ten am in the russian capital you're watching r t. in syria activists have accused the country's security forces of killing over three hundred people outside the capital damascus the death toll in the south west town of iraq cannot be in a panel we verify but the government says it carried out an anti terror operation in the area the british foreign office has responded that sunday's massacre highlights urgent need for international intervention against the assad regime to and the violence moscow insist any unilateral action will only a grave a the conflict that's already claimed more than eight hundred thousand lives president assad has vowed to stand firm in the face of what he deems to be a western plot against his nation designed to uproot the government middle east specialist kevin believes what happened in the town of darius could be

a setup for military intervention. well once again as with the houla massacre we have a very interesting set of circumstances where right before this u.n. ministerial meeting coming up on august thirtieth we have a big orchestrated p.r. event. to smear the government in damascus and the west intervening in syria and i'm very suspicious i was asked about this shortly after the school massacre and i think we need to wait and see what really happened and there are some indications that much and perhaps most of the killing in the whole atmosphere was actually perpetrated by the rebel forces and the same thing might be true this time the so-called no fly zone of course what that really is this is just a euphemism for an aerial attack on the country and again i'm told that if western countries do try to take over syrian airspace he may very well be shot out of the skies and so i certainly hope they don't try because this is the world to the brink

of a very dangerous confrontation. later this hour r.t. talks to a german left wing politician yond i can about the ongoing bloodshed in syria he believes the government in berlin is two faced when it comes to the crisis. officially they don't take sides something sure of the. human rights violator repression within the country sure enough but am officially them up taking any other sides with a rebel to whatever but informally and with see it from their involvement you know with this by ship on the ground there now the staff and they invite syrian petitions the time thereafter and train them here so officially they seem to take sides but it's unclear to me who they are so somebody select the people and i don't know on the basis of which party area i've no clue i mean we now have been invited for find a discussion with my mom friend i mean how can you train some people and others not

to mean we as the left party linking hands. we've called perks to politicians some people are would know what i would pick but obviously these are different people. around one hundred pro palestinian activist have been stopped by israeli authorities on their way to the west bank from jordan the group aims to deliver aid to schoolchildren in bethlehem refugee camps but were reportedly turned away without any explanation israel's defense ministry lawyer labeled the activist move as a failed publicity stunt this latest incident follows another scandal involving palestinian children and number of israeli veterans have spoken out describing it degrading culture of abuse and harassment of youngsters in the west bank and gaza activists have released a report containing dozens of testimonies that detail numerous cases of violence committed by former soldiers are just polish we are as the story. the israeli

defense forces has come under fire from its own rank and file an organization known as breaking the silence has published the testimonies of some thirty israeli soldiers and commanders in which they deal specifically with how the idea of treats palestinian children palestinian minors they talk about the opposite of violence by soldiers when it comes to children and at the same time they say that very often the idea didn't booky targets children using them as human shields during its operations but these reports also going to say that even when children are not deliberately targeted they are not afforded any kind of protection when there is a shootout or any kind of military operation now these reports come out on the heels of another two damning conclusions that were reached by two separate groups one being an imminent group of british lawyers and another an international human rights group known as save the children foundation now both of these found that the idea is in violation of international law when it comes to how we treat palestinian

children they say that very often these children. are put into solitary confinement they are treated and abused they suffered extensive damage at the same time the army is using things like shackles to extract confessions from these children that those confessions are extracted under duress and also these children are not afforded any kind of legal representation now also this weekend there were demonstrations as indeed there are if we wreak admirably which is a palestinian village villagers there are complaining about the gradual encroachments of a nearby settlement on the water supplies they say that those water supplies are being taken over by the citizen as a result they have no water with which to use on the fields all for drinking water but in footage that was captured on camera these soldiers can be seen going from house to house and physically taking people out of their homes one person was injured at least six people were arrested five of them were children and there are

pictures of the daughters of one woman trying to save their mother as she was manhandled by these soldiers who were also using stun grenades so certainly not a good time for the i.d.f. it's finding itself been criticized on a number of fronts policy r.t. tel aviv. and coming up later in the program tolerance test. some of you that this is not the islamic world they have to accept that in germany it is ok to criticize islam if they cannot accept that they shouldn't be allowed to live here germany reminds its muslim community his laws come first by allowing protestors to display cartoons of the prophet muhammad get the full story in a couple of minutes. and in just a few minutes find out how doing the basic things all journalists should ally gathering the facts could land reporters i blacklist have some governments.

in time iran has opened the doors to delegates of the sixty's gathering of the self described naing states the largest international summits to have ever been housed said by the islamic republic fifty leaders from the countries which don't consider themselves connected to any power block are expected to convene in tehran within the week nuclear weapons nonproliferation and the conflict in syria will be among the issues topping the agenda the un secretary-general ban ki moon has decided to attend despite pressure from washington and its allies which have been accused of trying to play down the importance of a summit asia times correspondent pepe escobar believes no western tam's to undermine the gathering will succeed. but just look at the map it's very simple who is into run at the moment this is the real international community trying to find solutions to pressing problems such as the running nuclear dossier and the war in syria and the coverage i have to talk about journalism here as

a journalist to cover it in american mainstream media ranges from the sick to the absurd it will be only talk about iran trying to use credentials and show that it's not isolated it was never isolated in the first place this is a figment of the imagination of the ability ministration and you. opinion polls the allies and the g.c.c. but your monarch is in the middle east so this is a real zimri important meeting this is how to implement diplomacy works at the highest levels you have to find a solution involving the main partners in the region and a solution that will save face for everybody the problem is there may be people who are interfering which are basically they just to see better monarchist even if they are in the end washington they don't want a rational solution they want through gene change and so you know this goes way beyond you know you can have joint u. five summits all over the world and you'll never find a solution for this contradiction how are you going to spread democracy in the

middle east when you're calling for a humanitarian bombing or regime change based on a bunch of guerrillas in a sovereign nation and don't forget if you missed some of our stories you can always find them on our website r.t. dot com in-depth news and analysis available twenty four seventh's. activist group and imus announces war on the u.k.'s special service and support of the when he thinks had a territory in a songe launching online attacks on a number of key websites plus. prisoner with benefits norwegian authorities pledge to grant undisclosed conveniences to a mass murderer anders breivik as they fear for his mental health find out the details are. more news today violence is once again flared up. these are the images for girls

a base here in berlin to respect our laws. a spokesperson for germany's islamic community has said they won't be baited into taking action. point out we're going to ignore these people and we will not organize a concert demonstration that is the right position to take and it is one that will hold there was a reaction elsewhere though in egypt a man tossed four nail bombs into the grounds of the german embassy he said he was incensed by the court's decision to allow the cartoons to be shown during the protest right wing politicians say that while in germany muslims should accept german law obviously. one of his and this is not the slimy quilts we should be able to decide what cartoons are shown or they have to accept that in germany it is ok to criticize islam if they cannot accept that they shouldn't be allowed to live here and right wing groups say that muslims aren't the enemy their problem is with

government policy which they claim allows islamic extremism safe haven within german borders and if they're doing awful quiet our message is clear it's not the kebab seller but the politicians following false parlous ease who are your enemy before they're the ones wearing islamic extremists thrive here the incident with the cartoons isn't the first time german courts have passed controversial judgement regarding islamic beliefs already this year a ban on circumcision received outcry from the country's muslim community if lawmakers want to avoid future protests of this nature then it's up to them to come up with a solution to tensions between non muslims and germany's islamic community peter all of a r.t. berlin. to policy right numbers want to buy the russian authorities have reportedly fled the country and they are said to be helping to strengthen their movement by recruiting feminists who brought the news has calmed just over a week since three women were jailed for two years after pulling an anti put in

u.s. gulf coast at least three states have already declared emergencies the storm hit south florida with heavy rain on sunday an exact specter to slam into other parts of the country as a category two hurricane on wednesday this as a restoration of words but gone and haiti after a tam people died of four hundred thousand were forced to evacuate to escape the floodwaters as isaac battered the caribbean. everyone should now both sides of the story or at least in principle and yet that's not the premise the u.s. government seems to be sticking to want to comes to telling the truth about its operations overseas as artie's guy next to count reports it's the people tasked with uncovering the real facts are suffering the most. in the u.s. free speech is protected by law so what can the government do when they don't like what some journalists reveal about them it turns out

a smear campaign is one of the options chris woods is co-founder of the london based bureau of investigative journalism the organization to great efforts to report on the deaths of many civilians in cia drone strikes overseas the cia. elements of the u.s. intelligence community chose to attack or work. rather investigate some of the points that we were raising for the particular of the deaths of civilians in several articles including this one in the new york times an anonymous u.s. government official tacitly accused the journalists of being sympathetic to al qaida let's be under no illusions there are a number of elements who would like nothing more than to malign these efforts and help al qaeda succeed to suggest that in any way only or more a news organization a pure investigative journalism or in any way sympathetic towards al qaida or its goals it's disgraceful i do think those kind of smears indicate the stakes involved

the cia remembers claiming that there were no you civilians in pakistan for more than a year and our reporting the reporting of many of the credible newspapers and academics now simply isn't the case that simply aren't true usa today journalist tom banda burke and ray locker became the subject of a sustained internet campaign to discredit their work just days after they began publishing the results of their investigation into a multi-million dollar pentagon funded propaganda mission in iraq and afghanistan fake websites twitter feeds and facebook accounts were set up under the journalist's names in which they were accused of being backed by the taliban we tried to contact mr locker but he wrote back saying his editors prefer that he does not do any interviews on the. subject but it's smear campaign wasn't the punishment for the prominent yemeni journalist hyder shying he was the first to report on the

u.s. drone strike in yemen which killed fourteen women and twenty one children back in two thousand and nine he's now in jail in yemen upon the request of barack obama himself convicted of having ties with terrorists and what's what's most outrageous for me as a as an american journalist is the role of the u.s. ali abdullah saleh the president of yemen gets a phone call not from john brennan or whatever obama's advisers but from president obama himself and president obama said we're very concerned about the release of this guy we don't know the full extent of what happened in that phone call with the white house and state department in fact i interviewed the state department admitted that obama in fact said the u.s. wants him to stay in jail here in the u.s. or in the u.k. for that matter journalists are protected by law and it's not easy to put them in jail but there is one way to get back at them try and discredit their work by suggesting they're helping terrorists or the taliban or whatever else one might argue that the label carries out is becoming an all too convenient for the

government to brush off investigative journalism which exposes their flaws and kind of check our reporting from washington. and straight to the gold man of daniel bushels got to hold the latest news for us dan over to you is already at record highs the gold price could more than double from here according to metals guru to mccutcheon. you have massive amounts of printing right now that's been sort of very carefully and very well concealed to plug up deficits what people are sinking about any talk with the four thousand five hundred dollars no argument is when the velocity of money does kick up basically what happens everyone scared take the money of the banks take the money out of different things that investment and keep the money cache no where it is narratives that he's a basically be the churn over money goes down now once people sort of see there's lots and lots of printing money for the system to get money to move around in the build new businesses and everything else once they start to kick in and the velocity of money kicks up but they printed so much money in the past three years

that when the velocity does kick in effect it has is much bigger because that much more money out in the system and that's where you get the gold price of oil. but as i understand gold prices have been mostly driven up only by belief that base is a safe asset is about ultimate bubble to say that it's a bubble it's pretty hard because we talk about the total amount of assets invested in gold globally it's ministry very very few people actually have gold in their investment portfolios very people very few people have gold is there gold mining shares or gold related stocks in their overall investment portfolio and so that this doesn't smell like a bubble a bubble is when people take out margin one hundred to one to buy an internet stock that they don't know anything about that has no revenue no earning and who knows who's been around for two months it's not a bubble if you're buying for cash gold not on margin and sticking it in your seat that's not a bubble and that's more that represents more of the gold market today than any
