a new chapter for occupy wall street six months on the movement seeks to throw off its tenth welling image as activists look to change tack in their battle against greed and inequality. are you watching our team live from moscow it's a big night here now early sunday morning my name is kevin now in our top story syria's capital has been struck by two deadly bombings which targeted security buildings killing twenty seven people injuring over one hundred more the state broadcaster suggests the attacks were carried out by terrorists and detonated car bombs a middle east correspondent paula slayer brings you up today. aluminum reports suggest that vehicles path with explosives were detonated targeting the security complex and hitting the police and intelligence buildings now the government is calling

of the united nations security council to give the nod to the proposals he's put forward on the table now the russian from minister sergei lavrov has members of the u.n. security council to come forward and give this support russia is also calling for a political dialogue that will see an agreement between the syrian regime and the opposition. has handed over a set of balls also to syria i can assure you these proposals are not mention any demands on president bashar al assad to step down i believe it's up to the syrian people to decide this issue any consensus decision of the government and all position groups come to as a result of dialogue that russia is not supporting the syrian regime will support the launch of a political process a cease fire is needed for that in the first place in the coming days they will be a delegation from the united nations visiting syria to assess what is the reality on the ground and this is the latest effort to reach some kind of political agreement between these two universities and the opposition. so to james petras

he's a sociology professor of bring him to the university in new york he told me the bombings could be the result of the opposition's frustration over the un's move towards finding a diplomatic solution in syria the opposition refused to look to history in a referendum. they refused to participate in the election they refuse to negotiate directly interested in violent well that's all of the government it also reflects frustration over the sacked that the un is moving toward a position of dialogue and not regime change as closely animes mission was the need for a cease fire negotiations and a repudiation of that by the opposition using bombs instead of dialogue is an indication. they're losing international support. still

have you on the program with me kevin oh in a post revolutionary take on justice thousands of vigilantes the plan police have crossed could start giving rise to the but the law is now available to rent to the highest bidder got more another head. convicted nazi war criminal john demjanjuk has died in a care home in germany he was ninety one in twenty eleven he was convicted of assisting in the murder of around twenty eight thousand jews while serving guard duty in a death camp in poland he was sentenced just five years in prison because the court ruled no particular crime could be directly attributed to him he was allowed to stay in a home for the elderly while his appeal was being reviewed. ok live elsewhere in europe s s veterans have been getting heroes on is the annual notch held in latvia's capital's been massively condemned as glorification of naziism despite that it's got supported the highest political levels though as artie's jacob graves

found. there's been decades of change since the world where nazi germany dominated despite the bloody legacy in some quarters of europe fairview still have an audience how much are you ready for how did you lose or crying about the holocaust between one hundred forty in one thousand forty one the war. who killed me i think they received it would be deserved. this is as one thousand five hundred people gathered to officially commemorate those who fought alongside hitler's armies and joined the waffen s.s. the meeting stoking fears of a neo nazi resurgence in latvia we can not be silent when the people are knowing the memory of the nads east of the earth and this are marching in the streets of a member of the european union those in the crowd defend their start saying the

so-called legionnaires were fighting for liberty at a time when tyranny face latvia from all directions it was a military force formed in one thousand nine hundred forty three for volunteers and members of the disbanded latvian auxiliary police responsible for the mass killing of jews this image of that is youth lining the streets to welcome in veterans commemorating asian ness day is one that has become common place was also something that is increasingly warring observers if it may represent a rise of the far right both sane commentators are asking why this message is being supported at the very top of the country's leadership. love being president but as inch as argued it is foolish to assume that an s.s. veterans are criminals saying they deserve the public's respect people who are in charge in the in positions of all thirty should not be setting examples where young people start to believe that

a buff n s s is something that you should wish to follow echoing such sentiment anti fascist groups governing by in a protest to be annual march the rise in far right rhetoric is not unique to let vs as a continent rich by financial crisis ultra nationalists and has been growing throughout europe you've got the fascist right people who are proud of being sort of a letter and or whatever and you've got the fascist light but people who like probably marine le pen in france are actually coming from that kind of coming from that kind of position is a growth most apparent in march is a celebrate those who others strong beak them accompanied by personal messages such as this war made it a latvian t.v. station they stand as a striking image of europe's lingering past. but could have an increasing impact on its future degrees r c reader in latvia. a change of

pace ahead still to come in the program remote access who needs water or brushing closer to one sleepy village but the twenty first centuries left behind. to belorussian sentenced to death for last year's metro bombing and minsk have reportedly been executed the family of one of the men said they received a letter from the country's supreme court although there's been no official confirmation reports of the second execution later surfaced in the local media and that is a really good school reports it's a case in tract of condemnation far and wide. the two men are accused of carrying out the blasts in the metro in two thousand and eleven in april of two thousand and eleven they were arrested just a couple of days after the blast stick place and were put on trial and they owed more accused of carrying out not just the terror attack in april of last year but also of another one which also happened in minsk in two thousand and eight one of

the men to meet you kind of all of has actually pleaded guilty to both cases where is the other men. has pleaded not guilty he has also written a letter with a petition for pardon to the bell russian president that petition was refused officially now this case was very closely followed by human rights organizations especially those in europe as a matter of fact the chairman of big european parliament has also written a petition regarding the plea for pardon of the two men to the bill russian authorities but it is probably safe to assume that that plea has also been refused of course bellers has been on the reader of it the european human rights you could say she's for a very long time a lot of people in europe question the tactics and the policies of the russian authorities are going comes to matters concerning human rights and the freedom of speech and freedom of expression and valorous and as it stands right now is the only country in europe still to employ capital punishment ensley go system.

reporting the. website for you tonight i want to whistle blow julian assange is ready to run for the senate is making the strain yeah. rest of the way but. also what about this are you replied to this cia agent as the film the dark secret of the white good looks you can tell your family you want to know what we're talking about. i'm. this is our team is six months since the birth of occupy wall street movements that swept the world of a dazzling speed attracting millions who were fed up with inequality and greed from tear gas and rubber bullets to baton wielding cops and forced evictions the

occupiers were that everything thrown at them but now many of the camps a sprinkling on the feet was dying down as christine freezone found out. ever gaps of free will but the old need it's a global the say ship will fold up a nation a small flock of media saturation we first met joe more than in the early stages of the occupy wall street movement and out here since i think october second degree a little bit just the whole. government corruption. or so really it's just relationship that they got a lot of. like it's stuff it's responsible for multiple atrocities all why a former children's mental health counselor jules position was cut and he was left without a job and instead found a place and a purpose here still. this is the settlement that we just wrecked it to protect us from the outside conditions and

those conditions not all thanks to mother nature every night or something and there's always some fights there's always to some kind of drama happening because a lot of i swear the police have been telling my joke and his brother they want to get us but they hang out go to three. big fears and square one of the longest lasting occupations and it out becoming a microcosm of society itself with similar issues from timeliness to crime. till joel and many others here remain undeterred here today is january the third two thousand and twelve. year the revolution is what i'd call it. it is close to. maybe twenty six twenty seven degrees outside but it wasn't too cold but these are the actual notices that were posted on the occupiers tents setting off a firestorm of both anger and support and the construction of this tense of dream. most people did end up leaving joel included i guess the thing that maybe stop

living here was the raid. that was i mean that was i mean they have infrared helicopters flying around at night you know out. michael farmall vision on the chance to make sure the people are in the tent sleeping but even police crackdowns have not meant the end of occupy wall street and this is my fear since where today nearly six months after the occupy wall street movement began a few tense remain but it's largely symbolic joel and the others say the occupation aspect of this movement is simply one chapter of a longer story with many more still yet to be written but we do the dirty work for them the desire for radical change and a newfound belief that it can actually be achieved is strong enough not to be subdued and that brought me here was that feeling that something was incredibly wall with society in the system in general and everything that we you know are you know should be naturally against as human beings and. i forgot found that there was

actually something that we can do about it in washington christine frizz now r t. well regardless of where the occupy movements they are going to go recent claims from a former goldman sachs executive over the company's moral decay is certainly resonated with a group coming up next hour on this channel r.t. x. and stacey also weigh in on the crisis of the controversial thank you for. what it's like goldman sachs makes a ten million dollars bonus or a thirty million dollars bonus he has lost for various clients including greece or other countries or other corporations three hundred or four hundred billion in losses he's paid a percentage of dull losses this is why the global g.d.p. is in retreat this is why the united states are still preferred that low to fifteen sixteen seventeen trillion to paper over the losses but goldman is in the business of delivering to customers many of which are too frickin stupid to understand that

it's not necessarily a green idea if lloyd blankfein set you up with a thirty second street that's not worth throwing your company under the bus for but a lot of c.e.o.'s are so frickin stupid because the cost of money is cheap but they're willing to give away their company their family their life for just such an arrangement. for thirty minutes max and co next for you a u.s. soldier accused of killing sixteen civilians in afghanistan has been named as staff sergeant robert bales he's already been sent back to the states in a military prison but has not yet been charged army officials say he's been held in solitary confinement and afghan investigation claims that bales was not acting alone or that up to twenty other u.s. troops may have taken part in the massacre international affairs commentator rick ross off believes the cold blooded killing of civilians by american forces is history repeating itself. but we have reason to believe you know received no it's

right all we have to recall is seven years ago in iraq in the city of the twenty perhaps iraqi civilians were killed by nine u.s. servicemen none of whom were prosecuted for their crimes the leader of the group was simply charged with dereliction of duty and broken rank. you know which is is hardly commensurate no punishment but there is a difference between so-called collateral damage and targeting a kill and other kind of this sunday with several houses in a religion were perfect there were people around the government people you know sixteen the government state seventeen or more people going to them and of nine children three women and so forth and it suggests first the role of the one person who aren't really a perpetrator of a crime and it's on this is a very deliberate. action and for us and it's very different very good and anything else is just inherently with too violent revolutions in just seven years that's the

price the people of the central asian republic of kurdistan have paid so far for a free and democratic frame chip and today public got a monster towards the police is an all time high blame for the rise in a culture of vigilantism i think xander boyko reports on those who still want the streets in the name of justice. reflecting their blows and kicks in bishkek downtown this young man of the constant reminder of the violence that per leader of kurdistan street politics for the past decade and this is who should be serving in the police a punch line stretched to the heart of the country's security problems two years ago during the last curtis revolution the police opened fire if protesters. almost seventy were killed forcing the president to step down and since then the country's north origins have effectively replaced the police because of vigilante groups will move here move i told you the movement of bruising yukio people's guards counts

tens of thousands who one is ready his men patrolled the streets at night and just a phone call away during the day organized in small cells their mobile and easily manageable and increasingly they're being trained by the very same security forces they're supposed to be filling for. the interior ministry in the ministry of defense train or volunteers and in time of need when police and your mirror moralized we are ready to defend our country the new security arrangement was in full display during the recent presidential elections in addition to observer and regular police each pulling station had a group of heavily built man who called themselves peoples guards all candidates in the corridors elections extolling the virtues of democracy and the rule of law but to make sure the base for graphic values work in their favor many of them chose to rely on natural rather than political muscle the country's former interior minister

says rewiring the regular police allows the knee authorities an excuse to maintain their own private armies and keys the public discontent boils over once again. under the pretext of the police and the more annoyed the new with origins are creating their own security units whose primary goal is not to protect the law for all. but rather to protect the private interests of the boss. a succession of the revolutions has also led to a rise in the number of private security agencies here in the center of this character cars train weekly to hit targets. during the last revolution protesters raided several depots and many of their weapons are still at large in such a manner that it's true that our business grows in times of instability but we are really tired of all these revolutions and what we need is stable economic development on evolution. and this revolutionary fatigue plays well into the near thirty's hands they may have been brought to power by the popular uprising but with

thousands of well trained guards under their command they sure hope not to leave the office in a similar fashion it's not going to artsy could stand. this is a little bit of cheer for you in a couple of minutes we'll bring you the party for sympatric in the very heart of moscow. if you. cannot hire is do you become a pen pal. well but it with a glance of a drink it seems the center of the capital revels in all things are as we report first on the festivities for you. so well new stories in brief the former head of libya's intelligence services has been arrested in airport mauritania in western africa. new cizik use of being a close gadhafi confidante and a major figure behind efforts to stamp out last year's uprising he's also wanted by the international criminal court for crimes against humanity libya's national

transitional council now wants them extradited. japan says it's considering whether to destroy a satellite which north korea is planning to move next month over fears that it's a disguised long range missile test north korea and this is just a working satellite which it wants to send into space in april to mark in perth and to an area of the state founder kim il sung several countries including the u.s. russia and china have condemned pyongyang. to break the news now and head off the beaten track if it should be this. saturday night for some more of russia's hidden corners close up. or are taking to remote settlement in the year of mountains which post headline grabbing name the village of newspapers was called where it seems tongue stood still for almost a century as it gets about as remote as you can get tongue but managed to find its

way there though. you could terran berg is one of russia's biggest cities but a few hours away it's a different world where we were going even tarmac would be a luxury that we end of the road from here to the village it's just forest time for me to do this and go even further off the beaten track. eventually we saw it welcome to the village of news paper population ten people two horses two cows and no running water no electricity and one rather strange name it was founded in one nine hundred twenty four by a group of collective farm workers and wanted to branch out on their own but they had a problem with what mr with the need to stand missing your village they had to have

to mission so they apply to retrieve the local paper when the permission was granted their name to newspapering things. said larner is one of only two people who have lived here all their life the other is galena after her husband died she continued to live here alone every winter there snowed in so what if they need help . even to get help if something happens you are only rodent if you can't get through the phone no one will come. strad larner with her two horses is essentially the village taxi service her twenty one year old son lives here too and for the moment is content working on a local logging site. that he doesn't want to leave in the town he likes it here but i'm not sure if he'll stay here that long it might be fun for he wrote his still young but i think you might get more didn't occur can roam freely.

dogs don't need to be locked in fact apart from tending the livestock the only law and order necessary here is to stop the dogs fighting but newspaper is incredibly small too small i wondered to survive i was surprised to find it was good leno who disagreed with me but i didn't hear the village has a future it needs to hold on it's a nice quiet place and that's why i said to residents come here we need new paltz for some houses. so it looks like far from dying out clean as granddaughter could be joined by many more visitors i wouldn't hold out for the road though tom barton party. it was a funny line there about no newspaper delivery but it lost me right back here moscow turned green for a day as crowds gathered in the capital to celebrate the additional irish holidays and patrick's day congratulations to our very best if you're celebrating it more so

join the revellers. there's no doubt that when you think of death and patty's day you think all the islands and the irish people themselves but also the most iconic of all saints some paddy himself today at the o.r. but was celebrating just that bad just like the rest of the world from new york to bangkok to beijing as well as here in moscow not muscle had actually been celebrating some of his days of ninety ninety two and it's cultural events like this that have tied russia in hiding to get back into business in trade you know why did they have of use the analogy in terms of a culture's bane joy having fun and making people smile and having a few drinks so no sympatric day celebration is complete until you have i believe that about and that you can ask and say we would have a special green that fia you know as they say. in ireland's sons everybody. to them would they i would see moscow.
