washington claims that iran's revolutionary guard is aiding the crackdown across syria retired u.s. air force lieutenant colonel karen in korea koski says america's chosen a route of slog of punishment in the region you know we are putting sanctions on. syria on the leadership the family at first sight we are putting sanctions in continuing expanding sanctions on iran we are protesting at the un for actions that these governments are taking or allegedly taking against their people unfortunately we are showing our hypocrisy because we're not doing that in saudi arabia we're not doing that entire range we supported the guys that were we backed the guys did back us if they let us do it like me we'll pull over look any syrian government's will do and i think it's becoming very obvious not just to the rest of the world but i think it's been watching this but even sure americans these operations are

unpopular in the united states americans do not understand what we are doing a regime change types of approaches implying certainly with regard to syria and iran has been a long term united states or at least washington d.c. policy why we want to do that to recent oil and israel these are the two reasons that we are interested in in this area. nato together with the libyan rebels have dismissed an offer from tripoli for us cease fire and the staging of peace negotiations a coalition insists there will be no talks until colonel gadhafi stops the bloodshed the libyan opposition says it's too late now for any talk of compromise but often earlier warned rebels in the besieged city of misrata to lay down their arms or face a full scale offensive during his speech nato bombs struck a governmental building in the capital tripoli libyan officials claim the strike was meant to kill their leader unrest which started in february has already burned

more than ten thousand lives according to the rebels. and we are keeping you up to date on the latest from the middle east to rival palestinian groups fatah and hamas agreed earlier in the week to unite their governments in the west bank and gaza the move comes ahead of a u.n. vote on palestinian statehood in september the palestinian foreign affairs minister told r.t. that he'd prefer to negotiate independence directly with israel but he's finding that that is difficult. since lecithin but. there's release have been avoiding. committing themselves into serious negotiations they have refused requests of the international community to seize the store personnel but even these as international. played a condition for the resumption of negotiation and since then you know we did not have any kind of negotiations with the israelis so our position is that

by september we should have to put the same state as was promised to us by president but obama by the international community by the court date and everybody else says we will be ready by the studios in building on situations and so you know september should yield to even the civil state either through. negotiation with the israelis and this is really what the preferred choice or if that's not the case you know we should seek. you under commission that was a reality of the palestinian foreign affairs minister there will be much more from him in an in-depth interview he gave to us that airs early next week. military service isn't an easy task but in russia young recruits often face horrific a bullying when they join the army human rights organizations have been lobbying in

attempts to help eradicate the problem but as our jake agrees reports in some cases it's simply too late we must warn you that this report contains of what it. graphic violence it's a disturbing site one that's on the right of russian. it's called hazing ability and it's all too familiar with its consequences you can hear in that in the reports about thought is that frank physically and mentally are coming in every day . she runs the committee of soldiers mothers an organization partly funded by the government on a day to day basis her job is to protect soldiers from the harsh realities of service and you have their protection rackets when it would have to pay and now the soldiers say seventy dollars a month to be able to serve normally read from morning unfortunately as we met one more cases added to her workload serving people died at age twenty in suspicious

circumstances the military claims it was a road accident but his family want to know why forty minutes passed before medical attention was sought his loved ones now join a list of other grief families awaiting out says over a year ago very until his attention was turned to that of circulation because of it died just a week into his service is a loss his mother still for us not to bear. is that which. is. just to. give. you. the official explanation was pneumonia but pictures of his body appear to tell a different story deal my son's body was covered with bruises all over the bruises were skillfully cut out of his skin so cynical still unresolved surrogates is

a rare case common of those who receive beatings that lead and hospitalized and with lasting injuries soldiers such as to me tree after serving just six months he was literally coma for three months following a run in with a senior squad member. of i can't remember what happened but when i woke up i had a severe head injury which there followed a long and tedious we had dilatation process which is not yet over. the rise of such crimes has led some to find new ways to raise awareness and those right fund is one such group they create a web page where families can post personalize the celts of what happened to soldiers listing everything from their rank and years of service to how they died today their receipt of a four thousand three hundred quests for very family members wanting their story told. the peace is acknowledged by the militia defense after asking them to comment on the situation they gave us this response. the two major reasons behind the

phenomenon of hazing and bullying in the russian army are the following an increase in the number of draftees mistakes of individual commanders. last year the energy initiated two thousand military hearings is a response many will feel is left wanting the less hazing is no longer an issue rush. the army is looking to model turning away from ask the scription to professionalize force to do this they were lie on new recruits meaning in the future the health of individual soldiers may be central to that of the nation's armed forces. griefs see. still to come on of the program a new way to slavery thousands of chinese workers had to israel in the hope of finding a better life but for many the reality in the jewish state is far from their dream job plus. the rich keep getting richer are you ok with that

economy continues to cause a lot of people a lot of difficulties and yet the rich keep getting richer are you ok with that this week let's talk about that well i mean we have to talk about what is actually defined rich i mean for people to say that families making two hundred fifty k. a year combined being rich as some people define rich is completely absurd absurd that lower middle class although we don't see it there's a lot of work they have to do you don't get rich overnight you think do you think the people on wall street are working harder than you are no i don't but i think they might be working smarter. so do they deserve money for that. millions of dollars of your taxpayer dollars i don't know that it's my taxpayer dollars well they got. bailed out they got millions and millions of dollars rightists agree i disagree with the bailout completely they knew that they were betting against swarms of homes being foreclosed on and mortgages were kind of bomb and people started losing their homes is that still ok people who can afford to buy homes so

accumulated wealth whether or not you think the rich deserve to keep getting richer the bottom line is it's going to continue to happen unless something drastically changes. but they say money can't buy you love but it may score you a first day a new website in the usa must have put together couples based on one person agreeing to pay for a date and the other agreeing to take the money critics say that doesn't sound like a new kind of transaction but rather the one going or things are starting to trickle down reports. remember the d.s. when real life courtship was the ticket to romance if you do websites like this may feed those memories fast what's your price dot com it's a new dating service launched in las vegas where intelligence or a sense of humor apparently don't invited the big fat does members are split into
