freedom of speech. and the freedom to watch. millions of sim cards are at risk of being hacked in mere minutes thanks to a bug which could leave personal data are on phones wide open to anybody who wants it. every fifth victim of u.s. drone strikes in pakistan is a civilian reporter deals yet another blow to america's claims that only militants are targeted. and a think tank in britain that predicts an ever widening gap between the rich and poor and welfare cuts leading to quote speeded up thatcherism.

thank you so much for joining us here on r.t. today. with your world headlines the sim card in your mobile phone may be leaving it wide open to hackers and surveillance teams trying to steal your data up to seven hundred fifty million phones are reportedly at risk from an inbuilt bug which allows any third party to steal the sims encryption key. as the report. turns out that as many as seven hundred fifty million cell phones around the world could be carrying flawed sim cards that could potentially leave their owners vulnerable to financial fraud and surveillance now sim cards hold key user data and have up until now been generally known to be one of the most secure parts of a mobile phone however the recently discovered bugs could allow hackers to access personal information and carry out illegal transactions and this was researched and announced by thirty one year old ethical hacker and we're now in german codebreaker

of course to know after repeated attempts to hack into sim cards over the last three years you know says a shocking number of them can be hacked within minutes no has discovered a way to essentially get complete control of an individual's phone by finding out the unique encryption key of each sim card with just one hidden text message allowing quicker breaks into the system to do whatever the user of the phone is able to do and what this means is if there is credit card information or pay-pal data on that given cell phone being broken into that information becomes acceptable and could easily be used often without the cell phone use of realizing that this is being done before it's potentially too late forty's video agency abruptly spoke exclusively with cars to know who described in more detail the threats that this could all lead to. short term threat on criminals finally. take my food truck they will abuse the carts to send a message for instance they could also steal banking tokens from different

countries where this used looking at the midterm surveillance questions because to do encrypt hold the voice communications originating from the phone as well as data communication so all of this could be intercepted and decoded by a well equipped surveillance team now are no less known for his activity in exploiting vulnerabilities of secure systems and then providing companies with his findings so the. he can fix these issues before criminal hackers lay their hands on these technical flaws and he estimates that roughly a quarter of the total three billion sim cards using the data encryption standard throughout the world could be impacted by this research studies now conducted it's important to note that there has been no pattern identifying exactly which sim cards manufacturers are more more vulnerable than others but the security expert says it will take hackers about six months to figure out how to do what he has done and releasing this information now gives manufacturers enough time to catch up and

now fixing this problem the un international telecommunications union has dubbed these latest revelations quote highly significant and is now in the process of notifying agencies in almost two hundred countries. and another concern is u.s. security services don't even need to access your phone call to watch you and felt you don't even have to turn it on as much more about the n.s.a. it's very sophisticated spying methods are just a click away right now at all to dot com. and why all the operations of the national security agency now equivalent to nuclear secrets dot com explores how the organization is protecting itself to prevent the next edward snowden from exposed get it. right see. first strike. and i think you're.

on our reporters. in. the in the. thanks for joining us here on out to today a u.s. drone strikes in pakistan have resulted in a high number of civilian deaths this according to leaked documents from pakistani officials they report details attacked. over a three year period and contradicts washington's claims of being precise in targeting militants now a total of seven hundred and forty six people were killed by more than seventy drone attacks from two thousand and six to two thousand and nine the documents indicate that one in every five of those victims was a civilian also a lot of children were among them as well they made up about twelve percent of the total casualties and cia director john brennan has insisted that drone strikes are only authorized if indeed civilian casualties are to be avoided the result is

a guy nature can reports washington is expanding its operation to perhaps have a drone in every corner of the world. u.s. intelligence services want to have the world covered on top of spying on the world communications washington is expanding its drone surveillance operations as you know under the umbrella of fighting terror the u.s. now operates a host of bases in the middle east and africa a lot of these operations seem to have little or nothing to do with u.s. national security like the work that u.s. spy drones do for the turkish military so u.s. camera equipped predator drones hover above the rugged border with iraq and stream high resolution imagery to the turkish armed forces helping them pursue fighters from the kurdistan workers party or p.k. kate here you see a kurd to got hold of some pieces of a u.s. drone that either crashed by itself or was shot down not clear so there's this synergy between the u.s. and turkey where the turks host the u.s.

drone base and the u.s. does surveillance for them the u.s. is making other tradeoffs in the region and thanks to such favor exchanges it gets to increase its presence there oftentimes against the will of the people in some of those countries for example the pew research center has just released a survey showing that eighty two percent of turks disapprove of the obama administration's international campaign of drone attacks but regardless of the backlash the march of drones continues an expense for beyond known combat zones the commander of u.s. forces in africa told congress in february that he needed a fifteen fold increase in surveillance reconnaissance and intelligence gathering on the continent fifteen fold that's in africa the pentagon says the u.s. is also committed to increasing its surveillance in asia and the pacific. which effectively means be where china at the other end of the world in south and central america u.s. military commanders say they need drones for counter-narcotics operations so in

every region on every continent there was something to keep an eye on but everybody understands that it's not just the ny wherever there are the spy drones there will be the predators waiting right behind to go on a kill mission and washington's requests and that's where america's world policing or urges often clash with international law in washington i'm going to take them and i'm researcher in moscow has five hundred inmates including senior al-qaeda members are now on the run in iraq that's offered to a high security prisons nearby and were attacked by gunman killed at least twenty security personnel in a battle that lasted around ten hours before setting the prisoners free sara flounders the co-director of the international action center she told us here at r.t. that the prison break simply highlights the troubling security situation that continues to plague the country. the grave itself as a prison was notorious for us torture techniques humiliation sexual

humiliation tactics that were used it was turned back over to the iraqi government we have no idea if any conditions through so there was a prison break that we do know but we also really know that it's the us war and occupation that consciously created the sectarian violence of course al qaida or the government they don't serve the interests of the iraqi people but the policy of inflaming sectarian differences and consciously for mentoring and providing arms and funding and whatnot to groups who inflame sectarian violence that policy came from the u.s. of course the state of security for any of the people of iraq has been terrible has been terrible through the years of u.s. sanctions absolutely devastating during the u.s. invasion the years of occupation and it hasn't substantially improved since are

still ahead here on the program on r.t. hounding syrian army aides the e.u. decides hezbollah is armed wing is a terror group expert opinion on the possible consequences of the sanctions to follow. i do need ships it's a case of deja vu it was rival rallies of pro and timor sorts of morsy supporters they turned deadly again look at a country look to another full blown revolt. three time on the program a left left wing think tank is warning inequality in the u.k. could skyrocket in the next few years if indeed the government doesn't review its welfare policies or the fabian society says cuts to benefits will increase the gap between the rich and poor twice as fast as on the margaret thatcher in the 1980's a period known for high unemployment. now the study says that the coalition's tax and benefit changes would be as bad for inequality as the thatcher's government

record if not worse because by two thousand and fifteen david cameron will have been prime minister less than a half the time that margaret thatcher was indeed the situation is described as a speeded up action replay of thatcherism the reporters are urging different political parties to take action and reverse the worrying trend set by conservatives in order to tackle the budget deficit its author economist howard reed he says the most vulnerable though simply as usual the ones that are being hit the hardest obviously the u.k. has a really hard to say in public finances and we've been told that the austerity measures that the coalition government has introduced are necessary to get the public finances back on track although they haven't really managed to do much of so far but the point is that while they have rises and benefit cuts the injured used as the poorest families harder than the long sort of need who are hiring

the next round of cuts down to being mainly sort of social security benefits and tax credits which we. receive including the growing comes in. you know so we will we should be trying to encouraging what we're seeing in hit hardest it's going to mainly be families with children is specially and so the young younger unemployed. now the u.k. is rising rich and poor gap is also fueled by immigration with foreign workers willing to take jobs for much lower wages of course that's led to calls to tighten e.u. immigration investigating the trend artie's tester our city. with long term unemployment in the u.k. hitting a seventeen year high long lines of job centers have become a typical and while many britons are struggling to find a job a recent report by to finish academics says that immigrants from eastern europe are

seven percent more likely to be employed and this trend generally holds true in the agriculture business on this berry farm here in kent so workers spend about eight to nine hours a day picking berries in the sun in the heat it is physical work now under the seasonal agricultural workers scheme of the u.k. it's estimated that there are thousands of foreigners working on the u.k. farms. robert pascoe who runs this farm says there are between three hundred and three hundred fifty immigrant workers during the harvest season mostly coming from eastern europe remaining probably in the majority we need a supply of people who come in for the summer season and that's not so popular amongst the english people because they they want continuity is not considered to be. a profession for the same time you've got a lot of keen enthusiastic and bright eastern europeans to come for six months and

we see how bright they are they enjoy doing what they're doing and wish to stay longer and of course they're becoming more permanent like a volley or maybe he's been working on this farm for nine years do you mind doing all this physical hard work and i think i'm doing that if i was moving during that i would look here both of. them back in my country the report comes on the one hand amid the government's goal of decreasing net immigration to the tens of thousands and concerns that she migrant labor is decreasing local wages and on the other hand widely unpopular cuts to the u.k.'s welfare system which your work and pensions secretary says is in order to restructure the culture to discourage people from living off the dole and find work and stick with it most british people on strictly hard working and you know industrious we've also got an element it's true i think we've got an element of people don't want to work on the course you have big days but then you've got another problem which is the benefits trap and that's what we

should be concentrating on how do we get our people back into work how do we motivate young motivated and you don't do that by bringing wives and wives of cheap labor who just get on because them by the end of the year the e.u. is temporary work and travel restrictions a bulgarian rumanians will be lifted giving them the same rights to work in the u.k. as other e.u. citizens farm owners spirit. this would lead to bulgarians and romanians leaving farm jobs for hotels and offices and are calling for more temporary workers from non e.u. countries while others fear this will bring an end once again the sense accessing not only jobs but welfare benefits as well. to sociality r t can't and over and right now online team has a whole host of new stories for you this hour including for example. who's a quake in new zealand clears supermarket shelves of alcohol foster than a drinking competition at an eighteenth birthday party can check out the video

footage and in motion page of course as well as i see you tube channel. and another click away just on the website there it's not just the n.s.a. though even if your car is trucking you vehicles coming off assembly lines now have a special device and stoled to measure your speed driving. the website right now. with. science technology innovation all the least of elements from around russia we've got this huge you're covered.

live. it's r t with me rory sushi the kaiser report in a short while here on the program but for now the rifle rallies of supporters and

opponents of the deposed president morsy they've turned deadly again at least four people killed dozens injured in clashes in cairo also north of the capital thousands of islamist demonstrators attempted to storm to or square where anti morsy supporters have been gathered for weeks the police deployed armored vehicles and used tear gas against the crowds several morsy supporters detained however despite the turmoil the interim government is pressing ahead with amending egypt's constitution the muslim brotherhood refusing to recognize the panel tasked with drafting the document a journalist that he believes that after the recent violence military will employ even harsher measures to try and stop the protests. are actually have proven over the past week specifically over this week that the oil willing and planning to get to continue to paralyze the capital cairo the paralysis of the city

is in fact it could in fact hinder any any attempts to stabilize the situation by calling for elections or by trying to hold and assembly for the constitutional amendments probably will lead to further violence it will also lead to harsher crackdowns by the military and the police force on for all wars year pro protesters because you have evidence that this this movement is actually and is willing to use those ones against whoever opposes them. so with thousands dead and egyptians involved in seemingly permanent protest the decree of the country has gone full circle that is back to where it started and many feel the high price for no change is just a bit too much. investigates. lost says so has egypt is in sadness people are not feeling safe anymore from the day the revolution started we have not seen a happy day everything is there in front of

a bad to worse. fifty one people died in clashes on one day one of them else a noisy son met us and this was the moment of his death captured on film by the twenty six year old photographer he aims his camera towards a military sniper sniper fires and then suddenly turns the wife and points towards the camera lens the film ends and so too does ahmed's life. let's just say he's to think about these children that die and wonder what happens to their mother now i'm one of those mothers we used to say our country is the country of peace and security but all of that has changed. salicylate was one of those who fought for that change he quit his job in saudi arabia to return to egypt to be part of the revolution that overthrew president mubarak these are the ideals they fought and died for but more and more it seems

they failed simple demands i think egyptians want to see quick wins they want to see people who are really keen on change but if that doesn't come i think i think you know with why people like you know going to the street in i think it's becoming like a ritual you know what we need to get away from it to start building. for how long can you just go to the street is a popular joke doing the rounds in the country right now egyptians don't topple a president every day only once every two years but underlying the humor a glam reality a new pew research center poll has found that only thirty percent of egyptians think the country is headed in the right direction roughly three in four say the economy is in bad shape and fifty six percent are dissatisfied with the way democracy is working we want we deserve a better life we didn't revolve around the twenty fifth of the job to get such a target believe the brotherhood talk and or think they can

only benefit from egypt without getting any scraps of the people for two years egyptians have been on the street more than two thousand people have been killed for the families left behind is a growing since the deaths were in vain seen and the business the revolution did not produce a positive outcome for the people it's like the revolution has a new and started no one in egypt is happy if you walk in the street everyone is depressed everyone is talking about the problems that egypt is going through. and so two revolutions later egypt it seems has come full circle the army's back on the street for the second time in as many years i want to be it's the only institution that continues to get this. it's ratings seventy three percent of egyptians believe it has a good influence on the country but with the threat of street battles just around the corner if it doesn't play its concert even that is set to change policy on t.v.

. a search of the philippines to open up the anti world update is where at least thirty eight people have been injured in clashes with authorities thousands took to the streets to vent their anger at the president's state of the nation address in which he listed his achievements over the administration of protesters saying he's failed to make sufficient reforms after six years in power and want more to be done to battle poverty unemployment and crime. a homemade bomb has been found at a shrine in brazil hours before the pope visited it on his first foreign trip with the pontiff was also welcomed by antigovernment protests as angry crowds fought with the police just an hour before he arrived literally hundreds threw petrol bombs at the government palace in rio de janeiro police used rubber bullets and tear gas to disperse the demonstrators who have been out on the streets and now for over a month. ten people hurt when a passenger plane crashed on landing a little guardia airport in new york the forward landing gear collapsed as it

touched down causing the plane to slide off the runway and there were one hundred forty nine people on board the flight at the time of the incident. and u.s. congress has dropped its concerns over a plan to the syrian rebels as the white house prepares to send weapons directly to the opposition however many still fear the equipment could end up in the hands of extremists and a letter with an unclassified assessment of the options for u.s. military force suggests a no fly zone over syria would cost the u.s. about one billion dollars a month senators john mccain and call levon urging president obama to consider limited military action. or before we get to the kaiser report for now hezbollah's role in syria's. led the european union to a blacklist is armed wing is a terrorist organization and britain also accused the group of being behind last year's attack on a bus that was carrying israelis involve garia dr franklin lamb an international

lawyer and political analyst he sees the decision is a simple stunned that won't lead to any true action. they're still going to allow dialogue with hezbollah's political department just not the military way well that's nothing new how many european countries has been talking to be approved by a military when they're very secret they don't talk to anybody other thing is that the e.u. . placements are kind of like free the government of lebanon but that raises very interesting questions for among others lawyers you've got the hizbollah now that they dominate what the cabinet and also the legislature and the executive branch it would take a bite talian of lawyers to figure out the language and how you draw the line what did the e.u. do did they declare lebanon a terrorist are weighing because of the connection has bhalo supports the military we've seen that in the last several months does that mean that the lebanese army

now is a terrorist organization and the americans and the others won't get on bar of machine races anymore i mean it raises lots of questions i think what we're going to see is a european do nothing i don't think it's going to have any impact on on hezbollah which is a fundamental resistance organization and their real lives on the support from the people and not the europeans or it is time to upset the rothschilds and the big banks to save the world max keiser the kaiser for in just a second. i've

talked with you on many times about the absurd things going on all around us like kids being thrown out of school because they had a gun that shoots by. those are various people getting punished for their tweets and facebook posts it's all really abstract it's hard to truly get angry over until you see the results or played a stupid video game just carter sarcastically said to someone who called him crazy oh yeah i'm real messed up in the head i'm going to go shoot a bunch of kids at school l.o.l. j.k. and for this bit of sarcasm he spent quite some time awaiting trial in a texas prison not only that according to his father he was being attacked brutally on many occasions leading to bowl to pull concussions and black eyes and in the end he had to be thrown into solitary confinement for his own good you see this is the ugly reality of those who fought the bad side of political correctness you know i don't talk about these stories just for fun the main thing that like to say is that it wasn't for some anonymous coward in canada turning him into the authorities for doing absolutely nothing this young man would not have to live with the memory and possible injuries from numerous assaults to the anonymous canadian who turned him

in i sarcastically wish you a horrible fate but you probably get me arrested for it so just say that it's people like you who allow tyranny to exist but that's just my opinion. right to see. her street. and i would think that you're. on the record with. the.

welcome to the kaiser report max kaiser hey last week an anti counterfeiting raids across the world interpol arrested six thousand people in a season hundred thirty three million worth of fake goods not one of those arrested away ever was a central banker who had conjured up fictional national wealth by fiddling with chewy buttons on a quantitative keyboard nor were any of those arrested spoof trading high frequency algo bots generating fake liquidity with a very real front running no banker a broker trafficking in bogus or rivet is backed by delusional collateral no naked short selling silver manipulator and not a single robo signing mortgage forger nor a fake lab or rate giving baker was seized by interpol no it appears interpol made the world safe from one hundred thirty three million in fake shampoo but failed to spot the trillions and sham financial.
