broken windows in the home since we are in the year also it's not exactly summer here and overnight temperatures did drop a wee below zero although i thought he said that they've already managed to restore me appear around one third of the damage but it's not only about shattered glass a lots of old buildings were damaged as well like this factory there behind me where parts of the wall and roof just collapsed which is remarkable since we're around one hundred kilometers because there are sixty miles away from where the media or fell on friday the explosion was so powerful nasa says it was equal to around twenty new cars dropped on hiroshima thankfully these explosions caused by the media were not accompanied by lethal radioactivity for more what happened here on friday here's this report it wasn't a bird in the plane or superman but something much louder brighter faster many times or more terrifying this big bright lake hume shiny across the sky you know
4:03 am
blinding brighter than the sun it was around nine am when the skies were suddenly lit up by a meteor or flying over it yet is breaking into three parts or meeting a striking trail of smoke before vanishing just minutes later the city and the surrounding areas were literally rocked by a series of massive explosion. and i immediately called one of my teammates who 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 fall across the city of dallas the bottom of your family i was told that a plane crashed right into our building then we were told that a wall has been partly dislodged and metal structures inside were banned by the blast wave it was a very scary. many were able to film the on. if he's the nominee on leader of
4:04 am
wedding the web with footage as it were spread of what it might have been a stricken airplane a satellite that fell out of orbit even the beginning of the and the world and our t.v. documentary crew that was working in the area suddenly found themselves at the center of events 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 we thought a military jets may have crashed or that it was some manmade disaster it was a relief to find out it was a natural phenomena anyway except over twelve hundred people were injured including over two hundred children mostly from pieces of shattered glass not one of the girls ran out to take pictures yes. and she was thrown in by the wave that came after the the flash and then we. my ears got blocked and the whole room get got filled with dust just like like
4:05 am
a fog it's estimated the media as we need to 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 in advance that there are telescopes and networks operated by nasa in the u.s. and what's cosmos and 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 us what happened to the dinosaurs thankfully no one was killed this time and luckily the meteor didn't hit the facilities including several nuclear sites located in the region. and lawrence maxwell cries from this corner of earth and space exploration says this was a scientifically precious in fact. meteors and asteroids all many of them come from
4:06 am
the outer part of our solar system perturbations from the planet jupiter and other planets there's a huge. store of 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 in word 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 but you're all 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 but if but if some of that material can be recovered it will be incredibly interesting and important for scientists. and of course it got some amazing photos of the exploding space walk as
4:07 am
well as vivid examples of how powerful it was on our team dot com so do how to live for that as well as updates footage and comments from ex-pat. egypt's hardline islamist in creating members of diverting was the brotherhood policy have gathered in cairo for a rally calling for peace asked after three weeks of protests against the government which started on the second anniversary of the revolution that toppled mubarak they were writing have seen tear gas and water cannons used against protesters have been armed with by bombs more than seventy people have died in the clashes so fond of one more let's go. joined william and our author of myths and lies enjoyable was well you're very welcome to the program so what we are seeing now is basically a protest against crime says if the way to reach an agreement between the islamists
4:08 am
and our partners at this point at all i don't believe so what you had in egypt in the last two years is in effect a coup by twelve percent the actual number of eligible voters who voted for the sharia constitution and that's the muslim brotherhood and the majority of the egyptians have friends who are in egypt and report on this directly they are dead set against any kind of shari'a constitution they want to have their democracy they want to be able to breathe openly and worship god in their own way and not be told what to do now i think the interesting thing is what's happening in washington since the second obama term began hillary clinton was a strong supporter of the brotherhood option in egypt in tunisia and elsewhere she's now gone you have john kerry coming in the secretary of state worked in the the new secretary of defense and made certain statements that he retained certain
4:09 am
walk factions in washington and elsewhere and i think what we're seeing is on the obama have it that this entire muslim brotherhood experiment of the arab spring has turned out to be a catastrophe and they're pivoting their energies towards china and downgrading the support of groups like morsi so i think what's played up now to use the brotherhood is finished in egypt i don't see any way that there's going to be a reconciliation in the people the people smell that they sense that they feel that and that's what's driving. either the brotherhood steps down he's fully and respects the will majority or we're going to have a very bloody ugly mess and it michel so later is about a violent process started about three weeks ago and has claimed more than seventy lives is this the beginning of a new revolution that well the revolution is it is a word that's used very little. the question is what are the part structures what role will the military play it's the brotherhood as our. you know the
4:10 am
business factions and so forth want to roll the religious groups will play and that egypt has a strong christian coptic tradition and have so many different ethnic and religious groups and their thoughts are allowed to to share power peacefully that will be the site in fact i think about that there have been reports of pro muslim brotherhood groups attacking protesters even peaceful ones does this mean egypt is becoming a militia state and well i think you have a lot of rockets who are making making this kind of thing that hurt the cause or try to hurt the cause of the genuine democratic protest so that's to be expected but we shouldn't take where c.n.n. zooms its camera in to make opportunity shots in tahrir square and elsewhere violence so that we don't need to take that as a reality that c.n.n. structured on this is pretty pretty blah. and there's some anti-government groups have also been accused of resorting to violence and anneke is that really what they
4:11 am
need to do to make their voices heard at this point on is there any i don't know what it ought not to be. that's why i say i think the violence incidents that are blamed on at the government groups are most likely the police provocateurs trying to. paint the opposition black but i don't think that's the nature of the opposition there. and the vast majority are peaceful and they want peaceful change and i don't mean that all right thank you very much william and our author of next lines and oil was thank you very much and thank you. people and celebrate the anniversary of the uprising against gadhafi while the government fears a new one thousands of owned militias mind the streets of major cities despite activists assuring all rallies will remain peaceful. a faster more than
4:12 am
a week of debates brainstorming and policy revision all will now be needed following an unprecedented a vote which saw president obama's nominee for u.s. defense secretary failing to get enough support from the republicans their results not a complete defeat for chuck hagel the delay may give him to his opponents more time to further spoil his chances of getting on veteran is an antiwar activist and had previously clashed with republican lawmakers over his criticism of the jewish lobby in washington and this is exactly what landed him in trouble believes paul craig roberts has a secretary of the u.s. treasury under president reagan. she had. made a mistake some years ago when he said that he was an american so not an israeli senator and this can still come up because in the in the last presidential election in the united states the israeli prime minister. supported
4:13 am
the. move the peace process for the. president of the united states and a very demeaning way. and so a bomb in their eyes answering back to the israeli prime minister by appointing a u.s. senator who did a very very rare thing and asserted his independence. of the israeli government. the u.s. library of congress is working hard in finding a way every tweet ever sent everywhere and a huge archive. there 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 so our tweets are kind of low on the priority but it's still important that they should stop doing. so coming up later and it's that album to 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.
4:14 am
twenty gathering of financial hasn't scared the living currency was weighing heavy on their minds this and much more after a short break. we'll look at. technology innovation all the latest developments from around russia we've gone to huge earth covered. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else you hear or see some other part of it and realize everything you thought you knew you don't know i'm charging welcome to the big picture.
4:15 am
it's. this is us he welcome back then on of his group is 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 the movements opposition against the ever and crouching big brother turned from words to action long ago without becoming notorious for trashing street cameras all across the country. takes a look now at one of the groups message makes them different from ordinary bondo.
4:16 am
if you ever get the feeling that someone is watching you whilst walking through the streets of the german capital they may be more to it than paranoia. the amount of sensitivity civilians in germany is on the rise and it's not as bad yet as in other countries for example in 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
4:17 am
a particular big fan of while and even if it's one of those against things that's a form of protest we do not support of the ovi 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 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
4:18 am
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 should 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. . while being caught on camera is precisely what happened to a group of security guards the man suspected of having new nasa links alkies of abusing thousands of foreign workers across germany details for you on our website
4:19 am
dot com. also online america is known as the land of free but online we'll have the story of one man who doesn't seem to cherish his freedom as much as others as here robbed a bank just to get said back and back to jail. has been another delve into how to deal with the prospect of currency wars that as you get the g twenty finance leaders are still to agree on the issue which is dragging the world's markets into turmoil the gathering is taking place in the russian capital as the country gears up for a broader summit later this year on his list of cap and has been following the talks. 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 and crisis is japan it's doing its aggressive monetary and fiscal policies and has seen
4:20 am
a weakening of the and so what this has resulted in is 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 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 has 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 by printing cash because why would you want to do that when your 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
4:21 am
this now what we've actually seen the fear here is that when a country does that your 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 currency 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 u.s. has been printing money like crazy so these developed countries don't really see any incentive in isolating 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. and some currency will toxics
4:22 am
work for some and not for others that's discussed by all she's financial gurus max kaiser and stacey herbut watch the food program later today 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 feet 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 getting i've got stripped shot dead in the street like a dog show up to a currency war with paper like mervyn king. or these other central bank clowns and you'll also be eviscerated gunned down in the street by the gold vigilantes and that's a good thing. attends
4:23 am
yes mostly peaceful celebration has begun in libya as the country monks two years since the start of the uprising that ousted mom like a donkey massive rallies were held in two major cities tripoli and been gazi with flag waving crowds marching through the streets a bomb exploded outside of benghazi police station causing no injuries authorities said it was the work of criminals not political activists protest says are planning demos again become and they claim they will be peaceful still there's fear 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 on groups under control as well as separatist moves in the south of the country and they are succeeding says political analyst dr abraham underage. work we have seen over the last two years in libya is that this gruesome all. any form of central control paving the way for the
4:24 am
fragmentation of the country into three states at the same time there is around lawlessness in the country there's an outgrowth of fundamentalism of the criminal type that has spilled over into mali as we have seen over the last couple of months a little bit. more than two months and at the same time we have this but sort of. strife breaking out between the front militias and the country so yes a lot has changed but not for the better. there are now close to two hundred billion tweets stored in databases at the library of congress and the u.s. government says it wants to keep a snapshot of life in the country seen through online messages but some citizens are concerned it's just one more invasion of privacy though we harvest takes now to the streets of new york to find out what people that think about the project.
4:25 am
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 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 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 yes but i think how would you feel about your government storing all those tweets that scares me the soul of that because i
4:26 am
mean like you could tweak things i mean i've talked to it for about three years now and i kind of member watch it back then if they can find out and just kind of see what it was that's quite scary have you ever tweeted something that you might not want stored for all time usually a tweet recipes and food related things so i'd love it if a store. i mean those are really surprised the truck your facebook and they track everything you do a lot i mean they have the rights and they stay along as the invention was five it is 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 i mean what more can they do i mean if you know if you put stuff out do those you don't want to be out there that you shouldn't do with where you should just keep your private stuff to use your influence with and all over the place 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.
4:27 am
and that's our show breaking the breaking descent with abby knows. some countries want oil but that's kid stuff who needs oil when you could secure the world's largest supply of trucker darrow so-to located exclusively in sweden and meeting sweden for absolutely no logical reason is a possible you say well supreme commander of the swedish armed forces general sphere guru and son must have watched red dawn too many times because he thinks the
4:28 am
russians are a common general durance and declared that if invaded by russia sweden wouldn't be able to last a week against the onslaught therefore sweden must immediately join nato he said that currently it is not quite possible to invade sweden but due to the two thousand and eight war with georgia it is possible for russia to somehow push through established european borders bring their forces up to sweden gates putting the generals country in danger but guess what according to your own council of the european union georgia started the war so by that logic if the two thousand and one with georgia is the example of the future then don't kill russian peacekeeping troops and you'll have nothing to worry about but general goran so also made the point that president putin is rearming the russian army hinting at a threat well being heavily armed to defend yourself is a bad scary thing then joining up with nato seems to be pretty hypocritical if the people of sweden want to join nato well that is their choice but they shouldn't be tricked into having their taxpayers pay for their sons to die in. and stand based
4:29 am
on totally bogus arguments that make no sense but that's just my opinion. to live on one hundred thirty three bucks a month for food because you know how. i mean.
