FLASHPOINTS

Today on Flashpoints, in the wake of what the media is calling vandalism by occupy Oakland protesters last night. We speak with one of occupy Oakland’s own to get their version of events in the state of the movement. Next we go to Peru where clashes between demonstrators and police during protests against a US mining company have left more than 5 people dead. We then talk with Arnie Gunderson about the conclusions of an investigation by the Japanese government of the Fukushima nuclear melt down. Finally we go to Haiti where the government is forcibly evicting residents of poor communities and bulldozing their homes with little or no notice.
