rush we've got the future covered. redefining the boundaries of journalism whistleblower extraordinary son strikes back with a new show missing to shine a light on the dirt and grime untouched by the mass media. syrian opposition shows its multiple places as unthinking rallies searing new gunfire not necessarily defending the evolution slogans change. or supporting stress positions and dedication secret memo shows the u.s. was games against using cool patient techniques branding and crimes.
2:01 am
on air and online twenty four seven you're watching r.t. the world's most controversial and polarizing whistleblower to date is premiering his very own show here on our team today a program called the world tomorrow with julian asylum's just a few hours away from the last i think logical stung what's the promise is to push the limits. of views and ideas by the mass media ahead of that. relationship even though well superpowers told us just what prompted him to start his own program. well the wait is almost over he leaks founder julian are still in his exclusive new show is to be broadcast here on r t today choose day i can tell you the first guest as you just have to tune in to point out what i can tell you is not. opinion all through this twelve backstage series but there are some discontent
2:02 am
and there are some who have very rarely been interviewed to network television the first guest is particularly controversial and according to you know when i speak to him charismatic now i want to talk to. a head of the broadcast of the program at the secretly casing where he films the show we told all about how he chose the guests because he spends a lot of time himself with the interview with that he talks about his disenchantment with mainstream media and why he chose in our t.v. to broadcast this show and also why he feels that he's in a unique position to make an interview show let's hear what he had to say. what you . have said to me. on my work that is not just because it. works it's because my
2:03 am
thought as someone who has been to. the folks. so i wanted something. different so why are you. pulling it out. and dealing with me. i understand that. trying. so i can speak to the great. this is a we could anniversaries. personal and professional it's five hundred days this week since the investigation into the allegations of sexual assault in sweden began he has been under house arrest for looked at that time and yet still new charges
2:04 am
have been laid against him formally we did see the case in the supreme court finished on the second of february already so it's nearly ten weeks since that case finished and still no verdict has been handed down by the sea pretty cool which is also five hundred days this week since the wiki leaks bank accounts were raised in and that's of course made it very difficult for them to raise any funding and really the whole future of the wiki leaks operation under threats this is why this is so unique it was conceived. during this incredibly difficult time in his life when he was virtually under house arrest as he still is having to report to the police station every day he told me that he's somebody who's always traveled to mexico to people and then he found himself in a position where he couldn't get to people so he wanted to find a way of making people come to him and that's how they say well the restriction my
2:05 am
freezer. now i have four hundred sixty. and it was used to go around the world. the greatest number where we could. and so it's quite isolated. under those conditions. to me so we. have. well the whole of that interview is coming your way in about twenty five minutes shortly around better eleven thirty g.m.t. today when we'll be airing the first episode of the world to work with you. there hasn't been anything yet on t.v. . it is to get the maximum political impact of.
2:06 am
the source material is what helps journalism we. we want to present. something of. the u.n. human rights body has admitted that violence is dwindling in syria after a cease fire came into force last week however it says violations are still shaking the fragile truce and there's hostilities give way to mass rallies there. are just calls for freedom and democracy are being discredited by the armed militia may find some images and knocks on the balkans report disturbing. this is the media face of the syrian revolution and shaban now end of it kalashnikovs appealing to the international community to stop the killing of children by their bloodthirsty army . doctors a few weeks later in this same man this time posing as soldiers
2:07 am
going around homs knocking on the doors of innocent people. later we see them again already down shown on you tube as civilians were savagely killed by troops yet still western policymakers insist on calling these people freedom fighters rather than charities you and i for america. and the definition. for america. who are fighting. for. you are talking about. we have. no. organization of course this is also the syrian opposition. goals and ways of achieving them are
2:08 am
strikingly different kurdish women are against the entrenched discrimination of their ethnic group others in the crowd call for free elections and stopping arbitrary detentions still the main slogan there rallying under is for the peaceful change. we think that bashar al assad has to step down but we are totally convinced it can be achieved through nonviolent means the only way for this democratic revolution to proceed is peacefully all sides have to stop the violence small rallies like the peace almost the wicklow current in damascus but this time even syrian state t.v. came to film a body farm travelled rapt attention to syrian opposition has many faces and there's a growing concern here that basically the radicals may be hurting because of more moderate forces that gunfire has essentially drawn down more legitimate calls for
2:09 am
democratic change while the organizers of this rally received a permit from there it didn't last long an hour into the protest a group of the. that's employee said beard from your wear sending demonstrators running on this occasion nobody was hurt but getting. the marker see is about the rule of the majority and the majority of the people support bashar al assad these people maybe carry. their freedom from the guns of course that supporters there is indeed little difference between peaceful protesters and the rebels and it looks like the west is meeting the same mistake by betting on the armed opposition international chorus makes activists like this guilty of association began charging militia people start seeing violence. it gets much much worse obviously a lot of although. as i say all the buzz is just not promote democracy but quite
2:10 am
the opposite chaos even in the long run. syria has long prided itself on tolerance but when it comes to politics the gloves come off very quickly not only a syrian so you have to agree to disagree but more importantly they have to learn how to do it in a nonviolent way it's an avoider art see them ask syria. advance team of u.n. monitors has started its mission to stabilize the troops u.s. space professor of middle east studies to assure landis says no racial the world community more time to decide on the next diplomatic steps in syria. it's not clear what they can do they will report back to the un security council and the opposition has been calling for a time line and they want this to be referred back to the un almost immediately they've they say they're claiming that it's not working and it's falling apart but i think the international community doesn't know what to do next and they're likely
2:11 am
to give this more time and hope that they can if they can begin to bring some calm to syria there were reports that opposition a number of free syrian army people have talked that they're going to try to use this to rearm get guns in and and and he tank misses some of them are saying from iraq and really whether the two sides can be brought to the franco shading table that's going to be the important thing is if there is any will from either side to negotiate an outcome of this rather than hope for a win. well so ahead for you later this hour crying tears of anything but remorse for a victim of the deaths of seven people in last summer's massacre in norway show some emotion that's a reminder of unfulfilled explains why do you. think the web uses a week of protests to stop saddam's security that's a big u.s. congress saying. online privacy.

waterboarding and stress positions justice to the controversial torture techniques used by the u.s. against terror suspects a secret has been leaked which runs the war crimes and shows the bush administration was one of the against their use. explains many feel the presence of border isn't enough to make up for america's past mistakes. america's so-called war on terror produced images and accounts that ignited a world of questions about torture and the u.s. treatment of suspects american people need to know we're using techniques within the last. two years after george w. bush left the white house. the former commander in chief admitted his stamp of approval for the use of interrogation techniques like waterboarding dubbed inhumane and illegal under u.s. law and the geneva conventions was waterboarding legal in your opinion but there's
2:13 am
a lawyer said it was legal so it got forward some of the torture. and but you know first a judgment of people who are going to do the bush administration also chose to disregard the judgment of a top adviser who warned that the cia's interrogation of terror suspects equated to felony war crimes according to a secret memo obtained by wired magazine in two thousand and six state department councilor philip zelikow warned the white house that controversial. interrogation techniques such as waterboarding stress positions and cramped confinement are prohibited under u.s. law and under american law there is no precedent for excusing treatment that is intrinsically cruel even if the state asserts compelling need to use it i think there needs to be an accounting in the united states of what was done over the last ten years and name of america so there is a president after the second world. united states actually executed japanese
2:14 am
soldiers who had. used torture. against american prisons they took action against the japanese what made the u.s. has been on record as opposing want to talk to when carried out by other countries so there is a clear legal case to say that you know action must be taken we're still evaluating two weeks before taking office u.s. president barack obama steered clear of saving america's historic commitments to international justice and we're going to be looking at past practices. and i don't believe that anybody has a problem on the other hand i also have a belief that we need to go forward as well as as opposed to what looking back last june obama's u.s. justice department dropped in ninety nine out of one hundred one cases against cia interrogators over the use of torture i mean very clearly ministration wants to keep those options open but you don't want to label these techniques just as crimes
2:15 am
your torture because that would prohibit them from using them by weaving the real definition however slightly grainy bin laden so he option why didn't stick newts once again there is what is frightening scholars attorneys and human rights experts around the world have called for the prosecution of senior bush administration officials who designed in order torture tactics however critics say the unspoken agreement within countries proclaiming to pioneer democracy is to never turn on your own the peace that the west we you know. we make great claim about our great democracies but there is a kind of. thing. that they will not press charges and they will not take legal action against the crimes of previous administrations through the use of torture and secret prisons america's moral position around the world has are undoubtedly shifted and while the u.s. will likely continue barking that became so freedom and democracy critics say the
2:16 am
more important question to ask is who is even listening anymore. artsy new york. times as u.s. elections are he's a special report looks at the accuracy of a country's voting system that's coming your way a. vote for bush. the book. by one or kerry so the people that are going to be validating this machine can stand there all day long and vote for somebody and it will be right every time but the guy can walk up here and if he hits the right buttons. they can vote anything. and also the courtroom under armed guard will open its doors a second day later on tuesday with a norwegian mass killer as brave expected
2:17 am
a prepared statement experts say it will help resolve the main dilemma. criminally responsible. one of the three although since early this luton shedding tears at his own propaganda media. killing said he said last summer. in a shooting spree at a youth camp outside the capital however he's pleaded not guilty. for an act of self-defense to protect norway from it's not fair that the blanket coverage of the trial. is a concern for me your employer can work that is the way you want the justice system works in in the european union in norway he he will clearly i was opportunity to express his own views one just hopes that the overall we will turkey people will reject over what they are signs of if you want to a man who who is deluded and
2:18 am
a racist this is something that we've seen across the european union. in germany in france in the united kingdom as well as in norway he was particularly successful but i think he see he's one of. many maybe too strong really he's certainly not unique in amy's whatsoever and least groups are actually working together to promote these kind of lone wolves in many senses follow the same loosely as some of the muslim fundamentalists. well you can find all the latest updates on that disturbing story or track it back through its very beginning on our website artie dot com there's also plenty more there to catch your eye today as it takes the fish in the water is suspended from the labor party after allegedly setting a ten million pound rounds in heads of president obama wants them to push. the russian culture vultures and some crazy themselves funny tricks naive on the

2:20 am
have more understanding now what we're seeing with this is that the authors of the bill are trying to disassociate themselves so but they actually put out the intellectual property was last week which is a good sign unfortunately they didn't do nearly as far enough and were running a week one protest this week actually trying to convince congressmen to go no on this bill until they take out these privacy destroying provisions and hopefully make it a bill which can affect cybersecurity positively but not encroach on the privacy rights of americans. look at some other stories making headlines around the well the history is the minister says the country will withdraw its troops from afghanistan. yet. you know if you say it was moved forward guns were ready to take responsibility. plans will be discussed nato summit next month a struggle for troops stationed in the country as
