that they are interested only in violence and that they're being funded and armed by countries such as turkey saudi arabia and qatar now in a show of support for our side in the reforms he's been implementing thousands of syrians took to the streets of damascus on saturday in a massive rarely that rarely coming while banki moon says that syria has not been doing enough to show its commitment to announce a proposal but this is something that assad has denied he says there for days now he has been withdrawing his tanks and troops from numerous cities damascus is worried about the commitment coming forward from the opposition side it says it is no indication from the opposition as to whether or not they are fully committed to the peace plan and they're also concerned by the void that will now be opened in the cities where the troops no longer are at the same time there is a united nations team in damascus preparing the groundwork for next week's cease fire did line and the rebel fighters continue to look for support from the board we

are hearing from the united states from its allies and from other gulf countries again team to maximize and increase the material support that they are giving to the rebels at the same time the rebels are calling for the conditional stepping down of the syrian president bashar assad and indeed this is not a condition that was put forward in coffee announce plans or indeed any united nations statement on syria in doorstep there the friends of syria meeting that happened several days ago really has been the friends of the syrian opposition and here too we hear even more polluters to increase support for the rebel fighters now the rebels as i say have yet to officially agreed. on his proposal. and this is something that has many an international community concerned among them moscow which has made the point that as countries continue to indorse funding as well as supplying arms to the rebel fighters this is merely going to inflame the situation and the violence on the ground. pick up or inverter from the future of freedom

foundation says the syrian rebels and washington will not give up their pursuit of regime change if you have a cease fire where the rebels are under their cease fire and say ok we're we're in 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 of the cities are to consolidate their position and continue with their goal the 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 hypocrisy 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 which is not a glorious cars on the part of the west you in stark and a pro freedom pro-democracy regime this is about empire is what i was. well it is john boehner has agreed to hand power to civilian rule in return for an end to sanctions imposed by the country's neighbors as part of the agreement the west african bloc costs well live trade and fuel bans on mali and grant amnesty for those involved in the coup but the country's parliamentary speaker will be sworn in as in term president and organized elections within forty days political crisis in mali broke out when the military seize power and top of the president last month saying he had failed in his first against an insurgency taking advantage of the chaos rebels captured a key towns in the north and the cleric independence for the area expert in african politics milton our mahdi says the rebellion in mali is the result of the nato vironment of libya. for people to try to return this rebellion

a pakistani military base on the himalayan glaciers are burying around one hundred soldiers rescue efforts are underway with reports claiming that somebody is have now been recovered the area is on the northern tip of the divided kashmir region claimed by both india and pakistan and known as the world's highest battlefield. arranged security forces fired tear gas and water cannons crowds of people on friday it's only just become known because events are currently difficult to verify in the country thousands were marching in support of jail human rights activist who is serving a life sentence for taking part in anti-government uprising last year the man has been on a hunger strike for two months now and is being treated in a military hospital. gunmen loyal to yemen's ousted president have shot down the country's main airport threatening to shoot down planes this teacher came after two military chiefs close to the former leader were fired three shots all came as al

qaeda gunmen launched attacks against government sites through side missions targeting security forces have intensified since president took office in february following a year of protest against the former regime. the us is the only country in the world that jails young offenders for life without parole because it treats them as adults for their crimes but what's worse are the conditions treatment and abuse they face behind bars and as artie's lives while reports it causes others who do get released to be stuck in a cycle of reoffending. authorities in western pennsylvania have charged eleven year old jordan brown as an adult the boys will have a line at trial together in adult court but one of his sentence is also the length of his life they're not old enough to drive drink or vote but in america kids as young as seven years old can be tried as adults when you hold a youth icon

a bull the same manner and fashion in which you hold an adult it'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 one of my daughters and i do to you so you do be feeling 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 and that wasn't and neither was i designed it so rehabilitation was designed for punishment you know having barwise around again and just. like most kids that serve time as a juvenile in the u.s. 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 what it is we come out of the worst and you don't know to. sort of pull you in a reality and try to get a favorite you fries or sexual you know if you if you know it you become someone's

. personally he was spared from sexual abuse but many kids aren't so lucky and fact one in five victims of sexual violence in jails and prisons are under the age of eighteen youth and don't 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 went crazy and. just i was going to say we're not going to do for 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 their development 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 a view that 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 came to believe that harsher the penalty is the greater the public safety payoff kids should instead be rehabilitated says lubell that's the focus of washington d.c. as 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 system 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 wahl r.t. . well you type your user name and password and health your online privacy is sacrosanct terms like google and facebook though store tons of your data and legislation is circling to let third parties take a peek at your private information are you ready to share let's find out. in the name of national security governments around the globe are trying to pass legislation that allows them to monitor censor and just rat people online are you ok with that this week let's talk about that the 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 you do over it and. maybe if you're in the u.s. or some other place in my field different yeah exactly security privacy also comes . up that we're going to find out regardless anyway so let's look at it so you don't mind i'm looking through your e-mail nothing but they're going to find my e-mail but it's your e-mail and it's your life and they don't have any right to look through i agree with you on that. but. it's hard to explain i guess you know it's just the nature of a world where you have to have to have some type of power you know what i mean but we just have to try to let the right person that's where you get the chance that's why you have a ballot you know that's where you go out and you vote and vote for somebody who you think you can trust part of it i couldn't stand why they're doing it but i also don't want them to get too much into you know our personal business you know yeah

it's a tough cause it's a it is do you think that's just the way it's going and you know as a society as we move more on line inevitably our minds going to be not so free yes i do believe that you think about that when you go online that someone might be watching all the time but more and more hackers and stuff like that so that was my biggest concern not the government not the government because they're probably already looking at. 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. as the russian city of sochi prepares for the twenty fourteen winter olympics entire resort is enjoying a make over and well the vast construction effort is mostly about the future it's also under something unique from the past to his because he went underground for
