this is. welcome to the program. egypt's violent protests have now reached the presidential palace for the first time in a week of oil more than fifty people were injured and at least one was killed when thousands of demonstrators calling for president morsi as resignation clashed head on with police and protesters attacked the palace with. security forces then responded with tear gas and water cannons are true was there to witness the mayhem in cairo. really very fierce battles continue between protesters and security forces i personally witnessed a lot of police brutality there's been a criticism of the police in the ministry of interior off the footage was broadcast all the proof of a protester. beaten and dragged across the tarmac i saw this with my own eyes it

could just but i this balcony the man who did that picture and he was just into a. his trousers by his ankles was trying to face down and then a hit with truncheons before being taken off in a vehicle and later i also saw police gunned down an employee of a restaurant just off the frontline the man was trying to get home he said before the police officer armed with bird shot to shot him he fell to the ground a mistake taken by an ambulance this comes our protest is three moneths officers on the palace yesterday after which the security forces are replying to the excessive use of tear gas many people are condemning the police this morning saying this is another example of police brutality just making the security forces found one of the key demands the resolution something that president morsi must address there are still people on to her square and protest plans in the future opposition forces are not backing down there has been calls from both sides for dialogue the

president said and so awesome dialogue with the opposition forces ahmed el baradei one of the leaders of another salvation front said he would engage in dialogue on the condition and that would be the day the government would be to resign and national salvation government would take over and the constitution would be revoked the president himself has said he will not this in t.v. set preconditions we don't see this you see this kind of happening any time in the future so we expect the violence in the streets the protests across the country in the coming weeks i reporter bill true right now activist and journalist chandan he says developments in cairo ultimately show that nobody is in control there anymore egypt has been totally destabilized and remember the egyptian government is waiting for what the egyptians called the loan from sunday look there's a protest is a popular protest song about the world bank moment to egypt and all the west and newspapers some analysts are saying well egypt's not going to get but if this is

the destabilisation by its visit to the country but the thing. what who can control things in egypt now now a popular slogan of the arab spring which i call the arab sting for nato has been the fear has gone but perhaps the fear has gone but along with the fear so is any sense of security and nation building and state building so really can anyone control what's going on and this is this is rooted partly as well because of the trial against those who accused of being guilty author of the deaths at the football match so really it's also it's also you know openly said that nor can control anything in egypt are currently. well you can always check out our visa twitter feed for the latest on what's going on in cairo and also there you'll find updates from bell true of course the reporter we heard just a few moments ago. that washington's attempts to corner iran with sanctions against oil industry may have been undermined by the u.s.

itself the pentagon has admitted that it cannot verify where exactly the u.s. purchased over a billion dollars worth of fuel for its operations in afghanistan in recent years and this report to ati's got a chicken. the u.s. gives money to the afghan government to buy fuel for its forces now u.s. officials especially specter general for afghanistan reconstruction say they cannot verify that the fuel purchased for afghan security forces in recent years did not come from iran it could be their way of saying that it most probably did cover the wrong and it could mean that the u.s. has violated its own sanctions thereby letting us taxpayer dollars go to a few remain coffers those sanctions that the u.s. has put in place not only bar u.s. companies from doing business with iran but also punish third party countries for doing business with iran but no matter how many rounds of sanctions are in effect they were never watertight even though the european union under

a lot of pressure from washington stopped buying uranium oil you have a host of other countries that still do iran's biggest buyer now biggest buyers now are china india and japan and these countries are oil thirsty especially china so china imports of uranium oil india's imports of iranian crude were up thirty percent according to tanker arrival data western sanctions have it rains oil exports in two thousand and twelve leading to a very deep plunge in the iranian currency but continuous robust demand from its top buyers as well as the purchase of new tankers allow the red to unexpectedly boost exports late last year despite the sanctions the u.s. can't absolutely force those major economies especially china to stop buying from iran political and economic ramifications of such pressure would be significant but the u.s. government is trying their prompting those other countries to buy oil from washington's

allies saudis and katori so you could imagine how happy the gulf states are about this whole new business coming in but washington is resolute to put more pressure on other countries to put forward more threats like cutting them off from the u.s. banking system. so in many countries the situation starts to look more like blackmail than anything else i was regards to iran and blackmail is essentially what the us calls diplomacy which by the way is not working but washington acts to hold not only ran hostage to sanctions but the whole world which is of course creating more cash and. they're gone. and in the meantime a beef in the national iranian american council he says that washington are so addicted to punishing iran that it's ultimately forgotten why it's doing it in the first place what we need to remember is that the same sions are supposed to be. protecting us national security interests the problem is that we have lost sight of

what those sanctions are supposed to achieve the same ones have become sort of an interest unto themselves we've lost sight of the fact that sanctions are supposed to be sort of a tactical form of getting leverage over iran that is then used at the negotiating table to try to carve out a deal to try to you know have something to offer and give and take and they become a strategic objective unto themselves if you look at the last ten years. u.s. policy on iran we haven't actually achieved a whole lot we've done a lot of things in terms of we can in iran's economy and sort of ratcheting up the pressure but iran centrifuges are still still spinning we're on the precipice of a war and now with afghanistan we're facing these really tough questions about can we continue to be enemies with iran and not engaging with iran while we're trying to leave afghanistan in some sort of stable fashion. now the sanctions against iran and the country's leader mohamed withouten we did

a job are certainly inspiring our website cartoonist you can see right here behind me you can check out the latest sketches of dot com just find it in the online exclusive section. great britain is not great. to break away from the policies of attracting immigrants. even.

opening up. hundreds of thousands of them. as one official put it the negative ad campaign about britain would help to dispel the myth that the streets in the u.k. all paved with gold and the politicians certainly are worried and they've got it wrong in the past the previous year was the year of the olympics and politicians trump and trumpeting great britain and how london and britain is the best destination the world billions of pounds poured into advertising to really sell the u.k. but it seems that for immigrants potential immigrants from rumania and from bol garia the message is that britain isn't so great after all so a lot of people used to use that sort of was quite farcical the fact that the government is willing to trash its own image and to admit that there are problems with the economy in disarray that there's a housing crisis and that there are problems with schools and hospitals everyone's

been having a good old chuckle over the idea of a negative ad campaign and yes some people have actually said that it's quite insulting but remain ians them for vogue ariens but one newspaper has even suggested that people send in their own suggestions for what an anti britain poster would look like and the result has been really quite scathing and quite harsh to britain as a country we've got slogans that include u.k. yuck and come to britain and clean the toilets or even britain we haven't left ourselves because the public transport isn't running so people very sort of mocking at the same time but quite scathing about the country westminster is bound by law so they have to follow these rules and they have to allow anybody who wishes to come over in twenty fourteen to enter the country but a lot of citizens in the u.k. feel that it's insulting to those people and

a waste of money having advertised britain previously. foley boys are reporting right there and in the meantime romania is hitting back by tempting brits to come on over daily newspaper has launched its own campaign to show how good life is in romania for example it says that apparently iranian women half of the women there look like kate middleton the other half look like sister and this could be tempting to look out a draft beer or mania is less expensive than bottled water in england romania are you sure you really want to be advertising this also they serve more food groups some pie or friction chips also air traffic controllers have seen snow before they were rather on impressed of course romania known for its a black sea beaches like its neighboring bowl garia cheap real estate as well if indeed you're curious why not going to have a look you can see all the posters logged on our website r c dot com and i'll be back with more stories after this short break.

a window of opportunity to present this is a great french excess which militarily technically tactic leak certainly looks like let's be honest maybe it's his opportunity because clearly in the background there is considerable american assistance there now british troops coming in there talking about eight thousand african troops it's not going to be and further i may say the french are very reluctant to approach the algerian front you know too closely because algerian trials as you know have a long history with. bitterness civil war i think this may well be the last chance on house to claim a victory before it all becomes obviously an allied operation and i think that's probably the main reason. well more r t dot com as well as some a chilling stories are from orleans caught up in the french led conflict against islamist one family told r.t. how they were unable to bury their killed relative for days during the intervention

sweetness and light from the russian foreign minister one of those questions that he said russia wanted to put to their western partners was how could the west justify their quest for regime change in certain countries while turning a blind eye to acts of terror now this is just one of many times he either alluded to or mentioned by name the conflict in syria talking about acts of terror committed by the opposition troops opposition forces within syria there against the the army against civilians now he also went on to ask the question of who decides which state is a candidate for regime change it seems that some are wary some aren't looking at the ongoing situation in syria where it's been deemed that bashar al assad must step aside by foreign powers not once again reiterated today by the united states vice president joe biden in his address here in munich where is some states aren't considered candidates thinking more here about the gulf monarchies where we've also

seen protests in public uprising there for four minutes the laughter of spoke directly to those western powers when he talked about furthering international discussion saying that if well they kept their promises to speak to all sides in the syrian conflict that not conflict could well be over by now. reporting right now washington says it's still not clear who is responsible for a suicide bomb attack on its embassy in the turkish capital early reports suggested the blast that killed a security guard was carried out by a far left group opposed to u.s. influence in the region lawrence freeman from the executive intelligence review magazine says the attack was provoked. environment that's been created and the amount of dangerous individuals sprayed his whole area from syria and turkey and back and forth. treatment on the unsupported funded by obama in other countries the

west traces the change of for all kinds of activities and individuals to be active being you don't have to tell this per person to do this you just create the right environment right the ammunition and the sons and surly algy's take over so you have well armed well prepared trained terrorists on the border region we would turkey in syria probably now inside turkey and therefore is the potential for a violent terrorist action either against the united states and we are right now putting ourselves in a very very bad position allowing this to happen to the us government officials and facilities are into the r.c. world update now starting with officials of the headquarters of mexico's state oil company pemex they believe that a blast the o.t. three lives it was an accident i rescuers and search for anyone trapped under the rubble for almost twenty four hours currently one hundred twenty one way.

and a standoff between alabama police and a man holding a five year old boy hostage continues for a fourth day at the alleged kidnapper a sixty five year old retired trucker took the boy from a school bus off a shooting the driver of the child who has no known links to his captor is being held in an underground bunker. now one of a jerusalem's top football teams known for rejecting arab players has signed two new muslim players for the first time since i got the fans over sponsored with a vicious protest stand and see muslim slogans in support a slave reports. the games in there but the actions out here these really football team they told us of them is making headlines not for what it does on the pitch but what it does oafish the only leading team in the country never to have signed an arab player because of fan pressure they taught as a bastion of israel's political right if i am one other thing i am the don't love

that the enemy will be a player in my team or you could see. that that's not it was. chance like this we hate all arabs only the target of the racist croquet no it doesn't happen often but tonight's matches between d'etat jerusalem and a local israeli arab team the police are not taking any chances which is why these gates are for the jewish fans and the other side of the stadium is for the palestinian supporters now the match has just finished and as you see the bay taja recent supporters are walking out behind me but it will be another hour and a half if all the police give permission to the arab fans to leave the stadium but keeping the two sides apart does little to dispel the hatred in march last year hundreds of baitullah fans rampaged through jerusalem or after a game chanting death to the arabs and randomly attacking arab workers or bizarre boba they try to say that there are just

a few resources five to twenty people but that's not right racism is in the d.n.a. of the steam it's in their blood. we fetched is a football legend in israel he was the first arab to play for the israel national team and to represent the country at the olympic games. i remember playing against the steam their supporters cursed me because i'm an arab muslim if this is not rhys's and what is it that problem is about to get a whole lot bigger team owner russian israeli tycoon at a coyote guide imac recently announced his decision to hire two muslim players from chechnya and. it's no good they're doing it for nothing these players from chechnya are with the jewish people not with the team we have different values. while other countries have faced international sanctions for racist incitement by friends israel has so far voided such close scrutiny but fears are growing that the beautiful game there is slowly being turned into

a source of violence racism and hatred policy r.t. . seventeen years ago the soviet union finally claimed victory in starling ground it was one of the most devastating battles in history after two hundred days the red army beat the germans changed the direction of the entire second world war. as the story. the parade here in modern day volgograd is to mark the end of that terrible battle seventy years ago with a parade by troops the laying of wreaths from various delegations and the assembled crowds here remembering all those people that died there as many as two million the top estimates say there's also a little bit of control to see surrounding the name stalin graft the city is now called volgograd. but the city administration say that they want on certain special days to once again refer to it by its old name stalingrad which is

a controversial decision given its connection to that controversial figure stalin himself but as for this parade today this. it will forever have the connection the word stalin grad not just with this place but with what happened to him. seventy years ago the nazi war machine failed at stalingrad but here a reconstruction of the german surrender and dre is playing the part of friedrich powerless promoted the day before to field marshal by hitler in a bid to stop him capitulating. the bill when paul is realized that hitler wanted him to commit suicide he said he wouldn't give him such pleasure and he chose to live. for nazi germany this military disaster was the moment hitler's hubris really caught up with him for the soviet union it was at last a decisive victory over the invaders the ravitch so much of the country this

basement of stalingrad the largest department store had become palaces last headquarters soviet officers entered to find it packed with wounded starving and freezing german soldiers this is what had become of what had started out as the largest army the world had ever seen. the very much six army had surged up to the city in the summer of one nine hundred forty two hitler wanted to clear the way to the oil of the caucasus but stalin grad but first a sideshow became an object of obsession for both him and stalin fyodor fort for his very life battling house to house as the germans and their allies took ninety percent of the city the quest and i don't. read it was how the ball there was a re were firing and when we went to get water from it it was water and blood mixed . in november soviet commander of sprung

a huge trap cutting german forces off from their supply lines surrounding them inside the frozen city by the end of january it was all but over the city was a ruin only the few biggest buildings remained standing. fears budgets but you know i'm still in harbor far people it was very important because finally we stopped retreating offices in general started to learn how to win a stunning grant as many as two million people died in the battle their bodies are still being discovered today but although the red army and the soviet people didn't know it yet they had reached a turning point in the bloodiest war in human history tom barton party. i don't know just couple of minutes here and i did not in and breaking the sat.

rep or loopy fiasco actually caused a fiasco by singing a song highly critical of president obama ironically at a concert in honor of his second inauguration according to the huffington post he was thrown off stage by security for insulting the dear leader the sounds really bad like something out of one nine hundred eighty four were thugs come out of nowhere the second you say something out of line about the party. to the song loop it was singing had been going on for thirty minutes at that point this rant was more like a hip hop filibuster stopping the whole show and dragging on and on and on the so i think security just wanted to silence him in general not silence his anti obama opinions so you know loopy next time when you want to bring up obama's drone usage or total disregard for the constitution then keep it under three minutes and everything will be just fine but that's just my opinion.
