this is all see time in your life. and welcome to the program. now the russian federal security service has caught a cia agent who allegedly tried to recruit a secret service star for him or sco the american embassy employee ryan fogle was reportedly preparing for a major spy operation and are seized on biden has been delving into this scandal hello there tom nice to see you so want to know that this indeed fascinating story either you're yes according to the f.s.b. ryan fogle is not in fact the third political secretary at the u.s. embassy here in moscow he is in fact a u.s. spy working for the cia they have sent the f.s.b. has sent both releases and video they said that they caught him in the act of

trying to recruit a russian agent currently working as a counterterrorism agent in the north caucuses to try and work for for the cia they also sent us this video in which it can be heard one nameless f.s.b. operative announcing his astonishment at this find. but. things like that could happen if it's been has been actively cooperating with the u.s. working on intercepting threats to its national security the f.b.i. chief has also visited moscow recently while barack obama and vladimir putin reached an agreement that the country secret services should go together and with all that in the background this u.s. diplomat has committed a major state crime against russia do you have any questions regarding what's being demonstrated you would know. it must be said it's not known from the video whether

ryan foyle was given an opportunity to answer that question asked him by the f.s.b. they have also released video that they say purports to show some of the equipment technical equipment that royal ryan for oil used among it written instructions to the agent that he was trying to bring over to the cia also a huge amount of money in cash a moment also two weeks which were thought he was he used to try and disguise his appearance and a map of moscow and also a compass at the moment it's believed that ryan fogle has been returned to the u.s. embassy after a short period in detention the u.s. ambassador michael mcfaul has also been summoned over the incident though and of course john this is not the very first spying incident between moscow and washington so please bring us some background there indeed it's not in october two

thousand and twelve seven men were charged in the u.s. with illegal smuggling of high tech components destined for the russian military in october two thousand and eleven a company in germany were put on trial for spying for russia inside germany and in june two thousand and ten and chapman was one of ten arrested in the u.s. as part of a russian spy ring. artie's barton live here in in our studio many thanks indeed for that update tom thank you president alleging a person has the world powers to avoid any steps that could escalate this civil war in syria in statement came after talks with israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu his visit to russia follows a series of israeli air strikes against syria and more details now from parties it is following the talks in the black sea resort of sochi for us. the leaders of both

countries seem very united in the idea that any more violence in syria will lead not only to severe consequences in the country itself but in the entire region pledging not to rock the boat and to continue working together in the search for peace in the meantime the need to place shortly after air strikes in syria allegedly conducted by israel which haven't been officially admitted but it's a live hasn't officially rejected them either israel is really unsatisfied and critical of moscow for supplying the f. three hundred air defense systems to damascus under arms deals which were signed a few years back before the conflict in the country started but if the arms shipments are not violating any international agreements the same really can't be said about one state is striking another state so in territory most western countries have clearly taken side of the opposition pretty much since the beginning

of the conflict but now they're talking about the need for a joint conference which would include the rebels and see you know foodies what russia has been calling for throughout the entire time also stressing that not all these rebels are opposition areas many of them are bandits or even terrorists and this is constantly proven by linked in the web including the latest shocking video which clearly depicts a syrian rebel fighter cutting the heart of a dead syrian soldier out of his chest eating it on camera promising to do the same again and calling all the others to follow his example and. journalists and political analysts for these ratings says the best thing israel can do in series to stay out of the conflict. it's a very dedicated game a very dangerous game i'm not sure that israel knows what it does she won't does

she want the regime to remain does she favor position it's not very clear i'm not sure that these are no rules and he any case i think that is not interfering that also can hardly interfere there but they see should not interfere towards the only difference that i would expect this would be to like the other neighbors of syria to suggest some kind of humanitarian aid to the. victims of these civilian a war and that and then see the devastating conflict in series something most people across the border in israel are eagerly awaiting that as always he's point to clear reports now many in tel aviv believe that bad government is actually intensifying the syrian civil war. it's a new offer and stand here so that they have to think one or two like they have to think one hundred times

a day what to do with guns armed men that have been given the green light to fire into israel retaliated by damascus patel of his attack last week israeli officials have still not gone on record admitting they carried out to a strikes in forty eight hours but most people here are certain they did and damascus is certain of it it didn't mince its words calling israel's actions a declaration of war the criticism echoes in israel as well arab citizens took to the streets to protest and while divided over the support of the side they are clear on one thing israel's actions are wrong jobber sol is a twenty four year old university student despite being some two hundred fifty kilometers from syria his heart is with its people. israel gives itself permission to attack other countries but does not accept any other country doing the same whether this strike cannot be legitimate and israel should be judged in international corruption. but far from being judged israeli support the actions of

the government would be very frank i don't think that if we would have to. offer you we would've. remember even. i think. it's a very small element on a very long. problematic relations between israel and syria but it might just catch up with the israelis assad says he's borders are open for palestinians wishing to take military action against the jewish state a sure sign some say that tel aviv has shot itself in the foot israel has lost. never had. under tactics no official israeli policy is to prevent. progs first of all forms. i wonder if this is logical policy i doubt it very much and some

in israel fear the violence will stop at the border after they finish from killing this very will go ahead to haifa. and to do that to leave you all to jerusalem as what was once israel's most peaceful border threatens to become its newest battlefront policy r.t. television. a massive com blog. is second largest city which has seen the center of violence in recent weeks up ahead we'll explore why there's no sign of stability returning to the country almost two years after the fall of kind. of two hundred journalists and that assumes that their state of pres been targeted in a massive u.s. government spy operation against the news services a.p. is calling this surveillance a web spun by the justice department in itself unprecedented in science and scope

and a gross violation of privacy oh he's going to check out has been tracking the investigation for the justice department secretly obtained two months of telephone records targeting a.p. reporters and editors work and personal phone numbers if you believe more than one hundred of its journalists may have been caught up in this surveillance week the a.p. boss called it a massive and unprecedented intrusion into how news organizations operate the justice department acknowledged having spied on a.p. journalists but would not say why it sought the records they cited an ongoing investigation a peace process and said the government stalked and obtained information far beyond anything that could be justified by any specific investigation now the guess is that the investigation had to do with a.p. is reporting on a cia operation in yemen last year and the government's possible hundred food leaks the administration's unprecedented has had an enormous chilling effect on investigative journalism

a number of journalists with major news organizations here told me that it's never been as hard for them to do their job as it is now because sources that they had previously communicated with now either don't return their calls or say out front that they'd rather not talk they can go to jail the obama. has brought up more cases against whistleblowers than all previous presidents combined now as the news of emerged that the justice department has secretly cast this wife's a veil is that. on journalists looking for we still don't know what the white house says it knows nothing about this and refers to the justice department and the justice department having acknowledged the phone taps came up with what some saw as as an orwellian response they said the value the freedom of the press and that they're seeking to strike the right balance between the public interest of the free flow of information and the public interest in the fair and effective administration of our criminal laws that's according to their statement well it's not clear what mine dozens of a.p.

jordan is toward their sources have committed to be caught up in this kind of a surveillance sweep but this is sending a chilling effect far beyond the associated press to all journalists that their records can be intercepted and sifted through like this and also meet somewhere issue us authorities had to use some of that surveillance vigor to keep an eye on someone like the boston bomber after all those red flags well or could it be that you're in this sort of seen as more dangerous to national security these days the revelations of the justice department's toxics against journalists come just days after another scandal over well it's been branded tunks favoritism the american government was caught up strikes intoxications submitted by political groups critical of president obama and they say that both of these cases point to a boring new trend. since nine eleven particularly we've seen the rapid expansion of a police state in this country it is the infrastructure of the police state is already

in place so the restricting of the flow of information by the government and its various mouthpieces this is part of this creeping police state and what i what i want to stress is that the obama administration perhaps more so than any administration before it has been vehemently persecuting whistleblowers of all kind lest we forget bradley manning where the countless other whistleblowers who have been thrown in prison or otherwise intimidated and i think that this is the real hidden side of this story that the obama administration wants to control the flow of information in order to restrict the truth from getting out and we also spoke to . no pinhead believe that the third valence of a paper reports has shows that there was about him is hypocritical approach to press freedom it flies in the face of everything obama campaigned on about protecting protecting the press protecting our whistleblowers this is this is very hypocritical all around the world all the sudden the u.s.

top starts talking about freedom of the press whenever they're trying to bring down destabilize a government in venezuela they don't like hugo chavez because he's defending the people so all the sudden they're talking about freedom of the press in venezuela but yet in bahrain there is a government that's in that is loyal to the u.s. government that it takes orders from wall street and all the sudden they look the other way while those groups suppression. a russian soyuz space capsule brings us back to. block your soyuz and put you all helmet on. the star right after the break learn more about the canadian astronaut has become a sensation on. modern russia was built on coal. fuel for its factories. coke for its steel newmark gold is it more than heat for its people.

join me james brown to meet them and to spend their lives underground and work in one of the world's most dangerous professions. from. the woodlands to. hearts of coal on altie. hunger strike despair pushed to the limit. the one hundred days nearly one hundred guantanamo detainees are screaming for justice. where is the end for good no. world for the. science technology innovation all the latest developments from

around russia we've got the future covered. this is all seems well combined set scene people were killed and dozens wounded and accomplice to that ripped through a crowded street in libya's second largest city have been ghazi this comes amid a hectic pullout of foreign embassy staffers from the country due to the recent spike in violence and let's now get more perspective on the situation now with a rigged dentist say the rector of the scientist center for intelligence studies mr denny say thank you very much indeed for joining us now you were on a fact finding mission only been twenty eleven how has the situation changed since then obviously to situation is far worse even if nobody regrets warmer but could be i guess no it fragmented and very dangerous country and no one can call girl the situation so these kind of jogs up saluki tonight. so who do you think is behind

this bombing well the bombing is going to cringe unless he has as well as the bombing of the last hours probably the fact of the sort of jedi's to our coming back from mali where they have been deeply fitted and i personally believe that they had been they have received the secret approval of the beloved which is the ministry of interior of libya and which is the former head of the. mr levy and fighting group analysts say the government has laws de facto control over the country how did that happen. well you know i mean as a the government doesn't control the country i wonder if even country will be capital tripoli this generation is a lot of logical result of what happened during the so-called revolution remember the transitional council was not to get his asian we have a former member of the kit a few regime jet east for a list of developed kratz monarchies so as soon as the two close where they begin

to divide in their lives into five each other so this is the logical result of those of the subtle revolution and i mean all and then he. seemed very early what would happen leave obviously when to stand and you also mention it during the twenty seven civil war numerous armed groups emerged do you think there's a risk of them now taking control over the country. i don't know if they're going to take counsel but i don't think any group will accept to give back you twenty pounds because when you leave yeah you understand that every try groups on a family knows that without weapons they have no chance to survive in this very intrigued gate and violent and complex situation as libya is today. and most of the islamist influence. is it as strong as it's being made out to be yes it is important glee and it's still growing with the support of qatar libya is no it

is him to the neighboring country as we see in the area who we need in tunisia. you know that for a few weeks. group is approaching in softened tunisia and this is a very dangerous situation and there are now tensions imagine between the different regions of libya with the oil rich provinces seeking autonomy for example is there a risk of the country breaking up. well it's very difficult to see for years i mean since the dying will get a future well we're all is here in the region wants to be in it in the state may be independent states but it's very difficult to watch which is going to work with the next moment a lot of people say libya is going to be divided into three different states like it was before the total good musician that it's really really great difficult to do any revision of that subject. right to raise any say their work so the french center for intelligence studies thank you very much indeed. later

this hour our she's our fast reports on a new project at such a blunt and mariam of rural england into the world wide web. coming up we're going to be telling you how one local community it looked like his tackling flow into that sleep by quite literally taking matters into their hand. a russian soyuz capsule has safely delivered a three man crew back to earth from the international space station canadian commander chris hadfield returns from albeit with newfound celebrity status having recorded the first of a music clip in space which has gone viral on you tube attracting over six million hits and he's also posted a series of videos showing how everyday items behave in zero gravity on his from thomas explains. the crew of. zero seven am has returned to

earth safely landing in kazakhstan at just after six thirty in the morning moscow time and this is an incredibly experienced crew with russian cosmonaut romana roman yank oh this is his second flight chris hadfield from canada this is his third spaceflight and thomas marshburn the united states astronaut this is his second between them seven space flights with this incredibly experienced crew now it's always a great moment here at mission control. when that capsule lands and they can breathe a sigh of relief knowing that they have accomplished a mission and done something pretty special now on this particular mission just a couple of days ago showing that nothing is ever routine when it comes to space travel thomas marshburn had to do an emergency spacewalk to help fix what was detected a coolant leak at the international space station that was a last minute decision that they decided to send him out just days before you scheduled to depart the international space station chris hadfield from canada gotten a lot of media attention he is arguably the most savvy social media astronaut

in the history of space travel having almost nine hundred thousand twitter followers now one of the things that he became known for is conducting experiments in space connecting to regular people one of the experiments was showing people what it's like to cry in space what happens to tears with no gravity i mean they can't fall down so he simulated the conditions in space and produced a dramatic video one other thing he produced the video what happens when you bring out a wash towel in space and shows what happens to the water and all sorts of interesting things with the surface tension and where does the water go if it doesn't actually fall to the ground chris hadfield is also in the process or has just completed recording the first commercial album in spaces so these are some of the things that babe accomplished on this particular mission but as of now the crew t.m.a. zero seven am back on earth safely and everyone can know that

a job was well done and mission accomplished. meanwhile back inside the most fear of remote control passengers could soon become a reality a prototype has made its first successful flight long that's now comes to. the deadly news signs like virus was detected in saudi arabia is rapidly spreading around the world get all the details at it all. having an internet connection is clear in a world where basic transactions are increasingly done online the british government has announced that its citizens will be expected to use the web to manage their welfare payments a tough call for unconnected rural areas. visited one community in northern england that's preparing itself for the future by plugging itself in the rolling hills unveils of the english countryside what lancashire in the north of england has in secluded beauty it lacks in most income. despite major provided bt

reporting a feast in profits local communities like these haven't felt the benefits and have had to dig deep into their own pockets and land to try to get connected we have on camera a b.c. executive. power which is one of the highlights the hard choice over in the distance that survey english area unsafe just look at this forces here fulfill i should say it is just no economically viable for them to come out the way least to connect up the three hundred fifty projects called gold band to the rural north old bones the shoot might be in the early stages still but it could be set to make this quietly cool setting a cooler uble internet hotspots they have a fading into the ground the five year old think cable that provides be in that cannot hit all of it has taken years and passable planning and as you can see

behind me a lot of hard work on the ball and to vote for the best part about this is that once it's all up and running this area is going to how much faster internet connection than the u.k. average it's unlikely bt will be daunted by this local competition yet but the project is attracting high level attention. to government he's actually now seriously looking at can this be an example as i said for other areas and hopefully now they've actually seen a bill not the from being on the ground regime to allow smaller groups like this to access the major problems that we're rolling out across the pond back in the fields and it's all hands on deck as volunteers look to get the community hey connected now if you can see here people you've never met future of the before thought of them so working in so cold field producer of the earth there are

a lancashire in the north of england. the russian foreign ministry chance to issued a statement saying the cia agent's exit is on the cover of full u.s. embassy in moscow do not promote neutral confidence between moscow and washington and they actually want him to leave the country as soon as possible coming up next who looks at one of the world's most dangerous professions consequently. the illusion of safety trumping you're right seems to be the main political theme of post nine eleven america unnoticed pushing the keep you safe at any cost and lot more the new york billionaire mayor michael bloomberg who originally had to defend

his stop and frisk strategy after giving a speech to police brass stop and frisk is the practice of just being able to search anyone in new york at any time for any reason with your hands this gestapo style practice has been in place since two thousand and two but thankfully was finally recently found to be unconstitutional by a federal judge you know the fourth amendment all the talk about no unlawful search and seizure seems pretty clear to me why did this take so long to figure out bloomberg despite that silly constitution thing stands firm with this policy declaring if you end street stops looking for guns they will be more guns on the street and more people will be killed it's just that simple well to that i would say if you stop nazi style first games of random innocent people there will be more freedom on the streets it's just that simple but that's just my opinion.

it's the. time of change. and. the coal is the bread industry and during the soviet union the miner was held up as a shining example of what a work tireless ready to sacrifice himself for his country and the hardest workers of old were here and. taking the coal that would make everything from steel to record.
