lol. tens of thousands of spaniards take to the streets at the start of a four day series of protests against the government's assertive program spending cuts and tax hikes. a euro zone exit looms or for greece as talks on forming a coalition government failed the party leaders now true to me but the president in a final attempt to settle their differences. dryly believes arrest hundreds strike demonstrators including children during a demonstration in solidarity with palestinian prisoners. and a u.s. students bogged down in that facing a lifetime of loan payments while struggling to find jobs now comping the true cost of the education.

on line and on screen twenty four hours a day seven days a week this is r t with me to bomb with a welcome to the program let's take a look at the main stories tens of thousands have gathered in the streets of spanish cities to vent their anger over the government's relentless austerity drive the schedule for day protest are marking the first anniversary of the formation of the indignance movement protests are being staged in as many as eighty spanish cities supporting demonstrations across europe the people are demanding an end to cuts that have left public services from health to education badly underfunded spain's experiencing its deepest economic crisis in decades with unemployment at record highs leaving one in four out of work because i'm a professor of political communication believes it's the system of government itself that's the problem. we're here in the quarter that surely must read which is the main a square for the for in march use our gallery here. there's our meeting which

trains to commemorate. one year ago the society just expressed how much fed up they were with things and how much they wanted the political landscape and also the economic reform. the crisis how much they wanted it to revert these people want to take part in politics and they won't they cannot take part in politics because they have reached the conclusion that voting. is not i mean it is worth it is does not reflect. the public opinion. because only two main parties can government and actually it's a bipartisan system they factor. in both main parties coincide fully

in their economic measures meanwhile in athens political party leaders have failed to reconcile their differences and form a coalition government there now scheduled to meet with the president in a last ditch effort to avoid a new election one that could result in greece's exit from the eurozone the e.u. is also deeply worried over the possible consequences that maintains greece's exit or one be fatal for the euro political analyst dr alessandro politi says the issue shouldn't be about preserving the single currency but helping the people. already. you know the bottom and very soon other countries will do the say because it's not just working class it's really middle middle class which will be squeezed without any picture for the sake of these financial interests and this is something which goes against the grain of democracy and against a grain of dignity and freedom we are starting to actually to you know a number of shoes. which are very similar to the ones that we.

watched just saying. official statistics and statistics office well the number is in line with the past years i'm sure the same thing has been said to be stuck to stations but that is not the point it's not about numbers it is about politics and political perception so i think search for the situation at least in some countries is really ready for. something very similar to an arab revolution. across the e.u. anger is growing with many feeling that they are painful the price for bailing out they may because some private german investors most of them pensioners are furious saying they were duped into investing in doomed to greek bonds from hamburg i t z got a piece going up sent this report. imagine most of your retirement savings gone with the stroke of

a pen and this man certainly knows how it feels peter moritz invested his savings into greek silver and bonds after being guaranteed his money was protected by the government but soon the retired banker realized he was and played in his own game they are looking for people like me. re dired not a little bit gracie in short of the hospital maybe here then here you have no risk peter is among hundreds of german investors who were advised to invest money into greek ones to secure some cash for retirement but greece's recent debt swap which cut the country's financial burden by more than one hundred billion euros swallowed their money despite guarantees in other words private german investors are being forced to pay greek bills now they're getting ready to sue the banks for what they claim was fraudulent advice and the governments of both greece and germany for not fulfilling their obligations if. there's an agreement between

greece and germany that this money is secure from political risks it's really unclear why private investors should be responsible for political gains brussels is aiming to reduce greece's debt from one hundred sixty to one hundred twenty percent of g.d.p. by two thousand and twenty and the long term plan is supposed to attract over ninety five percent of private investors like peter moritz who bought greek bonds. these investments are usually money for retirement family support or medical treatment in many cases these people are very dependent on it. in greece constant austerity measures and hard hearted banking policies are already pushing some ordinary citizens to go to the most extreme forms of protest in turn to keep greece from completely going under brussels is also willing to shock through its actions which are. in the pockets of europeans outside the greek state putting money into

severing bonds is supposed to be one of the safest ways of an investment but a pearl we want to go to greece as the bond holders that we invested in using what was supposed to be celebrates but as it turned out for me they would have been no better off than if they had just. the waters gone off or to germany. over doesn't activists including one youngster have been brutally arrested during a palestinian hunger strike in protest against detention without charge in israeli jails mass rallies are pitting their supporters against israeli soldiers every day and young children often end up bearing the brunt of their crackdowns as policy or reports. the scenes are all too familiar children throwing stones soldiers brandishing rifles major confusion very often it's very difficult for the army to determine who throw stones but a message has to be sent to the local population but that won't be tolerated and

the message is delivered brutally these children were playing in a side street in east jerusalem when undercover israeli soldiers attacked them and forced them into their vehicle. he caught me by the neck and started choking me he dragged me to the current true me inside i told him i was hurting me but they said it's not their problem. i report issued by defense for children international found that in most cases children are rested in the middle of the night they were blindfolded their hands are tied and they taken in a military vehicle to an interrogation center by the time a child arrives here at off a prison he will have been detained for up to eight days in the end because of pressure almost all plead guilty but it's far from clear they really are relative good in that he told me the best way to get out is to confess they said they had four soldiers testimonies and it's testimony as one month in prison so i can first i eventually said i did it with war but the truth says it by him is that he was at

his grandparents' house for the festival of ied they'd been clashes between army and palestinian youths and the soldiers had started going from house to house rounding up youngsters. so they wanted to take anyone they didn't care who i told them i wasn't throwing stones but they kept hitting me and saying we know it was you aside from the arrests and illegal detentions in the last decade israeli forces have killed almost one and a half thousand palestinian children but the i.d.f. justifies its actions by saying many of them are used by adults as pawns one incident that's been publicized a lot was when a fourteen year old palestinian boy was quarter to checkpoint with a suicide belt attached to him since june one thousand nine hundred sixty seven more than three quarters of a million palestinian men women and children have been through the israeli military courts a statistic that underscores the perpetual palestinian search for justice policy r.t. katana village still to come this hour the same end of the west or

seem assume that was saddam hussein a lot of america africa southeast asia and dictators we support like mentally and mubarak and i think that for the problem of course of course you know it was too late us to stop what happened. in tunisia egypt and yemen but thanks to our angels of the small size of the intervention by saudi troops and pro-democracy story will unfortunately you know what was chris crushed just last weekend bahrain's leading human rights activists an outspoken critic of the ruling family was detained in the country and charged with inciting protests three social networks now bill ridge odds are as comes just after he was interviewed on joining the sun just here on our team go to the specialist on just section on our website i t dot com to watch that interview.

it's. your idea of the rules and regulations that please but to indians it's every day life. to. treat people writing about. it just grows with our mind we're just riveted that. it's quite funny. the streets of new delhi are the deadliest in india some as to me that at least five people die every day in collisions but while men are required to wear helmets when riding two wheelers which dominate the roads in delhi the city's high court hasn't been able to make mandatory helmet wearing a rule for women the issue has been particularly divisive in india's large sikh population think men are required by religion to wear a turban and since you can't wear a helmet on top of a turban all sikhs were exempt from the safety measure but since seat women don't

you see where it's terrible i made it hard for a law enforcement to identify a woman from a non sikh woman so in the name of fairness to all women for except for the rules here. but indian women's issues over the helmets extends beyond just the sikh community women of all backgrounds in delhi opt not to wear a helmet but this isn't about religious duty this is about plain old vanity on the me and i don't like wearing a helmet because when i go for part is it spoils my makeup and my hair. experts say indian women routinely don't make safety a priority to men used to neglecting themselves it's that we were in a program to neglect themselves so if there is a problem. if there isn't a health crisis with the man and the woman of the house then the man is taken to a doctor the woman is not. free now all the havoc over the home it will be put on

hold and women will continue to commute hard hat free regardless of the risks preassure either party new delhi india iran three thousand opposition supporters have gathered in the heart of the ukrainian capital kiev many of them demanding the release of jailed ex prime minister yulia timoshenko the country's leadership is facing accusations at home and abroad that the former premier has been jailed for political reasons lithuania's president has warned evil of a growing crisis of trust with the e.u. over the case after visiting to michelle in hospital where she is recovering following almost three weeks on hunger strike she's currently serving a seven years for abuse of power in office and is also being treated by doctors for chronic back pain to hunger strike began after she said she'd been beaten by prison staff which is denied by the authorities her critics have questioned whether her claims of physical abuse and poor health an attempt to play political games.

obesity has become a growing problem in the west but now a debate is raging over its very description with some claiming the word obese is offensive many are now questioning whether using the medical term is politically incorrect the new proposal is to use of the phrase unhealthy weight new york resident went to chew the fat on the issue with people in the big apple. the u.k.'s national institute for health and clinical excellence has issued a guidance suggesting that the word obese might be too upsetting and derogatory to use is a case of political correctness gone mad this week let's talk about that last forty films is that when you were still heavy and someone called you obese with that offend you. been called worse you know what's worse calling someone obese or kind

someone fat. the same thing over. the sofa so should we not address the facts because it actually you can dress up like that's just a race of toilet. disparities we don't but it's bad for people it caught at least the heart trouble and a diary. covered. this week who is in charge of deciding what a word is slang and what and where it is the proper term will i mean you do you don't really want the government to be in charge of that that's for sure you have anything yeah i mean the government shouldn't be in the in the in the game of policing what you say certainly of what you think you know what if someone called you whitey if somebody called me why do you have so the property accurate but siri but you would you be offended no so why do people take offense to some words and not other words. probably because they care about what other people think it's an insecurity so we should just stop caring about what other people think and then the

whole p.c. thing all the way it's not like you should stop caring what other people think you should start caring more about what you think i think it's matters in the context that it's used like if you look at somebody and say damn they're obese that's there in that context i think it's derogatory i think the say the word obese or say obesity in general and when you're talking about a condition is it would not be derogatory just a statement of of a problem in a society maybe if here. if we ever get this word to be rude feel ok maybe a little bigger than. regular people so there's no problem and work if you want to think about it exactly like what are we afraid to college drug user or drug user. this isn't being where we should escape from the problem to try the program tonight escape for a bit whether or not you think the word obese is derogatory the bottom line is that it's also a medical condition and simply avoiding the word is not going to make the issue go

away. now i look at some other top stories from around the world a militant group with alleged links to al qaeda has claimed responsibility for double bombings in the syrian capital damascus which killed fifty five people in a video posted online the group called the news were front says the blossoms one of the intelligent complex came in response to what it sees as government attacks on residential areas your thought is however say they are fighting terrorists in armed militia backed by foreign powers funerals have been held for the victims of thursday's attacks which were the worst since the start of the syrian and dress last year. and entered the football super finals have ended in a massive riot after hundreds of fans of archie fans angry with the nil nil outcome of the match that gave this year's title to their os rivals stormed the pitch and
