the u.s. president outlines a possible military plan against syria as russia warns against democracy pod bombs syrian officials talk peace and moscow. is suspected on there's a very big sympathiser is charged with plotting a copycat massacre in the czech republic just days before the norwegian mass killer is due to hear his further. washington slammed for al qaida style tactics or striking those over logs to help victims in previous american drone writes. and a very warm welcome to you this is our team on karen taraji with you this tuesday

it's five o'clock here in moscow well syria's ongoing crisis and ways of ending the bloodshed are under scrutiny for top syrian officials and moscow across the atlantic president obama washington could use military action if there's any sign the syrian government might try to deploy its chemical or biological weapons more from artie's lucy coffin elf. they really contradicts with what russia has been pushing for throughout the course of this bloody conflict which is an international solution that really is originated on the ground by the syrian people by the syrian government and the factions involved with that conflict with now the u.s. president has really caused quite a stir with this comment on monday saying that the united states would reconsider its opposition to military intervention in syria if the government of president bashar al assad employs chemical or biological weapons there and according to the u.s. president this would be a so-called a red line which would have bring the united states physically in terms of force into the conflict now in the in the syrian government does possess an extensive

stockpile of chemical and biological weapons and hans threaten to use them in the country came under foreign attack it's unclear whether this is mere saber rattling by both sides but of course it really complicates efforts to find a diplomatic solution to this ongoing escalating crisis something that moscow has really been pushing for from the start now the russian foreign minister sergey lavrov on monday also reiterated his opposition has his warning of course that no unilateral solution is possible or could be effective in syria he said that an international collective agreement would be the preferred way forward to something similar to what the world powers and syria had agreed to in the geneva conference back in june of course all of this this is the sort of international way forward has really come under question after the u.n. security council had decided against extending its observer mission in syria really throwing questions into whether international agreements could really be the way

forward and perhaps a going against what the u.s. president is now warning which is unilateral action potentially in or out of lateral action by the united states if certain objectives aren't met and when serious topic anomic negotiator was in moscow in the beginning of august one of the bigger biggest issues that wasn't up for discussion was a potential loan for syria by moscow. well as well as the sale of oil to syria we do have to keep in mind that as this eighteen month conflict has raged on and the syrian people have really suffered in dire ways economically the impact of sanctions even though they're supposedly not directed at the people has really been to make life almost impossible for everyday syrians we also have to keep in mind that while food and fuel is not getting enough weapons are we've seen the reports of weapons being smuggled to the syrian opposition through the libyan border this really exasperates the conflict and really sets the situation up for a potential rapid escalation in fighting more so than what we've already seen.

only the un security council along can authorize the use of force against syria warning against the last election. ali mohamed says any reckless western interference won't lead to more violence when i hear obama talking about chemical weapons out of the blue i can tell you with no doubt that they are preparing a chemical weapons this year and government to learn from iraq from libya or from other places if the government army is winning why would the government give the u.s. a pretext to attack mr obama talked about being warty that the chemical weapons would reach the bad guys and the question is why is he and his administration supporting the bad guys and sending them to syria if he doesn't want bad guys to control the chemical weapons why is he supporting them if obama attacks syria or directly or. proxy with or without the chemical weapon this will definitely lead to

a devastating regional war that will create a whole new middle east. they ongoing violence has instigated a mass exodus of syrians into neighboring countries the u.n. says at least one hundred seventy thousand people have already fled artie's falsely or reports from the jordanian border. security here is tight and border controls are very very effective and this is a way for a man to deal with the growing influx of syrian refugees into this country now according to jordanian estimates at least one hundred and fifty thousand syrian refugees are currently in jordan they're being housed in with e.g. camps along this border and the jordanian government has build forts in the process of building another one but the situation in those camps is alarming and has caused humanitarian groups to talk about a humanitarian crisis we know that the camps are overcrowded people there have little to no access to water and electricity at the same time to the closest was broken out of the jordanian health ministry is talking about health risks they were

clashes last week between some of those refugees trying to break out of those camps because they actually can't leave them without permission now the violence is starting to spill over into two jordan just monday there were four shells that landed here one of them badly hurt a young or jordanian killed in a number of people were rushed to hospital so that as the syrian violence creeps closer and closer into neighboring jordan. foreign intervention doesn't always bring peace and stability to a country ravaged by bloody internal conflict as we discover shortly. warnings that libya should brace itself for a surge in violence the recent wave of bombings. police in the czech republic are investigating a man suspected of planning a copycat massacre to the one carried out by norwegian on their spread like last year weapons and police uniforms were discovered in his apartment just days before predict is due to hear the verdict for killing seventy seven people in two attacks

and looks at a chef ski reports. and off weaponry and explosives to kill dozens of people that was the discovery of the czech police when they raided at twenty nine year old man's apartment in the city of a strong the man was reported by his neighbors to have some mental problems that's why the police decided to take action and later they arrested this man he was carrying a remote detonator for an explosive device on him when he was detained but it's also been revealed by the czech police that an explosive device made of an aircraft bomb was found in his apartment and they did it could have killed dozens of people it was believed to be a very powerful explosive device of several kilograms of explosives in it the police are now does not reveal and does not know what this man's intentions were but it already has all the reasons to believe that the man was a sympathizer of the killer from norway on this break who is due to have his

verdict delivered this week sources within the interior ministry of the czech republic report that this man used a brave as he is on the internet in different forums and different social networks so they have reasons to believe that the man was sympathetic all of the of the killer from norway though for now the police is trying to determine whether there had been any connection between the two. and brady himself now will know little about this man for now that a few pictures had been released by the czech media of this man betraying the cops on him being put in a police car but for now the police are trying to keep all the information secret regarding this man so that he won't have any more followers and they're trying to determine whether he actually had any more followers or if he was blinding to act alone all right here with r t and still to come anonymous. u.k. government websites software disruptions at the hands of the notorious hackers in retaliation for breaking street and wiki leaks founder julian assange each. plus

security agencies the law in the u.s. protects free speech but never before has there been such a hunt for whistleblowers that's in america but as far as u.s. actions abroad the e.c.u. of what's legal and what's not even murkier washington has expanded its target assassinations program in different countries essentially putting itself above the law now i'm joined by john feffer author and co-director of the institute for policy studies he has an interesting theory of u.s. foreign policy he compares it to dexter the t.v. show dexter is a fictional character who is a good citizen by day and a serial killer by night but he only kills bad guys mystified for what's so wrong about being dexter i mean everyone loves dexter it's a very popular t.v. show here in the united states and all across the world but this is difficult moral questions because of course dexter is judge jury and executioner and sometimes he makes mistakes and the united states too is in

a similar position united states often says it only kills the bad guys of some of the. other figures that have been attacked by drones over the last few years but the united states also makes mistakes there have been any number of civilian casualties associated with these drone strikes so in some sense they're in a similar moral quandary dexter and the u.s. government as you said you know this administration has expanded its drone program dramatically and the strikes in pakistan yemen and other places they end up killing many civilians we're talking about extra judicial killings and. here's the question of pops out. you know when when someone does something outside the law they're usually afraid of getting caught but in the case of the us who is the police to catch them and there is no police is there well there isn't any police of course there are international laws and there have been a number of reports on the implications of international law on the drone attacks

and the un for instance report tour has condemned drone attacks as being illegal but i think the chief concern here for the united states in terms of getting caught is being caught by blowback in other words by the consequences of these drone attacks and those i think are significant because of course we've seen people here in the united states who have cited these drone attacks is the reasons for their terrorist activities for instance so i think it's blowback which really represents the casualty or shall we say the consequences that are most direct the drone program one retired senior pakistani air force officer told us not the tactics america is using and that's fine with terrorism may well backfire. the information which is being given out is very sketchy because especially since two thousand and nine the united states seems to have changed the rules. and the

able bodied. who can become sort of that militant will be considered militant in the spectrum of the fact. but the fact is that the relatives of the victims are approached by the terrorists and. for their lives have been targeted and killed it is high time that you can pick revenge and in fact the number of terrorists who are being groomed and recruited in this way is rising so it is not just a double edged sword it is counterproductive and it is increasing terrorism rather than reducing it. sweden says it won't extradite julian a songe to a third country if there was a risk it face the death penalty there and justice ministry official made the comments to a charmin newspaper london wants to hand it to sweden to face sex crimes accusations but the wiki leaks editor thiers he could then end up on trial in the u.s. offer the release of american to cables assad has been hiding for two months in the

weeks saying such things as now you gay does not acknowledge the ability to live in other nations go because that's up to the office of the west who is injured has forged it in terms of diplomatic policy it affected that william hague would say something about if the action shows us what who we're dealing with the terms of how crazy they get when they have to so you know we're always a very very happy that people have many many options by which to get involved in this situation which one side is very obviously again come up behavior and the other side is engaging in to solve those. it's not the only hack attack on the moment as we report online that part of. this is the home page of the moscow courts website and is able gerund transvestite singer looking back as hackers head out at the trailing l.v. and punk band pussy riot. also apple may be the world's most valuable company at the moment but it's not the biggest ever details of history it's tactile but it's

now a shadow of its former self all at r.t. top. egypt still managing the libyan authorities ensure the security of its diplomatic mission there it's after an egyptian diplomats car was blown up in the city of benghazi and just a day after twenty tak left two people dead in the libyan capital the authorities blame loyalists of the deposed leader moammar gadhafi and thirty two have been arrested libya remains unstable since the nato backed popular uprising resulted in ousting and death last year the editor of new york investigative newspaper blackstar news believes the latest violence could indicate other forces of interests in the towns in the country. it's not definitely know who could be behind these kind of actions i think what might be disturbing is that normally when

these kind of activities start they don't just. so sadly there could be such more actions similar explosions in the days and months to come and judging by the situation on the ground it's not clear that things are any better in libya today than before the nato intervention i think there's a rush to try to create a semblance of normalcy you really cannot have stability without addressing the issues of the weapons that are widely available at the end of the day the people that really. exercise power in libya today the armed militias there was some talk and the international criminal court then later would have to be brought to account for what amounted to war crimes who is going to address those issues so rather than focusing on the proposed trial of the son of qaddafi that's really addressed the more serious issues the destruction on libya that was caused by the nato who is

going to compensate libyans for the lives that were lost and the property that were destroyed that to me seems to be a much more serious issue than the proposed trial of one of qaddafi surviving sons . you know with our t. and we take a look now at some other news making international headlines a car bomb near a police station in southeast turkey has killed at least nine people including children and wounded scores of others no one has yet admitting the explosion but it comes amid intensified clashes between turkish troops and kurdish rebels who are fighting for in a tone in this region turkey believes the kurds are taking advantage of the conflict in neighboring syria to set up bases there. a gun battle in lebanon's northern city of tripoli has left at least two dead and several others wounded the country's endured a number of clashes between supporters and opposers of the regime in neighboring syria the military moved into well the fighting on both sides but it's later

a call for direct action to secure the area. every year thousands of russian orphans are adopted by american families with the hope of giving them a fresh start in life it doesn't always work out with tragic stories of abandonment and beatings for some but as you go to school all reports there is still one place those vulnerable children can call home. he's ten years old but has already been through more than most people would face in a way of time. this boy suffered deep psychological trauma and he often becomes secluded locks himself from the rest of the world and when it comes to america he still never talks about it in his relatively short life already been abandoned twice first by his biological russian mother and then by his american forster mother she changed her mind just six months after the adoption dumping him all alone on a flight back to moscow with nothing more than a note and

a change of underwear for the last six months out of jordan has been living in a children's s. always village just outside moscow an international project that brings a new format to the traditional concept of children's homes and foster families here children live in groups in separate houses each group then has its own forster mother heading up what out of john himself now calls a real family. the main goal for now is to help cover to get over his psychological problems and catch up education wise there's a large gap between what he knows and what he's supposed to know at this age. dozens of other children live in this village and although it's on decline to speak on camera he's once again playing and talking with the others about so wise it's hard to imagine what sort of stress i have to go through fortunately and a lot of time when he is recovering surrounded by other children unfortunately

thomas white has not been an isolated case. around sixty thousand russian children have been adopted by american families over the past two decades but twenty children have died through neglect and cases of mistreatment have become all too common. one family adopted six girls from russia and used them to film porn they've now been convicted another u.s. family specifically adopted children with disabilities just to mock them they tied them up threw them into a swimming pool put hoses in their mouths and turned on the water and these are just the cases we know of moscow is calling for the creation of a separate body within the u.s. government that will monitor the lives of children adopted from russia to prevent such stories of neglect ever happening again as for our terms former foster mother she was fined sixty thousand dollars by a us court and ordered to pay a quarter of her salary every single month until he's eighteen to
