russia's stance the recovery process as a twenty year walsh was troll meteoroid blasted leaves twelve hundred people injured thousands of windows shattered and wreaks havoc in the country's nuclear hub. a delay in chuck hagel for new u.s. defense secretary confirmation which met an unprecedented republican opposition is seen as a push for a shell think is anti hawkish lives. and tired of being watched and t.c.c. to be activists in germany teaming up and take their fight against public surveillance into the own hands by destroying as many streets cameras as possible. hello and welcome to our c twenty following news live from moscow my name is our

top story now. and twenty year old national space agencies estimate obey explosive power of the meteorite which shattered over russia's year olds that left more than twelve hundred people injured and caused tens of millions of dollars worth of damage this can offer is out there at the center brings us the details how events unfolded it wasn't a bird or superman but something much brighter faster leads arms of war terrifying speak right like you show me across the sky you know blinding braden's sun it was a room where the skies were sun only lit up by a media were flying over reaching into reports believing the striking drew of smoke before vanishing just minutes later the city and the surrounding areas were literally rocked by a series of massive explosions. mili called. one of my teammates he lives in my building and i you know i couldn't get

through to him by phone in work so i was a little bit scared at that point so powerful it damaged buildings and shattered windows all across the city of dallas but. i was told that a plane crashed right into a building then we were told that a wall has been partly disloyal and metal structures inside of a bend by the blast wave it was very scary. many were able to film the unearthly tsunami and on a leader flooding the web with footage as rumors spread of what it might have been a stricken airplane a satellite that aboard it even the beginning of the end of the world in our t.v. documentary crew that was working in the area suddenly found themselves at the center of events in it but you put up that we saw a huge tail in the sky like from an airplane and then there was a bright fire and an explosion but the feeling was like there are three shattering thoughts a military jets may have crashed or that it was some manmade disaster and it was

a relief to find very typical natural phenomena anybody except over twelve hundred people were injured including over two hundred children mostly for pieces of shattered glass that one of the girls ran out to take pictures yes. and she was thrown in by the wave that came after this the flash and then we. my ears got blocked and the whole room you get got filled with dust just like like a fog it's estimated the media as we varied from ten to forty tons and its speed of around twenty miles per second it gave it a huge amount of energy and made it very difficult to detect you know that there are telescopes and networks operated by nasa in the u.s. and what's cosmos in russia and the european space agency others that are out there trying to detect the track asteroids but honestly there's a lot of there's hundreds of thousands and their biggest focus is on the really

large ones ones that are hundreds of meters in diameter or kilometers in diameter that could potentially you know do to the os what happened to the dinosaurs thankfully no one was killed this time and luckily the meteor didn't hit any industrial facilities civil nuclear sites. i must say all of this really looks like a scene from a science for a movie but it's really happened and it's another reminder that no matter how. advanced technology gets nowadays when it comes to nature often we can only watch helplessly and hope for the best you've got this going off towards the. central russia. and lower in smocks will cross from the school of earth and space exploration says this was a scientifically precious event meteor is an asteroid on a calm many of them come from the outer part of our solar system perturbations from the planet jupiter and other planets there's a huge. store of of the comets asteroids out outside the orbits of

jupiter and outside in fact the outer solar system some of them periodically get disturbed by the gravity of the inner planets and get sent inwards some of them are big balls of ice and become comets others are big balls of rock and the impact on mars and the earth and the moon and. what's fascinating is actually you could if you can collect some of this material some of it is primordial if we actually detect it and we can we can get it right after it falls we can actually measure material that hasn't been processed since the solar system formed four and have billion years ago so for scientists it's a fascinating event and i'm happy that people weren't killed by it but if some of that material can be recovered it will be incredibly interesting and important for scientists. and if you go to amazing photos of the exploding space rock as well as the david examples of how powerful it was comes out headline for that has led us updates footage i'm told comments from ex-pats.

let's move on now mulder know week of debates brainstorming and policy review all will now be needed following an unprecedented vote which still president obama's nominee for u.s. defense secretary failing to get an opposite pulled from the republicans or the results not a complete defeat for chuck hagel the delay may give his opponent small time to further spoil his chances and many in the us believe this is what was supposed to happen to a candidate who is not pro-war enough. those who blocked the vote on chuck hagel nomination this thursday know very well that he will eventually be confirmed as defense secretary there are enough votes in the senate to confirm him but the stalling of the vote together with the humiliating treatment that the

senators gave chuck hagel two weeks ago at his confirmation hearing this whole process is seen as a message all by itself those lawmakers showed that they could crush anyone who would allow themselves to dissent from washington's core foreign policy beliefs chuck hagel remarks at the confirmation hearing disappointed even his supporters during the hearing which to many seemed like an inclusion mr haygood had to backtrack on many of the statements he had made before including that war with iran should not be an option including his criticism of israel's actions and some other foreign policy views that he had expressed as a senator so throughout that long going to exhausting hearing mr haygood kept apologizing for much of the previous statements he had to take from previous positions he had taken and he bent backwards to show how quote unquote mainstream his views are in the senator's cape kept accusing him of not being again quote unquote mainstream enough to get the job chuck hagel swore to defend basically all of washington's foreign policy orthodoxies his confirmation process has been

humiliating in men. anyway isn't it demonstrated the state of u.s. foreign policy basically intolerant of an alternative vision alternative thought having said all that the president's decision to nominate chuck hagel of course knowing the positions chuck hagel had taken before was also seen as a message president obama had said previously that there was too much war talk going on and maybe by nominating chuck hagel he wanted to play down because too many people here in washington are too eager to talk war just during the confirmation hearing the word war was mentioned one hundred twenty times the word iran one hundred eight times by comparison of ghana's than the war that the u.s. is fighting right now just twenty six mentions of course those are just words but they may very well show how eager many many in washington are to discuss new wars without even having finished the old ones and paul craig roberts assistant secretary of the u.s. treasury and the president reagan things with chuck hagel both views on some global

players and how london came in trouble with the republican she had. made a mistake some years ago when he said that he was an american senator and israeli senator and this instant come up goes in the in the last presidential election in the united states the israeli prime minister. support to. move the peace process for a two and speeded president of the united states and a very demeaning way. and so the bombing now is answering back to the israeli prime minister by appointing a u.s. senator who did a very very rare thing and asserted his independence. the israeli government. the u.s. library of congress is working hard and finding a way every tweet ever sent everywhere in a huge archive. they're doing

a lot of other stuff that they should be doing like killing people across the world but you know there's only so much we can do and i think storing our tweets are kind of low on the priority but it's still important they should start doing the. coming up later newer harvest steps out of the streets of new york to find out what people think about the government holding on to their online messages. and attempts to study global economic troubles are being made at the g twenty gathering of financial had inbox cope with the looming currency was weighing heavily on their mind. and i quizzed groupies a thrashing a major rally in berlin on saturday against what it sees as a massive expansion of c.c.t.v. cameras in germany their movements opposition against the ever encroaching big brother turned from words to action long ago without becoming notorious for trashing street cameras all across the country on of it takes a look at whether the group's message makes them different from ordinary vandals.

if you ever get the feeling that someone is watching you whilst walking through the streets of the german capital there may be more to it than paranoia. the amount of sensitivity civilians in germany is on the rise and it's not as bad as in other countries for example of the u.k. there were millions of cameras installed but still the number is rising and that's worrying us. that increase has seen some berliners take quite drastic action and fight back against what they see as the invasion of their privacy the target for their fight the cameras themselves the phenomenon has even produced an online game cam over the rules are simple film yourself destroying c.c.t.v. cameras posted online and points are awarded for the amount of camera smashed as well as bonus points for creativity although many privacy campaign is uneasy this

more militants approach we're not a particular big fan of violence even if it's while it's against things that's a form of protest we do not support of the we support the message. is contest will culminate in a protest ahead of the european police congress in berlin law enforcers fear the movement and its methods will only rise in popularity and public damage i don't think it's it's a group that is committing these crimes i think these are some people from the left wing political corner they want others to compete with them to destroy cameras and what about allegations that the rise in c.c.t.v. coverage was turning berlin into an all well in state no i don't think so i think we have a strict law that the only personal belongings or the personal. the

ground you own can be protected by a camera you're not allowed to point the camera at a public street and so i don't think there's. big brother watching everybody or germany does. some very strict laws when it comes to personal image rights even global giants like google of how to censor the faces of anyone snapped on this street view service the advancements of things like smartphones the amount of pictures taken and uploaded to the web every day is sure to make it even more difficult for those who prefer to keep their anonymity the authorities deny that big brother is watching you in berlin however as the amount of c.c.t.v. in the city goes up it becomes increasingly difficult not to get caught on camera peter all over r.t. berlin. while being caught on camera is precisely what happened to a group of security guards the man suspected of having me on not now accused of

abusing thousands of foreign black as across germany details now for you totty dot com. and america is known as the land of free but online we have the story of one model who doesn't seem to cherish his freedom as much as others up to here robbed a bank just to get sent back to train. a tendency of mostly peaceful celebration has begun and leave the country months two years since the start of the uprising that ousted mama khadafi massive rallies were held in two major cities tripoli and benghazi with flag waving crowds marching through the streets a bomb exploded outside of gaza police station causing no injuries authorities said it was the work of criminals not political acts of its protests as are planning

demos against the current regime they claim they will be peaceful still this fear of violence may break out thousands of police and militia are in the streets and there have been reports of nato forces arriving in tripoli two years after the initial uprising the government is still struggling to keep armed groups under control as well as ease separatist moods in the east and south of the country and they are succeeding says dr abraham political analyst and professor at the university in amman. what we have seen over the last two years in libya is that this integration of any form of son throw control paving the way for the fragmentation of the country into three states at the same time there is around lawlessness in the country those an outgrowth of fundamentalism of the criminal that has spilled over into mali as we have seen over the last couple of months.

but more than two months and at the same time we have this but sort of. strife breaking of between the from militias in the country so yes a lot has changed but not for the better. the former los angeles called who killed for committed suicide in his last fight but why his former colleagues country and live in the first place and got opinion of the story coming up and if you meant. there's been another delve into how to deal with the prospect of currency wars but as yet the g twenty finance leaders are still to agree on the issue which is dragging the world's markets into a turmoil the gathering is taking place in the russian capital as the country gears up for a broader summit later this year on his accountant of has been following the talks here. a lot of conflicting statements have been said about this talk of the impending looming currency war which has led some folks some market watchers to be

quite confused as to what we'll actually see coming out of this g. twenty talks here in moscow now at the center of the whole controversy of crisis is japan it's doing its aggressive monetary and fiscal policies and has seen a weakening of the and so what this has resulted in this essentially a clash between the countries very little consensus we did hear from a russian finance minister. who has said that this is certainly an important issue that of currencies that is very much on the table but at the very same time we've seen other world leaders come up and say that you know what currency wars aren't really a threat they're trying to calm down the market to some have even questioned whether japan's actions constitute as a manipulation of the currency basically when a country is in the dire fiscal situation such as of course as we all know many countries are today like japan for instance is one option that a country house is to devalue its currency so making something like this

a twenty dollar bill worth less you can do that by a variety of means for example printing cash because why would you want to do that when you currency is worth less your manufactured goods are cheaper on the market and that gives you a temporary boost in the economy which could be pretty critical in tough times like this now what we've actually seen essentially the fear here is that when a country does that you're trading partner strike back they say hey we're going to lower the value of our currency and that sets off a currency war such as the one that we saw in the one nine hundred thirty s. which has led to the great depression now japan insists that it is simply trying to stimulate as kwame it's not doing anything to prompt a full scale war of course no country here wants to see that but the reason that we're seeing so much disagreement and so little consensus among the countries is that you know what for example the united states its policy isn't all different that. the fed in the us has been printing money like crazy so these developed

countries don't really see any incentive in i was leading japan in trying to really squeeze down of this currency manipulation issue because they don't want to mess around with their economies essentially so that is really the crux of the issue. so why some currency will toxics work for some and not fathers that's discussed by our financial gurus max keiser and stacy herbut so watch the food program at seven thirty g.m.t. but here's a preview. everybody is doing it venezuela devalued recently by over thirty percent in the u.k. the pound pound sterling has fallen by over ten percent against international currencies and yet their export market is up barely point one percent so it hasn't worked for them they showed up to a global currency war with their fear paper and it hasn't done anything for them you know if you show up to a gunfight with a knife chances are you're going to have your guts ripped shot dead in the street like a dog show up to

a currency war with paper like mervyn king or ben bernanke you know these other central bank loans and you'll also be eviscerated gunned down in the street by the gold vigilantes and that's a good thing. also see results have shown christopher dorner the foreman the sundress police officer who killed four including two of his colleagues committed suicide during a final shootout with sheriff deputies the captain it was barricaded in court fine during the find and dorner shot himself journalist to marx blumenthal believes the officers never intended to capture axe cop alive in the first place. audio transmissions that i was listening to you clearly indicate that they planned to burn him alive or as they said you deploy the burner or it's that audio transmissions of the police scanners also show that they carefully manage the fire to ensure that it completely consumed the cabin use in improving the basement

cracking emotionally and not professionally and were hell bent on revenge and this was clearly shown in not just the police scanner transmissions but in an open transmission that was broadcast on channel nine during the standoff in which two deputies were overheard screaming let's burn this m.f. or burn the m.f. they're referring to dorner the suspect. now for some other international news and brief excuse me at this hour in egypt police have clashed with protesters who are venting their anger at president mohammed morsi demonstrators hurled stars and fireballs before being dispersed with tear gas they accuse the government of trying to tighten its grip on power and using violence to clamp down on the opposition more than seventy people have been killed in protests against the government in recent weeks. the firebrand cleric to hear all country has held a massive rally against political corruption northeast of pakistan

a citizen of both canada and pakistan cowdery launched opposition launched a petition to reforms that are short election commission a move rejected by the supreme court has all been eyes through more major rallies for the coming week in the build up to the country's election expected this may. the tunisian prime minister has said negotiations on the formation of a technocrat government will start again next monday. bali threatens to resign if his plans for a new cabinet were not passed on friday but now says he'll wait until after the we can to make a decision on his political future on this and most recent instability sparked a huge protest and comes out of the assassination of a prominent left a politician earlier this month. and dozens of people have gathered and they've been is so well and capital caracas to celebrate the release of photos of the hospitalized president the pictures of charges on his two daughters were made public by the government on friday they are the first to be

released since his most recent visit to cuba for cancer treatment. there are now close to two hundred billion tweets stolen databases at the library of congress in the u.s. the government says it wants to keep a snapshot of life in the country is seen through online messages but some citizens are concerned it's just one more invasion of privacy the war half and it takes to the streets of new york to find out what people that think about the project. the library of congress announced that it's storing our tweet is this just another method of surveillance or is it a way of archiving the times this week let's talk about that did you know that our government is starting to store all of our tweets they're archiving them in the

library of congress not surprised you're not surprised by that now why not they're quite everything are you ok with that no absolutely not so what do we do about it you know i don't know because they're doing a lot of other stuff that they should be doing like killing people across the world but you know there's only so much we can do it i think so our tweets are kind of low on the priority but it's still important they should stop there and yeah it's just another way that they can surveil us right yeah that's what i think how would you feel about your government storing all those tweets that scares me the soul of that because i mean like you could tweak things i mean if i try it for about three years now and i kind of member watch would back them if they can find out and just kind of see what it was that's quite scary that's what our government's doing that now yeah isn't that crazy i don't think that's fair it's not fair have you ever tweeted something you might not want stored for all time usually a tweet recipes and food related things so i'd love it if a store it. may be great for generations to fail to reject

a recipe exactly do you think it's just another example of the government doing something idiotic i don't know maybe they got a good deal on hard drive space and they just need a photo i mean those are a surprise to me and though they try to facebook and they track everything you do a lot i mean they have the right so in the long as the invention was private there's doing this for your protection do you believe that you trust them to use it not as a way to surveil you or invade your privacy you know i believe they're mean what more can they do i mean if you're. stuff out there that you don't want to be out there that you shouldn't do with where you should just keep your private stuff so you should influence with and all over the place is going to get worse as we move into the future or are we going to figure out this privacy thing are has got worse because the mall pirates obviously the more they want to go i don't it comes between making weapons of stuff so obviously they want to know as much information about terrorism stuff so they're going to talk much more just to protect they're going to embed us with chips and you know everything we do yeah basically whether

or not you think the government storing our tweets is an invasion of privacy and the bottom line is you better think twice before you tweet because you never know who might be listening. and in a few minutes stay with us foss pesher a pool home to graze on is of european democracy. with. science technology innovation all the least of elements from around russia we've got the future covered.

too much juggling job. to hack work and get caught when lobbyists money and lawmakers are combined together that's where the problem of corruption comes from. i don't know the document's. keep up a smart look. there is also. another way behind that which is how to influence the institutions steer clear of provocations don't answer any question. came into the office and found banners hung around the office and lots of strange faces around so i said what's what's happening will somebody please tell me what's going on and they said

oh we should come to occupy your building. possibly they want to do a confrontation possibly they wanted me to ring up the police have the police come in through the mail but it didn't seem to be a good idea to learn the european way with brussels business. in the uk kristie it's one person one fold but in brussels business it's one euro one fault. people don't understand.
