events in the middle east and north africa do you think that we're seeing genuine social unrest or are we seeing some kind of orchestrated revolt and if so who do you think is behind all this is genuine change in some parts of the little things i mean egypt is a clinical but i was concerned at the beginning of the egyptian revolution as to whether we just saw a changing of the changes in the. mains of the same existing power structure whether something really different was happening after mubarak played because we saw really revolutions occurring in every institution we've seen here from alexandria. so you've got to sort of change it's hard time. what's happening in some other country be different so the situation in libya is clearly has told me the state actors you know give evidence that something has been driven by

because now it is normal for neighboring countries to have interconnections with each other and activists from different countries going to different companies businesses in different countries and states from neighboring countries that's normally when outside forces from very very far flung countries start to take an aggressive role you know regional affair. we have to look a bit more and say what's going on it's not normal so what's happening in libya for example is not normal and social networking what role do you think sites like facebook and twitter have played in the revolutions in the middle east how easy would you say it is to manipulate media like facebook in particular on. it is the most appalling spying mission that has ever been invented here we have the world's most comprehensive database about people and their relationships in the names that addresses your location it's only three communications we need to have

a real three full city and we've been in the united states all excessive and i mean you would think only facebook. google yahoo always making this organization have been into place and for u.s. intelligence. it's not a matter of serving a subpoena they have a need to face and they have developed we must intelligence communities now he's a pick ace that facebook. is actually run by u.s. intelligence and it's not like that it's simply that u.s. intelligence is able to bring to bear the legal and political pressure to them and it's costly for them to hand there are records and one by one so they have automated the process and everyone should understand that so they when they have their friends to facebook they are going free work for the united states intelligence agencies. in the building is part of it's worth it let's talk about.

the latest survey wiki leaks cables that have been released they show the u.k. as a haven for extremism with at least thirty five guantanamo detainees having at least past three you k. is the u.k. still a haven for terrorists still being a haven for terrorists certainly a haven for all the guards and former regime dictators who come here i mean you remember the famous pinochet trial where the execution of pinochet from the u.k. which the if that's true resistance. incredibly using a lawyer that is involved in in trying to exit right and me from the united kingdom now part of that is perhaps a good it's an example of true liberalism in the united kingdom everyone come here . on the other hand there does seem to be at least connect between these really supporting free speech activists like me who can't communicate

but on the other hand it is supporting people like sons of gadhafi and tell the information why has within weeks released it now i mean it seems to sort of sort of to be to be off to the fact is it because obama has recently announced his we're election campaign and obviously closing guantanamo was one of his main election promises was a number of reasons why we released him now the primary one is that we are a small organization very committed man and last year we came under it's receive ordinary attack all these things continue to go on so they really dampen down their ability to move quickly popular because the timing is good obama has given up on closing guantanamo and it's decided to reopen the trial process and we now have a situation where even the. ministration says that forty eight of the people who

when confronted with him are completely innocent and the patient the same something i mean nothing from something so completely innocent people incarcerated for years and you can hear no trial no hope everyone no no country will greet them including state of the united states has made me the problem. in nine states and involved in rounding up these units and setting up a process that was from the very beginning corrupt there's a reason why they are in guantanamo and not on the us mainland and not you know in a country that resembles to hide them and keep them outside of the law just like you have caribbean are bones of contention money laundering rights principles and cajun people wondering but let's move on and talk about your media partners one of which is the guardian with whom you are now involved in a dispute but you chose them as your primary english language part that they're distributing weekly's cables and now guardian journalists to publish this book on

wiki leaks which you say is an attack on me how would you describe thawing that the gods is the guardian stance on whistleblowing and media freedom in general are they are they are publishing organizations so of course they want as much right for them to propositions as possible that's a natural i'm self interest and what they have done with cable cooking in this incredible reduction over reduction of cables is they have pushed the right with the people to know the very very edge and what they're concerned about. he has any possible attack on them but we have seen this sort of abuse. of the material that we have provided. several times and the guardian guardian is the worst offender but we saw it also by new york times a new york times where he directed

a sixty two page cable down to two paragraphs and this is completely against the agreement to be regionally set up with on november the first. also you know that agreement was that the only reductions that should take place are to protect people's lives and should be no. reduction not to protect reputation not not to protect the guardian's profits i think i need to protect lives what happens in the west is that there is no border between state interest and commercial so that the edges of the state as a result of privatization all fall and blued out into the ages of companies and when you look at how the guardian behaves or have a new york times behaves. it is part of that mesh of corporate and state interests seamlessly and we're going to rejoin the audience concerned predominantly about

being criticized by these untruths about lawsuits and curator instead. driven by i will guard standing by people powerful enough to push. the case forward let's talk a little bit about you and what you are going through at the moment you are currently fighting extradition to sweden what are your fears should you be extradited that the problem is in two parts. united states is trying to get up an execution case for me can the united states. just today we see a new subpoena coming out of the secret grand jury that is operating in alexandria virginia is trying to get our planes espionage claims against them. he is. building that case around whatever country i mean

once decides to indict they will try to extract me from that country. possibly not there's any possibility i witnessed them. and the other problem with the sweet expedition is that the process itself has been corrupted. so he was corrupt from the very beginning and we've seen corruption that's why his media we've seen. all sorts of strange actions in relation to how this case is progressed what message do you think it would send to the world if the u.k. did turn around almost unexpectedly at this point it seems and refused to extradite you which means on which country so here's the sort of calculation it's going on in the united kingdom. the united kingdom wants to keep it to various levels wants to keep its good relationship with united states. so if the u.k. was to reject the u.s. thinks additional time that would pose terrible problems similarly if

it was to reject the swedish extradition that would pose problems because it would look like it was seeking to harbor me and this is the sort of difficult situation that afghanistan. repeatedly is harboring did not. receive response from any country which he used to be harboring us as united states is trying to conduct its aggressive response. faces going to corporations between united kingdom. does it came to examine the united states. faces if you will position politically. which is the bulk of the people in the kingdom support us and finally jim who do you consider to be your number one enemy our number one enemy is ignorance. and i believe that is the number one immediate

everyone. is not understanding what is actually going on in the world it's only when you start to understand you can make of it the decisions in effect and plans you know kristen is he was promoting ignorance well those organizations and tried to keep things secret. and those organizations which distort truth may shine to make a difference misrepresentative this latter category. it is bad media and i mean it really is my opinion that the media it in general are so bad we we have to question whether the world would be better off without them all together. that is so distorted of to how the world actually uses. the resulted so we see wars and we see corrupt governments continue around one of the hopeful things i've discovered is that really gave every war that has started

in the past fifty years has been a result of media lies and immediately has got that if they had searched enough they hadn't reprinted government propaganda they could have stopped but what does that mean that means basically populations don't like words and populations have to be fooled into wars population willingly and with open eyes going to work so if we have a good media environment then we also have a peaceful environment today that's our thanks very much.

the week's top stories here on r.t. most wanted terrorist is killed by u.s. troops bringing cheering crowds onto the streets but leaving it somewhat puzzled by inconsistency is something the united states for version of events also a refusal to show pictures of bin laden's body fueling conspiracy theories. nato members look at siphoning support for the libyan rebels with washington planning to release gadhafi has frozen assets but russia warns of the alliances involvement is getting dangerously close to a ground invasion. troops rests in syria with no signs of an end to the fighting washington and the e.u.
