tribune 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 their 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 the syrian army just like what has been happening in the past months but it is definitely have really aren't enough to hunt civilians and to endanger the lives of many syrian people any foreign military intervention in syria would spell total disaster for the peace effort in a country that is according to u.n. peace envoy to syria lakhdar brahimi who made the statement just

a day after taking the baton from his predecessor kofi annan and as our team the reports it's a position echoed by moscow. russian foreign minister officials have already commented on this latest development the deputy foreign minister of. france like this is a direct result of the irresponsible policies to arm syrian rebels in the meantime his boss russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov was talking to you. thank you once again reiterating that if international players are really interested in trying to put an end to bloodshed they should apply pressure on both sides of this conflict. those demanding the capitulation of just the government forces in syria while at the same song urging you continue fighting this position is based on the feeling that these forces are ready to pay an extra price which will be a huge number of human lives. he also said. when it comes to goals

international goals in syria russia has absolutely no disagreement with the west russia also wants to see syria free democratic stable state where the main disagreement lies on the means of which goal and whether it could be done through violence and on with this international intervention or whether it could be done through diplomatic efforts and internal syrian dialogue. reporting for us there now of the recent push at the u.n. security council for human chord or in syria which could lead to military intervention has sparked protests in germany in the country's financial capital frankfurt thousand demonstrators gathered demanding an end to foreign interference in the syrian conflict artie's peter oliver reports. well here in the square in front of the opera house a crowd of around a thousand people have gathered to demonstrate against foreign military

stream peter right now it's not only syrian ex-pats who are demanding an end to interference in their homeland but also the people of neighboring states as well go to his twitter feed for the latest developments. choice of sponsors for the london paralympic games is being called into question and it has emerged that the u.k. government employs one of them to assess disabled people's right to benefits the french company is accused of wrecking the lives of thousands of disabled people by unfairly forcing them off welfare. laura smith reports many think the firm is trying to polish its image by attaching itself to the london games. the paralympics are the ultimate display of troy adversity

a showcase for people who've overcome their disabilities and achieve 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 they are making money out of other people's misery quite literally the old many of them sponsoring the paralympics is i think it's really lost on them and he seems to divide people into the deserving to save and the un to 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 that. is going to work and. it's a bit like because we sit and watch. the exposure of

what more occupational health dr richard she took a break from all this because i couldn't find any why i took the route. any y.i.t. he's not a load of pressure groups a thirty two people died a week after being found face to work by at elves disabled people and other activists have travelled here from all over the country very test against sponsorship of the paralympics they you know they see it in their admiration for the paralympic themselves but say an organization and they feel the key ordinary disabled people should play no part in this event. in a statement the company defends its practices and policies responsibility back to the government department for work and pensions which actually makes the final decision. we do not need decisions on people's benefit in title meant or on welfare

policy but we will continue to make sure that the service we provide is as highly professional and compassionate is it can be. but disability activists say that's just passing the buck and that is sponsorship of the games it's a whitewash. they're trying to clean up very major by trying to associate themselves with its book and you know this is so disability it's people's activity that's really given the other side about how how tall floats how they kill people like ultimate team g.b. athletes are paid to highlight the branding on the paralympic accreditation during the opening ceremony but activists say that's not enough when at all said the government expect to cause a round hole for a million people to lose their independent living benefits in the next four years. and still ahead for you in the program the u.s.

and israel are left more than under that nature and support iran's atomic program as experts believe the country needs it as a repellant against international military aggression. and. also echoes of the war in the black sea nations dumped in the water seventy years ago are still. tens of thousands of protesters have occupied the main highway leading to bahrain's capital manama to greater freedoms and a democratic government the demonstrators held up banners and flags are joined the release of the jailed dissidents including human rights activist. the shia majority state which is ruled by a western backed sunni dynasty has been hit by an arrest and protests for over eighteen months now the u.s. has been supporting bahrain's regime with its fifth fleet based in the country calling cavell a former political studies professor at the university of bahrain believes it's getting difficult for washington to maintain its influence in the country. the

united states wants to return a new kind of demonic control not only were bahrain but over the. persian gulf monarchies in the entire middle east in order to keep that crude oil flowing however they realize there was increasing democratic opposition in all these countries that they can no longer rely on the autocratic dictators to maintain control and this is particularly true in bahrain where the population three quarters of the population are out on the streets on a regular basis telling their government to leave saying we are no longer in support of monarchy we don't respect you and we don't fear you anymore so what the u.s. is doing with president barack obama is to replace these autocratic despot. with the north african regime egypt mubarak was removed in egypt we had ben ali go

we had to go. the regime in yemen go and now if iraq obama is reelected and november sweeps of this year then he will complete is said to him on a transition leads regime. on more than one hundred nations have unanimously supported iran's nuclear program as long as it's used for peaceful purposes after the nonaligned movement wrapped up in tehran and amounts to a resulting slap in the face for the u.s. and israel who have been trying to downplay the role of the gathering the latest i.a.e.a. report issued during the summit claimed iran has doubled its nuclear capacity by installing new iranian enrichment centrifuges tehran 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 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. 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 cited mohammad

marandi a professor at the university of tehran says iran would never have 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 instead 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 came to iran which is a political earthquake the iranians are producing uranium. enriched uranium at twenty percent for facilities in tehran which are then produce medical isotopes the fact that the united states and the europeans tried to prevent iran from obtaining this fuel in the past met that meant that they were taking iran in

cancer patients hostage the irony here is that the iranians at the beginning had no intention whatsoever to produce a name a twenty percent and then produce nuclear fuel but americans and the europeans by taking iranian citizens and people hostage for sea 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 the 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 archie's policy or reports war preparations have also moved to the ideological arena. this person page emergency brochure is being distributed by the israeli army across the country and it puts around the mining page on very serious and grim statistics

the brush it takes about what people should do in a state of emergency it says that there is a need for family told 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 care and also urging people to go and check that they bomb shelters up to scratch how 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 suggested that it is really the day to day by israeli politicians in preparation for human floor 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 strikes on the run parallel to the brochure there is an average that is

pricing 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 out of the chocolate hazelnut that sitting in front of him and he says 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 missiles not to fall fly and you have those who are on the situation the israelis so we have been putting up with a red tape 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 to me but the official line to be from the government in terms of. this is fresh air and when we go on like that it is nothing more than just the general public awareness people need to know what to do in

a state. where they are. of course here with our team now let's take a look at some other stories making headlines around the world a double suicide bombing near a military base in central afghanistan has killed at least thirteen people including nine civilians more than seventy others were wounded a bomber on foot was followed by a truck driven by another attacker whose device exploded shortly afterwards the taleban have already claimed responsibility for the blast. in belgium protests against the early release of the accomplice and ex-wife of a notorious child killer pedophile have ended in scuffles with police the demonstration took place outside a convent where michel martin has been sent after serving just over half her jail sentence the woman was sentenced to thirty years in prison for letting two girls starve to death in a cellar helping her husband mark two true sexual abuses on the other girl. seven muslims have been shot dead in the city of pakistan police say gunmen on

motorcycles forced the group off a bus and shot five of them two survivors tried to run away but were chased down and killed the attack is the latest in a wave of sectarian violence in pakistan as shia groups blame the government for failing to halt the bloodshed. on the beaches of ukraine. thousands of tourists every summer however a recent underwater discovery made compromise the resort's long established reputation. finds out how far the authorities will go to keep inconvenient facts from surfacing. 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. archives suggest one thousand two hundred containers are scattered around the crimean coast we have find and identifiable creations of the rhino five hundred twenty ten the integrity warranty of these bottles eventually expired meaning that starting from twenty eleven these containers to 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 boards or is tested water from more than a 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 couzin 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 usually when that number that cement tally kratz has come in for a year or two now and don't want these problems in their hands meanwhile more and more kids through countless virus infections from crimea to summer holidays and this is the. if i travel on a logic state of the sea one who says lifting those containers from the bottom of the sea is impossible they will fall apart that's why experts suggest a different solution. does 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 those 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 ski r.t. reporting from crimea ukraine. moscow has been celebrating city day marking the anniversary of its eight hundred sixty fifth year and on our website you can see some of the festivities. and nothing more appropriate than before

afghanistan but how much do americans really care for pre-election exchanges artie's resident is in new york to find out. and the u.s. republicans and democrats are holding their national conventions and the media and politicians talk about them the most important things going on right now so who is watching and what have they seen this week. let's talk about that have you been wanting 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 worst 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 now 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 sad sad at the conventions or a say just kind of b.s. but i think it's sort of you know sounds good on camera do you think that these conventions actually do anything. 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 bad never. 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's 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 say 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 a little let's face it ok people that are out for themselves that's it i give up on it but don't they when 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 remember to watch it for what it is extremely calculated very. designed to influence the way you think whether or not that works to you. i'll be back with a recap of our top stories in just a few moments you're watching art.
