2:03 am
was completely peace said but after witnessing that west that was during and position to or that this is to ration and behaving or there have been emotion in bahrain it is unlike to what is what they are it claiming they are encouraging human rights in different countries arab countries but when it comes to the hand they use double standards so the protesters here inviting old though they are those radical protestors they are the minority and not the majority but they are using such methods to prevent that violent security forces from entering their their and their religious and attacking on armed civilians and children like we witnessed and the big you have off of the four year old child being attacked by security forces with tear gas canisters and could know was all going to a website for more opinions and the novice's about the protests in bahrain just go to all tied up call. it's been revealed that the f.b.i.
2:04 am
knew of applause to assassinate members of the occupy wall street movement but didn't alert them to the potential danger it follows revelations that the bureau was spying on accidents from the start of the protests and even branded them domestic terror and a criminal threat archies were in a fortnight has the details for us. well it's not clear yet why the f.b.i. would neglect to tell activists that there was a potential assassination plot surrounding them what we do know is that new documents obtained by the partnership for the civil justice fund a u.s. human human and civil rights advocacy organization have revealed that the u.s. the f.b.i. the department of homeland security the u.s. military and private corporations all cooperated together to monitor and investigate opic occupy wall street protesters as quote domestic terrorists and quote criminals now the more shocking revelation the headline of this story is that
2:05 am
reportedly buried deep within the government. mentions of a plan to use snipers to assassinate occupy protesters in the movement's leaders in various cities throughout the country these alleged plans were supposed to be taking place in the fall of two thousand and eleven now the names of the groups or individuals involved in the alleged plot are redacted from the f.b.i. documents but what critics say is clear is that the f.b.i. never alerted any one of the potential any of the potential victims that their lives could possibly be in danger or that there's any threat surrounding them the partnership for civil justice fund received the f.b.i. documents on december twenty second so this is fairly new information and this was after they filed a request under the freedom of information after now many civil rights attorneys previously have accused the f.b.i. of functioning as a de facto intelligence arm for u.s. corporations during the occupy wall street movement and especially as it grew bigger however some critics say they never ever suspected that the f.b.i.
2:06 am
would neglect to tell. citizens about an assassination plot surrounding them. on the locust minute independent journalists who were also the. as the f.b.i. is siding with the so-called one percent of us society. this coronation between the f.b.i. the department of homeland security and corporations in the new york stock exchange really showed who they're serving it's it's not the government in this case is these corporations in the financial sector and it's certainly not the people the f.b.i. is really just targeting ordinary people going about their daily lives as potential terrorists and now people who are part participating in peaceful protest are also categorized as domestic terrorists so i think the f.b.i. is really picking and choosing who it categorizes as the type of civilians it wants to protect and at this point this really shows that you know as arky prime might
2:07 am
say the one percent the quality of educational britain's future generations could bear trace teachers moron of england and wales has hit a dangerous new love and our london correspondent laura smith told my colleague kevin zero and why over seventy percent of teachers believe education in the u.k. is on the wrong policy the national union of teachers the biggest teachers' union in the u.k. has commissioned a survey which says that morale among teachers has dropped dramatically they talked about the highs and lows of life in the classroom incredibly low morale but also frustrated continual criticism and interference from the government they said and the figures are quite staggering actually fifty five percent of teachers surveyed said that more all was either very low and that's up from forty two percent just eight months ago so it's really on a declining trend seventy seven percent said that they didn't feel that specific
2:08 am
education policies of the government so specialist schools free schools were taking education in the right direction in this country just five percent felt that this current coalition government impact on the education system was positive and had more specific about what the teachers don't like about the government's policies. well there are specifics that they don't like they don't like this continuing interference they say that every new government that comes in completely revamp its the national curriculum and the education system from what it was before say that constantly on the back foot trying to get used to new systems there's a new test now where children aged just by are tested on phonics some children obviously fail that test and teachers are saying that if you fail a test age five as a huge impact on your teacher development makes you feel like a failure from an incredibly young age they're also trying to change the exam system again introducing a thing called the back where just a few core subjects would be examined differently from other subjects and people
2:09 am
who are in the arts and sports and all those subjects that you really liked when you were at school say that that you know children aren't going to take those subjects any more there certainly is you know teachers talk about how cuts in general have affected families and the students that they teach they say that families have poorer than they children have less access to technology at home they have parents you can't help them necessarily with their schoolwork and in fact i talked to christine loh who's the general secretary of the national union of teachers and she talked about that the general science what the government is doing wrong is its whole approach to austerity because one of the things that's obvious to teachers is that great swathes of children and their families are having a very difficult time at the moment and if families lose benefit in london for example that's going to be a huge problem with housing benefit cuts the has to move schools and of course you know family income drops just to clean which it has had lots of places children are
2:10 am
coming to school hungry they haven't had first they may not go and get a meal in the evening so in a general sense there are really quite big problems and the upshot of that is that seventy six percent of teachers surveyed said that austerity measures will have a negative impact on family or british teachers will get nervous about reform yet they want changes not to improve the situation is what will make the difference at minimal cost to them. well cost is of course the issue they want fewer and slow reforms they say they want to be consulted more and they say that they don't feel trusted as professionals and that of course has a huge impact on future generations of children and in fact the national union is not ruling out striking unions of course never rule out striking. told me specifically that they don't rule it out as the government is attacking pay and conditions and in fact just before christmas michael gave the education secretary was reported in newspapers having put the department of education on
2:11 am
a war footing with teachers which is not going to help going forward. as the u.n. says the syrian conflict death toll has now reached sixty thousand the rebels warned that prepared to use chemical weapons and the insurgent army claims they now have the capability to produce chemical arms and our website unleash them on assad loyalists this comes amid a little later spate of violence and after seventy people one of the killed one alleged government is trying to hit a fuel station to mask the subtypes the top international peace envoy to syria was the country faces help unless a system is brokered some aspects but the lack of progress on the west. if. peace negotiation and peace initiative presented by brahimi russia is not accepted by the opposition at the moment the situation in syria will be escalating saw the opposition is the party who is. refusing any negotiation
2:12 am
with the government one position have chemical weapons this is a very dangerous and with a very serious matter and i think. they don't have. all of the legal binding limits to not to use it the danger now is to be used and then blame the government for it to initiate some kind of international response against the syrian government this is dangerous position and i think that this is what the syrian government should have always been saying that these two undermine the syrian government and two to get some kind of international attention international support especially from the nato on the powers of the west. going for gold to the french couple's been hit by a string of all robberies. had raised the breaking economic times this story.

2:15 am
parking lot where they're still in the criminals turned around and fired a shot at him he died right in the middle of the street in broad daylight. the murder shocked france with the country's interior ministry fearing it would not be the last incident of its kind. we must not regard these attacks as well these individuals are well trained and they can and will use force and weapons against the employees of jewelry stores. since france plunged into financial crisis armed robberies have become ever more frequent criminals not only attack stores but they also strip people of their jewelry in the street in some instances they've gone as far as digging graves up to steal golden teeth from corpses to sell jewelry stores private jura say they are scared to do their job now. we had an attack on our store last year and recently a woman working in
2:16 am
a neighboring grocery store was taken hostage the robbers thought she worked for us we had to install a special armor door and cameras but we still feel like we're in a war zone. diamond rings and gems are a hit with the robbers but it's gold which is the biggest draw it's easy to explain say experts in the midst of the eurozone crisis the price is going up all the time . twelve years of the continues rise of the price of gold. it is small so when you fall for he's not so difficult because it's something you could put in your pocket it's easy for people . to. be shops this is one of the consequence negative consequence of. a lot of products increased quite despite so much gold legal and stolen openly on sale

further increase in the flow of american water to countries in the area where several territorial disputes recently reached a boiling point independent journalist james call that says the exports trick could backfire on washington. what we can see is really just a return to a very old imperial strategy building up bogeymen in order to then create the sails to to combat those boogeyman so it's a very old strategy it was identified by need by president eisenhower in his farewell address in one nine hundred sixty when he talked about the military industrial complex and we here we are half a century later with the exact same strategy at play and before it was the communists then there was the terrorist threat and now there's china and that threat so i think it creates a situation where the economics may be what's driving this in the pivot towards asia pacific but that in turn creates geopolitical realities so that for example china now sees all of these arms sales going to korea and taiwan and japan and some
2:19 am
of the u.s. allies in the region and they respond with a military armaments of their own so it's a kind of self-perpetuating. prophecy that fulfills itself by the economics of the situations asian has its eye on what's happening with taiwan and the effort to retrofit the f. sixteen fleet of taiwan but also the japanese x. ray to expand radar for example that just recently has is being expanded and worked on i think has to be seen as a threat by china as well so i think definitely we're going to see an increase in tensions and that will probably create more situations like we saw in the past year with the sink island dispute between japan and china. of america stop raising agencies say congress hasn't done enough to remove the risk of another credit downgrade even despite the deal to delay going over the fiscal cliff moody's and standard and poor's are calling on lawmakers to urgently come up with a plan to slash the growing national debt which has gone over its sixteen point

four trillion dollars limit and the house of representatives approved a senate bill to avoid a chain of events which experts say could plunge america back into recession thanks to live tax hikes and massive budget cuts have been put on hold at least for the next two months while congress. this next moves the bail also raises tax rates on high anis for the first time in two decades and financial analyst max fried wolf says the becoming on capitol hill has the country's reputation at stake. congress took the u.s. government the u.s. economy hostage and they let their hostage go about an hour several hours after the hostage deadline and they now would like to be congratulated for letting their hostages go however since they took the hostages it's hard to be excited in addition to which this has reputational damage the united states as well as really damage the united states because all the uncertainty it all the negativity over the last really ten months almost as this dragged out this deal violated all the basic promises to both basic constituencies so nobody wanted to be responsible for
2:21 am
a deal that everybody was much more interested in grandstanding and talking ideological purity than solving with nation's problems it was an expiry of the tax cuts why are we hearing much about it because they're focusing on the few successes some real some imagined and that is not an area of success and it highlights that when the republican party says no new taxes at all they mean new taxes and including new taxes for people who can afford it and when the democratic party says no new taxes for anyone making under two hundred fifty thousand they mean no new taxes except for the new taxes that you know which are thirteen hundred dollars more probably on average per year so nobody really wants to talk about the face plan that they executed here they want to talk about the past twist on their way down what they did not how they landed on their face not their feet it's one of the most divided parts of a divided land in the northern area of east jerusalem israel's huge separation will means many palestinian families have no choice but to live upon its point to see it
2:22 am
when they had to find out what effect it has on everyday life. israelis cannot live in the west bank and most palestinians cannot live in israel which leaves those israelis and palestinians who want to share a home out in the cold. one hundred my husband this from happen i'm from jerusalem i found work in jerusalem and used to live there with my children but without my husband because he is not allowed to live there he couldn't visit me even once at the end of each week i would go to have been to visit him we lived like that for four years well come to no man's land a neighborhood that is technically part of jerusalem but in reality is on the palestinian side of the security wall that israel has built some two thousand mixed couples live here. the problem of cooper aka is that so many people are immigrating to the area because they have to so in four years we've had a growth of thirty five thousand people it's become more crowded than gaza. so hair
2:23 am
and stuff one came to live here six years ago with their three children but life in the village is far from ideal the schools are overcrowded garbage is collected only once a week and there's little fresh water so one is old and sick and basic health services are hard to come by. my husband and my daughter don't have israeli i.d.'s and they can't pass through the checkpoint any special permission which is very difficult to get on the other hand i enter my children have israeli id we have a lot of problems far curve is in north jerusalem eighty two percent of the land belongs to jerusalem eighteen percent to the west bank where students pay taxes to the israeli government but because the area lies outside the israeli wall israel is slow to provide services the municipality says that many of the people living in far cub are doing so illegally and so it's not obliged to provide them with services it also says that the security wall makes it more complicated to carry out
2:24 am
the services at this. needs to give it more money there have been small victories though residents took the municipality to court and one garbage collection at least for now should be more frequent this is them in a bubble and from the instability that they deal with us as an enemy and arabs in jerusalem so we have to chant that because we have our right we will be the text of everything and the suffering from their phones and internet access are limited because palestinian companies are not allowed to install lines in a so-called israeli area and because the israeli police won't come here law enforcement is scarce. and. there are poorly built goods like this one the goal is to make them not part of jerusalem to make them fall under the jurisdiction of the palestinian authority and living in the middle of it all are couples like so hard and soft they nearly want to be together but politics and division are making that more and more difficult every day police here r.t.
