corporate greed and wealth inequality and that infests in all fifty states i dynamic american movement not seen since the sixty's as the power of the people grows louder police force strong peaceful activists the tons line to buy nice and throw to the ground unarmed activists pitch tents law enforcement flash grenades. but when. you think that. people exercising their democratic rights are. why would. there. be to. you but and so they go and. tell we all. get them

disappear that is. lucky thousands of occupy activists have been jailed throughout the two month campaign the mass arrests of eight hundred on the brooklyn bridge garnered international attention but this image of an eighty four year old former schoolteacher pepper sprayed during a demonstration captures the crackdown activists face brought to a boiling point by economic injustice and a political system failing the majority protesters demonstrated unprecedented resilience. and then u.s. authorities began occupying the occupations one by one even activists under the pretext of health or safety concerns a raid on the headquarters in new york came at one am hundreds of armed officers destroying and displacing the heart of this democratic movement you can't evict an idea to the idea that we are than i do. one percent of americans that you know we

need to resist the good points of financial institution the corporations great record of excess of those messages that are being spread around the country every time the stories come in and try to make some type of sense of strike in a cowardly way at one am without any warning it shows the public support for this because the numbers in the streets double the next day people come out out and determined to carry on what began as an occupation in a park has grown into a national movement fighting for principles from wall street to time square support for the occupy movement has cost the streets uniting tens of thousands of strangers bound by common hardship and frustration two months in there is no denying the grassroots movement has become the brand of the big apple the social marker in america. for niall artsy new york. also. is keeping a close watch on developments around the occupy movement the latest just follow her

twitter feed she's posted nice pictures sobs and talk about the tent city that's become a prostitute but. you know that's the question. activists and police officers. the radio host alex jones these the apparent health hazard cited for the fictions was a setup from the start that even the very idea of protests in the u.s. but discovered it and in detroit as well as new york it confirmed. that when they let homeless people out who've been arrested for being drunk in public or sitting on the sidewalk or they're released from prison or homeless shelters or mental institutions they tell him go to austin occupy go to new york occupy if we want to rush you there so for the last month they've been sending all the homeless people and mentally ill people and prisoners there so they can then demonize it and

say look people are going to the bathroom on the ground when there's a port authority people or fights are breaking out there is robbery so now they're in the business of demonizing it infiltrating it trying to manufacture or dig up dirt on them as a way to generally. gain and eyes all forms of protest in this country ahead of the food depressionary collapse bank runs and everything else that's in the works you know i see the police in here talk radio demonizing occupy wall street across the board calling a bunch of dirty criminals the new york post called them a rabble which means basically criminal scum this idea that protesting and demonstrating is criminal or is scummy or filthy is really un-american anti-democratic across the world. parties are you know in costco you spoke to the rap star technique and says the whole and see wall street movement is reaching a slender version of civil liberties it's a preview of what's coming up next. the idea of america is to give democracy and

freedom to people but i think that now more than ever it's become about placating people and about pacifying them so they don't put the amount of freedom that they're guaranteed almost like when put in do that you seem to know your rights back happens more and more i mean even if you want to make this entirely about occupy wall street with even the people that are down to each and every single occupy wall street that are sitting there holding the law that have little to say this is still see this civil rights every single flaw in this is excuses left and right we want to clean the park so we're going to move everywhere now. the syrian the president has until saturday to stop a violent crackdown on protesters and go on monitoring team in the country that's the ultimatum from the arab league which threatens to tighten the financial noose around the regime by stepping down heavy sanctions and well the drumbeat for

international pressure against bashar assad gets around there are fears make a bad situation worse. so the arab league votes and then a senior turkish official openly discusses the possibility of imposing a buffer zone on the syrian side of the border to give century to refugees in other words direct military action all over peter the libya scenario that seems likely to get annoyed because not a demand of reform it is. a good thing which is very very risky for the whole region even in israel to syria's archenemy some would rather assad stayed in power but we also bring a very very real israel a favor of course this is not understood this work and we believe without a good deal of appearance. control and a very go. the pressure on assad continues to mount tuki which once supported his

government says it plans to suspend joined oil exploration and is considering stopping electricity supplies to syria just the latest in a long list of sanctions imposed on the country because they may be a way for the power of western countries to exert some sort of pressure over syrian government but really the people are the ones who suffer by not being able to have medicines by not being able to have certain technology is there may be required to save lives when human rights groups the syrian observatory once both a buffer zone and a libyan style no fly zone but western leaders have realized that unlike in libya they cannot push for a no fly zone at the u.n. security council this time around because of russia as well to veto it and while the arab league has stopped short of calling for syrian president bashar less. departure critics say this stance is nothing short of hypocrisy they have no democracy or at least they don't have some of them they don't have a constitution. and.

develop their democracy their. ironic thing. what's more assad is shown he's willing to conduct reforms his government announced the release of one thousand prisoners after previously agreeing to admit five hundred arab league appointed observers this is you know a sign that is is still being he still concerned about what his neighbors think and he still. under some sort of willingness to negotiate but it's not clear the arab league has the patience to listen and neither do we still leaders who decided a long time ago assad needs to go and with the option to do it through the united nations the arab league is the next best option policy r.t. tel aviv well the international project of solving serious conflict has been flawed from the start according to constantine of course the chaff of the russian state duma is from the first committee. the fact that the situation is

escalating the violence is escalating is a reflection of the wrong approach taken by certain states a unilateral approach the keep saying keep sending messages to the people of syria that you people see you are right it is of syria are wrong and this is their own the proof because they're tired of messages. introduces an illusion that the people of syria can get. freedom democracy was freer by using violence against the ruling authorities and not by negotiating not by maintaining the political process it's not just about. throwing stones against policemen or. guards this is about using heavy

weapons and this is a real war germany britain and france are pressing for a u.n. resolution condemning serious human rights violations while opposition and eventually play a game of rising death toll some experts say the uprising is rooted outside the country. we know that in most countries especially in the middle east there are special forces operating behind the lines cia mossad m i five you name it and they can they can create a dialogue crowd if you want to put it that way they put arms across the border to give to the opposition or breakaway groups and they in turn then first of all look at the arab spring you get people take to the streets in mass why are they out on the street is because they're frustrated with their government in the price hike of commodities food and petrol and loss of employment loss of housing executor so they're pretty mad it's at least vulnerable moment when these special forces and

secret service operatives intermingle with the crowd and in some cases become the snipers on the rooftop and say take out selective innocent victims the people in the crowd then believe that their government is carrying out this action and it becomes a rebellion. well as more u.s. moves to keep hold its global influence still ahead washington set to counter china's presence in the pacific barack obama says here around partner u.s. activities in australia describing it as a top priority for washington. now despite the e.u. leadership's united resolve to halt the spread of europe's debt crisis the outlook fails to impress investors in the second stable economy the netherlands is beginning to feel the first hundred specks of contagion. reports apathy amongst taxpayers is quickly giving way to animosity. the worst day years for the euro

that's how one banker called news that the netherlands considered the second strongest economy in the single currency the scene it's boring course braze but the markets to new highs the dutch prime minister was forced to react on concerns that their problem spiralling out of control. said he'd like to be able to push countries out of the euro to put out the fire as he called it is raising fears the country will be forced to leave the euro to stop this crisis spreading. as a first step a majority of dutch people finds a new poll want to stop the bailouts of greece which many see as the holts of the problems i love greece i every year i go to greece this is a little bit i did i think cost cutting a lot of money. millions off of. euros but until this moment did they don't do anything about it today should help us you

really know because if we have the same problems going on a problem this is the europe doctor while many of today's euro skeptics were singing its praises in the ninety's top economist or your club or wrote an open letter to e.u. leaders warning the single currency would destroy europe and. deep down he says those leaders do it with the euro they brought in sort of the horse of throat the trojan horse that is really going to own the european project that's the big danger and. its causes for conflicts for shiri is disagreements. for economic instability taxpayers have paid a price they get very upset about it and he noted that former politicians were aware of this problem but they have pushed this through in an idea of whether this is a great idea one euro one europe it's one euro one europe canales books is this because

the dutch just don't feel solicit errancy with the other members is now here for the first i would have to be interested in how did we pay their taxes i don't want to know how did we paid exactly what the pension age of the front fringes no degrees no france has a place in the euro a new nor the euro only for prudent states but a top thought surely party official last week experts think just three countries actually deserve to stay in only germany the netherlands and belgium share the same currency without having economic costs the neverland's currently pays more per person into e.u. cultures than anyone else with growing numbers knows they need to go in with this so the neighbors and you push you r.t. in the hague. italy's new government led by a veteran of you politics via monte has now taken the reins of the debt stricken

nation reaction from investors has been lukewarm at best i think given by a growing fear that the euro crisis has already gone too far to be contained and the feeling among many creditors is that the single currency bloc is now headed for recession slipping in recent and even the strongest euro zone nations are bordering on stagnation slowdown has been attributed to the e.u.'s austerity strategy of savage cuts and tax hikes which are suppressed growth one thing is that there are too many opposing interests in brussels printing a credible solution being adopted. by the economies of the euro zone are failing their growth is non-existent in many cases big economies are going backwards they're in a debt spiral and their lack of economic growth is not helping at the core of their problems is the euro and problems caused by the single currency and there's serious economic difficulties which are just not being cured while these countries were

mainly within the e.u. single currency the euro the the answer to their problems really is to cut loose the countries that are struggling economically because of the euro bonds being one of them especially but the main focus is of course italy and greece and then those countries can start to grow again and then we can have economic growth back in europe we can have hope for you at citizens and jobs can be created and the debt can then be dealt with the european union with so many different vested interests isn't acting nearly as fast enough and the solutions that they're coming up with aren't actually in the interests of their citizens because the institutions of the you aren't accountable to the citizens of those countries. coming up in the program next cars are and stacy herbert way up china's zero tolerance approach to financial fraud was improvised but the recent death penalty for a family accused of cheating investors of a billion dollars it's just one of the themes of the microscope and today's kinds of reports that's coming your way of some thirty games you see but it's pretty

pretty. chinese fund manager sentenced to death after cheating investors out of one billion u.s. dollars two brothers and their father were sentenced to death for cheating fifteen thousand investors out of over one point one billion dollars in east china's jang province i think it's a good deterrent i think that you need a deterrent and if the deterrent execution then i think the chinese are on the something that's why people are putting their money into chinese banks taking them out of the u.s. banks there's no deterrent for fraud in american banks and they're both local j.p. morgan is a great example so that's why people are moving their money out of u.s. banks into chinese banks because the chinese are willing to execute fraudsters that's a good sign. well

look. it's technology innovation all the list of elements from around russia we've got the future covered. twenty years ago the largest country in the disintegrated. one hundred. gallon germany. where did it take.

the u.s. wants to expand its military presence in australia by flying it two and a half thousand troops have an extreme yes but bans were announced as graca problem visited the country on thursday and many analysts claim that some routes are counterbalance china's growing influence in the pacific to the o.t.s. from the start of the war coalition sense a strain it has nothing to gain from a us military presence. think the criterion is growing. more and more i think. i mean we've already got. great interest in. having the graduation. bringing us. back to the. tune in general it's an escalation of military the military build up. i mean that's

some kind of new year rally and difficult to see what could be the trigger for theirs but. some kind of solution or at least maybe some for announcements by a european central bank that it's ready to move and she actually more actually can . start this rally. the growth rate of russia's industrial output is slowing increase three point six percent year on year in october and that's the lowest rate in about a year food production accounted for most of the growth thanks mainly to increasing consumption concerns over the devaluation of the rouble analysts warn that industrial output is not likely to accelerate given the current world economic concert. asian investors are buying into russia's buy called region hong kong based bank you raise your capital partners has agreed to invest one hundred million
