In just a moment. Lets begin with the torturous report that has leaders around the world with sounding off. Former u. S. Vice president dick cheney was in office when these interrogations took place and hes been using some of the most colorful language in defending what happened. Take a listen here as he makes his feelings known. What are we supposed to do, kiss him on both cheeks and say tell us what you know. Of course not. Thats not all he said but you will hear more of his fiery comments in just a moment. First look at International Reaction coming in response to the report. Governments across the globe are condemning the u. S. After the release of the Senate Report on cia interrogation tactics. The report details brutal acts of torture and now has governments who helped the cia on the defensive. Heres our barbara starr. Today the impact of the torture report spread even as key allies are speaking out. Torture is wrong. Torture is always wrong. Reporter afghanistans new president furious at the cia report calling it shocking. The report indicates some of our country men who have been tortured were innocent. Reporter condemnation around the globe as the white house says making the secret activities public was the right thing to do. The president did decide that the benefit of releasing this report, and taking a significant step to rebuild our moral authority was necessary. Military and intelligence officials continue monitoring for any violent reaction. The concern a demonstration could break out, such as those across the muslim world in 2012 after a u. S. Film mocked the prophet mohammad. Marines remain on alert ready to move. Officials insist they are always ready. I think i have never seen security taken as seriously as it has been in the last two years. A Monitoring Group has found some jihadi websites calling for retaliation against u. S. Personnel involved in the torture. Human Rights Groups calculate some 50 governments around the world secretly helped the cia, including thailand, egypt and morocco. Several years ago syria tortured a detainee after the cia helped to engineer sending him there and the libyans also shared information on tortured detainees. Countries who helped the cia now in a critical cross step. The former polish president said he knew the cia had a secret interrogation site in poland but he insists he knew nothing of the torture. Translator the americans, by publishing this report, in large part lose their ally abilities because in a new situation every country will be wondering to what extent the u. S. Can be trusted. Reporter even iran weighing in publicly on the report. Irans Supreme Leader posted a number of tweets about it and one of them said, and i quote, today the u. S. Government is a symbol of tyranny against humanity, even the American People are faced with cruelty. Thats the reaction from iran. Barbara starr, cnn, the pentagon. Lieutenant commander in the u. S. Navy reserve says he has some idea of what the detainees experienced because similar torture tactics were used on him. Ryan casey says it was part of a military Training Program called f. E. A. R. He talked to us earlier. These measures were never meant to, as a means to actually elicit reliable intelligence but to get you used to torture. Theres a big difference. Being tortured as it is, and i assure you it was very unles pleasant and as groggy as you are from sleep deprivation you know it is training. A real p. O. W. Or detail knee doesnt know it is training or if he or she will ever get out and see the light of day or their family. Thats a big difference. The point is it was never meant for interrogation. It was meant for torture. Thats an audacious claim that you make. That the enhanced interrogation techniques was not to extreme intelligent but to flex american muscles as you write. Do you believe the cia had no interest in obtaining any intelligence from this . No. Thats not what im saying at all. I think they thought they could get whatever information they could get. My point is they were going about it in the wrong way in a way that was never designed to work in the first place and the people doing it, as the Senate Intelligence report has reported these two guys had no training in international interrogation, no expertise in allocate tarks counterterrorism or anything of the like. Just before the report came out, george w. Bushs second in command when all of this happened called it a bunch of hooey. Vice president cheney took it a step further saying it is quote full of crap. Hear more of what he had to say in an interview with fox news. Khalid sheik mohammad the mastermind of 9 11, hit the pentagon, taken down the white house or capital building, the twin towe. He is in our possession. We know he is the architect. What are we supposed to do kiss him on the cheek and say tell us what you node of course not. We did what we had to do to prevaent further attack and we were successful on both parts. Cheney said president bush was involved in discussions about the cias interrogation techniques. The report says bush was kept in the dark about the torture tactics. This just in to cnn. An al qaeda affiliate has attacked yemens largest air base. Look at this map. Yemeni defense officials tell cnn six rockets were launched at the al annan air base near aden. They report a number of injuries but wont say if anyone was killed. On the twitter account militants said they targeted the u. S. Section of the base they say it is for the revenge for the death of muslims in this recent attempts to rescue luke somers killed by his captors. A suicide bomber killed five Afghan Soldiers in an attack that kill attacked an army vehicle. It comes as u. S. Troops prepare to shift their mission from combat to training and advising afghan troops at the end of this month. Still to come here on cnn, outrage in the west bank where a palestinian minister died after a scuffle with israeli troops. What caused his death . Its not exactly the middle of sand but a mystery and why the mystery may be solved. A call to action on behalf of children everywhere. Still come the message from the latest recipients of the Nobel Peace Prize. Christmas tree lights were burned out in bethlehems manger square. Abbas is calling the ministers death an intolerable act and they will investigate. Answer wane doctor in ramallah say Israeli Security forces are to blame. Reporter pushing and shoving are normal for protests in the west bank. This one north of ramallah ended with the death of a palestinian minister who was active in protests against the now 47yearold israeli occupation. First he was choked he recalls and then hit, kicked an an officer hit him from behind. He then lost consciousness. The doctor inspected his body an said the cause of death was clear. Asphyxia. The Statement Issued by the israeli army described the protesters as rioters, contradicting eyewitness accounts who said the demonstration was nonviolent. The army said it will conduct a review of the incident, adding a israeli pathologist will join a team of jordanian pathologists to look at the circumstances of his death. He was sentenced to life in prison in 1982 for his role in a bombing that killed two israeli teenage but released three years later in a prisoner exchange. In the wake of the killing abbas declared a threeday period of mourning and hes ordered his Security Services to halt coordination with the israelis. Small scattered clashes broke out in the west bank between Israeli Soldiers and palestinian youth. At a refugee camp, a 14yearold was seriously wounded in the head by, according to palestinian doctors, live ammunition. You tube video shows both sides trying to treat him at the scene. Ties between the Palestinian Authority and israel have been rocky since last spring when u. S. Brokered peace talks collapsed.

You see she is sharing this years award with a man from inya who is honored for fighting the oppression of children. The two called for unity in speeches given at the Award Ceremony in norway. If we are to real peace to the world we shall begin with the children. I humbly act. Let us unite the world through the compassion part of our children. Im not a lone wolf. Im not a lone voice. Im many. Im malala, but im also many. I am 66 Million Girls who are deprived of education. And today, im not raising my voice because the voice of those 66 Million Girls.

You are looking at live pictures from hong kong where police are telling protesters to pick up. Their time is up. Police are walking down the street and tearing down tents. Right now we are hearing some arrests have been made. Protesters are camped out there for two and a half months and they are demanding open elections in 2017. We are joined by our reporter in hong kong for us. I know there havent been clashes, per se, between protesters and police, although arrests have been made. What are you seeing on the ground . You can see hundreds lining in. What they are doing, they are moving in on the front lines. They are stepping forward, one by one, reclaiming what is a highway. What they want to return to being a highway. If you look in the distance they are using machinery to now pick up all of the tents of the belonging left behind by the protesters who have voluntarily cleared out. What the police have been doing is coming forward this this line, marching forward and pushing to the side, inch by inch, all of these, what was once the home of the protesters pushing them to the side waiting for machinery to pick them up. Some protesters have moved voluntarily and others are staying willing to be arrested. They are down there right now. There is a sitin going on and the police said if they need to they will use force. Lets have a listen. Translator anyone who refuses to leave from the thorough fare we will start to disperse and arrest them. In the process if there is a resistance or provocations or the use of force by the occupiers, we will have no other alternative and may use minimum force to reach our lawful objectives. Now we have seen a lot of symbolic moments all morning. We have seen the Police Pulling down the umbrellas left behind. We have seen protesters spreading the floor with glitter trying to leave a piece of themselves for. In the shadow of the umbrella remain the remnants of the tents and occupy Central Movement surrounded by the police. We only have a couple hundred meters left. By the way, if you can see the highway behind me. That is where we are seeing another line of Police Coming around. They brought with them the police van. Now they are driving down the highway. The first time we have seen any cars coming down here in more than two months. It is right down there. On this side of the highway. What we are seeing is the police close in on that. One of the protesters there is a billionaire businessman. Hes been supporting the protest. He says financially all the way through. Coming down and encouraging and supporting it. I put it to him that this movement has been a failure. They havent got what they wanted. This is what he said in spahn. So what they have been saying all along is this is the first of many more occupy or some kind of battles against both the Hong Kong Government and the governments of china for these demands. We have seen banners around today. It is just the beginning or well be back. What they are saying is they will be back in some other shape or form. For now they are closing in on the sit in down there. Looking behind you at the highway, clearly the police have their work cut out for them but they are being aggressive. Clearly they mean business. It is almost 4 30 in the afternoon and we appreciate it. Okay. That is cannon fire marking the birth of royal twins in monaco.

Mystery is washing up on beaches in western europe. 100yearold rubber blocks all bearing the same word have been appearing for decades. Now the enigma of where they came from may finally be solved. Old and washed up by the shore these rectangular rubber blocks have been a source of mystery and fascination. For many in england, france, norway and spain but a close inspection shows they are more than a slab of rubbish, they are the printed word which reads for 30 years now, people around europe have been bumping in to these while strolling through the peach. They have been so common they have their own facebook page. Jake taylor was walking on a nearby beach when he found one. I saw something on the floor and i thought im not picking that up on the beach anden then i thought it was interesting and picked the block up. It was rubber. And felt weird. Saw something written on it. So i took it home. It is not actually rubber but a gum of a tree found in malaysia, a material popular in the 19th and 20th sechblgry and used as a cover for underwater cable and some use them as chopping boards and others as decorations. Sits in my house looking pretty. I like it. It is rare and i dont think that many people have got them. It is a nice ornament. Many believe ship wreck is an explanation, the most prom dent the doomed titanic. It is also true other ships transported the rubber too. Experts believe the current direction would make a japanese ship a more likely origin. The ship was sank by a german submarine. Whatever the origin, experts believe these 100 year blocks have probably gone around the world a few times already and may still be found in beaches around the world for centuries to come. Cnn, england. Wonder whos heading to the beach to find their own. Me, right after this forecast.
