:00:27. > :00:33.Orla Guerin reports from the civilian victims of the US drone

:00:33. > :00:43.attacks in Pakistan. Highly educated, jobless and deep in debt,

:00:43. > :00:44.

:00:44. > :00:51.we meet the US graduates who cannot find work. We report from Benin,

:00:51. > :00:56.the Christians to hedge their bets by dabbling in voodoo. A protest

:00:56. > :01:01.march is taking place in Pakistan against Washington's use of drones

:01:01. > :01:06.against militants in the trouble belt along the Afghan border. There

:01:06. > :01:16.has been a dramatic escalation in the use of drawings during Barack

:01:16. > :01:17.

:01:17. > :01:24.Obama's presidency. -- drones. Most of the dead are suspected militants.

:01:24. > :01:29.However, several hundred civilians have also been killed. In the skies

:01:29. > :01:39.overhead, day and night. In Pakistan's trouble belt, there is

:01:39. > :01:39.

:01:39. > :01:45.no escape from CIA drones. This is what is left when they strike. It

:01:45. > :01:48.killed Al-Qaeda's second in command, a big victory for the White House.

:01:48. > :01:55.US officials say they are precision weapons that limit collateral

:01:55. > :02:02.damage. We met some of those on the receiving end who begged to differ.

:02:02. > :02:08.Between them, they have lost 12 relatives, all civilians they

:02:08. > :02:15.insist. Mohammed Yusuf lost two uncles and two cousins. When I saw

:02:15. > :02:20.their bodies in pieces, my heart wanted revenge he said. It still

:02:20. > :02:25.does. At the Pakistani parliament very strong opposition to the

:02:25. > :02:30.strikes. The government has said repeatedly they are illegal,

:02:30. > :02:36.counter-productive and a violation of the country's sovereignty.

:02:36. > :02:41.Pakistan does nothing to stop the strikes. Officials deny that

:02:41. > :02:47.amounts to tacit consent. The remote control the killers are

:02:47. > :02:52.Barack Obama's weapon of choice, not only in Pakistan. They hunt

:02:52. > :02:58.down the enemy without boots on the ground. One former soldier with

:02:58. > :03:04.first-hand experience says drones make it too easy to kill. James

:03:04. > :03:08.Jeffrey was a captain in the British army in Afghanistan in 2009.

:03:08. > :03:14.He was monitoring live pictures from a drone when he saw what

:03:14. > :03:21.looked like a man planting a roadside bomb. He was about to call

:03:21. > :03:26.in a strike, someone else appeared. The individual was a lot larger,

:03:26. > :03:30.indicating it was a child in the middle of the road playing. At that

:03:30. > :03:38.point, the engagement was called off. It was an unsettling

:03:38. > :03:43.experience. I had almost engaged that target, who was a child.

:03:43. > :03:53.children have fallen victim. More than 170 have been reported killed

:03:53. > :03:54.

:03:54. > :04:00.in Pakistan. These figures cannot be confirmed. Shahzad Akbar from a

:04:00. > :04:07.legal charity is collecting these are fragments for use in a court

:04:07. > :04:14.action for the wounded and bereaved. The price is too high. The price is

:04:14. > :04:18.a large number of the civilian population which is being killed.

:04:18. > :04:24.Washington insists the price is worth paying. It says they are

:04:24. > :04:33.helping to win the war against Al- Qaeda. Critics say these missiles

:04:33. > :04:38.are now recruiting instrument for militants. When it comes to student

:04:38. > :04:44.loans Americans 01 trillion dollars, it is little surprise that the

:04:44. > :04:49.prospect for college graduates is crucial in November's presidential

:04:49. > :04:53.election. Despite paying for their education, half of university

:04:53. > :04:57.graduates are unemployed or under- employed. Many are worried about

:04:57. > :05:03.their future. We report from Philadelphia on which way they

:05:03. > :05:09.might be voting. Mac Robertson has just qualified as a lawyer, he can

:05:09. > :05:15.now put his logbooks away and turn his attention to the $170,000

:05:15. > :05:21.student debt. The whole gravity of it did not hit me until a few

:05:21. > :05:27.months ago. It is like, wait a second, that is not a number, that

:05:27. > :05:33.is representative of something. The joke has always been, I bought a

:05:33. > :05:39.house, really it is a bit more than that. If only she had bought a

:05:39. > :05:47.house. Unable to find a job he is moving to Texas to live with his

:05:47. > :05:54.parents. I'm 27 years-old. Even though it is rather typical of

:05:54. > :06:00.people... It is not culturally normative. Americans 01 trillion

:06:00. > :06:05.dollars in student loans. They are struggling to find work. Half of

:06:05. > :06:09.recent graduates are unemployed or under-employed. At Temple

:06:09. > :06:15.University students fear being tracked in low-paid jobs. I hope

:06:15. > :06:23.for the best, I know from previous experience, my brother had

:06:23. > :06:28.graduated from Penn. State, he has been searching for jobs and has not

:06:28. > :06:33.found anything. The student vote got Barack Obama into the White

:06:33. > :06:38.House four years ago. He is still likely to get most of their vote,

:06:38. > :06:44.but gone is the message of hope and change. Many people fear the

:06:44. > :06:49.American dream is under threat. No more so than on campuses like this

:06:49. > :06:56.one, students worry about being worse off than their parents.

:06:56. > :07:02.I worry about it every single day. I might not get a job. I might have

:07:02. > :07:07.to be in debt or my life. In a tough economy university is still

:07:07. > :07:12.seen as a good investment because non-graduates are faring even worse.

:07:13. > :07:17.Many students are having to lower their financial expectations.

:07:17. > :07:21.still have it in our minds that we are going to be better off than our

:07:21. > :07:25.parents. I also think that there is an understanding that we may have

:07:25. > :07:34.to redefine what it means to be better off. At least he can take

:07:34. > :07:38.comfort from the fact he never has to study from these books again.

:07:38. > :07:44.The violence in Syria is escalating by the day and thousands are

:07:44. > :07:49.fleeing to seek refuge in neighbouring countries. The UN says

:07:49. > :07:56.2.5 million Syrians unable to leave are now in need of support. Lina

:07:56. > :08:01.Sinjab has visited an age centre in Damascus. Supplies have just

:08:01. > :08:11.arrived. Each box contains a minimum to feed a family of five

:08:11. > :08:12.

:08:12. > :08:18.for one month. The centre is run by the Syrian Arab Red Crescent. Sabat

:08:18. > :08:26.al-Bisi is in her 60s, she lives in a suburb of Damascus, she has come

:08:26. > :08:31.to get her a share. She fled from Aleppo, she was forced to flee with

:08:31. > :08:37.her family because of the violence. Her husband is ill, she has six

:08:37. > :08:45.children and no bread winner. While she was happy talking on camera,

:08:45. > :08:51.others were not. This woman comes from Tadamon in Damascus. They had

:08:51. > :08:57.to flee, the whole family of six and living in one room. This centre

:08:57. > :09:04.is the only source of help. People here have come from different parts

:09:04. > :09:09.of the country. Everyone with their own grievances. They have lost

:09:09. > :09:13.homes, lives and their means of living. This is the main

:09:13. > :09:19.distribution centre for Damascus. The volunteers are working day and

:09:19. > :09:25.night. Khaled Ireksousi heads the operation. The material we are

:09:25. > :09:31.getting through all the donors is enough for around one million

:09:31. > :09:41.people. There are people we cannot help because we do not have enough

:09:41. > :09:44.

:09:44. > :09:50.materials. You hear a lot of outside sources talking about

:09:50. > :09:55.humanitarian needs. At the end, it is just talk. 20 people are living

:09:55. > :10:00.in this house. They fled from Homs and are too scared to appear on

:10:00. > :10:10.camera. They are relying on donations from other Syrians. This

:10:10. > :10:14.woman tells me they have led the shelling of the Army. -- fled. For

:10:14. > :10:19.more than one year people have shown a great spirit of solidarity

:10:19. > :10:28.to help the needy. As the crisis goes on, everyone is running out of

:10:28. > :10:30.resources. South Korea's education system is globally renowned, an

:10:30. > :10:33.intensely competitive national machine that turns out highly-

:10:33. > :10:39.motivated students and sends them to the world's top universities.

:10:39. > :10:42.But what happens if a child doesn't fit the prototype? Our Seoul

:10:42. > :10:49.correspondent has been taking a look at a very different side of

:10:49. > :10:51.South Korean education. To be successful in South Korea

:10:51. > :11:01.students need obedience, discipline and an insatiable appetite for

:11:01. > :11:07.

:11:07. > :11:09.study. At this alternative high school, success is measured

:11:09. > :11:13.slightly differently, in happiness, creativity, or even just the number

:11:13. > :11:16.of students awake in class. The curriculum offers board games as

:11:16. > :11:20.well as mathematics. Tattoos are as acceptable as school ties, you

:11:20. > :11:22.would not get away with this in a normal Korean school. This is where

:11:22. > :11:32.students come when they fall off South Korea's education conveyor

:11:32. > :11:39.

:11:39. > :11:42.belt. Goh Seung-Hwan is a catering student at the school, a would-be

:11:42. > :11:46.chef. He has a troubled past. TRANSLATION: There were too many

:11:46. > :11:53.regulations at my old school. I had trouble sticking to them. I got

:11:53. > :12:03.angry. I used to bully and fight with other kids. Then my parents

:12:03. > :12:08.

:12:08. > :12:11.got angry so I ran away from home. I got into other bad things. Here,

:12:11. > :12:14.he says the teachers are more relaxed and they teach at the

:12:14. > :12:16.students' own pace. South Korea's mainstream schools are hothouses of

:12:16. > :12:19.achievement and unhappiness. A recent government report has

:12:19. > :12:22.suggested 50% of students have considered quitting. With more than

:12:22. > :12:30.80% of them entering higher education, it is getting more

:12:30. > :12:33.pressured, not less. Many students say it is getting harder to compete

:12:33. > :12:39.for grades, for university places and jobs. The unemployment rate is

:12:39. > :12:43.twice the national average. Even students at top universities like

:12:43. > :12:53.this one are worried about what all those years of study will actually

:12:53. > :12:55.

:12:55. > :12:58.buy them. But 50 years ago education was patchy. Many

:12:58. > :13:02.successful entrepreneurs like Kim An-Sook never finished school.

:13:02. > :13:11.TRANSLATION: I never went to high school because my father could not

:13:11. > :13:15.afford to send me. There is a great need for alternative schools,

:13:15. > :13:18.especially in rural areas and for older women like me. She became a

:13:18. > :13:21.student in her 50s. An unexpected second chance in this highly

:13:21. > :13:24.competitive system. Her principal says his is a South Korean school

:13:24. > :13:26.without competition, anyone can come, everyone graduates. It may

:13:26. > :13:30.not fit South Korea's modern international image, but in a

:13:30. > :13:40.country bent on success, it raises an important question, what happens

:13:40. > :13:45.

:13:45. > :13:52.Clubs and pubs in Denmark are being urged to end up if they pay

:13:52. > :13:59.blackmail money to gangs. This came after a grandmother stood up to a

:13:59. > :14:09.group he demanded cash. She is being heralded as a hair when. This

:14:09. > :14:11.

:14:11. > :14:16.pub in the edgy district's of Norborough is overflowing. They are

:14:16. > :14:22.supporting the owner. TRANSLATION: It was a tough decision but I was

:14:22. > :14:26.not going to pay them. I don't want them to get away with it.

:14:26. > :14:31.Immediately after she took the stand, her windows were smashed but

:14:31. > :14:41.she did not surrender. If she had given to pressure, this would have

:14:41. > :14:47.continued on. By standing up, she has set a standard. I think she is

:14:47. > :14:54.pretty could -- courageous. She is doing what she thinks is right. I

:14:54. > :14:59.don't think she knows how courageous she is yet. Addis City

:14:59. > :15:05.Hall, officials pledged to end this mafia behaviour. The mayor's

:15:05. > :15:15.special adviser once victims to tip them off now that this woman has

:15:15. > :15:16.

:15:16. > :15:20.delivered a wake-up call. She has opens our eyes to a world we have

:15:20. > :15:30.heard rumours about. Denmark has an image of being a law-abiding

:15:30. > :15:32.

:15:32. > :15:36.country but the government believes is just a tip of the iceberg. They

:15:36. > :15:41.are canvassing the rest of the country to see how bad the rest of

:15:42. > :15:45.the problem is. Promises of a crackdown have come too late Bob

:16:02. > :16:06.TRANSLATION: I was attacked with Molotov cocktails. They were

:16:06. > :16:10.systematically ruining my business. One there were a few customers who

:16:10. > :16:16.left home, they would be followed and then attacked a round the

:16:16. > :16:21.corner. They scared them away and I had no income in the end. Camilla

:16:36. > :16:39.Afghanistan is gripped by football fever. It is glued to the country's

:16:39. > :16:43.first ever Premier League the competition. Thousands of fans have

:16:43. > :16:49.been turning out to the matches in Kabul and the games are being shown

:16:49. > :16:53.live on local TV. As Anbarasan Ethirajan reports from Kabul, it is

:16:53. > :16:58.a welcome relief. Like any other Premier League football match,

:17:04. > :17:13.to see armed police at the game. This is Afghanistan's first ever

:17:17. > :17:21.the White Mountain. There are eight teams in the league fighting for

:17:47. > :17:53.elsewhere in the world. This is Afghanistan's first ever commercial

:17:53. > :17:59.sporting venture. Like football on television is one of the ways

:17:59. > :18:04.organisers has promoted the game. Ratings are good and most games are

:18:04. > :18:09.sold out. The reaction from the fans in Kabul have been amazing.

:18:10. > :18:17.They are thrilled to watch a match in Kabul. In a way, football is

:18:17. > :18:20.helping them to forget the pains of war. Only in the second half,

:18:20. > :18:25.Eagles of the White Mountain said delay. Watching the game, a group

:18:25. > :18:30.of women supporters, rather unusual in Afghanistan. While women feel

:18:30. > :18:36.free to watch a sporting event, they can only do it by sitting in a

:18:36. > :18:41.segregated stand. It was 1-0 in the end. Players are delighted, not

:18:41. > :18:47.only with the performance but with what the league has to offer. He

:18:47. > :18:51.TRANSLATION: We get to play in front of thousands of fans and

:18:51. > :18:56.millions of people on TV. I am confident football will stay in

:19:12. > :19:16.Voodoo, too many, is seen as a dark religion or black magic but in a

:19:49. > :19:52.am told you can openly be at church in the morning and do figure in the

:19:53. > :19:57.afternoon without being bothered. It is very easy to do so because
