leaving several people injury. artie's interview with now 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 of 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 wells in the wall street is just a short and to the financial institutions the banks are bigger than richard b.
4:32 am
who are 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 those set in motion a vicious cycle which is getting worse and worse in new york so the walk down the streets you can see it very serious poverty on the other hand phenomenal wealth right side by side the much like a third world country what you see if you go to so if there are enough with that meanwhile infrastructure is collapsing and schools are collapsing and all of that increases the. keeps the cycle going and like rising well. it's about time for some protest what may be new in the coming year for the two
4:33 am
thousand and twelve election is that many including yourself have speculated and assume that campaign spending for the u.s. election two thousand and twelve will exceed one billion dollar each for have a good candidate that isn't massive you know could be much nicer and where does that come from well you know a lot of it comes from financial institutions like you look at the two thousand and eight election and what swung obama what gave him the election was primarily financial institution contributions they preferred him to mckinnon they expected to be paid back when they were. on the next will be even worse and certainly that's why a part of it in parliamentary systems including our own up to old maybe twenty years ago. positions of influence in a functioning part of a parliamentary system what's the chair of a committee. comes from principle at least from experience seniority.
4:34 am
legislative contributions and so on that's gone now they're bought if you if you want to become chair of the committee. in the house of the senate you have to pay off the party have to pay for a way to get the money to pay for same pocket you don't so it. provides even more influence to the your already overwhelming fluence of concentrated capital so it's harder and harder to distinguish between the elected officials and. economic concentration it never was easy to distinguish issues with this is not something novel but now it's reaching the extreme level but what's left of america's democratic system if this is the process that has been cemented in place and what is really left if from every angle there's the is that manson family just take a look at public opinion they'll tell you. about two thirds of the public thinks
4:35 am
the entire congress would be thrown out. without doesn't mean you have it's going to happen no but it means that the system isn't working and the public knows it. the popularity of favor ability rating for congress and single digit president 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 democratic 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 u.s. is deported 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
4:36 am
assassination of osama bin laden and that continuity you say between george w. bush and barack obama. killing us on that laudanum interesting case it was done in such a way as to infuriate the pakistanis which is extremely dangerous that's the most dangerous country in the world and go into it but you have a professional army committed to the sovereignty of pakistan the pakistanis were already. overwhelmingly he 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. pressured forced to take part in an american war in afghanistan some of the
4:37 am
conservative military out of this two 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 tunnel moer bug rum or some other torture chamber and try to extract some information out of them we know what that was like to describe it obama's policy is just to kill. killing them all over the world targeted assassination camp and you know to kidnap them and torture him just kill him. the blood necessitate if it 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 until then he's a suspect he's innocent until proven guilty well that's one night you just kill him
4:38 am
if you think they're guilty so he was apprehended. no resistance he was alone with his wife 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. the hatred throughout the muslim world in fact and when anybody has got their eyes open you talk about the obama administration and how the us actions right now could be infuriating 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 un membership and
4:39 am
statehood the us says that they will cast if you go against it if they do because they believe that direct negotiations should take place between house and israel before there's an independent palestine first of all i have to make a qualification the united states and its western allies did not support the egyptian and to newseum revolutions they opposed them they sit back to them and to me as it was mostly france they are calling me fix going in egypt was 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 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. thirty five years of the united states and israel have been rejecting
4:40 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's getting former isolated meaning the u.s. is getting for isolated for example a couple months ago there was a meeting of the the all the gore people are pretty much on the economy 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
4:41 am
collapse now it's interesting that israel is reacting korea much choice or whatever to do if you look back at the history but about one hundred sixteen we have the records of the south african foreign minister called in the american ambassador describe 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. u.n. and boy are you going to barca that corporations were pulling out. sanctions were all over boycotts they were doing fine. the reagan administration was backing them . as long as the u.s. was supporting them nothing happened then the u.s. withdrew support almost instantly apartheid collapsed saying it's in israel's best interest and the us still allow this palestinian un membership stay with us for
4:42 am
thirty five years the same scenario which a majority of smell 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 get away with it as long as the most powerful state in the world backs them and as long as europe goes along and 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. to comment on him but then i might as well take george bush to. bring the message you do what the united states tells you to stop
4:43 am
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 the rest chomsky thank you very much for your time you. discover it. communicate with the wild. and become free. in nature can give you.
4:44 am

4:48 am
obviously it's chatted with this news. group of people who are very focused during this. has been explaining why he stepped down as coach of the russia he may be innocent after his side's defeat to australia yesterday in the final game of the world cup says he wants to concentrate on his coaching role at the russian club. and made the decision to quit the national team some weeks ago adding his remit was to lead them to the world cup despite losing all four matches that atonement russia did score more tries than any other nation on their world cup debut eighteen total and three came against the ozzies watching russia with some pride which rich and powerful. russia save their best performance last against australia school on may look fairly one 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
4:49 am
teams in the world and to keep the scoreline to below fifty points in terms of points difference they could be extremely proud of their performance. and really had to do to put on a good second half school three tries and posted twenty two points against those trillions is just really through us so we're leaving this world cup with the needs . of it was a fantastic atmosphere coming into the game plenty of green and gold simple in the australians but russia were lacking in support but if you had made the trip from his reasons from russia due to the distances travelling but many of the locals from nelson they took 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 they really found it very difficult to complete the pace and power of the australians and especially at the breakdown and will be australians offloads you know just just a little disappointed we are in oregon really in the first round you were minutes
4:50 am
which is natural you know a lot of these guys they only see on the television play in super rugby in training . but once we come the fact that they are human like everybody else we showed. all we can do in this experience is stand all these plays in great stead and you know hopefully the more excuses like we've hired for this road we will cut the better we will become and we will really become challenges at this level well 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 coleman is very learning from their mistakes and also they were really helped on by the credibly passionate crowd many of them who were from new zealand but really were shouted near all for the bears and i gave them fantastic support. for the young guy in a lot of experience from plying gauze you know why this sort of standard of rugby working with. you know the you can try and through experience all this you have to
4:51 am
apply and i think you know. the guys that apply it will be. no use this is an experience that i want to get in hard flugel improving on are that i think they've improved as a tone that's gone on so that's a good song and i can only get better on a number of russia's players have really enhanced their reputations out of his totem and have exam again which is probably one of the smallest man this world cup i've 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 award against australia i was told him and straight to those two guys you know. with his injury was a blow for us in april and i really didn't expect him to be back to his best the thought he could get back to play in with the right treatment and training but to be back to playing is best is great for us in rugby great for the team and showed overvalue really is in games and victor you know of work really hard with days is so much potential for russia going out of
4:52 am
