at steeple who are making money off the military industrial complex or whether it's some you know banks toure's the roster out on the rockefeller's and those guys trying to build a new world order global government global government in the shape of the un crystal flamen is currently working against countries next in line for quote humanitarian intervention this u.s. army report called string of polls singles out these resource rich new. clear free asian states as makes targets in these countries the george soros funded u.n. team for preventive action international lawyer chris black is performing the very
4:55 am
destabilization laid out in the u.s. army manual so it's just promoting divisions the u.n. works with the international crisis group also funded by george soros along with western governments the i c g's concept is quote preventing conflict three military intervention another was preventing war by waging it the world peace society and many others know most wars only make things worse both to label was going on the united nations. instead of being an instrument. used. to describe. him re kissinger argues former colonies have no statehood rights as they were all to officially created first time around recall analysing them for being victims notice and s n b c so it's like you know the press taking only immoral case of the worst double jeopardy this is the truth.
4:56 am
your government is still persisting in honoring despite. most people around the world would have absolutely no. confidence and one argument also ahead here is that the reason the rebels have become jihadists and of accepted money in chad is flawless have been associated with that is precisely because the west is not

5:00 am
i don't thing legacy of the war in iraq goes through the generations leaving children as the latest victims are to investigate so as to who's to blame for the destroyed lives. they fear is confrontation between the egyptian army and the muslim brotherhood turns bloody more than seventy people are confirmed dead in cairo clashes with each camp blaming each other for the violence. and. it's still transit limbo for a word snowden who is waiting for people work that will allow him to leave a moscow airport amid fresh threats from washington. and the syrian national council agrees to take part in a peace conference but first demands that assad's steps down asking the u.s. to ship arms to the opposition this comes as divisions within the rebel camp highlights the possibility of internal strife.
