into play and what's meant to be a peaceful movement our guest tonight specifically pinpoints the black bloc anarchists and calls them the cancer within occupy the destroy it so earlier i caught up with chris hedges columnist for truthdig and author of his latest book death of the liberal class i first asked him what he thought about the president's decision to send out his people and tell the donors to give away to super pacs. well he doesn't have any choice because the political system since citizens united in two thousand and ten has been rigged. if you step out of line these super pacs have the capacity to wipe you out. it was the death blow to american democracy it's a game obama has to play if he wants to retain political power and so he's playing it well i think you could say that he's playing it from both sides as well right because now his aides are coming out saying at the president would support a constitutional amendment to get citizens united overturn but let's segue into the occupy movement right one of their things is also been getting the influence of money out of politics an

economy china has promised to consider pumping its cash reserves into the euro zone to help with the bloc that crisis the offer comes after a strong lobbying push on the part of the german chancellor during her three day trip to the asian nation there she openly asked for help in saving the embattled the euro and involved a promise from her chinese counterpart to look into it she also pushed for beijing to cut its ties to iran this comes as the bloc awaits with bated breath for the conclusion of the drawn out greek debt talks negotiations are key to athens receiving a second bailout from the e.u. and are seen as its only chance to avoid default political analyst christophe horsetail believes that ultimately merkel will have achieved very little. i would chancellor on a triple begging she wants money for europe she wants you know a support from beijing for the new u.n. resolution which beijing is not going to give and she also wants beijing to cut off its own oil supply which beijing is why it's not going to do and of course beijing has also to take into consideration that india its compet

there are more buildings across the street within the bloc and so on and so forth. what the neighborhood character is about here is to stories and that is what we have got. we have nine houses in a row, two stories from the street. our house has 3 stories but we have a penthouse that is put back. what we are requesting is the character of this side of rico way, this project be in character with the existing development on this side and the fact that we have this neighborhood character which is unique. this is definitely a planning issue. of character in the neighborhood. this is a lovely block and we would like to keep it in character. thank you. president miguel: product sponsor, you have two minutes. -- project sponsor, you have two minutes. >> thank you. this is to correct a dysfunctional layout that allows us to have our children germs on the same floor. our project is extremely modest and fits within the existing neighborhood. we worked hard to make sure the neighbors understood what we were doing, address any questions and concerns the may have. we spent hours

november second this is on november second there these critics didn't have much to say about the black bloc at that time since then i think a lot of this is come out in response to january twenty eighth in the failed building occupation that occupy oakland attempted to do and i by all accounts there was no black bloc that day there were some bottles thrown there were shields but there was no black bloc and there was no property destruction but so do you think though that you know p.r. wise right a lot of this is about perceptions and the way that the rest of america continues to see this movement whether the public will support it or won't do you think that any kind of violence and vandalism you know be a black bloc or not is that negative. you know as a reporter i just think that context is important and i'm not really comfortable condemning or champion a particular tactics from my own perspectives i just think that i think that it would be great if these critics came to occupy oakland and saw what was actually happening at occupy oakland and then made these informed opinions i do think th

arab states in response to the iranian revolution of one thousand nine hundred seventy nine the g.c.c. has a bloc inside the league of arab states but it doesn't have a majority position in the league of arab states in the question of libya the g.c.c. was able to move the arab states in its stead action and therefore the security council it was resolution one thousand seven hundred three right after that the league of arab states in a walk for a new leader rejected the qatari candide it on behalf of the egyptians never to not be allowed to be is that head of the league of arab states so what this means is that in the arab league there is now less appetite for allowing the g.c.c. to run things so the g.c.c. is trying to good alone that force never thought this move by the g.c.c. does not increase tensions with iran after all you said that the reason why it was set up and of course we're seeing international pressure on syria what impact are we seeing on iran perhaps getting involved the consequences of iran getting involved if there is foreign intervention look the question is the g.c.c. i think i

or this week we spoke to chris hedges about what he saw as a cancer within the occupy movement black bloc tactics of violence and vandalism that he thinks could actually kill the movement if governments use these tactics as an excuse to use more force and if the public sees these rogues as representing the whole of the protesters now it's been a highly debated topic and we share the varying opinions of some of our viewers on the program but let's look even further into it the oakland california has been the physical location for so-called black block tactics of inspire journalists and activists to support or come out against them and many of those in oakland itself killed in order to understand why this is happening and to get more context look at the dynamics and the history of oakland so joining me to discuss it is freelance journalist susie cagle says you thanks so much for joining us tonight and i guess for starters just tell me you know why it is that you felt that you really had to write something in response to what chris hedges and others have been saying about the danger of black

within the occupy movement so he wrote earlier this week and the black bloc was a cancer in the movement and last time he said that it had the power to kill off occupy altogether our viewers had a lot of really strong opinions on this topic clearly it's something that's over which there's a lot of debate out there so i decided to pick some of them out and basically let them speak for themselves so black bird isn't set on you to black block our agent provocateur is by definition their aim is always to provoke violence as such they are no different than undercover police who infiltrate demonstrations just wait until those fifteen million unemployed americans many of the white collar variety receive the last of their unemployment insurance and surance benefit checks and start losing their homes and cars occupy will grow tenfold perhaps more i prefer to see the militia protests protecting protestors free speech rights. said on you tube c'mon chris you know damn well the elites of our forms of capitalism have long declared the fleecing of america and wherever in the world the globali
