we are. putting. their. mother. a little. touch right to see. her street. and i think the church. reformers were very. instrumental. in the little.

thing to rebels besiege an engine to a christian village in syria on the with panicked residents on able to flee and desperately calling on the army for help. day to day at the g twenty follows hours of intense assyria debate with a deep divide americans will plan without a u.n. commission. and national in security agencies britain and the us have been waging an undercover war in the internet encryption and. as fresh leaks a show they can hack into even the most protected system.

it's time i am here in moscow we're glad you are able to join us here on our team you with me tom with a. al-qaeda linked to rebels have attacked a christian a village in syria home to one of the world's oldest one astri's the army has secured much of the township but to residents say radical opposition fighters have seized nearby hills and are firing indiscriminately at the community our correspondent in damascus summary of financial reports. i tried to go to my little village shortly after we heard that the clashes erupted there and it's just one hour drive from damascus north of the capital but we were stopped by the army and warned that it could be a one way ticket because first of all the road from damascus to milo is not safe but even if we're lucky enough to get. to the village the clashes still continue there and the raw are still some snipers who are active on the ground so the situation is very dangerous so it's better not to go there as we were told we're

hearing that the fighting is between the army and the militants mostly from. al qaeda affiliated groups fighting here in syria. against the regime of bashar assad but mostly for their own radical islamic state and it's known it's believed to be the vast and the most successful and at the same time the most aggressive opposition force here in syria and it's listed as a terrorist organization by the you when u.s. and some other members of the international community and we can see that the tactics were also. very similar to those that terrorists all around the world use we know that. early on wednesday a suicide bomber struck a checkpoint at the entrance of my little village and after a car exploded at the checkpoint the militants of just stormed and we have online

and i hope you can see it right now showing the rebels. the city and residents have been telling media that the same day the militants managed to take over a mountain top sophia hotel and they've been firing from that poor into what we know is that village is a very special play. not only speaking. in terms of syrian reality but internationally speakin it is home to an orthodox trying for century catholic church and dozens of more sex so it's a religious heritage is very soul that it was protected by the government and it was what we saw during this crisis respected by the rebels but after this recent attack of course the whole christian community not only here in syria but all over the world was shaken and let's not listen to one another on. the

managed to speak from latoya care what she says about the situation and about the fears of the fresh and minority here in syria i mean and how can the international community ignore the brutal killing spree in the. the fifth and the target affected five hundred people including children women and all the people in the villages trevor they massacred all the residents and burned down the houses in another village almost all of the thirty seven locals were killed only ten people were able to escape twelve alawite villages were subjected to this horrendous attack it was a true slaughter house people were mutilated and beheaded there is even a video that shows a girl being dismembered alive with the so. well it's worth to mention that malula has very troubled neighbors another village of brood center of smuggling

here in syria just twenty minutes drive from my little homes the city known as the percent of the question is one hundred kilometers away from lula but we are hearing from some free syrian army members that from some opposition members that the idea of attacking this village was to clear the road from the city of homs in central city road to damascus because this religion was the only one not taken north. by the rebels but these are just rumors it's very hard to confirm. another day of intensive brainstorming ahead at the g twenty summit in st petersburg it's also a fresh chance to seek some common ground after a day one saw the syrian crisis split leaders of the world's top economies into two rival camps.

around half of the g twenty members a said no to america's intention to strike syria without the us go ahead washington accuses damascus of using chemical weapons in the more than two year long war but its arguments fail to convince all artes alessio he is in st petersburg for us. it's unprecedented that leaders of the united states and russia have no official meeting during a g. twenty summit it's unprecedented that the leader of the host nation of the summit calls on all the member states to include a political and diplomatic into its economic agenda so yes syria has definitely been a game changer here at the g. twenty summit in st petersburg even the d.n.a. which was held last night which all the members of all the presidents of the g. twenty member states attended which is usually about having fun relaxing having a chill talk and and enjoying the delicacies was seemingly looking more like a heated debate with heated political and diplomatic debate on the future of syria

obviously we have no official statement from that dinner it was behind closed doors with no cameras inside but we had some information from the spokesperson of the russian president it was called was said that indeed syria was talking the agenda of the guardian and the countries of the g. twenty member states have been split in their opinions on the future of syria in almost fifty to fifty ratio we can basically based on the statements coming from. some officials on these countries we can see who is for and who is against the strike now russia's and china's positions have been the same and they have stayed in change they are opposing any kind of military action against syria just as some extent germany and italy who did not openly say they stand against the intervention to syria the military action against syria but they said they would not participate in this kind of war now also brazil mexico who are known to have somewhat of

a star with ties with the united states recently over the revelations by edward snowden it is expected that they would also not support any kind of action against syria i mean also we had statements from the un secretary-general ban ki moon who said that the geneva convention must be held as soon as possible and he said that the only way to. resolve the syrian crisis is by peaceful diplomatic means the same position was voiced by the polled as well as the head of the european commission mr burroughs who also said that the peaceful solution is the only solution and solution it's very interesting here in that respect because but also a statement signal somewhat obviously isn't within the european union as well because seven of the european member states european union member states have been supporting the strike against syria those that denmark romania creation turkey a lot of your poland so obviously will see what they have to say on syria as the result of this summit china says

a strike against syria will not only violate the country's but also be a disaster for the global economy the director of the center for arms control at china's institute of international studies outlined a beijing stance to r.t. china worst criticizing in the in the past of two and a half years since the very beginning of the syrian crisis by their western countries i don't think. in words very happy the position or the you know the attitude taken by the chinese government in u.n. security council you know we several resolutions are proposed by the u.s. side and so i think this is our. principle you know our foreign affairs our foreign policy diplomacy so we have a two week for the final result of the international inspection team the use of chemical weapons in syria.

i. the u.s. not only failed to get anywhere near unanimous not for its war plan for syria at the g twenty it's also struggling to convince its own lawmakers and to the public that the strike is necessary and even usually staunch allies like britain parliament coldwater prime minister cameron is drive to help the americans nowadays you've got a piece going over looks at whether there's actually enough proof to back the bombing the intelligence services of the us france and britain have all presented reports suggesting it was the syrian authorities who used chemical weapons on august twenty first so let's look at their arguments opensource reports are presented among the key evidence by all three services instead of being tucked safely in their beds at home we store rows of troops lying side by

side sprawled on a hospital floor open sources are actually videos on you tube and social networks this brings us to the second arguments presented once again unilaterally its knowledge of previous chemical attacks allegedly conducted by the assad regime un experts however still haven't been able to agree on whether or not chemical weapons were deployed during the conflict in syria and why which side now argument number three washington paris and london claim intensified fire in the area of the alleged attack is another sign the authorities were behind it this way they allegedly tried destroying the evidence now finally the fourth key argument presented by all three is that the rebels are simply incapable of using chemical weapons there is no credible intelligence or other evidence to substantiate the claims all the position of chemical weapons political position. earlier the u.n. said it had evidence suggesting otherwise so it's pretty clear the arguments are

completely the same but interestingly the reaction is the cause of these countries are not the governments amendment does not mention compelling evidence against president assad i will seek authorization for the use of force from the american people's representatives in congress i'm waiting for an answer from cannot act on its own so as washington waits for congress paris for washington and london has dropped out altogether u.s. senators are certain make a decision on the issue next week meanwhile russia has presented findings from its experts who look to interview another chemical attack which killed twenty six people near aleppo in march their report has just said rebel groups were behind the attack now here is why the shellac carrying the substance was apparently similar to homemade devices previously made by rebel groups in addition of the shells detonator was not what's normally used for standard chemical munitions the findings

also indicate soil and shell samples contain the nerve agent a serin which was not of an industrial stand it now u.k. counterterrorism intelligence officer charles issue bridges says it shatters the argument that the us a government slowly has such weapons. the u.k. based opposition supporting body the syrian observatory for human rights commented that most of those killed in the attack it reported at the time where indeed syrian army soldiers which again would suggest either a that it was a syrian army accident or bay that the russian findings now tend to show or suggest is the case that in fact this was an attack carried out by syria's rebels but it doesn't suit the agenda and the narrative put out by britain and the u.s. and france in its intelligence assessments the only really evidence in inverted commas that is being put forward to support this strike possibly on syria is that syria's rebels cannot and do not have the capability to produce chemical weapons

and therefore could not have been responsible for the attack did russian report the detail it's contained in that point towards syria rebel use rather than syrian military use possibly. by some estimates a punitive bombing attack against syria will set the us back twenty billion dollars but arab want to see a way out they are offering to pick up the tab for washington and finance the entire operation otherwise for them it means relying on radicals in syria to do what the americans want marina bought by has more on the gulf off. u.s. secretary of state john kerry told lawmakers that if washington carries out a military attack against damascus on its own some arab countries have proposed to foot the bill for the entire operation america's top diplomat says the all for is currently on the table so in theory of a u.s. missile strike and being funded by arab countries an offer that kerry secretary kerry says is on the table this essentially means that the u.s.

military will be working as a contractor or a mercenary force or lock border if you will towards our of partners mr kerry told us representatives that being militarily bankrolled by arab countries is not in the cards and it's not an option the obama administration is currently considering but some ask why would the secretary of state speak publicly about the proposal if it wasn't being considered a valuable offer and also on wednesday the secretary of state also warned us representatives that a lack of military action against the government of bashar al assad could fuel extremist fighters secretary kerry said that if the u.s. doesn't strike syria then countries that countries funding the opposition such as saudi arabia and qatar which are america's allies will begin giving more money to extremist fighters so go and buy this rationale this means that the u.s.

must strike syria to prevent its own allies from strengthening radical rebels clearly what we see is that many countries have their own agenda that are playing a. role in this ongoing syrian crisis. could israel's id protection plan be a step too far it's launched a biometric database to battle identity theft but the campaign is worry about the government potentially having all citizens faces and fingerprints on file reports on that date. and you across plan to put gizmos in every vehicle to forcibly still europe's drivers from speeding report and how bets going down in the u.k. it's off to the person. they are hunting down as terrorists they hide in the woods and prepared to become suicide bombers only their mothers still believe these young men can be saved.

know you've got. some of those won't sleep at night they'll follow their sons into the woods find them and return them to a peaceful life where they killed almost everybody. had been able to take him away from maybe that was by chance. how does it feel to be a terrorist mother. comes on did you have even the slightest chance to come home. my son takes terrorist on o.t. . sigrid laboratory in the caribbean was able to build the its most sophisticated robot which on fortunately doesn't give a darn about anything tim's mission to teach a reason why it should care about humans in green this is why you should care watch

only on the r g dot com. you're watching r t from all international news an army of supercomputers covered work with the internet companies and technical trickery this is a force that's allowed america's n.s.a. enbridge is a g.c. h.q. to cry came to any encrypted system they wanted to get access to the sensitive personal data of millions of uses now it's emerged from the latest ad will snowden legal which says online banking and even medical records have apparently been breached create kids who established an income to secure the service says it's alarming who can potentially get their hands on such information it's not only industrial espionage think about the value of you know how many people have access to this huge treasure trove of data there are one point four million people in the u.s. you have top secret clearances are all those people enjoy i don't think so so you

have the issue of who has access to this data and mr snowden was able to get quite a bit of it so you know he's obviously he's not alone there are at least thousand to probably tens of thousands of other people who do it what's valuable for for political blackmail it's hugely valuable if you had all these private conversations from a political opponent think what you could do it when every election this is basically something that's completely worldwide and you know you should assume that it's anywhere if you're anywhere in the world and you're using something electronic that someone is looking. getting a mug shot on your fingerprints taken usually means you've been up to no good in israel though it's being used to combat the fort but not everyone's happy that the government's planning to hold biometric in for on every citizen is a middle east correspondent. for sixty days you of malls every move was watched by the names of fifty cameras and the eyes of complex fans of israel's version of big

brother contestants of the hit show often complain it feels like the lives are owned by the viewers but for your of that really happened after beating the house when his identity was stolen. a couple of weeks ago i received a phone call from the police at first i thought i was being pranked but then i realised it was very real they were arrested somebody who'd been stealing i.d.'s he'd also stolen mine and opened many bank accounts with it a week later i received a letter from a mobile company asking me to pay thousands of shekels. and it's exactly because of like this that television says it wants to pull out all the stops to protect its citizens but many complain it's now going step too far the technology is nothing new you put your finger here and then you look into this camera and it all gets recorded but what has people up in arms is the fact that all this information is going to be recorded in one governmental database that may not be one hundred percent secure the cost in privacy terms and in financial terms of giving your

finger and your face to the government is too heavy it creates a risk a risk that the database will leak or be used against you by corrupt individuals or corrupt civil servants the to your pilot is asking citizens to voluntarily scan their faces and fingerprints once the information is collected it will be accessible without a court order to the police army and security forces when there is a court order the entire datta base could then be transferred to other agencies including foreign bodies. nineteen eighty-four is ancient history compared to this there is another side five book called my name is legion in the book all of the people were categorized by the government we are getting closer to that future if not in this generation than in the next one baby's d.n.a. could be taken upon birth. if successful the national biometric database will become compulsory. every person who uses facebook or

social networks gives away biometric information we're tired in those photos we give away our locations we give our biometric information to private companies and no one thinks it's a big deal for some reason there's a bad reaction when it's the state but the state will use the information to protect us so we need to take this into consideration. but even you have who thought nothing about having dozens of cameras follow his every move in the big. the house is against it market because i don't know who will see this information how it will be used the government will know everything about me. something many argue is already the reality you don't need to be in the big brother house to live in a big brother world policy r t c on israel or appears at the world's largest retailer lashing out a us supermarket giant or wal-mart is the plan the biggest private employer but

stops they they need a decent minimum wage somewhere arrested at rallies with the story at our dot com. and russia will host a wonderful olympics in the words of the i.o.c. president who's given the sorts of preparations his wholehearted seal of approval on a website how excitement over the winter games is heating up. if you're a driver in the u.k. you should make the most of your time and learn in your car before the european commission sits in there with you and wants to install an automatic foot on the brake in every vehicle when motorists a breach of the speed limit is out is part of boycott on brussels backseat driving plan. got a need for speed the fancy yourself is a bit of a petrol head perhaps well lawmakers in brussels are thinking of ways to slow you down the european union wants to improve its road safety record and they're coming

up with innovative new ways to do it the latest proposal fitting all cars with a technology that would read a road speed limits and automatically slam on the brakes if you go over it so in the u.k. that would mean a limit of seventy miles per hour and matter how big your engine is so we decided to find out what some of the members of london's for ari owners club think about the idea of the fun out of drawing wouldn't one car isn't that you've got this one at the moment but various other classics and it would just take the fun of the whole scenario thing it's something disappointing for everyone if somebody saw for you but it's like going to vince on congo so many different cars so if some of them are applying. the new technology i'll be ok but on the special in the sense of control cause you know for sure i think you some people sleep because if they if they realize that they're being controlled by speed their forget to drive they'll forget to be aware so poor drivers will just simply cause more actions even though they're going this quickly so if people are so worried about people not being able

to make the right judgment call then we need better education not draconian rules where one size fits all they're exempt to that law. and you can't do that no not supposed to have an outspoken car. the proposal hasn't gone down well with the case transport secretary either he says that forcing cars to break or semantically has got big brother written all over it and that britain already ranks amongst the top in europe for its road safety record. what's more what's amazing the experts say that sometimes the driver needs to be able to speed up we want to avoid collisions and tricky situations. for anybody. marty. let's take a look at some more international headlines a pitched battles are broken out in the chilean capital after tens of thousands of students marched to demand universal education axes at least three protesters we

wounded and more than fifty to arrested as police used water cannon to disperse the crowds in santiago students have been holding large rallies for two years calling for chile's expensive education system to be made free. egypt's interior minister has survived an assassination attempt after a blast in cairo ripped through his convoy mohamed abraham escaped unhurt but twenty two people were taken to hospital including ten policemen and a young boy the muslim brotherhood quickly condemned the attack no one he admitted carrying out the bombing. next of the russian mothers who discover this sons have become terrorists and what they do about it stay with r.t. .

iraq afghanistan the balkans somalia haiti libya yemen and so on and so on the list of engagements and airstrikes by post cold war nato just keeps getting longer and now it looks like it's serious turn a lot of people have written me asking me to predict what is going to happen next which for me is impossible i am not good at predicting the future but i can say is that we are living in a very tense moment in history many argue that the us economy with its unfathomable debt is really propped up by war and the petro dollar so if the us backs down here what could be the beginning of the end for the world's only hyper power but if they do attack syria there will probably be some sort of reaction from iran russia and china if you haven't noticed nato has been trying to encircled these nations and had russian internet conspiracy land a lot of people are saying that russia is next you see if there is no resistance in syria then one by one all resistance to the un ending hunger of nato will be smashed out one by one the reason syria is so important and so scary is that you

have one massive military force that could be very motivated to attack for its own self interest while you have a group of massive military forces how they voted to counterattack for their own self interests this is a very tense standoff that could lead to a major moment in history military history but that's just my opinion.
