international news and comment live from. moscow where it's just turned eight pm good to have you with us this hour and a lot of police not doing enough to keep london safe the british public take to the streets to protect their neighborhoods from vandals after several days of havoc looted shops and torched cars and communities decide it's time to take the matter into their own hands nor emmett's how small a good design could surely a warning to loot is if you come out to enfield tonight you better be in disguise at the first sign of trouble this is what happens. around five hundred mainly young men chase down the road after police ready to drive troublemakers out of town. despite the more atmosphere

a large crowd of young men are out for justice there's been no trouble so far most 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 the opposite effect begin to get everywhere very much started checking out streets up for young children or children on the streets on the decide if there's not enough police them will help them understand everyone a wage the cost to the shops and push them away because we don't want to go after anyone because of the trouble we just want to make sure that no one comes in specially no shops open in the us and it's not just in enfield in other parts of town sikhs have banded together to protect their livelihoods and property sons and daughters come together with us and say let's solve the problems with out on through violence and causing distress to each other which then takes it. causing for 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 put it you think. maybe this is what david cameron means when he talks constantly about the big society handing power and responsibility back to local communities and i think the scenes we all saw all our television screens last night of communities coming together to try and stop violence taking place was a mortal 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 rams the with the car the tragedy ignited anger in the asian community of vigilante panther tracks all sorts and more pence. doesn't just

rear its head elite is this is a 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 the front line officers still on the table bodies on the beat could get fewer and further between local vigilante we could take up the slack it's r.t. . as politicians branded most of the rioters as an educated jobless youth and some of them turned out to be quite the opposite among the losers was a millionaire's daughter an aspiring ballet dancer and a young musician social policy expert tony given says the role of parents has been so i want to mind it drives youngsters to criminality and if we don't have a thorough then how can you expect young people to learn that they need. 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't be trusted that those on voices of authority in young people's voice need to be paid more attention to that message is a very dangerous mission to send them because it's not completely upset think of a 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 up to the mark and i think this is a much broader problem in some respects these instances of riots and criminality are just one more obvious visible expression so it should be no surprise in our society that young people think that they can wander around and you know not show respect for other people when we when we we've been through this

process i think we actually need to look much deeper at this problem. a u.s. court has ruled that two american contractors who work for a private security firm in iraq consume donald rumsfeld over their alleged illegal imprisonment and torture if proven guilty the former pentagon chief will be held personally accountable while in iraq the two men made claims that their firm was engaged in corruption and it's believed that they were then detained for nine months at a military facility before being released without explanation or charge a lawsuit against rumsfeld had been rejected by prosecutors until now for more on this son joined by jennifer hard reaches a lawyer human rights activist joining us on the webcam there in texas and the usa thanks very much indeed for being with us now cloud seemed to be gathering over donald rumsfeld with stakes being pretty high it seems so what could be the outcome of this case do you think. well the only outcome in a civil case is that he must pay money damages to the people that he caused injury

to both of these being us citizens the rather startling outcome is that now a united states sentence and can sue for a choice that happened outside the united states but someone who is not a us citizen who is probably harmed even worse or even chel by those exact same practices they were ordered and authorized by mr rumsfeld cannot sue and worse yet we have a criminal statute to in fact then make it a felony punishable up for twenty years in prison for anyone who conspires to commit charge or outside indicted states that would be title eighteen of us code twenty three forty there's also the war crimes act under our own laws let alone all the international treaties mr rumsfeld should be going to jail for the people that he has up your eyes the torture of throughout the black sites throughout the world

is our no other is it right though he was obviously operating under the administration under bush is it right that he should be personally facing these charges. it is because he certainly aren't there eyes then there is the very notorious document where he are theorised a whole string of terrible practices and none of the problems i have to stand for eight hours at a time during work why shouldn't the prisoners a huge difference of course being that he could walk around and move while a prisoner has had to stay in a fixed position which causes the lymph nodes throughout the body to swell until the people can't even get their shoes back on usually it's excruciating. so because he ordered those he certainly should be subject to so that does not mean that all of the other people who work with him on all of this including president bush of course should not also be subject to sue well then so if the former contractors do win this case then as you say the likes of bush i'm on the high u.s.

ranking officials both former and current they really could you think play strong on this. well they should chase trial if you break the law you're so close to face trial the great travesty here be aimed at they're not facing criminal trials they carried out massive war crimes for years and years and years with a total disaster wreaked around the globe and said back at our international human rights treaties nearly five hundred years we don't even have had be as corpus for a number of those folks in it and guantanamo and in the black sites for a very like time. i say it's a good start it's barely enough i'll go on to get united to ask you quickly that a lawyer representing rumsfeld he said that this court decision was a blow to the u.s. military even putting american soldiers a risk what do you make of a human well i think it's it's pretty silly because all of the military or a very large number of very high level generals in the military from the beginning

protested against what the white house was intact doing why did they protest they said look it's an evil conventions protect us when our own people are captured we don't want them waterboard batterer humiliated kept in freezing cells etc etc we don't want that done to our own people don't do this they can geneva conventions protect us as well not only that if you start doing this to people around the world there's going to be a huge blow back against their own troops and they're the first ones who are going to be channeled so in fact those patterns and practices by rumsfeld bush cetera et cetera made the world a much more dangerous place and it's probably resulted in far more people going out in the streets with different kinds of makeshift bombs and shelling our own soldiers out there who are trying to protect their own country it's usually on shots jennifer harbury lawyer and human rights activist that's all we have time for

thanks so much for joining us live in the usa. like for us. well at least the pentagon doesn't seem to be worried about money is it splashes the cash in a bid to convince young americans to sign up for the army alongside financial uncertainty and unemployment hollywood and the video games industry are helping turn military service into an attractive option. to reports on how the future is playing out for would be soldiers. to hunt for american humor. to hunt down the next american and in the war incorporated a robust business machine is operating at full capacity in the u.s. straight. from televised ads to hollywood blockbusters. to video games to american presidents dubbing soldiers the real patriots each of them adds honor to what it means to be a soldier sailor airman marine and coast guardsman the image of the american

laurier is portrayed as that of the invisible hero times where one of the number one interest payments spots in the big apple are trucks and millions from around the world and across the west apart from the flashy lights and the billboards there's a recruitment center right here one of hundreds just in new york the mesmerizing techniques luring young americans into serving our more sophisticated than ever before sponsoring a video game tournaments in the tournaments and then going up to these young kids who perform well and see the u.s. military needs you see your skills at this video game of course two hundred fifteen or sixteen or seventeen year olds and 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 that i think anyone would join in. 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 going out there by the time some of these reasons are realized. military. regions of the world are off limits to us it is often too late the problem is that 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 director who also comes in handy for the pentagon there's a joke in the military that the best reporter is an economic downturn and that recruiter is raging on what happened if the two thousand and eight that solve their

problem was the desperation of millions of americans we had an economic crisis we've had on employment zoom up no matter the times the power of the pentagon seems eternal meaning during you know more young americans into more wars with no happy end or game over insights and as you churkin are artsy new york. well still to come here on an assault on civil liberties in hungary journalists are forced to keep watch if they want to keep their jobs as a new media door is slammed for curbing press freedom. the story still to come first after choppy week for europe stocks for eurozone countries have resorted to methods unseen since the two thousand and eight crisis to try and calm markets france italy spain and belgium have decided to ban short selling on the shares of banks and other financial companies the purchases investors selling borrowed stocks that are expected to fall in price before buying

them back and keeping the difference short selling has been blamed for increasing we sent market volatility we've all france has been battling speculation it was going to lose its aaa score which was funnily reaffirmed by a ratings johnson wednesday investors however remain unconvinced the country's finances a solid enough recent figures show stagnation in growth while the banking sector has been battling health from this young dog and from the european school of management technology says it's the banks that are once again being offered protection. part of these rescue managed measures have been taken to to rescue the banking system. especially with the banks and 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 downward trend so 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 there's obvious fear of who will be next in the game and we've seen the problems with spain in italy real. simply 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 that 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 stabilization in the markets by the way more news coming tonight catchin videos are always there for you on our website here's a taste of what's online right now well. short spot on the korean peninsula and

for the latest business news with dmitri. thanks bill the most volatile trading we can three years ended on a positive note in russia the markets have closed up for the second day in row after the negative finish of the six previous sessions peter weston from out on says unlike the crisis of two thousand and eight market players are better positioned this time to weather the storm. the good thing is that it even though we were down a lot it didn't seem like there were panic selling i think that investors were much better prepared this time around than they were in two thousand and eight the fall is pinpoint of significant if very equally significant on a daily basis in the beginning of the week but i think because it was so much bad news out of europe and us so much speculation about the first round we're going to have him of the credit rating but more bad news out of europe of speculation about the next country to basically be in trouble over sovereign debt investor had time

to position himself in a better way for the downturn so in other words removed slightly more into defensive sectors where lived the downturn came and then they did when they were selling a few clients i spoke to were you know were selling part of what their holdings if they were reduced in russia. but they were not sort of selling in panic. and another to stabilize the markets for european nations of bamn short selling on banks francis of the spade and belgium are prohibiting bets which allow investors to profit from falls on the price of financial stocks the move follows the high volatility in the sector and the fears about their exposure to euro zone government that david jones market strategist i.g. index believes this will only provide short relief. that's helping the markets today we've got for example here in london barclays is one of the top prizes in 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 financial markets still dropped another fifteen to twenty percent so again traders in europe at least so far are back convinced the short selling bans are necessary to change anything. because take a look at how the markets are faring this hour in the u.s. they call that series of after a strong recovery on thursday but gains are still limited as data shows consumer confidence is cool and sharply to fifty four point nine points this is the lowest level in thirteen years the dow jones is one hundred percent up nasdaq point one percent european markets closed again another three percent up after gaining the same amount on the first day they did fall immediately after the open but then started read gaining in the end however the latest projection of a growth figures are a cause for concern as they show yours are in second biggest economy was stagnant in the second quarter footsie and the dax ended on a very positive note. and this is the closing picture for russia also very rosy

here are two years up three point two percent rise takes two point two percent both markets we're seeing a lot of volatility but friday was less volatile than the previous days if you look at the main movers on the markets you see that energy shares were actually mixed in a way lukewarm. it was out in just point three percent in the midst of all this positive sentiment a complete big boost it's never over by fifty percent in the first half of the year reaching seven point three billion dollars for that was not enough to present best is another world company rosneft now again four point four percent in just one session meanwhile a private gas producer nova tech is up almost two percent and it has reported net profits rising one hundred twenty percent in the second. oil prices positive this hour however many are fearing that market volatility may slow down economic recovery therefore gains are limited and we're still not seeing the levels that we

saw a week ago on world group prices dropped as those seventy five dollars and climbed as high as well were eighty seven dollars per barrel this week which added some jitters in the market. industrial production in russia rose over five percent the first seven months of this year that was below forecast production was in on the process good so it was a sixty four percent because they expect the annual production growth to reach five point four percent and i can trace this edition of the business news on a c we will be back next hour with an update there is next for their.
