love it this week. and president obama unveils his half a trillion dollar jobs act accompanied by stern warnings there's no time left for political bickering don't live comment on but coming up a few two. funerals been held in london for the man whose death triggered a wave of violent riots across the u.k. father of four mark duggan was shot dead during a police operation back in august. reports. is in mourning today. takes place you will remember. this area who was allegedly shot by police marksmen at the beginning of the. riots which. in the. area spread. and then eventually to the rest of the country leading to a large amount of civil unrest which the government and police are still reeling from the funerals being attended by round about a thousand people too many to fit inside the small church and interestingly the
12:06 pm
police presence here today is incredibly. there are hardly any police here that all dressed in their normal uniforms. no aggressive policing whatsoever. community that has a deep mistrust of police which has any been intensified by the shooting of mark duggan there is an inquiry underway into what happened to cause his death but there have been no results so far and the funeral is an important turning point people are still asking what actually happened people in this community also asking where is the mini cab driver who was supposed to have been driving at mr duggan at the time when he was shot he hasn't appeared in the public eye people here are not sure whether he's being questioned by police there is quite a tense atmosphere here people are worried about the effect of the police on that community that. welcoming to the media we were given a little bit of a hard time when we went to the estates where mr duncan and his family lived.
12:07 pm
very very respectful of how the community hey want to keep it but they still have questions that need answering about what happened to mr duncan why was he shot by police marksman what were the events that led up to his death and there is a question which they have no answers. it was the world and even a. few people. the repercussions of nine eleven are still being felt today in the form of the now maligned war on terror and yet it seems for the majority of people who bore the brunt of the world's fury in the aftermath of the attacks nine eleven is just another day adam place reports from afghanistan. helmand in southern afghanistan is the province that is borne the brunt of the fighting between the taliban and coalition forces. what would afghans in this war torn province think about nine eleven and its consequences. while on patrol with
12:08 pm
the marines i get a first opportunity to ask a couple of young afghan men what they know about nine eleven but those who are. here. can you show them a few more and can us the do they know where it is we don't know if that's because because we are former we never heard about the need for the world. cup with. the two young men and clearly never heard of nine eleven. but maybe the elders of the local sure would have more to say. no you see you. just can see the smoke from the buildings and that's a that's only thing i can say when you guys show this picture as saying it so i think that was a call but if i just got here i would be surprised but having been here now for six months this is pretty much the stone ages where we are and what to do about their reactions. so the guy who said it was kabul was never going to kabul and he just
12:09 pm
shows you how isolated they are even in their own country. understand. that you know you don't think you know you're going to america afghanistan come to this point and get the airplane from here to attack in the united states you know how much. it was nice to go from iraq to then here is a lot easier to understand you know why you're here and you see at that picture it was good picture mine yourself because. you see afghans looking at it in this article wearing the uniform occurring right. to the back. and saying we're going to help you decide one funding and they just asked how many funding and this is going to help you where is the head. down with the missing to give it to our kids. fighting and they do it for their own kids in a paper that i don't indeed and. i do sympathize you understand what some are saying it's even just from the weather we've had recently people losing their homes and nobody to help them so you know when you have when you can feed yourself
12:10 pm
there's birdhouse yourself are you to care about somebody you know six thousand miles away. so i can understand that this is what i thought you thought i never thought to ask those questions of anybody here that's why we're here amazingly in a country where for ten years a war has been fought with nine eleven as its root cause and justification it turns out not only were the villages oblivious to nine eleven but still with the afghan police and even some of the translators working with the u.s. military you don't know that it's not easy to know i know i've never seen. it before. a survey taken in twenty ten by the international council on security and development found that ninety two percent of afghan men in helmand and other afghan provinces had no idea what nine eleven was with american troops that start with during this year it seems likely that they will leave afghanistan without the vast majority of afghans ever having really understood why they came in the first place adam plots from afghanistan. how to sort of the afghan people it seems have no idea
12:11 pm
why the u.s. invaded their home country americans themselves don't understand the point of the war that's the view of peter hart from the national media watch group fair based in new york. well i think the united states has made substantial efforts to. sort of conventional propaganda in afghanistan to explain the u.s. occupation and the war there it's not working out he says not reaching a lot of people and i think you know we're we're less worried here about what the taliban propaganda can do this way or that way then with what the u.s. media establishment can do they have a difficult time convincing americans that the war makes sense at this point it makes perf. it's perfectly logical that afghans have no idea why american troops are there so i think if anything we share this kind of befuddlement the war must continue and must go on. we have a media system in this country that i think echoes and amplifies state power
12:12 pm
instead of questioning it and if we had i think serious reporting from afghanistan that talked to afghans people might feel some sympathy toward them and wonder what exactly the point of the war it is right now. the world's ice hockey community remains in mourning with the loss of almost the entire lokomotiv team after their plane crashed here in russia on wednesday forty three people died when the ak forty two crashed on takeoff near the city. people also gathered in prague to remember three czech nationals who are among the many top players killed hundreds have been laying flowers and chanting the names of the former world champions in their memory candles have also been lit at bratislava hocking stadium to remember the ones who are back in play and died the two country's national coaches have also spoken about the tragedy. for years. i worked in your islam i had the best time of my career that this past spring the absolute with all those people by the
12:13 pm
same plane that it is a huge shock if your team and all super city toggled was a great influence and a great hockey player he was a legend of slow mike ice hockey sometime in february or may next year i would still trying to convince him to return back to the national team because it's hard even to talk about we've lost players in their prime but with the hard core of the national team i knew them very well even though they were playing abroad still they were always trying to get better they can't believe i just want to be part of a system they wanted to know the details of their positions and how to best score because huge interest in what they did i really enjoyed working with them. and with burns to ninety percent of his body the only surviving lokomotiv player on the plane alexander got leave off remained conscious after the crash and insisted on seeing his relatives now tonight the player still in intensive care is condition still critical but there's also another player who didn't get on that plane after being told to stay behind by the coach that day on our web site r.t.
12:14 pm
dot com you can read all about the full story of maxime is there to get it. but it is very terrifying for me the hockey team is like a family i lost him over fifty people people i was close to this. such a long time as well and in the belarusian capital minsk where the locomotive team was heading on the fateful flight a special commemoration ceremonies been held two thousands of fans packed into the stadium to remember those who perished in wednesday's disaster. and we look into the preliminary results from the flight recorders of the tragic flight which suggests the engines were intact at the time of the catastrophe these c.c.t.v. pictures here capture the moment a huge ball of smoke rises into the air as the plane burst into flames there is more of that again online tonight at r.t. dot com. president barack obama is presented as much anticipated
12:15 pm
jobs act to congress the ambitious program aims to reverse the country's struggling unemployment statistics it also calls for almost half a trillion dollars in funding and came with a blunt warning to republicans to stop the political circus and pass the measures for more of what that will mean then for america's embattled unemployed let's talk to larry burns he's director comes with this father of fares mr burns thanks for being on the program going to big part of the president's plan seems to be tax breaks for businesses that start talking about that first of all should we but of course think about one through taking into account that so many people are unemployed therefore spending less money very little money and in many cases what incentives to companies have to expand the role of these tax breaks going to achieve. well they're meant to be an inducement they're meant to be encourage meant . to take the rebates and the money but otherwise we're squirreled
12:16 pm
away in bank accounts and put that money to work now the only problem is that this was tried before the tax abatement program. took place. a number of months ago and it really didn't work but as a large number of jobs were not created in fact in the recent quarter almost no jobs jobs were created so the administration is. trying all of its techniques to see to it that it could generate cash flow and monetary activity but everything could ministration tries doesn't work and the republicans certainly are not encouraged to be of any help to the democratic administration because they would like to see president obama. on his face because this would lessen the likelihood that. the president
12:17 pm
would win reelection in the next presidential race so this is a very very tricky situation larry what do you make of his monologue as a kind of all or nothing man i was needed in the in the way that he presented his plan i mean considering the hostility between the republicans in congress and the president that really a smart thing to do. well. it's a very tricky strategy the republicans are following that is they. the president may be successful in pinning on them the label of caring more for their short term personal political goals than for the good of the nation and. now about the hasn't happened yet obama hasn't been successful in the looting. his present situation where he's
12:18 pm
a grossly unpopular president his unpopularity crease and all the times now much of this is not fair and clearly the republicans are trying to take are acting in the very opportunistic fashion trying to take advantage of obama's fly. but we don't know how the situation is going to turn out. right now the polls indicate that president obama is a very unpopular president is unpopularity is increasing. the other big question mark carol course looking at these plans to build a big part of the job crisis in the us is the flight of the manufacturing industry to greener pastures abroad thinking china i mean the mighty seven can valleys offshore much of its production lately how does all this out how is it possible to set up twenty odd million jobs without a thriving industry is a chicken and egg situation. yes very much so. but i think that the
12:19 pm
historians of this period will indicate that the real deal and as in terms of the u.s. job history was all bill clinton. because it was president clinton who advocated naafa which was tirelessly promoted by clinton. what he did really was to republican eyes the democratic party to take in many of the democratic virtues as seen by the u.s. business community. where normally the republican position but what we had was that. the street trade agreements which course of the united states millions of manufacturing jobs turned out to be not so much a win win situation but a win lose situation depending upon where you were in the job spectrum and american
12:20 pm
industry which had certain protections certain guarantees and like medical payments and pension plans surely the worker in chad didn't have this kind of protection and naturally these jobs cost more than they would have the same job was bestowed upon in the country that didn't have the modern. incentives that are to be found in the united states this cost millions of jobs and so what turned out to be wise to most of the a win win situation turned out to be a win lose situation with the corporations being the main winners larry some interest and the workers the losers some interesting points you've all of ace good to have you on the program i five out of times and i have a thank you spent on out saying larry pattis director of the kind of stuff i'm starting to. thanks for joining us there from washington d.c.
12:21 pm

12:22 pm
assad government and the opposition to bring about an end to violence in the country with. the resolutions we would approve to send a strong message to the syrian regime should in fact be addressed to both sides things aren't just black and white there and the anti-government protesters in syria are not followers of some refined european models of democracy some of them are to put it straight extremists and some might even be called terrorists the situation is not that simple and we have to take into account the balance of different forces and interests russia may support certain moves but only if they don't boil down to the one sided condemnation of the government and president assad we should send a strong message calling on all the conflicting parties to come to the negotiating table start talks and stop the bloodshed. well russia has opposed the sanctions that have been put in place on syria including the most recent ones imposing a boil embargo saying that more time. should be given to the assad government to
