wife sentenced to eight years behind bars for being part of an illegal armed group she won't actually go to jail until her youngest child turns fourteen and she's only one right now less than twelve months ago her life was old very different i was twenty nine when i left i went to turkey first with my husband i never thought i would end up there. within seven months as a kid that was living in syria and pregnant with her third child she says her husband had been drawn to islam and a better life. he told me it was safe to go there he said it wasn't how it was being shown there was no bomb he said no war but the reality turned out to be far worse than anything on t.v. they lived for two years in the city of top gun which at the times was under isolates control for them and they moved to rocka and she spent every day living in feet.

even my girl knew she was only eight years old but she could tell the difference what was coming and american hercules plane a fighter jet drone she could tell by the sound of it. where they hiding yes well they either went downstairs or just simply stayed at home i took them out into the hole and we laid on the floor so that any shrapnel wouldn't hit us zagat had struggles to share her story she tries to stay emotionally distant from the past and speaks quietly rarely looking into the camera she says she wanted to return home right from the start i told my husband that i want to go back but i couldn't live at the moment i started talking about it we had fights he told me if you want to leave leave but i will not let you take the kids away and you he was able to do that you had that sort of character and i was afraid later on when they were living and rock her husband was killed in a drone. leavings that he died all alone with three children i started looking for

ways to get out but it's not that easy you can't just leave that place it all has to be done in secret there are people that can sell you out trick i only talk to those who i knew well and one day i was told that there was this wrote that there was a way out. that claims she had no way dia the life she was leading would leave her on the wrong side of russia's anti terror laws. i stayed at home all the time i had my children i had no time for anything else i was at home taking care of my kids. she was one of the seven women and fourteen children brought back to russia in the autumn twenty seventeen as part of a companion organized by chechen officials to repaginate the families of men who went to fight with islam ik terrorists. i am very grateful to everyone who helped

launch this campaign to save many women and children. but while they were lucky to escape from the war in syria to put a rival in grozny she was detained by police three months later she was convicted and sentenced for being part of an illegal armed group. and while the law she broke is designed to help thwart terror attacks some people argue that family members of radicalized individuals should not be targeted. these people need rehabilitation they need to be close to their family members under the care of their mothers they're under huge dress and prison will not help them they will only meet them more harsh i believe it's wrong to put them behind bars for now that good at leaves with her mother in dagestan she has to report to the police every month and can't leave the region it's difficult for both her and her brother to find work as they're on the official. police list it means they all have to get

by on their mother a small salary as a post office worker despite all this they could add sas she's just happy to see her children say little girl i was literally suffering that because i was unable to provide food for my children he told me constantly mom we are hungry they were colliding i chose them and now he's absent congress let's go to the merry go round lloyd let's go to the seaside we always go after where i don't get it now we go everywhere. mommy's heart and so my lovely who say fuck. it was you. mention a question artie dagestan. so with the question of how to treat so-called ice old wives proving divisive we debated the issue with our guests. the shouldn't be allowed to return home they have left the safety of this country and gone away to fight with. whatever you want to call them and the should not be

allowed back into this country one of their going to do and to come back here you know we've got enough people in our prisons now radicalized in our yoav if you brick a law especially criminal laws in england and you break it somewhere you can actually charge but that charge has actually to stand in court we are not responsible for the actions of their husbands or their or their kids or their son the. as a terrorist this is not their responsibility they're made that decision now to share that they went out there didn't know what they were going out there showed didn't know what the husband was door and ridiculous there was radical they've got out there if the culture that they're in at the moment has a death sentence so be it that shock to them but we cannot just charge anyone because we look we think she what he was she was a wife she knew about everything she could not make a decision some of them the worst soldiers some other were recruited yes we agree

on this but let's differentiate between and isn't and being who has been a terrorist and who's been a criminal this is very critical because we want to go the cycle of violence and all of that. and all of a tremendous honor the adults there make their own decisions on life placed. shed so their lives where there was going what you went out shopping what you are not. a holiday i tell you i don't know where i go and i am actually not exactly what was going on there i give an example he tells his wife we go into a trip to holiday to turkey ok this is this how it started sometimes we go to a trip holiday to turkey to south of turkey in turkey you are stuck we are going to syria why because this is what islam is asking us to this is what we have to fight you are my wife you have to listen to me if not i would divorce you and you have no papers how are you going to turn back home if you take your word. places like this i need to take you passport away from you how are you going to turn home seriously well that they're going to turn out so i don't want to know why they should not

allow me to tell that around that i think i think about what he was going to do the brain would not allow that try them in that decision now just said they went out that didn't know what they were going out that show didn't know what the husband was door and they shout so ridiculous there was radicalized they've done all that if the culture that they're in the moment has a death sentence so be it that's up to them they have made that decision they've gone out that we do not want these people back here so it was on monday that we showed you the story of two russian sisters found in iraq you'll finish you can now watch it on our you tube channel and we're bringing you our third and final story on how refugees and return easier adapting to life back at home i'll be on friday.

join me every thursday on the alex simon chill and i'll be speaking to us from the world of politics or business i'm show business i'll see you then. you know world of big. and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the bath shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks.

good to have you with us today it has been ten years since the war between russia and georgia broke out after georgia attacked the autonomous region of south. back in two thousand and eight the russian army intervened to stop the military aggression and after five days of full scale conflict a cease fire agreement was reached and russian troops in fact remain in the region to this day to ensure peace as a result of the conflict at least fourteen hundred civilians were killed however a decade on the united states still does not recognize the independence of the south all abkhazia another region that proclaimed independence from georgia. bar

position on the russian occupied georgia regions of. and also south ossetia is unwavering that remains unwavering today the regions are part of georgia they are not part of russia and the united states continues to support josh georgia's sovereignty its independence and also its territorial integrity despite western politicians putting the blame on russia for the two thousand and eight zero seven year war the e.u.'s fact finding mission establish that georgia was the one who initiated the conflict i mentioned also found that georgia's actions like the shelling of cities have violated international law and a new documentary will recall the most tragic moments of the conflict for now a quick preview you can watch it unfold right after this program. i'm not trying. to. soften the gripe you got of this the past.

is not so. much will you go. to the solution is concerned little sister this is. only seems. the chic. all of. them. at. the last. thirty. plus it would seem. to. eat but i. think it will be good in order to feel well this is a good thing you know i'm going to. look at all that i'm going to. hear the

mainstream media they reported that rush started the conflict and said nothing about soccer surely opening fire on the night of the beginning of the olympics in beijing a couple years after the war i believe that eventually other countries would learn to recognise that georgia was at fault in this war especially after the european commission came out and said that georgia started the war and i was very disappointed that they didn't. the pentagon has banned the use of geo location tracking applications by soldiers saying they can put missions at risk. effective immediately defense department personal attributes it from using geo location features and functionality only government and non-government issued devices applications and services while in locations does it meet as operational areas the

memo comes after revelations earlier this year that secret american bases can be easily found when searching for jogging tracks on the global map of the strive a fitness platform that started in two thousand and seven has more than one billion jogging and cycle routes logged by users around the world but close analysis revealed concentrated patterns in remote areas and northern syria and afghanistan which it's claimed are likely to do troops keeping fit strother has defended its data saying all users have to opt in to being shown on the map well retired u.s. army major general paul the daily told us that such restrictions will only increase in the future. you can take your i phone your other so phones know and others can track you family members and so on but when it comes to operational areas there are troops are fighting in or operating and we certainly don't want anybody especially the enemy to be able to track their location target them you have to keep in mind

many of your soldiers have their own private cell phones and to use for push you know matters to family also you have government issued so phone satellite phones that are given to the troops in the field used to have to be restricted only from the standpoint of well there are communicating with family and other members i think it's going to be more restrictive in the future because of where technology is today to twenty eight dean and the ability for others to tap into your phone conversations or actually through social media or facebook or whatever it may be. a member of the senate intelligence committee dianne feinstein has found herself in the middle of a spy scandal after reports that dr who walked with her for twenty years was a chinese spy feinstein says the f.b.i. informed to five years ago that one of her employees may work for china and she

fired him but she could apparently have more links to beijing as american explained . meet diane feinstein the top senate democrat who's leading the russian vest a geisha an ending for middle flow for all the kremlin spies seeking to undermine american democracy what we're talking about is the beginning of cyber warfare what the russians have done is unparalleled in its depth and breadth to spearfish to hack to provide just information propaganda apparently she knows how to deal with spies media reports suggested that chinese intelligence once recorded one of her staffers to spy on the us steal it secrets of then send them back to beijing but once feinstein found out she says that she fired him the every i told me five years ago it had concerns that china was seeking to create an administrative member of my california stuff. i took those concerns seriously learn the facts and make sure the

employee left my office immediately whether there was chinese spying or not she seems pretty happy to promote the chinese interests on american soil in twenty fifteen if she and other senate democrats oppose ted cruz's effort to read name a street across from the chinese embassy after an opposition activist and feinstein justified her position saying it's to promote better relations with china when ted cruz found out he was in breach to talk about putting aside petty partisan differences and coming together with a voice of compassion madam president dr liu is in a chinese prison and the same your senator from california is standing in objecting to recognize that recognizing this nobel laureates bravery is standing in objecting because presumably it would embarrass his communist captors perry will another chinese opposition activist accused her of being deaf to china's allegedly rights violations citing her family's business interests congress gave me good supports

but only some of the sentences i was made to stand for communist china based on family all business interests for example senator dianne feinstein her husband is a board member of costco and he has other investments in china you see this is the kind of person who is never interested in my work now when it comes to spies and media reports go along the lines of trump's aides meet someone who knows someone who called someone with alleged ties to the kremlin so trumps definitely a russian spy but a democratic party senator who angers chinese opposition activists has a husband with business interests in china and isn't boiled in fand all involving connections with a chinese spy she's still an icon of the antitrust me and i should say it's more of the typical double standard and hypocrisy that we've seen from the us mainstream media dianne feinstein is a double standard personified basically dianne feinstein. mine does this on a lot of issues where she's got personal interest so she's accusing the other side

from a position why they head of the russian collusion investigation she's accusing the other side of exactly what she is herself guilty by talking about russia by costly promoting this myth that they are able to hide their. several decades worth of corrupt activities these are people who do not care about double standards they don't care about getting caught because they're confident that when they are caught the u.s. mainstream media will cover for them and it's got to stop and we have plenty more stories for you from all around the world to come in about half an hour here when he international hope you can join us then. when lawmakers manufacture consensus instead of public wealth. when the

ruling classes protect themselves. with the financial merry go round listen to the one percent. to ignore middle of the road signals. to leave the room dream real news is really. what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president interim or somehow want to press. the to the right to be press this is what the forecast for you in the morning can

people get back i'm interested always in the waters of my colleagues. question. my brother could write a review that scared it from my mouth hole of doubt. that. all of us. are moving toward a shoot on google so he went on the first date. our son was born on august the ace two thousand and eight the danger or just started a war against some of the sensor residential areas were shown by how the system grant multiple rocket launchers. tried to regain control of the rebellious republic

. we were here at the height of that war and we've returned after ten years we'll meet people whose stories we're told and we'll learn how their lives changed. since to my house my cost them outside the house. on kill also. i mean that's the. got of this the power. and out of this they.

just look at which of the loot. is the least the most of it's of mistrust. the seals trustable of steel the study in the ocean will produce enough. with this. earth as it is. now that is a dunedin and. past one on top of things. to. grow it is a curious will. this will. confuse those prematurely liver disease be it where you live for this or that when you know

what it is the very blood. we put in there just in the here. or it. is natural so let's. lose your. this is the truth. says. martin luther. because. you

are my quest to. see. the truth is no system in this. earth to. it wasn't the first military conflict between georgia and south ossetia things started to heat up in the late one nine hundred eighty s. the soviet union was falling apart and the republics were striving for the right to self-determination the nationalists even came up with the slogan georgia is for georgians schools were forbidden to teach in the acetylene language south the city rebelled declared independence involved broke out. in one thousand nine hundred two the warring parties signed a peace accord but failed to come to an agreement russia brokered the peace talks since then russian peace makers have been helping to keep order i asked god how far.

more of. the same it's. done for the bunkers one i'm going to zoom. past on syria. in two thousand and eight maya best diavolo worked as a nurse at the russian peacekeepers base is stored in the way of the georgian army . the base came under massive shelling from the georgians for many hours. always there was the. machine and. this whole logical. move this deliveries of the cereal. if those cars were looser either

e.t.c in the. sewer scorns. resisting. how to me and her use up lots he will develop walls follow the spiritual school earth in. research. discovery so. my. was over. the role. was in exploring the real story at the top of our new regions civil. but you have a. dog or a museum. i mean you really just do this for you know. mio was also seriously injured she was unaware that reinforcements were fighting their way through to the peacekeepers and that's how son was with the military. he

would run into an ambush near the peacekeepers base and be badly wounded. the peacekeepers couldn't hold the georgian troops bank for too long and by the afternoon of august the eighth georgian turning said already entered see involved. do they. believe closing down. all of. those genius the. women when he was nine his house was hit by a shell which caused the walls to fall down and the roof to cave in the left shoulder. is to the. ground.

this not only the bushes are. filling up. the bowling green one. village came under shelling for a few days. after the war there were no houses left on damage to. shoot to kill to see down the street. just a month. two years ago police are very. softly said what i thought. was. this for you grow older sister all of you and you fall faster. going faster most of

us. catch us trusting promoted to me first. it's the kids still going to play at the place that was once their home even though a new house was built for their family just seemed. to offer you support i suppose truly just a three month usually school bus through them. jim. says one and his parents managed to flee the village just in time and avoided the oncoming georgian army they didn't know the road was under the control of georgian troops. coming out of the south past the end of the could. not trash full force made smart. enough classrooms to push in the. thousands of civilians fled to russia but not everybody managed to get their own homes many were killed on the way to.

the city in this way incapable of defending themselves on their own against the will train georgian army people died in skin. the peacekeepers were surrounded and couldn't help. russia looms the operation of forcing georgia to peace the military will find their way through to relieve. george interest and saakashvili claimed russia had to tank georgia my country is soon self-defense against russian aggression russian russian troops invaded georgia they've been bombing georgia from numerous warplanes and specifically targeting civilian population and did you take a gamble your government launched its own attempt to retake so sasha we did it. we didn't have the morning of the eights my wife calls me and says that they bombed
