threat of the homegrown right wing extremist has been over law within most western countries we have seen two things happening at the same time we have seen this type of ratcheting up of rhetoric anti immigration rhetoric this is happening to us and also western europe and there's also been this demise we can say of multiculturalism so there have been individuals that have more or less become quite quite self radicalized due to. that also due to the idea that there's just been an influx of immigration then compound these factors is also bad and the global economic crisis so you have the euro zone crisis and you also have how the global economic crisis impacted united states so there has been a general type of environment which has encouraged individuals to take out their frustrations and newly arrived immigrants so i think that this is something that is actually very very very very important for western policymakers to look at so i

think that in the coming years we're going to see more of this right wing extremism . the norwegian attacks have sent shock waves around the world and sparked a passionate debate on what lies behind such a brutal attack. on our website r.t. dot com we're asking what's triggered you know we can tragedy so far the majority of you think shira fanaticism is to blame fewer people forty percent and say attention stamp from multiculturalism nine percent say the reason is global terrorism which penetrates everywhere and the minority says it's down to the failure of security forces and you can also let us know what you think of this issue by logging on to our website r.t. dot com and have your say. on the way here in our team have hazard handover nato begins withdrawing combat troops from afghanistan but are

the local security forces ready to fan for themselves stay with us for a special report from the war zone. greece has seen a glimpse of hope after european leaders came up with a plan to fight its debt crisis after a long ago she e.u. governments agreed on a range of measures designed to help the debt stricken country to avoid a default reese will receive a new bailout worth an estimated one hundred nine billion euros the move will see interest rates on greek debt lowered and the period in which must pay for its loans double lease has been battling its debt crisis for the past eighteen months and has seen violent protests from a disillusioned public journalist simon young says that despite the second cash handout troubles in greece are far from over. president sarkozy has been saying in brussels you know greece is a special case it's received this special support from the europeans and other
3:09 am
countries won't receive that but of course. do we believe that i'm not sure that we do because it's inconceivable that the europeans wouldn't step in very and it's also i think inconceivable that even the resources now available to the financial stability fund the sort of nascent european monetary fund i think they wouldn't really be sufficient in the aims if it was a sort of battle between the bond markets and the italian government so those sort of without wanting to paint nightmare scenario yes i don't think we're out of the woods yet. financial woes are also rife across the atlantic where the u.s. president has held emergency talks with congressional leaders rock obama accused party members of risking a new global catastrophe after talks to avert a debt default collapsed congress must approve a plan to allow more borrowing in top of its current fourteen trillion dollars

3:11 am
now these guys don't want to pay the bill they're trying to go to. there that the that the tax cuts for the rich that bush is or is somehow but compromise means that the this in dollars will be paid for by eliminating benefits for the working class the american people the elderly people on social security didn't encourage it gets better and is receiving better veterans' benefits didn't increase the debt it was the result of bush's wars bush's tax cuts while spending for these programs. earlier this week rupert murdoch and his son james appeared before a u.k. parliamentary inquiry into the phone hacking scandal the media mogul denying direct responsibility stating that senior managers and those directly involved in reporting stories were to answer james has now been accused of trying to mislead british m.p.'s after saying he was unaware of the true extent of phone hacking by reporters prime minister david cameron led the calls for him to answer further

questions after his evidence was challenged the markets could now face a legal battle in the u.s. over claims the voice mails of nine eleven victims were also targeted you know while questions are asked over the demise of journalist sean hoare the man credited with revealing the phone hacking scandal and artie's lore and reports his death is drawing striking parallels with another whistleblower. another political scandal erupts another whistleblower diaries sure who 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 hall was found dead in his house on monday setting the bloke a spear into a frenzy of comparisons with the case of dr david kelly why isn't the sun horn story bigger reminds me of how dr david kelly was bumped off eerily similar tragedies of scene who are in david kelly this madness toward the end david kelly
3:13 am
shawn who are this what i'm thinking something's not trying to kelly was the u.n. weapons inspector who first cause 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 holds on the eighteenth of july 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 gilligan believes there are similarities between kelly and short haul being at the center of one of these storms a terrifying experience i really don't believe either david all sean hoare was murdered because. i simply don't think it would have been in anyone's interest to murder them once they'd got into the public spotlight anyone with an iota of sense
3:14 am
in government would have known that to kill them would just would just amplify the story i think it's simpler 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 mails for stories former editor andy colson who later became a media director to the current prime minister has always denied the allegations the man was destroyed professionally by news international. journalists in london is a very small place and the man was distraught he was well known but he was drinking tonight was taking drugs he was depressed the 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
3:15 am
post-mortem report and other evidence has been classified for seventy years so ten arrests six resignations two convictions and one death that the toll of the phone hacking scandal so far the death of a key whistleblower in this scandal has raised questions but so far only amongst the twitter r.t. it's being reported as a horrible and unfortunate coincidence but it's doubtful that if this had happened elsewhere say in russia or in india the british media would be so. quick to accept it as a coincidence particularly looked at in the light of the death of david kelly you'll read it l.t. . james corbat the editor of the independent news website says the public's trust has been seriously undermined by the phone hacking scandal. to find out that certain officers had been on the payroll of these organizations and providing details today to the journalists who were involved in this scandal that in itself
3:16 am
is quite a disgrace and it does raise the question of who is properly qualified to to look into this into to form a proper investigation certainly not the police itself investigating itself that would be ridiculous at this point and the idea again of a parliamentary inquiry it has to be at least seem to be completely free of ties to the prime minister's office certainly and into any other m.p.'s who may have been implicated in this scandal so it's going to be an incredible mess unfortunately for the british people to be sorting through right now and i think trust in the public institutions has been necessarily eroded by this appalling disgraceful conduct on the part of so many different people in whom the public has invested so much trust . divers have recovered the bodies of three women from a pleasure cruiser that sank two weeks ago in russia's republic of tatarstan bringing the death toll to one hundred seventeen the country's worst river disaster
3:17 am
in the year as happened on the volga when the boat with over two hundred on board went down in minutes emergency crews are now preparing to seal the bulgaria after it was towed to shallow waters the task now is to pump water from the sun how to make the record light enough to lift so the ship can be examined to determine what caused the wreckage the boat's owner is under investigation and two people how ready been charged with violating safety regulations. we follow their recovery operation of the bulgaria ship online as well as go to our website to get the latest updates videos and blog entries so follow all the details of the tragic event from the moment the cruiser went down to the latest salvage operation. and also iran's media are denying reports a man shot dad in tehran was one of the country's nuclear site. and asserts that he was a student who just happened to share the name of known physicists. and now

a new taliban activity as foreign combat troops begin their withdrawal from afghanistan nato has a new military commander in the country general john allen warns of tough times ahead for the war effort the afghan president's half brother who ran the south of the country was recently gunned down by insurgents one of how top advisors has also been assassinated anti-war activist prime backer thinks the u.s. led coalition is losing its grip on afghanistan. they can't win by staying in fact their presence is becoming the main catalyst for the armed insurgency not only the taliban but maybe one hundred forty armed groups and they can't leave either because if they leave there will be a perception that the u.s. and nato were defeated by an armed insurgency but this dilemma must be solved some way so ultimately the united states cannot prevail the assassination of karzai as brother and his inner circle shows that the edifice of the karzai regime necessary at least to give afghan face to the nato occupation that itself is now crumbling
3:21 am
and attacks these assassination attempts are designed to create panic and i think in all likelihood they are creating panic within the very heart the foundation of the karzai government the u.s. is losing grown steadily it's spending one hundred twenty billion dollars a year that's an increasing amount from the treasury that's already drained based on huge budget deficits here the number of casualties on the afghan and american side is is increasing not decreasing and yet they're no closer to victory in fact they're losing control of the country and the government that they sponsor is is in fact in danger of i would say the u.s. hasn't gained anything i think the u.s. is losing ground it's part of what david petraeus and the obama administration say this is a bad situation possibly a catastrophe for the united states. analysts also say the violence in afghanistan is being precipitated by local security forces which contain drug addicts and those connected to the taliban despite this nato has begun handing control over parts of
3:22 am
the country to the locals but there is concern afghans are too divided untrained and ill equipped to fend off the insurgency by themselves chasing reports from kabul. there's confusion on the faces of the afghan army soldiers as a firefight unfolds on the other side of the wall lucky for them this is the kabul military training center in the bullets being fired blanks the men here halfway through a ten week program and the officers don't cut the many slack when it's over the be deployed eastern coon or province one of afghanistan's most violent corners and more but we must push them hard so they can perform under pressure day by day we're making progress the afghan national army has already come a long way its ranks have swollen to about one hundred seventy thousand troops thanks to fresh waves of recruits attracted by higher wages and extra perks the soldiers insist they are all united in their desire to be back to tell a bundle of insurgency regardless of age or ethnicity then yeah what we are old

brother x. and we are all calling by one name was like the call of duty is also struck a chord beyond able bodied males a first ever class of woman soldiers has just graduated. and there's even a mujahedeen unit made up of four of them veterans of the anti soviet you're hot this is all good news to u.s. military planners who have set a two thousand and fourteen going to hand over security responsibilities to the afghans the afghan army enjoys a much better reputation in the police force and has even been featured in the recent movie. but as the army takes greater responsibility for security around the country there are concerns that the quantity of troops may be coming at the expense of quality and rush started as more than eighty percent of troops are literally a big problem in the ability to relapse and numbers can spell the difference between life and death adding to the woes are widespread drug use and desertion it's today roughly one in four combat soldiers quit their post critics also point out that the military leadership is made up of many rival x.

really just persecution officials in serbia hope his arrest will clear the way to e.u. membership while the government is ready for accession talks many serbs remain skeptical about their future in the e.u. balkans expert marco gossage thinks that membership talks are premature. serbia will get in return what it usually gets it has nothing whatsoever. has got many many more hoops to jump over before it can get anywhere close to membership but i think what the serbian leadership really wants is to have the appearance of traveling hopefully regardless of whether they ever arrive in the e.u. or not because it's that travelling hopefully which allows them to. some people say abandon many national interests with the excuse that in fact the e.u. needs the ones that it's not your leaders really where just a obeying orders i think that is the argument of the current regime in belgrade and
