see anytime anywhere. sectarian rifts deep in iraq with one hundred thirty people killed since wednesday with some of the worst bloodshed in years sparking fears of a return to savage civil war. turkish police clashed with demonstrators in a town near the syrian border amid a protest over turkish support for the armed rebels. boss u.s. security sort of again was a arrest of a suspected terrorist who got into the country lawfully just like the boston bombers. it is four pm in the russian capital you're watching r t i'm marina joshie welcome

to the program. now iraq's once again finding itself torn apart by bombs and secure in stride gunmen have killed a family of an anti-terrorism police officer in his own home and baghdad while friday at least seventy six people died in a series of blasts in and around the capital iraq's deadliest day in over eight months the worst attack came when two bombs exploded outside a sunni mosque in book about killing more than four dozen people deepening political turmoil has left the government deadlocked as it tries to lead a country made up of radically different groups in iraq as soon as complained they are being marginalized by the shiite led government ever since u.s. troops toppled saddam hussein he said allison is a u.s. congressman who believes america must clean up the mess it created. up think we have an obligation to stay engaged with iraq. diplomatically and developmentally

militarily quite honestly i don't i am not convinced that we can as a meaningful improvement to the situation with some point our role in iraq militarily needs to come to an inn and even if there is horrible military violence going on there i mean the question needs to be raised is our reengagement going to help i don't i doubt that seriously but what i think we do need to do is to remember that we create these conditions and we have an ongoing obligation and you know we've got to make sure that i mean if we can play a diplomatic role to help cease the violence we should and if we can certainly help rebuild this country i think we have a moral obligation to do so because we are to par. turkish police have fired tear gas at protesters in a town near the syrian border which was the scene of a deadly double car bombing a week ago demonstrators are angry over ankara support for the syrian rebels which

they say is putting turkey in the firing line world affairs journalist and broadcaster new clark joins us now live for more on the situation there a little bit of very much for joining us now tension and discontent on the turkish syrian borders escalating as we can see so in your opinion what ramifications could this have. what i think if i was take a shot would be protesting too because mr. muscle blood and blood to it because it all goes to sound celebrity. syrian government allowed to be placed in the country's government arms to them an equivalent and now it's sort of blowback in terms of going into this week and this will only continue until turkey changes course in relation to syria. now turkey maintains syria was responsible for the last weekend's bombing of a turkish town that left more than fifty people dead but you know why would damascus orchestrate a cross border attacks. absolutely would be absolutely suicide were present exact

order to it knowing that very powerful countries in the west are just itching for any any excuse to military attack the country to bomb the country so the last thing they would be would be trying to bomb turkey so it's absolutely absurd i don't know who was responsible at this point but it's clear that what obama's done is it is actually integral to turkey in this war he bought the water turkey and understandably turkish citizens not just those on the border with syria throughout the country are getting increasingly angry and the armed course. well we know that turkey has made it clear a number of occasions that it doesn't want to get involved directly in syria of course but has pledged to respond on the other hand to the bombings so what sort of action what kind of developments can we expect in this context and what turkey's got to show restraint here because we haven't heard any evidence is responsible for these books and i think. there is a great because it is entire policy because all he's doing is increasing the tensions here are he's backing the rebels he took

a gamble in august two thousand and marina that the syrian government very shortly and let there be a nice islamist government in power in damascus to be very friendly to turkey it backfired as it happened and i think you heard over the you know the position to it in your worst words i. hope i'm wrong we're going to see more bombings i'm afraid because that was before turkey and of course the rebels themselves are fighting amongst themselves in the radical islamist not so radical islamists and it will happen in turkey now well speaking of the solution to the syrian crisis in an international conference on syria endorsed by russia in the united states is expected soon so what can we actually expect to come out of this conference. well it all depends on the stance of the u.s. and its allies because if they're still going to carry on with this rhetoric. we're not gonna make any progress are we you know the people who were in the plane on the far far country like the u.s. and turkey got to change their position it's no good having a conference if they're still going to rebels they're still saying that the syrian people could decide to go what they want was

a sad that's not that's not democracy is it's up to the syrian people alone they sucked the u.s. qatar to stop interfering in syria. all right we'll thanks very much indeed for your input for thoughts here on r.t. that was journalist and broadcaster. thank you very. well the joined up european project is looking at least united in years and france as britain's to blame president a lot accuses the u.k. of splintering the e.u. by pledging a referendum on quitting and that's now up to him to navigate europe out of this mess british hero i'm pm our. friend he won't change the case mind. london and the u.k. is trying to drive its own economy in the best way possible i think orlando is criticizing the u.k. when in fact he has plunged his own country into this deep

a long term recession so really the u.k. is not here to take lessons from the socialist government that with high taxes passports the country his own country into severe difficulties even mr hollande is asking for more political union and this will require a new treaty so on the occasion and six new treaty david cameron could really introduce a number of beneficial. for the united kingdom and eventually as i say he has promised a referendum so i don't think what mr landis saying is causing any damage or is really influencing any situation in the united kingdom. now britain indeed does have bigger fish to fry as very poor later this hour here in r.t.

this by promising to tackle tax avoidance one in five offshore havens are british jurisdictions and the billions of dollars being siphoned into profits are starving developing countries the most. tedious toilet for. this question about britain and europe. david cameron's under increasing pressure to guarantee a vote on the u.k.'s future if you leave us so britain's european this fear that such a divorce could destroy the. now it is pakistan national has been arrested on federal terrorism charges in the us he's accused of conspiring to make explosives and supporting a foreign jihad is movement the magnet and turn america illegally just like the boston bombers and the incident has stoked fresh fears that washington is failing to screen potential terrorists as more important than ops lanes. a thirty year old was becks and national has been arrested on

a federal terrorism charges but just three years ago he was easily admitted to the u.s. as a refugee prosecutors have charged us latine corben off with conspiring to provide material support to the islamic movement of uzbekistan an american designated terrorist organization and off he was arrested in boise idaho where he has lived since immigrating to the u.s. it's also kind of what's not clear is how a man allegedly tied to a terrorist network was able to bypass the u.s. is seven hundred billion dollar national security apparatus and enter the country some would argue that homeland security officials should have thoroughly vetted it was back and rejected his application for refugee status but when it comes to the u.s. homeland security system expensive doesn't necessarily equate to a fact it according to a report by the u.s. inspector general the u.s.

justice department temporarily lost track of former terrorists who participated in america's witness protection program now the independent investigator found that officials at the witness protection program failed to share the fictitious identities that had been created for terrorism linked witnesses with the f.b.i. terrorist screening center that's the agency that maintains america's terrorist watch and no fly lists so as a result some participants of the witness protection program that were put on a no fly list could have flown commercial flights without approval in the meantime the u.s. that of these use to track suspected terrorists has reportedly reached eight hundred seventy five thousand names that's more people than the entire population of cyprus clearly washington does not however the resources to monitor each and every name on. that list and as recent developments have challenged the u.s.

government has also failed to keep suspected terrorists from entering or leaving the country according to new york bring up or not are to. the u.s. keeps a database of known or suspected terrorists with around seven hundred fifty thousand names on the list one of them was the dad boston bomber it was considered to have holes else read just months before the marathon atrocity one libertarian news editor told us the massive list of suspects may way too big for the u.s. to handle the great ironies is that the more information together and we do press or security organizations together more and more into know more and more but somebody has to process that information is the more information gather chances are the less you know to do it and he did it and he datum and it's in that database so you can have it as many names in there as you will want to know this hundreds of thousands of just a million names in there at this point the chance of actually doing anything with any one of those names and if he useful diminishes the larger the database comes

the more information we scoop up the less we do in that so we can we can talk about security measures all day long but if we're going to an open society people are going to come and go and some of them will. now america's family drug stores are and a critical condition and that's because patients are being forced to using personal big chain pharmacies to tell you why. why europe's simmering neo nazi movements are becoming an increasing cause for concern. wealthy british style. tirelessly. market why not. find out what's really happening to the global economy

with mike stronger for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune into cars a report on our. in america the familiar face of your trusted local pharmacist is rapidly becoming

extinct the personal treatment from small community drug stores is finding itself bulldozed by the giant chains at its heart are the pharmaceutical majors and insurance firms have teamed up to stifle the competition as if you're going to reports. pharmaceuticals in the u.s. a major moneymaker huge drug store chains are popping up on every street corner with multiple locations and endless services when reid is writing aid whichever the big ones not that i prefer them but it's just that they're the only option we're from new jersey so we go to c.v.s. . one in new york doing read but mostly c.v.s. competition for mom and pop shops is steeper than ever in places like the big apple where rent alone is sky high and small neighborhood pharmacies are all but it stinks of the city overflowing the joint chains like this one the town drugstore

symbolically was always at the center of american culture in american life that in now as the big chains move in only the prices tend to go up but they squeeze the little guys out the pharmacists however small pharmacies have more issues than just the increase of big box shops health insurance companies have been merging with drug stores taking away americans choice of where they can get their medicine if they fell at my location they would have to pay fifty percent of the cost of the medication if they feel that c.v.s. they would only pay thirty percent of the cost of the medication sarah fraud who has had her shop in a small community in upstate new york for about six months offering personal attention and a more intimate approach she's built a good reputation with the locals fast right now. but the pharmacist says an increasing number of her patients have been learning they have no choice but to do business elsewhere at a giant pharmacy across the street what they do is we just had one this week

a woman came in she wanted to fill her prescriptions out our pharmacy she was sick of c.b.s. the long waits the lines the rude you know employees and we took a prescription check her insurance card bill the turns found out she cannot fill anywhere besides c.b.s. measured hosey and runs a pharmacy new jersey and is faced with the same obstacle he says he has lost a fifth of his patients because of these deals the big stores are able to make negotiate their own contracts with insurance companies so that they get they get paid more than what we do and then. they when they purchase their medications they purchase them at a lower rate than what we purchased them that much even though there have been pushes from small pharmacy lobbying groups to get in the way of the tricks used by big chains huge corporations simply have more money to lobby their interests even if sued they pay the fine and move on meanwhile the small businesses fight on to stay afloat allow us to compete freely with each other as businesses and we go out

of our way to give the best customer service and be as friendly as we can despite the pleas an obvious economic benefits of money staying in a community instead of corporate giants bank accounts the sort of general end of the middle class story which sadly has been the macroeconomic story of the last really forty years here in the united states thanks that friendly neighborhood shops that used to be what made the american dream possible could soon be a thing of the past and stacy churkin or hearty new york. at r.t. dot com for you now and nuclear a near miss and germany it's revealed that one of the nation's biggest cities was on the brink of a radiation disaster earlier this month we have the details online. what's the so-called syrian electronic army turns up the heat in cyberspace targeting a string of western media outlets find out who the latest hacking victim is on our website. dozens of neo nazi activists have gathered in berlin with

extra police drafted and to call the growing popularity of far right movements is raising concerns across the european union here all over investigates what's fuelling it from britain in the west to greece in the far right groups and making their voices heard in you. in this financial crisis affected everyone and it has allowed the right wing organizations to give people someone to blame for their problems it's those people's fault that is how they were cruet. greece has seen a marked increase in support for far right nazi groups golden door and organization derived by the critics as hooligans and thirds or hurled by their supporters as the saviors of greece for the greeks and they systematic and the

brits and cultivate. but they attack systematical immigrants at the present golden dawn have made it further than most they have elected officials on their books including current greek m.p. elias can see artists it's not only in politics that extreme right views a permeating this goal celebration by a key athens is good because cut the d.s. so the midfielder banned for life from the national team despite his claims that he didn't know what this meant and here in germany a country which experienced firsthand the horrors of naziism right wing extremist groups springing up right now with tension in germany is focused on the murder trial of their to shout no as the nazi right she's accused of being part of a national socialist terrorist cell claimed to have murdered nine immigrants in one

policewoman and the two thousands after nine hundred forty five are told about what happened in the war on the holocaust of course but some held on to those ideas when the wall came down we saw last rise in right wing groups that grew into today's neo nazis as well as on t. fascist organizations members of germany's mainstream right wing party d. sis that their policies are the only way to tackle the current problems facing the country. if we as german taxpayers have to save the entire europe we are going to go broke we have to admit that some european nations cannot be saved and focus on those that can't. it seems as long as europe's finances continue to languish in the red more and more people are seeking answers with the right teacher all over r.c. . the cyber currency bet cohen has suffered another setback after u.s.

authorities seized the calends of its major operator and now hamper. the process of exchanging bitcoins which stands at about one hundred twenty dollars per unit so why is the u.s. government so worried about the currency and is a bit coin able to beat traditional currency so to speak so to take part users must to download a virtual wallet on to a computer or a mobile device and they will then get an address for the swat and can transfer a bit coins back and forth to the wad of another user for a small charge of course and without banking mediators so from a distance may resample web money or pay pal system but a key difference is of course anonymity all transactions are encrypted and untraceable and it it's this feature that's ringing alarm bells creating a space where arms and drugs can be bought and sold alongside more innocent goods so this isn't putting off some big name investors though and this week alone

a big coin related start up one five million dollars in backing economist professor really rockwell says it's the lack of governability and control of the currency that's alarming the authorities i think the fear is that conventional methods of finance are so corrupted and so looked upon with a negative mentality that masses of people are inventing ways and there are dozens of them to get around to alleviate to avoid some of them are of course criminals they want to avoid for those reasons but the majority of people involved are really expressing a sense of economics out of control of an economic system that isn't working that is making the inequality unbearable and everyone is looking for something that will allow them to escape the rules as they are. now we're all being expected to pay our way as a few more tax dollars are squeezed out of us but not everyone is coughing up the

big françoise spend a fortune where they are getting away with paying a pittance and duties and it's countries like britain which are being called on to sort it out. now reports there are one hundred of the u.k.'s biggest companies but new research shows that they're still cutting corners by saving money on tax ninety eight of the c. one hundred companies in the u.k. run the holding all subsidiary companies off shore these include high street giants such as barclays bank and tesco it's unlikely to make easy reading for the british government which is about the possible years promising to climb down on corporate tax avoidance now action aid is the charity that's been looking into the issue and i'm paid to talk to tax policy expert michael lewis who authored the report where these findings come from. mike thank you very much for joining us the british government's been promising to clamp down on tax avoidance for

a while now we've seen a number of stories and scrutiny towards companies such as starbucks and amazon and google so it looked like progress had been made but what did you find when you looked at the bigger picture a new research found that tax haven operations and companies are almost universal amongst the world's largest companies but the u.k. has a particular responsibility here one in five of the world's tax havens are under the u.k. jurisdiction what's the link between overseas tax havens and the developing world. the link quite simply is that the developing world in developing countries are suffering from tax avoidance further and faster than the u.k. and other countries so the o.e.c.d. estimates that developing countries lose up to three times more money to tax havens every year than they receive in international aid this is g eight provides a real opportunity particularly to tackle the problem of tax havens and tax

avoidance what we need from the g eight is a global deal that forces tax havens to disclose assets and wealth hidden on their shores and forces them to share that information with countries from day one thank you very much for joining us they have as you've just heard david cameron has promised to tackle the issue of global tax avoidance at next month's g eight summit which britain will be chairing but so far it's unclear how firmly britain is prepared to act in order to stamp out the culture of corporate tax avoidance. r.t. . now let's take a look at some other stories from around the world and north korea has fired three short range of guided missiles into its eastern waters reportedly support of routine tests saturday's launches triggered unrest in the neighboring south which has now strengthened its patrols tension on the korean peninsula had plateaued recently after spiking in march after the north launched two missiles to conduct the another nuclear test. france's president alone has signed into

unsuspecting public say this. the illusion of safety trumping your rights seems to be the main political theme of post nine eleven america i noticed pushing the keep you safe at any cost on globe or 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 his 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 sample well to that i would say if you stop nazi style first kings of random innocent people there will be more freedom on the streets it's just that simple but that's just my opinion.
