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 is no she realized but obviously we seeing that this is a debate the really does inflame tensions and causes a lot of control this thing and i think the muslim community core c.-k. really has come out to condemn what this small groups done and to try to distance themselves from of the east london mosque saying that it was designed to stoke up tensions so that there's very much an emphasis on distancing themselves from that
1:03 am
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 the 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 flag threatening actions obviously having a much. why did impact the u.s. has begun airlifting the french troops to mali extending support for the intervention by its nato ally it comes as a libyan based islam is sarah accused of helping those responsible for a deadly hostage siege in algeria and attack which was in response to the french
1:04 am
operation and andy morgan an expert on the 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 it's got to listen to people you have the hardcore of the al qaeda in the islamic magreb fighters now they are very very hardened fighters but they've 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 fate in 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 soup doesn't 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
1:05 am
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 later today and actually later next hour about lost his gas the wedding to mention 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 or not. it's the worst military intervention in mali still another example of the worst overall war against islam has it ever been one instance where an outside intervention in the name of fighting terrorism has ever produced peace stability and democracy and with the lessons of blowback ever be learned. coming up next the jordanians choose
1:06 am
a parliament in the first poor have to arab spring uprisings resulted in a region while turbulence but as the muslim brotherhood is boycott the whole and calling for protests separate jordan may well suffer the unrest it folded aborted. and we can be exposed to a series of messages online claiming the so subtle internet activist irish walls was close to the whistle blowing web site. there was a lot of talk about democracy and individual freedoms in president obama's inaugural speech this week but as the privacy of millions of americans that may be most at threat a civil liberties group in the u.s. has demanded to know exactly what techniques they're the i uses to track its own citizens but is. not 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
1:07 am
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 blacks where live each 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
1:08 am
kind of a general warrant as opposed to an individual word 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 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. the monitoring and it's twenty four seven new j.d. to so says the secrecy surrounding government surveillance gives new and forstmann too much power. open and free society the f.b.i. has to tell us what its procedures and techniques are so with 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
1:09 am
other 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 it's 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 snooping they can do at any given individual less they have your target 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 right now the high profile internet freedom took his life earlier this month after he was prosecuted for alleged hacking could have close links to we can expect the whistle blowing group came forward with surprise revelations on schwarz and on its twitter feed we can exert has published
1:10 am
a federal statement suggesting the late activist actually assisted when and while that twit says that trolls communicated with the we can make phone that julian assange for several years and they also believe that he used to be the source of information so the investigation into his ex has his a saw him a threatened with up to thirty five years behind bars and for more on the case of irish with spoke exclusively to internet entrepreneur came dot com finding expedition to the us of a piracy challenges he's the founder of the mega upload and a magazine says on the back of internet freedom told us so they traced for was nothing but politics. aaron schwartz i mean he's stopped sopa with his efforts he stops open 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
1:11 am
a young like that in the fashion that it's political. and you can see the full interview as it came dot com here when i see this day in i did most his breaking the set and all back with more stories for you right. well. out of sight but still on our minds radiation from the still exceeds the norm let's try to live smarter with smartphones you never know what some people are hiding things can be sure to prove down to the molecular level learned that what the doctor ordered is often based on secrets under our skin let the shine the light on the good in the world. we've got the future covered.
1:12 am
thank. you. you're watching r.t. live from moscow they have been netanyahu has claimed a victory in the adjoining election but his party has still suffered a major setback winning fewer cs than expected are now netanyahu as they don't entire school persuading political forces to join him in a coalition policy explains now the election results. these have again positioned
1:13 am
as was expected the country's prime minister benjamin netanyahu in a first position that is with his could be a tamer party but as was not expected it seems as if this party has received soft fewer voters than was originally anticipated and i'm not on yahoo now needs 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 why when parties then 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 remains of this journalist this former journalist now he has indicated that he would be interested in joining
1:14 am
a mitten 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 he 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 not only are this 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 white support and if indeed he goes this route or any is it to create possibly the most right wing government in israel's history. and efforts to make peace with the palestinians as all the international community will be hoping for from the news really government but ramsey beirut at the palestine chronicle dot com so that mentality and political well that are really blocking talks. there is no peace
1:15 am
process there 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 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 nationalists and the 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 issue affecting the peace process and contributing to israel's international isolation is the expansion of true settlements but one man claims that long to thing they might is purely political and reached out to the settler coming into to prove his point film maker
