twenty four hours a day seven days a week of this is r t while syria's still locked in bloody confrontation on the ground another war is also being waged the media won and as already has discovered even the world's most respected media outlets who have huge influence in shaping public opinion results are distorting facts grossmith 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 labor 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 but. claims that he used to work as a correspondent in syria news channel have nothing to do with reality. he applied a year and a half ago but the channel didn't find qualified for the 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. but as an actual anchor from pointed out when we spoke to him it's labor really was a public figure it wouldn't have been hard to verify his credentials for i think i saw his profile on facebook and was shocked to discover it says he was right channel there are a lot of ways to check this each of us has an idea of a journalist employed by the syrian news channel so 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 and process especially if they were the syrian news channel. the british media has used labor to tell a story of a propaganda machine in syria that pumps out of a pro-government message with godless of the truth meanwhile the b.b.c. and the guardian appear to be sticking like glue to their. equals rebels equal freedom writers labor himself now says he wants to work for an association channel he told the guardian he met someone from al-jazeera who called 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 iraq syrian sunni out kadir for us to take on this year 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 still coming up for you in the program the white house rushes up pressure on iran imposing more sanctions with 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 gear up for get more protests against deeply unpopular all-star team measures. swedish authorities have declined to ecuador's invitation to question julian assange in this london embassy without any meaningful explanation according to wiki leaks twitter feed the whistleblower has been holed

up in the latin american countries diplomatic mission for over six weeks now seeking asylum a son is wanted in sweden for questioning over sex crime allegations which he denies he believes proceedings maybe just a pretext to hand him over to the u.s. where he fears prosecution on espionage charges for massive leak of secret diplomatic and military files antiwar activists and journalists a dhanda boss says a washington is on an all out hunt for sons and is willing to sidestep international law to get him. well they're not interested in questioning him they're interested in you know of treating 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 are all nominally this missed but the most recent one the court allowed that upon service upon
7:07 am
a sign is 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 a 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 whistleblowers 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. while under any house arrest julian assange has made his own talk show here are not team interviewing controversial figures of world politics you can watch all twelve issues of his program online by logging on

news from the stocks on t.v. dot com. you're 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 and it's again prompted fears of a deeper split in israeli society as arabs who previously volunteered to serve in the defense force have been seen as traitors by many in their own community artie's policy explains. a monument to israel's fallen look more closely and you will see many of the names are of arab soldiers fighters who joined an army that many of their 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 where we've used current military draft laws that allow orthodox jews and arabs to avoid national service.
7:11 am
the israeli military wants to make a server not because they need us because we want to control the arab states of mind and divide us. any time for 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. 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 supers two brothers also serve in the i.d.f. 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
7:12 am
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 ram is 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 cool 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 screaming for me i mean doesn't go like this a vast majority of our community sees a. bad thing to do. with the towel no citric spy on
7:13 am
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 r.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 at the u.s. says they help to run evade international penalties general abdi policy director in the national iranian american council believes it's ordinary citizens that 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
7:14 am
engaged in with iran but what they want to build a do was to actually sanction every single financial energy inside of iran to make it legally impossible to send any goods to iran or for iran 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 more in the running shooting israel's a military plane so was the country and plenty of other stories on line and the lines at the last only example of trust nature establishes its first facility on russian soil find out what it is and why at our comp. a new rules to protect women in france always sexual harassment in the workplace

left this has been the message over the past few weeks of hundreds of thousand spain yards who have hit the streets in anti-government demonstrations. stare into measures unacceptable especially with so many already in the streets the center on the base and then strangling our country it's crucial that we react if we don't do crossword because 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 in this moment that this
7:17 am
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 these measures are necessary and the. 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 were there calling on. 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 the actual people that live there are actually throwing flower pots from the
7:18 am
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 online or if there are no radical changes in political economic and social spheres then spain will gradually turning to greece so the level of street tension will reach a clash of imagined interest that of 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 lexy worships the artsy reporting from madrid spain. next hour we talk to john clarke perry a leading architect of the modern european union who thinks that the blog should
