a before the second world war and within six years had been expelled and most of her family killed but the irony is she now wants a german passport. or money i want the german citizenship to help my children and grandchildren which might be shocking if it wasn't so common in israel today in the last decade some thirty thousand israelis have applied for you or killed citizenship a quarter of a million already have a second passport it's unlikely that any other country in the world has such a large percentage of new immigrants preparing to leave. the story because these are was a stubborn to become a shill for the. euro because the show. with you sleeping is. the right place in making the heart of tel aviv here you'll hear more english than hebrew and you'll be forgiven for thinking that if you're in the us and not the promised land most israelis here have a second passport many of them grew up

a broad or have a parent who came from another country. and i would never give them a canadian and probably would give up my israeli and american i wouldn't give up because. i want to be able to go there any time british passport or european passport is a doorway the opportunity is eight years ago the bar was blown up by a suicide bomber three people were killed and fifty injured the bar didn't close down but some say the rush for new passports heated up in the peak of the bombings and there was a feeling of insecurity so yes there was an increase in immigration and in the demand for passports and that demand has only grown in the last five years israel has been in two wars and many fear another is not far off and the government's policy of settlement expansion has only isolated the country internationally so it's no surprise is leading israeli journalist media navy where people are tired of living in a war zone. releasing its own creating all the. feel

for the comparing against anything and the payoff is a population that feels unsafe with one eye on europe. and damn a son has processed nearly five thousand applications for a second passport in the last ten years that works out at about forty passports a month and he's only one lawyer working in the field but of the truth in world war two. the one who are third world the one who got the. call the laotian knew that if you can go. that can help you move. out of danger zone then you do it every year more jews leave israel for europe and the states and then the other way around one in five or so if you choose has a really returned home and with no israeli palestinian peace talks on the horizon and growing israeli insecurity about the arab demonstrations on the doorstep this

so-called insurance passport is unlikely to lose popularity any time soon policy r t television good news for the economy is few and far between with layoffs austerity and a growing u.s. national debt some are stay optimistic though saying things could be worse as our resident on the streets of new york. all the latest data indicates the global economy is going limp are you personally affected this week let's talk about that have you felt the effects of a bad economy a better job of this economy is not get me a better job here desire to try to go to college and i can't because car my car gas is all expensive at school so expensive so it's money vicious cycle is really bad but i'm happy because brazil is growing like for me is good so is that kind of the

way it goes when some countries are hurting other countries can prosper more yeah greece is looking bad spain is looking bad i feel like we're on the right path so they're just exaggerating not in greece and spain no no i feel like the reports in the u.s. are i'm actually in the military so i feel it at all that's the only perk up our system one perk my job steady paycheck for five years yet i can't see the american military is going to go out of it if they do any time soon and i guess we have bigger problems to worry about the economy. but we have come back even more we sure we could take gracious you come to new york this. crucial british a first time in new york city today so that doesn't sound like you're hurting that it sounds like you're doing ok we have a lot of other things you think that we've seen the bottom of this crisis or are we headed for bread lines and even worse things that we've seen the bottom what is the bottom look like. well it was pretty bad during the great depression is

a bottom that we can compare it to i don't know if we'll get that bad but i don't think we're there yet so do you think we can fix it i'm a global level or do you think it's time countries started looking at themselves first i think we have to fix it on the global level but i think we reach country have to lower their their expectations of. the living standard i think we all had to go down whether or not even personally impacted the bottom line and the global economy apparently continues to fall flat. it was called the father of the bolshevik revolution and though highly debated his role in russia's history can't be ignored a little later we retrace let him in moscow. st leaders change the course of history and starting off here on red square next to
