Egypt's president has taken his most decisive step yet to assert power over the influential military - sacking two top generals. The Defence Minister, who served as the country's interim leader after Hosni Mubarak was ousted, was dismissed along with the Chief of Staff. Morsi started to move more boldly against the army after an attack by militants in Sinai that killed 16 border guards. For more, RT talks to Asia Times correspondent Pepe Escobar.

GMO tomatoes: good-looking poison

Ever since industrial agriculture has started producing tomatoes, they have all started looking the same. That's because consumers want the ripest, reddest, roundest tomatoes they can get, and big business makes sure they got it. The question though is what producing genetically identical tomatoes does for the taste and nutritional value. Barry Estabrook, author of "Tomato-land: How Modern Industrial Agriculture Destroyed Our Most Alluring Fruit," joins RT's Liz Wahl to discuss the matter.

TSA gone wild

Submitted by Rain on Fri, 08/10/2012 - 05:21

Published on Aug 9, 2012 by
 

The TSA has become an acronym many Americans have come to dread. From too-close-for-comfort pat-downs to virtually nude snapshots, people are accusing the Transportation Security Administration of going too far time and time again. The federal government has spent an estimated 60 billion dollars on the TSA since 9/11, but the agency has seen an approval rating of only 54 percent as of late which, oddly enough, is more support than even President Obama or Mitt Romney has received in the polls. So why is the TSA more popular than politicians? Amie Stepanovich, associate litigation counsel for EPIC, joins RT's Liz Wahl to discuss this.
