>> the government is now headed for its first shut down in over 17 years. house republicans passed a bill to keep the republicans going, including a year delay to the affordable care act, known as obamacare. democrats who control the senate said before and after the vote that changes to obamacare is dead on arrival. if republicans could find votes in the senate to pass their plan, which they can't. barack obama promised to veto the bill. house speaker john boehner believes the latest action could reflect some of the blame for the shutdown, and the pr and political battle over who is at fault has begun. >> a rare weekend session for the house. emotions are running high. >> the republican majority will vote to shut the government
4:02 pm
down. >> republicans say democrats are missing the point because they are too tide to obamacare. >> why are we doing this? number one, this is a program that is too expensive to afford. >> as both sides watch the clock and wait the blame game takes center stage. >> the house last night at 12:30 in the morning voted to keep the government open, to fully fund the government. at the same time the house responded to millions hurting under obamacare. the senate needs to do the same thing. >> what you see in the house is speaker boehner essentially handed the gavel to speaker cruz. >> the president weighed in, urging congress to remember what is at stake. >> it congress doesn't pass the -- if congress doesn't pass the budget by monday the government shuts down, along with many essential services. >> neither side is willing to
4:03 pm
give. >> what is democrats said, "we're going to shut down the government if we don't get immigration reform, gay rights and gun legislation". >> meanwhile obamacare is still slated to kick in this week. >> this is not the first time the government has faced a shutdown. in fact and since 1976 the country has been here 17 times. the shortst shutdown lasted one day. the most recent one december 1995 and lasted three weeks, ending in january "96, costing the u.s. economy $60 billion, hurting republicans, causing them to lose seats. if the democratic-led senate doesn't take up any of the bill there's a potential price involving military families. house republicans added a measure to the bill to ensure military personnel receive
4:04 pm
paychecks, there's no guarantee that the house republican bill will move through the senate. many military families are not sure how they'll make ends meet. >> didi saunders shops for her infant grandson at a thrift store. her daughter is a soldier at the nearby base fort hood. >> saunders is worried how her daughter's family will get through the shutdown, and is worried about all soldiers. >> they are fighting for the county. >> more than 42,000 soldiers are based at fort hood. without a congressional resolution the soldiers will report to work tuesday and work out pay until the bill gets the president's signature.
4:05 pm
only then will they be compensated retro actively. >> nothing i can do. >> this woman works at the thrift store to make ends meet. she said if her husband, a sergeant, loses his pay the family will be unable to meet basic needs. >> our rent, our utilities - do you know what i mean. necessities. survival. >> if a shutdown happen the first missed military pay check will be october 15th. that applies to soldiers that are deployed. usaa offering banking services to soldiers will allow members to take out no interest payroll advance loans. >> these are families serving our country and it's unfortunate they have to deal with the uncertainty. >> it will continue until congress decides to fund the budget.
4:06 pm
>> every one in the senate needs to man and woman-up. >> that's what these people are doing, looking for second jobs for the tough times ahead. >> joining us to discuss what is at stake politically is jeanne, a professor. we saw the piece business military families. people hate the idea they may be affected. people are furious that passports and visas will not be processed. they seem to be heading to a suicide mission, why do it? >> they believe foolhardedly that that's what the contit students want. they've -- constituents want. they've been fighting to end obamacare in 2010. they are staking the health of the party on it.
4:07 pm
they believe it's a fight they can win. the numbers don't back it up. >> the numbers suggest the anger that may be out against obamacare does not stack up to the anger more people have over a government shutdown. >> polls show people who don't like obamacare don't want to use the strategy of a shutdown to end obamacare. it's curious that republicans are fighting this. after last night they are saying, "we are not asking for a defund or repeal, but a delay. you delayed it for big businesses and small businesses, why not individuals." we are waiting to hear what the white house says. we know what harry reid said, "absolutely absolutely not, we are not going for a repeal or delay". >> it's a creative strategy saying okay we'll pass something, and it's the senate's
4:08 pm
fault if you don't pass the bill. will it work is this. >> the american public will blame the republicans. president obama is second in line. congress's numbers are low, and they can't get lower. like "95 or "96 republicans bear the blame. it's a fight they are willing to take on. that's how much anger there is in republican circles about obamacare and president obama. democrats say, "listen, let's avoid a shut down and work this out. they say, "absolutely not we have to delay or repeal it." >> some economists know the impact on the economy is nothing compared to the chaos if the debt ceiling is not raised. does this allow republicans to have a confrontation, take out
4:09 pm
the steam and pinning this on something that is catastrophic. >> some call this the shock therapy and what you said. we cannot afford to go into a default. we cannot afford not to raise the debt ceiling. if they are not going to agree to this, they are not going to agree in two weeks. the schooling and thinking in this is it will be a good thing for republicans. they'd get it out of the system and come together and negotiate. it's quite in washington dc, there's no face to face negotiations. for a short term we may be shut down. we may be better off in the long term. if we fail we don't know what the repercussions are. as you mention they could be devastating for the u.s. and individuals. >> political consequences could
4:10 pm
be severe for a government shutdown. it could be worth in the full fate of the united states is at risk. >> thank you for coming in. >> israeli prime minister benyamin netanyahu arrived in new york this morning ahead of his speech at the united nations general assembly and a meeting with president obama at the white house. before leaving he told reportsers he was coming to the united states to tell the truth about iran. >> translation: i will tell the truth in the face of the sweet talk and the onslaught of smiles. one must talk facts, and one must tell the truth. telling the truth today is vital for the security and peace of the world, and, of course, it's vital for the security of the state of israel. >> as benyamin netanyahu prepares again for the arrival at the united nations u.n. w
4:11 pm
weapon inspectors are heading to the region and will catalogue and destroy syria's chemical weapons. >> the u.n. security council voted on friday on a resolution to secure and destroy syria's chemical weapons. president obama and u.n. officials praised the approval of the long-debated resolution. here to discuss the challenges is richard butler, who served as the united nations chief inspector in iraq from 1997 to 1999. thank you for joining us. how difficult do you imagine that will be to get an honest assessment of what the syrians have? >> it won't be difficult for the u.n. experts to make an assessment. they are highly skilled, diligent, dedicated and know everything you need to know. it relies on syria's willingness to cooperate.
4:12 pm
drawing on the iraq experience, it was the same. when saddam hussein did not cooperate we had problems. when he did, we got the job done. in the end we did get the job done. they need syria to cooperate. it's important that syria met the deadline in declare what weapons they have got. i'm not being starry eyed but it's a basic condition. going on from that they are going to sites in a country that's in civil war. i would emphasise that we need to be very sure that inspectors are able to do their job and you physically protected at they go through the dangerous places. >> given the safety concerns in parts of the country that are being battled over, how much time shup -- should the
4:13 pm
officials be given to get to the sites. >> there's interesting news taking a bit of pressure off the startlingly short time frame that has been said in the security council resolution to get this job done. i'm not complying a complaint. is this a dreadful business. the sooner we get it down the better. that information is that it would appear - this the inspectors will be able to verify quickly - that a fair quantity of the large amount of chemical weapons capability that syria has is maintained in a binary state - that is, two parts. to make sarin, for example, you have to mix a couple of truly bad chemicals together, then you get sarin, the gas used on 21 august. the parts, held apart, are not as dangerous as when they are mixed and therefore weaponised. importantly a lot of the stuff that syria holds is in that
4:14 pm
prior state. the inspectors will find it an easier for quicker job for them to get rid of the weapons if they are in that binary state. >> inspectors are starting their job in the next couple of days. how long before the united nations, the rest of the world is told that they were getting access or permission to travel to where they'll need to go? will we know in a couple of days, a couple of weeks? what's the time frame? >> i think a short time, a couple of weeks. they will be able to know two things that are crucial - how accurate syria's initial declaration is or have they held some things back. secondly they'll know to what extent the first condition i mentioned, syria's cooperation. >> let me stop you there, with the first point, how do they determine whether syria is being
4:15 pm
accurate? how do they make that determination? >> it starts with their declaration. that will state, "we have so many tonnes of this, so many of that", and where they can be found. the inspectors need to go to those places and can tell relatively quickly. i'm not there and can't say if it will be days but i would expect within two weeks they'd know accurately or to their professional standard how accurate syria's statement would be. then what flows from that is an action plan having conducted the act of verification. it reveals an action plan that they will follow to destroy or remove the illegal substances. the decision of the security council based on the kerry-sergei lavrov agreement, endorsed by the chemical weapons
4:16 pm
watchdog body in the hague, it should be wrapped up by the middle of 2014. everyone recognises that may be tight. if it's being done, people will not lose too much sleep over a slippage from july 2014 to september 2014. >> what is it like being a u.n. weapons inspector? is the team nerve ours, excited? what is the mood when they are about to do something like this? >> these people are true professionals, they put their nose down, tail up and get the job done. i have sympathy for the predictament they are going to find themselves. this is hard work and you are conducting it in an environment you could hardly call friendly. they have to keep their nerve, i am sure they will. i welcome the question.
4:17 pm
people should spare a thought for these people. they'll be in difficult circumstances, doing a vital job. people around them, even though they are cooperating will hardly be their best friends. >> richard butler, former weapons inspector. thank you for joining us. we appreciate it. >> pleasure, david. thank you. >> i'm metrologist dave warren. out in the west a large storm off the coast of canada and waves of rain going over the same area. all the water coming in over the mountains dumping inches of rain around washington and oregon. you can see the rain coming in. you get a break. rain coming in over the rockies. all dealing with a lot of wind

4:19 pm
getting less than minimum wage. the u.s. attorney-general is looking at whether the system is legal. >> natalie used to like working at mcdonald's until the company gave her a payroll cord. it's loaded up with an employees' wage used at the atm like a deb it card. natalie was not given a choice. >> i went home and called hire ups to see if they could find another way, a check or something, and they told me they could activate the card or not get paid. she quit, hired a lawyer and sued mcdonald's >> let's check the fees: >> that doesn't leave much when
4:20 pm
you earn $7.25 an hour. about 50 u.s. companies use the payroll card system - most big name retailers and restaurants, and it's popular. companies can save up to millions a year by switching from paychecks to payroll cards. . >> the prepay card industry is relatively new. there's a wide range of companies involved, a spectrum of costs associated with the cards, protections that people get and other abusive practices. >> corporations insist they offer staff multiple ways to be paid and it helps low-wage workers who do not have bank accounts. walgreens use the payroll card, but offer employees payment by deposit or check. they said:
4:21 pm
. >> go online and check applications. >> natalie is looking for work online and at job fairs. she has a seven-year-old daughter to support. >> they are taking advantage of underage kids who don't understand fees and debit cards. i think they are taking advantage of people who are less fortunate or struggling to find a job. natalie would rather be unemployed than watch her salary become smaller, without touching her money. >> the ecoli bacteria is known as a cause of food poisoning. you'll be happy to know scientists put it to a good use in an attempt to lower your fuel bills.

a team of scientists in south korea created a strain of bacteria that could be the future of fuel production. al jazeera's correspondent has the report. >> at this university they are celebrating a break through. using a genetically modified version of e-coli the team breaks down into fatty acids and gasso lean. >> the reason why i use ecoli is it's very easy to manipulate and information is well informed. >> similar methods elsewhere produced diesel. this is the first time petrol has been made in this way.
4:25 pm
the resulting lik quid could go into a conventional car. at the moment it would take a long time to fill up a tank. >> for every litre of the culture they create using sugar and bacteria, only half of woun gram of fuel will be produced. >> at an industrial scale the production of ethan knoll from sugar cane. the results is that it makes the fuel used in millions of internal combustion engines, without the need to convert them. it faces questions about using energy and agricultural land to produce not food, but fuel. >> i do not agree. if you do the mass biomass, you have a tonne that's wasted. you don't have to use food,

scheduling formula that could take effect next season the the pre-season schedule may go from 4 to three but extending the play off from 12-14. it will offset revenue from the elimination from pre-season. >> this morning in greece the olympic torch took out on a long journey that will carry it into russia and outer space before arriving at sochi winter games. >> more sport coming up later and major league baseball. >> thank you. just ask congress wrangles, budget and funding for the affordable care act. great britain is implementing reforms of their own. we look at whether it's working. skepticism from israel about

4:29 pm
welcome back to al jazeera.
4:30 pm
i'm david shuster, here is a look at your headlines. >> the federal government with a clock ticking appears to be headed to its first shut down in 17 years. >> house republicans voted on a bill to keep the government run, but included a delay in the obamacare. that goes to the senate, expected to reconvene at noon and reject what the house has done. >> u.n. inspectors are headed to begin the lengthy process of trying to identify, catalogue and destroy syria's chemical weapons. members of the team arrived in damascus. the u.n. security council voted on friday on a resolution to secure and destroy syria's chemical weapons. president obama and u.n. officials praised the
4:31 pm
long-waited resolution. >> israeli president benyamin netanyahu challenges president hassan rouhani's charm offensive. benyamin netanyahu will speak in front of the general assembly on tuesday. he hopes to challenge perceptions that iran is less of a nuclear threat under president hassan rouhani. >> israel has arrested a man they believe is a spy for iran. shin bet says the man is a belgium citizen recruited by the iranian revolutionary guard. >> for israel much dependents on the visit between israeli and washington, the visit by benyamin netanyahu. he made it clear it's a time for straight talking.

4:33 pm
>> on sunday israeli intelligence accused alex mans of spying. shin bet said he was found with photographs of the u.s. embassy in tel aviv. he said he was offered a million dollars to spy on israel and visited three times in the previous year. news of the arrest came as benyamin netanyahu left for washington. it will be presented by the israelis as furthest that the rainians cannot be trusted. that will be the thrust of prime minister benyamin netanyahu's meeting with president obama at the white house. >> joining us to talk about the iranian u.s. relations is a
4:34 pm
professor from stanford. >> should israel be concerned about the apparent niceties of iran and usa. >> i am sure they have more to worry about because they are closer to iran. i think i would listen though the words of president perez who today, i think, gave an interesting speech saying israel cannot take the position that only it n understands what is good for the international community. attacking the united states and belittling them will lead to further isolation. i think israel has legitimate right to articulate its concerns. i think it has to recognise that there is a change in tone and unless you test the waters, you
4:35 pm
can't determine or say whether the change in tone will translate and change in action. >> professor, it was an interesting week for us. there was the snub as far as an iranian and u.s. meeting. secretary kerry met with his counterpart and then the phone call between president obama and hassan rouhani. what did you make of this? >> to me it was a diplomatic dance, a foregone conclusion that something important would happen. i was not and still not sure how quickly the event will transfers into new relations for diplomatic contacts. sanctions are hurting the com f economy. there was a consensus. they need to talk with the
4:36 pm
united states and have a new international behaviour otherwise the country will go into a tail spin. the symbolic value was important. the writing was on the wall several weeks before, that something like this was in the offing. >> is there anything we should read into the symbolism of how president hassan rouhani was great when he came home and there was demonstrations and nasty things says. seems he's under domestic pressure. is that accurate? >> i think he is. i've been reading several of the attacks on him, mr mr zarif, he's a cape eble foreign minister. saying that he has gone to far, made too many contentions, been fooled by the united states, and betraying the trust, nasty language. what is not clear is whether
4:37 pm
this is really the last gasp of a luna tick friends or whether the conservatives or radical islam its will slant a challenge or what seems to be his attempt to normalise relations with the world. >> thank you professor. thank you for being part of our program, we appreciate it. >> thank you for having me. >> you're welcome. >> at least 50 people believed to be college students are dead after a gunman stormed a dormitory in north-east nigeria. college officials say the funt were killed whilst sleeping. the gunmen from boko haram are fighting for an islamic state. >> as congress debates the affordable care act, across the atlandic great britain is implementing reforms to its

caring little for the patients and more about securing and protecting their jobs. >> julie lost her mother and starred xp cure the nhs. she warns americans about creating a bureaucracy so large that abuses are undiagnosed or untreated. >> one thing they need to watch out for in america in the health care system is accountability, that is lacking in the nhs. fobd is held up to account. without accountility, it will continue, the harm will continue. you need to have accountability to people do the job they are paid to do. >> accountability is part of the nhs. there has been criticisms of measures that the current government pushed through, making health care profitable.
4:40 pm
some get taxpayer money and lucrative government grants. >> private care has been in the uk for decades for those that can afford it. the level of care is about the same, but it allows for patients to go to the end of the line when it comes to getting speedier operations. it's not a concern for transplant americans. he has been undergoing care since the beginning of this year. he's satisfied and his message... >> to welcome it with open arms. the small tax increase that it costs is words every penery of it. end of story. i'm a complete convert. i prefer this system. >> by and large the british people are proud of their health care, show casing it in last year's olympic opening ceremony.
4:41 pm
british health care is recorded as among the best in the world. >> the problem underlying all of this is as medical procedures are more advanced they become more expensive and people live longer, further raising costs. the question is how to create a system treating all those in need but not at the expense of others. it appears there's no one single, simple treatment for that. >> there are problems for bowing 787 dream liner, a plane has been grounded and demanded bowing fix the problem. norwegian says the plane suffered break downs and bowing says the repair will take a couple of tas. >> they have roareded six more. >> chin in the united states are in school.
