anticipation of turns to anger the mood in the west bank the palestinian bid for statehood of the u.n. looks like falling short speculation deals already been struck between the palestinian and u.s. leaders. we talk exclusively to mahmoud ahmadinejad the head of the iranian leaders a u.n. street swallowed we examine why he's being a demonized in the united states. and an old nasa satellite is plunging uncontrollably towards earth with hundreds of fragments expected to come crashing down but u.s. scientists still have no idea where.

twenty four hour news live from moscow's city center this is r.t. with me role research president barack obama has personally swarms a veto any u.n. resolution recognizing a free and independent palestinian state his comments came during a face to face meeting with the leader of the palestinian autonomy who nevertheless about to press ahead with his country's on friday parties policy and i reports from our. but i have been talking to people here and mixed with this if it is a sense of anger and disappointment at the american president barack obama's staunch they feel that his address at the united nations yesterday was overwhelmingly in support of this well in fact some of the palestinians i've been speaking to say that they feel that that speech was an attempt to try and run away from the united nations but in and if it's to try and safe place and avoid some kind of embarrassment people have been telling me fairies it's

a feel that america has double standards because president obama who just last year says that this year they would be an independent palestine and now he is the person that the police find in preventing this from happening people also telling me that the language that obama used in terms of the hour it's going to use words such as never teach people power like he was a great source of arab spring and now he is the one in the international community that has the power to veto a palestinian state i'm going forward places news we've had is that a bomb that didn't meet with abbas the palestinian president he tried to convince him not to take this to the united nations security council that's involving people that with the general assembly of course that would have been more widely that the security council is so much more important and they were all fifteen members of the security council at least not in that he states have shown overwhelming support among them was the old china russia south africa india one of their own supporters

palestinian but now they just seem to be in some kind of compromise on the cards because while we understand that abbas will still be physician this puts to morrow he has agreed to some kind of delay in terms of when the folks will happen and palestinians here in ramallah saying that they are very disappointed by this it would not want to see any kind of today's debate such as united nations diplomats of missing could see them reviewing this whole process for another few months we're not there yet until a decision is made to also take on the french president nicolas sarkozy. he has said that the united nations should fix it palestine as a monitor member observer not president obama has been quiet about this but as you can well imagine the israelis are angry this is the last thing they would want they would not want to see the palestinians have any kind of access to international bodies that the international criminal court the major palestinians will be able to prosecute the israelis occupying their land. that is our policy reporting right now or to discuss this further we are joined from ramallah life with breena director

general of our palestinian human rights organization i'm going to bring thank you for joining us today president obama had initially campaigned as a u.s. president and wanted a reset of relations with the arab world to stay still a solution peace and even one thousand nine hundred sixty seven borders and i promise is to veto a palestinian they just want those obama really want to see happen with the situation is it possible their motives here behind the upcoming two thousand and twelve presidential election perhaps. the israeli lobby the jewish lobby in washington. i think this is not a free election campaign for burma and for the good and even for the poor yesterday you saw the governor of texas he came also down to be in new york just to have his campaign and they think you know they are dealing with the palestinian issue as part of their campaign and they put aside all the principled on the values and all the standards that they have been raising since so long and really you know after

the arab spring when they. believe. they are calling now to intervene in syria this is completely contradict what they see. america as the other superpower and they can take you know easy to and even they can attack on us like this is what they try to send to us but they're you know that's already in trouble there are multiple partly multiple parties are the united nations here israel and america seem to be the only two that are standing up in opposition to the palestinian bid for statehood how does america look in the global eye when when most of the world support the palestinians getting their autonomous state. i think this is the contradict you know and everybody you know over the war if you look at the us is really bad you know in the war and there are selectively taking cases here or there and by the language of the palestinians right to

self-determination this is a big big issue i think and this is a threat for security and peace also not the israeli intervening in that issue but also the americans they are caught of this three upon peace and security over the world this is the case. it's a very bad the but for me i think it's. it's a normal things it's a normally practice from the u.s. we saw them in the last two three decades we want to know what they do regarding this this case they support israel unconditionally. they completely act. as you're saying what you're saying over the last three decades washington d.c. has indeed supported israel unconditionally and in fact during the netanyahu the israeli prime minister's address to the united nations there are many times during his address that american senators and it kind of stood up and applauded him and now we are hearing reports that the palestinians will proceed with their paid to

the security council but won't insist on an immediate vote now some say by not getting an immediate vote that prevents america from vetoing it but it could mean it's going to be delayed by weeks for this fight it doesn't mean by some chance of mahmoud abbas has given in to u.s. pressure. really to be honest with you i don't know but i have a hope the. key to proceed in this way even if there is no vote on computing it's good to proceed i think it's simply. for the rights of the palestinians for his people and for the other ups and for all the fighters for justice over the war this is i look at his. process is a simple nick. i know that even if we get two more communications for the security

council we will not practice our sovereignty. exercise also flew over our land here without ending the completion we know that well we know that we have a long. way to walk but this is a simple issue and the united states they don't want even to give the palestinians any hope any hope it's not just to him to commission to look but to give the palestinians hope that the international community support the right of palestinians took ceasar is there now as we are running running on time here i ask your forgiveness interrupting you but we are low on time if indeed to the end of the day and in the coming weeks the palestinian bid for statehood is a decline and denied by the un if there was a chance of a violent response in the west bank by the palestinians do you think israel could use that as an excuse to say you see we told you so we cannot both coexist peacefully. you know i take in

kind of seniors everywhere. they use a cell closer to your new palestinian and i think. the israelis you know they have their own thermocline and their plan is to imax moments and to create facts on the ground but this is a doesn't help you know for long term for a long term we have a big code and more than hope we have a faith that we were get it because the future is for justice if you terms for human rights and even if they don't like what i see you know the you i live in i think when we keep you know struggling for the rights what's the next. mission will be really i don't know but i think when we put everything together i have a concern that the supplies they will carry out a massacre or a big attack against palestinians and killing not just our proteins their properties or damaging their proponents is this is the facts no longer and this is the concern that we we have another think is maybe this really they will declare

the only exception for jordan valley and other areas and this is part of the plan it's in the fact to the iraqis that maybe they want to put it in the jury now and i need to hold our eyes and we'll be watching the u.n. in new york very very closely over the coming days and i'm coming wish on jeopardy in director general of al hakim palestinian human rights organization thank you very much. u.s. acts like it's more than just a single united nations body by abusing a purely as i'm of the world group that's the view of the iranian president mahmoud ahmadinejad who are spoke to us on the palestinian situation. this is the continuation of suppressing the rights of the palestinian people and the palestinian nation and 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 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 then why does that vote all that pressure carry so much more weight. and as the u.s. action continues there in new york i do stay with us here on r.t. for the latest developments for us and the reaction from the middle east. but a quarter of a murderer and saying he's worse than hitler just some of the accusations aimed at the iranian president mark. this by activists in new york who are opposed to his visit to the u.n. general assembly he's a christian friends are now looks at why america views iran as a public enemy number one. just about everywhere you look at iran continues to develop nuclear weapons someone whether politician or pundit or controlled by the 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 have illustrated time and time again the lack of evidence of a nuclear threat from iran the rhetoric though has resulted in widespread support for harsh actions against the country we support a station's program that's the design to stop the punishment is. aimed at stopping the iranians from doing something we know we know they're not doing things he has called for repeatedly by the obama administration so let me be clear iran's nuclear and ballistic missile actively poses a real threat not just to the united states but to ron's neighbors and our allies hurst compares president obama's added to toward iran to bush and cheney's policy

toward iraq they want to punish they want to make a case against iraq they didn't write the politics. so we made a case about nuclear weapons we were if you remember 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 that a very perilous position 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 the 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 iran is a country that has killed more american men and women in uniform in iraq in afghanistan and iraq each and the afghanistan ten this is last month g.o.p.

presidential debate in iowa only one candidate strayed from the script just think of how many nuclear weapons surrounding iraq did chinese are there the indians or the pakistan is there 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 first so many. words. last year the group united against nuclear iran put these posters up all over new york city perpetuating the idea of a hostile iran while the rest of the economy is sinking and the military industrial complex grows and grows and grows in other words war is good business not 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 the party. started now just on a quarter past the hour here in the russian capital of us check of the world. some headlines from around the world the yemeni security forces have used mortar fire against anti-government protesters in the capital sanaa at least three people died sixteen were good but fighting broke a cease fire that was agreed upon on tuesday following three days of bloodshed more than eighteen people have been killed since sunday when a crackdown against the regime protests was renewed all this despite reports the vice president's it's considering a transfer of power that's actually something that's been a key demand from demonstrators. greeks are protesting against a new round of us there. he cuts the country public transport workers and taxi drivers around a twenty four hour strike at snarling traffic in the capital gains the protest comes a day after the greek government announced a more tax hikes and pension cuts in the latest move to reduce the country's budget

deficit it is a key condition to get another portion of the e.u. bailout. or the greek finance minister has been trying to restore public saying the country has no choice but to bring in austerity cuts but his comments haven't gone down well with the greek people nor our financial pundits max kaiser and stacey her but the full program coming your way later today right here on r.t. . if we want to stabilize the situation if we want to default you don't want to avert default the bankers want you to avert default the words are precise in their meaning and their intent is all the population into to accepting a poison chalice news you have or that's what exactly he's using the word we to the people of greece losing weight acting as if their their desire should be the same as what the bankers and bondholders want he's not

a we he's not great. because reporters voted today here without now world markets fell fueling fears of a double dip recession could be closer than we think let's cross over a lot of businesses are scared off to get more details on this are you really are hired to tell us what's frightening the investors this time well hello or oriented there's panic selling on the markets and puts in the decks of both losing about four percent and it's also a sea of red in russia with the r.t.s. posting significant losses of almost seven percent well on wednesday investors worldwide were anticipating the outcome of the federal reserve meeting which could have signaled. another stimulus measures to prop up a second u.s. economy however got quite said news as the signals significant downside risks to the economy and we can say is also who does downgrade three u.s.

banks also added pressure on the markets and investors in russia are also quite bearish as the ruble continues to fall against the major european currencies and it has reached its lows level against the u.s. dollar in about two years or you will get us more details from you in a less than a five minutes time here when i see you thanks very much for. the rights to stay with us here. satellite is out of control it's plunging a back towards earth and us scientists have been left guessing as to where it will land and it could be anywhere on the planet he's put all of us sort out some top russian astronomers and cosmonauts to look at whether we should be watching our heads. 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 as after research satellite or you a.r.s. was decommissioned in two thousand and five and is now headed for reentry most of

the satellite which is the size of a bus 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 so the danger to us is fairly limited nothing 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 off fairly worrying stuff but how much of this is there up there ready to come back down there are now over twenty thousand sizeable objects being tracked in its orbit the problem is the juju a process called the kessler effect that number is growing exponentially with 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 a number of orbit as i just won't be in the room just 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 the international space station over six hundred times a year the i s s has to take a very severe action to get out of the way of temporary but if that isn't possible there's only one course about action left. the crew take shelter. in the most protected area of the shit the safest place is the capsule in the so use module it shouldn't be too worried about a chunk of satellite landing in your backyard however should that happen nothe there 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 online bookies have been taking bets on whether it'll hit the pacific or the atlantic oceans peter oliver r.t. . keeping pieces of a satellite is not a wise thing to do not just because it is the property of the us government but also because it's every post a direct and deadly danger to anyone who comes close to it or there's also according to need from the moscow's academy of geo political problems. with experts to this type of satellite and over to truly you need a lot of energy to keep such a satellite operational and american so used radioactive to turn into this metal and other parts of the satellite will burn in the atmosphere only moments and it will end up on earth and it's a deadly danger to humans for instance exposure to pluto new leads to cancer is. what i want to stay with us here in just a moment from now

a moment or two that is. the business. well the future of weapons grade plutonium is turned into a vital new research nuclear waste becomes a few will spring leaks of the environment and energy outposts among the ends of the earth russian scientists lead the way in making these innovations a reality to future reference here's a nuclear believes the peaceful revolution in public energy on technology obsolete we've got the future covered.

hello and a very warm welcome to our business update on our team global markets diving following comments from the federal reserve on wednesday for some fool bank warns it so significant downside risk in the world's biggest economy at the same time the fact unveils new measures to avoid a double dip recession in order to further suppress long term interest rates it plans to switch four hundred billion dollars of short term bonds into longer maturities. what the federal reserve is trying to accomplish with that is to make it more attractive for businesses to invest number one and also for for consumers to invest in mortgages because you should remember the federal reserve as did not do it it did not increase the size of its balance sheet but that shifted some of its investment from short term to long term assets which means that again the

overall balance sheet was not changed which means that if this situation wanted to deteriorate further globally i think we can count. you expect from the federal reserve to actually start buying even more securities which in that sense do qualify as so they still have some firepower and i think that given where the global economy is going it should not be surprising if the federal reserve some later. a little bit later in the game actually goes to doubt the last thing that they can do. the margin markets are at a fourteen month low and the russian ruble is trading about thirty two to the dollar it's worst for two years nick larson from national australia bank explains why not just as a pulling out of a martian economy it's. during the previous process of quantitative easing investors 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 but exiting the markets which they were most of. let's have a look at the numbers now oil is falling for a second day as investors speculate that he will demand in the u.s. will falter but so it is not trading at eighty two dollars a barrel while brant plant is at one hundred seven dollars a barrel in europe the markets are also taking a beating in london on the german dax the losing of the four percent s. hour and pile here in russia as we've been saying it's a sea of red the archie earth is down almost seven percent while the myself is losing about six percent let's have a look at some of the individual share moves in the might six energy majors are among the top losers right now gas prominently is down five point three percent

state front row maker rosneft is sharing six point five percent and banking stocks also under pressure with the second largest lender dropping about six percent. russian equities are having a tough week finding any momentum of. capital believes investors should look to gas stocks well the world price is still high. all pros continued to be robust as we saw in the past weeks the display of the global to all promise is the new book. which means the russian girl sleeves from. the sea the mystic means. be weakening. be a special situation story nuclear was by birth city asians which can support the name as well. although as you know i think it will be a burning snow and most of snow in russia and he pretty much everybody there's

always sort of holes and they will be more safe unfortunately. and in other news russian port touch mine that were all clearly has increased. by sixty one percent to almost eight hundred million dollars hard fertilizer prices and low energy costs were behind the better than expected performance the company pledged to pay half of its profit in diffidence this year. russia's result is reportedly in talks with iran over building a woman you want in the country the world's top of your producer could launch production with an annual capacity of three hundred fifty thousand tonnes the project could boost resource overall capacity by nine percent but it was complicated by gas sanctions over iran this include a ban for u.s. citizens to do business in the country and sanctions for countries or violate the involved go result doesn't have any production in the here arts but the world's largest economy makes up almost a tenth of those sales revenue. so we have time for knowledge joining me for
