chance of having a play the poor legislation means it's the children suffer in the. plus stock markets around the world are gaining as washington ounces progress on raising goods that ceiling more and that's in business in twenty minutes. very well thank you this is live from moscow now the fallout of surrounding rupert murdoch's media empire is spreading as related arrests and resignations continue even the british prime minister has been forced to face parliament to explain why he employed an excuse called edison into his administration faces the demise of john the szell who reignites debate over another high profile death at the heart of the different drama. report. another political scandal erupts
7:02 am
another whistleblower diaries sean hoare was the first former news of the world journalists to go on the record to allege that phone hacking was endemic at the paper and that its editor andy colson actively encouraged it who was found dead in his house on monday setting a blog a sphere into a frenzy of comparisons with the case of dr david kelly why isn't the sun horror story bigger reminds me of how dr david kelly was bumped off eerily similar tragedies of seen war and the killing all this madness and war there and david kelly sean who are there is what i'm thinking something's not right. talk to kelly was the u.n. weapons inspector who first cast doubt on the government's claim that iraq could deploy weapons of mass destruction within forty five minutes it led to scrutiny of tony blair's decision to invade iraq by extraordinary coincidence kelly's body was discovered exactly eight years before that of sean hordes on the eighteenth of july
7:03 am
two thousand and three it was british journalist andrew gilligan who david kelly had spoken to to publicize his belief that the forty five minute claim had been exaggerated iligan believes there are similarities between kelly and sean hoare being at the center of one of these storms a terrifying experience that i really don't believe either david or short haul was murdered because. i simply don't think it would have been in anyone's interest to murder them once they got into the public spotlight anyone with an iota of sense in government would have known that to kill them we're just we're just amplify the story i think it's simply i think both were under enormous pressure from their roles as whistle blows and and found it difficult to cope with that pressure short haul was evidence could have been crucial to proving that the news of the world editors supported a culture of listening to private voice mail sports stories because former editor andy kaufman he later became a media director to the current prime minister has always denied the allegations
7:04 am
and was destroyed professionally by news international the journalistic world in london is a very small place and the man was distraught he was well known who was drinking too much taking drugs he was depressed to be moralized police are saying hall's death doesn't appear suspicious and they're looking at suicide dr kelly's death was also recorded as suicide although many including leading doctors and m.p.'s have never accepted that their suspicions of hardly been quelled by the fact the post-mortem report and other evidence has been classified for seventy years. ten arrests six resignations two convictions and one death that the toll of the phone hacking scandal so far that the key whistleblower scandal has raised questions but they thought only about the twitter aussie it's being reported as a horrible and unfortunate coincidence but it's doubtful that if this has happened
7:05 am
elsewhere say in russia or in india the british media would be so quick to accept it as a coincidence it's a killer to get sat in the light at the death of david kelly. as david cameron tries to explain his links with them. whole times could take their toll on cameron and. what really gave the story legs was the fact that david cameron. the disgraced. cosen of the conservative party for the maiden mr richards communications now i don't think without without that kind of. legs given to the story i think it probably wouldn't have been quite so great as it is now but the fact is there's been some errors of judgment it turns out. the governing conservative party but the prime minister david cameron yet again his chief of staff has been shown to be essentially instigating
7:06 am
a cover up by the connections because in hard to see the phone hacking and making sure that the prime minister then leader of the opposition david cameron did know about it there's been a large amount of fingers in ears and just a kind of heads in the sand and that is lethal for prime minister and he's now in a real fight he's in a really really bad situation he could well be looking at some serious consequences for himself very least still around him. still to come on the program use dark soldiers for israel and the war against lebanon are finding themselves stuck in a country that's forgotten their existence. georgia's latest spy saga has taken yet another twist of b.c. now says three photojournalists locked up on charges of espionage on behalf of russia have confessed their guilt but as i ask you that in a good report there are concerns that the suspects were worse into admitting crimes
7:07 am
they didn't commit. and then there were none the last georgian photographer to deny allegations of spying has apparently changed his story he now admits the charges video testimony of joerg at the largest confession of spying for russia was released by prosecutors to the media but most journalists are skeptical about this latest development for our thoughts in all this is very strange and there is in the middle of a night out and it is in very case has been marked as the secret all of these raises questions and not getting any answers and his compassion is a serious face three easier because we have made doubts about this whole deal. and you will get their lives and maintained his innocence ever since he along with three other photojournalists was arrested at the beginning of this month old including president mikhail saakashvili his personal photographer were accused of passing on top secret information to russia's military intelligence or initially
7:08 am
insisted they were innocent and then one by one the photographers started changing their testimonies eventually three of them incriminated themselves in his can asure but up the law they insisted he was not guilty and even went on hunger strike to provoke this point in fact his lawyer says the photographer seems to have traced his mind over the space of just ten minutes and that's led to questions over the circumstances under which the photographer it seems to have changed his story managing editor of all your newspaper dhimmitude he grabs it believes these admissions of guilt show the case has been fabricated. we live in a totalitarian state today all current is concentrated in the hands of president saakashvili and if someone goes against him then all of us will end up like this if the interior ministry has any other proof of their guilt he wouldn't have to force these confessions are you to them basically this is a message for all of us journalists including me and you. members of the media
7:09 am
heard the message loud and clear and stage a protest outside the jail where three talk refers are being held and preliminary detention human rights activists meanwhile believe. this system of powering the country i'll get around the world it's very likely that our dillard's are will be forced to ask for my removal from the case investigators want everyone who can interfere out of the picture so they can lead it the way they want to they want the case of the photographers to end without any public discussion and that's possible if all the rest to plead guilty. and well would he's seems outrageous to journalists and really ordinary people it's just the latest in the seemingly endless string of spies scandals in georgia. r.t. you can find more background on hunger dalton's spy scandal unfolded on our website about dot com also the naked ambition to find out how ukrainian people are out

there so their support for the order of the top professors. was highly different topics cat lovers could see be the worst being on balance of life go get its own temple barricaded the line creatures. free storage free. range three. free. free. free volunteer video for your media project free video r.t. dot com. so being of origins have announced the arrest of the country's last remaining un crying's a fugitive when he was being sought for transients ranging from murder to religious prosecution jaring the conflict between her and yugoslavia and the early ninety's it palos the arrest of
7:11 am
a lot it wanted the hague tribunals and similar crimes marking thirty years tried to overcome obstacles in the way of its bid to join the world for more that's cause life after alexander pov it appears the analyst based in belgrade have its many thoughts of being with us here at r.t. now why do you think that belgrade has waited until now to arrest both had it i'm glad it. well i think the serbian authorities claimed the couldn't find them before of course the opposition here claims that this is all part of a. election campaign because parliamentary elections are due here early next year and many here in the opposition think that this is all in the function of getting some points from you because the current government is desperate to get candidacy and the beginning of negotiations for expression saw some are interpreted
7:12 am
as putting the timing close to the election so this can be exploited both internally and externally it's ok well short of the focus now to the hague why do you think that the international criminal tribunal bear is also stay focused on so be in war time leaders right now. i'm sorry can you. trouble hearing. i was also why do you think that the international criminal tribunals in the hague is also so focused on serbian timely it is well you know this is the story of the hague from the start the hague tribunal from the start has actually been designed to criminalize all serbian activity from the ninety's from the civil wars in yugoslavia because serbia has been practically the only state that wasn't. fully pro western ally and serbia is being reviewed by the worst is the only potentially major russian ally in the in the region for this reason the hague tribunal was
7:13 am
practically set up a plan only. to make sure that the official version of the wars has serbia as being the main guilty party and everything that the serbs did in their defense was to be criminalized and hodge was just the last on the list of all that had to be exported and extradited to the hague just like largely for him a very emotive response there i mean do you not feel that the trials carried out so far in the hague have been fair and do you think that this latest arrest how it's of course being the last major war crimes figure from the period of the conflict is that now draw a line under this whole process. well it draws a line in the sense that there won't be any more international pressure i mean international western pressure on serbia to extradite anybody else you know there are no more fugitives from from the hague so everyone has been extradited but of
7:14 am
course now we're going to have the trials and the trials are part of major effort to rewrite the history of this entire region and of the balkan balkan wars from the one nine hundred ninety s. so we still have that to handle and especially even more than the trial of them a lot of the trial will be very interesting because of. the controversial story about sort of the need so many facts that are still unknown and also the involvement of western intelligence agencies and western governments in the whole breakup of yugoslavia we still have that of course western media is going to try as they have so far to ignore or to minimize whatever portions of the trials are dealing with their own rule but. i guess russia today and other similar outlets are going to be dealing with that side so hopefully the global order tory will get to see part of the other side of the story if they cover the trials that are still
7:15 am
ongoing live because they are saying it's you are an objective viewpoint and not a lot of time to oversee or quite critical of what's happening at the hague i'm afraid we are out of time for now but alexander puppets many thanks for your thoughts for speaking to us from belgrade. thank you. ok eleven years after israel's retreat from lebanon thousands of soldiers are still struggling it's ok but the consequences of that withdrawal that members of the so-called south lebanese army he backed israeli forces and they feel their sacrifice has gone on recognized that one up almost soldier he says there's little support from the country he fought for. there's only one thing for wise national dreams about and that is to return home but home is southern lebanon and he's stuck here on the other side of the border in northern israel. that's my whole five kilometers away eleven years ago for was was one of several thousand christian mini's to flee with
7:16 am
the israeli army as a cliff lebannon for eighteen years the israelis had been fighting the palestine liberation organization and hizbollah on lebanese soil helped by the south lebanon army and militia of christians cheers andrews who controlled the south of the country this old lebanese army didn't freud for israel as a world that didn't fight for self. it wasn't living in the between them and us that growing domestic pressure in israel of the high losses suffered by the army finally convinced the government to withdraw and it did so quickly. area epstein was a soldier at the time and says the lebanese soldiers who helped israel were left behind almost like sitting ducks and that's what. if we're soldiers knew little about a sleeping they for sure knew even less there was some sort of selection the commanders were brought here but i'm sure if you were a driver not much was done for you. some seven thousand south lebanon army soldiers
7:17 am
crossed into israel those who were left behind were tried jailed and sometimes killed as traitors for was an option was one of those who got heart alive he'd been working with israeli intelligence opting to recruit lebanese spies i did not want to run here i wanted to die fighting with the israeli intelligence almost forced me to cause i was told you know too much but the way they treat me now is a shame they forced me to run away and now they spit on my face six months ago i'm not a lawyer found for was living in a tent on the street it was hardly surviving on a few hundred dollars a month the israeli government gave him i feel ashamed. in my country they're treating not only the peso for was not jim but told them people that remain in state in israel why the country and the state of israel are treating them like. it's a charge the government is aware of although it says it's doing its best to help him by giving cash education and in some cases although not in far as his home we
7:18 am
are paying for them from them already eleven years. ago the thing that we don't have to do we must. with this very unique. it's a very unique nobody did it do the. european union any level nobody of them. good successes to go in the room. but still that treatment was not enough to stop two thirds of those who came to israel from immigrating elsewhere but i feel betrayed the beast sitting in the special intelligence forces have not given me any held since i've been here this is the israeli lebanese border and this friends used to be known as the good friends but in the last eleven years since the israelis withdrew from lebanon the situation has deteriorated and this is close the defense has since become close friends and through its bars israel's forgotten
7:19 am
friends seem condemned to fit if a peek at the family they're more than likely never see again policy archie on israel living on the border. ok let's take a quick check now some other top stories from around the world and dozens of the protests by the japanese embassy in south korea against taking a decision to boycott korean air to the airlines test flight over the speed territory korean air through its new flagship a three eighty. which upon its territory if you can't confront the disputing with sovereignty of the islands for many years the region is located in the east sea and the distance from japan and south korea. u.s. president barack obama has welcomed a bipartisan senate proposal designed to cut the conference huge debt plan aims to decrease the deficit by about four trillion u.s. dollars over the next decade already more teacher reductions will mean the affects health education and labor programs with only two weeks there to avoid leaving the

old lawmakers from both parties all the discussing raising the federal borrowing limit. and when it comes to starting a family the terms couples here in russia will stop at nothing many of the country's six million infertile partners if they thought if the is their only chance of having a child it is by the cards being legal in russia the end result isn't always. these first photos of and on made him and often seen he was ill his genetic parents refused even to hold him and the boy has a rare and incurable genetic disease but i think of it they simply threw him out like a man wanted kitten and picked a healthy one. by his healthy twin brother enjoys family life and has no one but hospital staff helping him to survive the boy's surrogate mother also disappeared soon after the delivery little and on story is just one of the shocking examples of shortcomings in the russian family code that seeks to regulate sorry to see in the

country for a group that would give us the state of modern world the idea of surfacing it sometimes distorted it can even be used to avoid the hardships of pregnancy and to preserve the beauty of a body that turned surrogacy into a business renting out a womb costs from twenty to thirty thousand dollars however often either those who pay in or the surrogate want to admit their involvement in the process the attitude to surrogacy in russia is ambiguous so many women simply don't want anyone to know their baby is carried by another one out of the many it's easier to resort to personal or not so just moral why how about one scene in public with this there really is no going back of the sides become entangled in a legal and moral not blackmail homes intended parents while surrogate mothers greatest fear is not getting paid most of them see surrogacy as the only solution to their financial misery if you have no other choice i lived at my mom's place

hello and welcome to business here on the right now hopes for a resolution of the american and european debt problems have slightly tamed investor appetite for gold the precious metal has lost almost one percent on wednesday but the prospects are still bright for the bull in standard chartered bank as for think that it will rise to five thousand dollars per ounce within ten years well i'm now joined by the bank's metal analyst. carlos thank you very much for joining us well can you tell us about this precious metal what are the drivers for the supercycle. you know what we found in our report was that the if you look at the link between the gold price in the arab league incomes in india and china there's a very powerful link between those two going back about thirty years and if you project that relationship forward assuming nothing else changes then you do get a gold price up just below five thousand dollars an ounce or twenty twenty first
7:24 am
place case i mean our base case forecast says that we probably out since two thousand one hundred over the next three years so we are still very bullish on gold but not poised bullish is that five thousand dollar number of mind suggest an import would you say the employees of asian countries is in the growing demand. yeah i mean this is surfing in india and china really are the key drivers of this price now they account for more than half of global growth amount so what's happening there is the inflation of course quite high in both countries and also they develop in g.d.p. per capita rises in that space and so the more money into the gold market and sent from a central bank perspective as well in doing trying to beat buyers of gold is a increased reference reserves and gold has to rise in proportion to that increase in risk so those are kind of bullish elements we think for gold from both india and
7:25 am
try and i. don't want to say that there is a bubble in the gold market so. yeah i think i see very very good question i mean there are some signs of perhaps a very early bubbling gold so if you look at the link between coal prices in the dollar gold price and jeremy outperformed the dollar affects. only i think is a reflection of the economy credit crunch and people kind of psychological shifting gold so we do think that kind of makes sense in a way but there is this going to be sign of a disconnect i mean having said that we think you know prices can continue to rally on a kind of year by year perspective over the next three years we think so you know perhaps we are not too far from the end but we still think we've got a long way to go in this in this bull run and house. lights to react to the rally. here we put down. just about a month or so ago brought from iraq to say and so they looked at all the gold
7:26 am
projects are coming through in the world and they found that they would actually be steady growth in supplier over the next few years so perhaps rising by about three and a half percent on the full cost per year so what's happening is monsoons for gold miners are quite i love bites of it and a lot of money being put into exploration for both projects and prices for us in america and other places so there is a lot of pressure at the moment to increase gold supply from the mining sector we think of going through that will turn the gold market around but it certainly won't be for the next couple of years so we watch out for supply but we think it won't it won't overwhelm to mourn for at least the next two or three years. old thank you very much we'll be looking forward to more of your forecast than some of their metal analysts that standard chart of bad thank you very much. thank you. now let's take a look at the markets crude it is on the wrong line it's. almost one and i
