a small town in donetsk they found after the bombing ended and they went outside to check for damage. that it was. now kiev is denying it uses any banned weapons in its crackdown on the eastern provinces but that's what they have been deploying for example the crate is like these are left by ballistic missiles they strike a pre-determined target within a range of up to three hundred kilometers with a variety of warheads which include chemical as well and along with widely used grad a rocket launchers the army apparently utilizes your again more powerful system but it strikes is seen as highly inaccurate in the area of damage can be up to forty two. and of course mortar shells have been raining down on eastern regions for several months now when they hit their targets they split into pieces causing
12:03 am
widespread damage and severe wounds and people a military expert charles shubert says whoever is arming the military and aiming it should bear the responsibility for hundreds of deaths state scientologists use weapons of course particularly as they say they're acting in self-defense but at all times states have an obligation to safeguard civilians that means to say that they can't target civilians with these weapon systems and they can't target areas in which civilians if you like. predominant that it becomes a disproportionate attack and of course the launch of a weapon and here we're talking about ballistic weapons allegedly being used that's how the very large warheads places even more onus of responsibility on those using those weapons to ensure that they don't disproportionate harm civilians and in these kind of urban battlefields that mark the east ukraine if you like it's almost

just want to keep building allowing saudi arabia qatar and iran to fund millions and millions of pounds worth of the building of mosques in this country where they have them addresses where we have a hundred thousand four to sixteen year old children who have been schooled in these much research which is encouraging complete non integration within the society. welcome to the kaiser report imax kaiser you know benjamin franklin once quipped the great empire like a great cake is most easily diminished at the edges well beny the nation you found
12:27 am
it has become an empire and that empire is indeed diminishing at the edges but also collapsing at the center of the giant cake fart of corruption stacey. max yes we're looking at more headlines today about this collapsing pyar because you know obama earlier in the week he invited all these african leaders he invited fifty african leaders some of them couldn't come because of the ebola epidemic across western africa but they have a result on the loose african leaders to counter growing chinese influence ben rhodes a u.s. national security advisor denied it was an attempt to play catch up with china and i'm not sure what the substitute take part so far but i'm i'm waiting with bated breath when you mention catchup of course i think of john kerry got your boy he's got fifty seven varieties of ways to cure the world's ills but china is on the move they're making a move people are getting concerned they want to restrain the well we're going to get to the can far and the next headline this one is the.

12:29 am
of america in africa is to bomb stuff so i think the africans are thinking and i think we go with the build stuff rather than bomb stuff and the u.s. is running out of bombs you know that the their supply lines of bombs to various countries that they're bombing iraq libya. afghanistan gaza you know all these bombs that the u.s. is supplying they can't get them to the to the spot fast enough so that could be again the american empire on the edges of the fraying part. yes well i mean by the way the u.s. doesn't have any ports or rail infrastructure any of that themselves they don't even have it for themselves so of course are not going to build it in africa because that would be communism that they would be delivering there they would say or think so the article also points out that the u.s. has a right to be concerned because they have good reason to be concerned china's trade with africa routes to two hundred.
