lobe is driven by the commercial impact of pirated material the united states and the you flora shun commas how can you all party which advocates less straight copyright law was hope. we want to reform the copyright laws because of the copyright laws are old now i mean the world has changed so much just in the past ten fifteen years since the internet really grew big not only in europe and america but also in the rest of the word so the copyright has to be reformed it has to be possible for people to copyright material and to share it with their friends and it's also something that is of no harm to the copyright industry copyright actually works as a p.r. basically so it's a really really good thing we want to have a copyright law that works with the time and with the users and with the people

that love culture and want to share it not to work against it. at the core your party focuses on no free flow of information how does they lend figuring your part is thinking. the right to personal integrity is incredibly important important for the pirate party and it's also very closely linked to file sharing because if you want to stop file sharing someone somewhere needs to know everything that you send and receive with our computers. you all know what we do with computers today i mean we work over the internet we data over the internet we buy things we communicate with our friends so to have someone monitoring everything that you do online is a huge integrity infringement. and we have basically we have the edward snowden. edward snowden revealing the american spying on the internet and mean that this is a huge problem that we need to deal with and it's a problem that the whole world has to deal with because it's it's not something
10:11 am
that the american citizens are targeted with it's something that everybody who uses the internet is potentially targeted with clearly and you just mentioned how has this surveillance candle in the united states affected your party and it's important how much does the public cat. i think the public cares a lot the problem for for my party and for other people who are interested in. maintaining the right to do your private life and your right to personal integrity is that's the traditional parties do not really want to talk about these issues because they have their own security surveillance scandals that are brewing in sweden we have something called the a for a law which is also which is also a kind of state monitoring of amongst other things internet activity so the traditional porters do not want to discuss this and this is a problem for us because to to have a political debate you have to have you know you have to have

a counterpart you can debate with yourself so that is our challenge trying to get the message out to people. even though no other parties in sweden really want to discuss these things. troubled leader of sweden's pirate party thank you very much indeed for talking to us thank you. thank you abraham to dash of a young man who was killed while being questioned by the n.b.a. my have been shot in the back of the head while lying face down on the ground so it's a private investigators hired to study the case it were his father's character in b u r us where he says he will proceed legal action to see his son's killers punished and she's in a situation that might be grieving father that. a quaint residential neighborhood in florida and a father who can't hold back his tears. nothing will bring me peace as long as i live from the moment it happened i haven't been able to forget about it even for

a second barely containing his grief. takes a moment several times during our interview. a few days ago he arrived in the u.s. from russia to seek answers for his son in brigham's tragic death this is the entrance into the condo where twenty seven year olds lived minutes away from disney world it was here that on may twenty second after reportedly being questioned by officials for hours he was shot and killed by the f.b.i. under circumstances most of which remain murky. from reminiscing about ibrahim as a child who was very much into sports. to looking through graphic images that a parent should never get to see images that will haunt him for the rest of his life which four or five shots right into the heart i've never seen things like this even in the movies not in the u.s. not in russia nowhere such violence from law enforcement nowhere have i seen
10:14 am
anything like this in the morning father's on a mission to uncover the truth behind the f.b.i.'s killing of his son and he's even willing to say. this but i want justice honestly because an unprecedented intentional murder of my son took place. ibrahim came to the u.s. in two thousand and eight to study english and ended up staying to pursue a career in martial arts this spring he was questioned in connection with a triple homicide in massachusetts as well as the boston marathon bombings as officials believe the chechen young man had been friends with the deceased suspect a milan sir. the father says the only connection his son had to the tsar knives was a chechen background that had once probably. them to exchange phone numbers were given received multiple fatal gunshots to the heart and head during the night of the questioning the f.b.i. claimed a violent confrontation took place but has been blocking autopsy results from going
10:15 am
public some reports suggested breggin was armed with a knife others a broomstick but there are also claims that he was not armed at all demands from the american civil liberties union and the council on american islamic relations for florida authorities to hold an investigation were declined while the f.b.i. claims to be conducting an inquiry of its own as with now they would never be able to prove his guilt in anything because they killed him if they kept him alive tried him that would be a whole different story. showing us the postcards from american sending condolences to his family like he holds those behind his son's killing would show some heart as well. maybe the f.b.i. will have some kind of guilt resurface and it meant that they committed this fatal mistake for several years prior to his death ibrahim was not able to leave the u.s. while waiting to be granted a green card he eventually received permanent residence status and had plans to visit home on may twenty fourth but he died two days earlier. i'll
10:16 am
never get tired i'll do what i can i'm just not able to leave this. r.t. orlando florida. because trapped in a war paul a war later this hour full from the plight of the ethnic minority which has found itself in the way of al qaeda linked groups are aiming to set up and the sonic states that. most of these boys is the couple's a lot for violence or theft. but we drove the window climbed in and tried to start it. we pushed it a little way and here we were drunk. and soon who you're an alcoholic or nearly all of them are homeless orphans with no money or relatives. are you afraid going to

and without me. for a moment but there it felt like i was back with those street hooligans are going to beat me up at any moment. you know that i turned my back i couldn't help wondering about my safe. is an award and he's there the father you could say that slobber raises us he makes normal people out of ugly duckling. this is the house he welcomed by it seems down the clouds a gathering of the relations between the u.k.
10:18 am
and spain london is considering unprecedented legal action over madrid's lengthy tracks of the border into the british territory of drawing to downing street claims they are politically motivated royal navy warships are also expected to drop by the strait although it's claimed on shadowed exercises. explains. it all started with spain saying that it really wants to protect its interests mainly fishing interests as this whole spat this whole story was sparked by gibraltar's building of an artificial reef which spain claims is destroying fishing in the area and therefore it had imposed the border checks on those going to one from a gibraltar a british held territory of beer for causing a lot of delays and right now the rhetoric is escalating between britain and spain over the matter britain is threatening e.u. legal action over spain say what it says it's a politically motivated move and london mayor boris johnson actually said that it is quote unquote tantamount to
10:19 am
a blockade even used particularly harsh words saying quote i hope one way or another we will shortly prise spanish hands off the throat of our colony end quote and he also likened be actions of the spanish government to the franco e park the time of military dictatorship favorite sport as reported by the spanish press is a considering escalating this to the level of the united nations even floating around the idea of spain and argentina presenting a united front over gibraltar and the falklands. i want to clearly as britain boris johnson in particular is criticizing spade by raising the a franco iran you have spain you're highlighting what critics would undoubtedly see as britain's colonial behavior or habits and now all of this is happening as thousands of royal navy personnel have already set sail for the mediterranean in what the ministry of defense has insisted it is a long scheduled a training exercise well long scheduled or not it seems the timing is not lost on
10:20 am
the london mayor boris johnson as he said it quote the deployment should send a clear signal to the spanish and it seems that the spot is continuing to go on and contribute to option returns if things this condo is supposed to distract spanish people from real problems at home thousands of companies register their fake registrations in effect to avoid taxes it's like a some people call me just like some of the gangster island which britain wants to project for itself of course other people are saying that mariano rajoy. and his government ministers they want to avoid they want to create a distraction from the disastrous economy that now exists in spain as he continues policies a bit like britain's extreme austerity sixty percent youth unemployment of course in spain and the i.m.f. even saying that's going to last some time so this is a kind of diversion well the absurdity i suppose is that david cameron wants to
10:21 am
take it to the european court of justice and it was only a couple of weeks ago that david cameron here in his home minister were trying to pull out of the european court of justice trying to avoid the obligations. initially on the outskirts of syria's civil war kurds now find themselves caught right in the middle of reports suggest al qaeda linked jihad it have slaughtered more than four hundred fifty kurds including women and children and are believed to be holding many more hostage if confirmed kurdish leaders in iraq say they're ready to intervene human rights activist as a deadline is says the militants on access to natural resources that these groups seek a start going to islamic states they supposed to engulf the oil rich areas of kurds and they said they are supported very well by turkey so there are two factors one of them is that these groups want to establish their all islamic state mini islamic
10:22 am
state which is a project to establish a huge islamic state in gulf things turkey syria and iraq now they see that kurds are facing them all the kurds is a challenge to them the other factor is the turkey is pushing this groups against kurds because turkey is not happy that. are willing go to try to establish their own internal me in that region and because this region northern syria. courthouses happening around the world and another two car bombings have again repeat the peace in iraq killing at least seven people one of the explosions targeted a share loss south of the campus all but died around of one hundred people were killed in the country this weekend alone in a string of terror bombings and shootings july set a tragic record with a monthly death toll on a level not seen in almost half a decade. plus a gas pipeline explosion has rocked the state of illinois to the north of the
10:23 am
village of erie a one mile radius including part of the village has been evacuated with children and women among those taken to safety the flames are expected to be up to four hours despite fire crews managing to shine the light right over a third of them are within its core visitors and participants of the sochi winter olympics will not be discriminated against as a result of russia's new law against homosexual propaganda to mine is the country's interior ministry has dismissed any claims to the contrary as far fetched and baseless this follows a wave of protests against the new law by western l g b t community communities there's a constant flux now to what's causing all the reaction. the international reaction as well as domestic here reaction here in russia has really been handled 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
10:24 am
relationships russian lawmakers say that it doesn't outlaw homosexuality it merely discourages the discussion of it among people younger than eighteen 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 the 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 every 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
10:25 am
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 the homosexual propaganda in fact at least the texas haven't really changed over the years it also found that four out of 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
10:26 am
with people dumping a box in 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 thousand and thirty six of course that was in nazi germany but we should also states that most officials including us 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 limping committee alexander zuko also spoke out on this issue he said that russia
10:27 am
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 to feel comfortable and to of course participate in the upcoming sochi winter olympic games. coming up next it also happens when a single month takes on the challenge of looking after an entire olson and find out for a show breaking on opposite. the u.s. government project arrow marty has been in place for twenty years this project was designed to break the media monopoly on cuban television by putting u.s.
10:28 am
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 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 cubans 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.
10:29 am
he. was pointing to some degree where he was you tell to bring everyone together here everyone's here. you can you see everyone fifteen people really pleasantry it was wonder what fishing with you all to my eyes deceive me yes the world but of course when it comes to fishing he can do that for now as well but i ask him to call everyone together and nobody's here will remember why you are late what's the problem you know what i was doing you always mess everything up with you is that you. what am i doing film i cloud. most of these fifteen boys have been in trouble with the law for violence or whatever nearly all of them are homeless or friends with no money or relatives. we just love or uncle slava as he.
