1:01 am
international news line for most of this is aussie with me thanks for joining us greece's forty eight hour paralysis is entering its second day and has already seen street violence over the government's efforts to stable bankruptcy the anger of tens of thousands of protesters wasn't enough to deter lawmakers from giving initial backing to even more tough times desperately turn the economy around and she reports now from. but this is the scene on the streets of athens you can see it just doesn't take the sleigh one of the main shopping streets spring with the wrong other window fronts a lot of place to be flashy still got a very heavy police presence that has remained here now up and sometimes where we saw thousands upon thousands of people gathering earlier you still got the small presence we saw the what police pushing them off the streets is the largest protest that we had since the financial crisis began and we saw some really violent clashes between the protesters and the police the streets. filled with smoke and we saw
1:02 am
a number of the buildings on fire and anything on syntagma you can see still got the riot police outside the front of the parliament building you still got a number of protesters no earlier on this thing with filled with fire where fire started going off protests is running in all directions. today we came here peacefully and the police just started to attack people with tear gas and we do people of greece no matter what part we're from the government to support the rights of the people both in politics you know the legal system we don't want these people to say and do whatever they like anymore. you can still smell the take in the hair approach at that included all age groups in all social groups than greece because it's a problem that's affected everyone here in the country young only olds turning out to join in the protests we were looking at some of the banners and chance we have to let this go we have to stop this fight and the answer was never and really
1:03 am
that's what a lot of this focus has been a was the eurozone leaders in the government here in the parliament building the stuff possible rescue plans the statements and all the financial plans that they come up with the people had had to suffer under these measures and they said they simply had enough it was described as a make or break week for greece they had the government vote on the possible further will start to try and get the next tranche of money leaders meeting in brussels at the weekend to again discuss the day quite that here on the streets it might have been described as a make or break week but we store exactly what that meant for the people there now here in athens trying to pick up the pieces of what they say has been measured that it's simply crippled their country. artsy and. all the greece is the epicenter of the euro zone's troubles for some of your water is the problem is will only deepen unless governments are to make the euro currency
1:04 am
was a mistake. well what needs to be recognized is that greece is of course passed as we know and we need they need to have a de force they need to stop paying all the money to live paper based financial institutions and start trying to invest in a have a colony to try and get the economy moving again and of course leave the euro if that needs to be done that is inevitable that of hutu should happen very soon whether it will or not is another matter because the politicians are so wedded to the idea of trying to protect the euro that that is a frequent state is becoming a ticking time bomb from the longer they leave it the more problems will be more what's on the streets of athens will be more painful held by the greek people that's what happens when you take away people's democracy and centralized power to a relatively small clique of people and they'd be dragging down the whole of the pin union as long as they stick with the euro the euro is it is a step too far in terms of political integration it's a political measure that doesn't make economic sense we can see that they need to
1:05 am
wake up and recognize it as well. things a little better than america where thousands of people are digging in anti corporate protests it's week brittle the occupy wall street running against a bloated banks and washington's weakness in doing something about it and the growing gap between rich and poor is something which could cause the government via a scanner to check our expense. a class war seemed impossible in a country where being wealthy east part of the national green couldst thousands march on wall street and in other parts of america protesting against the system that they claim works only for the benefit of a few super rich individuals and folk ration is many ask whether america is facing a class war that at a time when the rich are getting richer while the middle class is class a class war is being waged in america today unfortunately the wrong side is winning his so-called one percent of winners are the nation's top corporations
1:06 am
which this year made the economy's very slow growth as non the less made record profits thanks to various loopholes plenty of these corporations pay little or nothing in taxes the corporations say they need the tax breaks to be able to invest more in to hire more america's second largest energy producers chevron is now lobbying not to let the government tax them more and to my question how many americans has chevron hired since the tax breaks were introduced in two thousand and four the c.e.o. of the company said there were slightly a few thousand trained business over the years but not significantly not significant on our chevron payroll a few thousand jobs for the billions of dollars in tax stimulus that the government gave the economy same erika's largest corporations are sitting on more than three trillion dollars and not investing in the economy unemployment in the us remains over nine percent and i have enough money to support my lifetime goal i don't have

a problem but. my great grand kids. grandkids. at the wall street answer to people's rage i think you'll still be nobody held a job but as one of the protesters try to put a word of objection we call it all done all done it's not your show. i'm talking to these people hold on i'm not talking to you you can. talk personal success and money have always big part of the american dream. the aspiration to become rich is deeply ingrained in american society and widely promoted by pop culture but those who took to the streets have made it clear that the situation when the rich are getting greater and the poor are getting poorer is not their idea of the american dream it could be the end of it and the beginning of a class war i'm going to check our reporting from washington. and among the occupy
1:08 am
wall street protesters biggest grievances is the influence that america's big business has on washington political and social. he says the two are inextricably linked bailing out the too big to fail as the rich bankers the federal reserve dumping trillions of dollars worldwide that it's the capital it's been a takeover it's one big corporate takeover named the industry is a handful of people writing it agriculture communications you go down the list whether it's retail whether it's the military so yes wall street is was shooting in washington is wall street we used to be the most egalitarian nation on earth until the republicans and democrats started be regulating the laws that made us that that put all the play in the power of the big things you want to start a business bob if you're going to create several hundred jobs we'll give you tax breaks guarantees you name it is the structure but if you're an entrepreneur and

1:15 am
defense system is not for you. it must be a serious documents which has to assume the extent of trust and verification all the rest is useless crap paperwork like a proposal to russia to send specialists to monitor missile defense test marks just to hold it wasn't serious it was right. the divided missile defense shows a little sign of being successful a bridge to peace campaigners have told r.t. that russia has a reasonable grounds to be suspicious. the u.s. is out to militarily surround russia today these missile defense systems are part of the u.s. first strike strategy there the shield that goes along with the first strike sword these systems are now being deployed not only will they be deployed in romania but the radar is going to be put into turkey the u.s. is now talking to georgia about putting one of these missile defense radars in
