world's attention to the place that some. of our time. we are not blind and i don't think push us secretary of state kerry responds to israel's criticism of proposals offered to iran during nuclear talks over its nuclear program that ended in argument and no agreement. britain stands accused of using its preliminary is a listening post a spy in the german government revelations like these pushing some to take up the cause of privacy the don't share our information about our customers but if you don't have a warrant our team meets the owner of a tiny tech firm resisting the real far reaching operations of u.s. surveillance agencies plus. with around ten thousand feared dead in typhoon haiyan that devastated large parts of the philippines we look at whether there's any defense against nature at its most ferocious.

three am in moscow mattress to bring you today's top stories and a look back at the week's news the breakthrough that never happened iran and six world powers failed to come to an agreement on tehran's disputed nuclear program france refused to accept any short term deal stalling discussions with iran's supreme leader accusing paris of open hostility negotiations scheduled to resume in nine days while american willingness to work out an agreement was sharply criticized by its ally israel or his policy or has the details. a delegation of high ranking american officials is currently in jerusalem where they will be updating prime minister netanyahu government on these talks that happened over the weekend in geneva and the progress that was made and wasn't made the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu says that the impending deal is bad and dangerous those

are the words that he used the agreement was failed to be reached this agreement of course coming between iran and the united states russia france germany and britain it on yahoo however saying that the proposed deal will lift the pressure of sanctions which have taken years to put into place and at the same time it leaves iran with its nuclear program and its enrichment capabilities intact what is. this it would make. of that. we are not blind and i don't think we're stupid i think we have a pretty strong sense of how to measure whether or not we are acting in the interest of our country and of the globe particularly our allies like israel well despite the fact that the diplomatic diplomats could not come to an agreement the united states and its allies have said that they have narrowed their differences

with to rand in the talks that took place over this weekend the main difference comes from the objection from four months with france objecting strenuously that the proposed deal would be would do too little too could you rein him in which meant program or stop the development of a nuclear reactor that would be capable of producing plutonium the french foreign minister laurent fabius say that he could not accept what he called a fool's game the talks will resume in some ten days and then we will see a fresh bid to end this common standards throughout the week we interviewed the international experts who shared their thoughts on the nuclear talks in geneva. i'm believe that this the current french government has very close both israel and the saudi regime and that they have a great deal of influence they are playing good cop bad cop with the americans obama is suddenly being much more reasonable and he's attitude with the iranians

the french are out there on the flank saying oh you must agree too easily israel must be protected and so on iran says we're going to be more cooperative we're going to be more transparent. i dissent and wants the out of sight to be more serious that they have to start lifting the genocide that sanctions those sanctions are killing ordinary iranians but in iran a slight warming in relations with the u.s. provoked a furious backlash. hard line conservatives there furious at attempts to engage with washington venting anger by burning effigies and throwing stones at the former us embassy find out more in our report online at r.t. dot com. britain allegedly operating a listening post in the heart of germany's capital targeting parliament and the chancellor's office is believed eavesdropping equipment is hidden in this tent like structure on the roof of the u.k. embassy only steps away from the bundestag it's apparently capable of intercepting

phone calls and long distance communications across the city revelations based on leaked documents hit a raw nerve in berlin which has been trying to get washington to explain its tapping of on the merkel's phone london said it won't comment on intelligence matters yen stomper from germany's pirate party says the countries the country knew its allies were listening in. the german government of course did notice what was happening on the roof top of the u.k. embassy because it's clear for everybody who looks at that building what's going on there but i think that the german interior secret service they are not allowed to investigate the l a's and this is simply because germany right now is such a class pot now of the b. of the us and they want to become a first class partner so our government is simply selling our privacy and their own privacy to climb up the ladder and the face of the n.s.a. is far reaching surveillance program hardly any tech firm can now guarantee one

hundred percent privacy but artie's marina port and i am at the owner of a small provider in the western u.s. who has managed to so far stave off government eavesdropping. we decided to open a data center and here we're taking an exclusive tour through one of the few data companies standing up to the u.s. government in the name of privacy i think we do residential are very well pete ashdown is the owner of x. mission and independent internet service provider based in salt lake city utah this tower here handles most of our e-mail unlike most power players in silicon valley x. mission refuses to give the n.s.a. backdoor access to its networks since nine hundred ninety eight x. mission has rejected a judge in the u.s. government for more information stored on private servers like these we don't share our information about our customers if you don't have a warrant the majority of law enforcement requests ashdown says he's received and refused have been subpoenaed is lacking accountability and necessary approval by

a judge this is actually an amiga since launching his company in one thousand nine hundred three ashdown says he's filled no more than two customer data requests from the federal government. on the current climate of america's unrestrained surveillance matrix has been facilitated by corporations who have spent years secretly working with the n.s.a. regulation government contracts and. monetary compensation are in my opinion the three reasons why they're cooperating ironically utah is probably the most unlikely home for a privacy champion roughly twenty seven miles away from x. mission. is the n.s.a.'s newly constructed one point five billion dollar data center i think it's a strain on the tech industry of utah all the n.s.a. activities are staying on american internet businesses ashdown has vowed to face

jail time if that's what's needed to protect his customers from being monitored what surprises this fourth amendment advocate is that big data companies like google won't promise to do the same marina port r.t. utah. typhoon haiyan may have left up to ten thousand dead in the philippines according to local officials though the government says that number can't be confirmed just yet. and named. ok storm the fourth most powerful tropical cyclone ever the strongest to hit the region the central city of tacloban are ravaged by a disaster leaving thousands of homes destroyed the red cross has confirmed around twelve hundred dead so far but the number of casualties will rise many of the worst hit areas remain cut off from rescue operations that i phones already reached vietnam's coastline forcing six hundred thousand to flee coastal areas and expected to move on to southern china where a state of emergency has already been declared meteorologist robert coral what

should be done to minimize the consequences of such disasters in the future. the intensity the energy in the storms in the pacific have gone up by fifty percent over the last thirty years or so and this is largely due to a warmer ocean warmer atmosphere so we're going to see more of these very severe storms so-called three four five category storms. in some cases when the communications systems are very active we can give good warning to other people in other cases when those are not there or not as robust it's very difficult for everybody to know that such a severe storm is coming so preparation is going to be absolutely essential and the countries are clearly going to have to make the kind of decisions about how they're close or populated in order to minimize the impact. well still to come in the

is still the price today but it's said that the cuban government has been refusing to accept this money for decades the castro government said you know we don't want this lease anymore in the united states' position was that it's a binding lease and in the lease it actually says that it can't be broken unless both sides both countries agree to that that strikes me as a very odd contract servant territory that the u.s. has occupied against cuba's wishes since one nine hundred fifty nine most officers come here for short term of up to nine months or longer deployment of two to three years far from a whole life isn't put on hold and you can't date certain people wait and certainly have if it's away from your like rank system then you're allowed to you know there's the downtown lyceum and open air movie theater playing all the hottest hollywood blockbusters and it ticky bar to let loose after a hard day's work even though most say schedules aren't that intense anyway we

revolutionaries and now in the worst scenario we have been since two thousand and eleven. should be tried but his comment that mubarak trial should be held up at every turn while the most the trial is moving along so fast what shocks me is that the authorities never seem to have the will to push through the court cases of remnants of the former regime to three square ones the heartbeat of the revolution has become just another busy round. about in two thousand and eleven in two thousand and thirteen people came here demanding bread freedom and social justice but after the military ousted mr brotherhood president mohamed morsy hundreds have been killed and thousands arrested eating some to fear the freedoms and justice will never become a reality admits this violence rights groups have little faith that the trial of mr morsi and other mr brotherhood leaders will be fair this coming at a time when there is a general crackdown that gets a brotherhood a very selective prosecutions on the part of the justice system looking only at

brotherhood members with impunity for security services meanwhile the retrial of egypt's other ousted president hosni mubarak drags on the feeling the security apparatus continues to shape court decisions means egypt's future is hard to predict the military is entrenched in school and finance and so on interest again and again the problem now that we need to sit down and agree on a specific cooper transitional justice either you're tarring everyone or meaningful we're taking the road to the south africa bureau and many many other that this talk of evil speech that seems far away as pro morsi protests and clashes with security forces continue to rock the nation the fear is morsi is trial will not deliver much needed justice to egypt the brothers set the stage for further instability and turmoil. turning now to some other stories making international headlines in vogue area about a thousand people took to the streets protesting government plans to open

a yearly basis this stately home in norfolk was built in the late nineteenth century and while much of the state remains intact parts of it have been left to wreck and ruin and restoring it to its full glory could cost up to three million 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 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 them going the reality is that the cost of maintaining these houses is so great now their stocks it tend to be a very asset 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 through the great unemployment because of the great recession. i'm not i don't have many skills that i can so i

to have to pay three times more for according to yahoo news the president's administration wants to force military retirees to get out of tri-care their current plan and added to obamacare the plan calls for them to raise premiums from up to ninety to three hundred forty five percent within five years one example provided by the free beacon estimates and a retired army colonel with a family currently paid four hundred sixty dollars a year for health care would have to pay around two thousand dollars make you pay even more for your war injuries apparently that's what obama is actually planning while he is reading those lovely speeches off of teleprompters people who are against the post nine eleven war against who knows what. are often told that they don't support the troops well do the people who say bring the troops home never advocate tripling their health care premiums no they don't all of the chicken hawks who send the troops off to die in questionable wars are the ones who want to make them pay even more for their injuries but that's just my opinion.

it is a blow to the us government the super cold rule today that the prison is it going to move to legally challenge their detention in us schools. and what we want is an immediate cessation of conditions that are cruel inhuman or degrading or that constitute torture by growing chain scale human rights law enforcement training the most grueling is now demanding the release of food to the names so that they can. the government has so far refused to release the names why do you know how many we have you sure. know. not today well it seems like a perfectly reasonable request that gee why don't you just give us all the names it may not be. that is what i asked. i never heard of her knew of her until guantanamo you have to have our store and

a moral i took any part or see. that's what i. was like a wake up call i mean as i could i would have been submerged in the stonewalling efforts of my government of my colleagues there and get. going along with that stonewalling and do placing these obstacles in the way. of these attorneys who are trying to get information. nearing the end of my tour there . are sometimes going to be a don that's going to be done by me and has been have a short amount of time to do it. barber all sense he wants the next i know where i get the next. inspect your bags they look at your things and you have something like that. they're going to prosecute you and i knew i made

a list of names they're not gonna let me off the howling with that. this so you figure out a way you know how my going to get off the island. and that's when i decided i would minimize regular pieces of paper. and off to where i could put it in a card and mail it off the island. my thinking was in when i went through the postal system was that whoever's handling that card would if it's a little bit thick would think that maybe it's photos or something inside of it. which is not uncommon and it just happened to be since it was january or the next holiday coming up was found last day so when i went shopping at it stands for my card it ended up in the be distributed chihuahua dog. and i wasn't sure i was going to do it i mean it's just something i stayed awake at night sometimes.
