7:05 pm
but the reality is that fifty percent of the new winton's are against multiculturalism as people here try to pick up the pieces and bring meaning to this twitter thing it will relations between communities some expect the crackdown by police on the e.u. growing full rights movement while others fear this will only fuel resentment against europe's muslims victims are beginning to piece together the shots at lloyd's but the experts warn this might not be the last such a tank as the perceived failure of a multicultural society grows though you see oslo earlier i spoke with a lot anderson a spokesman for the union of russian communities in sweden and a man who knew anders breivik personally he says the news came as a shock although he believes brave it was surrounded by things that could have influenced his actions. i could not imagine i. imagine. and not been brainwashed by the ego and especially

justin dart in a research fellow with a divine initiative says recent years have created the perfect environment for far right extremism to flourish. well this transnational zam of terrorism has been on the radar for some time the very real threat of the homegrown right wing extremist has been over law and within most western countries we have seen two things happening at the same time we've seen this type of ratcheting up of rhetoric anti immigration rhetoric this is happening to us and also western europe and there's also been this demise we can say of multiculturalism so there have been individuals that have more or less become quite quite self radicalized due to the violence and also due to the idea that there's just been an influx of immigration then compound these factors has also been the global economic crisis so you have the euro zone crisis and you also have how the global economic crisis impacted united states so
7:08 pm
there has been a general type of environment which has encouraged individuals to take out their frustrations newly arrived immigrants so i think that this is something that is actually very very very very important for western policymakers to look at so i think that in the coming years we're going to see more of this right wing extremism and a lot of the attacks in norway has imposed stricter border controls then mark at the same thing a little more than two weeks ago a move strongly criticized by other e.u. members alexander salad and from moscow state humanitarian university says there are signs that a united europe may be fallen apart. pretty european project is collapsing slowly collapsing you know there are lots of money. for the effort and some countries have a cancer rates old is they have to. back their research and that has controlled
7:09 pm
immigration and that's. only tells us that the european project lacks the you know kind of fights how it's the who want it and it should be shared by the people living in the people house and be ready to actually lose people they have to say no to this coming to the country it's the government's role this country is how to put it through the referendum actually talk to the people rather than just saying we have always had band days around that every stakeholder has to have a say in it not just the citizens of the country not just the migrants because you see there is a contradiction where you can say this for us and seize alam is cold as supposedly to the information shape body we know weight and at the same time there is an islamized again is asian that. they think it's a responsibility goal for the blast in the way so you see there is a contradiction

7:15 pm
a six hundred million dollars per year deficit adding three trillion dollars us. eric cantor for all those bush's wars and for that weapons for the tax cuts now these guys don't want to be that built they're trying to go to. their the epitaph cuts for the rich. or somehow the compromise means that these. dollars will be paid for by eliminating benefits who are the working class it's not our debt i didn't borrow the money i didn't buy or begin your class submarine because to be a billion a piece well short of thirty six i didn't get any glimmer of my amazon to my door i didn't encourage these debts the american people the elderly people on social security didn't encourage it gets veterans receiving benefits of veterans benefits didn't increase the debt it was the result of bush's wars pushes tax cuts while spending for these programs what we need to do is increase spending for lower

income people for the elderly because they'll spend it and get us out of this depression we're in a depression you can't save your way out of a depression the problem is that people are not spending major banks are sitting on a trillion dollars in in cash and not lending it out our problem is the lack of spending in the united states a lack of demand a lack of capital being given out we're building it and it has nothing to do parties resident on the streets of new york worry her finesse asked people in the big apple whether they're ready to pay more taxes to save the economy. would you be willing to pay more in taxes to save your government from bankruptcy this week let's talk about that yeah definitely with pay mark and you know they're spending. billions rather spend it on defense. or
7:17 pm
education. so do you trust your government to spend it correctly i don't trust any of the parties in our country a little bit how much is a little but. few percentage points more and that's about it that's about it since fifty percent of the american public does not pay a nickel i would have a problem i believe everybody even if it's a dollar fifty everybody should be in this shared sacrifice it all depends on how much work you you know if i'm working hard and i make you my good my fair share you know why they want to get taken away from me when people who you know don't. you know you just spend a lot more money in taxes so that more people have my service that kid you have to pay for people who aren't working as hard as you yeah yeah. yeah ok with that.
7:18 pm
yeah i think everybody should have it ok so i think it's ok because you pay too much taxes you know you think the energy from people who want to work so if you do much texas you have a back up. like in the states that are better government to spend all the money and praise you wars in iraq and afghanistan. so i would say first of the stupid wars and there you don't need a tax increase and matter how you feel about taxes the bottom line is you're probably always going to have to pay them but it's up to your government to use those funds well. recovery efforts continue on russia's volga river following the country's worst ever boating disaster the sunken pleasure cruiser the bog area has been towed to shallow waters next step is to pump water from the hole to make direct light enough to lift exports are eager to examine the ship to find out exactly why it sank two

7:23 pm
a technical basis yes they nato intervention and indiscriminate bombing in libya could be both the united states and major operation but technicalities aside it is not just a turn a half wars for the united states in reality if not on the ground at least in the air over a levy a very bombing is one hundred percent nato operation timing of nato operation against libya demonstrated not only of the lack of trust between the united states and pakistan and have been leadership it is also indicative of a huge credibility gap going to be in june you lie and united states of america and its european nato partners coming up this hour i'll go and i'll speak with alexis crow from the u.k.'s royal institute of international affairs about nato's role in the libyan conflict here's a sneak peak. if you look in the international community in the wider international
7:24 pm
community sometimes if you look at meters in games with other countries for example afghanistan. and iraq it's given me to name it's means that the u.k. and the u.s. are coming to see regime change sensibly and so because of that bad name to begin with france and britain and the u.s. did not explicitly did not use the words we seem change and of course there's several it's one of. it's called eliot cohen. from america and he said that the use of airpower exclusive to carry out a political solution is equivalent to modern courtship it offers immediate satisfaction without little guaranteed all commitments and so in that sense is a policy of what robert p. calls decapitation decapitation policy lou taking the head off of a regime does little to change anything political the ground as we've seen clearly seen in afghanistan with the removal of the taliban and so we've clearly seen with
7:25 pm
the removal of saddam hussein so it's not a policy that works regime change. however i would say that therefore it wasn't on the cards to begin with in that very overt sense but of course it had to be because you if you're thinking of stalking him killing his citizens you obviously have to stop him. from being in power in some sense i would say that in libya either we shouldn't gone in a tall. we should have done something like this which of course is not the nature of coalition fighting. putting more on line for you what are the long the stories you'll find there today a georgian of the hour the first convicted of spying for russia relieved with colleagues convinced their confessions were coworkers find out why the opposition believes the case had nothing to do with justice from the start. and for in the
