2:30 am
thing that would be very, very challenged the united nations representative as cold on the united states to answer for abuses inflicted on inmates of the guantanamo bay. personally, come, she said as an apology and the promise shot down of the detention facility are long overdue. torture was a betrayal of the rights of the victims of the $911.00 attacks. the us government must urgency, provide judicial resolution apology and guarantees of non repetition. i still have serious concerns about the continued detention of now 13 men at still there and the persistent arbitrariness that provides their day to day existence. i observed that after 2 decades of custody, the suffering of those detained is profound. and it's ongoing. every single detainee i met with lives with the unrelenting harms that follow from systematic
2:31 am
practices of rendition, torture and arbitrary detention well that known as get familiar with located in cuba. the facility was established by president george w bush, who was administration in 2002 during the so called war on terror reports of abuse and torture of the cameras. international alarms, an amnesty international claim that prisoners human rights were well simply being district got it at this present of the
2:32 am
with the you and the special rep it to us comments on the question of all of the attention of i give them our prisoners does follow numerous us promises to close down the prison. they just pledge came from the bite and white house at last february, the strongest assurance was, were actually made by the former us president brock obama closing gets mo, it was a big part of his presidential campaign platform. as i have said repeatedly that i intend to close one to auto mall and i will follow through on that when i was elected in 2008. i said we need to close once out of i continue to believe that
2:33 am
we've got a close one of the process whereby guantanamo will be closed. no later than one year from now for my us intelligence officer, john kerry who joined me earlier in the program. he said, well as good the us in special laboratory speaking up against guantanamo bay, there's no way for the world to hold those behind the prison to come comfortable for the cry. it's an important international issues the united states is not in the main stream of civilized countries on, on these issues of, of torture and rendition and secret prisons and, and keeping people without charging them with a crime or without allowing them to have to face their peers. inner port court room . so it's, it's good that the special rapid tour spoke up the previous special rapid tour.
2:34 am
noon smells are also spoke up and also issued reports. but the shame of it is that that i think the united states is going to just ignore it. there's no way to hold the united, the united states kind of what the sad truth of the matter is that the, the position of you in special wrap a tour for, for torture, does not have any teeth associated with it. there's no enforcement authority. so he or she can give speeches and, and issue press releases and write reports. but there is no way to compel the united states uh, to uh, to follow the law. what it says is that some countries are held to a certain legal standard, and others are not any other country would be held to it a tougher standard. but the cube and the defense minister as hell told with his
2:35 am
a russian counterpart in moscow his days off to the failed fog and the military mutiny. during the meeting he placed the blame on nato. it was expansion for instigating the coward, conflicting new, luminous, se 90. but it may just desire to continue expanding towards the borders of the russian federation. let to conflict and force to boss. so to launch a special military operation, the united states and some of its l. lies have repeatedly used to force the invited sober and countries an interview. it's in the internal affairs because those countries did not submit to the gem and it can serious and defend the independence q based against such a policy. off he, pa, chrissy, and double standards. he said it will make us take responsibility for the consequences. so if it's aggressive military doctrine, beyond native borders, which dressings piece, security and international stability company. i was discussing the story with a professor of latin american and caribbean studies, daniel shaw,
2:36 am
he joined me earlier. the size, the cuban russian relations have played an important role in helping the island nation survive on circumvent decades of restrictions and sanctions. i want to 1st say i was in havana recently and what i heard from the cuban people over and over and over is that they would be starving if it wasn't for moscow, if it wasn't for the russians and the deals around tourism around uh we in in, in food, in these different um, ways of breaking the us is, uh, a unilateral blockade, the cuban said that they would be starving. so i wanted to start with that very human know, because that shook me uh to, to the core to hear that are over and over again. we see high level meetings between the russians and the cubans. this is obviously not a pleasant news for those in washington that was to suffocate
2:37 am
blockade. it makes things extremely difficult both for this island to link only 90 miles away from the florida keys in for this powerful country half way across the world of russia. and how important the club of sanction in black 80 countries continue to find one another to washington chagrin, legislation is working his way through the us congress to stop funding the un commission whose role that is to investigate is there any crimes against palestinians in order to justify the proposal, one republican congressman inside a continuous criticism that israel has been facing within the united nations. these royal is the routinely attacked and undermine to across the entire system while the world's was to human rights abuses. to remain, frankly, relatively, i'm touched, the effectiveness and the we just failure. so the united patients and young bodies do not familiar with support. the un commission of inquiry investigates violations
2:38 am
of international law, particularly human rights abuses, and has taken name it israel for its options against palestinian. and while america is the u ends largest funding source, the proposed budget cuts would amount to over 7, a $100000000.00. the same time, washington is also looking to eliminate the actual office of the special representative of palestinian affairs. that room is inside the us state department . now over a 100 pounds of standards have been killed by as ready forces and the 1st 5 months of this year double the amount with the same time last year. and we discussed this with a pro public opinion dr. vista from jerusalem, who talked about 2nd western support for telling me and the supporting the is a prototype, is aggression against 1st thing in the support thing. is that a violation of the human rights of palestinians, the supporting the violation of the international law?
2:39 am
but is it a, this is what america is when it comes to, to put us in. yeah. even if it is that i wouldn't throw on the stomach bug, and on guys up, the americans will do nothing. and they will keep on throwing video and, and not taking any serious step against them any as a to give a shit. so this is the equation in, in, inside both congress and, and the white house that americans keep listening to a fax to the jewish lobby in washington said these eats, they, keep listening to that. i mean, globally is a, goes to the present and it's in yahoo. and they don't want citizens to the front of city and they don't want to see that for us to me as well. israel is that moving forward on plans to build yet more jewish settlements. on palestinian land, this is despite the international community, even america actually condemning those moves. as in legal we understand more than
2:40 am
5000 high was that to be built but for now no specific dates have been revealed. and the us has also stopped funding assigned to the per search with is really i academic institutions in the west bank, but no idea. and frankly no confirmation invest retaliatory in any way. but it doesn't seem though, to be back in the middle eastern country when it comes to is unit less real expansion. you've been very clear about this, that unilateral actions such as this one such as settlement advancement will only insight tensions. and under 9 the prospect of a 2 state solution. well they, we were speaking with a policy and an analyst on his ready affairs, who says washington's criticism of the jewish settlements on palestinian land has nothing to will not lead to any action being taken against teller. if it to the additional position, they always say that they are against the policy, but they make no action. can they? and i to be say, if it's stub at all, is it? i assume it is where you can bring it back to their time from building
2:41 am
a donation to sit there for months. and so is there not any organization working on the links for 3 months and at least bank? no, they don't do that. so if they feel please donate these action visa activities go on and they do nothing except the issue and get statements from them. and because of the policy, then they are going, i think, by keeping by doing this the out on me and cutting june, which is what i have to continue. it's fully they we where we see no action google has always to india is supreme call to lift a n t trust measures the country is taken against the company. almost all of the smartphones used in india are powered by the android operating system that's basically owned by google. however, last year, india is competition commission step 10, and a q is google of exploring his position and find the country. so the company had engaged an unfair business practices off of the tech john, put a number of restrictions on the device makers, the news,
2:42 am
it's software. and as american tech companies ultimately dominate world markets, alternative platforms have a hard time finding. just a few of that piece of the pie. it's one of the main topic, stuff with the buy it, and the latest episode of 360 viewed with the kendra palm. if you look at the major media, social media platforms that arose during the early odds, they're all american social media companies, right? the pay tick tock, even if their new offices are preferred by, by cancer based in, you know, single 4 or, you know, they're moving to ireland. they're still a chinese company. and i think that gives a lot of legislators room for balls because whether it's facebook, instagram or take talk, we by downloading these apps and using them, or giving them a lot of data on who we are, what we do, where we are,
2:43 am
and all that data can be used and manipulated. i mean, i think this is the implicit understanding of a social media platform is by engaging in it. we are not their customers, we are their product. every thing that we do on it is then be sold to advertisers. you know, the big question is, can these platforms be used to manipulate us in certain ways with misinformation, this information? what not? and those things, you know, they may not care about how your, you know, your cleaning tips and all those things. but they might care about your location where your base, they might care about the content that you're engaging with to see how some sceptical you are to certain points of view. i think it's a talk is a easy target in some ways for that kind of by part is in you know, anger if you want to call it back or skepticism, may, it may be
2:44 am
a better word. the know, i should think it is now to era and the way the country is dedicated an entire week to what it cools. exposing us double standards on human rights to around is also wanting to shed light on washington's covert actions and the country off to the historic as logic revolution. that's a doesn't explain that right here with our correspondent use of july, a recounting and exposing the american human rights. this is the theme of this conference held in the wrong name that shedding why somebody us rights abuses, any of our officials, rights activists and victims of us sanctions on the wrong are present here to provide physical evidence. so be us as dual take on the issue of human rights, maybe patients and and this is, was a function of the and usa cause i life as
2:45 am
a be patient like other people that's today are here at our patients, butterfly patient tell us nutrition. and they have a lot of problem mind about their drugs in death situation from one or 2 years that we can we can do our button binders are drugs from another country. china diebold with the u. s. claims that medicine is exempt from the sanctions. but here's an interesting point. there are different types of sanctions direct and indirect. but the type of sanctions that have never been addressed, or the networks sanctions, which do not allow me to conduct banking transactions with entities that transform my payment to the pharmaceutical companies. such sanctions prevent me from working with medical firms. event comes as part of the annual patient and the american and
2:46 am
human rights were a box, the series of tragic incidents any was holding within the same time frame when hundreds of iranians were killed in 2 years after living. 3 of the 1979 is bomber trevor. those rights activists here site in all of those instances, the footprints of the us can be traced. one of the most tragic incidents was the 1988 down in governor on an airliner by the u. s. navy, which killed all the $290.00 people on board the doing plan a 35 years on there. one is, are still waiting for an apology from washington. i believe that that's a captain of the ship. william rogers may be, was his name rogers. i know his last name is rogers. uh, i believe that he knew it was a passenger plane and he was ordered to to shoot it down. and unfortunately hundreds of innocent people lost their lives. it's, it's a great tragedy. i, i'm not aware. it's maybe maybe they did,
2:47 am
but i'm not aware of the us government ever paid any kind of reparations or damages to the iranian families that set lost family members on that flight. in 1981, the notorious terrace group, the majority in account organization known as the m k o m u k. well, i'm the headquarters, other ones as well on the cook public party during several officials including your own. then just as chief mohammed, the history activists, it'd be enter your 3rd group has enjoyed significant support from washington drop. sort of all you is that the chevy and one of the in humane actions carried out by the moon offer? can you, would your dean have led their supporters to stop packing them? despite their 40 years of support for the m k. o. the west had to finally retreat from the terra group and can no longer rely on them. the us as use the m k. o as a criminal tool over the past 40 years, but now it has come to realize that it has stained its reputation with the m k o image and this is forced to us to back down on the groups. the n k o was also
2:48 am
allegedly responsible for the assassination of top your one of your nuclear scientists into 20 ten's wherever on accuse of cecilia to have engineered guitar attacks. but the most recent one was the assassination of coffee money and military commander, general goss. i'm sorry, mani this time. washington admitted, but it directly carried out the attach. i gotcha. although the american officials have tried to justify their actions, we have talked to international rep to or from the un like missed call. the market so confirms the international crime committed by the us and declared that the assassination of general solve money is a blatant human rights violations on an international scale. goes on, you was, has lost its for holes in the wrong service more than 4 decades ago. in the dark memories, if left in the country seem to be indelible, this is not the end of the story yet. washington continues to create even sweeter memories for devante as, as it intensifies, it's harsh as the sanctions regime on it on what's her run,

2:51 am
active resistance. in march, 1919, at the call of mahatma gandhi, a peaceful strike began in the country. but the british responded with a new round of violence and far bade the indians to gather more than 4 people. on the day of the sea bass at the festival, a huge crowd of civilians gathered in the center of the city of i'm gonna start in northern india seeing base as outright defiance. general reginald dyer gave the order to open fire on the on arm the both the barbaric execution claimed the lives of at least 379 indians. including 40 children, the youngest of who was 6 weeks old. the indian national congress considered the official figures to be underestimated and announced the death of more than $1000.00 civilians. the well known greatest newspaper, the morning post called dyer,

the man who saved india, gave him a sword and 26000 pounds sterling as a token of gratitude for the massacre. the amorous dar massacre wind down in history as one of the most brutal crimes of the british invaders, and only escalated the affair. struggle of the indians for liberation from the colonial yoke. the bedroom goes on. we always leaves that license a full set that all these ups and downs the india before the british was the richest nation with the highest g d, b in the world. and why did the 100 years of british rule bring it to this below or some 50 it thing thing the latest. 30th fact

2:55 am
village. 10 minutes before it is close to my side. i just saw the rest all but but i'm split up that's quite a few and do manually love you to a modern manufacturing unit. last go i know cartoons and managers to, well because it was all really which was also our misfortune. because had we been a poor country, i don't think they would have come here kind of didn't realize that guys do more than the platforms, but you know what the next step for the people i guess i've taken glistening, something like on the black to me through the seeing these interior lights to it is not that good. this is a punishment, not harmony. you'll be what i've been doing for centuries, like doing ready to the east india company. he's here to save you from the compressive social lives and get a better future. they propagated falsely, that india is a land of stake, thomas elephants, kroger dies, and we have to see relate these higgins instead of so we have to convert them to
2:56 am
push anything is to start this london is going on in the name of knowledge dentist to enter our mission is going through the someone on the one of the main reasons for the substance of these india comes to me was the does unity among indians? a with lots of problems is and i got jobs in my badge as well. funds simply fighting with each other the can we begin to explore in hastings is any aggressive interior list who was able to break up the confederacy of the various states who realize the danger of a brochure which was beginning in 1776. so they taught the british road just get
2:57 am
down on the player. the probably did not foresee the initial effect that these people are bringing in. that it was not just economic, you know, create relation that they were looking at. they were looking at political subjugation, which was, undermine or not talk to well enough by the local indian p as well. the said the economic structure of india was such nice, destroyed because india at the time of input i showed you hon. this is 6, which is country and the was it had the volume of trade was 16 of the world, the feeling value and in between when to produce game. here, the story begins and 17161930 did use. what does it use when the indian artifacts sort of stolen from indian temples, houses,
2:58 am
policies are sent us data to interest, musing. di, british museum just feet with stolen items. the new york night outside of it is boozy. i'm is just me. it's gorgeous. from the outside, less on the inside. it's quite controversial as some people might want to call it. so let's head inside and see what are some of the artifacts taken from india that this idea is a mind had i live in new delhi and i'm just recently graduated from masters and television school in london. so i was about to move out from london. come back to
2:59 am
india, and when i got this opportunity, i thought that was the best way for me to spend my last days in london by going and going and looking at these museums that had artifacts and guys showed bases of belonging to my own country to you'll see this entire section is fairly solid, asian loaded artifacts of the things i saw that kind of the line did my, my love for history. and i was literally experiencing a c in front of me and it was a lot of beer to mix of emotions. that i felt it was, it was, it was it, there was a sense of sadness. there was a sense of pride decides, just like any piece of furniture that belongs to somebody's house, belongs to that house and should not be elucidated by some toward body
3:00 am
and be put on display. and some other houses are in some other country. um, and especially made it to a sticker to action out of it and monetize. so there are 2 ways of thinking that when neutral, these artifacts monuments, which were lying in ruins, perhaps if they had to remain, they would have gone, become ruins, broken pillows, as you see, and roman for him. perhaps by going to the british museum. they are present flushed but posterity. the obvious item, the hustle and bustle of old that now would serve as odd or easily means of uh, selling stolen items and stored in goods. we are right in front of and in the heart of fluid was out of the light, knowing the lease and.
