european banks insurance in the u.s. and so on so there is the possibility of international turmoil the great now are what. liberals have come up with and the level of europe is more for everyone so the greeks more financial toll more than wages because italy the government is terribly unpopular. slane the government is also a popular and you have movements that are not minority movements but there are people protesting in the streets making getting stronger and stronger so they could be political turmoil on top of the financial turmoil. our european debt crisis showing no signs of abating voices are growing louder what in the u.k. to reconsider the country's membership of a struggling block parties discuss this issue among other things with the u.k. conservative party patrick murphy story ends for the interviews coming your way in twenty minutes time but here's a quick look. i mean you're

12:11 am
over but now in the minds of some influential american lobbies and politicians the salon web magazine has looked into the expense records of one lobby group in washington and revealed their few years it has courted groom is to adopt is the intent her version standpoint by arranging interviews with them and paying for their trips and dinners one of those reported by the lobby called the orient strategy is that your only is named allie leak from the washington times he wrote series of pieces undermining the reset between russia and the u.s. one of his articles focus on allegations that wash masterminded last year's explosion near the u.s. embassy. georgia accusations he took from georgia investigators of course as it turns out the lobby that approached the leak is officially contracted by the georgian government we try to get in touch with mr lake he never responded but analysts say it's not so much the georgians agenda that a lobby like orian strategies is pushing forward but rather that of washington
12:12 am
hawks the head of orient was an each to former defense secretary ronald rumsfeld he actively rooted for the war in iraq then he was an h. to senator john mccain well known for his hawkish foreign policy views senator mccain never concealed his desire to see russian leaders overthrown and not just russia dictators or all over the world including bashar assad maybe even mr putin. maybe some chinese maybe or maybe a little bit more nervous because clearly the people of libya rose up we assisted them this group of people. has a large number of institutions that they work through they have a large number of think tanks they have law they have magazines they have newspapers to push this idea of the supremacy of the united states washington has never been short of were mongers the most visible one these days is the republican presidential candidate mitt romney he has already delivered tough words to the
12:13 am
likes of ukraine pakistan and china he also called for boosting america's military spending ending the reset with russia and unfolding a robust missile defense program in europe america is not destined to be one of several equally balanced global powers america must lead the world around these pitching himself as the candidate of the military industrial complex hoping that they by. america's best military industry will be first to benefit from the strong rhetoric of blushing because war hawks some of the biggest corporations are transnational corporations that make weapons that benefit from an ideology that's the. united states must exercise military supremacy and have an endless arms race and those big companies are tied to the biggest banks on wall street there is a military industrial complex and it is facilitated by having a pretext for endless war so when president obama said will push the reset button
12:14 am
with russia this whole lobby and growing industry say well no that's bad because any relaxation of tensions means less of an excuse to produce more and more weapons the u.s. is the world's number one weapons producer and exporter and countries like georgia are looking to become the next market for american weapons we are quite familiar with u.s. politicians influence groups in washington that call for the end of the reset with russia but it's not just russia where tensions are being ramped up the same people are doing a lot of fear mongering against countries like china iran and the list is pretty long actually while experts agree the only side that could possibly benefit from a potential confrontation is america's military machine definitely not the people in those countries involved i'm going to check our reporting from washington i keep . a lock if i were all street protests continue and the us and our correspondent lisa found a close eye on. follow all the updates on her where later in that they are
