artie's spoke to a rapper immortal technique who says that if president obama doesn't start listening to his people you will lose the upcoming election. occupy wall street has now entered its fourth week of demonstrations and this movement has now blazed a profits nation in forty five feet two hundred cities and over the past few weeks many well known names have thrown their support behind the movement including my current gas rapper after this and revolutionary immortal technique thank you for joining me thank you for having me on the program within the first few weeks you came down here to speak to the crowd from what i understand you were very bothered by the fact this movement was being marginalized right now for one week into a mainstream media is down here we see all these satellite trucks around why do you think they have gone to report about what is taking place here and throughout the

country you know there's an old phrase in the media if it bleeds it leads you know the more shocking the more outrageous it is the more that they want coverage because they know that other stations the smaller media outlets the blogging sites those sites that may not be necessarily mainstream media but have the attention of millions of viewers are starting to actually pay attention to what's going on here which one is which is one of the biggest expressions of democracy in the past few decades here in america and i think that when that is clear and present in front of everyone to see it becomes blatantly obvious to some of the larger. media senses that they're not even giving an ounce of coverage to it it makes them look even more biased than the already i think the tipping point might have been the arrests the mass arrests of here in the eight hundred peaceful protesters on the brooklyn bridge that took place i know you've been very outspoken about it and of the police brutality i think that very much but the police brutality when it hit the when it

hit the internet became viral because you saw a bunch of defenseless people that were simply expressing their freedom. to speak their mind in a public place then they were penned off and they were sprayed down they were obviously not in danger of harming any police officers and then all of a sudden you see white shirts coming out warm warthen and seemingly unable to be held responsible for anything that they do almost as if they're above the law and that is very exemplary of exactly what has continued to fuel the fire here at this protest the fact that people that are on wall street people that are in government are refusing or i should say is that all of them but a lot of them are refusing to acknowledge their responsibility and what caused all this you know this then come from nowhere people didn't just decide to get up and be angry about nothing people who are seriously concerned about the direction that our democracy is going i want to ask you about something that new york city mayor

michael michael bloomberg said about this demonstration he said that these protesters are trying to destroy the jobs of working people in new york city mayor michael bloomberg said that this demonstration is not productive do you think that this is. an illustration of disconnect what do you think about no i think that's a perfect illustration of a connect his connect to wall street bloomberg is what seventy five percent are about owner of bloomberg l.l.c. he has a sixteen billion dollars stake or so down the wall street this is business of course he feels threatened and he's going to do whatever he can including making the police more and more confrontational to elicit the type of negative response that he wants from these protesters he wants to goad them into violence he wants to make them argue amongst one another he wants to find issues of race religion sexual orientation whatever he possibly can him and people like him to exploit people that are coming here who just simply want to express themselves how is this anything but

a democratic expression of freedom of speech and democracy is something very alien to that fraud mr bloom. what should we do should we just we just completely ignore i would god given right to assemble here and to question our government we're not anti-american we love america and we refuse to see it destroyed by the same people that have been corrupting it for the past countless number of years i believe that there are lots of people that are willing to put up mr obama's second term on the altar of the marker see if he's not willing to listen to the same group of people that were honestly trying to believe in the words he was saying when he claimed. that he was going to change things in this country which haven't changed too much honest well this is clearly going to become a part of the twenty twelve election because this is gotten so big it has spread so far and wide u.s. president barack obama did speak about this and said he understands the frustration

of those taking part and not sure i'm following why these frustrations and you know in two thousand and eight this country was ready to go up in office obama was not the the great unifier he was the great pacifier. he came in here and said no it's going to be ok i'm going to take care of all this it's a clear of all of this this is not hatred towards him this is not a denigration of him as of me but he knows the system he has to stand up for because he's tied to it to what makes the momentum nationally that the u.s. to step aside from the occupation and hide from the visual what do people think you do when we start costing them money when we start bleeding them down that's when they get the message that's when they get it through their heads oh my god no they've discovered the magic way to deal with us on the problem here b. is that i see a lot of potential i see potential that needs to be harnessed i see people that i understand the reason they have an elected leaders but i think that there should be

more spokespeople that go out and have the actual core message of this group that realize that the corruption that has existed in this system would be. look at this nation they see republicans completely in the hands of corporations democrats pandering to them nonstop we see them also involved now to the president as part of expanding war was expanding occupations not standing up for human rights you know being blind about several global issues that are important to people here because they reflect on our democracy what we do outside of america defines our democracy here i've seen a lot of people online think jeff that this move mankind if they were to take some action should go so far as to either pull their money out of banks or stop using credit cards that's not i'm not promoting any ideas here while asking this question but it is something that has been suggested do you think that the second idea is a lot better than the first job using a credit card and i think even though we have to have

a cohesive strategy to pull this together i think that there's a lot of real brainstorming that needs to happen because if we make one move we need to be focused on what moves will be made against us you know this is a chess game just like the united states chess game in the middle east where they're willing to give up a few pawns but what they really want to pieces they're willing to trade a few lame duck presidents because what they really want is the main characters of the bill you know they're willing to trade the foreign bengalis get out of the support. the other guy used to be a player mubarak became a pawn what do they want. the bishop gadhafi gone. now they want the queen iran out of the secu chess game i don't think that they're not playing that here is. we have to not only be focused on what the next move but what the reaction to what their reaction to our next move is we have to think ahead of the game which is why i said there should be more brainstorming sessions here and

i'm not so sure they should always be in public because i think honestly that we're not the only ones watching this would be a fool to think that there aren't people involved here. around this area that aren't sleeper cells or agents that's not me being paranoid that's just the truth you know the first person the first black person to ever work for the secret service agency was agent eight hundred his job was to infiltrate the movement of marcus garvey if they were thinking like that back then why wouldn't they be thinking like that and i think what's most important is that we don't get frustrated or angry or upset or lack the patience to be able to deal with this movie there was a there was a sign out here that said you know police offices you're one bounced check away from being out here with the rest of us to look at a lot of people think they're angry they're screaming at cops but you're going to stand there just working class individuals whose their boss the mayor the mayor is get money with wall street he's literally. he's closer to wall street than

americans that is really i don't i mean. that's that's his homie those are his people when they die you pours out a little liquor for them so when he says something to the police commissioner the police commissioner says something to the white shirts and the white shirts kick down to the soldiers it's similar to what we see in the most brutal parts of the occupation of iraq and afghanistan the most brutal parts of that war soldiers held accountable for terrible things that have happened within the confines of the war but no officers no generals nobody that implemented these policies nobody that said hey you know what take him into the back and cut his hands off until he tells me what i want to hear or raipur till she can't stand until she gives us the information that we want but that's only attributed to the contractors to the soldiers not to the upper levels not to the cia memos not to the people that wrote them which is why when i look at cops this is a certain amount of cynicism that i have when people say oh they're all evil they're all we can know they're not evil they're all we can the people that are

innocently following orders if they don't follow orders they'll lose their job like the sign said that one bounced check for being right here with the rest. busta and i think that's also a big difference between this movement and between the arab spring as the difference is that in the arab spring there was a concentrated force of security forces whether it be military or national guard that decided to join with the move because those were the people they were literally saying well these are the people that i'm being told by my government that i have to go to war with other countries to protect and yet now i'm being told to attack and kill the same people at some point everybody has to question what they're doing and why they're even here what they're doing in their job if they're being expressive their democracy and a greater question what did they ever really do to be considered an american. if you fall out of a pool in new york or new jersey or kansas that's why you're an american if you have a stand up when you kumin rights in your civil rights that you have a question of government and trying to infringe on your civil liberties would you

ever try to reform a government that's done nothing but in this country dry stealing from people constantly. if people come here from the opposition people love consistently been a part of taking advantage of the people that are here that are upset at what we're doing because it exposes what they've been doing this whole time which exposes the corruption behind closed doors then we know we're on the right and i'm telling people right now that i'm going to continue to come back down here to this movement i was here when it started i won't be here when it finishes because it's never going to finish because we can never stop reforming our democracy the moment that we stop reforming our democracy it ceases to be a democracy the moment that the revolution stops that means the revolution has been betrayed we're here to stay and we're not going anywhere.

have you with this thursday morning here in central moscow plenty of sport ahead in getting these stories including. sounding off russian football manager dick advocaat states the old club versus country is affecting his team's euro twenty twelve preparation. the longest ever season domestically russian football is currently in the process of switching to the european league system and we get our heads around the big changeover in a little bit. to come the line it's all change of the crucial fly how positioned for wales ahead of sunday's rugby world cup semifinal with france jeans who replaces the injured slim. with automatic qualification for euro two thousand and twelve russia's football team are not looking to fill up their preparation time with friendly clashes but their head man clubs here are already feeling twitchy and allowing their stars leave for international treaty. so

hopefully the owners are happy as well sometimes i have some doubts about it because we can play two fund images next game in the world do some protests from some owners so i don't understand the way they think because i think they have to think about. because it's very important so we are willing to think about the clubs well so we only play one one game and hopefully don't they are up for only be against his office he wanted to play a much tougher opposition from the french you've been playing recently against the likes of iran qatar no disrespect of m. but the opposition we face in the year is going to be much tougher so impersonal we know. already but we still get must get the goal from asian tomorrow so i can also fall to madison no zero point. eight it last week that if russia didn't make it to the pole and then ukraine finals he would step down as national team coach

but with the team topping qualifying group either by bypassing the treacherous play off or a tease here until next summer least on the country's football union well they're happy with that. so i do a cart is a top level specialist he's a very consistent prismatic and goal oriented person and to make it even better he's a winner he's doing runs out in july next year but it has an option to be extended and i can't see any need to change that. brings us to the mess that game where the final steps are being taken to move the russian premier league calendar in line with the rest of europe the year now kicks off in autumn with the final matches taking place in late spring richard van port fate has more than what this will mean for the club's. i have never been there is normally the month when the new russian premier league champion is crowned however this won't be the case missy am in fact

the winner will be confirmed till may of next year as the country's footballing calendar is undergoing a radical change to bring them in line with the rest of europe. field formats often put russian clubs competing in europe and disadvantage as once they reach the latter stages of the champions league will be europa league this season this year to start. all over the remainder of the continents were already halfway through very campaigns and we're in a much better position but it will help us immensely moving to the new calendar club samet difficult previously to compete with the top clubs around europe in the latter stages of the european competition isn't it however things should now be a lot easier for us what has to be put on a level playing. clubs will carry on playing until the end of the current championship and then i am every team played thirty games. however then there will be a split two games taking place in november and remains well from march until may two

thousand and twelve after four months when to very confused well if you take a look at the current table and of the clubs remaining the same positions at the end of the season the top eight so that xeni to angie would play each other home and away and fight it out to see who is eventually crowned champion and who qualifies for europe. however at the other end that's cross the dust home again they would play each other twice with two teams relegated to first division when the season eventually finishes a maybe but i have to go but it will be really hard for the clubs at the start as we will have to play a lot of league games as well as trying to fit in european competitions as well but in the end it will be worth it because we'll be on a similar calendar to those playing in the majority of europe that have been concerns about you can into it in concert the disadvantage can be unpredictability finishes with the conditions however the steers should prove to be unfounded and

you championship will cover pretty much the scene be still currently used because of the winter break on the country on the alternate two thousand and twelve russia will join the rest of europe during the season finishes in me i mention something we don't see moscow. right let's stick with football for a little longer where serbia captain de young stunk of h. has announced his international retirement at the age of thirty three the move coming after country failed to qualify for the european finals while star defender pneumonia video is believed to be joining him the twenty nine year old man chest united skipper hinting he may call of the day any time know that it stating he takes full responsibility for missing what's good with being at the qualification altering penalty for his country on tuesday the serbs needed to win is to venia to leapfrog estonia and to second spot infancy but son spoke of hoppe time this off and falling behind for trucking goal by a dollar a verse

a check on then that it saw his feeble strike from the spot saved meaning serbia spall fine hopes were dashed. i brush is under twenty one team meanwhile are going great guns in european qualifying this side maintaining their one hundred percent record by beating portugal in moscow without extending their lead at the top of group six in the race to israel constantine to top off reports. russia had started their qualifying campaign confidently with two wins on the road and a goal difference of plus eight and in their third encounter the russian space their main group six trial if they were to go on home soil a team keep just outside moscow and peace or is a man to control from the start in a first have a few scoring opportunities though were punished for a moment of slickness after half an hour with some of the on the phone from self virtually on marks and the edge of the box and hammered the ball through the rule

and the flailing hands of the goalkeeper to put portugal at halftime however whatever they had coached said the hosts a tough time seemed to work as russia came out even more determined and everything swung the hosts way within just four second half minutes first but only a kind of cross to the four course where alex on the court in headed home the twenty year old forwards enthusing just telling qualifying to an impressive five goals in three matches and then substitute in fellow dinner must go for the other small of dribble bust three defenders to beat the keeper at the knee of course to make it to one off to fifty four minutes and that's how it finished the home side took the in control and giving the board to be a snow chance to equalise. i was a little bit surprised that there was no one in front of the goal when i faked the move or so i decided to shoot and i made the right decision going by the head coach said we should play our game in which solid defending would score and win the match

on the time it happened we conceded an awkward goal as the months to come from behind and deserved only in the middle to go didn't have any scoring opportunities in the second half of russia no took the group with nine points from three matches well portugal sleaze ball and into third the same by that of our team. that wales helping forced to make a change to their lineup ahead of saturday's rugby world cup semi final battle with france changed to kate will start at flyhalf up. priestland who injured his shoulder in the closing minutes of the quarter final win over old aren't seeing just three minutes of action that day and has recently been playing of the position were frequently warring gatland opting for the twenty six year old in the starting line up not flyhalf with record cops who were stephen jones moving to the bench as backup will seeking to end a difficult run against the french having. lost six of the previous seven

not she's got a record against it i morgan parra meanwhile will be aiming to do his best to be nice to step on the field at the weekend the flyhalf ready to take over kicking the two days if scrum half to me to yash really is on a boat to recover from the booze buying off on time yes truly has had a full three days without practice sunday is now an ally training group seen french coach mark leave him all hoping whoever plays can produce the goods again slight favorites wales. for one giants mcclaren will have to wait another year at least to see its drivers lift so who are sebastian vettel securing his second straight trying for red bull at the weekend while mcclaren aren't even a lock yet for second place out of this sunday's korean grand prix jenson button does however leave fernando alonso by eight points in the standings but admits he underestimated rival vettel early on. i never thought he'd win the chance of in two thousand and ten i thought he meant to mistakes. but he did and this year he

has driven superbly you know he hasn't really made any mistakes and he's been super fast everywhere we've gone. he's obviously had a great car to me with a bad car but he's done the best of you possibly can with that car so yeah he's done he's difficult to beat when you win you don't quite have the performance but. you know i think we're we're a very strong team and if anyone can fight back it's definitely us. that is how your sport looks this morning more coming up in under two hours time whether it's next.
