independent website syria tribunals says the rebels tactics are beyond the pale. the rebels saying that they are attacking civilian airports now is just one more step in revealing that actual terrorist nature because it's against every law in the world to attack civilian airports for whatsoever reasons i'm actually surprised they are still enjoying this support when the international community sees they're able slaughtering people civilian people in the street and throwing them from their office and still support them this gives the wrong message to the rebels that whatever they do they will still enjoy this twisted support at the moment the free syrian army is not heavily armed well enough to win any battle against the syrian army of the syrian official army just like what has been happening in the past months but it is definitely heavily armed enough to harm civilians and to endangered the lives of many syrian people. syrian rebels as new threat to target

triumph over adversity a showcase for people who've overcome their disabilities and achieved something amazing but hanging over this event is a shadow cast by may just sponsor at office it's the firm the government's paying to assess disabled people's ability to work but it's blamed for humiliating the vulnerable and forcing people off benefits as part of the country's austerity drive but are making money out of other people's misery quite literally the are many of them sponsoring the paralympic sees something is really lost on them and he seems to divide people into the surfing to save and the un saving tony bradstock went through an at orsa c'est mint 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 at work i feel if

your session intercession is going for the world it's possible i would say this was it. because they said the choice of watch it's because you want more occupational health dr richard archer took a break noise from all this because i couldn't find any wire to cook with a roof over my head. i couldn't shoot any y.i.t. he's not alone pressure groups a thirty two people died a week after being found to work by at us disabled people and other activists have travelled here from all over the country to recessed against actresses sponsorship of the arab league makes their you know you see it in that admiration the paralympics themselves but say an organization and they feel was actually 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 decision some 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's 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 associate themselves with sports and you know this is true disability say i don't keep those activities that's really given the other side but i know how paul floats they kill people but also the team g.b. athletes appeared to highlight the branding on their paralympic accreditation juror in the opening ceremony but activists say that's not enough when at last in the government expect to cause a round hole for a million people to lose their independent living benefits in the next four years

laura smith. so have you on the program the u.s. and israel are berets as more than one hundred nations support iran's atomic program as experts believe the country needs it as a repellant against international military aggression. also echoes of war in the black sea munitions dumped in the water seventy years ago are still threatening taurus hotspots. wealthy british style. market why not. come to. find out what's really happening to the global economy

with my stronger no holds barred. look at the global financial headlines tune in to cause a report on our. brighter future. from finance to pressure these. stunts on t.v. don't come. here with our team and more than a hundred nations have unanimously supported iran's nuclear program as long as it's used for peaceful purposes after the nonaligned movement wrapped up and talk around it amounts to a resoundingly slap in the face for the u.s. and israel have been trying to downplay the role of the gathering the latest report

issued during the summit claimed iran's doubled its nuclear capacity by installing new year reign him in richmond centrifuges to a problem that rejected that document saying it was all politically motivated geo political analyst eric draitser thinks the i.a.e.a. has never been an impartial body. the iranians do it partially for self-preservation they also do it for propaganda purposes and to lend themselves clout on the world stage they have the inherent right according to the nuclear nonproliferation treaty that they have the right to have a nuclear program so long as it's for peaceful purposes as is now accepted international law so i think that's the first one the second one of course is the geopolitical reality that they look around them you look at the map and they see that they are surrounded literally on all sides by the united states or various allies of the united states and the principle is quite clear that the united states will invade nations that do not have the threat of nuclear weapons and the united.

states does not invade the nations that do have that threat the i.a.e.a. in many ways is part of what the leader in iran called the overt dictatorship of the united nations that is to say that the i.a.e.a. is always led by us produced think tank individuals like l. barra die or his predecessors who will inevitably execute the agenda of the western powers regardless of whether that contravenes international law say mohammad marandi and professor at the university of tampa ron says iran would have never launched a nuclear program but for international pressure. the iranians are saying that this report came at a sensitive time to sort of distract attention away from this iranian success the nonaligned movement. conference in tehran has been highly successful in iran being isolated the united states has become isolated since it opposed senior

figures going to tehran and many major world leaders have come to the country in addition the president of egypt into iran which is a political earthquake the iranians are producing uranium. enriched uranium at twenty percent for facilities in tehran which then produce medical isotopes the fact that the united states and the europeans tried to prevent iran from obtaining that fuel in the past that meant that they were taking the running cancer patients hostage the irony here is that the iranians at the beginning had no intention whatsoever to produce twenty percent and then produce nuclear fuel but the americans and the europeans by taking. citizens and people hostage forced the iranians to take that step the politicians senior politicians really know that an attack on iran would be devastating for the united states and not only

for its economy but for its global position and its credibility. now washington seems reluctant to endorse a strike on iran israel is getting all geared up for it people in tel aviv have been practicing emergency drills which simulate misawa tuck's and us are to falsely reports war preparations have also moved to the ideological arena. this fifteen page emergency brochure is being distributed by the israeli army across the country and it puts a rather smiling face on a very serious and grim statistic the bush take about what people should do in a state of emergency it is that there is a need for a plan we told the families to get together and talk about what to do if this country is in a state of crisis at the same time if that anywhere between fifty and three minutes is the time frame that israelis will have from the moment fire when found until there is a state of emergency here and also going to people to go and check that they bomb

shelters up to scratch now the pressure doesn't make any mention of any kind of meat on the ranch but certainly it is giving some kind of urgency and there have been those who've suggested that it is really the day to day by israeli politicians in preparation for human and war and certainly for that kind of rhetoric coming out of the israeli political elite some officials have said that we're looking at a civilian conference some five hundred people in any kind of war that would follow and israeli strike on the run parallel to the brochure there is an advert that you're writing on israeli television and it shows the way in general we sit with the israeli army officers and they're trying to convince him to give their support in an israeli attack on an enemy state presumably the ranch the general at that stage take a bite of the chocolate hazelnut sitting in front of him and he said something along the lines of let's go nuts which the israelis misinterpret to mean that he has given them the green light for this operation for the missile stock to fall cry

and you have those. that's the way. the israelis that we have been putting up there rick and it does seem as if there is something on the go we have heard some israeli politicians on record saying that a strike on iran is going to mean that the official line from the government in terms of this procedure and when we spoke to the only was that it is nothing more than just a general public awareness campaign that people need to know what to do in a state of emergency what is the i'll be. your authority and still to come this hour innocence or impunity. rights activists lash out at washington's drive to put an end to the probe into the cia's interrogation tactics they say torture is being swept under the carpet. the beaches of ukraine's crimea draw thousands of tourists every summer however

a recent underwater discovery may call promise the resort's long established reputation. find out how far the authorities will go to keep inconvenient facts from surfacing. locals in the crimea admit that the tourist season this year may 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 may actually be dangerous this summer dozens of dead dolphins washed up on crimean shores a colleges 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 archive suggest one thousand two hundred containers are scattered around the crimean coast we have find and identifiable creations of around five hundred in

twenty ten the integrity warranty of these bottles officially expired meaning that starting from twenty eleven these containers can start falling apart. if poisonous substances are released into the sea water the consequences could be unimaginable 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 crucial 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 that cement tally carets who come in for a year or two now face and don't land is problems on their hands meanwhile more and more kids who turn virus infections from crimea's some a higher death and this is definitely caused by terrible project state of the sea water cools and he 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 this 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 see reporting from crimea ukraine the two runners in the u.s. presidential race are desperately trying to outwit and outmaneuver one another to win the hearts and minds of americans. if you are watching it all absolutely none of it why not why i hate the republicans you know watch the democratic convention probably not why not i don't need to but do voters even care that's what are t.'s resident who's roaming the streets of new york amid the pre-election fever.

the u.s. justice department has ended a long running probe into the cia's brutal treatment of detainees without filing

any charges in the last remaining cases involving the killings of two terror suspects who were tortured to death in the agency's facilities in iraq and afghanistan the investigators say they didn't have enough evidence but some experts believe might have been destroyed on purpose. the cia destroyed some of the tepes that in itself is a criminal action that that itself shouldn't been pursued. would be pursued something but this has been no you know this is the george w. bush administration's activities being carried on by the obama administration actions as one of the lead prosecutor on this and done and was appointed by me casey who was appointed under george w. bush who was one of the neo cons who. was was very potent and. islamic in the number of respects so we're seeing the same kind of thing going on

under those who ordered and those who covered up those who ordered the coverup they should be in court we should be investigating them. now it's time for a look at some other stories from around the world a double suicide bombing near a military base in central afghanistan as claimed at least thirteen lives including nine civilians more than fifty others were wounded a palm are all full it was followed by a truck driven by another attacker whose device exploded shortly afterwards the taliban have already claimed responsibility for the blasts. thousands of protesters have occupied the main highway leading to bomb france capital to demand greater freedoms and credit government demonstrators held up banners and floods urging the release of jailed activists leaders the shia majority state which is ruled by a western backed sunni dynasty has been hit my own restaurant protests for over

a year. the u.s. presidential race is heating up with fresh maneuvering two months before the election republican candidate mitt romney has paid a sudden visit to the gulf coast areas hit by hurricane isaac stealing a march on barack obama he's planning his trip there on monday romney had earlier slammed his rival for his handling of foreign affairs while obama's staff criticize romney for paying little attention to troops in afghanistan but how much do americans really care for pre-election exchanges well we did watch our tease the resident in new york to find out more money growing up in michigan that might have seen the news. in the u.s. republicans and democrats are holding their national conventions and here the media and politicians talk about them but the most important things going on right now so

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 i think most of europeans are through obama and that's it and you need to watch any of the bad now if you really want to show us that i was really i mean congress or us is smarter than that that was really awful i'm sure that's what irritates me is that these people aren't too bad she really think we're stupid what are they covering up well that she's a very intelligent lady but i mean she's she sat there for an hour striking mitt romney so you go well you know americans smarter than that you know that way i mean america needs someone to stand up and take charge i think elite let's face it ok people that are out for themselves that's it i give up on it but don't they win i mean you're not happy with the way things are going and so the solution you've chosen is to check out doesn't that mean they they went. yes. yes so it
