in the country the arab minister ariel committee is due to hold another round of talks with syrian officials later on sunday to help end the crisis the u.n. estimates more than three thousand people have been killed since march when the anti regime uprising began some of the protesters have also been calling for a no fly zone over the country and aerial support from nato warplanes dissident syrian writer and of democracy campaigner and shelter you are told are true but most of the population doesn't support foreign intervention. people were against military intervention what does it say to morrow or in ten years time even if the grazie mr nigh lays every one of us would still be against military intervention we fight for freedom and we don't want to add external slavery to our domestic law 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 for larger countries. from of the foundation for political economic and social research and believes that a no fly zone will not help to resolve the political crisis. i don't think that no fly zone would be an african way to face with the assad regime because when we see the development of the protests and the brutal crackdown of the city regina against the protesters we see that the syrian regime has been using its its led forces a lot except for occasional use of helicopters to shut down the protesters and the using a no fly zone like the one in libya i don't think would be an official way to face with police the brutal crackdown or to regime strong parallels have been as with the libyan case and the syrian case i think this is a grave error because there are grave differences between the syrian case and the

libyan kane's when we look at the syrian case i think it's completely different i mean if you look at it's like social fabric or the sectarian lines in syria. you know all groups i mean from the opposition and also the fighting these groups have been living together the syrians or if you get your feet those will let you know a scenario like the one in libya. and now to israel where thousands of demonstrators protesting against social inequality and government spending policy took to the streets of tel aviv again after a nearly two month break his post near brings us the latest. the last demonstration back in september in early september sold a million people come to the streets of the country over nine months was satisfied with that turnout and after that a lot of the protesters many of them are university students return to process and things that didn't take a little bit of it all but said he now what we have seen in the last few hours is

not only attention to what is happening internally fair should be israeli air force has also known strikes on southern gaza eleven people have been killed five of them who are members of the islamic jihad organization that is one holds responsible for a grad missile that was fired into israel earlier in the week be concern here and go talking to people is that this story of social demonstrations will now be missed by many in the international community as it focuses on what is happening externally and certainly the mainstream international media is making a lot of what is going on in gaza to the detriment of what is happening here and with me to talk about this is nicholas simmons who is one of the protesters nicolette why are you back on the streets after a two month. knesset the parliament is returning from his recess tomorrow that the day after i mean. we just heard that they'll reconsider their budgetary

considerations and the problem has been that the budgetary considerations have been about parties and politics they've been about raising the tycoons who seem to control everything we want the budgetary considerations to consider just a general good of the country here in israel is very very important to realize we are not in economic recession a problem isn't that we don't have enough money problem is that it's being mismanaged the government decisions about what to do the money is bad but gold so that's worth thirty when you hear the cries of people here and really the slogan is the people demand of social justice people here saying that the government consumed what it wants to attract attention but they certainly will not give up on what they say are very legitimate demands. parties are reporting for us there now columnist and writer bradley burston says people are now questioning everything they've previously turned a blind 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 maybe 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 their millions of russians that lost their life savings in the one nine hundred ninety s. in what proved to be a massive financial pyramid scheme and now it's back its eccentric founder has come

up with another financial plan and in ukraine savers are getting in line to hand over their hard earned money like senior shops explains why. the train's eleven russian hit movie the pyramid depicts a robin hood of the nine hundred ninety s. and businessman who promises well for people and confronts the oligarchs. the real story behind the split was a sad episode in russia's supposed soviet history a 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. i don't feel like i'm a sinner what about the m.m.m. ninety four it was undermined by the government so i knew him in the world emerged with virtually unlimited resources absolutely i'm control of the situation was not acceptable and everything was done to a little bit silly game of rodion 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 i know little pyramid had walked across soviet space if back with another financial thing and whilst and what he could hardly find any commercial enterprise the streets of ukraine cities have been literally flooded with calls to join in with the m.m.m. twenty eleven. we can do more is the slogan of the new complaint but broadly admits 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 going until some conditions it is a fundamental point when there is no legal entity to join a kind of new office in other words everything is shared between millions of

private accounts and means no one can put an end to it. financial experts in ukraine see little surprising maharajah's latest scheme given the rough patch the country is going through the national bank is like you know ordered to not allow the depreciation of national currency is like introduced him in the euro threatens and a lot of people understand government bureaucracy is again something like administer to the press and the financial markets and people looking for an exit he claims his actions are legal ukraine's politicians disagree the ruling party wants current laws tightened to block m.n. from making off with vulnerable people's nasty bags m m m m m two thousand and eleven there's a provision for a national service and requires a license providing financial services without a license as a criminal offense. remember 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 history response. alexi russia ski r.t. reporting from here in ukraine occupy wall street in the states are steady measures in europe and in the country of the rising sun there are also financial worries. day with us to find out why the world's third largest economy may be on the brink of collapse. germany is seeing a rise in neo nazi ism as voters are eagerly turning toward hardline right wing parties after decades of a multicultural policy proved in effect of the ethnic communities of the country have only grown for a part and as tom barton reports the worry is that the cultural divide will be that .

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 the immigrants germany first the illegal ones yes and after that the i will be of a tool that's the view of the national democratic party or n.p.c. here in germany they've supported many concepts attended by right wing supporters of their opponents argue they promote hatred they achieve that and some regions in east germany there are nearly no immigrants. it's not because of economy reasons but it's because nobody wants really to go there because it's they're always threatened one and the nazi group recently managed to do right when concert goes into wearing their bogus t. shirts when they were washed the right wing slogan dissolved to reveal

a message urging the wearer to leave the near nazi group. however german police intelligence estimates that there are eight to ten thousand hardcore militant near 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 eight crimes. of them about a hundred violent crimes so that's also in the top five in europe when we put accusations of inciting hatred to the n.p.t. they were unmoved germany is the state of the germans but if you are today you have parts in berlin with more than thirty forty percent of foreign us and it's just too much germany has large ethnic minority populations from turkey the arab world and beyond and 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 mpg or out of this. could not to say to me i would take to move this part of we're going to germany where as most political parties are now finding candidates from the ethnic groups they represent those on the right of posting up banners and slogans or 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 and 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. . excuse me you know

recover from this year's earthquake and tsunami disaster she. now looks at. circumstances are leaving it trapped and teetering on the edge. in many ways the japanese economy is like this fish. caught dried out frozen and now having great chunks of value sliced clean no. take the industry itself japanese sushi shops are raking in about seventeen billion dollars annually with hungry customers consuming nine million tonnes of sister along the way. if an addiction repeated all around 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 year. 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 to people's livelihoods stagnant growth that strong man and a massive national debt some economists korea japan maybe all the theory has a way of its own major economic crisis and says this east asian nation remains the world's number three economy the consequences of bad the big global this is something japan's political leaders are determined to avoid and many are calling for urgent action. and he's industry could probably enjoy the current seventy five years of 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 create unemployment is facing an extraordinary economic crisis. that despite the worries of ruling party lawmakers it is not clear there is anything the japanese government can really do to prevent the story from the leading japanese businessman stop. money. engine hand when supply industry is gradually losing its ability to sell their products and machines just aren't selling since the world faces these conditionals 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 is the plea 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 and leached by the earthquake and tsunami earlier this year and it seems japan is fighting a battle it may not be able to win. couric matsu r.t. tokyo now as thousands continue to protest across america as part of the anti-corporate occupy movement the mainstream media is that pains to point out that there is a a lack of a unified agenda or harnessed returned to where it all started in new york to discover that every demonstrator has a special something to say to wall street. the protesters of occupy wall street are clearly bad up with wall street and with washington so what do you think it would have to say to there would be oppressors this week let's talk about that i would like to say you are human beings also do

you see the suffering the 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 and the basic care we the people more than your banker we need you to join us. because they're just people to be an us versus them we your help corporate 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 share to someone or something that does not know what what kind of concept this is andrew qadi we practice we're a community where we share our resources these people are are so greedy and so bed by money and wealth and materialism and consumerism you still have

a message for all these corporate bigwigs who are taking millions and not supporting their feet in my messages and shouldn't my message is to make sure that the soldiers that are here and they continue to believe that this conversation is important and that these people are involved in a process of 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 keeping the conversation and the power among the people themselves. that wraps up our news this hour i'm sean thomas and thanks for watching r.t. international i'll be back with the headlines in just a few minutes.
