lol. the u.n. convoy comes under fire in what appears to be a rebel held area in syria while washington considers injecting pots of money into the opposition. fresh reports say millions of dollars aimed at training locals to maintain security in iraq i'm restoring infrastructure in afghanistan are going to waste as critics attack plans to send us police across unstable regions of the world. and fears of a far right rise in europe's economic gloom as an unemployed that turned to neo nazi ism and violence against migrant workers and what were once called havens have more die culturalism.

flowing welcome to our team this tuesday with me karen terrazas. well a u.n. observer mission convoy in syria has come under attack by tanks according to the world body's chief ban ki-moon incident apparently happened in an opposition held area outside of the flashpoint city of holmes meanwhile a u.s. state department spokesperson said washington is planning to increase aid on top of the fifteen million dollars package already allocated for the opposition. forces have also called on their foreign supporters to supply them with sophisticated weapons to use against government tanks and aircraft that's amid continuing clashes in the country's northern city of aleppo where both the army and rebel forces claim progress the focus of the battles have shifted to the syrian commercial hub after regime troops flushed out rebels from damascus for

a week ago parties oksana boyko now reports the does is slowly settling in the capital. it doesn't take much to set syrians off these days on ash and on a very tight budget residents of damascus are now trying to reclaim the basics they used to take for granted. the rising may have started with political protests but now they're starting to morph into riots economically life is getting harder for ordinary syrians but the rebels targeting supply trucks the price of a gallon of gas has risen four fold in the last few months so when a pro-government and your attempting to distribute fuel at prewar prices it found itself overwhelmed by the demand because of all of these. special circumstances that happened lately people maybe get more nervous of course people had similar difficulties to get their supplies no no no it's everything is getting

better life is slowly returning to the capital as are the thousands of people who fled the turmoil there in the past weeks but what they find in the neighborhoods is unlikely to instill much confidence in either of the warring parties the damage inflicted by the clashes to the syrian infrastructure is already asked to made it at the lab billion dollars and still counting that's almost seventy percent of the country's annual budget you can argue about who is to blame for all this destruction but it's certainly a very high price to pay for any sort of struggle but it is for democracy for stability and no matter who emerges the winner syrians have already lost the government has promised to help the rebuilding of the scale of destruction and the already flagging economy that's the question of just how fast and how efficient that's reckoned struction will be meanwhile some are already starting to lose

patience mohamad a flower trader has returned home to find all three of his cars burned out used to calm himself among supporters of the govern. but now his loyalties are uncertain but there is really i don't support the opposition i want to live here look my father and grandfather but if the government can provide us with peace and security you don't have to move to another country or the government needs to go you know he's not somebody who would trade he's implements for a rifle but in his neighborhood youngsters are already being radicalized this police car was set on fire by the rebels the charred remains of an officer still inside only says all government sympathizers deserve such a death star wars for a fifteen year old who hasn't finished high school and why although he wants us to finish bashar ourselves enough of him in addition to political differences the conflict in syria is also generational the young want to hide while the old struggle to find cover and their only good was to drag syria into chaos everything

was fine but now it's only getting worse. the army and the rebels claim they're fighting for a better life but the majority of civilians trapped in between each other at the thought of how much worse it's going to get before it gets any better it's on the boy who are reporting from damascus and syria russia's foreign ministry has accused some media outlets of helping the syrian rebels to achieve their goals political analyst dr ostroff by yumi says it's a well planned manipulation tactic. it's part of the psychological warfare that the newspapers in washington and new york times washington post is filled with reports and comments urging the rebels. to be ready to govern and the warden. for example to use chemical. war. facility is. to respect the minorities

as if by shuttle as it is going to model but frankly i have some newspapers which dates as back as june two thousand and eleven which predicted the imminence of our bashar to fall. vs our part of the psychological warfare. foreign intervention is something moscow is trying to prevent when it comes to the situation in syria r.t. caught up with russia's human rights envoy constantine al gore who says a healthy political process is possible only when changes come from within here's a preview of what's to come next hour. it is definitely different when. certain transformations certain political changes being pushed from the. then it's a different picture and. we keep reiterating

it's not only russians view that you cannot bring about democracy from the old say democracy used to become the result. of certain internal processes. u.s. defense secretary leon panetta is already making plans for when syria's president assad is alstad from power he says it's crucial for stability after regime change to keep the country's military intact and not repeat the mistakes america made after invading iraq there in the army was disbanded by the u.s. led forces setting loose tens of thousands of militants and now a fresh report says that over two hundred million dollars. to train iraqi police have gone to waste the u.s. is preparing to send hundreds of its own police across the world to help locals

handle security trying glazer from antiwar dot com believes the plan is more about control and enrichment plant regional stability fund all these is being wasted on a population that doesn't want to intervening but it's also going to what has happened already is that we've propped up this security apparatus in iraq which is has no respect for human rights at all the obama administration had been pressing the maliki government to try and maintain some contingency force there that could have been anywhere from ten thousand to thirty thousand and when the iraqis said no . washington wasn't happy about it they're going to try and keep it as big as possible and as simple when she was possible because otherwise iraq gets outside of our sphere of influence and that is the last thing that washington wants we spend currently. about as much as the rest of the world combined on our military six times more than china the next so so much of what we do is

wasteful but it puts money in the pockets of really rich military industrial complex. organizations and corporations. afghanistan is another drain for american taxpayers' money their infrastructure restoration is falling far behind schedule and costing much more than originally estimated massa dissertations from the local security forces of the us is trying to train are hurting efforts to maintain stability analysts jason ditz attributes this to corrupt authorities and poorly planned spending. in afghanistan we've got the same problems we have and iraq but we also have the problems of government corruption being much worse throwing money at it with very little idea where it's going to go or if those programs are going to be successful is is just a recipe for that money being stolen or wasted or just disappearing

a lot of these programs that just sort of get added ad hoc to say the occupation in iraq or the occupation in afghanistan the administration will come up with something that they think is the reason why the war is going so well and they'll throw some money at that and very rarely do they ever consider it if that program is even needed or wanted so hundreds of millions of dollars go wasted. playing war stories still ahead for you this hour including investigating a horrific discovery. we delved deeper into the mystery of hundreds of fetuses recently found in barrels in the russian woods and i ask if they're linked to illegal human experiments backdoor abortions or just normal research. find a ninth day in a row a protest in california with demands for an investigation into police after a spate of shootings by officers and which two people died.

if they shoot something inappropriate for the public they can easily be joined by a. guest he's a warning ok. i wish he would have never happened but it has happened. in a war a t.v. camera becomes an unnecessary witness their own safety all foreign nationals including journalists and inspectors should leave room. and it's clear what happens with such witnesses i got aboard my flight ok that one right there ready to take. away. your very serious shooting on our. four.

would be soon which brightened if you knew about sun from finest impressions. his friend starts on t. dot com. which.

thanks for being with r.t.f. thirty minutes past the hour as europe's economic downturn deepens and spreads so to do fears of full scale social unrest fueled by far right ideas already in some countries business people who've moved from abroad have suffered violence from angry jobless who blame migrants for their problems parties peter all of our reports from germany. this sleepy town in saxony seems idyllic however even here right wing extremists have made life hell for people who came to this country to set up businesses mohammed came to this town in the east of germany from pakistan to put a pizzeria peak in those sort of abuse and attacks the hands of local view on him about police over every time we call the police the police came every time

we called them but until now they haven't found anyone they threaten to kill us and now we have a real fear that we cannot continue like this anymore. the pizzeria is now closed after the last attack in early may mohammed explained to me how a group aged between eighteen and twenty five gathered outside the shop near closing time they broke windows and taunted the terrified staff telling them to go home a small explosive device was detonated which fortunately didn't cause any injuries but means the pizzeria is having to undergo an expensive refit. right wing violence on the streets of germany the country saw a rise in extremist violence after reunification in one thousand eight hundred nine followed by an economic slump in the east which caused people to look to the far right and the fascist campaign as a warning that jus to europe's current financial predicament we could see

a similar rise again our d. is a problem i think today we have facing developments in the i would part of the germany a lot of jobs leads to helplessness and despair which are the main ingredients the trend is young handsome flour right ideology that there is a belief among activists that the issue of right wing extremism is being ignored by large numbers of the german people. education is only part of this problem of the need citing as a how to pay more attention to it that there needs to be more options for cultural integration especially for young people. germany's far right national democratic party or n p d that faced calls for them to be banned from politics the n.p.t. say that they are vehemently opposed to any organization carrying out violent attacks and are working with young people to try and educate them on the don't loiter our message to young people who come to our seminars is that it's not the kabab center who is your enemy but rather the politicians who are at the wheel of

the country however those words won't reopen mohammed's pizzeria his isn't the only business in this town to face this type of attack but. i came here seven years ago from vietnam and i've been targeted twice used throwing rocks through my window years. as even germany's robust economy starts to really feel the pinch of the eurozone crisis there are concerns that we could see a further guides in social problems in the countries areas. peter all over r.t. jenny. over in the united states it seems more people are losing their homes struggling in a difficult economy coming up this hour max kaiser looks at the country's mortgage crisis and wall street's role in it. so after seizing the mortgage condemning it and seizing it the city then they claim will pay a fair market value to the owner of the mortgage which in the most cases is the

securitization trust which were already these are all filled with fraud already so they're going to seize these. trusts as the suv passed the cherokee as do you these tribes are still waiting for the land that the us government promised one hundred fifty years ago we're going to do we'll go gold they probably give it to him now it's completely destroyed you know they're not going to make good on the stuff they're just getting the last bit of possibly can of the pockets out of the couches the city both in the course of these people's houses you've got long as you know the vacuum cleaner trying to suck out that last nickel i don't have to go. back human fetuses discover it and barrels and a russian forest last week were dumped there by a state institution according to police a leading a criminal investigation into the scandal and ploys of the urals state medical

academy say such disposal is regular with a truckload of bio material thrown away in the woods in may are to sean thomas has been following the shocking discovery explains. police have tracked down the car that they say was responsible for dumping these fetuses in the woods a fetus is supposed to be incinerated because they are classified as class b. bio medical waste as all human tissue is and as such they should be incinerated but in this case because they were wet and soaked in from outside the company decided well it would just be too difficult in this case and so they decided to dump it in the woods these fetuses were all between twenty two and twenty six weeks which is a late term fetus and in russia it's illegal to have an abortion past this stage only in the case of a medical emergency so it doesn't answer the question as why all of these fetuses two hundred forty eight of them were passed this point early on in the investigation they were saying this could have been used for legal research or

possibly for rejuvenation type experiments illegal stem cell research as well and then we even heard the possibility of illegal human cloning experiments that had gone bad which is why they were dumped in the forest so that there was no trace of where they came from also again still the possibility of an illegal abortion operation has happening in the area and trying to cover that up as well so still some more investigation needs to happen but we can put some of those more theories to rest at this time. you can follow the developments in this dramatic story on our website where we have even more lined up for you a joke for people with a good sense of humor while that's how the female punk band accused of say tannic dances after a strong performance in moscow's top orthodox church describe their action to a trial court in the city but not everyone agrees bring more on the pussy riot case online. plus a work literally of this political proportions find out how

civil servants to foot the country's corner in the trade body is still explains. russia's journey towards accession to the world trade organization has been a long and arduous to say the least eighteen years in the making that also means years to prepare for when the time finally comes but now that it had almost gotten there it's still finds itself well equipped for the changes that this will bring for starters they still need about three hundred civil servants and several hundred to several thousand. lawyers and economists who are trained in. laws mainly to be able to defend russia's interests on the world stage now to fill the shortage find itself having to hire foreign specialists and if it wants to train its own it will take another two years and some nine million euros about twenty to thirty thousand euros for each specialist that it wants to train abroad for having this is a crucial for russia are already voices from saying that there are possible disputes

especially regarding industries that have long enjoyed protectionist measures from the russian state. the country that had filed the complaint has every right to impose penalties on russia and this could be in the form of export duties will certainly be costly for russia now some russian officials say the problem goes all the way back to the education system and others also say that it will be very hard to convince very educated russian lawyers and economists to become a civil servants of a problem they will have to address within the country but in the after eighteen years again of preparation their only choice now is to cram in order to fill that shortage that they have right now. thanks for that update daniel. later this hour max herbert discussed prospects of a new great depression in the u.s. as well as financial bubbles in the world's economy that's the khans report on our .
