4:14 pm
about it cracking eggs now as we continue these benefit we're going to see more and more social unrest this is led politicians to assume that more force is needed to maintain the peace and this of course means more violence against people moments against the people means more protests their watch. as there they are squeezed economically socially and politically and so i would expect to see more and more protests that turned violent and more and more. growth in the extreme political parties as these extremist parties begin to make political hay out of people's discontent we're going to see this in spain we see it in italy and we're going to see in france in the near term getting to the next year or two and so i would that this is just the beginning we're going to see a lot worse soon. the protests in spain echo with what we saw in the streets of greece too over the past few years but the to gas molotov cocktails and lines of place in the longer a common side instead longstanding public is now taking new forms of expression
4:15 pm
jacob graves reports. greek streets of come to embody and tear stare to rage in the eurozone huge crowds have marched to voice their anger. with discontent fooling on deaf ear is different tools have also been employed for me the graffiti strewn on the capitals is simply an eyesore but for others it's a chance to keep their message keep their demonstration. with nobody else on the streets protesting. with aerosols rather than amplifiers their outrage is left a lasting impact around greece. going by the name of muppets he largely uses graffiti to combat the growth in far right racism is taking the country by storm but others target the government's relationship with major euro zone play is an impact it's had on a desperate population we can see here. and the money that the politicians spend
4:16 pm
about buying things we don't really want that military hardware was acquired from germany the official who bought it now resides in prison on charges of corruption some works appear to be more angry schools an outlet for a generation that feels forgotten others a more direct attempt to sway the opinion of a nation but all variants of the new forms of activism we don't have an experience of this kind in the past mainly because since i was born it least or couple of years later after the germans left greece as an occupying force it's been it's been an upward ruled all the way he's last two or three years have been greece's first experience of going down rather than upward a strong economy is soaring jobless rates a few much of the anger from the podium to the problem not in. recently the e.u.
4:17 pm

4:19 pm
year and we all recall hundreds of thousands of protesters taking part in huge demonstrations last year we've not seen the same numbers for some time now why is this movement on the way you know i'm not sure this is the way the way to what's going on because it's be. one year twelve months and society and a country can. start to vote for demonstration still there is almost every week. thousands of people going out on the street for the same demand and for me i'm not comparing it to the hundreds of thousands i'm comparing it to the people that were in the streets of israel for sixty four years still. the government. some of the. some of the suggestions you. could you know see that's taken some of the windows of your sails they're full. you say again clear there has been housing
4:20 pm
. that you want to live in that has taken i guess some of the wind out of your protest is your new sort of protest of sales as. i say again i'm sorry time for me to understand your age it's ok i know it's busy with the government acted on some of you over the last year i guess really. going to say you said no to that hasn't taken the window to sales you're saying. no no not really because there was things that were much more course medics. and all the decisions and the committees who are held by the government who are completely cosmetics they're real change that we demand wasn't. this start even in a big by the government and they're just trying to put us down by not really doing
4:21 pm
any kind of change after one year. but we're still we're we're not going to. be. we're not going to go back home we're going to keep on standing in the streets and keep on fighting until that will be a real change in israel people left when. and right wing people that have the same interests that their kids won't go hungry to school and that they will have proper housing where nonviolence is where people from the left and right it's really important for me to say that she was allowing two but i know you have thanks for making your point it's appreciated one of the organizers and i thank you very much . it's less than a day to go before a new international space station crew three blasts off to the final frontier out. to the launch site speaking to those who also water the stuff. in the scorching heat of kazakstan right bay in the distance lies the rocket launcher that will be
4:22 pm
propelling at the thought used here may outdo the eye it says from by cannot cause what are you about the team have had a very very busy weekend they've had press conferences with cameras and photographers all of the celebrity like like them just before their big day friends and family have been gathered here at baikonur cosmodrome just giving them support and saying that we're all behind you on your important mission what will they be doing up there well as always a research and scientific research is on the agenda they'll be looking at looking at how humans can live in orbit with the world's media watching and photographers clicking this shot as a way to get the perfect shot one wonders how the three people on the spot like today feel about their next mission to the international space station expedition thirty two thirty three is underway because they sort of started thinking about this a little bit and the black eyed peas come to mind and if you know the song tonight's
4:23 pm
going to be a good time and the second one of course is let's get this party started after two weeks we're all very relaxed including the backup crews. and we're ready for launch and. just the vehicle itself is ready and willing. i took one of my daughters small plastic toys but i took it by accident so i must bring it back yuri of course was the first person to get married in space and his spirit of strength has always been his wife when i was how she felt she said lots of emotion but i'm happy that he's doing what he loves to do so but that i'll be without him for the space shuttle missions rely on many resources to make them possible but the rocket pad and space craft remains one of the most important aspects of getting the astronauts to orbit tons of steel and engineering put together so signs and astronauts can continue their research so what will this
4:24 pm
mission be looking out at. at the i assess i think the crews going to have a really exciting time on board space station because there's going to be so many activities going on with. my visit it being all going to be arriving and leaving from the station. and believe me it's a really big is a big going on as well so it's going to be a very busy time for them. and then i have flown with that yuri on my last flight so i know they'll have a good time with syria. sonny is just very outgoing big areas saw use the launch of facilities technical complex constructions it really is a rocket science but what about those who live among the rockets themselves the scientists what's life like for them living here connected with space when i go to work and i see a rocket disappearing into the skies i always clap it's a tradition here for good luck getting it can explain how i feel when i see the
4:25 pm
rocket launch every time it makes me feel nervous as if it was the first time i'd seen it i'm also very proud of the international space station is the largest and most complex scientific project in history as the station's potential continues to grow most sophisticated research is in demand it's a shared vision of these astronauts and their community we're always looking to get the party started from earth to the milky way. and this is. a bomb with a our team baikonur has a son. and of course it is it does all get started most rockets far out will bring you the live shot so for tomorrow. political campaign should highlight a candidate strengths but all too often they're frequently used to course to personally attack opponents so they get the views of the streets of new york over whether smith takes off air off. is the president.
4:26 pm
this is the year of important elections the world around and many of them involve dirty negative campaigning are you ok with that this week let's talk about that john of kennywood never got elected. today with his lifestyle a womanizing enormous yes absolutely absolutely is that a good thing that politicians go there or is it better we just don't know it's very don't know because it's going to do with being a politician get i don't think we have to mix politics with personal. life yet but if it helps someone get elected is that ok. i don't think so if one candidate is doing towards another i think that's a little unfair but if both are going back and forth which they normally are i think it's completely fair it's all part of the game in politics and i think that it's a fair point is that like that and now i'm all old now yes it's crazy about that they are all racists more calm or do they stick to the issues yes
4:27 pm
so do you feel like more gets done that way yes i think so it's not all about the person lives who's left it is who is the public so dumb that we don't recognize it's also been in flocks why are we demanding more i don't think we're dumb we're just complacent we want to be taken care of we don't really care we think it's going to be ok and we really don't feel like we have a. voice how is it in denmark well not us bad and. well yes the same tendency. they lost ideas and. tried to get power as the political parties i think yeah when power is on the table anything goes right how does it change. take our money take power but i mean it's it's it's something that's just kind of just pop. of how it works unfortunately so i don't think there's
4:28 pm
a fairy tale way that oh stop i would rather hear about their policies and their records as politicians and public servants if one politician stuck to that while the other one was throwing mud what do you think what would. i like to think that the guy that stuck to his record of the woman who stuck to her record when i'm voting for her to get me to that matter whether or not you think it's ok for politicians to smear their opponents the bottom line is it's up to each of us to sort through the noise to find the true grass that will. try to house when it's possibly tonight or must go about with a recap of the headlines in just over a minute. while
