a small number of people who were going up to members of the public in areas of london and 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 cause 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 one of the people in the video said that this is c.k. it's not a miss america as a shari'a law but obviously we've seen 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 have come out to condemn what this small groups done and to try and distance themselves from of the east london mosque saying 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 low down 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 groups 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. 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 the start threatening actions obviously having a much wider impact. on r.t.

dot com we're asking you will the actions of the so-called muslim patrol lead and here are the options for you to choose right here they are first one is a rise in religious tensions in the u.k. and also we have an increase in the muslim fundamentalism also reprisal in vigilantism from groups like the national front and the last one of the last option is growing discord in mixed london communities and let's now take a look at how you have been voting so far and right now most of you believe that there will be more discord in mixed communities there next comes a rise in religious tensions followed by fears of nationalist vigilantes and a small number of you think an increase in muslim fundamentalism is inevitable so do go to r.t. dot com and have your say if you still haven't. if

well obviously the conflict in syria is one of the key key issues talked about right from the start of this media conference and russia's foreign minister who are of standard church throughout the two years that the scandal has been going on the international community has failed to get you two sides to the negotiations table to put their weapons down and he said that it's mainly because of the one sided approach by most western states which only encourages the rebels to continue fighting they're not willing to compromise and the wall that's leading to even more bloodshed the minister also talked about another conflict clearly developing the friend so the military intervention in mali and he said that what's happening there right now could be viewed actually as a consequence to the international community communities approach to other conflicts in the region. just once it shows the french and the africans are now

fighting against the very people who were involved in the toppling of the gadhafi regime who were armed by our western partners to topple the gadhafi regime so far the international community has been working on a case by case basis and what we need is to put these developments into perspective for you because it's. of course not only about syria and mali the whole car the whole region according to the foreign minister is in fire with the terrorists trying to gain control of power in more and more countries and he said that one of the biggest problems so clearly is the lack of a unified approach from the international community we should leads to double standards and also leads to a lack of any constructive resort city a lot of also reminded of the iran's nuclear armed jacks and called from. all

very hard and 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 a year don't garley who's this islamist leader this strong man who's basically seduced a lot of to arik 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 later today and he's peaceful about asks his guests or whether intervention in mali is

part of a bigger campaign against islam and what lessons could be learned from previous attempts to fight terror or that home or in crosstalk you're now seeing. the western military intervention in mali still another example of the west's 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 learnt. some of the world's major decision makers are having their annual draw in this way ski resort of davos russia's prime minister dmitry medvedev is opening this year's world economic forum and there's a head over g. twenty summit hosted by russia next month and for more what's expected in davos let's now cross like u.k. to puberty from a business case are very nice to see you so what's on the table before him they

all right there was a lot of talk about democracy and individual freedoms in president obama's inaugural speech this week but it is the privacy of millions of americans that may be most a threat our civil liberties group in the u.s. has demanded to know exactly what techniques the f.b.i. uses to track its own citizens that is granted to try can now explains they were ply raised more questions than ours. 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 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 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 their freedom. internet freedom our surveys who took his life earlier this month after he was prosecuted for alleged to have king could have close links to weaken leaks they whistleblowing group came forward with surprise revelations on our shores and on its twitter feed we can legs it has published several statements suggesting the late activist actually assisted them so one of their twits says she was communicated with the weekly standard julia songe for several years and is strongly believed to be a source of their information so they rest a geisha into his activities as saw him as threatened with up to thirty five years behind bars and a for more on the case of ira shorts are he spoke exclusively to

hours been lossing for several hours and covered a wide range of issues from developments in syria and mali to moscow's relations with the west and these are live pictures right now for use trimming from the ministry of foreign affairs in central moscow listen in for a few minutes to what sergei level is saying right now. well the administration was just shrugging their shoulders of bush president is a telling situation for some because because we exactly as the case is with this rare sun collection we didn't see any with concrete genuine desire to do as a system. needs it it finds methods used the word it's loopers you. perspective to independent courts even we know that pretty well sometimes it works with the congress even the congress

with police and street eventually we knew but in that case we didn't see any such willingness to bomb which we didn't see any willingness to. do. to visit on their ranch for kids in montana we ask because we have come to know about it. accidentally from. american media. several dozens of the children leave their stay there by the lawsuit were. neglected by their parents and partly lost track of with our representatives representative from our ministry of foreign affairs requested the american administration to visit that ranch administration did nothing then to have a new dog of one inform them that they were just coming they came to montana came

to the gates to that range but they were just. drones out. so what we've got just what cases we know is just the top of the iceberg we started to study the system of adoption in the united states and while there is a huge number. they are all bona flighty adoptive parents. who granted the real family to our children there are also many cases which are quite vague and which is of utmost concern to us not so long ago i had to know and i will be going back into sergei lavrov is a big news conference over the next few hours and also can watch the conference for call for a string live on our website and you can go beyond talk to a call to listen to the whole thing right now i would call it break.

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 yet you'll appeared that the main of this journalist this former journalist now he has indicated that he would be interested in joining a mitten yahoo coalition but he has said that his first condition is that the religious need to join the army and the workforce 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 a far right parties are certainly not going to agree to so tiny are 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 white support and if indeed he goes this route or any is it to create possibly the most away when government in israel's history. to some other world news in brief this hour almost eighty russians who fled water on syria have arrived in moscow from lebanon two planes were sent to pick up the group of mainly women and children the foreign ministry and says the move is not part of a full scale evacuation and russia is not planning to conduct one the syrian conflict has lasted for two years now claiming at least sixty thousand lives according to u.n. estimates. twenty two year old man has been charged following a shooting at a community college in the u.s. the incident followed an argument between the alleged gunman and daughters to have been a student at least three people were injured and taken to hospital the incident comes
