dollars of u.s. made equipment abandoned uniforms shared in haste. now this looks like a perhaps a breakout from the special forces iraqi special forces this is obviously a vest that they discarded left behind they dressed in civilian clothes ran away essentially abandoned their posts and that's how in part isis has been able to see it so much territory so quickly. the fighting has displaced hundreds of thousands of iraqis that many are scarred by the two thousand and three invasion and describe a sense of deja vu with the current crisis start again from two thousand and three it's coming back so it's a disaster actually things are getting worse we want to understand first hand how this war was playing out we're on our way right now is one of the front lines of the village and some abdulla up until about five days ago when isis insurgents

of military occupation of a country against people and civilians the case of sweeping coma's ation the case of state sponsored terrorism and this latest incident unfortunate and sad that is it reveals the full scale of. goals on israel's implement practices and implementation on the ground as far as the goal is it's very clear that israel has exploited this incident and hebrew and beyond any any any common sense exploited it to really politicize the event in a way to reveal its even intentions and its real intention is the block to block the emergence of a palestinian state is to make sure that gaza will never come back to the west bank and palestinians would remain fragmented is to weaken the palestinian authority the palestinian president the hamas everybody here because they are really interested in one thing the greater israel project that interested to keep colonizing and stealing the land in the west bank and keep the populations everywhere under

11:19 am
nobody will just talk to them before today situation is the other vertically up to us all right now what are you really and i've got to jump in here with another question why i've got to jump in here with another question what do you rather bloodlessly referred to as the hebron incident the murders of those three israeli teenagers israel blames that on hamas which sparked all of this do you have any information on who might be responsible for that. well i don't as well doesn't know but it does so far there is investigation and this brings me to the most important thing go business practice and step out when you investigate an incident present the best has condemned this incident however it must be noted that these are not israeli citizens period these are israeli citizens who illegally reside in the occupied palestinian territories however it was condemned because we the palestinians condemn any use of violence any form of violence having said that

11:22 am
as a contractor that they were willing to accept almost any standards of behavior out of the company in order to continue the contract even though they understood it was detrimental to us aims blackwater was an organization out of control in iraq and we now have absolute proof that the state department who was supposed to control them knew that they were out of control knew that they were dangerous people knew that they were acting contrary to u.s. policy aims and did nothing. just weeks after the death threat a blackwater unit murdered seventeen people in the iraqi capital u.s. officials say they were say they were shooting without cause and that innocent lives were lost but it didn't stop the firm from getting other lucrative contracts it's believed to have assisted in the cia drone mission in pakistan and also got millions of dollars from washington for housing u.s. troops in afghanistan and more spy strains are developing between germany and the united states online dot com you can find out how it turns out there was

a double agent in the berlin's midst accused of feeding data to the n.s.a. you can find that story on our web site also. this surreal structure actually invented soviet era electricity generators said to be capable of powering the whole country now powering tourism check that out on our website. to try and spur jobs and businesses we are often told to buy local that's the kind of tricky thing though in this globalized world but one frenchman tried to give it a go marina kosar even went to find out how he fared surviving solely on french made products for almost a year. frank skin a person really is in this day and age the answer is ninety six point nine percent if you ask french journalist special car the flight attendant the band and for most of us the. rules of this experience were to get rid of everything that was not french and only use products that god most of their added value on french soil with
11:24 am
an average salary of one thousand eight hundred euros a month i found myself in a situation where i had to buy everything again including furniture. inspired by government pleads to stick to french products to stem the conscience decades long industrial decline the problem is that there aren't many products like those days that a purely french what really surprised me is how much food we import each time i see a foreign product i think it's crazy because it could have been made in front but it's not. but benjamin's biggest surprise was that shoppers probably don't know where their french like goods are really from. today's rules of the european union a crazy if you take the shirt for example and you just so the buttons in front of you have the right to put a made in france label on it it's the last operation the product undergoes that matters. even though it's not hard to find economic patriots like benjamin it is hard to support the french economy according to some experts claim the country's
11:25 am
european commitments are opening the door to point competition force in french companies out of business. we estimate that in france there is roughly one plant closing every day between two hundred forty and two hundred sixty plants a year absolute protectionism like in north korea is absolute what everybody around the world agrees on that but we go from one extreme to another where there is no regulation at all the industrialization comes from globalization but it doesn't happen because some bad guys took the jobs of the french but because the french companies think we will make more money by. purchase him with patriotism take some effort but shoppers here are giving it a go and the hope of saving local businesses and keeping them in the country retail experts say there's just so long as they play fair one solution being put forward is to level the employment standards within the european union and boost local industries so that it's not cheaper to buy farm products or get them manufactured
11:26 am
applause. i love my wife and i love to benefit from things and i think it's impossible to live completely with french products it costs too much anyway and it takes a crazy amount of time because it's hard to find needless to say benjamin on his borders again but he's paying more attention to labels and ecological recycle products no matter where they come from moving the cost of reports in from paris artsy. still to come a look behind the scenes here at our latest episode of news team or if you're watching us from the u.k. a report on doctors involved in prisoner torture stay with us. yes it's official the mainstream media must be made up of stereotypical gossipy teenage girls i mean how else can you explain the fact that michelle obama using

the term chipped has become a scandal i don't white house summit on working families mrs obama explained that when she was working part time she realized she was getting gypped because she was actually king full time but only getting paid the part time salary technically the term gypped is somewhat racist and implies a gypsy's are all con men but in the modern world i think most people don't even know where the term comes from i doubt michelle obama likes a medieval peasant shield her children from wandering gypsies who could give them the evil eye i seriously question if there was any deep racial intent in the statement i personally would let the first lady off the hook but the question is would she do the same for me or any other person in the media probably not but thankfully for mrs obama she can't be fired from being the first lady only divorced or her husband's term ends now for me and every other person saying their opinion on camera we've got to be a lot more careful but that's just my opinion. rise
