draws up further sanctions against russia over the crisis in ukraine. are they welcome you with r.t. international now there's nothing directly tying russia to the downing of flight m.h. seventeen u.s. intelligence officials have announced during a press briefing they believe it was the work of antigovernment forces but the officials say they aren't even sure of the nationality let alone who did it artes and to see it sums up the briefing. u.s. intelligence officials speaking on conditions of anonymity really under thinking veil of secrecy are coming out and saying that they have absolutely no evidence and no proof showing any kind of involvement on behalf of the russian government when it comes to this tragedy certainly this is something that's
3:02 am
a very big development in this story because this does not really fit the narrative that the u.s. has been pushing in this whole ordeal as of course meanwhile certainly the investigation is really just beginning to take off importantly we've heard from one u.s. intelligence officials say we don't know when name we don't know rank and we're not even one hundred percent sure of a nationality this keeping this in mind they are continuing to say that it's likely this was a mistake shoot down conducted by the appetite of fighters on the ground in eastern ukraine but it looks like because of so much secrecy and these reports are really are you have been interpreted differently certainly in the u.s. media we seeing journalists going so far as to say that they have don't even have any certainty at all in terms of this being specifically the anti kiev fighters we know that these u.s. intelligence officials are saying that they are basing these claims on social media
3:03 am
and posts made by the ukrainian government and that's certainly not a first when it comes to the ukrainian crisis on monday russia's defense ministry has said also that they have proof that there was another clean in the air next to the malaysian airlines flight before it was shot down they believe this plane resembled a ukrainian military jet and they have been demanding comments or an explanation from kiev and kiev of course thus far has denied this we also do know that russia's defense ministry has also said that they have images of ukrainian missile systems within the zone of the crash american maintains that russia is trying and to go forces in the east ukraine something most go strongly denies washington the opinion is partly based on social media posts that investigative journalist spends one finds worrying. we now see the ministration stepping back walking back some of these comments about the involvement of russia the administration saying we don't
3:04 am
even know that the training happened in russia but again we're pretty sure we're not going to tell you who these sources are again they're all speaking anonymously but we're pretty sure this is all happening in russia again but not offering any evidence here's what we're going to see happen is the administration kind of gives this kind of soft explanation that they don't have evidence but with the knowledge in the way that says but we really know media picks up on that they'll begin to report a little bit and then within a few weeks we'll probably see that this becomes a non-story in many ways because it now no longer fits the narrative that the administration was hoping for and that media was hoping for and they'll move on to the next story but the netherlands which is leading the investigation into what happened to flight m.h. seventeen is asked britain to decode the black box flight recorders recovered at the crash site or on course that has more now on the investigation from the don't yet screeching. now most of the bodies of the victims of flight sim a seventeen have now arrived in the city all part of call for the netherlands
3:05 am
a forensics team are now working on the scene there and interpol are there as well as trying to identify the bodies now we're waiting for the bodies to arrive in the lead netherlands perhaps on wednesday according to the dutch prime minister meanwhile the always see who are working here on the scene as a monitoring mission said i'm like a in the first day they have now been granted full access to the sites and they're also saying that malaysian experts who arrived here are also feeling completely unrestricted the malaysians have expressed gratitude for the access they received today they were quite happy with it. in fact they said they felt quite protected. they have also said they have not seen any evidence of parts at least major parts missing from any of the crash sites we've heard it today the spokesperson for the always see mission also added that perhaps it is now time
3:06 am
for those with more experience to finally get here to the next can start investigating and he also mentioned that there yet see here from the international aviation commission meanwhile the black boxes that were recovered on the scene that were initially given by the self-proclaimed defense forces to the malaysian authorities were later delivered to the british aviation authorities who will now be conducting an investigation along with the netherlands. and these are actually live pictures is the passengers bodies are being transported to harkov city airport where they are being loaded on to planes destined for the netherlands there the remains will be identified and handed over to relatives these are live pictures we're getting now coming from apple. but as we've heard the bodies of the victims are to be transported to the lens and pay to all of us is that for us. it's here at eindhoven airport that the first
3:07 am
bodies of those killed on board malaysian airlines flight seventeen will be brought that will be on board a dutch military airplane just behind me you can actually see an australian military transport that will be heading in the opposite direction of as part of what's being called a an air bridge that will make sure that all of the bodies come out of ukraine and enough equipment goes into the country so they correct investigation can take place now once those bodies arrive here at eindhoven airport they're going to be taken by refrigerated truck to the town of health to be more correct to a military base just outside of the town of hilton now that's that military base is the headquarters the main training center for medics in the army now this was something that was promised by marketer the dutch prime minister on monday during a press briefing he said it was the number one priority to get the bodies out of ukraine and begin that identification process and it seems that that's now well
3:08 am
underway and they'll be bringing some kind of rest by to those families who lost their loved ones on board this tragic tragic flight. well the investigation into the mh seventeen downing is still in its early stages but some us in the news outlets have already pin the blame they keep it cues in russia of both the crash and the cover up sometimes mistaking the wildest speculation for moscow's official take. as more. the media coverage in the west has been largely slanted against russia public opinion of course response to that kind of coverage but look sentiment is that russia is probably involved and if involved they're probably going to cover it up that's where the public sentiment is in the c.n.n. poll the american people got it right in terms of who's to blame here folks fifty one percent said russia isn't directly involved but only the stakes are high whoever shoulders the blame for this atrocity is going to be the target of global anger and right now it looks like it's russia's fault because. it's russia's fault
3:09 am
. it's quite clearly the latest twist in this propaganda war the russians through their ambassador here in kuala lumpur presenting their version of events to the malaysian media there's also been attempts to discredit russian sources of information c.n.n. put out a breakdown of what it called russia's propaganda the first item on the list is this it says the russian take passengers were already dead when put aboard the m h seventeen but when you follow the link on this page it has an article in russian which reviews all the apparently quote unquote fake fur germans and conspiracy theories that are out there that's what the article says specifically about the theory that the bodies were dead before the crash it says literally then there is information which is simply impossible to believe c n n presents it and calls it the russian take it is not the russian take in the same breakdown right after this dead bodies theory c.n.n. puts russian defense officials showing evidence that ukraine had the capability to
3:10 am
shoot down the plane moscow is now saying ukraine did it showing evidence that it had the capability to do it contrary to what here is now say that claim is brushed off as propaganda information is now politically charged on all airwaves it seems many journalists have already handed down their verdict in washington i'm going to check on. the western media present their damning cries is the voice of the whole world investigative journalist agency she says the press is trying to protect the interests of europe and the us this is typical of the western media every time america's or britain's or the european union's interests are at hand they want to see america things or america will see the international community wants america washington believes that they have the right to speak on behalf of the international community if they don't they should be devolved to speak on behalf of argentina or brazil or many. soko or other countries throughout the world
3:11 am
so definitely is just a way of carrying out their psychological warfare to believe that they are voicing the opinion of the vast majority of people of the world over when it is not the case that they were merely repeating or seeing what is the belief or the interest of america of london or of the other nato countries for example. meanwhile the u.s foreign policy chief has promised a new blacklist of russian sanctioned by europe will be announced by thursday moscow's economy could also be targeted. as more president putin in particular has direct responsibility to compel them to cooperate with the investigation that is the least they can do russian backed rebels quite likely a russian supplied weapon. russia can't wash its hands of this the context for this tragedy is russia's attempt to destabilize a sovereign state violate its territorial integrity and and train militias e.u.
3:12 am
foreign ministers have agreed to extend its blacklist of russian individuals or putin's cronies as they call them to be targeted by a new wave of sanctions as well as russian companies in the energy defense and financial sectors another list of harsher so-called tear three sanctions will be drawn up but they'll only be imposed at a later date if russia fails to stem what it says is a flow of weapons a placement and militants across the border as far as the measures taken by the unite the union are concerned this is a logical consequence of the decision of the european council and the lack of progress we've seen on the russian side since then cross the pond the white house has long been pushing for the e.u. to take a harsher stance against russia and it welcomed it's not just towards more punitive measures even pushing for a full arms embargo france's said it will honor its contract to provide russia with
3:13 am
one aircraft carrier but could still back out of sending a second to moscow washington also trying to take advantage of the situation differently destroying the french and euro. talking about mr i don't think we're going to stop the cell anywhere the french are going and saying this is final answer will be given in the talk in britain the home secretary unveiled a new public inquiry into an old wound the death of former f.s.b. agent alexander litvinenko in two thousand and six. it's all part of this russian phobic campaign and the u.k. government will be hoping that bringing this back into the limelight will trying to hold people against russia and so it's a political decision at least. right all ministers reportedly said the timing of the probe was a coincidence but one that's likely to add to the already high tensions boyko r.t.
3:14 am
. well and and then ski from the brussels based reporter magazine says that a human tragedy is being exploited by diplomats for political gain whatever the official and i say mainstream press says the research and to standing in clarity that is a geopolitical game and america the united states are back to the great classics retaining of russia of course they're also the allies of the united states in europe who are following closely the point of view or the politics of the united states this are catastrophe is used to such extent for political means that we we can truly establish the truth because already now the acts first have to fight against the opinion of the white house and it's the most powerful country in the world. media training army has launched a new round of shelling in the rest of the net region military officials say they

3:18 am
well again welcome back now the u.n. has released a staggering report saying that over the past two days one palestinian child has been killed every hour all in all about seventy five percent of all the deaths in gaza civilians according to the estimates so far more than six hundred thirty palestinians have been killed and twenty nine israelis have lost their lives i. don't know. if i could talk a lot of. that a lot of talk about the first was that. i. was there i was well a norwegian doctor volunteering in garza wrote an open letter in an attempt to draw
3:19 am
international attention to the horrific scenes witnessed by the medics and he describes lakes of blood in emergency rooms and a never ending flow of wounded and skill with here also appealed to western leaders to go to gaza in person and see what's going on he says that spending one night at a hospital where he works would be enough to change their minds how he fare as more . with israel's navy to the west tanks in ground troops to the north east and south and his modern air force all the while overhead there is no shortage of extreme risks for gaza's paramedics and other first responders while we're on our way to middle gaza and the taxi drivers that we were using basically got a phone call saying his home all the building in which he lives has been destroyed this is what's left of it. the last one of these really called us ordering us to evacuate our home and just have to. left the home they bombed it reducing it to the
3:20 am
state you see it in now i'm happy that nothing happened to anyone from my family or any neighbors. despite losing his home our driver insists we continue our journey as we travel south from gaza city strikes and shelling become all the more visible but the palestinian red crescent ambulances haven't reach some affected areas leaving civilians distraught but entering such areas can be deadly for paramedics ambulances have come under fire in this recent escalation one medic has already died and it's happened before a paramedic died in the two thousand and twelve war more than a dozen others died in the two thousand and eight two thousand and nine conflict while in the last five minutes of being here at the al aqsa hospital in middle middle we have seen three israeli and aerial vehicles fly over and we've seen just as many dead bodies around here. in order to palestinian paramedics do their
3:21 am
job israel called a unilateral cease fire in an area that seen heavy strikes scores of ambulances fire engines and diggers rushed in to help the many injured and to recover bodies. of missiles struck the surgery department which is home to casualty and trauma patients causing many deaths and injuries. you know no first responders are internationally legally protected workers fearing that's not enough they've been joined by foreign activists volunteering as human shields but even with that protection for our own volunteers shielding in the civilian evacuation and even the death of one teenager apparently as a result of multiple i.d.f. gunshots exhausted and overwhelmed with people needing that attention gaza's paramedics have a seemingly impossible job to do all the while trying to avoid being part of the
3:22 am
body count themselves. the israeli embassy in the u.s. state of chicago palestinian supporters have voiced their anger over the bloody events in the same time on the opposite side of the street a price is right the rally took place a heavy police presence ensured by demonstrations when went off pace for they although small groups and can't confront each other. i am going between israeli government and how mass this resulted in hundreds of lost lives is the focus of today's breaking the set with marty. news outlets are still trying to spin the story that these horrors on the ground are all justified by israel's right to defend itself go to the washington post and see the headline that reads how hamas uses its tunnels to kill and capture israeli soldiers and most disgracefully an op ed in the huffington post that reads the disgustingly predictable that game of hamas i obviously don't condone violence on either side but placing the blame of
3:23 am
every civilian killed by israel on hamas is disingenuous at best and at worst blatant mr action. human rights watch has accused the f.b.i. and the u.s. department of justice of creating terrorist activity or abiding citizens the group study found found that the bureau sometimes went as far as funding potential terror acts encouraging people to commit them many countries that would be considered entrapment but not in the u.s. port ny or he explains. amid america's war on terror hundreds of american muslims have been arrested prosecuted and imprisoned for attempting to carry out terrorist attacks but according to a report released by human rights watch most of the high profile terrorist plots
3:24 am
that were foiled by the f.b.i. were actually manufactured and orchestrated by the government to talk more about this human rights watch report on day one by one of the co-authors tarkus smile thank you very much for joining thanks so much you guys found that the government was actually creating terrorists out of law abiding citizens house but we looked at twenty seven cases that we thought would give us a good idea of what's been going on since september eleventh and the cases we looked at were made up of some sting operations as you say and we looked at other cases where overbroad material support laws were used to prosecute people for things that they said the f.b.i. was playing a major role instigating and also in offering many of the tools that the individuals who were later arrested and convicted needed in order to be successful and pulling through with the plot that the f.b.i. accused in europe for example would define this as entrapment how is the u.s.
3:25 am
government allowed to get away with orchestrating crimes inducing people into committing them and then prosecuting them for committing those crimes why is that considered entrapment in the u.s. to prove entrapment defense first needs to prove that the individuals that the defendant was induced to commit the crime in the case. for example a two thousand and four case out of new york city so rod said you know i could understand why a palestinian who had his home attacked or his family killed might feel the urge to do something and potentially even blowing stuff up that was used as evidence of predisposition to commit a terrorist attacks here. what you see is a community that's being targeted for their very identity and that's something that should give us a lot of parts a lot of target smile thank you very much for your time as they say that. human rights watch says prosecutors use the fear of terrorism to sway the jury. the
3:26 am
informant might spend weeks or months developing a relationship with these people sometimes showing people inflammatory photos of violence perpetrated by americans and encouraging them to plan terrorist attacks and then the f.b.i. of course provides the means to commit the attacks frequently they provide and her weapon they have provided money to allow people to travel to locations to plan a terrorist attack so in some cases we've documented f.b.i. essentially manufacturing the entire plot the prosecution can admit evidence totally unrelated to the defendant but about terrorism in general and that inflames the jury the jury is scared of terrorism what we see is law enforcement targeting people at times based on idea. and speech that should be protected by freedom of expression laws now we are looking at live pictures here from city airport in ukraine some of the bodies of passengers on board the stricken malaysian airline
3:27 am
and will be flown to the netherlands a little later on the remains will be identified and handed over to relatives and as you can see from these pictures the bodies being sent off with maybe a tree on. coming up next the image seventeen tragedy is up for discussion in today's cross talk here and i see international. waters. under me because. this is the most toxic food you have in the. drama zones in the judicial inquiry further more restrictions.
