mineta parliament has been dissolved in addition to that which i think is backed by the army and was also a prime minister in the mubarak era has been given the green light to remain in the presidential race the decision also reverts to legislative authority back to the ruling military and the military really holds executive authority in this country and to a new president is elected so you have this very worrying situation where a president will be elected in the absence of a constitution and also in the absence of a parliament so at this stage there are more questions than answers the official line from the muslim brotherhood is to respect the decision of the court we heard as much from their candidate dr mohamed morsi although he did warn that it could be more dangerous consequences and he did say in fact that if there were any kind of mishaps in the elections and he would support people going back to the streets there there have however been leading voices within the muslim brotherhood that

have denounced the decision of the court and the phrase being used is that this is a fully fledged coup and we're hearing that kind of criticism from across the political spectrum on wednesday the justice ministry decreed that the military police and intelligence services half of whites to arrest and detain civilians and that in addition has sent out alarm bells to me it seems as if the emergency law that was only recently lifted could very well be reintroduced so you have these political developments that are causing people like mohamed el baradei who is the former head of the united nations atomic energy agency to call on the military and the court to disposing elections the concern is that these elections will be overshadowed by violence the concern is also that the country will slide back into detroit and the other concern is that whichever candidate is elected as president will have powers that at this stage seemingly are unlimited. ortiz policy reporting force there now cairo based human rights activist nor' nor' has told r.t.

the current situation resembles mubarak era egypt and that the military council and the muslim brotherhood's political ambitions are to blame let us not forget that for the last year and a half the supreme council of armed forces had designed the transitional phase in such a way to eliminate any form of opposition or any form of alternative to the supreme council of armed forces and it was because of the behavior of the muslim brotherhood over the last eighteen months their behavior of completely abandoning the revolution and running after seats in parliament for the presidency that campaigns such as this which means boycotting boycotting campaigns were established several weeks ago in order to encourage people not to give egypt an easy to these elections simply because they were placed by the supreme council of armed forces. and of course we'll be following egypt's historic presidential

runoff throughout the weekend don't miss our special coverage right here on r.t. . champion the longest. remnant of a tyrannical. rabble to. each subscriber. is still to come. reports of fresh u.s. drone strikes in pakistan keep pouring in despite the country's officials demanding a halt to the attacks which they say are against international law at least three people have been killed in the latest incident and as washington continues to defend its tactics the civilian death toll in the country keeps rising artie's going to church can explains. reports about you was drone strikes in pakistan coming more and more often we're getting used to hearing in the media such and such

number of terrorists was killed with no way to verify really there are no names attached to those numbers usually but earlier this month american officials proudly announced that a drone strike in pakistan killed one of his top commanders almost two weeks later a video with the same man and. it was posted online with titles which are generally reserved for the living other al qaeda leaders have not confirmed or denied levy's death the video could have been taped before he's that's true so he might as well be dead but the confusion has once again raised the question of who's really dying in those bombings and how much do we actually know because it's all very murky what we do know is that the obama administration has dramatically ramped up drone strikes in pakistan around story hundred strikes since he took office it's this area bordering afghanistan which is on the fire but judging by the intensity of the u.s. strikes there one thing that only terrorists leave there that's not the case of course

the long investigative journalism says more than eight hundred civilians died in those bombings among them almost two hundred children what's interesting for a year u.s. officials are all together denied civilian deaths in drone strikes but reports on the ground told the opposite and thousands of people protesting furiously in pakistan told the opposite then that was the last straw of the aerial strike which killed two dozen pakistani soldiers last year by mistake diplomatic have a follow up between the u.s. and pakistan pakistan blocked supply routes to afghanistan and they still remain closed by the way a new wave of extremism has been steered by those strikes but it's also interesting u.s. officials have been directly accused this bureau of investigative journalism which works to shed light on civilian deaths in those drone strikes of helping terrorists one. might argue that this label terrorist helper is becoming an all too convenient tool for the government to brush off investigative journalists and then there was

this yemeni journalist who reported about the drone strike in yemen in two thousand and nine twenty one woman and fourteen children died there the journalist is now in jail reportedly at the personal request of president obama himself. there's this line of thought in washington. it's all perfectly fine as long as we're fighting the bad guys the president approves the list of those bad guys by the way the kill list on secret evidence with no review but does the argument we're fighting the bad guys mean that the world should keep quiet about the execution of innocent people in washington i'm going to check out. the syrian government is warning of possible suicide bomb attacks in mosques in damascus after it arrested a man with ties to an al qaeda linked group the suspect is said to have confessed he was going to blow himself up in the center of the capital syria is currently

seeing one of the most serious escalation in violence since an international truce was brokered two months ago but there is now growing doubt in the western media over the government's involvement in the atrocities with reports also implicating rebels in the bloodshed some journalists went as far as claiming been set up by the opposition to come under fire from government forces mother agnes mario of a christian monastery in syria claims she received one of the first accounts from a recent massacre she said training the conflict in black and white terms is unacceptable. we wanted to fight us in the word and to have flown to the scene though to tell you what the native world would end the people they have seen no media and carrying out a nation and hospital in delgado could. arms of blankets after ministry of health screening them to assemble then in

demolitions thinks it's a last ditch attempt to attract attention to their plight. i think this is an act of desperation they've turned to these radio courts for years and years and years israeli activists have gone down to try to resist the demolitions there's been international campaigns against a jewish national fund which is behind the demolitions of these homes and nothing has helped israel comes back common time and time again to demolish the homes of this small bedouin community that's been there since for hundreds of years and i think this is simply it's kind of a gimmick in a way to say to the world look we have no more redress you know in the end there in the court of last resort is public opinion in other words if we can really put israel on the spot and really reveal what's going on here and to bring it into the international news and let the u.n. and the international community start to deal with this i think we have

a chance through public opinion and international law to force the israeli government to do justice even towards its own arab citizens. and while the international community fails to make israelis respect the rights of their neighbors tel aviv turns a blind eye to another burning issue israel's blockade of gaza poses a serious threat to the health of people in the region says a recent report. the e.u. cares more about enforcing its borders then people's lives that's the damning conclusion reached in the latest report by amnesty international human rights group claims that europe actively aims to prevent africa from reaching its shores endangering the lives of asylum seekers there are now increasing calls from critics to hold

government accountable for the treatment of immigrants and as archie's ties are silly reports of those who do manage to reach europe face increasing discrimination . it may be called the european union but discord is right and the swing to the extreme is becoming a little more mainstream especially when it comes to discourse on immigration and in some cases leads to outright violence from norway. to greece. to hungary. in our streets girls a rape was molested and insulted by gangs of. recent elections in france and greece showed a big gains for the far right and immigrants say they've increasingly been on the receiving end of prejudice in many forms. in all of europe a woman with a bill can go into any shop and buy anything she wants but who build woman cannot work in this shop but what is in the report is the discrimination and racism in the

everyday life to people are facing because they don't report because they don't trust the police so every time you get in. on the street or issue in this town one that you have. reports and click at two thousand and ten report by the european network against racism and discrimination found that racially discriminatory practices are widespread institutional in nature and practiced at all levels of society across europe in two thousand and eight the european commission proposed a directive that would ban discrimination on the grounds of age disability religion or belief and sexual orientation in all areas including social protection and advantages as well us access to goods and services now the current law only applies to the workplace but it's been four years and the directive is stuck largely because some member states are blocking it arguing that implementation would be too costly this activists say is one of the many failures of policymakers and while

immigrants are blamed by politicians on the right for failure to integrate others say it's the authorities which have not done enough. it was afraid. to. i never knew that if there is a policy it's not the full. of those who lead the policy of europe's economic troubles which are preoccupying leaders show no sign of ending soon but the race and immigration issues they've left are solved could prove just as big a political time bomb tests are cilia r.t. brussels. the problems of extremism and intolerance in the e.u. are widely overshadowed by the block's current economic headaches governments across the world are preparing for market panic ahead of the greek vote this weekend the outcome of which could determine the country's eurozone future. does exit britain announced some one hundred billion pounds will be pumped into its own banks to defend against any backlash author and commentator professor philip bagus

says a greek exit may spark a europe wide chain reaction. well now it looks like that spain will need. once this is happened probably italy will need one and then we have suppression of greece if greece actually exits the euro this. legal and ministry of president so markets investors within the congress could leave and hold most of the press and presidents for countries like finland and germany to say well we may actually leave if you don't get your i was this in more of the earth so then they would have a more credible threat. to push other countries to do the necessary stuff so it's very open how this all ends but i fear that in in the end of the e.c.b. really it's too political pressure and start running the printing press but. now

it's time to take a look at some other stories from around the world this hour. seven people including four police officers have been injured as striking coal miners clashed in northern spain with police the protesters blocked roads and fired missiles from homemade rocket launchers after the government slashed money subsidy subsidies by two thirds mining is an integral part of spain's already ailing economy and the cuts could spell the end for the industry in the country. japanese police have arrested the last suspect linked to the deadly gas attack on tokyo's subway seventeen years ago the fifty four year old was arrested after staff in an internet cafe reported seeing someone entering the fugitives description the man belongs to a cult a group which had access to chemical and biological weapons thirteen people were killed and thousands more were injured in the nine hundred ninety five plot. for me

this hour i'll be back with a recap of the headlines in just a bit but right now the head of crucial international talks in moscow on iran's nuclear program r.t. hears from the country's top nuclear negotiator saeed jalili. another round of talks on the iranian nuclear issue is about to begin in moscow is it likely to produce any tangible results while to discuss that we are now joined

by iran's chief nuclear negotiator say jelly thank you very much for your time sir we have seen so many rounds that produce so little results and the expectations at this moment at pretty low what do you think should be done in order for these new round of talks to be a success or. in the name of the most gracious the most merciful we have always said between our actions we are guided by clear logic we do welcome dialogue we have always been open to corporation and talks with different countries on a wide range of issues including corporation in nuclear energy but there needs to be a certain strategy if we stick to the same strategy to the same approach then the prospects for the talks are promising iranian nuclear facilities have been targeted by here to other cyber attack and we don't know there are regions of these attacks where there are a lot of speculations on the subject i would like to ask you how serious this threat is and whether the sophistication of this kind of attacks is crying over

time. you know that iran's nuclear activities are entirely under the control of the i.a.e.a. you see all the activity. as we're currently conducting or in full compliance with the nuclear nonproliferation treaty all the nuclear activities are equipped with i.a.e.a. surveillance cameras that's an accord with i.a.e.a. rules in fact the international community is now concerned about quite a different thing why do some people take the liberty to speak out against activities that are peaceful controlled by the i.a.e.a. and in compliance with the n.p.t. if this opposition does not boil down to cyber attacks alone the international community is now openly asking why some of our scientists working at peaceful nuclear facilities are targeted by terrorists these people's names are on the least of those the un security council has introducing sions against this makes the

terrorists feel free to exterminate the blacklisted people so the question is what is the relation between the terrorists and the security council and of the question why do some people commit subversive acts against a country involved in legitimate and peaceful activities shockingly enough the openly admits that this is all they're doing these phrases yet another question that why does the international community that claims to live under the rule of law accept a situation when all the rules are violated and countries seeking to exercise their legitimate rights are discriminated against this kind of discrimination is not limited to one country only you must be aware that luckily enough neither terror attacks and nor cyber attacks nor other acts of intimidation have done any harm or stop to the progress of uranium people on air israeli officials are

discussing the possibility of a military strike against iran. if israel israel ever decides to go it had. the united states. iran has been concerned over this issue for many years now this has to do with the belligerent and illegitimate nature of the zionist regime and i think these kinds of statements help to reveal their true nature these kind of statement shows that the regime is keen to achieve its goals by capturing invading brandishing its military might time and again this regime thinks it has the right to make these statements and threaten the whole world higher this regime is as weak as ever and it's orthorexic. the only thing that is clear is that the world is aware of its militaristic and hawkish nature and that any steps taken by the regime are illegitimate still the

regime continues to operate on the wrong and illegitimate basis we are well aware there be iranian leadership or supporters of russia in what he describes as he struggled with terrorism organizations in syria giving bloody care of this conflict what do they make sense for. our laws as their side of it but rather as a sort of sacrifice to prevent many more deaths. another issue that we've brought up of the talks in istanbul and baghdad is that we are prepared to discuss regional issues including the situation in bahrain syria and other similar issues we think the resists simple solution to them and it boils down to one thing you need to respect the people to respect democracy if the international community demonstrates a genuine desire to debate these issues then we could come up with

a very viable solution we have consistently called for these in regard to syria but there are two problems in syria first its people demand reforms and they need to be introduced. we respect to these aspirations and believe that it's the syrian people that should decide on the ultimate solution but any outside interference will not help it's wrong to supply weapons or train terrorists these actions will never be in line with be interests of the syrian people and syrian people must be empowered to take their own decisions on the reforms which would be unacceptable to supply arms or support terrorists and so on and it will only result in more casualties among civilians and bloodshed this is the wrong path to success.

today children play war in the old case maybe. but in june nine hundred forty one these walls were the first barrier for the nazi troops on their way to moscow. sunders embrace those who were dying one by one under siege useless without food water coming. down the line a shoulder to shoulder left a few simple words. farewell mother. dying but i'm not sure. if you're followed up on my death fueled rather than they.
