this growing economies needs the warning of a currency wars they agree on neutral help the g twenty in south korea. and russia says the world wide web should be governed globally take to soar on cyber threats. but are you watching r.t. live from moscow welcome to the program two israeli soldiers are awaiting sentencing after being convicted of using a palestinian child as a human shield during the gaza war israel reinforced a ban on involving civilians five years ago but as poor sphere reports palestinians believe troops continue to risk innocent lives in war maneuvers measured robber was

just nine years old when soldiers grabbed him and made him check for bombs. i was just sitting here is really soldiers took me over there there were two bags and he told me to open them but i didn't know how to do it. he was terrified of the abandoned briefcases which the soldiers thought could be booby trapped and his fighting family forced to watch one of us a video one of them put his hand on my son shoulder and made him go into the toilet cubicle i heard a few shots fired soon afterwards i felt like i was dying my little daughter he was with me kept saying they killed him. and yet it was five years ago that israel's supreme court made the law crystal clear human shielding is an absolute absolute no no injuring civilians deliberately is absolutely prohibited but the reality on the ground is still very different you had a show spent his army years in the palestinian territories he knew the supreme

court's ruling but watched his sergeant ignore it so did he and the soldiers serving under him so what we did is we just bumped into a house nearby house we grabbed one of the kids we took him with us put him in the front of the patrol you just walk your patrol in the village with your kid and then no one for a start one hundred sixty complaints were filed about the way soldiers behaved in the gaza war two years ago but only forty seven criminal investigations were ever carried out most of them have since been closed i think that to ask a combat soldier and serve in the occupied territories or use palestinians as human shield is like to ask you to drink coffee in the morning but israeli lawyers say convicting the two soldiers is to the i.d.f. scripts there are always soldiers who step out of line that that's part and parcel unfortunately of bringing a military operation to say that as a general phenomenon idea of soldiers you use human shields that's absurd for much of the family they take comfort they finally be getting justice even if it's only

against low ranking soldiers and not the commanders they accuse of allowing human shields behind the laws back here r.t. jerusalem. fears that countries could use their currencies as a weapon to drag themselves out of recession have been allayed finance ministers from the world's twenty biggest economies have agreed they won't valuate to drive up their competitive edge spent two days in south korea tackling global financial balances other agreements included giving international a bigger role in supervising exchange rates growing economic tension between. and the u.s. also came up with clues to holding its currency down while the u.s. was criticized for having a loose monetary policy on balance the south korea meeting is considered that temperature truce is lower in this two reports some suspect the u.s. lining up its economic artillery. the united states has

waged well known wars in afghanistan. and in iraq. but some argue it's also waging a lesser known battle. that's just as costly and much larger scale the united states leading financial world war two of train foreign retailers. and especially to make other economies pay tribute to a war being fought not with force but with credit in this war us dollars are the bullets and they are cheap ammunition because the us federal reserve has been printing and pumping billions upon billions of them into the economy federal reserve out of balance sheet of about eight hundred fifty billion dollars and that shot up to two point one trillion dollars more than one point five trillion dollars spent buying bonds and home mortgages from banks in the last two years to try to prop up the u.s. economy this policy called quantitative easing is supposed to stimulate the economy

lowering interest rates and enabling banks to lend more but it hasn't exactly helped the average american for households in trouble has been very difficult and remains very very difficult to get any access to any money so the quoted prices are low but if nobody will make a loan to you it doesn't really matter very much here is where it does matter if the united states sets interest rates very low and tries to open up large routes to lending that american corporations in america investors take money borrow money and then they go all over the world and buy things and buy they are businesses and investors from the world's largest economy are firing off rounds whether it's on real estate in china or farmland in australia the money leaves the u.s. because low interest rates mean investors aren't getting much return on assets at home this puts inflationary pressure on other countries and you've seen brazil react to that you've seen china react to that you. seen south korea react to that

you've seen lots of reactions around the world and this does tend to push up prices of assets that people buy so why does this matter for you why should you care well let's talk about the things speculators or investors like to buy things like soft commodities wheat sugar soybeans those affect your food prices i'll take the sold investors for lots of money into soft commodities i mean global food prices your food prices go up like happened in two thousand and seven and two thousand and eight. but if they all put their money into oil the price of energy for most of the world that consumes it goes up too. and when you do us are acting like an a.t.m. for the world pumping cash into the economy trillions of dollars this is the scenario you're helping to create. and pushing down the value of the u.s. dollar of the international reserve currency while pushing up the value of other currencies it may be creating the very scenario that prompts headlines like this

there is word today about a race to the bottom what i comes to courage is the currency wars going on in the developed economies already and we're hearing an outcry from the developing countries because those are the hottest markets for foreign investment now countries like brazil feeling the effect are deeply concerned that you are exporting. your consumption demand to was. using beggar thy neighbor policies which you are ultimately dealing. from are making our economy worse. but countries affected by the flood of u.s. dollars are now taking steps to protect their own currencies and their exports from getting more expensive we believe it's very important yet u.s. policymakers are rattling their sabers at the i.m.f. and g twenty meetings they're calling for countries to let their currency is wrong . it's but with no mention of the declining dollar there's no doubt leaders are.

very much in terms of power and. they want to keep it as the u.s. appears poised to fire off a new round of quantitative easing the rest of the world is fighting back instead of having this multipolar world led by the i.m.f. and the world trade organization with a very heavy influence for the u.s. government and the united states treasury we're seeing lots of governments going around the world cutting two party deals cutting deals to trade not in the reserve currency but in local currencies led by china brazil russia but stretching through asia latin america and eastern europe they're fighting back against the declining reserve currency which some are even calling the pariah currency and biting back against the u.s. is financial world war that in the end may prove a losing battle lauren mr r.t. new york. coming up soon though we look at a problem which must come barry for much longer we hear it why environmental after

counts but it's headmaster insists that all this is used alongside more traditional means of educating he also believes his school is not a rarity in russia but i think it's part of a growing trend but what's important is to use this technology properly to hold the learning process i think computers in schools will become more widespread but it's crucial to understand no computer could have a substitute teacher. as the question of who should regulate how use of the internet rumbles on it's reaching our dependence on it continues to grow saturday nights in moscow may never be the same again alice a bit arty ask. while i will have more russians plans on getting more global governance for the internet when we hear from the country's communications minister in about twenty minutes time. press war stories and analysis head to lottery dot com here's some of what we're covering for you online right now the normally more

away it's a direct violation of the law if i get to go through i could get three of my trash right out of the window under the law dumps can not be closer than five hundred meters from a residential area but unfortunately this and many other rules on the disposal are often trashed like here in the town of canal you off not much further away from the capital this is quite a typical picture of this area is used for garages but since some of them were built illegally they had to be dismantled but instead in their places these piles of rubbish have grown all around the area the deeper into the area the picture becomes even worse another closed waste york or is it the area is disputed between a town in a local forestry and they want to take responsibility for the mess environmental inspectors see their helpless even fining the officials didn't help since the biggest penalty is only around two hundred dollars each environmental consciousness

is very low people just don't care for meaning it's much easier to come and just down there trash it here and bureaucracy is making it even worse there is simply no one to clean this up but specialists say there is still a way to fix things. we have to get people interested and the best way to do it is by giving them money each bottle has to have a good return price who is ever going to throw out an empty bottle if they could get at least one third of their money back for it. perhaps the law increasing the return price for different packages me improve the situation at least partially but that me lead to new rule building the needed infrastructure to either recycle or resell used bottles moscow alone produces at least five and a half million tons of waste per year and less than fifteen percent is recycled a picture hard to believe in many western countries where from a young age people are taught how to recycle you what is going to already moscow.
