>> and now "bbc world news." >> this is bbc world news america." reporting from washington, i'm katty kay. we are inside with a look at a community that has been ripped to shreds. this is the scene that greets the turkish prime ministete he returns home. these are antigovernment for testers and they are not acting down. -- protesters and they are not acting down. today we spin back in time to look at this cultural icon. welcome to our viewers on public television in america and also around the globe. syrian government forces have been consolidating their hold on villages around the key town of qusair, which they seized from rebel fighters yesterday after a two-week offensive. the fighting reveals qusair's strategic importance. it is on a key route north from damascus and on the border with lebanon. journalist toern enter qusair returned there today. qusair is calm today. there is none of the edginess we saw in the immediate aftermath of battle. there is more traffic on the streets. but it is almost all soldiers, taking away what ever they can find what ever way they can. we saw almost no civilians in qusair, except this one family. they are not staying long. they left a year ago and came back to find their home was unrecognizable. it had been occupied by the rebels. the symbol of the free syrian army repaid. upstairs, they show me what the fighters left behind. clothes-hooks -- hanging on hooks. soldiers turn up. has the law and lebanese fighters working side-by-side. we spoke to has a lot off- camera -- we spoke to hezbollah off-camera. this is so close, you can see it from the edges of qusair. this is why the battles have been so fierce over the last 18 months. we saw some of the makeshift weapons the opposition was able to bring in. we are told by soldiers these barrels are packed with explosives. .hese men wave us down they want us to see other improvised devices. rebels call the freedom, this my and says -- this man says. before qusair plunged into war, this was a city where citizens of many believes live together. the church of saint elias was not just destroyed. it was desecrated. the physical destruction in qusair is immense and shocking. but something even more worrying has happened here. the social fabric has been ripped apart. is a matter ofir time. rebuilding trust -- that may never happen. bbc news, qusair. >> it may be impossible to rebuild trust anywhere in syria. the first western journalist allowed into qusair. the prime minister of turkey is returning home tonight and will be met by protesters who say they have no intention of leaving the streets. the demonstrators say they want an apology for police heavy handedness and they want mr. aragon to cancel his plans -- erdogan to cancel his plans for redeveloping a part of is temple. so, what now? i spoke to jeremy bowen in istanbul. jeremy, looking at the scenes of those protesters time to, it does not look like they will back down either. walking've been through the area. i have to say it is a good- natured atmosphere. sort of a party atmosphere. people selling snacks, meet, things like that. both sides appear to be digging in. erdogan is a practical politician. in the past he has executed u- turns. even the language used today, he is in no mood to do one on this issue. >> looking at the xers, it did look likee the kind of music festival my son likes to go to. you were into rear square before overthrowall -- the of mubarak. does it have that feel to it? >> there is no comparison because it is a very different system here in turkey. they have elections, democratic elections. turkey has moved a long way in the last 10, 20 years from where it was. however what the protesters say is what this country lacks is a proper free political culture. they feel the prime minister -- it is not about trees and the park behind me. it is about the way they live. the secular, quite well educated people who are in the main middle class, student types as well who are out there, believe the type of life they want is being put out of their reach. not just with social restrictions about selling beer, that kind of thing. also in terms of the economy. a new elite, a new middle class is growing, people who support mr. erdogan's party, and i think they are feeling left out. group.s such a dispapate is there something the prime minister can do fairly easily, fairly quickly that would make these protesters go home? that would and these demonstrations? --that would and these demonstrations? >> in a negotiation there is always a way to give the other side a way out. they dismissed the police chief in istanbul and ankara because of the violence used by the police and trying to snuff out the original protests. i wonder if they will get anything as big as that. they have to be given something, they say, or they won't go h he. maybe the prime minister is prepared to wait it out. ,o wait until it diminishes maybe just down to a hard-core and then he removes them with the right police. we will have to wait and see. turkey and the prime minister are in new territory because in his 10 years in office he has never faced the challenge of this nature. >> it will be interesting to see eventually.es it jeremy bowen there for us is temple. thank you. the duke of edinburg has been admitted to hospital for an exploratory operation. prince philip was admitted following abdominal investigations. he is expected to be in hospital for up to two weeks. kenyans georgia by british forces during the mau mau uprising are to seek compensation of 20 million pounds. almost 500 victims will receive payouts. the foreign secretary william hague said britain rejected the abuses. the white house is defending its policy of secretly collecting the telephone records of millions of verizon users on the grounds of national security. revelations that the -- revelations about the government program were reported and the british newspaper the guardian. after hearing about it in a congressional hearing, u.s. attorney general eric holder said he would not discuss the program in outlook. for more on the latest in this dustup, i spoke with my guest. what are they doing with these phone records? >> this is a system that turns in the background. we have to assume it is not just verizon, but all be carriers. assuming tons of metadata. the number of calls, the duration of calls. other information. if the fbi wants to access that, because of a personal number of concern, they can go to be five the court, put in an application, and put that phone nunuer into the system and see where it takes them. as a result of that, they can establish connections, networks that might be involved in some action of terrorism either from abroad or here in the united states. >> the administration is being pretty defiant saying, we need to do this. you think americans will see it that way? bigill they say it is brother. >> al gore tweeting today "is it just me or is blanket surveillance unseemly outrageous?" there are a number of organizations who have been banging on about this for quite some time. today we saw a document that gives us a glimpse of this program. of course today members of the senate and house intelligence committees, specifically mike rogers from the house, have been laying it out in quite some detail and saying, look, this is work. this has prevented terrorist attacks on the united states. it is audited. it is constantly reviewed. we certainly have this window thrown open on something we suspected was there, but never knew about. >> since the attacks on september 11, americans have had this issue of the balance between security and freedom, they tend to side with national security. do you think they will do that again? >> good point. this fear is waning. but i think this is a story about big data. it is a story about what you can do nowadays, but you probably could not d d during te days of 9/11. the public is convinced -- as lindsey graham was speaking today on capitol hill -- that this is properly managed. this is a system which congress and of the authorities have put, this complicated architecture to train them. if people are convinced that is being properly managed, i do not know why they would object strongly. it is quite good today that we have this window thrown open. >> thank you for coming in. on friday president obama meets his chinese counterpart in california for a two-day summit behind closed doors. gone are the days when human rights are the trickiest issue .etween the two governments now it is cyber spying washington is ununppy about. the loss of intellectual property could be costing america as much hundred billion dollars a year. from beijing, we have the story. >> they are some of america's most our full businessman. behinding this week -- the smiles, worries. key secrets have been stolen by chinese computer hackers. >> we have intrusions into our systems daily. they come from all over the world. >> some come from china? >> we believe so, yes. the latestgns were american stealth fighter have been stolen and china is building its own stealth plane. firms like coca-cola have been targeted and google's secret codes, too. tot introversion is traced this giant technology college. u.s. patience is wearing thin. >> on the american citizens when of you, this is communist china coming over and -- point of view, this is communist china coming over and stealing our secrets. it is the worst possible view of the country. chinese president will be told by barack obama that many of the attacks have been , aced to china's own army special unit operating in shanghai. both sides agreed military espionage is to be expected, but america says the focus on u.s. companies and technology must stop. information, especially military information did not just again with the internet. spying has been around for hundreds of years. it is normal. >> if you go online, you can see china has a growing industry around cyber attacks. you can find lessons in hacking, hacking software, even chinese hackers for hire. this one will steal any information you want and for 20 pounds an hour take any website you liked off-line. and it says the service is 100% guaranteed. china is turning out cheap, but skilled programmers. some are launching attacks -- some are not launching attacks, but helping to stop them. this company protects companies in america and europe from hacker assaults. they can earn huge sums. >> mostly hacker attacks are for money. the largest amount i saw was 100 million -- >> so 10 million pounds? >> yes. u.s. is damaging competitiveness and innovation. if it gets worse, the issue could poison relations with china. >> a complicated summit. you are watching "bbc world news america." still to come, a decade after guantanamo bay opened, what is america going to do with hundred 66 -- 166 detainees being held there? now the latest on the flooding in central europe. at least 13 are known to have died in the floods with tens of thousands evacuated. steve evans has more on these plots, the worst in decades. worst in decades. >> the floods cover a wide area. north of germany. sheep and a headshot were carried to safety as the waters threaten to their enclosures. broke.r, to dams some walked. at some weighed. streets turn into canals. in the historic city of dresden, there has been a heroic community effort to fill sandbags. in area towns, there are similar community efforts. human chains to form barriers. this new house was threatened but people came to protect it. further south in the czech republic and austria, the waters are receding. but new problems emerge as the waters fall. many did not have insurance because companies were loath to cover property in areas prone to flooding. >> you can't get insurance. you can't insure your home in a floodplain. recriminations are starting. in bavaria, the government is accusing some landowners of preventing their land being used for flood prevention schemes. industryruction accused some people of blocking projects to reduce the risk. this blood won't be over just when the waterfalls. damage and grief will remain for some time. >> inc. once on a monday, q but, more than 11 years after the u.s. government opened its detention facility, 166 inmates remain incarcerated, many without charge. takingee prisoners are part in a hunger strike and some are being force fed. jonathan beal has visited the camp. >> the start of another day at one of the world's most infamous jails. , still here after more than a decade. inside, no set -- no sign of a let up. the u.s. describes those being held as dangerous men, even though most have never been charged. and most are on hunger strikes. >> we were shown around by a guard who did not want to be identified. it is a place where nothing is quite what it seems. >> i can watch tv? >> they are in restraints. >> you mean shackling? >> it is humane. a term thatding is is avoided. instead they call this interval feeding. in starting a tube through a prisoners nose and down to their stomach. i call it force-feeding. it is force-feeding, isn't it? >> it's a bit of semantics. this is a medical procedure. we do this and regular hospitals where patients nene to be fed. call it what you like. have been fedes this way twice a day. held in this chair to be sure they survive. privilegeiving withdrawn from all but the most polite. >> we secure those yards for safety reasons. >> [indiscernible] >> it is just detainees. they are just making noise about something. >> [indiscernible] >> at least with one detainee. >> that is one detainee making that noise? and you know which one? >> no. but you're welcome to look in the cell. kept away from the prisoners locked inside, but we have occasionally hehetheir protest. >> [indiscernible] why do you think they are on hunger strike? >> their initial issues had to do with some changes in camp rules. their primary issue is that they want to go home. >> no one here knows how this hunger strike will end. whether president obama will deliver on his promise to close down this prison. jonathan beal, bbc news, quan thanh amo. guantanamo. amo -- >> a quick update on other news tonight. vladimir putin and his wife have announced their divorce. they said it was a mutual decision, but rather a curious way to tell the world about it. nothing says s 's america like a good old-fashioned drive-in movie. ,onvertibles, crackly speakers kissing teenagers. there is nothing like a drive-in to suggest a summer of fun. at this icon actually began in 1933. filmmaker kurt and he has run a cold be -- so maker kurt kenny has run a cold the rise and fall of drive-in's. the whole idea is fantastically american and romantic. what was it like going to those first ones? familyas inexpensive home entertainment before home video. that started to take off after ii when people have more spending money. in the 1950's, when the teenager was something pop- culture celebrated celebrated, they discovered it was the perfect eight hangout. people started making movies specificalal for them and for drive-ins. they were not the best quality because kids were not paying attention to the movie. as long as you had a great poster and a grere trailer, it was fine. >> because they were busy doing other things in the backseat of the car. >> if you missed five or 10 minutes of the movie, it would not matter. you could follow the story. >> that is not what killed off the drive-in movie, was it? >> from what i understand what killed off the drive-in movie was two things. land values and video. a combination of the two. you have this piece of land that was being used to just make money at night and people realized we can make a multiplex and show mark mobius -- and long, it sort of show multiple movies all day long, it sort of double the financial value of the property. as far as the family aspect was concerned, home video comes in and the late 1970's and early 1980's, and families can stay at home and not go anywhere. it was just more convenient and you do not have the babysitter problem and all that. it was a combination of those things. >> but all is not lost because drive-ins are making a comeback. >> in a nostalgic way, yes. i have really noticed is outdoor movies, particularly in the summer, of gumby huge thing all over -- have become this huge thing all over. in los angeles, they show movies out in the cemetery, which i know sounds weird, but it is really cool. they project movies on the back of the script. it is sold out every weekend. the academy of motion pictures and science started doing this thing. they built this new venue with perfect projection, perfect sound. it is drive-in movieiewithout the cars, but that is that her, i think, because you can experience the night air and enjoy being outside. >> ok. i think we all remember our first of drive-in movie. my first one was in africa in the 1990's. in q4 joining us -- thank you for joining us. >> thank you. >> that brings the show to a close. do tune in tomorrow. we will see you then. >> funding of this presentation is made possible by the freeman foundation of new york, stowe, vermont, and honolulu, newman's own foundation, union bank, and united healthcare. >> at union bank, our relationship managers work hard to understand the industry you operate in, working to nurture new ventures and help provide capital for key strategic decisions. we offer expertise and tailored solutions in a wide range of industries. what can we do for you?
