a failed while this concern over how much taxpayer cash is being spent on pounding was. watching r t my name is kevin owen it's very good to have you with us this hour breaking news again to start this hour a developing story in the last hour or two the owner of several russian and american companies has been charged in the united states tonight with being a secret russian agent illegally exporting microelectronics to the russian military let's get up to speed on it then as best we can go to new york full of the details are important the story's been breaking over the last hour or so what we know about the charges so far and who else is implicated. well what we know so far kevin is that according to the f.b.i. they say that this alleged spy ring was operating in houston and was working to

enhance the capabilities of the russian military alexander shango and eleven others have been arrested and charged with falsifying documents and illegally exporting high tech micro electronics from the u.s. to russian military and intelligence intelligence agencies now according to the f.b.i. was using his company arc electronics to export u.s. made goods which includes according to prosecutors analogue to digital converters static random access memory chips microcontrollers and microprocessors u.s. officials say that russia does not even produce many of these goods domestically these goods have allegedly advanced russia's military technological capabilities now the reason this is such a big deal is because this equipment according to u.s. officials is subject to strict u.s. government controls due to their potential use in a wide range of military systems including radar and surveillance systems and

weapons guidance systems the defendants as you mentioned were arrested yesterday and today they will be arraigned at the u.s. courthouse in houston but afterwards the u.s. government is going to seek their removal and see for them to be trying to get them transferred to the eastern district of new york why the u.s. government tried to transfer these people to new york new york is not clear yet that's what we're still trying to figure out but clearly some harsh rhetoric is being used and these are serious accusations the f.b.i. is making. saying you know eleven i'm sorry twelve people of operating a spy network on behalf of the russian government of course the previous. ones as well as mine. yeah of course that is clearly the first the first story i thought of when i was reading this information coming out for the f.b.i.

and you know one could not forget the spy scandal or legit spy scandal that took place just a few years ago with the u.s. rounding up a bunch of people i think it was twelve if i'm not mistaken around that number in new york in maryland and possibly one other city claiming that these people were operating and living in the u.s. to spy for the russian government by the end of the circumstance all of those people in this alleges firing were sent to russia and that's where they are in the majority of them i think remain but clearly that story. headlines lot of facts are still coming out about this one so we're still trying to find out more and of course once we do we will be updating our viewers. much. susan estrich syria's largest city around forty people dead over one hundred are injured many of trapped under the rubble there of what's thought to have been

a suicide last tog the military. middle east correspondent paula slee has got the details. syrian state television is reporting that this is the work of terrorists and that dozens of people have been killed many of them belonging to the syrian regime now it comes amid intensified fighting between government forces and rebel fighters in the city and we are understanding that the explosions were a few minutes apart they happened near the city's largest squares at least one massive crater has remained in the ground and that the facade of several tall buildings nearby were completely ripped apart according to eyewitnesses there the explosions were followed immediately by intensified gun battles and clashes we are also hearing that by all accounts it seems as if the explosions were caused by call bombs now this is not good neighbor of pride but it does suggest that this is the work of suicide bombers there isn't a binny's newspaper that is reporting that the syrian president bashar assad is in

the city of aleppo where he is visiting and seeing firsthand what the battles there have been bringing about and that is also ordered at least some thirty thousand troops to be deployed it is unusual it certainly is rare that they have been suicide bombings in the city of aleppo and there was a bombing back in february in which twenty eight people were killed but most of you know all the suicide bomb bombings have been concentrated in the capital city of damascus and over the past few days and certainly over the past few weeks there has been an intensified number of car bombs exploding where now the rebels have come forward and tamed responsibility for those car bombings so far no one has tempers sponsibility for this particular attack but it certainly does have all the fingerprints of rebel car bombing suicide attacks there was a court last week by will find has in which they say that they would intensify the fighting in the mid they said that they were going to end the battle there it comes

amid reports that we're receiving that qatar has saved nearly two hundred million dollars to the free syrian army so certainly the scene seems to have been said for fighting to intensify certainly in the near future and looking now in the city of aleppo. paulus lear well eric today says from the french center for intelligence studies he spoke to us bitterly believes the terror tactics being increased new used in damascus in aleppo reveal the rebels inability to win the support of the local it is always the same salafist groups for instance wards and more and more we see know that the use of classical terrorist techniques because they want to put some more pressure on the syrian regime we have a lot of proves that the foreign countries i mean mostly saudi arabia and of called the states are supporting terrorists i think the support isn't going to start on more than we the fact that we have more and more attacks in aleppo and damascus

which present fifty percent of the population if the sign that tourists are absolute seem unable to take control of this town and we have to see that most leaned and go as well as in damascus the time of quiet and all the servers which have been hailed by the rebuild some weeks ago on their own that they in control so the fact that they do see suicide bombings for me is the proof that they are not able to take control of this stunt. well russia's foreign ministers clarified the country position a way to solve the syrian conflict he talked about was instigating it to you if you'd like to find out what sort of told major russian major russian newspaper you can find out is ladies utterances is interview on our website. well middle east countries could fall into the hands of terrorists who are now active in syria those are fears that are being voiced by the head of russia's security service the f.s.b. along with other possible shock waves that my emanate from the conflict is. the

head of russia's federal security service alexander bought recalled was talking about his concerns not just about sectarian violence in the middle east not about the humanitarian crisis there but about his fear of the risk of the rise of islamic terror groups specifically al qaeda in the region there are specific fears about what al qaeda and terrorist groups may be trying to do in the region a that they may be trying to gain higher positions within new government structures there and b. that they may find it easier to try and get their hands on weapons of mass destruction which would create a very dangerous situation indeed specific to russia he talked about the reported sightings of north caucasus terrorists operating in the region and gaining valuable experience there and he talked about a new strategy that of a thousand stabs being employed lots of little attacks and mr bought

a cop says that the e.u. wildfires that have caused such problems recently may have been started by terrorists citing the websites encouraging terrorists to try and cause as much damage as possible by doing things like lighting fires which require very little imports those are the messages from the f.s.b. heads about the danger of the growth of terrorism in the restive middle east. elsewhere in the region how bahrain's working to keep a lid on the pro-democracy protests you speak to a former c.n.n. journalist to be an award winning documentary on atrocities in bahrain she sheds light on how the channel dances to the cheering the dictator she shares his story with this a bit later this hour. but next the fate of over two hundred thousand dollars the julian assange your supporters pledge to bail him out with a prison term almost two years ago remains unclear the decision supposed to be made

at the court hearing this wednesday has now been delayed sara furthest been following the case scott the latest. well it was supposed to be decision day for that group of julian assange supporters they preserved one hundred forty thousand pounds as a surety when he was back in december two thousand and ten but the judge said that it would be another couple of days before a decision was reached as to whether or not they get that money back now just to remind fears of the background to this case julian assange is fighting extradition to sweden where he's wanted for sexual assault allegations questioning the sexual assault allegations that process here in the u.k. fails and we then saw it in a very dramatic twist julian a stange claiming asylum seeking asylum from ecuador and he was he was granted that but the u.k. have refused so far to grant him safe passage and so the case continues now we heard today from vaughan smith who is the owner of the frontline club and he's also

housed dooley in a sound for a very long time is about thirteen months last year as julian assange is fighting his case in the u.k. he spoke on behalf of all nine people involved in this describing having met julian a songe in the past couple of days what julian assange had said to them he said that he's in good health in good spirits still but that essentially at this point this great no longer have any real influence over what julian assange does of course they put up the money at the time as a sort of guarantee that julian assange would comply with the conditions that the court has set it's not just them though that losing money on this at the moment the taxpayers are also expecting a huge bill to keep julian assange as this case this impasse continuing eleven thousand pounds of daily police protection surrounding that embassy so you know it is raising questions about that course and everyone very very much wants

a diplomatic headache to come to an end and so as we're seeing this case continue of course as we said the guys today who were in the court making that point it's an exceptional case they couldn't have seen it coming and they very much as everyone does want this diplomatic impasse resolved. sara furthur well the anger that swept through europe seem want to tally and businessmen literally rise above it or try to anyway in a protest. so. to vent his frustration through the vatican. where europe's debt might be heading also. russia's largest airline air float. and demands its head be dismissed more on this and much more after. it's perched atop a jar and the view from the scrubland stretches as far as the eye can see. for

live from moscow as bahraini government continues its crackdown on protesters a former journalist for c.n.n. claims bahrain is paying the network to get the coverage it needs amber lyon says a documentary depicting atrocities in the gulf kingdom which one prestigious awards was censored by the channel and never shown on c.n.n. international what happened to our. brain is paying c.n.n. to create content that shows bahrain in a favorable light even though c.n.n. says this content you know is editorially independent it doesn't. affect that well we've seen that with this documentary not airing and also with the constant struggle i had at c.n.n. to get coverage accurate bahrain coverage of the human rights abuses on air while i was there what c.n.n. is doing is they're essentially creating what some people have termed infomercials

for dictators there's by late every principle of journalistic ethics because we're supposed to be watchdogs on these governments we're not supposed to allow them to be paying customers as journalists we were able to sneak into some of the villages we were able to kind of dodge our minders and sneak into some of the villages and actually see these atrocities patients who'd run out of the hospitals that were shot up with birdshot ambulance drivers who were beaten and as we were heading back to these villages we were violently detained by security forces and brain about twenty masked men with machine guns who then try to erase all the video that they found and luckily my female producer and i were able to hide some disks in our broads and we were able to actually get out of the country with this content so you can imagine surprise when we got back to the u.s. and this content was airing on c.n.n. and right after that is when the phone calls started coming into the network complaining about me and trying to get my coverage off the air well while the

bahraini government pro-democracy protest is getting the latest incident police move to dispose of should. be. attention twenty three year old in. prison for taking part in. the protest for equality which erupted last view. on a website. austerity desperations literally drove one man up the wall today and to the top of one of the world's largest cathedral scaling the dome of st peter's basilica in the vatican restaurant oh noes federal government cuts and e.u. imposed policies meantime brussels is about vote on demanding more money for the e.u. budget next year even though unemployment at this highest ever level since the euro zone began and it will go down one place the course like greece which is being told by e.u. mandarins right now to curb spending on its own people that's been going on for

such a long time patrick young has been talking to us for a long time about this here is now the right of the executive director of investment consultancy devi advises patrick evening the international creditors as i said they're in greece again they go shape to get another austerity package but doubting this time of course the government can actually implement any of these cuts because they've got nowhere left to cut well the whole thing is completely and utterly out for i go it's a farce the greatest order unfortunately because what we have is you know the troika these people who come along and demand cuts they've been coming for the last several years every time they go away they think they've got a deal in the greek people to stick to it so this time around everybody's finally got to the point where they realize well they might make a deal they might not make it do it but actually we've got all these facts coming along ridiculous pieces of information grown pretty circuits being built at the greek hinterland with money the truth is the greek government is just out of control it is the ultimate vodka addict in

a pool of vodka. maybe recreation maybe recreation is the way out do you think we also hear that athens as well as trying to reduce his deficit these huge cuts is planning as well to build a multi-million euro formula one track yes that being decided well it's sensational happy having written for you know the bible of motor sport the weekly also sport many years ago actually qualified to talk x. and this is just absolutely insane and of. or screens should be promoting tourism but surely they should be promoting tourism and all of those beautiful enjoy the artifacts that come from the ancient greek civilization which was about the last time that they actually managed to help the economy in balance rather than sitting here and trying to build another incredible pillar of the eccleston empire formula one i'm all for motorists thing but i don't see why greek pensioners should be starving get a point in time when they lay one hundred million euros worth of tarmac for the formula one so it's a funny world patrick young writer executive director of investment consultancy devi advisor to leave it there but thank you. right right now let's switch this i

was business with dmitri and jobs numbers. and. that's why they're actually better than expected but that's not the official labor department reports that's coming out on thursday it's the a.d.p. dates to make the data processing which provides basically a kind of preview into the real thing and it's not one hundred sixty two thousand let's take a look at what's happening in the united states the dow and the nasdaq are happy about it as you can see over in europe the markets closed in positive territory also on that report with the banks driving frankfurt higher deutsche bank up more than two percent of the close in frankfurt and on the currencies market we're seeing the euro losing value slightly against the dollar that's after spain's prime minister said that the bailout is not imminent and the russian ruble also lost value against both currencies the r.t.s. and m i six had a bad day actually with the obvious dropping more than one percent that's on the

back of lower oil prices but the bank was higher as announced it's they're buying an insurance business next year now russia's leading airline air flights is suing its a base and home ports sheremetyevo now the carrier queues is the airport of ruining its reputation and once the head of should have made it to be exact their flood says an unexpected repair of the runway caused flight delays and cancellations and the problems are continuing. shouldn't. use today once again we had so many flights the lead this is not our fault we were not warned about the repair of the runway and we had already sold tickets as a result we've had to cancel more than sixty flights until mid october there's a report capacity decreased because of the construction work i'm not even speaking about the recent blackout and showed me to how command ever happen in a police of such importance we have to be competitive and cannot afford such mistakes. and as your business all right thanks for that

a couple minutes laura lester on the big pole and whether the computing giant as a nuff sleeve to keep fans happy interesting chat coming up capital account. looters that takes your breath away few tourists travel to these paul it's no prepackaged comfort but they joy of the wild is guaranteed if gagne's a zoology professor he works in the u.s. and travels to these remote areas in russia every summer as he says he confines untouched landscapes like this anywhere else in the world. we're going off the list below sea line. if i go in the wrong the wrong and surprise you you'll go straight to the water and so we did our plan to get closer to the sea lion and shake its flipper failed.

one animal whose par you definitely wouldn't want to shake here is the brown bear you can literally spot a grizzly here by every small river this sort of bears are so full that they have a very good sense of flow that we will pull through that we have to keep an eye a wind direction at. them and both up all that could be dangerous so we're going to go just to show what people require. and quiet we went but the wind was not on our side and the bear got away they're usually the first to avoid contact with humans but during spawning time when both people and bears go fishing people often shoot at them to scare them away and every year here in the region you hear about someone being killed by the predators but at the mugger down nature reserve where we are no one disturbs the bears peace and now

the local resident who hates his peace being disturbed here is the stallard sea eagle in has a wingspan of two and a half meters it ness only here in washington. far east because of the bundles of salmon and sea gulls which feed the giant bird in his studies focuses on birds so he took me to one of his favorite places here mara island it has the biggest colony of seagulls in the region. and the climb up was tough. but the prize missouri. there was no superior to here. coming here not just to get some for the beach here nothing is guaranteed you have to struggle to get your piece of bread nothing really oh you can fly on oprah did you have to rely on yourself to

back. up to be the fat. maybe fooled the wildlife here is the lack of visitors this was a banner but when you stand on top of this you just cantelupe wanting to share the beauty. good afternoon and welcome to capital account i'm lauren lyster here in washington d.c. these are your headlines for tuesday october second two thousand and twelve samsung vs out of all. the headphone jack is going to be on the bottom. predictors multiple ones but it didn't even need. and that was samsung's ad taking a stab at the apple i phone and its customers and in the patent war between the companies samsung has also hit back suing you could say is in retaliation to

a prior apple suit claiming the i phone five infringes on its patents now it's not the only one taking a stab at the consumer products giant it's been touted the largest most valuable public company of all time by some calculations we'll talk to analysts reggie middleton who apple's next development will be this i bubble. along as mortgage task force has finally won the new york attorney general is doing j.p. morgan alleging widespread fraud by its bear stearns unit in the sale of mortgage backed securities back before their around the financial crisis will discuss the impact and thousands of millionaire households in the u.s. collected unemployment insurance in two thousand and nine this is according to the congressional research service so who exactly counts as unemployed anyway but we're down with the bureau of labor statistics considers it and word of the day let's get to today's capital account.

measured by sheer market cap as many of you know apple set a record in august as the most valuable u.s. company in the world has ever seen now in a world where too big to fail has been singularly associated with the financial sector could a single tech and consumer products giant have a disproportionately visible effect on the larger us economy and if so do we all need to care about something like the i phone five launch or how with something like the i phone's new features compared to competitors well if so here's a quick glance. it goes from here.
