hard to tell what's true and false in the syrian war as major media outlets use dubious human interest stories to prove sympathy for rebels also being boosted by high take arms from outside. sweden says the no two edward has requests to question julian assange and at its embassy in london wiki leaks says there's no meaningful explanation for the refusal and the legal guarantees that stockholm one has handed over to the u.s. . and you in the army now with a law that allowed arabs living in israel to avoid military service expires triggering concerns the government is stoking social conflict at home tighten its grip on the minority.

you're watching r t live from moscow with me tom would say while syria still locked in bloody confrontation on the ground another war is also being waged the media won and as our t. has discovered even the world's most respected media outlets who have huge influence in shaping public opinion results are distorting facts laura smith is in london for us. escapes journalists speaks out says the headline in the b.b.c. on the guardian syrian regime t.v. reporter defects they're talking about hats hands who claims he was a reporter to syrian state t.v. channels but couldn't bear to be a part of the propaganda machine anymore and after spying for the rebels for months eventually defected to turkey but the syrian news channel. says he's nothing

but a fantasy business with. claims used to work as a correspondent in the syrian news channel have nothing to do with reality. he applied a half ago at the channel didn't find a job so says from near the other t.v. stations labor claims to work for also confirmed he never had nevertheless the guardian and b.b.c. have jumped on the story as the first example of quote a high profile defector from damascus is powerful propaganda arm but as an actual anchor from pointed out when we spoke to him if labor really was a public figure it wouldn't have been hard to verify his credentials. i saw his profile on facebook and was shocked to discover it says he was right there are a lot of ways to check this out each of us has an idea of a journalist employed by the syrian news channel that we can use to confirm our identity and employment if it comes to that we have our stories and materials to

prove that to each journalist accumulate some materials in the process especially if they were the syrian news channel. the british media has used this labor to tell a story of a propaganda machine in syria that pumps out us pro-government message we're godless of the truth meanwhile the b.b.c. and the guardian appear to be sticking like blue to their own line. rebels from fringe of right says labor himself now says he wants to work through an association channel he told the guardian he met someone from al-jazeera who calls him a government spy with a psychological problem perhaps that is closer to the truth than the british media got. yet another group of activists in exile from syria is forming an opposition alliance in addition to the western backed syrian national council which they see as a failure they also plan to establish

a transitional government by engaging the rest of the country's opposition in dialogue the move has further spread rebel factions with the syrian national council precise in the initiative meanwhile fighters battling government troops in the country have reportedly obtained a supply of surface to air missiles the arms were apparently delivered from neighboring turkey that as the u.s. considers boosting its fifteen million dollar aid budget to the rebels lawrence freeman an editor at executive intelligence review review magazine says this doesn't help to resolve the syrian crisis. the us is supporting absolute chaos and destruction so there's not going to be any stability it is now publicly known and it's been publicized on the front pages of the new york times that al qaeda is very aggressive in the syrian opposition and in fact al qaeda wants to have a are rocking syrian sunni out kadir force to take on the shia so this is going to

cause massive chaos and destruction the country and then secretary panetta says no no let's try to keep the military force to not repeat literally the most stupid mistake we made in iraq british shows you that there's no thinking there's no forward powell see coming from the u.s. to help this situation. so to come up with you in the program the white house rushes up pressure on iran imposing more sanctions the banks in china and iraq now taking the heat. plus a clash between the spanish government and the country's regions as millions of people dare out for yet more protests against deeply unpopular all start to measure . so we discussed already has had declined to aqua does invitation to question julianna songs in its london embassy without any meaningful explanation according to weaken the street to feed the whistleblower has been holed up in the latin american countries diplomatic mission but over six weeks now seeking asylum

a songes wanted in sweden for questioning over sex crime allegations which he denies he begins proceedings maybe just a pretext to hand him over to the u.s. where he has a prosecution on espionage charges for a mess of leaks of secret diplomatic and military files and to war activists and journalism done the boss says washington is on an all out hunt for signs and is willing to sidestep international law to get him. well they're not interested in questioning him they're interested in you know obtaining control of his person and i think he correctly assesses that that's so he can be forwarded to the united states there are currently three actions the world already brought in u.s. federal courts against a songe they were all nominally dismissed but the most recent one the court allowed that upon service upon their silence that the action could go forward so there's a ready legal activity that could give the u.s. a foot into the swedish courts there's

a history of this kind of game playing with sweden and extradition and the songes very correct to be cautious of what's going on those who are whistleblowers have come under particular attack from this administration from the obama administration in fact much greater attack than. even the bush administration was able to muster on whistle blowers earlier so the outlook is not good for a songe as one of the preeminent whistleblowers of our time this country in general is hostile to the idea of free speech and particularly disclosure of state secrets particularly when they reveal that the government has been doing illegal things so i don't think that the prospects for a fair trial are very good at all. now while. the red student has made his own talk show here a nod t.v. interview in controversial figures off world politics you can watch all twelve issues of this program online by logging on to a sunset done r.t. dot com.

i. he watching r t thanks for tuning in arabs living in israel can no longer defer military service as the only law allowing them to do so has expired as a game prompted feel as of a deeper split in israeli society as arabs who previously volunteered to serve in the israeli defense forces have been seen as traitors by many in their own community artie's policia explains. a monument to israel's fallen look more closely and you will see many of the names are of arabs all just fighters who joined an army that many of the birth one here call the enemy. but in meetings like this across the country the mood is changing most arab israelis are saying no to being drafted into the israeli defense forces the issue is up for debate as is well with views current military draft laws that allow orthodox jews and arabs to avoid national service mosque the israeli military wants to make

a serb not because they need us because they want to control the arab state of mind and divide us. in a time of war the army generals will call a party in ages and against whom will they fight against our arab and palestinian brothers. but remarkably some arabs actually choose to serve in the last two years those volunteering for the i.d.f. doubled to four hundred. i volunteered because this is my home away and i don't have another land and i live here and so i feel it's my responsibility to contribute to the country without the right of of them let their super stupid others also serve an idea if it means their family has been branded traitors people who have sold out to the enemy for money. i'm not a traitor i am an israeli arab i think it's high time that the arabs of israel shoulders some of the responsibility and volunteer for the army i'm not saying

there's no races no liberation but chill me a country that's perfect. the i.d.f. is working hard to recruit from the ranks of the country's one and a half million arabs one of the recruiters is colonel made from the druze minority . when the i.d.f. is composed of the full spectrum of israeli citizens with becomes a more moral army but the issue of culture is very significant we are so-called disconnecting the soul just from their culture and immersing them in another cause . which is israeli integration is difficult. but the voices of criticism from within the arab community are loud not in a shift says the i.d.f. is an occupying force and those arabs who choose to serve in it cross the line you cannot ask me to serve them well then why are you asking me three years i mean doesn't go like this a vast majority of our community sees a. bad thing to do. with the tollner said to expire on

august the first arab israelis and ultra-orthodox jews who until now have been exempt from military service may find themselves forced to do so regardless of their beliefs each israeli prime minister has said to the arab community first serve in the army and then you will be treated as equals but arab israelis are asked what kind of equality is it when regardless of whether they serve in the army or not israeli jews will always be more equal than them are t. tell of of washington has tighten the screws on iran once again with new sanctions against the country as well as others targeting banks in china and iraq the u.s. says they helped iran evade international penalties jamil policy director in the national iranian american council believes its ordinary citizens of the bear the brunt. i think what we have in place is it constitutes economic warfare and it dovetails nicely with this cyber warfare and the covert warfare that we are now engaged in with iran but what they want to build

a do was to actually sanction every single financial energy inside of you broad to make it legally impossible to send any goods to iran or for you to send anything out to the majority of what the bill does is actually impose these restrictions that are blocking medicine from getting into iran that are blocking food and humanitarian products from getting into you are on their isolating iranian students who want to study abroad and so when you actually add them all up the human rights measures fall pretty short and it's sort of a joke to say that this is advancing human rights when you're punishing people on a humanitarian level like this you can find mall on iran including israel's military plans it was a country and pell plenty of other stories online and the lines was to oisin last name to establish its first facility on russian soil find out what it is and why. the new rules should protect women in france away sexual harassment in the workplace has been made

yards who have hit the streets in anti-government demonstrations. to measures unacceptable especially with so many already in the streets to stand around there by then strangling our country it's crucial that we react if we don't crush workers in any country of the world. and it's here that the social divide in spain is seen clearly policemen and firemen are on both sides of the protest unlike the greeks the spaniards have been very peaceful in their anti-government protests but the deeper the country goes into austerity measures the hungry and the more aggressive people get taking their anger into the streets on july eleventh the spanish government announced more budget cuts will be introduced in order to find another sixty five billion euros for a bank bailout plan and called it a necessary last resort measure this well and thought if you can this moment that this is a hard moment it was difficult for us to accept these new measures and we understand

the feelings of the protesters in the only thing we can ask now is to be strongly that if these measures are necessary. hundreds of thousands were quick to react hitting the streets across spain in eighty cities in total and in the rather untypical scenario for the country ordinary citizens clashed with the police thirty nine people were injured in madrid alone while police had to use tear gas and rubber bullets against the regime crowds some of which shockingly enough where they're calling. the people when you take their food you take all that they have you take their you know homes and they respond quite viscerally what we saw were you know police charging against other police protesting police we saw them charging against firemen and we saw them charging against public sector workers and chasing them through the streets of madrid and you know neighborhood neighborhoods in madrid that actual people that live there were actually throwing flower pots from the balconies at the police now that's

a qualitative change what is adding more fuel to the already explosive situation is that financial forecast for next year suggests things will be getting even worse if the government sticks to its austerity policy seen. if there are no radical changes in political economic and social spheres. unspinnable gradually turning to green the level of street tension will reach a claim. that spain already possesses europe's highest unemployment rate of twenty four percent or six million people imagine what a crowd of this size could do in a moment of street rage should madrid take another risky attempt to deprive them of their means of survival. reporting from madrid in spain. and a little over ten minutes we talked to john claude perry a leading architect of the modern european union who thinks that the blog a should not leave the spaniards and greeks to face the problems. we are

deciding to go and no one should be the weakest link which might bring a catastrophe we come up go on and some interviews with or stanley t. and giving hope to the people who it is possible just ask the people of this great there really was a falling unemployment is increasing and storms will fall and we have a. paid for produce border with israel and you have a busy reactions of people in the street to chop completely understandably. so i think we have to give hope to these people. now look at some other stories making headlines around the world at the seven hundred people have been killed and dozens wounded in clashes between security

people's republic of china but it appears as if most of the states in africa have a very positive view of the burgeoning relationships between the african states and china and i think this is something that's very very frustrating for the united states the u.s. has been heavily dependent upon oil that comes from various parts of africa there has been huge discoveries just recently of both oil and natural gas in east africa off the coast of east africa and these of course are providing new opportunities for the people's republic of china to enter into economic partnership with africa and because of the economic crisis in the united states it's going to pose a challenge to the u.s. state department i don't believe that hillary clinton is going to be successful and discouraging this growing relationship between africa and china in fact she may bring about some resentment for involving herself in the internal affairs of africa
