organizations. this with the one that people listen to us hide from ohio for example if there was a just a trial there you don't you have to be very mean is the defendant should have an opportunity to defend themselves some say in the court of public opinion as presented by the u.s. mainstream media there is a tendency to simplify issues often at the expense of the full picture somebody agrees or doesn't agree with hezbollah's ideas or all of their ideas ideology or their theology the american people need to hear the voice of hezbollah rather than simply have them demonize. targeted as a quote terrorist but the purpose of demonizing somebody like nasir rolla or nelson mandela who was considered a terrorist until nine hundred eighty eight is not really to stop terrorist ideas from infiltrating but for the american people to only hear one side of a debate only hear one side of an argument julian assange is now under house arrest in the u.k. fighting extradition to sweden where he may well be extradited to the united states

information the range of information that previously were not available if one views the media as a court of public opinion then julian assange which is someone who presents to the jury that is the viewers argument evidence of voices which they almost never hear on mainstream media and it's up to the viewers to form an opinion but what many find ironic is that all solution is under attack by the u.s. government and the media for practicing poor forks then the freedom of information that america. around the globe i'm going to start our reporting from washington. the first edition of the show how it's caused such a stir across the world this coming up next hour log on just sounds dot r t v dot com there you'll find a show itself as well as the twenty minute interview where we can be found or also feel free to have your say in the comments section and read more about how the world reacted to the program at. around eight

cousin they are all syrian people. washington has once again called for tougher sanctions against syria earlier measures how already seen the country's foreign currency reserves slashed by half but political analysts while his here in damascus says it's the people who carry the main burden. sanctions for us so that he sees sanctions for a transfer. of care and see you when you see sanctions on trade these would need be very hard to syrian citizens i do think the really concerned the government and if they do they only concern the government in the sense that they would create a sense of undressed on certain segments of the population and this whole litany of sanctions has proved over the years to be nothing but a tool to really. hurt the weakest members of society the situation though this is really tense right now and i think this is not the client through political posture

so the fact is that this is a piece. you. you know it's a trade agreement that will. be gracious on european countries to make it go in certain ways but it still is europe it's european law making effectively by proxy i'm going to show you that the european union have effectively created institutions and procedures which have prevented these kind of agreements coming under any kind of democratic scrutiny whatsoever that's the real problem it's true that countries have signed up to it but no point have national populaces had any say whatsoever in the provisions of this agreement so that's we're really troubling aspect of it is the fact that it's fundamentally antidemocratic. but in today's r.t. interview tom barton speaks here work fostering or founder of the swedish pirate party he says internet freedom isn't something governments should take lightly so if you open up these rallies are huge i mean if you look at poland they're the rallies that have already been are absolutely astounding and people are frankly

in afghanistan even more than they are right now that that would be blamed ministration then the republicans would use that as a hammer to the obama administration on the head with during the coming months. now take a look at some other stories from around the world qatar has reportedly seen an attempted military coup organized by high ranking officials aimed at overthrowing the country's leader according to unconfirmed information the royal family had to be taken by helicopters to safety officials have sought to keep the incident away from the media due to a volatile situation throughout the arab region. and other can you give me a tour has urged the u.n. to take action to stop fighting between sudan and south sudan over and over its region the security council has already demanded the south moves its troops from the disputed area the country send forces into the sector last tuesday claiming it was a response to air and ground attacks from sudan which accuse its southern neighbor

going to be watching else there is. prime minister putin said that he is suggesting that the tax the gas sector doesn't pay enough taxes though that growth suggesting an increase in tax burdens a lot of the wants was loosened posted because coming out of the i.m.f. report yesterday saying that the russian economy is that expounds life for instance oh indeed russia is the world's biggest energy exporter a super high at which the prices are expected to benefit the economy here this is at the ruble that's now you can see business as well and as we can see it's stronger against the u.s. dollar figure at this hour but here it's all of that still down the four it's the third session in the pool if we move on to the international markets we also see that is positive sentiments going on there and that is because in the i.m.f. report they have also boosted the global growth for call for three point five percent from three point three percent which was originally predicted i was also

got a successful spanish as well as the exact figures coming from germany and that is investor confidence they were better than anticipated as well if we look at the u.s. vegas yesterday we also see that those results helped to overshadow the industrial and housing starts which were actually not quite as good as investors have argued but obviously the nazi party to weasel games away to. talk about oil that was also spoken about. in the eye there for of course but it's an old prices to ten percent this year on rising demand and possible supply disruptions interesting want to watch it is trying to the biggest oil refineries said to increase their production us president barack obama came out with some comments yesterday about the oil markets themselves in the way that investors attitudes need to change apparently he was saying it's the end of personal gain because households are the ones that suffer as

a result and he's talking about market manipulation since i'll be an interesting one indeed to the powerful ok that's the markets for this hour marina in the next hour i'm going to have the figures for the european market all right kitty thanks very much indeed for this outlook and of course to stay with our team for an interview with the founder of the swedish pirate party right after an update of headlines.
