the latest news in the week's top stories from r.t. dozens more people are killed in clashes across the muslim world in a second week of anti american riots spot by the film which mocks islam. zero public tolerance for prison abuse and the arrest of activists in georgia where demonstrations continue with reaction to the league footage betraying atrocities behind bars. and the occupy wall street movement marks its one year anniversary with a demo in new york that saw over one hundred eighty activists arrested. hello

you're watching the weekly or on our t.v. with me kevin owen it's our roundup of the big stories of the last seven days and vermund anti american protests have been shaking the muslim world for nearly two weeks now but they've lost little stain in greece riot police have used tear gas and pepper spray to disperse demonstrators sunday just days after rallies to especially violent in pakistan to at least twenty people were killed on friday in clashes with police who were cracking down on the time when mobs targeting american diplomatic missions this is some pakistani officials have condemned a statement by the well ways minister there who offered one hundred thousand dollars to kill the maker of the controversial film that sparked the protests the official also called on quote taliban and al qaida brothers to take part in assassinating the pool of purcell in a pool is currently hiding in america but it's going to change you can reports next his amateur film is only

a catalyst it seems for the film that has deeper roots. the line house keeps saying it was just the anti islamic video that caused the muslims wrath across the world this is. not a case of. protests to rectify the united states writ large or a us policy this is in response to a video that is offensive but that's a claim no one is buying the administration wants us to believe it's not the administration's policies that have generated this behavior it's this one idiotic piece of so-called film which is what out there for two months well it is you know you stupid film that nobody's seen causes people to assassinate ambassadors and to storm the embassy and the question the us media keep asking why do so many millions of hate the usa but the answers they're getting are the answers very few in the us want to hear if you were to point to one thing that makes some muslims hate the usa it would be. hypocrisy over democracy. while america

the government now preaches democracy it has propped up authoritarian leaders but that's not the only accusation of hypocrisy that washington is facing there's also u.s. policy makers failure to condemn the violence when it suits their goals like the numerous terrorist attacks in syria washington seems to approve of them as long as they are targeting supporters of the government or another act of violence a rebel mob executing colonel gadhafi the us a police state cheered the news as we came we saw he died but that. washington's failure to condemn all violence equally has prompted radicals to take an even more aggressive course if most americans understood what was being done in our name in the stabilizing the middle east and north africa they would be absolutely horrified what other result to me expect these people to have no hope

their economies are destroyed they see what they're calling quarter foreign invaders of course this kind of thing is going to happen when the tragedy in libya happened be our national community whole heart. we condemned the attacks on american diplomats but the us for its part has been quite selective in condemning violence it could be that the white house thought by supporting revolutions by fostering regime change they were winning hearts and minds in the muslim world but that doesn't appear to be the case for now the obama administration constantly refers to the film as the sole reason behind what's happening a reasoning which basically allows them to avoid addressing the deeper issues in washington i'm going to. he ga the prisoner abuse scandal has now led to a group of opposition activists going on hunger strike they want the release of several arrested colleagues who are among thousands protesting after a leaked video shed light on the torture and rape of inmates by jail guards two ministers a step down after the scandal while the president replaced prison staff with police

officers but demonstrate to say that's not enough they're calling for the prosecution now the everyone responsible for the abuse revelations come just days before parliamentary elections where the government's popularity already falling because cannot because. the public is back to full shocked and angry that they're comparing the footage from the georgian for those with back from guantanamo except it convenes a suspected terrorist plot here we're talking about georgia in me another factor irritating the public right now is the recent arrest of one of the foreign leaders of the school paul just got to take more yank he was detained on saturday by traffic police officer we are not abiding to the authorities orders he was put in prison for ten days but it is reported that he was that he when he climbed the wheel off before stopped by the police early our team managed to me to the medical sort of all this released a video of i think if you look right there we used to be one of the senior staff members of the who battled for that in b.b.c.

claims that personally shot me or piece of video we also said that the interior minister filmed the video himself and personally showed it to president saakashvili all this is definitely a huge blow to be a major o.p.o. cornice since me i'll actually go to parliament it's going up on the first of october there are boarding to be elitist. both president saakashvili and the ruling party have already almost up to twenty percent of all supporters. howling tell you there's more to come from former staff warden of the infamous georgian prison who leaked the year if it videos early is known as the deed but who can say he speaks to us tells us his side of the story next hour. over a hundred eighty people were detained as occupy wall street protesters marked the movement's one year anniversary this week activists descended on new york's financial district and tried to block the entrance of the city's stock exchange of his innocence churkin has been covering it. i have heard that the occupy wall

street movement is here after its inception of takes the big apple by storm in full force i think five years that it is up more spac and behind barricades from the wee hours of the morning. marches and acts of civil disobedience all day long images that have become all too familiar throughout the past year reoccurring protesters thrown to the ground people there to document the action knocked down by . activists attempting to help others wrestled by police. arms twisted and cops left and right over a hundred and eighty people of rested in one day when there's no place for people to come outside and to meet each other and talk about issues when that is so dangerous that you get such severe violence and police repression that nearly have a democracy for a year now occupy has fought for eradicating wealth inequality and social and

economic injustice to us give people jobs give people education get people help you you have to help the mess of new accountability for wall street bankers years after becoming a collapse. that was just still has people outraged expecting it may be naive but demanding it is and it starts with making a statement and that's what the people here are doing skeptics had hoped that occupy camps which once flourished over the west but now have cleared out would put an end to the movement after months of camping out here in the financial districts of claudy park during what seems to be the peak of occupy hundreds of protesters are back here on the first anniversary of the movement to show that it's very much alive. yet the lack of encampments protesters say was not an obstacle. we've really been able to focus on the issues that are important to us and that brought us out

here in the first place of economic disparity and political system that no the wrong longer represents people who don't have the money to compete and one of occupies key achievements so far triggering a national dialogue about what matters the majority of americans the occupy movement has kept a dialogue around fairness and equality and access to the good things that we all want that should be available to everyone and that dialogue is now in the public the occupiers intend to do their best to keep this dialogue alive like the civil rights movement it would say that you know it still has a long way to go. and it's been you know since before i was born i think occupy will have a similar history i think there's so much that has to be done that change is not going to be handed to us with a bow on it with no miracles just around the corner patience and perseverance they say are what will bring tangible change to the u.s.

and in our party. well news making headlines right now this one person's been killed in an explosion outside otel in damascus the bomb hidden in a black bag exploded just meters from where an opposition conference is being held now that attack happened as the free syrian army recently announced it's moving its command center from the turkish border into syria itself. and to separate so many insurgent attacks have hit the rocks capital it's claimed the lives of at least five a federal police general and his assistant were killed in a drive by shooting in western baghdad in the other instance and in a shiite neighborhood north of the capital there an explosive device placed under a minibus went off and killed three people wounded seven others. libyan authorities a vow to break up all illegal militias following the american ambassador is murder earlier this month the news came shortly after the country's powerful eastern militia group announced it was disbanded a few hours earlier security forces in protest. chased them from the city of benghazi and set fire to another militias compound. says apparently shoving

a probe into claims that former international monetary fund chief dominique strauss kahn took part in group rape now the main witness is thought to have drawn or allegations strauss kahn has been plagued by accusations which of cost him his career last may a new york hotel maid accused him of attempted rape he was later though cleared of all charges. up ahead the flight of the french of finding things getting a little bit too taxing. they're quite responsible for the prices they should be more than the rest and they have more meaning but instead the bigger it is a bailing out places where they don't have to share their piles of cash but no one else got that story much more after this break.

well. listen.

well again you're watching the weekly with me kevin when i hear live from moscow now resting deterred bahrain's majority show population from campaigning for equal rights they're out in force again this week in their efforts to try to convince the ruling western backed monarchy to end the repression but it didn't take long for the police to move in with tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse the crowds and detained dozens of protesters since their campaign took hold twenty months ago around one hundred people have died the authorities have also targeted key figures like opposition leader now bill read job who'd been jailed for taking part in

rallies and trying to stop support story smith investigates though the response from western nations remains strangely muted compared to the deep animosity towards others in the region. but i think they also find a light for the whole world on the nature of this conflict on the oppression and brutality of the regime one day no matter how long it takes that will be a day of reckoning for this dreadful regime martin arms about syria and they put their money where their mouth is giving five million pounds in so-called non-lethal aid to those trying to oust president after but less than a thousand miles away in bahrain there's another human rights crisis ongoing and on that he does remain conspicuously silent there g.m. has not spared any means of repression torture has not seized at all and that includes the one is of people who were just released in the last day or two.

as have not stopped. of course they use. as. is there well for. more than that is the kidnapping. few people from three or four beat them up torture them not inside the torture chambers but in farms in what they call the whose houses bahrain is home to a forgotten revolution ignored by the international community under reported in the media since february last year there have been almost daily anti-government protests in the resulting crackdown around a hundred have been killed with sixteen hundred in jail including sixty children and full of bahrain's most prominent human rights activists all that in a country of only one and a half million but the u.k. government says nothing longstanding historical connection between britain and

bahrain which was in fact holland in seventy one certainly the association with the u.s. fifth fleet is the oil problem and that's the banking problem along this is harmful to our interests because sooner or later all the gulf markets are going to disappear. and then the regimes that succeed them will not be friendly country which was there a process far from being condemned representatives of the bahraini regime have been a common sight at the u.k.'s major events this summer king how much was invited to the queen's diamond jubilee celebrations in may his eldest son visited david cameron at downing street and his youngest son who allegedly sanctioned the torture of dissident bahraini athletes was at the opening of london's olympic games but it goes deeper than that despite the brutal crackdown between july and september

last year the u.k. sold two point two million pounds worth of zero zero to the bahraini regime. seen shortly after that the u.k.'s most famous military training school accepted a three million pound donation from the king of bahrain and the metropolitan police is former assistant commissioner was appointed as an advisor on security to the regime with no objections from the u.k. government bahrain campaigners say it's ruining the government's credibility it's only when they stand up in public and say we oppose this torture we oppose these autocratic regimes and democracy only then will the british government have any credibility whatsoever and at this moment it has. the bahraini opposition and their supporters aren't calling for intervention but

they do want the international community to condemn the regime that they say is at least as oppressive as the syrian regime that western powers are so desperate to get rid of. r.t. london so france's richest residents are packing up the designer suitcases and taking their families and their wealth abroad was because the president's plan to hit them with a seventy five percent income tax. explains them how aiming at the highest earners to try to plug the budget gap might create a bigger hole instead. when the world's fourth richest men a frenchman bernard i know asked for belgian citizenship some of his compatriots took offense with one left wing french newspaper publishing this image with this headline the mayor of this area the brussels capital region has confirmed has indeed established residence here at the french tycoon denies his move had anything to do with french president francois want to impose a seventy five percent income tax on those earning above one million but many

suspect otherwise and the rich have become the subject of much discussion. they are quite responsible for this crisis they should pay more than the rest since they have more. because. it's the people who are responsible for the crisis. so. it depends on the rich bankers who contributed to the crisis. along to set to soak the rich even more as he struggles to raise the money to fill a thirty billion euro hole in the country's finances to tactical. against president sarkozy west who says that's because he was a president of the rich friends of yours income tax rates going up but on top of that. and then the top tax thing when.

we had the seventy four percent tax that's where really thinking about moving outside friends started with the move did go down well with everyone including some french taxpayers who fear having to foot the bill if the tax the rich strategy fails all their fears are well founded as businesspeople consider losing three quarters of their income across there simply unable to bear like thirty year old entrepreneur. he hasn't made the jump just yet but he says he may find himself with no choice is clearly that the course. it that's that's that's found. that's found a haven in france. which basically promotes stigmatize ation of success. so on and france is definitely worth its taxes to a certain extent but it's the don't work in my head any more. create

more value for others than that i do for myself with the implementation over seventy five percent and so on. i will relocate as an individual and become a tax it is an a for another country like belgium for example but belgians of already taken to the streets to protest against what they call the lack of morality of the rich who come to their country to avoid a certain taxes in france this case this super tax may affect as little as three thousand people out of sixty six million and if that elite minority continues heading for the door the deficit hole will only grow and a lot it may be forced to embrace the one policy he rejected throughout his election campaign a stereotype. tests are still here r t brussels. coming up the deep rooted to see this coming americans out of millions after this break.

a report on our. the french invasion of russia has started again after two hundred years up at the. sub jet the improve the polio has arrived from overseas to lead the army i have to really take my time to prepare myself to get it right i know we bloody bottle near moscow is going to start over. james brown will reveal the victor the soldier's a back to do it all again. but you know version twenty twelve on our t.v. .

show would be soon which brightened a few nibbles from fans to the christians. who screams don't talk t.v. don't come.

well into the. science technology innovation all the latest developments from around russia we've got the future covered. who had brought down wall street. hedge funds. back in two thousand and seven with the blues still in full swing my business partner e. o'connor attended this party just off wall street for traders under the age of thirty. it reeks of affluence. shiny tarnish the beautiful people. were like only clubs where only god the sums can be invested in complicated vehicles in secret outside the prying eyes of wall street regulators soon all of the traditional

investment firms have been who it is no wonder so many of these young people wanted in and at the top. and i personally spent five years in a private equity and then made the decision instead of going back to business school to move over to the public side so that was a conscious decision on my part i think most people probably get involved because there is an opportunity to move up the ranks and make more money at an earlier age in hedge funds and there isn't private equity which is the natural progression after a couple years in an investment bank program well if you're going to be in in the investment world the best way to and you're a good investor the best way to make money is to have a hedge fund because you get compensated much compensated much higher. hedge funds were being paid one percent of the assets and twenty percent of the profits in those areas so obviously that was the best way to make money if you were in a good insurance company a i.g. was a leading seller of credit derivatives so

a bank for example like goldman sachs would create a c.d.o. it would stick all kinds of subprime loans and packages packages or packages of them into a package and then it will go off to a i. and had a aaa rating credit rating in gold it would say you know what you take this package of junk we've just created. kind of insure you basically right. basically credit for it you got a much better rating than we do so our investors will buy it from you with that insurance you make money we make money everybody's happy former bank regulator william black told bill moyers this was all deliberate this stuff the exotic stuff that you're talking about was created out of things like liar's loans that were known to be extraordinarily bad and now we're getting triple a ratings now aaa rating is supposed to mean.
