six months of the starvation guantanamo gods will say the hunger strike is on the wane but just for prisoners take in despite repeated force feeding and invasive body search it's. tough times for the u k z u that we look at the plight of jobbers young broods to two years after violent riots a rock to london and other parts of the country. and graphics which are supposedly showing a militant attack on a kurd village in syria surfaces on the internet as reports claim four hundred fifty kurdish women and children are killed.

it's eleven am here in the russian capital you live with us on our t.v. with me to mom would say it's good to have your company with us let's take a look at the news this hour. it's now all of us as prisoners began their hunger strike the u.s. military says the self-imposed starvation protest is a waning because inmates have been eating after dusk as is tradition in the holy month of ramadan a painful force feeding procedures and invasive body searches are still part of the data routine for many of the prisoners here's our washington correspondent in a church camp. every day in guantanamo it's groundhog day whether you're a guard or a prisoner that's how one officer described life and get mail every day is the same as the last and there is no escape for many inmates it's a painful routine routine that includes regular searches and force feeding twice a day for those who are on hunger strike the latest account from the prison comes from a british resident named shakur aamer has been held for eleven years of good will

never charged with any crime shuckers been on hunger strike since january has also refused to leave his cell he writes i have said what i want to do just sit there for a week doing nothing just sitting it's about as nonviolent non-problematic protest as you could imagine but they won't let me do it so the forcible cell expression ting carries him out of the cell his hands and feet in shackles to a special place where they perform a search a pet down which shakur armor and other inmates call they get moma sarge they flipped me over for the surge mostly it's just an assault sometimes a sexual assault we call it the get my message they carry me like you second potatoes which is really painful for me. guantanamo officials actually responded to our inquiry about chuck ramos allegations by saying we don't comment on any detainee allegations made through their defense attorneys regardless of how

ridiculous and absurd the allegations might be by saying this quantum officials may be suggesting the truckers allegations are ridiculous and absurd could be but nonetheless more has a history of torture and abuse which washington has tried to cover up by hiding behind state secrets privilege if you listen to the officials you're led to believe life would get more was not so bad the inmates can watch cable t.v. their welfare and force feeding is not as bad as it sounds no matter what the un says after all they use a lubricant to shove the feeding tube down the detainees nostrils to make sure the detainees don't resist of course they struck them to a chair on the receiving end that is on the detainees and it's of course a completely different story they report pain humiliation and despair that's their routine in washington i'm going to check them. went on a mobile is already the world's most expensive prison but new data from the u.s. defense department shows the bill is running even higher than previously thought

and the facility opened in two thousand and two and its overall price tag will top five billion dollars by next year keeping one hundred sixty six inmates a house at the prison means you have spares are picking up a tab of a million dollars every single day one time a bay is located in cuba or so the u.s. has to spend plenty of cash shipping food materials and flying in personnel now here's a total to have a breakdown for the year with a big share of the spending allocated to prison staff and security guards now another large chunk of taxpayers funding goes to maintaining the high security wall courts keeping the prison running meanwhile seems to serve as a recruitment tool for terrorists worldwide that's what the senior counterterrorism counsel for human rights watch told us. the problem we have with one tunnel that as long as it remains open as long as the u.s. engages in this eleven years plus regime if you go to tension then terrorists will

continue to have a very powerful tool for recruitment in order to say to to young disaffected man throughout the affected regions look at what the united states is doing to your brothers look at what the united states claimed it would stop doing because of course the man in montana my own people around the world you know the president obama pledged to close guantanamo was in one year of taking office and that was four and a half years ago and there's no closure and by there's a very simple way to close it down and that's either prosecute people for hundreds the fission evidence of crimes in legitimate courts like the us federal courts and release the others that has always been the way to close guantanamo. the prisoners began refusing food because they being detained without charge and one more humane treatment the un's a special repertoire for torture trying to find out more about the conditions but he told us that the pentagon only offered him a very limited tour of the facility. unfortunately i was not allowed to visit.

the town of obey at least not in the terms that i have to apply under the rules that i am subject to i did get invited by the pentagon but on conditions that i couldn't accept because conditions was that i would see only the parts of the prison that they wanted to show me and specifically that i could not have individual reading from within me they claim that they can only give me the same terms that they give united states legislators for example or that they give giorno this or other visitors but i am desperately united nations special rapporteur on torture and the terms of visits to detention centers but i apply have been approved by the human rights council so i'm not asking the united states to give me any preferential treatment but i also cannot give the united states preferential treatment by. president obama still has and close guantanamo bay despite the fact

that he promised that in his a first a campaign back in two thousand and eight now our chief political commentator sam sykes told of breaking the said why he things the prisons still open. i think the most pressing question when it comes to guantanamo right now is you know twelve years on all the rhetoric that we've heard from the obama administration all this talk for years now that it needs to be closed you know what's keeping this facility open certainly there's a lot of blame to put on the obama administration but we also have to go back and look at the bush administration because this was created under the bush administration in two thousand and two it was created in dick cheney openly says this they wanted to put a facility off u.s. soil so that they can get around certain rights that these detainees would have if they were on u.s. soil and also the bush administration committed torture to get a lot of this information a lot of the detainees here so here we are twelve years later president obama is afraid that if you release of these people they might commit some terrorist act in

the future really that's not a way to govern out of fear the rest of these detainees are people who the government feels that they have a strong case against that they've done something wrong but none of the evidence they've gathered is permissible in court so they can't exactly hold them to this normal trial so instead they're just leaving them there indefinitely it's poor planning was shortsighted planning to create this facility and that was just fear that's keeping it open. phantom zero is covered in breaking the set which is here at eleven thirty g.m.t. we've been monitoring the guantanamo hunger strike since it started at the beginning of february and we've chronicled it all for you on our website r.t. dot com as our one ton of our time life we got all the latest updates the plus for send prison accounts reaction and expert and alice is of what's going on at the notorious prison. right to see.

first story. and i think that you're. on our reporters were there in. the in the. two years of sins wind and riots wrought to london and other cities and towns across the u.k. and bridges of the youth are still feels left behind to with the government pressing on with cuts thousands of young people are falling and failing into long term joblessness once more the seeds were sown long before the unrest and twenty eleven youth unemployment has been rising steadily since two thousand and two the figure has almost doubled in the past nine years and currently stands at almost

a million meaning that one the in five brits aged sixteen to twenty four don't have jobs and the number of those not studying is also on the rise according to the universities and college admissions service applications from english students are at their lowest in the past four yes this as a tuition fees have tripled in two thousand and twelve hour days are over at the met a young bridge who took part in the riots two years ago to find out if anything's changed. everyone. i want to please. i meet charlie at his council house it's been almost two years since his arrest and imprisonment as a result of his participation in the london riots he received a six month sentence for theft to charlie the impact of his actions have lost it far longer you would think that. you know where. this thing.

doesn't make it. grow. it's big. i would never. kill these one of those who would have been dumped in the aftermath of the rioting that with the turn barrel you've also probably courtney met with many young people he got caught up in the violence and her new book seeks to do what she says is an isolating and stigmatising tight so i try to deliberately because i knew it was the phrase that gets used by politicians and by the media to describe well often to describe young people in general which is just complete misnomer very unfair and i'm just so inaccurate almost one hundred percent of the time the motivations behind the riots were complex the basic economics play

a key part of the rich poor divide is so extreme at the moment and the poor are kind of being and the thing that you know that being left behind that was a phrase i heard in my research a lot you know we're being left behind and so i think it might be the start of something more i don't think the problems of going away they haven't gone away then we're going to see more more problem until these things start to get results on the spot that started the riots largely attributed to the sheeting and killing by police of a man named mark duggan here in the london borough talking two years all of them friends and family is still awaiting an inquest expected in mid september because they wait but says many questions still remain over the ensuing violence some putting it down to mindless criminality others to deep rooted social problems that many feel guilt have not been dealt with indeed youth unemployment in the u.k. remains that crisis levels latest figures show that nearly

a million people between the ages of eighteen and twenty four around to work. i'm never going to join in because. i think for me i didn't. stay in a constant close to home school. i mean it was i was performing in joy. and with a criminal record. at the time of the riots the prime minister described the behavior of people like charlie as mindless criminality pure and simple often they need to. listen to us more because we live in the last basically in the slums we haven't got nothing so they need to sort of listen to us and. our world across and maybe what we need or what we want not necessarily what we want what we need and what might help us if they can was in front of you right now what would you say to him that you think young people need right now to help he said more

you've crops and more to do maybe more funding to do things he says he's going to do this and that i hope people. when we're going to be given. winds of hope you know there's all this talk about this and there's no action. seen on the. so let's see london well stories ahead for you here on our team including turkey trial. now riot police fired tear gas of demonstrators as a court hands out prison terms to lawyers a journalist and a former army general we've got that story and roll in a few minutes. wealthy british style. time to explain the fine.

market. to. find out what's really happening to the global economy with mike stronger for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune into kinds of report . but if you will come on and watches the news all the face time to time you know. a pleasure to have you with us here on t.v. today i'm sure.

the welcome back you're watching our team militants in syria have apparently killed four hundred fifty kurdish civilians it's being reported along with unverified horrific for tish by an iranian news channel which also claims that one hundred twenty children were among those slaughtered now the other three hundred thirty victims are said to be women it's believed gunmen affiliated with the radical militant al nusra group attacked villages in a kurdish dominated region in northern syria so far and neither the government nor the rebels have confirmed the report and of course we cannot verify this disturbing footage is showing people being tortured and torched alive meanwhile two hundred civilians from two kurdish villages are being held hostage by an al qaeda linked group militants launched an assault on the taliban are on and tallahassee those not

abducted away killed while others were forced to leave while as has been spiraling in the region with kurds gathering volunteer fighters to stand against terrorists eleanor simo from the kurdish democratic union party says the ultimate goal of islamic behind the attacks is to expel all the kurds from syria. the most serious thing is that this. group. the state of iraq and syria there are more dangerous and more serious threat after. they have declared. all there is from syria they started to. terrorizing. the. people mostly you have to use your house and the way that we go to exist you call all of you we allow to take what ever. you want to do kurds in turkey

gathered near the syrian border in solidarity with kurds in syria who are victims to jihad as attacks their protests ended in violence the police are firing tear gas at stone throwing crowds at least one person is thought to inject and twelve arrested. nobody knew asylum documents in hand and a say will still blow edward snowden is now free to roam russia for a year after receiving permission to stay last thursday while his location will be kept secret for security reasons his revelations of u.s. dragnet to civilians continues to resonate around the world but fit as well as foreign minister told r.t. spanish channel that snowden's leaks only confirmed what his country suspected long ago. when a woman took a we had only strongly suspected the u.s. was carrying out surveillance across the world america excuses its nuclear activities by saying it's based on legislation and congress gave its approval along

with the supremes. i put it into effect but there are a lot of ethical questions as to how this program is being implemented in regard to society in this case the rights of u.s. citizens are being abused and besides we also see that the program involves other nations who are not obliged to abide by american laws and this is what makes it all very serious that us. nearly three hundred people have been convicted of plotting the overthrow of the turkish government the verdict in the five year long landmark trial saw the head of the army lawyers i condemn it's an journalist get long prison terms of some of them jailed for life joined in a protest against the very least and clash with police a slamming the trial as a witch hunt international relations professor mark ellman from bill kent university says the turkish government fears a military power grab similar to what happened in egypt. on the one hand you have to charge the state military intelligence christmas against the protestant but the

prime minister's supporters certainly seem to feel that there's a deep plot against them organized by security forces not just in the last few months we see this dramatic shift in the middle east which is why i think very few are particularly vulnerable very good muslim brothers in egypt who they see very much as just a party. pushed out of power they feel that the americans and europeans are tolerated i think in the encroaching government circles in our party circle say fear that although this particular case got going some years ago now the threat for what very perceived as the secularist military alliance against them could have indorsement from our side. of the way it was servicemen are switching sides to join the bad guys online we report on how the war in more working for mexico's drug cartels is hit men and traders and the f.b.i. says the recruitment is set to increase. and does reveal that

boston bombing suspect tamerlan and i have had been reading white supremacist literature before the attacks the story at r.t. dot com. now there's a more news i'm making world headlines this hour three people have been shot dead at a town council meeting in pennsylvania in the united states and armed men bless us through the wall of a municipal building an open fire witnesses say a local official then it tackled the men before shooting him with his own gun police have confirmed the suspects arrest but have declined any further comments. massive flooding has struck a northwestern province in china downpours left residents and stranded and traffic at a standstill excavators and relief teams were called in to help with the extensive damage a series of floods and landslides has forced mass evacuations for over a month now. police have used

a water cannon to disperse a protest against a new security bill in the chilean capital a legislation that aims to introduce harsher penalties for demonstrators who would tell police peaceful demonstrations would be targeted to if they caused this order in public places she has been a scene to frequent student protest most of them are peaceful but small groups of people have been known to try and attack police with rocks and petrol bombs. big ridiculous and downright bizarre some of the words used to describe footage from the dashboard mounted cameras and russian's cars whether they're scams catch everything from driving offenses to me geos and the racking up the hits on you tube i choose easy friends to see. if it wasn't for this we would never have seen this the eleven thousand ton meteor that impacted chelyabinsk in february the video

was breathtaking the world asked when did russia become the authority on the so called dash cam george fetch macof says we have russian roads to thank there so bad that proving he isn't negligent in a crash can be tough without one two weeks ago i. didn't it wasn't my fault it was just a problem with the road. record for. me to say that it's not my fault it's not just the roads it's also scams like this one people throwing themselves at cars to collect injury money it's a known fact that while driving down the road in rush hour you never know what might sail past you it could be a boat a tank. a fighter jet. or even a passenger plane crashing into a highway it's never dull. and it's very often hilarious mostly because it's

happening to someone else like this video really i don't like it why don't we deal with. it. yeah when the guy said oh ok. people love russia nonchalance when faced with calamity all seriousness aside just think of all of the comedy missing from the internet of russian dash cams are made illegal because what makes it so uniquely russian isn't just what's happening on this side of the dashboard but the reaction inside the car that when we are playing here and with the sound up i want to learn the russian word for holding. the. end. fact the russian reaction seemed so laid back its spawn parities on russian television according to automotive journalist alexander pickle

nko these little cameras are now a part of the culture judging by the survey that we conducted of the forty million drivers in this country every ninth one thousand video recorded cording to legal experts were slang cannot have it any lawmaker wants to pass legislation preventing provocative video from being posted online whether for privacy or decency he is going to have a tough hill to climb legally but just again almost caught with dash cameras issue of privacy is irrelevant because they document events in public areas so if you find a dash cam video of yourself being laughed at on the news after an epic evening out you may just have to turn the other cheek because at this point your collateral damage in moscow lindsey france our team. right next it smacks kind of with the hottest money matches on the monkey detail and i t v stay with us.

wow revolutions in the middle east sure get a great deal of coverage what you don't mix a lot of sense revolutions or exciting t.v. peaceful protests or nice but footage of molotov cocktails flying and crazed crowds of local middle easterners really grab attention so there's a logical natural reason why some protest movements get a lot of coverage in the mainstream media well others kind of adult please forgive me for being conspiratorial but there is one revolution going down which does have all the exciting visuals of the arab spring but just doesn't get any of the mainstream coverage in fact unarmed people in this country recently stormed the parliament trapping ministers and lawmakers with that they held them down for eight hours demanding the government reside until police with shields smash their way through creating

a narrow corridor through which the officials could escape now that sounds like exciting and visual news but why did you hear about it all over the mainstream press that's because it didn't happen in libya or egypt or any other exotic country but in good old boag area right in the e.u. where u.s. and e.u. interests are best served by the status quo being maintained there is no need to hype up an intervention or kinetic action in bulgaria the only time you ever hear about the need for a crackdown in bulgaria is when a government there actually started working in bulgaria own interests and not the us a use desires but the ashes my opinion. welcome to the kaiser report i-max kaiser is george osborne the straw man of

treasury secretaries according to wikipedia a straw purchase is any purchase where in the agent the straw person agrees to acquire a good or service like a mortgage for someone who is unable or unwilling to purchase the good or service himself. and the agent transfers the goods and services to that person after purchasing. the mind boggles let's get stacy herbert in air to discuss this yes max today this morning across the world i've been noticing that this scam that happened in the us was the end of the housing market bubble which was a famous case in arizona where this guy had a development he wanted to sell and flip all these condos so he got some straw persons to buy the properties and start bidding wars as if there was some huge demand for their property so with this in mind i would look at this headline no rush to sell lloyd's shares as bank returns to profit u.k. taxpayer now is thirty nine percent of lloyds max and the shares are booming shares

left as it was announced it made two point one billion pounds in the six months to the end of june compared with a loss of four hundred fifty six million for the same period last year so the shares to eight percent they were jumped four percent this morning and everybody's saying well now the government can sell this thirty nine percent share they have right the government like enron has accounts that they work with that are on disclosed and they used those accounts to buy shares and lloyd's to jack up the price they're manipulating the price of lloyd's number one number two the number that oz born uses as the break even number is pulled out of his bottom it has no relation on the actual cost it's not adjusted for for example inflation it's not adjusted for the amount of money that savers have had to just scorch to keep this zombie banks afloat that's number two but the.
