their leader does not resigned by tomorrow, they will start to occupy government buildings and other sites. >> so father is no side but -- no sign of either side backing down. china, for its part, calling the protest illegal. >> many have the day off of work to mark china's national day. >> central hong kong turned into a sea of lights on wednesday night. it is another day in the fight for democracy for many here. >> there are the disappointing feelings of the hong kong people, the he cannot even have our basic human rights of voting for our leaders. >> protesters ridiculed the celebrations for the china national holiday. they booed as helicopters flew past the chinese and hong kong

flags. the symbolism of the day only toughened the result of the movement. many demonstrated in silence to underscore their view that their demands for more democracy are falling on deaf ears. police were out in force, but refrain from intervening. official ceremonies took place far from the protest. the hong kong chief executive was there to mark the 65th anniversary of the founding of the people's republic. he is viewed as a beijing ally and says the demonstrations are illegal. >> it is understandable that different people might have different ideas about desirable reform package, but it is better to have universal suffrage that not. both hong kong and the chinese government face a crisis of major proportions. aging has so far refused to budge on the protesters demands. it is also increasing censorship on the mainland in order to

prevent any spread of the democracy movement. >> in serious some 32 people, 10 of them children, were killed when two bombs loaded at an elementary school in a government controlled area. it is unclear who was behind the attack. >> the bombing came as they continued their offensive bombing on the turkish border. the turkish parliament is expected to improve mandate -- approve mandates on thursday to carry it -- carry out operations inside of syria. >> explosions in syria can be heard across the border in turkey. the us-led international mission is continuing airstrike and radical islamists have reportedly advanced to within two kilometers of the kurdish border town. 300 villages in the region are already under islamic state control.

for many, fleeing turkey is their only hope of survival. >> these militants, these animals, they stormed our village. nobody helped us. we are appealing to the world for help. >> until now turkey has resisted calls for military involvement in the conflict. but the nato member has mobilized tanks and troops on the border. parliament is due to debate on thursday whether to authorize ross border incursions. >> we have prepared a mandate that covers all possible threats,, and measures that are possible in light of their geographical situation. >> previously the turkish government had ruled out online involvement in the international military campaign. fearing that it would also the

rebels in turkey. on wednesday they announced that they would consider making their military bases available to other countries fighting the islamic date. >> the status quo must change between israel and the palestinians. those are the words of barack obama just a short while ago. >> he met with the israeli prime minister at the white house, saying that israel needed to find a way to keep its citizens safe from rocket fire while avoiding civilian casualties in gaza. they cited common goals of preventing extremism. so, what is likely to be the main issue on the agenda during the netanyahu is it to the? richard walker caught up with me and some -- nathan sox at the brookings institute. >> at the beginning of the week we heard from benjamin netanyahu

at the united nations. now he is in washington bringing the message about not been an perusal i iran over its nuclear program. do you think he is going to get a willing and receptive audience in the white house after mark >> this is mostly for public consumption. the president has heard this from the prime minister many times. still, iran is the number one issue on the mind of the israelis. the three things on his mind, the joke is, are iran, iran, and iran. >> that new context is now of course the have many countries from around the world and the region joining in this battle against the islamic state. it really is a new situation and new overall picture in the middle east. where does israel fit in strategically? >> on the one hand israel is very concerned about the mayhem around it.

they find themselves with a lot of angst about the jihad these in every dirction. there are other ways in which they are much more secure. many of the main powers have the same alliance with israel. sorry arabia and egypt have been strongly boosted by the muslim brotherhood. also, the islamic eight and iran . this offers a strange alliance with old adversaries. on the fight with the islamic state, israel is certainly cooperating. they always do. but they are staying out of the fray. when these kinds of coalitions are overtly anticipating, it often weakens the coalition. exit worse, the relationship between barack obama and benjamin netanyahu is notoriously bad. john kerry of course failed in his latest push for peace. can the world really expect the israeli u.s. partnership to bring really anything constructive in the next you months or years?

>> the relationship between the prime minister and president is not good on a personal level, but they have found a way of working together on these issues. there have been serious afflictions in the past, but the relationship is close and runs all the way down through the administration. that said, things that rim at the moment on the peace process. not just because of the relationship, but because of where both arteries are. president abbas has turned to the international arena and is not seeking direct negotiations with israel. israeli -- israel does not seem -- does not see that as fruitful and will continue to build settlements. this does not look like a bright future in the next few months or years in terms of israeli palace any and negotiations. >> thank you very much for taking the time. >> my pleasure. >> that was richard walker speaking to anthony sacks of the bookings institute. people have been injured and

killed in blasts near the capital. >> the taliban has claimed responsibility, claiming that they were a response to the tuesday signing of the u.s. afghan or judeo. the former bosnian serb leader says that you and prosecutors do not have a shred of evidence that link them to atrocities during the bosnian war. >> he made the statement during argument in the hague hague. he faces charges including genocide for his role in the 1995 massacre of eight house and muslim men and boys. >> in the u.s. now, several leading american airlines say they are in close contact with federal health officials about ebola related travel concerns after a traveler was diagnosed on u.s. soil. like the patient, now hospitalized in dallas, flew

from liberia through brussels to texas. >> everyone who has been in close contact with the individual has been monitored or is being monitored as a precaution. >> the patient has been put in isolation in this cost in dallas, tex. he flew in from liberia on the seventh and days late -- days later he tested positive for ebola. authorities are tracking down anyone who may have come in close contact with him. >> i think that handful is the right characterization. we know that there are several family members. there may have been won, two, or three other community members. we are there to do additional investigations. >> officials say that other passengers on the flight are not in danger, since ebola is only contained when the affected person shows symptoms. they said it was only a matter of time before someone carrying the virus arrived in the u.s..

>> i have no doubt that will stop this and it tracks. i also have no doubt that as long as the outbreak continues in africa, we need to be on our guard. >> ebola has ravaged entire communities in west africa, killing over 3000 so far. in contrast, they say it is not likely to spread in the u.s. and that they have been preparing for a case like this for months. >> for some much-needed clarity we are joined now by jonah schmidt from the institute for tropical medicine in hamburg. welcome to the program. the big question right now is -- do we know with 100% certainty that all of those other passengers aboard the plane with this u.s. ebola victim are in fact not infected? >> i have to say that 100% does not exist in nature or medicine, but i can say that 99 9% it is not possible, the virus can be

traded from an asymptomatic patient. if the patient is not symptomatic, the virus cannot be transmitted to passengers or relatives. and he was not symptomatic during the flight. >> the sire of relief for those on board. but commercial airlines continue to fly to countries battling this epidemic. is that playing with fire? >> no, it is important. we have to transport goods that people and medical care. everyone who wants to leave the country is screened for fever, for symptoms. if these passengers show symptoms they are not allowed to leave those countries. in this case the patient was not symptomatic, so he was allowed to leave. he finally got sick in the u.s.. this is another situation, but he was finally identified and isolated. i think that the possibility for an outbreak compared to west africa is zero for the u.s..

>> so, no need for any type of air or in team with sierra leone? >> no, no need. the opposite is very important in terms of continuing with a slight. >> where is this epidemic headed? is it a matter of time before it is europe? >> it must he stopped in africa. we have to put in a lot of effort to stop the air. it would be more worse it could spread to other african countries. then we would have a really big problem in europe and the u.s.. we have to stop it there, that is the main and think. >> that was a doctor of tropical medicine, and to us earlier about the risk posed by the ebola virus. wife nato has a new secretary-general, the former norwegian prime minister started work in brussels on wednesday. wax he left a former peace activists with a history of

working with russia. he said that there was no contradiction between a strong nato and good relationships with the kremlin. but he warned them that it would not stop from a strong eastern europe. >> we do not seek confrontation with russia, but we cannot from -- cannot compromise on the principles on which the alliance and the security in north america rests. we will continue our full support for an independent, sovereign, and stable ukraine. each european nation must be free to decide its own course. we need to see those changes in russia's actions. >> that was the new nato secretary-general's eking earlier. we will be live in eastern ukraine after a short break, about one minute time. is the cease-fire in danger? >> that and more, coming up in 60 seconds.

>> this is the time of time passing that's the sound of time passing. adding to greenhouse gases. what is the sound of a tree not falling? the sound of biodiversity, tourism, community development, reliable food and water. the united nations development

program is listening and working with communities to protect forest for the future that we want. if you are hearing what we are hearing, find out more. >> welcome back. at least 10 people have been killed in eastern ukraine despite an official cease-fire between the separatist rebels and the government he have. >> shelling of the rebel stronghold destroying a bus and hitting a nearby school playground. it was the first day of the new school year there. no children were killed in the attack, luckily. the shelling is being aimed on the rebels, while the rebels are blaming it on government worse is. so, what does this mean for the cease-fire in eastern europe rain? let's go live to our correspondent in kiev. what more can you tell us about the incident? >> according to the council and pro-russian separatist, 10 were killed and 30 to 40 were injured when miss fired shells hit the

schoolyard and a minibus. apparently it was no targeted attack, but fighting around the nearby airport spilled over into this residential area and into this neighborhood. who is to blame? naturally ukrainian officials blame the separatists and they, in contrast, say that the ukrainian army started with the shelling. it's impossible to say which version is true. the only thing that is certain is that it is connected to the ironing around the air or. >> what else are you hearing in the ukrainian capital about the situation in the east of the country? >> well, the overall situation in east ukraine is generally 10, according to osce monitoring missions, which are right now in eastern ukraine. the peace deal upon which the parties have agreed almost one

month ago has been, in fact, violated almost daily. so, it is quite questionable to call it a cease-fire. the firing around the airport had increased over the last couple of days and, apparently, the separatist are advancing upon the air or. -- airport. there is now a fear that crane might -- that ukraine might fire without return. >> that was the latest in kiev. thank you very much. >> france has defined its european -- to hide its european partners by saying it will take two years longer than initially promised to get its deficit under the european union limit. >> reporters at a news conference were told that the reason for the delay was the fragile french economy. >> the french government announced lands to save 50 billion euros by 2017, also

defiantly resisting calls from its partners for more austerity. the french finance minister said the country would get its budget deficit back under their 3% limit, but two years later than promised. >> we assume responsibility for the seriousness of the budgetary situation. we refuse austerity. the consequence is that the deficit will fall from 4.4% in 2014 to 4.3% in 2015 and only fall below 3% in 2017. >> in response, the german chancellor, angela merkel, did not mention france i name but it was clear she had a country in mind. >> we believe there is a reason that it is called the stability and growth pact. sustainable, long-term growth can only be maintained on the bit -- on the basis of solid budgets. of course, the credibility of

the european union is also at stake here. x the european commission has decided whether to impose sanctions on the second largest economy in europe. >> in business news, europe's august online fashion retailer made its high-profile debut on the frankfurt stock exchange today. >> set up in 2008, it is one of the stars of the buzzing berlin startup scene, they are hoping to raise about 600 million euros with this ipo. >> they started out small, trading from home. now the founders have taken their company shares to the stock exchange and are selling them for a price that is tipped to generate over 600 million euros. >> it means we will be very well financed and in a strong position, giving us a competitive edge. >> they have expanded at a rapid rate. many believe that they will become europe's largest shop for loose cap -- shoes, clothes, and

accessories. the company posted its first ever profit, a modest 29 million euros in the second order of this year. during its first year they posted a loss of over 1.5 million euros. two years later sales were soaring along with losses. the figures continue to rise in 2013, with losses totaling 120 million euros. in recent years they have invested heavily in advertising campaigns, just one reason that it failed to turn a profit. now that they have taken the step of becoming a public company, they will no longer be able to take such liberties. >> our correspondent was in frankfurt when those stocks hit the trading floor. this is what he had to say. >> the traitors in frankfurt

were downright delighted at how this event staged. it was a huge event with all sorts of goings-on right here on the floor and on the where in front of the exchange. there were models running around. there were mannequins displaying the fashion. and there were a and small packages here. there was a lot of fatty. it was a reminder of how i the o's used the, big men sin the past. to many it was also a reminder of the data and negative side of the so-called new economy, where the bubble burst at the turn-of-the-century. so, hardly any profit, but valued higher than the funds up. -- lufthansa. >> all right, more on that in a minute, but restricted a look at the market numbers. the dax lost about 1% of the day. euro stoxx are also down by nearly the same amount. the day is not over yet for

traders in new york, the dow jones is currently down by almost 1.5. the euro is trading at one dollar and $.26. >> for more on those alonzo -- the solano -- zolando ipo, a lot of fans are there. but this is a company that has only been profitable for one order. what is your take on that? >> that is just the truth of the matter. the fact that they have up to this year not earned any money, it may have been one of the reasons why the share price crumbled today. they have had big gains in revenue but only one profitable order. putting money into the company today is a big that on the future. >> rocket internet tomorrow, ste even bigger. what do you know? >> exactly, they are supposed to

raise about 1.6 ilya and euros tomorrow. they call themselves and he later, a company that sounds online startup and finances them , taking one successful business model from one market and putting it to use in another market. for example, they founded an online clothing retailer in russia and afforded the company that developed in cap in where you can call a cab. they were even there in germany in 1999 when they created the thing of a german ebay and kept it running for six and then sold it to the original ebay in the u.s. for a whopping $3 million. >> sounds controversial, are they copycats? >> they are. some people are criticizing the model. others are saying that taking a business model, developing it, pushing it further, providing it to finance, staff, and technology, that is also what economies are based on.

for that matter, that is with the german car companies did back in the 1990's, copying and it's a production from their asian competitors, developing it further, they were successful today. that is something that these companies need to prove in order to be successful, because none of those companies have been profitable yet. >> we will keep an eye on them and if they start making money you will know about -- no doubt be back on the show. thank you. >> half of the century ago, japan began staking out what was to become a major claim in the global consumer electronics and automobiles market. why nothing was more emblematic of the growing industrial japanese technological prowess and the introduction of its first high-speed train. >> it did not just cut down travel time, it gave the country a new sense of right. -- pride. >> don't blink, or you might

smell fuji. the bullet trains travel at around 300 kilometers per hour. just in time to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the train, the latest model is out of scope you want scheduled. -- full out of tokyo want scheduled. -- moved out of tokyo on schedule. in the last fiscal year, they say that their longest delay was under one minute. half of the century ago, the emperor saw the first bullet train off on its maiden journey. the man who runs the railway museum was a young engineer at the time and says that riding the train was like flying in the sky. >> at the time, trains going up to 200 10 kilometers per hour didn't exist. people called the super express

train of dreams. there was a sense of national lightman. people wanted to ride it. they were full of hope. the achievement inspire the nation to hope for the future. >> and there is more to come. japan is planning a new magnetic levitation line that could go almost 600 kilometers per hour, three times the trains original speed when it first opened 50 years ago. >> all right, that is going to put airplanes to the test. that will do it for us here on the journal. thanks for watching. >> fasten your seat else. bye-bye. captioned by the national captioning institute --www.ncicap.org--
