language is not a problem x. keyscore can do different languages obviously x. his core is not the only data mining program that the n.s.a. uses earlier we learned about the prism program which the agency uses to gain access to the private communications of users of nine popular internet services x. keyscore kind of like looks like their search engine it's their google of course as an ordinary non terrorist citizen you may be perfectly fine with the fact that some analysts say analyst may know more about you than your wife or your husband does but there are those who are genuinely concerned about the growing power of the n.s.a. . what if they don't want to certain person in office someone who would cut their funding or something this country has a history of worth happy scandals after all president richard nixon resigned after a whistleblower what's the blower revealed that nixon's office had wiretapped his opposition what makes anyone think that or something like that can't happen today
6:04 am

6:05 am
the journalistic stakeout continues there. he is supposed to be making a statement later this afternoon on the verdict of bradley manning so everyone is waiting and watching to see when he or representative may come out to issue one of those statements by his father has had a very difficult time of it trying to make his case for snowden getting a fair trial and i hope you're watching your family as well and we love you i hope to see you shoot i would also like to thank president vladimir putin and the russian government for the what i believe the courage and the strength and conviction to keep my son shaved we have tried to recall aberrate work with the justice department to lay the groundwork to ensure that my son would receive a fair trial here although i know that assurances have been provided that he would
6:06 am
not be executed or tortured if he were brought back the fact is no assurances have been provided blonde snowden has also expressed frustration at the fact that he had attempted to a savage communication with edward via the f.b.i. but that wasn't able to happen so he he called into question a lot of the motives on the part of the f.b.i. and possibly using him as an emotional tool to lure his son out from from essentially his hiding spot at the airport. and another whistleblower who preceded edward snowden is now waiting to see how long of a prison gad until the latest on the sentencing of bradley manning and witness testimonies during those proceedings go to our website dot com. today's the day off so we need to themselves to take a decision on arming the syrian rebels there is an official deadline was set in may
6:07 am
when a u. ministers led by britain and france agreed to an is their arms embargo but says then they seem to have had a change of heart regarding weapons supplies to the syrian opposition over extremism concerns and these are also fears of a potential terabyte flow with more foreigners now fighting in syria with many coming from e.u. states a french official says this flow is unprecedented during the nine years of the afghan conflict only fifty jihad it's well and don't divide as going to the country while in syria in one year alone more than one hundred left france to fight against president assad experts say most will be. radicalized and join the terrorist ranks of al qaeda and al nusra front the total number of europeans fighting in syria is estimated at up to six hundred while the actual number could be much higher france's interior minister recently called the threat a ticking time bomb. there are reports now on why the u. could be wary of arming the rebels. while the u.k.
6:08 am
on the syrian rebels or not that's a question that's been answered a number of different ways it's a call that began to mostly in varying degrees to the right but ultimately always sending signals of support for the opposition it would be political for it unless the opposition is able to withstand the. and put pressure on assad there is no military victory so we will also increase our efforts to support and to shape the moderate opposition. to. we must ensure that these arms go to the syrian national coalition into no one else to one half years on syria continues to pay the delicate complex picture a battleground constantly shifting as it is with western leaders rhetoric in american twelve hour meeting in may you need or is agreeing to disagree on syria and the u.k. and france successfully getting their way even though they were at odds with the
6:09 am
twenty five other member states the european union has agreed to bring to an end the arms embargo only syrian opposition this is the outcome of the united kingdom it wanted rhetoric in the millicent and the need up to the libyan intervention also led by the same players it's remarkable there you go they could simply try and override the experience of libya because as a recent report said the. supermarket for the entirety of the of the middle east and if they were to go into syria that would be true to the power of attorney on august first e.u. countries can reassess their positions on syria and those who wish to arm the rebels may do so but as that day drew closer hesitation grew louder with david cameron acknowledging that there are quote unquote a lot of bad guys amongst the rebels recent reports from syria show all kind of affiliated groups wanting to establish an islamic caliphate and dissolution rebels
6:10 am
and defecting back to the government side before the the war in afghanistan and before the attack on iraq there was no al qaida in iraq there was no al qaida in yemen there was no al-qaeda in somalia there was no al qaida in syria but there is not an idea that's not lost on the british prime minister there's too much extremism about some of the rebels but frankly we do need to do more to help promote those parts of the opposition that want a free purpose to democratic syria and so we're not being the rebels this are cilia r.t. london. and of course all stories ahead for you this hour including the great by law burning a hole in europe in pockets to gauge the mood of journalists as obliged to chip into the greek rescue package as it emerges athens is facing and not the been in europe financial down some just a few minutes to stay with us from. the

6:12 am
stories that imply to. choose be access to. welcome back mrs arty let's move on now starting today russian websites will counter with content that infringes corporates could be shut down a new anti piracy law has put an end to years of uncontrolled piracy however critics claim it's opening the doors to censorship several websites have stopped working today in protest against the new regulations the next a shaft it takes a closer look at the legislation comparing it to those used by other governments around the world despite that statistics on piracy in russia has improved over the last decade dropping from ninety three percent in two thousand and one to a little more than sixty percent last year it is still a huge problem and it is rated among top five countries in the world in terms of
6:13 am
piracy let me demonstrate what you can do on the russian web for instance you want to watch a freshly released movie but you don't want to pay for it then you go to one of the famous social network websites and russia find the movie you want which is always a loaded by the users. and. there you have it credit to the owners of an administration of the website they're trying to fight this problem they're blocking the users uploading the illegal content but with fifty million users and even more than that registered for this website alone it is an uphill task something the new legislation is about to mend from now on if any website is having illegal content on it then it will be reported to a special governing body a watchdog body called who will then tell the website owner to remove this content within seventy two hours if the person refuses to do that then his web site will be shut down will be suspended until the trial in court it will be then decided
6:14 am
whether the person is innocent whether his conduct is legal and he may relaunch the site or the site will be shut down for good now this law even before it became a reality even before it passed the russian parliament caused the fury online and even some minor street protests with people believing that this will lead to censorship on the web this will lead to blocking of websites only on suspicion of having illegal content so some people believe that this new law will significantly suppress freedoms online and lead to online prosecution which is not quite the case if you read into this law but now let's compare how other countries worldwide are fighting the very same problem with piracy in two thousand and nine france passed the so-called dopey law which stipulates that anyone violating canton distribution rules is given to warnings on e-mails before the internet service provider is forced to cut off the use the internet access if the corporate persists he risks a fine of up to three hundred thousand euros or prison time of up to three years
6:15 am
the most liberal anti-piracy lloyd is believed to be in the netherlands and websites are technically outlawed but still downloading counted for noncommercial use is not illegal uploading it means breaking the law and possible prosecution japan adopted its anti-piracy law last year and it was immediately branded as draconian quite understandably some may say because. violating it would lend you a fine of one million yen that's roughly ten thousand dollars and a two year prison term often violators are punished with both it's worth mentioning that none of the above mentioned countries have registered an increase in purchases of legal content since adopting these laws how the new legislation works in russia which stands in between not only geographically but in terms of the law strictness but has a far more serious piracy issue will become clear very soon meanwhile in r.c. dot com four million dollars that's for us to get something cops will get him in a jail cell with five days without food or water. and also got all the latest on the bahrain op rising where yet another top activist has
6:16 am
been arrested that's just a click away at r.t. dot com for you. and let's now return to one of our top stories and the arming of the syrian rebels and jeffrey sorry got free blue is joining us now live for he is a member of the e.u. parliament and the u.k. independence party mr. brewer thank you very much indeed for joining us now it's hearty so the you can see france who are the ones pushing the e.u. to lift the arms embargo doesn't mean that london and paris will be sending shipments misspeak as. well of course it would be madness to pump alms into a situation which is already out of control and we have i'm afraid the western governments to blame for a lot of this a lot of this problem what they don't seem to understand is when they go into these
6:17 am
because when they influence these countries they don't seem to have any and game strategy so all we manage to have done in syria is see the complete destabilization of the rizzi regime we've seen murder we've seen mayhem we've seen revolution now we're seeing refugees pouring across the border because we don't understand how to deal with the problems of the middle east it's basically a mediæval society with unbelievable different interests the shia muslims those sunny muslims because the whites christians there's a whole pot boiling of problems out there and we don't ever seem to understand that now we've got another mess in syria we have a mess in the rat we've got a mess in afghanistan we've got a mess in egypt and we've got a message in libya why don't the western powers learn from any of this yes indeed we're trying to figure it out so the you can france has long been warned of course
6:18 am
of the extremist threat today on the rebels so why such a huge ten now then. well i think the whole policy was driven as these things very often are by the cia i knew could almost see the british prime minister the british foreign secretary read their instructions direct for the washington state to follow and as always of course washington don't understand everything which is why they get us into these terrible messes all the time. just how brazen the danger is in hundreds of europeans now fighting alongside alongside the rebels. well we have a problem don't we well we have so she of paths from western european country is joining the psychopaths the religious bigoted psychopaths who are already there i mean they come from priests head off the other day a catholic priest with a kitchen knife to chanting support of women and children were actually looking at some of these people you know from the stone age you can't expect them to adopt
6:19 am
paula meant to democracy what they had before was a not a very pleasant regime it was corrupt and it was autocratic but it was secular and all the people now better off now than they will before none of the no this is the trouble that we go on doing these things who who did benefit from our interference in these matters the answer is it's not the people we should have persuaded the current regime assad regime to liberalize perhaps when it came to their attitude to the democracy so on and several but where we are in the situation now it's called nothing but death and mayhem and worse western television western radio covers it up i haven't seen any reports on the beheading of these priests catholic priests the kind of the kidnap of wolf adults priests and the appalling things of the go to go mao so we've still got the british prime minister and the foreign secretary
6:20 am
still singing of the cia him feet and what we need to do is get some pragmatism back into the situation yes mr bloom and also it's reported an al qaida linked group in syria has taken some say hundred cadging civilians hostage would be counted separately calling for a bustling against the jihad it's this is no longer just a civil war is it. no this is we're turning it into a gangster society. ten percent of the population of kurds the sunnis are the majority the share is a minority but if you look back before all this started you know as a secular society people could go about their business and worship according to their own in their own views you know the the society that we've now destabilized by middle east standards not by western standards by middle east enders wasn't so bad so where are we now it's a complete shambles and i don't know how the devil we got to get out of this
6:21 am
problem now because it's reverting not to a secular state to a theocracy which which is obviously what was going to happen which is what a lot of people in the area wanted a theocracy and a theocracy which was supported by the american government we now have another another failed state thank you america all right go free bloom and if he and you came dependence upon the same end that mr bloom thank you very much indeed a weapon thank you. just days after paying another bailout lunch agrees the international lenders have found out athens is going to need billions more the eilat says the debt ridden greek economy is facing an additional financial shortfall of needing eleven billion euros over the next two yes' and that's by nice german taxpayers who are part of the euro zone strongest member and launch bad all to great kreskin oh now reports.
6:22 am
germany's politicians are being accused of keeping the country's taxpayers in the dark when it comes to just how much they going to be asked to fork out to try and get greece back on its feet financially the international monetary fund has highlighted it almost eleven billion euro black hole in the plan to try and get greece greece's economy working it also highlighted the need for the writing off of of many loans that have been given to the mediterranean country now all of this comes against the backdrop of the german finance minister being in athens talks there in amongst there will be giving a one hundred million euro gift to the greeks to greek people this is a one hundred million euro beef that supposed to help the development of. small businesses in the country not new in the news that they are well almost eleven billion euro short of what's going to be needed for fiscal renewal well that's not
6:23 am
going to come is great news to the greek people or to the german people who are going to of course be voting in a general election in september they're going to be told that more were of their taxes are going to be going to the neighbors in the south you know. it's almost assured that she will get the money that she requires however the german people that will be giving her that money best pleased about having to do it i think america will still manage to convince people without any proper extra. they were just trust i don't think that's a good thing because we forget about one of the paramount principle soft democracy people controlling the budget but unfortunately i think this will happen i'm sick and tired of this you know my money that the taxes are paid to go to greece those guys the retired fortune i have to pay for it here i'm absolutely tired of it it shouldn't happen this report from the i.m.f. also it goes to show that some of the more positive signs regarding greece that
6:24 am
we've seen in recent times like the leveling off of unemployment figures aren't really telling the whole story that there's still an awful lot of work that needs to be done before greece can be officially say that it's on the comeback trail when it comes to its finances. try to get economies around the world is trying to get back on track of the lesson to be learned is to get rid of big banks losing the world's financial system that's what marks kinds and stays how that explain and here's a sneak peek of the full kind of report coming up at sixteen platitude. talking about parasites tapeworms they burrow into the system and in the case of jamie diamond or lloyd blankfein or warren buffett they leads out vital nutrients and they kill the host some parasites are vital in the gut as part of the ecosystem of one's intestines when these parasites grow to these enormous sizes whether it's
6:25 am
a six inch long tapeworm in your brain that has to be pulled out through your nose as i believe the doctors in china did or they went in there what they surgical equipment or a sixty foot long anaconda tape worm like jamie diamond who's lodged up the strange thing of america's financial system leeching out the vital nutrients or in this case can leave in the economy in places like detroit to dive. now the news in brief this on vodkas of the ousted egyptian president mohamed morsi say they now expect a massacre of the choosing to ignore the bomb in cairo say tens police have been ordered to put an end to the protests with the military bang to store his calling them a threat to national security the country remains on the brink of chaos with clinchers over the weekend leaving seventeen dead. until government protesters captured a city council building in rio de janeiro last night they were rapidly disclosed by police armed with stun guns and tear gas with clashes been break at and breaking
