a surge of anti islam sentiment in the u.k. inspired by norway's mass killer on their spread it leads to fears similar attacks could take place in britain. fresh crackdown on pro-democracy demonstrators in bahrain and a lack of condemnation from western governments prompts questions over their selective approach to the arab spring or fall. and post the unarmed warns of violence in syria continuing despite the soup's fire truck thing and urgently for the expansion of the un observer mission there. thanks for joining our team this wednesday as two o'clock here in moscow and i'm karen taraji while the trial of self-confessed mass killer on the display of it

continues there are fears last year's massacre in norway might be one day repeated in other european countries a u.k. anti-fascist group has warned his anti islam rhetoric could be inspiring extremists followers worldwide and more must be done to stop it and in britain which has a number of towns considered hotbeds of the far right the trend is especially worrisome arches over bennett reports. this is also considered the breeding ground of far right to extremism in the u.k. it's on to a large muslim community but also to the english defense league who are now considered one of the most dangerous groups of the global county jihad movement it started as a gang of football hooligans and in just three years its ranks have swelled to more than seventy thousand all united against what they call the threat to the same ideology inspired no we. and mass murderer anders behring breivik and now it's on

the rise according to a report by a u.k. anti fascism group a worldwide counter jihad network has surged since predicts attacks with over one hundred far right groups in europe alone it names e.t.l. leader tommy robinson a key figure given that they just some far left organization again i'd say things that when we express how we feel we're called far right extremist so you say you're not far right one not far right now i'm not for any right none of my views for follow islam is for islam the speaker it's not it's responsible for a thousand nine hundred terrorist attacks of september eleventh there were about one in one man breivik praised the deal in his manifesto calling them a blessing campaigners fear these views could inspire a similar attack in britain if the government doesn't crack down soon matthew collins is a former far right fascist who's now switched sides we've being or the government

for two years is for separately on the so you must. you must view the deal as we do the radical islamic groups the problem is that they inspire people they organize people they fill people's heads there are people in the deal who actually do think they are some kind of religious crusaders often extremist groups can be the trigger for somebody to do something something quite unpleasant quite nasty britain is considered a hotbed of far right extremism with sixteen anti islamic groups operating here the report classes the british freedom party is one of them its chairman paul weston it was another cited by brick highlighting a blog that claimed the west is fighting a european civil war against islam but i'm not saying go out and commit violence and the most astonishing thing about this for me is it is the whole breivik thing has been picked up picked up on by the media with no documentary evidence of any

so-called right wing movements say their issues whereas when the islam it is clear that you'll blog posts as an inspiration to him amongst others several of these are these are simply that they may well be an inspiration to but we cannot do you know we cannot say nothing simply because there might be some lone psychopath somewhere in europe groups like the british freedom party and the e.t.l. still aren't considered far right all extremists by the or thora sees the two recently joined forces and planned to run in the next round of local elections the worry for anti fascist campaigners is that they could attract support on the bennetts r.t. luton. and from the rise of far right ideology in europe to left wing views there and in the u.s. that and much more in the second edition of julian assange interview shell watch the program that's caused a media storm on both sides of the atlantic you can log on to start r.t.

dot com to watch them fall. if you're just joining r.t. it's five minutes past the hour and baccarin security forces are showing no signs of letting up on pro-democracy protesters firing tear gas and water cannon at hundreds marching in the capital the year long uprising intensified during last weekend's formula one grand prix with anti regime activists using it to attract global attention but as if you know goal scorer reports once the race finished foreign scrutiny also hit the brakes. for centuries it has been known as the pearl of the persian gulf but recent months have seen behind lose its luster.

violence between the country's shia muslim majority population and the sunni minority in government threatens not just to do. but since shock waves through other nations that are heavily invested in the islands of stability such as the united states the dilemma of the u.s. faces and bahrain is a tough one on the one hand washington feels at least a blog to say something about the continuing standoff between the protesters and the police on the other hand behind his home to the u.s. fifth fleet the largest american base in the oil rich gulf region just a stone's throw away from iran and to lose an ally as valuable as bahrain would be disastrous for washington. western politicians wasted no time in jumping on the arab spring bandwagon with fiery condemnations of the regimes in countries like egypt libya and syria yet suspiciously flies below their rhetorical

radar the bahraini regime is playing a very dangerous game now of course has a majority against its own government and seeing a very sort of the end of days many people are expecting now of course there are huge arms deals with american british dealers that the bahraini government will be able to use against the protesters the american government lost no time to criticize russia's interest in syria but to explain why it renewed its fifty three million dollars arms sales contract with bahrain even the year after a bloody crackdown on protesters on the island one cannot deny the fact that this is very important for the interests of the united states that the king remains in power and that there is full of the. by the king and his people to crush any.

democratic calls for example for the removal of the american bases from this part of the world as any country any sovereign country would wouldn't want them bases on its territory when it's not necessary but want to have a foreign base in its shores for years the countries rulers feared iran which laid claim to the islands several times the last being in one nine hundred seventy one having more than four thousand american military personnel on the ground may be viewed by the bahraini government as insurance. but for some it's out of date and running out of time. the irony about the persian gulf dictatorships is they don't really need to be submissive at all they do have energy power and the facts of these persian gulf dictators continue to be so. to washington and even london displays what kind of colonial mentality must surround these dictatorships families

being left alone to sort out a solution isn't easy but. they at least acknowledge transgression against their own civilians in the ugly scenes between protesters and police was that a human rights violations and behave yes but they were human rights violations and there are human rights violations in. oh to be saying is it allowed no it's not a. choice we are looking at today and we are in whichever direction both three may be heading the worst seems to be the other way no matter how high the cost for these islands people. go r.t. crean. still had on the program following the money we report on how soaring unemployment forces on americans to seek jobs and i've found growing market from home in india. also coming up and support next hour conquering of the elements we follow

a team of young explorers to one of the coldest regions on earth as they ski to the north pole and have plenty of fun along the way. international peace envoy kofi annan has warned there is still an unacceptable level of violence in syria despite the agreed ceasefire he also called for a speedier deployment of an advance team of u.n. monitors that would verify reports of bloodshed by both the government and armed rebels and as archie's going to can reports the observers as mission is a crucial part of any peace process. kofi annan has expressed particular alarm at reports that government troops entered the syrian city of hama firing automatic weapons and said eve confirmed the firing is unacceptable earlier the spokesman for the envoy said the syrian government is not fully complying with the plan which was generally supported by the international community in which the syrian government claims it remains committed to the plan stressed the need to withdraw army tanks

from populated areas and according to the un envoy they have satellite images which show that the tanks are still on the ground and that is seen as a violation of the six point plan but in order to get a full picture of what's going on satellite images are not enough and kofi annan stressed the need to increase the number of international observers on the ground to one hundred by the end of the month just earlier the u.n. security council approved the deployment of three hundred un observers the forefront group if you want observers is already in syria and everyone agrees that the u.n. needs more eyes on the ground to make sure that all sides of the conflict are doing their part because the plan addresses government forces as well as opposition forces and you do have people there who don't like the plan the opposition has not come up with a common response or whether they're going to engage in a dialogue with the government to work out a political solution to the crisis and that dialogue is also part of the plan as far as the u.s. washington says it supports the plan but at the same time they kind of expect it's

failure here is what secretary of state hillary clinton said the u.s. is preparing for the potential failure of kofi annan plan to end the violence in syria and will take additional steps against the syrian government if it does russia on the other hand sees kofi annan plan as the only way to bring about peace in syria and the you want observer mission as crucial to verify whether everyone is committed to it just this tuesday the rebels blew up an army truck in damascus there have been several attacks around damascus in the same day all targeted at the security forces several people were killed so you still have well armed militia there who are of course no match to the syrian army but according to the plan they too have to abide by eat and they too have to stop killing. but atlanta. believes that the balanced approach of kofi annan peace plan has power dr quink fail to receive full international support hopefully the observers are

going to be deployed is such a fashion that they are not only going to be able to monitor the movements so for the government forces but also the activities of the opposition government forces the play polo they know that the rebels the armed opposition is going to buy their put in their places the west it what they really want is the fall of the syrian government. it's probable that the washington. actually don't like the coffin because they feel is just about their off time that they want to call for the peace bloc is to east to lengthen in the state power or for in the assad regime there should be a commitment not just by the security council and the sending of monitors but also a serious commitment on the part of the west and also the it goes cooperation because two states is such a saudi arabia qatar which has the money first recently before they are going to

pay the salaries of the arm of the rebels to provide that we pose with supplies they say with turkey. parties so we should not see spoke to much of spirits course the president of the european center for geo political analysis who believes media manipulation played a large part in escalating the syrian conflict the full interview is coming your way later this hour but here's a quick look. when it comes to syria you have to take into account the most important factor which are the media i mean the media manipulation of that conflict the t.v. channels well i don't want to make them an advertisement here but like al jazeera or. i which are definitely working for the cause of the rebels there and which are making fake science or ever and i have some real books that i would use for creating artificial sense of for fighting so there were pressures from the

government to force. we know perfectly know about. this part of the opposition which is let's say devoted to all the goals of peaceful transformation of the system and of economical transformation of the change of the social policing is not using guns and rifles. you're just joining r t it's fifteen minutes past the hour and media hype growing around comments made by russia's chief of general staff over iran's nuclear capability i'm a proud of was being interviewed for our t. spotlight program when news outlets still seized on his remarks about whether tech posed a threat let's hear about what was really said our correspondent barton can tell us more tom can you put this into context for us. absolutely karen the general was interviewed and asked about the possible threat from

a number of countries regarding specifically nuclear threats nuclear missiles including north korea and iran and general mccurry of the head of the armed forces general staff said that yes that threat was indeed always present and that without specifying directly iran the number of countries could possibly present that threat iran involved at the moment with heated in the ongoing diplomatic exchanges regarding its nuclear ambitions and it is that threat that is central in the u.s. reasoning behind its missile defense plans in eastern europe the general was keen to state that it has long been russia's position that the pursuit of a missile defense shield against these possible threats should be pursued together with russia u.s. nato plans to put that missile shield in eastern europe without russian involvement would result in responses both diplomatic and military because of the undermining

of of russia's nuclear capability that full interview will be played tomorrow on r.t. and you can watch it here throughout the day hour and thanks for that live update art there. the caretaker dutch prime minister is still desperate to push through a budget cuts and has called on lawmakers to help him the government collapsed on monday when mark reiter resigned as it failed to agree on painful measures demanded by brussels a political crisis has already been described as a revolt against enforced the austerity u.k. based journalist and blogger neil clark says there is every chance now the netherlands will abandon the l. but he believes it would be disastrous for the single currency. the big divide across europe and not just in the south but in the north as well is between the people and the elite the people have had enough of austerity and they're now being told that because of this absolutely insane if you school act which was agreed at

the end of last year that they've got to be fifteen billion in cuts fifteen billion cuts in government spending and this basically will destroy the whole and it will destroy the economy it will destroy the good life that the dutch people have been used to over the years and i'm surprised that the dutch saying it's enough if all and were to leave the euro and that's not such a far fetched idea now that it is it might have appeared a few years ago but it really is game over because hollande has been a strong ally of germany in the kind of drive towards the euro as he could be in always flow and basically the dutch people are going to be the important players in here because they are being asked to keep this euro going to make enormous sacrifices and why should they this is what people are saying and so i think it is the and we're also bringing a full coverage of the eurozone financial crisis online r t v dot com and there's plenty more there too including top floor or terrorist find out why u.s.

security staff suspected it might be the latter detaining a young girl for questioning. also online and the risky maneuver known as the sandwich is set to be performed for the queen the prestigious kremlin and let's try and score see more of the stunts and read about the special occasion at r.t. dot com. all right let's now take a look at other news from around the world this hour pakistan has successfully test launched an upgraded ballistic missile capable carrying of. a nuclear warhead it's believed to be able to hit targets within a range of three thousand kilometers a few days ago neighboring india held a similar missile trial the two countries which have fought three wars since the

one nine hundred forty seven have routinely carried out weapons tests in recent years. u.s. presidential hopeful mitt romney has swept through another round of republican primaries winning all five of tuesday's state elections after claiming victories in connecticut delaware new york pennsylvania and rhode island romney criticized president obama saying a better america starts tonight romney is still hundreds of delegates shy of officially claiming the republican nomination though his closest rival rick santorum dropped out of the race two weeks ago. the u.s. justice department has filed the first criminal charges over the gulf of mexico oil disaster accusing the former b.p. engineer of destroying evidence he's accused of deleting around two hundred text messages with information about how efforts to tap the leaking well were failing eleven workers died and more than two hundred million gallons of crude oil spewed

into the sea on a rig exploded two years ago it was the worst offshore oil disaster in u.s. history. employing a low wage workers abroad has long been a staple of the american business model however india a popular destination of outsourcing has turned the tables taking advantage of a struggling u.s. economy and doing big business and the west. explains. infosys is india's second largest i.t. company and has been a pioneer of outsourcing using highly skilled indian staff on low wages working for western clients but with recession in the west the boots on the other foot infosys is now one of several top indian firms recruiting in the u.s. with over twelve million jobless many in america are willing to work for less pay the u.s. is also providing tax breaks to indian firms keen to woo those offering much needed

jobs there is of course a particular for sure because of the high i'm number i meant in the u.s. to do and creates companies to go to court again is one of the reasons why we had according there there are incentives for companies to set up operations in the u.s. most states. businesses to come while infosys predicts a quarter of its staff will come from outside india in a decade another tech firm ages already has five thousand american workers and plans to hire ten thousand more in the next three years. are. far from that long. with indian companies winning more work in the u.s. using local staff also makes good business sense one of the biggest reasons indian

companies are expanding their workforce is in the united states is they're making a lot of money there and focus is generating fixed a five percent of its revenue in north america and indeed outsourcing companies as a whole are generating fifty percent of their revenue there or thirty billion dollars indian i.t. firms are increasing their global operations at a record pace coming from one of the fastest growing economies in the world but the domestic by. whom has driven wages higher in india further making recruitment in the west more attractive to some companies while washington has repeatedly spoken out against offshoring of american jobs it looks like the east might just be bailing it out from its jobless crisis preassure either r t bangalore india. are amarin is here joining us from the business das how are the markets looking marina i can follow the markets are doing surprisingly well i'm saying surprisingly

because we now know that the british economy shrank for the second consecutive quarter and the g.d.p. loss point two percent this is something of course that normally would have investors panic and but not this time around this would take a look at the european markets there are we see that both the footsie and the quite well that that's in fact one percent over one percent today and of course we remember that on tuesday it was dropping three percent so a significant turnaround there and investors they will also be waiting to see what happens when the u.s. federal reserve meets and will be of course reporting on the outcome of that as soon as that happens if we take a look at the russian markets a similar picture both for both the arts yes and the mindsets of them while the my six adding almost a half a percent this hour they are minimizing earlier gains that i have to tell us like to look at the main movers on the my six hundred two majors are still doing quite well we see that gas form is up over one percent bucking the trend is polymath so i have to post and worse than expect the grid so it's another one zone well is

a b t b and they're adding half a percent this hour and that's the spike missing out of this forecast for two thousand and eleven financial report but we spoke to the company's c.f.o. herbert moss and he talked to us with oversells. their record results so to be very happy to report today and that income of ninety point five billion rubles is just over three billion u.s. dollars. the to be has never earned that much money. the year we grew in that profit by sixty five percent to get a pretty pretty significant improvement there so speaking about efficiency if you look at the average western european banks it's somewhere around for the last year somewhere around six percent the average our real american banks is around nine percent so here we t.b.s. showing a very respectable fifteen percent ari in the global context. ok quick look at the

currencies out there you can see on the screen bureau is gaining against the dollar when it comes to the ruble it's also seeing gains against the both the major currencies and when it comes to crude prices are heading higher and of course we've seen soaring oil prices if we can switch to oil or are about to see them as i believe there would go and soaring oil prices have really close that they all and gas in the street the scene here and in fact this is expected to hike a quarter of results of american gas and oil majors which are expected to have a nice later this week but analysts are saying that they're concerned with such high oil prices and how they can the fact in economies and they're saying that there are risks involved and even russia cannot avoid those. increases. budget surplus or pull so impersonal that expenditure on their mind difference because it's succumbing to. the pull the is the when you're either coming to see

your income or the sun in the united states are not the order of so world. for our systems our expenses on that are. in the circle on comes a part of the world should be those great some of the problems we have here. this is the. very it's substantial capital flows will sort of negative that source in stock market. and that's our business right now for this hour karyn back to you now and thanks for that update. right now our interview is only a few minutes away after our wrap up of our top story.
