the head of the u.n. says the syrian regime is still cracking down on the opposition despite pledges from damascus to cease military activity within days. self declared coup leaders in mali agree to step down and civilians pressure from neighboring countries two weeks of the truth. and critics lash out at the u.s. for trying and sentencing as adults cruel.

you're watching out a lot from moscow welcome to the program the head of the u.n. severely criticized the syrian government for ongoing violence in the country and ki-moon says next week's cease fire date is no excuse for continued killing in the run up to the deadline fresh shelling the city with dozens of alleged fatalities in the past twenty four hours and the mask blames the bloodshed on terrorists i didn't know that turkey south of the gulf states the u.n. security council wants both sides of the course it was a complete cease fire in place within five days and specified further measures but some observers think u.s. not syrian opposition has to committed to regime change to give up now. if you have a ceasefire where the rebels are under that cease fire and say ok we're we're and we're no longer going to engage in violence against this regime then what was the point of starting the rebellion in the first place and and so it's very likely that

the rebels are going to use any kind of a cease fire to consolidate their position and continue with their goal a u.s. for example is pressuring the assad regime to relinquish power they're doing it under this are a democracy in freedom well this is just your partner see we know that the us loves dictatorships they just sent one point three billion dollars to the gyptian dictatorship they support the dictatorship in bahrain because of the u.s. military base there what's involved here in syria is a dictatorship that is not pro u.s. and so the u.s. sees this as an opportunity for regime change if we can get rid of this dictator and install a pro u.s. military dictator like in egypt or in other other places around the world and the u.s. will be satisfied but make no mistake about it this is not some glorious cars on the part of the west you in stark and a pro freedom pro democracy regime this is about empire is it always this.

mollies a committee does have agreed to step down and hand power to civilian rule in return for an end to sanctions imposed by the country's worried neighbors as part of the agreements the fifteen state west african course will lift trade and fuel bans and ground amnesty to the engines of three is common interest we can assume the role of an interim president the organizer elections within forty days mr stable democracies in the region he was plunged into crisis with immediately seized power and top of the president last month unhappy with the way he was dealing with insurgency taking advantage of the chaos rebels in the north korean independence area calling as a word with. me since the rebels who are in the dream of a so hard and could scupper for it and. there is an element. and i think that is an aspect that one has to look at what is happening in the

vacuum the spring the in the arab world in tunisia in egypt and so on class also the nato attacks that took place in libya that has opened a pandora's box where you lot of a lot of soldiers who were working in the gadhafi regime in libya have come back to their own countries the rebels have effectively you know got rid of an elected president but at the same time the rebels themselves do not have very clear credentials if you like the elements who are supposedly trying to liberate the people themselves have very precarious very colorful very dangerous background. more news and stories can be found at any time on our website r.t. dot com as a taste of what's online right now you're guilty as charged colonel gadhafi is influential son saif al islam faces the most serious accusation managed to impact

we want to present. something else. america's prisons are overflowing with many who are kept behind bars or just children thousands of youth tried as adults in the u.s. every year and some are given life sentences in the country's harshest since anyone found themselves becoming victims of sexual violence and suicide is what reports. authorities in western pennsylvania have charged a revenue year old jordan brown as an adult the boys will have a line at trial together in adult court of late but his sentence is also the length of his life they're not old enough to drive drink or go but in america kids as young as seven years old can be tried as adults when you hold the youth accountable the same manner and fashion in which you hold an adult that's just not right and it's not there michael can't knows what it's like to be a kid locked up in an adult prison you never know what went on my daughter and i

knew you so you can be fair and like what's going to happen to me he was locked up for the first time when he was twelve years old here at oak hill juvenile correctional facility ok it was not wasn't and neither was the design it's a rehabilitation we designed for punishment you know having to run the game and it is a pain for. like most kids that serve time as a juvenile in the us he got into trouble again at seventeen he was charged with armed robbery as an adult he says for a kid being in an adult prison is a constant struggle to survive they know why we come off the bus and you don't have nobody to want you just so they pull you when reality trying to get a favor out of you father section where you know and you if they can you know and you become someone's. person was spared from sexual abuse but many kids aren't so lucky and in fact one in five victims of sexual violence in jails and prisons are

under the age of eighteen youth and all facilities are thirty six times more likely to commit suicide than those in the juvenile system on any given day in america ten thousand children are held in adult jails and prisons most of them have never been convicted of a crime and kids are fair game for solitary confinement cam says for five months he spent twenty three and a half hours per day locked up alone i could have been crazy and if there were. just i wouldn't i want to know from the roof would have known critics slam the practice of putting kids in adult jails as cruel and unusual punishment or less capable of understanding the consequences of their behavior. is incomplete and that's why the supreme court struck down the death penalty for juveniles in two thousand and five but today the united states is the only country that sentences kids to life without parole it was viewed as

a substitute to the ultimate penalty there are now twenty five hundred inmates that were sentenced to die in jail as children this is a peculiarly american phenomenon in which we tend to believe that harsher the penalty is the greater the public safety payoff kids should instead be rehabilitated says little bow that's the focus on washington d.c. is newly opened new beginnings now walking into a classroom at new beginnings is much different from walking into a classroom at other juvenile detention facilities that this is considered to be a model facility it's a system based on rewards rather than punishment and experts say that this is that is much more effective at rehabilitating you to become productive members of society but unfortunately places like this and the u.s. are rare here kids are given a second chance but in most prisons throughout the country remain america's forgotten children hope for the future gone at an early age in washington liz wall

hundred fifty million euro castille an airport be one of the most i catch it today it stands largely unused. and from madrid to barcelona there are more stark reminders of excessive spending triggering public anger we'll hear everybody because that's what he said. he said before the last chance he said nobody will be sick out but at the daily show and then you know sit everybody can be kicked out because of all these though these new low and we seeing him later say what us. here is the even among the crowds of doubt there is an after time for steroids he programs laws where these parts of plays and from the tens of thousands of people are gathered here in madrid alone and across the rest of the country many think to be made in the wrong place we don't know what to do so we resorted to following

whatever it is that the line that all of us the faith without paying attention to the fact that maybe those of us have different interests with them have our national interests at heart but some don't think government policy is to blame mariano's familiar with austerity if is a sports ability should be shouldered by the individual. everyone enjoys owning property and having good cars but it was just an illusion. he had nothing to do with lives of corners when living beyond their means who is spain having to slash twenty seven billion euros from his budget many are outraged that even education and health care will suffer from the cuts at a time when unemployment is higher than ever. but we were deceived this global swindling means the financial sector the question is whether we've learned our lesson. but lessons from the past are not what the unemployed twenty three percent

in spain are looking for they just won't work and a government that can provide it with many believing that cuts to health care education and job security onerous. they should build the country's future degrees woodridge. but i'm going to take a look at some other stories around the world egypt's vice president says he intends to run as a candidate next month's presidential election. will be exhausted. he says he'll run. it in two thousand. so the previously moved him self out of the race changed his mind after hundreds of demonstrators are trying to do so. yemen's president. has fired two military chiefs who are close to the country's former. replacement really twenty top officials reshuffle came as

any way come but true i agree with you on that. party hits the streets of new york to ask whether the government should be allowed to monitor its citizens. nationals . gold. side of the oceans for the twenty fourteen winter olympics and such. was the plant that was responsible for causing the world's worst industrial disaster and now it had been abandoned in a condition where it had become a source of pollution and the most recent study that was done shows that this water

pollution and spread to. more than hundred thousand people in. groups walking and. ten times more likely to be born with birth defects in children. in the sea as little as five hundred dollars. and the unpunished. it's.

now it's a crazy that pushes people to the edge and tens many into attics and gambling disease is spreading faster than ever meet multi-billion dollar industry is doing little to help other bennett speaks to those whose lives in the u.k. have been crushed by compulsion. it's like a kid with a five month drink and drugs they're going to kill him ronald's a compulsive gambler he started betting when he was fifteen and couldn't stop for

fifty years his addictions left him with nothing i years ago in her. life and gotten my money and got hooked on leave no really i think i'm going to remember not always the most and often wondering well with regulars and turns out under ten thousand i got i'm told that the my what you want to with. if you want gangrene we want to celebrate is again one more. you want to you're not a back if not with no illusion. what can you just walk away once you've called on a compulsive gambler now call it couple why what is appropriate points coming. lost every penny or had ronald haunted grandfather's war medals and stole from his own family stating things so he could gamble more but even when loan sharks held a gun to his head he still couldn't stop gambling. and so they did know their money back you know and the sad thing was that i did not apply in their name but the

sickness of morehead told me but now you can go out and gamble to morrow with that money when the money tigerman celeb money. and so i'm not for the limo or one the money for an abandonment or we think you know it took five prison terms two divorces and being shunned by his family for ronald to finally manage to walk away he hasn't gambled for three years but for the gambling industry addictions like his mean profit today one in ten seventeen year olds is at risk of developing a same dangerous compulsion a shocking statistic from a leaked regulators report the industry tried to silence so you have a gambling reg regulator which is relatively feeble it is in bed with a gambling industry which isn't in the slightest degree interested in the prevention of gambling harm and there's the rub britain's one of the few countries in the developed world that actually allows children to gamble and this and places

like this don't actually let us film inside but even kids are allowed to play on the arcade machines in there the jackpot of up to five pounds john's just eighteen and has already been gambling for four years first scratch cards then the lottery now online poker but it's a win. loss a. family feeling altogether to mount if he. makes a grand way to get monica lewinsky a shape back in syria. go read sister from ever. try your money maybe someone like ronald john turned to crime to pay for his addiction selling drugs and stealing his only income now is unemployment welfare but as soon as he gets it it disappears like money will go away. i don't know if she is when you when you get this good feeling is a line the way they use it against him and the money back they never making money

back. kind of a scam. the thing you've got a problem she said yeah. yeah definitely. how serious. is when. john recognizes his problem countless thousands in britain and when it comes to gambling it's only ever one winner then it. online privacy may soon become a thing of the past as governments around the world attempt to closely monitor internet users. resident new york streets of manhattan to find out just how much information people are willing to share. in the name of national security governments around the globe are trying to pass legislation that allows them to monitor sensor and disrupt people online are you ok

with this speak let's talk about that for national security reasons i wouldn't object to that but that's the case isn't it yeah it should be legal so you trust them to use that power wisely. i have a think about it i think so yes. you know that does make a difference. maybe if you're in the u.s. or some other place in my field then yeah exactly security privacy also counts so. we're going to. look at it so you don't mind i'm looking through your e-mail. going to my e-mail but it's your e-mail and it's your life and they don't have any way to look through i agree with you on that. but. it's. hard to explain i guess. you know what i mean. we

just have to try to make the right person that's where you get the chance that's what you have you know that's where you got. somebody you can trust. and why they're doing it but i also don't want to get too much into your personal business . it's a tough card. do you think that's just the way it's going and you know as a society as we move more on line is inevitably our mind going to be not so free. to do you think about that when you go online that someone might be watching all the time but more and more hackers are. not the government. whether or not you think it's ok for a government to monitor its citizens the bottom line is before you post anything on line you might want to consider who could be listening.
