peace deal in danger of syrian rebels fail to provide written guarantees they will halt violence something the government says is the main condition for army withdrawal. the world's most powerful gun lobby's under fire a string of shootings leaves many americans appalled it was leans towards those pulling the trigger. plus the skill of pilots in russia is under scrutiny including find new crews are often unable to perform emergency landings we capture a fatal plane crash killed more than thirty people.

it is eight o'clock in the russian capital you're watching r t with me marina joshing the fast approaching that line for an agreed cease fire in this year in conflict may not be met opposition forces are not offering written guarantees they will lay down their arms the main condition said by the government before it starts pulling back its forces from cities along with it was drawn by tuesday that make or break agreement brokered by special envoy kofi annan includes a complete cease and all facilities by thursday syria's foreign minister is heading to moscow reports on how the government is complying with the initiative by being rude based political analyst amar in the shop he says there are indications the rebels and the powers behind him are just not interested in peace. the so-called city from the free syrian army and its supporters in the west and some. groups that

support that do not want. proportional to the city and people support president assad in fact. some reports claim it is the joint now eve. if it's not the majority even if it is an equal number or a large proportion of the syrian population then one cannot have a stable syria without dialogue and one cannot have a dialogue without the ceasefire so be the opposition groups or syrian free army that is supported by western powers and countries needs to. resolve this matter of priority. to the international community and to everybody and to the united nations is the priority. actually have a stable syria and to actually build government institutions are all full of course it would be more graphic reform the order is the priority. a possible

fall out of the syrian crisis may affect israel which is under threat of losing strategically vile territories of occupied over forty years ago our disposal here has more of how israeli interests are caught up in the unrest of its neighbor the golan heights stretching back a finger between the borders of lebanon jordan and syria whoever controls these mountains controls the area. which is was done since katrina from damascus in one thousand sixty seven but there's something more fundamental than security at stake much of israel's water supply comes from here the goal line is absolutely essential for for israel's water there's no doubt about that which is why serious being closely watched by its neighbors on the side of the border you can't walk far without a reminder of this land changing ownership. these are old syrian military houses for the jew settle here now what happens next could be

a matter of life and death if the water becomes polluted they start pumping the water away oh no there's a number of issues that that that would face in this scenario that it was totally unacceptable because it would also change the whole face of the landscape of the state of israel these really communities that live in the goal and get it thinking water from underground springs a rainwater therefore it's channeled through water reserves like this one to the sea of galilee this is the largest freshwater lake in israel it supplies about thirty percent of the country's water from here the water is pumped as far as the same tech and south of the country where it is used for both domestic and agricultural purposes the water is the main reason for making peace or for one of the war is wrong the next goal and over thirty years ago it's never been internationally recognized and returning the territory to syria was on the cards until relatively recently. but syria's instability has israelis on tenterhooks many

feel they still technically at war and whoever replaces president assad could prove infinitely worse for them it will be like exchanging the boston strangler for jerk the ripper or vice versa and all the emotion in the world. for roughly thirty five percent or for real water resources a strategic vantage point but chiefly a vital lifeline to a parched landscape for the syrians a thirst to get back in a hands is unlikely to be quenched no matter how damascus is future plans are policy r.t. golan heights. much like the west iran is also eagerly watching events unfold in syria but from a very different perspective coming up in just twenty five minutes time if our shapira from israel's institute for national security studies tells r.t. just what iran has to lose from the fall of us at fault or hubris been

and the dream has been iran's closest rally for over two decades if us a true dream falls apart iran is standing to lose a very strong only because any government would pick place in syria would be worse than of our own democracy which is not very likely or muslim muslim brothers who are sunis and were very hostile to. iran any route you either hostile to run or far from corporate community around the earth much of the bashar al assad regime has been. from boycotts to marches and protests there is public anger over the killing of teenager trayvon martin across america gunned down while armed only with iced tea

and candy the episode has brought attention to the country's last gun laws which critics say i've gone far beyond just security right of ordinary ports. if the second amendment to the u.s. constitution had a soundtrack. the right to bear arms would best be recognized by gunfire. the land of the free is the most heavily armed nation in the world with two hundred ninety four million firearms floating around america hi i'm chuck norris. and some progress under my home i could use my roundhouse kick. for a look down the barrel of my gun. in a reported thirty states a us doctrine known as the castle law allows homeowners to shoot and kill intruders without becoming liable to prosecution since two thousand and five that freedom for gun owners to point and shoot in the name of self-defense has widened and her

controversial legislation known as the stand your ground law experts say it allows going owners to use deadly force to protect themselves in public by sensually delivering a license to kill it tells people you know what if you're in a confrontation on the street with someone or getting into an argument or there's a physical altercation even if you could safely retreat from that just walk away and go home you don't have to we're going to let you shoot and potentially kill another human being and then the law will not only provide you with proper immunity from criminal prosecution but also immunity from any future civil litigations stand your ground first became law in florida but recently received national attention following the deadly shooting of seventeen year old trayvon martin the unarmed student was carrying candy and iced tea when he was shot dead by a neighborhood watch volunteer police released the gunman george zimmerman without

charges was our son but trayvon is your son. a lot of people can relate to our situation. and it breaks their heart just like it breaks mine he said he. will continue to fight for justice for sins stand your ground took effect the number of so-called justifiable homicides in florida have tripled as martin's parents mourn the loss of their son u.s. gun laws remain historically loose in many states citizens with criminal records and prior restraining orders are still able to receive gun permits. critics say easy access comes courtesy of the national rifle association or n.r.a. a gun rights organization and the tories sleep powerful u.s. lobbying group that reportedly spent more than seventy million dollars on political ads during the two thousand and ten u.s. midterm election paid for by the n.r.a.

everything that the n.r.a. pushes at the state and federal level is designed to sell more weapons that's what this is about there's a lot of money thrown around whether it's an or a campaign contributions to florida politicians or corporate money that can be spread around a number of different ways since two thousand and five the stand your ground law has been i adopted in twenty five states throughout america just like the sixty conduct a particular set in some of the people in our culture here to do to gun violence murder and so you know as the most powerful nation on the planet richest nation in some people's minds most democratic nation by this clearly something before you can see people should each other all of south americans since i don't believe in u.s. civil liberties and freedom have suffered in the name of national security new gun laws have some alternate history made it easier for americans to arm themselves leaving the land of liberty locked and loaded or die of heart see me up.

been a failure to delist the plane prior to takeoff it's a decision typically made by the captain of the aircraft the problems that we have today in aviation comes down to the system that prepares and manufactures planes as well as those who train the pilots and flight personnel with only a handful of certified aviation schools across russia and the industry rapidly growing there simply aren't enough pilots in the seventy's it took only two years to become an aviator now it's a college degree and a specialized program that could take up to eight years to complete opening just last year once all is a chanting to turn back the clock and address the issue the primary goal of the arafat aviation school here in moscow is to fix the shortage of professionals in a russian aviation industry bad weather horrible equipment and even older models of planes have been to blame of recent crashes in russia however here the primary focus is on the human factor the idea that pilots and copilots should be able to

handle high levels of stress in order to land a plane safely on the ground or in the water. but even at this school it's painfully obvious that simply turning over pilots at a faster rate don't be enough russian airlines need at least eight hundred new pilots yearly while here it takes twenty four months to graduate just a fifth of that number of these state of the art computer based programs and simulators may fall short when competing with actual flight experience with you nowadays a pilot acts only as the operator of a plane he basically pushes buttons turning them on and off with the exception of takeoff and landing older more experienced pilots have this knowledge but also have skills that help them in other more unconventional circumstances with skills like those of pilots who perform miracles landings in two thousand and ten an electrical failure crippled a plane travelling from siberia to moscow the two middle aged russian pilots on

that flight safely landed the aircraft on an abandoned military airfield against the odds all eighty one people on board survived. the new method should be in place for the construction of our planes the preparation of pilots and flight crew on the ground and in the air in addition there should always be a system to control and check these people if we don't have this they will never be ordered in our aviation. thirteen planes crashed in russia last year eight of which resulted in fate tallaght ease and those three were due to pilot error and most tragic in u.s. law which killed all but one of the forty five people on board karen taraji archie moscow. now website r.t. dot com you can follow the whole story watch videos and photos from the crash site as well as listen to witnesses testimonies so here's a taste of what else is lined up for you there. and you'll out of mind control find out the line about the future weapons that will make zombies out of the enemy
