accusations over who's behind the weekend of bombings in syria fly between rebels and the government with the massacres claiming saudi arabia and qatar left traces of their involvement at the crime scenes. push revolution the old way still dominates in egypt with critics accusing the new system the strong parliament of turning the constitutional assembly into a farce. if it's ever america's chairs images of the democratic process as washington gets even tougher and it puts the sun and homegrown protests on top stories this hour.

international news and comment live from moscow this is. the syrian regime is pointing the finger at saudi arabia and qatar saying the arab states who are involved in the chain of we can target loss in syria's largest cities the gulf nations have been accused by assad's government of i mean whoever carried out the attacks which left around thirty people dead and dozens injured six on a boy who's in the region as the nicest. the key size involved in this conflict the opposition and the syrian government obviously blaming each other for the twin suicide bombings that took place in damascus and syria second largest media off aleppo where the weekend now opposition sounds that everything has been staged by the syrian government to set up you know deflect that time from its own crackdown on its people while the syrian government obviously disagrees with that and that is that base latest examples violence is yet another advantage that armed gangs terrorist groups are indeed present in the. country that they had being financed

and supplied by major world powers particularly saudi arabia and qatar a high profile arab diplomat said just a bellwether way can that saudi arabia has being sending ammunition to the syrian rebels mainly through jordan just this morning major clashes between gunmen armed gunmen and the syrian army took place in damascus and they're pretty upscale a neighborhood that houses many ambushes and this is really a new development because up until now it democracy was pretty much spared although it opened clashes michel he's journalist and foreign policy strategist for the u.s. based new world strategies coalition has told me on our t.v. he thinks damascus has grounds to saudi arabia and qatar of supporting the recent turn of promised. some of it is probably certain there truly are a minute from now to many and see a prominence in the region there's. the war proxy war going on

between saudi and iran be and i don't know what hard evidence you were it's not unreasonable to conclude that based on the air. in the air coming closer to the man it is an embassy it's. one which is not unlike what the acquisition of the day. we were told and. so there are some reasonable doubt. and sarah marusek a beirut place researcher from sari cuse university says the syrian people are falling victim to saudi arabia and qatar as brutal tactics to push their political agenda these are two states that are very autocratic and they have strong relationships with the west they get a lot of funding militarily from the worst so perhaps it suits them to south. korea not only in syria but you know it's spilling into iraq it's spilling into

jordan and of course it's spilling out here into lebanon. and so they've made it very clear over the past several months that the. regime to tackle that they're willing to do anything that they can to make it happen whether it's bullying in the diplomatic arena or whether it's funding the militant groups in syria and unfortunately the biggest losers of the earth are the syrian people still to come on the program this or not to the academics question the right to life for us is kind of the fault of the u.k. for advocating the use of what they call love to birth abortions. and threats and culture for its floor you have iran's nuclear program as israel's intelligence service admits terror hasn't decided to develop its own weapons. but first egypt has unveiled the line up of a long awaited government panel tasked with creating a more democratic and inclusive constitution but already human rights groups are unhappy claiming islamic factions have banded together in order to dictate just who

gets to write the document and just a year since the revolution hopes for change of all but evaporated in the reports. khalid telling me i could be a poster boy for egypt's revolution young educated a t.v. talk show host and politically active he was among those whose protests don't do square topple the regime of president mubarak last year but like many others who were on the streets with him he doesn't feel things in egypt have changed for the best. who are against mubarak as a person we were against the whole system against oppression and just a little scare so they were programmed illusion their actions should apply the same techniques used by. the ruling military council or staff replaced hosni mubarak who rejections accused of corruption and nepotism economic mismanagement and human rights abuse but a thorough look at scouts policies unveiled

a situation eerily similar if not worse now you get caught those that are suspended would like to have your mission instead of rubber bullets as was the case in the us you get labeled strikers who get referred to military buglers rather than go to the courts in the last two years you have more than thirteen thousand egyptian citizens who got processed through military funerals that's where you more than what one of the during this thirty years of rule the streets of cairo teeming with jurors before the revolution are now considered an see even by those who have lived in the egyptian capital all their lives each can find the police in the street and even if they are they're going on truly help and. you know it's like a kind of they are punishing the people because the they're done that evolution so they're not doing their or their work the they don't care about what happens and deliberately neglecting. every single crime that is happening and they just didn't

choose to turn their back and some believe revolution parties choose to turn their backs on the military council questionable policies seemingly comfortable with the way things are. and sarah a lot of revolutionary forces sided with the military council and started making deals in foreign collisions is given more ground and ignore them in the hands of the most of the political elite and. fixing things not changing. a real possibility now is the revolution entering a second stage this time prompted not just by the young and the educated but by the poor and the unemployed whose numbers have been steadily rising since the military council came to power and the situation is really getting worse and i believe that these people who are really suffering nowadays because they can't even. they can't afford to work to feed their or their families and these people are really they're

going to leave this guy this you know wave of evolution if you kind of what you want to call it like a second wave of evolution but it's going to be a very very aggressive and really really violent and bloody these days that are serious where it's filled with vendors in your cellars idle youth and the food sales but from time to time things get heated up again those who have spent their days and nights here just a little over a year ago barrack regime say their job is far from over and the revolution continues in those courts here cairo. documented buttressed professor of political science and when universities told me that the power grab we're now seeing in egypt is a sign of things to come. the political parties political movements specially religious will try to dominate the political arena through the political system these are the symptoms of what's going to happen again when there is a president all the parties are struggling to get a larger portion of the big cake so the cake is not already baked and they started

struggling over it and the cake is not very tasty because they come in many ways suffering from a big crisis no economic good this you can only crisis might be a curse for those who are going to war and the beginning so it's going to aggravate the bad situation. us police are investigating death threats they receive on twitter after hundreds of protesters marking occupy wall street six month anniversary clashed with offices in new york scenes of police brutality towards peaceful demonstrators made many question america's images the guardian of democratic values and freedoms and is reported explains recently expanded restrictions on the protests only fueling the criticism. i think. it's a country that extols the virtues of liberty unlike no other in the doing ok since september some six thousand seven hundred americans protesting against economic

inequality and corporate greed have been arrested and silence. a police offensive aimed at crushing occupy wall street has succeeded in shattering america's globally marketed brand of freedom but it made people realize aids because of devastating states oh our ability to be in a place to send american and how to challenge that it helped press that it and i think people thought they were freer essentially creates it until it's right here. in america it is a criminal offense to exercise freedom of speech and if then it's deemed nationally significant such as paul. eventually conventions and debates. protesting in areas where the u.s. president or anyone protected by the secret service may be visiting is considered a felony punishable with hefty fines and up to ten years in jail or that federal restricted buildings and grounds improvement act known as h r three four seven is

a lot most americans don't know about but you don't have to do a lot to feel its force we represent people who are charged with felony offenses soley because they put up posters they put up signs asking people to join in demonstrations and they've been arrested by the police detain held on twenty five thousand dollars bail in charge of felons with nato and g eight protest posters popping up nationwide u.s. lawmakers are tightening up recent active men's include prohibiting protests around the white house and broader language to make arrests and prosecution easier i think this is a specific response to sort of the fear that we are actually going to act as if you know like. transforming the political landscape katie davison was arrested twice last year while taking power in legal nonviolent occupy wall street demos in new york i feel like we're in the beginning it works here in government here we sort of

like sprinkled democratic you know like words all over everything as if you know like we have all these freedoms that we actually don't buy new reality where it's here that just about any american engaging in political protests. can be prosecuted unsound wages front to civil liberties and the first amendment and i have my personal personally have been arrested several times protesting there have been misdemeanors and now would be a felony and it's just unconscionable that the congress passed this on experience we don't for it's bickering i want to leave reached consensus when it came to clamping down on constituents only three elected officials voted against expanding federal restrictions on protests while u.s. leaders can't resolve issues like national debt and publicists they're on the same page when it comes to how to handle all the citizens flooding the streets to demand

change and accountability we're not artsy new york. had your website if you don't come from the features you may have missed here on screen plus the latest on the world's top stories now here's some of what we've got lined up for you right now well nato failed to investigate schools of civilian deaths during its military campaign in libya says human rights group amnesty international is satisfied by and this apologies from the lines. plus chaos and violence erupts in greece once again this time it's not about the economy this is rage football fans at faster stadium watch the full footage at all to the local. reacting to being cut off by the swift banking system iran is now threatening to

block the strait of hormuz a major artery in global oil shipping that warning comes as u.s. and israeli intelligence agencies the cia and mossad admit that iran hasn't yet decided to develop nuclear weapons and peter rushton political analyst in his story has told me that he thinks it's ideology not facts driving talk of war against iran but was an extraordinary development particularly in a very detailed story that appeared in the new york times on sunday now those stories don't appear by accident and i think what that reflects is the reaction of professionals in the intelligence community diplomatic and intelligence professionals who once again are having their reports having burwood abused for political and ideological reasons there's a political ideological agenda in washington and tel aviv to an extent here in london as well to willfully misinterpret intelligence to slant or to spin to use the term that's become used recently to spin intelligence in

a direction that forces people on the path to war we saw it in iraq where they were they were there were absolutely disastrous consequences from intelligence the intelligence process being abused and i think we're seeing it now here in iran the culmination of a one term effort by iran's own of us to force the iranian government into a corner to force them into a position where they're left with an invidious towards having to steer of course we on the one hand seeming to be bullied and giving in and appearing weak and on the other hand alone themselves to be provoked and allowing themselves to be forced into a confrontational position. two professors have created a public storm in the u.k. of an article advocating the use. so-called after birth abortions this is merely an academic discussion with the medical journal which published the article defending the debate but for some the idea is a step too far as i would put reports. actually through course was eight months

pregnant when she found out her son would be born with down syndrome even as late as that the only advice she got was to have an abortion doctors tried to persuade her sam's condition would be a struggle not worth living but six years on the only struggle mother and child have had was ignoring that advice i could start all over again and i was choosing not to say and i was treated as something that is something to bear up analyse actually i was treated as if i was to. say. it is very sad to think that they are the people who are giving advice their mothers they have a duty. to everyone a taken to preserve life and a day a lot of them i filled out children aware cause they're big they're not worth saving they're not where happening and that really isn't the case that stereotypes just been taken a whole lot further by two ethicists who argue it's ok to kill babies even after

the born the controversial comments were published by the oxford educated professors in a leading british medical journal they dismiss newborns as potential and not actual persons they say killing them so no different to a normal prenatal abortion but critics branded infanticide it was a speculative case and this that article has been defended on the grounds of free speech but would we accept for example an article advocating that jews or blacks were not persons only potential persons and they could also be killed ask the question is a newborn child any less of equal member. of the human family then a member of a certain race or of one gender or the other what really is the difference the authors of stoked an ethical storm by advocating after birth abortions in all cases

even if the babies are not disabled abortions are only permitted in britain or non-medical grounds during the first twenty four weeks of a pregnancy the authors have now received death threats and say they were merely making an academic discussion they refused to give an interview but it's a lie in the journals editors defend our job is to publish arguments for. issues so that people can live in the long run some of these issues are very complex. person for example i'd look to agree with. the conclusions of the paper i would like to defend people's right to express the views and other people's right to respond to them academic discussion or not the articles prompted outrage not only amongst pro-life groups but also mothers of children with disabilities who declined the option of abortion it was a horrific article it was horrible there definitely seems to be

a trend now it to say that. in these children shouldn't be here it's not something terrible it's not awful just because it's not what you imagined doesn't mean it's not something fantastic because having family now life it's amazing absolutely amazing sam's a member of his local swimming club and plays football to seeing him here it's hard to believe how doctors could say his life would be a burden either bennett see london. twenty minutes past the hour now in the russian capital to some other stories now making international headlines in our world update a man has opened fire outside a jewish school in the french city of toulouse just before lessons were due to begin he killed four people three of them children and injured one teenager the government then fled the scene of the scooter just days ago three paratroopers were killed in two separate incidents the same gun was used in those attacks according to the police. curation centers of open the northern parts of new zealand ready
