if you've just joined us everyone welcome to you it's eleven am here in moscow you're live with us on r.t. the people of pakistan a very crucial turning point in the country's young democracy but a there's already been bloodshed at least nine people dead in a twin bombing on a political party office in karachi continuing the wave of the president and violence during the election campaign you see caffein off has a story. turbulent dramatic and unpredictable that is how many here have described pockets on the general election campaign in a country that has spent most of its sixty six years under military rule is seen as a milestone with thirty five million new voters more female candidates more polling stations and more observers than ever before but also more violence now pakistan's military has dispatched thousands of troops to polling stations in order to prevent

militants from disrupting the vote but the pakistani taliban has threatened to carry out widespread attacks today including suicide bombings saying that it quote opposes the infidel system of democracy here already more than one hundred people have been killed in attacks by the taliban and other groups in the past four weeks to add to the anxiety unidentified gunmen had kidnapped the son of a former prime minister use of golani on thursday his whereabouts are still unknown now despite the violence this vote will mark the first democratic transfer of power in pockets don that hasn't been preempted by a military coup of the candidates the pakistani people's party is campaigning to win a second term although its record is questionable the government is still plagued by a growing extremism sectarian violence and demick corruption as well as a broken economy now the main opposition comes from the party of former prime minister nawaz sharif who looks set to win the most number of seats this could mean a return to power fourteen years after he was ousted in

a military coup he is advocating free market reform and economic growth as a way to sort of tackle pakistan's political problems he's also said that pakistan should reconsider its support for the u.s. war on terror and has suggested that negotiations with the taliban should has to take place on his heels of course is iran on the brigadier turned politician and his party had boycotted the last election but he's made significant gains especially among the youth voters he is calling for an end to corruption and drone strikes as well as an end to a reliance on western aid of course he was injured earlier this week. and there are some thoughts that perhaps those injuries could boost support for him but the optimism in pakistan has been clouded by worries that none of the major parties will get a clear leader which raises the prospect of a fragmented parliament and could lead to weeks of fighting in order to form a coalition government of course the bigger question still remains will any of the candidates or party be able to tackle pakistan's witch's brew of problems the economy has crashed unemployment is soaring fuel is in short supply while there is

an excess of violence whoever of the wins this election will certainly have a hard time ahead. this is tweeting updates from pakistan during its historic election she says the mobile phones are banned from polling stations for fear of suicide bombers she's also placing pictures as a supporters of the main contenders at the ballot now put saying and us drone strikes was a major slogan on pakistan's election campaign trail that's right so were recently declared illegal by pakistan's high court antiwar activists eugene puryear believes frustration with america's policy is reaching reaching a tipping point i think it's a message that certainly will be considered across the atlantic it's a sign of the growing opposition inside of pakistan and to a lesser degree in yemen and in fact even inside of the united states against the u.s. drone policy and certainly to have such a high court say the u.s. drone strikes should end immediately just continues to fuel to the fire that is

raging around the world about this secretive illegal and criminal campaign being waged by the united states government now obviously they have no intention of stopping their drone campaign but certainly i think this has to be. an item of interest for them. we want to know your verdict on the targeted killings by an unmanned you was a craft in pakistan right before our let's take a load the absolute majority of you says that these are war crimes that seventy nine percent for the rest nine percent believe the attacks were on men to produce mixed results but if the cheapest way for the pakistani authorities to kill militants like you feel i'll convince that nine percent seven percent that the there's no other option there to fight extremism in remote areas and there remained say the strikes are fundamentally justified but need to be more precise argy dot com is where you can have your say.

news today is once again. these are the images the world is seeing from the streets of canada. showing operation to rule the day. and afghanistan with a nato pullout in twenty fourteen won't be the end of the story for america's military presence phyllis bennis who's a middle east and un issues activist believes that keeping a foothold in the volatile state is crucial for washington we know that the agreement signed between the u.s. and afghanistan allows for some number of u.s. troops to remain after the end of two thousand and fourteen the numbers have varied there's been estimates of as low as eight thousand and as many as twenty two thousand that the obama administration would like to keep in afghanistan after the

raid the withdrawal of so-called combat troops this has everything to do with the neighborhood where afghanistan is located afghanistan doesn't have all on its own but it has a large territory in the midst of a very crucial neighborhood in terms of oil and in terms of the expansion of power the u.s. wanted for example to keep permanent bases in iraq that it could use as a base from which it could attack iran the iraqis said no the afghans will be asked the same thing will they allow those bases even if it's only nine of them to be used potentially to attack other countries in the neighborhood that's one of the things the u.s. is very eager for on a permanent basis it's not so much about the immediacy of the taliban everyone knows that the presence of u.s. troops in afghanistan is making it much more difficult not easier for there to be serious peace negotiations between the various factions in afghanistan whether it be the taliban whether it be the afghan government whether it be a host of other factions that are all competing for power. russia and the u.k.

have agreed to renew limited cooperation between this security services up to seventy a lot but the main focus of talks between president putin and prime minister cameron and the russian result of sortie was the escalating crisis in syria while the two leaders stress that they still default on how to bring about peace they did cement agreement on common goals both moscow in london when the bloodshed to end and a unified syrian people to choose their new government while when you being free from the violent extremism and international conference on syria is expected later this month the bagley it was no mention in the sourcing meeting of britain's a strong support for the rebels all its intention to start directly arming them political writer john why does the west is desperate to push its own interests in the conflict. we know to see the syrian national army enjoying some significant success in the last few weeks in thinking back rebel held areas of the country and

i think this is deduced. actually in washington and london which is trying to become a bit insulting to fly to russia to get into the conflict is not we they were hoping to destroy the assad regime we think of the axis of resistance in the region comprising city of hezbollah are and iran and syria not working because politically of russia's political opposition to western military intervention but let's be clear the west is already intervening militarily through the gulf states seventy quid talk to see. jordan funneling weapons funneling money into the rebels even saw the city national army is mounted in control of significant part of the country and managing to enjoy some success here on the ground there's no doubt that despite the propaganda campaign being waged against this out if you still enjoys significant support within syria itself and its key. the u.s.

has put its military forces in europe on alert for escalating tensions in libya washington and the u.k. have already pulled some of their diplomatic staff from the country fearing an outbreak of violence the latest wave of unrest was sparked by a new law barring gadhafi era officials from taking off some to militia finds is that latest seized to ministry buildings in the capital demanding the resignation of the country's prime minister splinter groups involvements have been calling for the premier's dismissal international relations professor mother ellen says the western powers who helped the gadhafi are responsible for the prolonged to turmoil . we're seeing is deep divisions among the libyan revolutionaries who britain and other nato countries supported there's a power struggle over who should control the libyan state and control libya's oil and gas if colonel gadhafi had suppressed still positions him when it was open

streets and lost two thousand of them also be hundreds of people would have died or perhaps as many as thirty thousand have died since and the country is in in this state to disorder uncertainty and life for most libyans is worse than it was on the congo her of course kind of the girl whose regime was supposed the western countries to be the. anything must be russia we were told well i've heard say we see that it's not necessarily so clear after all they all mean libya what current situation were armed groups came to power and seven have combination and there are of course. groups who may have been welcoming nato bombers but hohenheim quite serious and he wants to muslim fundamentalist groups who are sending parts also to syria so they don't necessarily the continued presence of western embassies the british french or the americans as being wholly something about seeing in a labor of tube as they see libya. telling countries to keep cutting baggage

a problem with this same thing it was fixed in two thousand and eleven they went up with the idea to top it off and then periodically top off this ammonia leak as they needed but then it developed more problems pretty rapidly they did a spacewalk they fix the problem there's no idea now they don't know if this current problem is still part of the same problem or if it's a different problem with the same system. there's a race on to be there's a race on to be a red planet pioneer over seventy eight thousand people have applied for a one ticket to be among the phrase he wanted to settle on mars with plans to start pulling ization twenty twenty three more of that online class also. the biggest on the worst five words ride in the world might be the usa you report online how the government is taking a page out of his books in the relentless white stuff. and the night of the ophrah that ended up more e.r.

of all some kind of psychological game they're trying to play with the markets and we could probably get large. that. being said that's also been quite clear that all the countries that came into the danger zone eventually had to. which is something national governments don't like because obviously to at least a certain degree they have two hands or two and two day two foreign powers be the european central bank to your appreciate you being commissioned the i.m.f. or the treaty together in the famous troika. at the other end of the eaves well scale of germany's got problems of its own immigration is at a twenty year high as a financial quagmire of many you state the fuels of the flow of people escaping problems at home our correspondent in berlin peter all of us some germans what they

hear that when i see that my friend of mine of relative of mine is already in bali and shows we value of facebook how he's living then i would say oh well i go to bernie and as soon as possible immigration here is a twenty year high with a further two million expected to arrive within the next three years along with traditional settlers from turkey the bulk of that number will come from within in sight the e.u. as the jobless countries like spain and greece look for better opportunities in the much wealthy in north as the mediterranean situation worsens wealthier countries like germany are a magnet to provide work for their fellow e.u. citizens but even those who weren't even born in germany worry about the influx. i came here in one thousand nine hundred four but now there are so many immigrants

from germany who are not working not doing anything this leads to problems they live better than those who work but those in the turkish community insist it's not easy. sometimes having immigrant status is not stickle to get a good job which leads to a lack of prospects and in some cases people turn to crime but this is not the majority how to handle surging immigration numbers or even the perception that they're draining society is going to prove harder for leaders to. there's a general election here just five months. early. more world news now and then a retrial of egypt's former president hosni mubarak is due to begin go along with his interior minister and security chiefs are to face court for their part of the death of anti-government protesters and twenty eleven egypt's former leader receives a life sentence loss soon but it was granted a retrial in general because of a number of trial irregularities mubarak was ousted as president probably twenty

more than two thousand people. the united states has warned israel that its plans to build more settlements in the west bank counterproductive nearly three hundred housing units are planned in territories which the palestinians insist belong to them the move could hamper the efforts of u.s. secretary of state john kerry to restart negotiations between the bitter rivals israeli settlements are considered illegal on an international law. with the palestinians insisting building must be frozen before any talks be commenced main long gangs of palestinian youths continue to protest a decades long occupation but israel's dishing the dirt and a whole new way against even peaceful demonstrators as policy explains. first it was the bullets then the tear gas and now it's probably the worst smelling substance you will ever smell in your entire life and god you know that you stink

you bad people i don't have a horn or it stinks you made it so now i have nowhere to go i can't even see my son you sprayed him. developed by israeli security forces this fast moving liquid is used to disperse palestinian demonstrations and it's proving to be pretty effective if it hits you in the eyes it could be painful and it could cause redness and if swallowed it can cause stomach problems it's important to. state that this material has never been used against israeli jews in only jewish demonstrations it's the answer to a years old search by the israeli military for an alternative to tear gas to control crowds the skunk is an anti-riot means that we employ in order to live up to our philosophy of containing rights at a safe distance while also ensuring the safety of everyone involved but those on the receiving end claim it's being used as collective punishment it's prestone for

but generally simply people participating in nonviolent marches and very often is that the skunk a spray that homes gardens at people who are not participating at all in any going inspiration take a tele to me for example he shows me the damage to his house from the so called skunk his wife was forced to throw they too old daughter from an absolute safety below after the windows of her bedroom shattered. the israeli forces come from this side in the sewage car stops the it starts spraying while at the same time the soldiers throw the tear gas on the houses. if we find a it's usual to see clashes here in the west bank village of not be selling between israeli soldiers and palestinian demonstrators villages came a nearby israeli settlement is being built on their land as you enter not be silent this is the sign that welcomes you dozens of tear gas canisters that have been collected just over the past few months as end of the excessive force the israeli

army uses against the small village it remains unclear what's actually inside the liquid i. mean this water is very dirty and has a very bad smell once we left the house for three weeks because of it it's water based and has various ingredients that create a very pungent smell but it is household in credence as well. whatever it is one thing both sides agree on you would not want to be sprayed with it. not be silly in the waistband. up next to make this kind of puts the big bankers and global finances on the ropes in his latest report.

and yet another step along the pointless anti gender crusade activist in sweden are pushing to promote a new gender neutral pronoun these activists want the term hen to replace the pronouns han and han which mean he and she respectively i think the logic of these bizarre gender neutral movements in the e.u. is that they really feel that it's awful to force someone into a role that doesn't fit them you know i can kind of see this i remember back to when i was a boy in school and with me there was a kid what kind of only female friends and i certainly wasn't a sports a toy trucks kind of kid if you understand what i mean you know i could see this guy having all those male stereotypes shoved down his throat you know it made his life at school really unpleasant but the wacko e.u. liberal answer to some. the amount of people being pushed into gender roles they don't like is to force everyone else into a genderless world they don't like fan asked stick i guess gender neutrality advocates can speak swedish how they like and they're free to use this word hen but don't force everyone in the country to do things your way the overwhelming majority of the world is very happy with its gender thank you very much but that's just my
