actually the real radiation that was being emitted from the address also by its. allies recently that already had the reactors experience meltdown in the very recent stages and you did acknowledge the disaster and the possible not true what's being done will you will it work and no doubt it actually through the inner containment vessels and into the average aligning. concerns about not of radiation in the area being more than what i was at period. and also the concern about the contaminated water that was you know right as workers are in there right now as we speak still trying to clean up three months later now because they had to predict if i got a perfect reflector on it. and then this hospital a few hundred people were just getting my mind watching all of this still doubt very interesting day here in tokyo. when you actually can see it in the

than originally expected and we're just in. the receiver to actually go to the christian area to get its pushes down and we're going to believe the answer is. we have to think and pray. some of the people back in their home. ok sean i do keep us updated as best you can sean thomas reporting on the ground there from angry scenes in turkey thank you. you know without still ahead this hour an unlikely alliance. you know how orthodox jews in new york are joining the chorus of palestinians mourning and then the state of israel. join our close up to my journey to one of the most beautiful locations and russia's caucasus mysteriously. died. tragically in secrecy and invite only one meeting of the world's political and

financial elite is underway in switzerland the annual gathering of the building has attracted strong protest conspiracy theories. and it has been the following the meeting. the exclusive ski resort of sam rich jude is perfect bill the territory season and crucially practically deserted there are two heights of activity in town though one is the luxury hotel where around one hundred thirty of the world's most influential politicians businessmen so i'll be taking behind closed doors and the other in a much cheaper hotel where conservative activists are determined to break that wall of secrecy down they've set up what they believe is the world's first alternative media center they've worked for mainstream outlets too but they're not here just not enough. western media not enough from the u.k.'s it's quite appalling news

agency is just really sad names of this year's attendees and on the list is the chancellor of the exchequer george osborne i would have thought that makes it use other bills about regulars include david rockefeller the editor in chief of the economist magazine the greek finance minister and the president of the world bank all rumored to be here this year unlike another regular former i.m.f. chief dominique strauss kahn on bail in new york for alleged sex attack there has been interest from the swiss national press this year builder burke which is widely believed to support big government and economic consolidation runs entirely contrary to the swiss idea of independence local government and neutrality manfred petritsch has run a successful campaign to batter effect playing on the reported ten million euro taxpayer bill for securing this spanish built about except that

a private meeting because that's what they call themselves a private meeting the security has to be paid by the taxpayer and i think a lot of people understand that specially when the government and we don't have money for this or that and here we go and it costs a lot of money to secure this private meeting of these people the agenda is secret along with everything else but build about is a believed to be deciding on who should replace their friend t.s.k. at the top of the i.m.f. that was so concentrating on how to save the euro which was leaked agendas show their brainchild we don't want to be. but these are all the things that they actually created is a construct of. the euro is a construct of the bill because this bill the bird is different from the next one security is not slow it. the first starts and there's no kilometer wide cordon

around the hotel but secrecy still dominates with protesters saying even this with government is attending every year though there are more and more activists increasing media attention they're saying if you told us what was going on we wouldn't have to speculate. on the bills about meeting all artes twenty feet that she tweets italian member of parliament was assumed to be trying to sneak into the hotel or the conference is taking place closer to forty underscore. some political interest. the conflict between israelis and palestinians in the middle east still shows the sign of a peaceful resolution with your. jews devoted to the palestinian struggle. to discover that they believe an end to the state of israel is the only solution.

every rally. every demonstration. every opportunity to voice opposition. that is. a particular course of orthodox jews joins forces with a loud choir of palestinian supporters. the collective voice is otherwise known as new tory carter all true traditional jews are religiously opposed to the creation and existence of israel then it's like it was it is it has latched itself to was a terrible painful movement of zionism which is the ideology behind the state of israel in its hijab the story is forbidden according to rabbi dovid weiss jews were exiled from the land of israel because of their sins a car to worshippers believe restoration of the land should only happen with the

area four hundred years ago meanwhile day to day life continues alongside and they just of the past. three hours drive through a dangerous sneaking road here in the mountains. and talk to troops but it's worth it there are a lot of different bludgeons and mess around this area in the past locals try to avoid going to the city of that they say anyone who dares to get in will never get out alive and even now there are hardly any tourists around this place which might be more to the difficulty of getting here rather than any death curse. indeed times of the plague many people with no one love to worry them would come to the crypt and wait for the band's first mansion about the city of the dance to the beginning of the fourteenth century the ancestors of a society and sounds and down on the five mountain ridges but the land was so
