the agency reporting that russia's interfax news agency we're hearing at least seven people were taken hostage in the middle school they cannot talk to these correspond with the caucasus polaski dennys hi there and what more do we know this is only what he broke in the last ten fifteen minutes or so we have suddenly not been confirmed yet we have heard reports that one person has been killed can you bring us up to date with what you know so from what we know also for additional sefl sources have arrived on the scene in the capital kabul you know milk right here after conflicting reports coming to us are the coming in the seventies about the possible hostage situation and one of the all six schools this information had to be confirmed and the same from one of russia's new agency you suggesting that sauce seven people none of them the work children were playing volleyball in the school gym as attackers answered the building they started shooting.
2:19 pm
we know that at least one person has been killed as a result of the attacks the attackers. the scene immediately after the. sound we know according to sources. some of the noble car full sources the attackers were looking for. members of war enforcement agencies this is said he says who said just just a very of you know preparing a picture of mel figures the capital of the republican company the ball carrier in the caucasus and it's no stranger to violent incidents nothing of this is connected with his hands in the past we don't know much about it at all the moment but it is . a city that's in a lot of trouble in the past isn't it in the several sacks look very much similar to what happened today happens i'm not all six before and such in the bamber west year several militants lucille's or. we so phrase and again.
2:20 pm
serious similar operations were carried a. month before the knocks over last year. usually these are small attacks. and the little sense of sorry thing primarily awards enforcement agents. the largest attack. in recent years happened since two thousand and six several dozen militants sacked the city of knowledge six found they also targets a police with law enforcement agents what do we know about these people the very carried out the attacks in the past can you paint a picture of who they are for our audience. well we know. mostly these were. they were. they were hunting police officers who were trying to get to the
2:21 pm
arsenals stations in all six i was there in two thousand and six and i saw always. myself. we know that. most of these attackers were killed at the time or. they were going. on trial they were sent on trial so now we have to see what's going to happen and who were people behind this attack i'm sure we'll hear a lot about the coming hours absolutely flossy centers much for now so just bring it today really on what we know you're seeing on your map there where nelson is in the republic about in a book aria where one person's been killed tonight for school siege there least seven people were taken hostage but the only tiny bit of good news coming out of hearing no children involved there but since we get more details we'll of course bring you up to date on our correspondents across that as well. as the second day
2:22 pm
of business in dab or says the world financial decision makers and top brass politicians make new plans to keep the global crisis at bay well they are making some profit along the way to know that when i was on the table the world economic forum in switzerland has fallen from the arab uprisings and try to find ways to bring that life back into struggling here is a wrapping it all up these are listeners in davus. today we heard from david cameron u.k. prime minister who had a apply different message than what we heard from angela merkel yesterday when she opened up davos so david cameron came out and said that number of things that he believes the euro zone needs he said they need a quick speedy resolution agreed debt issuance is and fiscal transfers and order to deal with imbalances so sounds to me like he's calling for some kind of euro bond said that there needs to be a firewall big enough and said you know really right now the euro zone has none of these things now this is in contrast to angela merkel yesterday who said we're not going to pledge more bailout money even though maybe the investment community wants
2:23 pm
it we're promising you that we believe this fiscal integration will solve the problem along with structural reforms geared towards things like creating jobs so different message from u.k. prime minister today but a couple things i thought were really interesting so he was asked about what all this means for the future of free market capitalism which is a debate going on here at davos and the emergence and rise of state capitalism and david cameron continue to tout free market capitalism and the european model as the best for freedom and democracy but one thing that came to mind is what we've seen with the technocrats installed that are now running the governments of italy and greece and pushing through these reforms that were very much dictated or influenced by germany and what germany wanted today we see the focus shift to the arab spring which obviously is a political geopolitical issue but was very much has economic ramifications as we see reported davos investors questioning what is the prospect of the change in the
2:24 pm
arab spring nations and what the prospects for investment are we've seen economic impacts of the geo political changes we've seen yields in egypt for example surged bar and cost be very high there so i think people are looking for answers to that and we have a number of events today that are geared towards discussing that very issue with some prominent leaders from tunisia and egypt here at the forum this year we've seen the occupy movement gather such steam and. really of course they would be expected to be at davos at the world economic forum the irony is that as i was reading one analysis they were saying it sounds a little like klaus schwab the founder of the world economic forum is channeling occupy and his rhetoric about the problems of capitalism the irony of course is the occupy protesters and activists are part of the conversation here at the forum which is joy if you see the red tickle in a pall over the screen there those indicating this breaking news in the has been in this last half hour one person reportedly being killed during a school siege in russia's volatile north caucasus that information's been reported
2:25 pm
by russia's interfax news agency there are reports that seven hostages have been held at a middle school in the city of melchett in the republic of couple of there is on your map these reports still have not been confirmed three one news agency reporting at the moment soon as we know more we'll of course we're also hearing the attackers have now fled the scene is a bit more information come through a source in the region security services has told the news agency that there are no children at the school police the school surrounded additional anti terror and special forces units are being told are being deployed to that school that area since we know more we'll keep you updated of course these are not live pictures you're looking at there don't believe i'll just wait for a gallery to tell me i think these are just recent pictures this is archive pictures ok just want to confuse you there all right so that's what we know at the moment we'll of course bring you more as we get to know more or this culture with the business now.
2:26 pm
welcome to business r.t. will start with nancy exclusive from davos the head of russia's state funded high tech corporation tells us he's looking for new inverses and as old as you buy says he's in the alps to meet a leading bankers the help turn into an operation that's more like a public company. well this year we will sell ten percent shares of course at the private placement that's very very sensitive point for our way from the state corporation into the business like a corporation in this table do was consulted so from my middle of the insurance we could be in this way here was the middle of the president and we could be in the we are discussing this tactic steps into the strategy how to increase the approach of
2:27 pm
holder's participation. the major way should be on the cheap to show investors and i think that we need what we need to here is a board will potations russian investors in. the famous four in the investor who are able to invest in high tech companies take a look at the markets this very quickly while i has now retreated some want to if we can say that from the gains that we've seen up just the forty two cents for light sweet and brant is up eighty three said that's obviously following the fed decision to remain rates low u.s. markets therefore correcting we'll look at them in just a second first of all the u.s. the u.s. dollar has almost had all of its losses versus the euro. pretty even right now as you can see there but the ruble managed to see some have to gains in the u.s.
2:28 pm
markets are now seeing the correction as i mentioned before the dow jones is down by just the last nasdaq point three percent pretty much the same situation. that actually know the europe there was a positive session if we can move over there this was all based on the gains in the banking sector footsie up one and a quarter percent the dax almost two percent and russia also saw a positive session with the r.t.s. gaining more than the my six because of a gain in the ruble was as you know the r.t.s. . it's dominated by the dollar dollar denominated assets myself by the ruble among the main game is on the my thanks where mining stocks as you can see the north nickel seven among the biggest gauges in financials were also strong with a good negating thirteen and a half percent in just one section. of the market seems to be very active. couple of days in terms of volume and terms of quotes. it's really positive for the banks although all the main russian banks and basically all of them are extremely
2:29 pm
active and growing it's also supported during the day by the news from there was from several of the species of european leaders there are of course some more positive guys ladies in case of fungal america. always some more cautious men like for example they would came around. anyway they seem to be closer and more on the same side in terms of their positions on the ways to solve the crisis than they have been the end of two thousand and eleven all right after a very short break kevin's back with the headlines you stay with. you're the.
2:30 pm
world with. its technology innovation all the developments around russia we've got the future covered. this is r.t. live from moscow just one story to tell you about this breaking news we're bringing you we're hearing that a person's been one person has been reportedly killed after a school siege in russia's volatile north caucasus that's been reported by russia's interfax news agency in the last hour also reports that seven hostages are being held at a middle school there in the city of nell chicken the republican cup of the noble caria some of these details start to be confirmed so you have one news agency reporting it at the moment but it's
2:31 pm
a reliable one the attackers have now fled the scene a source in the region security services told the agency that there are no children involved at the school police that we're hearing have surrounded the building and additional anti terror and special forces units are being deployed there just give you some background as well you saw it on the map these by the way are our cars you can see there are pictures don't confuse them with live ones we don't have those yet now is the capital of the republic of kabul deano. in the caucuses it's been as we just heard from our correspondent suffering from a number of violent instance in the past few months alone in november when the special operation. by security services several militants were killed then they were found to be planning a terror attack on the city also in october last year another atrocity was prevented when a bomb had been placed in a flower bed in one of the central squares of nell chick it was discovered by members of the public luckily it didn't go off but that was obviously planted in a busy area designed to cause as much damage and maim as many people you'd guess
2:32 pm
and think that's possible also in october as well police have killed several militants who were planning an attack in the republic's interior ministry it's of a rest of areas of just to bring you up to date briefly again as you can see on your screens there the main news story from us this half hour one person killed seven injured in a school siege in russia's volatile north caucuses in chick but we're hearing as far at least as we know so far no children are involved in that incident at that school. keep up to date with all our news of course twenty four seven at r.t. dot com it's now eleven thirty two moscow time programs continue next maxon states declare their support for a new kind of movement because report is on the. max
2:33 pm
keiser this is the kaiser report you know we have banks there but hollywood even more stacey max there's been a call to revolution kill hollywood this is a headline from the reformed broker dot com and josh brown says when the revolution begins and becomes apparent one doesn't sit on his porch and watch one gets his gun off the mantle and kisses the family goodbye on his way out to the field oh yeah other war is on the kill i want campaign that started you know we have the occupy wall street movement on top of the arab spring movement but this kill hollywood movement is really interesting because it sets the sting for a civil war in america yet domestically in california with think northern california silicon valley the tech community versus hollywood the old oligarchic neo feudal caste system but so reformed broker however josh brown is that talking in particular about why combinator this is
2:34 pm
a startup seed funder and they looked at this situation they saw sopa and they said hollywood appears to have peaked if it were an ordinary industry film camera say or typewriters it could look forward to a couple of decades of peaceful decline but this is not an ordinary industry the people who run it are so mean and so politically connected that they could do a lot of damage to civil liberties and the world economy on the way down it would therefore be a good thing if competitors hastened their demise so why combinator is a seed fund capital farm which is pretty thanks for capital farm it's an integral part in the capital formation that is nasdaq that is the huge growth that we've seen in online and when. two point zero now they've taken an adversarial position against hollywood because they recognize and as they say in that quote they're mean they're well capitalized and they cheat and there are ability to undermine the
2:35 pm
system and to destroy free speech and to destroy a lot of what makes the economy grow is such that they need not to be left alone to just with their away and die they need to be actively pursued and killed the industry of hollywood needs to be killed and you know he he says that they're going to get violent and nasty on their way down and we already see that we saw that with soap and he said this is for y. combinator says this indicates to them that hollywood is dying poor chris dodd is the next headline the former senator and now c.e.o. of the n.p.a. can't catch a break so he looked at the situation the defeat of sopa and he said it was just a p.r. thing and that he blames in particular the tech community he blames silicon valley he said you've got an opponent who has the capacity to reach millions of people with a click of a mouse and there's no fax checker. is afraid of him. but crist
2:36 pm
you know he's one of these extraordinarily corrupt american politicians who now runs in p.a.a. and what is the n.p.a. in motion picture association of america you often hear there may mention along with our i am the recording industry association of america and these two lobbying groups on behalf of hollywood and the extraordinarily narrow interests of the copyright cartel who is always for extension of copyright is put a muzzle on speech in america and on innovation in america to satisfy the whims of just a few oligarchs copyright cartel oligarchs in los angeles and as i mentioned it's a bit of a civil war because you've got the tech industry in northern california they've got the copyright laws in southern california and now these two are at loggerheads with each other and. we're siding with the technology of course the open source and the free speech the copyright cartel in hollywood it is an ugly must not believe position that's done incredible damage and i'm glad to see this five finally spill
2:37 pm
out into the open it's been in the shadows for a number of years now it's a mainstream fight the main event now i want to show you just how america operates on this monopoly system here they have a digital dictator chris dodd he's the former senator for connecticut before that he was a congressman i want to show you a picture of me in connecticut one nine hundred seventy five. that's the year that chris dodd first became a congressman noticed something i was a little tiny girl exactly like all those people in tahrir square who only grew up who only knew barak i have only ever known chris dodd and joe lieberman they were always our counters per cent are always our center they were always ruling us determining what connecticut could do and here he is he goes over to the n.p.a. and the whole internet space suddenly has become a genuine threat since mubarak was overthrown you mentioned mubarak and the mubarak regime toppled quickly because of the facebook revolution. move barack off guard
2:38 pm
obviously an entire region is still trying to figure out this whole thing a social media same thing with hollywood they have been quietly putting in for copyright term extensions for decades they've had their way for decades suddenly mobilization against sopa and people within a day within a week it was defeated in washington with lightning speed injustice and those and those laws those those all of darks and hollywood were taken down a peg similar to the way mubarak was taken down and then the fight is on other people realize that hollywood is the enemy of free speech when mubarak realized the danger to his monopoly he controlled the all industry essentially in egypt as his private fiefdom now compare this to the n.p.a. hollywood realizes that there is a genuine threat to their monopoly position and what do they do they go on to
2:39 pm
state television fox news and threaten. the soldiers if they don't do enough violence on their behalf m.p. a openly threatens to pull funding from politicians who oppose them so chris dodd the head of the motion picture association of america went on to fox news and he said those who count on quote hollywood for support need to understand that this industry is watching very carefully who's going to stand up for them when their job is that steak don't ask me to write a check for you when you think your job is that risk and then don't pay any attention to me when my job is that steak it's a remarkable admission that these politicians are for sale and he's saying that unless you continue this monopoly position we're not going to be supporting you in washington anymore and that's really a remarkable admission and it shows you the stakes involved and it shows you why the internet community is mobilized now to take hollywood down and that's why y.
2:40 pm
combinator a seed capital firm has written an open letter saying we want to kill hollywood i mean this is an amazing admission by an integral part of the capital model in the united states that they're saying they want to kill hollywood and of course there are business models in the wings my own power my film dot com which is geared toward doing exactly that the other important thing to know here is here he is going on to fox news state television and he's threatening politicians to give him more funding to bail him out who is the man who actually wrote the legislation for sopa that was lamar smith a so-called tea party member he's demanding that the f.b.i. operate as their collection agency i imagine here's an industry the motion picture association which their product hollywood films very few of them have ever made a profit probably less than
2:41 pm
a dozen in the last thirty years have ever technically earned a profit now imagine the tea party is freaked out that barack obama bailed out g.m. . at least they made a profit in many years and they do make a profit when they sell a car hollywood doesn't actually make any profit they claim so why are we subsidized why would we get the f.b.i. out which they start making sure nobody buys toyotas in order to protect g.m. from their you know bad habits of building cars that nobody could afford to operate or yes the hollywood accounting as it's call is the original enron style accounting they book any incremental profits in the short term and then they amortize losses for infinity the executives pay themselves on this cookbook mentality and now you see it running rampant throughout the entire economy the banks on wall street for example they book all their short term profits they dump the losses into the public domain so this is now being carried back and forth then the insider trading between
2:42 pm
hollywood washington and wall street exchanging information then there's another lobbying group the creative coalition nice to be on the board that organization and now the people are beginning to realize that hollywood is the enemy we need to kill hollywood. and part of that is that they don't want ideas to flourish because this global cartel system that we see the oligarchies that controls everything they realized in the last year since mubarak was toppled that ideas are so much more powerful than even one of the most heavily controlled economies in the world so you see this also in the currency that has kept that alive is the dollar and you also see the same sort of response as sopa to the dollar currency wars iran banned from trading gold and silver borders reports that the e.u.'s agreed to freeze the assets of the iranian central bank and ban all trade in gold and other precious metals with the iranian central bank and other public bodies and around max so this is
2:43 pm
just supplying to the your paean union they also are not allowed to trade oil with iran so how do you think this is going to affect the euro the dollar and will it preclude china russia or other nations like india from kentucky operating no course on its financial suicide of course because it doesn't preclude china china wants gold iran's got goal they're going to do deals with china and china is preparing itself for this currency war for a post us dollar reserve world and also you've created markets you created the hollywood stock exchange is gold and silver are they fungible commodities of course i mean this is a joe's you how arrogant these policymakers in europe are and why they're going to lose this currency war it's very simple that's why gold is over going higher so of course i said it also applies to oil india joins asian dollar exclusion zone will transact with iran in rupees india in iran have agreed to settle some of their
2:44 pm
twelve billion dollar annual oil trade in rupees resorting to the restricted currency after more than a year of payment problems in the face of fresh tougher u.s. sanctions so zero hedge concludes that to summarize japan china russia india. around the countries which together account for the bulk of the world's productivity and combined are the biggest explorers and producers of energy and now they're all coming up with bilateral deals thus obama's policies are actually creating this situation the final death rattle of the u.s. dollar as a reserve currency and they hope that this will somehow stimulate their exports at the end of the day and save america and create jobs but what they don't understand is that all they're doing is that they are empowering every single other nation on earth who from to be able to escape the seniority that is the play of the dollar and to grow independent of the u.s. and to completely divorce themselves from the u.s.
2:45 pm
and it also is the exact same sort of moment why combinator is a seed capital fund for the internet space. china is the seed capital you could think of as for capitalism at this moment they're the only ones with cash reserves financing a lot of things so they must look at this in the same exact way that y. combinator look at sopa y. combinator look at sopa and salt the death rattles of an industry china has to look at this and see the same exact thing that they're running out of ideas if they're only ideas to shoot somebody it's certainly a good case to continue to keep accumulating goldens over states never thanks so much being on the kaiser report thank you max that go a much more coming your way so stay right there. in the. world for the. science technology innovation all the latest developments from
2:46 pm
2:47 pm
speak with author radio show host mike rupert of collapse that dot com mike welcome to the kaiser report max great to be back with you again all right mike rupert you're in california. tom to both hollywood and silicon valley what is your take on the sopa people debate how is it playing out in the local news there in california clearly in california my take is that the press and the people perceive that sopa and pipa are in a dire straits and i don't think there's much hope to resurrect these bills the opposition has been pretty uniform i just made a trip down only recently and met with a number of people in the movie industry and i did not see a lot of concern about it so i think there's another agenda being followed right well clearly it's an assault on hollywood there's a venture capital firm now coming out saying kill hollywood with new ventures that will undermine the hollywood copyright cartel it's an assault on freedom of speech and there's a bit of a civil war because the technology isn't.
