we. receive. then for the muslim brotherhood in the gypsum court confirms almost two hundred members of the group will be executed their top leader among them. a russian border checkpoint comes under ukrainian army shelling even as the cease fire is the clarity but moscow says the peace plan looks more like an ultimatum. the price of the world's most expensive job just one years behind schedule and billions over budget the f. thirty five crashed by the designer of one of america's most likely why took planes . to go to the region the pool is now larger in this country but it was like queen victoria was on the throne thousands of britons march on parliament demanding an

end to the calls they believe have brought the country's poor and middle classes to their needs. it's time pm in the russian capital you're watching artsy international with me marina cos right thank you for joining us. now in the direction the courts has upheld death sentences for almost two hundred members of the muslim brotherhood that's including their top leader they will be executed for having attacked the police station and killed police officers during their protests in support of mohamed morsi who was ousted this president and sense of prison last july well true reports from egypt. well egypt is bracing itself for possible further violence in the very least mass street demonstrations by the families now this case has sparked international uproar the judge reportedly only had one session before he sentenced

dozens to death. i could see. any evidence so shut me down has been questions raised about the legality of the trial and that's all the different stories are going to be. but it will be overturned on the grounds that the judge by the cover this is coming the fight. against the rubber hits the state blames the group which they for a lot of the violence across the country they say it's a terrorist organization the mission brotherhood for their part say they are remaining peaceful and will hold demonstrations against this verdict without any violence egypt's new president. has promised peace and unity in the country however is yet to be seen how it's going to happen we have very clear sentences like this so we will have to see in the coming few weeks where the egypt will be able to get through this. huge pressure was put on the muslim brotherhood after a military coup in two thousand and thirteen the new government resorted to death sentences for those accused of extremism as

a method of intimidation now human rights groups say almost twenty one thousand people have been imprisoned since july and in april nearly seven hundred people were convicted to death in the preliminary hearing although less than a third of those sentences were upheld a month earlier a court ordered the execution of more than five hundred prisoners but the same judge later confirmed only around forty of those death sentences hugh miles in the ward winning journalist and author of things the latest ruling will provoke more violence. the protests continue and it's the very common pharmacare of many people being arrested because they say they're going to many but they continue to be in remote areas become free but i think the real effect of reading it is to push young people into the arms of the extremist grades. that. the muslim brotherhood is going to experience. not given much because by seem

well young people to one demographically how taken away from the result is the people she's going to join both parties is. getting while getting results like. coming up here on r t international we had to iraq where a million people have been displaced by the insurgency sweetens for the country that's according to the u.n. and it's feared that number will continue to grow as islamic militants and iraqi security forces battle for control later in the program we'll bring you the very latest development. a russian soldier has been injured after a border checkpoint with ukraine was shelled the incidence of flies designed to government forces clashed with ukrainian troops and the country's east it's reported the mortar fire came from the military as refugees crossed the border and our team managed to speak to one of the witnesses. from you so i went to the.

children in the review. as i was coming up to them people were screaming and running the tune it was several. to see women and jews were growing for some time and when i came. there are the fighting around eighty ukrainian border guards fell back into russian territory where they asked for shelter six of them were wounded all have now been safely handed back to ukraine according to the country's border officials want to answer government leader has said there will be allowed to return to duty at the front two year meanwhile russia's president has called the fighting the germans ceasefire on acceptable. a lot of our putin has put troops stationed in central russia on alerts will be a more right in this around sixty five thousand troops are taking part in the drills that will last a week. moscow says it's worried about the military action in eastern ukraine continuing despite a cease fire put forward by the country's president on the ground the army and

antigovernment activists have accused each other of breaking the truce now the ceasefire is part of a fifteen point peace plan which includes an amnesty for those who agreed to lay down their arms and haven't committed grievous crimes the creation of a ten kilometer wide offer zone along the border with russia changes to the constitution to guarantee the free and safe use of the russian language these centralization of power to the eastern regions early local and parliamentary elections and one of the plans top pledges is to guarantee safety for all negotiating sides although saying that himself is refusing to hold talks with leaders of the self-proclaimed republics russia's foreign minister has been highly critical of the peace plan in the video published on the ministries facebook page he says it whacks a key element. you know. the peace plan has a number of automate unlike demands it lacks the most important thing those

negotiations and that's a radical step away from the geneva agreement which is supported in their rhetorical at least by all our western partners including the us the e.u. and the ukrainian authorities coal miners and workers in eastern ukraine are taken up arms and swearing allegiance to the self-proclaimed and yet square public they say they don't trust president poroshenko peace plan art is wrong koester was that a ceremony which saw the new members sworn into their writings. only a matter of weeks ago these men were digging for their country today they're taking up arms against it these miners are the latest recruits for the uniformed fishel army of the self-proclaimed people's republic of donetsk. just yesterday we were all wearing mine is uniforms and mining calls today we joined the ranks of the militia to protect our motherland and i loved ones and to stop the killings of children women and the elderly the defense force has been quickly drawn together in

a bid to counter the government's crackdown on the eastern provinces even before the troubles began these men had made repeated complaints to kiev about poor conditions low wages and the money from the wealthy industrial region going straight to the central authorities. but now those very authorities are firing shells at them the miners say they have no choice but to defend their families. as it were given ultimatum to the key of june to offer its punitive actions will give them a day to stop the crackdown two days to withdraw troops it appears the word coal miners doesn't mean anything to them but unlike them we miners and are making good in our words then you get created armed forces have only the most basic of equipment and that munitions sport but when it comes to defending their loved ones they're ready to use whatever it takes the coal miners have made good on their promise to work and pick up arms in case president carter park and go does not stop

the operation of within twenty four hours today here on lenin square in donetsk. soldiers gave an oath of allegiance to the people's republic of donetsk for a month offer of r.t. that's ukraine. months of military action has forced tens of thousands to flee to neighboring russia hundreds of the border seeking shelter and refugee camps and you can hear some of their stories on our team dot com. we will now meet the world's most expensive weapon the four hundred billion dollar f. thirty five now the aircraft to surprise sign just one even higher thanks to additional funding plagued by delays massive cost overruns and bloated bureaucracy the jets left even its top backers some warts on the well md and to cover the price the plane is now being seated to foreign buyers as artie's marina portnoy explains . the f.

thirty five stealth fighter jet is the crime to look ram of military planes. and the pentagon's most expensive conventional weapons program it's a game changer the f. thirty five fighter jet is manufactured by lockheed martin combining state of the art technology with highly advanced avionics and maneuverability the pentagon plans to buy nearly twenty five hundred f. thirty five but delays and cost increases have left u.s. lawmakers frustrated over the three hundred eighty five the billion dollar price tag and that's where america's allies come in. lockheed martin has turned to international partners at least eight foreign contracts are on the table but none have a final price tag so far canada's latest calculations have only proved that the cost will be at least ten billion dollars higher than expected experts suggest f. thirty five are something of a gamble for everyone involved there's never been anything anywhere near as

expensive and the entire process is one in which the costs can only go. the other problem is that the more they spend in the more the united states and the manufacturer and now a whole bunch of other countries become invested more they have to go ahead in any of these countries that want to become a good deal that they have no choice boosting demand from foreign investors is believed to be essential for the pentagon and lockheed martin why because the more f. thirty five are produced the cheaper each jet is to build and maintain her in a porsche nine party. the f. thirty five has suffered. there and the other in the most recent case the it's hard for me it was grounded and testing suspended after one of the plane suffered an oil leak but the engines are not the only area where this aircraft is experiencing problems in fact if you move on then you're about to see here the plane has been

suffering well documented cracks from head to tail now the pensacola even stopped it from flying within forty kilometers of a thunderstorm fears its fuel tank could explode the struck by lightning now we spoke to the man who helped design the iconic of sixteen and a ten aircraft and they had this well that's a say about the f. thirty five it's one of the worst airplanes we've ever designed. for a lot of reasons but the most important reason is that it was compromised by having to do three different jobs never make a good airplane if you don't focus on a single job a single mission and then they made it even worse by saying that we saved money by divvy it up among three services so now you have three missions pulling the airplane in different directions now you have three services three bureaucracies adding their parochial points of view the airplane is a complete mess and mind you this is the most expensive single project that the

that the defense department has ever undertaken. this thing for a promo campaign coming up the u.s. offers hard cash for ideas on how to gain support for its trade agreements with europe but gets only a stream of sarcasm and condemnation. also. the beautiful game later was sort fact from fiction surrounding the infamous holligan and six of russia's football fans. first though thousands of britons are marching on parliament demand in the government's reign and its wave of cuts among the protesters are politicians celebrities and union leaders all upset with a blanket austerity imposed by london arts the center for reports from one of the crowd. will be until stirred see protesters making their way to central london at the moment you take a look behind me you can see the crowds that it turns out i love you so full

a day before it's been a very serious message from those who take came to london please now the people who gathered today protesting against government cars and if you take a look at some of the signs there's a whole range of the seas everything from education good job of the i don't know what they really are asking for the father to go to all star to find out the real terms of the court even the u.k. has been doing that was people here say that they see a real time in their living god they want to say well they're on our take or support the hasa today it's all about too long just for a living son this is queen victoria so i'm afraid in the eighty seven seas over a million workers driven into poverty since the quake had come and live in where you have an army of zero contract workers people stripped she joked security was also to finish the fight for a living wage fight for housing fibroids his rights fight for public ownership of the banks to tax justice against tax avoidance and so on and that's really at the

heart of this whilst the government will say the economy has been only up that has been improving but a lot of people here say that they've seen as a result of the cuts that have been voted to piece the economy the living standards of for the so those are the stories you're going to hear today as people have taken to the street as central london the protest against the starts. and we have more news coming your way after a short break to stay with us. they are looking very hard. to. get

back with her but there's no. such a big. welcome back to artsy international will continue now with other news if you can convince

them just all for a cold hard cash and that's exactly what the us government says they're one promising large reward to anyone who can come up with ways of promoting an unpopular trade pact with europe by the campaign has worked out its plan as peter all of our now explains. the united states has been accused of a cynical propaganda campaign after a tweet originated from its embassy just behind me here. this tweet was with regard to the transatlantic trade and investment partnership between europe and the united states now the tweet was offering up to twenty thousand u.s. dollars for any project people could come up that would protect the treat deal in a good light snow it has come in for some scathing criticism from people here in europe mostly because of worries over a decrease in standards the standards for products in europe are far higher than they are in the united states also on workers' rights as well now this is seen and

vajra mentalist environmentalists trade unions and health campaign is all railing against this trade deal to put that into perspective of the public opinion here in europe when it comes to the environment ninety six percent of germans say they have faith in european environmental regulation well only two percent believe in regulations inforced in the united states there's also been controversy surrounding genetically modified foods not like here in europe people have demonstrated against them however there is concern that because of u.s. labeling laws they could inadvertently become into the european markets so all of these things the same criticism of the street well it's kind of they have come in for far more criticism online because of this. the investment partnership deal comes with plenty of bold promises trade barriers would disappear along with any

regulatory differences between the u.s. and the e.u. predict a boost of around two hundred fifty billion dollars to america and europe's collective g.d.p. which would expand both economies but critics say all this comes on too high a price they fear corporations would use the agreements to gain too much power over governments and that sax players would end up footing the bill for anything that goes wrong the sheer size of the new trade zone and the lack of transparency would make it much harder to hold companies to account for breach of regulations michael shank of the washington based friends committee on national legislation believes it's a step backwards. well that's good for investors it's bad for health it's bad for the environment it's bad for labor and it's bad for regulations that countries and states have worked for decades to institute so those are some of the biggest concerns and what it says to russia or what it says to china with the t p p is that we don't want you a part of this conversation and in this very globalized interconnected world

particular and trade because we don't have many barriers between us and you already so when we're doing to tip it's not really about removing trade barriers because the tariffs are quite low it's about saying to the rest of the world we have this partnership it's exclusive and you're not going to be a part of it and you can always had on to our web sites r t dot com where we're looking at how environmental groups have been responding to a surprise now like ation from the head of nato bringing peace to the words when reacting to chief rossmo since claimed that it's taken orders from the kremlin as part of a plan to subvert the government find out what exactly was signed and i don't see dot com. also there japan may have failed to score during their latest world cup match their fans have left the surprising impression on brazil that's why keeping the stadium spotlessly clean get the full story and the full picture on the artsy. well compared to the japanese fans there are potations of russian supporters

couldn't be lowered they reportedly displayed neo nazi banners during their side's opening world cup match in brazil some have scuppered speculates of this could lead to the national team being deducted points by fee for our season exodus of skin investigates the origins of russian football hooliganism and what it's like now. showing support for your team in russia could mean this this. or this. your first in one thousand nine hundred eighty when sporting was playing cisco in moscow we had a huge fight of great blue warriors came up against us there was more than eight hundred people involved in a brawl but not show and that is just one of the fights i see described now a retired hooligan he says fan culture has changed massively russia did it you a stereotype of an english football hooligan or an italian is no longer applied to

us we went our own way now there are no loud criminal cases against you look at them compared to the ninety's back in the soviet days football was considered one of the nation's sprites history's best goalkeeper left yosh and the team which won the first ever european championship and the police of revolutionary managers with the break up of the soviet union football just as many other spheres of life suffered a major setback it may be a coincidence but along with these problems came whole again as and it's still unclear what caused this surge in violence but in recent years russian hooligans have remained visible from violent pitch invasions to mass three grannies and racist incidents involving swastikas in the stands near nazi views and you know phobia are among the most debated issues back in twenty ten when a fan was too old you were fighting in moscow that escalated into ethnic violence thousands of ultras made themselves heard right outside the walls of the kremlin. of record all politically motivated people have always been close to find groups

not only have they propagandize the culture of violence but they explained why this violence was needed that's why nasi views of popular there because force and violence are the basis of naziism and fascism but former hooligan and founder of russia's largest fan movement the market than i ever believes the. she was often blown up in the press and problems are usually solved even before they appear. to spearhead events at the mine down in ukraine some of them are in the national guard now so potentially this is a very dangerous part of society but are all thor it is a pursuing a very clever strategy with hooligan communities so there's no danger from them in russia these fights happen every weekend but no one knows if they happen out of town in forests and strictly upon agreement from. the twenty thirteen movie tells the story of a firm of hooligans consisting partially of white collar workers where death and destruction rough shoulders with love and friendship one of its characters keeps

asking the question why do you fight is your meetings. with all of us. the movie slogan is we can not change real life has proven they can insist it's just a matter of whether the rest of the world will be happy with this evolution of the russian found when the country holds the next world cup. let's see moscow. another new seventeen militants have been killed in iraq during infighting between ansa governments and the groups over one million people have been displaced by the insurgency since the start of this year according to the u.n. and that number is only expected to rise as the army tries to push back the advance of an al qaeda offshoots isis which wants to establish an islamic state spying several countries is already in control of large parts of iraq including the second largest city in the lawsuit and it's now closing in on baghdad as well meanwhile the first of three hundred u.s. military advisers promised by washington to aid the iraqi security forces are due

to arrive later today but me they stay expert joshua landis believes the u.s. is reluctant to push this too far in view of the catastrophic results of the two thousand and when they show you you can watch the full interview in the worlds apart here tomorrow on artsy but here's a little preview. this entire isis episode shows the incredible strategic blunder of president george w. bush in attacking iraq and casting down the sunnis from the top of society to the bottom destroying the state of iraq which kindled this sectarian struggle the united states is debating today about how much support to give to maliki many people believe that he is too sectarian that if america supports him it will offend sudanese turn to send the world against the united states and alienate our support in the gulf therefore they're very reluctant to get in with direct military support

they would like to get diplomats on the ground to begin negotiating as they did. during the occupation. that's it from us for this hour but up next bizarre cia schemes and movements to take money out of politics that's a break in the science but if you're in the u.k. george galloway explores the roots of the insurgency and iraq that's inspired think they stay with us. recently four hundred high level russian officials including duma members were someone for a three day military training event that would include the use of various different weapons and lectures about the state of the russian military the stated objective

of all of this was to make the average soldiers in the army aware of the patriotic attitudes of those who can order them off to fight in theory this is a good idea but the reality is this kind of reeks that sweet stench of an empty p.r. stunt this is not nearly enough to convince the average grunt that the guys in power care about him as far as i understand it in the military they want to push people to break down their psychology and boot camp so they can make new better tougher more patriotic people and obedient ones as well the sort of cutesy who we can camp will not have any psychological effect these politicians and to be honest i think bureaucrats the world over have it too easy their lives are too comfortable heck all the duma deputies have these nice leather chairs and they have gold watches and assistants and all that stuff i think that if the duma deputies had to suffer through a military health for one month out of the year the corrupt comfort obsessed weaklings might get squeezed out of the system this training for the elite is a good idea but it needs to be done right and brutal but that's just my opinion.

you know to be mean for plugged into what human. being paid to be used to talk to me but really close which was coming to me right. just because to see that. statement that we had before so interesting to me. because what you see this year we've taken control of brazil. we did receive. i'm abby martin and this is breaking the set so recently i broke down some of the

craziest cia operations you've probably never heard of as it turns out now there is one more to add apparently during the cia's search for bin laden the agency hatched a plan to get to distribute a doll resembling the taliban leader in pakistan here's the catch when the ball is exposed to heat its face melts into a terrifying demon in order to scare children from the real life in london yes this is actually real now how the toy never made it past the prototype stage of this bizarre scheme exposes that even dolls are being used in the empire's propaganda war but see the government was indoctrinating children with notions of good and bad long before the bin laden and ayman al consider that the same hasbro executive who worked with the cia to create the bin laden action figure was instrumental in the development of g.i. joe as well.
