when security council resolution on syria is under consideration russia rejected the latest draft put forward by e.u. and arab states calling for regime change in the country and allowing further action if the mass because it doesn't comply political analyst even then believes it's not a coincidence that the arab league froze its mission just as western powers up the calls for foreign involvement. oh my goodness that sounds like a no fly zone and different language it was an open sesame to direct intervention meaning war the observers were said into syria you know they picked the wrong man to lead the mission sudanese general he they thought the air man in charge who would deliver the goods against. believing here for everything going or what a general who he said has started cooperating it's exactly the opposite of what the last one they wanted a precarious just step up whatever they have in mind which is some kind of. the
12:01 pm
best solution is the worst syria's civil it's only a theory it's usually a chimera opposition in syria syria is that authoritarian state recorder in the when they can get out yes or do we get to go get a national poll that apparently go some credibility so that a bonjour already of syrians. for america and britain and the arab league to intervene in syria use the fears and to have an arrogant resolution saying and although i would do what you are unique in the weeks we are assad absolutely should in diplomatic way which told these people to go. around one hundred observers and still in syria waiting further instructions but gulf nations are not taking part they withdrew their monitors saying the mission had failed to hold the syrian government to its pledge to end violence the surface reports weakening the fact finding team leaves syrians they're preparing for the last. saying they get by and
12:02 pm
heading home they've said it's from the gulf states lethal the airport then mission incomplete leaving behind a country in a deepening crisis is never going to be easy so you want the arab league monitors to stay. warm right from the word gay the missions prefer problematic the opposition accuse the monitors of being too closely aligned with the government the government's now accused of being part of a foreign conspiracy and they will it just to cool complains to the observers seem to liquid on the ground and there are concerns that they were simply too few numbers to undertake such a major task but if things were bad at the beginning now they seem even worse following in saudi arabia's footsteps all the gulf states withdrew their observers after damascus rejected their recent proposal that included president assad cede power to a deputy and form
12:03 pm
a unity government was interesting that these countries is very interested in democracy and to have nothing this is the most interesting this is something pani will talk about. what will have a new constitution we are going to more democratic country two parties was about what about to do about the west's talk about syria which would be changed and leave it to damascus says rejection was no surprise both sides of the conflict of shame equal unwillingness to soften their stance even when the daily death toll in the country continually rising the killing of the head of the syrian arab red crescent was on the road to damascus yet another remind the spiraling situation. of the observers at such a crucial maybe into the country's quite serious is seen as controversial the arab league essentially has no credibility on the arab street. what the arab league
12:04 pm
mission is trying to accomplish is good enough everything is concrete everything about human rights abuses on the part of the our so very seem to think so the un and the evidence will be so strong that even russia and china would feel compelled to work as of now one month after this mission started they seem to know the monitors seem to know more about what's going on the ground and they think at the beginning and so it all looks like you know we're going back to square one as the death toll rises the early days of being floated to increase the number as it says on the ground and provide them with u.n. training could be a life saving but for now these plants of interest hold hold in fact much of the substance of the report that they graded pieces on both sides seems to have been lost in the gallery of the basic activity now france and britain have joined forces at the united nations and president just. waving good bye that gulf state
12:05 pm
colleagues some observers remain but it's small consolation syria didn't close the doors in for the arab league i think. it's diplomacy will give anyone to help the syrian but the last decision in the hands of the syrian people not in the hands not arab league squad concept it's a gloomy outlook for the country with little regional or international agreements and what action should be taken to stop the violence and putting an end to the crisis seem to be slipping further and further as a very. artsy damascus syria. in syria has knocked in the spine of bonds libya is not far behind coming up on our t.v. mom saw after the fall of gadhafi respected and you don't without borders suspends its mission to to appear after being forced to treat torture victims and then sent straight back for interrogation. so that's still to come for you this hour but first you and you can inspectors. started

a three day mission to examine iran's atomic activities to iran says it certainly talks the first in more than three years will prove its programs purpose is purely peaceful the a visit comes at a time when tensions between iran and the west are approaching crisis level on monday e.u. nations adopted an unprecedented sense of sanctions against the islamic republic which include a complete involve go on oil supplies from iran professor marandi from the university of tehran says the fact the ban was approved just before the i.a.e.a. visit shows that talks are unlikely to change the west's approach to iran. but the a currently has full time monitors in iran in this is something that we rarely hear in the western media and we have cameras in all of iran installations so therefore there is absolutely no evidence whatsoever that iran's nuclear program is anything but peaceful and. has no evidence on this the iranians are not very optimistic
12:07 pm
about the i a because it is heavily influenced by western countries it's not a democratic body most of the members on the board are european and north american they don't represent the international community at all and the head of the i.a.e.a. is he owes his job to the united states if you look at the wiki leaks documents but again the iranians are attempting to resolve the issue despite the fact that in the past when the iranians had attempted to put. the issue front to negotiate and resolve the americans blocked it such as the tehran declaration between brazil iraq and turkey and more recently the russians step by step proposal that the west has and hasn't been supporting. meanwhile to iran is preparing a response to the embargo iranian lawmakers are considering an immediate halt of oil sales to europe should ensure foreign activists from the campaign against sanctions and military intervention in iran says the measure shows to iran is powerful enough not to succumb to economic pressure the grace period that they had
12:08 pm
envisioned for six months for it is going to take place may actually not be that graceful so iran is taking matters into his own hands and now they see is that it shows the complex if they are feeling in the midst of politics and the power that the iranian parliament holds and that is accountable to its people and it's not going to just sit back and watch what's going to happen to the national. the wrong . again it's. a confrontation between iran and the list i see as the same time that imposing does involve those on iran if you see that some european countries are selling more arms to the countries the arab countries of the persian gulf so they are benefiting from the iran the phobia they start creating in the region so why solve the problem with negotiations why some countries are cashing in what we're keeping
12:09 pm
a close eye on the iranian oil and nuclear sagar on air and online and you can head to our website or to dot com for more analysis updates on the latest developments. and you are movement protesters once again turn violent an oakland california police fired tear gas at some two thousand demonstrators several hundred were arrested as they attempt to talk a part of vacant convention center before storming into city hall artie's marina porton has more. it began around saturday afternoon when roughly two hundred fifty occupy occupy optimists in oakland california began demonstrating in the streets and it was hours past the crowd grew stronger and stronger up to roughly twenty two thousand people strong ultimately what the goal was for this demonstration is for
12:10 pm
protesters to take over and abandoned building where they wanted to create their new headquarters because as our viewers may remember crossed the country in the united states just a few months ago police departments are removed activists from their camps and this was an attempt for oakland optimist to set up a new headquarters but as the crowd grew stronger and larger of thankfully the police in oakland began firing tear gas and flash grenades at the occupy atlanta this morning to the police they say members of the crowd began throwing things at times at the officers and that is what ultimately triggered this clash between police officers and occupy optimist but as far as we know this is not the first time we've seen a fierce clash between officers and activists in oakland california got in october
12:11 pm
there was a least three hundred people arrested and a former u.s. marine by the name scott olsen was left in critical condition with a head injury from being struck in the head by a police tear gas can canister and this is something odd that put a lot of criticism on the police department in oakland california they've been criticized for being very harsh with occupy out. live from moscow your with our t.v. with twenty four hours a day we've got much more coming up for you later in the program pre-election agitation grips russia we take a look at our politicians are making a push for power on the internet. but first it's been a turbulent week for poland which or thousands of people protesting against the anti web piracy pact their countries signed up to along with twenty one other european states activists say the multinational deal which still needs to be ratified by the european parliament allows firms to censor the internet next year
12:12 pm
reports from warsaw. at first thousands across poland directed their anger squarely at the notorious anti counterfeit trade agreement the idea of funding. for publishing the it's a trademark. somehow illogical to me it's like punishing the corporation that produces knifes for knives being used to kill somebody but with every passing rally the protest grew more political the crowds put prime minister government under fire for signing the agreement on thursday most governmental websites were hijacked by the anonymous hacker group i think they are trying to maximize us with. the promise is that there would be a sudden closer touch to the documents that says that we have rights. to. the rights for our own interpretation of the second but that's not possible knows a lot from our government technically active should be
12:13 pm
a good thing protecting intellectual property ranging from music to design your bags but the global online community fears corporations will use it to police the web and take regular users offline for harmless internet behavior it certainly has a striking resemblance to the much debated sopa bill in the united states which sent even online giants like google and wikipedia to take direct action but the law was only meant to work locally across the atlantic while act would be applied more globally they are not. racial groups and in some countries it needs to be ratified by parliament but not in every country so we have another. failed but actor is still an option for many many countries it was too much for one french e.u. deputy he quit calling actor ash a raid then came the twitter twist the micro-blogging site saying it can now censor
12:14 pm
tweets country by country pride is active protests. in war so we're expected to gather up to forty thousand people but a sudden big freeze kept many away nevertheless the intends to rally for several more weeks hoping to urge warsaw's ruling circles to take a step back twenty one other e.u. member states along with poland signed actor but it's only here but the decision has caused so much controversy and public dissent the document is yet to be ratified by the country spahr laments which certainly leaves the possibility of more protests everywhere across the european continent let's. see reporting from poland. well as our correspondent mentioned the microblogging firm twitter is in a flap over a censorship scandal of its own we've got more analysis on that's on our website dot com including one suggestion that the move will ultimately backfire on the government's. twitter is said to make it very clear that their users your government is censoring you and i think that will be
12:15 pm
a huge step in pressuring people the share of the stuff that was censored but also pressuring governments to change their policy. what is the full conversation with internet liberty campaign aaron swartz t.v. dot com also online of the moment. the internet's most famous whistleblower is getting ready to reveal even more on t.v. julian assange is not his own talk show here on our t.v. all the details of that on our website. deadly clashes between fighters belonging to libya's interim government and soldiers loyal to the slain colonel gadhafi in bani walid this week sparked fears of a new civil war the national transitional council reportedly began amassing forces including truck mounted anti aircraft cannons near the former stronghold of the
12:16 pm
gadhafi regime the build up came after government troops were forced out of the restive town the unrest mirrors the growing frustration in libya and many people accuse the n t c of incompetence and the violent power struggles between former rebels second chandan a spokesman for british civilians for peace in libya explains why the council is failing to unite the country. the gadhafi regime could control the whole of libya could find peace amongst all the tribes the new regime cannot even control something in one town or one area i mean they turn libya into a war and off the hunting of black skins they have they're selling off their oil and natural resources and sovereignty to nato and now the thieves that is the rebels they're all falling out with each other so really this is the chief of freedom and democracy by nato it's all become very clear people of syria and the people of lebanon and the people of the global south have to see about what's happening in libya is coming to them if they're not able to defend themselves and stop this rolling western aggression against other countries in the global south.
12:17 pm
libya's interim leadership also came under fire from the u.n. this week over a failure to stop the torture of thousands of prisoners two international organizations doctors without borders and amnesty international say detainees are being tortured and killed in recent months they also point to widespread abuse of former gadhafi supporters and as artie's merritt for national reports hopes are fading that the nato backed government can actually offer a new beginning. doctors without borders known for going do their job in the most dangerous and notorious places around the globe but in n.t.s.c. iran libya the group has encountered a formidable obstacle they couldn't overcome burns from electric shocks and cigarettes heavy bruising and renal failure all this evidence of the continued torture of prisoners say the doctors and now after two inmates died from the beatings the international group has stopped its mission in protest. patients were
12:18 pm
brought to us in the middle of interrogation for medical care in order to make them fit for further interrogation this is an acceptable our rule is to provide medical care to war casualties and sick detainees not to repeatedly treat the same patients between torture sessions the news comes amidst rising anger with libya's interim government demonstrations in benghazi last week ended with the resignation of a high ranking member of the m.t.c. it started with the very beginning of the rebellion very beginning of the insurrection the second day of the rebellion on eighteenth of february the african migrants were rounded up locked in a detention center and burnt to death and the n.p.c. expressed their support for this time this is part of the strategy of the west you know divide and rule that was given the green light for the torture and execution that we're seeing now so this is a clear recipe for civil war meanwhile the nato operation that brought them to see to power is by itself raising question as. a high

12:20 pm
the nato campaign to protect civilians this fact the mission discovered again crimes against humanity but the goal was not to judge but to shed light on what happened and not to repeat the mistakes a recent united nations report has revealed that up to eight thousand supporters have been held by militia groups in libya right now and with numerous occasions of torture and revenge killings throughout the country hopes of a new beginning for libya are fading quickly. r.t. . libya however isn't the only nation coping with post revolutionary unrest it back to egypt square as hundreds of thousands rally against the absolute power of the ruling military and its reluctance to step down that is coming your way in the next hour here on r.t. . first in the election campaigning here in russia richard webb weapons there on
