governing and i think the way the political actor see it is that mubarak was not ruthless enough and did not sign down the freedoms enough to sustain his rule and this is what they're trying to remedy the you tube verdict comes in light of. you know many other decisions that clamp down on freedoms and it's no surprise that they will try to install the infrastructure necessary to clamp down on on various websites that they see as a threat to their rule one other thing we've seen as well is admins of facebook pages who are critical of the muslim brotherhood are being targeted and we've we're seeing more of these kind of clampdowns either in the physical realm and now they're moving on to doing it technically through you know through you tube and various other sites we can expect more of that. another country that still looking for stability following the arab spring is a tunisia it's witness the public through this week following the assassination of a key opposition figure on wednesday crowds of protesters fought the streets of the

capital tunis pinning the blame for. murder on the slime as government artie's maria for national is they with more forty eight year old lawyer shockley ability to criticize the islamist government for creating and really just state in tunisia and burying democracy now belied is dead but his ideas are not in the museum crees the country has been in crisis economic political and social the ruling troika how to chone says it's been a year and a home off but we didn't see any progress the death of all come right becomes the last june. anger moved to the streets with protesters demanding the authorities and they both to protect its citizens to leave. was i. was i'm crying because i believe was a symbol of dignity and a symbol of the defense of the country to see that this is a political assassination and that means the violence is not over. the interior

position was still strong. men did improve the people support and believe our party needs all of our revenue and they try to say face but don't have the choice they lost credibility and have no choice but to dissolve the government which is by de facto dissolved already. standing on the brink of a political crisis prime minister proposed to form a new cabinet consisting of neutral politicians his own party rejected the plan and cruz and anxiety over possible for the split and fears are growing that the political divisions may lead to even more victims always threaten to another guy from the opposition was attacked at the funerals i don't want to panic and ex-wives that person but there is a list of people those who fight for the revolutions principles liberty democracy dignity we're all in danger two years ago tunisia became the first nation to have an arab spring revolution that has been hailed as

a success story praised for the minimum of violence and turmoil but as we watch the country face a political implosion it may be only now that this crane that has been wound up tightly it's been sprung for three days clashes between police and protesters shook the country leaving many injured and cars burnt out across the city but it all finished as quickly as it started just hours later the capital looks empty and come and the loudest noise here at the moment is sound of birds twittering. jeezy. the capital tunis has also been gripped by a national strike and into the current turmoil which according to some experts is likely to be resolved is not going to be resolved anytime soon. to say it's ensuring a profound crisis a crisis of the credibility of the existing new arrangements for holding.

and any man should destroy creativity or the way in which they operate i think there are signs that usually disintegrate into some kind of civil war going to hopefully that won't happen and related to the popular will get and people say it's going to lose frankly c.u.z. won't be external support for example by the qatari government all the right fundamentalists and it remains to be seen whether we've got the present government to take any action against these terrorist groups. mali and rebels i gehring up for terror warfare while civilians are suffering and the worsening humanitarian crisis with supplies liking and most delivery response by the war we've got the story for you. and tracking you down at the u.k. parliament does considering new laws that would lead authorities pry into the

private internet communications of the british public. a champion of drawing strikes and barack obama's pick to head the cia john brennan facing his senate confirmation hearing this week the session started hard but it wasn't all makers who were the most vocal from the onset yes and catcalls erupted from the audience until the judge ordered the protesters to be removed lawmakers then poked and prodded brennan on torture cia shortcomings and targeted executions though seemingly reluctant to challenge him on his own says but given his performance at the senate activists and author david swanson is surprised he was nominated in the first place. to someone who was deemed unacceptable four years free v.s.p. closes his involvement in torture and rendition is now acceptable. closely engaged in a program of murder and the goodness of the murder outweighs the bad list of the torture recent polls found that well only twenty four percent of americans support killing

americans it's drones eighty three percent support killing nine americans with drones there is a clear bias you can do the math and see what percentage of americans are bigots or i dragged before us court charged with mass murder i could not say your honor i have a memo was drafted explaining why this is ok and a president should not be able to do that either but that seems to be where the debate is going. at those cia melways john brennan in order to iron out sensitive technicalities but already speculation is rife if the what direction he might take the cia but on the issue of drones as are his ganesan she can reports his confirmation could only broaden the horizon for america's on men feet. in the shadows know more drones are moving into the mainstream with drone makers than the u.s. military pushing to defend the killing machine drones are more properly titled remotely

piloted vehicles allow us to do is to project capability without projecting vulnerability and their revolutionizing warfare by allowing us to see and. from half a world away a major drone manufacturer lockheed martin has financed an hour long documentary on drones aired recently on u.s. public television counting the technological capabilities of the killing machine from trailers like this pilots of the predator and its larger cousin the reaper have killed thousands of individual since two thousand and one using remotely piloted aircraft contrary to popular belief actually provides the greatest degree of ethical oversight for their use and it's this young man in pakistan who would probably disagree several of his family members died at the remote hands of a grown up. more than a thousand other civilians were reportedly killed by u.s. drone strikes in pakistan and yemen we find ourselves murdering people in many

cases children with no evidence whatsoever that they're involved in any criminal or terrorist activity the numbers should not come as a surprise considering the broad definition the obama administration gives us to who should be on their kill list the leaked memo uncredited the sas nations on the us justice department suggest the us government can kill people even without evidence that they are actively plotting against america if you extend the logic or studio logic being proud by the white house now you come. live a few might say that we're in danger of going over we're getting very close to zero thought crimes that if somebody a u.s. citizen or otherwise is believed to be thinking something that could lead to actions against the united states then this illogical logic would present the idea that it would be ok for the president to order that that person be killed the spite the u.n. raising concerns about the legality of the use of drones the u.s.

is said to expand its remote control warfare setting up new drone bases across the world drama has redefined war there an intervention in libya he made the case that the war powers act in a private because there was no risk to american soldiers and so under that rationale he can expand the global war while in his state of the union address claiming that we don't need perpetual war for peace but it is perpetual war when you can drop bombs on any country and then claim that it's not working john brennan often referred to as the architect of the administration's drone war how it's the new opportunities for the u.s. to wage wars without risking american lives there's another reason the targeted strikes can be a wise choice to strategic consequences that inevitably come with the use of force . as we have seen deploying large armies abroad. our best offense all in all the u.s. now has around ten thousand drones in its fleet not all of them carry weapons of

course a lot of them are for surveillance both domestic and international there's a great push both from the bruised ration and the drone makers to present them as america's next best thing john brennan if confirmed will soon be at the helm of the cia and no one doubts that under him the program will expand even further in washington i'm going to go. well drawing to aren't the only thing about the cia causing controversy at the moment still ahead for you this hour thousands of americans awful to take lie detector tests to keep their jobs often having to answer very intimate questions. and abuse and neglect of the most vulnerable patients in a major u.k. hospital will bear the brunt of shoji care from health professionals when they need it most. twenty five hour marathon of talks snubs and haggling have left the e.u. with a new budget albeit one that's been described as perfect for nobody coming in at

nine hundred sixty billion euros it's the first time the block spending plan has been cut in its history the differences of opinion with visible along a job graphical divide with traditionally wealthier countries from the north led by britain calling for cuts in reflection of the continent a wide austerity but friends and poor e.u. states resist with spezza between opposing leaders threatening to undermine the talks and to robert oulds a jail the brogues a group think tank says it all leaves their disunity within the. we have seeing the limits of integration here we have different national interests clearly colliding and there is the situation was national governments are having to impose austerity across europe not just in the eurozone but also in britain because of course there's just not money available but of course there is also another issue to do with the budget and that's to that's to do with the fact that for eighteen years

now the european court of order to haven't been able to sign off awfully the accounts because a lot of the spending is goes on wasteful projects but of course more alarmingly it's also subject to a great deal of forth and corruption and that's why literally eighteen years the accounts haven't been fully signed off. well the deal in visions are sweeping cuts to a number of e.u. projects including integration and infrastructure but millions of euros are reportedly still allocated for so-called p.r. blitz against the blocs critics on social media websites euro skeptic nigel farage from the u.k. independence party says the project would violate one of the main principles of the european parliament. they decided that they got to train in house staff in the run up to the european elections of twenty fourteen train those people to go online to the facebook twitter other social media sites and to correct that's their word not

mine to correct any misapprehensions that might exist about the european union i have to say the fact that it's a pall of and that is doing this that is using taxpayers' money to do this says a lot about the institutions that are open about politics is the person is its image at all and he's the speaker in westminster he's the chairman of the parliaments around the world but he has all the rest of his staff are supposed to be neutral they're not surprised like any political position and the fact of the power decided it's going to spend money on the result of doing this shows you that frankly they're no better than a banana republic. predicted as of belt tightening and soviets charity cuz i have the irish tens of thousands of angry citizens contests in cities all across the country against the cards with some experts saying all government efforts to rein

in the crisis on in vain that is coming up. you can.

welcome back you're watching r.t. that could be a climb down on online privacy in the caveats of the government has its way a new jobs bill or snoopers charter as it's being dubbed would lead us forward is fact people's internet and mobile phone use it's in the name of national security but there they are serious concerns that it's a step too far executive director of the open rights group jim kill out says if the bills introduced the government could get its hands on any information and once

sleepers chances a bill that would allow the government to collect data about everybody online and data mining that data so it's not just about the guilty it is not just about records being kept it's not just about serious people serious criminals who need to be tracked is a right the potential of anybody in law enforcement to get hold of any information about anybody just about anything that you do would be detectable through the information trails you need we need the home office of publish detailed proposals so that we can see whether they're in any way workable what the damage would be and have a proper serious debate about those proposals. so are people right as single of these proposed laws as a serious invasion of privacy. it's completely absurd to think there should be this new form of communications that should somehow be exempt

a key member of russia's limp dick committee at fifty billion dollars the sochi games will be the most expensive in italy history they have cost ten times more than the last winter games in vancouver and ten billion dollars more than the flashy new summit games however the results can already be seen and they are impressive if you do take a quick look around you can see what money can buy at the center of the olympic park which has six pennies all within a stone's throw of each other to host the curling the skating and the ice hockey and this is the. and they cry on the bolshoi i stuck. the bass to reno was she strikes spectacular skating show it was part of the countdown celebrations and in a year's time it will how you speak and in the ice hockey final in d.c. meet subtropical like ation the cycle for thought she twenty fourteen is hot cool your top because they don't pick pockets than by the blacks in case there i'm cold

kilometers away from a french military base it came hours after a suicide bombing was prevented in the same day fears have been escalating throughout the week after islamic extremists leaders of vowed to keep up a guerrilla war against french backed local troops security is being tightened at military checkpoints to prevent new terror attacks the french army says its military operation is almost complete and it's preparing to hand over to a un peacekeeping force john a lot laptop from the paris institute of democracy and cooperation believes the intervention could be part of a wider campaign for western domination of africa. i think the two main factors in this are france's own desire to strengthen the her role on the international stage in particular beazer be her european partners and also the american strict egypt plans for africa it's important to know that america which strongly supports france

in this mali and intervention has plans for establishing a military presence and a military control over the whole of the african continent some people speculated and have used the phrase that this was america leading from behind that america decided to put forward its european allies to do as it were it's just like the securing of energy resources is one of the key factors behind many if not most political developments today and that's why i say that the of course the issue of hydrocarbons and uranium and other energy sources is a key and may even be the decisive factor. i hear the health care abuse scandal has erupted in the u.k. this week a public inquiry has found hundreds of patients suffered at the hands of health workers tell us with looking after them the british prime minister david cameron has officially apologized for the suffering caused but the issue only looks like growing artie's polywater reports from stafford hospital. my wife started

stafford in what she calls appalling circumstances but when she blew the whistle on the hospital's practice says she was faced with a cover up all the evidence was there that the hospital mid staffs was failing and yet the that was never shared with the public and i believe the same as in all the hospitals it's so much that a string of senior officials failed to take seriously data which showed the hospital significantly higher than average death rates relatives of over a thousand people never got to see them discharged from this hospital patients died needlessly off the suffering a catalogue of neglect left in there and. excrement dehydrated and without painkillers is the biggest scandal to hit the national health service in recent years but with budgets being slashed and red tape preoccupying hospital manages a person's health secretary is warning that there are little bits of stuff that all across the u.k.'s health system the results of the public inquiry into the

hospital's failings are expected to issue a damning verdict on the way the whole of the n.h.s. functions it's got to be made safer tomorrow because people can't continue to support the hospital's chief executive has said we're sorry that despite the progress that has been made there are still some instances of care which fall below that which we want to provide sorry might be too late but the tide of public anger swelling campaigners say it's time for westminster to overhaul britain's beleaguered health service before any more lives and needlessly lost. staff it. buckles regular close to the heart all of the syrian capital still ahead rebels and government forces pressure control of a vital supply road all gone off to almost a week of u.s. combat as the opposition says has been praying for the final assault on the seat of bashar assad.

agencies are asking employees and applicants intimate questions that extend way beyond the realm of national security probing matters such as sexual conduct financial matters and past personal relationships a woman was pressured to talk about her experience being molested as a child and when the polar bear for said that he refused to go on with the interrogation he alleges that he was pressured to go back and continue interrogating our scientists found that polygraphs aren't reliable enough to prevent innocent people from failing and deceptive candidates from passing i think it's important that the polygraph is not just. for screening it's an interrogation tool lisa ribicoff is an independent polygraph examiner and investigator who uses the polygraph program designed by homeland security she

contends that it's ninety eight percent accurate i do think that there are some questions pertaining to some emotional aspects and personal situations should not be included but i do understand why they're included on the basis of that the government needs to see how exactly what their breaking point is however applicants who are denied a coveted position after failing appalling. raph are prohibited from accessing the records of their interrogation and are often barred from contesting the results were filing complaints in federal court in two thousand and four the cia veteran who conducted lie detector interrogations for thirty one years failed his own screening there was absolutely no question in my mind the test was rigged it just was a terrible test sullivan lost his security clearance and was denied a job with a federal contracting agency he claims his examiner falsified the results possible retribution for solving his book detailing america's polygraph system the obama administration is now promising to draft

secretary of state hillary clinton recently testified to congress in regards to the attack on the us consulate was killed an american ambassador in benghazi libya during the testimony couldn't rather calmly said you know things like that the revolutions that sprang up during the arab spring like in libya where the events in bali have created instability and safe havens for terrorists and she made it clear that there is no doubt that the algerian terrorists had weapons from libya so the us secretary has basically admitted that the actions of the usa and nato have caused a mass instability that has allowed the seeds of terrorism to grow when the justification for most of the actions in the muslim world is to stop evil dictators who harbor terrorists or spread chatting to mock recy if libya would have been left alone algerian terrorists wouldn't be getting any weapons from it now this is like an

exterminator accidently or maybe on purpose actually feeding the roaches in your basements that there are ten times more of them and then saying that he has to keep working because he's the only one who can get rid of the roaches people like hillary clinton who support funding brutal jihad it's rebel groups to overthrow governments to somehow bring about stability and democracy are either dismally stupid or consciously running a very brutal con game but that's just my opinion. and mission creep. cretaceous free. free. free. free. free live live.
