international news and commons live from moscow this is with me thanks for joining us the israeli prime minister is in the u.s. and he says to tell the truth in the face all the sweet talk and also a lot of smiles which is how he described the iranian leaders recent speech of the yuan then you may netanyahu is concerned about the consequences well historic phone call between house on reality and barack obama on his middle east correspondent explains why. the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu is in the united states where he will be meeting with the american president barack obama and also addressing the united nations general assembly the focus of that address and his meetings will be on iran and here the israeli prime minister's message is quite simple don't trust the rain ians netanyahu has ordered his government members not
9:02 am
to give comments regarding the recent phone call between the radian and american presidents in fact he's ordered them not to talk at all regarding the whole issue of iran and this is presumably to avoid any kind of embarrassment while natanya who is in the united states and also for israel to seemingly present a united front prior to leaving israel for new york netanyahu said that he was going to use this opportunity at the united nations to show the truth about to rant particularly now while all these plays and trees are being said last week when the iranian president rouhani addressed the united nations general assembly netanyahu criticized that address severely saying that was full of hypocrisy and cynicism at the time he ordered the israeli delegation to boycott the station and warned the international community not to be fooled by signs of so-called moderation by the reigning government we will not be fooled by half measures that merely provide

a smokescreen for your rants continual pursuit of nuclear weapons. and the world should not be full arguer. on sunday the israeli internal security vission bit announced that it had of wasted a belgian citizen with a rainy an r region for allegedly spying against israel now the incident happened already three weeks ago but the information has only now been released while netanyahu is in the united states and of course questions are being asked about its timing many are suggesting that it is to store up ammunition for netanyahu his position at a position that he's going to be putting across in the united states it also comes at a time when the first time in decades we see a warming in the relationship between the united states and iran now rouhani in his address last week also called for a nuclear free middle east it's highly unlikely that the israelis will ever agree to this israel has never admitted having nuclear weapons but at the same time it

has never denied that it does policy our team tel aviv. and her discussed prime minister netanyahu his trip with tehran based professor said one hundred morandi and he said that these rating leader will have no difficulty defending his conduct of stance but the u.s. should be very cautious about its next move towards iran. netanyahu his obsession with iran is. quite deep and his when president rouhani was initially elected he called the iranian president wolf in sheep's clothes so that sort of language is what is to be expected from israeli prime minister i don't think it's going to be very difficult for him to persuade some people because in the united states the corporate media is very much in the hands of the political establishment in congress and the senate is very close to. the regime but i think if american political leaders take
9:05 am
note of what happened during the syria issue and how opposed the american people are now to confrontation in military attacks. then they will choose a more reasonable approach when it comes to iran because after all they couldn't convince their own people about syria iran is a much much stronger country and on the other hand the americans have isolated themselves internationally over syria. and you can stand back in time on our website as he dot com to see how a year ago i need to get iran with his explosive address to the u.n. chain assembly. and i had sharon scoreless turned into a bloodbath by some of africa's most radical islamic coming out were foretold the terrorists within the continent and discuss how these networks interlinks globally . already had

9:07 am
our supreme court with a british citizen has a problem with the british government and the british state we have our own courts where i can seek redress if we shouldn't have to take it off to a foreign court presided over by shoreham judges many of whom oxen simply not up to the standard of english judge instructions will either observe civilised values or they were many countries and i'm not quite up to that standard yet and all this is done for us as actually we've had all these kind of sit ins that we're obliged to. the central coalition loops to house crowd back into power in sunday's parliamentary election last year but over right wing party has had a field day scooping up a quarter of the overall vote and us these are all of the reports from yet it's part of a strong movement towards the right that is sweeping you are. well it looks likely that the coalition of the social democrats and the people's party will continue to rule here in austria however the most interesting thing to come out of sunday's
9:08 am
vote was the rise in popularity of the far right freedom party they come paying the saying that they wanted to see an end to bailouts of failing economies in europe using austrian taxpayers' money also they wanted to see a restructuring or even a and a but getting rid of the the single currency all of those things appealing to the the austrian voter right now but it's just worn the old right wing parties across europe that have been gaining popularity now across the european union we've seen in norway a right wing government there coming to power based on immigration promises promises to cap immigration in the country also in sweden the rise in the right wing we saw just earlier this year riots in the speed region of stockholm they were based on their own immigration mostly we've seen politicians there campaigning hard on all the anti immigration stand point also in hungary we've seen the the rise of
9:09 am
right wing parties what we are seeing is an increase in the right wing parties in countries in europe becoming the legitimate third party pushing the the established political status quo all of these though showing that across europe as the eurozone crisis doesn't seem to be going away any where traditionally the working classes who perhaps would have voted to the left or the center left and now turning towards the right. and barbara cohn from the austrian economics center believes people are sick of their hard earned heroes being wasted outside the country. well they don't trust the politicians in brussels anymore they don't trust our austrian the decision makers what they do there they don't believe they find the right solutions when after all it's just. a redistribution on a supranational level it's austrian tax euros that go to other countries and are
9:10 am
just washed down the drain i think it does set a couple of politicians thinking and overlook their past solutions that after all it has only prolong the problems this is definitely what the people see and it has not come up to any solutions as a matter of fact that that's grew bigger and bigger and higher so the next generations will suffer and this is what those twenty five percent obviously have in mind. and coming up later this hour united in hardship financially hate portuguese go in central a means to survive moving to rule areas and forming communities to help each other deal with the economic fallout. a bloodbath at a college in nigeria so up to fifty people executed during the night with gunmen walking door to door. students or run for their lives is believed to be their work of book iran in nigeria's dominant is a mystery so the group has increasingly been targeting schools and is believed to

western education is sin but the militants haven't shied away from killing islamic schools scholars and not to radical enough for their liking are that thousands have died in the group's attacks since two thousand and nine when it launched an insurgency across northeastern nigeria. because activists in bahrain sounds as donahoe of except as noted the state's coming out which has to say they were worse than a fool should in confinement and all the government want is to break the opposition struggle. and bring peace process that a russian oil rig in the arctic is a real threat to walk is on their equipment with the latest on the legal battle coming up shortly. this point be an expensive car soon.

sometimes stealing money and also what's happening on the ground on their protest. and police kidnapping the group is still beating the doors getting them in the city go to. torture center three and seven down your door killing them in this building waterfalls going fishing all those people who want to be kidnapped by a great. video they are subjected to unfold this is not allowed to do they are not enough to talking to their family or her ex's lawyer for maybe a symptom from the few i want us to tell you what do we nobody knows about. while the movement has been alive in bahrain for more than two years now let's have a look at how it's been fair. over that time almost one hundred people have been killed in violence and three thousand arrested the first major anti-government protests started back in february twentieth leben on the wave of the arab spring

uprisings before she's chose to break it out with fools apparently the rest was so behind the rulers had to call saudi arabia and the united arab emirates to ask for military help in april these sunni led government ordered a demolition of sharia mosques only fueling the anger of the issue of majority and new protests led to the authorities banning demonstrations in october twentieth twelve also six people were arrested for insulting the king on twitter the position was also outraged by the decision to allow the return of the formula one grand prix race in bahrain accusing the government of using it as a cover up for abuses more than a hundred of the most prominent has been put behind bars in the country including seen as the main protest figure in the country and he got a three year sentence that investigators have searched the ship greenpeace protest disease during a protest in the arctic sea earlier this month loans and equipment work cars was
9:17 am
confiscated from the vessel. arrested after they tried to board a russian oil platform on ski how small. the investigation is still continuing we understand that specialists from the investigative committee of the russian prosecutor general's office are now on board. are searching the ship they've already seized documents and equipment on board that ship to determine what the intentions of the greenpeace activists were on september eighteenth when they tried to board the oil rig in the barents sea they also shed some light on what exactly happened then according to the security forces at the oil rig when the boat when the arctic sunrise breached the five hundred meter perimeter around the rig the security asked them to turn back and that they were actually breaching private property the arctic sunrise ship refused to do so and then the activists tried to get on board the oil rig where the security had to use force and detain those
9:18 am
activists then as it stands they are accused of piracy they're not officially charged with piracy yet it is a very serious charge in russian dealing up to fifteen years in prison punishment and when to stand that the greenpeace organization themselves they are staunchly denying any kind of accusations saying that this was a peaceful protest they were not trying to deliver any harm to the oil rig while the investigators have every reason to believe that their actions could have led to serious threats to the lives of the employees of the oil rig and to its equipment so eventually charges may be replaced with breach of private property and they drink the lives of the personnel of the oil rig of course we'll see how that unfolds in the next seventy to seventy two hours this will be more or less clear meanwhile thirty greenpeace activists remain in detention in the mormon street and those are those include the citizens of brazil from the netherlands sweden the united kingdom and ukraine so it's an interesting story but of course we're keeping

europe struggling to combine rising fuel prices and increasingly pricey and over crowded public transport the pedal power you're a smith party. and coming out with new strong the world of sport just. recently the ministry of internal affairs of russia declared that they're going to dress to increase operations in and around the moscow subway system with a major emphasis on illegal immigration there is an odd paradox when people talk about dealing with illegal immigration in terms of what the police should do people want the police to deal with it but any means of trying to actually do anything or generally taboo any form of asking people to see ideas viewed as an invasion of privacy or racial profiling well i don't know how exactly anyone can prove they are
9:28 am
or aren't a citizen without id and if you're looking for people who are forward and thus different then how can you go about looking for illegals without looking for people who are different profiling if you were looking for a criminal of slavic origin in uganda when the police be wrong to stop me due to standing out from the crowd i don't think so that's not racial profiling it is just common sense obviously it is best to fight the causes of illegal immigration rather than asking for id in moscow subways but they have to do something so i guess id checks are here to stay but there's a big difference between looking at someone's passport and doing stop and frisk or involuntary blood and urine tests that is what immigration control goes over the line but that's just my opinion. elusive search for justice should individuals including government officials be legally held to account for starting aggressive force like in iraq is it. the bush
