it's going to play an already very volatile situation and unfortunately that seems to be exactly what we've seen happening here now foreign minister sergei lavrov was speaking today on his tour of the age of pacific countries and he said that he didn't understand why such a useful tool had been treated in this way we've seen the observer mission start and eventually grounds to hold they never really recovered after that decision last week for the gulf states when they withdrew their monitors now their decision they said was because they felt the mission had failed to hold the syrian government to its pledge to end the violence and it was a surprising decision that's how the foreign minister described it because at exactly the same time that the gulf states made that decision the decision would also be made to extend the mission so just at a very very crucial time with the situation in the country rather than making this mission strolled up rather than trying to make it more effective if you have the gold states withdrawing them on it is now he said that that aroused questions we

saw the me saying coming up on tuesday where the as the gaze of three presenting. findings essentially briefing the u.n. and most days maimed remains very very adamant that it's not going to back any plan that's going to leave the door open to foreign military intervention in fact again their response to western cool's now that has said that it's impossible to hold dialogue with the regime here the foreign minister called very irresponsible and indeed unforgivable as i think there's a real sense that this arab league with the want to put unity ready to piss you the resolution to dialogue and to try and calm is extremely volatile situation it's shocking really to see how much the situation is escalating day by day when a you've really seen this conflict creeping towards the capital people in damascus who waking up to the sound of gunfire from the suburbs this arab league mission.

essentially has turned out to be a dance squid and there's a lot of people here saying what was the point in having them here in the first place if they were going to be made strengthened if they were going to try worked well was dialogue and always essentially were going to lead to u.n. action anyway. to vinland believes it's not a coincidence that the arab league froze its mission just as western powers are because for foreign involvement. well my goodness it sounds like a no fly zone a different way which it was an open sesame to direct intervention meaning war the observers were seared into syria. the wrong man to lead the mission to sudanese general be they thought their man in charge who would deliver the goods against the side believing him for everything going or what a general do these terrorists are just 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 best solution is the worst syria's civil it's all of syria's you is a legitimate opposition in syria syria is there a story here you see a reporter in the london guardian or do we get to go get a national poll that apparently there's some credibility so the unsure really of syrians. for america in britain and in the arab league to intervene in syria years of three years and to have an arrogant resolution saying it will the power do will be a beauty in two weeks well absolutely should in diplomatic way which show these people who are. a series knocked in a spiral of violence is not far behind coming up on our team months after the fall of gadhafi respects of doctors without borders to spend that special to me after being forced to treat torture victims who are then sent straight on for having to

a geisha. when you play inspector they have started a three day mission to examine iran's atomic exhibit is to rise as the talks with the international atomic energy agency the fast and more than three years will prove its nuclear program is purely peaceful the i.a.e.a. because it comes as tensions between iran and the west any a crisis level on monday e.u. nations adopted and president. set of sanctions again things that make our public think a complete involve their own oil supplies from iran and are expected to come into force in july and direct all of this center for essential globalization and i shall decide else he says that what we are witnessing now is part of a big us plan for war against iraq i think what we are witnessing here is is a build up towards the ability to really confrontation these sanctions. constitute in some regards the staging of all

of a military agenda and i should mention that we have a massive well i was of u.s. military hardware troops going into israel to be stationed at israel more troops going to cooperate. you know with naval forces in galt's in the arabian sea. and in other words i think what we're going to states wants. including its allies is some kind of a green light which will give a human face to all all of. underway keeping a close eye on the ring in oil and nuclear is sounder on air and online so head to our web site on to dot com for more analysis and updates on the latest developments and ride that we ask or two thing two hours talks with the u.n. inspectors will bring and so far the majority sixty seven percent of you think the u.s. is heading toward war with iran regardless sixteen percent of you don't see any way out thinking iran won't give up its nuclear program thirteen percent saying you are

inspectors will find that tehran is telling the truth and the minority of four percent perceive the visit as a new step towards a solution of the crisis so i want to use playing to r.t. and cast your vote. for us or goodbye a movement protest has once again turned violent in oakland california police fired tear gas on some two thousand demonstrators several hundred were arrested as their attempt to occupy a vacant convention center before storming into city hall aunties were in a port niehaus mall. it began around saturday afternoon when roughly two hundred fifty occupy occupy optimists in oakland california began demonstrating in the streets and as hours passed the crowd grew stronger and stronger up to crosley

twenty two thousand people strong ultimately what the goal was for this demonstration is for protesters to take over an empty 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 optimiser to set up a new headquarters but as the crowd grew stronger and larger of then chile the police in oakland began firing tear gas and flash grenades i v 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 came to occupy an optimist but as guys we know this is not the first time

we've seen a fierce clash between officers and activists in oakland california doc in october 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. in south florida is from the international action center tells us and despite the increasing violence on the rez the future of the occupy movement is still very bright. it's very much achieving its goals in terms of waking up the youth in the us waking up working people in the us to the reality the reality that poor and working people are losing more and

more and that one percent actually one thousand one percent is gaining a normal new wealth so that there are very successful in drawing attention to that despite a shutdown by the media and by the police and that movement is very determined to continue and define a new tactic. here we've got much more coming up feel a shame the program like for election. preelection agitation groups rush hour take a look at how politicians are making a push for power on the internet. about an hour president obama vowed to have for talks and fights poverty while hailing america's military during his state of the union speech this week much of the focus and they see as address was dedicated to the country's charlie economy and the percy problem of inequality embodied by the occupy movement a bomb also praised on the advisers abroad and the assassination of osama bin laden

the speeches are regarded as a free election chance for obama to sell his campaign to the public and professor paul sheldon of food from california state university believes that dress clearly demonstrates the policy priorities chosen by obama's administration. your use that you. were going to have an enduring relationship. which means we're going to have bases in the country and for it whether they want to serve. likewise he said regional gadhafi syria's next day and if iran doesn't behave there there after that so. it is totally contradictory to say that he's going to be able to pay down the debt in the extraneous government spending programs domestically with savings from bringing soldiers older more is what in fact he has plans to expand while he didn't mention china played amy also said that we have

a pacific strategy and the world will know that we are number one. and that was a thinly veiled threat against china even i mean how insane can you be china's holding more than a trillion dollars of our debt we've got tens of thousands of factories there we're highly coordinated doing depended on them now and he's threatening them to and they're intended and we compiled and wish there were thousands of people protesting against the anti web piracy pox that can change sign up to i don't with twenty one other european states back to say the multinational deal which sony to be ratified by the european parliament allows funds to censor the internet and if he or she asked reports oppa. at first thousands across poland directed their anger squarely at the notorious anti counterfeit trade agreement the idea of funding. for publishing be. somehow illogical to me it's

like punishing the corporation that produces knifes for. 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're trying to maximize us with. the promise is that there would be a sudden closer touch to the documents. that we have. the right for our own interpretation of looking but that's not possible knows a lot from our government technically active should be a good thing protecting intellectual property ranging from music to design your bags with 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. and in some countries it needs to be ratified by every country so we have another. option for many many. it was too much for one french e.u. deputy he quit calling act charade then came the twitter twist the micro-blogging site saying it can now censor 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 never the last of the indians to rally for several more weeks hoping to urge warsaw's ruling circles to take a step back doing to one other issue member states along with poland signed an

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. say just mentioned they microblogging twitter is not part of a friendship scandal all that so i don't go through another term of that website i had a home in closing in why i suggested that the move will ultimately back the government . has said that make it very clear to their users your government is censoring you and i think that will be a huge step in pressuring people to share the stuff that was censored but also pressuring governments to change their policies. at all to the full conversation with the interplay between campaign irish autonomously dot com and also online. the internet's most famous a whistleblower is getting ready to reveal even more on t.v.

that sounds as though inching his own talk show on our street over details on our website. this week egyptians marks a years since the beginning of the country's uprising with hundreds of thousands flooding into her square the iconic basque plays of the revolution polls have opened for the upper house of parliament weeks after islamist parties claimed an overwhelming majority in the lower house the new government is also tasked with developing the country's constitution egyptians today are demanding a resolution of the dissolution rather of military council which inherited absolute power from deposed president hosni mubarak no matter who is in control egyptian officer and the filmmaker philip morris believes charles change will be held. i

don't see it as being that big of a shift i mean we lived under military rule for thirty years and that gave the government the authority to do just about what they wanted to me it's just a formal matter and that they they lived emergency law while we live under the rule of a military jointer since the military took over general twenty eight's over fifteen thousand civilians that we know of have faced military courts and they have received trials of anywhere between six months to fifteen years and they've tasted power they have massive economic interests in the country again everything that's happened in egypt really needs to be looked at from an economic perspective in that there is a group of cronies of man and his government that were in power they've been moved out of power and there's a new group of cronies that are in place and they will not just let go and hand over power like that without having guarantees that their interests will be secured libya's interim leadership came under fire from the u.n. this week of a failure to stop the torture of thousands of prisoners to international

organizations doctors without borders and amnesty international say detainees have been tortured and killed in recent months and they also point to widespread abuse of former gadhafi supporters and there's a very you know sharples hopes are fading that the nato bombs government cash really offer a new beginning. doctors without borders no need to go in do their job. most dangerous and notorious places around the globe but an end to see run 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 beatings the international group has stopped its mission in protest patients were 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 support for this time and this is part of the strategy of the west you know divide and rule and that was given the green light of the torture and execution that we're seeing now so this is a recipe for civil war meanwhile the nato operation that brought the m.t.c. to power is by itself raising questions. and high profile international team of human rights activists has been to leave here to

investigate some of the two that it bears entity of were with. in the province. there were guiding the air raids and they are acting them and court have been raping them if you are mandated. that. it is very very accurate in a way that i myself saw the killing of so many people in front of my eyes i saw the killing go fifty one people in front of my eyes being dissed was fifteen years old and while all sides in the libyan conflict are to blame for violence and violations the human rights activists claim not all of them have been held responsible for their wrongdoing. investigating what happened during libras seven months civil war and the nato campaign to protect civilians this fact the mission discovered again
