cooperating with u.s. forces. >> it is not the ctes mu as it is that there are names, operations, logistics, sources, all information that are now have the potential to do harm if someone is cooperating with the federal government and their name is listed in an action report. i do not think it is a stretch to believe that that could potentially put a group or an divial at greapersonal ri. >> earlier, i spoke with our washington correspondent. i asked him what more details about the reaction in the u.s. to those leaks. >> robert gibbs says that the president is very concerned about this breach of national security. but, as you said, he pointed out that nothing is really new.

in particular, the idea of how the pakistani intelligence doe possibly corporate with the taliban -- he said repeatedly that the president, in march 2009, said that we know pakistan has mixed records here. we do not issue a blank check. that suggests that the american aid for pakistan is not changing after the release of these documents. they are also trying to discredit the founder of wikileaks. in the interview, the founder said that this compares to the release of the starshe arives in sterma. robert gibbs says that we completely disagree with that, comparing u.s. soldiers with east german secret police. >> will be any consequences for u.s. military strategy in

seek the opportunity to allay concerns about its nuclear program and will set a date for reviewing -- resuming talks. >> a tribunal has convicted the first former khmer rouge official in connection with atrocities under pol pot's activities in cambodia. he has been sentenced to 35 years in prison for crimes against humanity. but he will only serve 19 years in jail as he had been held illegally pending tri. almost two million people were harmed by the khmer rouge in what was known the killing field. there might be a change of leadership at the bp oil company. >> it certainly looks like he is going after all, according to british media reports. the c o of bp, -- that ceo of bp will be stepping down.

person that has been tarnished by the bad spill brush. that is a good thing. also, a lot of americans will be pleased to see that the person that is the favorite to replace tony hayward is an american himself. that will certainly help the image of the company. >> of dudley, an american bp executive comes from mississippi. he has been in charge of cleanup operations in the gulf since june. america's worst oil spill is turning out to be an economic and public relations disaster for bp. on tuesday, the company presented figures for the second quarter. >> european stock markets to give a ctious thumbs-uto tho banking stress test results on monday appeared 19 european banks were given the once over to see how stable they are. but deutsche bank shares were published -- were punished because it refused to publish a much sovereign debt it owns.

euromaxx. >> a germantown is grieving after saturday's love parade tragedy. 20 people were killed. authorities are coming under increasing prsurever th organizational and security arrangements. police in the city have defended their handling of the situation. they say they had been controlling the flow of visitors all along the pedestrian tunnel all along. obviously, " somethinsomething t horribly wrong. politicians are already calling for consequences to be drawn. but many people who were on the scene are already drawing their own conclusions. > the people started climbing

onto the ceiling with their bare hands. that is pretty serious. those who were in charge did not open up the fences. i do not understand it. you cannot lock people like that. they should have moved to the fence is a way much earlier. >> when i looked around, when i looked do, i saw lots bodi just ing there. i cannot believe it. people just died there. >> who is to blame? the organization. right from the start, the location was not big enough, in my opinion. i cannot see how that area would be big enough for 1.4 million people. i do not think it is right to blame the police alone could i think the planning should have gone different from the start.

> the only explanation i can come up with is that the organizers built up a huge amount of pressure related to the region being the european capital of culture this year, bringing in the media and appealing to politicians. >> if security issues are dodged for commercial reasons, that is punishable by law. if the venueis said to be suitable for a 200,000 to 300,000 and then a 1.5 million shot, that is way too many. i am sure that heads will roll because of this. -- 1.5 million show up, that is way too many. i am sure that heads will roll because of this. >> people there sounded very angry.

my colleague, and young, was in the city over the weekend. we ask them about the sense he got. >> when i was in desperate last night, sunday night, talking to people who had come down to the site, it was to express their grief and to express anger. they filled that the -- they felt that the organizers and the police bear the responsibility for this tragedy. everyone called for a quick investigation. everybody was very disappointed about the official reaction, the press coerence held stery. the auorities did not seem to be ready to take their share of the responsibility end of people we spoke to said that that was a scandal. it was quite clear that organizational failures had happened. there was a lot of criticism of

the police. >> officials are under a lot of pressure over the arrangement. i love people had warned that the site for the festival was inappropriate. -- a lot of people had warned that the site was inappropriate. >> yes. bloggers on the intnet and know all about the love parade had been saying for weeks that they thought that this site at the railway yard was not appropriate for holding and nant of this scale. most of the criticism is on the plan of the one tunnel being used for exits. alternative emergency exits were blocked with the emergency vehicles. so it is hard to understand how at cld he en the ce. also, there is the question of why they did not have any space% for emergency vehicles to get in

if there were any incidents. that was one of the real problems, they could not reach the dying people. questions remain about the organization there. >> below parade took place in berlin for many years without any such incident. what was the difference? >> the key difference is that this is a smler city in. --maller city. it was the first time that the leopard had come there. it had been held at different -- the love parade had come there. it had been held in different places over the last few years. they did not have the experience or how the visitors of the love parade would react. they said that they expected only a quarter of a million people to enter the festival, the party area at any one time. i do not see how they could have expected that igivethat everyone knew that more than a

million visitors were expected. the authorities there were a little bit out of their death. >> simon young, we thank you for that. the love parade was billed as the biggest techno party in the world. it is now over for good. the organizers say they're discontinuing the event. however, the issue of crowd control is not a new one. it is something that plays a key part majorvents around t world. the love pare is not the only large event organized here in germany. officials have a great experience in crowd control here. there is the munich octoberfest or sports tournament, like the 2006 world cup which was hosted by germany. >> 2006, the soccer world cup in germany -- fans across the country turned up in the thousands to watch the game in

public viewing areas. in berlin alone, milons watched germany against in the tournament. the events passed without incident. the location was key, surrounded by the park. there was a safety buffer all around it. people could easily escape and emergency services had easy access. safety precautions were missing at the love parade. panic has been avoided at many other mass gatherings. in 2005, 1 million people took part in world youth day, a catholic festival held that year. lessons from panic research work followed in planning the event, helping to what problems, especially in the narrow lanes of cologne's old town. crowds were sent through one-way areas to make sure they cannot co-lead -- they could not

collide. millions of pilgrims converged on the saudi city every year. on many occasions, many lives have lost. the major disaster was in 2006 when more than 350 people died and many more were injured. the saudi authorities responded by seeking advice from the german researcher who had been consulted for the world youth day in cologne. it was an enormous challenge for the experts. but they were able to come up with a concept that brought structure and order into the chaos of the haj. so far, that concept has worked. but even the experts said met -- but even the experts admit that it is difficult and risk to life and limb is always there.
