close kevin owen here at r.t. tonight with the big news stories of the past seven days and first egypt's opposition is calling for more protests after president morsi insisted on planning ahead with a referendum on the new constitution which is viewed by many as discriminatory even his decision to scrap the decree which had granted him almost absolute power was dismissed as a play on words journalist trues in cairo for us she says his unexpected u. turn has failed to east tension. it does come as a bit of a surprise at the moment as people who are really thinking of the president wouldn't move on his stance against the opposition forces demands yesterday and today they had a meeting which was dubbed the national dialogue meeting between political party leaders the president and his cabinet notably some of the key opposition forces that form the national salvation front that are behind the protests and sit ins in the last few weeks not present the results of the controversial decoration would be revoked which of course is president morsi sweeping powers which is part of one of

the demands of the opposition forces and widely seen as a good move however they are rendered on the constitution which the opposition forces see to be illegitimate as it was drafted by islamist. constituent somebody would go ahead on the fifteenth and this is by the problem lies the opposition forces i replied yesterday saying that the results of the beating were meaningless as the president doesn't seem to move forward with that demand against this referendum. that it was really just another form of deception this comes off the minute she stepped up security around the presidential palace in the last two days that you see the statement yesterday saying that they were calling for dialogue and this was the only way to get the nation out of its crisis implying that perhaps they were willing to take a role in the ongoing situation in egypt we've seen quite a lot of violence on the streets since this one second of november when the conscious of the decree was announced by the president as rival groups have maton clashed which is led to the deaths of at least seven people on wednesday we have

yet to see really what will happen in the in the coming future the president keeps by this referendum and i'm sure that the opposition forces won't move to really even though we had this development yesterday at this meeting they're still looking at a divided egypt's political deadlock. middle east history professor lawrence davidson says there's no chance morsi will cancel a referendum that without dialogue situation i spiral into civil war if there was later the vote goes even more sure forces a constitution passed. and i think the opposition knows that he can do that there are four words they want to stop that but i do want to protest there is a leadership that was once here is that they want to start the process all over again from syria so actually they want to see new elections maybe one new orleans and. new constitution so what are you going to do if you are trying to kick

them out of power if you try to change the match. you release a civil war you risk we're going the islamist into the streets as long as population in general. i don't think we're. so we're it's a very very dangerous that you shouldn't judge the good high winds which she asked how do you. use what is on the books the media but morsi is willing to make some concessions right you're going to have to get up. or so it's not going to work. syria's rebel forces have joined forces on the one military command which they hope will unite diverse groups in the west and back struggle against president assad this last week the international community again voiced fears that the syrian government could deploy chemical weapons to defeat

opposition fighters something damascus continues to deny this is you can assess is know whether the chemical arsenal is a real threat or a pretext for intervention. u.s. officials said intelligence agencies have detected that assad's government has been preparing its chemical weapons stockpiles what possible use the obama administration's message to syria the us is ready to act if you make the tragic mistake of using these weapons there will be consequences and you will be held accountable there will be consequences. there will be consequences we have sent a unmistakable message that this would cross a red line next how does america the media quickly picked up on the alarming news of the syrian government's alleged plans citing secret intelligence for fox news confirms that syrian troops now have the deadly nerve agent sarin gas weaponized and at the ready the syrian government flatly denied the possibility saying it

would not use such weapons against its people. we would not commit suicide we feel there's a conspiracy to provide a pretext for any subsequent interventions in syria by these countries they're doing creasing pressure on syria the syrian government sure knows that if they use chemical weapons it would give nato and some of their arab neighbors who are itching to intervene in syria the green light to go ahead with their plans the meskins itself says it would be suicidal for them to do so but with the fear and the hype building up over the use of chemical weapons against civilians in syria it seems the us might be preparing grounds to jump the gun on this one the jumping the gun scenario is not new for the us almost twenty years ago the bush administration confidently presented false evidence to invade iraq we have an descriptions of biological weapons factories on wheels and on rails in beijing triggered a civil war that killed more than one hundred thousand innocent iraqis and years

later all washington had to say about this was the president thought it was correct congress thought it was of course i regret that it turned out a lot of it was wrong in the run up to the iraq invasion to us media was instrumental in selling the case to the public the congress never had any proof ever present ever of weapons of mass destruction or came from tony blair to the bush and congress are right now that the us has drawn a red line on syria it has made it clear it's ready to take action but how i'm not going to telegraph in any specifics what we would do in the event of. a credible evidence that the assad regime has resorted to using chemical weapons against their own people but suffice it to say we are certainly planning to. take action if that eventuality were to occur to american warships are

already near the syrian coast with some. in thousand u.s. marines and dozens of fighter jets on board on top of that nato is sending american german and dutch batteries of patriot anti-aircraft missiles to turkey's border with syria meaning hundreds more u.s. and european troops will be deployed to the frontier nato says deploying patriot missiles along syrian borders is a defensive step to prevent syria from attacking turkey i don't think there's any requirement whatsoever for patriot batteries on the ground in turkey again the patriot missiles are designed to really protect primarily against incoming fire ballistic missiles or aircraft the syrians are not going to attack the turks the turks are the most powerful military establishment in the region the largest army in nato and intervention in syria will be as bad if not worse than what we experienced in iraq the pentagon said they would need seventy five thousand troops to secure syria's weapons of mass destruction the question on everyone's mind is

are they seriously considering that kind of a mess of intervention because that could mean another you rock coming soon and the invasion that could be followed by years of bloody civil war in washington i'm going to check on business consultant crystal horses western concerns of a serious possible use of chemical weapons and nothing more than war propaganda. what syria is certainly doing is trying to make sure that no foreign agent how well equipped ever can you know get into the position of these weapons that is the main concern of the syrian government of course they're not planning to use it against foreign enemies in their territories no way and all these things are i think kind of invention of foreign and western propaganda many people here do not trust the parliament they do not trust the government and they do not trust the media and what we have here is you know eighty percent were against the afghanistan

issue and we sent our troops against them which then we you know paying into the bankrupt euro currency aid to get again against eighty percent of the wishes of the people and now we're sending these patriot systems our chancellor mrs merkel is obviously preparing for a battle about power in germany next year it's the election campaign which is starting internationally by over fulfilling and prematurely fulfilling washington's wishes by sending a patriot system or two of these bettery to turkey which is completely against the will of the people. british police are probing the death of a split later we hear how the hype could be. said that. the newly pregnant. also took a break. to liberate palestinian lands inch by inch now as israel uses.

construction. you can tell an ordinary russian. in the blink of an. anthropologist. those days siberians were different clothes different food. different animals. but what about. my journey began in two men but the big city was all shiny skyscrapers and shopping malls much like any other prosperous russian. so i decided to try. a small town just outside. dumplings came from here to dominate the russian cuisine but only in siberia.

filled with cabbage and making sure you can have as a starter main dish. although it may draw. most people in siberia see nothing wrong with hunting only if you decide to participate. when you look upon martin. as in the middle of a swamp. only accessible by air transport in the summer months and winter a path is clear blue dogs it's inhabited by so bear in a large muslim minority that migrated here before the russians.

this. is real siberia maybe not the stuff of tourist brochures but distinctive enough to show that after all these years cyber is still not quite like anywhere else. hello again thanks for being with r.t. guys this is a mass leadership's vowed to keep fighting until the israeli occupation is over as hundreds of thousands of supporters turned up to celebrate the militant group's twenty fifth anniversary it comes amid a turbulent time for the region and israel's of course refused to end the settlement expansion which has been denounced by the international community let's talk now to israeli journalist give you leave he's joining us on the line gideon good evening to you thanks for being with us in tel aviv how much his political leader insistently that he won't recognize israel is this really any way forward do

you think for negotiations as you see it. israel sees it differently i see the different. speech of mr musharraf as i was rather extreme and did not leave much room for negotiations but i truly believe that hamas will be a challenge to try to talk even to hamas even though he's. speech was really. the traditional old if you will of hamas which has no intention to recognize the state of israel which wants to liberate palestine from the jaw from the river to the sea is he mentioned this new so very very little room for negotiations but you know that variations in the really big rally is one thing i mean the courageous in

a big rally is one thing and getting into negotiations can lead to somewhere. the palestinian president mahmoud abbas treading very carefully right now or if he refrained from criticizing amasses actions because he's striving for unity with the mass is it possible for him to actually bridge that gap. the question should be raised to both parties to hamas and to fire till now all the efforts really failed i think it's a fatal mistake for the palestinian cause the palestinian are so divided about at least the rhetorical the last days sounds a little more promising and there is a chance for unification reunification but there were still very low. look at the israeli side of it and it's apparent that the only thing that's really changed so far since the u.n. general assembly upgraded palestine is israel's decision to expand its settlements

which has been widely condemned israel concerned about its apparent growing isolation. not enough. is. who is israel if it's the israeli public opinion it doesn't seem to be. very troubled by the un resolution and by the fact that israel saw isolated there and also about the government as long as the united states continues to support and to becky's. the concern is less big europe the state in the last vote in the un but steve israel feels that europeans are supporting basically supporting israel can they count on the same level of u.s. support in the future israel. that's an open question it's. a very promising american president

who disappointed many in this part of the world in his first but maybe the second term will look look like the first and maybe president obama will go for really courageous. historical steps in the middle east but this is still to be proved or i getting things to be on the line gideon levy the israeli since your thoughts. but surely export tons of fruit and vegetables cosmetics and other goods to the e.u. every year but despite being labeled as made in israel some of those don't exactly originate from there indeed many are produced in settlements considered illegal under international law and now there are calls to ban these type of exports or at least in for some more accurate labeling is artie's paper all of. produce of israel except this isn't israel this is the jordan valley in the west bank and this

farm is deemed illegal under international law the european union imports around three hundred million dollars worth of products from here each year now a group of twenty two n.g.o.s from across europe is looking to highlight the issue and has published a report in which it claims imports make the settlements viable because they are produced in illegal settlements which are contrary to international humanitarian law should be banned out of the european union now if this is not possible at least the consumers have to have the possibility to. to decide for themselves if they want to buy products which have been produced in legal settlements you'll see farmers this land is much concerned by the thoughts of european n.g.o.s he says he's here because his government told him it was ok to be here. because i was told he. saw a circle where i was told they could get more the state of israel told me time to

go go i'm told i'm an occupier when i go to i was nothing. in denmark and the united kingdom goods coming from settlements in the west bank already has to be marked differently to denote that it's not from israel the collective n.g.o.s want to see this implemented europe wide here in europe there are many people with ties to the middle east region and they want to make sure they know exactly where their produce is coming from that is are you sure this comes from spain. is a palestinian living in germany she has family in the west bank and says the israeli checkpoints mean palestinian farmers are losing out to the settlers even even the few think they get jordan. israel checkpoints keep them at the checkpoints for days and. the sun. and then you can't leave the rest of us anymore those behind the report into trade between the settlements in europe say the on trying to

organize any kind of witch hunt we're not talking about boycotting jews over here we're not talking about even boycotting israel itself we're talking about making a difference differentiating between. neagle israeli products which should be watched by european citizens as much the course the short and second and products which are totally illegal and should be banned and people should not buy. our t. berlin. online today there's international role reversal going on with a warning over nuclear aggression this time it's a rare sound the alarm against the united states over atomic tests in nevada with washington d.c. double standards and snubbing the nuclear watchdog a report of more depth online also what we have here well you're looking at the new miss sadie's benedict the sixteenth the approach taken delivery of his new high tech eco friendly wheels clinger throne a comfortable cruising above the. british police are investigating the death

of a nurse who apparently committed suicide after answering a prank call about the pregnant duchess of cambridge news of the nurses death added fuel to the fire as media excitement over the role baby reached fever pitch in the week is artie's polly boy here in london. all this taking place against a backdrop of intense media speculation and a real media circus the whole pos week over news that kate middleton is pregnant we've seen discussions about whether or not kate could be having twins if kate has twins which of the babies potential babies would be the ones succeeding to the throne if it was if they were delivered by c. section it would be the physician potentially deciding it is the successor to the british want to key we've seen bookmakers taking bets on what this baby might be called predictions that this will already be the most popular name in britain as

soon as the name is announced and you know all this is taking place when there are other events taking place in the world still a crisis in syria protests in egypt it's all taking place against this backdrop and a lot of people saying that this media coverage of kate's pregnancy has really been rather disproportionate especially with this tragic twist that has now ensued now i'm joined by course cuse a a long time journalist he's been following the story cause a tragic wake up call to the grocery here. it certainly should be. a very very tragic circumstance under which are still under investigation the real issue is of course the media which blew this up out of proportion i believe the daily mail when a student a story broke the daily mail devoted fourteen put its first fourteen or thirteen pages of the newspaper one of the most read newspapers in the country to the royal baby we've just had the leveson inquiry a damning report about the state of the british media and now this you know is this

more criticism for the british media in the way it's following these stories while there is other news taking place and internationally well again it should be but it isn't because the media is trying to deflect attention away and is calling for the hanging of the two great radio deejays the media. it's not questioning the amount of coverage they are devoting to your family and what consequences this may have an individual's life if we had a media which was more reasonable just when that happens if the suicides actually prove to be related to what happened but they have it now the juke and duchess of cambridge have said that deeply saddened by the news the tragic news of this the death of the royal not so what should have been a joy for the pregnancy announcement has been some say because of the disproportionate media coverage chimed in to a very tragic news story. big stories making headlines right now this venezuelan

president hugo chavez has spoken publicly first time about his successor after announcing he's suffering from cancer again the leaders to return to cuba for further treatment in surgery in the coming days during a speech on state t.v. named vice president nicolas maduro as his replacement should anything happen to him news comes just two months after a child this week reelected with a tight vote. police ruling party activists have clashed with protesters in the bangladeshi capital dhaka at least two people were killed nearly two hundred injured there but the authorities fired rubber bullets and tear gas to disperse the crowds protesters blocked roads and torched vehicles demanding constitutional changes ahead of next year's election. most careers saying now it may perceive only a controversial rocket test that show jewel for later this month has given no official reason for the delay but it's thought to be because of heavy snow around the launch site the secluded state insists it's only launching a satellite but the u.s. japan and south korea are among those who think it's really conducting

a ballistic missile test tokyo is threatening to shoot down the rocket if it poses a threat. data stored on the internet in europe can be obtained by united states authorities despite protection laws that's according to dutch legal experts who issued a paper on cloud computing in it they claim the anti terror patriot act allows the us access to private data while the authors of the report told us international privacy laws need to be reviewed. normally in an offline world you would have cooperation between governments that would respect international human rights standards but as these companies in the cloud are. conducting systematic best business and united states direct access warms all over the world internet surveillance is increasing and it's quite breakneck speed so a solution would be. to at least try and come to some international standard of how

to resolve all this and what does privacy mean i know that this is a very ambitious goal but as we all move into the internet and as we all as it all becomes a part of our daily lives free speech and privacy online is becoming ever more important. can we have all this channel we traveled to the nevada desert next to learn about the famous burning man festival there are some like program an outtake from a scam. the
