a russian cargo train in the donetsk region and all of this adds to the situation here that ukraine is currently living in. well one of the devastating consequences of non stop of fans it is that it's creating a shortage of basic supplies including of drinking water long queues have been seen in the worst hit areas such as the cities of slovyansk and kramatorsk desperate locals are trying to find a lifeline a line requests have been posted on social networks for those who have private wells to make them available to wider public. while in line we have more details about the shaky cease fire in the volatile eastern regions at a full time one of the crisis is also just a click away at home. relations between american and polish top brass of always appeared to be in rude hells at least for the cameras but a leaked conversation involving poland's foreign minister has revealed some rudeness of another kind maria we're now reports and how that's left the

establishment in warsaw faced. anding love affair america and its atlantic partners consistently proclaim their rock solid loyalty and mutual admiration as friends and allies we stand united together. warsaw has reciprocated the affinity always leaving the door open for a u.s. footprint within its borders. very glad to be able to say the american friendship and alliance is a strong behind the camera friendly facade of solidarity western partners are singing a much different tune the same polish officials seen here reportedly calls his nation's alliance with the u.s. worthless insisting it creates a false sense of security in a secretly recorded conversation obtained by w magazine foreign minister wratislaw sikorsky is purportedly heard comparing warsaw and washington's relationship to that of someone who's always performing sexual favors and receiving nothing in

return preceeding poland's vulgar tone one of america's top diplomats has exhibited her penchant for profanity dropping the f. bomb when referencing european partners so that would be great i think to help glue this thing and have the u.n. help glue it and you know the washington refused to confirm the authenticity of this new lens leaked comments instead blasting anonymous leakers for hacking a private conversation that's all part of america's rocky behind the scenes relationship with many of its allies german chancellor angela merkel for example had stinging words over the u.s. approach to privacy after she was targeted in washington's global surveillance operation this is in the interest of german citizens it is not about me specifically but a bottle citizens we need trust among us and this needs to do a story critics say mounting frustration on both sides of the atlantic is making it

harder for the western alliance to camouflage a steady erosion. of loyalty and cooperation they don't want to publicly acknowledge that there is a raft but i think until i'm this strong alliance there is a right every country should ultimately be thinking about itself if there is a drift between the e.u. and. the united states but this time around is really very serious. r.t. washington. political analyst khalid moppin believes the foreign minister actually put into words what many in poland have wanted to say for a while now with kind of obscene and somewhat racist words it was articulated what i think a great deal of the polish people probably feel poland supported the united states when during the attack on iraq the george w. bush called the new europe but yet they've gotten nothing out of it the polish people are suffering under extreme measures of austerity and now there are u.s.

troops piling in their country using it as a place to threaten russia and i think that this phone call that was leaked. revealed that i think that some of the anger was is widespread it's also interesting the point now that you know that in light of this in the recent victoria nuland tapes that in a lot of instances you know that the public officials you know while they may speak to the public in very clear and articulate words behind closed doors and their personal interactions they can be quite obscene and and it's a very different personality than what we see as the public. america's also made another european allies blood boil this time frustrating the french it's trying to find france's biggest bank and almost record amount president a long cold punishment unfair player a look at what's got in washington all worked up. also find out how dozens of women were illegally sterilized in california prisons according to a new report that claims the practice is systemic.

there's a step forward in getting a russian gas directly into your and agreements in place for an austrian branch of the south stream pipeline it would mean fuel supplies bypassing ukraine in the project was earlier partly frozen by brussels for possibly violating the blocs regulations scott is in vienna with more. in vienna austrian and a russian energy giants have put pen to paper on agreement that will see construction what begin on the austrian section of the south stream now the south stream is to transport gas from russia to europe but bypassing he crane is seen as a more stable and reliable route with tensions increasing between russia and ukraine now austria is keen for the work to go ahead despite deep divisions within the european union divisions that have halted construction work on the pipeline in bulk area earlier this month the bold garion prime minister decided to suspend work

on the pipeline on the rate after a meeting with three u.s. senators including john mckay who was quoted off the woods as saying that the project should have as little russian involvement as possible now the official reason given for a bulgarian deciding to suspend the work was in order to iron out concerns that e.u. competition rules had been breached however many within russia feel that the decision was politically motivated gary's decision to do that has had a knock on effect serbia for example might have to do likewise and put plans on that but however they are cane for the project to go ahead the president has been quoted as saying that the south stream will guarantee the long term energy security and create conditions for boosting the domestic economy while in italy officials are also kaine for the project to go ahead. one official saying that he will continue to support the south stream which is among the most strategically important infrastructure projects for the continent so there are clear divisions

between western powers but the signing of the agreement here in austria brings the idea of the south stream one step closer to reality now the first branch of the pipeline could be operational as soon as twenty fifteen and it is expected to carry around sixty three billion cubic meters a year by two thousand and twenty supplies are to be increased by thirty percent and yet in another decade they could be and whopping one hundred forty billion cubic meters per year that we need a quarter of europe's needs energy expert stephen solomon says austria coming on board is a major success. it's certainly a step forward without a doubt it's yet another consumer central and eastern europe that is interested in buying to get us through this new supply souls there are calls many other issues that have to be resolved austria starting up is just one of the things that have to happen there are many other issues for example that all carriers need to decide to

go to building the pipeline the pot and sell these to get exemption from what's called the e.u. package which basically means that gazprom if they build wife i don't have to allow other companies to use up hoffa capacity he said that the that they don't know all the companies that will hold you back off the fasti so they would have to last for exemption to be the only use of the five thousand coming in and for the viewer here and we'll bring you all the developments in the progress and political hurdles surrounding the south stream pipeline and am on line at or t. dot com. to be in the know. the u.k. is on alert after the government warned its expecting terror attacks a home by british radicals returning from fighting in syria and iraq officials say it's extremely difficult to track and monitor every single islamist who comes back one former top m i six chief claims it's completely impossible to look at every

the british prime minister as well as the home secretary taken hostage and beheaded david cameron himself has already warned that this with islamic state in iraq and isis are planning attacks on british soil and considering the fact that so there are various reports estimating that there are from two hundred fifty to five hundred persons in countries like syria experts say not only is the threats a larger than they think but also a good number all those people saying that it's really down to british intelligence not only to figure out who has returned but also who's playing the dead perhaps and what threat they pose. moscow has condemned last week's raid by the israeli defense forces in our t's office in the west bank the russian foreign ministry says such actions against journalists are unacceptable whatever they are motivated by and it's also called on the israeli army to give back property of confiscated during their rate. the assault was part of a crackdown on local media centers in

sanctions now this relates back to around thirty billion dollars worth of trades that were done with countries such as iran cuba most of all that all appear on the sanctions list it's being discussed at the highest levels french president francois . warned of the potential fallout for the french and even the why did you repeat an economy if this company faces such a stiff fine barack obama has said well he isn't going to poke his nose into an ongoing investigation by the attorney general so he's not provided going to try and interfere in this case but with the french economy still. very wobbly best the pessimists are suggesting that this type of fine meted out on to france's biggest bank could be potentially catastrophic so we're waiting to see what deal. between the french bank and the u.s. banking regulators were expecting that decision at the beginning of july. now the

unprecedented size of the fine has left some wondering why a b.m.p. party bar should have to pay so much the biggest savva a penalty paid by banks so far was a fine of almost two billion dollars handed out to britain's h.s.b.c. but the french giant could eclipse that amount paying almost five times as much we as journalists robert harneys why france is facing such tough measures he thinks washington is actually punishing paris for refusing to cancel its contract to sell mistral warships to russia. my own conclusion i have no proof of this but my own conclusion is it's to do with the sale of warships to russia this is a sharp rap over the knuckles for the french government for insisting on continuing of the sale of the beast of all ships to russia i look at the sequence of events and i draw their conclusions it just goes to show that it's a very expensive defying. the bank has accepted it because they want to go on doing business in america but i think when people have time to think they're not going to

be very impressed by this behavior by the american government which is a sort of blackmail because basically the the system is you say well if you don't plead guilty don't be a trial if you plead guilty you give us a load of money and that see it seems that european politicians are capable of swallowing any humiliation from the americans a u.s. court has released a long secret memo in which the obama administration lays out its legal reasoning for killing an american citizen without due process of law the document of course has left questions unanswered abby martin raises them in breaking the set but you may remember that back in two thousand and eleven u.s. citizen and we're all walking in the bin laden of the internet was killed by u.s. drone strike in yemen for his association with al qaeda now a lock is one of four u.s. nationals that have been killed by their own country's predator drones and for nearly three years the a.c.l.u. has demanded to know the justification behind it's killing and today. there it is

asian got its wish to federal court released a two thousand and ten amendment by ben acting assistant attorney general david baron but it outlined the legal case for the strike that killed a lockheed unsurprisingly the obama administration memo relies almost entirely on the authorization for use of military force a broadly worded law passed in the immediate wake of september eleventh that allows the president to use force against members of al-qaeda but even the memo notes that quote there is no precedent directly addressing the question in circumstances such as those present here but hey laws are meant to be broken even if it means completely dismantling over three hundred years of habeas corpus. up next many young people are failing to find financial security even after graduating from college and eight explains why and boom bust right after the break .

some people say freedom isn't free and they're right in fact freedom it only costs the price of a bottle of water or an old t. shirt fans celebrating the recent victory of the l.a. kings noticed that they were not alone what was believed to be a police troll was flying over them filming them either out of moral contempt for drones or just for the hell of it the crowd began to throw random objects out until it was brought down i think this event makes two very big points firstly a lot of the surveillance state is not that hard to stop i mean there are satellite photos being taken of us all the time and n.s.a. spying on our communications but any camera or other device been throwing distance of a brick is at the mercy of us don't you don't percent and secondly generally if a crowd of people does something few ever get punished i mean if this drug was.

shipley's drawled when they try to lock up the entire crowd for breaking it no they wouldn't and they couldn't for some reason if one person commits an act of civil disobedience they are in for it but if a crowd does that they generally get away with it so if you're going to defend your right to privacy from drones bring fifty guys with you and everything will work out just fine but that's just my opinion. please. please. please. please please please.
