the move a joy to be able to raise the villas the tree for which the grand imperial truly that george was to school until you can a little closer which will see don't have to go and. read this the colonel was rich as used to retreat. it's extremely few good there is very different difference between what really is going to stick with the former egyptian leader heads that it's accord with activists say those who are placed him in power are committing the same crimes but under the guise of revolution. fear is that israel's flossing a new assault so why the hezbollah in lebanon five years all after the last deadly exchange and with the hope of quelling social protests at home. and the beautiful game becomes an el ninio knol theme to the ground in ukraine with all floridians anxious that lucas could ruin the hosting of next year's the way for

calm. everyone well can see this is our see life from moscow egypt's former leader hosni mubarak is back in court as his trial resumes good those who were on telly a square back in february say this seems a little off the current military rulers are committing the same crimes but excusing it with revolutionary rhetoric he's exam the boy who reports from cairo. to young to vote yet old enough to die for his country this one was just seventeen when egyptian police killed him on the tuckers where last winter today he's more true adorns one of. there's even talk of naming streets in his name what makes someone and more fear and i know very well in the age of right now if

the date of those gone down prior to mubarak's resignation celebrated it's a true caleb allied with the brighter future of their country those killed after his ousting sometimes are pretty serious criminals who start to undermine their country's democratic strides it doesn't matter that they shared the same goals and each of these days just this is about power and no of the other way around this young man also a cult of himself among the children of the revolution if you suppose your brother he celebrated mubarak's departure from power or we're taking you to the and to the police three months later he was killed and what his brother believes was a government sanctioned shoot them in his little bubble and on the snipers shoot my brother dad went through school hit and it came out. i saw it no one here has a weapon only soldiers. like sam lisa victims whose deaths are now being pinned on

the bars these people receive no monetary compensation for their laws in fact they're increasingly worried that the new military authorities may persecute them as thugs it became an all encompassing term for those who don't appreciate the ruling military. we expected the army to intervene to protect people just minds and instead they started to kill people themselves who didn't extend. to the supreme council of the armed forces as an interim caretaker when mubarak stepped down. lots of power by the protests the generals nevertheless don't show much liking for mass gatherings the cradle of the egyptian revolution is now cordoned off by riot police those caught protesting a piece of public disturbance and stance in military trials in the last seven months there have been more people put on military trials than the number of people that were poor milty shows under president of the most is the president of war so

that's really president mubarak's regime individual of course there are thousands of cases that have been put have been arrested and put on trial and sentenced within the span of two to five days sent horrible sentences starting from three years up to twenty five years it's currently or had still haven't healed but these activists believes he got off lightly from season counts are going to police a month ago the son of the former presidential contender who was jailed by the mubarak's regime nourse as the new authorities are just brutal its version of the all it's extremely few that there is very little difference between the people who are ruling us no horse limbo and that many of the crimes the first thing we're committed to speak are currently being committed. to us now

by the people who are reading this the supreme council of armed forces. whether it is using violence or oppressing. the public or even if it's manipulating the public opinion but the and this is what hurts more as these crimes are now being committed with the disguise of the revolution it is these bloody t. shirt as a reminder that the egyptian revolution is far from over the former president is now on trial for his role in the mass killings but the body is still being spilled on the streets of cairo it's not a boycott artsy it's empty. in syria the intense government land and sea assault on the case of tunnel attack in thoughts have claimed another twenty lives it's the latest violence in the brutal crackdown on protestors that is seen over one thousand seven hundred people killed since march global pressure is mounting on the

country's president to kick start reforms and stop the bloodshed and made some promises weeks ago that as journalist clients of r.t. he outright western support for the opposition is fueling the violence. two days ago. when now mounting criticism in syria but i think the opposition have been emboldened by the support for a country such as the usa in france and i think that's what's really creating this very dangerous situation where we could be heading into civil war and really don't do too much about you who we are. seeing things in the west who are very sort of view because you know that you're position of betrays whites and white they're absolutely fantastic democrats of course i'm sure there are people whose if you are like that but when we contrast it with the situation in bahrain we didn't get a statement from the u.s. saying that the government must go with the opposition must take power we're going to let me syria is a very helpful tool and if there is a. regime for which we could be into iraq situation where we have six terrio

vinatieri we could have attacks on the christian community she is sunni and the real fear is that syria could just blow up we could have a terrible terrible civil war we've got to prevent that happening and we only way we can grow from happening is if there's an internal dialogue in syria. or later in the program we look at how the developments in syria might impact the situation in the wider middle east as sun beneath it with busy clinging to power israel might venture into a fresh conflict with neighboring lebanon that's in just a few minutes. now to strasser of the economics ratings agency is growing with a. or activities being investigated both in the u.s. and europe in a dramatic reversal of fortune the shares in standard and poor's parent costs sharply over the past week on investors keep pouring money into u.s. treasury bonds on his own mr investigates whether the credit rate is actually credible. breaking news the united states has just lost its top notch triple a

credit rating from it was the downgrade heard around the world in a strong reaction to the rating downgrade china has told us well it's that standard and poor's took the u.s. from straight aaa student to one not a low for the first time ever bad marks were handed down for the nation's debt and politicians inability to agree on rein it in a tea party downgrade a lot of it has to do with the fate of the president i think this is a tea party from the greater in chief says the u.s. and a bit more of. a stalwart response from the downgrade or that helped to ratchet up the the yeah tricks of the debt ceiling debate with the help of the other ratings agencies of course stealing the show from bickering politicians with their eyes on the debt deal they may be missing really a larger concern because there is growing evidence today that the u.s.

credit score is going to get hit now that the u.s. has gotten hit just how much does s. and p's mark actually count well not much according to some like investor jim rogers but it's not because the country isn't broke america is going down the tubes we're the largest debtor nation in the history of the world it's because of the source these low rating agencies have been wrong about nearly everything for the past ten or fifteen years don't pay any attention to them so just how does the report card stack up for the major ratings agencies themselves they are s. and p. moody's and fitch let's assess test one the mortgage crisis of two thousand and eight this is the same agencies that rated the toxic sub prime debt aaa so i mean how do we take them with any level of credibility after that well let's see if they get any from tess to the too big to fail banks and insurers during the financial crisis. gee

they gave a aaa rating to. good grades for firms that collapsed or were bailed out because of bad debt in fact the financial crisis inquiry commission said the three credit ratings agencies were key enablers of the financial meltdown and this brings us to test three ethics ratings agencies are paid by the investment firms they grade and moody's and s. and p. are publicly traded which means they may be more driven to increase profits for shareholders raising this debate right now you have the companies that are are being judged by paying the bill and i'm writing a big old version but mr buffett also pointed out the market requires it because these ratings agencies have been around forever so they're in shrine by government regulations which oh yeah they have a stake in test for objectivity frank. financial reform has restrictions on rating agencies and the rules are yet to be written and they care.

billion dollars this year lobbying washington over the regulations which brings us full circle to the downgrade of u.s. credit the u.s. was downgraded by ass in p. because of government debt girl member of the government ran up that debt in part because it bailed out the big banks in ai g. back in two thousand and eight the one saddled with all of those bad mortgage bonds which the ratings agencies graded triple a when in reality they were a d. or an hour which makes you wonder if the ratings agencies themselves deserve a downgrade lauren lyster r.t. washington d.c. . person prime minister david cameron has reiterated the zero tolerance approach to keep england's riots is a courts have been working through the night with leeches with almost eight hundred people charged with taking part of britain's worst on rest in decades of political reeses it won't be long before more disorder robson's arrests alone can't solve the

combustible material that's been building up of what could british society for a generation i don't really the surprise is not the riots happened but the report losers of you have to be addressed and simply doing the police more powers even the police have recognized. the problem and well worth no try to scramble to keep a lid on any further street violence well asking whether you think there's zero tolerance approach oh well here's how bating so far started off on you can see that just. saying their policy won't be tolerated by the population thirty one percent of you think it will be ineffective and a sign of weakness just answer also have you believe it will work but will split society while remaining eleven percent this is how i think there are a tolerant it's ok other temporary step that i had to wear pretty thing comes down
