2:02 am
people were against hibs in mosul to witness the aftermath and a word of warning you may find some of the content of his report coming up here upsetting they kept this up for a needy ten months for the. u.s. led coalition and the iraqis one but you can still smell the ashes this probably won't shock you the destruction in mosul a city in ruins it's already been shown you've probably also heard about the thousands killed the civilian suffering what you will likely haven't heard of is the smell it's noisy eating repulsive and it's everywhere the sort of smell that makes us in stink these sick the smell of rotting bodies. the sickly odor permeates near the entirety of the old city under the rubble
2:03 am
hundreds and hundreds of corpses jihad ists as well as civilians families this is what rescuers have collected just this morning three suspected isis fighters two women and two children this is again just the first few hours of this morning from buildings right around us and they're still not done alone most of them are women and children they called this a victory you would never think the smell of victory would make you rich. thirty. five. covering the market even the collection they did what was. it describable this is what they do.
2:04 am
long day route you see it was not that. it's hard work in more ways than one there are booby traps and exploded jet bombs rockets shells and munitions and the bodies decomposing in the sweltering heat. there was no precision here these was carpet bombing annihilation hundreds buried under rubble hundreds blocks in basements starving or choking to death it will take months to dig up all the bodies months more of trauma. what i see here makes me cry you can bring anyone here and they will break down in tears because we are all human beings. was and judy there are some things she couldn't sail camera like the fact that he and many rescuers have trouble sleeping after all the scene
2:05 am
and no wonder it is after all a city of corpses more i guess dia of. from mosul iraq. the battle said to be the largest urban conflict since world war two displaced eight hundred thousand people they know have no home to return to meantime humanitarian organizations are warning of another looming catastrophe this time in the nearby city of tal afar the u.s. backed operation there is being compared with the mosul campaign. think.
2:06 am
it took centuries and centuries to build it in what one of the sort of so-called not so smart bombs we destroy in few seconds i don't think it would be rebuilt ever as it was a means of people's memory people's culture or people's livelihood. to a. new. i don't think actually the american led coalition and the iraqi government have any excuse. if we see god forbid the devastation that had before. would repeat itself and
2:07 am
that would be really crime that would be criminal. for the us media is busy trying to find out who is inspiring the divided sides in american society these days so now a new article in the washington post most just nonsense it says that the far right is being guarded by russian influence jacki of a report. russia is used to being blamed for all things sinister in this world if it's not hacking someone that it's being labeled authoritarian or just flat out criminals but few have stooped to suggest russia backs nazis until now the washington post claiming the nation that lost more than twenty seven million people fighting fascist germany with every family losing loved ones is a source of inspiration for america's neo nazis now you'd hope such offensive claims would be backed up by undeniable facts but sadly you'd be wrong the article kicks off with a couple of flashy quotes one from a former k.k.k. imperial wizard who calls moscow a key to white survival and then
2:08 am
a white supremacist richard spencer for whom the kremlin stands as the most powerful white power in the world which yes sounds bad but these men will use anything to promote their agenda so how is that russia's fault when white nationalists claim inspiration in america's founding fathers as they do does that suddenly make george washington a nutty sympathizer and what about souter after all he's white and powerful too and were sponsored they found a way to drag our tea into it as well. geo political analysts. outposts so just see and sputnik and while spencer yes did appear on our t.v. the post gives the fact that after his hail trump salute he became persona non grata here and was never invited again unlike the us media. and that's not all wait until you hear what other nazi crimes russia has committed into it you fifteen some petersburg goes to one of the most gatherings of
2:09 am
ideologues europe has seen now it seems a shame to ruin the papers theories but the event was not state sponsored it was organized by one party not even the russian parliament with white nationalist gathering in charlottesville just a few weeks ago does that suddenly make the state of virginia a safe haven for nazis no war but sure one right wing form in the country obviously mean russian evil knows no bounds and after all no one else has hosted such an event. we love our race how motivation comes from the hearts. say an american black walked into this room that person really more to all of us than any of us is to each other well we're in the dark now so let's keep digging what else you got washington post kremlin mouthpieces of ensues yes tickly promoted the views of america neo nazis and white nationalists what is that even based on what listen
2:10 am
to the actual words spoken by the russian president on the issue of those who say russia is for white russians only are either bad people or just outright morons or provocateurs plain and simple because russia is a multinational state sounds like a nazi leader to you and i save the best for last the article even ties in the recent tragic events in charlottesville none of this is to say that the coma insurance bill is directly attributable to moscow we have not yet learned of evidence the mystic terrorist espoused proops prue kremlin views so why stop there if actual proof is unnecessary you also don't have evidence that he likes to watch disney cartoons but he probably does and most of the heroes are white but really who needs proof when it comes to blindly attacking russia these days. r.t. washington d.c. . the media is going further suggesting that russian intelligence is using hate groups to escalate the situation inside the us however despite all the conclusions
2:11 am
the author admits there is no evidence to support american extreme right wing media around this line is that. russia is the hotbed of or the preferred country of neo nazis it's absurd first neo nazis are looking to russia neo nazis did they ever hear about this thing called world war two they understand how historically that doesn't seem to make any sense if you ever meet a neo nazi all you have to do is ask said nazi. not cism to me and they can't hear it and the reason why many of them can't answer is that the scene is that we saw in charlottesville we're basically actors that were handed a swag bag here you there just lies there you get an iron cross and you were given
2:12 am
twenty bucks a bus fare in a box line she did a year on nazi americans number one do not understand who these people are. lined where. rights groups are accusing the u.k. of using aid to libya as a means of preventing refugees from leaving that war torn country britain has been spending a large amount of money on aid to that country foreign secretaries johnson pledged to millions of pounds to stem the flow of illegal migrants from libya to europe is also voiced support for tougher border controls to speaking in tripoli he said the crisis poses a direct threat to the u.k. libya is the front line for many challenges which left unchecked compose problems for us in the u.k. but equally illegal migration under threat from terrorism it also means practical efforts to including the work we're doing to ensure that the libyan coast guard can secure their own borders reducing the number of illegal migrants hitting for europe now one campaign manager at oxfam believes attempts to keep refugees in
2:13 am
a war zone are actually a violation of the human rights. simply throwing money at the issue would not be enough what is required is a long sustained investment and the opportunity for people to be safe and protected both now and in the future what we've been really disappointed with is the fact that this just flies in the face of international conventions it is in the refugee convention which all the european countries have signed up to that people are allowed to seek asylum on their shores and they have really abandoned that that's an incredibly dangerous signal out to the rest of the world is the responsibility of these countries and wealthy countries all over the world to step up and actually take in more refugees right now some of the poorest countries in the world a host of the most and yet somehow europe the richest country in the world the twenty eight countries step up and even given something similar to that on his visit to tripoli and pledged the u.k. has continued support for the libyan coast guard service to its being trained by the british royal navy and besides that the coast guard has also been receiving
2:14 am
support from several of the e.u. countries to however it's repeatedly been accused of killing in the buzi migrants as well as attacking aid workers or military campaign manager again says the e.u. support is part of an attempt to close european borders the u.k. and the european union have for the last couple of years made a concerted effort to shut down borders and we see that happening out of the extreme cost to the individuals who are fleeing war and persecution and poverty is part of that for them it's simply a matter of shutting it down on paper they say that they're trying to explore other options and open up safe safe routes to people but we've really just not seen that happen all we've seen is a shutting down of rates which is left people with really few other options then to take risky very the influx of migrants to europe has been blamed for the increased threat of terrorism on the continent so no you politicians are come up with a plan to try to deal with what the president of the european parliament says he wants to establish a domestic intelligence service similar to america's f.b.i.
2:15 am
within the block to fight against terror. he emphasized that member states must cooperate with each other we spoke to any musher who worked for british intelligence a while back she believes the rhetoric is just another vanity project which won't work so is distrust between intelligence agencies they want to keep their sources close to their chest there are different approaches to how intelligence agencies work different powers within each country about what precisely those intelligence agencies can actually do legally within their own country so trying to find common standards i think is going to be incredibly difficult across the e.u. i mean we're looking at countries going from island right across to poland to hungary it's a fast spread of territory it's a vast spread of history and it's a vast spread of different legal systems i can't see how this can work it sounds like another event if you project on fifty or a moscow this morning or before it is going good lot more como can you stay with me over the next fifteen minutes at least amongst the stories ahead the police union
2:16 am
in new york is alleging the offices of the target a so-called blue racism or a more or tell you about that. here's what people have been saying about rejected in the us actually just full on awesome the only show i go out of my way to launch you know a lot of the really packs a punch oh yeah it is the john oliver of r t america is doing the same we are apparently better than two thousand and six and see people you've never heard of love redacted tonight my president of the world bank so hate him but he doesn't really mean it seriously send us an email. local wal-mart selling you on the idea that dropping bombs brings peace to the chicken hawks forcing you to fight the battles that still. produce offspring to tell you that so be gossiping template file for. the bad guys and tell me you are not cool enough to
2:17 am
buy their product. all the hawks that we along with our audience will watch. cases of police brutality of become a new norm in the united states last month a video was released of offices shooting a suspect forty five times. at that instant time to march twenty fourth a year later a grand jury refused to indict the seven officers involved cases when police officers been accused of using excessive force have been on the rise.
2:18 am
you know you can see right here you. amid the criticism of new york police association now that has released its own video claiming offices are the ones being discriminated against the average person doesn't see those things. when they look at me. because i am blue increasingly i'm vilified well that clips. on social networks some said the office is the chosen their profession and so they should simply therefore deal with it is that the police were trying to justify the violence against civilians in the us former new york police department exactly himself says transparency is key to modern day police. the overwhelming majority of police officers are going out every
2:19 am
single day and doing a great but what happens in police is give you example when a doctor kill somebody nobody hates all the doctors but when one police officer killed if it's black white or whatever it is. that reverberates throughout the country where people have a dislike for the police so the onus is on the police officers to be very very careful when they've gone out to do their job every single day and i don't believe the cops come to work and say they want to kill anybody but situations are happening all too often now and maybe it was happening in the past but now we have video cameras and cell phones that expose a lot of stuff that's happened in policing and so police need to tread lightly be more transparent and also our need to be safe and get home to their families like everybody else technology news in china and russia are hoping to clip the wings of giants and boeing but being up to build
2:20 am
a new wide body jet the aircraft is designed a range of twelve thousand kilometers they hope will be able to carry up to two hundred eighty passengers its plan to enter service by twenty twenty seven the projects currently at full scale development phase now the russian and chinese companies in charge of developing these new airline is already enjoyed success on a smaller scale and the technology developed they say will help with this new project it's all come just a few months after the first ever chinese built passenger airliner took to the skies. to one for speed. every plane in the skies has a shadow version on the ground literally behind me is the scene nine one one i remembered a place where technicians and engineers can test out different systems and conduct stabilisation experiments which explains this noise we're hearing in the background and it also contains a flight simulator which i'm quite excited to check out myself some of it. so we can actually see the runway here right in front of you have actually looks like the ok while actually quite scary. whoa
2:21 am
whoa whoa so what do i do first look in the left is the control stick of the plane you can make the plane go up. ok we're going to get started. ok it's moving it to moving we're moving it's getting faster starter. list you can see the speed of the plane so when it reaches one hundred twenty kilometers of her own you can control steep bank. so when it reaches one twenty we're going to take off ok one twenty to go pick up oh we're floating. there we're going oh oh oh. it's actually seem like i'm looking at like. the bird's eye view this is what the city looks like so i can turn left and right and it feels right to be whoever is on my plane will be very very angry with me. just basically pain just like the grass
2:22 am
is not about speed. that it. looks like we're slowly ascending slowly ascending. because. no crash. and the simulator it was so cool and so if it had to be able to pilot it thank you so much for showing me. four should rather well lady thanks for watching this morning on you know in here in moscow. programs going to. right after the screen right. leg.
2:23 am
length. in case you're new to the game this is how it works now the economy is built around currency corporations run washington washington controls the media the media over the voters elected the businessman to run this country business equals. boom bust it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been done before .
2:24 am
yes we had book a clinical place call and they police a key to keep. proper . the phone going to. get him you know who are going to commit their we're going to write that bag it's. just like putting ball clubs such coffee they did open a dodge myself a little while he said i feel we should i should think must like your profile thank you for such but he's. a big guns.
2:25 am
hello welcome to. have you ever wondered what goes through the astronauts mind when he's heading into space and what happens when he's out there. our guest today became a sensation. out of this world activities social media with planet earth. thirty five and author of the best selling books about his time in space chris hadfield my guest today. the world of hyper speed.
2:26 am
of space explorers. chris had felt spacefaring veteran and commander of the international space station's expedition thirty five welcome to the show great to have you with us there chris you were the first officer to actually use social networking streaming your space experience for millions of those back at home now it was a tremendous success was it your idea or was that some kind of mission you'd been given by the command. well i think for all astronaut sophie the experience is so fantastic it's so richard so different that you try and share it any way you can on my first space flight all i had was ham radio amateur radio and
2:27 am
a film camera so it's really hard to share but i might third space flight as you say when i was commanding the international space station we had internet or at least primitive but but internet on the space station and digital cameras and high speed video and so i could share the experience like never before and the reaction as you say was huge i think it's too good an experience too to just keep to yourself white said the guitar he used to play space oddity on board the i assess was put on board the station by the psychological team what for i mean how did the guitar help you in space just saying take your mind off work. when i was on board stanzi mia on space station mir in one thousand nine hundred ninety five there was a guitar on mir made in st petersburg and when i played that guitar upon media i realize just how how important and warm and human that music is and i think the
2:28 am
nasa psychiatrists recognize the same thing and so when the world was building the international space station with all fifteen different partners they agreed that not only should we have all the scientific equipment and the health and food but but maybe some some mental and and soulful kind of health and that's why they put the guitar on the international space station this time it's a canadian guitar which is nice made in vancouver and it's still up there right now sophia it's on the space that it's been up there must be for one hundred thousand orbits now the most traveled guitar in all history but it was lovely to have a chance to to play and think about where we are both in a place and in history and music is a wonderful way to do that well target about where you are and talking about psychological dangers i mean through one of the port holes you could see home so to
2:29 am
speak right and then through the other that's an endless voigt was that difficult to cope with i mean what mental issues did you face while working on the s.s. . i think that's really a matter of perspective sophie because here standing on the surface of the earth if you look down your home but if you look up it's an endless void so it's it's kind of how use you you are to the environment that you're in onboard a spaceship the world is is in the distance and you're surrounded by by the eternity of the universe but there's there's a great beauty to it and sort of like an infant leaving the home where you're taking your first steps and and starting to experience the rest of everything else and and there's a great sense of wonder and a lack of understanding but also dawning awareness of just tell.
