that's five pm in moscow and this is our team coming to you live from the news now with our top story this tuesday is seeing the premiere on our t.v. of one of the most highly anticipated news talk shows of the recent you of recent years world renowned whistleblower julian the sun she's going head to head with a series of controversial high profile figures despite having been stuck in house arrest in the u.k. for a staggering five hundred days or smith has more on the first edition of a show that promises to give the floor so those mostly shunned by the mainstream media. it's an interview with someone who's only very rarely heard from in the west snuff tied with six years ago the millions he's a freedom fighter but the millions of others he's a terrorist it's the highly controversial leader of hezbollah that not for some reason not to really talk to him for a range of issues to do with his areas of influence including the israeli palestinian conflict and has below its role in the international struggle

a vis syria now for the reveal for the first time that has contacted the opposition in syria to urge them to negotiate with that regime they refuse that hezbollah will keep pushing. from syria's decisions dialogue is there to reform at the mystery carried out because the alternative to that no one cause of the first season but also inside syria because the sensitivity of the situations in syria also that's just a question and it's a civil war and this is exactly what america and israel want for syria that's really also pointed to the involvement of al qaida in syria saying agitate his house already arrived and they'll be followed by more how qaida members from elsewhere in the arab world they he says are trying to destabilize syria and turn it into a battleground elsewhere in the region not really reiterated heads below its view that colors died belongs to the palestinians now years and some i have

a feeling of if your house i don't know can probably come by force because they come by in fifty or one hundred u.s. just because armstrong has a new idea it will kill you and that doesn't give me that doesn't mean you can rise higher question for your house now i went to talk to. a head of the broadcast of the program at the secret location where he filmed the show we told you all about the show how he chose the guests because he spent a lot of time himself on the other side of the interview with death he talks about his disenchantment with mainstream media and why he chose in r t to broadcast this show and also why he feels that he's in a unique position to make an interview show this card let's hear what he had to say . majority of what they have said to me. whether it's from people that work. with me they understood that the north you know has little to do with. you and with someone whose brains were very trying for

something called for medical situation so they can speak green calls because they are on the story so it's not too late to the whole show it will be broadcast here on our t.v. every two hours through tuesday to catch it. and we're not showing back to you we're just you know julian and sandra show in are just about twenty five minutes right here on our team. you know the news a syrian rebel group admits that kofi annan peace plan is the last chance any side has to end violence but after talks in moscow with opposition leaders russia warns there are still those intent on stoking the conflict here's the next intercept. weeks since the syrian foreign minister was in mosul to hold talks with syria lavrov the russian foreign minister now members of the syria domestic opposition the national coalition coming here and they've already said that the u.n.

brokered cease fire plan proposed by coffee and on it is the last chance to bring his still ities in this country to an end now lavrov basically regenerated mosco stance that despite this plan seemingly working out so far certainly there are some forces which are willing to disrupt this rather fragile peace. there are countries interested in the failure of kofi not planned from the outset they predicted the failure of any political agreement in syria and only demanded regime change we have information that even today those who have such a stance are doing a lot to hamper the plan by providing arms to the oppositions instigating violence by militants i hope that all who have some influence will pursue the interests of the syrian people and security in the region and not their geo political ambitions . the members of the national coordinator committee from syria played along saying that the biggest difficulty in maintaining peace in syria is the lack of unified

international stance on the issue on the also happy that must go also willing for a democratic and peaceful change in syria now lavrov also said that. a large scale server force in syria is crucial to bringing the facilities to an end in this country and we understand that while this blast seemingly worked out so far with rallies and renewing in the country certainly the off the is of that calls for democracy and freedom in the country being disrupted are being destroyed by the current militia in the country now my colleague on a boy who did a report on that and you may find some images in this report very disturbing this is the need to face of the syrian revolution and shaban man with kalashnikovs appealing to the international community to still be killing of children by the bloodthirsty assad are. a few weeks later the same man this time closing the soldiers going around knocking on the doors of people.

later we see them again already dad shown on you tube as civilians killed by troops still western policymakers insist on calling these people with them fighters rather than charities the united states of america. and the. mission for orders. for america. and who are fighting for. this is. talking about. this is also the syrian opposition but it faces goals and ways of achieving them are strikingly different these kurdish women are against be entrenched

discrimination of that ethnic group others in the crowd called for free elections and stopping arbitrary detentions still the main slogan they are rallying under is for peaceful change. we think that bashar 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 these almost the wicklow currents in damascus this time given syrian state t.v. came to fill my arms rebels grab their attention the syrian opposition has many faces and there's a growing concern here that basically the radicals in the last may be hurting because more moderate forces. are have essentially drawn down more legitimate calls for democratic change while the organizers of this rally received a permit from the authorities it didn't last long an hour into the protest

a group of a. starts a quarter is a period for me on where sounding demonstrators running on this occasion nobody was hurt or detained. democracy is about the rule of the majority and the majority of the people support bush are all of these people. from from guns force that supporters there is indeed little difference between peaceful protesters and the rebels and it looks like the west is making this thing mistake by betting on the armed opposition international chorus make activists like these guilty of association with the gun charging militia but when people start violence . it gets much much worse obviously a lot of. buzz is just not promote democracy but quite the opposite chaos and even. prided itself on

tolerated but when it comes to politics the gloves come off very quickly not only a syrian city have to agree to disagree but more importantly they have to learn how to do it in a nonviolent way it's in the car see them ask syria. was a team of u.n. monitors starts its mission in syria to ensure that both the government and the opposition respect the terms of a truce you have a professor of mideast studies joshua landis says the operation will take some time before the country achieves and the stability. they will report back to the u.n. security council and the international community they're likely to give us more time and hope that they can they can forget 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 antitank missiles some of them are saying from iraq

and really whether the two sides can be brought to the fight go shooting table that's going to be the important thing if there is any will from either side to negotiate an outcome of this rather than hope for a win. coming up later this hour the u.s. government just won't quit when it comes to time and the news around the net it's a bill that would let officials take what they want when they want with your private online data and there's a week of furious protest ahead because of it plus. he says he's innocent but he says he killed seventy seven innocent people as an act of goodness but his mental state is still yet to be determined to bring you the latest on the anders breivik mass murder and terror trial.

regrets or repentance from norwegian mass killer anders breivik who says he would have done it again is giving his testimony on the second day of his trial which is not being published and sort of broadcast breivik admits last summer's bombing gun attack the nozzle which killed seventy seven people but pleads not guilty saying it was an insult to france to protect norway from islam to this hearing was delayed after a judge was dismissed for commenting on facebook shortly after the tragedy product deserve a death sentence a penalty banned in norway judges may be disallowed but graphic still publicly helling is massacre as the most spectacular and sophisticated attack on europe since world war two for many breivik scaling exactly what he wanted a platform for his extreme idea. that is the way if you want the justice system works in the european union or we will clearly i was opportunity to express his own views one just hopes that the overwhelming majority of people will reject them for

what they are signs of if you want to. who is deluded and the racist illusion of abuse is something that we've seen across the european union. in germany and in france in the united kingdom as well as in norway is just he was politically successful but i think you see he's one of. many maybe too strong really he's certainly not unique you name means whatsoever unleashed groups are actually working together to promote these kind of lone wolves in the early sixty's follow the same pattern loosely some of the muslim fundamentalists. who have anders breivik years roll this say in the maximum jail seventy receive is just twenty one years but that could be extended if he's considered a threat to society if not it's three months in prison for every person killed like antartica through the prison which which may how through. and where the mass killer

could spend his uninterrupted uninterrupted i should say days behind bars. several torture techniques used by the u.s. against terrorist suspects have been labeled war crimes it's in the lead secret state department officials memo which also reveals a warning to the bush administration about their use and was more important i explained some believe president obama is turning a blind eye to america's past. america's so-called war on terror produced images and recounts that ignited a world of questions about torture and the u.s. treatment of suspects american people need to know or using techniques within the law to protect 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 well as waterboarding legal in your opinion as

a lawyer said it was legal so that they got some of that torture. away. and. let you go first it shows that people are going to do that bush administration also chose to disregard the carriage mention 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 word are working stress positions and clamp 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 going on over the last eight years in the name of america there is a president after the second world. united states actually executed japanese

soldiers who had. used torture. against american christians they took action against the japanese what made the u.s. has been on record as opposing want to talk about countries so there is a clear legal case to say that you know action must be taken restore valuating two weeks before taking office u.s. president barack obama steered. we are of saving america's historic commitments to international justice. and don't believe that anybody has a problem on. the other hand i also have a belief that it would be able to afford those laws as opposed to what looking back last june obama's u.s. justice department dropped in ninety nine out of one hundred in one cases against cia interrogators over the use of torture i'm not a current ministration wants to keep those options open and you don't want to label

these techniques just as crimes or torture because that would prohibit them from using them but we didn't get real definition and however it's one we agree but we've been so busy option we're flying mr newts once again and that is what is threatening here 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 problem is that in the west we you know we make great claim about our great democracies but there is a kind of stick shift between the elite party that they will not press charges and they will not take legal action against the crimes of book or previous administrations through the use of torture rendition and secret prisons america's moral position around the world has are undoubtedly shifted and while the u.s. will likely continue barking the beacons of freedom and democracy critics say the

more important question to ask is who is even listening anymore. artsy. another cyber security bills on its way to congress in the states which liberal groups say well that the government harvests any online personal data whenever it wants for a long week of protest against the spa after the success and rarely were notorious . the act that freedom activists charge him thinks it's time lawmakers got some. before when we were trying to stop sopa congress wouldn't return the calls of the civil liberties community they wouldn't return the calls of the tech community they were just trying to shove it through congress without any debate whatsoever once they saw the power of the internet and how internet users can organize and really make a difference in the legislative procedure i think they understood that you know they have been more understanding now what we're seeing with this is that the authors of

the bill are trying to disassociate themselves with soap but they actually took out the intellectual property laws last week which is a good sign unfortunately they didn't go nearly as far enough and were running a week one protest this week actually trying to convince congressman to vote no on this bill until they take out these privacy destroying provisions and hopefully make it a bill which can you know affect cyber security positively but not encroach on the privacy rights of americans. that r t dot com we mount the increasing attempts by governments and big business to business isn't getting counseling your data and dictating what you can thank you and to you on the internet well your they are yours without your still freedom watch freezing freezing and thieving americans accused of stealing over two hundred million dollars blockaded cuban funds now there are questions over what all this money is on the.

a cairo court where defendants charged over the death of seventy five people at the port side football riot declared their innocence confined to a cage they chanted for justice or death the ride on february. broke out between longstanding rival supporters of a local and a cairo team many face murder trials while nine police officers have been charged with assisting the group and attacking the cairo fattens. the space shuttle discovery took its final flight today. aboard a modified jumbo jet as it heads to the smithsonian museum in washington and thirty years of space exploration discovery is now because most traveled shadow it loves florida's kennedy space center where thousands lined the old landing strip to see the craft had off for the last time. now figuring out the finances of the world's money malays isn't easy especially when it comes to mind numbing numbers in places like greece i'll take your hand though our. tim kirby has an after you work out why

it matters. to me good leverage or the dream was to build the world's most sophisticated robot which one doesn't do the doing about anything. to teach creation why you should care about you and. this is why you should. only. see what's happening in the world of big money daniel the slow going bust and perkins is the name of the game isn't it then his presence a little bit of uprooted made some big spending promises in his election campaign but in a keynote speech he's pledged to control the budget. that speech. well it does seem like a change of weather for the russian economy instead of spending more on state project budget a person says the country should save up for the hard times more or less and have

a self sufficient pension fund now in order to do so let in a person hailed methods used by the former finance minister alexey couture and in the years preceding the two thousand and eight financial crisis which very much help the country overcome this crisis and this means that all the extra oil and gas money and by extra he means anything above the ten year average will price of all this money should be accumulated into a reserve fund as soon as it reaches seven percent of the g.d.p. all the extra money will be going into big infrastructure projects and into a longer term national welfare but also a very important point of letting approximate which pretty much spooked the gas industry is that taxation in this industry is very low it's justifiably low so this is also something to look out. richard is doing because we've been talking about rules nist groundbreaking poll should deal with america's signed yesterday and its

whole reason for good technical expertise and its own gains access to russia's also involves unconventional extraction projects such as show gas christine says corrina from ratings agency standard and pools explains why this makes sense for russia. it is estimated that in terms of conventional recoverable reserves russia has around one hundred trillion cubic meters in terms of gas but if you look at unconventional potential excluding hydrates it is estimated thirty of can have anything between one hundred fifty to five hundred trillion cubic meters so that's a huge potential they've seen that. the united states so they're trying to cover their faces start understanding how to develop these potential resources in the future that could pardon sea you know give it a gobbling all tripling of its own reserves likely there are some in canada be you where it. is your fruit for
