more on this well if we can speak to our correspondent ecostar enough now ego so what conclusions have the russian investigators arrived at russian defense ministry have done they have looked at the serial number shown by. the joint investigative team a few if some time ago and now basically what they are what they have done they have matched it with their own internal documents that used to be top secret they have been classified them and they have shown basically all the fate of this rocket since one thousand nine hundred eighty six when it was indeed produced back in the u.s.s.r. you can have a listen to how they have described it. but what you don't get those are what's considered the momentum the manufacture date of the missile is the twenty fourth of december one thousand nine hundred six it was transported by train to the military base two zero one five to today this base that still uses missiles of this type is in the ukrainian district level.

well in fact we both have seen we all hear all journalists. members of the investigative team have been invited to have a look at those unclassified documents because they brought them in the room i had a chance to check them out obviously there were behind this indigo because well they date all the way back to nineteen eighty six after all at least and so there was only the first part of what we've been shown by the russian defense ministry the second part was they analyzed the videos apparently was shown by the investigative team before and they have what the russian defense ministry is saying is that those videos have been tampered with that they were given to the official investigators. they were faked essentially they a talked about how perspective doesn't work how the lightning and coloring doesn't work and that basically the images of the truck with the book missile launcher

though they were apparently according to the russian defense ministry put into the other videos afterwards so the videos were tampered with according to the russian defense ministry and the third. this whole thing was we were we were played a an orgy a recording which was said to be a conversation between a ukrainian colonel and the some other officer and while there were lots of bombs in russia's indicating that before deciding to send warplanes to libya the government assist the type of conflict norway was taking part in that failure could hardly have had more serious consequences the country now lies in ruins seven years on libya is still being ripped apart by rival governments well wishers armed to the teeth and islamist militants just last week i saw play in response ability for a shooting that killed two and wounded ten more at the headquarters of the state oil company and the top off the water there were invited to come over for

a world government by the way the world. perhaps and surprisingly some politicians in norway are now distancing themselves from the decision given what we know today this was a war for a regime change norway should not have participated in the libyan war when you look at what happened next with libya becoming a terrorism hotspot this is not a decision to be proud of. of course they're not the first to come to that sorry conclusion the u.k. parliament got there two years ago this report determines the u.k. policy in libya before and since the intervention of march two thousand and eleven was founded on a road use assumptions and an incomplete understanding of the country and the situation and barack obama infamously admitted the aftermath was the biggest

mistake of his presidency but that's likely to bring little comfort to the civilian still reeling in the shattered nation to a senior researcher at the norwegian foreign policy institute who believes politicians didn't understand the consequences of the intervention. arc this is where lisa and the coalition government are and they are them and this is what has happened at all for the support they need and therefore they are expressing from the former he gets it also they are saying that they didn't understand but this was true which was that with. what may have the definitely if. they were mainly viewing these were the military and police to the south and the fault for the leader of the standing in the red as the now if you look at any of the main ideas. argued by almost all the key. players in this. obviously there are more dems will be on the humanitarian

reasoning you're. basically interested in this is stephanie's back. this is marina's back. this is maria's back and he we spoke to janice steve about letting a visit to the village at all from her day about the situation in syria and lebanon western t.v. screens fail to show and that the upcoming battle. there i talked to the civil that started the national defense forces and they spoke at length about how the village has been pummeled by missiles from terrorists and it's been on a daily basis over the past many years and they said you know they've been suffering nobody is talking about it and they're looking forward to the liberation of it because it will ease their suffering it will it will mean the sation of these

terrorists. so these are the kind of things that the media which is busy talking about corporate media which is busy talking about it live are completely negating happening on a daily basis in my day. and what syrians i've spoken with around the country on previous visits and currently say they want a restoration of all of syria to peace and they want an end to the terrorism that's been plaguing them. or as we saw formerly in eastern before that in aleppo and it's their right to live in peace and it's also their right and the syrian government of syria's right to fight such terrorism because we're not talking about the mythical moderate rebels we're talking about al qaeda we're talking about. and these are terrorists that have been torturing civilians and executing civilians wherever they happen to occupy. while the syrian and russian governments have been using

tools of diplomacy if you'll recall they've opened humanitarian corridors they've offered amnesty and reconciliation to terrorist who lay down their weapons but on the contrary it's these factions within the lives that are saying we will kill any terrorist militants rebels that fake whatever they want to call them we will kill them if they participate in amnesty and reconciliation so clearly yes there is a desire for a peaceful resolution to this and the syrian russian government has been offering tools for such a peaceful resolution coming up after the break a woman in new york is charged with making up a story she was the victim of a hate crime by trump loyalists good details for you after the break. you know world big partisan movies lot 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 smart we need to stop slamming the door on the back and 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. make this manufactured to send them to public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the famous merry go round be the one percent. they can all middle of the room sick.

the media portrays donald trump is a racist homophobe is enough of a bigot not to see and i think that when you crave attention and you hear all these things naturally you're going to get attention and sympathy if you say oh oh you know this is true look what happened to me and by saying that for her trunk supporters surrounded her told her to get out and then slashed her tires the next morning she had her ten seconds or fifteen minutes or whatever you want to look at it you have attention it's a narrative driven by the media that this is going to happen to you if you're black and if you're a minority and if you're mexican if you're an immigrant or if you're gay this is you're going to be attacked that's what the media and the left is telling you and she just went with the flow. some news reaching us this hour a police man has been stopped in the belgian capital brussels the incident happened

will not abide by the international criminal court those who suspect defacto support for al qaida in syria from the usa along with u.k. may think there is reason for washington to fear international law but the usa is not alone in opposing the international criminal court six other countries oppose the very creation of the i.c.c. saddam hussein's iraq u.s. u.k. backed israel then saudi backed yemen get off its libya. as well as china the fact that obama's usa would not join is perhaps no surprise given his use of drone assassination but what about india going to be something to do with the nuclear armed line of control and disputed kashmir. the sounds of pellet gun shots yelling and smoke from tear gas canisters filled the air in several towns in indian administered kashmir this week muslims are celebrating the eat or festival of sacrifice leaving many streets quiet. not here in shrine. joining me
