that's sort of that spirit with revolution with the moments to the more you add to the mud was said to herself a light breeze dampened they should protest movement that gave birth to the arab spring but many believe that missile has changed and the country. converts times authorities are part of the curfew in an oil town in the west of the country where independence day rides left at least eleven people dead in the central asian state. trial an obscenity i mean you can it really is that the drive provided material support to al qaida the nine eleven attacks in america critics however say the verdict is merely a pretext for war against iraq. news

for russia and around the world this is all he was need thanks for joining us turns out thousands of people in tunisia have been celebrating the past anniversary of the country's revolution which overthrew dictator ben ali after almost twenty five years in power the uprising was this part for the arab spring which rocked almost twenty countries across north africa and the middle east but even after elections in tunisia it calls for change remain strong that. has been finding out. a year ago mohamed bouazizi said softly tired to protest against the authorities in tunisia unleashing public frie over corruption and poverty which led to the president ben ali a wave overinvolved spread to other countries and the arab spring was born. a monument stands. his sacrifice in his hometown of city there's

a widespread belief however that the changes in tunisia and there. are vast very few things to upgrade the school to lead families with disabled children and some jobs but no one wants to listen to the people haven't gotten anything those who came to broaden reaped all the benefits they're all in the new government but the simple folk are left with nothing but. the tunisian revolution was led by young people demanding freedom of speech and greater percentage but the voice of news according to some has been silenced. like the new government is comprised of the elderly that shows what kind of new tunisia we're talking about the main problem is the political parties which have been given a chance to the young people who gave their lives and blood for the revolution the western media has hailed the tunisian revolution as the beginning of a new democratic chapter in the history of the country northern africa region a year has passed and people who live here is three very few of the changes they

have asked for have actually taken place. everything is still as it used to be the actions have come and gone and the town hasn't changed unemployment is still the same it's not the only things that changed you can now express our opinion but the russians main goals haven't been accomplished. the fervor which sparked a revolution maybe only a slow burn for no one but if the grievances which inspired it for mean so with the people's inspiration all together it goes carty city was it tunisia. egypt which followed twenty zero on the road to revolution is bracing itself to get more violence at least nine people died and over three hundred fifty have been injured since friday after the army moved in to disperse demonstrators at around to military apparatus camp on cairo's tahrir square. a reporter for the jerusalem post says the army is frightened at the prospect of egypt being run by. they're

a symptom of a wider power struggle that's taking place between the military and the misled parliament the new parliament that's been elected that's being elected in phases i think that the military is very frightened of the prospect of an egypt that would be led by islamist political parties they're worried about security they're worried about the economy what this could do to tourism and the reluctant they've gotten used to being in power for many many years since the fifty's i think they're very reluctant to let go of that power i don't think that there actually has been a revolution yet i think that what's happened is that the figurehead of the military regime has been deposed very dramatically certainly that's a hugely significant event it's an earthquake but i thought i would define a revolution as the ousting of the elites from power and i think that the elites in egypt which which are the military i think they're still in power and once the military is gone from power fully gone from power then i think we can describe what we're seeing in egypt as

a revolution until then when i think these two sides are stuck in their current position fighting it out through a range of ways and one of these ways is street battles between the military security forces and the people so i think it's going to be unpredictable violent in some cases and it's also going to damage egypt's ability to maintain law and order on its streets. so if people have been killed across syria as there are hardly demands damascus international observers tokenize ation is threatening to turn to the un security council for action of the requesters refused it comes as russia has put forward a new drone for a solution to the u.n. security council on syria moscow's demanding bothers the assad regime and the opposition and the violence and begin domino rooting out foreign intervention and sanctions but the u.s. and its allies on the russian motion amended seeks to put the blame for the bloodshed on the damascus authorities alone and that's despite thousands of all the defectors claiming to be fighting to bring down their side regime.

of the government program soldiers bravery or betrayal find the latest on the last on the private accused of causing military secrets to the whistle blowing web site to. its supporters same him as a hero nor a traitor. the russian built a rocket successfully little interest from the european spaceport in french radio and a look at what this journey to the stars and means of the. because our president and his have done as a buyer has announced a cafe here in a town in the west of the central asian country where riots on friday left at least eleven people dead he also said this is haitians now under control the rest was initiated by a group of striking oil workers during state celebrations marking twenty years of independence. as a local journalist told r.t. what happened oh work isn't generalising have been striking for fairly long already

for several months it is true. but the reemerged in full force yesterday the senate was deliberating its twentieth anniversary so there was a big date and instead of a concert and a celebration there was a riot and people killed the people who were on the video those people they're all dressed in clothes and their guns uniforms this is fairly strange for a strike but you're uniformed you know and they were moving into organized packs but it looks like that's all workers are there anyway whether they're demanding wages or they're being led by somebody or they're taking part. but. since they were just crushing things around. there were behaving too organized and they were talking authorities and. the police came in so it looked like. these are just hooligans who started and led the crowd and the crowd was sort of

for hued up it looks like chris this is being led from the outside this could be external forces like the country's intelligence or this could be sort of local forces who are interested in or throw in to go in and changing the regime this is george and there is said to be very calm and stable nobody that this square nobody is writing more about the internet connection and or years and years and everything each is it falls under curfew restriction that has been implemented. i knew your quote has votes that iran provided material support to al qaida for the nine eleven attacks by the hearing was held by the forty because the defendants including iran's supreme leader did know supreme court professor paul childhood from california state university says this is part of the campaign to demonize iran and begin plans to attack the country. this is what we call a kangaroo court in america this is totally outrageous that civilized by the

american government if we want to look for blame we can start was saudi arabia where most of the hijackers came from having lived and worked in arab countries i can tell you there is no way that the arab government did not know what was going on in saudi arabia we could look to germany where many of them lived we could look at american flight schools we could look at f.b.i. agents reported disappear ears and secures did nothing by iran has no involved but in this whatsoever no they neoconservative warmongers are trying to demonize iran even more and build up to a war and unfortunately the average american voter knows so little we know congresswoman michele bachmann a couple weeks ago was able to say that she would close the american embassy and bring home leave it ambassador and staff and that wasn't subjected to great ridicule every american i've talked to so far doesn't know anything wrong with that statement right after nine eleven i was shocked that the iranian leadership said they would permit american military to use their airspace to attack afghanistan

that they would help any downed pilots they would they would help supply anything else they bent over backwards to help america beyond belief in an iranian journalist had been murdered by the taliban there was no love lost between the taliban and the iranians. a u.s. military court has opened pretrial hearings in the case of alleged whistleblower bradley manning by rejecting a difference request that the presiding officer should step down they claim he's out there he's out of rule investigating the fonda we can makes makes him biased private manning has served as an intelligence analyst in baghdad is accused of leaking classified military and diplomatic data to the whistle blowing web site he's a writer been held in detention for nineteen months and could face life in prison even execution of convicted of the coalition bradley manning is a hero exposed to crimes atrocities in iraq. i think the bradley

manning if it's true that he was the one who released the documents to wiki leaks will be considered in u.s. history as a hero because he took a stand in a willing to pay a very difficult price possibly life in prison possibly the death sentence for exposing a criminal war the iraq war is a crime against humanity it's a war crime in fact bradley manning had an obligation to reveal that this country was carrying criminal activities of course we all knew that and one sense but by releasing these hundreds of thousands of classified documents if in fact it was he who did it he did a great deal to expose to shine a bright light on those who are committing crimes against the iraqi people and in fact against the american people bradley manning has been held wrongly he's been held in solitary confinement he's been pre-judged by the military and by the media he has been stripped naked in forest in solitary confinement that's a kind of torture and he's being treated as the worst possible lowest criminal in

fact somebody who's not even part of the judicial system since he's been pre-judged in. russia's own national interest will guide its actions on the global arena president into that it spells out the country's priorities in view of the recent rift with the u.s. when its missile defense shield in europe which most says poses a threat to its security when washington failed to get written assurances that this show is not aimed at russia also who deployed a rating system on its western most border. we must not let ourselves be intimidated or confused we must clearly understand the goals we are heading for politics is a concrete shame whatever friendly relations we have if we are not being heard we will answer that's what i had to do it wasn't against obama but against the policy that the us has adopted if they continue to be rude we will respond if they hear our concerns we will work together. under in the wake of protests against this

month's election results which have been held across russia the president said he saw and heard the people's concerns but he said political changes in the country should be a standard from within and never be a result of outside pressure one rally wrapped up in moscow saturday with a turnout of some one and a half thousand supporters of the yabloko party which didn't make it past the seventy percent threshold needed to win seats in the state duma moscow's no square where they gathered become the focal point for projects last week when tens of thousands converged to voice their dissatisfaction with the poll results on our web site home you find for analysis of all the post-election about's exclusive interviews photo galleries and much more. and he's learned a crowd has come to the aid of a russian fishing vessel that's been stranded in the atlantic ice for two days they fly still have it fuel and i think we're going to have the crew offset to pump out water which has been leaking into the the ship called spotter has been hold out why

and how meters below the water line and crew members had to ditch cargo to reduce the ship's weight weskits say they succeeded the vessel could be repaired allowing the troll out to sail out of trouble. russian build so use rocket has successfully blasted off from the european spaceport in french guiana it was carrying french and chilean spy satellites into orbit french observation stations will be gathering military intelligence and providing three d. images of time. while they truly an eye in the sky will mainly be used for mopping farmland it's only the second time a russian rocket has launched from outside the former soviet union following a similar successful mission last month also from french guiana after america's space shuttle program was shut down so use remains the only means of taking people and satellites into space. at least fifty occupy wall street protesters have been arrested after they were into a private park in manhattan as the movement month anniversary the demonstrators

were evicted from their headquarters last month to set up a new camp in the city's dosser park accidents and ripped holes in the fence around the private grounds and used ledges to climb inside police just past protesters claiming that the occupies would not permission to enter the park. and. a bill being debated by the u.s. congress to stop online piracy could mean that start a web censorship in america according to critics of the proposal into the shorts so the move also could cripple copyright protection in our age. the government doesn't just take down the infringing material it takes on the site entirely and it does it without even a trial to find out whether it's illegal or not and as you know copyright laws are extremely complicated there are lots of things that look like copyright infringement that turn out to be licensed in one way or another part of this is a larger crackdown on freedom of speech there's pretty much no other law that would

give the government the power to censor the internet that wouldn't be laughed out of congress you know if you said the government needed to censor the internet to protect national security it would be widely seen in america is totally unacceptable and beyond the pale but by using copyright as a wedge issue suddenly we're able to put this power in the hands of the government and then once they have it it can be expanded and expanded to deal with a whole range of other things one of the interesting provisions in this law is that it doesn't just shut down websites it also increases the penalties for people caught in gauging and copyright infringement so for example if you make a video on you tube of yourself singing and copyrighted song this bill would increase the penalty to that to ten years in jail so there's all sorts of people who do these things that would just be considered part of natural life as a teenager that now are facing huge felony charges as a result of this law so freedom of speech often means that in much of the mainstream media they can also be a freedom in terms of accuracy or defiance and if. you ask people that they

have time out of a subject. are you sick of the media being biased this week let's talk about that do you feel like the media's biased sure they are the discredit pick the right one that you want to listen to is the right one around one no. you're going to listen to them all and make up your own wife when do you k.'s very politically is pol pot is it government is in power i can't. see things on the media i absolutely do think it's important for the noose a try to be unbiased but unfortunately everybody brings their own slant to their reporting i don't think it's avoidable even though it's desirable obvious puzzle for anybody to be unbiased so why would we expect a news organization to be unbiased because they're professionals usually journalists with a job but they're still human. well the

a lot of stuff you either read or the news is untrue and a lot of a lot of it isn't that a shame that the news would be untrue. it is but the thing is it sells papers and it sells news and people watch it people watch the channels that bother you. just the way they were. believe what you want to believe do you think it would help people be more informed if news organizations admitted their bias. i think sober people wouldn't believe them and then they'd turn to whoever was bias anyway there's a lot of people that think the some channels are fair and balanced other channels aren't leaning in any direction well i mean i think we all know that's not true right we all this into the news every single day and we all hear the ridiculousness on both sides yeah but i think fox particularly will report both sides in both views and they have people of opposing views on very frequently so you don't think they're biased that i think they themselves there might be slant but i think it's

a moniker that people have put on them. they're still good servitor fact they are they are but that's ok they should just admit it all they do i think and i think some know what they're fair and balanced they say orders and each person these experts they come in every individual has his own personal bias you can't get away from that maybe instead of demanding our media be less biased we just start demanding they admit their bias and maybe bad at least be accountable for the opinions they report. and more news for you this hour massive floods triggered by an unexpected tropical storm sold over four hundred people in the southern philippines with about a hundred missing men of residents were asleep when the plug hole to tour through towns overnight after hours of threshold rain thousands have sought refuge in evacuation centers across stuff. province's. ship carrying more than three hundred

the country groups of militants operating in this part of the caucasus are reported to have strong links with al qaida look to exalt people in when they're young and to tell rays are constantly carried out in a time to eradicate the problem although militants usually target police and government officials tourism has often go into the lives of many innocent families across the region because of that a number of organisations have sprung up fighting for victims' rights and helping is also fucked it's peace their lives back together i had it turns to spend a day with speed. after losing her son three years ago has dedicated her life battling for her people's future. it's a called mr winter morning in the speed line a sign of as always is first in the office the telephone starts to ring right as she enters the room it is the usual start of the day for the mothers of dagestan a human rights organization created four years ago and now known across the region

but where she still doesn't know these accusations are common in this region young and immature people often become the victims of terrorist brainwashing high unemployment also boast this quite often people that fall under the influence of those with no financial or social prospects and see going into the forest use them as and for joining terrorist as the only way out for them that's what happened with mariam and it cost her her life she had a difficult childhood was raised without a father and her mother couldn't provide for the family her mother honeymoon remembers how when her daughter started working at the market she met very religious people that. at first i thought there was nothing bad in that but then my little girl started to change she talked a lot about being a real new slang were going to paradise i tried to talk her out of it but she never listened sean listened to her new friends. her new friends turned out to be

of the community believe a large proportion of those who went to the fore is a simply bandits from an dissatisfied younger generation. if anyone told me thirty years ago that life in dagestan would be like what we see now i would never believe it. locals want the rule of law enforced and respected again every turn to a time before terror played such a dominant part in the lives of so many minds in the question r.c. close up in the republic of dagestan. and a very shortly. stays on her to discuss the true cost of keeping the banks afloat in their latest claims record that's our current crop of today's top stories in just a few moments here and i'll see live. wealthy
