actually followed the arab league mission in the final thirty days here in the country now there are questions raised as to the neutrality and the credibility of the mission certainly seeing the way that they operated it clued into question really just how independently they were able to operate in the country all of the sciences reports of people we're speaking to he said the i really wanted to didn't really seem to be taking in i can a very thing that was being said they obviously couldn't have had from every single person he wanted to speak in another question that's raised a valid question is whether more of these monitors were needed then what is going to be interesting moving food is whether or not this mission is now extended because again very divisive the response to what the people want that the hospital not some people think this really is essential to this mission continues and in fact just possibly that tarp i was speaking to one of the former advisors to the government and indeed the previous government here in syria we can listen to his

opinion on the situation now. the situation. taking place no weakening syria if you are syrian and you like syria. where you are. you have to put in your mind that you have to have. working with the other side. that's certainly seen an escalation of the conflict here in the country will start it off as a peaceful protest if it become increasingly armed in fact somewhere if you haven't owned insurgency in areas where now the government no longer have control again you've got all these different factions no one really knows anymore who have the voice of the people and as we've heard from a number of people we've been speaking to that really is an area of major concern. so our first boarding their parties are first is helping is stay right up to date

for the latest developments in syria via her twitter stream and her firsthand reports from across the country and also more news and analysis on our general twitter blog. the ongoing terror attack conflict between iran and the west has now officially reached the airwaves after britain revoked the license of press t.v. iran's english language news channel if a show reasons given by the media watchdog include a number of broken agreements and. press t.v.

says it's being silenced in a clear example of censorship the challenge as it's been targeted ever since it negatively covered the costs associated with the british royal wedding as well as last year's london riots which was the reason you can have a softer and believes this is only of the next logical step in isolating the islamic republic. if this had been separated from geopolitics with this would not have happened and some other kind of sanction would have been would have been made and the deal would have been struck so i think the press t.v. has been viewed through geopolitical terms so that is the breakdown of relations between britain and iran at the end of the day i think that most of the criticisms of press t.v. has been due to its coverage because you know it sees the middle east very differently for example than the mainstream media in britain this repeatedly comes up pro israeli groups repeatedly complain about it we know very well that the british government at the very highest level was discussing with the american

ambassador here how to limit press t.v.'s output in britain so now what we've got is we've got a real limiting of dialogue in the british media and i think that's a tragedy and certainly a tragedy at a time when british relations are at their lowest ebb for a long long period and staying with iran a little later in the program the making of supervillains. do you agree with president obama's the nation. iran's nuclear program on the moon. iranian threat transcends into the realm of fantasy as ordinary people bart of with media spin lose touch the world of drones cyber warfare and security. and taming the elements in the next winter olympics host city that's already because i haven't worked. for many years gripped by the worst protests seen there in over a decade for the second week crying people have been making

a stand against their government crying out over a low wages rising corruption and authoritarian tendencies hundreds of arrests and thousands of injuries were reported during clashes with police are just listen to what people are demanding. things to see in the streets as book or arrest. protesters have been peaceful for the past few days but now the demonstrations turn violent. fighting as proof going out between police and protesters just behind me you can see the protesters bringing up fences and now bit expected to clash with different leas line. they've started to through portals and other things that the police line and they're going to chime pushes fancies into the police line now. this is a volatile one hope that they could avoid today but it seems that it has broken out

after all it has a fence being thrown. you. really are in the day thousands that poured into the remaining in capital to demand the resignation of the remaining president try and assess the opposition politicians address the crowd will that mean he has come from all over the country means that this right has begun and it must not stop until we reach what we want what we need. and some people are upset because they've lost their job service because their pension was cut and others because they're being humiliated every day but there's one thing that unites us all that we all want to siskiyou to leave. but later on the mood became more militant than i was then the bank building factories old hospitals school children the country have to walk five kilometers through the snow to school the youth nowadays what choice do we have to

go out and start just you start marking people for a person so we're go to italy spain and germany to start to steal what for we want jobs. back i think what. we can see some if you look over the line now some of the missiles that have being thrown. just in stages the police are trying to move forward and clear the square with a meeting with a lot of resistance from the protests to say it. was the crowd was broken up it revealed those affected by take us. down. and the struggle of those seized. day and night protesters have been demanding big political change and remain here but is this is anything to go by the route to reform it long and hard for what tom bought. coming up in the program here in r

t we'll look into the ambitious new plan the russian space agency that once you live established permanently on the moon and also coming for you the waste paradox . is this as you can see is still perfectly edible and there's no sense it should be wasted thrown away. third of the population in a record number of people on food stamps yet nearly half of america's good food goes to waste daily when we had those who live off the. u.s. lawmakers have announced that controversial antipiracy legislature has been temporarily shelved this follows what some see as the largest ever hafter attacks on america's top governmental and entertainment industries websites mass internet blackout and protests over the potential new laws to stop online piracy act and protect ip act were designed to curb illegal downloading and protect copyright but critics say

they would lead to censorship of the internet forever tam from the iconic privacy of foundations as americans are seeing the news as a real victory in a battle for line freedom. we saw over one hundred fifteen thousand sites somehow alter their web pages or somewhat alter what their web pages a lot of them blacked out completely meaning that users couldn't even gets them including wikipedia which is the sixth largest us this huge huge mess a message to congress you know most of the american public hadn't even heard about these bills before the blackout and once these sites blacked out everybody started calling their congress men and e-mailing them we had sent out over one hundred. million e-mails just in that one day google got seven million signatures on their petition and so by the end of the day we had a huge swing in congress so it was a major victory for you know that there's

a minute. russia's space agencies announced and vicious plans to step up exploration of the moon and it has even called for the creation of a permanent base there mr as it will also boost cooperation with its partners in the u.s. and the european union argues peter all over brings us more on that. but we seeing from the russian space agency is a new chapter in the exploration of the moon now ross cosmos want to send first off two unmanned probes to the surface of our nearest celeste steel neighbor and take samples bring them back to earth so they can be studied and analyzed with the hope eventually that we can set up a permanent base on the moon now this all sounds very science fiction but it could very soon be science fact a moon base has been said that it could very well be a very good place to to launch spacecraft from could also be

a very good place to build spacecraft to cause the the gravity of the moon much less than there is on earth would get see the effect that lessened gravity or zero gravity would have on a spacecraft much more than we can ever simulate on earth now this is something that's not only exciting. also exciting those that keep an eye on space exploration and show his genius was the first explorer of the planet structure in order to understand the moon's origins which will help us understand more about the earth origins we want to know how the earth came into being and the moon will help us in establishing this because it still preserve some elements that have vanished from the earth the moon's conditions for a launch in space missions are much better than the earth's they're less energy consuming so it may well come at some point to building spacecraft there filling them with fuel made of water developed right there on the moon and sending them are from further space missions that's what i think it will be like hopefully lots of very exciting things that we can see coming up in the next few years there say

they're hoping to these unmanned probes can be the first step towards perhaps setting up a permanent home on the moon. peter all over there and if you miss something on air don't hesitate to catch up on our website r.t. dot com all the stories we're covering are always available there for you including the wonders of engineering from u.s. spy drone manufacturers. for their latest invention maybe looking but it's causing outrage among americans of a trademark of washington's overseas operations becomes a major tool for police at home plus. meet the man who will always find a use for every piece of scrap you could turn a high powered transformer from the sixty's into a fancy d.j. booth or a produce a fully functioning bike from the odds and ends found in a garage.

america's expanding waistline proves the country's love affair with food but almost as much as it's consumed is being dumped in the trash every day and that's despite statistics saying millions in the country are now struggling to put anything on the dinner plate right about now i am at the so-called dumpster divers with say a few minutes of breaking through garbage bags can deliver a banquet. the number of people on food stamps has reached an all time high more and more people are going hungry one in three americans live in or near poverty and suffering hungry in this land of plenty. in this land of plenty roughly two point seven million tons of food is reportedly raised and grown each year the same country that loves so much to consume calories. also

loves to waste that. doesn't look good geo and although is a dumpster diver instead of paying for food he romances through garbage bags on the streets of new york city. here's another truth were tons of edible food is thrown out the each night i've never found that's not the size of the pizza here this is a bigger reason reason bagel the twenty seven year old musician makes his way from the bakery to the deli there's hot food here which probably comes from a hot food bar relying on supermarket trash for his essential vitamins even without opening the bag i can see the orange. and some other green what we and those crowding around g.o.c. is that in a country where more than forty million people struggle daily to get enough food millions of meals are literally being wasted is this food as you can see is still

perfectly edible and there's no sense that it should be wasted thrown away. otherwise it would end up. on top of a landfill somewhere and as to me the thirty to fifty percent of u.s. food produced for consumption ends up at landfills each year that comes at an annual cost of one billion dollars simultaneously food prices continue to rise leaving millions more on line at soup kitchens and ultimately searching through trash eating meat to be sure the documentary die follows filmmaker jeremy seifert and his friends in the back alleys and rubbish piles of los angeles as thousands of dollars worth of edible food is salvaged it's a result of our excess we are a wealthy country and we have excess and so waste is. really necessarily a byproduct of excess and it's a bad habit of sort of the spoiled rich kid as it were amid america's

expanding climate of food waste critics say the country's overall carelessness causes ripple effects around the world it is a global market now and our overconsumption directly impacts the hungry and the poor in other countries us taking more than we need and wasting it affects the prices of food affects the availability of food so yeah i guess it was why did they make the film there was a sense of outrage the injustice of food waste something of a paradox society defined both by wasteful consumption and an ongoing struggle to make ends meet the need to cut my expenses are first thing that goes food so the question is why pay for that which you can get for free marina r.t.

new york. now let's take a look at some other stories from around the world government forces and african union troops have launched and civic dance islamic rebel hideouts on the outskirts of the country's capital for somalia's soldiers and government officials were killed in the attic fighting against the al qaeda linked militants it's the biggest offensive on these lama strongholds and several months. a series of coordinated gun and bomb attacks have killed at least seven people in northern nigeria the radical islamist sect boko haram has claimed responsibility for the deaths that targeted different locations including police stations and the regional police headquarters the group has been behind a recent campaign of violence in the country's mostly muslim north. the company which owns the costa concordia cruise ship is facing a lawsuit in the u.s. italy's consumer association once at least one hundred sixty thousand dollars for each passenger on the vessel many way of the captain of the ship for the tragedy which killed eleven people and injured hundreds more when the liner hit rocks last

week athletes from around the world already have their sides firmly set on the next winter olympics in sochi in two years time and the host city which has always been the lure for scores of thrill seekers is making safety a main priority all today are to block the reports of the brave man who are fighting the danger lurking behind the picture perfect mountain peaks. and their song. their mission to keep the beads clear and see. and this is their support. hydrogen proved cool daisy bell is deployed from a helicopter to snow banks and hard to reach areas. it's been snowing heavily in sochi this weekend skipper for a magnificent but what may seem is just snow to most of us can provide prize last

day total recall avalon chanters lineage is the team's lead expert he uses computers and weather stations to monitor the snowfall but being a local who's been living in the caucasus mountains for over forty years the man says there is more to his job than that. though is a living being it has its own life you just have to learn how to understand it and this in turn is only possible if you spend your life with it at times however the snow can turn nasty if there's more than twenty centimeters chances are high it's going to slide for real proves the clues are easy to discover you know if the guy gal or not we build a thirty page thirty centimeter call a tall one and we hit it with a shovel exactly ten times very slightly if the calling falls apart at some point it means the snow is too soft and it will collapse. the avalanche team surveys every new can cranny of the resort they say russians love to push the boundaries

and many skiers like riding off the beaten track but safety is first that there is a holder and besides giving warnings to free riders all areas have to be avalanche free the morning survey is over so now it's time for snow angels to descend to their headquarters and pass on the good news. skipper told colin dispatch over. their new threats were given permission to lead the tourists and start the cable cars in february and march this resort will host international ski competitions bringing new challenges for the avalanche team ahead of the two thousand and fourteen winter games when the venue faces its ultimate test learning to tame the white beast will be more important than ever. all there is a widespread consensus that certain governments and groups go out of their way to make iran seem a bigger threat than it could ever be but as the practice continues public opinion

on the country and ways to deal with it are becoming all but surrounded by fantasy are these new york resident laurie harkness went out to the streets of the big apple to see just how far the truth can be stretched. in the case of iran's nuclear capabilities people are quick to make judgments based on what they hear in the media but are they actually listening to what's being said this week let's talk about that do you agree with president obama's initiative to monitor iran's nuclear program from the moon. yes. i think it's important to know what's going on i do yeah why well just because of the threat to the world what is the threat specifically. or safety has to. we can talk what's his initiative to monitor iran's nuclear program from the base

on the moon yeah yeah i think that's crazy it's just crazy to monitor it from the moon or what they're doing whatever you believe do you agree with his program. you're putting me on you don't believe that from the moon. maybe from a satellite but i think you're putting me on would you be surprised to know that a lot of people just say blindly that they agree with the program from the moon oh that wouldn't surprise me at all that people not human there are lemmings well for things i like to jump off cliffs doesn't the media have a responsibility to guide the lemmings down a better path no lemmings should have their mind of their own and they should be educated i mean people are watching t.v. radio internet so it's if you know even if you're looking for some going of disease you know you find so many interpretations so which one is the right on this difficult yet people say i sought an internet so i believe it's absolutely true so

it's. very hard to find the right source most people just don't have the time don't have the inclination come people there to get into it if you ever tried to have a meaningful discussion with someone about politics i try every day it's pretty pretty bad to be honest you never going to know anyway even if they did put something out there you wouldn't know anyway so. we don't always overstress. you but do you think common sense takes over a little bit oh yes ok we don't know because that's deep space but our moon you think we would know. tonight they're going to look up there to see if it has fought anything. so it seems like some people are listening to what's being said and are thinking for themselves let's just hoping catch the much more subtle inaccuracy as they're bombarded with by the media every day.
