very good morning to you this is our thing international. criminal trial into the downing of the mh 17 passenger plane opens on monday almost 6 years after the malaysian airlines flight was shot down over ukraine killing all 298 on board a subsequent probe allege that a missile launcher which hit the plane was transported from russia the probe has been heavily criticized as biased. reports from the netherlands. it's a trial it's set to last more than a year 3 russians and the ukrainian are accused of helping to bring a book missile launch from russia into eastern ukraine where it fired the fatal shot that brought down the boeing 777 the 4 suspects are not charged with

personally firing the missile the men all deny the charges international arrest warrants have been issued for them but they won't be here and will be tried in absentia some of those that we expect to be here are 13 secret witnesses whose identities are being protected and that's because dutch prosecutors say they face significant risks to their safety but even before the court has heard a single argument some are treating the trial as a story that already has no stone left unturned brushes probably involved and if involved they're probably going to cover it up 51 percent of russians and directly involved are right now it looks like it's russia's fault because. it's russia's fault i it's clear some don't need to wait for any court verdict to draw up their own conclusions russia claims this kind of coverage has a clear intention in the beer and media campaign has taken an unprecedented scale

of russia and its citizens are presumed guilty that is unacceptable it has been launched in the last few days prior to the hearings in order to compensate for existing gaps in the evidence and to conceal the attempts to manipulate the facts so that it fits with a chosen theory for the prosecutors say they have evidence that the book a missile system was transported from russia into the donetsk region of ukraine in the days before it was fired now russia says that's not true it's presented evidence that the fatal missile serial number can be traced all the way back to the 980 s. when it says it was transport. it to ukraine then a member of the soviet union and it's there it stayed after the collapse of the u.s.s.r. but the joint investigation team into the mh 17 tragedy has russia says ignored what it believes is a crucial piece of the jigsaw russia was also refused full participation in the

probe and as such says it will not recognize the verdict reached here by the court despite the fact russia was denied being a full participant of the joint investigation team since the very 1st day of the tragedy the russian federation has actively assisted the investigation and during the past year is conveyed to a dutch colleagues a large amount of data connected with the mh 17 crash unfortunately most of these materials were ignored by the joint investigation team this includes a test by the book manufacturer to try and pinpoint the location it was shot from. russia claims that test shows the mis are likely came from an area controlled by ukrainian forces but the findings were checked it by the j.i.t. with its report stating that russia and ukrainian rebels were responsible.

we have established that the russian federation was complicit in the downing of m h 17 because they made available the weapon that was used to shoot down the plane we have all the material to substantiate that the official investigation also received criticism from malaysia 43 malaysians died in the catastrophe which involved the country's national carrier but his thought is they were not given full access to essential information that was contained in the black box of the flight recorders while the country's now former prime minister has raised doubts. on the very beginning we see too much politics in the idea was to friend hold hold this happened when. you seem to be concerned that it did on clay need to be on russia many relatives of those who were killed in the mh 17 disaster are

expected to be present at the trial so this is a court case about finding the truth and perhaps finding closure for a devastating chapter of their lives some have already crane for not closing its skies over a conflict zone in the east of the country but whatever the outcome here regardless of whether the 4 men are found guilty or innocent nothing will ever bring back their loved ones. r.t. them. schools of south african women were sterilized without the consent of public hospitals a disturbing new report is revealed we spoke to one of the victims who found that the uterus had been removed only when she tried to get pregnant 11 years later. 1st tour of the baby was too big and they had to perform and i c. section i remember when i walked up i asked them why they have each bandage on my

tammy then they explained that debris was too big and then 26 to make good engaged after trying for about 4 to 5 months our dad. without me being able to conceive with any thought i should go see a doctor i really just thought it was just my land and fertility issues dr will prescribe medication our fine and when it goes there that's really learned that i didn't have to reassess at all i don't think there was anything wrong with me i didn't have any complications before birth and i didn't have any complications after birth for some reason for i'm known reason they just decided to move my uterus i'm seeing it and non-greasy in because as i'm sitting in this moment i don't know why i was leading this to alive when i met with dr ed ridge who confirmed that he was there when the procedure happened he also could not give me the answer all you could say to me was that they did the operation to save my life

i don't know to save my life from what. the commission for gender equality study investigated complaints from 48 victims south africa source their realisation as a way to fight hospital staff forced some of the women to sign consent forms according to world health organization south africa's suffering from the planet's largest h.l.v. epidemic more than 4000000 women are hiv positive according to the report illegal sterilization was carried out in 15 public hospitals between 20022005 the study was complicated by the fact that hospital staff tried to hide documentation over the victim we spoke to says that she is not even hiv positive. i'm not hiv positive our high although it offices they're quite aware of this and i'll say this in camera they are quite aware of the practice and you know doing anything in the news been held accountable it seems like our doctors about of the lol i didn't sign any

papers and i couldn't have signed it because at that time i was a minor and my mom who was there with me all the time also didn't find any concern for no woman deserves to go through what i am going through and what you're all going through is literally literally lived i'd not want to my daughter to be singing the same song that i'm singing today because if i'm bearable with the pain that comes with this if i'm but it's unbearable and most of all rise violated my rights as a human being will rarely to my right is a woman were violated my reproduction rights were taken away from me and no woman ever answer that regard should go through what we are going through. we have contacted south africa's helpful 40 for a response we will let you know if they reply the health minister now wants to urgently investigate the issue. sometimes reelection campaign this

fall they 3rd lawsuit against us media in just 2 weeks the president's team is accused c.n.n. of false and defamatory statements about alleged russian support for the upcoming vote its campaign is already sued the washington post the new york times legal actions are calling for millions of dollars in damages against the use of the 2nd wave of russian meddling in theory now around the 2020 linked. this is it we've got to make up our minds on what the hell is going on i that putin is a demigod of chaos so nothing various so evil sue malevolent he puts the juki to shame or leftwing media is clinically insane you decide the president is a russian operative. that sounds like the description of a bad hollywood screenplay but it is real and trump are picking their opponent this

is not who we want on the ticket person suddenly has got all of our political class every single one of us including the media exactly where he wants one publication decided that this level of crazy isn't koku nuff they ventured to google where a new one has gone before and blame russia for everything not sure what to believe in god the fever of mistrust is the desired symptom of a powerful virus a confident supping worm of mutual suspicion that russia has planted in the operating system of american democracy whenever an american disagrees with another american a russian but is behind it the washington post has reimagined history they suggest that democrats and republicans haven't actually disliked each other for decades haven't tried to impeach each other and barassi each other smear each other for decades that putin made them hate each other apparently washington post has never

seen american news they don't need putin to confuse voters the new york times says let's call the disease the trump virus to which i say let's rename dimentia the new york times do you see any thing except trump on these other cable networks plonk as networks the you and i think you know i don't and i think it's a real disservice to american people c.n.n. and the times can't be trusted on any topic because they're derived filter spits out the same answer on everything orange man bad see journalists working for old publications like to think they're better than you smarter more righteous that you are really it's who we need to be 3rd what to believe in them c.u.z. . will they are elite you know what i think donald trump has cast himself in this remarkable role he's running against the elite the elites

include the leaders the republican party the new york times a new york times these elites have fed you russia gate for years when you came out and said he found no evidence of trump colluding with russia did they apologize of course not elites don't apologize in the words of the washington post it's lot their fault they told your lies it's russia's it's simple logic putin wants the divide america the washington post others actually divided america but it isn't their fault it's putin's because he wanted it the us has divisions because it's one of the least aquittal societies on earth in terms of economic disparities to blame such things on russia it does at least 2 things one it prevents us from looking at ourselves and our own problems but also creates tensions with russia another nuclear power unnecessary and i think of this

russia's scapegoating is ridiculous talk about this information this steel dossier you know the one about trumped the p and the prostitutes which the media discussed for years despite it being obviously fake the washington post now blames russia for it russia they say was behind the 90 russian dossier the reason that makes no sense to you is because you are not arrogant enough and could admit to making a mistake at leats they caught the dossiers author chris steele has also resurfaced and he's upset not because he ruled a fake dossier but because no one took it seriously this is the kind of ara gance these people are infected with. i was surprised that very little of what i had discussed appeared in the final miller report the reality check is that russia is

the host tile state as it is run at the moment it is out to destabilize the west ultimately and the tism is incurable it's chronic and the severity of symptoms is variable my only hope is the next time a washington post journalist catches something with his zipper he doesn't blame putin for it but it's a small hope the papers generally represent the elderly. and they death and they generally represent elite opinion just repeat the claims of our political leaders without question or comment and certainly they have helped manufacture this russia gate hysteria. it's 75 years since the us bombed tokyo in the deadliest outbreak in history and the break will be asking people in america and japan whether they even know about what happened.

the world is driven by shaped by. the day or thinks. we dare to ask. seem wrong. just don't. let me. get to shape out these days. and indeed. the trail.

find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. monday marks the 75th anniversary of the u.s. bombing tokyo the deadliest air raid in history that resulted in around 100000 civilian deaths a number comparable to the atomic bombing of hiroshima the same year on the scale of more been checked for the people in the us and japan even know what happened. america's use of atomic bombs at hiroshima and nagasaki is common knowledge however there are other atrocities from that historical period that have slipped out of the memory monday marks the 75th anniversary of the united states launching bombing raids against tokyo.

u.s. officials knew full well that many civilians would die and that did not deter them flying fortresses will be dispatched immediately to send the papers cities of japan on fina that won't be any hesitation about bombing civilians it will be worn out the idea was to demoralize the japanese population by inflicting death and misery on an unimaginable scale the bombs that were used were incendiary and a city made mostly of wooden structures caught fire rather quickly you're going to deliver the biggest fire cracker the japanese have ever seen major general curtis lemay the mastermind behind the operation said that the victims were scorched

boiled and burned to death the usa went on to use this tactic of massive bombing of civilian areas in both korea and vietnam 75 years later do americans have any knowledge of this atrocious act of war let's find out on the biggest bombing raids i know. to russia and nagasaki where nuclear bombs there were 2 hiroshima noone actually it was the tokyo bombing raid in 145 that had the highest death toll is not the tokyo but you know the thing about we often don't think of the crimes committed by our own side during the war why is that because americans don't do anything wrong when wonderful we never torture anybody we don't waterboard which is the wonderful loving people who believes everything. government tells us the people who decided at the end of politicians they just take it and say ok. we might lose a lot of civilians or whatever and they still do it because for damn power is more important than what than the people former us president 2 barack obama visited her

and nagasaki tacitly acknowledged differend this impact of using nuclear weapons there was some survivors however those who did not perish in the tokyo bombing raids have been widely ignored so i know about the bombing of tokyo on the night of the 10th of march but only from history books honestly i don't know anything about the bombing of tokyo i know the bombing of tokyo but i'm surprised that it's already been 75 years our parents and grandparents never told us about it so we only know what we learned from t.v. and newspapers i don't think there's enough attention being paid to this in our education in japan. i know about the bombing of tokyo but i have forgotten the exact date i think the media should tell us more about this tragedy not just about hiroshima and nagasaki. from a theoretical point of view i see why the americans thought this was a price worth paying to end the war but personally speaking i'll never be able to

accept this as 820-0000 people were killed including women and children on the only it's sad that very few people in the west seem to remember the suffering and innocent victims of that. it looks like the people there remember only these tummy bombs dropped on japan now there is no consensus among historians about whether this massive bombing was actually necessary in order to defeat japan however it is widely acknowledged that mass death and civilian casualties on such a scale should not be forgotten caleb martin r.t. new york. the latest survey by the iraq and afghanistan veterans of america has revealed the paul. levels of suicidal sentiment among service members the study shows almost half of the suicidal thoughts since joining the military around no veterans have already taken their lives iraq war veteran and antiwar activist vincent emanuel says he's not surprised most of the veterans that i know i

think have indeed had those thoughts and i think your mindset changes quite dramatically throughout your service said i think after being deployed and especially if you. had seen or experienced combat and i think. after those deployments and then deploying multiple occasions i think all of this plays a factor in whether or not. better ins are more prone. to commit suicide to become violent to become addicted to drugs or alcohol people come home and lives in relationships and families are put under incredible stress because people are coming home and after having experienced all of those horrific things often turn to very destructive behavior to cope with those things. and with 40 percent of veterans also report a lack of job opportunities after they leave this post military veterans say that

they face a loss of purpose they struggle with reintegration into the community and normal social interaction health problems and getting treatment or other issues is that the manual again says getting out of wars globally would help. the u.s. government unfortunately is not doing enough the us government has done more over the years the veterans administration is in much better shape today than it was 15 years ago when i 1st started using it but that's not because the government took it upon themselves to do it it's because thousands of veterans and family members of veterans stood up and fought for those things and of course the wars continue to go on so we need to deescalate all of the current wars we need to withdraw from afghanistan completely we need to withdraw from iraq we need to withdraw from syria we need to withdraw from libya we need to withdraw forces from somalia and all over

africa. and that would be the best 1st step if we don't the the best thing you can do for veterans is to not create more veterans. well stocks are taking a heavy hit from the spread of coronavirus all prices plunged monday after the crude producing group opec failed to agree to a cut in output to study the markets i think is to me has more now on the mounting economic losses will wind. a few months ago no one had even heard of corona virus but now it's causing a collapse into chaos and panic spreads around the globe at a pace the disease could never hope of achieving panic attack new alarm bells ringing out of the corona virus outbreak in this country a corona virus has unleashed a wave of panic across the country it's a nice government has. shut down across the country as it struggles to cope with corona virus as

a result people are in fear for their lives they've slashed their travelling cancelled their vacations and seemingly bagged all the toilet paper and keep supplies in sight as they await the approaching apocalypse but guess who suffers the most local and international business which rely on said people to stay afloat as you can imagine finding a way to make money and give people a sense of security is no easy task and many businesses have already taken a hit one of the largest annual multimedia festivals in the us south by southwest has thrown in the towel as the whole city of austin declared a state of emergency over fears of the virus spreading and a former presidential hopeful who was due to attend expressed deep concern over the cancellation also worrying for awhile money i'm disappointed not to be going to south by southwest but my disappointment is nothing compared to the economic harm and lost opportunities to everyone who was counting on south by southwest food wages tips business and published city the economic losses keep mounting over

a $1000000000.00 have already been lost due to the cancellation of major global events including google i o. the geneva motor show and mobile world congress among others even hollywood has held the release of the upcoming james bond movie ironically titled no time to die with cinemas across the world closing their doors especially in china the film industry is at risk of losing over $5000000000.00 businesses are desperately trying to find ways to stay open italian theaters asked audiences to sit 3 seats apart as a. caution before the italian government calls all cinemas nationwide anyway the mayor of boston even tried to guilt trip so many from pulling out of the pax east of that is a large international company you have an opportunity to set a good example zoe doing technology you can show that you are motivated by i think it's clear as a leader in gaming and culture you can show that you believe in connection isolation there are even talks that the 2020 olympics in tokyo might be held

without spectators as the markets keep hemorrhaging money with global stocks plummeting by roughly $9.00 trillion dollars some have proposed radical solutions to the crisis maybe we'd be just better off if we gave it to everybody and then in a month that would be over because the mortality rate of this probably isn't going to be any different if we did it that way than the long term picture but the differences were really wreaking havoc on global and domestic economies needless to say the proposal drew an almost universal backlash online rick some tele has already prescribed in make sure everyone is exposed to it and let the rica's die really rick great then i suggest you be the 1st in line to receive the virus that isolate yourself and if you get sick no problem is just another statistic he can step up and be the 1st to serve his country while he did quickly apologize for his insensitive remarks it still begs the question how much will the coronavirus cost the world and is that price too big to pay. thing with our international this
