11:02 am
well i'm here in skokie heart which was the scene of a massive massive turnout of occupy wall street protesters over the weekend it was just one of the locations where protesters gather to stop when i'm president and a number of people rallies to march to times square where they have urged to. sort of in the memory shed and call it terry with some of the other events that were taking place across all part of the occupy wall street movements now we've seen a lot of tense standoff with them i'm meeting in your city police department route to speak against protesters have been swayed marched to times square where the intentions of the people that i was a part of actually trapped by these barricades and their health for several hours or i mean left right or to get out we saw these officers on horseback nearly sram all a number of protestors peace officers on the street or kind of ran over some protesters
11:03 am
there was a total of ninety two are rascals part of the occupy wall street gatherings over this weekend here in new york i witnessed several of them up and running and we were in times square a number of protesters were sitting peacefully they were taken by these i am to violently onto the ground and again prevented the way we saw number of protesters arrested while on the fortunes right where we were trying to film what was going on and just by saying that their press were simply here to cover the abbess they have pushed us back with on center hands they need to use heights backstroke lights to lines the cameras that help any. serious visuals the ball was actually going on which was unprecedented in my experience here to date meanwhile while these events were happening here in new york the protests continue to grow across the country here in the united states of chicago there are several thousand protesters that have turned out about one hundred forty. mark preston final piece carries off their
11:04 am
arrests in denver and other parts of this time stream all of the caucus movement to mr crow how it's got lots of needs to be seen but we'll be covering it for you here . indeed a couple of reporting right there were protesters across the u.s. are also voicing their anger at the government for putting corporate concerns about those of citizens and say this point is being missed in much of the country's mainstream media so activists are getting rather creative to have the voices heard i thought he's going to check our reports. thank you it's very discontent loud. 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 big corporations rather than the people message which the protesters say their media failed to deliver the media feels like these kinds of events don't deserve coverage
11:05 am
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 handwritten messages that people carry on their chests and often being subject to mockery what is the side. wall street brother post of the five how do you think i would put it 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 involved they cheer the end of the greatest system known to man and replace it with what who cares but snap their protests and wall street are mindless and when you ask people in wall street what they want they don't know the acts that took place over the last thirty years with regards to national debt and debt within the system generally all of these
11:06 am
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 know you don't get what happened but the american people know that they've gotten close watch their jobs they've seen them offshore to china they've lost their houses they saw a huge run up at home prices that are collapsed and people are saying you know what i know that i've got screwed by all of this but i don't know how or why but americans who took to the streets are looking to express themselves by need. other than motivational peace sure it's in banners which as well if it is they are hardly convey the message of the movement the demonstrators are spreading their own paper now called occupied last free journal which details with their i'm happy with that makes it clear that they are not rooting for one particular party it also works against both political machines and their p.r.
11:07 am
slicks taking control of the protest message one word to describe these ongoing protests from the beginning is frustrating on their team or it's on cardboard on the backs of pizza boxes as we've seen people express their frustration that is the movement grows the ways of getting their message across but also much more honest people here say this paper is just the beginning i'm going to check our reporting from washington are. trying to figure out if you can track the developments in the protests on our web site dot com of course there you can also find more first hand reports from lower manhattan expert opinions and a timeline of the events. sponsored by growing poverty and some of. yours by the country's waiting for you as well causing jobs and social spending people across the globe rise up against their government's economic policies follow the worldwide action against austerity live on our t.v.

11:19 am
resolved right now it can't be resolved with international mediation either because international mediation is finally taking its lead from the united states and the united states is taking its lead from from pre-election public opinion which is very anti palestinian anti muslim very pro israel because israel is against stands against the same enemy that america has and so america is beholden to this exaggeratedly pro israel and the palestinian attitude and we're america goes the quartet goes so international mediation at least until the election in america is pointless and it can't help. but to think that israel can solve the problem with our international mediation is also impossible but it's too lieberman's liking because lieberman does not want to solve the problem he doesn't want any interference he wants to go on with the occupation as it is. meanwhile of
