york trying to figure out what the legacy is likely to be of the movement. has the occupy wall street movement achieved its goal of creating a shift in the system or is it slowly becoming a blip but 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 here i think they've accomplished something but there's still a lot of work to do i'm hopeful that they'll continue with their efforts and they will get maybe if we get people thinking i won't make a big difference so i think we'll think about it for a while and then go back to the all. the bikers minds put a tent up but i think that's one of the problems no one really knows what the reason is other than because people 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

10:22 am
a little bit more and then has free will have a chance that i don't remember them two months protest doesn't do it but you got to stick it out whether or not you think the occupy wall street movement has achieved its goals the bottom line is it will be interesting to see if the protesting continues when the snow arrives. take a look now at some other stories making headlines across the globe the afghan for dana will assemble he has backed calls from the country's president hamid karzai for a long term security pact with the u.s. but the deal would come with conditions including an end and i was raised on afghan civilian homes by foreign troops it's a major cause of friction between washington and cowboy and a strategic agreement aimed at keeping foreign military forces in afghanistan past twenty fourteen and when i said the number of afghan civilians killed in the first half of the year rose fifteen percent soaring to more than one thousand casualties . a fifty two car pileup on
