and realized everything you thought you knew you don't know i'm sorry it was a big issue. the red cross held to be allowed to evacuated wounded in syria and bring in medicine with moscow adding its employees were a daily cease fire. and over of abuse of human rights groups discovered the u.s. was still sending out again to seize to prisons that have records of torture. and paying for justice with their jobs british construction workers demand their livelihoods back after abiding police were involved in lending them on the illegal block once.

one pm in moscow i match reza good to have you with us here on r t with reports of more violence in syria the red cross is calling for a daily cease fire in the country now with moscow putting its weight behind the move the two hour truce is needed to evacuate the wounded and allow in food and medicine u.n. teams currently in the country for a government led humanitarian mission and they're trying to launch a monitoring operation to help end the crisis human rights watch has accused the syrian opposition of abuses including kidnapping detention and even torture of security force members a recent spate of violence in syrian cities has made the regime point their fingers at saudi arabia and patera saying the arab states were involved in terror of ross for more perspective on this i'm joined by james corbett editor of the pentagon used website corporate report dot com so now the violence has been raging for more than a year and over the weekend we saw two deadly terror blasts i do think we're going to see an increase in the attacks in this country do you think damascus could become another insurgent flashpoint in the middle east. well unfortunately the

cycle of violence shows absolutely no signs of abating and as you point out the weekend terror blasts are a particularly horrifying harbinger of things to come as the fighting does move towards the edge of the syrian capital damascus and does start to affect the people living there and absolutely those terrible killer late worrying because they were of course targeting the air force intelligence and national security buildings extremely high profile and high risk targets that are defended by military assets so it does seem to prove the point that assad has been making for some time that there is clearly some international coordination and arming of these beasts called ragtag rebels who are who are supposedly doing this that would seem to point to that and yet in the western media paradoxically enough you now have many media sources cleaning some sort of conspiracy theory whereby assad is apparently attacking his own buildings in order to garner international sympathy so it's interesting to see how the. true tide tried and tested in true method of false flag

terror suddenly becomes viable when it's something that you can level against a supposed enemy of the west so it's interesting to see what the conspiracy theories may be seeing that one part of ridiculous but also at the same time to think it doesn't necessarily take outside help to tell someone sure insurgents where the intelligence building is does it. it would certainly require a lot more sophistication than any of the attacks that we've seen so far especially considering the fact that military assets are deployed to defend those buildings and and certainly it also points to the arming and equipping of those those insurgents who certainly and demonstrably have been armed through supply routes through iraq by saudi arabia and others and have been so for quite a while now so it just goes to further prove the point out optimistic are you about kofi annan proposals to broker a cease fire in a country. unfortunately i think after we saw the debacle of the arab league

observers mission to syria and what became of that and the resignation of the head of that and all of the things that surrounded that i think it shows that at this point diplomacy isn't really what any of the sides are looking for i think unfortunately it's it's very much a contest right now that's going to be won or lost on on through attacks like the ones we saw on the weekend and and other things like that i don't think at this point that anyone is truly looking for a diplomatic solution so i can't will go much hope for the year you know and it's that little certainly one would hope there would be some sort of peaceful resolution which would return to the western states and the arab states that are backing the opposition do you think they are mainly looking for regime change or do you think that they would settle for a peace deal in the country. well given the incredible reforms that we've seen over the past year that have been proposed by the assad government and to some extent people need to be amnestied a greater nationality and the kurds in the east the media law the draft resolution

a draft constitution all of these things that we've seen i mean there's been more reform in syria in the past year than there has been in the past fifty and if that's not enough to to at least and bring the sides to the table to can start some sort of negotiation and one would have to imagine that nothing will so regime change seems to be absolutely inevitable course that he and the west and others have set their eyes on at this point now finally the opposition leaders have admitted getting some for that some foreign governments are sending weapons and expertise their way how do you how does that sit with a humanitarian. of the west. well i think that gives the lie to the idea that this instrument it's a green at all certainly arming and giving weapons to to the insurgences is absolutely designed for nothing else than to cause more bloodshed and end the idea of doing that in a humanitarian fashion i think it is laughable on its face and once against goes to prove the point that that really diplomacy isn't the end game here the end game is

to get rid of assad and unfortunately we see that from playing out right now so one has to hope that recent initiatives lately there that red cross call for the cease fire on a daily basis and things like that could have some sort of effect but at this point it really seems the cycle of violence is just that's going to be all right james credit from cover up for about conflicts we have thank you. the opposition leader is admitting that they are getting weapons from far from some foreign state stuff here but sharjah authority syria's ambassador to the un says western arab and western and arab nations are backing the rebels trying to capitalize on his country's crisis. the fight for justice purity justice should engage and the government's called for measure that includes the. government is really serious and committed to making the includes the sea of the political process a successful one the opposition is not independent it's making decisions because i

think this is it without getting the green light from washington or these or. these those with the need. to create a deviation they found that what they would be looking for in the it's collision of the situation in syria it's about the people concerned it's about the extent of the i'm not serious about making any assistance to the sea of people the art of harming the syrian national political aims but using these claims against the will of the sea of people. and you can see the interview with bashar jafari syria's u.n. ambassador or more than an hour here on r.t. . the u.s. has continued sending afghan detainees to facilities where prisoners had previously been tortured despite banning such transfers ross july the report comes from the afghan human rights commission assisted by international open society groups

evidence of the new torture has already been uncovered as artie's guy chickie on reports. every year international forces detained thousands of afghans and a good number of those are transferred to afghan interrogators now the report by the afghan independent human rights commission and a new york based open society foundations were built that awaits the detainees after being transferred is often torture and denial of due process the report refers to very specific cases and testimonies and basically asks whether the u.s. is complicit in torture there we're talking about some gruesome reports of abuse detailed in that report beatings suspension from the ceiling electric shocks or actual sexual abuse and other forms of mental and physical abuse which are routinely used to obtain confessions or other information the research primarily focuses on the afghan intelligence agency does business and that it says that the u.s. the business of the u.s. forces is just to hand over those detainees partly years america's old network of

secret prisons in afghanistan has provided ample material for various reports rampant torture and on and off practices have been reported at so-called black side interrogation centers by the way the u.s. government has admitted the existence of those secret centers but the admission the confirmation came after many years of denial so now as the u.s. is in the process of handing over its presence including the infamous prison on blogger mayer to the afghan government though these reports come out about what happens to the detainees after their hand handed over by american forces to their afghan colleagues this pullout operation is becoming increasingly challenging for the united states at times plain embarrassing because of the bad news coming from afghanistan on a regular basis the american soldier who apparently killed sixteen innocent civilians the burning of the holy muslim books u.s. marine you're an aging on dead afghans and more broadly the surge of violence there

rampant opium production which terrorists around the globe feed off yes journalists tend to focus on palm's but in of ghana's that it seems there are more problems than time to report. therefore marquees got each yard in washington iran says it will retaliate for being cut off from swear if the global bank payment network it says it made walkabout royal root in the persian gulf there says are fresh reports suggest the u.s. and israeli intelligence agree tehran isn't developing nuclear weapons but political analyst and historian peter rush in the says that's unlikely to ease pressure on the islamic state what we're seeing at the moment has been is the culmination of a long term a thought by iran's enemies to force the iranian government and will corner to force them into a position where they are left with an invidious troops between normal one having to steer a course between 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 diplomatic and intelligence professionals are having their reports having burwood abused for political and or geological reasons as a political ideological agenda in washington and tel aviv to an extent here in london as well to willfully misinterpret intelligence just slum torture 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. and stay with us here on r t coming your way in a few minutes under a watchful eye wall lection web cams may have uncovered more than intended the

viral from cultural dancing in chechnya to some quite impressive workouts five hundred years worth of life video recorded on one single day was part of electing the next leader of russia where cameras were installed at all polling stations to monitor any possible fraud but the relatively few violations were obvious shadowed by the ins taman provided some have already doubts the election the most expensive live show in russia's history the system cost half a billion dollars. the most advanced software to the most remote regions of russia if not for the elections it could take another five to ten years now we can do video conferences scholars can be lectured by diverse professors from russia and abroad. that's just one of many ideas about how to use the two hundred fifty thousand cameras the interior ministry is investigating

a police station in cause i'm after a man died from serious injuries sustained in custody a string of such incidents gives way to the argument that there can never be too much money training and what russians may still be undecided who they want to keep an eye on they definitely want to control not entertain the all seeing eye of the outcome will make things harder to hide under the carpet and russia's police stations are somewhere critics have argued for a while need to come under greater scrutiny but equally after several people died recently probably received while in prison or. where you're proposing or suggest we move cameras from polling to police stations they should be installed in preliminary coast to be stills directed on policeman on duty and in the rooms were suspects are questioned and would not violate the rights of those detained as their faces would be hard to see but it will save the detainee themselves from police

other. we've. reported throughout the day here on our team time now to check in with the stock markets currency and commodity prices kate is joining us with all the latest business news what's going on yeah that's right well let's start with europe if i may actually exist so many sentiments coming out of that part of the world today and it's the mining stocks that await after seen executive people listen to china's demand for iron ore flattering that's causing concerns in the region also also under pressure as well with b.m.w. now around four and a half percent in negative territory and that's all unofficial at china so shaken of carmakers said. their four cars in twenty twelve starts boring investors banks are also suffering the inflation figures coming out of the u.k.

i just about ten minutes time actually now if that's how you it's looking at this hour if we stay closer to home for a minute or two we'll have a look at the russian and i believe they're heading even the internet if it territory this hour which check out the individual share of days as he's suffering the most we've got. down the company is reportedly now in for a twenty six percent price hike in october is also falling as well that's also around a quarter of this is a net profit rose of nine point five percent last year but that's in question accounting standards upon us gobos a different color for them they're doing rather well it's one of the best performers that's often dropped its plans to me to love that the decision comes after the laser receiving approval from russia's foreign investment commission the company how they plan to list their phone and the sense they can love raising

a potential seven hundred million. don't let's. stick with the subject of gold for now have a look at the prices as you can see the reason for further further into the red this hour there's actually concerns over in india the biggest consumer of gold because there's a tax or import going on there and therefore they've got people up in arms about it and therefore they're trying to reduce their buy of it by thirty five percent so that's a concern as so far as well this is doing this hour we look at the oil prices they are actually down at this hour as you can see prices remain strong relative well there's been reports of i don't find a raise in the u.s. at the moment the obama administration has got some real criticism for this research more news to come out today and that's causing concerns about local to mars because the another hike in those prices for a short indeed if we look at the currents is we can see that the dollar is

appreciating now and that's not just against the euro but against most of the major currencies at this hour as you can see it is a mixed reviews for the ruble it hardens a dollar against the euro this hour so as i said we're going to be monitoring it the european markets the russian markets and all those commodities as well so join me about fifty five minutes with more. with the end of the boer war and the going away of the soviet union many people

thought that nuclear weapons facility and. the risk is not zero that something might be going off by mistake special of nuclear weapons on hair trigger alert. focus of the victims using a desert three ball as an actor but you know if you keep spinning a trillion dollars a year on weapons of venture you're going to blow everybody up you you know people are dying from these weapons but until we actually see it people don't wake up to nuclear weapons or a bill. that represents all the firepower of the second world war this second sound is the equivalent fire power of the world's nuclear arsenal today.
