this is our coming to you live from the russian capital i'm marina joshie welcome to the program now the trial of egypt's ousted president mohamed morsi has been adjourned until january next year the former leader is in court on charges of insider killing of protesters in december last year hundreds of business supporters have gathered outside the court in cairo amid a heavy police presence well you know across live telegraph spawn's polis leader and belcher who are in cairo and follow the very latest. well the atmosphere here in front of the police academy as you can hear is very very charged the proceedings agenda show time because they will start again on january eighth with me is bill truth value inside the court what actually happened there well as we do. the air has been adjourned until the eighth of january in

about three months time and then purpose of that is for the lowest have a look at these enormous case files this is said to be his biggest find to six thousand pages long and all the noise concerned both those opposing most in his aides and those against him in the trial haven't had an opportunity to look at those files yet so they need that time in addition most he hasn't actually had any access to his know if he's been kept since he was ousted incommunicado in an unknown location today was the first time that we've seen him it was the first time his lawyers have seen him so they meet these three months to have a look at it what's important to know about this case what i learned today speaking to the different noise is that there are grounds to charge him and the people there today on grounds of incitement to kill protesters and looking at the evidence it looks like they were definitely grounds for this case so it's not entirely political although obviously it's been carried out in quite a politicized way it was very charged in the courtroom as the different lawyers were basically shouting out and basically saying they needed more time to look at this very contentious case it's also very charged here outside there's some twenty

thousand security officers that have been deployed throughout the capital city and a short time ago there was a scuffle between journalists and some of the the mostly supporters what was the atmosphere like inside the courtroom when it was equally as charged as soon as we saw the members of the missing brotherhood and the political aides of mohammed morsi of course ahmed mostly in the south the whole place erupted into contrasting chance mr brotherhood themselves mohamad mostly said they did not really recognize this court they say that illegitimate and that the most he remains the president of egypt meanwhile those who are standing against him the legal teams against him were saying execution execution he must return to jail he was extremely raucous in that one point a fight broke out between journalists and said no is the lowest of mohamed morsy accused jealous of being paid by the state one journalist got up on to the side of the side and basically almost threw his shoes at a lawyer so it was extremely charged it was very tense at the missing brotherhood.

kept repeating and mohamed morsi care beats and he was a loser just a bit president this was a fake trial this was a political trial and that really the just missing needed to prevail in this court case needed to end as you say morsi keeps insisting that this is a fake trial which is the reason that he says he will be defending himself having said that though this some twenty five lawyers that optus a painting for the defense but only ten of them have actually been given access to take clients of course morsi is standing accused of inciting murder alongside fourteen muslim brotherhood supporters now there are nationwide protests that have been called full throughout the country there is concern that as the day progresses it could descend into violence with most seats lawyers saying that they will also only given some seven thousand pages of testimony a few days ago and that it is impossible to go through this this is widely being seen as bell says as a political trial of course tensions here running high we'll keep you updated back to the studio. and of course you can follow bell's twitter feed for all the very

latest updates from the egyptian capital she's got all the details from the board hearing as you just heard and the scene of ongoing protests. the in the. now the two thousand and eleven gyptian revolution solved long time army backed leader hosni mubarak step down followed by a year of political turmoil in june twenty more so became the country's first democratically elected president however his push for an islamist backed constitution sparked deadly unrest in december that same year violence erupted again this summer and to morsi protests prompted the military to oust the islamist leader followed by a vicious crackdown a muslim brotherhood supporters in which more than a sow's and people were killed political analyst and journalist was going door believes the trial is part of a. broader political clampdown on islamist ideology egypt. all this is seems

a bit like deja vu for egypt another president another trial in less than three years and what we're seeing is a rerun of a politicized trial course there are things that president morsi has done just like hosni mubarak has but i don't think that he's on trial. for the for the exact crimes that he's done or the reason he's being put on trial is because of is muslim brotherhood ideology and the way he ran the country with the intent of trying him is not really to state of law or democratic transition or or you or any of this stuff the same time we're seeing a lot of his. ministers that were part of it the interior ministers that served under him rabbi actually felt protesters they are not being tried along with morsi and so therefore this is seems very very highly politicized and the man of the

people who want to see a lot of the muslim brotherhood behind bars. now a day before the trial began a u.s. secretary of state john kerry met with addiction leaders in cairo and he's cold for fair transparent justice for all citizens in cross stop peter lavelle and his gas debate the role of washington place and the events unfolding in egypt. rejigging the middle east where the united states still maintains a hedge of monica this is what their ultimate goal is they don't really call kerry a care about the coloration of the regime as long as it plays into a security arrangement but washington can feel comfortable with and let's not forget tel aviv and riyadh. i think that's true i think ultimately the security that having a hedge money over the region. and stability whether that comes through democracy or through with or tearing regimes is ultimately the end game plan because the united states has too many interests in the region to allow it to fundamentally

opposed to those interests so when the united states acts it always does so with a view of you know what what how can how does this inform our counterterrorism policy how does its inform our counter-proliferation policy how does this inform our energy policy it's a rule of issues that comes to the fore with the united states there's and ultimately there's a massive conflict of interest problem that the united states has to deal with when it formulates its middle east policy. seventy human rights organizations from around the globe are sounding the alarm over the erosion of freedom in britain and they've written an open letter to the u.k. prime minister blasting the government's response to surveillance leaks are to sarah ferguson more on their appeal. well some very strong words for the prime minister there from those human rights organizations and they're fighting back against what they call the eroding a fundamental rights in the now let's take

a look over some of the main points that that letter raises and their concerns center around the use of terrorism legislation against david miranda when he was detained heathrow airport they also talk about the sustained pressure against media organizations reporting the edward snowden leaks the guardian newspapers come. to mind back they had government officials actually enter the building and destroy the hard drives now i think a very interesting point that the lesson makes is a for the potential violation of freedom of expression now this is the argument we hear the u.k. government use a lot when they're condemning the leaks being published that it's damaging national security in the in the letter it says that the protection of national security can be a legitimate reason for limiting the freedom of expression but and this is the really important point that governments must demonstrate that the expression actually

harms the national security not simply enough for them to say that it will now coming up this week we're going to see the heads of m i five m i six and t.c.h. key questioned in an open evidence session that's going to be broadcast by a public satellite link so this debate certainly not going away however much you can imagine u.k. government will be wishing it will right now and of course we'll be bringing you all those developments as they happen or cia contract returned whistleblower edward snowden has released a man of calling on the world to uphold the laws and values which limits reveal and protect human rights he also slammed the u.s. and u.k. spy agencies as the worst of sanders attacks appeared and a german magazine and was sent to the editors from moscow vi and creep the channel argues peter oliver has more on the weaker statement. the spy can't be allowed to

dictate our politics that's according to whistleblower edward snowden writing in the major german news weekly beagle he's put forward what he called his manifesto for truth and which he condemns the security agencies around the world that have set out to smear not only him but also those journalists that have published his articles in various publications around the world he also saying that we need to stop this kind of spying culture that is taken over it's all part of a major major set of articles about edward snowden in this in the german paper it comes on the back of their support for edward snowden here in germany and in a massive increase we've seen a group of over fifty senior public figures calling for him actually to be to be granted asylum here in germany now the article it does say that something that perhaps the current german government wouldn't support because suggesting that some

of the skeletons in their own closet could come out if there was any big investigation into just exactly what had gone on in terms of the n.s.a. spying program however among those fifty that say it snowden should should come to should be allowed to come to germany is one that says one senior former german politician say edward snowden has done a great service to the western world and now it's up to us to help him so huge support for snowden and he's laying out his ideas right here in the german press. edward snowden insists calls to reform intelligence gathering agencies prove he was justified in leaking classified data meanwhile the white house has rejected a plea for clemency saying he violated the law and should come back to the u.s. and say some justice lawmakers supported the decision but also had some sharp comments regarding awareness of an essay operations i think there's going to be

some best actor awards coming out of the white house this year and best supporting actor awards coming out of the european union. mike rogers they had the house intelligence committee claim snowden put the lives of u.s. soldiers in afghanistan at risk however the leaker supporters say his revelations have hardly done and damage and are leading to necessary reforms former and i five agent and a mashad is urging to decriminalize whistle blowing who is actually breaking the law here because all the ground that my agency say they are legally allowed to own that appear to be very. bad that we seeing in the last decade is the sheer technological scale of the spying industrial scale that by and the new technology has allowed this to happen and the lose which is supposed to be democratically. how we are spied on just not keeping up the twentieth century knows and now we're

getting the twenty first century tech. and coming your way here on r t when cash is king u.k. aristocrats are left on the breadline. birthdays on the form and because of the great recession i mean. i'm not i don't have many skills that i can sell. our teammates the bluebloods who are now feeling the economic pinch that story more is just ahead for you. well. sorry it's technology innovation all the moves developments from around russia we've got the future covered wealthy british style it's time to rise on. the.

relations with washington the rally comes despite a statement from superman leader ayatollah minae who yesterday voiced his support for the diplomatic efforts aimed at ending the long running international standoff over iran's nuclear ambitions as some rouhani who came to power three months ago has faced harsh criticism from hardline opponents who say rhonda should not be seeking any compromise with what they see as a hostile power the united states to iran wants to have the crushing economic sanctions against it lifted and has signaled its willingness to make concessions on its controversial nuclear program at the next round of negotiations on the issue of false god investigates why runs diplomatic overtures to the west are getting such a hostile reception at home. let's argue movie islamic republic of iran is ready to engage immediately in time bound orientated talks to build mutual confidence and

the removal of mutual uncertainties housen rouhani as recent speech at the u.n. general assembly was said by many to represent a thorin in relations between tehran and washington a sign of the iranian leadership is king to initiate warmer ties with the global community but not everyone is king for this to happen. hard line conservative protesters threw eggs at the president upon his return to tehran and now those uncomfortable with the idea of increased diplomacy with washington have launched the first ever down with the usa contest the idea is to find the most creative anti us propaganda contestants are invited to submit photographs posters caricature poems him and blogs all relating to the slogan down with the usa over three thousand dollars are up for grabs for the winner there will be a prize for the best idea to mark death of america which will renew the concept of

death to america because of the arrogance of america the message is clear for as long as the us policies are hostile to us we will continue to use the slogan. well the slogan first came to prominence during the one nine hundred seventy nine iranian revolution when the us backed government which i thrived and since then it's been widely used by critics of washington those critics now favor holly's willingness to reengage with the u.s. could undermine the revolution they also see no reason to start diplomacy with a country that for years has portrayed iran as the enemy and subject of the country to harsh economic sanctions over its nuclear program states like the and their terrorist allies constitute an axis of evil this administration has systematically imposed the toughest sanctions on iraq on iran ever the united states is not going to lift the sanctions until it is clear that a very verifiable accountable transparent process is in place despite efforts

by the us government to suggest the sanctions aren't affecting the general population food clothes and even basic medicines have rocketed in price in recent days on the leadership's attempt to engage with washington has led to the american slogans and bombers appearing all over tehran in recent weeks with rouhani demanding many be taken down and with talks over iran's nuclear program looming large later this week it's not just the international community president rouhani has to convince police got r.t. . now the sanctions against iran have been enforced by the european union the united states and many other powers u.n. security council has passed several resolutions adding to the measures which include bans on heavy arms supplies and nuclear technology the e.u.'s restrictions range from gold trade to oil imports the united states has gone as far as an almost total of bargain on products financial institutions and aircraft parts all this has

crippled iran's economy and cause the national currency to plummet a former advisor to iran's nuclear negotiating team says iranians simply don't trust america. there's a group in iran that is deeply suspicious of the united states based on. long standing animosity toward iran is the widespread perception in iran that the us is engaged in a double speak toward iran on the one hand parking but engagement and respecting iran's rights and on the other hand adopting you very inflexible and hard line negotiation a strategy that demands much concession from iran without expressing willingness to you know show. any ability on the issue of sanctions relief we have seen a statement by the top u.s. negotiator wendy sherman that the u.s.

has not offered any tangible sanctions relief to iran last negotiation round in geneva and that should be very disheartening to many iranians who are looking for. concrete tangible signs of good faith to r.t. iran by the united states the dire economic situation has forced iran to seek external help china has reportedly agreed to find twenty two billion euros in development projects using oil assets previously barred by international sanctions regime in tehran deal in the want not the dollar so the sanctions did not affect china's business with its third largest crude oil supplier political analyst side mohammad marandi says america has failed to achieve anything with the sanctions. this is one of many signs that the u.s. imposed sanctions is not working and it's beginning. to fall apart not that the united states wants this to happen the united states wants to make

ordinary iranians suffer as much as possible they want to have a state the iranian economy and they've already succeeded in killing people because for example iran has had great difficulty importing medicines so the americans are definitely upset with this but as time goes on we are seeing increasingly countries moving away from the united states companies in nor in the united states and even individuals who are investing in iran without taking the sanctions regime into consideration i have to mr fighting back against america's global online surveillance operations. and indonesia and group claiming to be part of the international network anonymous has brought down the websites of scores of australian companies in revenge for the country's support for the and i say get the full story on our website r t v dot com.

pounds add to that gas electricity water maintenance the list goes on around sixty percent of british historic homes are now open to the public and use for various purposes such as weddings conferences and tours and this one in particular used to be used as a wedding venue and the reason for such diversification is to be able to generate some income for properties that are very expensive to keep growing the reality is that the cost of maintaining these has this is great for their stocks it tend to be a very asset and rich but cash pool something that holds very true for this girl even finding a job that didn't quite work out for him because there is great unemployment because of the great recession. i'm not i don't have many skills that i can so i come across drives so i've had a few part time jobs as a driver. delivery driver van driver more driver i don't know what my peers think they must think. i shudder to think what they must think of what's going

remember way back when we first talked about the first downloadable guns that could be printed out on a three d. printer at home while technology moves pretty quickly because british police have already busted in legal armory pretty out firearm parts and special three d. printers this technology may make gun control literally impossible in the same way that banning and burning books has become futile and the past they used to be able to just burn books or forbid them from being printed but in the age of the internet all you need is a scanner and an internet connection and the information that's found in a book cannot be destroyed because it is out there on the magical ether of the air at so basically the near future any person with even half a brain and some patients can start making guns in their basement which means the

gun control laws will basically become pointless because they'll never be able to catch all the people doing it nor will be able to take the guns not even obama or the hardest of hardcore liberals this technology could be the best thing to happen to the second amendment ever but fascist my opinion. lake baikal is in east siberia people are drawn to it by its beauty its energy and its benevolent spirits. old shaman. said there is a place we should sprinkle water and.
