we cue weeks strikes again this time by starting to publish over two million e-mails from syrian politicians government departments and companies dating back years. meanwhile as violence in syria continues to escalate dozens more are killed across the country look at why people far from the from line are now struggling to survive. but it's greece slams the british prime minister for threats suggesting he could block greek immigrants and other eurozone citizens from entering the u.k. . the jefferson should be looking through its own banking scandal before judgment on all the move for me in london in just a moment. it's

five pm in moscow this is ours you coming to you live and here is our top story and weiqi leaks is publishing close to two and a half million e-mails from syrian government officials from as far back as two thousand and six the leak is almost a hundred times bigger than the release of american diplomatic cables which rocked the u.s. military and leadership and made reeky leaks founder julian assange an enemy of the state so our furthest following developments. there's going to be some very anxious people in the syrian government right now more than two million emails are in wiki leaks possession and they're going to be released in chunks over the coming weeks now the message from julian a song was this isn't about criticizing one group or another wiki leaks saying that this isn't only embarrassing for the syrian government but also for the west western companies how they say one thing and do another but yet the message from

julian assange really was that this isn't about criticizing one particular clique it's about looking now and a workings about what's going on behind the scenes in this conflict and it's only by understanding this that he says that we can hope to resolve the conflict so that was a sort of message there from the wiki leaks founder of course this is the latest that we've had as he's fighting against the extradition to sweden we're joined now by. the founder of the front line curve and also you actually had julian assange staying in your home state thank you very much for joining us i want to bit about the media's role in this story because obviously you've seen a lot of criticism and backlash against julian assad and yet the same people and the same media that were criticizing him and now going to be covering the story for the next couple of weeks is going to be the headline news i think julian has somehow treading on a territory a journalist six. and journalism is resentful of that to an extent that's partly

what's happening in my view and so you see these comments against these people feel that they have the right to patrol the information and they actually do very little to promote journalism's ethics outside the profession so there's a sort of professional competition going on and i think that it's it's rather unfortunate i think history will be very critical of this because ultimately journalism fails in its task is not just to protect itself you can i you know i don't look at julian assange as a bomb villain. catch robin hood and the press if they want to be balance need to be doing both of these but too often and there's only a token disbursement to fairness and balance and frankly it takes no courage to reinforce public sentiment against a man julian assange to running. what he believes to be his life thank you very much for that certainly it is another big skeet for wiki leaks and i think it

really puts the focus back on why this fight why julian assange just fight and why the fight for wiki leaks indeed is so important we've spoken a lot of times to kristen have he's described now as a second public face and i think really the emphasis is always been on the fact that you know wiki leaks does operate without julian assange and it's not just about these big stories and the big stories surrounding the man himself but you know the most important thing is the information that wiki leaks provides and we see once again with the syria files that just bought an important service that provides. well iraq's foreign minister is blaming al qaeda members for orchestrating the uprising against syria's president in a news briefing he said militants from the terror network were flowing into syria violence inside the country has worsened with over one hundred people killed across syria in the last three days reports say findings intensifying in homes where troops are clashing with rebels for the citizens caught in the middle into delhi

battle to survivors are. reports. the conflict in syria that is now being called a civil war there was more bloodshed and killing in syria today the newest massacre in syria while bullets and body bags may lead news headlines on syria but death is not the only toll of this war warden or citizens who haven't picked sides in this conflict now living daily fear for their lives and now they're also paying dearly with their livelihoods prices for food everything are very highly under growing crisis. now serious currency has lost more than half of its value since the fighting began it used to cost about forty seven syrian pounds to buy one u.s. dollar before the war one hundred pounds for a dollar one year later this inflation unfortunately is only set to get worse with the government now printing more cash just to stay afloat now was once a pillar of syria's economy but an embargo has cut revenues for the government by

nearly one third now those sanctions may have been aimed at the government of course it is ordinary syrians who are now paying at the pump four thousand that's about sixty dollars used to be a neutral month but now you need twice as much as i'm going to find i spend hours waiting for and it's not just fuel for cars that's difficult to come by a single tank of cooking gas can now eat up about half of the average syrians monthly paycheck i mean that's huge and with shortages spreading across the country even those supplies are guaranteed. a few weeks and for a week. we want to lose we want to eat but we have no. this is how we have to live there's no other choice now according to the united nations more than one point four million syrians are already at risk for hunger and those who still have access to food are finding that prices are soaring out of their reach now let me show you what i mean when it comes to the average syrian

a carton of eggs used to cost about one hundred and ten syrian pounds before. for the war after the uprising that amount of money is enough for just two eggs now take sugar for example the price of a bath like this has tripled in cost the amount of money one used to spend on it will now buy about this amount and even staple food like rice i mean this is a really common food in syria probably enough to feed a small family for about a week like this has doubled in cost now when it comes to the arab spring the cost of food and fuel has played a critical role as prices rose so did anger in arab nations the same holds true in syria were simply surviving and making ends meet as now a daily battle in the end the price of bread may prove to be a bigger obstacle to peace than a loaded gun for r t i'm lucy catherine of in moscow. russians refuting claims that syria's president might be seeking asylum in the country foreign minister sergei lavrov denied allegations at a news conference with his german counterpart archies. is across what has been set

. will you take out will you give political asylum to all the syrian president apparently that was the question asked by the german leaders when russia's that wasn't present was in berlin but the visit about a month ago russia's a russian a russian delegation thought it was a joke so they said yes but only if you're willing to do the same fast forward about four weeks later and the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov had to refute that statement or those jokes continuously for the past several weeks apparently not everybody in the delegation in the german delegation thought it was a joke and the rumors have been spreading like wildfire throughout the european media sphere again to russia's stance and by its point they saying that they're not holding the door open for the syrian president and the only way the only real way of just put a stop to the syrian conflict is a for the syrians themselves to sit down to table for dialogue no matter how look

at it other options or rumors that may appear to be. better to use they're going to go to school reporting live from moscow. and other news greece is furious at the british prime minister over his remarks at the u.k. could restrict greeks from entering the country the move could also prevent other eurozone citizens coming to britain to escape recession at home because he says london should be focusing on its own financial troubles as laura smith explains. there's been speculation about massive waves of immigration from not just greece but from other economies that are struggling at the moment david cameron in response to that said that britain could potentially close its doors to immigration from these struggling eurozone countries including greece he was under pressure really to say there was a lot of speculation about these kind of migrant issues and he said if the borders came under unusual stress then the legal position was that britain could take

action and close down those borders greece has responded quite vehemently it was the it was the pasok party one of the parties in the leading coalition at the moment that said that david cameron should look to his own house he should keep his own house in order before commenting on these euro zone issues the the greeks are referring there to this scandal that's recently broken about barclays bank rigging these interbank lending rates making them seem much more favorable than they were the greeks say that he shouldn't rattle the markets in the euro zone with talk of restricting immigration he should in fact look to barclays and the banking sector here in this country and get that in order for before he does the greeks of course are already feeling humiliated by the fact that they have to rely on the european bailouts to keep their economy afloat and so of course they reacted very strongly to any comment like that david cameron has to be very careful here because the u.k.

is not part of the euro zone so any comment he makes of this nature looks like somebody who's just on the outside looking in greece have said that he's talking about policing measures that violates all the principles in the freedoms in the rules essentially of the e.u. and also that comments like this damage the trust is really essential for keeping the euro zone together under these circumstances lawyer george could says david cameron's ideas both offensive and illegal. everybody be insulted because. the police. statement because the prime minister knows that it is closer to the european know what he has said yes remove those people is one of the fundamental truth is a little beyond you it is not the case in the us in the states to grow keep it your movement of seeds and other european states who refuse to carry this is the needle of the future of europe but the same time we are feeling about the sentiment of

national human nature exactly because we are going to march next it seems or second or that this is one of the fundamentals are going to be if we do not cut the movement of people this is of course going to go to the european union is the time when its legality is more than ever needed i think that we're going to see a divide between the european roots insult but this is the future you see. well more travel trouble of a little later this hour on r.t. when we try to check in on israel anything to declare that country's airport security is now firing through the personal e-mails of those wanting to visit the holy land that's coming up here on r.t. . to keep.

to. make your statement. for the world. michael steele. here with r t live from moscow well it was an independence day with a difference in philadelphia as members of the occupy movement from across the u.s.

gathered for a key demo at least two people were arrested following the rally which had a heavy police presence are you going to if you can it was at the protest against corporate greed inequality and debt. the occupy movement together here in philadelphia on the fourth of july was certainly a symbolic move the area is widely known as the cradle of liberty where the necklace of independence was first read aloud at the u.s. constitution was adopted so far u.s. authorities have a big take occupiers from all of their camping locations all across the country and those were largely very peaceful protests more than seven thousand people have been arrested since the beginning of the movement last fall many of those demonstrators were charged and still face trial one of them malcolm harris who was arrested in new york the judge demanded twitter to hand over his wits and user information on the fires to get us

a message whatever you say may well be used against you it may be a scary tactics too many now might be aware of speaking their mind freely online and there's many goals and demands of the occupy movement and in covering it's clear that what they want is a society that is economically just and where there's a quality where people under the law are held to the same standards that banks would not get away with debt and get bailed out and people would be told that they have to pay debt they would not get bailed out economic injustice the cozy relationship between big businesses and the government those are some of the things that they're focusing on one thing is clear that is too many people in the u.s. are unhappy with business as usual washington but most of them don't take to the streets there in silent protest they support neither of the candidates and say they feel money has more power in washington than their voices i'm going to shut down in philadelphia. a look now at some other stories making headlines across the globe

to bounce really its final report into the fukushima nuclear plant tragedy calling it profoundly manmade disaster it highlights serious deficiencies by both the government and the company in charge of the facility top co the operator says there was nothing it could have done to counter the earthquake or tsunami which led to meltdowns and radiation leaks in march two thousand and eleven. airport security can be a little overzealous at times but in israel it's taking off to a whole new level beyond the scanners pop downs and bag searches guards even asked to inspect passengers personal e-mails for any traces of pro palestinian activism as polls they are now reports even a tourist family tree can get them turfed out. they come in their millions to touch the hoody now and many of the frustrated seeing little more than the airport instead of touching the holy land they are brushed by a port security and sent home with them goes

a large slice of the country's tourism sandra tamale from illinois in the united states was one of the disappointed i headed my passport over and the young woman looked at me and what is your father's name what is your grandfather's name and when i told her she asked have a space and a waiting room sandra tomar we kept that seat warm for eight hours in that time she was interrogated seven times and then the question became focused on my e-mail and what i thought of you and your mail account and when i refused to block my g. mail account that's. the hiding something. i was asked very plainly are you a terrorist and i didn't know whether it's serious. israeli airport security was as serious as it could be they didn't believe her story of coming to visit family and taking part in an interfaith conference they also knew she'd been involved in campaigns calling for boycotts and disinvestment from israel. a day later she was

on a plane back to the united states. sandra's experience is not unique there are many more who have suffered in the same way it appears this experience could be merely the tip of the iceberg this is way beyond anything it's like asking you to go back home and open your safe. see what's there they can find your contact list they can find of where are where are your plans where are you heading to everything but the think is that if you're a terrorist and if you're smart you wipe your laptop before you cross and you have a dummy account so that no one will ever access your mail but saying let's focus on the beauty of it all but also remember aware of the problem two operators are telling potential tourists what to say. we encourage all of our groups to sure.

also to show. we were to the west bank but deleting facebook profiles from setting up fake email addresses doesn't touch on legal questions there certainly is no basis in law whatsoever for them to be asking people for their passwords and usernames and entering their g. mail accounts i find it incredibly difficult to believe that they had obtained a warrant for any of these searches. and so i think it would be very difficult to find a basis in israeli law for this kind of search israel strictness follows a series of run ins with international activists in recent years hundreds of propellants t.v. and demonstrators were stopped from flying into the country recently as israel tightens its grip on who can and cannot step foot in the holy land policy r.t. tel aviv. there israel's security forces hit by human rights abuse scandal we report online for you israeli soldiers are part pushing

a psychological boost to for anything but the markets of pretty well priced in a twenty five basis point rate cut now. i would have thought they should have already last month and then forgot with another cut this month and now a quick look at how the equity markets are trading this hour first to europe and dizzy can see the footsie is managing to stay in the black although it has narrowed its gains over the past hour in the dax has slipped into red wall street futures are pointing to a higher opening. in new york in a few hours and actually a couple of hours i should say and the european currency is actually shedding value against the dollar here you're seeing the latest figures the russian ruble is losing value to the dollar and gaining to the euro and stay with the euro zone a criminal investigation has been opened into a field of spanish lender bunk kiya and its chairman rodrigo roth two who
