in india old geezer made ability to move the joint be able to be the great way to go to the ground appearing true to the torch was. told. to go. run to the colonel was her job as a retreat. thousands have gathered in

a zero demanding the resignation of prime minister binyamin netanyahu and protests which some observers say mirrored the demonstrations which have swept the arab world this year. the country is growing very short look at the numbers. another plan to resolve the u.s. debt crisis and prevent default falls apart and the republican controlled house of representatives reject the democrats failed as tuesday deadline looms even closer. and assessed veterans gathering in the stadium to celebrate the nancy part of course is outraged with anti-fascist activists saying allowing such events could lead to more outrages like the months no wait a week up. and

a very warm welcome for all of us here in moscow this is all she with me thanks for joining us nationwide protests have been go where social slogans are rapidly being replaced by the calls for the government to step down tens of thousands of demonstrators have taken to the streets in seven cities across the country the biggest rally is now underway in tel aviv and as paul is here reports he's hard not to notice the similarities between these events and the beginning of the egyptian uprising this year. well these easily a hundred and fifty thousand people here with the most popular chant being we demand a social justice a whole new way of speakers have been taking to the stage they've been calling on unity and message coming across very strongly is one by one people here can bring change a lot of criticism being leveled at the israeli prime minister bibi netanyahu in fact every time his name is mentioned he is why are you here tonight i'm here because it's just becoming a possible to live in this country anymore we work we give and we do and we keep on

giving and there's no end to this is oh this is our only hope we have to change those because we don't have any choice so would you say people have been inspired by the demonstrations taking place in their full hours or what is your sign saying who are going to go home gosselin's on us why do you want him to go home. alone because of the full distance how much of these demonstrations i mean inspired by the protests we saw taking place in arab world well i think there's a lot of influence of what happened in the ground and now syria lebannon and what you see in libya also there's a lot of influence of voting and that's when people understand i do have the power that they can they can organize but instead they don't need anymore their government to tell them what to do they can start telling the government what they want. to do you know they can they can start deciding for themselves to take the power back to you so they said he is the spirit of revolution here

a number of israeli populists on singers have also been taking to the stage and one song that was sung had the chorus and i'm translating this is the new middle east we created the storm the future it's up to us. and to live based activist annoy any more yao's says these really governments may try to engineer trouble not justify dispersing the crowds. the government sending people here to make provocation in order to find a reason to take this demonstration to a violent situation to give him a cause to clear this whole thing out we're not going to let them do that the us will continue that's for sure it took sixty years to people to actually get out of the couch and come and demonstrate for social issues we haven't done it before now what we have here it's a history this will be remembered in history because the israelis used to be. bad to the situation if the government won't listen to the sound of the people the

government will fall that's basically it we can take the government send him home. stuffs affair has one of the protest leaders things the israeli government distrust for to quell the protests may even try to begin a new war to divert attention from. well you can see it at the now is under big pressure here wasn't prepared for such kind of movement at the moment actually our biggest fear is that not only our being so afraid of what's going to happen we'll start a war somewhere. because that situation in israel where used to be part of the big war zone we're not allowed to talk about the way we live because we're always there pressure we always under threat and that's what people want to change now they want to say ok there are we are in a very very big problem with the countries around us and with the palestinians but still there are things that we have to solve and the situation was out of this road

also related to what happened here between us between our. and our correspondent in israel paul it's clear we just heard from her still be updating us throughout the night on developments in tel aviv and for the very latest you can always follow us on twitter at r.t. underscore combe where she is posting her comments and she's saying that thousands there are carrying signs saying game over to bibi go home bibi of course townsell benyamin netanyahu the prime minister of israel so keep up to date there are plenty of tweets and other news and stories so local to r.t. on disk or call. the latest eleventh tends to avert a u.s. default has failed with republicans rejection a cut that by democrats and washington remains indeed deadlock with a decision needed by tuesday to extend the nation's debt ceiling and allow the government for more money to keep growing and economist mark five all says all the proposals on the table is simply putting of the worst outcome.

less than two business days away from the worst self-imposed crisis of america's standing in the world and america's credit rating and at least a century it's a fairly emergency situation and we're deep into the eleventh bordering on the twelfth hour the debt reduction plan that president obama has endorsed at least rhetorically that comes out of harry reid and the democratic majority in the u.s. senate does make massive cuts in spending more than two point five trillion dollars over ten years so more than two hundred fifty billion dollars a year does no increase in revenue at all which was one of the early if i think somewhat unwise demands of the republicans in these negotiations and therefore is possible is actually does more to reduce the deficit and the debt in the united states over the next ten years than the rival republican house plan the cut cap and balance plan and so it's possible that that could be pushed through none of these plans make real efforts to reduce the long term problem of insufficient revenue and

these plans do reduce spending in ways that will be painful and for many communities in the united states transformative but it's worthy of note and somehow hasn't much been mentioned that not a single plan out there reduces the national debt they just change the speed by which it grows and in general cilento from the u.s. they try to channel believe the u.s. government that represents only the neat is equipped to deal with the overwhelming problem. the country is going bankrupt just look at the numbers the numbers don't lie the politicians let's look at the big picture first of all they devaluing the dollar and we've been saying it all along gold in the last month has gained one hundred fifteen dollars an ounce the dollars crashing against the swiss franc and other currencies you can see what's going on and let's look at the bigger picture what they're not talking about in all this deficit reduction hey how

about the military budget how about slashing foreign aid fifty seven billion dollars a year how about companies like general electric that made fourteen billion dollars last year paying no taxes look there's plenty of room out there to start raining this thing in and turning it around we do not have a representative form of government that's only for a little kiddies to believe we have a government that represents all of the very powerful and the very rich and that's all this is about letting them keeping their perks. and later in the program we hit the streets of think apple they got a lot of americans that will change that. makes me wonder how they ever get anything done in israel or in italy or any place really of multiparty i would get to cordy's to an employer's if you include the two goods and we can't get anything done sometimes it takes a while to. things really are that they keep on saying the american people want

this market we're just going to do there isn't anybody really what they really want . in a stand yes as a veterans and not as a holding that. they have gathered with the support of the local authorities on the other hand have hunted and. a nearby to have. we're here in this town a cinema for the annual gathering of the versions of the estate in waffen s.s. now the event has attracted widespread criticism of the years of being seen to glorify naziism the authorities also here in history of being heavily criticized for being seen not only to condone this type of event but for having made it increasingly difficult over the years for those who oppose this to come and host a rally now the anti fascist movement hold a rally very nearby at the same time as this is going on and as we said in recent

years we've seen people coming from latvia from is the way in year from finland they've been detained at the borders and not be able to enter and take part again today coming in a lot of the people who are involved in the anti fascist movement rally that's happening nearby have been stopped and questioned by police we know that the head of the anti fascist finnish organization was actually detained last night at the port of thailand and he wasn't allowed to leave the. coals or have remained true to the country and of course didn't want to get any kind of other opinions from their own opinion which is very much supporting the this is. now russia since two thousand and five has been introducing draft legislation to the u.s. condemning the glorification of nazi isn't we've seen a number of countries get on board with this but there have been some that haven't events like this that have got the government support herin to stay in year

certainly cause a lot of anger and at the very least is seen as being morally and politically insensitive and. can and from the finnish fascist commission that supporting such a parents may need to move tragedies similar to the mass killing rampage in norway by extremist. they're outrageous that the that is the young prime minister is not on the in the all but so forty eight and european union you still love him and we are one month to do it and you and you can all meet the only themselves all this is right extremism which is rising now you are not and you are oh well i can already create a good one one example of the. so i know meetings of nonce a veterans have become a new tradition in the baltic states boxed in logic there by a court decision international critics say it's an attempt to revive the history of world war two commemorating those who fought with hitler back in two thousand and

seven days tony authorities removed a monument to solve it soldiers who liberated the country from the nazi occupation a move which sparked violent protests and of course you can find out i'm old world war two history or now a new documentary channel which is. a collection of original accounts investigations and other footage from the times brings you the stories of the bloodiest conflicts in pastry and the suffering of those who lived and died through it so local to r.t.d. daughter on t.v. dot com to find our.

little journalism a lot of p.r. there the frequent findings of recent media surveys in the u.s. as newspapers across the country close the p.r. machine is rushing to fill the vacuum christine has been finding out what it may mean for american society. it is the end of the personality the fall of the senate intelligence of. newspapers like the seattle post intelligencer the rocky mountain news and hundreds more have now become relics from the past. slash budgets have stopped the presses at newsrooms nationwide. and nast layoffs throughout media have meant far fewer journalists to investigate policy and

procedure who are losing a sense of accountability in government in business in all our. life lives if we lose journalists who aren't asking questions about what's going on the numbers particularly dramatic with newspapers where revenue has been cut nearly in half while the journalism industry is shrinking the public relations industry is expanding at one time a one to one ratio between p.r. employees and journalists today that ratio is four to one with p.r. revenues jumping from three point five billion to eight point seven billion dollars journalists are simply overwhelmed by folks who are trying to spin them or trying to create their own story you have the public relations folks the spin doctors if you will driving the news cycle john nichols along with robert mckee has me wrote a book about it the death and life of american journalism in

a sense we are becoming one of the most propagandized countries in the world short staffed news stations often use company video news releases or vienne ours like this one if you have x. about tensors or the first or been filled up before the age of p.r. to skies as news the new treatment is called mimics press releases also often read on the air or posted on the web before any fact checking is done with the focus often on getting it first rather than getting it right good evening everybody breaking news tonight but we are cutting into our program with some breaking news where corporate and government p.r. departments are filled with former journalists who know how to sell their message they understood how media word what. reporters saw it was a good story as opposed to hype butch ward worked for nearly twenty years as a journalist with the philadelphia inquirer but after layoffs he left to work for

health insurer independent blue cross before returning to work as a journalist not revolving door between the press and p.r. the press and governor. it's causing real concern about what the long term effects could be if the influx of spin doctors take over the message machine completely where there is very little journalism be done in an awfully lot of spin you create some dangerous circumstances for citizenry for democracy itself go straight to questions white house spokesman jay carney worked for twenty years as a journalist for time magazine now he's president obama's spokes person former broadcaster and columnist tony snow went on to serve as spokesperson for president bush and jamie rubin went from the state department under president clinton to executive editor at bloomberg news so common such as a common practice and no one no one is questioning anymore in a time when how can flag are often one in the same and the spin machine works

overtime as the printing presses come to a halt the question becomes can a meaningful force of state actually survive. in washington christine r.t. . and full coverage of our top stories are always available twenty four seven at home and always a wide variety of content with it more like these stories it's a period of robin hood arrives in central russia instead of bubbling at the bread line thieves leads them money and those sanctions should use the money to help the town and. an amazing tale of love and fidelity and male swan has managed to catch his own young enough test trade held them up at all and if things go far that success and of course all our other news.

well radical recent legislation in india to provide free and compulsory education for all children between six and fourteen has been welcomed by educationalist but the country's social divisions are getting in the way with some not wanting integration of children from different backgrounds in the classroom. reports. it's dawn in india's capital city of new delhi an eight year old cushy just wall is getting ready for school while there are nearly two hundred million elementary school children like cushy in india only half that number ever complete the eighth grade most end up leaving school to help their parents with domestic work or to get a job to bring in some extra money maybe i haven't studied much that's why i want to educate my children after growing pressure to address the educational disparities in india the government passed an act making it mandatory for all

children between the ages of six and fourteen to get a free education it even requires elite private schools with tuitions nearing five hundred dollars per month to grant a quarter of their seats to students from disadvantaged backgrounds like cushy today there are just as many schools where students have to pay a choice unlike this one as there are free schools that are funded by the government according to the act it's up to the parents to decide where they mend their names to school that means a student like course she can attend an elite private school if she enters then wins the lottery and gets into the twenty five percent quota it also means that if government workers are able to identify and successfully in a row she is insist that are attending not just schools like the ones pushing attendance now could get overcrowded but the idea of free schooling in india has its opponents while the teachers want to see their students succeed they believe that integrating indian children from a lower class into a private school would not be practical. these elite schools have

a very high standard only juden whose parents are educated can study in schools like these schools want to maintain their high standards and reputation. it's a position supported by the well off members of indian society the school is not meant for them. it's meant for. the good miller did. good on his view. able to is a what they were there. were bringing him in that sort of women who i mean so he would have trouble getting assimilated in spite of the mixed reception the integration model received for children like cushy education is simply about accomplishing her dreams i want to study to the twelfth grade ten become a teacher. but it's a dream that may just fall through the gap of india's socio economic divide. preassure either r t new delhi india. and returning to one of the top stories the

u.s. debt ceiling deadlock with d. day fast approaching on tuesday and our resident reporter a new york laurie hoffman it has been finding out well the views on the streets of the big apple and a people feel financial doomsday is around the corner. with the looming debt crisis the u.s. is watching the clock tick down to an economic armageddon what does that even mean that this week let's talk about that they keep setting dates over and over again and nothing happened just the negotiation process i think so it's idle threat. i believe so do you expect more from the people you like. neither party is going to let this actually happen where they would let it expire and then the united states would go into default i don't think that's going to happen i think that's a bluff but i think what actually is at hand is for real and they're they're using it as leverage to push their respective issues but i think americans if i'm

speaking for myself as an american are sick of it or they did represent a few boards that they think that they were representing but i don't i think they keep on saying the american people want this market want this but i don't think anybody really what they really want what do you want i would like compromise right now the drama right now is largely contrived there is a debt crisis but will make it through and you know will pay the bills and things will be fine so all this drama i think is just making people crazy why are they doing that now i mean we raise the debt ceiling every year why is this drama unfolding right now well it's largely political because the upcoming election you know it's a good thing it's finally happening i think the people are speaking up. and hopefully will get our way but sometimes it takes a while to bad things really are i mean nobody is given any ground of so you know you log before for many many years and this is absolutely truly amazing and makes me wonder how they ever get anything done in israel or in italy or any place where

they have multi parties i mean we go to parties to an airport if you include the two guys and we can't get anything done it's utterly embarrassing this will be ashamed of themselves no matter what happens with the u.s. debt crisis the bottom line is we're. a lot more posturing from all the politicians involved it's. more stories from across the world we're covering for you at least two people are believed to have been killed by syrian troops opening fire on protesters the deaths come a day after tens of thousands of demonstrators took to the streets against their rule of president assad human rights groups say twenty two have now died since friday in the latest crackdown by security forces activists estimate over eighteen hundred demonstrators have been killed by security forces since nationwide protests began in march. nato commanders say they've destroyed three t.v. stars lined broadcasting dishes near the libyan capital tripoli they are tight was

said to have been carried out in accordance with the u.n. resolution to protect people from government oppression through the media however it's failed to knock libyan state television off the air and it's now been four months since nato military campaign began the libyan government claims hundreds of civilians have been killed in the air strikes. and iraq you must escape route hundreds on board a plane which of a short runway and broke into a honor all one hundred sixty three people on board the boeing seven three seven survived although some injuries were reported the accident is being blamed on the brain meanwhile the airport remains closed leaving hundreds of passengers stranded and delayed dozens of flights. and staying with aviation pilots of small planes in russia have long been grounded by unimaginable amounts of paperwork but a recently adopted law hopes to clear the runway for more frequent flights however many obstacles remain before the golden age for russia's small aviation and as dan

has but it's explained. dozens of pilots winging their way across russia for the second annual qubani air show for most small aircraft enthusiastic supporter fictions to meet other pilots and to enjoy the beautiful southern scenery though it took us almost eight hours to get there the views with fantastic in november last year russia docked at a new low for small aircraft pilots it sounds very promising abolishing much of the preflight paperwork letting the pilots use new airfields and generally adopting international flight rules it's a dream for any plane owner in russia however not all of the old restrictions were lifted back in the soviet times you actually had to have all this paperwork with you during the flight now the rules have changed but there are still some third and sometimes even absurd requirements for the pilots of small planes for instance even if the pilot and the mechanic in the same berth and you know have the main plane

ridden would come in they phone from one to another the new regulations allow the so-called notification mode instead of asking for permission for takeoff from the authorities in theory the pilots can now use the internet for air traffic control of their plans but in reality it rarely works according as you can see there are many forbidden no restricted zones around moscow so it's impossible for us to use notification mode anywhere within a two hundred kilometer radius of the capital even with the new law dozens of government organisations issue all sorts of contradictory instructions for pilots it's a major disincentive for pilots to make the effort to take to the skies and that means that russia is missing out on the potential pot of gold will some countries like the u.s. get billions of dollars from small aircraft fees and taxes russia doesn't get a cent. of the current regulations are in chaos and in that mess we're losing around five hundred billion rubles annually if you go. however many pilots like the

team that worked on that this year school air show are up to mystic about fighting the real chrissy from all of that when you watch the mile and the new year was just the first in any step the rest of the goods ahead of us but eventually we will learn how to fly again through russia's small aviation enthusiasts feel that broke receive has served only to clip their weeks no hopes are high of seeing blue sky on the horizon. or to be crossing the region. wow those north soaring high and there over the next half hour or so here on our t.v. taken this poor decade got incredible pictures of a russian two time olympic champion conquering almost five need to. sit and stay chained to you for the latest edition of mascot exploring the wonders of st petersburg so stay with us here on our team talking to you live from the russian.
