with fierce battles raging on in the syrian civil conflict the u.s. is making suggestions on how the country's future should be built without president assad. another example of u.s. post-war planning a new report says washington has wasted millions of dollars training iraqi police in a program which has turned out to be a complete failure. plus fears of a violent far right movement a growing across germany europe's financial meltdown begins to topple one of its strongest economies.

a very warm welcome to you from all of us here at r.t. moscow i'm a rule research showing that the un says its observer mission in syria has come under attack in an opposition held area just outside the flashpoint city of homs officials have confirmed the convoy was hit by small arms fire although the civil standoff is continuing in syria foreign powers may be getting ahead of themselves about the outcome of the u.s. and our state is increasing its support for the rebels washington's now making suggestions as to what they post syria should look like pentagon chief leon panetta says that when the regime falls the country's military should remain intact but it's not he's open on a boy who reports from damascus many syrians feel they are being left unprotected in the ongoing conflict. it doesn't take much to set syrians off these days on average 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 canonically 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 the pro-government and your attempting to distribute fuel at prewar prices it's 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 but what they find in their 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 and billion dollars and still counting that's almost seventy percent of the country's annual budget you can argue about who's to blame for all this destruction but it's certainly a very high price to pay for any sort of struggle whether it is for democracy or stability no matter who emerges the winner syrians have already lost the government has promised to help the rebuilding but the scale of destruction and the already flagging economy that's the question of just how fast and how efficient that record structure will be meanwhile some already starting to lose patience mohamad a flower trader has returned home to find all three of his cars burned out he used to college himself among supporters of the cover. but now his loyalties are uncertain but there is really i don't support your position i want to live here look my father and grandfather but if the government can provide us with peace and

security either i don't have to move to another country or the government needs to go. 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 yet. although we want to finish bashar ourselves enough of him in addition to political differences the conflict in syria is also generational the young want to fight while the old struggle to find cover and their only goal was to drag syria into chaos everything was fine now it's only getting worse. both the army and the rebels claim they're fighting for a better life but the majority of civilians trapped in between shudder at the thought of how much worse it's going to get before it gets any better than the boy

who are reporting from damascus and syria. now cost of the updating her twitter feed with the developments ongoing inside syria you'll also find our reactions and analysis of the events in and around the country one of the post comments on leon panetta recent advice to president assad quote if you care about your family get the hell out of the country she says it sounds pretty much like the rebels motto give up or die. political analyst dr ashraf believes there's also a psychological war being waged deep inside syria. it's part of the psychological warfare that the newspapers in washington and new york times washington is filled with. common. the never. to be there the guard and the warden. for example to use chemical.

facilities is. respected my note it is as if. that is going to model but frankly we have some newspapers which dates as back as june two thousand and eleven we predicted the imminence of our bashar to fall. vs our part of the psychological. now the us is preparing to send hundreds of military police all across the world to help local authorities handle security when needed special units have already been created by the country's marine corps the move comes after a recent report claimed that washington's multi-million dollar effort to train local police in iraq has been a complete failure john glaser from the antiwar dot com website believes the u.s. will do everything in its power to maintain its influence in any region. but

normally is this being wasted on a population that doesn't want to intervening but it's also going to what has happened already is that we 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 as 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 and afghanistan has been another major drain of american taxpayers' money the us has spent hundreds of millions on reconstruction in the country but the process is far behind church walls and costing much more than i originally estimated jason did this to corrupt authorities and a poorly planned spending. in afghanistan we've got the same problems we have the interact 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 it is just a recipe for that money being stolen or wasted or just disappearing a lot of these programs then 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 we ever consider if that program is even needed or wanted so hundreds of millions of dollars go wasted trying to watch nazi and more information about a shocking discovery coming up a bit later on the program new evidence is unveiled in the gut wrenching story about the barrels with human fetuses found in a woodland in central russia. plus more arrests in anaheim as riot police watch over a mob of protesters still fuming off the police shot and killed scene two suspects that was just earlier this month. by tempus they are a moscow time a russian anticorruption campaign and opposition blogger alex enough felony has been charged with embezzlement he came to the public's eye when he led mass antigovernment protests in moscow this past winter and charges against him of course to storm in russian society let's get more on this now and across live to

our t.j. congreve to give us more details on this jake about what exactly is the valley been accused of and to date and to this case what's been the reaction so far. sure well novelli himself being charged with embezzlement now this dates back to two thousand and nine where he said to serve as an advisor in the kirov region to local authorities there now at the time he's alleged according to what we're hearing at the moment to resided over a contract which led to loss in local budget terms around five hundred thousand dollars since he's been accused here of stealing it timber that's what led to the claim of embezzlement you know it comes from the valley where he has been very active very prominent in the media spotlight tickly of late where he's a clue accused alexander best troop in the rushes chief investigator of having undisclosed illegal assets residing in the czech republic has also been well known when it comes the opposition movement as you mentioned and really he's been

championed by the international media as one of the leading figureheads when it comes that so-called white ribbon movement that has stood against disputed parliamentary elections back in december with allegations of electoral fraud and also the run up to the inauguration of valmy putin and better made putin himself as president now know valley and others are saying that this is politically motivated it's attempt to use me his name would you have to stress at the moment we are dealing with criminal charges this is an investigation into alleged economic crimes and if found guilty if he's convicted he could be facing twenty five and ten years in prison. for his. live in central moscow thank you. now europe's financial crisis is showing that even the strongest economies are not immune to struggles as desperation spreads into germany fears are growing that there could be a wave of attacks by far right groups on immigrants who they are blaming for the unemployment this explanation to r.t.

as peter oliver. this sleepy town in saxony seems i 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 open a pizzeria he and those working for him suffered abuse and attacks would be hands of local news on police over every time we called the police and 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 due to europe's current financial predicament we could see a similar rise again i would these are popular models today we have facing developments in the i would parts of the germany a lack of jobs leads to helplessness and despair which are the main ingredients the trend is young handsome flour right ideology. there is a belief among activists down the issue of right wing extremism is being ignored by large numbers of the german people. education is in that part of this problem the

need citing as a how to pay more attention to it. there needs to be more options for cultural integration especially for young people germany's far right national democratic party or in p d that faced calls for them to be banned from politics the n.p.t. say that they'll be in and be opposed to any organization carrying out violent attacks and are working with young people to try and educate them i mean don't loiter our message to young people who come to our seminars and that is that it's not the kabab center who is your enemy but rather the politicians who are at the wheel of the country and whether those words reopen mahomet's pizzeria is 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 he's throwing rocks through my window . right as even germany's robust economy starts to really feel the pinch of the eurozone crisis there are concerns that we could see

a nice and social problems in the country areas. between all of us. jenny. and i meanwhile over in the united states a weak economy has thousands struggling through foreclosures let us today on our team max kaiser looks at a wall street's role in the country's ongoing mortgage crisis. after seizing the mortgage it condemning it and seizing at 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 for hard to went after so fast the cherokee ask any of these tribes are still waiting for the land that the u.s. government promised the one hundred fifty years ago we got through to you we'll go call mother they probably give it to him now it's completely destroyed you know that they're not going to make good on the other stuff they're just already getting

the last bit of the care. they possibly can out of the pockets of the couches sitting behind the course of these people's houses you've got wall street doesn't know what a vacuum cleaner trying to suck out that last nickel i was asked to go. by from moscow this is a new chilling twist in a scandal surrounding horrific discovery in a russian forest where hundreds of human fetuses were found just last week police say they've been dumped by a medical academy which is openly admitted to having made regular disposals still it's unclear where the state institution got the fetuses and what it was exactly using them for. thomas has been following the story police have tracked down the car that they say was responsible for dumping these fetuses in the woods of fetuses were 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. well you can follow the developments of this story on our website where we have many other stories for you including an unappreciative job a female group faces trial of being accused of.

today. these are the. corporations are today.

know the people do not think it's the happiest place on earth there's a lot of violence against poor people in anaheim and they need to be called out so i think that's where some of the organizations decided to do go to disneyland this expose everyone so the realities of anaheim. straight into the arty world of there we go right now we'll start with india which is experiencing its second blackout in as many days after grids covering a dozen states broke down more than six hundred million people over half the country's population have now been left without electricity officials claim that hundreds of miners have been trapped underground because of the outage india frequently suffers power shortages resulting from its inability to meet the nation's rapidly growing demand for power. he was the secretary of state hillary clinton it kicks off african tour with the first stop in senegal topping the agenda over discussions on security concerns on the value of democracy in the region as well as china's growing influence a u.s. officials say clinton will warn african leaders about the potential perils of

chinese investment. all right as promised so there's dmitri standing by the r.t. business desk good to see you today we all know those of us saw those who have i phones they are very dedicated and devoted to them though here although the price is pretty darn high now apple's been dubbed a dictatorship for those lofty prices that's absolutely right rory one of the biggest mobile phone operators in russia has said that a price tag of one thousand dollars has been imposed on them by by apple basically so that's why they're not happy also other strict conditions have been imposed now the m.t.'s vice president says being arrogant with your partners in big markets does not pay off now experts say the chinese made smartphone costs just one hundred eighty eight dollars to make but the high price strategy may be backfiring because samsung's cheaper new galaxy has recently overtaken it as the world's most popular phone. now russia has hit unexpected bump on its way to

joining the world trade organization now it's short of civil servants to defend their country's rights at the body. reports. 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 eighteen years to prepare for when that time finally comes but now that it had almost gotten there it's still finds itself not well equipped for the changes that this will bring for starters they still need about three hundred civil servants and from several hundred to several thousand specialists especially lawyers and economists who are trained in trade policy and laws mainly to be able to defend russia's interests on the world stage now to fill the shortage russia may find itself having to hire a foreign a specialist and if it wants to train its own it will take another two years and some nine million euros that's twenty to thirty thousand euros for each specialist

that it wants to train abroad for having these horses especially crucial for russia they're already voices from the neighbors say that there are possible this especially regarding industries that have long enjoyed protectionist measures from the russian state should russia use any of this just a country that had filed a 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. the reports are let's move on now food prices on just bad news for shoppers record food prices central banks are now expected. to
