Whistleblower Edward Snowden but cannot reveal a little too much former u. S. Soldier in the clean up paying to protect japanese rain forests thats been polluted for decades by the american men. And i welcome you with our international this Tuesday Morning where shes gone Eleven Oclock here in moscow. Now it is more than five months since iraqs second largest city was liberated from myself but there is precious little for the people of mosul to return to in his latest report from the city or against the ever feels the grim reality of life there today. There are things you have to see to believe mosul is such a place the old city of mosul is by any measure a dead and miserable place more rubble than buildings and even that mixed with unexploded bombs and decaying bodies at the spite these people are coming back to live here and low self and not out of choice. When iraq where can we go through hard times tired. What can we do its all fate its our fate. My daughter was injured five times i have no money and we slept on the streets on the other side of the river those that have returned to old mosul a few and far between but desperately mohali my jewelry my home is destroyed my shop is destroyed im borrowing money just to feed my family im going to some i cant tomorrow to buy food why is it like this where the countries that said they would support us theres nothing the u. S. Led coalition spent all in all more than a hundred thousand dollars per airstrike hundreds and hundreds just in mosul the money required for just a few airstrikes could feed all the civilians in old mosul for months but no one has sent anything the local Garrison Division five shares its food with the locals and and showed up and handed out blankets but that eat no one else has helped now you might have a good thing we dont want to fish all sitting behind tables and stealing while leaving us without help we will never vote for them they left us to choose between isis and death. This isnt life it is a grim existence imagine spending your days salvage. Gene called the wire to feed your family at eleven years of age kill it why dont we go and sell it one kilos half a dollar a year old get over he mad i dont have money mart. What else is there to do in mosul like she said when was and still dont look all over everything and i mean that if she ever put that it can. Get. These children have been through hell i had a thought i knew my daughter doesnt want to go to school because shes afraid when we came back here my son would vomit every morning out of fear their psychologically scarred for life you know what they have seen as horrifying starvation killing this generation will never forget how do you model closing your eyes wont help a lot in mosul the smell is always there to remind you how many people are still buried in the rubble here my god why many thousand. This year roughly two thousand five hundred and then comes me how zion all these houses and their families need them and not just that i believe will help me knowing that the whole im terrified whenever i stumble on a bomb i leave the police to it so they get rid of it this isnt a game how can we not be afraid of the right. If not the smell that hunger if not that then the dormant bombs if not then isis. Five months since they declared victory escorts walked around with pistols in their hands drawn and cocked ready for isis hideaways it will sit six days ago they discovered eight isis fighters in this neighborhood we couldnt even get them to stand they were so weak we called a doctor and he said not to give them water afterwards they took them away. It will take you know longer than a few minutes to find isis flags or propaganda weapons ammunition or unexploded bombs bodies tunnels this is one of the tunnels that isis used to move in and around the city for how you did. That to have the. I dont know the world has forgotten mosul its out of fashion no longer trending and locals have a well founded suspicion that this was never about saving them. More against the of reporting while in a recent investigation by the Associated Press did find that up to eleven thousand civilians were killed during the battle for mosul that is ten times higher than earlier estimates and a third of those were killed by iraqi and u. S. Led airstrikes the norwegian refugee cancels Media Coordinator in iraq told me earlier about the year difficulties most residents now face. We have managed to rehabilitate a water plant thats providing water to one hundred thousand people but with struggling with the same issues that these people are struggling with were trying to provide education and waste most all but one principal came to us and asked us to remove did bodies from his school before we could do that and there are also unexploded or bombs in ordinances throughout the city thats making it very difficult for us there is still camps for people outside mosul and the longer those people there the more we provide them with theres a camp that we manage for twenty five thousand people around thirty kilometers from the city and weve provided these people with blankets heaters were setting up schools theres a market in these camps were trying to make life as manageable in these camps as we can for them because obviously again by the footage and the photographs and stories they cant return to the city immediately and it may in fact be many more months before they can. In other news today the un is facing having nearly three hundred Million Dollars less in its pockets over the next couple of years and the Us Ambassador nikki haley didnt mince her woods either over the reasons why the budget is being cut. The inefficiency and overspending of the United Nations are well known we will no longer let the generosity of the American People be taken advantage of or remain unchecked this historic reduction in spending in addition to many other moves towards a more efficient and accountable un is a big step in the right direction where un members did agree the new budget on sunday capping it at five point four billion dollars the United States makes the largest contribution owing to the size of its economy is responsible for twenty two percent of the payments to the main budget contributing more than a billion dollars over the last two years the u. S. Also accounts for nearly a third of the uns peacekeeping budget with more than three billion in annual payments the funding cuts come just days after the un overwhelmingly voted to reject Donald Trumps decision to recognize jerusalem as the israeli capital only nine members in fact including the us voted against the resolution while one hundred twenty eight has supported it the u. S. Has tried to pressure u. N. Members with threats ranging from cutting aid to taking the names of those supporting the resolution. When we make generous contributions to the u. N. We ourselves have a legitimate expectation that our good will is recognized and respected the United States will remember this day they take hundreds of millions of dollars and even billions of dollars and then they vote against us while were watching those votes read a vote against us will serve a lot. We dont care just about everything Ambassador Haley has done since assuming her paws as being contrary to the spirit of the u. N. Charter ive been quite and diplomatic to the very north wall diplomacy complete pack packed list tag for listeners. Without any sense of new once saw disco no cool language of threat and punishment use against soldering nations and so forth this really hurts the uses image and credibility of war wide and United States is not helping its served by having someone representing the United Nations who saw undiplomatic and for into the spirit of the United Nations. Now up next we do have some dramatic pictures to show you they are from a traditional christmas a fireworks display in central cuba that left spectators running for cover after a pyrotechnics explosion in fact dozens of people were injured some seriously were. I. Know what went wrong here at the annual parade and asbestos bill which does take place every christmas even attracts thousands of lake with visitors more than twenty seriously hurt in this explosion six children are also among the injured to the towns destruction usually compete to see which can stage the most spectacular display. For now an app which does let you know if your home is being snooped on. Been developed by the american whistleblower and anti Surveillance Campaign Edward Snowden it works on Android Devices and can spot a shadowy electronic intrusion but sethi now explains it might also reveal a few things you might want to keep quiet. Edward snowden has set out to prove hes capable of much more than leaking n. S. A. Secret hes keeping up the fight against digital surveillance and this time its in the form of an app hes created a personal Security System in the hope of empowering journalists and activists to secretly monitor their possessions and that has a very fitting name meat haven. Makes it harder to. Raid search. Without getting. The streets kind of. More people want to crack down you have to. Will i. Say lets take a closer look you simply install haven on any Android Phone and your device tends into a Surveillance System it works by the app detecting changes in the environment using sentences already built in say you left your phone and attended in your bedroom and an intruder breaks in well first of all it uses the cameraman itll instantly Start Recording and may catch the unwanted visitor of course you could also set a trap for a nosy partner snooping through your messages secondly the built in microphone will pick up any conversations to be private well thats great for recording intruders voices which you also be tempted to leave it somewhere you shouldnt in all cases of a breach youll receive in court today lets. Keep you safe that it can be exploited i can have a good site if there is Domestic Abuse going on for example and you want to record proof and then go to the police they can have a bad side because you might feel youre being stalked by a jealous ex spouse or a jealous spouse even theres a potential as you be hijacked as well thats why he will enjoy it which is i think has closed its of software within it so theres always a plus this month thats with the new technologies of course that said Edward Snowden himself has always been notoriously careful about the technology around him. Famously asking journalists to place their phones in hotel fridges to stop for oil would be snippets so why some say its and whether their app will create a physical space you can trust or make you more power annoyed of the device lying next to you bill at the spy next door. Youd be more former u. S. Soldiers have seen for themselves the effects of decades of pollution caused by the American Military on the japanese island of okinawa they joined local environmental campaigns document the damage to the rainforest there to try and get u. S. Forces to clean up their act. In their training for training and the transfer to go. Lets go over here for a minute. From the word. To the. Point. Its a little more. Normal if you can one you know. These camouflage so much its really hard to find their own use when theyre much easier. To. Do yes marines behave that this in their own country or do they just act like it is because its okinawa well to all of the former u. S. Soldiers who are taking part in the uk and our campaign there say the u. S. Is often indifferent to the environmental problems it causes. Ellison ok now because we had a delegation there. Were supporting the local people. Against the new base thats been created there and i was told that i heard reports that there was trash all over the place so i had to say with my own eyes because i was a marine that was stationed out there and i couldnt believe it because the marines when i was in we would never do that we were trained if if you pack it in you take it out so so thats why i went out there and it just blew my mind i cant believe what i saw all the trash in such a pristine area that claims that the u. S. Military is the biggest polluter of definitely agree with that theyre the single most polluter in the world and thats not something that its that its up for agreement or disagreement this can be measured. Ranging from the pollutants from the c o two contributions that the u. S. Military puts out into that mix fear them our fuel that they use the u. S. Doesnt look into the Environmental Issues or. Acknowledge them and ive seen a lot of issues around the bases in okinawa you know similarities in iraq and afghanistan and even bases here on u. S. Soil where its just contaminating the land that its using there the open burn pits that is having huge effects on military personnel members and just outright consumption of fossil fuels across the pentagon of all four branches having a Training Center in the middle of the rain for us should ultimately come down to the people who live in or near that rain forest so say take that young boy forest in northern okinawa where the u. S. Marines have been training for decades the people there on the ground who live there and have to suffer from the consequences of that training they dont want it there the u. S. Doesnt really cooperate in any investigations of Environmental Issues because its a direct threat to their National Security goals but the problem is Environmental Issues are a direct threat to our lives the u. S. Gets away with a lot of the Environmental Issues. Now still ahead for you this hour we look at austrias plan to tackle the migrant crisis at its source that story plus of this to you just after this break. Seemed wrong. Just dont hold. Any new world yet to shape out just doing something active. And engaged equals betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. In twenty and what well see are Central Banks adding bitcoin to their Strategic Reserves alongside gold so the big gold buyers like china and russia will be adding big point to their Strategic Reserves some of the banks possibly in venezuela they could completely change their fortunes in the Global Economy by switching over to crypto switching over to bitcoin and then that will set a precedent for other countries of policy. And. Again our street is recently sworn in chance in the says the use migrant relocation quota policies are not helping solve the refugee crisis sebastian because he believes the problem should be handled in the migrants home countries. Migrants who set off for europe dont want to go to bulgaria are hungry they want to go to germany austria sweden they should be helped in safe areas in their own continent the e. U. Should support that perhaps even organize it and back it militarily and there have been similar calls in the past from other european leaders including the consideration of overseas military operations to stem the flow of migrants last month in fact the french president proposed military action to put an end to people trafficking in libya some believe it is an approach though that is deeply flawed is. From the Damascus Center of strategic studies. To send troops or european armies to. Very. Serious zones i think its not practical in first of all these armies will be involved in the internal affairs of this country and their reaction from the law people will be may be negatively they will lose a lot of. Soldiers first so i think to be engaged in internal adverse of any county it would be reflected on their internal affairs and i think they should read very good the story of syria during seven years they should read the story of libya the story of yemen the story in africa and. This is a good approach for these pictures to show you just how desperate some migrants have become they are crossing the alps here from mislead to get into france battling freezing temperatures and often in inadequate clothing to try and seek a better life in europe with little sign that the flow will end any time soon european leaders are increasingly putting forward ideas to take direct action in the home countries of the migrants who are again suspects the members of the habs trying to reestablish themselves as Major Players in the middle east and africa. Youve been you know they are feeling that they are. Outside of the political settlement now example in syria they are outside in libya they started against libya became not. Internal affairs of libya in yemen this maybe in africa we cannot see that they would be you know for all is very important so because of the trying to. To review their role in the middle east. Now this next story has stood up a lot of opinion thats because to zoos in denmark are asking people to donate their unwanted pets to feed their lions and tigers were not doing a top for people way to kill that. We do it because we need animals. People are emotional so we spend a lot of time telling them what is about to happen i think people would prefer something meaningful rather than just having them put down and incinerated well Daniel Hawkins talk to the Animal Rights activist mimi he says that saves came or about their revenues than they do their animals. This. You know we do see. A lot of documentaries surely about just how that. Pyramid of. You know of food of the food chain of course it is and you know theres im not suggesting otherwise im not suggesting that that doesnt happen in nature but what im saying is that when you are the guardian for an animal there is a responsibility that comes along with that and thats a responsibility to protected to care for that animal and when the time comes to ensure that they dont suffer so that concept of responsible animal guardianship is completely contrary to the idea of taking your animal companion to the zoo to be served up as as a lions den or absolutely sickening but it can show people what zoos are really about theyre not institutions that care about animals theyre institutions that care about making money at the expense of their welfare and their well being how would you propose that people deal with. You know going to die soon perhaps die in pain anyway albeit on a little street so i mean surely this is just give people another option as to what to do with the super house you know have been loved and looked off to come to the end of the life cycle i have three cats myself who are very locked in very well looked after and when the time comes when their lives are clearly over then i will ensure that their humanely euthanized so that they never have to suffer for a day in their lives and most people who have animals who are responsible guardians would do the same because to be honest the thought of taking my cats to a zoo so that they can be torn apart by lions that is the most grotesque idea and im sure that most people who have animals whether its cats or rabbits or dogs or any other animal that they share their home with who they consider to be part of their family would feel the exact same way susie in denmark already have something of a reputation when it comes to educate. About wildlife copenhagen zoo caused controversy back in twenty fourteen when it slaughtered a giraffe ear in front of spectators before feeding it to the lions and another zoo in odense dissected a lion in front of School Children after it was unable to find another facility to adopt it yes. Switzerland may not be a member of the European Union but its president number less wants to hold a referendum on her countrys relationship with brussels a fundamental rough run to woodhouse with sly clarify its relationship with the European Union the bilateral paths important we have to know in which direction to go well switzerland and brussels fell out last week when the decided to set a one year limit on swiss stock exchanges access to the e. U. Extending it will now depend on whether there is progress in negotiating a socalled framework treaty between them switzerland is not an e. U. Member but it is part of the visa free travel area known as the schengen zone and it has strong economic ties with the e. U. They are currently regulated through more than one hundred by that records which could be simplified by the framework treaty but there are voices in switzerland which are wary of establishing closer ties with the u. We discussed the referendum idea with the euro skeptics with Peoples Party which currently holds the majority in parliament. The relations between switzerland and brussels get worse part of the problem is that in the west in the world the boycotts start to increase unfortunately it looks like to europeans you indian it is trying to weaken our Financial Center so we have to stay for into past our own government has made a dramatic mistake to get on its knees way too quickly when we were attacked in that sense by the americans few years ago and now towards brussels the same danger is here we get on our knees too quickly so that brings you up to date so i thought today dont forget you can have a look at said plenty of other stories to tell you i dont website at. All to see we have a great team but we need to strengthen before the free float world cold and youre back to been a legend to keep it so its at the back. In one thousand nine hundred two that must qualify for the european championships at the very last moment no one believed in us but we won and im hoping to bring some of that winning spirit to the r. C. C. Recently ive had a lot of practice so i can guard see you that Peter Schmeichel will be on the best fall since my last will call i think the last throws are as weve. Thousand zero zero zero zero hitter here i cant brush. Right right right right left left left more or less ok stuff thats really good heres what people have been saying about redacted in the sense that its belong on the only show i go out of my way to times you know really what it is theyre really packed a punch.
