that garrison in charge of site surveillance court will have a visit we spend several hours negotiating bargaining explaining ourselves to the higher ups of the telephone. solicitors reputation and his work with amnesty international in particular allow us to get out of trouble. to. a form of farm worker celestin is the leader of most of the movement for the survival of the ogoni people its founder the writer ken starr we. denounced both the dictatorship in power in the eighty's and the ravages caused by shell the largest of the oil companies present in nigeria. in a sham trial in which he was accused of murder and despite the process stations and anger of the whole world he was condemned to death and hanged along with eight other members of the movement. which company. your cell is yeah. i did visit. several museums

now one company that got the results is something and. development community where they work the next area companies are the ones that's possible because. our cost price isn't going to sort out problems that don't come together because they're not all incumbents are going to get out of. this other company to articulate the problems that this is our problems. take to permanently in school since he has no car no address and no children anyone who. is on the threat of death. religion look because he can cross trialing points that don't even carry.

much weight from official. watch. what happens here. when you hear. or shout as you say. that was

a day off from. everything i don't know sure came through. all of this i did read your history i'll get back. i'll get. on here you to fish for fishing no fish i'm not a girlie it's on them for ever when they speak i shall discover doubts he's been very. large we would see he said with us because they are always afraid the people of the regions and composition. we mustn't lump everyone together not all the companies they hate or have behaved

is probably a shell in nigeria. it's just the worst one amongst them the. offshore total allows us to go from installation to installation. to jack ryan is a motion a special position by satellite with its derrick and its pipes it conforms to the stereotypical image we have of oil drilling. beneath the boat three thousand meters of water on it or pockets or a further two thousand meters below the sea bed. and i talk on it they didn't pass condition for a few months by a crane dragged three men into the sea one die. for the nigerians on board the wages are unique and a good living in a world where your black and white.

so begrudging they got a big bunch of fried you know that one. is the big bunch i go yes. but. not one of the i don't know but. on the floor below we can clearly see a pipe plunging into a pool on the ship. this is the i'm going to cook or fix to the sea bed. inside they slide the rods that were drilled down to the deposit. and the oil is reached. they install a sort of giant valve several stories high over the brilliant been done it and the engineers have

a very pretty neat name for it. but. the point here we are in front of the christmas tree is that when you cool it christmas tree which yeah the christmas tree did so well head and ridges in charge of that was based on a scale of zero because they fear. my. face . yeah. yeah. it was a. christmas tree their big day to fight for. this is it's what. was going on with the guys i feel like since something is going on we will see what's in my notebook. to do this but. this is. twenty feet first my street. so we started to go

in a similar. run by. summer day so. you have the money back when you best buy back your. three years on things so it's. not just. with those just give. you money. for. a short celestin is continue his crusade and he takes us to an incredible small swallowed up by the underground or. the very far away i would be denied that. for their body or where. i went up are. very good that they're fifty six. but if you. yes well where i would love to be not that. i'm nuts about you also about us

but as i speak i like my place you know going and not. going to of course. you can see. bones used as you can see ya don't don't you don't need to look like when long i want to finish you still go. after his boy i'm money i'm give those after you finish he's got a bond under community he's not up to something right. i'm .

a big. big

. seriously i'm just coverage buzy. leg. communicating with you want to. test yourself and become free. to see what nature can give you. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so you think you understand it and then something else hears

you some other part of it and realize everything you thought you knew you don't know i'm sorry i think. the arab league is set to decide whether to give a go now to another month of their monitoring mission in syria while the opposition wants the un security council to get involved. pushed to get the internet or opt in a furor over plans to expand west central ship striking back with the internet by blackouts and a massive hacking attacks led israel and the u.s. top tactics over a possible conflict in the gulf as they gather forces adarand borders while the e.u. prepares an oil embargo over the ron's alleged nuclear ambitions. and in romania public anger spilled over hundreds arrested and dozens injured as police

quell violence summit of mount civil going as a government protests. it is ten am in the russian capital you're watching our team and i'm marina joshie welcome to the program the arab league's fact finding mission in syria is waiting for the green light to continue its monitoring of timothy's for another month decision is due to come later on sunday as the observers report comes under scrutiny gathering in cairo that's a bit harsh criticism from opposition groups which say gives or remission has failed to curb bloodshed in the latest flare up at least fourteen people have reportedly been killed in a roadside bomb attack on a van carrying prisoners in the northwest of the country are you sara for us join the observers as the visit a town near the syrian capital damascus now controlled by opposition forces. well

the arab league delegation is think higher than they've been presenting their findings that despite the arab league mission monday having finished you can see they continue to travel around the country to look at what's. been seen as further evidence by some people that this mission is to continue possibly for another month one of the observers i stated earlier of camera when i asked whether they would be staying here longer whether the mission would be extended he said it looked like it would be this is the area that you seen the free syrian army take control of and in the past few days a temporary ceasefire between the cabinet forces and free syrian army sweeping into the sticky to see what's been happening certainly it's an area extremely divided a one sided called the government in control of. the free syrian army the arab league observers have been meeting some of the government officials here. tell me

to try and establish exactly what it is that's been happening in the city with the children a pin showing us some of the bullet casings that they found around the area all the houses in this part you can see the destruction from the fighting this thing going on. in this area and that's what the extremely concerning the people who are still living heard extremely dangerous situation is not really clear who exactly is in charge he's been killing hate and that makes the situation very very dangerous indeed because this is their main says one of the house itself it is thanks was targeted by security. cameras see is that they chanting and pulling phrases that he she may cross the conflict in syria has been devastatingly high and absolutely essential to everyone right now is to find some kind of resolution that this is the final.

opposition activists from syria's national council have formally asked the arab league to refer the crisis to the u.n. security council but as artie's refinishing now reports there are doubts over whether it's peace we are after. howlett whole journey 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.n.c. was created for our name goal is to help the syrian people who are present them and their two national community in order to reach this syrian people freedom although it's been run by paris based example that hum and you the asson see has been recognized as the country's lee determined 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 to nato made to the national transitional council respective leaders was that they'd 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 as national transitional council and the syrian national council at this point is their names they have in common supported and sponsored from a brave thing he writes opposition forces and their major goal is to overthrow the regime but there is a difference to the absences hardcore says i'm not in the musters 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 khalid says he's kind fifteen years in jail

and in one thousand 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 claiming they're only going to rely on political and diplomatic pressure they ass and see to know is. now carburation with the free syrian army fighters who have defected from a star's military in was a clear shift from the u.s. and says initial entirely nor armed peaceful stuns. the council also sees humanitarian corridors and buffer zones as options to protect civilians in syria even though these might mean foreign troops arriving this is a top is all paris operation where the syria national guard has been used to at best and generally it's a regular job because they do what they want at this they're all a syrian 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 efforts sooner or later will force president assad out while his attorneys 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 and raef notion r.t. turkey. and coming up later in the program when the rose tinted glasses of the revolution give way to a crystal clear view of reality through the fire from the libyan revolt turned their backs on the country's new rulers who they see as failing to implement promised changes. and you can also check out our website r.t. to accomplish more first hand reports from countries where arab spring euphoria quickly gave way to disillusionment and outright pessimism.

now this week saw more clouds gathering over the standoff surrounding iran u.s. and israeli officials held close talks on friday regarding the tense situation in the persian gulf while these apps conference were not disclosed the u.s. was expected to have urged israel not to rush an attack on iran while washington tries to garner additional global support against iran before that israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu urged the e.u. to him bargain iranian oil as quickly as possible or to ron's alleged nuclear weapons program meanwhile ron has been threatening to block a key trade route out of the persian gulf if sanctions are imposed on its own exports the u.s. has been amassing forces in the region with thousands of troops sent to israel for war games and to warships drive groups arriving in the arabian sea caleb moppin from the anti-war group international action center says what the u.s. really wants is to regain control over rein oil last decades ago.

the motivation for the u.s. to continue repressing the iranian people to assassinate nuclear scientists it has nothing to do with any love of democracy it has everything to do with the fact that the iranian people rose up in one nine hundred seventy nine and took control of the oil resources and they have never ever forgiven them for that and the us. has never wanted to tolerate the fact that the iranian people are not shell oil and not and not texaco control of the oil resources in iraq any threats of wars must be strongly opposed because these kind of wars serve the ruling elite they serve the wall street bankers and they don't serve working class people or millions and millions of unemployed people in this country if they cut the military budget they could put people to work there could be jobs but there's not jobs there's war there's continued threats of war and our enemies are in iran they're here in the united states in the halls of power in congress and on wall street. with regional tensions simmering people are in and not only in iran but also in israel as policy reports many there are expecting

a war it annie moments and some experts say covert warfare is already under way from this rather spartan recording studio and should we send him when he's maybe too has been reaching out to people in iran for fifty two years ties between tel aviv and him ran off to britain but it's never stopped from reading the news in farsi every night and hosting a weekly show for listeners in the persian world to share the views he thinks around a million rain ians children and the topic they most want to talk about the possibility of a foreign attack on iran they are very much afraid that the runyon near clearance from nations will be. forty in provers with their israel or its you know its or any other country. but it's not only be raining for suspicious of israel or america taking action people here in israel since something is in the air you can see signs of wink and nod from israeli officials when talking about it israel is

signaling to the world. if the world doesn't do anything if the war doesn't call for war pierce actions or more properly sanctions quoting the secretary of state clinton then israel would take the initiative and strike along some wonder if israel hasn't already declared an unofficial warranty ran but suspicions raise further after the assassination of another iranian nuclear scientist earlier this month and on his way to work with everything together it is clear that whoever it is but if someone or somebody or some agency is very successful in infiltrating understanding every last sabotaging during a nuclear for the attack is the latest in a series of mysterious accidents linked to iran's nuclear program two aircraft accidents in the space of three years scientists disappearing equipment damaged and computer viruses and leashed and the fingers pointing at israel. and the united

states this is a very respectable go on the notion. here and has made me an image. in mind it's not your imagination adding fuel to the fire the plan for israel and the united states to conduct their biggest joint military goal before the end of the year it would see thousands of american troops deployed in israel for a rant it's the most blatant sign that in attacks coming but no one in israel will come on record and say there is a cold war and he ran all talk of an israeli strike is limited to the airwaves policy r.t. jerusalem. and is it sanctioned sabotage in a military buildup near its borders weren't enough yet another front has opened up for the embattled islamic republic of iran in which language channel gets the boot from british here waves as patience with its return to stance once then details are

coming up in just a few minutes. but he's clashed with protesters in the capital gracious jury an anti e.u. rally ahead of sunday's referendum over whether the country should join the european union at least three people were arrested in the scuffle which erupted as protest tries to take down an e.u. flag in the center of the city some of the demonstrators were before the injured by police a recent survey showed at least forty percent of gracious population are against joining the union. to similar scenes now in romania which this week has had some of its biggest protests in years outraged with pay cuts and corruption people gathered in the streets of bucharest to call in the country's president to step down on friday hundreds were arrested and dozens injured as police used tear gas to disperse crowds artie's town barton has the story. nights and day they come to scream

defiance point single stare it's the feeling the government isn't listening to. even violence. our youth has no future they have no. no water is sixty she's worked all her life in a textile factory in book arrest but now she is forced to pay for her social security out of her small pension. they need to give us a fair pension and not tell us they're borrowing the money because they don't have it. is not just here for herself her son left her mania but it's illegal to try and find work young rumanians feel trapped and directing most of their anger at the president try and assess who protesters accuse him of trampling over democracy and presiding over a political elite riddled with corruption. who wants to take dissent screw down down with the sas. parents left us with

a heritage and we're leaving our children with just that an international monetary fund loan in two thousand and nine came with tough conditions to remain in government has tried to force its financial house into water budget and benefit cuts slashed pay pension freezes falling living standards but some say it's the people who are now being forced to pay for the mistakes of the few and stay the country economic disaster. this was done at the expense of their remain in state and now those who hadn't been guilty for the situation they didn't even profited from it had to play for those who had profited. the government blames international economic conditions however for the country's words. let's not forget that we're in the eye of a storm of an economic european storm all around us unfortunately is a mighty tempest with economic consequences that inevitably affect us too just not

good enough so the opposition who argue of course that they could do better every day discouraged inefficient government stays in power is a day last for. or jews used to shorten the period as much as we come on fast as we can by fair elections with many know accepting there is no escape economically politics for them offers the only hope of change and that leads straight back out onto the streets. these. days are. more stereotypic rock should. the president. be here and you can see why we may need to change it all down and start again. from an organized internet why black out to some of the biggest hacker attacks on top media and us government websites this week saw an unprecedented internet revolt

over new web censorship legislation millions of net users and web giants such as would pedia join together to stand against the proposed legislation so part and people the laws if passed would allow top media conglomerates and copyright holders to shut down whole swathes of the web at a time at the same time rather the anonymous hatter group was were tailgating against the shutdown of file sharing side road and claimed to have brought down the websites of the f.b.i. and the white house there brown who has worked with anonymous on various operations believes that shutdown shows the true extent of government power. 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 notice it with weight on mega.
