a car bomb exploded at the central market of logic of cause us says day morning killing seventeen and injuring more than one hundred sixty meanwhile investigators are examining how local police have stopped the car packed with explosives allowed the suicide bomber to pass through leading to tragedy on his ex and then he had charge of reports. cries louder than sirens but no fear just the time eleven twenty four on the watches of those who perished in the central market in logic of a car as it was i'm supposed to when a suicide bomber drove his silver car to its entrance gates he was said to be come during a routine check of the car but reluctant to open the trunk but a security guard as long big clear insisted. he put the key in the trunk lock maybe once or twice the key broken his hands iceland big had the man turned around and moved away from the crowded entrance a minute later a powerful explosion shook the area icelandic heard the cries and rushed to the

scene. i saw a lot of cars blown to pieces and a lot of bodies i had no real fear i just felt sorry for the people who died or got injured especially a young mother with her child i saw them just before the explosion a young girl was coming in with a kid and little kid as soon as she got inside the blast happened. a little went to the market the day with his entire family it said he was quarreling with his brother dog riding a bike so his grandmother promised to buy him a new one but a moment later they were killed by the blast so. i went inside but they stayed at the entrance suddenly there was an explosion i lost one of my children and my mother my wife and another kid are in hospital there were many people there it was scary. no we'll know and his grandmother yes i'm on lie side by side the government's closed their hearts of the survivors stricken by the loss. this is

a father and his one and a half year old son who died and this is his wife she was injured legs and hands and this is the woman who died. candles commemorate the dead in which he got people here mourn their loved ones and have been given blood to help the injured for tinier who has arrived in the form of a new born son but before the birth she too had to leave through the tragedy. to the brooch. a powerful explosion went off. right away honestly i didn't understand it was a negative tear or anything like that. people covered. in their own right. i was afraid i was. too scared for the last hope to get to be born son that she and i didn't notice that she herself was injured and it

was not the piece of metal in her knee that was on her mind. and was afraid that nothing was moving in. to some time when he started moving when i was home the one taken care of and baby sleeping beside her to jenin now is occupied will begin in the improve a little one as was logic of course itself she still needs some time to get back to normal life this penetrating logic of cars is far deeper than this shell hole left by that deadly car blast as days parts people slowly start mending their lives for sun like the newborn baby it could be a bridge to a new life but for many this horrible attack will be engraved on their hearts forever. our chief oh my god. the bombing that north has said here has been followed by a string of and to terror operations of the caucasus region ten minutes killed in two separate incidents in another volatile russian republic dagestan gunmen world

besieged and a house in the republic's capital they refused to surrender and opened fire on the police elsewhere two militants were killed in another devastating if it before being killed a top local official who acted as a. many experts say militants in the north caucuses are part of an international network and political scientist dr well it says the bombing in north aset here is no different from other suicide bombings anyway in the world. this attack suicide attack in the northern caucasus is not just a local attack by a local terrorist we've seen this before it has history attacks by the hardest movement linked to al qaida worldwide inside russia in dagestan in chechnya in this part of the caucasus as we see around the world whatever you have suicide bombers you see also a threat against international democracy and freedom. that was political scientist

dr overlaid for rests on this weekend knocks nine gears since the deadliest terror attack in history almost three thousand people were killed on september eleventh in new york and a mistrust at least spread among many in the u.s. but despite that tens of thousands of americans decided to become muslims since the tragedy aussies priya sridhar went to find out why. it's the call to prayer and it's answered by more than a billion muslims all over the world including caitlin billings a twenty two year old american who was raised christian greg converted last year my mother. was crying a lot of thought that i was returning her by changing my religion backtrack almost a decade ago to nine eleven today our fellow citizens our way of life or very freedom came under attack in a series of deliberate and deadly terrorist attacks president bush waged a war on terror targeting extremists muslims who were labeled as terrorists you

know i was fourteen when september eleventh happened so i didn't really know what was going on if it really was you know people thought it was so i believe just like everybody else but as billings got older she decided to find out for herself and her investigation led her to the mistah a center a mosque just outside of washington d.c. that has become a haven for many americans like billings who have found a new poll found that almost forty percent of americans believe that muslims should carry identification card despite that twenty thousand americans every year decide to convert to islam convert say they don't regret their decision at all around the world since nine eleven muslims have battled bands of their religious clothing profiling in airports and discrimination in their everyday lives after joining a class to learn more about islam carl dodge also decided to become a muslim one of the big jokes. that i've always made is before i actually sat down

in the class and opened my career on everything i knew about islam i had learned from c.n.n. and when it comes to the mainstream media the depiction of converts can be somewhat extreme that pakistani officials have arrested adam gadahn this is the american born spokesman for al qaeda fox's work first there was john walker lindh the californian who converted joined the taliban and ended up fighting with them in afghanistan and then more recently it was jihad jane the blond haired blue eyed convert who allegedly recruited people to wage violent jihad and for many american muslims like dodge and billings the portrayal of converts is disturbing if those upset me a little bit because there's a lot of preconceptions people have been until i actually took the time to open a koran and see what was written you know that was my only impression of islam is what i had seen on t.v. and in the united states they say a culture of islamophobia just doesn't make sense it's a rights of practice your religion that's what this country was founded on no

matter what unfolds around her billing says she's proud to be a muslim if no one in the world wants to talk to me and my friend i so are granted a happiness that might not make sense to those around her. reassure either party annandale virginia. growing ounce of muslim sentiment came to the. september eleventh time a man set fire to pages of the koran and ground zero to similar incidents are said to have happened in the state of tennessee it follows a threat by a florida pasta to burn islamic holy book on the nine eleven anniversary although that was later told there were also fresh protests against plans to build a mosque close to the site of the tragedy while supporters of the project also radically about muslim american activist. says that since nine eleven islam has been missed contrasted in the us. really with those shows in the most disturbing

part about this debate is it's become in us against them that is the most troubling aspect because we are all americans we're signing collective guilt on the one billion muslims on the acts of nineteen militants that basically defiled islam and practiced a perverted version of islam for a political agenda and now to assign blame all muslims is completely incorrect and inaccurate but i think the great majority here islam because they don't understand it. quick preview of what's coming up later here on l.c. . the u.s. military presence of the japanese island of okinawa is extended the campaign against it gets stronger and i will find out what's behind a. gathering of some of the finest minds around the world has put the russian city of firmly on them up this week it played host to the global policy forum a brainstorming session bringing together statesmen and strategists investors and

innovators because he has been following it. young which you are in fact if solver and democracy as it turns out is different things to different states but look these here is for many us love a standard democracy and efficiency made it sound alluring even for the kremlin's toughest critics gave some of them the chance to hit the president wrong. he said listen i strongly disagree with those who say there's no democracy in russia and that there's authoritarian tendencies here it's not true that russia is a democracy beyond any doubt it's young it's immature it's still not perfect and experience but it's a democracy nonetheless there's a way to go but we're ready to work on it in some countries democracy is being imposed but it doesn't work that way and we've seen many examples of that but when you talk of democracy in russia is a moot point if the country doesn't more denies itself the key message the

president was sending in his speech and other major topic was security russia's been promoting a new vision for european security architecture that it says is vital to avoiding military conflicts similar to that in the south caucasus in two thousand and eight . the muscles that would we need to create an institution that will bring together nato and non nato members and other structures where u.s. counterpart president barack obama never avoids discussing this issue he does not say that is harmful or unnecessary. but i would suggest that among our american partners a certain jealousy exists with regard to this idea however it is necessary to rise over this josee and try to look the truth in the eye without the creation of the system our world will not be able to survive we can help each other here one of the first who supported the idea of the new european security treaty was italian premier corny but before he could make his point he had to find his words

i like to say that i was not very well informed about the topics to be discussed at this forum the section of my administration which has prepared the speech has prepared the room warm that's why i'm passing this tax to the moderator of this portion of the plenary meeting this presentation doesn't correspond to the discussion here many that evening criticize the us corny for taking more stage time than the host but mitchum it that it didn't seem to mind these helen prime minister performance definitely spies stuff put forth a formal session. for two days this study and turned into a lib or a tree where some of the world's best minds attempted to find a formula balancing three elements democracy modernization and efficiency did they come up with a single formula of course they didn't but what they agreed upon is no matter what the proportion if a country wants to move forward it needs all three elements in the mix exiting the church of r.t.e.

from. over a new european security framework will take years of discussion and reforming the current structure is vital says professor cray cohering from new york university. i don't think that there has been a resolution about the proposal for the new european security security treaty but i do think that there is now a relationship of mutual respect between president medvedev and president obama and between the two countries and that includes the other european countries that would have to be partners to any sort of agreement so in my view the discussion has to continue possibly for years before there is a resolution of the disaster would be if any country breaks off the discussion and refuses to keep this process moving forward because we do need to reach an agreement and a new framework. professor craker who had from new york university that speaking at the global policy for.

a forty blowing but fearless pilots there was a miraculous escape this week for a packed russian passenger jet one of crash landed in the middle of a forest in the country's northwest or eighty one people on board survived after a major electrical failure assays tom bottom has the story. the heroes of the tiger these are the men the managed to land a crippled jetliner in the middle of the forest and not injure a soul that passengers thankful to be airline we see it all as we learned yesterday and ended up in the woods emergency crews arrived right away everything was organized very fast asleep if not for the professionalism of the crew we would not be standing here. the tupolev one five four was flying at ten thousand meters on its way to moscow from russia's far east when there was a massive electrical failure the plane lost all automatic navigation and communication its fuel supply and wing flaps were crippled meaning i had to land

quickly and at higher than normal speeds even the lights in the cabin and cockpit went out by sight alone the pilots found an abandoned their strip in the depths of the for. wrist and managed to land on the third attempt. by plane was designed to land on a concrete airstrip at first we chose a rough strip and decided to land there but during the maneuver by a miracle we caught a glimpse of a concrete strip and all the shorter it would be much safer. despite overshooting and plowing through two hundred metres of woodland before stopping all eighty one people on board were evacuated to safety right in the rich can is a former pilot and actually trained the heroes in question he says he's very proud of his form across a jays. up in the close he couldn't even tell their altitude or where they were they only had enough fuel for ten minutes of flight in managing to land that plane he practically did the impossible pass with the plane itself investigators are

poring over interviews with the crew and witnesses black box recordings and evidence at the site that question what caused such a massive electrical failure providing that do believe what fifty four is not quite the brand new hair graph and i'm sure that that craft was manufactured probably at least twenty years ago when you were more. i believe there is a chance that they could we plant was just more of. now russia airlines which owns the plane says it wasn't aware of any issues before takeoff but i did it would never fly together investigators are focusing on mechanical failure rather than pilot error or weather conditions but everyone is expecting the playlets to receive medals there achieved. in time the technical details of this plane's malfunction will join all of the others maybe ation history one thing will always stand out courage and resourcefulness the two men who brought it safely to. bottom too much.

and of course you can find more on that amazing escape and other stories we've been covering at our website r.t. dot com let's now take a look at all timeline right now on. the true cost of luxury see how poachers searching for one of the world's most precious ferd's black caviar are pushing this sturgeon species to the brink of extinction. and russia invents inventors have found a way to prevent rabbits from falling asleep at the we'll find out what it is and how it works out after the dot com. a former u.s. soldier has found himself at the center of a scandal after posting a controversial video on you tube sergeant dunson was discharged after planting grenades in the cars of iraq is at checkpoints then filming the reaction of drivers

all this was supposed to be a prank but as our reports mostly rockets fail to see the funny side. manning a checkpoint all day must get boring which is perhaps why sergeant dunson and his partner admit they passed the time playing jokes on unsuspecting drivers in the future posting dunson describes how they planted a grenade in an iraqi man's car a few seconds of confusion all's explained and the perplexed but very relieved driver is sent on his way. but we had a you know under cars coming. or our it was just want to know it being where it you know it happened. on a guy like that on but for most iraqis this is not fun and life here is very far from being a joke. i think it's only for them to laugh for us it's not funny but very scary. we're used to car bombs explosions research is happening every day but if someone

did this to me i would be so scared. as would most people in a country where a checkpoint can often mean the difference between life and death it's not uncommon to have your heart take a few dozen times a day if you're found out either way but what you are serious here but maybe you'll be arrested on the. terrorism. and some american military personnel are not seeing the funny side of sergeant dunstan's antics i would not tolerate that in my organization. i don't think that's conducive to gaining. into the partnership with with the federal police or certainly and trusting their confidence and us or the people for that matter and trusting the. trusting in the federal police but i want to a local t.v. stations in all picked up on the idea. that it takes well known local celebrities

to iraqi checkpoints and plays pranks on them in much the same way as dunson and his colleagues produce and nudge him all by i says it's a way to lighten the situation. we're not making fun of the iraqi forces they're very brave in fighting terror but we wanted to present them in a unique and different way we also want to present weapons as something people can laugh about. there's mixed reaction to the iraqi show but still iraqis making fun of iraqis is very different according to most people here to americans getting in on the act and with people still being killed in iraq every day there was a constant reminder that terrorism is no laughing matter. back to. this week's savage decided not to challenge. declaration of independence of the united nations on the. pressure from the european union the great finally agreed to

withdraw its initial draft resolution which had called on the secession of kosovo to be denounced a consensus resolution was unanimously adopted by the un general assembly of the grey does not recognize kosovo's independence as a legitimate it's a greek god direct talks of course of ours on all and resolve matters and this concession followed a post from the making it clear that said there is wish to join the european union would be jeopardized if it fails to soften its stance on costs about political writer diana justice as sad as it has caved into the. present text that i have seen and i have here is not really a compromise i would call it an unconditional surrender to the european union but this was not a compromise because from what i've understood the european union did not. in exchange for this they gave nothing as usual and they'll just be asking for more as they have been for many years serbia is now really very much in the position of

france. it's not quite an occupied country but it's surrounded and sort of occupy and only leader or polish party which would really openly take into consideration serbia's interest is condemned by the worst in media as nationalists look where they look what happened to god's love would the united states use the door to get rid of milosevic but when he showed that he was still interested in his country's welfare he's been branded as an extreme nationalist and sidelined this week japan has approved a difference document outlining the need for the continued presence of u.s. troops at a military base on the island of okinawa locals there are highly critical of the american forces and have repeatedly called for the facility to be moved. thomas now that investigates. since the end of world war two the

united states has had a military presence in japan which some people living in okinawa are finding a nuisance i don't hate them. but sometimes we have to. because over the. next two dozen for. america. around eighteen percent of okinawa's main island is occupied by u.s. military forces leading some to believe that in order to provide a more stable future there needs to be less reliance on the basis we must. make more business. we need to be independent. station dinny to market represents okinawa in japan's house of representatives and

is looking to bring about change. it has been sixty years since world war two seventy percent of u.s. bases in japan are in okinawa now that there are security measures and programs in place in asian countries we want the u.s. to reduce their bases games aside from noise pollution and space concerns one of the arguments against u.s. military bases on okinawa is crime according to the treaty american citizens attached to the base can't be tried under japanese law now most of the crimes about ninety percent involve drinking and driving or traffic related but there are a few high profile crimes which include rape and murder which have put a strain on japanese u.s. relations. the u.s. military declined an interview with r.t. but did give us this statement. we are as a small group of people in okinawa vocalized and they are not happy with the bases many people here on mainland japan. fully supports u.s. forces in okinawa and to japan the realize the vital role they play in the defense

of japan and for regional stability and security but getting the u.s. out isn't as easy as a vote by the people japan's surrender at the end of the war limits the country to having only a security defense force as part of the treaty the united states officially acts as japan's military in case a conflict should arise that affects the country but now there is a small but vocal movement suggesting that it is time to review old policies that just aren't needed anymore. the situation in asia has calmed there are no conflicts here any conflicts that exists or in western iraq and not here the people in okinawa think that the strategic value of these bases has diminished for the u.s. . but with china growing stronger as a geo political force in the region and the instability of north korea still a concern it is likely that the united states won't be leaving okinawa anytime.
