an. instant. at least eleven people have been killed in egypt on sunday night he received forces moving against britain and cairo's tahrir square but demonstrates a new military rule thousands are still remaining on the square overnight just a week before the parliamentary elections the son of the overthrow of hosni mubarak . the stories of trade this week started over the syrian government down there that night said by the arab league to end the violence of suppliers but president bush signed it defines in the face of growing costs are. also two months about and he called for russia to know barack problems for thousands from doctors
9:01 pm
all over the u.s. because the reds are having heard the. greeks and italians and french about the unlikely to be this i mean he is the trouble takes on losing sovereignty because a project in a mixed marriage is dictated by thoughts of. hello and welcome to our g.'s weekly review and you know our top story international pressure mounts on syria where insurgents have launched an attack on the headquarters of the country's ruling party the so-called free syrian army composed of an army desert as have claimed responsibility for the strike in which no one was hurt as it wanted stores around the country are the arab league's record of sanctions against the markets after the headline that's the deadline rather than the government and finally its ties with syrian president bashar al assad has pledged to international pressure off his tests are see that. the pressure is
9:02 pm
certainly increasing the noose tightening around syria president bashar al assad seems to be standing firmly on his ground so i keep in his position saying that his government as well as himself won't back down and. spite all of the increasing pressure now of course a statement comes on the back of the end of that three day old tomato given by the arab league for his government to end the bloodshed in the country and that is in addition to to its suspension having been suspended from the arab league and the very latest is that the greek had rejected the proposals of syria on amendments to the peace process as well as allowing international observers into the country so essentially there's an impasse at the moment and the pressure is also coming from from the ground from the opposition which is increasingly armed libya free syria army made up of the factors have claimed responsibility for attacks on government buildings and ask this and the head of that f.s.a. had also called on countries to send his forces weapons so again that this concerns
9:03 pm
russia because if. mr cicare government had said that if pressure is to be piled on syria it should not only be just directed to the government but also to one opposition that is increasingly armed. we suggested you know which. countries can see peaceful outcome in syria not only from the syrian authorities but also from the opposition because. the ongoing attacks on government buildings in syria look like. this of course tough words have already come from the outside since the beginning of this crisis eight months ago it's only escalating happened moments of how it's not just worse right now it seems that the pressure on syria is becoming increasingly organized this role there have been talks of the contact before to discuss the crisis in syria at the attribute of king abdullah have asked the u.k. we needed spearhead this campaign of having seen the quote success of be a good intervention now we know that if any resolution is several units the u.n. security council is going to be divided russia and china have already used their
9:04 pm
vetoes in the past and so now there are talk that any resolution would be passed through the human rights committee of the general assembly where there are no vetoes and correspondence eric margolis things are currently witnessing a build up to outside intervention. it certainly looks like the beginning of a no that's our intervention and there's no doubt that civil war has begun or it's very minor and it's repressed a little sissy is sort of performing low action followed by the western powers in syria that was so unveiled in libya and washington early is wanted for one time to overthrow the assad regime because it's a key ally of iran and a key supporter of hezbollah in lebanon not. the washington savard overthrew along with the saudis and israel it's over there are rising as washington to that are saying wait a minute if you go to throw the regime what's going to take its place and got held
9:05 pm
off intervention on some now but now we're such an eagerness to get ready iran vs syria the question is we i think surrounds rinse. if you're an soldiers and police have launched a major crackdown on protesters in tahrir square in cairo at least eleven people have been killed after turns of thousands began protesting its lack of reforms ahead of parliamentary elections in just over a week the first vote after the overthrow of hosni mubarak and we're now joined live by our correspondent horace there who's of the egyptian capital for us i know that paula so what's the reason people are protesting on the streets a week before parliamentary elections when they have a chance to express their views through the ballot box a very shortly. well the egyptian revolution has reached a dangerous phase of confrontation that has been one of eleven this week. just yesterday and eleven people killed thousands of people have been injured it was a particularly violent scene as security forces and police clash with demonstrators
9:06 pm
in tahrir square now they used to tear gas people and they forcibly removed them from the square but within an hour those people had returned and and driving past in just a short time ago now early monday morning still there and they have bulb it in not going to go anywhere until the military government use and as an example the fact that the head of the defense forces has not changed since he took their hose back in february after the asking of those in the bye week so they're saying that this government. is much the same as was before and the whole incident throws into gart what will happen in these parliamentary elections that are just around the corner with protesters same of example imagine it will be three and zero and we were really hearing from several political parties as well as individual candidates that they would be suspending their electoral campaigns because of concerns of what will happen in these elections and whether in fact it will be transparent. but it seems that the influence of the muslim brotherhood an egyptian
9:07 pm
is on the rise so what does this mean for the whole country well certainly it wasn't brotherhood as one of the strongest voices it has mobilized. jaime's demonstrations and this does bring concerns as it is now mr extremists will come to the fore here in egypt that you will see more of an islamic representation in parliament now it wasn't so long ago that within countries are very optimistic that they would be a real change in egyptian society that we now see no same very tragic she's starting to cut some kind of deals with the powers that are coming to the fore and expressing real concern and it will be this is not just extremism an expression here in egypt what was a revolution back in february has very soon turned into a situation where we've seen a cheery and by lives we've seen increasing clashes and we've seen the demands of the ordinary keep on the streets continue not to be answered. pullets labor force
9:08 pm
in their life in cairo paula many thanks indeed under different political activist ahmed sellout doesn't expect a swift reaction from the west blames these countries for supplying the regime with the means of oppression by i'm not expecting a quick reaction from the west but we can see that all the ammunition used against us is these are american or israeli or actually italian because of it's the tear gas canisters or the bullets that were used. in that they have received is two thousand eleven course consumer of the revolution and they are used for pristine collusions or they are used to kill this revolution and empower them so i don't know what can be the excuse of actually giving. sources for security risk for munitions that's why we have cells of injured we don't care about the injured these just stormed the hospital while of all these teargas and was everything in that at them to read to exist we are. at the world probably had seen on television how they
9:09 pm
were sitting on fire. kills motorbikes and shots fired like they did last night to mordor to charge us in the revolution that we are the ones doing the subtle touch. the fate of colonel gadhafi son saif al islam hangs in the balance of leaving arthur it is one thing to try him on charges of crimes against really good people that carry the death penalty the national transitional council says he'll get a fair trial and won't hand him over to the international criminal court or the hague the sound of the former leader was along with to aid while attempting to flee across the border to need care and a lot of video released in which to live on his nonsense is a degree stems from a nato air strike on months ago down south actually the biggest barriers and also in buenos aires are not that i think you know i think they are. now. saved. as a terrible choice between being shot or being hanged because if he is judged and
9:10 pm
tried in libya he might end up very much you know saddam hussein like trial where he will end up being or he will end the deal one way or the other and if he is extra. it will not be a fair trial when we are of all the other we will say i was the dark you son as has been the constant throughout history every time somebody survives the uncomparable that relations we've also seen and this is all this horrible documents how more margaret buffy only in the last few years has shocked the hands of tony blair barack obama no doubt a lot of things were negotiated a lot of very uncomfortable that the regime's own information could be given by islam but that field. so great a way to save others lump example you were asking your opinion on our web site r.t. dot com so far the majority of things will get the death penalty in india but believe will be killed by vigilantes before there's any chance of sending him for the hague fifteen percent are skeptical about his capture believing it would be
9:11 pm
still a notch on the minority of training will be tried at the international so please welcome to our to the home front. but beyond our hundreds of arrests accusations of police brutality and dozens of injuries this is how the occupy movement in the us it's two month anniversary this week officers in riot gear pulls out counts and broke out mostly peaceful demos against the distribution of wealth to be part of the thing the activists took to the subway and try to knock off the stock which has been moving up despite the police are dispersed to the families of the university of california a group of students staging a sit down protest pepper sprayed in the face. incident an officer was filmed in iraq war veteran so god has suffered a ruptured spleen also seem to know that there's often growing up like novels the congo seems to be hardening. in the financial capital of the

9:13 pm
and so they go in with the. war. tell. them that. 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
9:14 pm
destroying and displacing the heart of this democratic movement i can't get idea to the idea that we are then i get i percent of americans that you know we need to resist the points of financial institutions the corporations have against those and i think you are being spread around the country what began as an occupation in a park has grown into a national movement fighting for principles the momentum has shifted much more to some large existing institutional actors like labor unions and well known community organizations that are picking up their basic message and i think that that message has got such resonance right now that people are going to turn out on the streets around these issues whether or not there's an encampment. or the largest the loudest turnout so far came thursday as ws turned two months old a day marked by the attempt to shut down the new york stock exchange occupations in parks and subways and heavy handed tactics by the end mikey d.
9:15 pm
a protest that began peacefully turned to look more like urban warfare hundreds were arrested and by the evening more than thirty thousand activists students and labor unions show their strength in numbers along the brooklyn bridge from new york to l.a. and just about every city in between the occupy movement has flooded the streets uniting thousands of strangers bound by common hardship and for sure two months in there is no denying this grassroots campaign has become a branch of the big apple and the social marker in america. r.t. new york. and joshua holland and anderson senior writer at the online magazine also that there are signs that the movement is evolving from a protest movement based on the many many people that i've interviewed but were part of that i would say that there is an extremely strong sense of. you know we
9:16 pm
almost missed the point when we call it a protest a lot of the people who i've interviewed see themselves as part of the nonviolent revolution and to really deeply entrenched status quo so you know revolutionary whether we like them or not are people who are pretty dedicated to their cause i don't see this going away anytime soon. and that is korean the u.s. is constantly following developments surrounding the occupy movement our listener katherine is currently open for us and has posted on her twitter stream but hundreds of people have been gathering in the city despite the police warning that has also tweeted that protesters have taken their plans to the home of mayor michael bloomberg cool and intend to place the place of ours that the one thing this is these are things that that. set to become a reality a year grazing union is to be established by twenty fifth russia along with some of its post soviet partners are planning
9:17 pm
a common economic space where the power to resist the global financial crisis is going up story three nations twenty million square kilometers of the land one giant idea. is that we won't repeat the mistakes of the european union in our integration conscious or what we're doing when just stern who we are integrating with there are three countries sharing a common history and today we are forming a common economy eurasian union will be based on the already existing customs union between the three nations which are among the largest economies in the area with three more in just six months russia will manage to increase their total trade journal or well over forty percent. it's plans there by twenty fifteen the union will not only have one war in an economic zone but me switch to one currency as well do you stand on or aspiring to join ukraine is sitting i would team which will
9:18 pm
be becoming a member of. this sort of co-operation means more jobs bigger salaries and the chance to boost reforms and modernize our country that's why most ukrainian support the idea they want stability for some groups have dismissed the union as an attempt to restore the u.s.s.r. but experts say the difference is clear. the feel of the u.s.s.r. was built on ideology while the eurasian union will be based strictly on the economy and pragmatism. experts see there even some latin american nations like cuba and venezuela me join the so-called e.u. two in the future while new zealand has already shown interest in joining as a large producer of meat with no cost them charges the benefits of being a member are simply too attractive to ignore surely it's way too early to talk about any massive economic and industrial bridge which crotch all the way from europe into the pacific ocean so far only three states have thrown their hats in

but if the current momentum is anything to go by and more are certain to follow it got us going off car to moscow. spain has moved to the right after a general election really conservative people's party ousting a very socialist in a landslide when the center right group clear of well majority in parliament with supporters already celebrating victory in madrid the conservatives hundred eighty six seats out of a total of three hundred fifty ahead of the socialist. but for instance the. trouble with such an unemployment as the next in line to succumb to the crisis. she's leaving are going to freeze. the preliminary polls are showing that the popular party does seem to be the winner in this particular election of course that was predicted by a lot of experts earlier because of course the socialist party has been largely blamed for the current economic crisis which finds itself mired in at the moment
9:20 pm
whatever will be the winner in this election will have to deal with the same old problems and you have to understand spain is one of the highest and for rates of these high eurozone has more than five million unemployed people there was a census conducted here in september which established that about four thousand people just over four thousand people have been losing their jobs daily in the country also the country has the highest unemployment rate among the youth in the entire eurozone that is almost fifty percent around forty percent or so so almost every other person who is between the ages of eighteen and thirty five does not have a job and they have this sort of a just a sad joke going around the country and that is that it's a little very boys in spain have probably the highest education in all of the euro zone because they all have master's degrees and this is something that the people's party will have to deal with a lot of the analysts are saying that they will have to take some sort of cuts i think that the education or health care or pensions or probably all of those areas will again under have to undergo through a very strict
9:21 pm
a series of measures and of course that will not leave a lot of people happy. underneath and agrees the new elected governments are already out of work thousands of people offered a less than friendly welcome to the new prime ministers who have just got their feet under their desks mario monti and lucas papademos are committed to extremely unpopular debt solutions including budget got sometimes hikes markets are far from convinced with debt interest rates across the region catastrophic levels. and the member as always north you know what's right and she got home and here's a quick look at what's in store talking down the russian spacecraft so use with three members onboard has successfully joined the ais that's right there will be doing in the final frontier as well so you don't harm. and once in a lifetime chance to blame something truly divine he's a believe in stretch for more than three kilometers in moscow as one of the most rabid orthodox premix goes on display at russia's main for seadrill.

this week saw the un atomic war struck challenging iran to prove its nuclear activities have no military pretensions there was no suggestion for new sanctions against tehran in the i.a.e.a. report but washington said it's preparing penalties that could be introduced as early as monday and in a separate move the un general assembly house passed a resolution condemning terrorism plot to kill the saudi and avoid the u.s. claims iran has dismissed as operators all this image talks washington could stop holding by israel's alleged start time the islamic republic does archies and he said now explains the situation with iran is beginning to resemble the lead up to the iraq war. iran has long been a hot topic but iran. a way to greater threat that america in the world faces had faced was a nuclear iran but it's heated up since last week's report from the un's nuclear watchdog sparking fears iran was pursuing atomic weapons the i.a.e.a.
9:23 pm
says iran developed a high explosives initiation system a detonator with the help of a foreign expert force not current expert is called the mystery scientists and russian by some western media even though the i.a.e.a. report doesn't name him and he's not russian but ukrainian it here's how former weapons inspector david albright talked suffer the scientists nuclear credentials on c.n.n. and he showed him how to build of a thin hemispherical shell with holes in it and they were the detonation happens and you simultaneously set off explosive pellets in a series of holes in that are going to show and those explosive pellet pellets ignite the high explosive underneath and in a very spiritual way it compresses the core and then you get a nuclear explosion this is then he is a scientist but not a nuclear specialist those who actually know danity and couldn't say this. because
9:24 pm
he worked in a nuclear facility but not every person who does is the nucleus specialist he's actually trained to construct the airplanes and it's not the i.a.e.a. that is questioning him now but journalists audience nevertheless albright accuses the newly uncovered who specialized in nano diamonds in iran of working with the iranians to help them miniaturize their require warhead so they can put it on top of one of their missiles so it can be fired her own right has a history of pointing fingers just before iraq was invaded he said this in two thousand and two. in. terms of the chemical and biological weapons iraq has those now how many how could they deliver them i mean these are big questions then backtrack to the l.a. times once known job u.n. d's were discovered in iraq. if there are no weapons of mass destruction i'll be mad as hell i certainly accepted the administration's claims of chemical and
9:25 pm
biological weapons i should they were telling the truth and some u.s. politicians think non-truths could be repeating the iran i'm afraid what's going on right now is similar to the war propaganda that went on against iraq and you know they didn't have the weapons of mass destruction but there were enough official reports implying otherwise in terms of the report there is limited information a lot of the reason it's limited is because it's most likely that iran does not it is you know it is the case in iran does not have a nuclear weapons program there's no magic days of who could be called critics say the public especially in the us are about to be inundated with another flood of so-called expert analysis beware of a dangerous mideast country that's presumably hiding secret nuclear weapons and may require a military strike the difference this time it's iran not iraq and he's now artsy
