from the world wide web to a nationwide war extremist opposition groups in syria turned to the internet for encourage a bloody battle with the country while the u.n. arab envoy seeks a diplomatic solution to. america's call for an overhaul of their electoral system ahead of this year's presidential poll following a report that found millions of duplicate seized and al juggle voters. and events ministers have given the green line to a thirty five billion euro bailout secure out that deal with creditors but it's no remedy for the people in greece where draco nian austerity measures are sending

suicide rates sky high. it's seven pm here in moscow this is r t coming to live with me and he said no way our top story syria's exiled opposition has once again rejected a call for dialogue with the also of regime saying the crisis requires a military solution diplomatic appeal for talks this time came from the u.n. arab and boy kofi annan who sets were arriving to mass chaos over the weekend and while the battle on the ground continues the war has moved on the line authorities reaffirmed ocean are reports. i think. once putin. friday has become one of the fines cross the arab spring countries in syria this new tradition has gone even further with activists online every friday it's

a very special name because they reflect the opinion of the street or the syrian people and to send a message to the external world of all of the syrian situation i mean 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 kill the president becoming the main message from those protests and against the regime so a lot of torture people saw a lot of killing people and 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 coming many however argue that these hostile messages are told to provoke more foreigners in the steering the country. is. trying to. affect. people might. think.

this is the way. to go syrians want to connect to fear and violence. or some of the history of syria and of course some proportions although the government protests here in syria have a very. few things that they usually know before the day the place cost the time also the prayers and even the cause they're gathering for and the slogans they're chanting i usually make public. and this thing changes although with a basis. so exactly who is behind these messages. it is now a common subject among people in general not just on t.v. but i don't know specific source and they were there i heard from the people around me my friends but actually television. some yes i.

will animate i don't know there are some people who name every friday but it doesn't interest me i think you should ask them to go ahead i think i heard something on 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 voted for it it said its fifty cents all of the groups strangely enough the syrian national college admission committee your position within the country say they have nothing to do with this site also another place with voting is carried out cannot be accessed from syria of course the water is electronic voting. and you've got to be sure that the kids real or not it's honest or not while it's not clear who really stands behind the idea some names like china is killing us or. suggest an agenda that's not looking to compromise and seek a peaceful solution to the conflict

a little to do was once very cold syrian national council represents me to try to change people's mentality for the for god when people feel themselves it's become would be for a moment's notice and eventually people on the street weak and why even with the rhetoric growing stronger every friday many here are starting to question who is really pulling the strings trying to escalate the violence if an option r.t. damascus. the libyan our country's interim prime minister is in washington and purely for u.s. help to drive out the remnants of the old regime that does the new libyan authorities face challenges as a whole in the country together with powerful tribal leaders already declaring family are our enemy from the capital tripoli but it will and less pepe escobar however thinks washington is no longer interested in the country's political future . we have a little puppet you creepily you start for. me too as we call you know it was tough

oh cool job he's saying that he's going to intervene in so he's going to be what it took up to two point zero it's going to intervene against the people of syria like up all over again because they. splintering to try to see mr libby has been antagonizing the central government tripoli for decades if not centuries and this is a second what's happening because of the sprinkler nature doesn't care of course the us the brits and the french don't care as long as the contracts which truthfully alliance between especially against between washington. in paris and that you see below took the call for and think this triggered the spoils and who cares about the future of libya is a democracy it's going to be. war war. tribal feuds this is going to google for ever. sarah marusek of beirut based researcher for

syracuse university says the new libya doesn't change much from the gadhafi era state the only difference is the international community is now turning a blind eye to crimes against humanity there. 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 about way we hear about militias torturing people who are suspected of supporting qaddafi in the past and there was a hideous story about someone's fingers getting cut off because he was horsewhipped on the head 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 and other tribes and so it's very difficult and a political solution is required for the certainly not a military one. coming up here on our t.v. nowhere to hide u.k. citizens are being launched by big brother as the government aims to snoop on the private lives of the british public like never before. and the health care catastrophe in india as the ever increasing gap between rich and poor leaves scores of sick without any hope of recovering. the first with eight months to go the race for america's presidencies are already in full swing with republican rivals locked in a bitter struggle for the nomination but alongside smear campaigns and dirty politics is another problem a somewhat archaic voting system that disregards millions of votes. and i reports there's a growing demand for a revamped election process. one of these men could be president just eleven months

from now this president even if i'm president as president i'd say you got is somebody who can actually get it done in washington as americans head to the polls in two thousand and twelve determined to take part in democracy millions of votes may end up rejected or thrown away calm election night that some point two million votes were lost in two thousand a voter registration problems backer is the director of elections initiatives at the pew center on the states he says america's nineteenth century paper based a voter registration system has left the nation's registration rolls pleaded by errors we found roughly twenty four million records that are no longer up to date mostly because people have moved in some cases because people have died and we found fifty one million eligible voters who aren't on the rolls but one in four of the 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 record sixty thousand votes being tossed out not county officials say the misuse of new electronic optical scan machines was to blame yet again that because price would likely be the integrity of america's free and fair elections we should assume that every citizen that is eligible to vote can go and if there is 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 and. everywhere deserve the

tired of negativity and people get tired of being angry i have already started and he attributed or i want he hasn't achieved anything yet and he had let me do what you were acting when he's done nothing if you're not also here other than fact and you. ever feel like someone is watching you well if you're your case it is then the government is attempting to step up its public surveillance policy even snooping on your personal e-mails despite c.c.t.v. cameras are already a major factor of u.k. life there are no plans to store personal data including information from social networking sites as artie's armor bennett reports it's the taxpayer who could be footing the bill. soon you could be watched everywhere you go in the u.k. even where the cameras can't see you all your emails 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 snoop 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 towards the government taking control of this let go of the only place in the world has got that kind of regulation is china i'm sorry but britain is not china 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 the monitor all electronic communication as well including social media taking surveillance to a level never seen before just what you say 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 the digital rights groups say it will leave people living in fear of big brother but the problem here is really that good is intrusive and the sort of places where you can see that might be useful could be good 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'll 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. you absolute think you are a team is an idiot and if you are dealing with information which might be required short notice by law enforcement then that means that quite a lot of people need to be involved although i suspect most of the time it is going

to be quote unquote secure. they're all thorough it's highly likely that there will be large scale failures as well if you're typing into eatings private for now the legislation still has to go through parliament previous governments wish for a surveillance where it was fought off in two thousand and eight over fears of data safety the greater fear this time with told is the threat to national security with 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 either bennett's artsy london. on our website arjun dot com you can find plenty more news from the u.k. including why the country's politicians need some looking out for themselves some british m.p.'s seem to be drunk not only on power but this as alcohol related scandals in westminster become greater for complex in the top like. us

downtown africa she and her husband have had their salaries cut debts and a mortgage they can't pay and now they've just learned the jobs are under threat she was eventually talked down after many hours on the ledge. this is where ron barassi worked with this organization to try 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 could lose their jobs because of frantic meetings in corridors and offices distressed workers try to find out what will happen to them or today based organization has been going strong for sixty years and it's not fair to send their 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 all employed if we 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 that's dedicated to stopping them line ten eighteen is greece's single volunteer run charity suicide prevention line in two thousand and eleven calls here double calls like one the to learn or picked up from a mother standing on the fifth floor of a building threatening to jump she had i family member. it was handled and receive the benefit and this benefit then if it was about to become outs and she was about to lose her job and said there's nothing i can to what can i do to help what can i do to help myself it's in there that i don't want to suffer and more the charity to do is short of money it's gone tears unsure of their future although many greeks grudgingly accept the need for austerity they are adamant that m.p.'s should combine compassion with the cuts the main program is the funding strategy

because this one is the one thing it's like three people it's a bill for the economy of the market and the house for everyone agrees that greece is road to recovery will be long and painful but greater and greater numbers of greeks worry that the debt the country is in could cost their families much more than just money from boxing party. but the u.s. has reportedly proposed giving israel advanced weaponry in return for television delaying a potential strike on iran bunker buster bombs a long range refueling planes were allegedly on offer during benyamin netanyahu is the latest visit to washington the israeli pm said his country hasn't decided to attack yet but signaled that patience with tehran was wearing thin barack obama in turn stressed the need to let diplomacy and economic sanctions run their course is coming following an agreement between iran and several international powers to restart talks on the route of leds nuclear weapons program reza rushing from the

national iranian american council says it's crucial for regional stability that israel's war like cries are muscle. after three decades of little or no communication between iran and the united states there's no question that it's going to be a very challenging task that we all sides are facing and you know i think being on the precipice of war has to really focus the attention of various decision makers in various capitals and. focus them specifically on the need for all parties to compromise and there's a difference between what the united states and the international community are asking for and what the israelis would prefer and these negotiations are going to be an opportunity to figure out how to try to square that circle i think it's safe to say that any honest and objective analyst would agree that iran will not give up its nuclear program in its entirety but it will agree to limitations that are monitored america by the international atomic energy agency the clemency isn't supposed to produce instant success you're supposed to invest in a process over a sustained period of time where confidence building measures that are reached in the interim can pursue a tape trust building even when i was serving in the u.s.

government the israelis were one of a handful of countries that were never really interested in giving diplomacy a fair shake and that's one of the many reasons why it's really interesting on a line with the obama administration they've done a very good job of trying to take actions that would lessen the possibility of diplomacy being successful but the obama administration understands better than anyone right now what's at stake he's taken multiple steps publicly and privately to push back and i'm hoping that we're going to see more of that continue because if it doesn't they're going to continue to try to believe. in other news the plane that carried polish president lech kaczynski to his should never have taken off that's according to a new report released by warsaw investigators say there wasn't proper communication between all the bodies responsible for the flight as a result of plane was scheduled to arrive at an airport not listed as one of the whole it's available landing spots the paper also said the defense ministry and the air force had been in sort of the aircraft was ready for service and the pilots training program hadn't changed since the one nine hundred seventy s.
