9:05 am
. president medvedev has called on nato to clarify exactly what role russia has in the alliances anti missile defense plans in europe. partners must realize we need to talk not to play games with nato we need to defend russia properly that's both my responsibility as the president and other officials so this is not a joke we're expecting our nato partners to give us a direct and clear answer about where they see russia's role in any case by the together with nato. we will find a proper answer to the existing problem. nato has missile defense plans in europe have long been a bone of contention between the alliance and moscow russia has repeatedly expressed concern the project may threaten its security at a nato summit in lisbon that last november president movie have ever said russia
9:06 am
doesn't necessarily want to take part in the alliances initiative but does have proposals of its own secretary general anders fogh rasmussen says nato envisages two independent missile defense systems with russia that would operate side by side and plans to discuss this soon with moscow. well lawmakers in a rushers upper house of parliament say they've taken advice from experts to ratify a landmark arms reduction deal between moscow and washington they now have to wait for the start treaty to pass its third and a final hearing in the lower house on tuesday the agreement was signed by president spent a year there and obama last year and will slash the country's nuclear arsenals by a third it has already been approved by the u.s. senate which included its own interpretations of the text in response russian legislature to stress that moscow could withdraw from the deal in the future if it felt threatened by u.s. missile defense plans in europe lawmaker. says that when the pact takes effect
9:07 am
other states could follow suit. we very much hope that the arms race is now becoming history and at some point we might be able to talk about a disarmament race we are going to ratify the treaty in order to follow the pact and it's our hope that our american partners ratified the agreement with the same goal we also hope that the start treaty between moscow and washington will lead to other countries joining the talks over reducing strategic nuclear weapons this treaty is not a full stop in resetting ties between russia and the us or in our dialogue about strategic arms and anti missile defense we should reach further agreements because if we fail to do so the whole world will be balancing on a very dangerous ledge. this is our life from the heart of the russian capital and back to our breaking news now there has been a blast moscow's damage yet of a port in the international arrivals hall there are reports of at least two people having died and dozens of injured have been injured dozens of others have been
9:08 am
injured rather the main airport and its main building is being evacuated and more on this breaking news story as we get it right here on r.t. . well palestinian leaders have denied allegations they offered a territorial concessions to israel during middle east peace talks the claims were made in over a thousand leaked documents uncovered by a news network al-jazeera its alleged israel rejected a proposal which would have allowed it to keep parts of occupied east jerusalem affecting the right of return for palestinian refugees let's not get reaction from a georgia dana who's a journalist for an online magazine and now it joins us live hello to you. shot with the palestinian leadership public position as most people know on both the territories and refugees has always been very firm so tell me this how much of a shock would these allegations be for the palestinians themselves.
9:09 am
well for those that are dealing with the conflict they haven't been very shocking what they have provided is ultimately confirmation that it is actually israel that has not been a viable peace partner in these negotiations and that israel is not actually interested in an equitable two state solution with the palestinians so the palestinian leadership though is very heavily denying making any proposed concessions do you think they were actually are considering what was in the documents themselves. was difficult to say what with what they were considering but what what we see with the palestinian authority is that they. unfortunately trusted the israelis to be a partner for peace negotiations and that they were able to to offer a lot of concessions especially in jerusalem which had disastrous disastrous effects on the ground i know from my personal reporting on the ground in an eastern neighborhood that these concessions. resulted in the eviction of many palestinian
9:10 am
families as the israelis understood that palestinian authority spokesman's were ready to relinquish territory now if indeed the palestinian leadership did suggest such concessions why would israel turn them down when there's been such an ongoing conflict here. well israel i said previously is clearly not interested in an equitable two state solution with the palestinian authority or with palestinians in general israel clearly is interested in maintaining a status quo which necessarily includes a permanent state of war both for israelis and palestinians. and the status quo features israel controlling the west bank territories through various means of occupation and the complete severing of the gaza strip from the west bank and so i believe that this is not shocking information but it does provide ultimate
9:11 am
confirmation that this is the israeli tactic in terms of facts on the ground now with these and with these allegations being made here do you think that this could discredit the leadership in the eyes of the palestinians and possibly end up giving more power to hamas. i think clearly that's what we're going to see in in coming days in which hamas is going to to rally behind these cables in so far as demonstrating that they are the legitimate form of resistance for the palestinians and and this serves as confirmation that the palestinian authority is actually a very effective tool of israeli occupation itself now again what is shocking about this is not and not necessarily the palestinian authority's position but it's that israel has shown through these cables that it is not ready for an equitable two state solution with the palestinians and that it has absolutely no desire in splitting up drusilla and other territories and that it would maintain it would
9:12 am
prefer to maintain the status quo the deadly status quo of occupation that we've had since one thousand nine hundred sixty seven. all right john mr joseph dana bash joining us live from jerusalem thank you. thank you now back to our breaking news this hour here on r.t. there's been a blast at moscow's don't know yet over airport in the international arrivals hall there are reports of at least two people having died and at least twenty others have been injured the main airport building is being evacuated we'll bring you the latest developments on this story as soon as we get it this is breaking news right here on r.t. . the man accused of shooting u.s. congresswoman gabrielle giffords in the head will be in court for a preliminary hearing on monday jared lee went on a shooting spree at a public event on the eighth of january in arizona six people were killed and thirteen others wounded this a high profile case is just one of a string of violent incidents involving guns in the u.s.
9:13 am
on sunday two people were killed and two policemen injured after a man began shooting at them outside a department store in the state of washington that same day a gunman went into a police station in detroit and shot four officers before being gunned down the violence has many americans calling for tougher gun control laws but as lauren lyster reports some see the weapon as part of their culture they say that taking it away goes against the history. you're looking at is ready for. the age of five for the right to bear arms. the target of debate in the united states. just because you have an individual right does not mean. the state or local government can't constrain think you can carry a gun in chicago. and in my world everybody on the bus could have a gun like making liberal shoot guns i just don't think we should be allowed to bring them home. but travel more than six hundred miles south.
9:14 am
follow the same well worn tracks taken here during the civil war and you're transported to. kennesaw georgia. a world of these. days where second amendment rights are sized all the time everybody except for one except whenever you go to be a it's a way of life in the south a gun is just part of the household just like a hammer isn't a tool box and in the town of kennesaw. it's the law on may first one thousand nine hundred two they passed that law requiring all heads of household to own a gun. you heard them right everyone here must own a gun it was a rebuttal to mo wrong grove illinois play call it more and grow we call it moron grove who passed a law banning firearms and i think with the law itself that got people in kennesaw take off it was performing coverage it received in what today we would call the
9:15 am
mainstream press the battle with the mainstream doesn't end there issues in which the point kennesaw or through a lot of the south would have the i exactly opposite viewpoint appear to reach much further back than the gun law my name is dennis myers the name my storage wildman show up here past meets present. the taboo original claim uniform except for the. klan correct is not of people offended when they think i don't know whenever i ask them why would you be offended if you were to play. the confederate flag has a home not far from the american one and is praised means that we had four years of destruction in this area here when we were trying to repair the invaders it's a historical thing and i have very much respect him of forty two racism is that
9:16 am
what you mean with this civil war it will have some. one from that era for more between states wasn't civil no civil war a civil war is a war then one country we had to come to confront it stays. and you know it's true for murder and it's not over either or anything a teenager before but. well you know delia no modern work and. there's a lot of people here i think the civil war is still a current topic not a historical topic in kenya saw the u.s. civil war is never far away and back there are three historic battlefields like this one within a ten mile radius of the town thank you and in their modern day battle for gun owners' rights it also seems to be connected to this southern history lauren mr r t kennesaw georgia. well you can always get more news on our website that's r.t. dot com let's get back to our breaking news now this hour there's been
9:17 am
a blast at moscow's domodedovo airport and the international arrivals hall where passengers collect their luggage there are reports of at least two people having died about twenty others are injured the main airport building is now being evacuated investigators are working at the scene of the explosion and police in moscow are reportedly checking metro stations and other public areas for other possible explosives more on this breaking news story as we get it right here on r.t. . religious education could soon become a compulsory subject in russian schools currently being tested on a trial basis the move could see students study one of four major religions but some critics say that instead of teaching the values of different faiths the experiment could breed intolerance party talks on a boy reports. it looks like any other class with quizzes home or being sat on an extensive syllabus yet it is the only one in this church in school where
9:18 am
pupils on the with graded they're studying the basics of islam the predominant religion here wishing you islam teaches respect kindness peace and tolerance. peace and tolerance rounded top of their agenda when russia's ministry of education began testing religious subjects as part of the secondary curriculum last year the experiment allows students to study one of the major religions or concentrate on secular ethics yet while trying to provide room for all it's also putting pupils of different religious backgrounds in different classrooms. and i think it was wrong to do right students so that some focus on christianity will either study islam we all live in one country and we all have to know some basics about each other's feeds that divides in children this is not a good idea at all. the organizers of the experiment said just that schools should be able to provide classes and any religion no matter how small the group being
9:19 am
taught the shortage of financing often means that only one or two classes are offered. here in the town of costume mind central russia the children are well right about orthodox christianity but few are able to name all the religions practiced in russia. and in mind other faiths but i like orthodox christianity because it's a religion of our homeland. it's not about three hundred thousand students just two percent of the total school population are taking part in the project and while most of the schools involved would prefer to keep spiritual subjects on the timetable experts say the initiative needs a thorough revision before it's rolled out further first of all this is clear discrimination against kids who are not religious so what are they going to do. they're going to be separate from the class or what and actually it's also
9:20 am
a tremendous pressure to accept one or another for religion not because the blue of this religion but all of the go there have to because everybody has to belong to some religious community which is again. democratic. the line between teaching religion and not indoctrination is fine and a subject which for many families should stay at home we all know that the road to how is space with good intentions and while the educational experiment hasn't yet been declared either a success or a failure some fear that instead of promoting religious tolerance and cultural understanding it may actually false or ethnic bias and social segregation at some point artsy. cooperating news this hour here on r.t. there's been a blast at moscow's dome idea out of africa and the international arrivals hall where passengers collect their luggage there are reports of at least two people
9:21 am
having died although there are some suggestions that number could be as as high. around two twenty others off to the interest now we can get the latest maltese are going to go to school she joins us live by the telephone to give us more details on this developing situation. thank you for joining us can you just bring us up today we'll get the latest you know that's happened to me that if that is a considered to be the biggest of the three main ackwards here in russia. that's right it is one of the it is the biggest and the busiest airport in the russian capital so of course his last is going to carry immense complications we do know right now that the blast has started sixteen thirty two it's four four thirty two pm this afternoon so not even an hour has passed by after the blast all we also know according to preliminary reports that blast has occurred in the luggage area luggage distribution area although the terminal there have been reports that at least i like you said at least two people have been confirmed dead of course there
9:22 am
are there are speculations that the number could rise significantly some are saying ten. ten ten dead the number could be as large as ten or maybe even higher we do know that at least twenty people have been injured but of course all of these reports are just coming in so we cannot say for certain exactly the number of injured we also know that the airport authorities are evacuating the passengers and everybody else from determine though of course they have to figure out if a for instance a chance for another explosion occurring any time in the future or not also there are have been reports that this is suicide blast so at this point is it's definitely looking like a terrorist attack possibly but at this point exactly this is not certainly hit so we're still waiting for the reports from the police from the airport authorities on this issue and of course we're going to be bringing you more details on the last like you said just want to recap the last it occurred four thirty two pm this
9:23 am
afternoon in mosco at the dome did a great airport at least two fifty two people have been confirmed dead are. twenty are confirmed to be injured and of course we're going to bring you a whole the latest information as soon as possible and the students get it and we know as you were saying to me that if apple is considered to be the largest employer in russia in terms of passenger and cargo traffic and last year twenty two point two five approximate million passengers did go through german dead if we've gone should i meet you. as well as the police are getting a grip on this now what are the expectations although the police and security teams and investigators how would they be cooled ning off the area as we speak and what do you think would be the general atmosphere in russia's biggest airport now off of this explosion well i have to say they have a job laid out for them in that regard because of course the airport i mean this is a meaty part of course they also helpful always to deal with the safety of not just the one the other but i mean we don't know we do not know anything at this point
9:24 am
what this was what the explosion has been so of course they will have to figure out a way to reroute people to different airports they will have to figure out a way to clear all of the area around it so all the cars and job losses and everything else and of course this is going to heavily damage i guess the infrastructure of the airports the group probably also have two. very extensive security checks and the like you said at the rest of most those airports are they have no clue will become and god sure him if he was well so there's a lot of jobs they have to do there is a lot of work that they have to do also of course this is going to implement the travel plans of a lot of people and that of course we also have to keep in my brain imagining that at this point as it does i'm domodedovo airport the tricycle we've got a panic i mean all the sudden you have an explosion in middle of the busiest airport in the middle of the day so they would also have to control people psychologically so this is something that no school police is fully free to have to
