a very serious wall of mistrust between that iran and america because of america's past performance and actions in iraq. they want iraq war was a very stark reminder name audience that they were isolated as iran was being pounded in and civilian centers the western powers were giving arms and weapons to saddam hussein this has been the root of most of the ones mistrust were dressed of the world. the cold war. but. that of. it all you express ourselves through rap music when the motor the jew we

a civil union is not the same world these you know not us citizens of any country but as humans. this is basically a deposition of aging from one thousand to twenty my interpretation has been to bring all of these elements in this this moral agency and see how it works in fun temporaries time. as i was working the ransom here on earth taking place in the green movement so a lot of this is here just current events that they're shocked by mobile phones and recorded as rossi's made their patients the detainees and still. there's a reason for this uprising is that people downtown voltaire's and their voice was.

this week at the date for the national referendum on the country's new constitution was announced the vote is expected to take place next sunday as far as the ministry of internal affairs of syria has said around fifteen million people in syria today have the right to vote this new constitution was drafted. and the monopoly of the ruling party the bath party here in syria had been in power for the last fifty years but people on the ground are actually fearing that this referendum and this new constitution is too little and too late this with the chinese delegation visited syria both russia and china are calling for the dialogue to be restored between the syrian opposition and the authorities. saying that this is the only way out of this crisis. very financial reporting there from syria damascus is paving the way for a gradual transition to democracy but the armed opposition doesn't want to peaceful

solution because it's following a foreign jannah for regime change and that's the view of they ruled based political analyst omar in a shabby. the way forward is to have dialogue and i think in order to have dialogue there must be sacrifices on the on on both sides here is the president making. a huge move forward by presenting a draft of the constitution and i think that's should be in his view were and in many people's view sufficient for convience the other side to sit down on the table . and to have a serious dialogue. that would save syria the destruction and the so many people. syrian opposition is calling for reform what is the best way to get that done is it through cutting weapons and shooting at government institutions and particularly

each other and having a civil more of course not i think all the syrians would agree however many of the groups who are fighting today in cities they are actually are not that ready for dialogue they have they have working according to western agenda the order to remove the you know if i think there's anything in the problem or foreign interference in sit in affairs and all the way here in r.t.e. embracing the bogeyman. if. the chinese are going to get. it to go to get it they can. find out why the white house is comfortable in that it would be seen despite a rising wave of time phobia across the u.s. . and that was deja vu for protesters in bahrain as the university of the country's uprising was met with a brutal crackdown by believes. iran is stepping up its

nuclear program at an underground site near the city of qom by installing sauza as of new generation sense fuses according to reports. and israel is stepping up its and iran rather weak and urging the international community to increase sanctions against iran is really being behind by attacks targeting its diplomats and georgia and thailand earlier this week. under enormous international pressure over its nuclear program denies any involvement islamic state insists its nuclear war is peaceful and accuses israel of waging a psychological war that some theory is paving the way for military action with alice chris bambery explains what he thinks israel is up to. now i think what they're really and israelis are trying to do is trying to up the ante to the americans will do something they aren't capable of taking around nuclear program they don't have the means to do it best they could memorize a hit and run and run attack but i think it actually behind the rhetoric about

nuclear weapons the reality is what they are worried about is the increase of increase of power and influence in the region who really is of constantly said that they're not going to me nuclear weapons international atomic energy inspectors have just been to iran and came back saying it was a good visit they're going back to iran they're getting cooperation you wouldn't know this from reports in the western media so i think there is a rush to go but my opinion is the ratcheting up is not by the iranians it is by the israelis and by the americans and i think there is a lot of hypocrisy a boat iran's nuclear program. well we are closely following the situation in iran so we can log onto our web site r.t. dot com for the latest developments. any of warships have sailed through the suez canal into the mediterranean learn where they are had it on our website also. talks to the people in tehran for their perspective on the country's controversial nuclear program and get an insight from the iranian students who volunteered to carry out nuclear research.

activists in bahrain were targeted with your gas is a mark the first anniversary of a shia led uprising on tuesday despite promises of police reform last year just as before officers responded with force although this time manny of the tactics and weapons came not from behind but from the u.k. all ravenna reports. to gas and stun grenades supposedly the work of a reformed police force but one year on since the first anti-government protests were crushed in bahrain it seems not much has changed the only difference now the crackdown has been planned by one of britain's former top cops. used to be assistant commissioner of london's metropolitan police he now works for bahrain's

moment which says. police reforms the police behavior despicably the trick is to throw cancer tear gas into the homes of people they don't like shut the doors and people have died choking to death to just so use out of doors and i think for the british police officer mr gates is retired to be associated in any way with his it's his role resign from scotland yard last year and early fix him of the phone hacking scandal he popped up in bahrain in december as part of the regime's. he our campaign to clean up its image a campaign pushed hard it seems by yeats himself he recently told the daily telegraph his new charges had a well rehearsed plan for the anniversary of the uprising adding the concept of reasonable reaction to provocation has been reinforced. as for the uprising itself he said this isn't organized protests it's just vandalism rioting on the streets

claims hotly disputed by london's bahraini community i mean you get thousands and thousands of people protesting demanding their rights and you call that vandalism if you seem to forget that there are sixty five or sixty five people actually died in britain from police brutality activists in bahrain insists their protest was peaceful their aim to reach the iconic pole roundabout in the capital manama they say they were met by tanks toxic gas and rubber bullets what we witnessed on the ground as not. the front of. this previously but it's been extended through the. use of poison gas so. mr john is contributing we should see a positive things at the ground what we are seeing today as nothing except it may not just be british tactics bahrain seizing but weapons to government figures show

the u.k. sold over one million pounds worth of rifles and artillery equipment to bahrain from july to september last year long after blood was spilled despite insisting all licenses had been revoked as for yates his contract runs until april by which time he hopes to put in place concrete reforms on this evidence that seems a long way off the bennett party london i had for you this hour here in r.t. cutbacks and chaos down trodden by new spending cuts which they say were only make their dad woes last long into the future. for that the chinese vice president's been touring america this weekend hailing ties between the two countries the u.s. media aren't quite as positive after vilifying the communist country which holds more than a trillion dollars of american dad in his coffers but for the white house business comes before public opinion as art has guided to count reports from washington.

what a better way to celebrate valentine's day than with a partner who lends you money nonstop provides you with cheap labor and host of thousands of your factory to the remarkable development of china u.s. relations america's love for china would be boundless if not for the growing fear of it these guys around for us and the end of it and looking for ways to have it to work to harm us i want to be china i want to go to war with china and make america the most attractive place in the world to do business menacing and vilifying china are typical for political campaigns in america these days like these she sat down and delegate go after death to our floor to do it and that is how our great empire rose again. it's not too late to stop this nightmare it's on r.g.p. even children still made the child in short i need to get

a kidney no sweetie the chinese aren't going to get. there's two billion of them and their economy is getting better with theirs is it taking advantage of their going to be gettin a make yet. with china being the biggest foreign creditor for the us the economic interdependency between the two is raising red flags in the minds of many americans china can very easily just bankrupt america overnight what we've got to do is just dump dollars and trade stories switch to euros radio the current that's here never work except experts agree china would never do that because beijing is just as interested in preserving the value of their us treasury holdings as well as the rich market for their manufactured goods but this it could all make interdependency becomes a headache for washington when china demonstrates policies independent from america's will and the white house has to stifle this content. mind full on smiles

china blocking the u.s. backed resolution on syria is one example russia came under fire from washington for opposing forceful regime change in syria while the u.s. criticism for china was far more muted for taking the same position but the reality is that china or the west have to treat with much more with kid gloves because of the integral relationship in terms of the way that the chinese economy now is so totally woven in with the western one neither country is capable of dominating the other and that the country is going to witness a cold war type situation as china's influence grows president obama has pledged to strengthen u.s. positions in the pacific going as far as the ploy in extra troops to the region this is made some wonder whether the u.s. can reconcile with the situation when it's not dominating. announced this a people at the pentagon by the way the pivoting from that middle east to asia this

means more u.s. interference is cellcept in the sauce china sea military station the starting in norse in australia but maybe in contacts with surely p.m.'s singapore in thailand specially very close allies of us here in southeast asia so the chinese they look at this and they see encircled washington's treatment of this or that country depends on its interest there is nothing surprising about that but it seems with the arena america may find itself hostage to those employees in a situation where you cannot simply dictate its policies in the meantime beijing's economic clout is growing feeling america's fear i'm going to check our reporting from loss of heart. in the via fireworks to replace gunshots on friday when the country marked a year since the start of the uprising that toppled market dopy but post-revolutionary instability is still making life very difficult hundreds of armed militias are roaming the country and the ruling national transitional council appears on

a boat to. there's also evidence of torture and maybe you know supporters maybe as leaders say they are willing to integrate them into the security services by jim brown from stop the war from the winds for now those are just empty words. of the national transitional council that was the body that was particularly by night during the seven months of bombing what he said in. almost as a new message. he said. faced the prospect of either violence suppression of the militias i think civil war and break up you can hear a lot of optimism in saying no we didn't get rid of gadhafi you know that i have this voice comes across nothing has happened there was supposed to integrate the militias into. the supposed national supposed national police force and just by the

very limited newspaper reports you can see that very very few people are going to have this creation of a federation of the western militias a few days ago one hundred militias in the western libya and that really does seem to be a step on the road to the breakup of libya into at least two parts west and east if not more. well greece approved a new austerity bill on sunday in return for a second e.-bay a lot of the cuts were designed to prevent the country from defaulting on its debt although angry greeks worried about their pantheons and jobs responded was more protests on the streets of athens jacob riis reports. the system on the seach m.p.'s drowned out the pleas of tens of thousands of demonstrators amassed within a short passing another round of them popular. the results proved incendiary . that she got a protest vote it was just protesters you.
