i welcome you watching r.t. this morning coming to you live from moscow with me andrey farm. master antigovernment demonstrations are planned in bahrain and the government has promised a strong response today marks the country's forty second anniversary of independence from britain and exactly two and a half years since the current wave of unrest started police confronting protesters and foreign clouds of tear gas these things have become common in the gulf nation ever since the uprising began despite constant talks between the ruling sunni family and the opposition the shia majority in the country want a constitutional monarchy with a government which is chosen to in a democratically elected parliament artie's lucy catherine of details the key events of the unrest over the past two and a half years. a majority shiite country ruled by the sunni al khalifa family has been a rocked by political unrest since twenty eleven and for the past two years the majority

shiite opposition has been pushing for democratic reforms and more say in their government but those demands have been met with an iron fist so let's take a look at how these events actually unfolded in february of twenty eleven a day of rage thousands of bahraini is gathered in unprecedented demonstrations against the country's rulers several people were killed some three hundred injured when security forces raided the protesters who are camped out in the country's capital and the foreign minister dismissed the violence as accidental but there would be no resolution as the unrest continued troops from saudi arabia and the u.a.e. entered by rain in order to help suppress the uprising the king declared martial law the following day the forces moved to clear hundreds of demonstrators from a camp that become the symbol of the uprising arresting more than a thousand protesters including leading opposition figures now over the summer eight shiite pro-democracy activists were sentenced to life in prison for the on

the uprising later that fall a government inquiry had found the security forces used excessive force to suppress the protests even torturing detainees in order to get confessions now marched on one of the biggest demonstrations in bahrain's history that same month the u.n. commissioner for human rights criticized him for disproportionate use of force in the tear gas we had left to more than thirty deaths now in february twenty third. policemen were killed in clashes that took place the following month on the second anniversary of that uprising and ahead of today's protests the king toughened penalties and anti terror laws approving proposals that have alarmed human rights groups which fear a quack down on the demonstrations. it's an arab spring revolution that has been forsaken by the arabs abandoned by the west and largely ignored by the international community but without meaningful reforms or cranes uprising it's not likely to quiet down anytime soon so bahrain toughened up pace and the protests

lost last month drawing condemnation from the u.n. and other human rights groups. is a former bahraini and pay for the country's largest opposition party and had his citizenship revoked for allegedly threatening national security he told us why the western world isn't doing anything about the harsh crackdown by bahraini authorities there have been. lots of violations and bihari but unfortunately there isn't really anything in the list syrian media regarding all the violations torture is really. pretty sure of the united nations on torture have been stopped from going to lottery but that has no. shame. in being legal and. of course over the past we three of the major human rights groups and this is the internet human rights

watch and redress they have issued a very strong urging floor of the for the u.k. government was in goal was to stop supporting the dictator and try to enforce respect of the human rights but unfortunately the money and the patrol dollar talks higher than the principles and the worst that is very unfortunate. we've got plenty more coming up including big ben is watching you rubbish can spawn on passes by on the streets of london it's not science fiction but science fact will tell you more in a few minutes also ahead stare at the sheets greece is children are to explores the human cost of the parents whose kids are caught in the crosshairs of government attempts to save money. right from the street. first street. and i think the church.

on a reformer with their. instrument. could be in the. now middle east peace talks are already under pressure after israel approved over two thousand new settlement homes in the west bank and east jerusalem negotiations between israel and the palestinians are set to resume for a second round in jerusalem but expectations are low the two sides have been brought together for the first time since twenty ten but the settlements issue has been around for decades the battle over ten thousand square miles of territory between the jewish community and the palestinians started back in one nine hundred seventeen when the establishment of a jewish homeland was approved decades later the arab israeli war ended with israel

in control of most of the territory the gaza strip was controlled by egypt and the west bank was occupied by jordan while jerusalem was divided following the six day war in one thousand nine hundred sixty seven israel captured the sinai peninsula from egypt and the golan heights from syria and although the israeli army didn't annex the west bank from jordan it started to occupy the area after decades of fighting israel share of the land has grown from three percent to almost eighty and israel's plans for more settlements may derail the peace talks artie's porus leah has this report. today for the first time in three years israelis and palestinians will be resuming direct talks in jerusalem this follows parity talks that will hold a fortnight ago in washington but both sides are skeptical and no one is expecting a breakthrough the problem is that these talks are resuming against the backdrop of

an announcement by israel that it is expanding its settlement this announcement came on sunday where tel aviv said that it had approved the expansion and construction of some one thousand two hundred new settlement units in east jerusalem and the west bank now the european union has warned that this is in the eagle palestinians also warning that this will cause the negotiations to collapse before they even begin they accuse the israeli government of trying to sabotage these talks and they also complain that current israeli settlement growth is at president of levels israel has rejected this criticism it says that every peace initiative so far has proposed that the settlements affected become part of the israeli territory the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has officially said that he wants these talks to succeed but the problem is that both his government and the israeli public split over them it is also reported that even the u.s. secretary of state john kerry want to netanyahu that israel may be confronted with

an international deal of victimization campaign to quote carry on steroids if these renewed peace talks with the palestinians fail to be food it's only a twenty six of one hundred and four palestinian prisoners that israel is releasing as a confidence measure to bolster these talks we'll see if we convicted by israel of carrying out attacks against israelis before he also holds all nine hundred ninety three israeli government said that this was a difficult but necessary step but there have been demonstrations in israel by both whites when protesters and also friends and family of israelis who were killed in attacks carried. don't buy at least some of these prisoners you should know exactly what giorgio to be called he's out according to our poll held few weeks ago eighty four point nine percent are against this deal many people here and he's out here to the polling did and the greek prime minister and government we feel betrayed

because we trusted them prime minister netanyahu has been heavily criticized over this decision to release these prisoners some say this is a step in the right direction while others say it's definitely not so you have an israeli prime minister who is in a predicament on the one hand the right wing members of his cabinet off pushing him to expand the settlements on the other hand you have those who are putting pressure on him to make progress with the palestinians as for the palestinians themselves him us which is the leadership in gaza is not part of these negotiations and refuses to be you have other factions that are threatening to sabotage the talks earlier this week a rocket was fired from sinai and for the first time ever israel's defense missile system the iron dome fired a rocket over the southern to a city of a not so you do have this is a warning concern particularly by the israelis now the palestinian president mahmoud abbas as he comes to these talks is definitely not talking with the united

palestinian voice as is neither the israeli prime minister points here or teen television or hamas which rules gaza has rejected negotiations between the palestinian administrator and israel they slam the talks is futile and urged palestinians to unite in confronting the peace talks. this negotiation won't succeed like the others negotiations we've tried the negotiations for more than twenty years before what we've got there's only lose in our learns losing our people will continue for the killing by the israelis for our people when what there is it is not going to continue in the settlement the settlement and doing whatever they want and. tell them and all the palestinians it is there is no faction is agreed to go to the negotiation even some parties who belongs to the p.l.o. they refused to go into the negotiations mr mahmoud abbas doesn't represent the put assume people he only represent themselves he doesn't have the right to negotiate

the name of the palestinian people. and i want top of revelations of intelligence services tracking your phone calls and watching your online activities it appears even the rubbish is watching you recycling bin make it is apparently using them to track passing mobile phones in the city of london. has the story. just a ben think again these nifty looking lesser bins are connected so why five and that means that they can track the movements of each and every person walking down this street as long as they've got a smartphone that's connected so why fight now the digital stalking is all in the name of advertising simply by knowing who you are and where you're going they can alter the images on the screen here to tailor the investments to whoever is walking down the street in the city of london corporation have said that they also use the sun by despite technology that they've asked the company responsible for the bends

to switch them off so let's all star see here say that schemes like this are quite a backing of an informed public but just how aware are the british public and the erosion of this so called digital privacy in the wake of the end of face gandalf it's been revealed that it will come are still companies that entire problem. that is spying on their citizens and just last week we found out that just telecom on the verge of have been secretly passing on details of their customer's conversations every ten teligent say agency g c h q coming into our privacy did accord my conversations without my knowledge it would be a cause of concern is a breach of lorries a breach of confidentiality i just would have nothing to hide so i don't really care but still i don't think that. that's fair from them not telling us that they would present information to the government towards you in your concerns citizens' private information should stay private i've got nothing to hide so it doesn't matter let's have identity to go along all that stuff very much to the other side

is there anything in the final things i shouldn't do and so on to be honest with mass surveillance is now a reality of our everyday lives c.c.h. to call it a day so hoovering according to experts they screw up as much information as possible online and through telephone traffic in order to school through it so there's that there'd be paying him much more information than many of us use it even for that funny boy i see. meanwhile the role of america's intelligence boss on the panel reviewing government surveillance programs is causing controversy james clapper was expected to lead the inquiry which was promised to be independent but it now looks like it'll only have a limited role and all the scrutiny of spying methods is costing big tech companies big money. explains. it's very difficult to put a price on trust but in business customer trust consumer confidence is money

according to the information technology and innovation foundation the n.s.a. leaks will cost us tech companies up to thirty five billion dollars in the next three years according to the cloud security alliance after the leaks ten percent of two hundred seven non us companies canceled contracts with the u.s. providers also fifty six percent of non-u.s. respondents are now hesitant to work with u.s. based cloud operators this is bad news for us tech companies because cloud computing and storage is a huge expanding market a market based on trust but do companies have a choice other than to share their users private information most recently the highly encrypted email service called level bit has gone off line among its users was edward snowden lavabit claims the company is legally barred from explaining why it shut down but its owner wrote this i've been forced to make

a difficult decision to become complicit in crimes against the american people or walk away from nearly ten years of hard work by shutting down lavabit after significant source searching i've decided to suspend operations i wish that i could legally share with you the events that led to my decision i cannot all other u.s. internet services that cooperate with the n.s.a. are also legally required to keep their mouth shut but tech companies are of course not the only ones grappling with a costly trust issue the white house is doing its own damage control the president has announced that a group of quote unquote independent outside experts will review the government surveillance and intelligence gathering programs the privacy advocates do not expect that this so-called outside review could actually result in changes in the programs but one change that we can expect the. is more measures to stop the future and send one of them could be this the director of the n.s.a.

said the agency is going to cut the number of its system administrators by ninety percent less people knowing about the details of the programs less chances to have sex and those who do know something are strictly required to keep their mouth shut like the founder of that e-mail service level bit in washington i'm going to check out and as the n.s.a. spy scandal rumble zome artes of humanity nost former presidential hopeful howard dean for his view on america's all seeing eye. the president needed and began to do this but hasn't finished the job really needs to explain this to american people he needs to explain why this program is necessary and what it was and he was he was i think not served well by a guy who went before congress in the law about what this program does i actually think most people in this country would be ok with spying on the ordinary people if it protected us from tour or from a tourist from

a terrorism but the problem is this country was designed to be governed by ordinary people and you cannot keep things from people and mislead them about what's happening and as the escalate the scandal of the government surveillance goes on legal advice from. warning. they should never expect their communications to be kept secret you can head to our home right now for more on that and while you are online check out this is well in america a teenager was refused a lifesaving heart transplant because doctors decided he's pushed for grades and issues with the law proved he was unlikely to attend appointments he's treated. and another click away on. these websites. story the channel where you'll find a massive sinkhole which knows no swallowing a whole hands here reading it very. footage is available on iraq.
