all right but critics say this will lead to a sense censorship obviated that barry brown has worked with anonymous on various operations before us as the latest hacker attacks are just the beginning. the problem is that the track record of the us and all governments. is such that giving them power to do one thing is almost always interpreted by themselves as a means of giving them power for many other things so and the way that you know this that this raid on megaupload ties in this opens it shows that even without sopa already in place here they are already arresting and resting the owners of megaupload and shutting it down so i imagine when some post. in the meantime a group project. issued operation donkey punch which is sort of the latest efforts by which to ensure that sopa is the and that those who support sopa are rather than intimidated and otherwise to make sure that these things don't happen again and in the future of the very near future as you'll see there will be

a number of other groups that will pop up using more more military methods and situation gets worse and things will escalate until such point as the notable civil war in the us the kurds. european matters to us so we're asking our to dot com what you think the anonymous attack will lead to let's take a look at the site vote now. so so far the majority of those who voted believe the u.s. government will crack down on the happed of this twenty eight percent saying this won't stop the bills be coming along but will just bring weeks of web chaos nineteen percent reckon the u.s. congress will now vanderbilt coming into force after the attack others believe the hacking group anonymous is just a bunch of kids unable to bring any change to argue dot com and cast your vote. and coming up later this hour our t's crossed peter lavelle asks his guest whether the new legislation may completely change the face of the internet. the fact is

that what we're trying to do is enforce u.s. copyright laws on foreign companies whose copyright laws may be different from ours and what we're saying is if you don't follow us law in terms of copyrights then we have the right to shut you down the other part of the problem is affectively that's going through the division of it isn't that. you're objecting to the fact that people are trying to stop sites that are pirating american american intellectual property and it's not always just movies and music it's also physical goods that are kyra you know these are counterfeit drugs you know there are also maybe a little written material that can be and i you know harmon first harm children the harm adults there's a serious there are serious consequences where it's one thing and there's one sure the child is going to object to these sides but the the problem here the problem here is in terms of how you go about remedying the problem if there is a problem that should be remedied particularly if you're talking about

a remedy that imposes very significant costs on the rest of us why it is that the rest of us should suffer all of these very serious consequences in terms of the interruption to the structure of the internet in terms of the censorship of sites. and members of the arab league are gathering this weekend to hear a final report on the expired observer mission to syria it's widely expected to condemn president bush on the loss of who has continued his crackdown on protesters despite promises to stop as it sees marie ivanovna now reports there's little doubt that the findings will be used to bolster calls for a military intervention. people taken to the streets may look like a real force of power and indeed be one but in syria true test

has apparently failed to prove that months of bloodshed with no sign is going to stop anytime soon. how it hard jeff from the syrian national council the country's main official opposition body says making the people's voice louder and bring in an end to the violence is what the s. and c. was created for our main goal is to help the syrian people there present them and their two national committee in order to reach this syrian people's freedom and although it's been run by paris based exile that hamdani in the absence he has been recognized as the country's legitimate government by the new libyan authorities and supported by some and nato countries which has made some doubt the council's innocent intentions with regards to libya the promise that nato made to the national transitional council perspective leaders was that they be given

a major seat at the table in a new libya so there is power broking going on behind the scenes and i absolutely wager that the same thing is happening with syria they've either been bought off financially or they've been promised a major role in a new syrian regime the national congress and there are clear is national transitional council and the syrian national council and it's not just their names they haven't come and supported and sponsored from abroad i think he likes opposition forces and their main to go is to overthrow the regime but there is a difference to the absences huts courters are not in damascus but here in istanbul we are not talking about democratic regime if i go to syria now we have. you know. we have to be executed there howlett says he spent fifteen years in jail in the one nine hundred seventy s. and eighty's just because his father supported the opposition he claims nothing has

changed since then and the oppression has to stop but how is another matter is addicted terrorism cannot be mo of without any pressure claiming they're only going to rely on political and diplomatic pressure the asson see to is now carburetor in with the free syrian army fighters who have defected from assad's military in was a clear shift from the essences initial entirely known armed peaceful stance. the cows who also sees humanitarian corridors and buffer zones as options to protect civilians in syria even though these might mean foreign troops arriving this isn't a top is that all tatars operation were to syria that gas was being used to at us and that jeddah they made to work at that because they don't want they want to destabilize syria because they want syria to be part of nato at least league to

label the opposition claims is just a matter of time before the joint africa sooner or later will force president assad out while his italians to stay but the question remains exactly how long should these people have to wait for the bloodshed to stop and how many of them will actually see the end of it here if nationality. also i have for you this hour here in our team the sharp war tactics finding a use at home. to us by drones that have been used in washington small to build military operations abroad are now keeping a close eye on american citizens too. and israel jumps the gun benjamin netanyahu calls on europe to bargo fast without waiting for a weak economies find a new supplier. the battle over scotland sovereignty is heating up in the u.k. with the scots being told they may hold an independence referendum only if london gives its blessing it comes as a fearful british government ramps up ridicule have

a rhetoric against independence bit but as artie's laura smith reports london's grandstanding is ruffling more than just feathers among the scots. britain a three hundred year old union that once ruled the waves and tossed the known world but on home soil the country is closer than ever to a messy divorce. this is the man who wants scotland to go it alone nationalist party leader alex salmond's promising scots will get a say on being single but london wants to call the shots and get it done and dusted . they don't want to talk about the substance i sometimes feel when i listen to them it's not a referendum they want it's a never end i'm question their travel debate and let's keep our country together. but why would scotland want to separate itself from

a britain that still among the world's richest economies scotland always retained its own distinct national identity and the s.n.p. feels it's almost time to take that one step further and hope for a yes vote from the scottish people would mean scotland would gain control over its own north sea oil and gas and represent itself on the international stage but it doesn't want to hold a referendum until two thousand and fourteen and that delay is letting london ramp up the scare stories telling scotland it'll have to pay the price such as the billions of pounds british taxpayers spent keeping scottish banks alive that it would have to find its own currency and lose thousands of jobs when the navy head south not that it seems to pull the scots who see their country as having been strangled for long enough i don't think it's any of his business if we present a strong enough case to be independent then i can see that he can argue against.

his shock to i think a shutter i don't think you should have any say in the fires of. scots have never taken kind. hearing's stern words from the mother of all parliaments down in london but for the nationalists it's a boost to the lackluster thirty percent support for a split mr cameron feels he had to do to but it's completely but. he's actually been the best recruiting sergeant i think is of a. moderate but. in the last days with. so you know up to now the u.k. and scotland's key players will continue to cross swords at stake but alex salmond is a reputation built on restoring a proud scotland for prime minister cameron is the potential to become the man who let the united kingdom come apart. at him.

while u.k. may be mired in domestic affairs later in the program we'll report on an international blow over the country as a former senior official admits to us now. the embarrassment of these revelations is not so much the spying itself but the fact they were cool doing. assuming stone for the modern day james bond is moscow's rock solid evidence or says a key figure to finally come calling. america's conover for the use of its drones in asia may have caused overwhelming anger but now it's threatening to do the same at home washington's kings spying weapon and overseas operations is becoming a common tool for us police stirring up privacy concerns among more and more americans are these more important i looked into the issue. they are the cornerstone of america's military arsenal dropping bombs on bosnia pakistan afghanistan libya and yemen

a manned aerial vehicles known as drones have become the trademark of washington's war missions targeted assassinations and spying operations overseas but today the local police departments using unmanned spy plane said to catch suspects the remotely piloted war weapon is flying domestic u.s. local police and federal officials are increasingly using drones under the auspices of keeping citizens see police departments are using them in the united states or even i think almost two hundred sixty six applications that have been approved for police departments to use drones as aerial surveillance devices drones can be armed with a wide range of surveillance technology including high powered zoom lenses and infrared ultraviolet imaging. as the u.s. government flies prying eyes through the sky lawmakers have neglected to create any privacy protections for american citizens the agencies keep using more and more

of these to justify their existence so they can say we need this to crack down on drugs we need this because there are a lot of robberies in this neighborhood we need this the united states is not only now a military industrial complex it's a homeland security complex they've merged into one in two thousand and six aero vironment a drone manufacturer received four point seven million dollars from the u.s. defense department to develop new unmanned aerial vehicles. the newest and smallest invention is hummingbird a palm sized q. looking spyplane weighing less than one pound there can be a very lucrative. in the united states for police departments who are already militarized tanks to assault vehicle to assault rifles. the modern police

look like the military and so now they're going to be using military first lawsuit has been slapped against the u.s. department of transportation for allegedly withholding records pertaining to the domestic use of drones currently the american public cannot find out why drones are being used or who is controlling every corner there's a closed circuit camera watching what you're telling so now we don't only have a law on the ground we have from the air this month the federal aviation administration is expected to propose new rules making it easier for law enforcement agencies to fly drones to america's democratic stop world weapons used overseas to keep the u.s. safe now being considered a serious threat to u.s. freedom at home marina artsy new york. now don't hesitate to log on to our web site for the latest videos comments and analysis it's r t dot com and here's some

united states in the halls of power in congress and on wall street that you have a secret service has been literally your rock by the admission of one of the country's former top officials who confirmed that britain have been spying on russia has come six years after moscow first presented its allegations after catching agents red handed over bad it has more. it's not exactly the most glamorous of james bond gadgets but hidden in this fake stone was a high tech transmitted british spooks used to spy on russia the allegations from moscow have always been dismissed but six years on there is rock solid evidence the u.k. can no longer deny tony blair's former chief of staff come clean admitting british spies were caught red handed the spy rock was embarrassing they had us bang to rights clearly they had known about it for some time and had been saving it up for a political purpose. the embarrassing revelations confirmed the findings of

a russian television report in two thousand and six it showed this video of a man slowing down and looking at the rock as he passed apparently an agent beaming top secret intelligence from a mobile computer to a digital drop point concealed in the stone another man was filmed picking up the rock and collecting the data. the moment was the one behind the exposé and left no stone unturned but. at first i had to delts i thought it might be a fake story or a political game but we cross checked everything with multiple sources and it turned out to be true some footage we didn't include in the film was particularly convincing for example there was a video of a british spy unit in front of the camera that camera was hidden under a tree in the songs lying nearby the guy wanted to look natural so we pretended that he needed to take a leak n.e.p. right in front of the camera before picking up the stone and leaving. but it was

his word against theirs britain fiercely denied the allegations with tony blair laughing them off as russian propaganda the truth was buried inside the u.k. secret service headquarters supposedly never to be seen again so after six years of dodging the bullet wide net it now they're very embarrassing but i think that the british government has decided. to have bygones are bygones and say ok we made a mistake. and we want better relations from now on so i would see this as a first step on the road to improve relations with russia this is the home of britain's spooks m i six the government is a broad their job may not be secret but how they do it is or at least should be so the embarrassment of these revelations is not so much the spying itself but the fact they were caught doing it
