1:08 am
same onslaught a many bus was apparently hit though it's unclear whether by gunfire or by shelling four more people died then. and another military bear are sure to cancel hospital in lugansk killing one woman and doing as you can see considerable damage. when anti-government fighters have now abandon the series of surveillance camera toss they've pulled back further east towards the regional capital done yet but found to continue their resistance the constant shelling air raids and attacks have devastated civilian life tens of thousands of chosen to flee the war zone but they won't or can't or having to adapt. while you do have these three you must remember why do you. want if you really bust the least you could just leave it at the top of the. markets but it will hurt them will regard another group with the quilt
1:09 am
remember them a good look them up for it she was sure because it would be a little closer because ruby your absolute image of prison is going up which is what was because i'm so stupid you. sure. sure most. of us. as you probably realize we have been chronicling the events of the last week before in detail on the web site we have at r.t. dot com where you can find much more video some graphic of the events in the east. and other news radical militants from the group known as the islamic state have boosted their finances by seizing an oil field in syria in addition to other resource rich sites they've already captured in iraq the jihad is have made gains in both countries this week all for one goal to secure a so-called islamic caliphate on the captured territories it also it is also
1:10 am
alleged the secretive leader the terrorist appeared on video for the first time apparently to shatter the claims of the iraqi government he had been wounded. in a different show of force the militants were reportedly caught on tape parading tanks and other combat vehicles in eastern syria all this comes hot on the heels of washington releasing half a billion dollars in military support to the syrian opposition which raised fears some of the money will fall into the hands of extremists investigative journalist matt carr says america helped bring about isis in the first place i say this is not just the ocean of the syria or isis has its origins in iraq itself in the jihad its resistance to the u.s. occupation when they would do have troops in iraq after the so-called surge there was a view that. one of those groups have been defeated or at least neutralized that probably never really happened and isis has been an hour to iraq not just because of what in syria but also by the incompetence of terrorism and corruption at the amole
1:11 am
government in iraq so all these different forces of close situation which is very probable that some iraq could fragment into three. because i can't see the moment of the time being any kind of and sectarian movement that could overcome the division but it is up to shreds. some rebel factions in syria have already pledged allegiance to what's now been named the islamic state by militants let's have a look at how much land the group already has under its control and this black area here on the map is the so-called islamic state you can see that heart of the border between iraq and syria has been wiped out by the militants are still claims that it can defeat the terrorists there and reclaim these territories. explains why that could prove to be very tough the hardest formally known as isis this week to clear the completion of their islamic state this. but now this is
1:12 am
old daughter of one country there is no more or less. the iraqi army meanwhile is fighting back in televised news briefings the government takes a victorious tone. from the information that the ice is looters have started to flee but on the ground we've found little evidence to back up those claims this used to be a territory controlled by the central government but the iraqi army full of this area the same day that the city of mosul was captured by isis millions of dollars of u.s. made equipment abandoned uniforms shared in case. now this looks like. a hat a breakout from the special forces iraqi special forces this is obviously a vest that they discarded left behind they dressed in civilian clothes ran away essentially abandoned their posts and that's how in part isis has been able to see
1:13 am
it so much territory so quickly the fighting has displaced hundreds of thousands of iraqis that many are scarred by the two thousand and three invasion and describe a sense of deja vu with the current crisis again from two thousand and three it's coming back so it's a disaster actually things are getting worse why. determined to stand first hand how this war was playing out were underway right now at one of the front lines the village of the mob up until about five days ago when isis insurgents completely controlled that entire territory it would stand on a strategic road from mosul the next several of the provinces and so they really wanted answers to a benchmark lost soldiers not been able to clear bits of it but they're still clashes ongoing and that's what we're having right now. at the base commanders take us to an outpost overlooking an area controlled by militants this is the very first defensive position against the isis militants just two kilometers that way every
1:14 am
single day there's been sniper fire attempts by the jihad is to enter this territory if they can push through the defensive position they would potentially take care coop and move into the territories and that could be a massive battle just waiting to happen moments later we have to leave and we just got word that the isis just might be moving forward so all the soldiers have been told to evacuate this area we're going to get out before things get intense we know that there was clashes last night and we don't want to be here if that were once again it was apparent just how fluid a conflict this was the frontlines change daily and no matter what military gains each day he may bring if the iraqi civilians who lose as the war rages on to see catherine opar on t.v. cuckoo problems in iraq well some experts believe the state's offensive is being orchestrated from abroad two states which are involved in the isis approaching this is on the one hand we've said already saudi arabia but on the other hand as well
1:15 am
there is turkey we have saudi arabia is a country which is very much engaged in europe saudi arabia is doing a lot for radicalizing if you go for example to boston you will see brand new mosques financed by saudi arabian foundations and this is not a liberal and not a tolerant islam they are preaching. there this is nothing new what we're seeing in the region is the same aligned so forces arrayed against the people of the region that we saw since the second world war when when london and washington were allied particularly with the gulf monarchies in supporting the so-called muslim brotherhood and other much more violent sectarian forces in the region against those countries and states and leaderships which were actually delivering the land reform social reform distribution of wealth and the nonaligned pro global south or pro at the time quote quote unquote thought well policy we look at the volunteer attack in the middle east spot by the killing of a palestinian teenager in jerusalem that story be just that.
1:16 am
america's military might and its foreign policy exist separately from one another the us is a formidable military power but sadly its weak foreign policy was that is why i'm not inclined to suspect the obama administration of pursuing some secret plan directed against. this is the media leave us so we leave the media. by the same bush and secure the other your party physical. issues that no one is asking with the guests they deserve answers from. politic only on our team.
1:17 am
well again now autopsy results suggest the palestinian teenager abducted and killed in jerusalem this week was burned alive palestinians blamed his murder on a far right jewish settlers his death sparked fierce clashes across the nation with police in jerusalem using tear gas to disperse crowds. well it's also spread to some arab towns but stone throwing cried street says thought the teenager was murdered in revenge for the killing of three jewish teenagers which israel blames on her mouth israel arrested hundreds of palestinians
1:18 am
and raided of homes while trying to find no mass is offering to hold its rocket attacks on israel if television stop shelling gaza. i don't think that the killing of the palestinian teenager also sparked public outrage in the u.k. two scores of people gathered outside the israeli embassy in london to show their anger at what they say are rising levels of racism and violence they cried shouted slogans calling on israel to stop attacks on palestinians we discuss the crisis with two political experts one from garza the other from telephone. of killing three teenagers in in bank city of here problem this does not justify it all the kidnapping more than five hundred palestinians most of them leaders of hamas in the west bank airstrikes mightly pieces on the gaza strip is continuous this is overwhelming situation israel is the unfortunately the main bully in the
1:19 am
neighborhood but there is no way to stop those killings on both sides by making that the beautician the only way to blake this vicious suit is but sitting together and talking justly and fairly about a better future for everybody. now here ever used any of those internet services that hides your identity or maybe just google information about them if the answer is yes then you are a potential terrorist well at least that's the me eyes of america's national security agency just visiting the web site of the german based torn network for example which hides ip addresses puts you on the n.s.a.'s radar artie's peter all of it is him go in with the details. the tall project was created to allow people to surf the internet without having to give away their identity or allow with third party to look at what websites they were looking at well it turns out to service
1:20 am
here in germany and actually being tapped into by the n.s.a. what this means is although the n.s.a. can't see what you're looking at online they know that you are using the toll project and what they've said is if anybody uses the top project they go on a database and they are labeled extremists know to find out more about what this all means i'm joined by kurtz from the chaos computer club one of your service was one of those that was tapped into how many people in germany does this affect. there are a lot of people who are affected at least solomons because it's not only the users of the zone and in our mining services but also people whose search for terms like using those tools and it's also specific ip addresses that were targeted. now when you said it's just people if you even search for it now in preparing for this i clicked on the top project does not mean my name would have gone into this
1:21 am
database yes exactly it's also a journalist or academics who write about those two words or doing research about it and it's even one person who would try to have some information about does anonymizing services thank you very much there. from the chaos computer club one of the servers that was tapped into by the n.s.a. belong to organization just showing that even with the most the programs that are created to make you anonymous online the n.s.a. still finding ways to find out who you are and what you're doing despite the concerns you heard there from whistleblowers and those who help them keep their identities hidden think it would be impossible to reform the n.s.a. . we've seen for the revelations that they're literally spying on every country that they can with the exception of for. in my opinion the n.s.a. is a corrupt agency if i as an individual had undertaken the same actions i would be thrown
1:22 am
into prison for thirty years any attempt to reform in my opinion is like bailing out the ship that's already suck they did have a process that those limits what n.s.a. looks at and can take in and store in its database and you can take a look at the the storage facilities they're building you get an idea of how much they're taking in like a million square foot storage facility in bluffdale utah and other stories that they've had existing all along at fort meade as well as other facilities around the world. the fear of growing islamification in austria is seeing campaign is their push to ban the birth right wing is why women should be stopped from wearing full face veils in public r.t. dot com tells you why it also one line is plenty of toxic substances to be found in mexico city but one thing police didn't expect to find was a load of radioactive material online will tell you how it probably got there.
1:23 am
another crisis is looming for ukraine it's decreasing natural gas reserves has already resorted to tapping its long term storage tanks after russia cut off supplies over unpaid bills and this is creating unease in the new this is this as the blokes energy chief going to get here says a domino effect is inevitable even for europe's powerhouse germany the fear is that unless you crane starts filling up at storage facilities it may start siphoning gas destined for europe and that's warning has already been voiced by gazprom and echoing those concerns russia's prime minister believes ukraine's troubles could balloon into a full scale gas crisis as soon as the autumn to reach medvedev made these comments on his facebook page so why is there so much concern how about a wider gas crisis in europe well let's take a look at the map over here to get a better understanding of what is going on basically e.u.
1:24 am
countries receive gas from russia via multiple pipelines and the lion's share of these go right through ukraine moscow has stressed that the supplies will continue as before but if the fears over siphoning are realized europe won't get the gas it needs this winter as happened before in two thousand and six and two thousand and nine international energy experts say the e.u. could end up having to pay for kiev's their. if you are really are. all creating into issues who should be putting enormous pressure on the government to come to their senses if they can't pay their spiel even though they're being loaned the money to do so what will happen in the winter is that our european gas prices will go up as a result of that lack of russian gas heating europe when that happens all of the consumer feels in western europe as well i said to the energy minister michael farland that really we you know the end we will have to pay that gas bill either
1:25 am
ukrainians pay or we pay it one way or another now american media has revealed that the mystery group academia formerly known as blackwater threatened to kill government officials sent to investigate the firm during the u.s. campaign in iraq what's more special agents could do nothing a back to because of the company's power during the war even the american embassy in baghdad sided with the nurse race or facing investigation investigators the top manager of the guns for hire company said i quote that he could kill the agents and no one could or would do anything about it that's according to reports in the new york times the incident allegedly took place just weeks before one blackwater unit killed seventeen civilians in the iraqi capital well after the threat the u.s. state department agents tried to stay out of sight in iraq even refusing to eat out in public the mercenaries they reported behaved as if they were above the law former u.s.
1:26 am
state department official peter van buren told us everyone knew blackwater was out of control. the state department was so afraid of its mission in iraq being slowed down or delayed by replacing blackwater as a contractor that they were willing to accept almost any standards of behavior out of the company in order to continue the contract even though they understood it was detrimental to us aims blackwater was an organization out of control in iraq and we now have absolute proof that the state department who was supposed to control them knew that they were out of control knew that they were dangerous people knew that they were acting contrary to u.s. policy aims and did nothing over the years the group has been a key to doing america's dirty work is believed to have assisted the cia's drawing mission in pakistan the government paid out millions of dollars to the contractor in afghanistan and allowed it to have its own military bases and all this culminated in the prosecution of several blackwater employees for killing civilians
1:27 am
coming up next we've got the latest installment of news team hair and r.t. international but for our u.k. viewers we bring in the scandal over torture in u.s. controlled prisons. yes it's official the mainstream media must be made up of stereotypical gossipy teenage girls i mean how else can you explain the fact that michelle obama using the term chipped has become a scandal i don't white house summit on working families mrs obama explained that when she was working part time she realized she was getting gypped because she was actually king full time but only getting paid the part time salary technically the term gypped is somewhat racist it implies the gypsies are all con men but in the modern world i think most people don't even know where the term comes from i doubt
1:28 am
michelle obama likes a medieval peasant shield her children from wandering gypsies who could give them the evil eye i seriously question if there was any deep racial intent in the statement i personally would let the first lady off the hook but the question is would she do the same for me or any other person in the media probably not but thankfully for mrs obama she can't be fired from being the first lady only divorced or her husband's term ends now for me and every other person saying their opinion on camera we've got to be a lot more careful but that's just my opinion. rise
1:29 am
of the islamic state or isis in the middle east is said to reorder political realities in the region the west field colonial agenda for the arab world is coming to an end it would seem the arab spring has been replaced with a jihadi summer. i'm abby martin the stories we cover here not can here in iraq other big story the answer that life there's a reason they don't want to. raise that. now let's break the set.
