this is weekly news of iran the very latest developments welcome to the program. as egyptians await the delayed results of last weekend's presidential election huge crowds of protesters are again filling cairo's tahrir square the epicenter of last year's revolution. has the very latest now. if we look at the protests that happened in egypt for example eighteen months ago those protests were very much directed at ousting the former egyptian president hosni mubarak what we witnessing today is the same kind of anger on the streets of egypt but this time it is being directed against the ruling military the many egyptians feel it is trying to keep its grab on power in this follows a recent announcement by the military that it had drawn did an interim constitution also that it was responsible for pointing those people who would write the final

constitution egypt's courts also have recently dissolved the parliament and now you need to remember that those courts are headed by judges who were pointed during that time of course mubarak mubarak was a military man and the ruling generals are very much seen as part of his regime since the boric was asked of there have been multiple protests across the country dozens of people have been killed and so what we're witnessing today is disappointment that the revolution did not actually reach the goals it had city itself which was ultimately changing the ruling powers here in egypt the majority of people who are out there in tahrir square are supporters of the muslim brotherhood and their candidate mohamed morsi you need to remember that he won the first round of the presidential vote by several percentage points he has evolved egypt will be turned into a should we are and hated state and this has people concerned in this country those who are not muslim brotherhood supporters they want to keep religion out of

politics they're also worried about them using that personal freedoms and then of course the people who received privileges under the previous regime and i worry that they'll lose those privileges privileges should the muslim brotherhood take up the presidency by comparison you have a fake who is a former air force commander his supporters have been keeping a low profile but they have been holding parallel demonstrations particularly north of cairo the appeal of which a fig is that he promises security and safety but the concern. around which fic is that he represents the old regime and that nothing really will change in tangible terms on the ground you do also have a third possibility that's being put forward today remember we're looking at an announcement that is supposed to come at around three o'clock sunday afternoon either morsi will be elected or should think will be announced all normal people are telling me that the results might be an old election commission might decide that the violations to stream to and now the vote and call for

a new presidential election all of those scenarios hold the threat of violence because protesters on both sides are likely to go to the streets particularly muslim brotherhood supporters if they candidate does not win and indeed if the election results are delayed you're going to see a lot of frustration here in egypt. a car a base journalists and activists to get uber him it says egyptians will continue to strive for freedom and democracy against all odds. with this election and how it was engineered from the first place how it was constructed who was in charge was putting all the woods is basically the supreme council for the horses show in the end that evolution is not over yet i mean no revolution ends in a year and a half and certainly not with skaf in power i believe that that with the next you know coming months there will be a lot of mobilization there's a lot of huge expectation on this coming president whether it would be sheffield or whether it be more c. the have a lot to answer to and with the limiting powers that they have the basically

announcing this decree shows that their job is going to be very very tough yes the one people know won't have the demands met like minimum wage and public health and health care you know one education and we still have a pile of cash lying around people are not going to be happy and that's not what the sector by so many monsters and spent a year and a half of instability for basically people want answered and i'm thin now we have no answers we have only power play cafe spoiling with you know playing with with the muslim brotherhood but the people are the ones who are out of losing because the they all are in india and they need their security they need their bread and they need to live a dignified life well they're on the way in the program the cutting edge of cyber warfare american officials through these on last month's computer virus attack on iran with details in just a few minutes. president is considering whistleblower julian

assange just claim for political asylum has not said when a decision will be made we could expand the husband of the country's embassy in london since tuesday attempting to avoid extradition to sweden there were there sex crimes those ambassador to the u.k. have been recalled to the comical keiter to brief the government. is protected inside the embassy of the british police say the rest to reach. bail conditions once he steps outside the world's most famous whistleblower sought asylum from the ecuadorans because they're sympathetic to his struggles but also wants to avoid ending up in the u.s. if they're going to. be held under house arrest and oppressed by the government in an effort to silence a pro-democracy message to the public but we're not talking about famous political dissident song suchi she's now free and being warmly welcomed by the british government we're talking about the western explain and freedom of speech the

charges of of imported gets julian assange yet he still spent more than five hundred days under house arrest fighting extradition to sweden and possibly the u.s. now he's desperately hoping ecuador in the safe haven see the latest dramatic twist in the case of julian assange is once again called the eyes of the world's media behind the ecuadorian embassy those julian assange takes recchi that away from the hype and his supporters say that this is a dark a tale of a man who has been abandoned by his own country persecuted by the u.s. and failed by the u.k.'s legal system but he's not looking for consular assistance he's looking for political and diplomatic assistance and he's looking for a stroll in government to stand up for the son just fights has been a long one eighteen months of legal wrangling in the resulted in the rejection of his supreme court appeal against extradition to sweden what this was about was one

. extradited to sweden he's in prison in sweden the next thing that happens is the u.s. assuming there's an indictment largest extradition warrant in sweden eventually the u.s. gets his hands on him they stick him in a prison in the united states fears of what might await him across the atlantic may well have prompted his latest i think you'll end up actually through some very serious charge. probably life in prison if not the death penalty and it will be a stacked kangaroo court against those who are sitting with the bradley manning case united states now has kangaroo courts rather than will course these on time founded concerns as a long list of us figures he openly calls not only for songes incarceration even for his death this guy is a traitor treasonous and he has broken every law the united states the guy ought to be and i'm not for the death penalty so i'm not for the death penalty i want to do it illegally shoot the son of a and here's why because of his work with wiki leaks this guy has made some

powerful enemies you know the collateral murder video shows american helicopter gunships shooting reporters the iraq war logs the afghan war diaries all of this cable guy has embarrassed the american british government freedom fighting in the twenty first century is a whole new ball game new rules you play is an unexpected me even first on his legal team this was a complete surprise so we found out about it on twitter and say the man he revolutionized with and three wiki leaks released groundbreaking stories has in another twist become the story himself and there are many now keeping that the next big release will be julian assange himself so if r.t. london. we can exact of this club stokely says that political asylum in ecuador is the best chance for a song to continue his work of making revelations about the u.s. . we're not so worried about him going to sweden actually.

that's just small business we're worried about him getting extradited to the united states and it's being orchestrated by the department of justice and most of the mainstream media doesn't seem to know about it because no one is allowed in and this is being going on simultaneously as bradley manning's trial i would say it's a fifty fifty chance either it does or doesn't i pulling for it sounds like this is a very good option. julian can continue to do the great work he has been doing for journalism ecuador would be a very good choice i think the likelihood of an extradition from ecuador is a lot less than it would be from sweden or the u.k. . foreign minister says that one of its military jets shot down by syrian forces was not spying but it was on

a training flight the incident on friday seriously raise tensions between the two which have since been seeking to diffuse syria maintains the action was defensive and not aggressive. and you warned it would retaliate without specifying how turkish syrian teams are currently trying to find the two missing pilots. these foreign ministry says and tends to be ready instant they tend to be pressing the funny jet had been shot down without warning ron bakir of the. coalition says the she shares that it could stay cafe's in the region. i think what we see is syria a small country a government that has been independent sense independence mean while it sometimes collaborates with the west it has not been considered to be a proxy or a client has been targeted by the western powers and to turkish government which of course is part of nato and by their regional proxies saudi arabia qatar for overthrow and the overthrow is designed not to bring

a more humanitarian or more democratic government to syria but the create a quiet regime in that important strategically important arab country so this incident is heightening the tension but so is every other incident and we could see from the comments of ambassador ford the u.s. ambassador to united states is now encouraging the disaffection and defection from the syrian military part of a strategy to promote civil war in syria that's a crime against turkey as a nato power has been ramping. for the armed insurgency in syria that turkey itself in that turkey syria border has become a transit for the flow of weapons that are coming in from saudi arabia from qatar being paid for really in coordinated with almost great certainty by the by the united states and the nato powers. but on saturday president assad formed a new government bringing in twenty new ministers including two opposition figures the country remains torn to the rest of his own room for national reports to

government forces are being accused of using intimidation to boost their ranks. every evening cause a man has a spends time with his grandchildren but the stories grandpa tells the kids about bad people on fairytales the real one. who is this mohamed were you see he's dead. because he didn't want to bring down president bashar assad. carson is the leader of a five thousand strong tribe his son and youngest granddaughter were shot dead by terrorists after he refused to join the movement against the syrian regime. when our son here they came to me masked men carrying the al-qaeda flag with kalashnikovs and many other weapons they wanted me to demonstrate and bring my tribesmen with me then they came in the night and started shooting in my house is covered in bullet holes from floor to ceiling. later cars and saw them on t.v.

neighboring aleppo change in location every ten days and just like others he says he's already lost a lot but his ready to sacrifice the rest if it helps turn this dark page in this country's history while the west continues to pile more pressure on the syrian regime in the hope of the posen president assad it's remains unclear what kind of people would take his place with open support for the syrian rebels and a rise in the use of terror tactics the question many are asking is that what kind of direction would these force take the country. or if national our team from syria. and moscow and washington a seem to come close in their positions on syria this week and the g twenty summit in mexico both sides pointed out syrians it should choose their own next government and a statement by president putin and obama on tuesday it was their first face to face

meeting since the russian leader attend the kremlin in may their talks however exposed more rough it is the result of this is the u.s. and russia still deficient feel washington's plans for missile defense shield in europe are scalars once again reiterate its call for shared control of the system as a solution to the impasse based on cooperation but a former member of the reagan administration paul craig roberts believes the bomber doesn't have as much room to maneuver on the issue as he might like. i'm convinced that. does not war conflicts with washington he wants to resolve the issue of the missile bases that are surrounding russia he doesn't want conflict and obama. he doesn't want any conflict either but he is just one member government that more wants regime change and syria and obama is not exactly in

celebrate. everybody says oh yes all the situation and then five minutes later it was like oh are back in the doldrums and we're going to just hide this show you. call for the next couple of it it's all right no experience and you know that on thursday friday and everything i started thinking well you know that didn't solve anything and we're still in the same hole that we in for because they're trying to do two things simultaneously on the one hand bro and on the other hand back on their. civil list and on their government in order to comply with the call for austerity measures now you can't do it you can't do the same thing you can do lots of things it's impossible it's either one of them i mean if you squeeze the people at the few people are going to scream and when the screen governments fall and that's what we're going to be seen in the near term future if this government proceeds ease austerity measures which have been ineffective over the last two years and so there's no reason to think that they're going to be effective over the next six months while we've got the world covered for you at r.t.

interests what is going to chicken has the latest. that american officials may sound defensive when they talk about cyber attacks as being a major threat to the country's security a weapon of mass disruption you could have a cyber attack that would be as consequential in terms of the economy maybe even in terms of overall us ryan fashions we typically associate with more for the next pearl harbor that we confront could very well be a cyber attack that cripples our our power system certainly our grid acts of terror could come not only from a few extremists and suicide vests but from a few keystrokes on the computer but it turns out the u.s. government itself carries out cyber attacks against other nations the washington post cites officials speaking on condition of anonymity who say entrap aeration full cyber sabotage against iran the u.s. and israel developed the flame virus flame is the most complex computer spying program ever discovered it has the capacity to steal or outer elec twenty documents

by now nobody doubts the program was development by a government entity that something like this appears to be what they would call state sponsored it sounds like the n.s.a. it is a means by me that now security agency has and does this kind of thing we know they've done this kind of things you're getting intelligence without having to put someone actually there it's cyber espionage while the flame war was collecting intelligence the stuxnet virus borrowed into iran's nuclear program and created havoc in its uranium enrichment centrifuges the obama administration did not deny the leaks in the new york times that it had teamed up with israel to create stuxnet some fear that the move almost invites retaliation where you attack for instance iraq's nuclear program you provide the iranians with your weapon your worm which they can that really reverse engineer take apart figure out how it works turn it

around send your way a leading man. so basic you're ready for which i covered the flame virus as part of its code is nearly identical to the code finding stuxnet and suggested that the viruses were developed by two teams working in collaboration leaks in the press support that assessment one official also on condition of anonymity said is just the beginning and the u.s. is preparing the battlefield for another type of coverage action we're setting precedent for other nations and that's where the real problem lies because we've been criticizing china for allegedly attacking united states companies and u.s. governments while the same time engaging in this in the same conduct with other countries feel bomb administration has openly confirmed hacking websites but only if alleged al qaeda sympathizers in yemen the u.s. secretary of state described this cyber aspart as part of a larger attack on terrorism but many fear the u.s. cyber efforts go well beyond that. as u.s. defense authorities go offensive in cyber warfare the pentagon's cyber command has

fast tracked the development of weapons the administration just announced a one hundred ten million dollars program to solicit proposals from universities and videogame manufacturers to so much hype about cyber war is that some people that seem to be in the authority about war start talking about technology as if they understand that they're always talking about war because that's their business and so they're trying to rope technology into that and so when we have no control of our technology we have these people that wish to use it for for their ends for war specifically that's a recipe for some pretty scary stuff cyber space as a whole is now seen by the u.s. military as the basque area of opportunity you can really tell the government don't do to others what you don't want them to tell you but in light of the recent revelations about he was being engaged in a fiber pact one might ask what the message that the center of all what the government vehemently dems cyberattacks back heard them all but it fell
