u.n. monitors count thirty three children among the dead in western syrian town of houla where activists claim government troops have massacred more than ninety people. prime minister dmitry medvedev takes the reins of power at the life of russia promising to reform the country's biggest political force and get rid of all the people that discredited. and destroying dissent with elections ahead the georgia regime still got no appetite for opposition a year after violently disbursing independence day rally. it's four o'clock here in moscow welcome to our tea i'm to bomb would say let's

take a look at the news firstly u.n. monitors confirm tanks and heavy machine guns have been used to pound the was in syrian town of houla where activists say more than ninety people have been killed by government forces this week a u.n. report accused both the regime and the rebels of gross human rights violations and friends of the friends of syria group were there to remove president assad and fund the opposition condemned the violence and called an urgent meeting there are also reports that the free syria army is now refusing to abide by the u.n. peace plan to test their birth he's been covering events in syria for some time says politics has to go on the back burner when people are losing their lives daily . it's just absolutely devastating tragedy for those people confirmed killed for children there is no ceasefire to oversee it simply doesn't exist this crisis that was just becoming increasingly militarized and having this devastatingly high death toll and so we actually spoke to the deputy foreign minister in syria he is in

moscow just the other day i asked him where the final responsibility lies all. capital culture that. the ball is not in the court of a syrian government or of the syrian people it is in the court of those who do not want to see peace and stability and security in serbia but particularly those who are calling and declaring every now and then for arming the armed groups for also smuggling of arms and weapons into the syrian toda trade from neighboring countries and also financing these armed groups there is a proverb that says when you accuse others and the point your finger is accusing others just remember. accusation. you see the rhetoric right from the beginning of again the u.n.

monitors being there has been now before the plans even reached its three month deadline that it's a failure well ok but it's one thing to say terminologies but what is what's the alternative to constantly giving these problems without any other solution is only going to lead to further violence and you see in some of the western countries again continuing right through this peace plan calling for the arming of the opposition we know the answer traveling into the country you know all of this is undermining massively the u.n. a tense to implement a cease fire which is so important that you know that they're able to continue that work and get that done and i think it's very important to remember you know politics aside in this the human cost of this conflict is devastating and if the u.n. mission felt that it's going to get even higher. than it is already the security council going to civilian protection that is not going to even attempt to abide by

this cease fire to deeply concerning because this sort of thing this this peace plan raveling and we've heard for and we've heard from many many people this is the only viable option right now for ending the situation peacefully without further deaths it's not an easy process and whilst we were there with the u.n. observers here we traveled with them to some of the very very fierce fighting areas . and i could at the time in my report a civil war and i was very very wary of it in his words that it really is that extreme political analysts. believe the whole a massacre is likely to have been orchestrated by the rebels. it's the armed gangs behind that and the reason i say that is because these three massacres took place in the context of a broad attack against army roadblocks and security stations throughout the area they also attacked the national hospital in the region and they set fire to

the national hospital and then they turned to that civilian houses and some of the neighboring villages and they started killing and the scum in monthly and some of those killed some of the families killed were known for their loyalty to the syrian regime and to bashar al assad these people do not want to see a political solution instead they want to see an armed intervention and closure national foreign intervention and syria under the pretext of massacres i think the political timing is always very suspicious it would not make sense for the syrian army to commit these massacres and withdraw and then just let the rebels come and take photos and make documentaries about them and for these crimes were committed by the armed gangs that are supported from abroad from the g.c.c.

countries and from the nato specifically through turkey. prime minister dmitry medvedev has been appointed the chairman of the country's ruling united russia party his modernization mantra is already in evidence as invalid a major overhaul at the top as well as to hold primaries increased democratic competition within the party in mena that explains what to expect from the united russia's new leader. first and foremost he did say that the party is in need of some off some over wholly in order to be more modernized he did a call on the party members to be war active only internet she said that taxing more young voters and younger members of the party is crucial to the party's development you'll superposed primaries in order to create a greater competition within the party ranks he did say that the ruling posted in the party should be hard to acquire and basically he did outline some of the major

areas where the party should be working in order to progress not stand still she did say that there is a competition that the united russia is facing at the moment and they should be able to handle the competition to not be free of freight of criticism because after all it is in the in the disputes and in conversations where the truth is being born a basically he did outline and not particularly in any detail of his plan for the party but it does look like he's set on moving it forward he's also the first a prime minister to actually belong to a party by him and was in wasn't a member of the united russia. it's been eight years since georgian government forces broke up a rarely demanding present to be quids and opposition voices are still feeling the full force of suppression the clashes last may sorting people killed as police used water cannons and of bullets to disperse the crowds dozens were injured and harras hundreds arrested when officers tried to hear the way the country's independence day celebrations. hold parliamentary and presidential elections and later in the

year but as maria the national found out there's little to cheer for anyone who could change. process to start it to one of georgia's main television channels that slogan proclaims news is made here from the country's journalists charter complains that sometimes it's literally so and works equally for all georgian major broadcasters. they do not cover news they make it in their offices behind closed doors in georgia where there are only three national channels broadcasting news channel one a state ran while the owners of the two others are starting to see and imagine had close ties with georgian president mikheil saakashvili and his administration they are the main sources of information for the country's almost four point five million population ziad says the news reports of these three air often repeat each

other which raises concerns over the editorial independence especially as the country enters election season five months before parliament voting was just there quite black and white circus really is good opposition is bad but they really touch georgian politics at all when i watch it i have the feeling that there are no problems in georgia and their main mission is to entertain people not to inform them. other channels content is more diversified from the corruption in the country's elite and political prisoners to a controversial purchase by the president's mother of a historic bilton in central but to me for just one larry which is less than one us dollar but these are turning to the media sources can hardly get an audience outside the capital tbilisi organisers of the local authorities prevent us from broadcasting in the provinces alone we do have a license the people running the biggest company the former minister of defense and the head of the government communications committee who are also co owners of the

three biggest channels all of them are friends with the president apart from financial markets says the authorities practice other kinds of pressure to include in what he says is a feature of any offer it terry and regime. our journalists have been beaten up their equipment stolen and there's been no investigation do we really have freedom of press if our correspondents every time they go to an opposition rally have to wonder if they're going to be beaten or not irakli and used paper reporter says he has been beaten up twice in the last month by the presidents and interior ministers security for attempting to cover the events with the two top officials where only government approved media were invited. me here very hard and also yelled how did i come here at all that i would be blacklisted and would never find decent work and i think as elections approach such pressure will only get tougher but most of the population here in georgia get this news from spain own the safe and for the

media the press is among the most tightly mourning and there are not to these presidential and parliamentary elections a lot of independent information means voters will make it a season that is likely far from being informed and according to many often be very . brief nationality really see daughter. when it comes to free speech everywhere else so much of it is down to our rampant take up of social media but later we ask if your tired of tweets pokes and likes. one reason i think i'm deep in it social media strategy is because i am a little bit sick of it so it has to be really good later we are residents of the big apple what they think the future holds for popular networks. the i.m.f. chief is shouting no tears what troubled greece and demanding they sort out their own problems by paying their taxes christina god says she's got no intention of

softening the country's bailout terms even though acerbity and unemployment letter to rise in suicide social and political philosophy lecture. terrorism believes austerity will drain greece try i think she was honest insurer cynicism that's the cynicism all the ruling liberal elites might just not telling the truth i think that's a fair comparison between nigeria and greece was totally unjust but. world countries are facing the same rock canyon austerity packages the same structural adjustments the same embedded neo liberalism is not that money is going to be taken from greece and given to africa money is going to be taken is going to be what it's going to be looted from africa and the majority of the people in greece the tax evasion in greece but the problem is that the people who regularly are hurt taxes

and can't do it legitimately in greece are mainly those people the social strata let's check tailored i.m.f. policy that's big business big banks we must say that the terms of the loan agreement will imply layering taxes for big business big banks and raising taxes for the average wage earner. student groups in canada are making legal moves to overturn a law designed to suppress the three months of protests over a hike intuition fees and requires them to give eight hours notice ahead of the rally and the students say it's unconstitutional they came back authorities move to have only field of protesters anger with one hundred thousand taking part in a demonstration earlier this week the rallies have led to violent clashes with police and over two thousand five hundred arrests since february student newspaper editor corey poole thinks the movement is taking on the ever growing significance.

of the government is trying to make it a lot. to try to keep it as a student issue that it's a student issue led by simply students and. it can be it can be called with maybe some simple negotiation but i don't really think that is exactly the case and i feel that it's an ideological issue it's a movement that has grown beyond the simple fact which was an increase and now encompasses many many problems. that are being brought up in the government. mismanagement of funds corruption within the government and so mismanage and mismanagement of the university system and generally people are really upset and i don't think this issue will simply go away and it's not just came back that seeing anger growing as we report online approaches bill into the entire year to you as students pledge to stand shoulder to shoulder with those really in other cities. also at our deeds outcome of medals of despond the dissolution of american soldiers

throwing away their military decorations a wonderful what they regard as an unjust war. many muslims living in the united states are getting accustomed to the growing suspicion they get from law enforcement the government's justification is that it helps prevent terrorist attacks but the muslim community believes it's being unfairly victimized as my dinner and other reports. yes a fog prepares for his daily prayers fear creeps into the back of his mind as to whether the person next to him is a spy are you you know felt that there was a sense of mistrust that i wasn't sure about the people that were coming up the mosque if there was somebody new at the mosque that i had never seen and. i would always feel in the back of my mind that you know who is this person what are they here for a fight is one of many american muslims who came under the surveillance of the aphelion south in california what he thought was a fellow warship or at

a mosque turned out to be an informant the subject of monitoring muslims doesn't exactly come as a surprise to many in the u.s. this is been happening all across the country simply because so many will soon to cross the country are getting visited on a regular basis by a p.r. agents for doing joint terrorism task force officers so many are having problems now the consul of american islamic relations in california is suing the agency for what it says is an attempt to incriminate people based simply on their religion that the muslims are what the outcome americans were the fifty's sixty's seventy's i think it's a war a religious war i think it's part of. the sims based on their religion. this is a war on islam. and islam craig monte was an aft be an informant sent to infiltrate the muslim community in south in california he says that while

the f.b.i. insist it's acting to defend the u.s. from potential terrorist attacks and slapping suspicion on an entire religious group people here say americans have their mind sent to mistrust arabs and muslims and it's not simply because of the identification of the nine eleven hijackers but more from a decade of missed and is being. fine by hollywood as jihadists islamic extremists and terrorists. are right but people here believe the problem is far greater and concerns many minority communities targeted because of their free and there it's nice to see. this not just about the muslim community because what happens is that our constitutional freedoms start getting weakened for everybody and we're starting to see that more and more because we have allowed this

to happen it means for a fod and many others in minority communities nationwide they will be forced to live life looking over their shoulders even in their own country i have to constantly watch myself it's almost like there's you know mental check that i have to constantly put myself through whenever i visit or go to the mosque or go to events with the community because you never know somebody that might be listening might be enough behind format mind you the question archie reporting from los angeles california now over a billion people use the likes of facebook and twitter but unless we are asking if we're all getting a bit wary of being wired. social media websites have been making headlines for years is the crazies coming to an end anytime soon this week let's talk about that do you use social media i use to

actually just lead to my facebook why am i just getting tired of it says trying to keep up with everyone do you think the world is getting a little bit over social media yeah a lot of it yes because you know when mom start using social media time to go my grandma is actually using it do you know why not because i don't like being tried to like the like putting too much of my bills or information on is going to push when it looks a photo used to or i love you when professionals like linked in but the like the product public ones like of it has to be very specific to be their use or what some of you some people put a little too much information on there i think yet why do we care about what people eat and what they're doing every factory and every meal they you know but it's a good way to keep in touch with people too so what about the phone what about you know going over to your neighbor's thousands a high exactly i think people are getting away from that and it's too easy to just do it all online nowadays i think there's a lot of good uses for there are some uses we found in the school system not so

good like what some of the bullying that goes on and i think there's too many young people are kind of think what's a big deal if i give somebody a threat over there where i've. seen police officers get involved with kids who do those kinds of things because it's it's a threat whether it's on facebook or person so do you think that social media is going to change to be a little bit safer or is it just going to get worse i think it needs to change and i think it takes everybody to get more with it to understand it's a actually do social media strategy for a job yet your life depends on social media i'm a little bit i do other things as well but it's one of them yes the use it every day in your personal life i do one reason i think that i'm even a social media strategy is because i. am a little bit sick of it but we have to be really good right it just seems to be so omnipresent now that i think there's something bigger and greater and better going to come about. the second coming going to come there's the media and workers twitter about our need to be part of jesus that's what i'm sure he has. so do you

think the social media great is coming to an end why don't you tweet about it and b. if anyone cares. i was lori huff and as they are residents in new york city they are asking the social media question now around the world in brief it runs the point u.n. agency says evidence of enrich uranium found at an underground bunker with due to a technical glitch officials discovered traces that when twenty seven percent which is higher than previously thought the west respect iran of building nuclear weapons which require you rain i'm enraged up to ninety percent to run denies the allegations. financial irregularities and internal conflicts at the vatican have been exposed and the pope's butler has been arrested for the leaks but his day he was in illegal possession of confidential documents including letters

allegedly corruption at the church's highest levels the vatican is already sweeping on the author of a book containing memos between the pope and his personal secretary. a u.s. drone strike has killed at least four people in pakistan the missiles hit a house in the country's or was it is done tribal region security officials say those killed with taliban militants relations between the u.s. and the slum about have been tens of thousands twenty four pakistani soldiers were killed in a nato air strike last november. one hundred twenty million fans have been glued to their t.v.'s to see sweden win this year's your vision song contest there followed by russia with serbia close behind but not all countries have enjoyed full support at home ukraine has seen some division over its entry in the final and as our legs the ski reports the country song for europe is stirring in undercurrent of racism. the

song be my guest sounds like an invitation singer guy who is representing ukraine at the eurovision song contest says its message is positive that her country opens its arms to any guest but the reaction of ukraine's nationalists that is being performed by a woman with african roots suggests quite the opposite. the jury which decided by turner should go was very biased they didn't let real ukrainian singers go to europe vision like how she sings but now people might get an impression that ukraine is a country somewhere in africa. the daughter of a ukrainian mother and the congolese father may have been heard by this attitude but still try to play down with a smile i don't like it to a season i hate when people. have so much negatively in this. i hate it when people try to choose you like a friend because you why do you black. this is no isolated

racism among ukraine's nationalists over the years they've been making the ideology known in other ways deemed offensive by many from attacking war veterans on victory day last year or cooking eggs and bacon on kiev's eternal flame which commemorates fall in red army soldiers all the previous actions of ukraine's right wing radicals have been mostly acts of hooliganism they have rarely made headlines especially in the global media but with the euro twenty eight well football championship coming to ukraine some pundits in the west believe this is about to change reporter brian flynn from britain sun newspaper disguised himself as a right wing sympathizer to go undercover into a nationalist field cam in western ukraine his food a shows them firing weapons and using explosives this military wing of nationalists has what it takes to wreck some real haversack full in believes their destructive skills could be employed. quite soon with football hooligans being among those

trained at the camp with the very clear about a number of of things that their ideology sort of points of action of is one of them is is a belief that there should be no black players playing for european clubs as one of the generals told me it wouldn't it's not fair it should be england against ukraine not ukraine against england and africa as well as make clear that any black fans going to ukraine should should be very careful it is clear to me that these are people very serious about what they do they train physically to back it up with violence and i watched what they fired live weapons. the danger of major violence at the football event may still be averted if authorities take action but another great risk looms for ukraine the ruling party is losing ground and september's vote may bring some of those radicals into parliament. nowadays no one would be surprised to see the nazi salute at folk festivals in western ukraine or

nationalist some regional powers in other parts peace can still take action against neo nazis and much of the very same people will have parliamentary immunity and an unlimited past form in parliament to spread their ideas to young people ukraine's right wing nationalist align themselves in glorifying everything ukrainian at the same time they are strongly supportive of their country's european integration but with increasingly vocal zina for big and racist statements it's hard to imagine brussels listening to their opinions on ukraine becoming an e.u. member state should they make it to power. r.t. reporting from kiev in ukraine. that's all i have for you for now saturday's orders coming up next in a little while in twenty minutes and we're getting active before that as well. after the headlines which are the way states and.
