the small region special economic zone promises exceptional of the treaties with disabilities you'll business in russia will come to the smaller regions for more information log on to the existence of you. back here with r.t. here's a look at the top stories the syrian capital post a massive show of support for president with calls for him to be given more time to make the promise of reform areality. and how some believe that germany's move from nuclear power to renewable energy can see millions broke jobless and left in the dark. and angry and their corporate activists knock on the doors of some of america's richest as a wave of demonstrations critical of the government's walloping to big business sweeps nationwide washington's approval rating has taken

a hit for the public demanding accountability over the poor bird lobbies and fines . so why the occupy wall street movement growing all the time r t you spoke to a rapper immortal technique and says that if president obama doesn't start listening to his people you will lose the upcoming election. occupy wall street has now entered its fourth week of demonstrations and this movement has now been leased from its nation in forty five eight two hundred cities and over the past few weeks many well known names have thrown their support behind the movement including my current gas rocker activist and revolutionary immortal technique thank you for joining me thank you for having me on the program within the first few weeks you came down here to speak to the crowd from what i understand you were very bothered by the fact this movement was being marginalized but now

what we're thinking to a mainstream media is down here we see all the satellite trucks around why do you think they have gone to report about what is taking place here and for the country you know this is an old phrase in the media if it bleeds it leads you know the more shocking the more outrageous it is the more that they want coverage because they know that other stations the smaller media outlets the blogging sites those sites that may not be necessarily mainstream media and have the attention of millions of viewers are starting to actually pay attention to what's going on here which one is which is one of the biggest expressions of democracy in the past few decades here in america and i think that when that is clear and present in front of everyone to see it becomes blatantly obvious to some of the larger of media senses that they're not even giving an ounce of coverage to it it makes them look even more biased than the already i think the tipping point might have been the arrests the mass arrests

here in the eight hundred peaceful protesters on the brooklyn bridge and took place i know you've been very outspoken about it and of the police brutality i think that very much where police brutality you're going to get the when you get the internet became viral because you saw a bunch of defenseless people that were simply expressing their freedom. to speak their mind in a public place then they were penned off then they were sprayed down they were obviously not in danger of harming any police officers and then all of a sudden you see white shirts coming out warm wore off and seemingly unable to be held responsible for anything that they do almost as if they are above the law and that is very exemplary of exactly what has continued to fuel the fire here at this protest the fact that people there on wall street people that are in government are refusing washington is that all of them but a lot of them are refusing to acknowledge their responsibility and what caused all

this you know listen come from nowhere people didn't just decide to get up and be angry about nothing people who are seriously concerned about the direction that our democracy is doing i want to ask you about something that new york city mayor michael michael bloomberg said about this demonstration he said these protesters are trying to destroy the jobs of working people in new york city mayor michael bloomberg said that this kevin street is not productive do you think that this is. i mean illustration of disconnect what do you think about no i think that's a perfect illustration of a connect his connect with wall street bloomberg is what seventy five percent or about owner of bloomberg l.l.c. has a sixteen billion dollars stake or so down the wall street this is business school of course he feels threatened and he can do whatever he can including making the police more and more confrontational to elicit the type of negative response that he wants from these protesters he wants to goad them into violence he wants to make them argue amongst one another he wants to foreign issues of race religion sexual

orientation whatever he possibly can him and people like him to exploit people that are coming here who just simply want to express themselves how is this anything but a democratic expression of freedom of speech and democracy is something very alien to that fraud mr bloom. what should we do should we just we just completely ignore i would god given right to assemble here and to question our the government we're not entirely american we love america and we refuse to see it destroyed by the same people that have been corrupting it for the past countless number of years i believe that there are lots of people that are willing to put up mr obama's second term on the altar of the marchese that he's not willing to listen to the same group of people that were honestly trying to believe in the words he was saying when he claimed. that he was going to change things in this country which haven't changed so much honest well this is clearly going to become a part of the twenty trial the rap sheet isn't this is gotten so big it is spread

so far and why us president barack obama did speak about this and said he understands the frustration of those taking part in our shoes mindful of why these frustrations are you know in two thousand eight hundred ready to go up in office obama was not the the great unifier he was the great pacifier. he came in here and said no it's going to be ok i'm going to take care of all this it's a terrible all of it this is not hatred towards him this is not a good gratian of him as a mate but he knows the system he has to stand up for because he's tied to it to what makes the momentum actually back in the u.s. to step aside from the occupation aside from the visual what do people need to do when we start forcing the money and we start bleeding them down that's when they get the mess that's when they get it through their heads oh my god no they've discovered the magic way to deal with us all the problem here be is that i see

a lot of potential i see potential at least to be harnessed i see people that i understand the reason they have an elected leaders but i think that there should be more spokespeople that go out and have the actual poor message of this group that realize that the corruption that has existed in the system when you. i look at this nation they see republicans completely in the hands of corporations democrats pandering to them nonstop we see them also involved now to the president as part of expanding war was expanding occupations not standing up for human rights you know being blind about several global issues that are important to people here because they reflect on our democracy what we do outside of america defines our democracy here i've seen a lot of people online think jeff that this movement if they were to take some action should go so far as to either pull their money out of banks or stop using credit cards that's not i'm not promoting any ideas here while asking this question

but it is something that has been suggested do you think that the second idea is a lot better than the first shot using credit card i think even though we have to have a cohesive strategy to pull this together i think that there's a lot of real brainstorming that needs to happen because if we make one move we need to be focused on what moves will be made against us you know this is a chess game just like the united states chess game in the middle east where they're willing to give up a few points but what they really want to pieces they're willing to trade a few lame duck presidents because what they really want is the main characters that the bill you know they're willing to trade the foreign ten dollars but out he's of course right the other guy used to be a player mubarak became a pawn one of the more. the bishop gadhafi gone. now they want to clean iran out of this secure chess game i don't think that they're not playing that here is. we have to not only be focused on what the next move but

what the reaction to what their reaction to our next move is we have to think ahead of the game which is wise that there should be more brainstorming sessions here and i'm not so sure they should always be in public because i think honestly that we're not the only ones watching this would be a fool to think that there aren't people involved here. around this area that aren't sleeper cells agents that's not me being paranoid that's just the truth you know the first person the first black person to have to work for the secret service agency was agent eight hundred his job was to infiltrate the movement of marcus garvey if they were thinking like that back then why wouldn't they be thinking like that and i think what's most important is that we don't get frustrated or angry or upset or lack the patience to be able to deal with this move there was a there was a side out here that said you know police offices do one bounced check away from being out here with the rest of us to feel a lot of people think they're angry they're streaming it costs but you're going to

stand there just working class individuals whose their boss the mayor the mayor is get money with wall street he's literally. he's closer to wall street than america's newsroom you know to me. that's that's his only those are his people when they die you pours out a little liquor for them so when he says something to the police commissioner the police commissioner says something to the white shirts and the white shirts kick downs of the sons years it's similar to what we see in the most brutal parts of the occupation of iraq and afghanistan the most brutal parts of that war soldiers held accountable for terrible things that happened within the confines of the war but no officers no generals nobody that implemented these policies nobody that said hey you know what take him into the back and cut his hands off and so he tells me what i want to hear or reproachful she can't stand it so she gives us the information that we want but that's only attributed to the contractors to the soldiers not to

the upper levels not to the cia memos not to the people that wrote which is why when i look at cops this is a certain amount of cynicism that i have when people say oh they're all evil they're all we can know they're not evil they're all we can they're people that are innocently following orders and if they don't count wars they'll lose their job like the sign said their one bounced check for being right here with the rest. of us to and i think that's also a big difference between this movement and between the arab spring as the difference is that in the arab spring there was a concentrated force of security forces whether it be military or national guard that decided to join with the move because those were their equal they were literally saying well these are the people that i'm being told by my document that i have to go to war with other countries to protect and yet now i'm being told to attack and kill the same people at some point everybody has to question what they're doing and why they're even here what they're doing is their job if they're being expressive their democracy and a greater question what do they ever really do to be considered an american. if you

fall out of a new york or new jersey or kansas that's why you're an american if you were to stand up when you kumin rights in your civil rights if you have a question of government trying to infringe on your civil liberties would you ever try to reform a government that's done nothing but leach this country dry stealing from people constantly. if people come here from the opposition people of consistently been a part of taking advantage of the people that are here that are upset at what we're doing because it exposes what they've been doing this whole time which exposes the corruption behind closed doors then we know we're on the right and i'm telling people right now that i'm going to continue to come back down here to this movement i was here when i started our i won't be here when it finishes because it's never going to finish because we can never stop reforming our democracy the moment that we stop reforming our democracy it ceases to be a democracy at the moment that the revolution stops that means the revolution has been betrayed we're here to stay and we're not going anywhere.

no zero point. eight it last week that if russia didn't make it to the poland and ukraine finals he would step down as national team coach but with a team topping qualifying group either by bypassing the treacherous playoff routines here until next summer at least on the country's football union well they're happy with that it was. a card is a top level specialist he's a very consistent problematic and goal oriented person and to make it even better he's a winner he's doing runs out in july next year but it has an option to be extended and i can't see any need to change them out. brings us to the mess they came where the final steps are being taken to move the russian premier league calendar in line with the rest of europe the year now kicks off in autumn with the final match is taking place in late spring richard van port fate has more on what this will mean

for the club's. i have never been there is normally the month when the new russian premier league champions try and however it's one day to case busy and thanks the winner will be confirmed so may of next year as the country's footballing calendar is undergoing a radical change to bring them in line with the rest of europe. feel full might also put russian clubs competing in europe a disadvantage as once they reach out to stages of the champions league will be roughly their season was hit to start. however the remainder of the continents were already halfway prove a campaigns and were in a much better position. to help us and mentally move into the new calendar club's not difficult previously to compete with the top clubs around europe in the latter stages of the european competition isn't it however things should now be a lot easier for us what has to be put on a level playing field because we'll carry on playing until the end of the current championship and if you don't get the team played thirty games from now other then

there will be a splits two games taking place november remains well for mancini it's only two thousand and twelve for a month when to very confused well if you take a look at the current table and the clubs remain in the same positions of the end of the season the top eight sometimes you need to angie would play each other home and away and fight it out to see who is eventually crowned champion and who qualifies for europe. however at the other end that's cost of the tome again they would play each other twice with two teams relegated to the first division when the season eventually finishes in may and have a go but it will be really hard for the clubs or the stars as he will have to play a lot of the games as well as trying to fit in european competitions as well but in the end it will be worth it because you'll be on a similar calendar to those elves playing in the majority of europe that have been

concerns about and you can end up putting the clubs at the disadvantage could be unpredictability pressures weather conditions all other the stage she proved to be unfounded and the championship will come a pretty much the same beats currently used because we're going to break down the country by the ultimate two thousand and twelve russia will join the rest of europe playing in the season finishes in me which accompanied nazi stank. well let's stick with football for a little longer where serbia captain de young stunk of h. has announced his international retirement at the age of thirty three the move coming after a stroke and failed to qualify for the european finals while start offender damania video is believed to be joining him the twenty nine year old manchester united skipper hinting he may call of the day any time know that it's the thing he takes full responsibility for missing what's it been a qualification altering penalty for his country on tuesday the serbs needed to

i was a little bit surprised that there was no one in front of the goal when i make a move so i decided to shoot and i made the right decision and. said we should play our game on a solid defending the score and win the match is on the time it happened we conceded an awkward goal to come from behind undeserved only in portugal didn't have any scoring opportunities in the second half. russian and took the group nine points from three marriages course you'll see. into good name but i won't. now wales helping forced to make a change to their lineup ahead of sunday's rugby world cup semifinal pottle with france change who he will start at flyhalf replacing rhys priestland who injured his shoulder in the closing minutes of the quarter final win over old garland seeing just three minutes of action out today and has recently been playing of the position were frequently worrying gatland opting for the twenty six year old in the starting line up not fly half with record cops who are stephen jones moving to the
