u.s. government has changes policies change legislation in the name of which they said was to keep americans safe wars waged overseas and our privacy a roving here at home those american citizens that we've spoken with say that snowden sacrifice should not be in vain and there needs to be a bigger dialogue about the way in which the u.s. government is acting behind the backs of its own citizens now of course this blockbuster story has caused many to wonder if the u.s. government will still move forward on lecturing and pointing fingers at other countries such as iran and china for the way in which deals with its citizens are now it has been revealed to the entire world that the u.s. is keeping very close tabs on everything that americans are doing at home and even abroad reporting from new york marina r.t. . make sure you also log on to our website r t v dot com because we're bringing you

a songe i am and you still get people like likes not like. snowden coming out again so it indicates that there's a tremendous amount of courage of young people to try and reveal the criminality and surveillance and the state that we have here the legal part has to do with laws that this country passed post nine eleven in particular courts that are essentially hand-picked and decided to old ghosts and a president who is willing to have so terribly approved just massive surveillance i think that terrorism is used as an excuse to be able to surveil and keep tabs on every single american to prevent a really a change in government what's happening is they've hired thousands tens of thousands of young people into this network of their it's the surveillance network and a lot of the people have contracts it still takes courage once you have conscience but we're seeing that happen not snowden manning. hammond those are heroes.

and this latest explosion of u.s. government surveillance is among the is taking center stage on the kaiser report has a great preview while you can catch of the full version in just twenty minutes time . adam smith was a table of the same seldom made together even for merriment and diversion but for the conversation ending in a conspiracy against the public aren't some contrivance to raise prices that's fricken adam smith has said that. stacey max for proof of this we're going to look image of men of the same trade getting together for the purposes of merriment and diversion it would look like from the photo in this is barack obama in february twentieth eleven meeting with steve jobs to his left mark zuckerberg of facebook to his right then you see the c.e.o. of twitter the c.e.o. of yahoo cross the table as the google c.e.o. eric schmidt larry ellison and the president of stanford university the last supper

you know it's an undertaker's convention it's the moment when barack obama complicit league bed with these guys you run prism essentially that's the moment i mean look at that dinner look at that image this is when barack obama so actually took the constitution and wiped his butt with it and it's the moment of supreme treasonous action by the president eyes states america is dead seventeen seventy six to prison thank you kill the country. some u.s. intelligence officials are allegedly making no secret of the fact that they want the n.s.a. whistleblower to disappear make sure you log on to our com to read all about it. also while you're there we can leagues of founder julian assange praises snowden is a whistle blowing as this is saying the n.s.a. leaks confirm what he's been saying for years all the details are just

a click away. edward snowden's revelations of mass telephone and internet monitoring by the n.s.a. has ramped up the global debate on the surveillance of citizens in the frame once again of the multibillion dollar internet for his privacy track record has caught them for artie's business presenting katie pull them takes a closer look at the social media titans. web sites like facebook google and instagram have been mining the personal information of their hundreds of millions of users through their computers or mobiles every day from our favorite sports top designers on diets you name it we've talked about it they make a digital note of it on this personal data is big business most of all stick with grease some of what we can be used to at target our friends do use us to deal even the new revelations at our private data is being abused to make these huge companies even richer is doing little to quench our enthusiasm for them well at

least for now take verizon for example the biggest u.s. cell phone network with one hundred twenty one million subscribers is accused of handing over millions of phone records to the u.s. government but as you can see despite the scandal the company's share price is actually managing to game still valued at around one hundred billion dollars and recently google with more than thirteen billion hits a month the company's street view service was fined seven million dollars in the u.s. because as well as photo mapping the streets their cars were scooping up data on people's e-mails passwords web histories from their own crypt at home and why for signals google is still wild almost three hundred billion dollars facebook with its one point one billion users is has more than a few privacy complaints in recent years there was the farmville breach back in twenty ten will face but was found to be giving out the game is identification

numbers to bird party apps but the company is still worth nearly seventy billion dollars so all of these scandals appears to have dented the value of these companies so do we no longer care how intrusive they are that's what i asked leading media consumer has done your lap. it's clear that certain privacy rights and norms have been have been violated but we have to see really how this situation pans out before we make any judgment it's very difficult for consumers to just leave facebook or any other platform because it's not something about either google or facebook but it's something about the internet as such consumers would have little tona to have to move to other platforms because they have all been at it stands now complicit in providing data so for now i just to switched into these sites but the more that spot is up on news space the more frustrated we're becoming

and that grade might just make us finally log off from what a false becoming anti social networks are most stories ahead for you a little later iraq is plagued by the worst bloodshed in our teeth travels a country torn by sectarian violence to hear from sunni and shi'ite about their plight. and with the french hailing their military campaign in mali years ago says the many say the intervention only open the doors to more extremism we've got those stories just ahead. we'll talk about language and what i will only react to situations i have read the reports for. the new i will be there to comment on your letter. carrier a car is on the job here. you know more recently. when

you need a direct question are you prepared for a change when you're. ready for a. freedom of speech a little different to. the i. used today. these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. during operation the letter to. the old you're watching r t the un is preparing to

deploy a new peacekeeping force in mali amid warnings that on separatist groups in the north poses a serious threat to security across the region this is the money and government and the two reg rebels negotiate a deal to allow elections to go ahead next month but as artie's maria for national reports many believe in early a military campaign by france only opened the door to more bloodshed. france says it's done its job well in mali killed most of its islamist insurgents destroyed the infrastructure and pushed the rest of the country but the people who gathered here in the center of the northern city of gower think france's mission isn't complete. the french are making excuses because our enemy is holding kadar they must resolve this before any elections or negotiations take place france

should defend our humanity not try to keep us in our place. to the desert capital of kiddo has been out of governmental control since last year first it's been captured by terrorists indigenous african people fighting to create a breakaway state in the north of mali then the radical islamists came the un sardine group believed to have ties with al qaida the two factions came to an agreement to establish an islamic autonomy when the french military came they drove out most of the islamists but tour except protist are still there mali and forces haven't been able to enter the town for months now something that's never been a problem for french troops who have an air base in the baltic what i think i mean a lot we have contacts with the separatists but we don't have coordination with them we don't discuss things with them they don't attack us and we don't consider them enemy we don't have any reason to attack them. but the touring separatists do

attack is the mollen military the areas around and kid else to witnesses heavy fighting yet the french army so far refuses to engage with the rebels and can tell regardless of the threat they may pose to molly's territorial integrity and the next presidential election palmer they will bore you with your mic our military part is over the rest is merely an internal problem but the mali. sure a conflict is indeed very much a local fight after independence from france the torrens usual territory across more than mali geria was divided in mali it led to years of violence but our exit mostly populate the north of mali here in the thousand part of the country you will not find many whites this is how other ethnic moland groups with significantly darker skin call their nomadic neighbors and this geographical division only deepens antagonism but some believe this internal conflict could never stay as intense without outside help france has been openly supporting what it regards as

an oppressed and discriminated minority shortly after the french intervention of the defense minister in paris suggested ethnic tour rigs in northern mali should have some autonomy you need to get a few political muscle the war will begin all over again because of the behavior of the french the support of the torah group bailey and against all the tribes and cities in the north of mali which just alienated them from the rest even more. to separate groups which claim there is so aim is to defend the towns from the armed to riggs what they say their own belongs to them but we don't agree so with take up arms to defend our homes you know. they came first then the islamists arrived after them they opened the door for radicals to come to our land . last week president a laundry sieved a peace prize for the operation in mali but it's still unclear whether what the

french troops will soon leave behind can truly be described as peace and what peacekeepers officially coming to the scene this july will have to maintain. from mali. some news that just got in here nora t a double suicide attack has rolled to the syrian capital damascus the explosions went off in the city center near the old interior ministry building and a hotel local television reports fatalities will keep you updated on this as we get more information the attack comes as washington is a debating whether they should arm syrian rebels after assad forces made recent advances and recaptured a key city now the u.s. could approve a lethal aid for opposition fighters in a matter of days a no fly zone could also be under consideration syrian government forces are making gains in the country's north to pairing for

a major offensive against rebel held areas in aleppo that's amid reports of a new atrocities by extremists fighting in the ranks of the opposition meanwhile the u.s. has criticized russia over its plans to supply the us of government with s three hundred a defense systems russian foreign minister sergei lavrov says it's barely a threat unlike american arms being sent to the region we supply weapons to all those who contract illegally. and this is the universal i don't think you can perpetrate the crimes because defensive weapons with very different systems. you also know about the volume of. kind of weaponry i have i have those very very good states to the countries of the region. and in quite a number of cases those equipment those not been very include. things which

you can use against a popular demonstrate it. some other news making the headlines at this hour starting with the one where reformers and little mohamed resign has just quit the presidential race the second such case in less than a day reports say he was also dropped out by the head of the reformist movement most of the six remaining fellow candidates in the poor conservatives closer to the supreme leader ayatollah ali coming reducing any chance that a moderate could win the elections are due to start on friday. at least she people have been killed and five injured after part of a residential building collapse in the indian city of mumbai dozens of victims are feared to be trapped under rubble the blog a house of these sixteen apartments and a car show room when soon rains are being blamed for the collapse. parts of central europe remain on high alert as a deadly flood of water continue to rise the tens of thousands of people have been

forced to flee their homes in the east german city of mud the bird after a dam burst on the flood a swollen river elbe despite the reports that water levels were receding at least twenty one people have been killed in the region in more than a week of intense flooding the clean up operation is expected to cause billions of euros. at this so many people have been killed and two hundred and thirty injured in iraq during just one day in the last likely to spike in violence suicide blasts roadside bombs and a gun battles rocked the country on monday continuing weeks of bloodshed which has claimed nearly two thousand lives since a problem much of the violence is blamed on sunni islamist insurgents with the minority protesting for months against a shiite led government or it is losing care for not went to investigate the sectarian tension. may was the bloodiest month seen in iraq in the past five

years a surge in sectarian violence that's raised fears of another civil war sunni versus shia one country two sects. iraq has been through this before and that divide never really sealed tensions are growing between the shiite led government and minority sunnis inflamed by the raging conflict in neighboring syria to understand the divisions we have to travel to an area off limits to foreign journalists the end bar province following the u.s. led invasion this area was the heartland of the sunni insurgency today it's become the focal point of the anti-government protests. for several months now every friday this scene prayer on the highway to baghdad followed by protests against the baghdad government it's a situation that's reflective of the state of iraq today a country that has been torn apart by war but doesn't seem to be and the closer to healing the wounds and the divisions that have been on the least during that

occupation here the sunni protesters who have gathered behind me want a different kind of system they want to change they feel that the government doesn't represent them. is one of those protesters he's brought his son to almost every demonstration there for a residence but not by choice he says he was forced to flee baghdad for fear of arrest by the military and that his sect made him a target of one day a military brigade surrounded the area where we lived in baghdad and started making arrests they were targeting sunday residents and arrested two of my cousins so i gathered my family and escaped to flu jab. the demonstrators complain of discrimination arbitrary arrests detention even torture under the rule of prime minister nouri al maliki charges that the government denies. that the government systematically driving sunnis from baghdad this is miss. migration is being done in the open cities are restricted in everything from where we live to the kinds of

jobs we can have but in a shia neighborhood a different version of the story fearful of retribution for speaking out this resident prefers to hide his identity he tells us of the dangers iraqi shia face from armed groups. we also have been displaced by threats from al qaeda and other militias this used to be a mixed area but people have started exchanging houses between sunni and shia families to safety some analysts blame the united states for the divisions they build the new system political system in iraq on the sectarian basis like they made the proportions for the seventies for this. and for the dish and this is very little. those divisions have taken a toll on iraqi youth a generation separated by the threat of violence. it really affects the sing causes a lot of problems between me and my friends especially if they're from

a different six we can't work together we'll hang out publicly in some neighborhoods i could get killed for being seen with someone from a different religious group ten years after the war iraq is still struggling to find peace as the ghosts of its sectarian past haunt the future. r.t.e. baghdad. as promised that the kaiser report is coming your way in a few minutes. six said eagle residents were thrown off of an airplane not for what they said but how they said it because they said it in another language russian in fact a paranoid and cowardly steward on the plane told them that they had to clear out

just for speaking another language to be here yes of some group of people were to commit a terrorist act then speaking in a foreign language would be a good tactic i can't deny that and for the code to america better get on the ball and learn to speak english adequately but there is a problem about fifty million tourists visit america every year according to the u.s. department of commerce and trust me not all of them are canadians if the u.s. is going to have millions of tourists arriving in traveling by air and don't be surprised when they speak their own languages if you're going to throw foreigners off of airplanes just for speaking their native languages then you're going to have to basically throw people off of half of the planes flying over the united states but that's just my opinion.

welcome to the kaiser report i'm max because or adam smith warned that people of the same tray seldom made together even for merriment and diversion but for the conversation ending in a conspiracy against the public or in some contrivance to raise prices that's fricken out of smith who said that stacy max for proof of this we are going to look at an image of men of the same trade getting together for the purposes of merriment and diversion it would look like from the photo in this is barack obama in february twentieth levin meeting with steve jobs to his left mark zuckerberg of facebook to his right then you see the c.e.o. of twitter the c.e.o. of yahoo across the to.
