syrian national coalition plans an official summit with the un security council on bringing peace to the country of to bargaining for weapons with the us and reports say they might actually get. used to russia on the run the while this is all see with me. hello and welcome to the program. the egyptian military and the riot police are moving into tahrir square with helicopters and armored vehicles thousands of supporters of the ousted president mohamed morsi govern the square and clashes with his opponents break out elsewhere in the capital most is now on the investigation of allegedly siding with hamas startup into its military facilities during the twenty eleven revolution the

army has now given his muslim brotherhood posse until saturday to join the interim government's reconciliation plan and stop and signs and violence on his boucher reports now. what these charges stem from is from when mom and morsi was in detention in wanting a tree prison during the eighty's they are rising in two thousand and eleven he was why you see that i'm going to be here but it's a prisoner because i'm missing but it's very much against the current hebrew from facing the chinese mosque prison break and what the charges here are saying is that he collaborated with hamas to actually break out the prison to kill police officers and also you saw him just repeating possibly kidnapping offices as well as possibly running down prisons and these are very heavy charges to see him basically to show you sign many people here saying some people here are saying this could be a political action from the military to basically ensure the mohamed morsi never

comes back into office who is going to happen however isn't this kind of accusation levelled against owsley to do nothing to stop the tense atmosphere here and will really just why offer his support is already hundreds of gathered here into the square in supports all of the miniature you off the gen the i do it the does she see who is the head of the army the people do you come down to the streets against terrorism he called it now we're also going to see mass protests and support the military across the capital and crush the country today and meanwhile we still have a sit in in support of the ousted leader mohamed morsi. just across the capitol there you know by the way most can all say i to my right across the nile at cairo university now their leaders are saying they must come on the streets to defend morsi i'm asking you to my president he must even thank you with these new knees. and you know mostly we expect tensions to be extremely high the military has given

the mission by the head forty eight hours to get them both the political right not they didn't outline what would happen if that forty hours which is to just been issued on saturday many fear that we will see the financially already you know here in the capital when fifty one people were killed inside this primo she says in. a few weeks ago so really what we're feeling right now is a lot of very long and atmosphere here people are warry these rival protest groups may clash the security forces might crack down on their use in support of mama new c.n.n. . and let's discuss the situation in egypt where the muslim brotherhood spokesperson mona live has more to alcatraz welcome to all scenes great to see you here to make of the allegations against president morsi how strong is the case against him. the allegations are very clearly politically motivated president morsi has been kidnapped for three weeks now no one knows why and where and with who is kidnapping

him obviously it's in violation of his human rights and then after the training he was three weeks they fabricate fabricate allegations against him and this is a very clear job done by the prosecutor who was actually initially appointed by motor what we're seeing actually now is a this is a. he is the president of the country and egypt is essential for the peace process in the middle east so egypt has been playing a mediator the role between the different palestinian parties between palestine and israel between the different play players in the political scene in the middle east so we. find those allegations are using and politically obviously motivated in violation of all human rights and violations of everyone's. human rights and is your posse going to adhere to the his request to sit down for talks within about forty eight hours or so. the army should not be interfering in

politics what we're seeing now is a is an authoritative an entrance of the army people are taking the are dominating the political scene using the power of bullets and tanks and the famed opposition who failed to enter the political scene using the other boxes they came leaving the scene on the back of the tanks what we're seeing now is that the military is controlling the political scene which is which is back to the military rule we in twenty eleven when the egyptian revolution which obviously participated in we wanted civilian rule and president morsi is the first elected civilian leader in egypt in the modern history and we don't want to go back to military telling us what to do and what not to do because the military in the political scene actually causes an imbalance and this is not what we should be seeing in twenty thirty minutes here taking our boys forced using the force of the tanks and obviously we're proceeding i have a violation of human rights the start of less than an hour after the coup was orchestrated by the military junta in power now ejaz and also in human rights as in

arbitrary detentions are saying we're seeing the tensions of the political leaders or you can get access shutting off the t.v. channels and detention of journalists and also your party i mean the muslim brotherhood party has dubbed the defense ministry troops call for rallies quote a call to civil war however the general was specifically said he wasn't demanding for violence he wasn't called for violence all danger do you see in such rallies. the what we're seeing and on the streets of egypt for over thirty days now people have been protesting in a peaceful way hundreds of thousands and millions of it demanding they're. demanding their democracy back and their democratic choice is about what we're seeing actually is that the minute the minute the who believe that or generally sisi came out came out and in a way that he was asking for a mandate to actually create for violence why would someone could also put

a mandate to combat terrorism you don't ask for a mandate this is your duty so the mandate is actually also going forward is actually a mandate to commit crimes hideous crimes like the one we've seen in front of the republican guards we've seen also crimes against women he told they specifically target women in the peaceful demonstrations in egypt which is obviously it's a very very clear that unfold in egypt in the democratic process in egypt we've been dreaming for the biggest democracy in the middle east right muslim brotherhood spokesperson at monterey thank you very much indeed for sharing your views. germany wants to tighten the screws on the data protection regulations it comes after another launch of criticism and anger over what some see as the government's failure to deal with a scandal which prevailed in massive u.s. surveillance but many germany viewed the move as

a simple attempt to win back political points ahead of september's general election petone of all reports now from belin. so two of germany's most senior cabinet members have written to the e.u. counterparts to try and get them to push the united nations to change their current privacy legislation that all seems well and good especially when you consider that the current privacy legislation was written way back in one thousand nine hundred sixty six long before things like mobile phones facebook the internet all of those things that the n.s.a. have apparently looking into now this could be a genuine effort by the by the german ministers to try and help the privacy of the people of the european union or it could be something of a smokescreen and a bit of damage limitation i have to consider that germany was one of the major helpers for the national security agency when they were spying on people around the

world in fact the b. and d. the german secret service operated one of the major parts of prism this was called the x. keyscore program that basically looked into what people were searching for online and five hundred million data connections here in germany were checked or were available to be checked by the n.s.a. now this all comes after a week in which we've seen angela merkel originally claim that she only heard about n.s.a. spying through the media then turned out that in fact germany was one of these major partners now the germans have an election coming up a big general election coming up at the end of september and the german people are understandably upset by the amount of information of theirs that was being looked at whether edward snowden knew that he could be a big influence in the german elections when he decided to leak these things will never know but what's the certain is he definitely and the information he's brought forward will definitely be used in the upcoming weeks and months before that vote

or considering the involvement of germany and other countries in the n.s.a. spying program it begs the question whether this is a legitimate attempt to improve the previously of the citizens of the you or just politicians attempting to cover up the fact that they've been caught with their hand in the cookie jar. and was applied to dr alexander diggs the a burden commissioner for data protection and freedom of information and he things german politicians are moving in the right direction by attempting to change on privacy rules no matter what the actual motives are. under german law and the german constitution there is a fundamental right of informational self-determination of privacy as you call it and data protection commissioners all over the world have for a long time called for an international treaty to have privacy regulations in place to protect individual privacy and data when surfing the internet and crossing

borders and now the n.s.a. scandal is just the last tip into the voted to do this problem to make it completely clear that we urgently need an international agreement in this fear but what we're seeing here is really excessive secrecy protecting excessive surveillance and that cannot go on as it has done in the past we need effective control and we need limits to what the intelligence services are allowed to do. excuse manda while germany is engaged to revise gale when it comes to surveillance some of us from the states ago are doing exactly the opposite and so big brother is getting big a new zealand as the country's leadership wants to expand its spying program in the name of national security check out the story of r.t. dot com.

moscow russia's security agency is in talks with the f.b.i. over the fate of whistleblower at what murder but a crime in spokesman has once again reiterated that the n.s.a. contractor will not be extradited to think their last snowden is seeking asylum in russia and waiting for the paperwork to allow him to leave transit zone of last adult it's been stranded that for more than a month while in washington don't work as a pushing for trade or other sanctions to be imposed against any country that grants him asylum russian authorities haven't decided on snowden's request yet but three last american countries already said they would shelter him nicaragua is among them its president exclusively told r.t. why snowden would be welcome that. i think the threats coming from the us work against them it's ridiculous power like the united states threatening a young man who's had enough courage to tell the truth about something that went against his principles a man who realized at a certain point that he could cross the line of what is called intelligence work he

understood where intelligence and lawlessness begins and that lawlessness has nothing to do with secret operations the war on terror with protecting state interests or with the search for scientific information a point when he sort of this is sheer madness because it isn't normal it's not like the us are forcing the europeans hand in this is just that they have something in common common positions a common strategy and the same desire for global domination they want to impose democratic principles on the world they want to judge all nations. well he's been investigating well lots of americas aversive onto your sentiment could lay upon our people living in the region already to be friends with washington but only if it stops exploiting their countries as tools and treating them like sevens on that style so calm. peace process what peace process the palestinians have suffered over four decades

of illegal israeli occupation in over twenty years of the so called american sponsor to go she got to the question see little why are obama and netanyahu and abbas interested in history does it have anything to do with peace or are there other agendas in play. the judge is essential. to children the streets. that women kidnapped and converted to islam. will there be another layer of motives for the coptic christians of egypt to the existence of. future victims. the way of the cross.

this is also you welcome bonk the cia could already be preparing for comparing to all see when rebels and that should be started to sneak in weapons into neighboring jordan us according to anonymous u.s. diplomats their reports started to come in after they syrian national coalition met with u.s. secretary of state john kerry new york with weapons shipments in the zing agenda into an informal session with the u.n. security council is also sells a com. has more. i delegate representing the syrian opposition is in new york city for a three day visit that kicked off thursday afternoon during a bilateral meeting between the group and us secretary of state john kerry prior to

the closed door discussions kerry said that there could not be any military solution to the syrian crisis only a political solution not a political solution is expected to be ironed out at the upcoming geneva two conference co-sponsored by russia and the u.s. however it is no secret that the syrian opposition would like to receive the weapons and military aid that the obama administration recently promised to deliver to rebels that are currently fighting against syrian president bashar al assad that topic was likely addressed when kerry met behind closed doors with the visiting delegation which is being led by the president of the syrian national coalition ahmed jarba what some experts are questioning at the moment is the overall legitimacy of the syrian national coalition critics say the group has no official power and lacks support and recognition inside of syria now the syrian national coalition was founded in doha and is based in stamboul some see this group as outsiders lobbying for more arms to import into syria's already bloody civil war

during the meeting secretary kerry conveyed washington's commitment to helping strengthen the syrian opposition however several u.s. lawmakers have publicly opposed providing weapons to rebels arguing that the arms can fall into the hands of terrorists and members of al qaeda who are fighting alongside anti assad groups now according to the un's latest figures more than one hundred thousand syrians have died in the nearly two and a half year civil war and with more weapons and ammunition expected to arrive in the country from washington ending the violence may be calm even harder reporting from new york marine up or niam our team. washington's plan to stop sending weapons to seaward rebels set off an alarm among some u.s. lawmakers to run the poll said it's this same as their regularly on interests here all they have to say out. to these in opposition politician

mohamed brahmi was killed with the same gun that was used to assassinate another prominent secular leader in february the latest findings of the country's interior ministry to an easy is now facing a second day of protests over the killing with businesses across the country closed and that are. canceling all slights the country's general labor union has called for a national strike to express that anger thousands clashed with police on thursday after mohamed the brahmi were shot dead in front of his heart by two a. local reporter some teahouse more now from tunis. and there were hundreds and hundreds of submissions to our side of the main have you to notice the police used tear gas squares crowds multiple times as small who rejects are. gathered in front of the ministry of interior and police used tear gas water to disperse the crowd and there were different crowds in different places in

many respects to get outside the hospital where he is by the was there where protesters outside of the headquarters of. the government has been telling people that their. progress is made in see any concrete results. the constitution is not ready and it's been. two years since. we started with. the elections the next elections there is no specific dates etc so people have been already frustrated and there was mention of the economy and foreign minister. rami was a member and former leader of the secular people's movement party who was also on the board drafting a new constitution for the country but mr risks not just on a board told us his death will significantly sunbonnet that process. i think it's quite a serious impact for the drafting of the constitution primarily because that is

actually given quite a few concessions to the secularists and i think the secularists now will be pushing for even more concessions from but the trouble is that i think the killing is likely to polarize both sides. the more that secularists blame enough the more that the right wing of the nutter is likely to take a defensive position. try to accuse the secularists of trying to undermine them i mean after all they were democratically elected so it makes it more difficult for the moderates on both sides to really come to a compromise on the constitution there are still some outstanding issues on that people are accusing enough to of having made revisions to the draft constitution that haven't been approved by the other parties involved. so i think it will polarize things more in terms of drafting of the constitution and delay things quite a lot. now for some international news in bringing this hour a day about tonks across iraq has left more than forty people dead the bloodiest

took place when a massive blast ripped through a cafe in a small town to the north of baghdad killing twenty interreligious the talks have left hundreds dead this month alone raising fears full blown violence between shia and sunni muslim groups could take hold. the black boxes from the train that hustled of the trucks in the northern spain on wednesday are being analyzed by us to gauge as police now say seventy eight people died in the crash of this comes amid reports the driver who is now in custody was ordered to slow down just seconds before the accident two official investigations are now looking into how the train derailed. prosecutors and the uighurs have charged five carrying out of three hundred million dollars saw the country's largest ever online crime the russian armed ukrainian manhunts into security systems stealing credit card details which they then sold worldwide and amber of major global companies were allegedly targeted by the man including dr

blue airways are the french helpful. in the closing arguments and the bradley manning trial prosecutors have accused the army private of being a traitor and acting with evil intent planning is charged with twenty one offense for revealing sensitive military data to weaken leaks is a raid it pleaded guilty to several of them but rejects the charge of aiding the enemy which could see him trailed for life as closing arguments continue justice activist elizabeth cohen time from the brennan center for justice as mine is being dragged over the coals for leaking documents that never should have classified. the government presented no evidence that here for literally intended to harm the united states which is what a traitor is that he's not legally accused of being a traitor that word does not appear in any of the statutes against him but i think we all understand that term to mean somebody who's an enemy of the state and said

to her in the country there's been no evidence of i mean one thing about this case has demonstrated is that the government keeps secrets that it shouldn't be keeping in a million years and does so frequently the charges that the government brought against yelling addressed all really tough. a subset of the information that he allegedly disclosed because so much of the information is quite obviously not sensitive and didn't cause any harm and we just don't have a good system in place for dealing with people who leak classified information when that information was improperly classified in the first place and what we have instead is over prosecution. exactly seventy years ago cuba saw the beginning of a nationwide coup that ousted you as banks dictator but to stop this so the seeds of american is not only on the liberated island but all across latin america. and found out the u.s. did to still have such sentiment. latin american leaders defiant speeches against

the us are a regular occurrence these days but what is fueling their indignation when we want the united states to be over foreigners like russians or barney like brasil like india like all other countries you know emerging powers are friends of us not our bosses the history of how washington alienated itself the neighbors is best illustrated by the events that led to the cuban revolution sixty years ago back then the us supported the autocratic and corrupt regime of president but the step who ruled the island for the benefit of very few people there the u.s. ambassador to cuba at the time early to shred of. said iran cuba from the sixth floor of the u.s. embassy the cuban job to grow sugar and shut up some historians argue that the revolution and the subsequent alienation of the island state might have been

avoided had the us been more considerate of the cuban people were rushing to when all was. in its convenient use of a rich elite class to rule account of their bastard rashed aspirations are pure lation it never really wanted or help your aged or ally with the markers just four years ago the us supported the coup that deposed hundred assist democratically elected president since then the country has been descending deeper into an abyss of human rights abuses and instability the united states does not want a series of or more elect this is the reason they didn't like chavez because out of sugar as they got morality yes and they got that's libya guys and they got the guy in ecuador. and so if they get another one in under it and that starts

all. track child this is nationalization of the country's oil industry as well as his subsidized oil shipments to cuba that irritate washington for use in two thousand and two the bush administration supported the coup against the late president chavez mass protests brought charges back to power and set the stage for worsening relations with the us it's not just for fair to the science policy it's just the benefit of your corporation and to destroy those countries those people in order to integrate their economies and to be less dependent on the u.s. politically and economically south american nations have joined in a union called humus sore. what you have is a desire on the part of the region to have rich own foreign policy and all economic policy they don't want to be manipulated

and they want to be respected by having looked at latin america as its backyard to which it can dictate policies washington has alienated the people in a host of those countries people who would otherwise have nothing against the u.s. in washington i'm going to check out. on the right after the break. announce it talks to the developer of the digital currency base klein. boy oh boy there are a lot of conspiracy theories out there from mysterious extra planets drip killian creatures living among us but there also may conspiracy theories that are very plausible and some that are well actually true. one that i've heard for a long time is that they are specifically trying to fool the police with dimwits to abuse the american people which is silly right writes according to a.b.c.

news a discrimination lawsuit revealed that robert jordan was denied the chance to become a new london police officer because he was too smart his entrance exam score was a thirty three which is an i.q. of one hundred twenty five and it was just too high to allow him to defend the public good that police department only accepts candidates who have scores from twenty to twenty seven the logic is that people who are too smart get bored as policeman and they're more likely to quit after years of costly training. yeah this is proof of a conspiracy theory well the lowest score of the accept is still around an average i.q. so that doesn't mean they're specifically trying to fill the place with sub par people but it does seem really weird to fear people with high i.q.'s entering the police force this case to have a confirms nor denies the conspiracy theory but is definitely food for thought and does a kind of not make sense to discriminate against anyone ever for having a high i.q. .
