the gay community who were calling for russia to be stripped of the games for introducing on they believe it is an anti-gay law to stick out in a higher towards causing the strong reaction. the international reaction as well as domestic here reaction here in russia has really been hinged on what the law does and doesn't do and there's been a lot of misconceptions about it so let's really break it down now the bill criminalizes the public expression of support for so-called nontraditional relationships russian lawmakers say that it doesn't outlaw homosexuality it merely discourages the discussion of it among people younger than eighty and now the law doesn't outlaw gay sex which was actually legalized in russia back in one thousand nine hundred three it also doesn't explicitly ban the participation in gay pride parades the problem however is that the defendant of propaganda is rather vague and it's based on intent so anyone who distributes information for example with the intention of persuading minors that nontraditional sexual relationships are

attractive could be accused of breaking this law any individuals or organizations who are accused convicted of violating it face fines foreign citizens could potentially face up to fifteen days in prison deportation and denial of the entry into russia now will most activists believe that this law will not to be widely enforced there is concern that it effectively gives some local governments carte blanche to say to ban gay pride parades and to discourage people from discussing lesbian gay bisexual issues on the internet so that's the worry the thing to keep in mind however is that russian society is very traditional and conservative and there is in fact a lot of support for this legislation here domestically the independent center a polling center here in russia had actually found that seventy three percent of respondents support any government efforts to curb homosexual propaganda in fact at least to texas haven't really changed over the years it also found that four out of
7:16 am
five russians say that they don't have a single lesbian or gay acquaintance so that is why there's been such a difference in for example the western and. national reaction versus the reaction right here in russia that's a perfect opportunity to sort of make political statements for whatever issue that comes up this is the the main sort of social hot button issue that's been raised internationally originally the law had sparked a boycott of russian vodka and gave them bars across north america and elsewhere with people dumping a box and front of russian embassy as eventually the calls moved on to boycott the twenty fourteen winter olympics in sochi and one of the prominent british actor stephen fry of course raised intense controversy when he wrote an open letter to the prime minister david cameron as well as the international olympic committee suggesting calling for a boycott suggesting fact that there should be a boycott of the cames even comparing them to the games held in berlin in one
7:17 am
thousand and thirty six of course that was in nazi germany but we should also states that most officials including u.s. president barack obama had said that the boycott is unnecessary and that these games should continue to be attended by the athletes now here in russia the russians forced minister said that foreign athletes will be expected to respect the laws of the country but the head of russia's a limpid committee alexander also spoke out on this issue he said that russia will do its best to effectively keep the guests on the participants safe and comfortable that very mixed reaction internationally but russian officials are trying to encourage athletes to feel comfortable and to of course participate in the upcoming sochi winter olympic games. don't forget it would go a plenty more stories for you to catch up on at our website. place where whistleblowers supporters of us only private bradley manning who is facing up to

7:20 am
demonstrates a change in dynamics is a global shift the u.s. has been the top or a consumer since the early ninety's so while we've seen this shift with the father china's growing they need the oil for that they need it for their cars for their factories for the infrastructure but really aligned with this is what's going on in the u.s. domestically the shale gas boom they're far more self-sufficient than ever before so this could have a big impact you think on the global it was mostly yeah i think the people who are set to benefit of iraq especially that's where the most oil goes to more than half actually comes from iraq and the middle east in general but russia is also going to want to listen into this we know that russia wants to tap in being neighbors into this market just make china more attractive this data really but as well as that it's not just about economics is about politics as well with the oil market because it is such a to mulches region the oil producing countries and the maybe pressure on china now

7:23 am
to manage or to manage it every day of population so they are they are they have this concerns that kurds my be in conflict and with them especially kurds are secular multi-ethnic respect multi-ethnic multi-religious society in the region and also there is another factor which is the turkish. interests in. and making the kurdish region unstable or because turkey has its concerns regarding the. autonomous region which kurds are aspiring go are seeking to establish in the syrian kurdistan and also turkey is supporting these things these groups kurds they are evidence for this. of course suggests extremists want to form a independent emirate in syria is north but why that.
7:24 am
the same place they want to establish their own islamic mini state is they supposed the oil rich areas of kurds and they said they are supported very well by talking so there are two factors one of them is that these groups want to establish their all islamic state mini islamic state which is a project to start. islamic state in gul things turkey syria and iraq now they see that kurds are facing the kurds as a challenge to them the other factor is that turkey is pushing these groups against kurds because turkey is not happy that. are willing go to try to establish their own internal me in that region and the kurdish region northern syria. all right human rights activist. thank you very much indeed for sharing your views with us thank you well coming up it's very can be said with the most.

the u.s. government project arrow marty has been in place for twenty years this project was designed to break the media monopoly of cuban television by putting u.s. government propaganda up to t.v. screens this injection of american t.v. works with a blimp and a c one thirty military plane working in tandem you know this would actually be a major achievement in the history of technology if it actually worked this program which over the years has built up a billion taxpayer dollars simply does not work but continues to exist despite the cuban government completely blocking the transmission the official logic of continuing the program is that it would send
7:26 am
a bad message to the cuban government if they stopped brilliance and action but the big question is who gives the u.s. government the right to propagandize cuba just because they have a different lifestyle doesn't mean it is wrong and the u.s. government does has the right to destroy it and even if cubans on mass actually do hate their system then it is their job to change cuba not the military industrial complex and its cronies in washington but that's just my opinion. michoud free credit taishan three pounds for charges free range chickens free. three stooges free. food free books to feel for your media projects a free video done to our teeth dot com. i grew up near me

what's up guys i'm having martin and this is breaking the set you know you'd think that with all the uproar over the n.s.a. leaks we would be hearing at least some type of reassurance that warrantless spying would be scaled back you know obama has told the public that he wants more oversight agencies data collection program very few people are taking him at his word and one of those skeptics is former n.s.a. and cia director michael hayden who had this to say on face the nation. president is trying to take some steps to make the american people more comfortable about what it is we're doing that's going to be hard because frankly some steps to make americans more comfortable well actually make americans less safe great so not only is and mean unwarranted surveillance unlikely but the scope of secret spying is only expected to grow the hayden argues that another terrorist attack on the u.s. is likely to happen and when it does we should expect the n.s.a.'s data.
