or malcolm to you live from our headquarters here in central moscow you're watching r t with me and he's on our way it's two pm here in the russian capital six am in new york and the banker backlash in the u.s. is spreading with major rallies held now in washington los angeles and several other cities thousands join to express their anger at economic inequalities and high unemployment but demonstrations started last month when protesters started pitching tents in front of the new york stock exchange under the banner occupy wall street earlier this week heavy handed police were filmed using the tones and pepper spray to disperse crowds the aftermath of years of financial strife are causing people's patience to run out and they're angry at the breaks for triggering it in the first place but one journalist who joined

a campaign says the protesters will not stop demanding social and economic justice . the police did receive voters at four point three million dollars from j.p. morgan chase just a couple days ago to help secure and they're really hurting themselves and their image and they're showing what a precious force there is to people who are just trying to peacefully walk down wall street i mean all these people want to do is they want to walk down the iconic new york stock exchange they want to walk down wall street and they're treating it they're treating us like we're dangerous terrorists so i do see the police being manipulated by these elites they're given the money and of course they're using tactics to try to squash us but that's only going to build us and make us a lot stronger. well those strong arm tactics used by officers went beyond dispersing angry crowds and independent reporter who's trying to cover the events she got anything but police protection as an independent journalist i actually had

my own sort of right hand with a plea as i was arrested on the brooklyn bridge last week with seven hundred other people as i was filming and so were our live stream careers i was also knocked down by a police officer on the front lines and me in the union square protests and i think it's raised a lot of interesting questions about what the role of independent journalism is you know as we sort of move forward. i mean i know that on the brooklyn bridge there were a couple times reporters that were arrested as well but you know it's it's a little frustrating that we are never afforded any of the protection that the mainstream media would it would be good because ultimately we are there documented something that is happening. poor americans enduring rising unemployment and falling living standards it can feel like capitol hill is talking a different language the rally and polls and optimism are a far cry from a once mighty city which is not all but closed with its people on the poverty line . has

a view from detroit. these are difficult years for our country but we are americans we are tougher than the times we live in the u.s. great recession began as a real estate crisis in two thousand and seven today it's expanded into a national job emergency impossible to ignore the purpose of the american jobs act is simple. put more people back to work according to the u.s. government nine point one percent of americans are unemployed yet experts say deceptive measures and stick to still shenanigans are being used to mask i've jobless epidemic that's far worse lately not talent or time workers who are working so i'm more and they also don't count long term unemployed people who are unemployed grow with six months back in time goes people would have been considered unemployed but the government constantly changes the definition of who's unemployed and they do that so that the unemployment number looks lower than it otherwise
6:05 am
would have been when part time workers and the unemployed who have given up hope are factored in the real u.s. unemployment rate increases to more than sixteen percent and more telling but often ignored statistic because they were included and you know the government would have to acknowledge that they truly have a major crisis on and on and you know this is part of their problem and campaign it allows them to continue the status quo our society starts completely breaking down broken down and in ruins the city of detroit is feeling the full force of america's economic decline one in three residents live below the poverty line half of the city's public schools are closing and crime is skyrocketing the capital of the country's motor industry now has an official unemployment rate of just under thirty percent but city officials and residents legs and o.b.'s jeffries say the real
6:06 am
figure is close to fifty how do you describe it it is. i think it's. indicative of what's going on in the rest of the country and they're just now feeling it to heal america's economic suffering experts say u.s. leaders need to abandon exaggerated optimism for the ugly truth unemployment. going to continue to get higher inflation as you can to get higher and rather than trying to pretend that the situation isn't as bad as it is we need to accept how bad it is because then we have a better chance of recognizing the devastation we're manute he was president barack obama has proposed a four hundred forty seven billion dollars plan called for sets the table america's workforce but just like any life saving procedure recovery can only begin to take place when the police said it's fully understood hurry up or die and artsy new york . r.t. has analysis of the fury and fallout album financial crisis online for you keep an

a journalistic work right. but quiet journalistic work is not something you would associate are not political scale way to get corrupt security officials and exposed to human rights violations she help people when there are cases in the highest courts in russia and in strasbourg but the irony is that five years later your own murder still remains unpunished with it has there been different periods in the process busy when people were arrested almost simultaneously into thousand and seven and passive when nothing was happening however the events of recent months give us certain optimism for a successful ending successful in terms of finding the mastermind of the murder i can tell you if the investigation was as active five years ago as it is now by this time we would have had more evidence on your q border. twenty eleven has indeed been a turning point in may prosecutors named a man who is believed to have pulled the trigger the mahmoudiya was arrested in
6:10 am
trichy after years on the run and belgium and shortly afterwards investigators announced they were close just solving one of the most high profile slayings in with some brush in memory of. a former high ranking police official dimitri publishing co that was a middleman for money agreed to organize a criminal more consisting of four people think audio gives us an illusion he kept tabs and holocaust provided the perpetrator with a gun and would organize other barriers of the group we also have other information about the alleged mastermind of the killing but is too premature truly thought information which was not within the routine you know there are guys here to where are not fully worked up until her death has been carrying out its own investigation into the journalist's murder and use papers deputy editor says it's good that interest in the case is so high both in russia and of brought but it's bad when it turns into a pressure on prosecutors worth more than your friends who do you still believe.
6:11 am
before people get my brothers and their friends. in two thousand and nine with you or in some way linked to this murder but you cannot. for the record it was a lot of soul and if it is presented in court and always happens because there was a public pressure on the prosecution to rush to judgment we think that even their arrangements were too premature going to. the russians supreme court unknown to. two thousand and nine and who wouldn't i reopen the investigation it's a significant part of the journey but it's certainly not b.n.c. one of the biggest challenges for investigators of these points is to find other suspects who are now on the run outside the country but just like on the political stand her so profoundly and colleagues will never give up as they strive to find the truth it takes very little to describe someone's death in case on the political
6:12 am
just the dozen words on a piece of stone but these journalists life and tour a legacy could never beat in a forty by forty marble plates if you look at our children our team. two militants believed to be planning a major terror attack against police have been killed in a special operation in russia's korea republic it was part of a planned police assault on the suspects after a top off about their whereabouts the militants were cornered in a residential and given the chance to surrender but they were killed in a shootout with police no officers were injured the incident took place in an area that remains restive following years of fighting and terrorist attacks. on the way this hour for you pumping progress in russia's rural heartland we get closer to the pens a region where you need a heart valve keeping the be patient around the world. but

first thousands of libyan soldiers are launching a final attack on moammar gadhafi his home town of syria hundreds of vehicles with fighters are spotted pouring into the outskirts of fear from the back of the shelling. in the area with pillars of black smoke seen rising from the center of the libyan civil war which is claimed over thirty thousand lives destroyed by nato in march with u.n. chapter three million but it's our borders association president told r.t. the overwhelming death figures prove that nato did not have peaceful intentions. you have to remember the resolution of the u.n. . when you're confined to a no fly zone has to impose a no fly zones and it was there to protect civilians as the end of the day with nato actually going to a lot against the people of libya obviously the dictatorship which prevails there
6:14 am
is no reason to own the people off libya by nato i think the usa britain france and the western powers are hiding behind nato so that no one can point the finger but the figures of the casualties caused by nato bombing is really mounting two weeks ago and the human rights council in geneva the commission which was asked to investigate the situation in libya came with the report saying that they have discussed with nato nato has confirmed to go call it that they have not had any targeting civilians i think nato is continuing its war against the libyan people albeit that they got rid of the dictatorship but we seem to be having. the same exercise they have done in iraq and i think russia was right in taking the position vis a vis syria because we've got better people thought and swear by the un took the
6:15 am
position in iraq and then took the position in libya the un is not there to change regimes it may protect humanitarian purposes it might protect civilians it might stop pause but it is definitely not to change regimes. but war in afghanistan will stretch beyond fourteen years according to washington's top military commander there general john allen says u.s. troops will stay in afghanistan even after the twenty fourth to pull out their vine previously announced by nato and the white house but what began a decade ago as the mission to get the perpetrators of nine eleven has transformed into an open ended hunt for the taliban relentless militant attacks have been stepping up in recent months with several high profile assassinations and shootout in the heart of the capital kabul the million casualties are also on the rise in afghan saying they don't trust nato to protect them from former u.s. military officers are now disillusioned with the war on it colonel karen. thinks
6:16 am
the true aim of the invasion was to create a platform for keeping an eye on or even invading other targets. in many ways the american people have not been told what we came to afghanistan to do and that mission is to build a city which we have done and to man those spaces and to operate militarily from those bases against other countries in the region that mission has actually been somewhat successful and quite frankly don't think we ever intend to hand it back to any of the afghan people we put cars in charge in december of two thousand and one as a supposedly democratic course never never elected a bad time a friend of a patsy of the american government and he remains there to this day you know we had no intention of allowing the afghan people to choose if they had if he were allowed to choose i think we would be long gone. you know this is not about the air and you
