in droves holding talks to form a new government of national unity after he survived a crucial confidence vote in parliament he wants a new coalition to implement the deal with the eurozone and i.m.f. to slash the country's foreign debts in return for massive reforms in the sterett and cuts but his plans have been rebuffed by the opposition leader who wants to stand down to further details from athens. there's a lot of confusion about what that coalition government is going to look like that we still have is the passenger and his governments and by that called insulation in parliaments in the early hours of the morning it was very very close it was always going to be it was a way decisions but no changes really everyone still waiting to see what the details of this will be and as we said before the devil really is in the details and so a lot of uncertainty still remains about was going to happen now moving forward would help guide us a bit see this political quagmire i'm joined by. professor of economics at athens university. it's very uncertain what's going to happen now can you tell us

a bit more about what the politicians are doing and we've heard a lot of people saying that playing political games can they afford to do that at such a critical point well the big picture is not what happened in greece is what happened yes the g twenty when they couldn't agree on anything so not agreeing on anything means that austerity packages will continue as the only policy coming out of the euro zone the pressure on politicians of the central issue center right because of the stereotype measures is that the leader of the right wing party wants quick elections so he could do well and not be implicated in any of the austerity packages we've had so far were asked up and drove a leader of the center left party doesn't want quick elections because he's deeply implicated in these policies and wants a national government a government of national unity so that the responsibility for the austerity package is shared with if you will armey sarah there is one missing actresses and that is

the people of greece who have been demonstrating for the last six months from the street and really i see no solution that doesn't at least meet some of their demands for your stereotype recession more austerity measures vicious cycle being removed somehow being. and political leaders actually addressing the social needs of the people in this country and indeed of european peace really is a very valid point what a lot of people are talking about here today is that is the missing ingredient that public opinion here very very disappointed at the announcement yesterday at the what we see him playing out in the last week really as he said that message of uncertainty at a time when what everyone was hoping for was a unified front for some decisive action and that's not what we're seeing it's all in of course moving forward the situation looking on increasingly unstable ground.

investment advisor patrick young says the rest of the eurozone is feeling the heat of political fallout from greece's government fails to bring the financial situation under control. the whole situation we have here is a pole little disaster area i realize we're talking about economics but the problem is as we've been hearing the greek politicians have decided to have an overall political argument and that's basically holding the rest of the euro zone around the sun this week we've had happened trying very very hard to sort of renegotiate in some way shape or form with the e.u. and the euro zone stood firm wife because again it's politics mrs merkel can't afford to spend any more money or she won't get reelected mr sarkozy he needs to get results and he's just had a complete disaster of the g twenty meeting where he promised so much and failed to deliver anything and therefore greece is now hanging on the end of a thread more or less dying to go over a cliff it's going to go bankrupt and it's probably going to take the euro zone with it and that really is

a tragedy and i actually think for the rest of the euro zone it would be a lot better to throw out the rawest member of the night club at the moment and therefore hopefully everybody else will get back to their drinks and they will sit around and they will behave like good corporate citizens and acutely that means obviously italy because this is a big festering sore the problem of the italian government and it's complete so far inability to manage to get its house in order. coming up later in the program fighting corporate evil imbues flourishes we've done little more than widen the gap between rich and poor making some resort a drastic measures as we report for a bit later. next the police crackdown on empty corporate demonstrations continues in the united states as officers disperse a demonstration this time in washington d.c. and remove protesters terms three activists would not. but the driver was in charge of the california city of oakland police leashed to flash grenades batons on

protesters and the made over a hundred arrests several people were seriously injured including a u.s. army veteran it's the second major violent clash involving police and protesters in the city in a fortnight made time to new york where the occupy movement began protesters camped out in zuccotti park and they're bracing themselves for a showdown artie's miniport my word to find out what the authorities in the big apple may have in store for them. the occupy wall street movement has cemented its presence here in zuccotti park for nearly eight weeks but now many believe that the city will try to evacuate demonstrators under the pretext of crime new york city mayor michael bloomberg is now accusing these activists of the danger in the entire community saying they are failing to report crimes that are taking place here the activists here say that they try to police minor infractions but when it comes to very serious crime or violence these activists say they do take reports to the

police some media outlets have also reported that it is actually new york city police officers some at least that have encouraged criminals and homeless people to come down to zuccotti park in an effort to stir up some trouble the n.y.p.d. has denied those accusations we did speak with a few of the hundreds of activists that are down here and here's what they. sad to say my experience has been that i have been safe here and i feel safe here but i think that you know the mayor is discussing things quick time that aren't haven't been reported what are those kinds that you think the mayor is probably gearing up to make another attempt to turn the us from the park simply because someone walked into the park doesn't mean that they're part of the movement a lot of these out with that even critical of us characterize anyone who is within you know a mile radius of this place as a protester and therefore reflective of our movement but as you can see anyone can come in here and that's fine you know we want to welcome people in but certainly

because someone destructive doesn't mean they reflect what we're doing or that we promote what they're doing princeton professor and activist after cornel west who's been a huge supporter of the occupation movement was down here in zuccotti park r.t. had a chance to catch up with him to get his thoughts on what mayor bloomberg has recently said i just think is wrong whether you're on david trying to come up with a rationalization with another convincing reason do you think there's anything criminal about you know dangerous about this encampment that i think every section of new york city has a day and then. what it is they have a human community and every human community has something still supporting oh my god yes one hundred twenty percent overall though all the activists that we have spoken with today say they feel as safe today as they have felt since day one of these occupy wall street movement they say the momentum is growing bigger it's growing louder it's growing larger and they are here to stay reporting from wall

street marina portnoy r.t. and other correspondents to see catherine also covering the occupy protests you've had to watch these two district for more from her she was due to see just police weighed in to break up the latest protest in washington you can log on to twitter feed for coverage of the instant clue to have pictures posted that he is taking to . one of the demands driving the occupy movements the crease tax on the rich that could help bolster the beleaguered u.s. budget a little later this hour we face. what's of new yorkers think about that. as people get wealthier a higher percentage of the think they have enough until they pass a certain point worse as you get even wealthier you want even more so how often this takes the streets of the big apple to gauge public opinion it's on air just a couple of minutes time. tens of thousands of people are teaming up with a growing occupy a movement to take a shot of america's big bags the south today it's officially called buying transfer day in the u.s. in the aims to deprive leading bankers of their customers i spoke to about organize

a christian christian she said that it's all for the benefit of the people in the community the goal is not you hurt anyone and the goal is to show by it's the local level so far credit unions have seen an additional six hundred fifty thousand new members we are seeing positive improvements on the local level american economic expertise to save that the security fence that we use for credit unions are actually a lot more state and banks and that is because of the difference in how profits and so credit unions heart actually according to experts more state than any of the biggest is that recently have a right to make a profit my response that is exactly why it's sort of a transfer day that they have rights make a profit and i have a right to decide if i'm going to give them my money or not i definitely don't think being transferred is a shift to socialism and the political sense i think this is a consumer community reawakening. israel's because the. activists from

a blockaded flotilla the try to carry medical supplies to gaza to boat canadian carrying twenty seven foreign nationals a search so from turkey on wednesday they were boarded by israeli navy gods and towed away similar protests versus what intercepts of the past and it may last year the killing of nine turkish nationals on quote a full term caused an international outcry israel had since ease the blockade but activists to whether a rough told me the palestinian people more than. the problem that we have here is a humanitarian crisis but it is one that has been created by deliberate israeli policies so we need to change that policy so that palestinians are allowed to lead a normal life i didn't have five life and i have to live on handouts now the situation in gaza is that one point five million people live in an open air prison and as a result of deliberate israeli policy have been reduced to needing handouts eighty percent of the population now of gaza is food aid dependent and that's

a problem but it is a political problem and therefore these flotillas are going to challenge that policy of this inhumane blockade going to the united nations as a way of the palestinian leadership saying that we need the rights of the palestinian people respected and we think that through this mechanism we will have more avenues by which to hold israel responsible for continued violation of our rights and that is something that should be supported by all because in the end all of these different countries are part of the united system the united nations that is supposed to maintain world peace and defend people suman rights but it seems that no action is taken in violation of palestinian human rights occurs and palestinians are looking for avenues by which to hold israel accountable. the u.n. nuclear watchdog will next week published a report suggesting iran's built a nuclear testing facility and it said to show satellite images to prove it but surrounds dismissed the alleged u.n. claims calling fabricated now these allegations also come amid reports of possible

military action against the country's nuclear facilities on friday the israeli president said when it comes to iran quote that the international community is closer to finding a military solution than a diplomatic one henningsen editor of the info was website told me the west has wanted to take action against iran is what an attack would inflame the whole middle east region. well the report that's due to come out next week by the international atomic energy agency is basically saying that iran is reached a stage in its research where this is the precursor to an a bomb to an tomic bomb and what they've done is they've done research into do to ride nucular physics and also neutron physics ok and this is meant to be some sort of implicating crime that is going to allow the west to play sanctions on iran or to have weapons inspectors go in and search for but this is research is being done all over the world in a lot of different countries university so if iran is guilty of doing this level of

research then they'll have to put sanctions on about one hundred countries there's an issue of timing coming up the west wants to strike iran but it wants to do it at a time of its choosing and all they're doing is just revising this whole new killer threat issue the leak that came out of allegedly came out of you the shin bet or mossad that there were already operational plans to have a preemptive strike against iran from israel that was leaked out benjamin netanyahu was absolutely flabbergasted and the hard line look at hardline we were really upset about this leak but thank god and i tip my hat to these people in israel who did leak this information because it's absolute madness if you look at the geopolitical situation right now in the region an attack on iran is going to basically put gasoline on a fire there is already reached incredible temperatures so it's not something we can afford. the campaign away to say to russia's lower house of parliament started seven parties have until beginning of december to woo voters with all their

speeches and print media that is a country which over investigates what chances each party's got. for the next thirty days old t.v. sets in russia will be talking politics politics and politics in other words but on another labor the rule of the people and socialism at the top freedom solidarity and justice our free sanctuary laws some of the most storied going on is a party which stands for the poor and for russian and. so is on our banners future is with us on banners educating for the top political parties and head of the december vote have been out for a while but the most cherished cake three t.v. and radio air has just been sliced seven parties are in the running for the duma seats and while the country's main political force the united russia party is only concerned by how big a majority will be getting this time many are there is that desperate to just make

high he would create a powerful lobby for western minded liberals in parliament probably of himself was even considering running for president for the complaint failed. it field because of crocodiles personality he thought that to run a party is the same as to run a business this is a strategic mistake he considered other party members who'd been with the right cause much longer than him not as teammates but as his subordinates and they responded by asking him. the right cause will take part in the vote but it's listed among outsiders one month ahead of the actions polls suggest united russia will gain at least forty three percent of the votes coming second hour communists with fourteen percent the liberal democrats will secure at least nine percent for the other four parties it will be largely about how they perform in t.v. debates and to secure at least one seat in the duma they will have to overcome a five percent threshold to mention it very for has the united russia party his

list has even put his political future on the table saying his possible post as the country's prime minister could depend on how well the party reforms at the election booths prime minister putin is also backing united russia and has even become somewhat of a trademark of the party over the years they've chosen december's douma lectures will each receive as sparkling new tea set a welcome gift from the government the specifics of the order are exacting the subtle be made from white porcelain each with a gold stream each cup must hold a certain amount of tea interesting new though not all sets are of the same size two hundred four are tea and coffee sets for twelve persons while the remaining four hundred fifty are just scaled down six person sets. and while it's not clear which deputies will win which set some joke the discrepancy means they are not across the party has spawned create plans for

indigenous people of rural india the government has called the maoists the single biggest security threat to india and it's held them responsible for displacing and killing thousands of civilians but far from the jungles of india a new maoist revolution is brewing like the movement in the rural areas this one is also anti-establishment but is largely focused on overthrowing multinational companies and development the maoist argue that the arrival of multinational companies here is actually caused a further divide between rich and poor they want to stay in india without the presence of quote unquote dominating western companies where everyone has access to basic right meet varvara the brains behind the uprising the highly educated man is in most senses the opposite of his counterparts in the jungle armed with a pen and paper and sitting in his relatively modern flat in hyderabad rao is seen

a taste of what the t.v. dot com. is the occupy protest movement grips the u.s. for a second month opinions are divided over some of it's a one of them is a tax hike for rich americans who demonstrators blame for the economic downturn in the first place but his lower half of it has been on the streets of new york to see if the people there agree. the general public has been vilifying the very rich lately so what does the public consider too much money this week let's talk about that pardon a million too much money yeah if someone has more than a million should they pay more in taxes yes they absolutely said yes but i want too

much money so i'm not going to answer. those ten million too much too much for too much when one of them women when millions enough to how i would say if people make more than a million dollars and they have that in their bank account should they be forced to give back a more of their a moral and an ounce in general interestingly i saw once that the to answer the question do you have enough money to curve goes like this as your wealth increases so people who don't have a lot feel that they don't have enough as they as people get wealthier a higher percentage of the think they have enough until they pass a certain point whereas as you get even wealthier you want even more so if you made ten million dollars i would give some of it away it's too much money are people that don't give it away and have that much in the wrong i guess it's a personal decision i just think that if you make that much money you could share it with someone that doesn't have so much should they be forced to through taxes

like they do in scandinavia maybe so because sometimes if you don't force someone to do something and are going to do it no matter how much wealth you consider to be obscene the bottom line is when it comes to money it's hard for anyone to not want just a little bit more. by the way of x. cause or us oh it's possible just the moves of a hoff dollars true story coming up first of a couple of top stories just for you watching.
