of the u.k. orders a probe into why fuel costs are kept high even when oil prices drop the traders on city speculators accused of rigging the market. this is with me wrong. furious crowds attacking american embassies across the islamic world are refusing to scale down the protests which continue to claim lives in egypt demonstrators angry over a u.s. made film. and now in a standoff with police for a fourth day reporting. the situation certainly is a lot calm and quiet safe here in front of the american embassy in cairo the called

has been pushed back washed out of this area although there are still a few hundreds on on saturday morning but certainly nothing like the scenes we were witnessing over the past few days there is still a pretty strange to all tear gas in the area if you look behind me you will see the security barrier that the security forces pulled on friday morning and this was to try and stop protests this week the american embassy which is just on the other side i spent several hours one time in that violence because there's simply no way to run to all the shops and barricaded the windows as well as the doors by the hotels in the area had closed down and that continues pretty frightening when you have protesters on the one side holding these two huge chunks of glass and concrete at the security forces who were firing constant rounds of tear gas overnight there was also an attack by forces on an american base in the afghani stump up in helmand now at least two of us movies were killed in the ninety's that it's stale the al to

security perimeter know that this is also the base the way the british police how he was stationed but that he managed to go on home and there have also been protests taking place as far afield as australia where several hundred protesters chanted messages such as down down here it's a nuisance that we use it to gas to disperse those crowds the demonstrations are now spreading like wildfire across north africa and the middle east of course the anger being expressed on the streets is anger against this american made film that bomb that mocks prophet mohammad we've seen demonstrations in value the dish in malaysia in gaza also in iraq in sudan at least three people are known to have died in demonstrations in the capital city of khartoum these took place when protesters tried to reach the american embassy and to get into the united states is sending marines to back up security where the german as well as the british embassies were also under attack. in yemen we've heard these people have been killed in various

places there u.s. marines have kept the city of sun up to try and just use the situation in tunis we hearing that at least two people have died this happened when college scaled the walls of the american embassy and managed to get inside the compound basically fire on some of the keys inside the compound and at the same time they set fire on an american school even constant levanon at least one person has died when a chain restaurant came under fire massive council sitting gathering not only in the northern middle east of tripoli but also expressing anger in the capital city of beirut at the same time if you think maybe over the final two points to save the american ambassador as well this week i've personally seen this mission live has. no more united states what is the mission a first is have an opening to do this today should have made similar with me hearing from them that they believe that this has all the telltale signs kind of

a need is incredibly volatile across the region with the demonstrations today saturday. reporting right there from cairo well it all to dot com team is working twenty four seven to bring you the latest news from the arab world as well as a great pitchers on the expert analysis with posting the latest updates there live right as they come in and there's now a time line of showing exactly how the situation is developing. los angeles police interviews the suspected director of the american made and t.v. muslim film which triggered the pan out of breath of the islamic art rest on our website our team talk. it's good to have you with us here on oxy today washington has deployed its marines across the arab world to protect u.s. missions while the white house struggles to contain this fallout america's

leadership has condemned this film and stressed it has nothing to do with it but it's not his guy next to kind of reports the video is not the only grievance the protesters have. as angry mobs in muslim countries stormed u.s. embassies in bern american flags the u.s. president delivers yet another speech about how good america's intentions really are and have been in the muslim world america's a friend that we care not just about our own country not just about our own interests but about theirs that even as voices of suspicion mistrust seek to divide countries and cultures from one another the united states of america will never retreat from the world. we will never stop working for the dignity and freedom that every person deserves it could be that the obama administration thinks by supporting revolutions by fostering regime change washington is winning the hearts and minds of the people in that part of the world but recent events showed

that's not quite so if you look at poll numbers that gauge public attitude towards the u.s. in different muslim countries u.s. approval rating is the same as it was under president george w. bush in some countries like pakistan it's much worse and these numbers have nothing to do with the infamous film but they do have something to do with us policies you know we can rap any kind of purple finger revolution we want people to have democracy and have freedom but at the end of the day when we look at the results of what's been accomplished over two decades of being in this region destabilizing the region we have hundreds of millions of people who have it in a lot of cases had their world turned upside down and in many cases they've had relatives that have been killed in this process and we're building an enemy's towards this country and you know it i think that there's a need for a major wake up call in the west especially the united states the way the administration is trying to somehow contain the blowback over this same type islamic film is by bashing the film and saying that they too find it disgusting but

now it's clear to pretty much everyone that it's not just about the film this rage against the united states has been brewing for a while and it seems it needed just a spark to blow up and the film tragically provided that spark need ministrations soothing words about democracy don't seem to help much in putting out the flame of rage now sweeping across the arab world in washington i'm going to. and as god i was saying are the words from washington are having a little effect to quell the protests and antiwar activists to join ri says their actions the u.s. can take to show its goodwill and try and calm the situation. i would say that there are a number of things that should be done immediately first of all the troops should be withdrawn from afghanistan immediately that would be a huge signal in the in the in the muslim world that america didn't intend to continue the neo conservative policy of the last ten years or so they could

immediately withdraw the covert assistance which they are they are giving it in the syrian in the syrian conflict they could immediately withdraw the sanctions on iran these would be very very serious signals the rather than president obama ringing up president morsi and lecturing him for twenty minutes both all accounts about how his government needs to be more pro-american it would be better if he dealt with the people in his own country that is producing this this kind of thing after all america has fought a war in two predominantly muslim countries in the last ten years three if you include his involvement in the attack on libya now surely it should be a moment where a responsible leader of a country that has done that takes some action when a film is produced of this kind which in those circumstances is bound to result in

anger across the middle east. russia's most in population has also been offended by this u.s. made film however no protest rallies have been station the country which has several predominantly muslim regions now the leader of one of these a russia's republic of chechnya has said that no violence will be allowed to take place but of ramzan kadyrov criticized those who incite mass unrest with astley anti islamic films and publications he said that russia's a muslim believers were outraged by the hatred towards the faith expressed in the film. said the u.s. should prosecute the creators of the film and charge them with the deaths of the people killed in the protests which included the american ambassador to libya.

it's now at ten minutes past the hour moscow time russia's opposition walks out for its first big rallies after a summer glau of calls to answer people's social grievances are certainly dominating the protest for the first time opposition groups have been joined by teachers and other public sector workers and marches are taking place all across the country the largest being held right here in central moscow the artes a ridiculous go is a certainly others see in a nearby to it as well i mean i understand it's a broad mix of protesting groups can you try to run down some of their grievances for us. yes of course well it's the one actually it's the biggest difference between this protest rally and the ones that the opposition has held before because this time around we're not just dealing with the coals tool for basically go down with the government and for the extraordinary election to the state duma which is the russian parliament or these ordinary presidential elections now we actually

have a wide range of issues. starting with. the disapproval of the education reform which a lot of people are saying will be essentially the end of free education in russia all the way down to the end pursuit pensions even if tolerant of labor unions basically a very very wide range of social issues and that is why we're actually seeing a lot of people for handing out leaflets which have to do which are dealing with the things like the education and financing of these occasions sector again and of the sciences as well as cultural projects in the country so there's a lot more focus on these as social issues on like the previous rallies but still we're dealing with a wide variety of groups represented here every everybody from the ultra nationalist movement by the way they were the loudest i fear at the moment all the way to the defenders of gay and lesbian rights said down to the so-called eurasian

youth union who are so who actually came out against this rally and to quote them they have called it a creation of satan also a lot of people have been have been here with t. shirts and slogans that in defense of up with the reality of pussy riot of course that is the front group alexis who had been imprisoned for two years it just just in august of for inciting religious or hatred and for that in ism after their so-called punk prayer in christ the savior cathedral so really a really wide range of issues a lot of different people represented but really for the first time in this opposition movement we're looking at some concrete statements regarding the social issues because until now. sound of the members. are saying that there is no direct certain goals or statements coming from this movement is basically just against everybody that's least that's what it was until now so there is there are some changes here at the moment so unless you're saying you're going it's a mixed bunch of protestors and the opposition demonstrators that authorities as

far as we understand have granted permission for up to twenty five thousand to gather and voice their issues so what kind of numbers do you think we're expecting today. but the last official numbers that we have received from the police are saying that there is about five thousand protesters here of course the organizers of the rally are saying there is fifteen thousand but that has been the story all the way from the beginning the police are giving you one number and then the opposition now leaders would come out and say no with there's been a lot more people but there was one there was a trend here the opposite the rallies of the apposition have actually been growing smaller and smaller in number of us starting from the beginning of the here in fact there were twenty three thousand boarding to the police according to police data in june and a lot fewer than what the opposition were hoping to bring out they were going out for about one hundred thousand people now of course there are two issues which we're looking at at this particular rally of course is the number of people how many people are actually going to support or still supporting the opposition cause

and there's also of course the second issue and that is of security is hearing there may be protests there were some disturbances when now probably caters in the crowd started throwing rocks at the police so there were hugs several hundred people actually were arrested at that point us to a policeman actually had to be hospitalized because of the injuries that they have received and nobody in this particular case of wanted the same thing to happen the june protests run down just nicely peacefully and everybody is hoping that this is going to be the same story here again by looks of it were from what we could see actually think that people were actually quite peaceful but very very few exceptions but i have to say that judging by the fact that there how. have been very few have people actually drinking beer before coming into the protests that perhaps this actually will be a peaceful rally after all hopefully both for the police and for the opposition right there live in central moscow thank you. it's good of you with us here in just a bit later in this hour to tweet or not to tweet we ask the question.

for the general public so. it's going to be used against him in court you know he should have said it you know he's going to incriminate himself. after new york court orders the release of private tweet so the resident wonders whether free speech is at stake on the web. now britain has ordered financial watchdogs to investigate a possible oil prices scandal traders and city speculators are accused of rigging markets to make sure the price drops are not passed on to consumers as artie's laura smith reports the costs of pushing up how much britain's end up paying for all. the city is under fire again this time it's traders and speculators in for a grilling as the energy minister announces an investigation into breaking the petrol price it's meant fulls in the oil price on pulse on to consumers making petrol and diesel more expensive in real terms than they've ever seen pump price is

quick to fill when the oil price rises but very slow to cool when it goes down petrol price campaign is calling on they found guilty of breaking the price to go to prison the scandal follows a huge rise in the price at the pump it's gone up ten p. since to around one pound forty elites and that high price builds a down into the entire economy ninety percent of everything we have in our homes is delivered by low rate and with fuel prices so high haulage companies are full of to post the things that consume is making literally everything food clothes domestic appliances more expensive it also impacts on labor mobility so how far people can travel to get to work and whether they can get new jobs that require some distance

to the fuel price can even add on the unemployment rate which is hovering around eight percent at the moment wants to know what the alternative is speculating on what is the price of one of the consequences of free market capitalism which often results in corporations getting rich sometimes at the expense of ordinary people so imprison the perpetrators they might but it's unlikely to change much what it will do is divert attention from the government after all sixty percent of the price consumers pay at the pump is tax the highest in europe. right now our demand for iranian oil is on the rise despite an. embargo and american sanctions the international energy agency says tehran sold more of its crude in that in july when the restrictions came into force or the measures are aimed at forcing iran to stop its nuclear program which tehran maintains it's for purely peaceful purposes despite this the country's resources are still in demand with

turkey china and india currently the top importers the u.s. treasury meanwhile says the sanctions are effective and have slashed iran's crude exports and a half compared to last year which of i'll be the policy director of the national iranian american council says iran's nuclear program will not suffer and. i don't know that you could actually look at the lost revenues from oil exports and say iran has taken away money from its nuclear program or reduced money for military spending because frankly with the threat of war i think iran is probably continuing down that path that has already already has been on sanctions you know there's no perfect sanctions regime there's always going to be whole series always going to be loopholes there's always going to be this game of whack a mole where iran responds in the u.s. tries to ratchet up and you're never going to get a perfect embargo. so i think that the question the question is ok now you have

these sanctions what do we do with these are we going to leverage these or is this a repeat of what we had with iraq where we did a great job of restricting oil sales have been doing well for food but the end of the day that didn't actually yield anything but massive humanitarian suffering suffering and then eventually this movement for disasters invasion. twenty minutes past the hour here in moscow time for the answer you want to update now will start in south africa are police raided the hospital mine workers in the area reported to be seizing arresting twelve people on friday the government announced a crackdown on what it called illegal gatherings negotiations have yielded no breakthrough in industrial and rest which are earlier so police shoot thirty four miners strikes started at the beginning of august forcing the closure of four mines belonging to anglo american platinum of the world's largest producer. and in madrid tens of thousands are on the streets once again in protest at strict

austerity measures teachers students and other public sector workers are all taking part but they are among the worst hit the government expects spending cuts will prevent spain from needing a multi-billion euro bailout like the ones portugal ireland and greece. for the conductors of cambridge are suing a french magazine after a published topless photographs of kate middleton or the pictures were taken while the couple were holidaying at a private chateau in france the legal proceedings have been launched in the country over alleged breach of privacy but could be more trouble in store for the role couple as an italian magazine is reported to also be preparing a twenty six page photo special all of them on the same. twitter has agreed to hand over the deleted tweets of an occupy wall street protester who was among those charged for blocking the brooklyn bridge last year the social network was threatened with sanctions if it didn't give up around three months worth of the

activists records to a new york court the tweets allegedly undermine the protesters claims that the police intentionally pushed the crowds onto the bridge only to arrest them for obstructing traffic. or critics say that twitter's decision sets a precedent where authorities can now obtain information which was assumed to be private our resident our lord often a star went to the streets of new york to find out if people feel less protected. a manhattan judge has ordered twitter to release the tweets of an occupy wall street protester and those tweets are expected to be used against him in a criminal trial is that an invasion of his privacy and right free speech this week let's talk about that so let's say it was a terrorist saying ok let's go attack somebody what it was it was it was an american expressing his views. you know just trying to get his message out there ok

some would call him a terrorist and the person that you might think is a terrorist might feel like they're just expressing them their needs and what they're frustrated by. i don't know if we always seem to be you know. giving you information that you haven't been revealed yet or broadcast yet so i appreciate that we're going to hope it never stops because he's put out there for the general public so. it's going to be used against when court you know we shouldn't set it you know he's going to incriminate himself that's his own fault that what you say under free speech is so it should still be subject to law yeah if i go on television and tell everybody how to avoid cops how to commit a crime and get away with it. on television. smile faults i think the most interesting thing about twitter is if the internet is not journalism but writing is going to start to say more of a hold than it probably needs to be treated similar soon newspaper ads or other

things that might be written in print media and so i'm not sure if twitter should give it up. if they want to start to grow i think they might have to do what about that person's right to their own tweets and their privacy depends how serious the mire is i think yeah i think. that line do you trust the government to draw that line i don't know if you don't want to in the public you don't put it out on. yeah it's kind of a canvas screaming out a window if you're posting it on the internet. so things like most people agree because social media is taking on a more important role in social justice change and counterculture the laws around social media are going to have to evolve as well. twenty five minutes past the time when the world's biggest conglomerates bring

their business to the most secluded and often sacred corners of the earth usually hurt more than just people's local beliefs and the done to promised an ancient indian tribe prosperity and the technological leap into the future but as a reporter it turned out to be a wolf in sheep's clothing. it's one of the most serene and sacred places in india me i'm gary hills home to the. tribe three years thousands of tribal people here have been relocated by a london based conglomerate the vedanta group it wanted to mine into mountains considered sacred to extract the aluminum or box a for use in its refineries specially built nearby but the social and environmental costs have been high to the income source of people from three hundred fifty villages have been destroyed so what will these people do they depend on the land and forest for their livelihood believe that their land is their mother father god we have

a deep respect for their land but for now the indian government has kicked out saying the group has violated forest conservation and environmental protection laws that. while some say india could stimulate its economy by accessing its natural resources the people in this community believe that their land is sacred and they're not going to let any foreign corporations come in and destroy it praful says that vedanta took two acres of his land promised him compensation but that he never received anything and it's not just his communities environment that has been destroyed he says that the actions of the company have damaged the wellbeing of local people so there's been an increase in pollution which is led to many health issues. and breathing problems vedanta did not respond to our requests for comment but has said in the past that

it believes it can make significant contributions to the people of the area and bring development to the region critics however say that hasn't happened. most of the local people that we've spoken to feel that they've had promises made by the company that have just been broken and that they not only have they not received development from the company but fundamentally they do not want development in the company all they want is to be allowed to live their lives in peace the confrontation has received attention from high profile figures like movie director james cameron who compared the dispute to a real life avatar vedanta are trying to appeal the decision by the indian government in a bid to allow them to continue their work but for now local people are celebrating their victory in preserving their ancestral lands. we figured out who will work towards our development and he will not we want to live the way we did it came here

and it seems like they might have the chance to do just that they don greer can say they'll fight for what's theirs no matter who they're up against preassure either r.t. or india. or don't know just a couple of minutes here on our tour we bring you the story of a russian woman who overcame all the yards to become a double paralympic swimming champion out of the run off of the headlines in just. all.
