you. didn't. israel's prime minister launch every tory goldblum bomb and against iran as he begins his mission in the you are still swore to any possible so into ron's relations with. britain's prime minister of the country made pull out of the european convention of human rights saying rulings that bind the deportation of radical islamic and allowed jailed killers to vote come to be tolerated. and convicted accidents involving race say they were tortured in confinement as part of the government's bid to break the opposition's triangle.
11:01 am
is from russia and iran the world this is all she was me yeah thanks for joining us . bannister is in the us as his says to tell the truth in the face of the sweet talk and onslaught of smile was which is how he described the iranian leader's recent speech at the u.n. benyamin netanyahu is concerned about the consequences of a historic phone call between house on reality and barack obama middle east correspondent for us he explains why. this is really 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 to give comments regarding the recent phone call between
11:02 am
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 way in 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
11:03 am
should not be full. understanding the israeli internal security vission bit announced that it had a wasted a built in citizen with iranian our 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 a position that he's going to be putting across in the united states it also kinds 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 these radios were ever agree to this israel has never admitted having nuclear weapons but at the same time it has never denied that it does policy r.t.
11:04 am
tel aviv. let's get more perspective on this and william and dull geopolitical analyst and author of myths lies and oil wars your has been our lives our mr and our welcome to r.t. good to see him do you think there really has been a thaw between iran and the u.s. all is a just a way to ease public fears like neither army or president obama really really ready to back down in public at least. i think there's been a back channel between iran and washington the obama administration for many many months now to try to prepare the stage for this and after the election of rouhani the way he was clear was on the job and his kind of populist rhetoric out of the way for a genuine dialogue between washington and tehran as i see this visit. all appearances point to that yeah and president rouhani of course has signaled that his like series you a few lines between the two are send iran isn't it too early for steps like fount
11:05 am
what do you think well i think that's not all too early for stuff like that i think the point is to get the sanctions removed as rapidly as possible from iran i was in tehran february of this year and the the sanctions are hurting the common iranians and this is this is a. hawkish lobby in the congress that push this through earlier this year and later last year and i think that that has to be taken down as a first step toward the bargain in good faith on the on the nuclear issue and there's been a lot of speculation about obama's strained relations with netanyahu now it is said bond enough to prevent the u.s. from remaining israel's international cheerleader. i think there's no question the obama administration especially the second term has dramatically distance itself from from this very very tight relationship that's been in place for decades since
11:06 am
since the time of president carter. with israel and washington these strong israeli lobby apac and other. think tanks and lobby groups in and around washington and for that reason netanyahu made an unprecedented backing of mitt romney including financial backing through sheldon adelson his good friend in the vegas casino owner to back the opposition to obama because he felt obama was distancing from this this kind of tail wag the dog relation between tele beaven in washington and that's that's a major major step. can actually also expects one israeli journalists who told us the majority of was rabies see iran as a genuine threat do they have grounds to feel that way i don't think so ron hasn't made a. hostile the war aggressive war on any nation for more than
11:07 am
a century and a half and i certainly don't think they're insane enough to try to launch a war on israel which is armed to the teeth with nuclear submarines and other weaponry that would. really not not to the advantage of it around at all so i think this is a fabrication by a certain international war lobby in washington perhaps in britain france and certainly around the israeli defense industry and certain circles in israeli intelligence around netanyahu that that want to have iran as a bogeyman to justify the continued support of washington to israel. waiting and political analyst thank you very much indeed for your position thank you you thank. step back in time on our website dot com to see how a year ago netanyahu angered iran with his explosive address to the united trailers . and also coming out and i jure in school is turned into
11:08 am
a bloodbath by some of africa's most radical islam is coming out will report on the terrorists the waving the contraband and discuss how these networks are globally interlinked. right to see. her story. and i think the true. on our reporters would. be in the. already at olds over trade budget. now europe and britain disagree on how free people are to live their lives the u.k.'s prime minister has hinted the country may pull out of the european convention on human rights saying interest tricks
11:09 am
government actions too much can get more with polly boycott in london hi there probably. no small threat based so why is coming cameron saying this. well david cameron has said clearly that he wants to know that he can keep the country safe and that means being able to chuck out as he said anybody that doesn't have the right to be in the u.k. and who threatens the u.k. way of life now we don't have to look very far for examples of where the european convention for human rights has been a real form in the side of the british government there's the very famous case of the radical hate preacher abu qatada now he famously avoided extradition from the u.k. for over a decade because his lawyers argued that it was against his human rights to return to his native shores and he could face torture there so the british government quite literally had its hands tied because of what brussels was dictating to them
11:10 am
and david cameron he's under pressure to change that status quo because the british public is growing increasingly weary of what is seen as brussels dictating the way that the u.k. justice system should work and it's not just abu khattala that there's all the criminals who are trying to use the european convention for human rights to basically get gray to leave me and see towards their punishment so we covered a story in our team not too long ago where we looked at sex offenders that were trying to come off the sex offenders register here in the u.k. because they were arguing that it was against their human rights to stay on that indefinitely now that was something that i really wanted this didn't want to do they didn't want to take those offenders off the sex offenders register but they had to do it because of brussels so there's a strong indication that if david cameron is really is reelected and if you get a conservative majority there's going to be some tough talking with brussels over the issue riots and this isn't the only subject. u.k.
11:11 am
time. you know well david cameron said explicitly that he his goal is to renegotiate britain's relationship with europe radically and that he's convinced that a treaty negotiate he's convinced that a treaty really goshi ation has to take place this idea of the e.u. being an ever closer union well that doesn't correspond to what britain wants first of all speaker polls have shown increasingly that it's not what voters want and in fact the emergence of the u.k. independence party which supports and then immediately close to exit from the european union well that shows just how strong. sentiment in the u.k. is and really david cameron again he's under pressure to stop losing conservative supporters going over to you kate says he's got to try and balance what the what the new laws you both within his party and that essentially in the public what they
11:12 am
want and we're seeing the prime minister there for his rhetoric against the european union he's talking about that in out referendum that he's promised to hold in twenty seventeen if he's reelected so he's trying to balance all of this together but it might not be as easy as simply renegotiating the deal with brussels as he's been saying because westminster because brussels has said time and time again that westminster conscious cherry pick the policies that it wants and go to the side the ones that it doesn't want to move they would leave the e.u. membership it's what an hour can't menu but again we've got this indication from david cameron that if he is reelected as prime minister he's going to try very hard to make it one. live from london paula thank you very much indeed for that update thank you. leaving the human brains convention is not a new one and has been championed by the united kingdom independence party in
11:13 am
recent years that's. now get more perspective from john laughlin director of studies at the institute of democracy and corporation in paris mr lott and welcome to r.c. britain's was draw would be a major blow for the court do you believe it will happen. that's difficult to predict can i please correct a number of things that your correspondent from london said which were incorrect firstly the statement made today comes not from david cameron but from tourism may the home secretary the minister of the interior secondly the british conservative party has not threatened to leave the human rights convention it has threatened instead to withdraw the human rights act the human error those are two different things the human rights act brings the european convention we're into british law and means that we're tisch courts can rule on it. so that britain could
11:14 am
theoretically cancel the british repeal of the human rights act but remain a party to the european convention and for germany britain most serious mistake which will correspondent made to get us up if we go to the steps of the european convention on human rights that ministered by the council of europe not by the european union so we'll carry on the regions of the keys of previously both those i'm sure unintentionally it's got nothing to do with brussels the council of europe is based in strasbourg a different organization from the european union. and you know we have to apologize for the sound quality but how do genuine is cameron's threat here if that's just part of punching to a euro skeptics in an effort to hold the rise of the nationalist u.k. party i think yes it is a largely driven by that but it's also driven by the same thing which has driven the rise of ukip that is to say. increasing dissatisfaction not only with the
11:15 am
interference in british internal affairs of judges in strasbourg and the council of europe's european court of human rights but also frankly with the way that british judges have been interpreted the human rights act on a number of famous cases such as the one i think your correspondent mentioned so yes i. think it is a genuine really genuine threat so i don't think it's mere electioneering cameron probably have to stick to the law before the last election but was unable to implement it because of his coalition with the liberals. whether he will gain an absolute majority at the next album and remains to be seen but there is no reason why the human rights actions not be repealed there actually russia has been at odds with the european court of human rights and number of times of the sovereignty she's with britain often leaving the calls defense was the consistency here. well in that sense there is none i mean it's true that britain does exploit the
11:16 am
issue of human rights terribly in its relationships with russia there was an occasion a few months ago where a recommendation was made to limit the abuses committed by journalists and william hague the foreign secretary said that these measures should not be introduced in britain because then britain would not be able to castigate russia over its own allegedly of freedom in the media so there's no consistency and it shows how human rights have become a hypocritical mechanism for attacking russia and a hypocritical instrument in foreign policy. unlawful and director status have been sued up of democracy and corporation of paris mr laughlin sank you very much indeed . voters folks should be a right away and all stress parliamentary election but the centrist coalition
11:17 am
gathering just enough support has enough support to squeeze back into power by the narrowest of margins that's coming up to this later this hour. this point be an expensive car saloon. like new clueless a new fashion show. also designer bags and shoes in the best shop windows. luxury is the school. is a to last kong. month concert. on our cheap.
11:18 am
morning news today violence is once again flared up. these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. giant corporations rule the day. welcome back to this is the central coalition looks to have scribed back into power in sunday's parliamentary election all stress but a ride away in part his heart a field day scooping up a quarter of the overall vote and a speech to all of the reports from yanna is part of a strong movement towards the right that is sweeping your. well it looks likely that the coalition of the social democrats and the people's party will continue to
11:19 am
rule here in austria however the most interesting thing to come out of sunday's vote was the rise in popularity of the far right freedom party they come paying by 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 votes are right now but it's just worn the old right wing parties across europe that have been gaining popularity 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
11:20 am
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 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 for income from the economic center and believes people sick of their heart and you are is being wasted outside the country. well they don't trust the politicians in brussels any more 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
11:21 am
a supra national level it's austrian tax euro's that go to other countries and are just washed down the drain i think it just said 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 in terms of investigations investigators searched the greenpeace ship rolled in a russian oil rig processed earlier this month that authorities say endangered walkers and equipment that story coming up shortly. a blond boss at a corner tonight cheerios saw up to fifty people executed cheering that night with a gunman walking don't retreat into witchery as panicked students or ran for their

11:23 am
with this time boko haram has again lived up to its name in the literal translation is western education is a sin but the militants haven't shied away from killing islamic scholars and transco now for their liking either thousands have died in the groups attacks since two thousand and nine when it launched an insurgency across northeastern nigeria. share activists sentence by a bahraini court on sunday have accused the government of be saying waterboarding and electrocuting them but the authorities say they're all part of an illegal opposition group linked to terrorists twenty of the fifty people put behind bars were tried in absentia here while those for hasn't plan to appeal and side use of. head of mon training at the bahrain center for human rights told r.t. what the group discovered about police tactics there. we as a human rights group we are reporting on a daily basis that. security and massive media and from security forces they are in
11:24 am
a bigger house on a daily basis broking than those people inside the home sometimes receiving money and also what's happening on the ground protest. and with riot police kidnapping to put this stuff beating even talk getting thin. you know. center and behind and seven times the outdoor kitchen and then in this building for a false confession all those people who want to be kidnapped by a great police or by a messy video they are subjected to inforce disappeared not allowed to do it they have not enough to talk into their family or access to their lawyer for many days some time from the few i want us to tell you one week nobody knows about them. re poor reform movement has been alive in bahrain for more than two years now let's have a look at how it's been fairing over that time almost
11:25 am
a hundred people have been killed in violence and three thousand arrested the first major on to government protests started back in february twenty levon on the wave of the arab spring uprisings there also is chose to break it out with force apparently the unrest was so bad bahraini rulers had to call saudi arabia and the united arab emirates to ask for military help and a full these sunni led government ordered a demolition of the shia mosques only fueling the sheer majority of their new protests led to the authorities banning all demonstrations in october two thousand and twelve also six people were arrested for insulting the king on twitter the opposition was also 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 of its have been put behind bars in the country including. seen as the main protest figure in the country a three year sentence there. and of course you could find this story and much more
11:26 am
on our website putting a lid on it like almost thirty years after the nuclear catastrophe at chernobyl the site is finally getting a new protective cover to storm the spread of radiation and bury the bad memories of the past on r.c. dot com see the. fog is being put in place. and the health service corps fiction has forty thousand take to the streets of manchester in anger to propose public service cuts they say privatizing part of the and a chasse will rip the heart of out of it all of this and more at all. investigators have searched that ship greenpeace during a prosperous protest in the arctic sea earlier this month logs and equipment were confiscated from the vessel thirty acts of us were arrested after they trying to board a russian or platform. has more. the investigation is still continuing we
11:27 am
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 oil 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 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
11:28 am
and where to stand that the greenpeace organization themselves they are still be 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 threat 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 endangering the lives of the personnel of the oil rig of course we'll see how that unfolds in the next seventy out of seventy two hours this will be more or less clear meanwhile thirty greenpeace activists from maine in detention in the mormon screen and those are those include the citizens of brazil the netherlands sweden the united kingdom and ukraine so it's an interesting story but of course we're keeping track of what's happening in the northern russia and we'll update our viewers with the latest details as we get it up next here on out is our special report.
11:29 am
recently the ministry of internal affairs of russia declared that they're going to drastically increase operations in and around the moscow subway system with a major emphasis on illegal immigration there's 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 are 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 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 i.e. 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.
