thirty coming to live in moscow with me marina joshie welcome to the program now the e.u. is growing increasingly frustrated with its ally across the atlantic and is demanding explanations over the u.s. government's intrusive surveillance practices at a european summit in brussels all eyes are now on the n.s.a.'s fresh revelations of spying on european leaders force them to reconsider their partnerships with washington while france and germany are demanding talks with the u.s. on this issue by the and this year now and that follows reports that the n.s.a. has been monitoring chancellor merkel's mobile phone and tracking calls made by the french administration the latest n.s.a. leak has shown down the agency encouraged u.s. government officials to hand over their contact list and use that data to eavesdrop

on the conversations of thirty. five world leaders their opinion council has issued a statement warning that a lack of trust with washington could damage cooperation and intelligence gathering on top of that germany has decided to team up with brazil which was also targeted by the n.s.a. to push for a u.n. resolution restraining u.s. surveillance are just as are so he has more on the story now the latest document that edward snowden that provided the guardian we do see some some more insight into the process of how this global surveillance was actually working and the fact that it had spied on the thirty five world leaders is one side of the matter on the other hand it would also encourage a senior officials belonging to departments such as the white house the state department or the pentagon to share their contacts with them encouraging them to give the phone numbers of these people that they wanted to spy on and put them on this surveillance list and also what's interesting that came out of this document

is also the fact that it was a knowledge that the eavesdropping the listening in on the hundreds of people of thirty five world leaders actually did not produce much it produced quote unquote little reportable intelligence and also it's had some very real consequences already going up to the legislative level in the e.u. for example with the a parliament backing the new rules to restrict the flow of data to the united states and also any piece now calling for a suspension of a u.s. bank deal talks chancellor merkel has said that spying on france cannot be tolerated after reports of u.s. eavesdropping on her phone calls and done to editor of politics says he's expecting a major backlash from. responding to some very very tough rhetoric from the e.u. commission which is not prone to issue a tough rhetoric or things considered usually it speaks of the sort of. much more

robust language which does suggest that action is coming. and while that commotion heats up british prime minister david cameron is staying conspicuously silent and down says this isn't surprising. the u.k. is essentially indistinguishable from the u.s. and certainly g c h q works in partnership with the n.s.a. perhaps more of the sort of subservience incorporated partner. but nevertheless there's really no point trying to distinguish them while the reason that london is being very quiet is because london has its own secrets which will probably come out in the laundry over the next few weeks. the spy the e.u. expressing growing discontent with washington skeptics say these concerns are unlikely to go beyond formal statements u.n. diplomat earlier explained why. germany and a few weeks after the media down the big issues it will just go on and business as

usual that it's my expectations there will not any real measure it will remain states who have mental problems. are we are closely following the n.s.a. spying fallout over on our website that's r.t. dot com and with a detailed update and analysis of course. now immigration is another issue raring it's had at the e.u. summit and brussels hundreds of africans drowned in the mid to rainy and see earlier this month trying to reach european shores a crowd out in our crowd of boats governments in southern europe are demanding more help from the rest of europe to cope with the inflow of migrants are to spread all over a met some of the people who fled their homelands. we have feed we are not anymore we have feeling we all want to be jobless were homeless and thousands of kilometers from home this is the reality for refugees who were forced to flee violence in libya and twenty eleven there is no option not even allowed to work in germany

davis student we spoke with expressed shock over the lucrative ward doled out for police brutality that's what the pepper spray led to was not following orders and they wanted us to be an example for what you shouldn't do as a student and they wanted to put fear into people and it pretty much worked i remember after the pepper spray happened i went home and was deeply afraid of ever protesting again the police a slap on the wrist maybe for a moment awarded later if people are like we got money in a way that was a good thing when really he would go putting like trauma and fear and weapon on other incidents of police brutality extend from the west all the way to the east coast of the united states last month here in. new york city police officers attacks students who were protesting visiting professor position given to axial age

a more scientific approach and determine which substances are actually harmful to the user you know i've heard the argument that the war on drugs just wastes massive sums of money effort and lives and you need turn a futile battle which is true it does but the only option people give is just legalize all drugs there are a few problems with this when something is legal that tends to make it ok is it really ok for you to spend your whole life in a trance to avoid reality is it really ok for everyone in town on friday night after work to go on an ice crystal meth rampage the other problem is that the war on drugs fails because it's fighting the drugs and not the reason why people take them which is to escape reality why do people want to escape reality because in modern times or post modern times we live a soulless pointless isolated consumeristic existence of working in a pointless office job just to get poor so we can scrape by and get some cheap plastic junk at wal-mart when people's lives are empty they will fill them with something through a needle but that's just my opinion. she

hills this past sunday running as an independent she'll run against a lifelong congressman henry waxman he's been there for thirty eight years why mariam well i think there's a new conversation that americans are having about our country and about life and about the world and this conversation is saturating so many corners of our society but it hasn't been able to crash through the ramparts of the of the political system and so the thoughts that dominate our our politics today are calcified thought forms they don't allow in the kind of thinking that is necessary to move us forward and so what we have is a diminishing democratic french fries and i think that it's going to be people coming from outside the two parties the two parties certainly have their role to play but i think what we need now is the voices of the american people unfiltered by the kind of chuckle that the two parties have so i so what what what is your platform when my platform has to do with what i say.
