Good morning. This is Aljazeera America live from new york city. Im jonathan martin. Greece is asking for urgent Financial Relief after agreeing to harsh spending cuts to pave the way for a new bailout. U. S. Treasury secretary arrived in germany to scurs the on going crise. European leaders are considering a request for emergency cash. Germanys finance minister said an outright debt cut for greece is out of the question. The reforms are wildly unpopular among many greeks. In athens, demonstrations turned violent outside parliament. Cars and trucks were torched banks and a. T. M. s were vandalized as lawmakers voted to approve the plan. We are live in athens. Parliament passed the measure but seems no one is really happy about it. It was a landslide vote, but nobody is happy. Lawmakers here faced a stark choice, either adopt reform measures, more punishing austerity measures, heap more pain on a population thats all right pushed to the financial edge, or risk the total collapse of the Greek Economy. Speaking to lawmakers last night, Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras pointed out his displeasure with the reforms. I will admit that the measures we are taking are harsh and i dont agree with them. I dont believe they will help the Greek Economy and say so openly, i also say that i must implement them that is our difference. Now this vote did cause some serious damage within foreign minister tsiprass syriza party. Its going to make it very, very difficult for him to governor Going Forward. I should point out that the former finance minister, who was so controversial, had such a contentious relationship with creditors, said he would wear the loathing with pride voted no yesterday. We know about the leaked document in which the i. M. F. Is calling for greece to get large scale debt relief. Whats been the reaction to that . What the syriza government has been saying since taking power is that some form of debt relief has got to be on the table, their debts are unsustainable. The i. Approximate m. F. Came out with a leaked document that said european leaders have got to get real about how unsustainable this debt is. One measure was a deep haircut forgiving a large portion of that debt. Other measures considered was extending the grace period before greece has to start paying back principle and interest out another 30 years to 2053. A lot of focus on tip practices. What does his future look like there . Well as i said, jonathan, its going to be very, very difficult for tsipras to governor Going Forward with his majority fractured the way that it is. As for his personal fortunes, thats much more difficult to gauge, because theres been overwhelming sympathy in this country for the position he was put in. Many believe that he was black mailed people who didnt even vote for syriza feel sympathy for him. There is speculation new elections will be called in september, but tsipras is a towering political figure. I would not count him out yet. Patty sabga, thank you so much. Mexican drug lord el chapo is on the run a week after a broke out of prison. Now were getting an up close look at how he did it. We get a look at the prison. The maximum security prison where many of mexicos more dangerous or high profile criminals are locked up, none more notorious an Joaquin Guzman, el chapo captured here by the Mexican Government in february, 2014. This is home to the worlds most wanted drug lord until last saturday evening in which he sat down on the bed of his cell and put on his shoes. He then got up, and went into this area, which is one of the only areas in this cell where the cameras cant see him. He then knelt down and kept going lower and lower until he actually disappeared into this hole which then goes down into a tunnel wish extends 1. 5 kilometers. Its worth knowing this prison is a huge maze. We passed through so many corridors and security doors to get to this cell, its impossible to know where you are inside. That makes it more amazing and suspicious that el chapos rescue team new exactly where their tunnel had to come up. Behind is the building where he eventually emerged after going 1. 5 kilometers in his underground tunnel, luxury tunnel with ventilation and a motor bike that could have whisked him out to freedom. Theres a manhunt to try to catch him. Its anyones guess where Joaquin Guzman is now. Mexican authorities are offering a 4 million reward to find el chapo. President obama is continuing his push to build support for the nuclear deal with iran. He took on critics wednesday during a sometimes combative News Conference at the white house. He said despite what critics say, this does not put iran on the path to getting a nuclear weapon. Weapon know that we will have dismantled the immediate concerns around Irans Nuclear program. We will have brought stockpiles down to 98 . We will have significantly recognized the number of centrifuges they private installed an unprecedented inspections regime. I can say with confidence, but more importantly Nuclear Experts can say with confidence that iran will not be in a position to develop a nuke nuclear bomb. Congress has 60 days to review the opinion and accept or reject it. The president vows to veto any effort to stop the deal. President obama said in his inaugural address he would work to seek a new way forward in the middle east. This is seen as the latest chapter. Jonathan betz looks at the president s successes and failures in the region. It was supposed to be a fresh start when back in 2009, president obama arrived in egypt with a message of peace. Ive come here to cairo to seek a new beginning between the United States and muslims around the world. Those new beginnings turned into old problems. A revolution erupted, and the dreams of the arab spring turned into nightmares, failed states, wars crackdowns, from egypt to libya to syria. As the middle east changed critics say the president largely watched from the sidelines. I cant see that the challenge of the arab uprisings was something that the president was going to be able to influence to a dramatic degree. Obama warned the syrian president against using chemical weapons. We have been very clear to the assad regime, but also to other players on the ground that a red line for us is we start seeing a whole bunch of chemical weapons moving around or being utilized. Then he stepped away from that line when chemical weapons were actually used, killing hundreds. President assad remains in power. Allies like yemen have fallen to rebels. U. S. Efforts to reach a peace deal between israelis and palestinians collapsed. Obviously there are some differences between us, the precise formulations and lanes and thats going to happen between friends. Then theres iraq. I can report that as promised the rest of our troops in iraq will come home by the end of the year. After nearly nine years americas war in iraq will be over. Some argue obama pulled out too early helping isil flourish, only then to send American Forces back to help the iraq military. Its really easy to sort of sum up a critique of all the things oh, this president didnt do this, didnt do that, was 10 wrong here, 20 wrong there but the key thing this president got right was to understand that the u. S. For better and for worse cant unilaterally dictate the direction of the middle east anymore, if indeed we ever could. Obama inherited two wars, supporters credit him for shifting the u. S. Away from force and towards diplomacy and flexing americas muscle when needed. By army rebels in syria and launching airstrikes against isil. The reality in the middle east today is these crises were born in the middle east, they involve a number of regional actors and the solution has to come from the region itself. It is possible to change. What a stunning historic mistake. Overall much of the region remains in conflict. Its a far different world than what the president hoped for so many years ago in cairo. When the president said today that, needs to change. Ultimately, its not the job of the president of the United States to solve every problem in the middle east. The people of the middle east are going to have to solve some of these problems themselves. Former president george h. W. Bush is in the hospital recovering after breaking a bone in his neck. The 41st president fell at his summer home in maine on wednesday and taken to a hospital in portland. Mr. Bush turned 91 last month and uses a wheelchair because he suffers parkinsons disease.

One of the largest cyber crime marketplaces on the internet is shut down this morning. The website is believed to have played a role in the theft of information from millions of computer users worldwide. John henry smith has more on this shadowy enterprise and how the fed shut it down. We will start with an explanation of what dark code is or what it has been, a forum where hackers and other cyber criminals buy sell trade and share ideas and tools. The operation to take it down involved Law Enforcement officials from 20 countries. We have obtained court authorization to shut down the dark code forum. It first appeared in 2008, an invitation only website where criminals could trade malware pass words stolen credit card information and perhaps most importantly, ideas and techniques to make members better cyber criminals.

A coordinated takedown occurred involving cooperation of Law Enforcement of 20 countries around the globe resulting in the arrest, charging and search of 70 individuals who are dark code members or their associates. U. S. Attorney david hick to know detailed one of the many ways web users felt dark codes effects. Offered facebook spreading which would be to infiltrate your facebook account and basically steal your friend list and then sell your friend list and exploit your friend list many times without you even knowing it. The department of justice says putting a stop to dark code is a major coup. By arresting these individuals and seizing the dark code Hacking Forum weve shut down a dangerous avenue for buying and selling of malware bolt nets, and other tools of the trade for cyber criminals. But the f. B. I. Also warns that the problem goes far beyond dark code. Dark code was significant partly because it was one of the few dark web marketplaces operating in english but even with it shut down, the f. B. I. Says there are still roughly 800 criminal internet forums. The f. B. I. s Pittsburgh Office took the lead on this investigation because the steel city is home to the National Cyber forensics and Training Alliance dedicated to defeating cyber criminals. That outfit often works closely with the f. B. I. Squad the bare romainetains in the pittsburgh a area. A lot of interesting information. Today president obama will become the first sitting u. S.

The u. S. Has the highest incarceration rate in the world but as hour prison population gross, so does evidence of its negative social effects. Thats pushing one state to explore alternative models of justice. The second whitest state in the u. S. , maine is not renowned for ethnic diversity. Here among the capital buildings, a program is underway rooted in Global Indigenous cultures. It asks fundamental questions about the nature and purpose of criminal justice in the u. S. Prisoners are being released early so that they can learn from their crimes. The key is talking within a circle. There are kind of five key stone questions that we think about, what happened, what were folks thinking at the time or feeling tell the of that incident, what have they been thinking or feeling related to it since its taken place who has been affected and in what ways have they be affected and what needs to be done to make things as right as possible. Juvenile offenders in maine can escape incarceration if their victim is prepared to seek redress through Restorative Justice instead of prison. Theyre too young. Charlotte chose to confront the two boys who robbed her to make them understand why they did was wrong instead of having their lives ruined by jail time. I just had the feeling that they owe open that the kids who had done that had never really felt connected with the community. Restorative justice began to catch on in the u. S. As incarceration levels reached record numbers and the damage to communities recognized opinion in some states, modern u. S. Law enforcement is looking to aboriginal tradition. Its in their best interest to bring them to the center and say every reallied here, messed up and weve got to figure out a way for you to learn to make it up.
