thank. god and. britain's intelligence chief warns of a country is facing its grave as terror threat from al qaeda affiliates thousands of islamic extremism living in the u.k. . president obama says there will be no negotiations with his opponents until the shutdown is over the debt ceiling is raised with america's costly political imparts now and it's not today. and to the enemy of my enemy is my friend i'm likely allies it israel and saudi arabia reportedly team up to take on syria and iran. everyone welcome to you watching r.t.

and live a form of the russian capital you with me along with a to our top story now. thousands of islamic extremists living in the u.k. could attack at will that's the warning from the country's security chief sharing his fears and his first speech since taking over m i five andrew parker also admitted that the u.k. intelligence services were not perfect. listened in. specifically named al qaeda and its affiliated groups in pakistan and yemen as being the most direct and immediate threat to the u.k. and he had referred to the groups that had successfully been able to smuggle some explosives onto planes in the last four years and also raising it be a conflict in syria he echoed the same concerns as several other european governments have been expressing with regard to individuals who had gone over to syria to fight and that have been coming back to the country and he raised the point that there are some sunni extremist groups in the syria who are aspiring to attack western

a country is now having given these warnings he also defended the need for intelligence services to be employing the kind of vast surveillance that they've already had of course this is one side of the story the other side being the recent public backlash we've seen on the activities of the intelligence services let's get more insight on this whole story the new warnings from brad from the stop the war coalition thanks very much for joining us what do you make of the statements of the m i five achieved i mean why issue the warnings now if we look at the terrorism act for example that's already in place this is never really last priority with this government there are certain things that he said that have some logic and there are certain things that he said the on the face of it have no logic clearly there are people from this country to go to syria and. there's some possibility that they may cause some problem coming back here because they will aim to come back here that has a certain logic those people keep fighting in syria coming back but what about the british extremists who maybe have been involved in attacks elsewhere and they have

to bolster this idea of the war on terror as a coherent thing where the threat is coming from about their authorities nothing to do with what the british government does it comes from out there and that remains they have to present the thing that way we are justified in what we do because of the threat that already exists rather than that we are creating the threats. president obama's refusing to have budget talks with the republicans until congress and the government shutdown and raises the debt ceiling that's just over a week before the u.s. runs out of cash and its ability to borrow more money putting the nation in front of a very real risk of default or in a fortnight has the details in new york. my nine day government shutdown with the credit default looming in the wings washington's failure to so far agree on a budget or how to pay its bills has given an entirely new meaning to american exceptionalism hundreds of thousands of americans are losing paychecks and social

benefits because u.s. officials elected to lead this country are engaged in a bitter fiscal deadlock on tuesday president barack obama said he would be willing to negotiate on budget issues only after republicans agreed to reopen the federal government and raise the debt limit without preconditions republicans meanwhile are insisting on deficit reduction talks as a condition for raising the federal debt by october seventeenth members of the party have demanded also that obama's health care be delayed or defunded in return for approving funds to end the government shutdown now president obama warned the public that an economic shutdown the first in history would be dramatically worse than the current reckless government shutdown and while washington's temper tantrum remains on full display economist max wolf says the world is watching with all and growing less impressed with the economic and political experiment otherwise known as the united states i do think we will see the debt ceiling get resolved however

with each day where the dysfunction is more obvious more out of control and larger it becomes harder to have faith tomorrow it becomes harder for the markets it becomes harder for americans it becomes harder for the population of the world to have faith in brand america government america and people begin to unfortunate and unpleasant and unflattering questions about america's future now china which owns a reported one point three trillion dollars of the u.s. government debt recently reminded washington that the clock is ticking and urged us lawmakers not to repeat the mistake of two thousand and eleven that's when the debate over raising the u.s. debt ceiling led to america's credit rating being downgraded and japan's finance minister also recently. a failure by the u.s. to quickly resolve its political deadlock over government finances could damage the global economy in the meantime the u.s. government shutdown has reportedly delayed trade talks between washington and brussels it has also forced president obama to skip asia pacific economic

cooperation meeting this week ceding valuable ground china reporting from new york r.t. . anxiety over washington's inability to solve its political mess is engulfing nations around the grave with many countries risking the economies being compromised by close ties to the u.s. meanwhile both democrats and republicans are refusing to capture costing americans a hundreds of millions of dollars every day let's take a look at how political impasse weren't in places where lawmakers couldn't agree on a budget australia had shut down a once in one thousand nine hundred seventy five after all the budgetary squabbles the queen stepped in and fired everyone and they had the elections and no such problems had occurred ever since and when congress failed to possible shit in brazil about seven years ago it was no big deal at all with just some limits to salaries and current expenses in israel if they don't get a budget by they descend by december thirty first deadline be automatically revert to the one from the previous year the united states democracy has made such

mechanisms to resolve the deadlock on american political commentator noam chomsky explains how it evolved. it's exceptional in the history of entry democracy it's interesting to see what's happened. there have been significant economic changes in the past generation where the economy struck down going through but one of the surface of the street groups specifically in the liberal programs you know having the same kind of perspective it was. a. direct wealth to a very narrow sectors the increase in inequality it was an immediate effect on politics. as power begets more concentrated political power of those as well so by now elections are almost bored.

supply talkers some of them are thank you both political parties of the right point . one part of the state the business party speak what all those rumbles of are not hundreds of thousands of people on unpaid leave because of the government shutdown but officials have made an exception for some federal workers learn more in every month is breaking the set in about twenty minutes time. monuments the store graveyards are all closed what do you see him full drum circles he ordered and kindergarteners plainly both looking for there is one group of federal employees deems so vital to this country that they have been ordered back to work now you probably think i'm talking about safety inspectors considering how ninety one percent of imported seafood isn't being checked and the fact that three miners have already died since the shutdown because of lack of oversight on the job

but no i'm talking about the industry that this government favors the most defense secretary of defense chuck hagel recently ordered most of its three hundred fifty thousand civilian defense contractors back to work citing that they are so critical to protecting national security they have got to keep the military industrial complex move and keep them happy after all war is what's funny in this economy am i right. the. attacks by keeping a close eye on developments on capitol hill add to our t. dot com for updates and expert analysis. there could be changes to the challenges facing the i'll take some right screen off to new details emerge in the investigation of the dutch of us all involved in last month's greenpeace protests lindsey france has the details. investigators found

drugs and including poppy straws and wood is reportedly more feet along with dual purpose devices this was discovered in the arctic sunrise when investigators did a search of the vessel according to the investigative committee this means thirty people that currently face piracy charges could face even more charges and of course that means facing. tougher jail sentences if convicted for its part green feet greenpeace says it's very skeptical about this information drugs are very strongly prohibited. in its entire organization and so of course it sees no reason any of these activists would have brought that sort of paraphernalia on board also it's wondering if the morphine and dual purpose devices that the investigators are talking about isn't the morphine and devices that the doctor at the on the on board doctor would keep in the cabinet thirty people do remain behind bars despite repeated appeals by various lawyers to secure their release so this of course all

kicked off back in september when the arctic sunrise was essentially the staging area for the activists who then launched their motor boats drove the boats up to the russian oil rig on the pecera sea and attempted to then scale the oil right that's when the security forces came out the netherlands which has two citizens involved in this debacle has launched legal action against russia to secure the release of the activists so this will be an international course of this will definitely not be going away any time soon and we will of course be keeping a very close eye as events unfold. there's already a different drama playing for the netherlands so the country's foreign ministry has apologized to moscow for its police of beating a russian diplomat recently in moscow demanded explanations i assume to offer the incident happened on sunday russia's embassy in the lenses says of the dutch police officers like here's a dimitri warden of

a mistreating his children the diplomat reportedly opened a door to a group of security officers who said his wife was in a car accident they then broke into the official's house and apparently attacked him with a weapon in front of his children before briefly detaining him as important describe the assault as a blatant of violation of the vienna convention. soldier come on our t.v. to watch out for the eagle eye it may look like a bird of prey but it's actually a high tech spy device that can fly a hundred meters above the target without detection we gave birth spotting in just a few. old. technology innovation all the developments around russia we've got the future covered wealthy british study done it's

syria rocking the stability of the entire middle east the old regional alliances are being broken and new ones forged in their place too unlikely friends israel and saudi arabia don't even have diplomatic relations but have not presently managed to find common ground plus their reports on the country's united front against the syrian government and its close ally iran. there's an unexpected union forming right now in the region between israel and saudi arabia unexpected because on the one hand while the two shape common rivals in egypt and syria saudi arabia particularly recently has been pouring millions of dollars of aid into palestinian projects both in gaza and in the west bank the potential impact of such an unlikely union cannot be overestimated israel brings to the party excellent propaganda skills saudi arabia on the other hand is able to tap into vast reservoir of petro dollars israel too has unparalleled influence over american foreign policy and the

result of these two countries working together is shaping international responses no doubt about it rumors are reports about. corporation secret meetings started to appear following the second lebanon war two thousand and six. when it became clear. iran is to become a major player here in our immediate region but also. in the gulf but this cooperation between israel and saudi arabia is problematic because saudi arabia gives so much support to the palestinians just recently it gave some ten million dollars to enrich the united nations relief and works agency for palestinian refugees this is an addition to an extra two hundred million dollars that was donated to palestinian infrastructure projects one such project is unlawful in gaza

where homes are being rebuilt for palestinians whose lives were destroyed during the last israeli will the result is that on the one hand you can see them. cooperate prizzi's and when it comes to iran on the other hand they had close contacts with hamas on the one hand the initiate there are a peace initiative. on the other hand the word support him directly for. this is the ambiguity you can find in the. saudi policy many are asking the question whether israel is in shooting itself in the foot by forming an alliance with a country that supports its enemies policy r.t. east jerusalem. despite their differences israel and saudi arabia share views on key regional issues both countries one regime change in syria with saudi arabia strongly backing the rebels both nations also see iran as their main and geo

political rival and want to neutralize the islamic state and the israelis and saudis are united in the backing of the military government in egypt which has taken a strong stance against islamists meanwhile the united states could not find it more difficult to exert its influence on the region according to investigative journalist robert perry. it had this building up of mutual interest between these two very significant powers in the middle east so it raises the question of whether this very significant although unlikely or a sort of fairly unusual odd couple relationship between saudi arabia and israel might present might create a new superpower in the in the middle east if saudi arabia and israel could figure out a way to work together you would have you could have israel providing it's very tremendous sophisticated political operations involving both the israel lobby back in the united states it's six appears to get

a propaganda techniques with what the saudis have which is vast amounts of money united states would might find this problematic in that while while both saudi arabia and israel are american allies if the two of them or to collaborate more formally on some of these issues like a syria for instance or ran or egypt that could put the united states in a position of not being able to work its will with quite the freedom that it's had in the past. without a world outside with more news from the middle east to more time bombs have had an israeli army post on the golan heights wounding a soldier according to the midstream they were apparently launched from syrian territory israel says aid returned fire in the golan heights have been under israeli occupation since one nine hundred sixty seven flying from the civil war in syria has occasionally spilled into the area in recent months. six

a difference it's been designed to look like a native birds now it's already in operation as a bird strike avoidance system but like how say that they want to expand its uses as a surveillance drone they could also eight firefighters albeit in drug trafficking operations to to rome known as shepherd milk was showcased at this year's international in london the average price is one hundred thousand euros and giving a whole new meaning to bird's eye view the company claim it's so well camouflaged that compared to standard these the fly about thousand meters and texted this train can fly just one hundred meters above the enemy without being seen in fact in the sky this a big advantage this is thing has. one of the front of the other at the bottom. in real time information to the ground station to decide what to do or

a passenger in california pulls out his gun toys with lead then shoots a student in the head and see if they disembark but apparently no one saw it because there were inquiries there with their phones and tablets the disturbing story. and the might there be some light at the end of the tunnel for julian a son jus has not left acquittals london embassy for almost again the hope is asylum and light is now asking the international criminal court for help. in an increasingly crowded u.k. it's rush hour for the countries to cemetaries graveyards are rapidly running out of space and are predicted to be for within the next few decades so the authorities of come with a controversial idea to simply reuse them or smith reports on how even that may not solve the problem. as the saying goes nothing is said but death and taxes and while u.k. government is very good at collecting tax it's not so good at providing for its

citizens inevitable to molly's because on this small island with soft running out of space to bury the dead according to a recent study of her account almost hall said burial space in that areas would run out in the next twenty years and a quarter said they only had ten years left and it's no surprise them confined to london cemeteries like this one and several rural councils already say they're full meaning people will have to go elsewhere for that thought i know resting place and all that despite the fact that already seventy four percent of people. symmetries in the sustainable when the food local authority has some difficult decisions to mike does it build another symmetry. capital cost and then of course it's gone now the symmetry to mind tying increased my costs so there's a pressure to increase. an over the a solution would be to open more cemeteries but

the limited amount of space means that's just a holding tactic you could force people to be cremated also not workable which only leaves a very emotive option reusing graves by digging up any remains and then taking deeper to make space for more burials and the disturbance of human remains without lawful authority at the moment is an offense in the ministry of justice won't give a loss and it's to create a new barrier spice although they'll give a lawson's to clear a church yard perhaps build a supermarket or a car park which seems a little bit old. at the moment reusing grace is only allowed in london cemeteries and although it's an issue that affects literally everyone. it's not exactly a vote when i say typically governments just avoids talking about it but experts say those in power must come up with a workable plan on burials rather than just burying their own heads in the sand.
