for the e.u. struggling to keep the euro afloat with bailouts for portugal and greece unemployment hit spain looks to be next in line for a costly rescue package. colonel gadhafi becomes a legitimate target for a nato air strike as international prosecutors prepare to charge libyan leaders with war crimes. and blood strain birthday on the anniversary of israel's relation jewish troops unleashed our con air of protesters killing sixteen and wounding dozens.

this is are you coming to live from moscow honoring the joshua welcome the latest efforts to prevent a eurozone members and a single currency falling into the financial abas began later european ministers will need to discuss the effectiveness of bailouts for portugal and greece concerns have been raised that the measures are not working in greens while portugal's probably economies desperate for a seventy eight billion euro rescue package across the border in spain violent for protest against the staring cuts broke out as a country struggles to deal with record high unemployment are sisera first reports and three could be next in line for an e.u. handout. greece. and now portugal as the euro things bailouts go the number there are now serious concerns that spain could be. the next to topple. playtest is throughout europe i can bring

to a place even more taxpayers' money being plowed into rescuing others. that if i had done that on the street and they. think that. that is the government. i don't think that my banks about it believe that with forty three percent of under twenty five that is what i did let's have a labor market focusing this side of the thing i think that this is going to be. ok here is a problem is once enough there is now talk of greece defaulting on its like even potentially exiting the year i gather and portugal's recent bailout is reported to be around seventy eight. spain is the usain bolt largest economy

the different challenge altogether if it fails. if the situation happens that the markets would not manage it buying out of speed's debts is the most catastrophic scenario for the e.u. what will the e.u. do i think in many experts share my opinion that the e.u. will do the utmost to avoid the scenario with any cost because spain is too big to fail so. the big question now is just how much longer can the usa continued bankrolling pace going bust as the spiraling debt crisis continues to escalate there is a ministers is struggling to maintain a united front. to financial survival for such countries of spain and seriously of course in danger here of this really hearing of two currencies here and a strong group of countries using your and the rest of. the european commission will take time to think over the. decision for the. establishment which would you

think continue the faith out speculation will be the next one seeds off her hand out this problem is continuing great i did not portugal the possibility of spain becoming the next thing country that remains a real threat and right now your kid i do know the reality. of the so far. they're. good friends. but tough in resolving the european debt crisis have been thrown into disarray after the head of the international monetary fund was charged with sexual assault strauss kahn was arrested in new york on accusations of committing a criminal sexual act attempted rape and unlawful imprisonment of a hotel mate he's due to appear in court monday after forensic tests are carried out and will plead not guilty and marriott former french finance minister is

a front runner to beat because us are busy at the next french presidential election but french politics expert. says his hopes of landing the top job are now effectively over. he wasn't going to announce his candidacy for the clinton twelve presidential elections and i think these allegations will come as a huge blow for french socialists who really saw him as the great hope to succeed president sarkozy in next year's presidential elections and i don't think at this stage of the next course kind of world even think of running for president because it will prove extremely difficult to juggle i think ations of sexual assault. and rape and with a presidential campaign i think a president sarkozy is an obvious candidate to benefit from from the scandal although he's very low in the poll of the moment the lowest. the lowest rate in

fact for any french president in the history of the fifth republic but i think this will benefit hugely i say he will be able to hope that she will you know he will reassure him give him more confidence to tackle the presidential elections. with much more strength than the current situation for him over memory can gather their latest updates on developments in europe on our facebook and twitter pages and you also find more on our developing stories as well as photos videos and polls make sure you take a look next town you're online. well

there are calls from within the nato led coalition to step up the bombing campaign against the libyan regime and possibly even kill colonel gadhafi the leader is clinging to power despite nearly two months of grueling airstrikes bertha's military campaign failing to topple gadhafi and wants to hit more targets to end his rule general sir david richards insists killing off the in an air strike will be within the rules coalition officials have previously denied targeting him personally and all this comes as international prosecutors prepare to bring charges of war crimes against libya's leaders political analyst stephen lemmon says that often is slated for removal because he got in the way of the west's. absolutely so get rid of them they want regime change it is in the nothing to do with humanitarian concerns it's all about an imperial exploitation of another country

there are many reasons for wanting to get rid of gadhafi exploiting would be a resource it was a getting rid of gadhafi control it is own money with his own central bank the central bank of libya now there's a simple way of being the western bankers control libyan money you know he controlled libya's oil no control abuse water you know the giant apple cookie the sands of libya because he made this a little water pollute the people he why do you want to do trade oil in libya and he wanted african nations the join with him you know libyan leader this was his kiss of death try that and you are absolutely right for regime change and that's what i think that was noble what offends. at least sixteen people have been killed and scores more injured by israeli troops opened fire near the lebanese syrian and

gaza borders demonstrators were attempting to cross into israel the clashes broke out on a day the anniversary of the founding of the jewish state ordinary palestinians lost their homes or work spell tear gas and rubber bullets were used in an attempt to stop his many protesters crossing into israel security officials said they sustained injuries as well prime minister benjamin netanyahu said he hoped calm would return but warned the country is determined to protect its territorial integrity political activists some iago shah day says protestors can stand against israeli forces. what has been happening since nineteen forty. we are having millions of refugees and they are not allowed to come back to their homes while you know that you have these soldiers jewish immigration from all over the world coming to the land that was promised to them by got two thousand years ago or a little bit more the people who were exposed during the war of one thousand forty eight sixty three years ago part of them still alive i'm not allowed to get back.

to is right is also don't want them to commemorate this got there is to see that happen to them in one thousand for the friends of the palestinians want to get back who is the last moment think i can think of with the israeli violence against this and the prevention of these people to get back for the last six to three years is a serious ghattas or for that most of the world unfortunately know enough about and they are believing that all the israelites or saying that the these people were throwing stones so what people might. throw sloan's on the borders what would happen to this huge forces of israel if people were still some stones on the water there. beyond the latest violence israel is also accused of blackmailing people in gaza to become collaborators policy and say they are trapped and are often only allowed to leave by agreeing to become informers for israeli intelligence reports.

the latest weapon of war targeting the sick and the helpless and denying them health care unless they become soldiers for the other side. i needed urgent surgery which couldn't be done here in gaza i had to get to jerusalem but when i arrived at the emirates border crossing i was arrested by the israeli security service they brought me into a building for questioning he kept me there from ten in the morning until six in the evening. the payoff was simple become an informant and get a permit to beat gaza for medical care in israel jordan or the palestinian with them or refuse and face the health risks and it's not casual operation but one which is highly planned and targeted involving senior israeli intelligence officers according to the man who says he was put under severe pressure to collaborate. in those long hours colonel nor she from the mossad trying to bargain with me he said that if i refused i would go blind and will be sent back to gaza without permission

to get to jerusalem for i said. for some stories familiar to mind your own dozens of similar cases across his disc each month is organization physicians for human minds represent patients from gaza whose permits to leave for medical treatment have been delayed or rejected by israel he says ever since hamas took over gaza in two thousand and seven many of the roughly a thousand people who apply each month to leave gaza for health care outside are turned down sometimes. between. planning for medical care is the difference between life or death and people. do whatever they can in order to exit and position but unfortunately use this very sensitive situation to recruit people but the israeli government denies it's taking advantage of the situation and rushes the claims as nonsense people who have been refused entry for security reasons have to explain. and find

a reason why they weren't allowed in but let's be clear the numbers speak for themselves eighteen thousand gazans in two thousand and ten entered israel for medical treatment is the allegation that all eighteen thousand are working for israeli security it simply ludicrous palestinian informants potentially provide important information for the israeli army but spying for israel is seen as treason by palestinians and is punishable by death i must also accuses israel of using social networking sites like facebook to access the private information of gazans and masses the israeli army then blackmails those gazans innocently publish information about their friends and family on line as focus some are well he he refused to be swayed and paid the price. they said that she goes it because i'd rather be sick i'm blowing a cooperate with the israelis in the unofficial fight at home and took his idea as

gaza moves closer to egypt with full major from president hosni mubarak knowledge of the picture palestinians believe that a more nervous israel will be seeking new tactics to oppose them so that's why they think that the commitment of informers and invisible wiccan but often the most damaging of all to militant movements is likely to remain a top priority poised really intelligence. israel. also has for us our here in our team better safe than sorry taking our lives in your own hands russian inventors look at ways to cash in on and alternative ways to protect against potential disaster or whatever form it comes. as my neighbor daniel smith this is julian assange we're here to make a short presentation about that we can fix project. the first step in the for the day to get information out about the real world. through him.
