but the judicial system is meddling in politics and stopping a free discussion base of many say that ban has had the reverse effect because not even a single minute in styria and less than two percent of the population of muslim. the freedom party failed to get a single seat at the last election now it's expected to triple its vote and put a dent in the ruling coalition of two centrist party to have a little bitty a change in the india whole system because i have to feeling it's just storage to get back to what they like to just position themselves as like. the resistance of the true origin people which is kind of being suppressed by the by the status quo if the freedom party performs well it will follow the footsteps of recent successes by far i'd parties in sweden belgium and the netherlands. it appears that no longer can the centrist parties ignore the voices of those alone by immigration or they risk being penalized at the ballot box. party gratz steria.

very important issues being considered at that summit there is really a lot of different activity that is going to be taking place at the u.n. we have hundreds of bilateral meetings taking place where each country tries to push their agenda forward traditionally we all know that new york is a great place to be if you want to spot celebrities but this week it's politicians this is the place where you need to be if you want to see as crossing the street with the loud crowds following him or if you want to see the french president sarkozy and carla bruni going to one of new york's chic restaurants to have lunch is mahmoud ahmadinejad really stealing the spotlight this year we're expecting protests to take place all throughout the entire week there are ads all over new york city against mahmoud ahmadinejad and of course he's going to be making speeches and that is something that's also very closely watched and. traditionally we see u.s. delegations walking out when he makes a speech and so on so definitely he's the man stealing the show for now this time around what investigative journalist to have to talk we believe that so far the

to get it is tax the banks tax the people who caused the depression tax the people who are generally a little bit like the french nobility before eight hundred seventeen eighty nine say that they're immune to taxation it's a political it's politically explosive most people think that wall street is already taxed and when they realize that it's not they go they go berserk i think that has tremendous potential for getting the world out of the depression where we are now so of all people sarkozy but gold is where you find it and i would urge people to grab ahold of this with both hands and with your teeth if you can because this is the most promising thing that i've heard from the u.n. in many many years. was investigative journalist webster tarpley well still to come in the program they say a positive thinking change of mood can change the world. delving into the world of energy fields that some people describe as you all to try to separate the science from the net. fund why these georgians say

pick point back there needs to be some. months of training camp appears to be so fearful of car bombs missing weapons and so the idea. and it's a far cry from what is needed. they are not untrained but the training they receive is not enough the americans only thought to create an iraqi army in two thousand and four by then it was too late because the terrorists had already infiltrated. but with the increase of violence in iraq in recent weeks the need for a competent domestic security force has never been greater but whether or not the u.s. and iraq can wise to the challenge is still here to be seen. r t baghdad. a bus carrying thirty school children has plunged into a river historic us mere killing at least eleven of them the driver and four children have been rescued but the rest are believed dead hundreds joined in the

now russian scientist is trying to convince people they can change the world despite using the energy he claims that thinking in a certain way can have a positive or negative effect on the surrounding environment. can you don't let me influence the world around you with just the power of your mind although it might sound far fetched a leading russian scientist believes we can do exactly that and using a device that fate human energy fields he's attempting to prove that. idea. it's. walt and we want. to bridge your understanding of the unseen world advantages scientific experiments carried out using a technique called by electricity took a fairly this subject that we constantly think. that the way to do

this and it feels this is the light around the body or what some people would feel or. discovered in the one nine hundred thirty s. by a version inventor semi uncannily and he realized that stimulating a subject with a short electrical impulse you get a burst of light or photons and electrons around subjects it looks like war but i don't think this word because it has some of the physical meaning i prefer as award energy fields the device itself each finger individually with different thing is responsible for different parts of the body and feeds the information into a computer to interpret is one supposed benefit of this technique is early diagnosis is serious illnesses like heart disease and cancer but some who work in the mainstream medical profession remain unconvinced. from the point of view of today's medicine i don't think this can be used as medical evidence and i would

even go further and say that it's harmful rather than harmless as a diverse people from the true causes of the illness and from the truly effective treatment and some of the claims in energy field research are even more far reaching with more intentions we can influence. environment our space of course this idea is absolutely new that's right it has a lot of criticism still has a very important message for all of us because we do most stated that it was a different more since they have very strong influence but the same and even more strong influence has negative for more since but in one case energy comes up in other cases come about so. that we. develop ourselves they need to. create positive.

hello and a very warm welcome to the business program the term credit crunch entered the daily lexicon when banks put the brakes on lending and governments around the world responded by printing cash to boost the quiddity but economists now warn they may be too much money leading to predictions of hyper inflation by dimmock which the reports. since the global financial crisis broke the russian government allocated a vast sums of cash to keep the banking system afloat but few companies are borrowing right now and many banks prefer to earn a low but safe return from the government rather than risk investing in companies. from rural sybille lives russia like other governments create is much more money than the economy needed look at what russia did during the crisis was that it was

out of sync as it was with the rest of the g twenty when g twenty countries or g nine hundred showed we say it went into quantity of easing russia did the opposite in the title in order to stabilize the economy the evidence is clear the central banks continue to issue huge amounts of money hoping that banks will lend to industry however the money's mostly recycled back into government bowman's the real economy has largely stop borrowing treasury bonds yields are falling around the world and sign of enormous buying demand as banks six save havens for their cash economists fear it japanese style lost decade while the lows the case can occur if you're having a long term period of no credit that means the banking there is a demand for credit at the same time the banking system is jammed was poor quality assets we see that there are some risks in the individual banks that have not fully cleared up their balance sheets from restructured loans the long term fear is

hyperinflation if central bank don't act fast enough to withdraw the excessive liquidity because human prices start to rocket economists are confident the central bank of russia won't take risks with inflation and central banks always have to be vigilant about buying turning the right balance a liquidity in the economy and we have seen quite strong growth in the money supply in the last few months but i think that really reflects that. return to normal ization off to the shop for during the recession the young raising interest rates the government could introduce measures similar to the car voucher scheme which cost people to spend thus removing money out of the economy but there are limits to what one country can do if inflation becomes a global problem my doing business are to. time to have a look at how the markets are fairing the south asian stock markets are flat this
