2:07 am
another set of mobilization and i think that that's very important but the key here thing is not that because they're in one place and because they have been dispersed that this movement is over that it was only about a sort of occupation but this movement has a real interest in real inner should behind it there are particular messages that have to be the lippert and as long as those messages and that action has not cost changed the longer that this movement will continue. and they say this our success or failure. i'm hopeful that they'll continue with their efforts and they will give two months approach doesn't do any of. the parkers mind set up. we head out onto the streets of new york to find out whether the occupied it is latin to be the footprints on the u.s. history. italy's new prime minister mario monti has unveiled his plan for sweeping

parties. for artists everywhere the music they hope to write plays on is the only reminder of the social changes promised by the protests. music reflects people's grievances and the status quo in the country. but for now those grievances are far from resolved the song made syrian singer. a national hero with his call for syrian president bashar al assad to step down and he paid the ultimate price for his protests. and was found with his throat slit down a river his adam's apple a vocal cord had been removed a clear message to those who dared to speak out and those who enthusiastically chanted after him understood the meaning all too well we are praising the. truth. i think it would have been the ago. what will happen in syria but what will

happen in syria remains uncertain and in libya the story continues to unfold with no clear picture yet of how the story will end you tube is awash with protest songs that have sprung up across the arab world the. most like. wrote this. for expression. if you pop i think. history point people just the words. you have one. you express yourself. so. this song comes from the heart beat of it all tunis with the arab spring began but despite the talking of its president the country remains consumed by social and economic problems i don't think the protesters came get achieved with
2:17 am
impossible it's too difficult. and so while the music plays on the hopes are fading that the revolutions would bring real change and the only harmony to be found is confined to the airwaves policy r.t. tel aviv. where u.k. has officially started talks of the syrian opposition as pressure builds against the regime of president bashar assad earlier britain was reportedly approached by jordan to spearhead a campaign against assad pressured by the arab league damascus has agreed to a russian observers to enter the country to help end the bloodshed the violence shows no sign of abating for at least twelve civilians were killed and security forces fired on protesters in front of prayers france has already said it's too late for the regime to try and save itself by turning a. war correspondent eric margolis says it's all part of the build up to outside intervention. it certainly looks like the beginning of the. military intervention
2:18 am
i'm surprised that turkey is the side of two. courses trying to ration and all its neighbors the jordan in the sense of sticking its neck out to washington who is one in the room time. regime because it's a key ally of iran and a key supporter of hezbollah in lebanon not. washington. to overthrow along with the saudis and israel is however there are wise heads in washington jill that are saying wait a minute if you're going to throw the regime what's going to take its place and then hell wolf intervention on some now you know we're such eagerness to get any iran via syria that caution has been i think strong. also ahead for you in the program forced from their native land decades of insurgency it is to speak of

kashmir all suffering seems as native pundits say they now face discrimination based on the forty. the u.n. nuclear watchdog has passed a resolution calling on iran to clear up outstanding questions about its atomic programs rational ones that should be used to intensify dialogue not inflame tensions between the i and to run a lot of us from washington said stuart deterring israel for a long planned attack on iran and iran's nuclear pursuits on overpriced real twenty twelve range to mr against intervention says it would be futile for iran to develop a nuclear weapon risk free to talk to other nuclear states iran has stated time and again that it doesn't want to produce a nuclear bomb a nuclear weapon president ahmadinejad said just recently that it just would be absurd for iran to produce one or two bombs in the face of how zones of bombs which
2:20 am
exist in the western countries and also regarding. the issue of israeli nuclear about this which is israel remains the sole entity in the region which. nuclear weapons more than two hundred of them and that is preventing the whole region the middle east region from becoming. mass destruction free zone. but i think there's something on their head to r.t. dot com where you can find all the stories we're covering it's a taste of what else is way too few there right now a rocket that can kill you long before you hear it washington tests a missile six times faster than the speed of sound that could potentially reach any target on the planet and you know. it's also a man in his prime renowned for his judo skills russia's premier that pretty close the world he's very slick on the ice to.

on friday russia better rusin kazakhstan signed an agreement on deep integration between the countries paving the way to creating a united economic body in an exclusive interview to r.t.m. the voice of russia radio station blocks likely bursts into question explained how they get in this game to avoid a financial you is currently except for version is coming at twelve thirty g.m.t. but here's the good of what you can expect. in terms of scale of integration european union is perhaps the only alliance and compared to what is emerging which we not treat countries to the current situation pretty eurozone this fleecing internal economic problems has helped us to identify proper ways to integrate important. for national monitoring policies of crisis is on the mind one simple
2:22 am
thing it goes too far as creating a single currency union we must exercise tight control of the budget monetary and tax policies at national level let's. go back to the u.s. now where the occupy campaign is a struggle against authorities attempts to break down the move it there are half a list better known as the rest it takes to the streets of the big apple to find out what legacy it's likely to leave. has the wall street movement achieved its goal of creating a shift in the system or is it slowly becoming a blip that history probably won't remember this week let's talk about that i think they've brought some attention to the issues that nobody really wants to talk about so. if it becomes part of the conversation i think they've accomplished something
2:23 am
but there's still a lot of work to do i'm hopeful that they'll continue with their efforts and they will give up maybe people think i won't make a big difference so i think we'll think about it for a while and then go back to the ball. put the tent up but i think that's one of the problems no one really knows what their vision is other than because people a lot of problems do you think if they had a leader that would help them define what their movement and i think if they were that organized they pry of jobs and wouldn't be swinging around wall street i'll be honest with you i don't know what the message is so clearly they haven't communicated bad well not at all so how are they going to get out of history's anything. i don't think that we made in history down the road that it's going to be there it's not significant they should feel like a big map again it always just everybody something they feel passionate about significant others it's not every revolution starts with someone just to say i don't care what happens to me i'm going to make a change and then hopefully other people i don't do that so what's the next step
2:24 am
how do they add. i don't know i guess you get the middle class that's kind of comfortable that doesn't see that is a real problem because they're comfortable. uncomfortable if they're going to go out what if that's now and. i hope. i'll feel better about it because the worse conditions they endure as we go along i think the more i'll feel supporting over that they need to go through a little bit more and then history will have a chance at remembering them two months doesn't do it but you got to stick it out whether or not you think the acapulco while street movement has achieved its goals the bottom line is it will be interesting to see if the protesting continues when it's no right. now at some other news making headlines around the well the cell. phone as well impressed in the point that national guard troops to help these violent crime is
