► NEWS & POLITICS : Paul Craig Roberts: US is Completely Busted, Non-Delivery of Gold-Crash the System, War in Ukraine. Economist Dr. Paul Craig Roberts says, "The physical stock of gold in the West to meet delivery demand is diminishing rapidly. So, one day the Chinese will buy 100 tons of gold, and we won't be able to make delivery. That would crash the system. It would just pop. So, there are things that could crash it suddenly. Regardless . . . the economy is going to gradually sink because there are no jobs, or no good jobs. . . So, there is not a recovery. The U.S. is a busted state. It's completely busted."

On the Federal Reserve money printing to prop up the economy, Dr. Roberts, who has a PhD in economics, contends, "I think they realize all the money printing does undermine the dollar, and if they lose the dollar, the game is over. So, they have to protect the dollar."

► FILM & ANIMATIONS : Children of the Jaguar (Full Documentary). The Amazon ecosystem, and especially the rain forest, is considered one of the world's most complex animal and vegetable habitats. Its most important characteristics are the sheer number of different animal and plant species, and the extraordinary variations in macro and micro-habitats. In this park alone, over 100 species of tree per hectare have been identified. To give us some idea of the scale of this number, in the richest, densest jungles of Central America, the equivalent figure is no more than 40.

Well, now, let me go. What else are you crying about, hm? Hopefully my replacement man can better understand your heart.It's hard I guess, leaving the love of the beloved. But what else can I do? Everything should I live. Goodbye, my little Russia. I pray you are always happy. My message is only one, "Do not forget to send us your news. (Mmm, including repayment of all your debts, okay?)"

If one day he's very disappointing you, my heart will not willingly hear ye live with suffering. My Cutie Pie, even though our time together is only for a moment, but you're still a part of my soul. I accompany your departure with a sincere heart. I hope one day we can unite again.

■ Long Way Home: US withdrawal from Afghanistan biggest military challenge since WWII. The US is preparing for its biggest military challenge yet in Afghanistan, that of pulling out. The mission involves transporting tens of thousands of soldiers and all their hardware from the volatile region. And as RT's Meghan Lopez explains, the diplomatic effort will be just as demanding.



■ Dependent Defense: UK nuclear arsenal fully reliant on US industry. The UK taxpayer will be stuck with a bill for almost 3 and a half billion dollars to modernise the nation's nuclear arsenal even though polls suggest the majority of the population think it's a waste of money. Renewing the US-built Trident missiles will happen over a 50 year time span. And is likely to leave the UK's nuclear capability dependent on Washington.
