12:12 am
and forcing people off benefits as part of the country's austerity drive they are making money out of other people's misery quite naturally the old many of them sponsoring the paralympics so i think it's really lost on them and he seems to divide people into the deserving to save and the un serving tony bradstock went through an at or sest moment which resulted in him losing his entire income for six months he says he was made to feel like a criminal and the process resulted in him attempting suicide work. for the world and. this was a. strictly explosive watch explosion what more occupational health doctor a shade took a break because i couldn't find any why i took over the roof. anyway i'd say he's not a load of pressure groups a thirty two people died a week after being found face to work by out of disabled people and other activists
12:13 am
have travelled here from all over the country to really test against actresses sponsorship of the paralympics there you really see it in their admiration for the paralympics themselves but it's a an organization and they feel that you ordinary disabled people should play no part in this. in a statement the company defends its practices and passes responsibility back to the government department for work and pensions which actually makes the final decision . we do not make decisions on people's benefit entanglement on welfare policy but who continue to make sure the disservice who grew wide is a highly professional and compassionate as it can be but disability activists say that just passing the buck and that at all says sponsorship of the games gives it a whitewash it doesn't deserve they're trying to clean up their image by trying to
12:14 am
associate themselves with sports you know this is so disability payments keep those activity that's really given the other side though how paul floats like kill people like oxman team g.b. athletes appeared to highlight the artist branding on their paralympic accreditation during the opening ceremony but activists say that's not enough when the top of the government expect to cause a round hole for a million people to lose their independent living benefits in the next four years. r.t. . and we've got more news on the paralympic games for you on our web site that's one of some other stories that even they have the best stuff like insulting the one in place in the funny how you bring your sitcom symbol of the party to you kate. plus making money the easy way to learn how talented the swindler treated billions

of dollars out of transporting back. charges won't be filed against dozens of cia officers accused of torturing two terror suspects to death at the tension facilities in iraq and afghanistan the u.s. justice department officially closed its investigation saying it didn't have enough evidence for a conviction and alison where from the counsel for the national interest believes the basic rules of law have been thrown out by washington. many of us feel that this is not finished that we are opposed to what went on and that there should be true justice and true pursuit of justice gone which we have not seen yet the cia destroyed some of the tapes that in itself is a criminal action that that itself shouldn't been pursued. hopefully will be pursued some time so the fact that there may be some difficulty in gathering
12:16 am
evidence we don't know that's really the case but a part of the difficulty certainly is because important evidence was destroyed there are still people in in the united states as well as around the world who are outreach to what's going. on but this has been a you know this is still the george w. bush administration's activities being carried on by the obama administration's actions as well i think they did expect that a great many liberals especially the conservatives too would be outraged at this violation of the rule of law and that's probably why this was announced as you say after you know a number of years that the announcement came the day before a major holiday in the united states labor day holiday i don't think that that coincidence is by accident. u.s. presidential nominee mitt romney closed out they see as republican national convention with some harsh criticism of barack obama at his handling of foreign affairs but did americans take any notice they resident is
12:17 am
a new york to find out. in the u.s. republicans and democrats are holding their national conventions and here the media and politicians talk about them that the most important things going on right now so who's watching and what have they seen this week let's talk about that have you been watching not why not because i don't like either one of those guys so you don't watch and you don't vote and that's that you know i do vote but i don't like voting for the word who's who's not the worst of the two. but do you need to watch the conventions to be informed no it's all crap have you been watching you know absolutely none of it why not i hate the republicans you know watch the democratic convention probably not why not i don't need to do you think there is actual information being said it's sad at the conventions or say just kind of any b.s.
12:18 am
but i think it's sort of you know sounds good on camera do you think that. conventions actually do anything you know. spend money our money our money how do you feel about that i don't like that. i do we get them to stop because you know romney's going to say leave town. the content is not so much the poor important as the outside how people perform that that's my first impression that people are choosing the heads not the times i think most of europeans are through obama and that's it and you need to watch any of the badness. really want to show us that i was really i mean congress or us is smarter than that was really awful i'm sure what better way irritates me is that these people aren't too bad she's really think we're stupid what are they covering up well that she's a very intelligent lady but i mean she sat there for an hour striking mitt romney saying go well you know americans smarter than that you know that way i mean
12:19 am
america needs someone to stand up and take charge i think let's face it. for themselves. but don't they when i mean you're not happy with the way things are going and so solution you've chosen is to check out doesn't that mean they they went. yes. yes so it seems like most people aren't even watching but if you do decide to tune in remember to watch it for what it is extremely calculated very expensive showmanship designed to influence the way you think whether or not that works to you. and some other world news in brief for you this hour thousands of okupe lies the main highway leading to bahrain's capital to demand freedom and a democratic government they demonstrate has held up banners and urging the release of jailed activists leaders being shia majority bahrain which is ruled by

although authorities say there's a chance it could then started deliberately. that huge of a crime is a holiday friendly beatrice is at stake danger at the bottom of the black sea. looks at what lies beneath. locals in the crimea admit that the tourist season this year might have been better but still we're talking hundreds of thousands of stories from all over the world who have come here for summer holidays but none of them are aware that swimming in the sea here might actually be dangerous this summer dozens of dead dolphins washed up on crimean shores ecologists say this is down to an infection and the actions of local poachers but others have connected these deaths to something more sinister divers recently discovered these barrels containing poisonous gas which were dumped in the sea by the retreating soviet army prior to the nazi invasion of one nine hundred forty one if poisonous substances are released into the sea water the consequences could be on imaginable he breathed
12:22 am
gas can theoretically kill everything within forty kilometers however the state ecological watchdog firmly denies this threat even exists. are divers and specialists from the interior ministry check the bottom of the sea or the board tori's tested water for poisonous substances and we found nothing. but this recently declassified documents suggest the opposite in two thousand and four crimea's authorities urged private colleges to check the coastline for threats that is when those containers were found former m.p. oleksandr kusa is probably the only politician in ukraine who is making comments on the issue because she says the authorities are deliberately keeping the public in the dark and you ship it with it now that's a mentality of local burger kretz who come in for a year or two now face and don't want these problems on their hands one goal so loud was warnings about a possible kargil catastrophe the local governor will cut his career shirt for job
12:23 am
as in the tourist season meanwhile more and more kids return this virus infections from crimea's summer holidays and this is definitely caused by travel project state of the sea water says lifting those containers from the bottom of the sea is impossible they will fall apart. that's why experts suggest a different solution. there's a technology which allows to see all these containers all for seven hundred years underground succumb for gases are constructed and put above the decaying barrels would solve the problem. it is hard to estimate how much this kind of operation would cost but as long as these barrels are a threat to every black sea country key of would most certainly get international aid should it appeal for help this year's tourist season has finished with no major incidents but some say that next year unless there's urgent political action the region may not be so lucky alexi russia of ski r.t.

and welcome this is on c everett trickle the headline from. the international atomic watchdog criticizes a role in the fold stepping up its nuclear activities after dozens of nations and the countries i'm bishan is at a summit in town the nation trying to its image as an international round. the paralympic games in london are overshadowed by the controversy around that major small such as accused of forcing people with disabilities back to work when they are physically unable to. run turkey says it will keep pushing for foreign protective safe zones inside syria to bring the directions from russia and china on iran is allies renamed the measure is needed to help syrian refugees but face
12:31 am
criticism for tense to the militarized it said. on the western agenda in syria next we'll talk to foreign affairs expert and german left wing politician. as one of the world's major economic and political powerhouses germany has a lot of influence which it can exert over global situations not to talk with me a little bit more about what germany is doing on the global stage right now i'm joined by. the foreign policy spokesperson for the left party here in germany thanks very much take into. syria is of course the major flash point in the world right now what's germany's view on situation the moment i would love to know what my position is on syria and i think i'm the only side i can take that those people are still peacefully demonstrating for the right for the democratic and human
12:32 am
rights. but the german government officially they don't take sides something sure of the. human rights. repression within the country sure enough but officially them not taking any other sides with the rebel to whatever informally and we see it from their involvement you know with a spy ship on the ground. and they invite three and put it to us for the time thereafter and train them here so officially they seem to take sides but it's unclear to me who they are now you mentioned the training of politicians for a syria without assad how were those people chosen i know i do your i mean this is by it's not the government think. think think that's close to the government we have here in germany so somebody selected people and i don't know on the basis of which criteria have no clue i mean we now have been invited for final discussion. i
12:33 am
mean how can you train some people and others not to mean we left party to link in germany we have contacts left politicians some people in syria i would know what i would pick but obviously these are different people. so if these people have been brought here to germany because germany sees them as being beneficial for the country in the future sure obviously i mean there's sort of an idea this government has which is not out in the public space i don't know about it but obviously they have an idea who they want to govern the country with or this is ethnically based religiously based or politically based i've know of no clue i can figure i can imagine i would thing that they would look for people who are not too close to the muslim brothers so to islam for way from from us that it's possible maybe not too critical about turkey but i don't know so if germany setting itself
12:34 am
up is the best place to to train politicians for the post. that's what they are doing i mean obviously they are inviting people here and they call it training for the situation there after. so yes they're training people for government positions and sure they want to have the relationship with the german government and eventually the muslim brotherhood there are another country where they have huge influences of course in egypt how do you view the situation in that country after their revolution and their transition into a new egypt was very difficult situation for a long time i was afraid that the army would take over. and now as of today it looks better so that they are losing some of the power of the military to the elected president this situation continuous hopefully to future for the situation within egypt what this means for the whole region i mean we have to clash at the
12:35 am
border to israel so really have no idea i think it's a very volatile right now for israel for libya syria. and especially then all the threats from israel against iran so it's too early to say that the revolution in egypt is one is over everything is peaceful and happy happy but it looks better today than four weeks ago. well to move to libya now what's the situation there in your opinion how does a country like libya going to rebuild itself one of the after months very few people talk about is that many of those who fought in libya now went to the area and are now fighting in mali for example were we have no sort of a civil war you know some really extreme muslim took over the north a part of mali many of those fought before that and worked with weapons everything were trained in libya so we see sort of the fallout of this war in libya in the neighboring countries is there a chance that the type of situation we see right now in libya it could be repeated
12:36 am
in syria as of today the situation for me in syria looks much worse than in libya because i mean the whole environment you know with the middle east conflict lebanon is one problem the other problem is that right now there seems to be so many other countries who have their own interests within syria supporting one side or the other turkey with a kurdish problem so they are supporting the movement just to prevent the kurds within syria to have their own you know autonomy then you have the gulf states supporting the rebels you have the cia on the ground you have german spy ship something i mean this seems to be the whole world have their interest now with one group or the other syria and that looks to me like a recent piece for a long civil war within syria now we talk about contagion when we're talking about the eurozone crisis is the risk of a wall contagion in the wider middle east.
