western countries in the gulf at the present time and the danger that comes from that we need an aspiration of peace and understanding in the region israel has the capability of bombing with nuclear weapons iran or indeed any other country in the region isolating iran allowing israel continue with these threats it seems to me very very dangerous to the movement indeed think of the consequences for the western economies the whole world's economies of a war with iran think of the incalculable loss of people all over that region if we let slip the dogs of war we will all live if we do live to regret it if you minutes from now the dream is not for lovers of guns. as washington by the after effects of a soldier's shooting rampage in afghanistan america is about to ease up on its gambles. and also look at spain's i've had generation the young people are feeling the pinch as jobs dry up and leave the euro zone's withering economy.

6:08 pm
deeply rooted in the us. throughout the media we have heard justifications for males apparent rampage and you know they go through things like he might have had a concussion he was having trouble at home. or was stressed from you know who or but you know people that are outside outside of the u.s. military that commit these kinds of crimes simply don't receive that kind of sympathy there was a thread with new york times about how he's you know he's a true good man but he has problems and so on and so forth there is an extended effort to try and paint him. as a generally good man who whose crime can be excused what is a about a society that title lies isn't feticide is. a commitment to kill on the orders of politicians in washington that's that's not that's a strange thing to admire except it's widespread throughout this culture there are
6:09 pm
many atrocities that have been committed comparable to this one in the past in iraq and afghanistan that get papered over after the controversy settles in the dust settles these soldiers in their military trials trying to get off easy the military can do no wrong scenes and that's that's the real tragedy. before enlisting in the military robert bales is in the finance industry and left under a cloud and that's something he kinds reported gets his teeth into next hour see. that sergeant robert bales was previously a stockbroker for it from one thousand nine hundred six to two thousand and he enlisted in the army shortly after federal financial regulators found he engaged in fraud breach of duty churning an authorized trading and unsuitable investments the perfect training to become a slaughtering out of control maniac with a gun in afghanistan. brokers all about slaughtering people no we don't call it

6:11 pm
a place where red white and blue is displayed with pride but here the symbol of liberty isn't just a flag it's this. it definitely is a sign of freedom you know to be able to go on and until now wind was all you could buy in virginia every thirty days the law was supposed to curb gun trafficking but many here felt it curbed freedom instead it's not anyone's business how many guns i own or how i buy them or buy them from really we have the second amendment for is a. virgin you repeal the one handgun per month law in february and come summertime the right to bear arms will mean the right to buy as many of these. so we want but there are so many different makes and models brands that you know got to have it's addictive but for much of the world's this kind of freedom may seem bizarre to young man apparently dressed in long black trench coats open fire across the globe guns are associated with tragedies. or bloodshed and battlefields of war.
6:12 pm
but for the winners like jim hansen the guns belong in the hands of american citizens the safest person in the world is someone who is legally carrying a firearm america is a country that was founded with a basic understanding that guns are the bad seed in this world are two kinds of people my friend. as the most heavily armed nation in the world there are few diggers to be found in america as of two thousand and seven there were an estimated two hundred ninety four million guns in this country that's nearly enough to arm every man woman and child. program but in the u.k. and in virginia gun shops like this one people just can't seem to get enough whether it's handguns assault rifles or shotguns sales are better than ever they are booming they are definitely through the roof or in a. and in a place for guns mean freedom that trend isn't likely to change an armed society is
6:13 pm

there's no response from anger in austerity hit greece as another protest against budget cuts has ended up in clashes with police the country has been relying on international blood since may twenty. sixth i think comes the belt tightening has been matched with public fury and continuing protests it's a feeling shared by young people in spain where they used jobless rate is heading for fifty percent due to severe economic problems and as artists are fast reports the countries don't intend to make their voices. using quite as his spark fears of a lost generation if you eat unemployment at an all time high with more than forty nine percent of sixteen twenty four year olds now out of work it's plain that is
6:16 pm
particularly stuff that we've come here today one of the universities in spain to speak to some of the students. really high unemployment figures he was like to be a student at this time in the country. why toward actually because you know the the future you can expect unemployment rates are already this high and the. schools are becoming a private business it's hard to tell if you're going to find a job when you when you finish studying if you can actually do some college studies because if you have to pay really high price for them you are not even going to be able to go to college at all think of it is that. people who suffer or are we. children and i think their government have to think that indication is their most important thing because because of us will be we will create a future so they have to spend money they have to spend money in education what i
6:17 pm
would like to see would be people massively going out of the street and protesting big things change people have that power and i would like them to realize. increasingly that i think that he will spin students have been doing taking to the streets to protest the measures being booth in by the new government this is not just students that are suffering spain in the last four years three million jobs. disappear. and now we are suspecting at least four hundred thousand. more jobs to disappear in the coming months he joins some of the country's student unions they plan for their next peaceful protests but they tell us that in the government's approach to managing it and stations is anything but peaceful the government there will be elections on the twentieth of november one month after that they were spending over a million euros on tear gas and other equipment to repress their own citizens on
6:18 pm
the street one million euros of the budget of a county that this has already a really bad economy and weapons to use against our own citizens when they came here to complain about what we're doing to them that's what the new government of spain is doing. the seemingly hardline approach has been established government in managing these traitors who proved to be a real problem when hundreds of thousands of disenchanted queues determined not to pay for the mistakes of the past teaches third. day. and a quick look at other news making headlines around the world clash in the northwest part of left five soldiers and twelve time about killed the fighting took place in a town known to be a medicine a military operation targeted insurgents has kidnapped two army officers a few days ago and later to cover tasers from. russia golding a bus unknowingly of birmingham in england has left one person dead and about forty injured witnesses say they work for you conditions at the time according to local

6:20 pm
this year the u.s. saw its fourth warmest winter on record and europe saw a record breaking cold why is no one talking about the perils of climate change any more this week let's talk about that do you think it's still a threat to the planet yes over here especially what traffic. you know we use a lot of cars we like to pollute the earth here in the u.s. definitely you know what can you do i mean what can the individual. person do we can stop using plastic bags and turning the lights out we already knew that we really don't feel like that makes a big difference well no we do yes we do as much as we can but you know it's time for the government heads worldwide do you think that the world still cares about it because it doesn't seem to be in the headlines as frequently absolutely not so why is that i don't know. for a government to figure out but they don't want to give us an affirmation for us to make our own decisions and i think it's something that people know i mean everyone
6:21 pm
a lot of people watch you know watch al gore and listen to him and can't remember the name of the movie i can't. get it all we heard about it was an inconvenient truth so we forgot that dave you know we forgot why do you think the media's got to talk about it because it clearly wasn't common sense that stops them. because they found something else to talk about i do believe people are working on it and when you talk to my son who's in college and his friends i think there is a lot more concern than we have sometimes yeah it's i guess it's he can't really gauge everything but what the media is talking about right right we're going to have snow in june at this point so you believe it's still yes absolutely so why isn't the media talking about it anymore big business big oil companies don't want to hear that again money to lobbyists that don't want to hear it go for it bill but we don't hear about it so much. are we headed for doom i hope. you have heard sarah pretty twenty first right well the bottom line is although there are people who are
6:22 pm
still concerned about the effects of climate change the mainstream media is clearly not among them. high and jury never goes out of fashion with robust sales describe the financial squeeze one city that's never lost its sparkle is the production powerhouse of cars trying central russia has factories are thriving and its traditional cross ship that's running rings around mass produced alternatives as piece of all of the discover. there's gold in the hills not just skilled diamonds rubies and just about any other precious and certainly precious stone you can imagine that's because in the city of costa the mouth to the north of moscow lies the beating heart of russia's jewelry industry. it's difficult to get exact figures but we can say with a degree of confidence that every fourth product in russia is one of ours despite
6:23 pm
this being a tough time economically for a lot of businesses the de'monte company a looking to branch out the vast majority of russia's jewelry comes from this region with over four million pieces a year coming off the production lines and it's fun to be alone all those that have to challenge the dominance of mass production. just down the road from the major factories it occurs in a sales guy a school a metal treatment and teaching students how to hunt craft bespoke jewelry for one hundred fifty years however despite the history the rise of the factories does cause some concern the problem here is that some graduates find it hard to work on new equipment installed at these factories but they can do everything from a desert with their hands students come from far afield to attend the school samuel shammy law is from israel he's following in his uncle's put stamps by studying here and has high hopes for the future. earrings that i make are valued very highly i
6:24 pm
can't think of a factory that can do things like they're maybe tiffany this is the level i am aspiring to. perhaps the inspiration for the students is the success of local independent gauri blastoff working from home alongside his wife tatiana a couple of produced some stunningly beautiful pieces drawing inspiration from a multitude of sources. i turn to history to literature and my previous experience with some of the blastoff pieces containing thousands of stones and taking more than six months to complete they don't come cheap but they are source after the fact president dmitri medvedev is among those who has purchased their work he gori says there will always be room for both the factories and the individual craftsman to produce and sell their wares. i think traditional craft and mass production can co-exist because they are two different things it's like juxtaposing talk would
