and live from moscow this is our team glad to have you with us tens of thousands of people have marched through cities in ireland in a massive show of anger against severe austerity measures marco pietra pollie a financial advisor says ireland's situation is one of the most difficult in the e.u. and that dublin's current leadership in the bloc isn't likely to make things any better. i think it's going to be difficult to be honest. he's going through that again a campaign. difficult because then of course all the country. formerly . from the. from the europeans the irish. have ended up with. most countries to the bank for.
6:15 pm
a great deal. with the president. going to be able to. mount pressure or much influence. in. europe because the power remains of the germans. in europe and. the german accent i think you have integration or you have a breakup of. the problems. speaking with a story angry crowds on the streets of ireland may spoil the mood of e.u. leaders as they celebrate and historic a budget deal cutting the block spending for the first time ever now it's the european parliament's turn to have its final say on the agreement and the m.e. piece looks set to block the budget plan after a secret vote in what is seen as a revolt against e.u. leaders economist james may weigh weighs in. constitutionally they're well within
6:16 pm
their rights to reject the thing and send it back and have another go at writing this now whether they actually do that will probably depend on the fine print and the budgets are already present when you parliament to said he would be able to support the stealing and the heads of one of the major groups in the parliament the socialist group said that they would like them to be supported so it's going to be a rocky ride i think this budget over the next few months cameron's right to talk about this being like a reduction in a credit card limits and of course you can have your credit card limit reduced and still spend on spending more money now that's almost certainly what's going to happen to britain over the next few years the amounts that britain is expected to pay into the main e.u. fund will increase as a result of increased payments to two new member countries so he's going to pretend that this will show how britain can still be a force in europe how we can push the rest of europe around discourses over the fact of course that he wouldn't have got anywhere in this without the support of language mirthfully in particular so he can he can try to push that line that you

6:18 pm
as the party the crowds marched in the capital tunis shouting anti french slogans and accusing the former colonial ruler of interfering in its politics this comes a day after the funeral of an opposition politician was marred by clashes with protesters blending but government and the police for his death violence erupted near the cemetery and spread to anti regime rallies in the city causing security forces the fire tear gas and make arrests and despite authorities managing to keep huge crowds away from the city center for now author and activist rosie monti believes the unless that may take a turn for the worse. to use is ensuring a profound crisis a crisis of the credibility of the existing new arrangements for holding and a massive crediting of the way in which they have operated i think there are signs that this could easily disintegrate into some kind of civil war going to hopefully it won't happen and we remain to watch to see how be popular movements organize to
6:19 pm
prevent this one of those frightening thing is the amount of external support for example by the qatari government of the right wing fundamentalists and it remains to be seen whether the present government will take any action against these terrorist groups and it has been almost two years since anti regime protests broke out in another country involved in the arab spring bahrain there the government and the opposition have finally agreed to resume dialogue artie's oleksiak shafiq he looks into how dissent is being gang in that country. if you look through any pro-government newspaper in bahrain you'll get an impression that the government has nothing to hide the news of an uprising of the opposition is dominating the front page and if you look through it you'll see other stories about the political discourse in the country the country's information minister insists bahrain has no
6:20 pm
problems with people speaking out what it is if in freedom of expression are english very high because it is guaranteed by the constitution moreover there is a law to be issued soon that further guarantees yes we have a problem related to banning so much zines but that's to protect bahrain from six here in africa problems in violence and not any other reason. but this is what happened when we tried several opposition websites having looked through these pages later we did not notice any extremist overtones and so you see from bahrain center for human rights believes the government is deliberately attempting to silence views different to its own center for human rights which i work for website is a blog we have almost more than four hundred website out of the most of them are human rights. political website although of certain beheaded our block we have only
6:21 pm

6:25 pm
growed sometimes to what it attracts you they're. going to say. would you ever consider protesting topless for a reason yeah what would be the reason. you would go topless for that yeah would you do it well maybe one month but do you think french girls would do it more often than american girls i think so why is that what's wrong with a kind of crazy it would be a way to get he was attention but i personally wouldn't do it maybe someone knows and i mean do you think that it would be little it was or help because. i don't know if you're doing much it's will bring more awareness i guess people will look so it's not what protesting is all about. the lead i'm a lady the bottom line is going topless is a sure fire way to bring attention to your cause so ladies you might want to consider that the next time you suit up for your big rally.

6:27 pm
terrorism no it is to keep male and female coworkers separate saudi arabia is pretty infamous in the west for its laws regarding the sexes and their segregation activists always want to go to other countries to convince them to adopt western attitudes that deep down in their hearts they secretly want but often they miss things like the fact that it was saudi women who ask for the segregation feeling uncomfortable while buying products from men according to a.f.p. you know some people in countries like saudi arabia or north korea might actually like living a radically different lifestyle and even if they don't like living that way well it is their job to fix it not by some sort of western intervention when i want to live in either of those countries not really do i want to live in a country with the saudi arabian concept of gender not really but part of having freedom of choice means being able to choose things that i may think are backwards or illogical you know let them have the walls in the stores if they want western civilization you know if it's truly the end all of human evolution then they'll
6:28 pm
take those walls down eventually on their own but that's just my opinion. welcome to the kaiser report i max kaiser oh what a wicked web we weave when first. first we practice to deceive said sir walter scott about the global derivative markets match or at least he could have the deception at the heart of the derivatives market is of course that risk can be separated from reward and once removed this risk ten be disappeared like so many bearded men and little children in the war on terror who've gone sat disappear go poof gone disappeared. but the first law of thermal derivatives
6:29 pm
says that risk can only be managed never destroyed and so because of this practice to deceive we have a wicked web of libel rigging price fixing gold suppressing central bankers atop a pyramid of algo grifting client account stealing risk shifting banking scoundrels who have caused the global financial meltdown stacey max kaiser yes we are all trapped in this weekend web and you can see that in places like ireland where we were stuck in this web of deceit that they've created of all these derivatives and projects and debts that nobody can move without getting stuck further into this web of deception but when these deceivers get caught one of the things in a classic con is to try to blame the victim so let's look at some of these headlines regarding these deceivers and now that they've been caught s. and p. lawsuit portrays cd.
