live tonight on our team russia says it has evidence that syrian rebel fighters not government forces used chemical weapons at an attack on aleppo back in march that's according to moscow's envoy to the united nations it's a top story this hour also. the muslim brotherhood in egypt urges the nation to rise up against the military following the ousting of the president and monday's deadly clashes in cairo this is the interim leader reveals the transition timetable now for a new government. the international stalemate over edward snowden moves a step closer to being resolved now venezuela confirms it's received a formal request for political asylum from the whistleblower on the run caracas earlier signaled his willingness to offer him refuge from u.s. prosecution. and there's the marks of his voice that outrage over the force feeding

of guantanamo bay hunger strikers during the holy month of ramadan a popular american rapper finds out firsthand just how painful that procedure can be. here in moscow now tonight this is our t.v. one is kevin and it's good to have you company first in russia says rebel syrian fighters not the army were behind a chemical attack in aleppo four months ago which left twenty six people dead the russian envoy to the united nations says that conclusion was reached after samples taken from the site were analyzed moscow's no hand of the evidence over to the u.n. for more on this is go live to washington correspondent and you can bring us up to speed if you would know a little bit more about what's come out here what was found. kevin as you remember the u.n. investigation into the use of chemical weapons and near aleppo never materialized

the syrian government requested such investigation but so. do you want officials demanded access into all syrian facilities which syria denied insisting on the investigation of that particular incident anyway that u.n. investigation never happened but nonetheless the u.s. came forward and said it had evidence that the syrian government used chemical weapons but there were a lot of questions as to the sources to which they got the evidence washington brushed up all reports that rebels could have been behind the attack the syrian government wanted the incident clarified and requested russian experts to look into what happened in khan near aleppo which they did and based on that analysis russia says there is every reason to believe that it was the armed opposition fighters who used chemical weapons in khan take a listen. the results of the analysis clearly indicate that the ordinance used in kind of a cell was not industrially manufactured and was filled with sudden the sudden

technical specifications proved that it was not industrial manufactured either the projectile involved is not as standard one for chemical use and therefore there is evident you seem to believe that it was the armed opposition fighters who used the chemical weapons in khan. russia has just submitted this analysis of on site samples russia's u.n. on the envoy also underscored that on like other with. russia's samples were taken at the project impact point by russian experts for certain he said they were not handed over to russia's through third parties which was apparently the case with us analyses the samples were analyzed that an internationally recognized and certified russian laborde three russia also says it has information that so-called bashi are all nuts or brigade affiliated with the free syrian army began the production of bashir three unguided projectiles in two thousand and thirteen and they were used in the march in the march attack in light of this russia cost to the un to look

into this and for the international community to consider all evidence at hand and any indication of what the u.s. reaction is going to be to the russian claims so you know. well kevin when asked about the evidence that russia submitted to the u.n. president obama's press secretary yet again brushed off the report saying we seriously doubt anybody but the syrian government could use chemical weapons in syria the fact of the matter is that the u.s. has already decided to arm the syrian rebels under the pretext that the syrian government has used chemical weapons although the evidence that the us suppose we has was not verified by the u.n. so you have a huge gap of trust with the u.s. on the one hand insisting that the syrian government has used couple chemical weapons and russia on the other hand thing that you have to look at all evidence before you take such a dramatic action is flooding the region with more weapons and correspondent in washington thank you. at least six hundred fifty people have been arrested in egypt

as of sorties that investigate monday's clashes which claimed at least fifty lives most of the detail in the uses of forces of the ousted president mohamed morsi and his muslim brotherhood movement the group called for a national uprising against the military which is currently holding power on his part of sleep reports next from the egyptian capital. well funerals are being held for the victims who were killed during monday's massacre that is according to the muslim brotherhood who is to move it in one way some fifty one people killed it comes amidst the muslim brotherhood calling for supporters to go to the streets in a nationwide protest demanding again for the ousted president mohamed morsi to be reinstated there is still a lot of confusion in terms of what actually transpired on monday morning according to the brotherhood it's protesters were holding a peaceful city there were holding dorna prayers in front of the republican guard headquarters building where it is believed that morsy is currently being held when they suddenly came under fire from the army they were provoked this is in stark

contrast to what we're hearing from the military they say that they came under fire that it was armed gunmen who scaled the roofs of nearby buildings they were hurling molotov cocktails firebombs as well as huge stones at the army who were forced to respond in self defense the army saying the fact that two policemen and one soldier was killed is evidence that they were under fire and that there was simply trying to protect both their lives the lives of the protesters and the installation that they were protecting well the first point that is worth making is that we are hearing from the interim president adly mansour now he has issued a five month roadmap to taking this country toward some kind of democracy and according to the roadmap the constitution will first be amended this will then be ratified in a referendum in december you will have parliamentary elections and then in february a presidential poll the muslim brotherhood has rejected this hour flight but when you talk to people here on the streets they say that the real culprit is in fact

washington now washington has kept mum it hasn't really made any statements calling this a military coup and this is largely because it puts washington in a very difficult position as a cause of a military coup it will be obliged to stop its military aid to egypt the if it. those are startling since nine hundred seventy nine the u.s. has spent some sixty eight billion dollars on funding of military are of the egyptian military the u.s. covers some eighty percent of egypt's military spending the figures again are huge some eleven thousand five hundred egypt officers were trained in the united states between the years of two thousand and two thousand and nine now this translates into about two point five percent of the current egyptian military who've received training across the atlantic and the most notable among them is the current head of the army general sisi when you talk to people here few doubt that even though

washington hasn't come on board and actually said this was a military coup ultimately washington will end up supporting the army they point to history the fact that america supported mubarak he was in overthrown in a place by morsi they supported morsi and this is why you have these probe morsi supporters so angry today they accuse washington of double standards on mideast north africa responded paula slayer there in paula's posting regular updates on the situation in egypt on a twitter feed that she looks into the dilemma faced by washington which want to cut aid to the egyptian military if it does the day admit that a coup has taken place follower than for the latest on. a senior advisor to the muslim brotherhood you heard her dad told me earlier that the group's members are ready to put their lives on the line in the stand against the military. it's a military coup against a democratically elected president a thursday it has never had despite the performance you don't bring down presidents because of that bad performance otherwise most part the countries of the world's brothers would have been brought down what you do is you engage in parliamentary

politics to bring up a government that's capable of delivering on its promises and you cycle in every turn what happened at the moment is that the military coup took over the government and they have almost overnight resurfaced a complete police state cracking down on political leaders attacking and killing protesters that we've seen yesterday morning closing down parties attacking media professionals closing down channels a complete police state in action this is unacceptable to twenty first century they can't stage the same coup they did in one thousand fifty six so if more bloodshed is involved it's par for the course it goes with the territory than here if more bloodshed is involved there will always be our blood in our blood seems to be cheap enough for the military joined they don't protect us in fact actually complicit in attacking us an attacking our protest in cities with our blood is the price that is needed for this country conscience to wake up with the rest of the world's conscious to wake up we would be glad to getting it but we still remain peaceful we will never engage in any violent retaliation if we become the punching back well that's something we have to deal with but we all these people here behind me are

here by choice they have carrying their shrouds saying that if this military will kill me because i'm standing for my right to choose my leader through the ballot box and i'm dying for this country. i was you had to down there see your advisor to the muslim brotherhood it's a bit early to tell a member of another islamist faction in egypt the party roles of the crisis could escalate into civil war doesn't take place. that might tend to a national war and we think that without. a national dialogue that's true. from. the parties. even. freedom and justice and all the extremist that will end to this national war. that's why we are seeing the sooner the better. coming to look at the guantanamo bay hunger strike in the controversy of the force

feeding of inmates through the ramadan fast now soft break. wealthy british style sun. sometimes. markets why not scandals find out what's really happening to the global economy with mike's concert for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune in to kaiser report on r t.

i would rather i asked questions for people in positions of power instead of speak on their behalf and that's why you can find my show larry king now right here on r.t. question more. elegant ever snowden's play for political asylum is that looking increasingly promisingly fugitive u.s. intelligence leaker now is three latin american countries venezuelan a correct your ability or willing to offer him refuge from prosecution of his own land. in new york us more in these developments. venezuelan president nicolas maduro has confirmed that the country has received an official request for asylum from n.s.a. whistleblower edward snowden and he now says that there needs to be a decision of when he will fly to the country if he accepts. that point being made

if snowden accept it but how he will fly out of russia is the main concern you see there's no direct flights that go from russia to venezuela there has to be a connection made in cuba and in cuba while we have heard the cuban leader raul castro voice some support for edward snowden it hasn't been made clear by any cuban officials if they will supply a safe passage for edward snowden if he were to decide to go to venezuela now clearly edward snowden is searching for a new homeland he has applied according to reports for asylum in twenty one different countries and he did release a statement a week ago saying that he is now stateless and he's coming back to his homeland because of facing unfair prosecution or possible possible like imprint in prison or a death sentence if he feels he would not face a fair trial in the united states now while opinions about edward snowden and his

actions are still very divided there is a lot of people that support what he has done there's a lot of people that criticize him and say he's a traitor but one thing that cannot be denied the fact is through edward snowden's revelations about the n.s.a.'s pervasive spying programs within the united states and abroad we have come to realize and know that the top u.s. officials have previously lied about the country's spy programs and this is caused many to wonder if the u.s. if u.s. officials could lie about surveillance programs what else could they be fibbing about tell the truth or someone might just tell it for you does the city collect any type of. a millions or hundreds of millions of americans. sure. it does not. not wittingly there are cases where they could inadvertently perhaps collect but not not wittingly in

america it's a crime of violation of a federal law to lie to congress during testimony i responded in what i thought was the most true for least on truthful manner by saying no the us director of national intelligence james clapper publicly acknowledged his error only after n.s.a. whistleblower edward snowden spilled the beans on america's clandestine espionage activities the director of national intelligence is now apologizing for what he calls his erroneous response to congress over n.s.a. surveillance programs one of those covert programs indiscriminately collects the phone records of hundreds of millions of americans secret surveillance once criticized by a familiar face no more illegal wiretapping of american citizens no more national security letters to spy on citizens who are not suspected of a crime but upon entering the white house u.s. president barack obama seems to have had

a change of heart my assessment and my team's assessment. was that. they help us prevent terrorist attacks government lies surrounding the n.s.a.'s programs has raised questions about the possibility of additional untruths being told in the name of national security i have been crystal clear about my position on iran possessing a nuclear weapon that that is a red line for us the fact is u.s. intelligence officials and the united nations have concluded that iran is not currently building a nuclear weapon but that hasn't stopped washington sanctions if we're throwing accusations that are not true that cloud the domestic debate the political debate and also send negative signals to the other side we make it much more likely that diplomacy can succeed and we end up going into a war that was of avoidable. in the case of syria's civil war the french and

others had already. concluded that he's using the sharon gas in small quantities but again here's this is the red line and we alleged they killed between one hundred nine hundred fifty people washington recently began arming the rebels after independently concluding that damascus used nerve gas against the opposition findings u.n. investigators have not supported. reasonable. here in haiti we haven't in the british who are you know u.s. government under well as for the whistle blowing website that aims to expose the truth the u.s. has listed wiki leaks as an enemy of the state until the obama administration comes forward with a way to roll out open this into the national security debate there's going to be a problem of people trusting working ministration is up to the american public has

witnessed a top u.s. official lie about the nation's pervasive surveillance program. and an n.s.a. contractor reveal the truth yet only one of those men is being punished and prosecuted for their actions and if people can't trust not only the executive branch but also don't trust congress and don't trust. federal judges to make sure that we're abiding by the constitution due process and rule of law then we're going to have some problems are. welcome to your problem mr president marina are teen i mean. well with all this leaked information from edward snowden we're merging to build up more more of a picture of how the american surveillance system globally works it's a complicated kind of scary picture to the more you find out first off there's a futuristically named nuclear system now this is what listens to your phone calls rover the may be directed it's also thought that it catches if it catches

a suspicious keyword that will then be flagged up and then it will be subjected to further scrutiny is that so that works then there's the similarly cryptically titled pin well system this program is said to troll for suspicious activity through videos on the web whether she lives skype call with friends or family even a you tube video that's been uploaded up next then who your phone where your phone from when you call them also still but what's known as main way this system is reportedly capable of building a facebook like friends list a profile you just recalling how bits and lost that we also know of something called marina as well it's a program in charge of recording your online life it's said to be able to catch tool and record you send the emails before they even reach the recipient they just for some of the systems that we know of that make up america's surveillance network there could be more to as we get to know about it we'll tell you how to course as well as financial guru max kaiser well he's pulling no punches has ever when he's

talking about the n.s.a. scandal he says that the a theft of personal data by the u.s. government hugs back to nazi germany. i want to read more about that there's an article from him at r.t. dot com our web site will be showing you the latest on the show as well of course because reports on in ten minutes time tonight. the u.s. federal court has condemned the force feeding of going turn of a bay prisoners as a painful humiliating and degrading practice but at the same hearing the judge turned down a request from one of the detainees to end the practice ruling that only the only person that has the authority to do that is president obama well calls to enforce feeding i've also come from leading muslim figures in the country to say god should respect the religious fast of ramadan which has just started this comes prison authorities claim the jury in the islamic holy month force feeding will only take place at night hunger striking going tell them a prison is now entering its six month with one hundred six out of one hundred sixty six inmates taking part in

a protest against inhumane treatment an indefinite detention without trial of those forty five are being force fed i spoke with from the council on american islamic relations he believes the protests won't stop until real changes are made at that facility. our position has always been that it's wrong to force feed detainees that's a position of the international legal experts it's a position of medical ethicists it's a position i have every right thinking person who doesn't want to see detainees abused in this way and whether you do it during the daylight hours or it after sunset it doesn't really matter wrong is wrong the only reason these people are carrying out this hunger strike is because they feel desperate they feel that nothing will ever change for them you have to give them some hope somehow that the situation is going to change otherwise what do they have left. well with simply no

letup in sight to the situation a growing town about vista trying to show the public just how bad force feeding really is i'll be martin looked at one such attempt in a program breaking the set here and i'll tell you watch the full show and i website r t dot com we'll show you a bit now be warned you might find the following footage coming up upsetting. case you still don't realize how horrifying this procedure really is rapper most def recently volunteered to take part in the standard operating procedure for force feeding get no prisoners and here's what happened when he tried. when it was seen. here to demonstrate the standard operating procedure to force feeding detainees at guantanamo bay. thank. you.

both of those. i know. me like you do. i don't know about you but i was very difficult to watch in fact he couldn't even do it he later said it felt like an object to syrian his brain just imagine in forced against your will to encourage this kind of treatment not once but twice daily so crista most def or even attempting to do it just to send us a powerful message now it's our job to make sure that message doesn't fall on deaf ears. what. we're about to do if you've ever seen anything like

that. i've. read posts pretty bankers could soon face jail time for conduct for misconduct while managing banks chancellor george george osborne has backed tough rules for the industry now but his response to proposals from the parliamentary commission on banking standards is already drawing criticism nazis tester is still has the latest on this from lunde. call for the for jail time for bankers who are accused of a reckless behavior that has gotten a lot of coverage because of the how big that statement is he is supporting in the parliamentary backing commission's recommendations essentially on stricter guidelines we know now that the banking reform bill is up for debate in a part of the whoever the critics are pointing out that osborne they simply don't believe what he is saying that it would that it will actually amount to anything basically they're saying that the legitimacy of banks have been eroded so much out

of financial crisis that was simply forced to say something like that in order to appease his critics well let's get more insight to what this all actually means for us studies a financial trader you are in the industry should the bankers be shaking in their shoes right now because of this big statement from osborne. well some would argue that the best punishment for the banks would not be the sort of jail them but to stop what has been going on last few years bailing them out with public money every time to get involved and maybe time to bring the economy to its knees banks need to realize that most important currency in the world is not sterling it's not the dollar it's not the euro it's not even gold it's trust you lose trust of the public lost perhaps that trust will be regained if they start seeing bankers who are guilty in handcuffs but will it actually take place i mean there are those who argue that this is simply was or was simply dragged into saying something like this will it actually happen i'm sure there is some political element to this to win

populist votes with the electorate there's no doubt about that and will it work one thing. will tell you that satisfying the british criminal definition of criminality is going to be very difficult specially when it comes to something like this in the banks to prove because in british law we have is something called ments rio which is the mental elements of a crime how will they prove the. element the mystery of recklessness you know in response to banks one aspect of this question yes or no do you think anything will change no the public should realize that. essentially unless they wake up and wise enough the market is rigged against you ok the market will always be rigged against them all right so it's nothing going to change thank you very much for that well as you know it's there stricter guidelines being debated in parliament however news like financial regulators having found the twenty seven point one billion pounds hole in the balance sheet of some banks now is really that big the confusion

of the disconnect between the talk and what is actually being done tests are still available we know who is on the case mexico is in fact what it's like to stop the world's financial big wigs coming up after the break kevin o. and c. with more news here in international about thirty five minutes time. remember how all the sudden the avent card protest group became world famous and then were completely forgotten by the next month yeah i'm talking about the feminist punk rock group pussy riot that performed a vulgar anti prayer and one of moscow's most famous orthodox cathedrals one possible reason for their explosive popularity in the media's eyes was revealed

recently by a german actress on a book the actress claims a german t.v. channels e.d.f. paid three large undisclosed amount of money to come out on behalf of the activists banned show said on a t.v. discussion that she doesn't even remember what she said except for wishing well with dealing with their incarceration it would be very odd for an actress to just make up a bribery scandal especially one she was complicit in but it makes you wonder just how many other people may have been given a little extra motivation to cry travesty overall i think that most. important said her public revelation that she said that you know what it's a bit dumb when actors talk about politics and i couldn't agree with her more fascist my opinion. right. first trip. and i think you're.

going to. be in the. welcome to the kaiser report on max keiser you know decades after world war two a handful of japanese soldiers held out on loans across the pacific refusing to surrender or not even knowing to surrender today several lost decades after japanese financial equity and property markets collapsed millions of salary men also refused to surrender the hope that one day their monthly allowance might actually increase.
