on their water bills are getting their water shut off completely the detroit water and sewage department is five billion dollars in debt and that is a justification to crack down on deadbeats on the surface the seems like it open and shut case of course everyone has the right to water especially detroit which is near huge bodies of fresh water that other cities can only dream of but on the other hand if the poor don't pay for water then us taxpayers will be paying for it for them and that's not fair i think this is not so much a case of a right to water but a right to disemployment and a crapshoot for the city government back when people in detroit had good salaries and a government that wasn't flagrantly corrupt they would have any problems paying for their water bills but that's just my pain.

rise of the islamic state or isis in the middle east is said to reorder political realities in the region the westfield colonial agenda for the arab world is coming to an end it would seem the arab spring has been replaced with a jihadi summer. right on the scene. first strike. and i think you're. on a reporter's. instrument. to be in the. on. again you without international make kevin zero in continuing now a story that helped shape the last seven days and suspects being never arrested over the murder of a palestinian teenager who is thought to have been slaughtered in

a revenge killing an old top seed suggests the teen was alive. it's desperate fierce clashes that between the arab population and israeli police the boys believed to be murdered over the killing of three jewish teenagers whose bodies were discovered last monday the instant sent tension soaring in the region within days israel arrested hundreds of palestinians and raided thousands of homes while trying to find the jewish teen's killers but a senior advisor for the palestinians because political party told us that israel's response he thought was over the top the case is that of military occupation of a country against. people and civilians the case of sweeping koroma zation it's very clear that. the two really politicize the event in a way to reveal its real 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 for fragmented and the tools to attain this goal is a state sponsored terrorism and the excessive use of force as you have just shown have you heard anywhere else that there is a state that will simply kidnap an entire nation lay siege on communities because there are investigations and allegations so this whole collective punishment approach that israel has been using has to stop. and in the week the emergence of this video certainly didn't help ease any tensions it shows israeli police brutally beating the cousin of the murdered palestinian teenager he'd flown to jerusalem for the funeral but was arrested the day before friday's sort of mini street clashes erupted. the brutal deaths of the israeli teenagers will give an emotional coverage across the western channels sense that there will be some retaliation for these deaths is becoming increasingly apparent that his promise to make hamas pay three

teenagers found out on monday there is a huge amount of grief the discovery the grim discovery of the three bodies of those israeli teenagers late yesterday israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu said the three teenagers were murdered in cold blood by what he described as animals but what hasn't been seen so much show the hundreds of palestinian families who've been left to grieve for their lost children who found more than fifteen hundred palestinian children have died and six thousand have been injured by israeli forces since the year two thousand you can see the figure. that's one palestinian child killed every three days but local activists fear the international media repeatedly chooses to turn a blind eye to israel's deadly record israeli army has been killing palestinians in cold blood for several years we are talking about thousands and thousands of

palestinians were killed by the israeli army and tens of thousands of people who were injured during forty seven years of military occupation the israeli army now is demolishing houses and the actions of collective punishments are continuing also in the form of air raids on gaza which the israeli army is using to provoke reactions from palestinians and then present these they are either the actions as cause or as the reason for their or positive behavior in gaza strip and in other places and palestinian territories. more news of the week a top u.s. war contract to iraq threaten to kill a state department official who was looking into the wrong doings at the firm which used to be called blackwater the new york times has published a report which claims the manager gloated that there was little investigators could do about it because blackwater was so heavily involved in u.s. work the document indicates that blackwater's top manager in a low weave and tone of voice told one of the government's agents a deal that he could kill him without blinking an eye state department

investigators who are in iraq then had to curb further investigation they described staff of the notorious security firm as out of control that it was operating above the law but the american embassy sided with blackwater former state department official peter buren told us washington knew about the reckless and dangerous behavior. the state department was so afraid of its mission in iraq being slowed down or delayed by replacing blackwater 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 to blackwater unit

murdered seventeen people in the iraqi capital u.s. officials said they were shooting without cause and that innocent lives were lost no that it stopped the firm from getting other lucrative contract contracts it's believed indeed to assisted the cia's drone mission in pakistan blackwater to also receive millions of dollars from washington for housing u.s. troops in afghanistan. the putting as well now there are more spy strains developing between germany and the united states when read up more about that it turns out there was a double agent in billings midst who's accused of feeding data to the n.s.a. we've got the full story online. there to what's this pretty surreal structure actually it's an abandoned soviet era electricity generator who thought said to be capable of power in the whole country it is day now though powering tourism instead curious thing check it out online from us. right

the scene. first for you and i think that you're. on our reporter's twitter. instagram. to try and spur jobs and businesses were often being told that way to buy local it's kind of tricky though these days in this globalized world but one frenchman did give it a go read a culture of i went to find out how he fared surviving soley on french made products for nearly a year. frank skinner person really in this day and age the answer is ninety six point nine percent if you ask french journalist spencer carr apart a ten month ban on anything for the cost of the expulsive the rules of this

experience were to get rid of everything that was not french and only use products that got most of their added value on french soil with 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 a government plea to stick to french products to stem the country's decades long industrial decline the problem is that there aren't many products left these 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 whether french flag goods are valid from. today's rules of the european union a crazy if you take the should for example and you just so the buttons in france 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 more than me according to some experts who claim the point he's european commitments are opening the door to point competition and force in french companies out of business. has to made 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 everybody around the world agrees on that but we go from one extreme to another where there is no regulation at all deindustrialization 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 going abroad purchasing with patriotism takes 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 room for all 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 it's a buy for products or get them manufactured. i love life and i love to benefit from things and i think it's impossible to live completely with for. products it costs too much anyway and it takes a crazy amount of time because it's hard to find needless to say benjamin is now behind be 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. to other time for trying though i still to come in the next few minutes lucrative for some can prove dangerous for others stay with us if you can find out how shale gas drilling in romania has locals fearing for their livelihoods close to a foolproof test to prove who's a potential terrorist the criteria's trying to keep yourself private on the internet apparently that's what the n.s.a. thinks we've got it coming up.

they'd fratto terrorism the nature of terrorism is becoming increasingly internationalized how local governments which may be the case in afghanistan i very limited and i belittle to curtail that increasingly globalized threat so what how do you really strike a balance here your father has got has by not fighting drugs he was living in the hood stuff if we all start for i did books two of them a lot of them were they would be peaceful if you tried to help them but it added. to the example of this but success.
