Now Russias Investigative Committee has released to the identity of the gunman who opened fire outside the headquarters of the federal Security Service building in central moscow on thursday evening now the shooter was 39 year old if gainey menu of who lived in the Moscow Region he killed in f. S. B. Officer before being shot dead himself another officer later died in the hospital 5 other people including one civilian were injured investigation into possible motives is still ongoing heres a quick reminder of what happened that evening. With your children when you get to the end with her strange sounds we needed to realize that we should hide then we heard someone in the street shouting go back go back. To the signals and the decision i were shooting randomly and i think we heard him shout something but we didnt manage to make out what he was shouting at. The city in a basement were watching now when a guy came and whod just been outside and he told us there was a shooting im so unsure possum he told us the engine had been dropped into a cafe. There are reports of the russian Investigative Committee has searched the home of the suspect in interviewed his family and neighbors they described him to us as a quiet man though a bit reserved as of late. But lately he became very secretive and also got some kind of strange eastern accent he used to tell me that he liked shooting and even wanted to get a sports rank become a more star all sports team where he worked he replied in the Emirates Embassy as a Security Guard though i do not know if it is true he was a very calm guy and then somehow the change started growing his beard maybe it happened of the his grandmother died. Hes a lawyer worked somewhere in moscow he comes from a good family mother grandmother she was a good man she was always very polite attentive i cant say anything bad about him i cant believe whats happened in the country does in your house and he was he wasnt aggressive very calm quite quiet he was lonely no friends no girlfriend we found out about his hoby by accident he invited my husband to join him at a shooting range when he refused the topic was never raised again although we now know is what weve been finding out now from the media. Our correspondent. Has more from the scene of the attack. The f. S. B. Building is just to the left of me and the whole thing happened at around half past 6 in the evening right on the opposite side of this main f. S. B. Building of this f. S. B. Had quarterlies according to an unconfirmed video which we can show you right now the alleged shooter took his position between behind one of the columns right again on the opposite side of this building he took aim armed with an Assault Rifle and he opened fire it seemed that he was specifically targeting f. Is b. Offices coming out of the building this is the heart of moscow its the very center of the russian capital its a trendy and hip area with plenty of bars cafes and restaurants so at 6 oclock it wasnt just the end of the work shift wasnt just the end of the word they wasnt just people leaving their offices offices out on the streets but also plenty of people just out and about plenty of tourists i mean if you just look over their Christmas Decorations are already up here so people were doing their Christmas Shopping theres a St Regis Hotel right across the street from me so there were literally hundreds of people out and about on this square and they were terrified by the shooting but initially many of them were confused because with christmas right around the corner many of them mistook the 1st bursts of fire with well fireworks. I was sitting with my friends at a bow when the shooting began it was the sound of a kalashnikov Assault Rifle i know what it sounds like my friends were like oh it must be firecrackers but i told them no way its not firecrackers and then we saw people running down the street it was scary at 5 or 10 minutes past 6 the gunfire began and it was not just a few shots it came in bursts we saw officers taking cover behind the cars. Left work met up with my girlfriend and when we heard some. Dull sounds in the distance i thought at 1st it was fireworks or some firecrackers but as the sound continued we realized something was wrong Traffic Police who were on the connecticut bridge as usual began evacuating people they apparently caught on to what was going on people started running we heard the gunfire plenty of details are missing right now no more official information as as of yet we do know that the russian president is being kept in the loop of this attack right here in the heart of moscow. We spoke to russia analyst Martin Mccauley and security expert Charles Shoebridge for their thoughts on the attack. He had he was obviously extremely antigun hosed by something that happened probably to his family or. Friends or somebody else because nobody in his right mind. I tend to get into the lubyanka and start firing at the guards hes bound to be killed lou that could have gone into any restaurant and floated as many people as you like but that was not his objective he just wanted to kill you show shared with the secret service is now the official beat and if you killed one that blew he would then say that i have achieved my objective because i would be killed as well given that the target appears to have been dispiriting obviously so publicly linked with the Security Services in the state and given the timing on the almost at the anniversary of. The Security Forces day it be quite strong indications as to the motivation assuming that the government is a rational actor had this attack i think taken place against a more soft target which is usually the case with more explicit or overt terrorist acts then you would have expected i think far more cash has to have resulted in. The e. U. And moscow have slammed of the latest u. S. Sanctions targeting Companies Involved in russias nord stream to gas pipeline to germany berlin and brussels say that america should mind its own business foreign minister Sergey Lavrov added that russia will respond to washingtons more on convince the north stream to as well as turks stream will be completed so extremists that for launch in just 2 or 3 weeks will respond to sanctions but in a way in which we will not harm ourselves but we will definitely respond of course we will keep in mind when developing our relations im surprised that politicians reach such decisions which give no credit to high profile political figures. The German Government has regretfully taken into account that sanctions against north stream 2 and turks stream initiated by the us congress they think german and European Companies and tantamount to interference in our Domestic Affairs the 1200 mi long nord stream went to is being billed from russia to germany through the baltic sea it will allow russia to increase gas exports to germany and europe and supply enough gas to power almost 30000000. 00 households sanctions target Companies Involved in building the last remaining leg of the pipeline and the main swiss contractor has now pulled out over washingtons tough penalties an order stream spokesperson told r. T. That completing the project is essential for European Energy security and says that work will be finished as soon as possible the u. S. Has long voiced its opposition to the project. The United States commands all our European Partners who have taken a strong stand against north stream to. And we commend others to do the same germany is totally controlled by russia because they were getting from 60 to 70 percent of their energy from russia and a new pipeline this pipeline if completed would make europe even more dependent on Russian Energy would generate billions of dollars for putin billions of dollars that would fund a Russian Military aggression. We dont want your Energy Supplies to be defended. Meanwhile russia and ukraine seem to have found a solution to their dispute over Energy Supplies they had been they had disagreed on a contract that allows moscow to send gas to europe through ukraine but the 2 have come to a settlement the new agreement is designed to maintain gas transit between moscow and q for the next 5 years it also states that russia will pay ukraine almost 3000000000. 00 to settle a long running dispute and in return q. Will drop legal action against moscow former u. S. Diplomat jim johnson and member of the Germanys Left Party thomas ollie believe americas approach is souring relations with europe. When they say oh this will cut cut ukraine out of the transit they will they will get less money be really think they care about ukraine they will carry about ukraine at all and the only reason they would be concerned about ukraine being cut out of any transit phase is that that would be what make it more difficult to put pressure on russia by having a puppet ukrainian hand on the on the spigot with regard to europes a gash if that is no longer the case no were really talking about is ukraine being included in a more cooperative relationship between europe and russia thats the worst possible outcome from the point of people the old people and wash damage to the german American Relations is stop and. The idea that america is consciously imposing extra charity extraterritorial sanctions to hurt the German Economy or to hurt the german consumers is now firmly implanted into germanys minds from the left to the right that is absolutely outraged by the actions of the u. S. Government. The u. K. Primary school was the subject of tough criticism this week after parents were angered by changes to the wording of traditional Christmas CarolsWhitehall Primary School in the southeast of england has rejected several carols replacing for example little lord with baby boy jesus critics say the changes amid the whole point of the celebration and some parents have reacted negatively. If he was just a baby boy named jesus there wouldnt be a celebration in the 1st place he said well know it and savior and king of all kings thats the whole point its also a tradition is taking away the traditions of the country i believe my children have been discriminated against and they have been denied the freedom to fully express their Faith Christian belief and tradition of being 2nd feist and silenced in the name of inclusion and Political Correctness the words lord jesus are about the central message of christmas which is that god is with those in jesus to put it very simply but its what christmas is about the school says it promotes British Values including tolerance of those of different faiths and beliefs it has defended the move by saying that some students did not attend last year service because of their religious beliefs and it wants to include all pupils during the festive period we discussed the issue with to pay from Christian Concern and also with social commentator morons are. That came as a christian i say on the whole reason why we celebrate Christian Christmas is because jesus was born as a human being on the ets was god as well and came down and its an incredible thing. And to think that god became a human being but thats what actually happened and thats what were celebrating here and they wanted to remove that reference as well as jesus being king and jesus being savior if we dont have those things what are we celebrating i think its a massive distortion lets be quite clear jesus wasnt god he was odd agreed from a theological perspective not agree he was a mighty messenger of profit there is very little theological evidence the public space and the educational space is one which is secular it does not mean it is bereft of theology or education of belief or conscience but is inclusive of it so if we want to have Standing Advisory Councils and religious education that include all strains of all walks of life of humanism as well and atheism are people who want to come in there with so of more free n. G. s they are included nowadays and the question is whether children should be free to opt out from an itty bitty whereas mary jesus a baby and all the question is not decided on in a stable which isnt true but i think that sucks the parents of the think still composition i think they could come a watch if they wanted to theyre really so upset about people saying jesus or that they have to not even be in the same presence theres something to talk about there why are they so upset about people saying jesus is lord i cant even go on walks and observe it you know and so i think i want to discuss that with them but ultimately i want to respect their rights if they want to opt out of it they cannot sound of it another person should be made for that and the head teacher has seen that she has had 60 people who last year opted out from religious services worshipful activities and under the education act collective worship is wholly or broadly of a christian tradition but it doesnt have to be a particular question is not what they did i was out thats not a commercial you want to opt out no none of that the question you know you just dont see the cost of the question is whether you should tell us the wording if its not what a people should opt out everyone agrees that theyre not out of my world as my only reason i dont have one so this is not a question at my see whether she and i use the word of traditional carols to remove the key belief of christianity and turn it into something thats nonchristian after all that. The question islam is best is the completion of gods revelation we are not here to supersede christians we have to live alongside people and one another and in a modern Secular Society in the educational space we need to have a plural system where everybody is welcome this is the same old tired arguments that some so. How do you know migrants i mean when you have a situation that was a christianity or not you say sure it is not welcome youre saying belief and saying is this going so much as i place is youll notice i said oh no i would say all of what hes doing and i will say thats of christianity youre the one thats being intolerant here because youre saying they shouldnt saying the word says it all thats the its all an attitude here. This week the russian president held his annual q. And a session with journalists from home and abroad event took place in moscows World Trade Center and ran for more than 4 hours while the reporter in the field questions on both domestic and International Affairs with president ial terms in russia and the impeachment of donald trump among the key issues raised. What could be done is to cancel the 2 in a row amendment we have 2 terms in a row yours truly served 2 terms then resigned and had the constitutional right to return to the presidency because it was not 2 terms in a row and the amendment confuses some of our political scientists and public figures so it could be counseled much. When its just a continuation of political infighting one party that lost the election of the Democratic Party is working for results through other methods accusing trump of collusion with russia then its discovered that there was no collusion that cant be the basis for impeachment and now theyve come up with pressure on ukraine i dont know whats there your representatives have a better idea. As for statements from certain people various political figures about russia about me as the head of the country i have been used to treating this accordingly but i know what the interests of my country are and that it doesnt matter at all what anyone else says there is absolutely no value in comparing what they say with the fundamental tasks which russia is interested in solving congratulations to Boris Johnson nevertheless he turned out to be the winner he understood the mood of the british People Better than his political opponents but. Fresh doubts have been cast over the credibility of the International Chemical weapons watchdog of your p c w more leaked emails published by wiki leaks reveal concerns from yet another member of the team that investigated an alleged attack on the ground in the syrian city of goma last year he says the final report into the internet suppressed and distorted their fighting. The Fact Finding Mission report does not reflect the views of all the team members that deployed to duma only one Fact Finding Mission team member a paramedic the socalled Fact Finding Mission core team was in duma we are not insisting on being right in our assertions but we are demanding to be heard we have been stonewalled throughout by office cation exclusion and even thuggish bullying behavior the alleged chemical attack in april last year reportedly killed dozens of civilians in response the United States and its nato allies france and the u. K. Were quick to conduct airstrikes against Syrian Military targets the biggest western military action of the 80 year war now the o. P. C. W later deployed experts to do much to investigate and their subsequent report pin the blame on the Syrian Government and heres what ive got they have commented on the revelations. I had the nerve about the 3 little piglets but the u. P. C. W. Is having its house blown right down from the inside the 1st whistle blower they dismissed the 2nd they sort of excused themselves and now in what is an absolute bombshell their most qualified inspector the f. F. S. Report does not reflect the views of all the team members that deployed to duma i found that i was being excluded from the work for reasons not made clear allegedly the only team member who went to syria and who was allowed to cool right the syria report was the team paramedic and of the chemical inspectors were allowed to pitch in i attempted to submit my reports the f. M. Team leader whos starting from the 15th of february 29th teen after noting continued reluctance from the f f m team to receive my report i deposited the report in d r a for collection on the 27th of february 29th and advised all relevant persons of this shouldnt have bothered it seems no one wanted to read it 48 hours later the u. P. C. W. Published its 1st report and sutherland had to really taken a razor to it so much so that the actual team that went to syria didnt recognise it the consensus within the f. M. Team was that there were indications of serious inconsistency is in findings the conclusions appear to have been turned completely in the opposite direction now that we can exist publish what the preliminary report looks like heres what the u. P. C. W. Deleted one evidence that contradicted witness testimony meaning what the alleged witnesses said deferred wildly from the hard evidence found by inspectors to the fact that the hospital videos which so shocked the world will think the victims all actors this play the sims. Thems inconsistent with chlorine poisoning or poisoning with anything found at the scene 3 and this is the big one in the final report they found chlorine not how much just chlorine which you can fire did your kitchen in any home in any Swimming Pool maybe your right what about removing trace or some other wording may work im still worried that a stock standard phrase such as chlorine containing compounds were detected or similar present the danger of it being misrepresented as a damning conclusion its a political word smithing situation not purely technical and it was the anti acid war hawks trumpet that the facts what the o. P. C. W. Did is akin to saying you found radioactive materials and someones house without mentioning it was a tiny amount to use than fire alarms and this on top of previous whistleblower revelations hard math cast doubt that the canisters at the scene wherever dropped their observations of the scene of the 2 locations suggest that there is a higher probability that both cylinders were money placed at those 2. 00 locations rather than being delivered from aircraft it all began with in henderson when he 1st blew the whistle he was mocked smeared insulted u. P. C. W. Claimed he wasnt even part of the team they lied leaked documents clearly show he was working for the u. P. C. W. Shame on the o. P. C. W. You are aware of the highly questionable behavior surrounding this f. M. We as others in the team who would like to but are unable are questioning the work practices follow during this investigation this is more than a rebellion this is a catastrophe for the o. P. C. W a best this is a case of gross negligence worse than i pray im wrong this is corruption corruption in the very organization thats supposed to keep the world safe from chemical weapons either way from now on or a new p. C. W. Says something people are going to be thinking twice before taking their word for it. On top of that a former newsweek reporter claimed that he quit the magazine when editors scrapped his story in the question of the chemical attack investigation the magazine says the piece was dropped because it was a Conspiracy Theory and not objective reporting we spoke to the journalist and he explained why reporters should not be exploited to justify war. Was a bit disturbed. You know i wasnt really given any valid reasons other than i had refused to sought to call. Then all source to be trusted in my opinion. And then finally what kind of happened as i was i kept pushing to try and do the story because i feel like its of extreme you know Public Interest the attacks on me these organizations have taken a long time for us to get here in terms of a historical point of view when we shouldnt be weaponized in them to kind of create the Public Opinion needed to go to war at the moment theyre all very few. Well mainstream western journalists are reporting on this so i would say this complete failure of the media is jonah starts a whole governments to account and if governments are going to war on false premises then you know we have good evidence to suggest that now and no one is reporting it then were not doing our job as journalists. The series of chilling sketches produced by an inmate had gone tunnel mowbray have been published in a report called how america tortures the pictures illustrate the socalled enhanced interrogation techniques used against abu zubaydah. Between 20022005. He was captured at a jihadi safe house in pakistan in 2002 and was then sent to a socalled cia black site in thailand and his drawings relate to allege torture there he was then transferred to Guantanamo Bay where he is still being held without charge is the 1st person to be subjected to the brutal Interrogation Program which was approved by the administration of george w. Bush and has since been acknowledged by the cia heres a quick overview of what happened. As soon as they locked me up inside the box i tried my best to sit up but in vain for the box was too short i tried to take a curled position but to no avail for it was too tight the very strong pain made me scream unconsciously. They kept pouring water and concentrating on my nose and my mouth until i really felt i was drowning and my chest was just about to explode from the lack of oxygen. The. Long hours went by while i was standing in that position my hands were tight to the upper bars. It felt like an eternity to the point that i found myself falling asleep despite the water being thrown at me by the guard. Earlier my colleague spoke to the inmates lawyer he says the u. S. Isnt transparent when it comes to the treatment of guantanamo detainees has he suffered any lasting physical psychological. Torture. Well you know he must you know anybody would but its ive visited him 67 times a year rudy is a tyrant and its really quite hard to see d over the. Years in the midst of adjustments because of what techniques were used on him the waterboarding may produce some problems. The fact is there were you were with him for 17 straight you did it is. Road you didnt want. To. Believe hes not going to face any charges he has not faced any charges there the clear issue is here why is being kept for so long in kuantan im obeying. Well i think this is serious theres no question that for 17 years hes never been charged either earn it for 10 years weve asked repeatedly for him to be charged with crimes and that is very frustrating but they do it in c. In the cia is to the. United states. As far as he was never a member or nothing to do. d or ever did and. d whats the purpose all that when its been shown to to essentially fail to yield Accurate Information from many suspects so i think it should. Produce accurate iterations from almost anybody splits certainly feel to attract me. To any accurate extermination throws a bit of fire because they didnt know it accountability is that it varies and i would love to many people held accountable for the terms of the murder model right now d is to look forward not backwards of course the problem we have right now is look if they dont would rather words but digital who are still there are going to remain stuck where no i dont think there will d be the formal systems are really there are many who feel theyre all right about what they get in the d. Foreign troops that exists as for me i will be back in 30 minutes with another look at the weekly zark international. Thats kaisers financial survival bill they say money to develop. Close to these if this is a central plank support diet come in im going to call them right now say stuff to. One of the things that i started to realize is that the noise in my head as it me i started the practice of organizing my wife wrong what i wanted my life to be about even when it conflicted with my internal noise so you know why are you i wrote a book but in my head im not smart enough people like me dont write books. But what i
