nonviolent protesters it really exposes the corruption of the system and the fact that the police are fielded to protect the one percent and not to protect the free speech rights of the rest of us that actually draws more support for the protest they are finally drawing attention to the fact that we have an economy actually not only in the united states but in the world that is predominantly working for the for the one percent of people who control the financial system it is not working for the ninety nine percent we've had so much conversation in the united states fueled by corporate media focusing attention on the problem is the problem is the government skipping over the fact that wall street has created and that is devoted primarily to making money for rich people through time financial data we have to address that issue you know people are complaining that the occupy wall street people don't have clear demands it's actually quite clear what they want they want

their economy back they want their government back they want their future back and they actually want a country that operates by principles of true democracy and real markets which which work for everyone. u.s. author david korten springs to me there and later in the program we give the demonstrators in new york a chance to get their voices heard again to. these we are so greedy and so. money and wealth and materialism and consumerism. laurie half of us heads down to occupied zuccotti park in the big apple for a t.d. pass protesters for their message to wall street. and germany's multicultural melting pot boils over as immigration anger drives a deepening divide through communities r t reports from berlin. that attack by army desert is in syria's reportedly left seventeen soldiers dead

according to human rights groups it comes after the arab league condemned the continued killings of civilians in the country nineteen pro regime protests now the arab ministerial committee is due to hold another round of talks with syrian officials over the weekend to try to end the crisis the u.n. estimates more than three thousand people have been killed since march when the uprising against president bashar assad began some of the protesters have also been calling for a no fly zone over the country the aerial support from nato warplanes this is in syrian writer democracy campaign there shall kill or told r.t. that most of the population doesn't support for intervention. or against military intervention whether today tomorrow or in ten years time even if the regime is to ny late everyone of us would still be against military intervention we fight for freedom and we don't want to add external slavery to our domestic want we don't want it to become a part of the struggle between the international and internal forces syrians are peaceful they want to progress under conditions of freedom and development and they

don't want to turn into a concentration camp a poly go on philology countries. brian becker of the u.s. based antiwar coalition believes that unlike libya syria is too strong for the alliance to intervene that's why the west wants to spark a civil war to bring regime change. and we're using the same lingo the same scenario the syrian opposition is borrowing a page from the playbook for libya they know that they can come to power only with the advance with the civil war with the intervention through multiple means of the nato powers of the western powers and i think what we can tell the syrian people is look at what happened in libya the issue of a no fly zone sounds like go a way to defend civilians it's really a way to begin the war to begin military operations against the syrian air force or air defenses i think the first and this is the plan of the obama administration is not direct military intervention but to promote

a civil war inside of syria i think they realize that the syrian government is substantially stronger militarily and within the arab world as compared to khadafi but they can use the human beings who have grievances valid or not to be the human materiel for a civil war and i think the u.s. government officials signaling the syrian opposition and the syrian president that bay should learn the lesson of libya is a clear message begin the civil war they want to weaken syria first as a as a prelude to a more direct intervention for regime change massive protests for economic justice is due to take place in the israeli capital later on saturday the organizers are calling for a repeat of september's rallies many half a million people march over social conditions called the student right to bradley burston says people are now questioning everything they've previously blind eye eye to. the automatic and and basically behind the scenes

allocation of resources from many government ministries to new housing developments in the occupied territories may be very much more difficult to carry out without scrutiny the questioning has a lot to do with transparency the question has a lot to do with what actually is happening with the resources that are going to defense and we're going to the settlements and even if the settlement activity is not blocked the fact of the of the allocations the widespread nature of allocations for many ministries and the nature of the subsidies that go out to the settlements may change people's minds of eventually about the wisdom of continuing to build there. a massive financial pyramid scheme which wiped out millions of people's life savings in russia or the one thousand nine hundred back it's eccentric found this time for a dodgy accounting but say it was in ukraine killing up to hand over the money.

explains why. the twenty eleven russian hit movie the pyramid depicts a robin hood of the nine hundred ninety s. a businessman who promises well for people and confronts the oligarchs. the real story behind the split was a sad episode in russia supposed soviet history the financial pyramid called attracted millions vowing to multiply their investment many times in the end it went bust up to fifteen million people lost their life savings hope i don't feel like i'm a sinner but about ninety four it was undermined by the government so i knew m.m.m. emerged with virtually unlimited resources absolutely i'm controlled so the situation was not acceptable and everything was done to eliminate it sort of game over already the driving force behind the m.m. movement spent five years in prison for fraud but now the man often called the

russian bernie madoff is back seventeen years since his financial pyramid had walked the post soviet space is back with another financial scheme and while hard to find any commercial enterprise the streets of ukraine cities have been literally flooded with calls to join in with twenty eleven. we can do more is the slogan of the new complain at mit's it is another pyramid and is a risky venture but still promises people that they will make money this. is a virtual currency called dollars which constantly goes up in price from twenty to sixty percent a month at this price only i can see it some individuals exchange money between themselves without any obligations got into some conditions it is a fundamental point when there is no legal entity new joint account new office in other words everything is shared between millions of private accounts it means no one can put an end to it. financial experts in ukraine see little surprise in my

forties latest scheme given the rough patch the country is going through the national bank is like in order to not allow the depreciation of national currency is like introducing in your restrictions and a lot of people on. government machine the bureaucracy is against something like a minister told the press in the financial markets and people are looking for an exit nobody claims his actions are legal ukraine's politicians disagree the ruling party wants current laws tightened to block them and from making off with vulnerable people's nast eggs m m m m m two thousand and eleven there's a provision in financial services and requires a license providing financial services without a license is a criminal offense. m m m twenty eleven already has one point five million investors and counting. again convinced it is a road to riches try telling that to the many millions of victims left with nothing

and still reeling from his previous ponzi. scheme r t reporting from here in ukraine. coming up we're a pansy economy it's an odor of decay right now it's fears grow that the world's third largest economy is heading into a massive financial crisis unable to deal with the mounting debt coming up. next though germany's in the damage limitation drive to curb a rise in the series of a nationalist groups during decades of the now defunct multi culti policy the more the country tried to unite its ethnic communities more force them apart voters eyes are now turning towards hardline right wing parties as is tom bar reports the worry is that the cultural divide could violently society. what do these two very different pieces of music have in common they're both

performed in germany and they increasingly represent clashing forms of society here we want. immigrants germany just the illegal ones yes and after that the other day i was told that's the view of the national democratic party or n.p. d. here in germany they've supported many concerts attended by right wing supporters but their opponents argue they promote hatred they achieved that in some regions in east germany there are no immigrants. it's not because of economy poisons but it's because nobody was ready to go there because it's there always threatened one anti nazi group recently managed to do right wing concert goers into wearing their bogus t. shirts when they were washed the rightwing slogan dissolved to reveal a message urging the wearer to leave their near nazi group however german police

intelligence estimates that there are eight to ten thousand hardcore militant neo nazis in the country. those behind the stunt say that those numbers mean germany's problem is in the top three in europe every year in germany statistically you have about fifteen thousand twenty thousand hate crimes. of them about eight hundred violent crimes so that's also been in the top five for you was when we put accusations of inciting hatred to the n.p.t. yes they were unmoved germany is the state of the germans but if you're today you have parts in berlin with more than thirty forty percent of foreignness when it's just too much germany has large ethnic minority populations from turkey the arab world and beyond many families now have second and third generation members with german citizenship and they're gaining political

representatives who defy anyone who says they don't belong here m p d or other parties. could not to say to me or take to this part of me and to be german whereas most political parties are now finding candidates from the ethnic groups they represent those on the right of posting the banners and slogans with the message go back where you came from with such a political divide the potential is there for german politics to become a lot nastier it's not immediately obvious that this fruit and vegetable store is at the edge of the turkish district in berlin it looks much like a fruit and vegetable stall elsewhere in the city but the question being fought over in political debates is will this region become a route for cultural exchange or a border between essentially foreign territories tom watson r.t. . and intense ethnic division in africa's newest countries reached disturbing levels of violence this last week where

historic theater throws open its doors after a massive renovation with regard to. the highlights of the limelight. clouds are gathering of the land of the rising sun with japan lurching worryingly towards a financial crisis the country's one of the huge national debt as it struggles to try to recover from this year's earthquake and tsunami disaster. looks at how japan's dire circumstances leaving it trapped and teetering on the edge. thank in many ways the japanese economy is like this fish. caught dried out frozen and now having great chunks of value sliced clean. take the

industry itself japanese sushi shops raking in about seventeen billion dollars annually with hungry customers consuming nine million tonnes of sisterhood along the way. it's an addiction repeated all over the world but it's not helping the main exporters which has been left floundering. japanese food is the most popular food in the world and definitely i think there are many other companies like ours doing the same business and everywhere else in these companies are suffering major consequences from a strong. when the national currency is up it pushes exports down japanese goods just too expensive to compete on the wild stage and its profits disappear so do people's livelihoods stagnant growth the strong man and the massive national debt some economists korea japan maybe all

a few years away from its own major economic crisis and since this east asian nation remains the world's number three economy the consequences of the big global this is something japan's political leaders are determined to avoid and many are calling for urgent action. and you would have been easy industry can probably enjoy the current seventy five year into the dollar level for a little while but if this situation doesn't change over a longer period i think we're going to see japanese factories and large companies move their operations overseas places like vietnam thailand or china this would lead to a hollowing out of japanese domestic industry and creates unemployment japan is facing an extraordinary. crisis. despite the worries of the ruling party lawmakers it is not clear there's anything the japanese government can really do to prevent the soaring from leading japanese businessman stock money. home

there in japan when supply industry is gradually losing its ability to sell their product in machines to just start selling it and since the world faces this condition it's japanese companies have to look for whatever opportunities they can discover but that's not going to be easy in a country where the government itself it's deeply in the red japan has the highest national debt among major economies owing almost twice as much as the economy makes in an entire year couple that with the funds needed to rebuild after the devastation only by the earthquake and tsunami earlier this year and it seems japan is fighting a battle it may not be able to win she horrific mass to r.t. tokyo. now thousands continue to protest across america as part of the anti corporate occupy movement the mainstream media is at pains to point out the lack of

a unified agenda for this return to work all started in new york to discover that every demonstrator has a special something to say. the protesters of occupy wall street are clearly fed up with wall street and with washington so what do you think they would have to say to their would be oppressors this week let's talk about that i would like to say on your human beings also do you see the suffering that people are going through do you know what it's like we want the health insurance that you have everybody should have that health insurance we should have the basic rights in the basic care care of we the people more than your bank account we need you to join us because they're just people to be an us versus them we need your help poor brute personhood what is that and corporations that are have felt as though it's ok to exploit people and exploit the planet

for profit and profit alone so what do you have to say to those corporations well i don't have to say anything other than i don't support them how do you say be fair and share to someone or something that does not know what what kind of concept this is and do qadi we practice where a community where we share our resources these people are so greedy and so fair to buy money and wealth and materialism and consumerism do you still have a message for all these corporate bigwigs who are taking millions and not supporting their people and my message isn't to them my message is to make sure that these soldiers that are here that they continue to believe that this conversation is important and that these people are involved in a process to constructing a role where dreams are possible right now dreams are impossible in america for a lot of people these people need to believe that dreams must continue that's why we're here so it seems like the bottom line is the protesters are less interested in talking to wall streeters and washington themselves and more interested in
