live from the r t eight pm a humanitarian ceasefire collapses in gaza just a couple of hours after it was declared israel launching new strikes which played the lies of up to thirty more palestinians we hear what it's like to be caught in the hail of. contradictory images from ukraine shoki had falsified evidence of weapons facilities close to the crash site of flight m.h. seventy. u.s. small sending its largest of a shipment of hellfire missiles to help the iraqi government which has lost control of the vast oil fields to do you know how this. america's n.s.a.

to protect its own most sensitive data specifically its former directors salary activists accuse of making money other states. good evening good to have you with us the first than the three day humanitarian cease fire between israel and hamas has collapsed barely two hours after it began israeli launched strikes killing up to thirty palestinians in the first few hours since the truce was proclaimed independent journalist bell true came under fire she contacted us to describe what happened. my job down south. community called it as we are rights that had already started there was a heavy bombardment of china in fire coming from israel in gaza in that area

meanwhile families had trying to access times to pull out corpses that have been rotting back to several days the stench is unbearable there are also rotten animals that have been laid just on the roads which could cause a problem in the future in terms of disease the situation here is become almost bearable meanwhile we have a potential crisis here fuel crisis which is affecting electricity delivery of water and sewage and that's really the next drama on the horizon here people in gaza because the hospitals are going to be running out of electricity in the next four to five days and meanwhile as i said the sewage problem is going to become a humanitarian disaster disease spreading through these very crowded communities so really not only are the gazan people on attack at the moment the same time they are facing possible disease. troubles in the future going to hospitals to treat them. the protective age offensive has become israel's bloodiest operation in recent

years now with more than fourteen hundred palestinians killed as well as sixty three israelis that number even exceeds the casualties from the tories cost led operation that took place at the end of two thousand and eight the current conflict saying social media used to the mix to giving a platform for palestinians to report on what's going on near their homes for instance meet for a break or a palestinian teenager who's already in jude three israeli offensive on twitter she's been sharing the nightmares which have become a daily reality for she's gained thousands of followers and the posts have been picked up by world media we might just need to a father who is a surgeon of the gaza hospital he told us the horrors he sees work. this is not or this is a massacre out of order as something is the perfect between two equal or almost equal forces people come with severe injuries with diminished bodies torn apart to be and we saw in many many cases with the with the severe injuries but what i love makes you say very sad when you see. who's lost his mother as a brother as

a brother is his body is disabled he can live but will live with this the whole take away with him i don't i don't imagine. that amidst think the this thing to continue i have a friend over last to be free but others. in totality of his funds i mean he just will. bring more spend he came and rockets were to diminish his house totally for its part israel squarely blames the civilian casualties on how mass saying it's using garzon citizens as human shields for hershon from israel's foreign ministry says the government is doing everything possible to limit the deaths we're doing everything we possibly can to try to limit and to to to restrict the civilian casualties in very difficult circumstances you this is precisely the reason why we did not want to be in this

conflict in the first place we said so repeatedly loud and clear we also did through through quietly through the diplomatic channels the quiet would be answered with quiet it's a terrible terrible tragedy that's that's unfolding it before our eyes the responsibility for which lies dying at the doorstep of hamas who are deliberately locating themselves in civilian neighborhoods in order to draw fire and they have abused the palestinian people and will be judged very badly by by history for that . the latest scars of conflict is dividing the world in paris two demonstrations took place at the same time one supporting the israeli operation the second one sided with the palestinians the french capital is just one of several major european cities that have seen numerous pro israeli and pro palestinian rallies since the escalation began. the latest ukrainian army air raid on the gas has killed at least five people heading to the

dozens of victims now for the past few days it's going to net score the two largest cities in the east and currently the centers of anti-government resistance both are being blockaded by kiev which is struggling to take control over the region still gabs has been left without power while food and water are rapidly running out and there's no letup for civilians from the heavy daily artillery shelling a bombing exhausted from living in a war zone residents say they just want peace oh. oh. oh. oh. oh yes yes just. this is also this is what. we start to walk around you know the yak you see we never i mean we do that what do you would be we're not only what she said sure that we would. have valued more. and it was confirmed ukraine's been using short range ballistic missiles against self defense forces in the east according to

a report by the german news channel. the same was said two days ago on c.n.n. which referred to its sources in the pentagon denies any use of ballistic missiles in the east of ukraine such missiles are able to carry much larger payloads to or even deliver several warheads deep into enemy lines. e.u. sanctions to punish russia's financial energy and defense sectors over the events in ukraine of kicked in european lawmakers have made it nearly impossible for the companies on the list to seek funding or shop for technologies in europe peter all of us got the latest the full details have now come out about what the latest round of sanctions entailed what we're looking at is its targets three main sectors of the russian economy now in terms of the banking sector we've seen sanctions slapped on five of russia's biggest banks including the biggest spur bank which will stop them from being able to sell bonds to european investors with regards to the

energy sector what we're going to see is anybody who wants to provide equipment technology towards russia. we're looking at things like the continued exploration for oil in the arctic that could be affected by this and when it comes to defense well there is a ban on imports and exports of arms into russia however that isn't retroactive nor of these are any deals that have gone on in the past any deals that have been agreed they'll all be fine and be allowed to progress but they that's basically the brass tacks of what of what these latest sanctions intel. european and u.s. businesses are particularly happy with the way politicians are trying to solve the ukrainian crisis the c.e.o. of the world's largest chemical company b.s.f. in germany has doubts about the efficiency of sanctions that the executive right vice president of the u.s. chamber of commerce said. concerned that the measures could have a boomerang effect the president of the association of italian businesses in russia

meantime told us that sanctions come at a price for those imposing them. the turnover between europe and russia is around five hundred billion dollars the united states and the us military shoes ten times less italy is the second. country in terms of the normal russian federation and the second investor so we have more than fifty years of friendly relation with russia we cannot destroy and let me say i don't think that they think that the first section would be hundreds of billions of dollars on the on the russian leadership i think that that the impact could be mainly on their hunger for me to open doors for billions of dollars for beyond the european union economy that's for sure. the latest punitive measures heaped on russia follow the downing of malaysian flight m.h. seventeen a fortnight ago now it is still unclear exactly what caused the plane to crash killing all two hundred ninety eight aboard russia was first to provide some

evidence of what may have happened releasing satellite images purporting to show the deployment of ukrainian anti-aircraft batteries around the crash site but play the images were fabricated to release their own photos russia's defense ministry now says kiev's evidence is fake. or explains why. well actually to put it bluntly they're saying that everything that ukraine has presented as evidence is to put it simply is a lie and here is why first of all we're looking at a group of images that show different time and date why they were presented as evidence by ukraine is completely clear secondly there is a group of images which bears a date that was falsified and that could be proven by detailed analysis of weather conditions on that particular location on that date finally there is a third cover of images which according to ministry of defense show that they have been doctored or altered to digitally obviously played with by the ukrainian side on top of that ukrainians have alleged that they have images which supposedly show

the movement of russia's military machinery across the border and now minister of defense says that the quality of images does not really allowed to make that statement first of all they do not have a date stamp or it is impossible to say where and when those images were taken because they do not have the geographical coordinates on them none of the images show a road that crosses the border there for interviews and substantiated claims that the tracks were made by russian military simply did not hold up to scrutiny on top of that the image quality is really poor and therefore it is impossible to say whether those tire tracks are indeed from a military vehicle and not for example from something else and of course it is even less impossible to say that those vehicles actually do belong to russia there by the ministry of defense says that all of it is that was presented by ukraine simply does not bear up to scrutiny. coming up of supplying a rugby league with heavy weapons we cope with a lot more to after this break. crosstalk

rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want. as a media leader so we leave that maybe. by the same motions your. party physical

. issues that no one is asking with to get that you deserve answers from. politic only that are. the u.s. is planning its largest have a shipment of health missiles to iraq which is locked in desperate fighting with al qaeda linked militants the missiles which be able to inflict huge destruction come with a significant price tag hundred thousand dollars the move comes as radicals have already snatched large swathes of land to the northwest of the country and declared an islamic caliphate on the occupied territories they control rich regions and their well trained troops s'posed a significant threat to the iraqi army and this is it should i could annex than explaining the dangers of america's exports. a record size shipment of hellfire

missiles to the iraqi government from the us is in the works the u.s. state department is reported to have approved and the pentagon is in the process of preparing to send over five thousand a.g.m. one fourteen type and our missiles and related parts to iraq the cost of this deal is estimated at a whopping seven hundred million dollars american aerospace giant lockheed martin is the prime contractor for the production and supply of these hellfire missiles this comes as the iraqi government continues the fight against isis the islamist militants al qaeda affiliated group who have been raging in the west and north of the country we were up military is reported to have used up about three hundred hellfire missiles this june and a previous delivery of an additional eight hundred missiles had already been approved to be sent over so this latest large planned shipment is in addition to the missiles that had already been sent over by the u.s. according to a pentagon press release on this issue the missile directly supports the government of iraq and serves the interests of the people of iraq and the united states it

also says that iraq will use the hellfire missile to help improve iraq's security forces capability to support current ongoing ground operations we now know human rights groups have been critical of the use of missiles since they have reportedly been fired at residential neighborhoods and cities where isis has been present specifically human rights watch has called on the u.s. to not send weapons to iraq until baghdad acts in accordance with international law and r.t.e. . however the american initiative to supply the right with such powerful weapons may bring about even more problems in the past the militants have already maneuvered the seizing dozens of u.s. supplied i would says they also voted for frozen machine guns to their arsenal plus fifteen hundred humvees. so it's a real fear and the missiles could end up in the hands of the extremists to to his brother who thinks that. they're the ones who will benefit most from the shipment of the day. it's five thousand missiles these are important unishe ans they could

be have a devastating impact on the battlefield it's good for us arms manufacturers and puts the us back in a position of perhaps a strategic significance or in competition with iran with the central government in iraq will it change the equation a bit of that back and look at what's really happened since two thousand and three the united states because of its military intervention in iraq fractured the country and fractured it along ethno sectarian lines of finance shiite militias that playing at sunni militias that financed the kurds us as a matter of policy for three years has funneled arms and weapons are to arm the so-called islamic extremists in syria and have now back should serious the u.s. is trying to get back into iraq to have a decisive impact but it's a divide and rule in strategy that we've seen unfold in both syria and in iraq the beheading of a filipino construction work here the gang rape of nurses led the philippines to

twenty levon when the foreman john maria there is no national government there is no national army or national police force it's plain for all to see that the nato project failed but that's to assume that nato attended to bring any type of stability to libya they haven't made to put you in this mess i'm going to remain putting you in this mess at such as the lawlessness in libya that libyan oil production is not even a third of what it was in the foreseeable future it looks highly unlikely they'll be any stability let alone democracy in libya. russia's popular blog is not a need to watch their own line language a controversial new laws come into effect we'll tell you about on our web site so you don't comb through and read up more and to gauge the implications also to how far would you go to get your hands on how it was seems adults are in the u.k. allegedly exchanged human body parts for a bottle of whiskey. right.

and allies around the world the man who spearheaded the indiscriminate spy programs remains protected and profitable. r.t. new york. and the n.s.a. is also notably absent from the stage of what's arguably the world's largest computer security convention secure to search a cost of the n.s.a. come to figure out its own main objectives. appearance of the celtics and conference last year was very well remembered as their only talent out of bridge the gap between what they are doing in computer security and what everybody publicly saying stay should be doing and out of town twas a complete failure we stand for freedom. not their. stocks. why not why. not i haven't lied to congress and they seem to have

a symbol of resistance all the stuff you and i met. not. so who are they they are ordinary women mostly aged between forty five and sixty who claim the tax offices the ministry of finance and customs service up until september last year when the ministerial decree so hundreds of them suspended and later fired. by many who went bad with the job and work without suddenly our lives were destroyed we had two options to cry over decisions that were made for us we'll stand up and fight these women staged protests and occasionally block the entrance of the finance ministry demanding the government stop ruining lives with their austerity measures recently these demonstrations turned filings with some of them and then up in the hospital accusing riot police of beating them up. in the cinema said by the police didn't want us there and they started pushing us

of run with the shields the twisted my arm and they took my friend and shot and the police car even amnesty international accused local cops of abusing their powers and violating human rights but little has been done to bring those responsible to justice. this policy is part of the austerity measures agreed upon with our lenders our country can house six hundred seventy thousand public servants this will help our private sector which has been battered so many businesses have shut down and over one million private sector workers were made redundant sooner or later hundreds of thousands will have to depart from the public sector but that will create work for private business. this is where the cleaners are camped out every single day reminding the government that they're not going anywhere and informing the public of what they see as a great injustice the greek supreme court seemed to agree with them at one point ordering the finance minister to rehire them only to have that woman overturned but it's not over yet. these women now prepared to go back to court this september.

some experts claim that even if these women managed to get their jobs back they will never enjoy the same salaries or benefits as they did before but at this point the only thing these women care about is reclaiming their rights even if that means spending more months protesting merino call survive reports in from athens forty. it's a twenty six an evening here in moscow thanks to choosing an international is it time for a team they will larry king's latest guest knows all about the movement which is proving to be rather a headache for the u.s. government at the moment we're covering that after the break that. sometimes i am baffled by the closed little world that

a lot of people in the mainstream media must live in they seem shocked and appalled at the fact that around forty percent of the weapons supplied to afghanistan have gone missing let's ignore the fact that while americans are going broke the u.s. must rebuild the afghan military and think for just a second what would happen if you set a lot of weapons into a country in dire economic suffering i'm sure you've heard reports that say that afghan farmers could only make a living off of poppy crops because they just have no other resort so if you throw a bunch of guns and ammo into the hands of people who have the career choices of poppies or starvation yeah that someone might be willing to sell some bullets to get by also we shouldn't forget that every government on earth has people in it working for their old self interests or others interests it is totally naive to think that every person involved in the process of transferring weapons will be loyal to the afghan government which seems to have been put in place by a certain hyper power who remain nameless in short if you find this story shocking then you really need to get off the couch and see how the world really works but

that's just my opinion. crosstalk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want. money's huge impact on american politics can democracy survive special interest

campaign spending we're going to take a look at that on this edition of politicking. the politicking on larry king and on today's show a scare nominated filmmaker called deal his new documentary is citizen koch it investigates the money behind the tea party traces the impact of unlimited election spending by corporations and billionaires it's a controversial look at private donors version's the voting public and call joins us from new york what was the impetus for citizen cold call. well you know larry yeah i guess after president obama was elected one thing they.
