criminalization of a generation this is a time when trying to second marks the eighteenth time these people gather for this simple message it's not a gentle be how they treat us they shoot us like animals and that's completely unwarranted it's literally on warranted when something breaks through like trayvon martin. league re-emerged sean bell it gets treated in the media like this is a isolated incident something that rarely happens and then more often it's not reported at all organizers have been documented cases of what they call the stole lives project they say just over the last two decades thousands of killings have taken place by the hand of police officers they say the majority of these cases have been under reported or brushed aside hundreds every year were killed by the police that the majority of them were unarmed and not involved in any criminal activity when they were killed and also the majority of them were young and either
5:06 am
black or latino in the mass media is a very good propaganda saw a lot of people under the impression that people are being stopped and frisked who are being gunned down somehow criminals one of the major concerns for these protesters seems to be the lack of accountability when it comes to gun violence police brutality and even killings that occur under the hands of law enforcement they see the justice system continues to neglect these cases of violence thus not doing anything to improve the system and bring about real change you have to go through hell and high water just to get a conviction of the officer and what he's convicted for doesn't meet the crime that he's accuse anyone so if not. e.-n. found guilty even if he's convicted he gets out on good behavior after serving minimal time activists and families of victims called police brutality in the u.s. a pandemic considering the united states lectures the rest of the world on human rights it's time to follow its own example not just words but deeds.
5:07 am
are still a lot to come for you in this program including washington and its most useful friend in the middle east the going through a rather rough patch saudi arabia says it's reconsidering its partnership for america failed to strike syria and then went ahead and promised talks with iran although the u.s. is downplaying the drama saying it's all a bunch of hype. no poetic justice in qatar human rights groups condemned the fifteen year sentence for an activist who criticized the regime and the written word. from moscow a roadside service has been held in volgograd this in memory of the six victims of a suicide bombing on monday more than forty others were wounded with doctors still fighting to save the lives of those critically hurt lindsay frons piece together exactly what happened on that day from the unassuming start to the horrifying end
5:08 am
october twenty first started just like any other monday here and people woke up with places to go and things to get but heavily using bus stations just like this. but for several people needing bus number twenty nine they could never have foreseen how quickly their lives would change when they took that ride. the route ran without incident from morning till afternoon it's a one person got on board thirty year old lie you see all about that is when things took a tragic turn anastasio the very honorable was on her way home from classes at the university laughing and talking with the other students crucially it was in the middle of the bus which saved her life was the real truth when the boss who did everything around me when flying and from that moment i don't remember anything on the recall being thrown onto her window then suddenly finding myself on the street and in a panic i realised something had happened to my hands i was covered in blood. it
5:09 am
was right here at about two pm local time that a blast ripped through bus twenty nine filled with about forty people first responders thought it was perhaps a malfunction of the bus fuel systems but aside from the shop they fell to ask themselves if this was a gas explosion was the fire. that broke loose rock or that everybody in the blast was touching their faces and heads asking what happened what happened there was a lot of blood on them and a lot of flesh everywhere i was very afraid i got out of my car and i saw the head lying there i mean my friend took a young boy and his father to the hospital the remnant of an explosive device told the tale shrapnel t.n.t. and a grenade the accident site became a crime scene while edgy hottest from republic of dagestan became the central focus of the investigation and then the story took another twist the attack wasn't meant
5:10 am
for volgograd at all as the all of a had apparently taken a detour. she had purchased a ticket to moscow and boarded an intercity boss that passed through volgograd when the bus was almost at the city limits i see all of our gateau and went back to downtown volgograd right now investigators are trying to find out whether this move had been planned in advance or are over altered the plan along the way looking for a place packed with as many people as possible also under suspicion are three men believed to have helped in the plot to attack the russian capital two from dagestan wanted for twin terror attacks there in two thousand and twelve were said to be waiting for her in moscow on his way there was a see all of us husband dimitri sokol of an ethnic russian convert to islam missing since two thousand and twelve some reports suggest the couple had an argument shortly before the attack which may have caused a last minute change in her deadly plans authorities will be keen to find her
5:11 am
husband in the hope he may have the answers lindsey france r.t. involved a grad it is that well known that terrorists tend to plot their attacks hidden away in small clusters called cells but terrorism nowadays could be changing and criminals opening gaging in society and using social media to raise their money aussie correspondent paul scott reports there's an islam so we don't even know what happened please help us. well this is the russian t.v. program called wait for me it's june two thousand and thirteen and a distraught mother is making an appeal for information for the return of her missing son who's been missing for around a year now it's the type of appeal that's been at hundreds of times before over the years and at first glance nothing appears to be out of the ordinary and likewise this appeal in a russian social networking site doesn't appear to be out of the ordinary it's an appeal for funds so that a friend can receive medical treatment for an incurable disease while the friends
5:12 am
turn out to be naïve. the suicide bomber who carried out monday's volgograd bus bombing the son turned out to be dimitri circle of an explosives expert wanted by the authorities and living on the run having converted to islam a married couple headed to dagestan after meeting at a moscow university also received believe that at the very same time these appeals were being made public plans for monday's volgograd bus bombing were being hatched and those who donated rubles to help a sick woman or phoned in information to help a distressed mother later discovered those capable of carrying out such atrocities don't always shun mainstream society and in some cases play an active part in it. but on the web site right now we offer witness accounts the dash cam footage and more on the alleged perpetrators you can also find out just what the suicide bomber was doing exactly how she managed to also get the influence and nothing how radical
5:13 am
circles to get the financing for her operation are still to come in the program here on r.t. revelations of the sheer scale of n.s.a. spying in france it's got the country's politicians in a state of shock. if you're going to follow the same direction confrontation might be electable that's yet another report exposes the alleged u.s. surveillance over us and the unleashing of a swarm of spy ware deep inside the hard drives of diplomatic computers. on the gifts that keep on giving as young women in the u.k. take to specialize online dating sites are all in the hope that older men will shower them in cash and gifts that's just around the corner. interview.

5:15 am
if you're just joining us welcome to the program here on our america and his best friend in the gulf may be in for a difficult break up saudi arabia's ruling families rather upset with changes to u.s. foreign policy now the worst case scenario for washington just could be a disruption to oil supplies however white house officials insist this whole row is all a bunch of hype but as ati's guy nature can explains they've been wrong before. saudi arabia hates the fact that the us didn't bomb syria saudi arabia did everything possible to make it happen and he did saudi arabia hates iran and any mentioning of a possible nuclear deal between the us and iran and washington and tehran are far from any deal really but even the talk irritates saudi arabia so saudi arabia decided to go public with all that invitation the saudi prince bandar bin sultan
5:16 am
said there will be quote a major shift away from the us and that it will affect arms purchases and oil sales and most recently citing a protest against the us saudi arabia refused the seat at the un security council so could an ally be turning into a follow i spoke with professor doubt. the us has invested a lot in the relationship with saudi arabia and now saudi arabia is rightly the us i mean talking all supplies and all we're is this alliance going well. but heavy price by supporting saudi arabia saudi arabia and many of the gulf countries are the most undemocratic the most corrupt and. they have contributed to the sense of alienation between the. so for saudi arabia specially mr bungle to take this position
5:17 am
a little bit of polishing. but i think i don't think that there will be a total disconnect but if there will be one it was really the best interest of the . whole. the u.s. would not be associated with a country that is the generator of terrorism it will not be associated with a leader like bhangra who is. playing a major role in the bloody war going on and supporting terror the u.s. now downplays this shift with saudi arabia possibly thinking that the saudis are not going to go too far that the u.s. has underestimated such thing as before with saddam hussein he was an ally of one point with a majority in in afghanistan and other folks so in this case it all depends on how four saudi arabia is actually willing to go with this number in virginia i'm going
5:18 am
to strike them and to qatar where simple rhymes can get you behind bars a court has upheld a fifteen year sentence for a poet was found guilty of insulting the ruler and inciting violence against the government the decision for the activist who was sympathetic to the arab spring has now been condemned by various rights organizations nicholas mcginn a researcher from human rights watch he says the case was clearly politically motivated. what we've seen of the poor is that we're on board on to the internet but doesn't seem to be a say in that you know guilty of these offenses and of course you know these offenses are a country of the international standards of freedom of expression and we saw it it does seem to be a case that has a political slant to it yes it gives out about the manner in which he was treated pretrial here in addition to that he wasn't present for many of the original trial stations invite he wasn't even present for the the final court of appeal decision which was a yesterday morning when i was you know what pressure on both agree i'm not seeing
5:19 am
a lot of pressure on me make it out of the emirates and i'm can't i was doesn't have the same levels of the mastic this and as they do it's the same story the issue where they are getting pressures migrant workers' rights no boy but generally speaking i think the international community can be a bit silent where the goals can sound and obviously. to some extent enables them to as you say to get away with some serious human rights violations and lots of goodies for you right now at r.t. dot com including a very special souvenir gifted from iran to russia a copy of a cia spy drone and tehran says it shot down two years ago the story at r.t. dot com includes how the machine was captured reverse engineered and decoded and why there you can also check out this story on r.t. dot com about a range from orbit a european science satellite expected to fall back to earth after two and a half years of certainly working overtime though it will split into more than fifty pieces during re-entry where the debris ends up without anyone's guess.
5:20 am
just turning twenty minutes past the hour here in moscow in his latest official statement on n.s.a. spying in france the u.s. has labeled allegations that it logged millions of phone calls a lie but that doesn't stop the newspaper le monde from. this one about how america got the diplomatic upper hand by bugging computers at the united nations more than half a billion dollars reportedly used to keep the so-called genie spy program running a genie being the sibling of the notorious prism project it allegedly saw millions of machines fire walls and routers all getting infected and dominique de villepin who served as the country's prime as well as interior and foreign minister he says once again the u.s. has simply crossed the line we knew that. some. were existed but the search and overall system this came
5:21 am
as a surprise for everybody in fact what we are seeing today is the incredible privileges of the u.s. administration over the control of the world system we knew that the us were controlling the financial system through the banking dominance of some big banks through the dollar currency reserve currency but controlling internet controlling the formation you know well this is a privilege in monopoly if we are going to follow the same direction then confrontation might be electable we'll hear it out here we spoke to a civil rights activist norman solomon he thinks the u.s. is trying to undo the damage to its image but isn't for a moment even considering changing its policies president obama is extremely adept at dancing through this kind of a firestorm and saying that he's willing to disclose and willing to be more
5:22 am
forthcoming and he's willing to re-evaluate frankly he said that earlier this year when there was a big. clinton about the use of drones and yet we saw almost no change in actual policy once it could be measured so i think one way to put that in context is that after secretary of state kerry arrived in paris in the last day he told a news conference that he would not discuss intelligence matters so there's a lot of fog coming from the white house and the state department not a lot of substance. is beyond sea world update now starting with athens where the parliament there is passed a law banning government funding to parties if their members were involved in criminalities that means the golden dawn party's funding is to be frozen after saludos were charged in the connection of a killing of an anti fascist musician death which caused massive protests there the party denies being a neo nazi movement despite its swastika like symbol. bank of america says the
5:23 am
us government has failed to produce any evidence to back up its lawsuit for mortgage fraud with a four week trial coming to an end the bank could be forced to pay a six billion dollars fine the institution is accused of misleading lenders during the housing boom of two thousand and eight with some economists say the government's just searching for scapegoats so the banks that were responsible for the how it was the government that's actually losing the banks right now i mean housing has been overstated for probably a half a century as the root directory result of washington policy is this is every u.s. president was like housing housing housing is greatest thing ever the banking industry was just sort of riding the wave they were looking for were willing buyers at the prevailing price and they found them mostly with. government backed. to iraq with twenty five police officers and three civilians were killed in the

5:26 am
relationships through the website some form of physical intimacy the remaining twenty percent claim to be platonic i spoke to the site's founder brandon wade about the criticism that this is another form of prostitution it's like the power of it's like a mother you think this is what i mean it's how you use the system and how you use the mind well it's a tool to find a better find or it can be exploited by using the site to really explode people or as you say to do the illegal the websites say they operate a robust system to weed out the gating illegal activity and they kick off roughly one hundred members every day for violating the rules and if you're wondering by now what the payoff is my mom is she hard as a prosecutor. she heard that she actually stop. you. do have
