but there's this record cleaned from tar months ago but as you can hear not far from here questions still continue shelling and shooting in the syrian city of palms as the death toll continues to rise party brings an exclusive report from the heart of the uprising. meanwhile wiki leaks promised to shed new light on the syrian conflict as the group begins to release millions of emails claiming the material is damning not only for damascus but also the west's. and washington plans to invest millions to upgrade the notorious kuantan m obeys a move suggesting the shutdown of the detention facility once promised by iraq obama is still a far cry. from

zero and welcome to our tea with me karen ten o'clock here in moscow well shelling does continue in the syrian city of homes as a u.n. monitors admits the violence in the country has reached unprecedented levels more than one hundred people have been killed in the last three days our correspondent for national heard heavy artillery herself as she toured the war torn neighborhoods of homes. in these parts of hundreds to maybe back on the syrian army control but there to trolls never stop soldiers are searching house to house they're looking for terrorists or snipers but that's not what they usually find. some people in their homes became their graves too and this room look human bones but at least one person. who seems to have been burnt to death.

in the next house we find three more charts. activists claim up to eight hundred thousand people have been killed since the uprising began sixteen months ago the un is to me it's around ten thousand we have no way of telling if these remains or others like them were even counted at. baba amr used to be home to one hundred thousand people now we're driving through area people have left military almost the only human beings left in this area this is he can see behind me this is a cemetery almost untouched actually while the rest of the city looks completely like the cemetery buildings schools mosques all in ruins and no sign of life while many signs of this is one of the tallest buildings in the area and we can see from this balcony two completely different pictures two completely different realities

look there beautiful pictures peaceful city while over there well we can see war homes the opposition hotbed has always been at the heart of the uprising against president assad was a weirdo bomb that if you could have been the epicenter of the questions between the rebels and the army since it's been shelled heavily now so you can see it's quiet here but just steps away just meters away another. sometime here and this is where the things are happening right now extending behind these rays strange rice quite safe but from time to time missiles reach this area too this is why would a hurry up. but with brian other homes the district is because he also most completely destroyed everything shops buildings schools even mosques we were told that this district was cleaned from turkey months ago but as you can hear not far from here questions still continue so we were actually told not to go any further i

would simply dangerous. soldiers come to our location they tell us the rebels woke up so we leave. just a fifteen minute drive takes us to yet another image of homs the people here aren't taking their bags at least the raw people here see the. very good and it's very serious that if we leave you come here and. talking to this man at a coffee on the street full of people it's easy to forget the truck tonight just a few blocks away. r.t. homs syria. meanwhile iraq's foreign minister has confirmed al qaeda militants are flowing into syria to stage terrorist attacks earlier this year and al qaeda leader called on muslims to support the syrian rebels political commentator and historian gerald horne says western powers are playing with fire when supporting the

opposition. but he had read the foreign minister should not come as a surprise to anybody saying attention even we can hate the british foreign secretary announced a few weeks ago that i was involved in syria we all know that during the 1980's when one state was involved in trying to disrupt afghanistan that they wanted states collaborated with al qaeda and bin laden himself this route that's called the free syrian army is not going to be able to dislodge one of the most powerful militaries in the region the turkish claims that interfere in syrian airspace just a few days ago came to realize that the silk syrian military has nothing to claim with so i think that diplomacy is the only way out let us hope that the north atlantic powers that we learned from the libyan experience we know that they drop tons of weapons in libya in order to dislodge the regime of mr gadhafi under the

guise of humanitarian intervention. wiki leaks says promising to present a different take on the ongoing syrian conflict they were supplying group has started publishing the so-called syrian files millions have emails that it warrants will expose the west's hypocrisy in dealing with damascus our correspondent sara furthest following the developments from london. this is the biggest release since we had cable gate which gave us the u.s. diplomatic cables and a really unique insight into the workings of the u.s. government now the syria files is even bigger than that it's supposed to be eight times bigger than the u.s. diplomatic table late in terms of documents and a hundred times bigger in terms of data now in the same way that we saw the u.s. diplomatic cables released a similar things going to be happening with the syria files wiki leaks have partnered up with different media organizations around the world and they go through the day to release this in small stages now so far from what's been

released already we've had a very interesting insight into the workings because these are the e-mails that were being exchanged between senior political figures in syria ministry figures corporations around the world the first e-mails that were released we can show you the tally in company had been providing communications equipment to the syrian police and the syrian army now they that contract was signed back in two thousand and eight when relations with the syrian regime were much stronger with the west it shows that the technical assistance with being provided as late as february of this year you know clearly that company more than happy to continue providing that assistance even as the violence he claimed a huge number of lives in the country and so you know i think probably there's going to be a lot of very nervous companies around the world is going to be a lot of nervous members of the syrian government certainly as we once again has

this major coup in providing us with a very unique glimpse of what is going on now what about julian assange we know he's been holed up in the door an embassy awaiting his silent but answer has i haven't heard any comments from the chief whistleblower. he has he did he release the comment three one of his spokesmen sarah harrison he's played an increasingly main role with the wiki leaks team and said on his behalf that these files waiting to do this not to embarrass the one side or another it was aimed to give us really an understanding of what was going on and he said that it was only through understanding the culture that we'd be able to find some sort of resolution poignant words from the man himself who is of course at the moment i think is a very facile in the ecuadorian embassy here in london still as he seeks the battle against that extradition to sweden and again indeed the thoughts of the u.s.

if he were to be sent to sweden the fact that the syrian files are making headlines despite all the criticism julian assange and wiki leaks have faced prove the group significance says just one erratic national security and human rights director at the government accountability project if these leaks were meaningless fluff or not in the public interest in knowing cared no one would report on them and they would see julian songes or crackpot and no one would be any attention to it the fact that they're being reported on inherently shows their worth despite the fact that credit card companies have choked off financial support to wiki leaks and that he is holed up in the embassy this organization is continuing to function which is a testament to the by ability. as an organization especially at this time and i find all of this to be very interesting because it shows number one weekly leaks is

alive and well despite the best efforts of so many countries to shut it down and number two that as much as a means stream media wants to distance itself from wiki leaks the syria files are the front page of every major newspaper in the world right now. don't forget the wiki leaks at it or join us has been hosting his very own interview program right here on our t.v. all eleven additions of which are always available at a song on r.t.e. dot com. there hasn't been anything good on t.v. . it is to get the maximum political impact. before the source material is what helps keep journalism on the we.

we want to present. something real. sure is that so much of an. hour or minute mark when the arab spring plainly coming to sit down as the protest movement grows the regime of al bashir appears to have limited options which it can chew.

twelve minutes past the hour here with the pentagon will reportedly pour a major some into a new infrastructure for its military base at guantanamo bay the u.s. government repeatedly pledged to put an end to the controversial detention facility that's based at the site and used to hold terrorist suspects are going to has more

. forty million dollars will be spent to lay out this underwater fiber optic cable from south florida to cuba where the guantanamo bay prison camp is located the base commander said it only makes sense if we're going to be here for any period of time and infrastructure projects like that may well suggest that the u.s. military is preparing for detentions and other operations at the guantanamo base for the long term when president obama was first running for office he pledged to shut down guantanamo in very strong terms in two thousand and nine he even signed an executive order to close it but not only did not shut it down but the u.s. is obviously renovating guantanamo in this case by improving communications and the argument is you don't make such an investment to pick up and leave guantanamo has made a black hole in america's human rights record indefinite detention torture around eight hundred people went through the camp within the last decade of america's war on terror the majority of them had nothing to do with nine eleven that's according

to a former chief prosecutor guantanamo now the prison houses one hundred sixty nine detainees the government says eighty nine aren't those threats but president obama and congress have blocked their release as for the rest some of them have a shot at a military hearing but forty six don't have that chance because the government says they can't be tried for one reason or another the u.s. supreme court keeps refusing to take up one tunnel detainee's petitions what has been striking to me was that the u.s. prides itself on the rule of law and human rights but at the same time has denied you legal process to these detainees practice and not just the one possible but in secret prisons around the world human rights organizations that we should report on all kinds of violations but to the u.s. it's been like water off a duck's back. yes lawyer an attorney eric run tall vall has represented some of the detainees at guantanamo believes the american leadership is totally failing to practice what it preaches it's you're saying one thing and doing the complete

opposite on one hand you know we're closing the base but on the other hand we're crafting water the state of the art you know penal institutions in the united states there's a big disconnect between the justice department between homeland security between the president and states and our foreign policy and i think we need to evaluate you know why we're spending millions upon millions of dollars on something that should not even be there in the first place and next hour we speak with british lawyer and university professor philip sands who says legal advisers practically gave the leadership unlimited power to do anything they wanted. but number of the lawyers involved very senior love had no real background in the subject of international law the protection of the right individual and were very ideological in their approach basically they saw their function as a lawyer not as b. to give independent legal advice but to give the president the tools to do what he

want to do that's not the function of a lawyer in any society in any democratic society. greece is firas up the british prime minister over his remarks the u.k. could restrict the greeks from entering the country the move could also prevent other eurozone citizens coming to britain to escape recession at home greek and p. ever believes david cameron striking a populous no just to try to keep a hold of his party. cameron's losing his party it seems that the democratic party is getting really better so maybe it's like a populism or trying to say something i've used this kind of statements think crees his popularity are less likely to leave the country so nothing like that to be a problem and greeks never county they move to they would grant immigrants went to fairly or anywhere else they just created jobs and work really hard their way there

so they wouldn't create a problem even if that would be the case it's against all the roots of the european union saying something like that while we're trying to get us out of this crisis i don't think it's good it was just pointless for me. and if you're headed on line here are some other stories worth checking out on our web site r t v dot com. power plant disaster may have been triggered by a tsunami but japan says it was human error that led to the disaster unfolding also . we've got the footage of a massive fire that engulfed a military academy in the russian capital you can find all the photos and videos of the blaze online. technology innovation all the developments around russia we've got the future

partner were selling homemade bread on a bicycle and now with two popular cafes in rio thirty six employees these two former school teachers but old are we to success to be boring about teaching. and then we try to do something else towards making this a french. bread for me it's very difficult. stories like this are becoming common in brazil especially in rio in san paulo in the last decade small private businesses have mushroomed all around since two thousand and three brazil's middle class grew by over thirty five million people starting from the also earn over eleven hundred u.s. dollars per month in rio the poor districts or favelas are now called communities since every year more of their residents become middle class people are earning borrowing and are definitely spending more cash things are certainly on the up but
