many homes have been inundated in other parts of western japan. evacuations were ordered in both eastern and western japan. many evacuated voluntarily. the typhoon also has cut off electricity lines and affected domestic air services. >>> "newsline" is the place to turn to for the latest on japan, post march 11th. we have two segments offering two unique perspectives on the fallout from the earthquake and tsunami.

culture in western religion and western civilization are really the enemy and that's certainly what the man in norway felt and i don't think he's alone again he's probably in a very small minority who will pick up a gun and do something but the governments who have allowed endless amounts of open immigration who have who have made free speech much less viable in the west they're at base the cause of what happened in norway it was an overreaction to a puppet to a failed policy at least according to people like cameron and merkel turning now to libya the thirty countries recognize the rebel council as libya's they just make government now put. there are hottest so the west is helping to put into power in islamist government that will have as its strong right arm people who fought the united states and its allies formerly the red army in afghanistan and iraq and. is as brain dead policy and intervention in the muslim world as we've seen. we talk a lot about freedom and democracy but what comes next in libya is some kind of an islamist government and what the muslim world is seeing of c

we've obviously spoken regarding the western soma zoning district. so i understand your recommendations with regard to neighborhood commercial corridors and i think it's very short sighted on the part of the planning department to create neighborhood commercial corridors and then not do anything to make them work. and that's what we have in the case of 6th street. it's just a label. it doesn't mean anything because as part of the eastern neighborhood process, they just didn't want to touch the whole subject of entertainment. in fact, as dan cider told me, they were afraid that if they got into all the wrangling that goes along with changing the status of entertainment, that it would probably bring the entire eastern neighborhood's plan down. so understandably they left everything just the way it was. but i think it's a real shame that 6th street has the hope of becoming a vibrant, interesting proactive neighborhood that would benefit the community as well as the small businesses. with regard to western somea, which i have a small interest in , the ar

my field has had some light in what's happening in the western soma area and the sixth street corridorin regards to frankly this all goes back to planning department mistake in 1989 with the general ban across the board with entertainment permits and this great tragedy to the arts and cultural elements of san francisco. finally having the opportunity to get back into the light and some of these wrongs are going to be righted. and i'm hoping some of the western soma plants certainly have many beneficial changes that will address this. and jim meko has identified, the main challenge with it, i do not believe it adequately addresses our existing entertainment concentrations on 11th and fullsome street. the accessory use permit is similar in many ways to the limited live performance permit that is now passing through with the exception of i do believe we do allow d.j.'s as part of our limited or accessory use there so i'd like us to consider as this legislation evolves, maybe this is a first step in more community vetting and input. we can find safeways to opening up. as a commitments from

the western roman empire suffered a drastic decline in political complexity so it's true that the western roman empire not everybody enjoyed thought it was a decrease in political and economic complexity which one could call a collapse ok and i am sorry to interrupt you and you are you are reading into it a second one. my second example is a famous romantic example is the polynesian society on easter island easter the most remote habitable scrap of land in the world and island twenty three hundred miles west of the coast of chile and near absolutely nothing easter island is famous for its dry can pick stone statues when up to eighty tons a record by polynesians and then gradually all of those statues were eventually pulled their own and broken by the descendants of the very polynesians who were wrecked with them it's now clear that east reuland underwent the struggles society underwent a dramatic collapse that's a huge increase in political complexity and also population numbers as a result of the east raw it was inadvertently chopping down all the trees on the iraq war and that's not a w

he's an intelligent western pioneer. isn't that nice? the second is a letter that lucas wrote many years earlier during the war 1812 when he was a young officer and wrote this letter to a fellow officer. what's important to keep in mind is the words you're hearing he put in writing. she rode never was there a more patriotic army that had it more completely in their power to accomplish every object of their desire than the present and it must be now sunken in disgrace for want of a general lack their hand. neither was the mnf talent as there are some say and do the cushing foley opposed by an assault or treacherous commander. first of all, the grammar is imperfect because this man was self educated but smart. second, you put that in writing you could get in a lot of trouble. but this was a man who as we saw with michigan and ohio, and as we see here back in the war of 1812, a pioneer which is to say she would go and get what he wanted, and example number three is from an ohio paper in 1832, and the plant is 1832 is this was before the con

and also judeo-christian western civilization. there's such shame on the part of western man, such killed. we have oppressed the muslim world. we are the imperialist colonialist aggressor. we have oppressed muslims throughout the world. we have been a force for evil throughout the world. that is the mainstream line of thought running at least to the political left and many of our elite institutions, universities, even our government, mainstream media. and had to make a blanket statement but i've seen it, i'm in washington, d.c. in the halls of power and they see this self-loathing for western civilization. there's an attraction for anything that is not western. so there's a natural sympathy with islam. their victims. the palestinians are victims of the western-style israelis. that is a strain running through, and young people, they're being taught, not a revisionist american history but revisionist islamic history in our schools, in public schools and universities. there's a lot of confusion. there's a lack of pride, and lack of s

i followed him and i live here in a western capital i can read i go to all the institutions and i can hear only one side of the story of the tribunal has been set up by the way but maybe i'm here a bit maybe if you're defending if. i'm sorry go ahead please i'm sorry i want to see look the tribunal tells us that it wants true to exists in order to ensure that justice is done the word justice is used time and again as its actual purpose but justice is terribly simple you know eight it has two parts and three parts if you like it has the part of the prosecution it has the part of a defense and the defense must be given at least the same time as the prosecution because it's much more difficult defending against accusations and then of course we need an independent jury to give us a verdict now i have followed the tribunal which has now operated for a just over sixteen years not once here in london in a major western capital have i heard a presentation from the point a few of the defense but i've always heard about prosecution i've heard here in london the chief prosecutor mr richard gold

the victims of that war remembered in the proper context because i mentioned media earlier and in western media the serbs are just painted as the bad guys all the time in a series of civil wars why has that happened. there is a precedent to it you know and this is the second world war because it happened also during the invasion of nazi germany of the then at all yugoslav state it's a very simple process you know the invader of the one who wants to control the territory in the region ideally divides thing people into friends and foes you declare half the country to be the enemy to be the baddies and the other half the goodies so you arm them your way you speak nicely about them in your media and so on and then they can have a nice civil war between them neutralize each other and your army is going to roll over that is what mr hitler's army and his axis powers did and every single statement at the time in the german vulcan shells the film fell newsreels in the fall to show bell bucked the nazi newspaper stated that and as far as i can see nato is basically just repeated that divide the cou

media but also western newspapers have been dominated by headlines linking. very strongly. the attacks to islamic terrorism and that without you know strong information that's so i think that's unfortunate but i think the way just like europe has seen a shop rise in. right wing extremism lately and this has been heightened by economic recession but also in employment an increase in racism and an even stronger energies a mic feeling ok but aside from just as you mentioned there's a quick blame on jihad is certain but then there are those so also blame the failure of multiculturalism for this polarization in society do you think it has failed and why. well i think we've heard. going to merkel's germany's chancellor lately who condemned the failure of the multiculturalism and this has been echoed by various governments across europe are putting the emphasis on europe's judio christian roots and i think the problems come when you have cynical governments or politicians trying to attract nationalist votes by highlighting what might be different about islam and i t

the true western government in serbia and its president. made a remark couple days ago when this all the. started the year clearly from prishtina would not have brought this measure without some sort of at least tacit support from western powers and i think they were mainly in the united states so this was something that was actually calculated to bring about further pressure on belgrade because the believe government there may be a campaign issue right we single issue is e.u. accession and so they realize from the west especially from brussels and washington they can always blackmail them and they can put as much pressure on them as they need to because they have no other recourse here's talking about pressure from the west and we've actually been seeing nato peacekeepers already moving in now how deep are fears of this conflict with outside involvement now. well we have site involvement and because of already as you said we have nato peacekeepers of course are going we've had them since one thousand nine hundred ninety so actually we. hav

coding is sold over the counter in most western countries but its sales have doubled in russia in five years and many say this is not a coincidence i think it was a mistake to start selling coding without a prescription in the first place by making it the most easily available opiate it spawned this problem yet expert opinion has been divided some believe that this doesn't do enough to tackle the social cause of addiction and punishes innocent consumers. there is no efficient system in our country for issuing prescription it's those are the people who will suffer for the ordinary pensioners and housewives who need those medicines. the drugs then and the moscow suburbs we came here to ask what the users themselves think about the new law. i don't believe it would change anything that those who want to take drugs will take drugs we will buy them from the right pharmacies and if we don't get them to use something else we will always have something to inject. either of their of nerve see the mosque. the war news and updates says listen videos you can always go to our website or to dot com
