hello and welcome to our team. it is not o'clock here in moscow while riot police fired tear gas at hundreds of demonstrators in colorado during a second night of violent protest outside the u.s. embassy in the egyptian capital crowds threw molotov cocktails at the compound angered by a controversial american film and salting. the movie has also triggered more violence across the arab world on tuesday america's ambassador to libya was killed on an armed mall botak the u.s. consulate in the city have been called washington house condemning the murder of christopher stevens and three other officials president obama has vowed to hunt down those responsible and has sent to war ships and then we move. into new show police used tear gas and rubber bullets. disperse crowds near the u.s.
1:02 am
embassy in the capital. takes up the story. the greys and the horrendous attack on the u.s. consulate in benghazi showed just how much the ground in the region has shifted for washington in an apparent attempt to pour some water on the fire the obama administration said they thought it was a small and fringe group that carried out the attack that in no way do they blame the people of libya or the government of libya but secretary of state couldn't hold back the sense of frustration which many americans share right now when she said this how could this have. how could this happen in a country we helped liberate in a city we helped save from destruction ambassador chris stevens who died in the storming of the consulate in benghazi he played an active role in bringing down colonel qadhafi the revolution has effectively put an end to the secular rule of qaddafi and broady and islam is the government that currently be a leader who basically also use power to the americans as apologize for the attack
1:03 am
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 gypped 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 triggered mass riots in afghanistan the muslim brotherhood in egypt calls for demonstrations nationwide. response to this film now the afghan
1:04 am
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 us soldiers enough gun 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 certain u.s. government policies have also enraged the muslim world and provoked a violent backlash like torture at abu ghraib in iraq or of guantanamo 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
1:05 am
i'm going to. lindsey 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 little trying to blame this on the now dead colonel gadhafi this used to do with people resisting what the americans are doing and the americans realize this i think the measure probably by the clearly is a growth or frantically islam as a main in libya i don't regard this as an accident or something that has come from nowhere i do understand that they represent a number of grievances which not just radical islamists feel but which millions of muslims trail around the world about the way that they are treated about and double standards to do with the. waging war in their countries about the backing of dictators in countries like egypt in june is there which the west has
1:06 am
done for a long time and about the quality over killing always easy 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 repeat all in libya in afghanistan and elsewhere . the u.n. security council and russia have condemned the killing of the u.s. ambassador in libya russia's foreign ministry has said the attack on the diplomatic mission was a terrorist attack and any acts of terror cannot be justified let's get more on the story from r.t.c. reno go to reno so top russian officials have yet to comment what can we expect. well of course russian officials condemned the attacks in benghazi and in cairo obviously but the habs have been issuing sort of some sort of warnings before him even long before these attacks have happened for example the recent exclusive interview to r.t.
1:07 am
russian president vladimir putin has mentioned that if you die that states who seems to be now making the same mistakes which already have been made by the u.s.s.r. in the past. was going to if you knew when someone is biased toward a tween and they think they see is optimal. do. they will do that or something more you crook and hardly ever think of your constituents does that was the killer theory was that we're not going to start destroying the soviet union in ways you didn't going to hundred seventy nor would it but do not towing but i wasn't probably the support of the river when you know it's basically gave rise to our car that we later when i'm in florida in the united states so today we're going to choose from some other organizations with us really radically reduced to accomplish their goals in syria. and of course the russian foreign minister has also condemned the attacks however our foreign minister sergei lavrov did say that at times the united states seems to be taking all of the police are decided they do what they do
1:08 am
say that some terror that they do acknowledge the fact that some terrorist attacks have been made and they condemned them when it is appropriate or when it is comfortable for them for example however when such terrorist attacks happen in syria the united states seems to be brushing them off as yet and not there. attempts on behalf of the rebel fighters to dissolve to get rid of all of the regime so again the russian foreign minister while condemning their attacks they do say that at times the nature of the united states approach to matters in the middle east leaves them much more to be desired car with those days from moscow thank you archie. and we do have more on this developing story online at our dot com also let us know what you think about the violence that's spreading across arab countries you can join the discussion on our facebook page.

coming together and. nation states as a way forward for european nations commission president jose manuel barroso outlined his plans of a clutch of the crisis the view however is not shared by all across the region with critics in the u.k. pointing out europe isn't even london's biggest trade partner anymore artists are reports. federation states and deep earth political integration that's what the president of the european commission money has called for to pull member states out of the euro crisis nightmare well the cool for the e.u. member states to hand more power to europe has really ruffled some feathers here at
1:10 am
westminster and has caused anger amongst us skeptics who say that less europe and not more is the answer now is evidence of that your skeptics point to figures that have been released show that 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 the recent questionnaire that was given to two thousand businesses conducted by the person chamber of commerce say that eighty five percent of these businesses didn't want further integration with the e.u. although only twelve percent questioned actually wanted to leave the all together now you are skeptics say that this point. moving away from the u.s. having least the 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
1:11 am
to be made to the even that would trigger a referendum head well to talk more about all of this we're joined by. research fellow at the taxpayers' 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. for what it's trying to do is trying to create all the powers that it's long been trying to. make. most of a disaster the disaster in order to achieve that that's not the more you at this is never the answer actually. the european union if you want to work is going to be less you're not a new fact in the past to commission a person to which we have been talking about doing less you are doing it better so
1:12 am
grabbing more is simply it's political ambition it's part of why the european economic community research the first place but it's not the answer to the present economic. and other economic obstacle britain needs to look into is the growing inequality between big bosses and rank and file employees the u.k.'s largest trade union directors of the country's largest companies have built pension pots worth almost seven million dollars each party's polly boyko 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 t.v.

you see has released a report that exposes the gulf between the pensions of top company executives and ordinary workers the top directors a foot c one hundred companies receive average pensions of four hundred thousand dollars per year but that's just the average the chief executive of the gas company the bici group for example sir frank chapman has a pension savings of a staggering thirty million dollars and this is regardless of how successful the directors company is or the state of the economy in most star for save a fraction of directors the pensions two thirds of private sector employees don't even participate. in company pension schemes while those that do will ultimately receive an average yearly pension of just fifteen thousand dollars now if companies stop chipping away at the pensions of the majority of while because in order to avoid that direct this so-called solid pensions experts warn that person could be

1:15 am
really brought out a lot of voter sentiments that were unexpected when it comes to the dutch dutch people who are generally very pro european though we've seen in the past weeks before the final week of campaigning that the socialists have made a huge jump at some point even the leading. front of the liberals and of 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 that center left and center right parties the labor and the liberal party the prime minister margaret to having said that though the fact that the campaign has brought out a lot of voter sentiment that didn't exist before having centrist government right now 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 in a draconian fashion following the german lead the plan for europe those questions will not go away given even if they still have
1:16 am
a centrist 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 in this sense it's only 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 a. drastic draconian fashion these points that will definitely have disagreements and stability there is questionable and therefore the dutch may find it a coalition government formed quite quickly but whether it will last longer than the previous government well that is still an open question. and remember you can always head to our website r.t. dot com for the latest news as well as for comments and analysis here's a taste of what's already lined up for you there. one dollar to rule them all the white house leaks a sunburst security trafford order that could allow the u.s. president to tighten the noose of control over the internet. plus prying into

the local jewish community and simon wiesenthal center both accusing the newspaper off 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 stoney a posted a picture off at 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 a member of the european union and this prank by the newspaper and the advertisement by the gas company forced the country's foreign minister to bring his apologies for those incidents he said that he felt very ashamed to be
1:19 am
a stony and if his country's newspapers allow themselves such jokes with the use of the human tragedy the newspaper and the gas company have certainly taken down these pictures from their websites but have not yet apologized and even despite the fact that the foreign minister 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 past 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 national heroes in the story off to the collapse of the soviet union so this latest incident certainly adds more fuel to the fire in this ongoing story of how the baltic states have been dealing with the nazis and have been dealing with the perception of that this incident this latest incident also caused indignation from the russian foreign

that full interview is coming your way in just over an hour right here on our. precious prime minister and to me. that the sentences given to punk band pussy riot were too harsh saying keeping them behind bars any longer it's unnecessary three women from the group were jailed last month for two years after staging a so-called pulp prayer in the country's main cathedral. reports. meeting we did it was being quite frank when he said that what you write did makes him sick and so do the hysteria and noise around this case over the prime minister did say that any jail sentence is already a tough punishment and perhaps any more time for pushing right behind bars may not be effective. but. the fact that these young women had been in custody for quite some time is by itself as of the verdict somewhat already

a very serious punishment for the dog that's regardless of the decision we're taking which is staying in prison is retribution in itself under very strict months ago regarding the content of this i don't want to be a judge is substitute but in my opinion the punishment they've already slowing if two hundred. they spent in custody is more than enough for them to think of what's happened to their laws whether it's because of their stupidity or because of some of the reasons. many called them to. play for the few. we. across the country. place the c.d.'s to. waste remembers she was sentenced to two years behind bars after having been found guilty of being based on the. prime minister's words right . that's going to happen on the first of october so we'll still
