now and welcome to our team this thursday karen taraji and it is three o'clock here in moscow in georgia may police won't be drafted into work at all jails after the president ordered the suspension of the country's entire prison security staff that's us thousands took to the streets in response to a t.v. broadcast of a video appearing to show inmates being tortured and sexually abused by guards. has the details from to b.c. . these are the largest protests georgia seen in years and i'm not only talking about the thousands of people taking to the streets in the capital of tbilisi but process and also happen in many other large towns across the country many people here are very angry with this video right now and some protestors keenlyside saying the reef mia barely addressed georgian authorities others as signs saying concern

is not enough addressed the european union official some people claim to have recognized their own relatives being allegedly abused by prison officials and this is a small country and news here really spreads quickly and so does public anger and the protesters are demanding not only the sacking off officials responsible for the interior ministry but also for their illegal prosecution now the videos themselves were leaked by a former employee a staff member of one of the main prisons in georgia not far away from the b.b.c. this man is going to be in exile in belgium and the video show alleged abuse by the staff members of the inmates not only the beating up of inmates but also literally torture including sexual abuse and including abuse of minors all of this is happening in light of a major public city campaign promoting the recent reports of georgia's penitentiary

system jails are presented with an image of being as transparent as they get inmates even have quads to get rid of cash to fight corruption so these videos and this whole scandal is definitely a huge blow to this p.r. campaign george is preparing for parliamentary elections there's already tension in the air the opposition is being quite active as well and so these videos are a major punch in the piece to georgian authorities believe well what's also interesting is that many protesters have. compared these videos to forage from the infamous one time of prison but if we talk about guantanamo then there are terror suspects held there while the people who are in these videos are just ordinary inmates. you caught us going all there is covering the story for our team and you can follow the latest developments on his twitter feed. political analyst eric

draitser he believes the roots of the problem can be found within the regime itself we've seen over the course of a number of years the saakashvili government has demonstrated that they have little to no regard for human rights we only need to look at the conflict in south of the city and in a positive to see what the saakashvili administration actually is interested in they're not interested in human rights they're interested in aggression and most importantly they're interested in shoring up their relationship with the united states saakashvili is without a doubt one of the most egregious violators of human rights and human dignity anywhere in the world and i stress that once again that saakashvili cannot exist without the united states we remember his close close relationship with the bush administration saakashvili is desires to put nato into the to put georgia into the nato spear of influence into nato is for a bit and so yes there's absolutely a trend and this is precisely why the united states is able to continue to support

saakashvili in the same way that they've supported brutal dictators all over the world for the last few decades. political analyst eric draitser talking to us there from new york. france is rushing to ensure the safety of its diplomatic missions and braun after in french satirical magazine published cartoons of being naked prophet muhammad parasail season schools in some countries to minimize risk but the prime minister has defended media freedom parties more if a national has the details. this is definitely a sensitive issue in the world right now as protests against the u.s. make it feel. it's especially sensitive for france which houses western europe's largest muslim population there are five million people we've heard both wards of criticism and just a few cation for the katun from top french officials the foreign minister expressed concern for the safety of french citizens across the world saying that could to add

fuel to the flames security has been boosted in the country's missions across the islamic world with embassies in schools closed for several days the prime minister however sad the freedom of expression including said tire is guaranteed by law in a democratic society and those who take issue with the katun should go to court and this is exactly what happened in the case of the duchess of cambridge who was topless photos were printed in the french media the british royal family has taken the matter to court and the reprinting of the pictures was banned and friends but many see corsi here because definitely it's much easier for the member of the royal family to defend. privacy in the courts than for not removed live for example living outside the fronts of the double standards the promise of. miss injuries to the rest of the world or what so the room two years but now. on

the other side of the moment good to be really strong. so this is sort of is the reaction from the government and friends this is again fuel in the debate on liberty versus security with actually no clear understanding of where to draw the line even with the government itself with the french government in this case there's a typical magazine meanwhile that publish the cartoons claims it is their right to more whatever they want including extremists and they say that they more the issues of the day every week it's actually this particular magazine is supposed to do so this is a satirical magazine and they are famous for a very special humor and they've been very sensitive subjects such as catholic choice law make law but some say it's just a rush to make profit as this issue of the magazine sold out and they are planning

to improve on its treatment of political activists and try to prevent violence against ethnic and religious communities after criticism and recommendations from the un human rights body as artie's laura smith now reports western leaders have affectively close their eyes to what's happening in the country with other concerns in the region. but i think i also find out why. this conflict only oppression and brutality of the regime one day no matter how long it takes there will be a day of reckoning for this dreadful regime. about syria and they've put their money where their mouth is giving five million pounds in so-called normally aid to those trying to oust president assad but less than a thousand miles away in bahrain there's another human rights crisis ongoing and on that leaders remain conspicuously silent their g.m. has not spared any means of repression torture has not seized at all and in the

loose. people who are just releasing the last day or two. inches have got stuck. of course the use of sectarianism. is there. more than that is the kidnapping. people from three or four beat them up torture them not inside the torture chambers but in farms in what they call the whose houses bahrain is home to a forgotten revolution ignored by the international community under reported in the media since february last year there have been almost daily anti-government protests in the resulting crackdown around a hundred have been killed with sixteen hundred in jail including sixty children and full of bahrain's most prominent human rights activists all that in

a country of only one and a half million but the u.k. government says nothing to long standing historical connection between britain and bahrain which was in fact holland in seventy one certainly the association with the u.s. fifth fleet there is the oil problem and that's the banking problem along this is harmful to our interests because sooner or later all the gulf markets are going to disappear puff of smoke and then the regimes that succeed them will not be friendly country which is a process far from being condemned representatives of the bahraini regime have been a common sight at the u.k.'s major events this summer king how much was invited to the queen's diamond jubilee celebrations in may his eldest son visited david cameron at downing street and his youngest son who allegedly sanctioned the torture of dissident bahraini athletes was at the opening of london's olympic games but it

goes further and deeper than that despite the brutal crackdown between july and september last year the u.k. sold. point two million pounds worth of to the bahraini regime shortly after that the u.k.'s most famous military training school accepted a three million pound donation from the king of bahrain and the metropolitan police's former assistant commissioner was appointed as an advisor on security to the regime with no objections from the u.k. government bahrain campaigners say it's ruining the government's credibility it's only when they stand up in public and say we host this torture we oppose these autocratic regimes and democracy only then will the british government have any credibility whatsoever and at this moment. has.

the bahraini opposition and their supporters aren't calling for intervention but they do want the international community to condemn the regime they say is at least as oppressive as the syrian regime that western powers are so desperate to get rid of. london. more international news stories coming your way after a break to stay with our. well into the future science technology innovation all the wisdom elements from around russia we've got the future covered. flying north with me in this old soviet work or so the helicopter is dr van amir brodsky and his team from the region's medical aviation service we head across ever

more barren tundra higher and higher into russia's arctic far north until eventually we see our landing spot with the arrival of this tiny village after crossing hundreds of kilometers of snow a wilderness as a boy here suffering favor and the doctors are going to see what they can do. inside a small building not one but two babies and their parents are waiting for us the doctors inspect them but can't make a diagnosis and decide to bring them to a regional hospital for better care spread lana doesn't like taking her baby away from home but she's been before and agrees to go that's the usual practice with. the keep mothers with their newborns in hospital for a month. on the way back another stop to check on the health of some native minutes reindeer herders out in the tundra it can take many hours to reach the nearest village so all medical problems simply fixed here in the tent. they used to be but

now we can go to civilized places so we call for emergency help. back at hospital other patients helped by the air ambulance are being treated the service costs fourteen million dollars a year to run and there's been controversy with some claiming that locals exaggerate or make up health problems and use the helicopters as a free taxi service accusations fly. firmly dismisses you bro that is not true usually the calls are perfectly justified sometimes we reproach locals waiting too long before calling us he's been working as a doctor now for forty three years but not a marriage confident the diva now after he retires his helicopter doctors will remain a lifeline to the peoples of the russian far north. welcome to our care and. washington is urging china and japan to find

a diplomatic solution to their territorial dispute over a group of islands in the east china sea this follows days of protests in china that have in some cases turned quite violent and brought huge financial losses for japanese companies operating in the country japan has also recently agreed to host more elements of america's missile defense shield let's discuss this now with asia pacific expert. gus i thank you for taking the time to talk to r.t. today now beijing and tokyo are close trading partners who's going to suffer more in this disputed fact. the people. lose in this crisis. don't forget we're going to. do is around three hundred fifty billion dollars dockyard and in this catching on to create using currency. and the yen.

political terms likely. there's reason game we government is not new and different it's politics. in an economic terms o's i would say more china because these are developing countries. develop entry you know i think both countries appear to lose. some of the threats that we have heard in china boycotting and some of the plans of these companies you also heard about in the last hours are like moving for example needs production or some company brought outside trying to other. countries. that posed something of course chinese patrol vessels were spotted near the disputed islands on wednesday how serious or hell out of hand do you think this is

all getting i think is not out of it all to see that. they are here in asia pacific just you know there's a blues on china and at the same time so far i don't think is out of control this does not mean a certain time is a long for some days and weeks might turn into something really nasty now the u.s. and japan both claim the missile shield is aimed against north korea not china do you think beijing has any reason to worry and also do you think that this is further framing the flaming the flames rather of the territorial dispute it. yes that part of the creation of this is not the moment to announce. such a defense system and i think it is unnecessary in any case i think it has any reason to be worried about or in the long term or not in the short term i think it

was maybe. north korea let's concede but i think the. reasons to be worried about that apart clearly of a new doctrine launched by president obama announced some months ago the following morning we deployment of forces around the asia pacific nordic to be more. aware of what. issues that are concerning china now the u.s. defense secretary leon panetta urged china to increase military ties with america and then the next day yes agreed against our defense expansion with japan so it looks like washington is just trying to keep everyone happy what is its motivation here. it seems like we did lose a gust of salt all that was asia pacific expert a gust of salt. all right for notorious gang

leaders are among eight suspected militants that have been killed in a special operation and that the russian. about do you know in the north caucasus the militants were hiding in a residential building in the capital chick when told to surrender or they opened fire at security forces and militant leaders or wanted for numerous attacks on police and other crimes two women were also reportedly among those killed. all right time now for more of the world's main news this hour syrian state t.v. says that a military helicopter has crashed in the city of dumas while the opposition insists it was down by its wires meanwhile the u.n. chief says you know the term solution is not the way out of the going on like this comes a syrian rebel sees another border crossing with turkey on wednesday but could open a new supply route the u.k. is foreign secretary william hague also said it's possible britain will serve weapons to opposition fighters. and israeli airstrike targeting

a car has killed three palestinians in the gaza town of rafah near the egyptian border palestinian officials say the victims were security officials responsible for building tunnels to import goods from egypt but israel claims the men were terrorists planning attacks on its territory. opposition parties and hundreds of trade union workers have taken to the streets across india as part of the nationwide strike the protests were sparked by rising diesel prices and a government plan to open the country's future retail market to foreign companies strikes disrupted train services in. and bihar states shut schools and businesses protesters fear the plans will destroy a family owned stores that occupy a central place in indian daily life. all right let's now join k.b. for a business news now it's ok to british energy giant b.p.

is once again in talks with russia's top all company to give us the details well the energy mage's they have once again are a new partnership told now well staffed is reportedly off to buying be paid out of eighteen k.v. pay. for fifteen billion dollars and twelve point five percent of its retail the two companies it raised russian president vladimir putin late on thursday all the detail and also. danced bibi's expansion plans in russia and now meanwhile is in talks with banks about raising the funds to finance the potential deal i'm going to stay with all from minolta and how they look at the prices if you are in the market for lying about the sun today and that is what you going to pay the prices are indeed the lowest level for more than just six weeks now and as a result energy stocks of course the actually markets are the the biggest losers and that is because supply is actually increasing in the u.s.

the biggest crude consumer as well as that we also have this saudi arabia oil minister saying that the prices of right now a simply too high if we get into the russian markets and the see how those prices are affecting the energy dependent stocks here as you can see we are looking at declines of the soft to noon as well as out we opened up after a negative close in asia as well so it was pretty much a domino effect that we have had now according to legendary investor jim rogers that change is coming and it's a good time to invest in russia. russians have been saying good things for a hundred years but then they would always take everybody's money away and now they seem to be from what i can gather the actions are such that they are actually putting up their own money to invest side by side with outsiders that is a remarkable change from anything that's ever happened in russia before from what everything i can see the russian government now understands how the international

economy works and they realize they have to play by the same rules as everybody else. the russian ruble is still managing to lose out in the session the euro is also having a troubling time of it the european actually markets too on a negative territory i'm not the first to klein a decline for a day in and for watching and that's because of china's manufacturing industry apparently in the trot for the eleventh month but i apparently this is a deliberate before the official one he's not smart enough to come up with these i'll be back in fifty five minutes actually be done you may i will be even though we are lots of fun to look at the european markets and the hope is as soon as you're up to date in the world of the markets of finance karen all right thanks so much for creating. in a few minutes marks cause or brings you all the scandal behind the latest headlines .

invented by the famed soviet author peter is good for you is there of in the nine hundred fifty s. these frames were initially used to treat fractures in deformities by cutting bones and slowly pulling them apart and therefore stimulating tissue regeneration it was off was able to reshape arms and legs and people who thought they were crippled for life about a third of patients admitted to be always out of center nowadays seeking series three focus magic reasons most of them a man and most are not what you would call vertically challenged professor know because who operated on many of them sas it usually comes down to man's pride summer first patient return to us with a leg length i mean

a quest to meet his fifteen centimeters to still want to surgery because panos tool than him we like to say that we need to break their legs in order to fix their head like lengthening surgeries a band in many countries and even the out there pretty expensive in russia the entire course costs eleven thousand dollars about one tenth of the similar package in the united states financial considerations for one of the reasons they brought this washington state native to western siberia his main motive for the surgery had to do with how he fared in the others in america average age is one seventy five i was one sixty seven or one sixty one so eight centimeters would have brought me right to average for women height isn't so important girl can be sure it's not a big deal like the guy is like expected to be taller just before the operation most. a russian girl who found he's

a regional hide quite in dealing yet he still want to have the surgery adding seven more centimeters to the self-confidence she told me the whole time you're crazy you're normal you're perfect. so now or so they call you so what a compliment for somebody who's used to falling short of his own expectations. i ask out of this is the kaiser report already told you it's a currency war i told you were in world war three i told you it's all about various countries attack each other using financial derivatives but i didn't look at the sideline from paying for a bonus but i'm sure compares bon bons to work of the devil the work of the devil who worked all of the devil as i am told you all live show no furthermore let's go to china urged to launch attacks on japan's bond market right here right here

today's paper right now global currency war meanwhile over in san francisco the fed asked their facebook page question what effect do you think your week three will have on the u.s. economy some of the answers from the good citizen america were why mark printer toner i'm a big bag i love it i went to one of the queen's councils and asked one of her below she what he thought of big big ben bernanke used to infinity what do you think he had to say. stacey never tell me more that she looks scared you know if that she saw this first headline max he would also be scared s.e.c. charges new york stock exchange for improper distribution of market data so this is the first ever fine against the stock exchange and the f.c.c. has charged new york stock exchange with. clients failures thank you certain

customers an improper head start on trading information and you can see from this little chart here all the information flow first to the proprietary trading not to the consolidated feeds which are to the public so max you designed the software that is used on this new york stock exchange or part of it is what do you think i designed a replacement for the replacement technology but that's where the where i was laid out years it was meant to override those broker dealer conflict on the floor of the stock exchange that used a special system they i suppose as a broker and as a dealer meaning they maintain an inventory of stocks and they're able to buy and sell on the open market to maintain that a majority and you satisfied market owners when they come in you get a guarantee that secures you when you put a market order into the exchange but giving wiggle room to the specialist to trade on inside information and that's allowed to foster liquidity but what we see here stacey is a new york stock exchange is selling the wiggle room to proprietary clients who are trading on inside information so.
