this is our duty tonight deadlines for the limitation of syria's chemical weapons a set but finding a country to take and destroy the toxic stockpiles proving far more challenging than expected. a warning for whistle blowing the u.s. hockey gets ten years behind bars after breaking into a private company spying database which revealed the white house was keeping an eye on human rights activists nationwide. and won't back down on a promise to return all evacuees to their homes and if despite the loving radiation levels well outside the exclusion zone. this is close to the average level of the ghost town in the chernobyl zone only with one exception the place where i'm at right now more than ten thousand people are currently living.

good morning she just joined us just after one am here in moscow what she got international with me kevin now in our top story most a serious toxic arsenal will have to be taken out of the country by the end of the year according to the newly adopted plan by the chemical weapons watchdog but the most pressing question tonight is what more than a thousand tons of highly poisonous materials are set to go that question remains unanswered so far it looks unlikely that any country is going to volunteer to take it as a middle east correspondent there are reports the organization for the preservation of chemical weapons has laid out a vote map for the removal and the destruction of syria's chemical weapons the problem though is that they were banking on albania to take these weapons in albania has since indicated that it will not be to this. this decision and this

announcement by albania came as a shock to the united states and the european union of the union is seen as a very strong partner with a so-called unshakeable alliance to the waste it is also a very poor country but there were wide scale protests in albania with people saying that they refuse to allow their government to be party to taking in the weapons from syria now the problem is that only a norway also indicated that it would not allow these weapons to be brought to shore no way however saying that it will send a ship that will help with transferring the weapons to wherever they are taken but this is the problem it's not yet clear where in fact they will be taken and the latest word from the united states is that it has other options on the table but no indication as to what these options are this is a very ambitious time frame that has been stated by the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons it says that by the end of march next year most of syria's chemical weapons will have been destroyed and that by the end of june all

of them will have been destroyed but again it seems that if it's facing an uphill battle not least of all with the decision as to whether in fact to destroy these weapons. france belgium and a big target as possible alternatives to take syria's chemical weapons four of those journalists north robert harness explained to me why you would probably have to agree if. the reason why france is a previous candidate is that france has a considerable program running all the time disposing of chemical weapons left over from the second world war which keep being uncovered so they have the technical capacity to deal with the problem there are political reasons why they might not want to get involved because it's a sort of recognition of the bashar al assad government which france is but the last government to want to do so they they may try and wriggle out of it but they may also be under pressure of the americans to be helpful my guess is that france will say yes because they'll want to look positive the trap for the french apart from the fact that they have here to be recognizing bashar al assad whom they have

spent months and years decrying on every possible ground is that the public may well say that if france minded his own business in the first place they wouldn't be in this awkward position of now having to be helpful over chemical weapons. but generally even if it doesn't host syria's chemical weapons the a is becoming increasingly tangled up in the conflict since european spite she was a warning of a rapid growth in the number of citizens going to fight in syria alongside the islamist opposition one reason official site for the surge of support a muslim the europeans promoting jihad on social networks across the continent attest to the reports. i am french to french parents my parents are atheist and do not subscribe to any religion praise be to allah who guided me. all are now killed himself. having found islam on the internet in two thousand and nine in this video he's urging muslims to join the fight in syria is younger brother john daniel was persuaded to join up too but he was later killed

in aleppo. converted to islam it will save your soul from hell fire. for you and this is just one of many such videos online of young europeans calling their peers to arms french and western intelligence services have intensified their warnings and europeans heading to syria to fight nowadays they've noticed not all the extra rise in the number of individuals heading over there but also in the kind of people who are joining the fight they say that more and more they are more committed to the struggle and upon their return to europe there is still no clear cut way to do radicalize these individuals estimates with the number of european spotting in syria between five hundred and seven hundred most of whom are from the u.k. and france and france is the more newspaper quotes of french intelligence sources saying these levels are passed even those seen for afghanistan.

many of the media joining the groups. and groups which not only wants to work through a sad but the global jihad rhetoric and share fully the project of al-qaeda many of them will get back in europe much more radical for the french in the memory of the terror attack by frenchman moslem rather kill the seven people is still fresh fears of a repeat of one radicalized young men returned to france most of those people are native french people traveled to afghanistan and pakistan we were able not to arrest him. on grounds that he had been fighting in afghanistan or at least training zero this summer germany's interior minister suggested a temporary ban on fighters returning home belgium on the other hand had been

working with turkish authorities to bring their nationals back to overestimate europe have already been made but there still isn't a one size fits all solution in the e.u. sandy terror chief says or could there be the difficulty for me. determining who's a potential threat and who isn't tesser is still there r t paris. thousands of people who are evacuated from their homes out of her she would disaster may never be able to return but some a group of japanese officials want the government to give up the promise that it will make those homes safe to live in again any time soon instead what the government wants to do it is sort of to change the definition of safe instead i did it the radiation levels would be one millisieverts per year but japan's government now hopes to certain acceptable exposure level it twenty times that to be able to return the evacuees back to their homes now fukushima in some of the worst affected areas the radiation detectors show measurements around fifty times the recommended

amount doctors say that's half way the level of causing cancer well ok alexy number less traveled to the nuclear exclusion zone for us to take a look. it's hard to say what gives you a creepier feeling the trail of destruction left by the twenty eleven tsunami all the houses untouched by natural disaster but abandoned after the nuclear accident walking through the deserted streets of the fukushima exclusion zone we can see plenty of both technically we're now well within the goes on we're just ten kilometers from the nuclear power station these houses ravaged by the tsunami twenty eleven still stand here nowhere near to being with stuart you'd be surprised to learn that radiation levels here are in fact lower than in some of the european cities and this prompted the decision by the japanese government to allow the people to return to their homes but scientists say that's suicidal because radiation migrates and because it exists in hotspots scattered all across the area

. in the hot spots there is a huge amount of the radioactive material it's concentrated stored it is almost impossible to find out all the hotspots. we actually stumbled upon this process radiated material from personal belongings to contaminated soil is put in plastic bags and buried the radiation meter when brazil even from a considerable distance imagine our surprise when we found similar levels in an area which had never been included in the no go zone i've traveled through the church noble exclusion zone more than a dozen times and this was probably the scariest episode when we put a radiation meter on the ground and a layer of loss and it produced more than eight hundred micro wrong hands per hour that is forty times more than the normal human radiation level here sixty kilometers something to question when you clear parkland the readings are certainly

less than that this is close to the average level of the goes down in the channel those zones only with one exception the place where i'm at right now more than ten thousand people are currently living. mrs morey's ono is one of them she bought a radiation meter and now patrols the area looking for hot spots we had after school classes for children at our house but had to close it because of high radiation. in her short life this girl has already got used to seeing a lot of radiation meters just like mrs murray's own know her mother joined an ngo group of ordinary women united by fear for the future of their children and distrust of the government's actions. we're sending our data to government and tepco officials every day and we get no reply i don't see any action from them as if they're trying to play down the scale of things meanwhile our children are already suffering from fire issues is. the voice of dissent is now intensifying despite assurances from tepco as spent nuclear fuel rods are removed from reactor

four at fukushima daiichi. we have it under control it's a challenging process but we have the equipment to perform it anti-nuclear protesters and talk you say no one should be allowed back into the fukushima area until it's completely safe which in truth may not happen for centuries their peak it has just served eight hundred days and they will stay longer they say to force their government into rethinking its nuclear policies. r.t. reporting from japan well as alexie reported their physician was operators are in the process of removing the house of the spent nuclear fuel rods from the crippled power plant the right to four but it recently emerged to that some of the rods being damaged decades before the twenty eleven tsunami and earthquake it's a risky process is going to make it easier details not another nuclear developments in japan can be found on a website up to dot com. next the hacker who expose the u.s. government's espionage and human rights group has been sentenced to

a decade behind bars jeremy hammond was found guilty of breaking into the computer systems of the private intelligence company strapped for as well as law enforcement and government service. reports from the court or somehow it's being seen as a warning shot them to whistle blows. after two hour hearing in a packed courtroom in the federal courthouse in lower manhattan twenty eight year old activist and hacker jeremy hammond was sentenced to one hundred twenty months behind bars he's going to spend the next decade in jail and march twenty twelve hammond was arrested for breaking into two hundred gigabytes of five million e-mails of information of private security firms stratfor and leaking this information to transparency organization. in these e-mails it was revealed that the private security firm was spying on human rights activists upon the request of corporation and the u.s. government earlier hammett had pled guilty to one count of the computer abuse and fraud act this was a classic case of whistle blowing where. fees and some criminal activity by

a private corporation on behalf of both corporations and the government was exposed to the government and the judge felt that the idea of causing mayhem or causing destruction was incompatible with that jeremy's stated political goals and. we disagree with that and some of hammon supporters have dubbed him the robin hood of our times the defense team inside the courtroom argued that he fought for the better good trying to bring about real change to the system and shed more light on what the u.s. government was doing the prosecution however said that he stole the numbers of sixty thousand credit cards causing a damage of one to two point five million dollars to businesses and individuals if people who have influence and people whom here do not stand up and defend people like jeremy the judge said that he is not you know my bell or dr king i was a civil rights activist germany's every much as

a progressive human this as the spirit of those leaders as we said in the difference if we don't have jeremy hammond's if we don't have that word snowden's if we don't have chelsea manning aaron brown's we don't have a free press this sometimes comes on the heels of the n.s.a. scandal continuing the debate on what should and should not. be kept secret in the u.s. and for how long the unprecedented war on whistleblowers will continue as well as the war on freedom of information and stacy. new york. well how many of these supporters claim everything we stage managed by the f.b.i. which manipulated to carry out attacks on several foreign government websites david seaman's the us journalist has been keeping close tabs on the high tech snooping story he does believe the jailed activist was led every step of the way he was approached by an f.b.i. informant this came out an article in wired magazine this f.b.i. informant is apparently the one who quote unquote cheer lead jeremy into hacking into this organization this f.b.i. informant also allegedly gave them

a list of other targets that jeremy should go after and which he did not go after and when c. once he received the information he apparently downloaded it to an f.b.i. controlled server at the request of this f.b.i. informant so if this was basically an f.b.i. operation they should have probably sent him a paycheck and sort of sending him to prison for the next ten years. caught up in the u.s. spy net europeans are seeing a powerful ally in a different light these days and a couple of minutes we hear from a former chancellor about how washington worldwide snooping is diminishing trust among partners and eating away at the teen spirit.

her gives her a. very hard to take. that that would make her. look the part of.

a terrorist killed along with other militants in a police shoot out of mid to organizing last month's deadly attack in volgograd in southern russia during that raid the details now. say. that confession by the by dimitri happened during a one hour standoff between police and the gunmen for the barricaded themselves. in the rest of region of dagestan during the negotiation the mother was called in to try and come in and help with the negotiation and speak to his son and say you know i given yourself to the police this is when he then confessed to actually be masa minding the equipment that helped propel what happened on the table twenty first to happen of that bombing that happened on the twenty first they killed a six people now during the siege of a woman as well as a child were also. in that house with those gunmen they.

continued off of that three of the gunmen where killed and two of them are believed to have been killed inside of that house they had been on the hunt hunted by the police and were found all of them in that house they accused of orchestrating terror attacks around russia so this really wasn't the end for them at this point in time. well the gun happy culture in douglas stone could be taking root of the disturbingly young age to look at these pictures here kids imitating militant videos and sending the threats to adults ok although some of jokingly just demanding good school grades others there are far more serious all mind reporting on the fears for these impressionable youngsters also online to. lecture interjected this guest university of london speaker was heckled off by

angry muslim brotherhood activists will tell you why it out to. make you use make more sense than follow us on twitter for coverage of the occupied b.b.c. protest in london which accuses the corporation of ignoring the big stuff. right. first strike. and i think. orders. and anti drone rally in washington smart the growing discontent among americans for the country's unmanned air strikes protesters gathered outside the white house claiming that collateral damage as civilian killings of known is too high a group of yemenis who lost family members and want to came to the u.s.

to join the anti drug campaign following in the footsteps of a pakistani family who testified before congress on the innocent deaths caused by the unmanned air strikes obviously as well with the latest rally. these drone strikes victims plan on meeting with lawmakers over the coming days their message to them is clear to put an end to the drone can i kill in yemen they are asking also asking for the memos that justified the drone. graham to be released for those documents to be made public and for the breakdown to get our station we've heard from a young man that says his brother in law and nephew were killed by u.s. drone strikes and we saw our loved ones who were enjoying the wedding last night getting cut to pieces by these missiles he says there is a brother in law was a very outspoken critic of al-qaeda and thought if you were to be killed that it would actually be terrorists by a member of al qaeda but as we hear it turned out very differently here at the

white house. they've been renewed clashes in the suburbs of the libyan capital between militias just a day after protestors tried to kick them out of tripoli it's noticed of that at least forty eight people died during that rally on friday that compromise was shot as they approached the group's headquarters. well but only inflame the situation even more as some demonstrators then drew weapons themselves trip has long been a hotbed of violence ever since his house nation if we did one would get deathly but friday's incident is the most bloodshed the capital is seeing among us militias there are elsewhere in libya and trenched despite public discontent and government demands that they disband the feds consulted binary told me he believes the just too tough to handle now. the only person who could serve our nation united was the revolutionary mama gaddafi yes the western forces the nato

nations the member states saw this coming at didn't knew there would be chaos in the country because there are so many different factions in there they can't seem to succeed there resort to murdering each other they disbanded the military under civil service there is in effect a no central military role to be played by anyone there is no security aside it's iraq two point zero so the there are all sorts of militias coming from different towns and trying to take control of tripoli but that's obviously leads to clashes and murder of civilians in tripoli in brief this morning a train carrying oil has exploded in western kazakhstan after colliding with a fuel truck real mess there it's thought that the lorry was passing level crossing as that train approached causing the crash one of the drivers of the train was killed while another was injured police say the driver of the truck tried to escape he's now been arrested more than one hundred forty firefighters worked to bring the blaze of a control. a suicide bomber has rammed his car into

a military vehicle in afghanistan it killed at least ten it happened close to where next week's talks on a controversial security agreement with the u.s. will take place it was just hours after afghan president declared that the final draft of the treaty was ready now if it's adopted it's set to allow american troops to stay in afghanistan even after next year's withdrawal of international forces. thousands of kurds from across germany of marched in berlin against a ban on the kurdistan workers party the p.k. kate they also demanded freedom for the kurdish political leader and delusional who's serving a life sentence in turkey to the k.k. is fighting to create a kurdish state in turkey but is considered a terrorist organization nonetheless by the united nations nato and the e.u. . the atlantic feels like it's got a bit wider late lead since america was caught prying where it shouldn't have been against europeans who washing who consider washington a close friend peter all of his been talking to a prominent austrian politician about how far the bombs are being stretched these

days them. public relationship between the european union and the united states seems to have hit something of a rocky patch of late and that's why i've come here to vienna to meet with a former european leader and gauge his opinion on the current situation. and sure sol was the chancellor of austria between two thousand and two thousand and seven he remains very involved in both international and european affairs. thank you very much for talking to us just how damaging has the n.s.a. spying scandal been for e.u. u.s. relations it effected the public perception more then the politicians everybody who is a professional politician knows that all countries are looking around for information of the formation is different that the currency in the political area arena but the public perception was completely different because of the public

perception specially in germany is america is our friend and you should never spy on your friend like what good america you said the guy to me this cannot happen and should not happen is it possible or even healthy for an idea of american exceptionalism to exist in the modern age i don't think that. someone is exceptional that of course some think they are exceptional but they are not everybody is exceptional or we are equals we are brothers and sisters and you can be larger or you can be more powerful economical or militarily but at the end we are no longer. on the notion we are on the same ship and we have to steer the same ship we have to find common rules we have to fly and be clear cause for the future this is the important thing and exceptionalism is

a rather dangerous thing it is a little bit outdated by the way to a concept of the nineteenth century and the twenty first century i think we are equals better. can show slip talking to a team next news bulletin can we spend thirty three minutes time shawn said next but after the break to sex the news you know the story she doesn't break in to set the most of the mountain for me good night. you know i love these rare moments where action of something totally sounds positive to share with you the f.d.a. is working to ban partially hydrogenated oils which are the leading source of trance fats and foods and possibly the cause of up to twenty thousand heart attacks

per year across the usa according to f.d.a. commissioner margaret hamburg as you know i would like the chemicals in my food kept to a minimum but the thing is the people at the f.d.a. are surely aware of all the hormones and beef and gitmo is being produced why does the span have such a very narrow narrow focus in fact when you look at all the things that americans consume smoke use that to swear health some get the violent band hammer while others are completely tolerated if you ever talk to a hardcore marijuana smoker they'll tell you but dude weed is better for you than beer and that's the eagle man and they kind of have a point i think there is this is one of those rare instances where a balance position is a really good idea well the country could go the libertarian route and let it be everything be legal let people make their own choices or do what i think would be much much better actually really ban all the things that are destructive to our health both of these paths have positive and negative effects but they are a lot better than our current plan of ban some harmful things for some reason and a lot other harmful things because while they lobby better but that's just my

opinion. the the. what's going on guys i'm happy martin and this is breaking the set so here's some interesting news coming out of ten downing street the british prime minister david cameron has taken heavy criticism of the purging of a decade's worth of speeches and videos from the conservative party's websites that's right i think there's a wave of historical revisionism sweeping cameron's government after all it's hard to prove that you haven't lived up to any of your initial promises if they're completely expunged from the public record now of course party members are defending the move saying that purging the content is a campaign strategy aimed at replacing old messages with new ones but cameron's former speechwriter in burrell disagrees that this is just a campaign strategy that quote the use of sophisticated software to ensure search

engines do not stumble upon these archives slightly just slightly undermines this claim is that as it turns out the party went as far as instructing websites such as an internet archive and google to fully remove deleted pages from their databases pages that these websites often keep for posterity usually with the way to a politician died out of their history advised but now it looks like if you have the money and if you have the power it's as easy as getting divorced from the royal family. it was a. very hard to take. that had sex with the big hair.
