The latest episode of The World Tomorrow takes us to the very heart of America’s War on Terror: Guantanamo Bay. Julian Assange sat down with a former Gitmo prisoner and a rights campaigner fighting for those still trapped behind the wire.

2 of 2:I read that the primary reason CIA exists is to control the marketing and distribution of heroin derivatives to the very wide customer base world wide. This is how it makes its money if you like, and in our capitalist world, anything that's done, has to be done for the eventual profit which will be astronomical.CIA and MI6 job is to think up extraordinary projects and feats, and so the question is - was the Wikileaks fiasco an instance of CIA being taken by surprise, or was it a carefully organised bit of genius designed with public relations in mind? As a consequence of past events, Julian Assange, with his reputation for whistle blowing and apparent honesty in providing the general public with 'facts' the CIA would rather we didn't know, he now has his own TV program - would you believe? - with guests that can talk the same language as the millions of muslims who no doubt tune in to his program every evening.So, while you might think that Julian is a double agent, CIA couldn't give a toss what you think. CIA is, however, interested in 'educating' all those muslims out there, many of whom might be thinking - perhaps Osama Bin Laden ( Obama! Sin Laden) really did have a hand in 911? And guys, when you are commenting, could you please ensure your spelling and grammar are accurate so we know exactly what you're saying?
1 of 3 :When the Sky TV channels RT and Aljazeera originally began broadcasting, it was plain they were offering an alternative view to Fox, CNN and the BBC, which was refreshing and for them, a little dangerous.
If memory serves me correctly, wasn't Aljazeera eventually bombed by Bush, and the result of this is that all news networks are now basically identical and controlled by the same people who are now free to decide what is broadcast. Ever yone on the planet can now listen to the same news in their own language, but where the delivery can be modified depending on who is listening.
Thus, the whole world is slowly and gradually being brain washed into believing that world events occur and unfold exactly as Sky news dictates. Every now and again, Newsnight on BBC2 feeds us with a bit of news that must have come from the desk of MI6, and it struck me that Newsnight is an arm of MI6. Thus people like Jeremy Paxman are forever lying through their teeth and feeding us with propaganda.
MI6 is the intelligence arm of Monarchy, both of which have been around for centuries. Monarchy is not just the Royal Family (bless their hearts) but the entire kit and caboodle.
We know that in December 1913, Rothschild et al set up the Federal Reserve and 6 months later, world war 1 began and Europeans began killing each other in massive numbers. Coincidence?
Thus, the Federal Reserve is an outpost of the Bank of England which is a central bank which is privately owned by individuals.
It makes sense therefore to deduce that the recently created CIA in 1945 is in actuality an extension of MI6, and the CIA therefore takes its marching orders from MI6 which is the intelligence arm of Monarchy.
Did I read somewhere that defence spending in the USA has never gone down since world war 2 which indicates that the ruling elite are forever preparing for war (and fighting it obviously). It's their raison d'etre for existing if you like.
At jamie beattie: Thats the past, history if you like. The present is even worse.It will take time to oncover the truth by that time it will be too late for the "Indians". If the evil ones keep repleating the same lie over and over again, even when it has been exposed as a lie, people will be fooled into thinking its the truth. Example: Amadinajad DIDNT say that Isreal would be wiped off the face of the map...It was Col. Alan Sabrosky.Phd.who DID say The Americans WOULD if they knew who carried out 9/11. HE IS a whistleblower, Assange NEVER was.Do you think Assange or RT is going to quizz this "madman", unfortuneately,I think not, but anybody can watch "Missing Links" The ultimate truth about 9/11.,and make up their own minds.!
These two iddiots are no different to the rest of the 2nd generation Muslims living in west.Algerians in France,Turks in Germany,Pakistanis in England.All born and bread in EU ,like other europians but as second class citizens,suffering discriminations and racism day in day out.None is familiar with their Islamic culture or able to even understand Quran.So,when these two "frauds"were taken to Guantanamo,as two Islamic fundamentalists,they were really just begots and is not against a law anywhere..Then UK government makes them an offer of freedom,if they work for MI5 or 6,then they get componsation as well as protection.As a result both work for British government and get supports from Saudi and probabely Qatar ,as long as both ,promote Wahabis-Salafism amongst English Muslim youths and the gelorification of Al-Qaeda.Of course with permission from English gov .Perhaps, Julian was inticed to interview them,otherwise ,in case of refusal ,then Julian would have been sent to USA by English government.
The murderous gene that the UK exported all around the world, i.e. to australia US,canada and all its other colonial outposts over the last 4 centuries are the reasons the world is teetering on world war 3. The UK is the hinge pin of western aggression, and the london stock exchange cleaning up dirty american banks money,the root cause of the financial melt down. The "inbreds" which the english call the royal family, are the basis of snobery and a sick etiquette that has crept over the western peoples, like some hidious virus. Let us not forget, the first concentration camps in the boer war, where the british murdered and raped their way through 1000's of women and children, let us not forget the only country who comitted genocide successfully using an early form of biological warfare, i.e. giving a tribe of canadian Indians blankets, which were purposefully doctored with the smallpox virus. Let us not forget "partition" of India and Pakistan, where the british were the cause of 100000's of deaths, let us not forget how the british left Palestine to to be raped by israel. The UK should be vaporised.
Next time you’re in New York, go to the top of the Empire State Building, and while you’re gazing across the city, imagine a jet aircraft ramming into the building. Now imagine that the building is only 100’ high. This helps put 911 into perspective and why the collapse of the Twin Towers had to have been an impossibility based on the scenario cooked up by the Authorities. In his book ‘The New Pearl Habor’, David Ray Griffin argues convincingly that the Towers were brought down by controlled demolition. If this was the case, then he is, intentionally or otherwise, proclaiming that no planes were involved. If planes really did fly into the Towers, then there could not possibly have been any controlled demolition. You can have one or the other, but you can’t have both, at least not at the same time. In order to be able to acknowledge the truth of 911, you had to have seen the TV footage on the day. Plainly, the 2 people you interviewed had no idea what happened on the day, and my guess is, neither did you. I have no idea what the purpose or objectives of your interviews are, but I am not at all surprised that your programs all support the official story.

Assange is a double agent and the war on terror is one big bluff! The questions we really need answered here is why does Saudi Arabia:Back US aggression in the Middle East?Back 'The War On Terror'? Fund extreme Islam and the building of Mosques all over Europe?Fund uprisings in non exteme Arab countries such as Egypt and now Syria?Assange kNWOs the answer I am sure!
Why aren`t there as many Black or ordinary White people involved in "leading" the world as there are Jews? Are Jews cleverer than the rest of us or could there be another explanation?Why is Israel behind the English Defence League and BNP and Anders Breivik and Geert Wilders and the entire Zionist western Establishment that has a curious habit of never criticising crooked Jews and their crooked Israel.No doubt someone will give us a view on this from their steamed up Zionist Viewfinder? But who is listening any more? We are just waiting for Wall Street and Rothschild and Israel and BBC/Fox et al...to get swept from the face of the Earth ....so we can get on with creating a decent world for EVERYONE....includin g "the Jews"!

..RT is taking over the role as propaganda channel for the terrorists and mass murderers. Its time to shut RT down or fix you mistake allowing terrorist propaganda.

their land from colonialist, expansionist.. barbaric.. belligerent
invaders.yes, it's best you leave terrorist.

It's concerning that RT gives free space to the lust murderers in Al Qaida and the taliban using their supporter Julian Assange. Before I assumed RT was a legitimate news network, but now since Al Jazeera was exposed being controlled by Al Qaida it looks like RT is taking over the role as propaganda channel for the terrorists and mass murderers. Its time to shut RT down or fix you mistake allowing terrorist propaganda.
Its the torture that annoys me.From a country that says "I am democratic and free and I will go round the world and free everybody even if we have to kill all the inhabitants to "do it".They blamed the Chinese for "brainwashing" people and torture a long time ago.And now they do the same.The "high moral standard" given out by the US as they condemned the Nazis at the WW2 trials and yes "we believe"in "human-rights at the Hague.LIES they have no morals left just out and out BAD.Like any bully they like to give it out but cannot take what they give out.
@The Monk "This is not a story but a promo for his show. Too many gaps like
where and how the prisoner was caught. A difference between "told" and
"led to believe" about his wife. "Hog tied" is a vague term. Just a
titillating promo and nothing else!"
We are very concerned about this case because in our many years of torturing and murdering people in the name of Christianity we never expected to see this Guantanamo treatment to be handed out to our boys. In fact the Republican freedom fighters committed thousands of murders on behalf of the USA,just like our brothers on the far right around the world.So what is different about Muslim freedom fighters?Could this be racism?Surely England should be handed over to a Power Sharing Government of extremists including Al Queda and the English DefenceLeague,simila r to ours in Ulster?

I feel able to speak for everyone here in the promised land of Israel when I say that our colony of the British Isles does not "do torture". ----- -------------------- -------------------- -------------------- May we respectfully support Mr Straw`s comments in this matter and re-assure him that we love Israel as well and will use our best efforts to ensure that any so called terrorist who happens to be a Zionist (like Anders Breivik and Geert Wilders and Mr Rose of the cartoons fame) will be treated with the utmost care and respect and any statements they make that might connect them with the far right (is there a left wing?) in Israel will be vigorously suppressed on the spurious grounds that it might encourage fascists like us.Heil Dimbleby!
I feel able to speak for everyone here in the promised land of Israel when I say that our colony of the British Isles does not "do torture". And if you don`t believe an honourable minister of Mr Netanyahu`s government like me you will surely read ex-President Clinton`s lips and accept Mr Bliars solemn Roman Catholic assurances on behalf of Mr Murdoch and JP Morgan on the matter!

Assange is a tool? How are the Muslims going to achieve the new scapegoat status that the Jews did? The Muslims were attacked and so have the entire planet of humans been attacked.
Onc e again, focusing on only the intended attacked is to miss the unintended consequences of all cannibal behavior: mass murder, regardless of whether or not a black, white, red, yellow, blue, or ? human commodity to the so-called "rich" of earth that manufactured "money" to brainwash the entirety of beings into a majority thinking very, very unintelligent.
Stop the elitists' very clever irresponsible choices in this time to mold the future for those who and whom practice absurdities and continue to commit as many atrocities that can be imagined. Ugh, time for change.
