Gulen’s Turkish Charter schools. The CIA sponsored imam and his troubling US agenda
Episode 4 of The Gulen Mystery, RTD’s in-depth documentary series about Fethullah Gulen, goes West, in the footsteps of the Turkish exile accused of instigating the 2016 military coup attempt against Turkey’s President, Recep Erdogan.
Fethullah Gulen, an influential imam in Turkey, fled to the US in 1999 after having been accused of ‘threatening the secular state’. His application for residency was supported by CIA operatives and a US ambassador, raising questions about the links between the charismatic spiritual leader and the United States. T Over the past fifteen years, his followers have built the second largest network of charter schools in the US. However, its lack of transparency has left some Americans wondering about its ultimate function within the Gulen nexus. Mary Addi, a former teacher, turned Gulen opponent and Mark Hall, an investigative filmmaker, reveal disturbing facts about the charter schools and ask what Fethullah Gulen is really doing in America.

In the 21st century, slavery’s still going strong. According to the UN, 40 million people are held in slavery worldwide. These modern slaves have many faces. They‘re forced to work for no pay, to beg, to prostitute themselves. They move to a new country in search of a better life, but once they’re there, they become easy prey. Their former benefactors kidnap them, take away their passports, beat them and humiliate them. Gangs force the elderly and the disabled to beg at prime spots, while swiping all the money they collect. Unscrupulous shopkeepers or builders hold these modern slaves in cramped living quarters they can never leave. They make them have sex with each other, then they make them have abortions, or they steal their babies. If they do run away, they risk being disposed of in a brutal fashion.
For those who fight 21st century slavery, it’s a dangerous occupation. Slaveholders don’t appreciate any interference in their businesses. But there are little tricks to help volunteers flush them out.

The Donetsk and Lugansk republics, collectively known as Donbass, declared independence from Kiev in 2014, and civil war erupted.
Ukrainian volunteer nationalist battalions committed war crimes against Donbass civilians killing entire families. According to UN estimates, over 13,000 people have been killed in the conflict.
There are monuments to the lost children in Donbass and Alley of Angels is one of them. It's a reminder to the whole of Donbass of the price they've paid for the coup that happened in Kiev in 2014.
This is a clip from the documentary ‘Donbass. Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow’ – watch it in full here: https://odysee.com/@RTDocumentary:4/donbass.-yesterday,-today,-and-tomorrow:7

The Amazon is the world's largest river not only in terms of basin area but also in terms of drug trafficking, which is estimated at 10 billion dollars a year. As cocaine moves along the river its price rises 150 times. In some places the Amazon can be as much as 80 km wide, making it impossible for the police to control the area. Drug dealers fight over this lucrative territory and push locals living on the river shores to flee their homes. Abandoned houses are then used as cocaine storage facilities. The area has Brazil's second-highest homicide rate; people and whole families are killed there every day.
A fisherman named Mateus has a farm near the Amazon where he lives with his family and raises pigs and chickens. Criminals want to seize his land and tear down his house to store drugs there. They threaten Mateus, but his family has no other place to go. The fisherman hoped that the police would protect his farm but the police sided with the drug dealers claiming that Mateus and his farm had no right to be there. How can Mateus and those who have faced such threats protect themselves from drug cartels?
Kenny Richey spent two decades on death row in Ohio before his sentence was overturned. He was convicted of setting an apartment on fire, killing a 2-year-old girl. He survived 13 execution dates, with one reprieve coming just an hour from his scheduled time in the electric chair. Richey has always maintained his innocence, while his case drew international attention among human rights campaigners and celebrities, including Reprieve in the UK, Amnesty International and even Pope John Paul II. Years after his release though, not everyone is convinced about Richey’s innocence. His ex-wife, Karen, claims that the ex-con confessed to her that he had started the fire.

RT Documentary’s new film Russia’s NICA: Big Bang questions takes you to the Russian nuclear facility in Dubna where a collider is being built as part of the NICA mega-science project. It can recreate the beginning of the world 14 billion years ago.
This research can be used to learn how the universe was formed, according to the Big Bang theory, and the data obtained in the process will be essential to many other areas of science.
The Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna has been operating since Soviet times, and this is where the Synchrophasotron elementary particle accelerator was built in the 1960s. It is still functional and can be used, but it takes an excessive amount of energy. Nevertheless, it remains a monument to Soviet science and the attempts to learn about the universe.
The modern state-of-the-art collider called Nuclotron accelerates the charged particles. They fly towards each other and eventually meet. They collide at a rate of 7,000 per second. This seems a lot, but drawing profound conclusions or making a discovery as big as the Higgs Boson takes months and even years of gathering statistics. The Boson was predicted by Nobel Prize-winning physicist Peter Higgs in 1964 and practically proved in 2012. The discovery was made on the CERN collider in Switzerland.
Besides, it is tough to observe the particles since their small size makes them indiscernible not just for the human eye but also for many devices. In this microcosm, a tiny grain of sand is equivalent to planet Earth! But once it’s done, the scientists are hoping to recreate matter formed following the Big Bang.
But the collider is not only about the past. Learning more about magnetic fields can be used in modern science and everyday life. What spectacular results the collider research yields — find out in the film!
