asked to made it at the eleventh 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's reckon struction will be meanwhile some already starting to lose patience mohamed a flower trader has returned home to find all three of his cars burned out he used to calm himself among supporters. government but now his loyalties are uncertain i don't support the opposition i want to live here like my father and grandfather but if the government can provide us with peace and security either i have to move to

a patron come across. in the west but also a battle between some groups of society and even across the assad and his family left the country there are two million our wives two million christians and. many of them around. more radical muslim groups who are receiving bring a role in the fighting. jihadists with strong british accents among the coalition forces fighting against president assad in syria so says a recently released doctor for the folks who have been taken hostage by opposition forces log onto our web site r.t. dot com to find out more on that. sweden has rejected without explanation a request by ecuador to interview julian the sons in the south american countries embassy in london that's according to wiki leaks twitter feat that was so close being holed up in the embassy for the past six weeks seeking asylum in ecuador

wants to avoid being extradited to sweden of a sex crime allegations and fears he will then be sent on to the u.s. with more from london. into this twisted feeds they have rejected the invitation without any kind of meaningful explanation and i mean this is doesn't really come as a particular surprise ever since this case began almost two years ago now. has been has been offering for this week to come to london and question him here and they've never done that so this is an ongoing thing i guess maybe what his legal team and indeed the ecuadorian diplomats tell could be different this time is that the invitation isn't coming from just us on himself it's coming from a novice state so he's got another state operating on his behalf so it's almost like it's on equal terms it really begs the question does the swedish prosecutor really want to get to the bottom of this case it certainly looks as if she doesn't and if not then of course. meanwhile diplomats have been working on

julian assange as his behalf and seeking assurances from the u.k. sweden and the us that he will be extradited to america if he does go to sweden they've received no response on that they've also been trying to get the u.s. to either confirm or deny that legal proceedings are a grand jury having been been subpoenaed in the us again no response from america. has been holed up now in the in the ecuadorian embassy here in london for weeks he fled citing human rights violations to avoid extradition to sweden on these allegations but no charges of sexual offenses and he's under quite trying circumstance it's very cramped in there it's only a small embassy is no outside space at all and of course if he does step outside the embassy he's liable to be arrested by the british police his mother has been quick all this week to plead her case and she says she's extremely worried about the state of his health she says he's under extreme stress in the ecuadorian

embassy and he's been under long term extreme stress for the last two years while these this case is being going on and he's really living in conditions similar to detention. with that still ahead a shocking discovery in a russian woodland you evidence is a field in the gulf region a story about barrels with human fetuses found in central russia. plus more rested and riot police. says this is really after the police shot and killed two suspects earlier this month. but first a twin car bomb blast has killed at least twenty people in iraq and injured fifty seven this follows a series of attacks in the country with the death toll in july exceeding two hundred one it's comes as an american multi-billion dollar effort to train local police has been debated to be complete failure. from the water call believes the u.s.

will do everything in its power to maintain its influence in the 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 he said no. washington was unhappy 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. just remind you the stories we're covering on air also available on our website dot com they're also plenty of other videos and news there including russian anticorruption campaign the no position blog and they seem not only to be charged with embezzling to the case that has caused a storm among the public and russian federation. plus an absent minded musician is breathing a sigh of relief off to a volley in with millions left on board the swiss train has returned to its. wealthy british style to sign it's a spot on the turn of the. markets

unemployment or the people of explains. 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 and those working for him suffered abuse and attacks the hands of local views 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 today we have basic developments in the old part of the jam in the 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 go education is in the part of this problem of

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 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 i mean 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 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 used throwing rocks through my windows 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 further rise in social problems in the country areas. peter all over. jenny. meanwhile over in the u.s. a weak economy is thousands struggling to keep hold of their homes later today here on r.t. max kaiser looks at wall street's role in the country's mortgage crisis. 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. trust ask the soon pass the cherokee ask any of these tribes are still waiting for the land that the us government promised one hundred fifty years ago we're going to true you we'll go call mother they probably give it to him now it's completely destroyed you know but they're not going to make good

enough of the stuff they're just getting the last bit of the carrots they possibly can out of the pockets out of the couches and sitting on the cushions of these people's houses you've got wall street small doesn't know what a vacuum cleaner trying to suck up that last nickel i was going to have to go. on. because reporters little later on today you not see the new chilling twist in the scandal surrounding a horrific discovery in a russian forest where hundreds of human fetuses were found last week police say they've been dumped there by a medical academy which has openly admitted to having made regular disposal still it's unclear from where the state institution got the fetuses and what it was using them for so if you should tell us has been following the story. 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 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. now let's have a quick look at some other stories making headlines around the world in. the second as many days in india has left more than six hundred million people over half the country without electricity the blackout as if there were one hundred fifty coal miners trapped underground of the rescue operations earlier pulled out forty six of them india frequently suffered shortages resulting from its inability to meet the nation's rapidly growing demand for energy. u.s. secret state hillary clinton kicks off an african tool with the first stop in senegal talks will be held on security in the value of democracy as well as china's growing influence on the continent u.s. officials say clinton will drop african leaders about the perils of chinese investment. take a few questions jessica several protesters in anaheim california were arrested outside a city council meeting on monday as they rallied for a ninth straight day demanding the state's top attorney investigate the city's

police force offices of eight people so far this year including two they shot and killed earlier this may this meant i should say many of their targets were unarmed juveniles are wrong goods as police the actions of the police a result of racial profiling. the people are tired this is not something this is not one one case this is really a systematic problem that's been happening for generations in anaheim in a city where more than half of the population there is latino fifty three percent of the population is that you know they don't have any political representation and they feel that the police department really use you know racial profiling and retaliate against them so that's why we saw the community i mean mothers you know with strollers all kinds of people from the community coming out these aren't even activists they're just people who are completely fed up with the treatment they receive from the police and in response we now see the famous video where the police you know sic dogs on people they shot them with rubber bullets these are women and children who were not activists they weren't anarchists they want people trying to cause problems they were simply just denouncing the brutality that the

police use against their people in their community just outside of the doors it is in that you 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 needs to be called out so i think that's where some of the organizations decided to do go to disneyland to stay exposed everyone so the realities of anaheim. dimitris next with the business there is dimitri russia's. accession the world trade organization is just around the corner but apparently there's a new hurdle on the horizon tell us what's going on well yes indeed next month we already will see the full access in but which was a surprise it turns out russia is lacking civil servants actually to represent to represent the country within the trade body and defend basically its its rights and its interests well here's a report from our tests awsome. 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 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. on the world stage now to fill the shortage 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 having this is the. voices from say that there are possible disputes especially regarding industries that have enjoyed protectionist measures from the russian state. any of this 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 russia. to become civil servants. to address the country after eighteen years again of preparation their only choice now is to cram in order to fill that shortage that they have right now. rather than move on record food prices. expected. of major food. is now called mission impossible. in the countries expected to. rights by the end. the prime minister became a bit of
