it was am. i was. online video for showing with limbs enforcing the old shari'a law guns in london threaten to escalate ethnic same ethnic tensions. to the question how when and why the government can track its citizens the f.b.i. responded with its. civil liberties groups demanding to know exactly how americans are being monitored to receive a blank reply leaving them ever more in the dark. and netanyahu is narrow when these really prime minister claims victory interests not general election but he's put his poor performance means tough political horse trading days ahead to form a cabinet. new

strong russia under around the world this is with me you know hello and welcome to the program tonight and had been arrested in the u.k. for being part of a vigilante group calling themselves muslim country for which harassed passes by video footage shows telling people to have entered in as lying in islamic era and should abate sharia law and first tells us even though a major east london mosque condemns the group it's an issue causing a lot of. an islamic vigilante group that's what they call themselves a small number of people who were going up to members of the public in areas of london confronting them saying that they were implementing shari'a law and that this was a muslim area and they were demanding people throw away the alcohol they were insulting to women telling them to cover up this got uploaded on cd tens of

thousands of people saw it the original video got to me force the police investigation started but once again you know that goes around so it's still on you tube right now and again tens of thousands of hits so a lot of concern here i think because obviously it's gone viral said speak a lot of people are saying this very threatening behavior from a small group of the certainly causing a lot of concern here that that's going to stir up tension so one of the people in the video said that this is c.k. it's not a miss america has no shari'a law but other see we've seen that this is a debate the really does inflaming tensions and causes a lot of control this thing and i think the muslim community core c.-k. really have come out to condemn what this small groups done and to try to distance themselves from of the east london mosque say that it was designed to stoke up tension so that there's very much an emphasis on distancing themselves from that type of behavior because certainly this is part of

a why did debate in the area of london where the police think that this video was filmed in east london is an area that see this argument come up a number of times over the past couple of years with fundamentalist leaks in these areas making a lot of noise about wanting to relaunch implemented in the end it is a very touchy subject for a lot of people as we said very threatening behavior in those videos and as a muslim community here in the case being you know very very trying to highlight is that this is a very small group but of course as it has gone around the internet a lot of people seeing this and say this small great taking these for threatening actions obviously having a much. why did impact. the u.s. has begun airlifting the french troops to extending support for the intervention by its nato ally it can certainly been based business are accused of helping those responsible for deadly hostage the in algeria and the tiger which was in response to the french operation and the morgan and west africa says paris has

underestimated the size of the fallout from its venture into mali this is a very strange and very diverse and very kind of collide coalition of people you have the hard core of the al-qaeda in the islamic magreb fighters now they are very very hardened fighters that have been out there for almost a decade they know the region very very well you know the desert is that absolute home you also have the rebels who basically decided to put their faith in a yeah don't use this islamist leader this strong man who's basically seduced a lot of to ari into joining his islamist cause now they'll also be at home they know the desert that's their territory their super desert fighters they specialize in this kind of hit and run guerrilla tactics so strike very fast and then they'll disappear into the desert possibly even over the borders and we know that the

attack on javelin this town about four hundred kilometers northeast of bamako was launched from across the border in march that will be a huge problem for the for the for the kind of france and its allies and they just say artie's piece of our last says guess whether intervention in mali is part of a bigger campaign against islam and what lessons could be learned from previous attempts to fight terror all that and more in cross talk on r.t. . what's the military intervention in mali still another example of the west's overall war against islam was there ever been one instance where an outside intervention in the name of fighting terrorism has ever produced peace stability and democracy and will the lessons of blowback ever be learned. jordanians choose a parliament in the first ball after arab spring uprisings resulted in the region

wide turbulence but as the brotherhood is going to be forward calling for protests separate jordan may well suffer the west is thought it had avoided. and wiki leaks post a series of massacres online claiming these suicidal internet schwantz was close to the whistle blowing web site. coming up later but now there was a lot of talk about democracy and individual freedoms in president obama's inaugural speech this week but it's the privacy of millions of americans that may be most a threat our civil liberties group in the uars has demanded to know exactly what techniques there be i.e. uses to track its own citizens but as i can now explains the reply raised more questions than answers. everybody knows that the f.b.i. uses all sorts of tracking devices on cars cell phones and whatnot everything that can carry g.p.s. the american civil liberties union filed the request under the freedom of

information act asking for the justice department to review the f.b.i.'s guidelines their internal memos as to how and under what circumstances they track people as of now there is no clear understanding among americans of when they will be subjected to tracking possibly for months at a time or whether the government will first get a warrant this is the justice department's response more than one hundred pages of completely redacted material except for the title so to the question how when and why the government can track its citizens the f.b.i. responded with this takes a lot of ink to print out something like this some artistic souls may think of the painting black square by we're certainly not sure of the artistic intentions of the u.s. justice department or the meanings they put into these black pages but for civil liberties advocates here this is what government secrecy looks like actually it was last month when president obama signed a bill that essentially allows the government to spy on anyone they want under some

kind of a general warrant as opposed to an individual warrant in other words it allows the national security agency to vacuum up as much private communication as possible with something like a promise on the authorities part to be really careful about when and how they look at it but civil liberties advocates argue that the bill of rights is not about the government's promises of good intentions but about legal guarantees so president obama may be very convincing when he talks about individual freedoms we heard the words in his inaugural speech this monday. but here is the f.b.i. version of that freedom on the managing added so twenty four seven news jay tucker to sil's says this secrecy surrounding government surveillance gives law enforcement too much power. open and free society the f.b.i. has to tell us what its procedures and techniques are simply that we can argue about them and then we have the opportunity to challenge them meant that maybe the courts say sure they're ok but that's only after they're challenged in court and

that are discussed openly if all we have to go on is the f.b.i. saying trust us that doesn't give us very much your we actually don't ask them they are snooping quite a bit i mean there's a lot of us there's over three hundred million americans so there's only so much that they can do at any given individual lest they have to target it but the fact is there's enormous power the government now has to surveil the population and if they want to they've given this as a power to exercise their surveillance techniques without very much in the way of controls or due process they can use the n.s.a. can go through street secret courts and get permission to spy on people with any public challenge you would have no way of knowing that you being spied on if you find out you're not allowed to reveal that information. the high profile internet freedom took his life at this month after he was prosecuted for alleged hacking could have had close links to weaken leaks they whistle blowing group came forward with surprise revelations on our schwartz on his twitter feed and on twitter feed we can legs it has published several statements addressing the late acts of us to

assess the so one of the tweets says schwartz communicate to the wood that we collect from that period and a functional several yes' and a strongly believed to be a source of information so the investigation into his experiences so him threatened with up to thirty five years behind bars and a few more in the case of he spoke exclusively to intent on top or no came dot com now fighting extradition to the u. was piracy charges so they found all the mega upload service on the back of internet freedom told the case which was was nothing but a point six. aaron schwartz i mean he stopped sopa with his efforts he stopped soap and he became a target a political target ok and that's why all these things happened to him there's no reasonable. cost behind the going after a young like that in the fashion that it's political. and you can see the full

little. this is a welcome back benyamin netanyahu has claimed victory and israel's a genuine action but his party has still suffered a major setback winning feel safer than expected and now netanyahu has they don't take this waiting political forces to join him and a combination point to ca has been holding about. we do have exit polls from the country's main media and these have positioned as was expected the country's prime minister benjamin netanyahu in a first position that is with his we could be a tame new party but as was not expected it seems as if this party has received form fewer voters than was originally anticipated netanyahu now meets to start

building a coalition he will need to secure a minimum of sixty one seats out of one hundred and twenty seated parliament if indeed he manages to get on board all the wife when parties when he will be able to reach this number they was a surprise showing in these initial exit polls and that was the position of the second party that is called there is a future it is headed by a former journalist who has become a politician it wasn't expected to do as well as it did do and it certainly is a party that has a centrist position yael appeared at the the name of this journalist this former journalist now he has indicated that he would be interested in joining a yahoo coalition but he has said that his first condition is that the religious need to join the army and the work force and this is something that the religious parties are not going to agree to it also says that another condition for him joining is for resumption of peace talks with the palestinians and again this is

going to be something that you're far right parties are certainly not going to agree to so netanyahu is going to have a difficult time trying to combine them with your more formal white religious orthodox parties and this might ultimately see him just relying on for want support and if indeed he goes this route or any is it to create possibly the most away when government in israel's history. and that had to make peace with a palestinian it is all the international community will be hoping for from the new israeli government but runs a buried editor at the palestine chronicle dot com says it's mentality and political well that are really blocking talks there is no peace process that hasn't been any peace process for years and most likely there would not be peace process under an attorney or under the mentality by which israel is governed in fact i think there is too much emphasis on netanyahu while in reality netanyahu is a reflection or an expression of a growing tendency of israel this is

a that is either oblivious to the peace process as in the centralists or the lift just and of course the ultra nationalist and the ultra orthodox that are fundamentally and essentially opposed to any compromises or any discussion with palestinians that will concede an inch of what they consider the rightful home or the historic home of the jewish people and another contentious acting the peace process and contributing to israel's international isolation is the expansion of jewish settlements but one man claims it wrong to think the matter is purely political and reached out to the settler community to prove his point filmmaker nimrod for his prime documentaries he's unorthodox the reality. my name is no more than israeli citizen living here among. you one housing prices of at all time high the thing is there is another one in jerusalem but i can also live among

our allies and i think i can get them much better deal with the wise over the. would like to see the flood to buy i'm here with some investors from england. we want to invest in this area because i'm hearing the property value might go up with one flat is one million shekels is. in the building that this whole new area called zero eight and you one begins after those heels despite a few haters in the us almost all these really political parties support the building and selling of charming flats on palestinian land the latest talk location he won east of jerusalem hello i'm here to show a new client wants to buy property in this area is a big one investor understand it's the only building currently built but if i can show him more. hills more outposts. and no

funny how those small actions had like international meaning. the moving of stones like monumentally. it's like messing with international law. this is the most disputed area you never notice it just because people told us. but he says it is like a good place to build a new flat you think they'll be like because my friends want to be like to buy something before we even constructed i was coming off. it says this is the fail stone being set for the new god willing area of the one facing the holy capital of his well i pay so much money for rent in london anyone in london and here anyone in the big city thing is comfortable it all starts here so beautiful all of us is ours bloody brilliant if you can look down and
