what's this worth right now that's worth a little over two million dollars two million dollars right i touch it certainly aha this is a really nice so having. last years it made people more worried about intentional a major crisis and they have always been judged the stock market has just closed there has been a massive sell the street hasn't seen two days this bad as it's been a global bloodbath urgent mission has to be getting this economy growing faster actual discussed as recession oppression you name it things like biting cold to me seem like common sense. there's a movement brewing in america today that seeks to restore the gold back dollar gold is selling at a record high dollar store to one thousand dollars an ounce of gold prices jumped

to the highest in the early eleven weeks now is the time to retrieve your coin collections in jury box wondering where they got so scared they were ok with gold they want people to be afraid they are. gold keeps going up and up living by a sense that the world is not a black and gold concern though people say the price of gold set a brand new record this week in the hundred dollars an ounce ounces of minus and joining a masonic gold rush a destructive goal for the poorest of the poor throughout west africa a lossing diplomatic golden gets attention is turning us to will be next swept up in mining fever.

you know that the miners eat thanks to our gold medalist but in ways we either thanks to our lent me most who depend on corn beans and one other earth gives us. the market here so you and i think that i am one of the people affected by the mining company and the truth is where witnesses to what has been happening most of our wells and springs have dried out because of the drilling and the time know what if you wanted it them be and also because they use the water to wash the goal it's not all.

you. but you don't see anything where it. is them or where the resistance here in sun is i mean again for many reasons isn't that it is where fighting to defend our land is that allowed to defend our water to defend our health. and this is why the company has denounced us so much. are. we going to go live won't be fucked then will say i have seven children i am twenty one years old. i am married. and that's my husband and it must be else who has been married for twenty years he said

if you work i work here in your house yes so you have seven jobs. and this is one yes. when it was day yet i like to tell you my life story but i think the whole world already knows it. i. simply just in our world view. is that this way of creating an economy of making money is completely illogical it's illogical because it destroys nature

beautifully learnt the lesson if you destroy nature you basically destroy a person's soul three and what follows is the other end of the day is that the person's life is destroyed and a little someone we're very close to nature and means a great deal to us which we are parts of the whole song was when told. of the conflict unfolding in the highlands started when the one tiny a mining company attempted to transport an enormous metal cylinder it to san marcos b. and they pan-american highway. like that i think i think it. is disentangled in a sneeze or some of the scenes from what happened yesterday in the west of the country in the mid to going up when about one thousand police officers and three hundred members of the army confronted hundreds of farmers from various villages in that region. it's reminiscent of the armed internal conflict in the one nine hundred eighty s. canada for example. in

central america. has gone through real or more as kids with the worst of the. hundreds of thousands of people were murdered and disappeared and million of them were displaced from their homes where they stand up against the modern army one hundred thousand died in one thousand nine hundred two the year the general rios montt mount a scorched earth policy and really devastated hundreds of my and villages is the most in that we are in a wall that we have been saying that. is marvelous that odds we need to change. and the chains consists precisely all through me when the imposing your will over us reagan was praising the worst killer as it is the most a few sort of terms or rios montt real smart and close ties to the united states

who gave in to fight against the guerrillas and the wounds that were inflicted by that conflict to continue to fester clearly and that has contributed to the current situation of the repression of of any type of economic change really created the kind of poison politics that they have and this links to the life story because everybody tones dealt with these birds and you can't say they're responsible for the rios montt slaughter of it they're benefiting from the structures that were left in place after those many years of service area repression. even. when the municipality some english or con here. which is just sort of on top of the whole court my news so we're going to follow the road down by the mine

visited with. this. idea dora. certainly has a legitimate. well first of all in defense of her rights what she is defending is her land she has refused to sell her plot of land to court because they were hoping to expand their mind through her part of land. to do so long as you've been with theodora about thirty five years now of marriage yes. no i didn't you work in the mine then they offer you a job no no no. no because we didn't want to have anything to do with the miners the madonnas a saloon of these people are destroying everyone's health around here. i am involved in the resistance so is my husband she says it's great that to

a fight but how do we get them to leave. i ask god for them to leave keep him i want us to be left in peace you know. at the time my granddaughter is used to live with us now from. the one hand i cry when they think about her future. when what will happen to her if they kill me. yes the sun these are the company's power lines when i saw that they had put these poles on my land i was very angry because i didn't give them permission and i am therefore. we have a custom you say where you say and you keep your word. but here they took advantage. and i didn't one mining i didn't run anything. what i

wanted was for them to take out the poles nothing more. we just took a wire and threw it over the cable to cut off the power this was the car and after we cut off their tricity the company sent the police. as opposed to see a t.v. show like this we're here to learn about guatemala suppose this becomes a trip where we're learning actually about no kid in the united states historically and on an ongoing basis today these are parts of our role they decided before the destruction that they would kill to day to day basically closed off about. housing for the mine workers some of the prices there are some of the take the high that over there and then there's the whole complicated processing plant holds here it's

a very low concentration you know you're probably holding gold when you pick up this earth right here this is the cheapest form of gold mining the most destructive because you're getting one gram of cool for one time some of the estimates are one gram of coal for seven tons and because of the cost of building your nationally because of the low cost of the money operation it's worth their while to just clear cut the whole region will they have an endless mind and say there's no doubt that the gold is as far as the eye can see. to the big gold guns are teaming up gold corpus announced an eight point six billion dollar us friendly takeover of glamorous gold it will be the lowest cost fastest growing unheard school morning company in the world the goldcorp glamorous combination would pump out about three million ounces of gold a year making it the fifth biggest producer in the world and in terms of market cap it would rank number three we just reported earnings they were up seventy two percent year on year while we saw the gold price go up thirty percent so very

pleased with that exposure that we provide to gold you have a prediction of where gold goes from here for the next let's say here i would say it could certainly get to two thousand dollars thousand dollars an ounce and there are four hundred ounces in these gold bars i'm just going to tell that they're probably you know what it's almost you having to tell how much is this what about thirty five. that's they don't have a. pledge it was terrible they come up very hard to make a pledge again a little longer here a lot longer than that had sat with the earthquake there. let's play. the i'm. just

a. little a. little. let's. listen. a little. much of your advice is centered around the negative aspects of american culture example mindful eating social even now voiding of snacks how much of an influence do you think this american culture has on the rest of the incredible they succeeded two things with me and the world the snake and the with the food they did all the countries worldwide.

if you. know opportunity. start to construct you're a. bit give don't want to be gangstas you don't want to be. they don't want to blow with the time that a kid came be we can see. you just needs a hundred dollars and i was in the hood. thirty round clip. but i said. i don't want to die i just really do not want to die young young a. ball garion is an romanians are here to bring on doorsteps across the u.k.

according to british tabloids the same tabloids of course failed to mention the j.p. morgan banks there's a been deprecated on our financial system for years and then collecting big big bonuses from shaking down and scalping the population do the tabloids report this no. more than the twenty fourth jena lympics. what's this place like and why is this so special as the russian resort prepares to welcome the world power the games shaping the city's present and future life so it will bring it this is the moment they're reporting from a very cold and snowy windy mountainous stuff yet beyond the olympics but . today on our team. with an oath on their lips and muscles and all but men with greed in our hearts ready to break them backs to sell their very souls

for gold in their train and here. i love. what is still mcgill you know where to go for the price of gold today is that fifteen hundred eighty dollars by going for some twenty bucks now i don't know as a scarce i never understood gold quite frankly it's this item it isn't all that useful but it's valuable because people assign it a value why is the price of gold so high. demand global demand do you think oldest money. know at the end of the day why gold you know it's gold because it's gold because it's gold because it's gold you can't look into this deeply or the whole thing just called setting good for nothing so. why should we be mining gold at all. we already have huge amounts of mind to gold in the world of the value of the only place we have to live of the water that we need to survive

it's not compared to any gold we're not going to eat gold we're not going to bait. we're not going to drink. you offered me the choice i'm looking at some sixty seven foot. of gold i'm looking at it all day and the alternative that was to have all the farmland of the country for process a quick. to get a piece of metal to stick and of walt so we can say we own it. we're destroying the very future that we want to that we're trying to secure all the litany of arms and violations to get this gold out of the ground and then you take this boat and you take it home to your country and you bury it under the ground. in a crowd in a british under it but made with their back home and almost nobody came in the event that doesn't californian australian on the way back. i know it's good

estimated so. on behalf of montana explorer dora and goldcorp spam we are committed to being in san miguel issue. with a vision here a long term vision of moving people we feel part of this beautiful municipality we feel like part of the family of san miguel ishtar cried today that has been confirmed plenty other moment that we're planning right now on exploiting this area . and we're going to transport minerals on the roads for every machinery over here in the mills we have a pigeon east expands almost in every direction. so it all for there won't be any problem with that for them honest. on the matter no say oh.

it's first who didn't know if it was a gold mining company or a mine we didn't know nobody knew a thing is there are the workers said they're growing or kids a flower company is that's what we understand it in the service. they were looking for me and when they found me that they asked me to sell my land here at least i said no i can never get you know my because i didn't want to sell no and i was not thinking of selling it oh yes down there on console when they started working on the road it appeared to me to go and have a look at my land. again when they got back in that i was the machines were working on my land they were making a highway. as if the property was theirs yes. since

. yes if if you all do a good job. if montana leaves if you get them out. of create jobs i mean he creates jobs. with a very melissa you only want to chase away the money. and we're the bastards no it doesn't bother me no no no no way no my support isn't for the company my support is for my life. so they make good money. well i want to make money to support my life. you see it because the let me know i think that there are two groups if there is one group that says i made her safely and openly no to mining. there is another group that says yes the mine is good there's a lot of divisions in their own communities because some people have jobs in the

mind etc having said all that the people in san diego and cells are trying to assist by starting to carry out their own postal taisha indigenous peoples. engaged in their own processes of expressing their views about these projects and they have called these processes consult us that when a food good food consultations and supplies for uniformly that he has been in opposition to development projects like mines on the territory then the communities aren't saying the owners of goldcorp or mean people are evil devils are just saying we don't want your companies here. this is a good incentive to go to one hundred get sellers that come from the mine seem crude the fifty cents stays in san miguel well if you read fifty cents will stop in

the hands of the central government in the way they neuer and ninety nine is for them. one hundred people in the us you know this kind of business is totally unfair for the community but it's it's a robbery practically. i mean the mining company says it has generated a lot of development in san macau. is this the truth is that the only development that they have created is an increase in violence the user can think if there are more then forty eight bars and time again the risk prostitution here in san miguel there is everything that is in the game so we haven't seen any development no real change that the mind has brought to this town. and this is the big buildings in the communities the profitable projects and whatever else could be done with so much money so if these things don't really exist it's a lie when they say there's a big change it doesn't exist there's nothing really.

you. know. the economic models that we were bringing them to countries like bottom all were really about making rich people richer. you know to take a step back and look sort of academic liam and she should be employed such a perfectly awful piece you start with this community that's a military tribunal and get you to speak you've been living in this valley for at least ten thousand years so to have this project dumped on top of their heads like the classics and you know imposition of a so-called developing project. selling the development projects that really. usually indebted countries made profits for world bank didn't really deliver

a lot for the for the poor who maintain those burdens of the world bank was aware of the violence being used to displace these people. listen. to. what. this. sort of be a detective he said if they're going to play for just how to put what is good is a similar process to what happened with the gold mining story there was a complete lack of consultation with the communities they were given no option as to whether they would need to move or not the whole serious of structural rules that were imposed on guatemala and many other countries through the international monetary fund in the world bank with leadership from the united states a pattern throughout the water model of large scale development projects mining hydroelectric dams and so forth within indigenous territories but without in many

case even minimal consultation what clearly what amal is and is in a desperate economic situation absolutely right what we're wrong to do is say there for any kind of economic development from the outside is going to be a benefit their only purpose is to extract as much money as possible to feed into the global financial system. with me or a part of the geo political economic system that's extremely exploitative i would argue that the legacy of my spin is precisely that that it has some short term economic benefit most most of those economic benefits accruing to investors and has a long term ecological consequence that is very negative for the for the ongoing development prospects of the region. it wouldn't surprise me at all if many of you

directly or indirectly are invested in the cold war through a pension fund through a trust fund through an endowment through a little bit of savings you have you're probably investing goldcorp and dozens of mining companies that are operating around the world contributing to harlem's to one degree or another. what you owe me one. since i came to leave here when i crossed the wooden breach in my car when to drink water and what happened. so they don't have water. that. there was no water. but they would let me know my was a mile in mine has used millions and millions of liters of. water that no longer

flows now that you have the mines are blowing through the amount of water that one family uses in twenty years or more every hour. there is a clash of cultures in the way that the govt or uses water is just another resource . in its extraction process and to the millions who really regarded essential to life the water is completely to its contaminates it's no longer fit for humans because again i can't they say there is no pollution so where does the poison go when they're done with it no longer presses the gold where does it go i mean and if you are saying it's not contaminated then let's go to the tailing down and you have a drink drink and then. eat didio the government isn't supposed to grant license without the community's

consent. but that's exactly what they've done in san miguel he didn't do. that. before we were not away. here but now the people are awake. the company got us one by one their debts hope people sold their lands the company wouldn't have been able to come in. we're starting to figure out what's going on. this. is. known as the. the beginning of the long haul took note marks in the face from island life.

in sin the enough temptation. to douglas last for six months. more polar bears than people. and it's as easy to hire a rifle as a scooter. because the island is so in a special there are no indigenous people but there are all those who do choose this frozen life. this era is could be right. if you are. from. approximately sixteen percent of imports came from illegal fishing. in the european union is ironically taking fish from some of the poorest nations on earth so this is a very serious and very urgent problem that needs immediate international action. get on top of that they enter our territorial waters they fish they load the fish

on to the ships and leave for europe. to day illegal fishing is taking the bread out of our mouths. he survived war atrocities. to make a final decision. he has changed his life and the world around him. by giving up. hope. and loves to. so how many children. nikolai the merits of the work on our team.

was an. islamist forces with links to al qaida seize control of the strategic iraqi city of fallujah forcing back government troops are to look into what's driving the terrorist networks relentless and advance through the region. we came here to try to understand how the group's been able to carry out large scale devastating attacks like the one in memory to right here what's behind the rise of our young men and does the us really understand with fighting in this country. and in the russian city of volgograd a hero in the face of terror. she was so brave she didn't even cry i was talking to her all the time to r.t. hears from a man who rescued a nine year old girl after a suicide bomber struck the city's train station.
