12:03 am
qaddafi and broady and islam is the government currently being a leader who basically all seize power to the americans as apologize for the attack in benghazi and pledged to hunt down the perpetrators but that doesn't change the fact that the revolution has sort of unleashed this kind of religious extremism the administration wants to present it as an act by a small fringe group but the attack on the embassy in cairo in egypt on the same day this tuesday showed that maybe it's not so small and not so fringe so what happened on tuesday both and egypt scores of people stormed the u.s. diplomatic facilities in protest to a movie that made fun of prophet mohammed the movie was produced by a real estate developer from california it depicts mohammad as a fraud a womanizer and a madman it possibly would have gone unnoticed if it hadn't been for the preacher from florida terry jones who promoted the film the same terry jones who burnt the koran last year and tried. mass riots in afghanistan muslim brotherhood in egypt
12:04 am
calls for demonstrations nationwide in response to this film now the afghan taliban are calling for revenge on american soldiers in response to the same film this is not the first time we see a wave of terror provoked either by individual acts of disrespect towards islam like this movie or by government policies on an individual level there was the koran burning by u.s. soldiers enough to stand at the beginning of the year that provoked a lot of violence and then there was this video which showed u.s. marines urinating on afghan corpses a certain u.s. government policies have also in the muslim world and provoked a violent backlash like torture at abu ghraib in iraq or a one ton a mole or a civilians killed in u.s. drone strikes in pakistan all that is being used by extremists to recruit more extremists the tragic assault in libya and the storming of the embassy in egypt showed that the changes sweeping the region changes that the u.s.

supported have hardly dispelled the rage against the united states in washington i'm going to. len's a german from the stop the war coalition in london believes the u.s. is now paying the price for its involvement in the arab world. we had thirty thousand people killed in libya last year there is no point in people trying to blame this on the now dead good at this to do with people resisting what the americans are doing and all of the americans realize this i think the question probably but there are clearly is a growth of radical islamism in in libya i don't regard this as an accident or something that has come from nowhere but i do understand that they represent a number of grievances which not just radical islamists feel but which millions of muslims feel around the world about the way that they are treated about and double standards to do with. waging war in their countries about the
12:06 am
backing of dictators in countries like egypt in june is there which the west has done for a long time and about property over killing you know we see daily deaths in afghanistan we see deaths in yemen caused by drone strikes all of these things are things which which add to the grievances of all the repeat bill in libya in afghanistan and elsewhere and we have more on this developing story online at r.t. dot com also on our facebook page you can join a discussion on america's role in the mile and that's spreading across the arab countries.

12:08 am
not more is the answer now is evidence of that your skeptics point to figures being released for the first time since one thousand nine hundred seventy britain is exporting more kids to the countries than it is to countries inside the e.u. and in recent questionnaire that was given to two thousand businesses conducted by the person chamber of commerce eighty five percent of those businesses didn't want further integration with the e.u. although only twelve percent questioned actually wanted to leave the all together now you're skeptics say that this points towards the fact that moving away from the u.s. having looser relations with the e.u. is certainly not going to damage the u.k. economy in fact far from it and that should be the way forward now here in the u.k. under legislation passed by the coalition were any substantial transfer of powers
12:09 am
to be made to the in that would trigger a referendum head well to talk more about all of this we're joined by lever through research fellow at the taxpayer's alliance thank you very much for joining us. braces comments all they going to save us from the euro crisis. watch we've got to see commission finally coming clean about what the long term agenda for the. what it's trying to do is trying to create all the powers that is. trying to. make. a disaster the disaster in order to achieve that that's not the answer the more you at this is never the answer actually. the european union if you want to work is going to be less you are not a new fact of the past a commission a person to. have been talking about doing less you are doing a better job grabbing more simply it's political ambition it's

part of why the european economic community researching the first place but it's not the answer to the present economic problem. another economic obstacle britain needs to look into is the growing inequality between big ball says. ploy the u.k.'s largest trade union countries the largest brother found the directors of the country's largest companies have built persian pots worth almost seven million dollars each poly boy reports from london. politicians have long been saying that it's a time of belt tightening and budget cuts almost every sector of british society is suffering from schools and hospitals to pensioners and people with disabilities but there's one sector that seems immune from all this and that's the fat cats and company directors while everyone else is getting poorer they're getting richer the country's main trade union group the team you see has released

in the face of an unprecedented pensioner poverty crisis. coming up on our t.v. the prime minister of speaks on the us of a divisive case rather of a russian punk band. means remove video of seize two years behind bars as too harsh a punishment for the pussy riot girls staged a punk prayer in russia's main cathedral. voters in the netherlands have elected to continue on a pro european path broadly sticking to a german led way out of the financial crisis the conservatives claimed victory but may have to form a coalition with labor which holds similar economic views despite rejecting parties calling for an exit from the euro zone a rethink of some austerity measures looks inevitable as tests are sillier reports . the european crisis has affected the campaign period it really brought out a lot of voter sentiments that were unexpected what it comes to the dutch dutch
12:13 am
people who are generally very pro european now we've seen the past weeks before the final week of campaigning the socialists have made a huge jump at some point even the leading. front of the liberals and the labor party however having said that a lot of observers do the fact that the dutch again are very practical people and have traditionally been centrist voters and they did vote. labor and the liberal party the prime minister. the fact that the campaign has brought out a lot of voter sentiment that didn't exist before having centrist government right now it does not mean that those questions on whether they should keep helping the greeks for example or whether it should continue the way it has been. following the german lead for europe those questions will go away even if they still have the government right now so i think what will happen here is the most logical is that the labor and liberal which is a top two biggest parties here will my former coalition and it's only
12:14 am
a practical however the question is there are differences in their approach to europe should they give more money to greece or should they follow the three percent of. these points that will definitely have disagreements and stability there is questionable and therefore. a coalition government formed quite quickly but whether it will last longer than the previous government well that is still an open question. and wave of anger has swept dystonia after a magazine there published a prankish diet pill advertisement that used images of a misuse of prisoners at a nazi concentration camp the country is often criticized for harboring nazi ideals and for showing a reluctance to do anything about it. has this report. brown which went terribly wrong in a story a newspaper asked to express posted a picture of prisoners of a nazi death involved with a text one two three dr mengele spills will do wonders for you there were no fat
12:15 am
men in book involve this reference to a man who was responsible for more than forty thousand deaths in nine hundred forty s. not to death camps certainly has caused uproar both in the stone here and abroad with the local jewish community and simon wiesenthal center both accusing the newspaper office of making a joke out of a huge tragedy and a massive loss of human lives the newspaper itself tried to justify this picture by saying that this was simply a joke in response to an earlier incident when a gas heating company in a studio posted a picture of the entrance to another nazi death camp with an advertisement of the heating system saying that their heating systems were reliable and very efficient many experts and political analysts have been very critical of the fact that such things happen in a more than democratic state
12:16 am
a member of the european union and this prank by the newspaper and the advertisement by the a gas company forced the country's foreign minister to bring his apologies for those incidents he said that he felt very ashamed to be stony and if his country's newspapers allow themselves such jokes with the use of the human tragedy the newspaper and the gas company certainly taking down. these pictures from their websites but have not yet apologized and even despite the fact that the foreign minister of the stone yet has brought his apologies still many have been questioning how sincere those apologies were because a stone has a record of dealing with the events of the last particularly with nazis and in this very own sinister way several of the veterans who were fighting alongside the nazi troops in the 1940's in the so-called baltic legion were made a national heroes in the story off to the collapse of the soviet union so this
12:17 am
latest incident certainly adds more fuel to the fire in this own growing story of how the post soviet baltic states have been dealing with naziism and have been dealing with the perception of the past this incident this latest incident also caused indignation from the russian foreign ministry which said that this again shows how some power in the story and some of the ordinary population are dealing with things which were which are considered to be tragic and which are considered to be inhumane by the most of the morning world by most of the more new europe. remember you can always had to a web site r.t. dot com for the latest news and as well as comment and analysis here's a taste of what's already lined up for you there. one all to rule them all they want house leaks a cyber security draft order that could allow the u.s. president to tighten the noose of control over the internet. plus prying into
