the most volatile trading week this year the russian markets are leaping back but experts tell business r.t. they might as well be leaving deeper into the abyss and very soon find out more in twenty minutes. just after five pm here in moscow you with r.t. shite night fell over london and once again crowds of spilled onto the streets except this time it was local residents to protect their communities from looters after several days of disorder vandalism and theft the british public has decided it's time to fight back with all without the police law and with reports good. morning to leave if you come out to enfield tonight he better be in disguise at the first sign of trouble. this is what happens. around five hundred

mainly young men chased down the road after police ready to drive troublemakers out of town. despite the mob atmosphere a large crowd of young men are out for justice there's been no trouble so far most are ordinary people out to protect their communities a lot of people are here to help there obviously are some people that i can to day opposite effect they're going to get every weapon much cited for taking all stories of four young children out there with the children on the streets on the decide maybe if there's not enough police them will help them and just give everyone a wage the cost to the shops and in this push them away basically we don't want to go after anyone or root cause any trouble we just want to make sure that no one comes in terms of stocks which you know shops up in the roots and it's not just in enfield in other parts of town seeks have banded together to protect their

livelihoods and property sons and daughters come together with us and say let's all work the problems with out on to violence and force and disperse to each other which then takes it over causing the violence in the streets. this is the current face of communities across england many of which felt under siege from looters and said in their darkest hour the police were nowhere to be seen police have not been anywhere where the police if the police were hitting all that would be in town maybe this is what david cameron means when he talks constantly about the big society handing power and responsibility pack to local communities and i think the scenes we all saw our television screens last night of communities coming together to try and stop violence taking place was a model how these things should be done that despite the fact that three young asian men were killed in birmingham early on wednesday trying. to protect local

businesses looters allegedly ran with a car the tragedy ignited anger in the asian community. attracts all sorts and more mentality doesn't just rear its head. this is huge number of police officers on the streets of england at the moment which many find reassuring but groups like the enfield army prove that communities still feel police are unable to protect them and with budget cuts for frontline officers still on the table bodies on the beat could get fewer and further between was local vigilante we could take up the slack you read it out see. politicians our brand most of the rioters as an educated jobless youth some of them turned out to be quite the opposite among the looters was a millionaire's daughter and aspiring ballet dancer and the young musician social policy expert attorney says that the role of parents has been so one of mine it

drives youngsters to criminality if we don't have our storage then how can you expect young people to learn that they need to adopt certain standards to accept that adults are going to challenge them and question their behavior or their ideas and argue with them and get them to be socialized into being mature adults we're sending a message in our society. can be trusted that i was wrong voices of authority in young people's voice need to be paid more attention to that message is a very dangerous missions to settle down because it's completely opposite of the normal balance of things where i'd also responsible for nurturing young people putting them under pressure challenging them to achieve the best they possibly can and basically where necessary giving them a hard time about where they were not fully coming onto the market and i think this is a much broader problem of which in some respects these instances over. of riots and

criminality just one obvious physical expression. should be no surprise in a society that young people think that they can wander around the enormous enormous respect for the people who when we we've been through this process i think we actually need to look much deeper at this problem. you with us court has ruled that two american contractors who work for a private security firm in iraq can sue donald rumsfeld over their alleged illegal imprisonment and torture if proven guilty a former pentagon chief would be held personally accountable while in iraq the two men made claims that was engaged in corruption it's believed that they were then detained for nine months at a military facility before being released without explanation or charges a lawsuit against rumsfeld had been rejected by prosecutors and so on no answer were activist brownback says the case opens the floodgates to other officials being held to account for war crimes. what we have to recognize is that by stripping

rumsfeld album unity for the acts of torture against american citizens this opens wide to do were not only for rumsfeld but for dick cheney for bush for all of those who advocated or put into place policies like the policy of torture which they call enhanced interrogation techniques euphemistically and very thinly euphemistically disguising torture which is illegal then that means all of these people could be in the dark if you try to hold pentagon officials in this case the head of the pentagon and rumsfeld accountable for torture or other illegal acts that somehow shackles the hands of u.s. military ironically it suggests that the united states government needs to demands too and is engaging in illegal acts and that if anyone holds them accountable that will be quote shackling in their effort to carry out war it's partly demagogy but

by virtue of the nature of the argument it also reveals that they in fact have institutionalized torture otherwise they would not be afraid of the allegation against it. well at least the pentagon doesn't seem too worried about money as it splashes their cash in a bid to convince young americans to sign up for the army alongside financial. climate hollywood and the video games industry are helping to turn a military service into an attractive option he is an associate and i reports now on how the future is being played out for would be soldiers. a hunt for american youth. to hunt down the next american enemy war incorporated a robust business machine is operating at full capacity in the u.s. history which is. from televised ads to hollywood blockbusters. to video games to american presidents dumping soldiers the real

patriots each of them as. to what it means to be a soldier sailor airman marine and call stories from the image of the american warrior is portrayed as that of the invincible hero times where one of the number one entertainment spots in the big apple extracts millions from around the world and across the west apart from the flashy lights and the billboards there is a recruitment center right here one of hundreds just in new york the mesmerizing techniques luring young americans into serving are more sophisticated than ever before sponsoring the video game tournaments at the pop tournaments and then going up to these young kids to perform well and see if the u.s. military needs to see your skills at this video game the first fifteen or sixteen or seventeen year old this is something that's very basic it's a cruel and deceptive type of recruitment they want to use all the hippest tools they can to make being in the military as cool as possible and now cinematographer

edward pages dedicated ten years to being a u.s. soldier he thought it was the honorable thing to do if they presented the military for what it was i don't think anyone would join. but they do join having played one computer game and seen one more movie too many there's no second chance when you're actually out there and your life is at risk for something that most of these young men have no idea really the true reason why they're even out there by the time some of these reasons are realized. military. regions of the world better off limits to us it is often too late the problem is a lot of these kids don't know once they get in it's hard to get out the first time the way out is suicide a military report says eighty percent of soldiers in afghanistan have seen a friend killed or injured yet nothing stops the military propaganda campaign a direct carney at home also comes in handy for the pentagon there's a joke in the military the best recruiter is an economic downturn and that

recruiter is raging on what happened they have to confess i was in an eight that solve their problem was the desperation of millions of americans we had an economic crisis we've had unemployment up no matter the times the power of the pentagon seems eternal meaning gurung in more young americans into more wars with no happy end or give over insights and r.t. new york. so just turning eleven minutes past the hour now here in moscow you without still ahead for you this hour when more homes means more tension israel has to build a thousands of new settlements in occupied land just weeks before palestinians are expected to ask the un for statehood recognition of. hungary and journalists a force to keep quiet if they want to keep their jobs as a new media lords slam for cooking press freedom. after

a choppy week for europe's stocks for euro zone countries have resorted to methods unseen since the two thousand and eight crisis to try and calm the markets france italy spain and belgium have decided to ban short selling on the shares of banks and other financial companies the practice sees investors selling a borrowed stocks that are expected to fall in price before buying them back and keeping the difference short selling has been blamed for increasing recent market volatility meanwhile france has been battling speculation it was going to lose its aaa school which was finally reaffirmed by the ratings giants on wednesday investors however remain unconvinced the country's finances are solid enough by recent figures show stagnation in growth while the banking sector has been battling hell through most. hug and from the european school of management technology it says that it's the banks that are once again being offered protection. part of these risky managed measures have been taken to too risky the banking system.

especially with the banks in southern europe and i think this needs to be addressed but overall we also have this kind of political situation which has been very convenient for governments to increase debt levels to avoid bringing tough measures to their constituencies and i think this is something that has to end markets have indicated that they are not willing anymore to finance these large debt levels my fear is that we see some short term improvement in the share prices i think overall we will see a continued. overall i think these measures will not have a long lasting effect france also has a debt problem the overall debt level is very high and now that the u.s. government debt has been downgraded here's obvious fear of who will be next in the game and we've seen the problems with spain in italy recently and i think it's quite natural that the markets at this stage are concerned about france as well so i think that the french government is under some strong pressure to act requires

some political will to implement these changes and i think bed is the big if so if france is able to convince the market that it will implement these tough measures then i think we could see some civilization in the markets. for the seemingly endless and global recession has sent investors looking for safer bets with their money and it's gold that's emotional as the most popular commodity its value has almost doubled in the last two years and precious metal prices have broken all records just this week by steven wright he's asia business editor says gold short supply means it will always hold its value. it's definitely a saw i know of fear and panic and then sigh as he markets gyrating baldly people want to take money away from risky yes it's like stocks and gold is a natural haven for for investors money to do that the amount of gold that is being up to two since humans started taking out of the ground is actually less than the

amount of steel that the world produces every day so gold has a rarity value and people see this is holding its value in times of financial. market volatility they see it as as a relatively stable and safe investment. and because it's in such short supply when demand explodes for those commodity of course the price starts to skyrocket. this fierce scene in recent days. five fifteen pm here in moscow you with r t russia's anti terror committee say they've killed the chief of a major terrorist cell in the southern republican caucus started he was among six militants confirmed dead in the security raid in the region's capital. but. he's believed to have been behind the first terrorist attacks on police officers in pakistan is also thought to have helped train a suicide bomber who blew himself up at

a military camp in the republic last year that claimed the lives of over fifty people police say the militant and his associates were preparing more assaults in the region when they were killed pakistan remains one of russia's most of volatile regions facing a near daily violence. all right let's check out some other headlines from around the world for you this hour as syrian security forces have renewed their clampdown on regime protesters following friday's prayers when mass riots erupted across the country in the city of homs at least one person was killed in the east and the army fired shots tens of thousands gathered against president assad's rule no injuries reported just a as of yet another comes after american secretary of state hillary clinton called for wider international sanctions on syria. a pakistani court has sentenced a para military soldier to death over the killing of a young unarmed man in june the incident that occurred in the city of karachi was caught on videotape and broadcast on national television six other men also accused

in the teenager's death they were handed a life in prison the killing provoked public and. plain so over the brutality of the stance of security forces. student protests have exploded into violence in the chilean capital of santiago protesters demanding government funded education were seen hitting police cars with sticks and lobbing rockets. the mass demonstrations started. two months ago when a president pinera an arthur plans to cut spending on education he rebuffed demands by students telling them and nothing is free in this life someone has to pay. israel has approved the building of thousands of new settlements in east jerusalem the land that palestinians can sort of their territory this comes just weeks ahead of an expected move by the palestinian administration to have their state recognized within the established pre-one nine hundred sixty seven borders of the

un security council peace talks between the two sides have been deadlocked since last year after the construction of a jewish homes in the west bank. says the latest announcement is yet another step away from a compromise. this is not a time when it seems likely that israelis and palestinians will be moving toward the peace talks and that the americans will be leading the way the main issue that has blocked a return to negotiations is the continued settlement building by the government of israel this is not going to help the situation let's face it the government of israel feels pretty immune to any criticism around the world on this issue everyone is busy with a global financial crisis the united states as well those involved there are some twenty percent of the u.s. congress visiting israel this week and we all know that misconduct in europe has a lot more support in the american congress than he does even in his own parliament so this will just be another is really active building more settlements within neighborhoods refused to resign without anyone really blinking and it's not going

to help the situation it's not going to hurt it much more than it's already hurting . and a more news comment and eye catching videos are always there on our website or are going to check out some of the items on line for you right now shots fired on the korean peninsula in a fresh tensions between the north and south with analysts predicting that solves two thousand and twelve elections would bring a big changes in relations. and alien abduction is more sensible than congress not least that's according to the majority of americans who are rapidly losing trust in their lawmakers are for more about head over to argue for. the government in hungary has adopted a controversial new media control law critics say it represents a full scale assault on the freedom of the press and will result in hundreds of journalists being laid off result is a sarah further reports despite fierce opposition many have been forced into

silence over fears of job security. here louisville's see no evil speak no eagle at least not about the hungary in government opinion since hungary's new media law claim that their journalists are being silenced. it's about hiding things and hiding the truth and not covering controversy he was. too full to call the line of the government that's there's there's there's there's the whole message of. covering broadcast print and online content the controversial new law also established in the media all thirty of these working for the media regulate all chosen by the ruling party and were loyal supporters to being selected public service broadcasting to score political points one by the government there have been some mutually offs and the boot. people who are open the government people into key positions that the public public t.v.

channels journalists he voice criticism has felt the wrath of the. when you all thought i'd say they were journalists of the public radio and. ran the media was introduced they had their one minute silence in the national radio. they were right three suspended and then one of them left the radio. in fact he was the other one was fired hundreds of others have suffered the same fate with a wave of layoffs across the industry. to an uneasy situation in the media here who want to keep their jobs. out of line some argue the shakeups a good thing and. a very inflated public media sector has been long. this is not only talking been talking about. sustainable.

so i think. this debate has become. very politicized about politics and about professional commerce this is something. you have to cut costs that the day has been strongly. and many talented journalists have found themselves out of the job. just by. the recent firings and uncertainty about the implications of the new law just some of the recent events that are causing serious concern about hungary's democratic future. government needs an independent media so this government thinks. it can. influence they

can regulate the media. very. very wrong despite heavy criticism from both within the country and internationally the government is sticking by the new media laws the changes they could bring could be said to radically transform the state of hungary's media so. a bit of. time. in moscow a perfect outdoor activity. knows exactly how to keep fit and cool. that was absolutely brilliant. well i just love the summer here

in moscow. and i must get out of here and i just over an hour's time what i see but in just a few minutes i discover russia as we take you to be a country's far east to learn that the customs of the region's indigenous people right after the business are like temperature. soaring the russian markets are up again after closing in the black on the first evening for the first time in seven trading sessions equities have been given a further lift by performance on wall street overnights which saw the dow jones index gain four percent you've got this going off is that the stock exchange moscow for business. looks like on certainty and volatility remain the name of the game

here in russia the last five days have now become the most volatile trading week since two thousand and eight off goatees in europe are trying to reinforce some calm on the markets by banning the short selling on banks france italy spain and belgium have banned bats which allow the investors to profit from the fall off the prices of the stocks but similar steps have been taken before in two thousand and eight by the u.k. and the u.s. and back then it was altered in a degree of artificial inflation in stock prices on the down side on friday already a latest economic growth figures from france which is already under scrutiny from ratings agencies due to its high debts and g.d.p. figures aren't helping the situation since they're showing the eurozone second largest economy is stagnant currently there is a lot of talk on the margins of on the one this volatility is four over multi-stage a downturn or means the market is near zero the bottom analysts are saying now it's

too wait to sell yet too early to buy so since it's impossible to predict the market's moves perhaps the best thing to do now is to steer clear of the market. as we heard from you go to a number of european countries are imposed a ban on short selling thanks david jones a strategist i.g. index believes this will only provide short term relief. that's helping the markets today we've got for example here in london darkly is one of the top prizes of the day so we are seeing strength in banks but it is like history repeating itself because similar levels of volatility we had three years ago in september two thousand and eight there was widespread short selling bans but over the next month from actual markets still dropped another fifteen to twenty percent so again traders in europe at least so far are back convinced the sure selling bans and necessary to change anything. so you would have the markets now in

a year there was a downturn at the very beginning of the session but now it's all positive again in the forty's up two point two percent of their two point eight percent that's after gaining more than three percent the day before if we take a look at russia looking positive there to finally strong figures of growth for two years up four percent my six point two percent let's see what is moving the markets lukoil up two point one percent on the back of rising energy prices will look at them in the second example is also boosted its net profit by fifty five percent the first half of the year reaching seven point two billion dollars and another well company rules now after is up over two point seven percent meanwhile private gas producer nova is up almost two percent supported by stronger second quarter results which showed net profits rising one hundred and twenty percent. oil prices are positive this volatility will slow down economic recovery that's the limit seeing

gains on the way all crude prices drop as low as seventy five dollars and find the size eighty six dollars a barrel this week which added some jitters in the market obviously precious metals in the red gold is catching his breath of breaking a new record on thursday it's losing point eight percent point nine percent with silver losing half of the sec. is next with the headlines i'll be back in fifty minutes time with a prison cell. the .
