greek unemployment hits a grim new hall i according to figures revealing record levels of people out of work in the eurozone that after french economic woes drove a man to set himself on fire. u.s. military wants those who carry out remote killings to take center stage giving out battle accolades to soldiers operating american drones. there's been no response from british police one week after a report revealed a shocking culture of neglect by hospital staff caused the deaths of hundreds of patients. and anti-government demonstrations to mark the two year anniversary of

the protest movement in bahrain reportedly resulted in the teenager's death. from the new center here in moscow this is r.t. with the online on the screen twenty four hours a day. one out of every four greeks including overhaul the country's young people are out of work that's according to the country's ages unemployment figures with the jobless rate more than double the european average former greek m.p. of the center left panhellenic socialist movement eva kaley says that the dire situation as a result of the failed economic rescue well it seems that it's getting worse not better this is the famous rescue of greece from the european union they say that thirty percent of on the climb and it means that while the. thousands of people

lose their jobs every day in greece this is starting to become a humanitarian crisis and i think it's something that no one expected to see in the european union you see extreme poverty you see people that tried to get a plate of food from the church we have two hundred fifty thousand people every day trying to get to the church to find food we are talking about the young people that they want to find a job in greece the trying to leave the country we're talking about people that don't have access to primary health services and i would reckon about things that no one expected to see it seems that the plan for growth is taking two margin too long to take place so something has to change i do believe that germany has stuck to this plan and doesn't want to admit the mistakes where we listen every day of

things that could have big been better for greece if the plan was better if they had made a better estimation about what would happen but this is something that's not only numbers it's one thousand people human beings in the european union that lose their jobs every day this is creating a human tire crisis inside the euro zone. meanwhile some of been driven to increasingly desperate measures due to the ongoing crisis across the continent a french man committed suicide by setting himself on fire on the job center in the city of norms forty three year old had been refused unemployment benefits in the country which is suffering its highest jobless rate for thirteen years. has the details but said it reports that he had actually set a letter to some journalists saying that he was going to do this this week so the police had said that they had set of surveillance outside that employment agency but they didn't manage to see it he was already on fire they said he had entered through a side street and therefore this tragedy had happened now the man did this after

finding out that he is no longer eligible for those unemployment benefits and this is not the first time it has happened in france in august we know that a fifty year old jobless man had done the same and this is a worrying sign for france for a country that has seen its unemployment rising for the past twenty months and this after a president had been elected on a campaign of jobs and growth so we haven't seen any improvements on this front so a lot has declared twenty thirteen as a battle for jobs he said that by the end of the year there would be he would be creating jobs for the french people however statistics show that by mid year the number is set to rise and let's not forget that more than three million french people this number does not include people who have quit the unemployment program because they simply have exhausted all their benefits similar to the case of the man who had just burgess self and also those young people who had never registered or those who were in part time jobs if we look at the trend we've seen a lot of suicides and attempted suicides in countries like greece one of the

hardest hit eurozone countries because of this eurozone crisis there's a general feeling of a still in the country a lot of people going out in protest we've also heard of stories of suicides in italy another hard hit country so if we're looking at the trend that's happening in europe we hope it does not continue but we could see. a lot more expressions of dissatisfaction. the pentagon wants those fighting us wars from afar firmly in the spotlight defense secretary leon panetta has announced the creation of a distinguished warfare medal it will be handed out to joystick wielding drone pilots who wage their battles without setting foot in combat zones or parties or in english to explain to my colleagues what it takes to get the award. so your signature you have a joystick and you point click and they get an award essentially that's all it takes to get it to get a medal which is supposed to rank higher than the bronze medal which is given out to people who actually perform combat duty but according to the pentagon criteria

i'm going to cite it here it will be recognizing a single act that directly affects the combat operation does not involve an act of valor and warrants that award higher than the bronze medal so instead of having to go to the front lawn or risk the extreme bloody violence there you can just sit in your recliner with a joystick and maybe a couple for example and just wage war from about a thousand miles away. perhaps there is a there perhaps there's a basic knowledge of the territory somewhere in the border between afghanistan and pakistan that's involved but let's compare it just sitting around basically just sitting at a base to doing something like something that was done by sergeant william stacey in two thousand and eleven he received a bronze medal a bronze a bronze star which is considered to rank below this medal that we're talking about now what he did was receiving fire along with his squad from ten or twelve and we fighters from five separate fighting positions though outnumbered stacy in his squad held back numerous flanking attempts and curate enemy grenades and large

caliber fire. was hailed for unquestionably saving the lives of his marines this is a citation from his award citation and he actually died in combat in january of two thousand and eleven so again this man apparently did a lot less than was a person sitting at an army base and pointing a mouse and clicking on their territory somewhere in the middle east. stores are brought in stores which as you say have now been. the main awarded with those they must have been praised for some very heroic deeds. you are talking about here yes the sergeant that was in question was actually doing something on the ground right now we're talking about drone strikes we're talking about a very. questionable by a lot of institutions specially human rights organizations that practice of protecting the united states and the world from terrorism as the pentagon the you know you don't own drone strikes. strikes where they target someone via satellite

and view this brilliant camera on the drone they never hit civilians they only hit militants right that is the official version but they even had they had to change that tune which was which they have been approved by them i mean the american officials the pentagon officials they stuck by that rhetoric for years until i think roughly two thousand and six when they had to acknowledge that yes indeed at least at the best half of the people who are being killed by the drone strikes are actually innocent bystanders in fact there has been a research done by various universities there was a study from from the new york university school of law as well as stanford university law school and they have said that roughly all of those killed only two percent are actually high importance targets that is those are the only two percent of people who are being killed are known terrorists ninety eight percent happen to be whoever it is very very disturbing numbers numbers are disturbing and i'm like to go back and remind you that now people who are doing this and who are basically

responsible for it are going to be awarded a medal that is going to rank higher than somebody who actually laid down his life in the line of duty. auntie's or negotiator with my colleague research a little earlier well there are no awards for cyber spying in the u.s. just yet but big brother is still watching the largest defense contractor in the u.s. develop software that can predict people's behavior by using social networks we report on that in a few minutes. security is tight in libya ahead of the second anniversary of the revolution that toppled the gadhafi regime there are growing calls for protests and the threat of possible street violence reports say italian arms and troops are arriving in tripoli well let's discuss it with paris based journalist barry lando he's closely following developments there in libya thousands are expected to take to the streets for this anniversary when it spark another wave of violence as we've seen in egypt after all

that's just been marking its second anniversary that there's talk of another revolution there so could it get pretty bad in libya i think it could it could get bad it's been very bad all along i mean there are these militias really if you had to be it disband the militias but revolution two years ago are still there strong much stronger than the national army of the country and there's an awful lot of arms floating around there. it's a very unsettled place two years after the after the revolution as is the case across most of the muslim world why is it still so unsettled i mean many western countries then to support the transition process off what happened in libya. well there are there to some extent i mean not in any huge numbers or with any huge amounts of paid i think the italians because there are a lot of traditional ties with italy and there are oil interests in that country as

well as that in some armored cars and some trainers but there's no there's no huge amount of foreign aid there and there's no indication that the libyans also want any large number of foreign troops there but did you see that you have a huge border which they know no means really whatsoever to patrol and you know there in paris we understand that a top libyan western officials have agreed a plan on choose day to try and improve security is that all just rhetoric or do they really mean i don't think it's rhetoric but i just think the task we're talking about is huge i think that the border you're talking about four or five thousand kilometers of border an awful lot of it will then there's sand. and how on earth you patrol something that how you could you know close it. is beyond me certainly it's beyond the capabilities of your european countries right now

remember they're struggling to do something with molly where you have maybe at most a couple of thousand rebels there. is a huge problem and it's far beyond your ability right now or i think the desire of europe to move in and help to any great extent let's talk more about what's happening in mali because there are reports that libyan military groups that were actually helped by the west during the opening have get daffy i'm now fighting against the french at a confusing and warning situation here i'm sure and these were troops a lot of the mercenaries who were mercenaries for gadhafi and were you know heavily armed by him. when he fell they moved libya came across the borders that went into mali and with their arms. which were fairly happy there it will take on the

mali army which is in a pretty pitiful shape and force france to suddenly have to try to come into mali and do something about it now on the other hand though it looks like they've been at least temporarily defeated or on the run some of the more radical islamic groups from maui. war and money are now trying to cross the border and go back to libya so that's one reason that they would like to close the borders to stop these radicals from coming back again right now they can move back and forth from libya to algeria it's a pretty well that will bear is it up to foreign intervention to sort this out or do you think countries themselves can deal with it what what's your prognosis you'll prediction for the future will this instability continue yes you know foreign intervention i think they have everyone's learned their lesson there and i think what you have right now if you look at a map from tunisia going all across north africa through the middle east central asia almost to the borders of china you have one huge strip of land one

country for no other in an uproar people could be serially this massive civil war going on egypt were two years afterwards are still chaos and the west the united states with the interest military budget in the word. is unable and unwilling really to do anything about it and yet many are saying that the french have an eye on the resources of mali and that there are many interest of course coming from china to develop all the resources available there in africa but whatever you say some say this is asset stripping that's old at least western countries want but isn't development and investment the way forward whether where it could achieve prosperity and stability after all a lot of the into. but if he comes from people who are disenfranchised you just have nothing else to do absolutely and i think that's what what's what's interesting or ironic about this whole thing is really that i think you'll find some bill largest investments hundreds of billions billions of dollars in this

region comes from the chinese who are putting in a lot of money in aid they are trying to establish connections with this part of the world obviously after resources but they're also bringing a lot of capital to move to these countries that don't have other sources of capital and the chinese have no cuts on the ground they have no army is there and they're basically getting a free ride from the the military. the west countries like france really interesting here thought barry thanks for joining us live here naughty my pleasure very monday thank you. still to come this hour clashes marked the second anniversary of the uprising in bahrain a teenager is killed in protests two years after the armrests first broke out but pro-democracy demands are still being ignored. plus a picture of bad health are still no action following an independent report into

hundreds of needless deaths in the u.k. hospital scandal coming up after this break. wealthy british style. markets. come to. find out what's really happening to the global economy with mike's for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune into kaiser report on

a. secret laboratory to mccurdy was able to build the most sophisticated robots which fortunately doesn't give a darn about anything tim's mission to teach creation and why it should care about humans and. this is why you should care only on the. news continues here or not here we come to shocking revelations of needless deaths in a british hospital there are still no signs of action the family and friends of hundreds of patients who died due to neglect according to a criminal action to be taken against those responsible and the former chief of another hospital says he was paid holiday a million pounds not to talk about a similar situation elsewhere. it's been following a scandal. but in the latest twist we've seen an n.h.s.

whistleblower come out and say that he was forced to quit after he'd raise concerns about issues that he said endangered patient safety but this latest revelation comes on the back of the francis report that we saw last week now that was looking into the scandal that happened at mit stuff the hospital where it's thought more than a thousand patients could have died between two thousand and five and two thousand and eight as a result of inhumane and degrading treatment almost no warrant food stuff and hospital in september of two cents tonight you just a disaster people you know to be. honest they're looking for one of. the boys that was left. shoes on the floor we've been there since breakfast time before that so we describe people not just. in the home seems. to be she had to go

through what she's going through the n.h.s. whistleblower he says that he was confronted with many of the same decisions and concerns that were raised at mit started to hospital now he was the head of one of the hospitals a united lincolnshire hospital he was facing many of the same problems he claims the government targets that he refused to meet the fear that it would endanger patient safety meant that he then had to question was subject to a so-called secret gag to keep him quiet of the whistleblower has spoken out gary hall could talk to the culture there and oppression and certainly it seems that a lot of these problems have been going on i think many many years now i'm joined by the head one of the members of the n.h.s. a political party no your political party that's been formed people within the health care profession and they're all very concerned about what's happening. in the n.h.s. right now when the mid staffordshire scandal was revealed very much the rhetoric

from the government was that this was an exceptional case that this was it not a one of it was particularly bad and yet we're seeing one of the hospitals being investigated and it seems that nothing shocks just keep on coming east surprised at this no i'm not surprised at this wild stuff the trip was particularly bad there i've always been in the n.h.s. while most of the care has been fantastic over the years in such a complicated organization and such a large organization there will be such incidents that have been for many years the real problem is that the n.h.s. and the government do not seem to be able to learn from the old inquiries that have being from thirty years ago the hospital advisory service would report and i think the same things are still going on now because of the chief executive of the n.h.s. david nicholson to resign have so far been resisted he says that he has nothing to

be as saying the of and that during his time presiding this is down to systematic failures so of course the people who are campaigning have been calling very hard for his resignation and say by he has resisted that. well to keep you updated online with more stories and videos at our t. dot com in addition to what you see here on screen now here's what's waiting for you there at the moment. real torture doesn't mean just physical pain find out on artie's website how arabic prisoners at guantanamo were driven out of their minds by the constant playing of heavy metal. plus canadian law enforcers allegedly use their power against those they're meant to protect an investigation claim some missing and abused indigenous girls and women were raped by mounted police more on our website.

in bahrain the two year anniversary of the anti regime uprising has been marred by more death and violence a teenager has reportedly been killed in clashes between police and protesters the demonstrators say the demands to end discrimination and release all political prisoners have not been met human rights activists are committed dad says that despite the recent steps to hold talks the path of reconciliation remains precarious. well not a lot of progress made in the last two years you know the king has assured the commission to monitor and document him reservations in the area but actually done he did not respect the recommendations i was on

a mission the human rights violations are fine and as the anniversary now i'm a lot of violations and excessive force. is required everywhere. shotgun has been used excessive being as part of stores we have our incentive working writers documented case where seventy or sixteen year old boy has to go to . the opposite she did go into the game and they said they wanted to set a mechanic for the company isn't that just. one of the and we believe that it's not the right time for such a dialogue when you still have. still. be committed every day people are not being allowed to have their fundamental human rights and a lot so gather up and quote that's not right these are such rights are not being. implemented by this by the. government and there is not real quiet or important. for the sort of dialogue we argue in the middle of

a political part. of the fleet and that is a very big security base for the united states and we need to make a sort of balance between between. between the security and the united states because. if they are not to the human rights violations. big brother may be watching every click you make on line the u.s. government is using new defense software able to predict your future behavior and locations in cyberspace however with the program only using data submitted voluntarily via social networks claims of privacy violations don't stay because he's going to check on reports. those of you who are using social networks will find this interesting the world's fifth largest defense contractor raytheon a multinational firm based in massachusetts came up with a software that can map out your life and even predict your moves your behavior based on the information that you provide on websites like facebook twitter or foursquare the guardian has obtained a video. where

a raytheon staffer explains and shows how it works the program is called raw it someone already branded it google for spice just a few clicks and it creates diagrams charts maps showing who you've communicated with most online your associations and relationships places where you check in most you know over twenty five million people use this app called foursquare to alert friends of their whereabouts so the program uses that and also the photos that people take on smartphones often have led to today and longitude details automatically imbedded in them so this riot program at a quick or two can analyze all that data and as the gentleman in the video claims it can roughly predict where to find you at a given time and potentially your behavior based on your interests so this firm that developed the software a major defense contractor has acknowledged that the technology was shared with the

u.s. government as part of a joint research and development effort to help build the national security system capable of analyzing quote unquote trillions of entities from cyber space that reminds me of the conversation that i had with william binney a mathematician a spy software expert who had worked for the national security agency for decades and who told us that the government is spying on people on a much larger scale and they're building social networks is part of it take a listen they were building social networks. who who is communicating and with whom inside this country so that your entire social network of everybody there are u.s. citizen was being compiled. over time so they're taking from one company alone or roughly three hundred twenty million records a day. that's over time that that's probably cumulated up to close to twenty trillion over the years mr binney blew the whistle on this n.s.a. program saying it is a blatant violation of the constitution but with this riot software one can argue

that they use the information that individuals have already chosen to make public they put it out there and most people know that privacy safeguards that for example facebook provides don't hold water really and yet people choose to share so if you don't want someone to be able to map out your entire life and to be able to potentially predict your behavior stop checking in everywhere and turn off location services on your phone or maybe you don't want that in that case no worries. some other stories from around the world korean experts say they failed to detect any signs of radiation after north korea's nuclear test so far no analysis has failed to find evidence that any uranium based device was used and that hasn't stopped south korea from unveiling a cruise missile which it says is capable of hitting even the office of north korea's leader three months ago we self reached a deal with washington to extend its ballistic missile range. one of the world's most celebrated sportsman oscar pistorius has been charged with murder after his
