3:05 pm
a worrying tendency how do you know. it's a classic situation when separate nato countries are waging war and meddling in an internal conflict of a country from nature's zone of responsibility but the airline is an organization claims not to be involved classic military propaganda but you can download all of what the russian envoy to nato had to say on the situation in libya i hadn't so artie's free video. mission free critique free. of charge of free. agent three. three. two three three. video for your media project a free media gun tard dot com. a london based human rights group claims around five hundred people have been killed in syria during ramadan
3:06 pm
the majority of them civilly as well another group of activists released a report suggesting that dozens of people including children have been tortured to death behind bars for taking part in the anti regime uprising as archy's if you have a new school reports all those coming from syria can't always be taken at face value . well the report really does not say much you have to you have to make a note of the fact that the report said eighty eight people all ten of them children are believed to have died in detention their porches also slammed to the syrian authorities for not providing enough information on the those into demons there were no details however outlined of the circumstances in which these eighty eight people supposedly have died this is somewhat of a showcase of what else has been happening in the way things have been portrayed as happening in syria give constantly ports from various media sources western channels or major arabic networks which show demonstrations of people sometimes a little science being held up by someone knowing person who is filming everything
3:07 pm
that's going on immobile camera phone that looks like to be immobile camera phone most of the sources which anybody sides are anonymous there are reports coming from various other cities in the center of syria of syria for example or homes where reports of tanks entering cities are being broadcast there and coming through apparently in hama more uprisings have been happening as of late but in here in damascus things they really believe could not be more peaceful when there were reports supposedly of helicopters flying overhead and one major network we actually went outside walked all around the city didn't see anything but birds up in the sky so this is a situation that isn't damascus right now there have been no demonstrations at least in the center we are based right in the center of the syrian capital they have been no demonstrations no explosions no violence people are just continuing in fact you know this is the end of the holy month of ramadan so people have been
3:08 pm
celebrating as a matter of fact going out to dinners and shopping and this is what has been going on we are we are another good instance of media news mongering or warmongering if you will is a case when in the middle of a smog there were reports of thousands of palestinians being herded into a stadium. in a city of latakia their i.d.'s were allegedly taken away and their cell phones were taken away as well they were held there for several days and then and then apparently were released well when we actually went there a few g. camp and spoke to the palestinians themselves but he said that yes there were disturbances in the city yes there were unknown people starting the skirmishes with the army in their court in their muslim quarter of town where the camp is space so the palestinians actually asked for refuge they were provided they were provided an option to go to a stadium so about two thousand out of seven thousand have went to the stadium they say there for three days they said that the authorities have provided them with
3:09 pm
food and shelter and water and then they returned to their homes james corvettes and a soccer based editor of the independent news website corporate report dot com believes that the latest report of prison casualties is one sided but says that this is to be expected in an era of media manipulation. of course the end of the international report itself is based on eyewitness reports not on the facts not on the ground reporting. it's based on the ideas of people who are being implicated in this i mean the people who are part of the supposed opposition to this government so so it's a it's a little bit like creating a report asking whether the banks were to blame for the two thousand and eight financial meltdown and only talking to people from goldman sachs i mean we know which way that that type of report is going to go there's even been the implication that some of the the images were being shown have been digitally manipulable manipulated and there have been reports about that i'll have a little online that you can watch of of the footage that was taken in bahrain and said to be taken in hama and it's showing the same footage and on different
3:10 pm
stations with different backgrounds digitally brought in so there are some very strange things that are going on right now and unfortunately we live in an age where media manipulation is so easy that it starts to become more and more difficult to tell the reality from fiction. and iraq and r.t. and still to come this hour premature preparations. and wanted nobody's. israel trains at arms at seven hours ahead of september's vote on the recognition of a palestinian state as they get ready for a possible law pricing experts say i've just been calling for it. and of course a lot of search and moscow offers a bid to want covered documents to prove that he or the drive to sidestep its parkers in its quest to root rough as you put it out. of the euro zone is not so different for being in a straight jacket that's according to the president of the czech republic lots of
3:11 pm
klaus speaking at an economic summit in austria the president also blamed the euro for being responsible for the debt crisis that's currently ravaging the european union his comments echo grow his delivery towards a single currency among nations who was queuing to join the prestigious club. that's as a prime minister also questioned his country's requirement to sign up with a currency block saying they were told it was a monetary union not a debt but the e.u. leadership maintains the crisis is temporary and that the euro is safe and secure something that you have bought over the belt yet iteration trans magazine disagrees with. the president is probably more right than the european politicians because in effect we at the moment have a monetary union here in europe that has really very important structural handicaps and. handicaps we have and i would situation that has become a full blown crisis that is threatening. the further existence of this euro zone
3:12 pm
everything is done at the moment to indeed arrive at such a situation where it would be rather shameful to accept the exit off the country the first possibility of course being greece but that should not lead as a strain terms of what is the real full. focus of the discussion and that is the problem don't have the conditions to have a structurally healthy monetary union and unless we do something about that we will have one crisis country after another there is so much political capital invested in this project that it's very hard if not to say impossible for the politicians who are at the moment running this european council to give give up on the idea of a monetary union so it's a question of politics if you look at it from the economic point of view we have
3:13 pm
indeed a situation that is a lot more doubtful than the politicians like to admit the end of the euro if we go down that road it's still not sure but the chances are increasing day by day in my analysis it will be germany that. will put out the right. now in september palestine will be expecting a u.n. vote to recognize it as a fully fledged state but israel fears the decision may result in uprisings and has reportedly started arming sutlers and training them to face angry palestinians but artie's policy or reports by preparing for bloodshed israelis might actually be calling for it. the united nations might be meeting next month to declare a palestinian state but for more than half a million is really sick as they couldn't care less there has been so many the surgeons they cleared in the un that have absolutely no meaning and are baseless un only wanted nobody's gore harm the palestinian state they'll be the ones now going
3:14 pm
home and like it or not niger and other israeli settlers who seem to find themselves citizens of palestine once the un recognizes palestine within these borders now there's no argument this is occupation international law apply for months now the israeli army has been fine tuning its response to the un vote. and what a lot of equipment in order to have them and. also training a lot of members around for a million dollars in the separation the army is also training settlers in self-defense the working assumption of his ready defense establishment is there comes a ten but they will be confrontations between israelis and palestinians they fear that they will be marchers protests and in some cases even violence but it's an assumption and many would say overreaction that threatens to inflame the situation
3:15 pm
on the ground israel has been doing everything it cared to do this whole idea of abode and it's not only the palestinians it's shortchanging this. is through spreading also on their own population is not justified because at the end of the what the palestinians are doing with a political step and trying to achieve wanted for nothing through politics and they think this is far better. than to try to achieve newton with and through prayer or a war and the irony is that the army might just be focusing its resources. wrong elation you think that we are going to leave out the country the biggest danger though is that as these radio defense forces prepare for a conflict people on both sides of the border begin to expect one policy r t. o two out of the three suicide bombers who carried out attacks in the capital of
3:16 pm
russia's north caucasus republic of chechnya have been identified one is a brother of another suicide bomber who blew himself up in front of a concert hall in grozny last year now nine people have been confirmed dead and twenty wounded after three successive blasts went off at the same place in the city the first suicide bomber blew himself up one police attempted to stop him for and i do check that the second or third attacks occurred soon after targeting the investigators and wordlessly workers who arrived at the scene most of the casualties were policemen. russian beliefs bailiffs acting on an arbitration court order served the offices of b. today looking for incriminating documents it's part of an ongoing lawsuit filed by partners seeking the three billion dollars in damages following the collapse of a deal with russian energy giant rosneft or course on it at all because his fall of the developments british petroleum executives have leaned over themselves of this

a multi-billion dollar deal with the world's biggest oil company. but will comes just months after the collapse of the tie up with b.p. american firm will become me partner in exploring the potentially huge reserves of russia's arctic shelf in turn russia's state run oil group will take part in exploration projects in the u.s. including in the deep water of the gulf of mexico and in texas the initial investment respects to be about three point two billion dollars but the partnership could plow as much as i have one hundred billion dollars into the project cross never will hold two thirds of the joint venture and exxon mobil one third. but i think there's a lot of potential to this deal but there are a lot of obstacles before it comes to realisation i mean for the obstacles obviously are environmental concerns especially in the arctic shelf political concerns as well about doing business in russia and also technical considerations because trying to drill for oil in the arctic in the freezing cold weather and also
