in india old caesar made a big move to join me that shows the number of villains the great great it's the grand imperial trilogy the tallest was to school until you can a little bit you know saddam did to go in. the colonel was which was used to retreat. cause if you'll take the word choose debut as a default deadline and possible catastrophic economic consequences lawmakers continued to be called up until until preoccupied with part of what is called good friendship over extending america's credit limits more details of your. own in the midst pilot error of course last year's presidential plane crash that killed president lech kaczynski and scores of top officials but also the patrol the cold so person part of the blame on russia just hide criticism from ideational.

hundred fifty thousand anti-government protesters flood streets across israel demanding prime minister netanyahu step down but some say the arab spring has now spread to israel. and a very warm welcome to the program this is all season cleaver of you i mean i shook my valentine story now the political game of chicken as china has put it has continued in washington as the country heads towards a disaster as a default for weeks now lawmakers have been struggling to reach a compromise deal to raise the u.s. debt limit and there's all season marina and i reports with just hours left to august second deadline calls intensified for politicians on capitol hill to come be partisan bickering and just do their job. well what we hear and what we see are two different things in terms of what is happening in washington regarding this debt

deal it's been dramatic there's been a lot of political posturing taking place but no deal as of yet sunday morning we did see us republican leaders take to all the mainstream media saying that a deal is close shortly after we saw u.s. democratic leaders say that there is no final agreement later on about four hours after that there was a vote in the senate where senator harry reid's plan for this debt deal with actually voted down it only received fifty votes and it needed sixty two pounds that was a democratic plan at this point what we know is that the white house is holding closed door meetings with republican congressional leaders but there is a lot of division that still takes please what is being reported is that the republicans and democrats are trying to agree on a deal that would raise the debt limit in two stages that would get that would

get the u.s. through the two thousand and twelve elections and that amount would be anywhere between two and three trillion dollars and at the same time they're trying to come to an agreement that where they would cart the u.s. deficit by three trillion dollars over the next ten years the sticking point here is where to cut this spending the republicans do not want any taxes raised the democrats do not want programs such as social security medicare and medicaid to be touched so at this point what both parties are trying to come in agreement come to an agreement on are is where to cut three trillion dollars over the next decade the overall climate within the u.s. it is a climate of frustration americans are losing out it is the americans that are going to take the brunt of this burden and overall it's the u.s. law. makers it's those that are taking the opportunity to get to chew mudslinging

to not come to a compromise and as a result of that there's been a block cloud of uncertainty uncertainty hanging over the u.s. overall foreign investors are very concerned the u.s. is the biggest lender china is very concerned about the fiscal management of the united states the fact that there can't be a compromise or u.s. business owners are hesitating from hiring new workers because there is a lack of confidence in the leadership if the u.s. were to default on its loans this would mean a catastrophe for the u.s. economy it would trickle throughout the world and what it would mean in the u.s. is that interest rates would rise people would lose jobs it would be a replay of the two thousand and eight fiscal crisis so at this point i could tell you that the consensus is most of most americans is that their elected officials in the u.s. can not lead they could do a better job fighting and arguing then leading if they come to a compromise it will happen but it will happen at the last minute and some say that

so much damage has already been done to the reputation and the credibility of the u.s. economy. and kyra nonnative president of a new york based financial advisory service says u.s. lawmakers only have time for a last minute quick fix to that's unlikely to be effective if they don't. it's good that it's happening the way it's happening is not very good because we were three to six months ago in a position where we probably could have had a more substantial deal to solve the problems. of the country but the politics is there is no put us in a place where we're not going to have a ok type of compromise even if we get the most aggressive which is somewhat closer to four trillion we're only just been managing to bring down the debt level of the u.s. to about eighty percent level right now so right now we're just talking about slowing the rate celebration of the problem which is look it's better than nothing at least

if you can get something it won't get worse and worse but as far as it goes on a good trajectory we need something somewhere closer to the three to four trillion dollar over ten years range to even begin to address that turn to us is not the only the u.s. rather is not the only place trying to deal with financial crisis a massive debt think europe trying to get more and more countries into trouble with the fifteen concern over the economic stability of the eurozone on the eve of its problems not that. we should a bump egypt and greece from the euro zone long ago so they agree drain has started tough act to spain as the country prepares for that was the credit rating of the thank if i feel is over the new european deal for rescue the stable euro zone hard now work automatic intrinsically. also has admitted that the pilot error led to the polish presidential plane crash in western russia which killed than president lech kaczynski and scores of the country's top officials but the

government commission still a part of the blame on russian air controllers for that is our thin april last chair players have to reports now and how a national tragedy has become undertaken by politics. another day another blame game although very own probe into last year's presidential plane crash and smolensk all got confirmed the findings of russia's investigation that the crew was almost solely responsible for the tragedy. at this point there is an obstacle at tree that the aircraft collides with a fragment of the left wing is detached the aircraft begins their attention let me emphasize it's not that the tree was too high the aircraft had simply been at a location where it shouldn't have been there it seems the very things that got in the way of the plane are now getting in the way of warsaw taking full responsibility and trees are not the only thing rooted in poland failing to see eye to eye with moscow but. here's where the approach controller two thousand metres

away should have told the crew to start descending horizon command should have been issued exactly at this moment this shows that the landing zone controller was performing his duty in an encouraged way and these three such statements come as little surprise to experts with some of them saying acceptance of the responsibility would be impossible for the polish society they've been given the truth and the truth is unbearable they can't take it now i don't think that the polish investigators think they can pin the blame on anybody else but i do think that they are looking to pin some of the play on sunday else aviation experts echoed this opinion calling the swipes against the russian side and substantial some of your claims concerning the airport all controllers they have nothing to do with the crash i've been a pilot for over thirty years and i know a simple rule if you don't see the runway or its mikes of a decision height you have no other choice than to raise the landing gear and go to

your reserve airport the initial russian lead investigation was greeted by an avalanche of criticism from some movements in poland they expressed doubts about. the reliability of the report often based on anti russian sentiment and some experts say it is not pure emotion driving this with well thought tactics. and here i think we are now witnessing some political games to shift the blame from the polish sign of i was an explosion this commission and i was surprised to learn that the crew was chosen immediately before the flight such poor preparation for such a high profile flight publication of this report had been delayed for several months and was very much anticipated in poland it was meant to put a break through all speculation regarding the smolensk plane crash but instead it once again be used as a political tool experts say the timing of the publication is not quite sure this could be exploited also in the political electoral campaign because this should be

no longer than two months after being. parliamentary elections this report and all that issue but if you are terribly it will be. in the electoral campaign and the twin brother of the late president kaczynski was quick to prove this suggestion with a sharp round about the report. the prime minister to skate has no courage to take up the responsibility for the plane crash and has shuffled it off under his staff nevertheless he is responsible for all the games he played with the russians he's responsible that the poles were not conducting or even participating in the investigation he's responsible for not defending polish interests imposed on or your national forum which will get to the bottom of this case as this is what we owe to those who died while the society is still deciding whether to admit the playful responsibility which comes with a report experts are speculating whether this is

a fair and objective investigation or an attempt to please all the players in the long lasting blame game. r.t. reporting from warsaw in poland. and for. a closer look at the timeline of the polish presidential plane crash visit our website. you'll find a transcript of the cockpit voice recorder providing a detailed insight is that a tragedy that unfolded so outside of home with the place to go. israel has become the latest middle east country to see nationwide antigovernment protests at its peak some one hundred fifty thousand people took to the streets on saturday after more than two weeks of rallies protesters are demanding that prime minister binyamin netanyahu steps down a lengthy undertakes sweeping economic reforms policy attended the biggest demonstration to love it. obviously i did in fifty thousand people here with the

most popular chant be we demand 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 israeli prime minister bibi netanyahu in fact if you try his name is mentioned he is why are you here tonight i'm here because it's just becoming passable to live in this country anymore we work we give our we give or take on getting well and there's no end to this is the jazz this is our only hope we have to change just because you don't have any other choice would you say people have been inspired by the demonstrations taking place there as well as or what is your sign saying. you guys are leaders on earth. why do you want him to go home. to go on to do the full distance and it should be salman stray sions mean inspired by the protests we saw taking place in arab world oh well i think there's

a lot of influence of what happened in a new ground and now syria lebanon iran and what you see in libya old saw a lot of influence of posing that when people understand i do have the power that they can they can organize but instead they don't need any more did government to go don't want to do they can start telling their government what they want. to do you know they can they can start deciding for themselves to go back to what they said is the spirit of revolution here a number of israeli populists are singers have also been taking to the stage and like some never sung you had a chorus of i'm translating this is the new middle east we've created a storm the future is the trust. between forty five and one hundred people have been killed in syria by government forces storming the city of hama according to local human rights groups u.s. president obama has vowed to increase pressure on the regime after this fresh round

of violence but on the guitar president of the arab association says western promises alone bring positive results. president obama says what he's saying everybody in syria and other world will be viewed by. the rest of the afghanistan situation all of these things and dreams are low and it doesn't have any cancer however i think the west can actually and the world can assist the syrian regime. policy why it's contact that's playing to them and the ways that they can move into this rather than just making statements and you. seem to be content then when you make these crazy statements well it's a great dream is let's the majority not. this is coming up later in the program as oppression waits spreads across japan sending the countries that already had

a great soaring is excited over radiation creeps the population falling marchers as quake and tsunami. but just prices raging in europe is claiming more and more economic sculpts spain's suffering recession and mass unemployment has now been put on review by the credit rating agency moody's and the international monetary fund has warned france that its credit rating could be slashed if it does not impose more spending cuts while the euro zone's biggest bailout recipient greece has been dealt another blow by one of europe's main creditors germany's finance minister has warned the you won't write a blank check to buy the bonds of failing countries in a move also intended to deter other troubled states from believing overleap is on the way to reckless boring and economics author patrick young says green should have been pushed out of the eurozone. this is typical of contagion we've been talking about it for weeks we have you know when you get some degree of illness and

it goes through the body ultimately you have to decide when to hit and the truth is we should have amputated greece from the euro zone long ago there are fundamental to huge problems going all the way through the euro zone and we don't have any leaders who are willing to give us a sustainable solution we've got the situation at the moment where provincial libraries in northern germany are being closed because the money isn't there because it's being used to fund people in the mediterranean i think german voters are going to get very angry about that very very soon and i actually think the political will is not there amongst the people to endlessly keep bailing out their saw their neighbors it's going to be a huge problem because ultimately the contagion is going to hit and i really do believe that after last week's events unfortunately we only inch closer to the idea of a tool called your real meltdown. europe's economic burden maybe a fraction the euro zone's the richest members but it's hurting the poorest hard and countries like risk being crushed under the weight of europe's debt crisis.

reports now rather membership of the euro club of failing to live up to its promise . they say that charity starts at home also vacuum may be one of the poorest countries but with pressure from the e.u. to participate in the second bailout their money could soon be going to greece. i'll tell you what joining the euro zone brought responsibilities but not benefits in fact slovakian pensions are significantly lower than days increase people here at this hey michel to tell us they barely cover their costs with the money they receive you have to. deal with homelessness we have to reform our. health care system this one never enough money. back in two thousand and nine when slovakia's during the year is a it was such high hopes it was also kind of prestige to be the first one among.

public policy or for the one from central europe to be you know in israel clock back the year easing it seems isn't all it was cracked up simply as a drawing to a of the and there was. of one pound three. of just this wrong country in may two thousand there and the rules changed dramatically days left that every year you gangly well now be breathing a sigh of relief if that neighboring not only here easing countries have felt the benefits slave actual peers have been heading to their checkout in peace to escape the year a we come just across the border from the backyard to the czech republic where these people store out there doing a been in business more and more people make a regular journey to do their shopping because the prices here is simply much cheaper people are now shopping outside the country vacuums retail revenues have

fallen dramatically and the high prices mean the tourism industries have been hit hard certainly not the results hopeful when the thing. joined but every club has its leaders and what they say apparently gays even if they're the ones who got you into trouble in the place that you see. all the countries are. going to know the greek bonds are as good as the german ones. make it possible for a greek. world so much money so that he may be contributing this time many of days it so eager to join the euro gang feeling there now simply being pushed around . i think he said back in. the us under strain by big ocean which has its headquarters belgium is literally at breaking point it's on the verge of splitting between the flemish speaking north hundred french speaking self and as i

high suicide rate and rising even further it says the catastrophe the government has concerns the country could be in the grip of a depression epidemic with many worried by radiation fears after the nuclear disaster which followed thomas reports now from power. a triple disaster on a scale the world has never known causing damage destruction and uncertainty forcing tens of thousands of japanese refugees to leave their lives behind and seek shelter anywhere they can some people do. the bucket but. the problem is the minority they be they have been accused by. classmates or you know of course by offshore. causing. if. not. primarily a move towards self-preservation this idea of desertion is defined by many as

characteristically ungentlemanly is and has earned of those who have evacuated the dishonorable title of traitor. of course it's hard to hear that we have family neighbors would think of our health but in other words we run away we escape because we're scared of radiation but there is no example in the world of something similar and the consequences are still ongoing. while those who have moved to shelters here in tokyo are facing that guilt and the pressure to move back home there are others who have lost everything cannot handle the overwhelming change and they are facing even darker demons japan already has one of the highest suicide rates in the world and following the disaster in march the government has issued a warning about a possible nationwide epidemic of depression here some organic farmers committed suicide because you know the. soil is everything

very good soil for after many hours of hard work and it's just contaminated in one place so. far so inside out i'm very sorry to hear that news and many other farmers are also very much impressed a recent national survey in japan performed by dr roshini and his team shows that suicide rates in japan have been found increased in the months since the disaster compared to the same timeframe in the previous two years but the demographics are not what you might expect. insincerely rate increase. nope. they fear areas because suburbs struggling to say. they have not had to mix inside this disaster has certainly taken its toll on japan's economy and such constant reminders of an intense topic can harm the collective psyche of the people

who live here as well because of the. tsunami disaster last year korea disaster many people actually lost their jobs or their working on the show has crashed. so. yeah they have so many good reasons to commit suicide because in japan's death toll to keep rising even though the initial disaster subsided months before in japan sean thomas forty. you're watching our see very shortly we'll explore traditional american way of money making obama to hunting the before last and i would say to the main news for you in just a few minutes time. mission
