people injured. parties interview with a known chomsky linguist author and the mit professor is coming up for you next. r.t. sitting down with for over an ounce scholar at linguist author and mit professor noam chomsky professor chomsky thank you very much for taking time to speak with r.t. glad to be with you the first issue i want to speak with you about is the recent clashes that have taken place on wall street between americans who are turning out to demonstrate and police officers from what i read you recently sent a message to support the activists of this group called occupy wall street you've called them courageous and honorable you can you talk to me about your take on occupy wall street well as in the wall street is just a short him to the financial institutions the banks are bigger richard before
2:32 am
a corporate profits are retreating record levels for much of unemployment about the level of the great depression real unemployment these people are saying no let's blame the institutions behind them so fiscal policies like taxation. rules of corporate governance deregulation and so on it does set in motion a vicious cycle which is getting worse and worse in new york so the walk down the streets you can see a very serious poverty on the other hand phenomenal wealth right side by side the much like a third world country where you see if you go to so if there are enough with it meanwhile infrastructure is collapsing and schools are collapsing and all of that increases the. keeps the cycle going and then it's like rising well. it's about time for some purposes what may be in there in the coming year for the two thousand and twelve election is that many including yourself have speculated
2:33 am
and assume that the campaign spending for the u.s. election two thousand and twelve will exceed one billion dollars each for kennedy that isn't massive you know well even with money where does that come from well you know there's a lot of it comes from financial institutions but if you look at the two thousand and eight election it works one obama what. gave him the election was primarily financial institution contributions they prefer him to mckinnon expected to be paid back when they worked. and the next will be even worse and so that's only a part of it in parliamentary systems clued in our own up till maybe twenty years ago. positions of influence and suctioning part of an parliamentary system but care of a committee. comes from principle at least from experience seniority.
2:34 am
letters with contributions and so on that's gone now they're bought if you want to become to or to maybe. in the house or the senate you have to pay off the party to pay for it where do you get the money to pay for same pockets you don't so. provides even more influence to the already overwhelming influence of concentrated capital so it's harder harder to distinguish between the elected officials and. economic concentration it never was easy to distinguish i should say this is not something novel but now it's reaching the extreme level of what's left of america's democratic system if this is the process that has been cemented in what is really a blast from every angle not just take a look at public opinion they'll tell you. about two thirds of the public thinks
2:35 am
the entire congress ought to be thrown out. mean that it's going to happen no but it means that the system isn't working and the public knows. the popularity of favor ability rating for congress and single digit presidents not much higher and the same runs across all other institutions it's a very widespread sense that everything is going wrong that tells you the democrat . system is just not functioning now in fact i don't want to suggest that this is totally new so you go back a century and you can still predict throughout all this period pretty well the outcome of elections by campaign funding but there are degrees and now it's gotten extreme. the levels to which the us has departed from other top of the list societies are pretty remarkable you released a book recently. called nine eleven was there an alternative focusing on the us
2:36 am
assassination of osama bin ladin and that continuity you say between george w. bush and barack obama the killing of us on that laudanum interesting case it was done in such a way as to in europe pakistanis which is extremely dangerous that's the most dangerous country in the world and go into it with you they have a professional army committed to the sovereignty of pakistan the pakistanis were already overwhelmingly the american this shoots through the stratosphere the army is bitterly angry not only at the invasion of the country and the murder of someone on their soil but also that they're being. pressure forced to take part in an american war in afghanistan some of the
2:37 am
conservative military analysts who wrote about the bin laden assess nation i quoted some of them pointed out quite accurately that there's a shift between bush's policies and obama's and this bush bush's policy was to kidnap people. whatever you thought about them. take them to one ton of moer bug rum or some other torture chamber and try to extract some information out of them we know what it was like to describe it obama's policy is just to kill. killing them all over the world is target of assassination camp and you know to kidnap them and torture him you're still in. the bin laden assassination was a case in point it's hard to remember but there used to be a system of justice in the west which said that a person is a suspect until he's proven guilty of until then he's a suspect he's innocent until proven guilty well that's one now you just kill him
2:38 am
if you think they're guilty so he was apprehended. no resistance he was alone with his wife but a defense nothing. highly trained commandos could certainly have apprehended him and they didn't they were under orders to murder him and then toss his body into the ocean acts that are almost designed such a way as to increase and. hatred throughout the muslim world in fact and when anybody has got their eyes open you talk about the obama administration and how the u.s. actually is right now could be in fury the muslim world the arab world the obama administration has supported the tunisians has supported the egyptians has supported the libyans and the so-called arab spring the palestinians have officially submitted an application for u.n. membership and statehood the u.s.
2:39 am
says that they will cast a veto against it if they do because they believe that the record low shisha should take place between house and israel before there's an independent palestine first of all i have to make a qualification of the united states and its western allies did not support the egyptian and to newseum revolutions they opposed them they said they backed the internet as it was mostly france steer kone fix going to need to use the united states and britain they supported the dictators until the last minute and when. the army turned against them and it was no longer possible to support them and then they said ok what democracy is wonderful and then they move to try to ensure that the regimes would stay pretty much as they were and cites a very old pattern but putting that aside it's true that the united states announced that it would cast of the for about thirty five years the united states and israel have been rejecting
2:40 am
a political settlement that is supported by virtually the entire world the arab league the organization of islamic states which includes iran and hamas supports it almost no relevant party disagrees with it except that the united states and israel won't let it happen to have the fact that egypt right now and turkey have really suffered their relations with israel so that's an effect of the arab spring what that what's happening there are changes in the world what's happening is israel is getting former isolated i mean the u.s. is getting four isolated for example a couple months ago there was a meeting of the the all the gore people are pretty much on the economy and they've they've warned the government that they'd better accept something like this resolution because that is it otherwise israel will be as they put it south african artist even more isolated boycotts refusal of ships and so on and our economy will
2:41 am
collapse now it's interesting that israel is reacting cream on a choice of africa. if you look back at the history by about one hundred sixteen we have the records of south african foreign minister called in the american ambassador described this to him and said we don't really care as long as you back us because you're the one that matters and that's how it worked out right through the nineteen by the one nine hundred eighty s. you and the border you went to barca the corporations were pulling out. sanctions are all over the bully cuts they were doing for. the reagan administration was backing them. as long as the u.s. was supporting them and nothing happened then the u.s. withdrew support almost instantly apartheid collapsed saying it's in israel's best interest and the us still allowed this palestinian un membership stay with us for
2:42 am
thirty five years the same scenario which a murderer is now that has been for almost forty years there's a choice between security and expansion very clear choice israel is like other states is preferred for since the early seventy's it's had a choice between security and expansion can have peace but not with expansion into the territories which incidentally is recognized to be criminal but everyone including israel. they can get away with it as long as the most powerful state in the world backs them and as long as europe goes along europe is remarkably tolerantly them out like this but they don't like to step on the opponent also the masters so they go along so you know it's the quartet has backed the united states they picked tony blair you know i don't have to comment on him but then i might as well pick george bush to. bring the message to do what the united states tells you
2:43 am
to stop this nonsense about statehood and go back to negotiations with that's where we now stand and it's up to the people then just industrial countries to compel their governments to go along with the world professor chomsky thank you very much for your time. there's free. range means free risk free studio time free. old free broadcast quality video for your media projects a free media. tom. wealthy british stock.

2:46 am
are fighting for the last quarter final places today well new zealand the favorites have suffered a real blow with a serious injury to one of the more and. hello there you're watching the sport and these are the headlines while those in argentina reach the rugby cup will be the rugby world cup quarter finals why new zealanders stunned by the loss of the fly half dan carter the rest of the tournament. plus on the double born is brace for the nama against the blues up to second in the russian premier league. and in vegas now i want me share the lead going into the final day of the timberlake. start there with the rugby world cup while wales in argentina are the latest teams to reach the quarter finals of the world cup beating fiji fifty nine there with just minutes to go at the moment means
2:47 am
they will finish second behind south africa in pool would be while early argentina defeated georgia twenty five points to seven to progress from paul at the expense of scotland kicking off shortly is on against italy with both needing a victory to be sure of making the last day along with the straight from pull see wild pull a win is new zealand finished off the great matches with seventy nine fifteen thrashing of canada that win was overshadowed by the news the all blacks will be without flyhalf dan carter for the rest of the tournament he damage she's growing during a practice session on saturday. he's been a world class play for a long time probably one of the greatest players ever produced by this country this was going to be his pinnacle correct the world cup he's had a lot of focus on this tournament for a couple of years and has given stating that he can be involved in my. cards. and it's really important require the i'm superior to that to go out there and we
2:48 am
play the cards who do updates with them and the group obviously chatted with this news. i reserve the group of people who are very focused to doing this job right. nick has been explaining why he stepped down as coach of the russia rugby team he made the announcement after his side's defeat to stray yesterday and the final game of the world cup you had a says he wants to concentrate on his coaching role at the russian club or via made the decision to quit the national team with some weeks to go adding his remit was to leap into the world cup despite losing all four matches at the tournament russia did score more tries in any other nation on their world cup debut eighteen total and three came against these watching russian. pride with. russia save their best performance last against australia school i'm fairly one
2:49 am
sided in all of these favor but then again so is a strength and deb's between the two teams was running free tries one of the best teams in the world and to keep the school and to below fifty points in terms of points difference they could be extremely proud of their performance. i'm really happy that we put on a good second half scored three tries and posted twenty two points against the australians is just great through us so we're leaving this world cup with our heads . of it was a fantastic atmosphere coming into the game plenty of green and gold supporting the australians but russia were lacking in support. if you had made the trip for obvious reasons from russia due to the distances involved in travelling but many of the locals from nelson they dig themselves out in russia and would cheer the bears on just like they would try and cheer on the all blacks but when the game would finally get underway the russians were in for a rude awakening as very really find it very difficult to compete with the pace and power of the australians and especially at the breakdown and will be australians
2:50 am
offloads. just a little disappointed we are in all of them really in the first round you were minutes which is natural you know a lot of these guys they only see on the television play in super rugby and training missions but once we overcome that. that they are human like everybody else we showed what we can do and this experience will stand all these players in great stead and you know hopefully the more excuses like we charge this rugby world cup. the better we will become and we will really become challenges at this level after the initial shell shock the first twenty minutes for bears really came into the game there are produce some fantastic attacking rugby and the great thing about their performance artist told them and learning from their mistakes and also they were really helped on by the friendly passionate crowd many of them who were from new zealand but really were shouting their all for the bears and i gave them fantastic support. for the young guy in a lot of experience from plying you know why this sort of standard of rugby working
2:51 am
we. know he you can try and through experience or this you have to apply and i think you know. the guys that apply. for use this is an experience that i want to get in hopefully the improvement on our that i think they've improved as the tournament to go on so that's that's a good song i can only get better on a number of russia's players have really enhanced their reputations after this told them and have examined is probably one of the smallest man and this world cup had only five foot seven he was absolutely outstanding for a wide as was big to grace if you want to second that man of the match was against australia at this tournament it's great to those two guys you know. with his injury was a blow for us in april. i really didn't expect him to be back to his best the thought he could get back to playing with the right treatment and training but to be back to playing is best is great for us in rugby. for the team and you showed really is
2:52 am
in games. you know of work really hard with days is so much potential for russia going out of a pool stage where they really can be incredibly proud of their first ever world cup or put in some fantastic displays for a while didn't want to a lot of friends as well as running an eight chinese and just my first ever world cup and they will learn from their mistakes and will be better prepared in four years time if they manage to qualify and receive on ball three d'arcy nelson new zealand. now let's turn to football and andre voronin struck twice is the normal moscow leap frog to scar to go second in the russian premier league after coming from behind to win two one at home to krasnodar uganda should be seen had put the visit is ahead of the hof and i hear about former liverpool striker vernon level within three minutes of that. and then netted the winner in the quarter of an hour remaining mosque a side have now won four of their last five games will present the remaining seven points adrift of the top eight finish in the regular season. remark that was
2:53 am
a losing start for terrorists new coach stanislav cheers of the former spartak moscow manager saw his side lose one nil to spot and i'll take my goal made me to cheer with the winner in the first half. rostov left struggling police to get out of ego smally for getting the post with five minutes left the ball to bounce off and into the back of the net to get the home side one victory. for the beach was back at the helm of car after leaving the club three years ago but his side failed to score against bulger in a gritty neil neil encounter. had a man sent off later on. down sundays but at mosco take only does any of this in petersburg side lose to skulk could go top but the winner of a compound that carlos takes charge of angie is a play coach for their clash with locomotive catch killer while bottom side top three. in england's fun shinai to remain today only on one goal difference is too
2:54 am
late second half strike from anderson and danny welbeck gave the red devils of two you know when at home to nor aged man just a city a second after a four second half efforts gave them a four no victory struggling blackburn newcastle a third after a two one win a world aston villa are also undefeated and six following a team to victory at home to wigan and sundin came from two goals down to draw two two at home to west brom. liverpool after that you know when ten man everton in the darby both managers admitting jack rodwell sending off after twenty three minutes with. no free kick i would have been disappointed and if he'd given up it was not for. me to. ask the manager because you want the manager to see things which are going to be for us but you need people who watch football to see whether they think it was pretty even eleven against eleven. musi in the
