11:34 pm
the stories. thank. you there's been an outcry in the u.s. offered emerged a saudi national with suspected links to al qaeda was able to live freely in the country for seven years lawmakers are now asking why the state department granted the man a visa artie's caliber weapon as the details. may be hard to believe but the alleged al qaeda terrorist has been living in the united states for seven years unnoticed saudi national naive flower flogged is now been arrested and at this point members of congress want answers about how this was allowed to happen in two thousand he attended an al qaeda training camp in two thousand and eleven he moved to oklahoma on a nonimmigrant visa joining his wife in two thousand and sixteen he was even able to get a pilot's license however that was revoked when the f.b.i. finally started an investigation now he is in custody awaiting trial on
11:35 pm
a number of charges the indictment charges two counts of these of fraud the third gun charge of self launch with making a false statement to the f.b.i. when he denied ever having associated with anyone from a foreign terrorist group he may not have been able to enter the united states of authorities had actually been able to pay more attention it turns out that back in two thousand and one his fingerprints were actually found on an application to a terrorist training camp furthermore his father was named as a person of trust in an al qaeda document now at this point that data was not able to be analyzed until twenty seventeen. i'd say there was a number of breakdowns going back to where the original intelligence was maintained and stools he should have been on the watch list you know who was on the list oh marmont teen the pulse nightclub shooter recently released cell phone records indicate that just days before the attack he was considering whether or not to
11:36 pm
attack disneyland he was on the f.b.i.'s radar screen after making threats against his coworkers and claiming to have ties to jihad ists however after ten months of monitoring and three f.b.i. interviews they determined that he was quote not violent or dangerous after he did carry out his attack the f.b.i. said he had self radicalized on the internet we're working hard to understand the killer and his motives and his sources of inspiration. but we are highly confident that this killer was radicalized and at least in some port through the internet so the internet did it ha well remember that florida school shooter apparently he left tips on the internet that he was planning to shoot up the school people called the f.b.i. about it but they never bothered to look into the matter if there's a term in the protocol was not followed. the information was not provided above and below office. that no further investigation was conducted that. this is an ongoing
11:37 pm
failure of the united states and it's not just the u.s. it's also in europe to properly vet these people and the f.b.i. had ample warning that the orlando attacker was a threat but because he was muslim but they did not want to look into it they did not want to seem that they were targeting these certain religious groups even reports that come out with school shootings in the united states where the f.b.i. many times received a phone call warning them bout the shooters and nothing happened because of that the f.b.i. did not follow up so i think it's not so much a lack of resources at it as it is a lack of knowledge or understanding about threats that matter the most. ukraine has seized the assets of one of russia's biggest gas producing companies more on that after the break. local blogs telling you on the idea that dropping bombs brings peace to the chicken hawks forcing you to fight the battles. you socks for the tell you the subject
11:38 pm
gossip the public lifestyles. has been telling you pull it out by. these are the hawks that we all know what. it's been almost fifty years since we've had human beings on the surface of another planetary body and i hope that we could actually put together an international lunar exploration initiative much like we have the international space station consortium and together the countries of the world cooperating with the private sector could afford to get back into real space exploration and i think that would that would create a real a lot of excitement. welcome
11:39 pm
back ukraine has started seizing assets belonging to russian energy giant gazprom following a long term dispute over gas supplies. joined kevin owen in the studio to discuss the story. well it's one of these cases when you can easily say not again russia and ukraine could be on the brink of an all out gas war again as you said kiev's begun seizing the assets of russia's energy giant gazprom but a few days ago gasper said it was scrapping all sales and transit contracts with kiev however there is something for you to bear in mind no matter what happens in politics all the difficulties between kiev and moscow the ultimate
11:40 pm
reality has been that ukraine has been relying on gas imports from russia all along for all these years eastern and central europe to a massive share of these gas supplies is delivered through ukraine if there's jenga tower of contracts for purchases the transit and all the political issues to top all that off collapses staying warm in eastern europe during this very cold spring as we all know could become an issue but a blip company has been asked me said it was a blip in the past believe ukraine was siphoning off some of the guys will come out of it i'm sitting ok because russia wants to be seen as a reliable partner doesn't it so to try and get this kind of the catalyst for where we are now was a recent call well ukraine's nafta gas and russia's gas from have been settling their disputes and a stockholm arbitration court and in the last few years there have been so many
11:41 pm
issues and between these two but just a short while ago one stockholm tribunals decision forced the firm to pay the russians a sum of about two billion u.s. dollars that was basically a gas bill that they hadn't paid but then the latest decision was that russia's gas brom must pay. ukraine's nafta gatt is more than four point six billion u.s. dollars and that was for abusing their position as a monopoly and if you do the math then moscow and he have more than two point five billion us dollars and the boss is aghast extremely unhappy they were saying that the reasoning for that was completely unfair and that they're just bailing out a shattered economy which many times as we've seen just couldn't pay for the gas that they were buying now bitrate is justified the decision by the sharp
11:42 pm
deterioration in the ukrainian economy where categorically against the grain is economic problems been solved expands so russia ukraine gas wars have happened before and it has previously led to energy crises in the region those in the west as you were saying for now they don't have to worry about anything and again it's not in any of russia's interests to spoil this reputation as a reliable partner but previously kiev has been caught for illegally siphoning off russia's gas intended for europe so there have been disruptions in gas deliveries but obviously russia had to protect its political and economic interests in technically it wasn't gas rumsfeld. head of nato yen stoltenberg says the alliance plans to maintain its military presence in iraq as long as it has the approval of the country's government played to all of the wrong

11:44 pm
of iraq have spoken their legislative body voted and said that we ought to leave and i think that's a grand idea the president speaks for our government as well because they're in collusion and they depend on each other i wish that the american people would wake up and say enough is enough fifteen years and we were been longer than that in the afghanistan. because of the disruption and the chaos in iraq al qaeda has moved in so they weren't a problem and saddam hussein was not friendly with with al qaida it's a reaction to our policies our policies stir up these hatreds in the organizations of the radicals. our governments whether they're of the democrat party or republican party they're generally indorse the so idea that we have this moral obligation to straighten everything out and they use it as an
11:45 pm
excuse but there's always other reasons for doing this there's a group of people who see some secondary gain and there's a lot of profits being made and oils and pour and all these things it's just time to come home we don't mind their own business and we ought to save the money and we would be as strong as ever if not a lot stronger with our independence. i'll be back with the latest headlines in just a bit off and now meanwhile for more on all of our stories is washington. your
