1:02 pm
there has been exchanges. between the protesters and the border police when the protesters are throwing rocks at the israeli forces and the israeli forces were responding with us dung grenades and tear gas it kind of comes and goes in waves but of course the the palestinians are showing no signs of giving up at all of the of this this actually has the land to the demonstrations have been a tradition since one thousand nine hundred eighty six when they occurred for the first time and six palestinians were killed in a confrontation with the israeli police and israeli armed forces and it has been happening every here as it is happening today last year the protests were extremely violent and they usually turned more violent in gaza where the israeli police and military forces are generally using live ammunition and we know that at least one person has been wounded with live ammo earlier today in the gaza strip as for what's happening in the west bank where of course protesters being held by the palestinians all over the place there has been an exchange like i said stun
1:03 pm
grenades and tear gas we do not so we have asked the israeli forces whether they have used rubber bullets they have said no but palestinian media is reporting that there have been at least two wounds from from the use of rubber bullets by these really for says of course the palestinians are protesting against the israelis sorry palestinians are protesting against these really occupation of land especially against the israeli settlements which not only do not subside but they actually are growing especially over the past decade and especially under the government of benyamin netanyahu what's happening around you right now we see people running we've seen fires in the back describe what's going on around you as well. one i can tell you that that ban was actually stun grenade i'm sorry it's not it's not particularly dangerous they just kind of really literally stuns you and now we can see that the tear gas vehicle that has pulled up maybe we can turn around and you can see what's happening actually as we talk so we yeah we see the recalls which i have the. tear gas dispersed all units on them there. they're
1:04 pm
trying to get the protesters out as we as we speak the protesters are lined up on the street on the hill right above there and see they're using these special special i don't i don't know we want to call them the gadgets which with which they throw stones which are fly quite far i have to say majority of them are very young from even kids as young as ten to rather full grown men to about thirty they're not they're not showing any signs of giving up. israel is continually building new houses on palestinian land preventing the two sides from jumpstarting dialogue that could eventually lead them to an independent palestinian state where i ask you to vote on this it's the big story of the day we're covering there's ever we'd like to know what you think about it do you think there is any substantial substantive solution to this it's been going on for such a long time and this is what you've been telling us is a slight changes. nearly half of you is going up a couple of percent think no israel is going to absorb eventually
1:05 pm
a palestinian land you think that the majority of you think that's the way ok let's take a look at the other votes twenty seven percent say no until international powers stop using both as pawns we don't think will be a solution twenty four percent or rather but a quarter again that stayed pretty much the same for last couple of note neither side is interested in peace just a four percent yes regional pressure will force both sides into peace some point the question is when is that some point going to come still plenty of time to have your say dot com is the place to do it as well now most stuff it gets he spoke to he's a member of the palestinian legislative council he says it's israel there's putting the kybosh on any solution here let's take a listen in. this is not a conflict between two equal sides that don't have been able to find a way to solve the problem this is one side which is the israeli side occupying another for the longest occupation in modern history forty six years of occupation one side of pressing the palestinians i don't think there is any chance for peace
1:06 pm
process as long as we have this israeli government because what you have now inside the israeli government. ministers who are themselves settlers and this is the highest number of settlers who are sitting in the government they are also controlling the housing ministry and they are controlling the industry and commercial ministry and they are also controlling the finance committee in the israeli knesset and practically they control the policy regarding the occupied territories because also the minister of defense who is in charge of the army is also loyal to the settlers in the ality with such an israeli government it's impossible to move into a real peace process unless the punishment acts taking. a lot more news coming up for this half of me kevin i went on our team including in a few minutes time no letup in the egyptian opposition's outrage scuffles that the muslim brotherhood opponents and supporters of the north of left dozens injured
1:07 pm
while protesters in the capital are directing their anger at the prosecutor general we're talking about that shortly also as well talking about the fact there's no sign of improvement in the guantanamo hunger strike but a u.s. rights lawyer says the american public has very little awareness of what's actually happening inside can tell to interesting to hear that will be a funny more couple of minutes. soaks in now on cyprus cypriots with six figure savings and many pension is to now standing to see the bulk of the deposits wiped out europe's latest bailout terms that take an even wider cash grab the previously thought the central bank says up to two thirds of people savings above one hundred thousand euros will be drained in exchange for shit is in the collapsing banks and there are doubts whether the rest will never be repaid i spoke to risk advise that daniel wagner he says none of it will bring any relief. if the bank can pull a rabbit out of a hat and somehow make what appears to be near worthless shares somehow very
1:08 pm
valuable then i suppose these the positives have some hope that they'll be receiving some of their money back but at this point in time that doesn't look very likely and what's happening now is the rise of the far right in many parts of europe has only in some respects taken off it's been very strong in a country like greece with with golden dawn and in countries like switzerland where nearly a third of the popular vote in the most recent election went to the far right this type of action that we're seeing in greece in cyprus now and in greece is only going to fuel the fire is only going to prompt more people in my estimation to run to the far right to become more nationalistic and to become more closed minded about the options that they would consider for their future. never wants to sit idly by marx and stacy delve into the cypriot crisis later on today as well the kaiser report the share their lack of optimism over britain's latest plan for a miracle come back. what i told you about gold that is to say told you
1:09 pm
to buy gold four years ago right here in the kaiser report many of you asked but what if the government confiscates our gold maybe the more intelligent question you should have been asking was what if they seize your bank account when i talk to you about bitcoin that is to say i told you to buy bitcoin at five dollars per bitcoin you screeched what if they shut down the internet or maybe you should have been asking what if they shut down all the banks well if too late now the template has been set and while europe melts down let's see what the template holds for the united kingdom oh right here in old britannia where over my shoulder you can see the plank above the mayor's office where boris johnson the mayor may very well commit suicide. because report later on tonight situation america's most notorious detention comes

1:11 pm
know these facts anymore because there is no coverage in the united states the white house has said that it's still interested in closing guantanamo but i think it's delegated the issues of their people and it's also thrown up a tent and said well congress is stopping us from doing anything my former clients fozzy allo to and by is how condrey are innocent people who are wrongly held the president can get in and make sure that those people are released and sent home they don't pose a danger those people are desperate they want to die if they can't get out of guantanamo the u.s. courts have no authority to order a release of someone who is in guantanamo they are in the hands of the president the president has the authority to do it congress has said he could do it only with difficulty but he has the authority to do it he needs to step up to the plate and get it done i'm going to take an in-depth look at the plight of going ten of the detainees next on inside to break in

a punishment for the strike some of the prisoners are filing complaints and pleading for humanitarian aid for being denied a potable drinking water and heat yeah doesn't seem like that nice of a vacation getaway does it and hey robert johnson even though you think it most so absurdly awesome i'll bet you couldn't handle it for a week let alone the rest of your life without trial or charge on that note let's break that. more about the next. but the present seems of violence one skid marks the end of the week in egypt stones and five bombs left dozens injured in the northern cities of alexandria supporters and opponents of president morsi and the muslim brotherhood clashed in cairo protests around the prosecutor general's office demanding his resignation over what they call unlawful action against the opposition troops there. hundreds of garbage in front of the course teaches general
