then of course we saw it late in the day they played descending into very chaotic scenes indeed we're sorry just because of the people here because as we said they've really lost faith in their government in the usa his ability to be able to find a way out of this to find a solution certainly the solutions that again come up with states really haven't been candidates for the people here i think we care about all these asperity because of this actually means that the people of the state house in two years is the cause of that size wasn't going to decide to take the new generation it's a mystical hit these are people who are in the middle classes who lost the kilts couldn't deal with the taxes couldn't make their rent enable people you know better to cater to it's all intents and purposes cities like abel's like that that's simply are the prospects here in the country all around she carried out this link because he was explaining that the decline you can see the economy altering the

5:04 am
a of economy to try and get the economy moving again and of course leave the euro and that needs to be done that is never to will give hope to 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 for that is if people mistake you for calming ticking timebomb the longer they leave it the more people who think you know what's in the streets of athens will be more planes sold by the greek people that's what happens when you take away people's democracy and our. relative the small clique of people and they've been striking down the whole of the european union as long as they stick with the euro the euro 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 wake up and recognize it as well things a little better than america where thousands of people are digging in with their anti corporate protests it's week five of the occupy wall street rally they call
5:05 am
against a bloated banks and washington's weakness and doing something about it as a growing gap between rich and poor is something which could cause the government here you can expect. a class war seemed impossible in a country worth being wealthy is part of the national greed that is thousands more are coming along and you know the parts of america protesting against the system that they claim works only for the benefit of those super rich individuals and corporations many ask whether america is facing a class war better to tie with the rich are getting richer while the middle class is collapsing class war is being waged. on fortunately the wrong side is winning the so-called one percent of winners are the nation's top corporations which this year because. it's very slow growth as non the less made record profits but thanks to various loopholes many of these corporations pay little or nothing in prices the corporations say they need the tax breaks to be able to invest more into
5:06 am
hard work america's second largest energy producer 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 speech there were up slightly a few thousand in iraq strong business over the years but not significantly not significant on our chevron payroll a few thousand jobs for the really isn't dollars in tax stimulus that the government gave the economy say marriage is largest corporations are sitting on more than three trillion dollars and not investing in the economy unemployment in the us remains over nine percent when we live in a nation where corporations could profit off a child dying at the same time with their parents in a bankruptcy could their trying to pay for these kids medical bills. what does that say about our country the wall street answer to people's rage if you kill all three
5:07 am
will be nobody held a job but as one of the protesters try to put a word of objection call an old on hold on it's not your job month i'm talking to these people hold on i'm not talking to you you can. talk you through your personal success and money has always been part of the american dream realistically and rich 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 richer and the poor are getting poorer is not their idea of the american dream in fact it could be the end of it and the beginning of a class war i'm going to check our reporting from washington our team. and on the way later this hour eyewitnesses and leaders say pointers have overrun the last holdouts of the loyalists in his hotel of sirte. one man who has just
5:08 am
returned from the besieged city tells us his firsthand account of the humanitarian desperation being stuck with waste billions trapped that he stories coming out. and overlooking the streets lessons at least where he declared twenty eleven remembrance for holocaust victims but it's actually targeting survivors of the mass genocide which tell you. they say let peacekeepers have reportedly fired tear gas protesters at a disputed border in northern kosovar they are beginning to remove barricades set out by ethnic serbs after they failed to do so themselves. isn't corso right now and she is joining us live so very it can you tell us more about what's happening that so we've heard about heard reports of tear gas being used on protesters or water you seeing on the ground there. one of the barricades direct control will control tell you the place so that you need to just try to armitage away from the
5:09 am
bullet we sure have been. here from one side which is the. results for the nature that peacekeeping force calls they are brought here early in the morning i can see right now if it's one hundred ok and they all armed and in drive gear the ride here or at least i can see we all the peoples of the results a huge convoy here. is your main component which was for both the cleric a fight for the barricades that is blocking the main road connecting it connecting the southern part of the north and the serbian from the other side of the service he sees the knowledge of them right now he trying to prevent to keep the peacekeepers from would be right here to keep from removing the case from the food and child in from time to time it's very it's very clear. from time to time.
5:10 am
people soldiers like using loudspeakers calling on the crowd to disperse really trying to remind of the central family to play for them i'm tired. of this why do you. not move from college if we will to. the masks because from time to time. for using not what is not exactly. happened friday but actually that has sage influence on human beings as. haitians very time it's white people so far but it's very tense and actually is the wrong at least can taste like things one hears from those who cause so we packed more incidents like this. one drop the tide and actually we people here say that this is kind of a job because last month the case for really tried to use force the removing that
5:11 am
we try and that led to dollars and people here are afraid in the raw fear the fear the growing that they could be patient this time as well i marry you then bat on the ground for quite a while right now so can we expect any escalation of the situation that. you know. what we saw. before it's like. and for gary tate probably in court. if and reparable the attacker playing a game piece. of a third and. that people were injured. i think we're going to ride it out and like i can happen because on one thing. here we want to look in between. third and keep or. actually to reach
5:12 am
a solution are going to go in order. right now so you know how it's we can. only hope that if you could think that if you only you only actually option they have is to try to remove that i for so we can expect that of course and he's more elation here in a lot of them. artes more if international live for northern course of an area thank you very much indeed and of course you can follow mary on twitter as well and join look on from the institute for democracy and corporation joins us now live from paris to listen and thank you very much indeed for a time so that's true nato peacekeepers moved in earlier to calm things down but aren't conscious and tear gas against protesters were the results so what does this tell us about the how high ceilings are running that. it shows i think very highly
5:13 am
indeed the fact is that we need to pay for it's not behaving as a peacekeeping force on the country big night you know conflicts you know really see a conflict which has been for more than ten years. exacerbated feelings on both sides but instead what we should be doing is to allow the situation to calm down for as many years as. it's appalled. and they're doing this in the name of inforcing control over the whole of the costs low cost of though being of course a socialist province of serbia while denying to the serbs in the north of kosovo the right to secede from the secessionist province in other words nato thought and the western powers who control use troops are doing what they have done throughout the entire history of the breakup of yugoslavia which began now a very long time ago in one thousand nine hundred one it's been going on for
5:14 am
decades they are granting the rights to certain populations to cede from the overall unit to denying it to others and intel they saw taht this basic contradiction in their policy conflicts just pull continue and can read and then to see notices military action paying for the every chair. yes i think so i think the fact that. nato has decided as i say to reignite its frozen conflict means that they are determined to enforce control over the whole of kosovo after all if we go back to two thousand and eight when the exploration on independence was so big and in kosovo for almost a decade by there the war in one thousand nine hundred ninety was a distant memory and there was no need to push as the western powers did for that declaration what's happening today in northern ca suppose the direct result of that
5:15 am
is the direct result of its ridiculous idea that kosovo is an independent state although it can be an independent state it ok for and you lex in other words the european union or for it is which to now run cosseted illegally by the way because only the united nations has authority in coffs a vote there determined to push this policy through not to its logical conclusion and i'm afraid it's a very bad sign it's bodes very ill for those serbs who are many not in the north of the probs peace talks between castle and said there fail to agree on removing the be located there now that said how do you estimate their chances are of old negotiating now. i think they have been greatly reduced after all as soon as you have any sort of violence and negotiations become much more difficult because obviously passions are inflamed and positions become entrenched on both sides
5:16 am
frankly i think that the policy of negotiation was always going to be a bit of a dead end enough belgrade wants to try it these latest developments i think show of belgrade policy for the futile waste of time that it is a policy of course consists in doing everything that europe the european union demands of it or at least nearly everything while pretending to the serbian population that it is still seeking to reintegrate course of the interest circular proper i'm sure the serbian people now see through that i'm sure they've seen their government's policy is effectively duplicitous and as far as the people on the ground are concerned i think it's a very sad day for them and i see at perth cassava and need to resolve ranges before i have a plan try and move forward with plans for the recognition or you membership step back from perth of them. well if you mean by step back.
5:17 am
now less likely to join the european union i agree however i don't for a moment agree that it's a step back where you just carried a report from greece where we can all see that the european union is in its death throes the euro is a puppet of break up the greece is about to declare bankruptcy there could be a financial crash in western europe france's credit rating is under threat all these things are happening now in europe it is ridiculous to assume that serbia or any other states can join the european union at this stage and in any case why would they want to have it's an organization that is as i say in its death throes and which has many many structural problems which are not bringing it down so if there is one good thing that kept out of this if one can search for one silver lining in the charge it would indeed be to say that serbia is now after god for me you've met the ship and she was her few weeks ago. all right john mclaughlin from
5:18 am
instead of democracy and cooperation in paris thank you very much indeed for sharing your views with us. and some other developments we're getting here at r.t. from libya and these are live pictures from search right now the way it's sort of the new leadership fighters have taken of it down to loyalist final holdouts in the colonel's own town reports eight cent has now fallen service it is then besieged all weeks with thousands of civilians trapped in the crossfire with a new regime regarding it as symbolic last step to victory as they could die i think and early this return from sirte he says the humanitarian situation there is dire. there is no water the. there is no. medication even oxygen in the hospital they don't have the situation into it. because. i can assure you. if you see them. through
5:19 am
the city you know it's it's it's disaster it's a catastrophe i mean the into most of the mall. or the. community. the resolution one seventy three civilians but. this is not happening for the moment they don't want to go it's a political issue most of the libyans i would say would rather live peaceful you don't have in girl here to all get out and we don't want to get there if you will that we don't want for example if the solution was neutral. all over probably libya any time when gadhafi was involved but no account of a. live pictures from there the early cassie has recently returning from the besieged city of sirte talking to r.t. earlier on and of course we'll bring you more on the rapidly changing developments
5:20 am
in sirte here on r.c. and if you have now to ask dot com we've got a live report on that civilians caught up in the violence. going on our list when you declared this year as one of remembrance for the country's holocaust victims but that doesn't include focusing on the brutality of the people endured under the nazis as r.t. has poured its live reports it's trying to soothe survivors and start. who wants to be known as a nation of of killers with reigning in is the only language in which is even a special word coined that mel called the shooters of jewels and immortal she though she has wiped out ninety six percent of lithuanian jewelry among the highest rates in europe but despite heavy pressure the country's gotta wait without punishing a single person responsible they didn't for and because they don't want to fund they would have one profile they would very easily but for those of melamed found

a lot eleven years ago he published the names of thousands of little radians implicated in the killing of jews at the time he sent the list to the lithuanian or forty's asking them to investigate as many witnesses were still alive the prosecutors have only now answered him and they want him to come to lithuania agreeing as we do not consider mr miller made a suspect there on his summon him to give testimony to either confirm or deny the statements he made that statements among others a detail in lithuanian court victories of the car course were literally to capitated a rabbi and put his head on a window so everyone could see a man called who spoke who reportedly imprisoned some sixty jews in a gamma beaten with quo bars and forced fire hoses down the throats water was then turned on so the stomachs exploded all of this captured by german photographers the source of the claims i witness is who survived the wall very competent and in their helpful and rhetoric. probably needed.
5:22 am
this is not the first time lithuanian prosecutors have summoned holocaust survivors who also took part in the resistance to give testimony critics complain it's a way for us to avoid dealing with its holocaust history this is a campaign of defamation against holocaust survivors who are alive because they escaped the ghetto to join the soviet partisans the only people fighting in this part of the world it's part of a campaign to levi's history in the direction of double genocide the very far right model that posits that communism a nazi is an equal lithuania officially recognizes the crimes committed by the soviet union and nazi regimes are equal and other european states to do the same for nazi crimes used because if you want there were some crimes for one of them we
5:23 am
have a story there in comparatively worse they were killed if only. they were trying to wipe out a whole and so instead of focusing on an eighty six year old holocaust survivor many say lithuanian authorities should rather at least be opening an investigation and resume says he's willing to participate in an investigation for the reasons he believes the lithuanians are trying to run from one if they really are going. we. will bring you everything will be. and in the long run that seems the last thing the country would want. r.t. television. and our news and video reports are streaming live around the clock as. well lining up the way. he said sorry it should turn out in small town of the higher ground picton the answer changes antigay said told by police after being let loose on the street tell him online. and the north says the light on hooligans in
