we've long live video for your media drug free video gun to our keep calm. shall we voices here and call for an all bloody war against the regime as an international envoy seems to be gauche the peace talks between the government and opposition in. the west electoral system is under scrutiny as experts claim serious flaws and voter registration for the terry of the upcoming presidential vote in question. as debt ridden greece staggers within grasping distance of its eurozone rescue cash soaring suicide rates just the public is already bearing the brunt of cuts.

this is already coming to you live from moscow i'm maria joshua welcome to the program the joint u.n. arab league envoy to syria kofi annan will seek talks between certain syria's opposition and the government when he travels to damascus on saturday and battle leader of the shot a lawsuit has signaled his willingness to talk but some of his key opponents have angrily dismissed out of hand calls to fight on against the regime aren't going away but as maria financial reports from syria it's not always clear where these calls are coming from. one spew a day of prayer friday has become one of the fines for the arab spring countries in syria this new tradition has gone even further with activists online giving every front its own very special name because through flecked the opinion of the street or the syrian people. in to also send

a message to the external world of all of the syrian situation or the opinions of same people but the days of names like dignity and honor from last march have come to an end with calls to arm the rebels and the president to come in the main message from those protesting against the regime so a lot of torture people saw a lot of killing people saw their families are being killed in front of their eyes so i mean this is just natural to ask for killing is accusing the president of killing many however argue that these hostile messages are a tool to provoke move parlance in the steering the country toward civil you this way trying to. affect. people of my people think. this is the way to approach syrians because syrians want to convert part of care and violence would think so many ideas like dignity or

symbolically from the history of syria and of course you can read some good purposes although anti-government protests here in syria have a very spontaneous nature of the rough few things that they usually known before the day friday the place was the time after the prayers and even the cause they're gathering for and the slogans they're chanting i usually made public in advance and this thing changes order with the basis so exactly behind these messages but it is now the common subject among people in general not just on t.v. but i don't know specific source i heard from the people around me my friends but actually television. some yes. well and i'm and i don't know there are some people who name every friday but it doesn't interest me i think you should ask them if you are home i think i heard something on t.v. the t.v.

the trail led us to a website called syrian revolution it is here that the name of the coming friday is usually published supposedly after people vote for it it said it represents all of the station groups strangely enough the syrian national carbonation committee the opposition within the country say they have nothing to do with a site oh another place where poaching is carried out cannot be accessed from syria of course the water is electronic water and anybody sure can is real or not it's. while it's not clear who really stands behind the idea some names like china is killing us or no veto to just an agenda that's not looking to compromise on sick . a peaceful solution to the conflict a little was once friday called syrian national council represents me trying to change people's mentality for the for prayers and god when people feel themselves

has become a d. for violence now and eventually people on the street weak and divided with the rhetoric growing stronger every friday many here are starting to question who is really pulling the strings trying to escalate the violence. damascus. tell you now where the interim prime minister has thanked the u.s. for what he called tremendous support in overthrowing moderate out me but the new leader in authorities are facing an uprising of their own from a group of powerful tribal year or so have declared partial autonomy in east of the country what it will analysts pepe escobar told r.t. that washington is likely to take little interest in political developments in post gadhafi leave. we have a nato puppet in tripoli. nato as we call it not will start up he's saying that he's going to intervene in so he's going to be what you know going to look at that the two point zero is going to intervene because the people of

syria like up all over again because they are splintering to try to see mr libya has theme antagonizing a central government tripoli for decades if not centuries and this is a second what's happening because of the sprinter nato doesn't care of course the u.s. the brits and the french don't care as long as they have contracts which truthfully alliance between especially against between a washer done. in paris and the g.c.c. they wanted to take over and then distribute this story and who cares about the future of libya as a democracy is going to be war warning shoots tribal feuds this is going to cool for ever. sarah marcy ok beirut based researcher for syracuse university says that what's happening in media now under a western backed government is exactly what prompted foreign military intervention in the first place the country is in chaos right now it's heartbreaking and

outrageous as president obama said about the situation in syria no this iteration in libya is the way we hear about militias torturing people who are suspected of supporting qaddafi in the past and there was a hideous story today about someone's fingers getting cut off because he was horsewhipped on the hand repeatedly over and over again until his fingers were severed these are crimes against humanity that are happening in libya and there is no outcry by the international community the same international community that called for a no fly zone in libya to save civilians to save people's lives so really it's a very dangerous situation we don't know who has what capacity right now to attack other people in other tribes and so it's very difficult political solution is required for this certainly not a military one. and you're watching r.t. coming to live from moscow still ahead of the program no word to hide british

authorities he continue online activity of the nation so find out just how much the taxpayer is coughing up to be spied on. plus pray for health medical tourists are given the red carpet treatment in india the sick and destitute look on helpless. the u.s. is rarely slow to criticize the election process in other countries including russia presidential vote last week but in a few months america will have to elect a new leader and using a voting system which has a few flaws of its own i just explains one of these men could be president just eleven months from now this present you going to find president as president i'd say you've got is somebody who can actually get it done in washington as americans head to the polls in two thousand and twelve determined to keep part in democracy millions of votes may end up rejected thrown away com election night about two point two million votes were lost in two thousand and eight. problems even better

is the director of elections initiatives at the pew center on the states he says america's nineteenth century paper based in voter registration system has left the nation's registration rolls lead by a rooney as errors we found roughly twenty four million records that are no longer of today mostly because people who've and some cases because people have died we found fifty one million eligible voters who aren't on the rolls but one in four of the old citizens united states a new report on america's quote inaccurate costly and inefficient voting system also found nearly two million dead individuals listed as eligible u.s. voters and nearly three million citizens registered in more than one state we're seeing voting problems during the two thousand and ten midterm elections resulted in a reported sixty thousand votes being tossed out. not counting officials saying the misuse of new electronic optical scan machines was to blame yet again that because

price could likely be the integrity of america's free and fair elections we should assume that every citizen that is eligible to vote can vote and if there's some problem on election day there should be some way that they can correct so if they're not told i don't see you in the book even though you are a citizen even though you are eighteen your vote isn't going to count concerning russia back in december u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton said the same thing following russia's parliament reelection the russian people like people everywhere deserve the right to have their voices heard and their votes counted and come this november it all starts with you american citizens will be counting on us leaders to stand by their words for you know r.t. new york your coming u.s. presidential elections are also the main focus of debate and crossed are coming up later today people of el grill says guests about the prospect of republican party

nominees rivaling barack obama and how important a state of the u.s. economy will be to the final outcome. republicans have more money even god if they can produce anyone that is even my bill you track too for i mean obama looks like a rock star next to these guys. i think a lot of the really strong viable republican candidates are waiting for the next election cycle i think twenty sixteen you're going to be see some really good candidates but right now the economy is such a mess that no matter who is elected in two thousand and twelve is going to have a very hard fight on their hands and could be committing political suicide everybody wants to. use it a couple of times focus on the economy focus on the economy the economy is a mess it's sort of again it's worth noting that the economy is picking up there is in order to. know if it's a true i disagree with you there i mean when we have sixteen trillion dollars in

debt that is the economy is not recovering sixteen trillion dollars in debt is not acceptable. in the u.k. the chances are you are being watched it has more c.c.t.v. cameras per personnel most any other nation on earth and now the government is planning to cast its interests of i over online activity phone calls and text messages all under the guise of an anti terror law and as a case i've abandoned reports of a taxpayer who may well pay in more ways than one. soon you could be watched everywhere you go in the u.k. even where the cameras can't see you all your e-mails texts and phone calls will be monitored under a new anti terrorist spy plan the government will know which websites you visit it will even sleep on your private facebook messages no matter who you are all your personal data will be stored for a year in a massive surveillance operation privacy campaigners condemn this is the first step

toward the government taking control of the incident the only place in the world has got that kind of regulation is china i'm sorry but britain is not child of britain's already one of the most watched societies in the world the number of c.c.t.v. cameras is estimated at nearly two million now the government wants to monitor all electronic communication as well including social media taking surveillance to a level never seen before just what you see in calls and messages won't be kept but the government will know exactly who you speak to when you do it and where you are it will be stored by broadband and mobile companies but security services will have real time access at the click of a button secretly living your life with you digital rights groups say it will leave people living in fear of big brother but the problem here is really that diddy's intrusive and the sort of places where you can see that might be useful could be it

or it could be anything could be tax it could be to force it could be copyright infringement. and terrorism and serious crime are a tiny subset of the possibilities that you could use this information for it's the ones being watched who are paying for it to cybersecurity experts predict it will cost taxpayers over a billion dollars to be spied on even then there's no guarantee they'll be safe from other prying eyes any person who guarantees. absolute security isn't it if you're dealing with information which might be required. by law enforcement and that means that quite a lot of people need to be and. i suspect most of the time is going to be quote unquote secure. there also it's highly likely that there will be large scale failures as well if you're typing in private but now the legislation still has to

go through parliament the previous government's wish for a surveillance where it was fought off in two thousand and eight over fears of data safety the greater fear this time we're told this is a threat to national security it events like the olympics the government's justification so it may not be long before what you thought was personal reaches a much wider audience i didn't it see london remember you can always log on to your car to check out more news stories and current online for you right now are my wall street protests started by computer screens and new video games developed by programmers in california discover how you can play. a group of grannies. and russia from next year visions i am or about the band

on our website. there's you know soon as miranda and i know. this is not cold those are not patriotic people who don't like the american flag but this song tells it otherwise . their words through song as it is we will stand forever as a nation under the flag. meaning the red white and blue stripes. a disease which is trying to please the quotes on the outside. but their heart is scream of anger. tired. of all kinds of struggles and they allow the truce. to allow these things to stay there choose alcohol or the choose drought. this is that people buy at

a local store here and they. they open it and they fill it with water over there from the stick it and then and then i think they drink it because it has to because it has alcohol in it and so the answer they drink it is actually hairspray. could lead to live there now he. nobody could. know my family. doc a joke well those who try nobody could stay the. course to me i'll be one. well. technology innovation all the developments around russia we've got the future covered.

i'll go back to watching our t.v. israel has asked the united states for weapons that could be crucial in a strike on iran's underground nuclear facilities the shopping list including bunker buster of bombs and refueling planes was handed over by benjamin netanyahu during his visit to washington earlier this week the israeli prime minister said no decision on military action has been made but signaled he was running out of patience for other measures to work stressed the need for diplomacy and a chance of high level nuclear talks with iran u.s. defense secretary however admitted washington is still considering military action saying america has a better chance of striking iran successfully former reagan administration official dr craig roberts says amid all this ramped up war rhetoric titian's godden there's no actual proof iran is seeking to build a bomb this next year or that

a room as is done. the combative taser estimate the united states government that is unanimous opinion of all sixteen intelligence agencies is that iran abandon its nuclear weapons program i take there said in two thousand and three that would be man years ago what the united states is manageable is that a red give up its rights as a signatory to the nonproliferation treaty if you say that learn the trade in and agree to inspectors you or you have the right to. nuclear energy and the united states is insisting that iran has to be excluded. from having nuclear energy because the united states says there's some time around might decide to make a box a little thing this is just made up this contrived we've got. through for

nuclear origins they didn't sign the treaty they didn't pull it for a day and they're all in good standing here i'm states they receive all kinds of eighty eight me there is a fax there and india. meanwhile some reports suggest the u.s. has already offer it as are all advanced weaponry but only to persuade it not to attack until after america's next presidential election. for details and expert opinion on the ship. greece has finally read a deal with private investors which will allow it to stave off a default on its debts the agreement is part of a broader package needed to release bailout money from the e.u. but even if the worst case scenario has been avoided greeks still have to live with the financial sacrifice that's been forced on down i think some reports. curriculum

brucey threatens to through her so from her office window in germantown athens she and her husband have had their salaries cut of debts and a mortgage they can't pay and now they've just learned their jobs are under threat she was eventually told down after many hours on the ledge. this is where the wrong person who worked at this organization tried to provide housing support for people on low incomes or they did until two weeks ago when the government announced this place was closing all over seven hundred staff here because no jobs because there's a frantic meetings in corridors and offices distressed workers trying to find out what will happen to them or to this organization has been going strong for sixty years and it's not fair to send them money to other departments they want to take our money to cover other holes they want to take money for other necessities put all our families will be unemployed if you could save greece ok but there's no way

that money will fill the gap with the old so stacked against them some desperate greeks even contemplate ending it all. and this is the only phone line in the country for steady case had to stop in the line ten eighteen is greece's single volunteer run charity suicide prevention line and two thousand and eleven calls here doubled calls like one the to leno picked up from a mother standing on the fifth floor of a building threatening to jump she had a family member with it it was hand counts and receive the benefit and this benefit benefit was about because and she was about to lose her job and said there's nothing they can do what can i do to help what can i do to help myself included had been suffering more charity too short of money its volunteers unsure of their future although many greeks grudgingly accept the need for austerity they're

adamant that m.p.'s should combine compassion with the cuts the main problem now the funding strategy because this one's the one thing it's like three people say this side of the problem of the market in the house for everyone agrees that greece's road to recovery will be long and painful but greater and greater numbers of greeks worried that the debt the country is in. good course they're from leeds much more than just money. let's not take a look at some other stories from around the world a british canada tire hostages have been killed during a failed joint rescue team in nigeria u.k. energy or in special forces say the two have been executed before they reach them the man i've been working on a construction project in the country's north were abducted last may their kidnappers claims to have links with al qaida. pakistani authorities have charged the some of the logs with widows was illegally entering and living in the country

one of the women is reported to be from yemen and other from saudi arabia while the nationality of the third remains unknown but we're going to face up to five years in prison if convicted the son of man was killed last may when u.s. forces raided his residence in the pakistani city of abbottabad. in our food edge of a pot of dolphins stranded on a brazilian beach has become an internet hit about thirty dolphins caught in strong currents were washed up on the shore locals and tourists came to the aid of turning them around and sending them back out to sea as events like this are surprised it's extremely rare. all the kids outside in his hospitals are just one side of a huge gap between rich and poor and matty accuse the government of being more worried about attracting medical tourists and helping patients at home our history a shooter takes a look. it's lunchtime at its government hospital in delhi and hundreds of indians

are camped outside the medical facility waiting hoping and praying that they might get inside. phil collins thing hasn't been working for three months and claims that he was that close to have an operation hernia today but now doctors are telling him that its operation will cost almost three times more than he initially thought i remember. coming to ames hospital supposed three months early in the morning with an empty stomach for different kinds of tests are used to come in the morning to get an appointment time you had four or five in the evening now i can't get it done it's impossible but. what are your overview of things story is that you need every year millions of indians wait outside of government hospitals hoping to get the treatment they need according to the supreme court indians below the poverty line are supposed to get access to free health care and government hospitals but that leaves many indians who are technically above the poverty line but still extremely poor with no affordable health care. there is

a severe shortage of doctors in india with some study indicating that there could be a point six doctors for every thousand people in india compared to two point six in the united states that means doctors that private hospitals can charge a premium for their services. on the other side of cali the sidewalks outside this private hospital are clear of line. arise recovering from his operation and pay thirty dollars a day for a bed in its private hospital he says the extra cost it's worth it it's easier to you treated here and also i get the medicine on time many think the indian government is actually widening the gap between rich and poor in their ability to access to health care by offering tax incentives and subsidized land to private hospitals in the hope of attracting medical tourists from abroad many indians believe however the government should focus on getting health care to with own people birth. to go to a state or government has really succeeded in putting in the number of doctors

there is there is no i won't go that far more resources are required significant bootleg and best of use in translating those resources and good action. as moonies for ra is well on his way to a full recovery though paul thing is losing hope experts say it's down to the government to take care of the poor in india society but as long as the country's public health spending remains among the lowest in the world it is due to lack behind preassure either new delhi india. and a reminder our top stories is just a few minutes away so stay with us for that.

to a substantial degree and one form or another socialism has spread the shadow of human regimentation over most of the nations of europe. and the shadow is an approaching upon hold of her. early early twenty first century military bases a network of military bases all around the forms of the empire that the united states is trying to build that's astonishing most americans have no idea there are more than a quarter of a million more than two hundred fifty thousand u.s.

troops stationed on these bases all around us. we don't have power bases in america we don't have any british base we don't have any korean base we don't have any french bases or you know we just all american bases in crossed our bases of on it or the noise is wrong nor is it doesn't bother us at all because they're our bases but for other people it's almost like a cancer here for the speed of a day since the into world war two the space is a bit. rich here survive a safe and secure environment for everybody. the questions the a thing else is to get everything you needed.
