their own game because he's gone to a place where others have not been before and he's introduced the types of information the range of information that previously were not available if one views the media as a court of public opinion then julian assange 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 newest to form an opinion but what many find ironic is that our function is under attack by the us government and the media for practicing cool for extend the freedom of information that america. around the globe i'm going to check out reporting from washington. now the first edition of the show that's caused such a stir across the world is coming up in about twenty five minutes time. and you can also log on to darcy dot com there you'll find a show itself as well as a twenty minute interview with a we can expound or also feel free to have your say in the comments section and

wants peace for itself not purposely means america which initiated the peace talks is just which bring them back to life and get a deal on a school card for washington the current climate of what they see as democracy rolling out in the arab world is a perfect time to iron out discord that's been going stale for years you know all the israelis and palestinians can see are clouds building well israel is basically divided between can schools of thought one of which says there's just too much danger and uncertainty to take any kind of an earful and the other school of thought which says. look in the circumstances israel ought to try to do whatever. disarm hostility for the palestinians it's much starker they've seen change among the arab neighbors that's not only possibly by producing them being let down and so called by extremists we look at where the arab spring is likely to lead us it's most likely at this point it would seem to lead us

to greater islamist influence around our borders and that means less chances fewer chances of peace rather than more on this war which is part of the border between israel and the west bank are the faces of the heroes of the palestinian people they've been smiling down from here for years and still nothing's changed but across the atlantic all washington can see a fledgling democracies while all the time ignoring the trouble left in their wake not least of all in building and entrenched in movable israel and the palestinian people running out of patience police say r.t. women are. meanwhile israel is also powering on with its campaign against another a foe iran tel aviv says it's easy islamic republic's nuclear ambitions and political rhetoric as a nick existential threat and why tolerate crossed off later today parallel brings the two camps together with predictable results. the iranian president never

said that he will attack or destroy israel he said israel must cease to exist as a political entity and the willful mistranslation in the words of what he said is clear to all he said basically that this has always been iranian policy that israel as an apartheid state most used to exist just as apartheid south africa ceased to exist that's what they mean when they call israel the two bomb states that israel must cease to exist that he's already after a good thing when the iranians date whoever said there are no i want a world of you know we're in the line of a movie in a world of google i would advise you not to tell viewers of this program that the iranians have not referred to israel's or one bombing of two bombs they can also do you know you can only hear that you have come on your show you. on google.

says the syrian opposition including those base in turkey are inflaming this situation to disrupt the peace plan by special envoy kofi annan and reach a truce that's as the regime comes under fire from foreign powers who have hinted the government is not keeping its side of the bargain while the e.u. has announced it's working on a new set of sanctions against syria with washington also strengthening its calls for tougher measures previous restrictions have already seen the country's foreign currency slashed by half the political analysts what are counted in damascus it's the people who carry the name gird. when they see you sanctions the worst of it the asian currencies sanctions for a transfer. currency when you see the sanctions on the tree so these really hope very hard to syrian citizens i do think the really concerned the government and if they do the only concern of the government in the sense that we would call.

he had a sense of under arrest on certain segments of the commission and this whole litany of sanctions as proved over the years to be nothing but a tool to relieve heads and hurt the weakest members of society the situation though is really tense right now and i think this is not the time for political posture and this is a time for everyone to sit down behind anyone shit and table and think about the shape and the future of syria that we want. there's also lots more on this story in our website also worth checking out there and online frenzy caused by a facebook post by one of the world's top female tennis players or yes robin only known for her skills on the cord but for courting publicity off it is said game set and match to her luscious long locks and shared her newest photos with the world's biggest online community. he's the worst nightmare for the occupy wall

street protesters now may be running for new york mayor as republicans push the top and why video officer for the big apple's top job. these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. operations rule the day. the controversial and take our feeding trade agreement or act may soon prove to be down in the water vote and it is due this summer but the m.p. responsible for monitoring its progress has already said it should be rejected the international deals aimed at enforcing intellectual property rights and fighting internet piracy twenty two countries and signed up to the agreements however europeans rose up against it saying it would give the. give big corporations and president control over the personal data political commentator look samuel says the

treaty exposes the undemocratic decision making in the e.u. . the real problem with artist reciprocally is how it shows that european union it's a foe to be allowed to do politics without any reference to national populaces so the fact is that this is a piece of. you know it's a trade agreement that will be studied certain obligations on european countries to make you know in certain ways but it still is europe it's european all making effectively barb. i want to show is that the european union have affectively created institutions and procedures which have prevented these kind of agreements coming under any kind of democratic scrutiny whatsoever but the real problem with it is true that countries have signed up to it but no point have national populaces have any say whatsoever in the provisions of this agreement so that's what really troubling aspect of it is the fact that it's fundamentally antidemocratic. now coming up next hour in our tease interview tom martin speaks to rick founder of the

swedish pirate party and he says internet freedom isn't something governments should take lightly. people woken up these rallies are huge i mean if you look at poland there the rallies that have already been are absolutely astounding and people are frankly demanding their rights act that means censorship of and there and that is not acceptable not to the generation growing up not of the people who understand what the net is about and that it's the greatest equalizer that mankind has ever invented and that's not something we're ready to give up frankly we're discovering things that just shouldn't be that the euro be european commission one the other day is that this is no big deal everybody will be free to keep sharing governmentally approved things and that's not what they should be saying they should say that you because you still have freedom of speach.
