. thanks for staying with us here on our team the palestinian euphoria after their statehood bid at the u.n. is beginning to fade as the security council prepares to discuss the case later today the palestinian authority has given the u.n. two weeks to decide on the issue after accusations that the u.s. was intimidating member states to bog down the bids and the bid in bureaucracy the shadow of the us a veto also hangs heavy over the proceedings obama vowed to prevent the recognition of a free palestinian state without the approval of israel or pro palestinian activists nor oday questions why israel would want peace with a state it's comfortably occupied for very long. as palestinians we have a very high confounds of national pride at this moment and even though we know the veto is most likely coming out of there next week or the other that really makes no
12:13 am
difference but there is a very high sense of national achievement at this point because for once. after those very disappointing years of the so-called peace process the political leadership and the popular popular public opinion are in line and they're in an on one side of the political debate if you will going back to negotiations is not something palestinians are posed on principle but if we go back to negotiations with our occupiers and that's what israel is without any terms of reference without israel clearly committing international law clearly committing to its obligations according to international law and relevant un resolutions then it's purely pointless. events at the un have seen criticism leveled at the u.s. with many accusing washington of pandering to israeli interests this is a new report has emerged claiming president obama approved the transfer of fifty five i take longer buster bombs to israel just months into his term of office

something that even the bush administration had refused to do according to author and historian william blair it's all about campaign funding well the us has been given is we are or none of. this is not new it's not based on large europe yes a rational explanation that is not what he. wrote his will because the money he gets the us the us can count yes one can do well here and you huber who are. not your only rationale here as. long as you go. the u.k. government has granted police the right to prevent far right groups from marching through five london boroughs for thirty days scotland yard said it's applied for the ban over fears of violence and disorder planned by the english defense league earlier this month as are his or emma reports it's prompted concerns that a dangerous precedent has been set in terms of police power and freedom of

expression. view of workers activists on the home office on marching is clear it's an attack on the basic democratic rights in this country through september in six areas of london anyone marching like these people did last winter is liable to be arrested and fined or even imprisoned. the ban was prompted by plans by the anti muslim english defense league team here in luton in february to march through tower hamlets the area with the highest concentration of muslims in the country but instead of banning one march on one day the home office banned all marches in six pyros for an entire month activist richard seymour sees a wider motive once the bias past doesn't necessarily mean to say that mortars are going to happen it just means that the police to have more powers and that's
12:16 am
a part of the wider problem that if you're restricted to a static ration the police are right to pen you in. a restroom very slowly. with small offenses or non-offensive as these people behind me are amongst the lucky few they still can march just by pure accident of geography we're here in lumberton which is not one of the six bars affected by the ban but if as many fear the government extend and widen the ban to take in more parts of london the scenes that you see behind me both small and large marches through london and many other cities across the country could be a thing of the past the band comes hot on the heels of widespread rioting in many english cities in august it also coincides with the introduction of government austerity measures which some say amounts to the dismantling of the entire welfare state many say public fear of civil unrest is being limit plated to prevent unions from turning out to protest fierce cuts and pat. reagan from the workers

revolutionary party says it's just the tip of the iceberg to talk about area curfews that talk not about shutting down facebook social network sites they're talking about it or you'll see the war measures because what they're doing in britain is creating a historic change inevitably. a majority of the population will oppose them office company stock market share it's powerless to prevent people from covering the workers' organizations are just standing there people to be able to march to make a statement as the unions in march when will the new culture of the million people turned out sequentially because activists say that's exactly what the government's trying to stop just in terms of where we are at the moment in this country with the process of the stereotyping pushed through by the government trade unions the one thing major blocks opposed on public order legislation those tend to be used

against striking workers or something that's been very clear in those dispersants in recent examples of people being pulled off the good lines and not to obviously we can say resistance to the cuts freedom of expression and association are enshrined in u.k. and european law in the u.k. renowned for its powerful union organizations but the ban gives the police also a power to step in and arrest demonstrates it merely for exercising their right to speak out against the government and that's a dangerous precedent to set your enemies r.t. london. take a look now at some other stories making headlines across the globe libya's ruling national transitional council is reportedly struggling to form a new government as fighting continues in a city of sirte still loyal to the thawing leader moammar gadhafi meanwhile in the capital tripoli a masquerade was discovered estimated to contain almost thirteen hundred bodies and

years old the other side of the american told brass accusations against pakistani military and intelligence community has once again demonstrated to what extent the american intelligence leadership that has moved from langley to the pens again has completely lost the dynamics and the overall picture of a clear and present danger to the interests of the united states in the region specifically in afghanistan and pakistan in the last day cave a us foreign policy in pakistan has suffered a total and complete moron by its nature of threats and complaints and military and financial incentives turned out to be totally counterproductive

and personally it has made their highly respected flag officer admiral michael mullen and his new boss leon panetta one of the most popular laughingstocks and scapegoats of the u.s. failure in afghanistan. interview and sports coming up but kareen is first with the business news stay with us here on r.t. . our welcome to our business here or not and thanks for joining me here crane says it has achieved significant progress in natural gas talks with russia president from ghana college met russian leaders late saturday to discuss the terms of class transit and supplies the parties agreed to hold an interim government meeting in ukraine tobar claims it is paying too much under the current gas supply deal wants to change the terms russia says it's prepared to provide a discount but we turn once and state ukraine's pipeline network conferencing soon
12:24 am
enough from the national energy security fund believes it's a simple solution for kenya. we must solve the problem of. who will do the the problem will be the proper it will this pipeline in my opinion is the most realistic way to give russia at least fifty percent in this pipeline system and russia will give serious discount because it's official position do they measure of this from the gas price in ukraine will be the same as in russia now the price and rational use every price is approaching the one found it when to do it so three times cheaper than ukraine it's a very simple solution but if you crean. will be disagree with this proposal of the future green will still insist on discount without solving the problem of pipelines system so my idea is very simple if ukraine doesn't want to do property on pipeline system soon ukraine will feel no other choice but to give broker they want all
