the f.b.i. is accused of failing to warn american occupy activists that there was a plot. despite knowing about plans to assassinate u.s. citizens. for russia. is now officially a russian citizen is coming after a. country. british teachers say they feel the government is against them. to dramatically impact the education of future generations.
10:01 am
global news twenty four seven this is life with me rule research moscow welcome to the program. it's been revealed that the f.b.i. knew of a plot to assassinate occupy wall street activists but didn't alert them to the potential danger by the bureau was instead spying on members of the movement branding them as criminals and domestic terrorists all the details on this important. 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 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.
10:02 am
military and private corporations all cooperated together to monitor and investigate occupy wall street protesters as quote domestic terrorists and quote criminals now the more shocking revelation the headline of this story is that reportedly buried deep within the government. mentions of a plan to use snipers to assassinate occupy protesters and 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 partnership for civil justice fund receive 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
10:03 am
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. would neglect to tell occupy protesters u.s. citizens about an assassination plot surrounding them. what is more important reporting right now the f.b.i.'s mission is to protect and defend americans and i'd like us milla an independent journalist who was at the occupy protests but she says the bureau was only siding with the so-called one percent of society this coronation between the f.b.i. the department of homeland security and corporations and 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
10:04 am
terrorists and now how people who are part participating in peaceful protests 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 that's you know as arky prime might say the one percent. they're watching on t.v. and french movie stars are hard to produce has been granted russian citizenship to decide to say or of want to his home country and good with the time to ramp up tuxes for the mega rich these are going to go explains what made him turn to russia . this is a russian passport and it seems that pretty soon it will have an exact same little book of course with a different name and a different picture now this is kind of shocking news for a lot of the public especially in russia but if you really delve into the story then it shouldn't come as
10:05 am
a surprise. french citizenship and has moved to belgium where he apparently has real estate at his disposal and therefore he's been granted residency in belgium all of this stems from this law that the longest trying to push through in france which will see french citizens who earn more than one million euros a year pay seventy five percent of their earnings to taxes now you are deployed yeah has issued an open letter saying that he as a french citizen has paid more than one hundred forty five million euros throughout his working life and he feels that that is actually enough and he's also enjoyed a longstanding friendship with the russian president and he did joke at one point that he is considering moving to russia or montenegro a lot of people have taken that remark quite life heartedly except for the russian president who said that. is in need of such assistance that he is ready to sign the appropriate documents and it seems like he has actually signed these documents and
10:06 am
we may be soon seen. as a frequent guest in russia as well as possibly in belgium the actor himself has said that he considers himself to be the citizen of the world. reporting right now the education of britain's future generation is being put at risk by a dramatic drop in morale amongst the nation's teachers and they say the government is stifling the students or alternately having to pay the price earlier my colleague spoke to a correspondent laura smith to find out exactly. 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 at continual criticism and interference from the government they said and the figures are quite staggering actually fifty five percent of teachers
10:07 am
surveyed said that morale 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 education policies of the government's a specialist schools free schools were taking education in the right direction in this country and just but 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 here. 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 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 teaches a saying that if you fail a test age five as
10:08 am
a huge impact on your future development makes you feel like a failure from an incredibly young age also trying to change the exam system again introducing a thing called back where just a few core subjects would be examined differently from other subjects and people 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 anymore. 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 who's the general secretary of the national union of teachers and she talked about that in a 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
10:09 am
a very difficult time at the moment and if families lose but if it in london for example that's going to be a huge problem with housing benefit cuts that have to move schools and of course you know family income drops just to clean which it has had lots of places children are coming to school hungry they haven't had first don't 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 they want changes no 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's of course has a huge impact on future generations of children and in fact the national union of teachers is not ruling out striking unions of course never rule out striking
10:10 am
christie told me specifically that they don't rule it out. the government is attacking pay and conditions and in fact just before christmas mike who gave the education secretary was reported in newspapers having put the department of education on a war footing with teachers which is not going to help going forward. correspondent laura smith reporting right now the french capital suffers a string of robberies just a bit later on here when we report how jewelry shop owners are raising blaming the break ins on tough economic times. such a recent neighborhood and israel separation we look at what life is like in an abandoned district and more for the short break. gridlock. to build.

thanks for joining us here on artsy today i'm. at the dip in the euro zone's fortunes has led to a startling. robberies in france a gold and jewelry shop so the main targets the people working them getting more nervous every single day and this report. until a month ago this was one of many jewelry shops on a quiet street in central paris after a gruesome attack by armed robbers it never reopened for business having kicked robbers out of his store a fifty two year old metal worker tried to chase them down into the street into the parking lot where there motorbike stood 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
10:13 am
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 a 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 jeweler say they are scared to do their job now. we had an attack on our store last year and recently a woman working in 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
10:14 am
say experts in the midst of the eurozone crisis the price is going up all the time . twelve years of a continues to rise of the price of gold. it's a small so when you. he's not so difficult because it's something you could put a bucket. for people. who. shops this is one of the consequence negative consequence of. a lot of product increased quite despite so much gold legal and stolen openly on sale experts say this is seriously damaging the market private buyers are springing up and buying the precious metal at an unregulated price the police created a special unit to deal with there but the problem may only fade away when the
10:15 am
financial dorm world does alexy russia r.t. reporting from paris. all right just turn a quarter past the hour moscow time president obama has signed the so-called fiscal cliff bill into law preventing the u.s. economy from sliding back into recession and deal remove the most urgent threat but only delayed the toughest decisions and the law rushed through by the congress prevented deep spending cuts and income tax hikes which technically took effect at midnight on january the first income tax will only rise for the wealthy but almost all americans will still end up paying more in federal tax law makers proponent decisions on the deficit and the debt ceiling for two months praising themselves for saving the economy from going over the cliff but some economists think there's a little for them to truly be happy about. congress took the u.s. government the u.s. economy hostage and they let their hostage go about an hour several hours after the
10:16 am
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 and addition to edge this has reputational damage the united states as well as really damage the united states because all the uncertainty at all the negativity over the last really ten months almost as this dragged out and this deal violated all the basic promises to both basic constituencies so nobody wanted to be responsible for a deal and everybody was much more interested in grandstanding and talking ideological purity than solving the nation's problems it was an expiring 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 now have which are thirteen hundred dollars more
10:17 am
probably on average per year so nobody really wants to talk about the face plan that they executed here they want to talk about half twist on their way down that they did not how they landed on their face not their feet. well talk about are drawing attention to themselves once again a french magazine publisher is a comic book for you of the prophet muhammad mocking islam is found this comes just months after a blasphemous amateur film sparked violence from muslims all around the world details on that analyses website. the echoes of the tragedy a six year old american elementary school student has been suspended. pointed it at a student and said now. there has been a fresh wave of protests in bahrain to mark twenty thirteen with unrest now just over a month away from hitting the two year mark several arrests have also been reported with police again resorting to tear gas and they're climbing down on public
10:18 am
gatherings at the opposition's demanding a transition to democracy and the resignation of the prime minister who's held his position of over four decades but. recently jailed two policemen for beating a protester to death back in two thousand and eleven that is and cut sentences for several activists who took part in that year's uprisings human rights campaigners however say all political prisoners must be released and claim no intention of carrying out reforms up to eighteen people have been killed and thousands detained since february two thousand and eleven an activist asked my daughter which claims security forces from abroad are contributing to the violence by attacking us. security forces who are working for the ministry of interior and mahane are practicing a lot of buy in ends and a lot of violations to human rights when confronting when pro-democracy protests and behaving
10:19 am
a lot of protests and it took place in many different videos and areas around behaving and all of them all of them got a. crack they were a crackdown by that by the security forces and behaving who are most to be and not by me and they are working and an end of any super interior and if they were brought from different countries foreign countries like pakistan and jordan and syria and in the village where i live and sit it out it was tear gas excessive you by security forces and i could see security forces running down the streets by my white house and shooting randomly inside the houses it movement was completely peace said but after witnessing that west that was during and position to or that this situation and behaving or there have been emotion in bahrain it is unlike to what is what they are it claiming like they are encouraging human rights
10:20 am
in different countries arab countries but when it comes to bahrain they use double standards so the protestants 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 them why in it security forces from entering them there is 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. before we get to the artery wall dr let's turn our attention now to syria particularly the northern part of the country where heavy fighting is being reported by rebel fighters stormed a strategic in the province there now even claim to have the capability of producing chemical weapons and are threatening to use them the u.n. says more than sixty thousand people have now been killed in the ongoing conflict and some experts say the lack of dialogue will only lead to even more deaths if. a
10:21 am
peace negotiation and peace initiative presented by brahimi last russia is not accepted by the opposition at the moment situation in syria will be escalating the opposition is the party who is. refusing any negotiation with the government one position have chemical weapons this is a very dangerous and will be very serious matter and i think. they don't have. all the legal bounding limits to use it the danger of now is to be used and then blame the government to initiate some kind of international response against the syrian government this is a 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

skyrocketing. because they are cut off from israel and from the palestinians a neighborhood which is part of jerusalem lies beyond israel's massive separation barrier a cab is the only safe haven for many mixed families but its isolation means the people there have no one to rely upon but themselves artie's paul asli went to meet . 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 have 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 but lived like that for four years well come to no man's land
10:25 am
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 arc up 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 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 if 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 checkpoints 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 residents 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 the services and the state 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 them is really going. on in me and arabs in jerusalem so we have to carry that because we have our right we will be the text of everything and the suffering from that 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
