the government earlier this month the rebels were handed dozens of lethal u.s. made anti air missile launchers the delivery to have been carried out by the rebels as western. turkey drew strong condemnation the editor of the independent website syria trabi and says the rebels those 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 their support when the international community sees they're able slaughtering people civilian people in the street and throwing them from the roof 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

there appears to be a wolf in sheep's clothing among those who finance london's paralympics activists are angry that a firm accused of wrecking the lives of thousands of disabled people is trying to burnish its image boss sponsoring the games artist laura smith reports on what exactly has caused the outrage the paralympics are the ultimate display of troy 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 toss 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 by are making money out of other people's space required actually the old many of them sponsoring the paralympics is something that's really lost on them and he seems to divide the blame to the serving disabled and the un to say 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 the work capability assessment especially is going through the work it's possible i would say this was an. ethically so explosive watch exposure what more occupational health doctor if say if you took a great knowledge from others because i couldn't find any why i took the roof over my head. i couldn't show you any y.i.t. he's not a load of pressure groups a thirty two people die a week on. to being found fit to work by at offices disabled people and other

activists have traveled here from all over the country to test against at all says sponsorship of the arab league makes their united in the admiration the paralympics themselves but say an organization and they feel that she ordinary disabled people should play no part in this event. 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 made decisions on people's benefit entitle him and or poor who continue to make sure that the service we provide is as highly professional and compassion and is it can be but disability activists say that's just passing the buck and that his sponsorship of the games gives it a whitewash it doesn't deserve they're trying to clean up barry made by trying to associate themselves hates both ends you know this is true disability say i don't

keep those activities that's really given the other side about how how paul floats how they kill people like ultimate team g.b. athletes appeared to highlight the branding on the paralympic accreditation juror in the opening ceremony but activists say that's not enough when the toss in 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. . keep it here with our team because still have for you in the program the new us and israel are left embarrassed that's 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 emissions don't in the waters seventy years ago are still threatening

with mike's cancer a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune into khan's report. 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 tough it amounts to a resoundingly slap in the face for the u.s. and israel who've been trying to downplay the role for gathering the latest report issued during a summit claimed iran's doubled its nuclear capacity by installing new raney in richmond centrifuges tough on the rejected the 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 it is now accepted international law so i think that's the first one the second one of course is the geo political 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 signed mohammad

marandi a 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 inside of iran being isolated the united states has become isolated scented opposed senior figures going to tehran and many major world leaders have come to the country in addition the president of egypt and the run which is a political earthquake the iranians are producing uranium. enriched uranium at twenty percent for facilities in iran we should 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 iranian cancer patients hostage the irony here is that the iranians at the beginning had no intention whatsoever to produce it you aenima twenty percent and then produce nuclear fuel but the americans and the europeans by taking iranian citizens and people hostage for sea iranians to take that 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 that 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 missile attacks and as our cheese balls layer 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 father's smiling face on very serious and grim statistics the bush take about what people should do in a state of emergency it says that there is a need for a family to take the family should get together and talk about what to do if this country is in a state of crisis at the same time if it's at anywhere between fifty fifty and three minutes is the time frame that israelis will have from the moment fire and sound until there is a state of emergency there and also there are just people to go and check that they bomb shelters up to scratch how the pressure doesn't make any mention of any kind of you want to rant but certainly it is giving some kind of urgency and there have been those who suggested that it is really the latest step by israeli politicians in preparation for human and war and certainly for that kind of recruiting coming out of these maybe 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 it's raining strike on the run parallel to the brochure there is an advert that you might think on his radio television and it shows a 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 that 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 and for the missile stock to fall right and you have those who were on the situation the israelis so many have been putting up there with it 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 happen soon but the official line if you from the government in terms of. this procedure and when we both go on was that it is

nothing more than just the general public awareness people need to know what to do even if they know. what is the i'll let. you know with our team still to come this hour innocence or impunity. human 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 compromise the resort's long established reputation party's alexander ship ski 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 might 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 archives 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 a breed 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 caution 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 law kratz who come in for a year or two now office and don't want this problems on their hands meanwhile more and more kids who turned his virus infections from crimea's some higher death and this is definitely caused by terrible project state of the sea water cooler says lifting those containers from the bottom of the sea is impossible they will fall apart that's why experts suggest a different solution if. 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. alexy rush of ski odyssey reporting from crimea ukraine. made two rotors and the us presidential riots are desperately trying to outwit and outmaneuver one another to win the hearts and minds of americans. and you watching it all absolutely none of it why not i hate the republicans you know

then but this has been only you know this is all the george w. bush administration's activities been carried on by the obama administration actions as you know the lead prosecutor on this and done and was appointed by me casey who was. under george w. bush who was one of the new york times who. was very put anterior and islamic in the number of respects so we're seeing the same kind of thing going on and it was those who ordered and those who covered it up those who ordered the cover up day should be in court we should be investigating them all right it's time now for a look at some other stories from around the world a double suicide bombing near a military base in central afghanistan has claimed at least thirteen lives including nine civilians more than fifty others were also wounded

a bomber on foot was followed by a truck driven by another attacker his 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 a democratic government the demonstrators how the banners and flags urging the release of jailed activists leaders the shia majority of state which is ruled by western backed sunni dynasty has been hit by an arrest and 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 head by hurricane isaac stealing m r. he's planning his trip there on monday romney had earlier slammed his rival for his

handling of foreign affairs of vala staff criticize romney paying little attention to troops in afghanistan but how much do americans really care for free election exchanges teams resident isn't new york to find out. we were. in the us republicans and democrats are holding their national conventions and they hear 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 why not because i don't like either one of those guys so you don't watch and you don't vote i meant that you know i do but i don't like voting for the worst who's who's not the worst of the two. but do you need to watch the conventions to be informed know it's all crap have you been watching you know absolutely none of it why now but i hate the republicans are you going to watch the

democratic convention probably not why not i don't need to do you think there is actual information being said sad at the conventions or is it just kind of b.s. but i think it's sort of you know sounds good on camera do you think that. conventions actually do anything. spend money our money our money how do you feel about that i don't like that. how 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 the my first impression that people are choosing the heads not the i think most of europeans are through obama. and you don't need to watch any of the bad 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 what better way irritates me is that these people aren't too bad she really think we're stupid

what are they covering up well she's a very intelligent lady but i mean 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 seems like most people aren't even watching but if you do decide to tune in and 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 is up to you. so with our team i'll be back to recap our main stories short.
