we've got the future covered. was. more civilians saw five year old boy among the mug killed by army shelling in eastern ukraine even as the president prefers a peace plan promising a ceasefire. iraqi forces on the brink of reason control of the country's biggest oil refinery just radicals that have reportedly already taken over an airport and are advancing on baghdad. a group set up to fly the empty years to matches and adopts militant tactics in fonts threatening to kill those who don't share the point of view. they activists like greenpeace are left to wonder exactly one plants are being used at nato after the head of the alliance or goes public with

this conspiracy is about the things that even. this is arching international live from moscow you with me to bomb would say it's good to have your company with us this friday. we start though with the unfolding tragedy in the east of ukraine where crackdown is claiming the lives of more civilians. trying to get yourself pushed she would be thirty north of. the house despicable people switch off the camera. moments to get rid of the wife or my daughter said look they started shouting i told you to get into the basement immediately she grabbed her son turned around and that's when the shell hit she was no more. there are scenes where from of the eastern ukrainian city of slavyansk

this is what it looks like off to weeks of a tillery and a strikes ukrainian troops on targeting what they say a terrorist but their latest victims were anything but as artie's woman calls a ref reports one family lost two members as a result of mortar fire the shell landed right in the backyard of a private residence a woman scrambled to get her son as soon as she heard explosions and was shipped pick him up she was killed instantly while the five year old boy received multiple headboards and was rushed to the hospital however the doctor was unable to save the child's life and the boy died during an operation the doctors worked all night trying to remove thirty shell fragments from his head his father said the shelling was conducted from a location known as the base of ukrainian forces elsewhere another orthodox church came under fire to look around scary it was partially destroyed and the shell killed their taker to the shelling continues despite present version goes promised ceasefire and there he is the peace plan the fourteen point proposal to end the

violence in the east was discussed with lot of a person as well it was the second time that the leaders have talked over the phone about ukraine's crisis in a week and president putin has once again stressed the cease fire must be implemented in the regions once prosperous cities in eastern ukraine are little more than ghost towns now tens of thousands have fled the affected areas is a remain suffer from water food and polish up to just realize keys are forming on the border with russia as people hurry to take their children to safety. comes to somebody who. is very scary as you see flying planes any time i saw them i ran to my mommy and daddy and tang also very scary. it's the special forces were aiming at our buses their fuel buses very scant and thank god i managed to cross the border safely. it's a battlefield where constant fire my parents hide in the basement with think food

to have a skewed because we wouldn't have lasted long i don't understand why they're doing this we've lost everything. when radicals came into my city and started shooting people we had to leave the scariest part was when armed men came to our house asking about our landlord a few days later my son told me that they shot the landlord. some four hundred thousand ukrainians have fled to russia to escape the horrors of war according to russia's migration service over just four days the number coming over the border has increased almost twenty percent their fate is shared by millions of people across the globe who are forced to seek out their own or safe havens later as u.n. report shows or the total number of refugees globally exceeded fifty million in twenty thirteen for the first time since the second world war the number rose by six million in just one year pakistan iran and lebanon other three countries

housing the largest number of displaced people mainly because of the war in syria. they rocky army and jihadi fighters are in gage in fierce fighting over the economically vital baiji oil refinery n tell our far airport reports are just government forces have been overwhelmed tal afar and are surrounded at the refinery washington says it dispassion what it calls three hundred military advisors to iraq and have a listen to what president obama had to say. because of our increased intelligence resources we're developing more information about potential targets associated with . them going forward we will be prepared to take targeted and precise military action if and when we determine that the situation on the ground requires a. while to better understand how exactly the u.s. president is planning to help but you rog let's listen to our tease every moment and she picks

a part of the details of his speech in the latest edition of breaking the set here's a preview of her take on obama's words because he spoke mostly in a vague military jargon you have to listen closely to understand the underlying u.s. response to isis is growing influence while obama insisted no troops would be sent to actually engage in combat he did announce it would be sending up to three hundred military advisors to the country sounds innocent right unless you consider the fact that so-called military advisors were the original precursors to the us invasion of vietnam but probably the most interesting part about obama's speech was his claim that iraq is a sovereign nation that has the right to choose its own leaders seriously when did iraq become a sovereign nation the minute the us and realize that it's a war in the country result in the creation of yet another failed state because see you know western powers have done nothing but violate iraq's autonomy by dismantling its government launching depleted uranium and white phosphorous attacks an occupied its people for the last decade this is old news to me the rapid advance

of the islamic state in iraq and syria group is a major cause of concern internationally they're told getting of the capital baghdad and plotting to establish an islamic order in the ruins of a failed state artie's gannets again reports on how iraq could already be falling apart. iraq is on the verge of erupting isis is controlling a predominantly sunni part of the bach shia sphere there further onslaught kurds could split off at any moment a secretary of war is brewing now the government would have to make a strategic choice putting the entire army to attack and take back that city and risk a much wider sectarian fights or have this group in control of an area that was a response with all the consequences not just for iraq for the region and for the world isis belongs to a faction of sunni islam committed to radical fundamentalist convictions that they seek to impose on other muslims their advances have long stopped being just iraq's

problem these darker green spots are where the population is predominantly shiite you can see iran is the main shiite power in the region syria is largely sunni but the government of bashar assad is alawite which is a branch of shiite islam isis being an extremist sunni force has managed to advance this far both in syria and iraq because of the support of sunni communities on their way iran wants to help iraq's shia government repel the onslaught of isis an initiative which washington seemingly supports but targeting sunni areas which isis controls could create a backlash with other sunni nations getting involved like saudi arabia which has already warned against foreign intervention there's not going to be a simple military solution to this issue isis is also controlling parts of syria fighting against the government of bashar assad these problems are intertwined in a really demonic way u.s.

politicians have tried to present the conflict in syria as being between those who want democracy and those who don't for many of the crisis in iraq is an eye opener showing how complicated the dynamics in the region really are. going to check on r.t. washington d.c. . the curzon nosy. see iraq are fighting on their own battle front after isis launched the youths advancer kurdish forces push the islamic out of the city of kirkuk taking control of a vital oil center and defense consultant. believes the kurds have been given a chance to create their own independent state but the country's been broken away as it is. it's most of the broken we wanted to separate the oil rich or kurdish region in the north away from the main iraq it's been sort of from the beginning from the ninety's the americans gave them the possibility of a semi autonomous region now all it's. been running the kurds have been running

their own kurdish region since the ninety's. and now all they're going to do is break away from iraq once and for all. independence or really numbering around the ten thousand fighters the ranks of isis are now swelling by the day including with recruits from the west intelligence analysts estimate of three thousand foreigners have signed up with isis so far britain foreign minister says four hundred of them are believed to be british now the steady flow of fresh recruits is in part thanks to an intricate online campaign being carried out by web savvy jihadist recruiters and their efforts appear to be bearing fruit here's one twitter user from the u.k. voicing his approval of the isis onslaught in iraq and syria and he is another this time from germany hoping the jihadists will claim victory and it's just not just in the west where this is happening the internet supporters of isis come from all

across the globe. the u.s. or even asia actually is a surfer it has more. from the front lines in iraq in syria and another battle is being fought in the u.k. this week band. making it an offense to be a member of the group but the organization is still enjoying a wave of online european support dubbed by some the fan boys well i've been speaking to some of the supporters and i vs one station media why supporting isis despite the reported killings and he's applied for me that he. has come the closest yet to establishing an islamic caliphate why do you think isis holds such appeal for some of the people back home i think. if you could to use this overused word in its. terrorism six places more than the ones that have

actually gone to trouble they're going to come back all the people here in the u.k. when are you going up the trouble to be identifying with. the two constituents is a potential threat. exists ever since nine eleven so in a way that constituency has always been that it's possible that they'll be more encouraged by. what's happened in syria and become more active not as a direct result of. the film on a sort of wave of islam isolation of the world and then you've got the people who actually come back and who can spread who can become active recruiters and that's a really dangerous thing that's a meeting is the national security council this week prime minister david cameron said the government was doing all it could to dress the threat posed by foreign fighters including interviewing individuals the u.k.

folders canceling all with touring u.k. passports and introducing new measures to prosecute days he planned to train. there is a rule. of four should be united states and its allies have known about crisis and their activities and the danger they pose for a few years why haven't you stop these groups from privilege why do you allow these groups to get stronger and stronger why do you allow certain countries to support them financially why do you allow for artistic issue the last estimate the number of british fighters abroad at four hundred and growing professor griffin tells r.t. the government now desperately needs to strengthen its response to some of the most precious people coming by people who pretty disillusioned by what's happened. and who can produce a counter narrative of people. seemed from killing an explosion does to a baby and comes back in terms of stopping it that other side of the

story could be more crucial than ever much of the british population watches in horror the grisly images of some of the killings taking place in iraq at the hands of isis fighters but to its european supporters ice this is not the enemy the west is certain are reporting from london. a number of european states have passed laws allowing them to deny entry to nationals they suspect of being part of islamist groups but what is journalist karen looks well does say it's the west itself that helped create and arm those radical movements. we have seen that the group of the friends of syria of which germany is a member they supported militarily financially and politically groups fighting bashar start know these groups are shifting over to iraq and they aren't actually

by gulf states and for example the german government the german arms sales have more than doubled to the skull states over the last two and three years so they have known what they are creating and now they are afraid of the spirit they created that they come back to their homeland so i think it's quite hypocritical. and coming up so if the tensions there in contested the waters a tiny village in the philippines could soon turn into a multi million dollar u.s. military base as washington expands its presence in the highly disputed and results laden south china sea.

i'm. on mariner in the financial world. series development cannot stop any city there is only techno to build credit. in life there are. speak your language i mean from a below not against. programs in documentaries and spanish matters. a little eternity of hanging story. here. the spanish find out more visit actuality.

thanks for staying with us here on r.t. international a conspiracy theory put forward by the head of nato has left the warriors at greenpeace to question whether he might have a love of certain plants himself and. suggested russia is profiting with environmental groups in europe to campaign against fracking he believes the move is aimed at forcing them to buy gets from moscow that left a greenpeace spokesperson to wonder what they've been smoking over at nato headquarters nato deployed its own p.r. people pretty swiftly to point out restless and was only expressing his personal views about the meeting she brought head of the energy unit at greenpeace russia says humor is the only reasonable response to claims like this. while there was no any evidence we can see that it was. real serious ground. but this is. a continuation of political debate in iraq.

which greenpeace try to keep distance we so very difficult to accept and take this argument quote seriously. so that's why we try to common base this kind of statement great sense of humor so i think it's not serious. i don't know what was the background of the states there. are members of a right wing vigilante group go on trial in france today charged with making death threats against a journalist but they're not ultra nationalists or neo nazis they're from the jewish defense league which claims to be a bad thing and the met is a cost of all reports i never know what they have a strong following and a clear message as only we are here present we are jews noble and cruel we are well trained well equipped we're not afraid and we should be more afraid of us than we

are them the jewish defense league claims its goal is to protect the jewish community from hatred and anti-semitism but some jews accuse it of doing the very same thing it's meant to be fighting against and these people say the organization is not protecting anyone but attacking those who don't share the same views and opinions jonathan mahler doppler claims he felt the wrath of the league when he started researching them in paris i exposed to with my friends some zionist felony in the book crazy for doing this in september two thousand and twelve my car of been bombed by a. bomb i received death threats and a couple months ago i went to cover a protest against anti-semitism they reconnect me and they were like fifteen people jumping on me break a my camera and. beating me up on the ground what is being done to prevent this from happening again what is the police doing at one point then. veined took me out of the protests and i told them there were many of them on the place so i told them

why don't you reckon this oh if we do anything it will create a riot the jewish defense league is an international right wing organization even though it's considered a terrorist group by the f.b.i. it's completely legal and countries like canada and france where it has around three hundred members. caprice is present of course but it's not everywhere so we have to do what they are incapable of doing correctly from attacking left wing students propose to me in groups and even writers at their own book launches the league has been accused of being behind a string of violence but the victims say the police have no interest in investigating and accuse them of willful and action. is a pretty strong in the police we know there are some people the will to do their job but at some point you have people in europe here that are blocking the five and one those people that go on trial the judges most of the time they're being they're

being lenient in two thousand and four a documentary actually filmed members of the j.p.l. training in an official building that was being leased by the police if the police are calling them while they are training how could they arrest them really had no desire to talk to us when we contacted them about their publicity speaks for itself these issues are do not get in our way because will hurt you very very very badly various local movements an answer rightism activists have called for the group to be banned the french authorities have ignored those calls and those who feel victimized by the group are left looking over their shoulder marina cosgrove are reporting from paris for r.t. . the jewish defense league burst onto the scene several years ago after an end to sematic scandal involving the british fashion designer john galliano he had been caught on camera in a paris cafe expressing his love for hitler and insulting to women he believed to be jewish the group responded by later targeting the premises covering it in

posters labeling an enemy of both israel and france. i know but i'll tell you dot com of the rise of female bosses in russia and international business report shows russia has the world's highest proportion of women in top management positions at forty three percent which is double the average figure for western companies. also on the website. the. mall on our website for more information and stories we're covering here on. the pardon me edward snowden has. leaked pardon me

a small village and the philippines could find itself a second fishel pawn in its government to fight for the resources of south china sea a huge american military bases planned for the same area with the philippines looking to use increase military copper ation with washington as a way of keeping china bay now the two allies are planning joint drills and a disputed area that beijing claims ownership of this month but journalist james colbert's believes the present china is in china could lead to a conflict this has to be seen as just part of a trend towards the deepening of the us and philippine military alliance that goes right along with the developing u.s. japanese military alliance the us australian military alliance so i think this has to be seen as more part of a regional trend that's developing both china and the us and its allies are playing to their respective political bases and they're looking for economic stimulus that comes from militarization so they are looking to divert more government funds towards the defense sector i think it's part of

a feedback loop where one side makes a move so the other is seen to respond to it so the other side responds to the response to. cetera and i think when we are caught in that type of feedback loop it runs the risk of running into a some type of military confrontation scenario simply because when you have all of these ships in these highly disputed territories that are at times running into each other as we start to see these types of incidents that could become a hot war scenario perhaps inadvertently. politicking coming up next. i marinate join me. for that impartial and financial reporting commentary

contribute and much much. only on from past and on. right. first. and i think you're. on our reporters quicker. on the. people versus barack obama that's the name of an explosive new book by commentator and best selling author ben shapiro has the obama administration acted like a criminal cobol as shapiro alleges and if so is criminal prosecution of a sitting president the answer in lieu of impingement ben shapiro is here to make

the case on this edition of politicking. taking on larry king he's editor in chief of bright brought news and in new york times best selling author his latest book the people versus barack obama but. criminal case against the obama administration is out right now and ben shapiro is my guest joining us here in studio thanks for coming to face reality. is two years into his second term you're not going to impeach him are you bringing criminal proposing criminal charges against the administration or spears who well i mean there are certain specific players within the administration lois lerner at the i.r.s. the attorney general for one who would be subject to criminal charges the problem

is that of course that the department of justice is the only body that is that is capable of bringing criminal charges at this point under federal law but actually make the case for in in the people versus barack obama as i make the case that the rico act the rackets are influencing corrupt organizations act nine hundred seventy which allows for civil charges to be brought people can file civil suits that be brought in to allow people to sue members of the executive branch so the people themselves essentially would become the guardians of the criminal law because sorry but i just don't trust any executive branch to to prosecute its own guys are you bringing this road to the president so if we could share i mean the question of sovereign immunity would he do hands on that's criminal law see this is the problem this is why you have to use the rico act so no president is ever going to have to do things almost a richard nixon presumably now and there are tapes is going to have to do things that are that are particularly hands on the government is run much more like a mafia ask organization in which you have somebody at the top who makes a basic demand that certain things be done and then somebody at the low level says

ok well you know i want to up my career when i do this right this henry the second with thomas back at great when will no one riddle me a read me of this meddlesome priest and then somebody goes and read some of the meddlesome priests it is odd that all of the scandals all of the criminal activity in the obama administration has already founded to the benefit of president obama could we make this case against any persons around us and we're against reagan weapons of mass destruction against bush every administration has had people under them who have lied or done things we've given by washington well i'm not sure we couldn't was i. i think that certainly i'm sure something was done the washing was relatively clean but it would have but if you look at you know george w. bush or if you look at bill clinton or if you look at ronald reagan sure i mean the answer would be that you could and people should be wary i mean this is this is sort of the case that i'm making is that we've become so comfortable with the executive branch of the government abusing its citizens and violating our rights and violating what they're structured to do under the law that we've just become used to it and if we start treating them as criminals maybe they'll think twice

before they act so criminally in the future or we mix and we had tapes and there was a possibility of them diving if you remember the right only did impeach but he would have had to be impeached this is the problem under the law then and right because the way that it works is that under american law barack obama could literally strangle somebody on camera today and he would have to be impeached and then he would have to be tried in the senate and convicted and only then could you actually bring a criminal indictment against a president that you can't bring a criminal indictment against sitting president so your point of the book is to my good statement rather than to bring a case where you are expect cases to be filed i would be shocked if there were cases to be found there have to be actual alterations to law which i suggest that would make such things possible. what's the crime in benghazi the crime in benghazi there are two crimes in benghazi the first is probably the violation of the arms export control act the shipping of guns into libya in the first place right that is actually illegal under the arms export control act any time the president of the united states or anybody in the executive branch if i were to ship weapons into libya to a terrorist group i'd be prosecuted the president of the.
