some top politicians in the u.k. have continued to play a blame game overhunting of the riots in england they western decades harsh criticism of each other's performance came after prime minister david cameron claims the force appeared powerless in the face of disturbances during the first a night of looting and arson senior politicians were away on holiday when mass riots began in north london after the fatal police shooting of the suspect protesters began smashing shop windows and setting fire to cars and buildings leading to widespread copycat violence and over two thousand a rest have been made so far and courts who worked around the clock to clear the cases but while police and the government over who deserves the credit for quelling the riots groups and local communities took it into their own hands to protect their neighborhoods auntie's lower emmet that's something that. a good result could surely a warning to looters around five hundred mainly young men chased down the road after police ready to drive troublemakers out of child. despite the

more 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 are going to do the opposite effect but you're going to get that everywhere pretty much started taking all stories about young children not double but children on the streets although this is heartening if there's no enough police help them just get everyone the wage the cost to the shops and in this push them away because we don't want to go after anyone cause any trouble we just what about sure that no one comes in the . shops. and it's not just in enfield in other parts of town sikhs have banded together to protect their livelihoods property sons and daughters from together because i'm sorry let's solve the problems without violence and causing distress to trouble which then takes.

this is the current faced 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 hit that would have been 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 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 rammed the with the car the tragedy ignited anger in the asian community a vigilante attracts all sorts and. doesn't just rear its head in looters

business 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 with budget cuts for front line officers still on the table is on the beat could get fewer and further between local vigilante groups could take up the slack. and in the wake of intense looting and violence across england david cameron and ours to is considering banning people from social networks if they're found guilty of inciting violence through the web but political activists chris knight a clampdown on media misses the point and fails to address the underlying causes if it leaves a revolution to enforce the rule of law so be it the rule of law can't be enforced if it's one law for the rich and one for the poor the rule of law means the same law for everyone is just so ironic having celebrated the facebook revolution the

social media the twitter revolutions and across north africa and the arab world suddenly. decided to clamp down on the media here it's absolutely not the issue the issue is inequality the and the issue is is is that the supposed to be what kind of a society are we that drives eleven year olds fourteen year old kids to that. mental state to burn the local store that that we actually we believe we need actually not weasel politicians words. this is our c.n.n. coming up later in the program another nation locked into street protests in syria see the harsh step that the government takes to crush the months of long uprising. in your anxiety groups poland as more and more people review that position on adopting the single currency saying they don't want to pay for the mistakes of others. as in three years this week since georgia launched its

attack on this small republic of south a sitter and its people the conflict so five days of heavy fighting has georgia has sought to regain control over the territory hundreds of innocent lives were lost and moral services have been held in the capital to evolve and across south a set here hundreds of people of candles and prayed for the victims of the conflict bracing wide balloons in their memory. has talked of those who still struggle to come to terms with their losses. i come here almost every day i sit and talk to my son to a new lawyer next to my dear boy. for the last three years stacey sidney has come to this cemetery where her son is birds five days to two thousand and eight split her life into a before and after. her son a medical college graduate heard the republic's capital team vall was under attack from georgia he rushed home to help the injured he died in her arms as they lay

trapped for days on to the rubble of their apartment block that was in the georgian alterian is firing. the only thing that makes her life worth living now is free to point two year old daughter they now live together in a newly built house to rounded by families was similar tragic stories. in the targets across the street lives of women who lost two children enter the house opposite lives a man who lost both his wife and his child. all these people are victims of georgia's military aggression in august two thousand and eight when they try to retake control of the downed breakaway republic of south ossetia a russian peacekeeping mission in the region also came under fire nursed my abuse dive i was on duty with them and witnessed average thing that happened that night for kids i saw seen violent fire when you know it was going to be our last night

but was still carried out peacekeeping mission and tried to be calm. moskos sound trained force meant to protect its citizens and prevent more civilian deaths within five days georgian troops had been retired three weeks later russia recognized the statue as a deterrent. the last three years have changed the face of this thursday i new residential air where new roads jobs and have been burst and have been built but still signs of the conflict remain this ruins behind my back are all that's left of the russian peacekeeping poles. for those who lived through the horrors of the brief but deadly conflict the memories are still that we roll. much in the question of reporting from sea involves south a statue. has been one of the most turbulent weeks in games for the world's financial markets spotted by the downgrade of america from mr aaa credit rating trading so the biggest volume of shares changing hands since two thousand and eight

punishing investors went on on a selling spree standard and poor's the rating agency behind the move south made the decision based on an apparent inability of the u.s. government to deal with the problem echoing the claim was rob it is the world bank head said the loss of confidence in economic leadership in the united states and europe has pushed markets into a new dangers ahead how investors now look for calm week of trading as the you impose a ban on short selling of financial shares and see every tail sales gain in the u.s. the biggest in four months but as huffington post columnist eric margolis says the u.s. still has to address the financial troubles underlying cause it's never ending wars it demoed states would be gone in saying that growth outside ours will not be too much to pay for france but we're not paying for defense right now we're going through oath and it's in the sense that america's military operations are all

around the world not to me americans understand is that the costs of wars were never equal. to be put on the u.s. national credit card that's one of the reasons why the us down fourteen trillion dollars and is growing if americans had paid for the course he's formed a large military sounds out of their taxes i think that would be a big change public opinion. and struggled investors went looking for new places to put their money and not a blow has been dealt to the french bank societe generale. that cost fifteen percent of its share of valley often occasions over the holding massive amounts of contagious debt to his house he's own. kind of the report he says this could be part of a plan by investors by insiders rather to crush the french banking system and. the french banks are loaded with toxic derivatives that were sold to them by american

investment banks and the american investment banks plus the rating agencies plus the hedge funds are now attacking these french banks they know where the bodies are buried and they're using the weapons that they sold them to attack them decided generale and b. and b. and credit agricole are insolvent their balance sheets are six to ten times bigger in terms of the debt that they carry than they could possibly service but it's carried on the shadow banking system they don't report those debt but the insiders around the world who wield the weapons of mass financial destruction are tackling that to force these unrealized it onto their balance sheet to force these companies into delinquency into a foreclosure because they are going to reap billions of dollars attacking these banks the side of general is an insolvent institution so is being paid they can't possibly meet their their credit demands absolutely not. says the euro's

inception many countries have done their best to join the. club but that's all changed with the debt blake sweeping through the continent. asking our ports and watching the euro troubles has given old hopefuls a fresh perspective. while parts of europe have been teetering on the edge of economic abyss poland has remained stable in the storm along with this currency. there is a widespread belief in the country that being outside the euro has helped give poland out of trouble here. if we were part of the eurozone then we would have been obliged to help countries like greece and portugal how can we help out someone else without solving our own problems it's almost guaranteed that prices would go up but we join the euro zone which would damage my business recent opinion polls suggest that more than sixty percent of balls want to keep their own currency a dramatic turnaround from just a few years back a few years ago the euro is seen as the euro club was seen as something very exclusive polls aspired to that they wanted their country to join the euro now the

name of the euro has been sullied by the troubles in greece and italy poles don't want to be dragged into this crisis if the government forced the euro issue try to bring poland into the euro zone it could be political suicide poland has fared much better than many of its e.u. partners in the global crisis several countries like greece ireland and portugal are on the brink of disaster partly due to a boring binge allowed by your membership and associated low interest rates being outside the euro zone members pulled could not join the party but now it does not have the hangover poland was meant to have the euro by next year the time when the country's co-hosting the twenty twelve european football championship but with the latest developments these plans may be shelved for another four years e.u. rules say poland is obliged to adopt. the euro once it leaves the economic rules to

join you but both politicians are now much cooler on the idea with ministers saying the user needs to get its house in order first with these very important for us. they need for institutional changes in rows on i mean the economic governance of the euro zone. crisis management and we see some need for a trend in the euro zone before. the target date will be. set up the game has changed in the usual globe everyone once wanted to join me now be the no one wants to accept. the looks of stooge it will do for the warsaw in poland. still ahead for you this hour when building houses amenability intentions talks of further into the background as israel start thinking of building project just weeks before the un discusses the recognition of

a palestinian state. and why the threats of tougher laws don't work russian parents do whatever it takes to protect their children from paedophiles slipping through the legal net. at least twenty five people have been reported killed in terrorist land and sea assaulted by government forces in a serious key coastal city of latakia the operation continues a brutal crackdown on several cities to root out protesters demanding president bashar assad step down the pressure has had grown dramatically over the past five months with around two thousand civilians dead after clashes with government forces the continuing bloodshed has caused the international community to line up against the state's handling of the uprising and to demand an immediate end to the violence and according to patrick hayes a journalist from the online political magazine spiked president assad's recent promise to a multi-party system that signified. he's almost ready to surrender. clamping down

on freedom of speech and freedom of expression which is the cornerstone of any democracy is not sending out a message to the syrian people that he can be taken seriously or trusted in his promise is a tool there is a sense from a surge really is by which he started to say this is the end of the single party rule and he will start to think about elections and the way we should previously portrayed himself and his party as the only guarantors of syrian stability but is now talking about major constitutional reforms means that really there's a real uncertainty about what he's trying to do the sense i get from assad is that he seems very tired that she almost willing to relinquish power at the moment of but i think there's a reluctance to want to relinquish power because i suspect he is very worried he will meet the same treatments that smirk is now seeing and another troubled country media where clashes between colonel kentucky and the nato is portrayed opposition

have reached the heart forget claiming thousands of lines that she can't change who recently returned from the monitoring mission in the country says that there is oil contracts and potential investments and now a more attractive proposition for some nato members and continuing the conflict. this whole nato aggression on libya is looking increasingly embarrassing for the nato countries so it's not just a question of recognizing the council when. actually i think it's quite clear now it's a race for nato not only to save its own face trying to extricate itself out of the mess that they've put themselves into but also it's a race to who's going to be the first to cast good off because now with it's only about the folks in the eurozone and even the president united states on this incredible historic times we're living in a warning that the dollar could default well those billions off of oil. that's

come in handy especially for someone like. iran will not acquire nuclear weapons there's no place for it in human weapons in the twenty first century the president . spoke exclusively to at his cabin now and. saying that at some point in the future you may want to acquire a nuclear deterrent a nuclear weapon. never never this is an inhuman weapon it's our religion says it is prohibited and we are religious people if any country tries to build a nuclear bomb in fact they waste their money and they create great danger they themselves the international equations are not determined by nuclear arsenals today the americans have nuclear bombs and nuclear weapons and could they win in iraq and afghanistan could the nuclear weapons help the israelis to gain victory and lebanon has got nuclear weapons help the former soviet union from collapse.

and you can order the full interview with method atlanta journal just an hour here on r.c. . tel aviv has sanctioned the construction of sixteen hundred drillings in east jerusalem earlier this week and as planning to raise the number to almost three thousand the building of israeli settlements in the west bank has been a significant irritant of palestinians and is one of the major causes of political deadlock in negotiations between the two sides israel's announcement comes just a few weeks before the expected vote of recognition of the palestinian authority in the un security council and analyst gershon baskin believes tel aviv is not inclined to reach a compromise and he told r.t. the timing of new settlement planet is far from being a coincidence. 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 is blocked to return to negotiations is the continued settlement building by the

government of israel let's face it the government of israel feels pretty immune to any criticism around the world right here on this issue everyone is busy with the global financial crisis and we all know that mr netanyahu has a lot more support in the american congress than he does even in his own parliament so there isn't just be another is really active building more settlements within neighborhoods of used euro zone without anyone really blinking and it's not going to help the situation it's not going to hurt it much more than it already hurting. and some more of today's top stories from around the world for you they must admit it is to take six to nine people the norway has returned to the island scene of its deadly rampage unders breivik was helping police reconstruct events showed no remorse when describing how he targeted children as he tried to swim away from the island their right wing extremist is also charged with organizing an explosion in the capital oslo breivik claims he wanted to save europe for muslims and

injured in the accident caused why are we just in indiana thousands witnessed the horrifying scene when a massive metal stage structure collapsed on to crowds of fines waiting to play at the state governor mitch daniels said precautions had been taken before this storm but no one could have anticipated such a strong gust later estimated at more than one hundred ten kilometers per hour. two policemen in the russian urals have been arrested for allegedly accepting bribes from a paedophile is just the latest in a series of crimes where police and judges seem to be turning a blind eye to child abuse as daddy bush told reporters that's forcing parents to deal with the problem themselves. and mother in grief. oh really was that if i even thought of buying a pistol and shooting him myself i simply don't know how else to protect my family we live on the first floor with curtains constantly drawn i go to work every day

sick with fear my daughter which are on the website. it was hard for another area to admit she trusted someone who harmed her daughter she brought the man into the house is a common law husband to live side by side with him for more than an hour news. my daughter told me he threw a stray cat from the roof and said he did the same to her if she ever confided in me about the things she was doing to her when the dahlia finally managed to get things to the court the jury acquitted the man who she says is now off to her family hungry for adventure. experience is just one example of many in a recent controversial case a man suspected of raping a seven year old girl was released without charge. yes i called her underwear and she started crying i squeezed her neck and crestor into the ground it only took a couple of minutes then i told her to go home and tell no one had. only after an enraged crowd lynched the men did police launch

with people who would meet to preferring minus the idea is to film their faces and expose them on the web and it was to be able to i want to show you are simply a group of people who decided to fight this evil in our own way because our families live in the city not children walk in these parks and we don't want them ever to meet those perverts but in their field they try to act within the law but often operate at its edge volunteers tracking paedophiles online say most people will sign off when they learn the personnel chatting to is under age but they also say roughly out of one hundred contacts one is said to be looking for easy prey can be the maximum sentence for child sex offenses is twenty years in prison and an amendment to the law is meant to introduce tougher penalties including life in prison and conditional chemical castration but until the changes are implemented and proven to be effective the activists say they'll continue with their vigilante
