12:02 am
a lot of scans. and my meeting with the new york city police departments throughout this weekend protesters have a march to times square where the tensions and me both i was a part of was actually trapped by these barricades hands there and palace for several hours ronnie able to move left right or to get out we saw the saucers on horseback nearly drowned all of a number of protesters peace officers are destroyed or kind of ran over some protesters there was a total of ninety two large brass part of the occupy wall street gathering this week it's here in new york i witnessed several of them with one hand since we were in times square a number of protesters were sitting peacefully demonstrating turning out true to speak up for the economic injustice is that they personally you've already issue in this country they were taken by these i am to violently onto the ground and that's and driven away we saw
12:03 am
a number of protesters harass been violently while they were torturing sometimes where the police actually prevents them from turning on several streets and so we were corralled into traps for several hours and then pensions now points in time where we were unable to move the protesters started chanting reciting the first amendment back to the police officers but to no avail we're trying to film what was going on and despite us saying that we are oppressed or simply here to cover the events of course this back with us on. the man space. x. rope lights lines the cameras that are i mean it's help any. serious shows that was actually going on which was unprecedented and trying to scare and scared dates meanwhile all these events were happening here i mean more protests continue to grow across the country here in the united states chicago there were several thousand protesters that turned out and i'm not think of the foreign press to talk to these ersatz are arrested or in other parts of this time treat all indicative of
12:04 am
a comeback as well get it to mr crow just might. like to tear each other it seems like more and more people and teenagers show out support but that's really. all of this american occupation the so-called occupy wall street with its power it's called serene's to be seen but it will be operating it for you here. one of the major grievances uniting protesters across the us is eyeing her at the government for putting corporate welfare above that of citizens and i thought you'd pick up by watching american much of america's mainstream media so activists are getting creative to get across the point as our he's got a check young reports. here discontent. us. and graphic thousands of americans have resorted to banners and t. shirts to get their message across that a frustration with what they see is the government acting on behalf of the
12:05 am
corporations rather than the people message which the protesters say their media have failed to deliver the media feels like these kinds of events don't deserve coverage sometimes all you get when you do something this is a photograph and so it's very important for the message to be seen those simple oftentimes henry messages that people carry on their chests have often been subject to mockery what is the side. wall street bros posed to the five. i would tell them what does that mean. it seems the only fault of these people is presented in the american media is that they don't all have a degree in economics and finances and are not able to explain their grievances in professional economies terms various groups emboldened to cheer the end of the greatest system known to man and replace it with what who cares what snap their protests and most of your mindless when you ask people in wall street what
12:06 am
they want they don't know he acts that took place over the last thirty years were regards to national debt within the system generally all of these things are very complicated and difficult for the general public to understand and people in the media and people on wall street like it that way because if you don't understand it then you don't you don't get what happened but the american people know that they've gotten hosed they've lost their jobs they've seen them offshore to china it lost their houses they saw a huge run up at home prices another collapse and people are saying you know what i know that i buy all this but i don't know how i got screwed but americans who took to the streets are looking to express themselves by needs other than motivational peter it's an banners which as graphic as they are hardly convey the full message of the movement the demonstrators are spreading their own paper now called occupy wall street journal which details what they're unhappy with and makes it clear that
12:07 am
they're not rooting for one particular party it also works against both political machines and their p.r. slick's taking control of the protest message one word to describe these ongoing protests from the beginning is frustration and there are two currents on cardboard on the backs of pizza boxes as we've seen people express that frustration but as the movement grows the ways of getting their message across also mature and as people here say this paper is just the beginning. i'm going to check our reporting from last week. the banker backlash is now resonating well beyond u.s. borders in europe are his correspondents have been gauging developments there. the police have been trying to disperse the last few remaining hundred hardcore protesters these people who are on the streets of madrid today they believe their forces are in town being hard to watch are on the spot reports from european capitals by clicking on our team. arab league members have decided
12:08 am
not to suspend syria from the group but want urgent talks between the government and opposition forces syria's president move this weekend to the protesters key demand by promising to draft a new constitution within four months but that's not enough to appease them all is are he's tesser tests are so your reports from inside syria. polls would change in the forms seven months and. one of those calls is to create a real risk the political system. since nine hundred seventy two politics is only open to parties that know the disapproval party enjoy the school mission. and all this for fun side issue to the group possibly the most part of the. result. this is a moment who's been waiting for the chance to move to syria politics some of you were replying to become
12:09 am
a political party so we can see more effective we can influence. the move all those parties that are open to all syrians regardless of ethnicity and religion and they're not affiliated organizations outside of syria. but the newly formed internal opposition the national coordinator and counselor and c.c. will not participate in the recent deadly clashes in cities like understandably the president appointed a committee to draft a new constitution within four months and one sticking point is article eight states of the ba'ath party is the leader of the state and society the opposition argues this undermines the essence of multiple parties you know some some people in the party leadership have become to the conclusion i've come to the conclusion that article eight around more dangerous articles in the course of the mission that article are going to be under review we should have almost
12:10 am
a new constitution we're in new multi-party system would be achieved without any difficulty perhaps change is coming to syria the sukkot tasm violent clashes and drive among the much some vowing they will not stop until bashar al assad steps down so is it simply too little too late. meetings like this happen on a daily basis for gerson the national development party is out there in the final stages of the outlook is the process of becoming an official a little party here in syria well after a decade of listening to promises of reform they now feel that this could be real let me such a thing for us are so you are teaching damascus syria. stay with us here on r.t. still to come israel says the palestinian peace talks are no one else's business the country's foreign ministry says there is no need for international mediators we hear expert opinion on my two way talks could only lead to the road map to a dead end. plus russian children and doomed to an early death even though the

incurable incurable condition they share is treatable and controllable depending on where they live or to the reports if you get. it first serves in northern kosovo have been told to remove barricades near the border with serbia or nato forces will do with themselves they've been told to clear the roads over the weekend or care for troops and will dismantle them one day trouble flared in july when kosovo police tried to take over to the northern border crossings which was resisted by local serbs blockaded access roads nato and the e.u. forces then moved in to try and establish control late last month some barricades were full those resulting violence with peacekeepers using rubber bullets and tear gas against serb political analysts nicol attacked us it says the what angers serbs the most is the fact that nato is soley serving kosovo officials interests. that legally they do have a right to as they think they. be in poor it would be to move movement on
12:12 am
the whole territory of cost of war but the problem it would legitimacy because the theory be an authority to produce there been costs that would be recognized nato is right and people is right to enforce the law in costa but the problem is that most needed country the need to be recognized to be independent thought possible of the show and can apparently trying to implement be able laws and to establish here is a checkpoint at the border between north and got some one hundred thirty one and that is what is in the capital put a third film gate port in itself and should it be only nato convoys there would be no problem whatsoever to go part of the problem need to be carrying them out meaning an official from the possible government. or he spoke with serbia as chief negotiator in kosovo you'll hear in about twenty minutes he thinks it's impossible to resolve the situation the way christina intends to. very determined to create the border between the serbian cause there cannot be
12:13 am
a border especially in area in which we hear majority of serbs leaving so there cannot be a border because the he's at least if you like the second thing is that once you put the custom officers then you will put a flag you will put the called of arms then you will push the so-called possible laws and then people who leave here will be circled by something that looks like it was the b.c. became a perceptive so there has to be a different solution. a senior israeli politician says their conflict with palestinians could be resolved without outside help the foreign minister says there's no need for mediation from the middle east quartet made up of russia the us the e.u. and the un but jerusalem post columnist jeff barak says international participation is a must to ensure a lasting peace. it is there because it.
12:14 am
will be solved under an international umbrella of course mr lieberman is right in the ideal situation would be nothing better than fisheries and the palestinians to sit down together and reach a peace agreement between the two of them without the need for international mediation unfortunately however history has shown that this isn't going to be the case and in fact one of israel has made a peace agreement with another arab country the international community in particular of course the united states has been very much behind those negotiations if you look for example a peace really gyptian peace accord although the initial contacts were made between israeli and egyptians it needed to come david summit on the work of president carter to finalize a deal in the case of the palestinians or initial contacts between is on the other strains back at the beginning will be also called work on the market through secret israeli palestinian travels to get them through any stage towards an agreement needs an international commitment particular as far as israel's concerned with the
12:15 am
united states backing israel wants american backing for its security needs the palestinians on the other hand want to know that they have the backing of the arab world to make a compromise that they'll have to make if there ever is to be a peace agreement between the two sides. more on the middle east peace twists and turns could be found on our website we've lined up more world news there for you to you that's all a click away at our teeth dot com including when ukraine's wants strays off its streets to countries reportedly earning dogs lie ahead of hosting the euro two thousand and twelve football finals. and people in moscow who are out for a bike prank getting photographed as still light in the city get to the gallery and find out why our team dot com. from the gaze of the manhattan project important to the university of california

has done everything it could to support financial markets. points out but it is now up to governments to struggle with a stubborn debt crisis and their governments are not a bank must be the lender of last resort. if continued activism from the european central bank were to continue in helping out europe with the crisis then there would be a moral hazard of sorts whereby countries would start to become too dependent on such assistance from the european central bank and would not. produce enough of an effort in trying to stabilize their own finances in addressing the key ills of the weak or the links of the europeans to come out of the crisis so i think it's a signal that is meant to put greater pressure on countries that are experiencing fiscal difficulties and knowledge to get their act together to stabilize the fiscal
