save us from genocide curds call in the e.u. and the world for protection as the un launches a probe into reports that hundreds of kurdish civilians were massacred in syria by al-qaeda affiliated radical groups. nurtured a tad most was disappointed with president obama's decision to cancel his one on one with president putin of russia is giving a silent to n.s.a. leaker edward snowden. and do you care universities are becoming increasingly out of reach as a soaring to wish and fees mean bribe result from poor families are giving up on getting to graduation.

international news reports and analysis of this deal with me and to mom would say let's take a look at our top story this hour. and amid a mountain disturbing reports of civilian careers of targeted by militants in syria the ethnic group is crying for help the kurdish democratic union party has filed an appeal to the e.u. about their plight the u.n. is also investigating the allegations of ethnic cleansing artie's arena girlish grace one of the situation. the kurdish democratic union has officially turned to the international community asking them to pay close attention and to rescue them from the fighting that is happening in this region and essentially asking the likes of the un to help to save kurds who are being among the syrians who are killed on the basis of their regional and secretary and identity among them they're saying a lot of women children and the elderly and the in this statement the kurds are saying that these practices are fully alike with ethnic cleansing and genocide and

of course when they are talking about those who are committing these horrendous crimes they're accusing this sell a few groups and groups such as the a loser front operating in this region now we do know. of course that russia for a for a very long time was that was telling the world essentially to pay closer attention to what's happening in this region and. has just reiterated that statement in response to the reports which of which are still unconfirmed that around four hundred fifty people were killed in cold blood by the fighters of the front organization this point in response to our t's official requests to the united nations security services saying that they are investigating the matter on the ground there are people working there right now and of course they're extremely concerned with this matter because should these allegations in fact find any evidence of actually being true these will amount to war crimes the u.s. has also expressed their concern with the situation of course they said that they

would always be concerned with any such reports of attacks we have also spoken to people whose relatives were in these northeastern part of syria of course the relatives are talking about men being killed women and children and the elderly being taken hostage in fact the hostage taking situation is something that has been going on for quite some time in northeastern syria especially with the kurdish community. two hundred people have been certainly taken hostage by the fighters the leader groups who are saying that as as soon. drawdown is over and that is right now they are starting to work on these double strand of the al qaeda state in the region their ports that people are being kidnapped and killed in the horrendous as they sound it cannot be independently verified due to the dangers of their with and eventually became a lot is happening in northeastern syria right now. clashes between different groups have been escalating in syria with kurdish fighters are struggling to stand

against islamic militants pressing for more control in the north of the country and with all that information about attacks on kurds hard to verify we turn to kurdish journalist was on the isa to help us put together the timeline of the conflict let's take a look at that right now now according to him islam is a launch of the assault on the nineteenth of july trying to plant a bomb in a kurdish school and kidnapping local civilians the next day many houses across the kurdish includes were blown up one of the villages destroyed completely around five hundred codes were kidnapped while a radical cleric declared from a local mosque there those killing kurdish civilians will go to heaven also encouraging people to loot and destroy kurdish homes the violence continued into early august al-qaeda linked fighters murdered seventy could and abducted three hundred fifty german journalist karin aloof elder who's been following the report says a kurdish villages are targeted to be cut of the natural resources. actually what

is behind all this fighting is it's a struggle about control struggle about control of certain areas we know that in the area of fighting in the north and in the east of the country we have. fields and. at least two of the very big oil fields under the control of the kurdish defense movement and they have been threatened openly by you know western diplomats if they don't give the control of these oil fields towards the free syrian army. they will have a problem so i think it's a fight about control of both about resources of the various groups because the kurds are not going to deliver to their request. if the massacre proves to them is a natural event to be expected during war times this is according to a free syrian army spokesman who was challenge on the claims by r.t. is wearing a joshing regarding the syrian matrons populated mostly with kurds in the event the

conflicts are normal phenomenon simply because the syrian regime stands behind it to weaken the opposition and divide it and make it fight with each other in the regime. from tension between the opposition and radicals and terrorist. organization in response to all the florida killings and the arsenic cleansing in new york country. there is no ethnic cleansing in the f.s.a. its mission is not to massacre nor ethnically cleanse the f.s.a. it was established to defend civilians in villages and cities it's the regime which is practicing ethnic cleansing against syrians and killing and destroying them. but we keeping a close eye on what's emerging from syria's kurdish enclave then give you all the details on air as well as online. russia's saddened that president obama won't talk to president putin one on one even though both it will

be in st petersburg for the g. twenty summit next month washington says that russia granting asylum to n.s.a. whistleblower edward snowden was affected in that decision here's more from our teens are losing friends. moscow has expressed its disappointment that president obama has decided to cancel his face to face meeting with president putin on the heels of the g twenty summit in st petersburg ritually president obama had planned to fly to moscow for that meeting but in light of the edward snowden affair that has been shelved president obama shed some light on his reasons for this there's still a lot of business that we can do with them but there's been times where they slip back in the cold war thinking and a cold war mentality that president obama will continue his meetings as usual at the g twenty summit just with no face to face meetings with president putin at that time and instead of continuing to moscow he will continue want to sweden president

putin has maintained his same stance through the entire edward snowden debacle stating that russia did not ask for this problem until one of the united states and citizens cannot king at its start and should. we didn't invite edward snowden in russia was in his final destination anyway he was in transit but as soon as he began his journey his route was revealed and our u.s. partners effectively blocked him from taking any further flights they even made other countries afraid of taking him in. the president spokesman your usual cough has pointed out that russia has sought an extradition treaty with the united states for some time but that has been repeatedly pushed off the table and in fact russia has request extradition of its own citizens back to russia repeatedly one that stands out from a dog of a soviet army officer who joined with the militant movement in chechnya in the one nine hundred ninety s. and he is wanted in connection with terrorist acts by he's been sheltered in the

united states offered asylum and extradition requests by russia have been repeatedly denied in that case and these are just some of the instances the kremlin is pointing out to reiterate its stance on the fact that it sheltered edward snowden the u.s. president's not been preaching over the snowden situation comes despite a washington not extraditing some of russia's most wanted man either by your political analyst says obama's cancellation is just damage control to save face at home. the notion of putin as bringing the foreign policy trajectory back to the cold war is part of the us propaganda machine you see the the decision to grant temporary asylum to snowden was not merely a political one it was one that was made out of sheer necessity by putin in the russian government because frankly they couldn't have allowed the mellow drama to continue on in that airport and so what we're seeing as it's being reported in the

media is that this is kind of a tit for tat harkening back to the cold war but i think that what we're seeing is actually practical politics this is really face saving on the part of obama so that he can play kate not only the conservatives on his right there who vehemently attacked putin the russian government at every turn while at the same time attempting to portray himself as consistent on the issue on the russian side of course as i mentioned the government really had little option but to grant the temporary asylum there are further revelations from edward snowden about german spy agencies working with the n.s.a. to you we've got the details on r.t. dot com along with a timeline of everything that's happened with the whistleblower say. british students feeling the burn from three full tuition fee hikes and huge lanes on scaring off more and more people from ever going to university and it's mainly

days from poor families who are missing out on test has a silly and explain. london twenty ten young people furious at the government's plans to triple the tuition fees cap to nine thousand pounds a year for the new batch of incoming students the impact could be even more palpable but because the numbers of students from the backgrounds coming to university are increasing slowly. sort of the government sort of denies that this is a problem it's pretty dire situation in the u.k. and particularly around the issue of choice you know. you have to choose to take on the act or you choose to be an employee but really there isn't there isn't really a positive solution either way for james walkley the choice was to drop out he'd been in university for a year but decided to stop and try to find work instead of folks honestly working for a living for a change them rather than just getting by dates than whatever the syrians are monies or whatever what is available to students because i do come from what i

would consider a deprived background i also feel that it's doesn't take a genius to work out just by looking at the phrase that the universe as it is now is verging on a death trap for most james dreams were put on hold and display is by no means unique in two thousand and twelve overall entry rates in england dropped thirteen percent with the universities and colleges admissions service directly associating it to the rise in the cost of the degree we quarters of colleges and universities in england it could be charging at the top level fee of nine thousand pounds a year for at least one course in twenty fourteen and around twenty seven percent could be charging at that level for all of its courses and all this despite claims by ministers in the past that the levels will only be seen for exceptional circumstances where the fees it now so that could very well be the norm. students. being forces take on this huge debt that the government says doesn't affect sort of

the rest of their income but that's not true if you're trying to say for a mortgage things you need to live it will have an effect on what happened effect on mary's. and the government keeps threatening to change the terms and conditions of those loans in response to r.t.c. the government said there will be no change to the terms of interest rates charged to graduates with existing student loans taken out before two thousand and twelve which is cold comfort for someone like me with twenty five thousand pounds of debt hanging over her head says sounds like a full time job that's when i started coming out of my and monthly salary my fees for three thousand two hundred and pay here and now face has gone up to nine thousand pay and i still find the impact of class hard and i want to. spencer melman for not going to uni says all this financial insecurity is making young people more open to considering other options than going to university apprenticeships is a really valuable way forward you're learning

a sector you're getting a job getting a qualification and hopefully a full time job at the end of it we're not into uni atoll it's just about understanding the options that are available and having a real choice is really all the james is asking for feel a lot of negative it's all the government for a fact that education is being marsalis strictly for people who are far less financially well off backgrounds juster sylvia r.t. london. most stories ahead for you here on our t.v. including want to answer to greece's money troubles not thousands of defined activists across greece refused to pay they'll start a surcharge on the electricity bill and reconnecting debts of peoples of poet to their hearings a report on that shortly after the short break. explains

is in the united states on a mission to restore his country's credibility and thomas morris will need to present obama late on thursday to talk economy and foreign policy the white house already praise athens for working very hard in challenging conditions but the greek people seem to be growing tired of unfulfilled promises of recovery as he got the skin off reports. for millions of europeans it's impossible to imagine a life without things like refrigerators ac's television computers and electricity in general but no matter how difficult it may be the reality is every month more of those living in the cradle of european civilization are being forced into the dork . forward two years now christina hasn't been able to pay her over tricity bills she can't find work and nor can her brother two daughters or their husbands. as the bills begin piling up i had to make my priorities and this is where the food comes first i want to pay the bills and i want to be a case of the state but the state hasn't been ok with us with one in four greeks

currently unemployed christine is far from the only person who's electricity has been caught off and that's where these guys come in and young radical and very determined activists from the i don't see movement illegally reconnect power to as many as two hundred homes per month for free. the vast majority of the society is to be. sunk into poverty only a few of them few families across the world to have the ninety nine percent of their. wealth that's not something that. we want to bear. they reconnect ocean city to homes or disconnect power from little souls making them sweet for motorists or sometimes the talk of the underground today the i don't pay movement has over ten thousand members across greece and is gaining supporters despite being targeted by more than one hundred unborn more seeds no respect to do it you know we say that the

thousands of people with no relief they said it will be no electricity to feel war to this woman to leave will warn them because it's a very big city most people that greece's government continues to promise economic miracles despite the country's status having been recently downgraded to emerging market. but the greeks are tired of empty promises and now more and more are taking matters into their own hands even if that means breaking the law or you're just going off athens. well hard present your peers continue counting the pennies governments purse on with austerity there's one sector of society that's far from feeling the pinch in fact bankers are still enjoying big bonuses and salaries what years are it is business presenting with the details the underlying problem that cake started the european debt crisis greedy bankers being

but the biggest disparity of or is between the haves and the have nots as the rich continue to get richer and the poor even porat and the very people that created the financial storm which brought on this era of austerity continue to pick up fat salaries for their efforts. so what is a coup not a coup the u.s. government spokesperson on says in riddles one question to over the status of egyptian military maneuvering which also mohamed morsi we've got that story online . by gigantic google pass our word for all puts millions of users at risk so all of that and many more of the stories that are to dot com. right see. first trip. and i think the trip. on our reporters were there.

everyone respects a promise written in stone promises written on the internet well they're a bit more flexible and a lot easier to erase obama made a lot of promises as a candidate on his site change dot gov including some about protecting whistleblowers and obama said that we need to empower federal employees as watchdogs and that he would strengthen whistleblower laws to protect federal workers works both waste fraud and abuse of authority and government but strangely and possibly coincidentally two days after the first revelation of government spying by stoughton these promises of the change dot gov site were taken down if this is not just some odd coincidence and they consciously chose to hide obama's campaign promises that this is political cowardice at its worst and what is even worse is that they didn't think that this would get exposed almost immediately if you try to conduct some sort of medieval book burning to destroy information on the

internet then you are only going to get burnt yourself but that's just my opinion. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else you hear or see some other part of it and realize that everything you thought you knew you don't know i'm tom part of the big picture. welcome to the kaiser report imax kaiser did you ever get the feeling that we were all lab rats of the neo see it all calm manic controlled casino corporate state
