we kowtow. to the. palestinian demonstrations ripple across the world as the international community puts a weight behind the space even if the american president promises to veto any vote in a few moments and i'll bring you more. today the united states of america is a bully has forced spending limits says it's will talk to the iranian president within a job ahead of his speech at the u.n. general assembly the scores of policemen and passers by are injured in a powerful sort of twin blasts near a regional police headquarters in the capital of the russian republic of dagestan. al jazeera as a director general resides due to rumors he's linked to the cia critics say that
6:01 am
explains the switching u.s. attitude towards the based on news network. worldwide news live from the heart of moscow this is r.t. with me role research showing president barack obama has personally sworn to veto any u.n. resolution recognizing a free and independent palestinian state his comments came in during a face to face meeting with the leader of the palestinian autonomy who nevertheless about to cross ahead with this country's bid on friday. has more on the palestinian perspective i don't expect. today here in ramallah it's the second day that thousands of people have taken to the streets right now at a gathering in the aisle mccotter which is where the former palestinian leader yasser arafat is buried they will continue with these peaceful protests of course
6:02 am
most of it tension is on tomorrow when that vote is put forward at the united nations relations we're hearing is that the american president barack obama has an image with the palestinian president arafat now he to try to convince the palestinian president to drop the palestinian bid for statehood and not to take it to the security council tomorrow friday that he has failed to do that is what the american president was hoping is that the palestinians would rather just approach the general assembly and such a move would have been largely symbolic not as important as it would be approaching the security council but about saying that he's going to head to the security council despite the criticism from the american president what the american president was saying was that they need still this to be negotiations this is a position that israel maintains and only after negotiations and peace talks are on the table can there be any kind of discussion around some kind of palestinian state in the clear about this point is a point that is with the way to here across ramallah and the risk of palestine and
6:03 am
that is there to great case of negotiations between the palestinians and the israelis have yielded nothing and hence we will see tomorrow the palestinian president approaching the security council having said that though it does seem as if a vast has vowed down to some kind of pressure because he will not be pushing the security council for a vote tomorrow and this has been criticized by some palestinians saying that this should be a vote as soon as possible now the french president nicolas sarkozy has also stayed at the united nations should accept the palestinian bid to be the americans the president obama was silent on this while television was asked white house style of course and one of the things i tell it is afraid of is that the palestinians once they have membership in the united nations won't. access to the international criminal court and such acts is will allow them to take these raids to court over disputes over land over the way they've been treated over the whole issue of occupation in addition to that we know that eight out of the fifteen members of the
6:04 am
security council happy to pay they are prepared to vote in favor of a palestinian state india brazil china south africa as well as russia have all given the nod so it does seem as if the future to curation of a palestinian state by and large has the support of the international community it is really the americans of this stage that are coming out right with a bomb his word but he is going to veto the vote the move here remains euphoric people really feeling that a change of history people feeling that this is a very important moment in the palestinian struggle but it's not only here in ramallah it's right across the west bank we are seeing similar such celebrations in hebron in nablus in pity him in a host of other palestinian cities the outpouring of support for this palestinian state is also reverberating around the world all full of orthodox jews in new york showed they support there were various celebrations in london and in paris and in
6:05 am
nam and in a number of other european cities now these may be army is on high alert it has moved into the west bank it is particularly consumed that extremist white when israeli state is will use this as an opportunity to provoke violence because of course the state is maintained that under no circumstances will they ever recognize a palestinian state and we are receiving warring reports stateless to speak provoking palestinians party's policy of the us like it's more than the single body of the united nations are violating the pluralism of the world group that's the view of the iranian president. spoke to us on the situation in palestine. this is the continuation of suppressing the rights of the powers. people and the palestinian nation they are people like all the other nations they must have the right to determine their own destiny they must have the right to choose their destiny on the other hand if the united nations is truly pluralistic in its makeup
6:06 am
then why would they allow a country to see itself and speak of itself as the chief of the united nations a pluralistic representative body and also why can they dictate if the united states is a truly single member of a much larger body and it should have a single vote and why does that vote all that pressure to carry so much more weight and you know what i think you unfold in less than thirty minutes from now right here. and there later on a thursday the iranian president is due to address the u.n. general assembly however many american politicians and some protestors outside the united nations are opposed to. even being there in the first place that is christian explores why iran is considered public enemy number one to somebody. just about everywhere you look at iran continues to develop nuclear weapons someone whether politician or pundit are controlled by
6:07 am
a fanatical regime is beating the drums of war how close are we to the point of no return well i think we may be past the point of no return in the sense that iran does have inside the country everything it needs to produce a nuclear weapon that point of no return often exaggerated according to journalist seymour hersh whose in-depth articles recently this one in the new yorker has illustrated time and time again the lack of evidence of a nuclear threat from iran the rhetoric though has resulted in widespread support for harsher actions against the country we support the sanctions program that's the sign to stop the punishment is. aimed at stopping the iranians from doing something we know we know they're not doing thank sions called for repeatedly by the obama administration so let me be clear iran's nuclear and ballistic missile activity poses a real threat not just to the united states but to all runs neighbors and our allies curse compares president obama's added to toward iran to bush and cheney's policy
6:08 am
toward iraq they wanted to punish they wanted to make a case against iraq a bit like the politics. so we made a case about nuclear weapons we were afraid they were talking about mushroom clouds make a case to go to war. and to war america went. many worry it could happen as well in iran if rhetoric becomes reality iran is in a very perilous position and it's obvious that the crosshairs are on them squarely if anyone wants to know how it would begin to look no further than those hoping to have their finger on the button here's john mccain four years ago that old beach boys song bomb iran. and history does in fact repeat itself with the greatest threat. to the security the world is a nuclear iran and iran is a country that has killed more american men and women in uniform in iraq in afghanistan than the iraqis and the afghanistan this is last month g.o.p.
6:09 am
presidential debate in iowa only one candidate strayed from the script just think of how many nuclear weapons surround iraq did chinese are there d.e.v.'s is the pakistan is here why wouldn't it be natural that they might want to weapons there'd be internationally they'd be given more respect but one man given very little respect on u.s. soil iranian president mahmoud ahmadinejad number one villain for so many this is the. last year the group united against nuclear iran put these posters up all over new york city perpetuating the idea of a hostile iran before the rest of the economy is sinking and the military industrial complex grows and grows and grows in other words war is good business more it may also be good business to take a closer look at the way the narrative unfolds this time around to ask when you hear the drums of war being beaten yet again if it is in fact

a matter of preparedness and process or if it is simply propaganda. in washington christine for sound r.t. . all right i'll just twenty two minutes past the hour now here in moscow and still to come in the program. rather well to watch to go watch the sky in the next few days an old satellite it's on its way back to earth but it's not expected to land in an orderly fashion or even in one piece for that matter stay with us to find out if a reign of space debris is on the way. a powerful double blast has hit the capital of the russian republic of dagestan injuring at least sixty people many of whom were just mia passes by both ones are believed to be planted underneath parked cars near the regional police headquarters our correspondent sara foote has details on. say. sixty people in the thing that happened last night the first explosion happening at
6:11 am
about midnight. the second. now the majority of days in. possible police personnel. possibly the first explosion that was a truck. that didn't happen. just maybe later when they come to the area the second incident last night the head of the regional police is tapping it is going to cave in and that resulted in the death of his this. is yet unknown whether these two in the. thirty's the studying. the village the staff meeting the people sat by violence many many is linked to islamic. major fighting in that region has to some extent can show disease at the healthy sign of starting to bring stability to that region. that

needs to be especially if we see a number of this happening. again last night. find the latest video news updates on that story. police. for. over a decade. and find all of why front. prototype underwear. last an entire week well. not everything lasts so long. life is out of control and plunging back towards earth but u.s. artists are only left guessing where it will land with an almighty. crash to be anywhere on the planet. russian cosmonauts to ponder whether we should be watching

. it weighs almost six thousand kilograms has been monitoring the make up of our atmosphere for nearly two decades and the best estimates suggest that on friday it's set to return home with a bump nothing is upper atmosphere research satellite or you a.r.s was decommissioned in two thousand and five and is now headed for reentry and most of the satellite which is the site of a pulse will burn up in the atmosphere however as many as twenty six chunks of the stricken research vehicle will strike the earth seventy percent of our planet is covered with water the sort of danger to us is fairly limited nasa though have announced the potential strike zone covering most of the globe so where it will come down is really anyone's guess what is known as that it won't fall in one place there bri is expected to be spread over eight hundred kilometers of fairly worrying stuff but how much of the space junk is there up there ready to come back down
6:14 am
there are now over twenty thousand sizeable objects being tracked in its orbit a problem is the due to a process called the kessler effect that number is growing exponentially. each collision shatters an object into smaller pieces and those pieces hit other objects if it keeps continuing at the same rate two hundred years from now we won't be able to get anything into an earth orbit as they just won't be any room. for them looking up at the sky from earth it can be hard to imagine the problems posed by space debris but when we look through powerful telescopes like this one the true situation comes into focus the job of monitoring all of the debris in space is an important one not just for the future but for those currently in space on board the international space station over six hundred times a year the i s s has to take a vase of action to get out of the grave debris and if that isn't possible there's
6:15 am
only one course of action left. for the crew to take shelter. in the most protected area of the ship the safest place is the capsule in the so use module so that's where the entire crew hides when the station is considered to be in danger but. with no viable way of giving space a spring clean we have to rely on the atmosphere to burn up most ball and debris however in large cases like that of the usa our experts get a little concerned and we. will use rocket into the atmosphere people can calculate when and where it's going to fall but it's impossible to predict where the pieces of a satellite that has broken apart and going to end up it shouldn't be too worried about a chunk of stuff like landing in your backyard however should happen nothing are warning against taking pieces as a souvenir not because the stocks think it's u.s. government property and they want it back you a.r.s cost seven hundred fourteen million dollars and if you fancy making some of that cash back for yourself on my

bookies have been taking bets on whether it'll hit pacific or the atlantic oceans peter oliver r.t. r t is coming to you live from moscow it wasn't all that long ago that the al-jazeera news network was considered by washington as quote evil but the white house has certainly changed its tune recently praising its ground breaking coverage but little surprise so critics after wiki leaks revelations exposed that director general of the qatar based network of having links to see eight and promoting him to hurry quit using is an architect of the story. right now al jazeera english is seen as two million american households al-jazeera or the island is not in isolation anymore the channels in your face coverage of the violent turmoil of the middle east libya's emerging civil war has grounded cousy prime time slot with the u.s. and recent week you leaks claim al-jazeera has now resigned director general had

ties to the cia what the detail is basically the u.s. government has been monitoring. well they went to the web. and the. inappropriate. or they did mike and then they would sit down. and he would be stepping into the open sea a member of the royal family fueling fears domus voice will get milder and the arabic service was criticized for being part and seeming to reflect certain elements of qatari policy. of new angles came much earlier this year when arab regimes started to crumble puckers square has become a pivotal landmark in the arab world a symbol of the spring uprising but the events here and here i think you know the
6:18 am
turning point for al-jazeera i want to look i can tie american channel labeled extremist is now called real media by the state department their coverage is just in line with u.s. support of a series of regime changes in. the middle east and how to get it from the beginning useful concept into an international. network and that they did but the channel used to send messages from osama to obama called al qaeda t.v. what belgium. is doing is vicious inaccurate and excused now al-jazeera is getting why the sound out some local u.s. networks but soon it might be coming to your cable box right here in our area this is a situation where the media has me kind of almost a combat zone in itself and who controls the media we see it with flaps and news we
6:19 am
see it with other channels around the world now we're seeing it with all just syria i think the u.s. will try and fluence even more and perhaps raise more al-jazeera has been a leader in that are literally changing people's minds an attitude to see if it's something you can use it and or is it and he said no way our team. these days is interested in maintaining good relations with the u.s. that's according to media analyst filters al-jazeera on the contrary. some years were quite closely with the united states government remember that the pens wanted security from the united states has. missile systems space that it has a large u.s. military base. so it's certainly for about five or six years now the income to if you lose weight for something and how to steer it it suited. and it suited.

its anti american stance was known about on the arab street because that of course if catron gave. a great deal of popularity so unfortunately these cables reveal the reality that there had been some sort of you know negotiations and indeed you know relatively good relations so in that sense i think the. time for had to be sacrificed once and to come out in the open. twenty minutes past the hour here in the russian capital time for the world update now here on our city and a u.s. in death row in green executed by lethal injection in the state of georgia for the one nine hundred eighty nine shooting of an off duty policeman troy davis was convicted of the motor and nine hundred ninety one maintain that he was innocent the weapon was never discovered and d.n.a. test failed to link him to the killer seven out of nine with this is also revoked their testimony a later date however prosecutors maintain that they never had doubts about the

a missile defense shield in europe ignores moscow's calls for legal guarantees of safety rapidly drawn up agreements concerning the shield or an attempt to get it up and running before anyone realizes that's according to russia's envoy to nato. it's a small beach just with what it was the u.s. is trying to secure agreements with countries where the missile shield has to be placed turkey romania and poland but they haste with which they're trying to seal these deals can mean they want to create a new reality with certain european states before they rest of europe has made clear its stance on the shield then they'll pin western europe down to the fact of its existence i think our western partners are trying to get ahead of themselves they aren't providing any legal going to use concerning their missile defense they are constantly asking questions about our so-called technical nuclear weapons we won't discuss that with technical potential before the rascal's merican hears from

6:24 am
why are the markets today is it just that. it's partly the it's also the realisation the central banks around the world who simply running out of a militia in here the fed didn't add any new money last night it merely as you said switched the juror ation of its support for you so it didn't add any new money it's only going to have an incremental effect a very marginal effect in reducing long term interest rates but the great problem the american economy faces right now is not the cost of money doesn't matter that the cost of money is already at historic lows so lory it by another few basis points will make any difference at all the problem is a lack of demand a lack of confidence. ongoing declines in house prices and a feeling really that the political system has ground to a halt so fiddling around with the cost of money is doing nothing and that's what
6:25 am
markets are beginning to realize and do you think that will see a bottom to the market is there a way to predict what that will be. there's always a bottom but we are the problem is looking for in identifying it well in advance and i think what we can say now is that the s. and p. five hundred is trading at an index level around eleven hundred. go back two years at the depth of the global financial crisis and that was trading at six six six an easy number to remember so potentially if the economy is going to go back in it's a very big if but if the economy is going to go back to the type of deep recession that we saw then it's quite possible that the market could fall another forty percent from current levels and it's that that spruiking investors not because they believe that we're going to go into that scale of recession but now at least they know what they know what the bottom looks like they know how far away it is and you know now there is also fear that the euro will collapse. i don't think there's
6:26 am
a fear that the euro will collapse i think there is a growing belief a ninety percent certainty that greece will default on its debt but the very great likelihood is that will be an orderly process and that greece will stay within the euro and i think there will be as many countries in the euro at the end of this year as they were at the beginning of the year i'm also pretty confident that the end of two thousand and twelve no one will have left the euro the problem is that in solving the problems of greek and other countries sovereign debt is going to hurt the banking system quite considerably and the banking system across europe won't be able to finance the recovery in the same way that it's done previously mentioned here but there's been a run on and there isn't a market currency is why others are such a good girl rest. well you're absolutely right to point out the emerging markets we've had some spectacular declines notably in brazil but also elsewhere in asia of
6:27 am
over the course of the last few days and this is because investors sought during the previous process of quantitative easing the vestas bought emerging market currencies they bought emerging market stocks because that's where the fastest growth in the world was but even amongst those large fast growing economies we're starting to see a bit of disappointment creeping in brazil even moved to cut rates a couple of weeks ago so although the absolute levels of growth are going to be higher in those emerging markets the surprises the new news is coming on the downside and investors are responding to those negative surprises by exiting the markets which they were mostly long of and we've seen some spectacular declines in the emerging market stocks emerging market currencies and i don't think that process has got a bit further to run so absolute terms it's still ok but the momentum is very much to the downside. prices go ahead are for next saturday at last else bank thank you
