an. all right imposes sanctions on libya as the situation reaches new critical levels and fresh clashes reported between gadhafi sports says and the rebels. ministers put the libyan crisis in this saw its towards imposing a no fly zone those despoil resolution opposition from locals to any foreign intervention. well the u.s. vice president meets russian leaders in moscow and they're going to talk about libya among other things. now i've asked congress

should all hearings on the radicalization of america's muslims for fear of the start we'll look at what lies behind it and the fears that it's a little more than a religious which i. live for a mosque or you're watching our t.v. thanks for joining us now russia has decided to impose sanctions against gadhafi his regime banning the exports of weapons and military equipment but it's part of mounting pressure for action against libya following fresh clashes between rebels and the government shelling and airstrikes from colonel gadhafi supporters have pushed the opposition more than a thousand people are thought to have died since the uprising broke out almost a month ago locals are still united in their determination to keep out of foreign intervention and later on thursday nato defense officials and e.u.

foreign ministers will need to brussels to discuss what moves they could make our correspondent daniel bushell is there for us. makes a difference because to us here in brussels all made seem to decide all. in any course of action the military humanitarian wins the top pentagon official said that any action in libya should be taken under the umbrella of nato and britain and france are discussing i'm trying to get a resolution a common front on imposing a no fly zone across the libyan airspace i spoke to russia's envoy to nato military were goes in and here's what he had to say about the situation there it's like in russian classical theater even the first act of a performance there's a gun on the wall needs you to shoot in a second and it commission of weapons and military forces in the region could lead to war and that's why pumping up the stereo may reach the point of no return when

it becomes hard to explain why it was necessary to militarize citizens minds there's a real danger in using the science against libyan air bases to deprive gadhafi he's advantages no legal head of state then there will be attempts to legitimize the rebels to make it seem to the outside the power has passed from could duthie to the rebels and the country's leader colonel gadhafi has come out very strongly saying that the libyan people will oppose any military intervention by foreign forces he said the libyan people would rise up as one against any such fractions he said himself that his forces would respond strongly to any such imposition of a no fly zone little loan any military measures let's listen to what russia's nato envoy had to say on the issue of the situation on the ground in libya. of course would not in the recent situation in the middle east and north africa social

networks are actively used for organizing rebellious anti government movements i'm sure there is a mastermind behind it first of all reports from all needed to be companies with their own information sources to libya contain many words but little food which secondly. views are definitely proportioned those for gadhafi and narrowly presented while the protesters are widely represented it's help in is being formed there's no common front let alone between nato and non nato countries even within the nato alliance there's several disagreements pretty openly last night britain's foreign secretary foreign minister if you like william hague. that opposition is holding to the intervention of foreign forces he said that they still need to garner international support for any move and that international support is not there at the moment. well independent journalist keith harman so says the u.s.'s pumping out and take it off a propaganda to foster support for what he calls america's oil operation and libya

what we're getting is a u.s. program to go on one sided picture of the situation which kills the media with the idea that there's freedom fighters involved in the area and that there is a government regime and atrocious terrorist government for the last since nine hundred seventy roughly this is nonsense and we knew it was an established government whether we like them or not just is north korea and iran are established governments when you like them or not or the civilian government and their what's happening against them is a war of aggression we serving one side to portray the idea that could happen is the chair is to all these people have been killed in freedom fighters involved in it so it's a massive war operations been going on with the support of the involvement of italy france and britain since nine hundred seventy since nine hundred fifty nine when he was the discovered if the u.s. has had a case of their party and the idea is to convince you continue to convince the american public that genocide is happening in libya which is absolute nonsense and

therefore we need to take it you know the all powerful white american role is to go out there and save somebody that needs saving when they actually were involved in the killing because we're i believe we're supporting the rebels in libya well as the uncertainty over their future remains libyans continue filling the streets to try and overthrow colonel gadhafi but after weeks of fighting and bloodshed and many are lost as to how to achieve that authorities it's on a boy call who is in a rebel controlled bengazi reports a lack of control over the country could have devastating a long term effect. after the liberation chance the rattle of kalashnikovs is the most common sound in ghazi ever since rebels seized weapons depots in eastern libya rifles became the ultimate symbol of masculinity that every young man in this city once one thing in common between more market are free and of course the struggling chancy it here is a fascination with arms believe in leader

a developed a l liking for kalashnikov rifles so much so that he even had the end of a k forty seven and munition plant built here in libya that runs lease plant produced an hour telling all across eastern libya on the frontlines and beyond young man with rifles have become a fixture on the streets of the ghazi they're eager to show them off and often slap happy in their handling of the arms. a soldier from the bin gassy garrison who joined there freising says many of his fellow rebels don't have any experience with arms as he says is made out by their passionate determination of the will fight until the last bullets to the last drop of blood god is on. this cd have been ghazi is still living off of the revolutionary fever from dusk till dawn people congregate on the city's main square calling for gadhafi to go most of the factories are closed the only people still working

a shop owners there is good to know. many people know people and public servants like these traffic police officer and despite the loss of control over is to leave there because of the government continues to pay salaries to those employed by the state of those men would have yes i received my last paycheck about ten days ago but that is nothing to thank you duffy for my salary is just two hundred fifty dinars with can barely support my family agitation and surgeons. of the last few weeks are already exerting their toll on public health in gaza psychiatric hospital is now flooded with patients whose preexisting conditions were exacerbated by the unrest nowadays because of the uprising lots of people is suffering from the so-called banneker shoulders. some of our patients also having elapses from their previous mention problems

now because of the. uprising because of the shooting. hated and really killed get out he may be the most valuable asset for the opposition movement as that hatred pulls people together for the time being it's united's those who spent years serving in his government and the victims of his persecution yet their chance for free leave yet to be augmented by a clear vision of how to achieve it and it is very hard to try to determine who could be the real charismatic leader the real strong structure that could come in on the ground or it could say well i am well known by then we have a program of some horizons and i will be able to achieve or to be the alternative that will gain or the true help achieving better perspectives and a better horizon in media people indian gazi are now leaving all of their savings

sharing whatever little they have most of them are confident that one is good enough that leaves the bright future will dawn on them but if past revolutions are anything to go by their bundles of arms and hordes of idly roaming man could mean exactly the opposite. of what the artsy been gazi libya. and later this hour a former british ambassador to libya talks to r.t. oliver miles tells us that many of the stories coming from libya. when true with the real situation talk of a no fly zone is premature or hear some of what we'll hear from him later on. brought from the beginning of the conflict from the stories of the attacks on the civilian population but i don't know of a single authenticated case i think we've all probably had the experience i don't myself. the media correspondents are telephoning anyone they can find in libya and

the story you get from everybody is all right here where i am the same shooting and it sounds nasty but i'm not going outside to look and yes i have heard stories of bombs but none of them in my area seems to be a good general picture so i don't believe it really i think is just proportional for the moment to talk about a new fly zone. or talk of international involvement in libya is going to be tough to avoid for the u.s. vice president who is on day two of his visit to moscow russia has stopped arms our exports to libya but maintains that stance against military intervention you know trouble is following joe biden's visit for us. we know that the united states along with several other countries are considering imposing a no fly zone over libya and russia strongly opposes the plan pulled the president and the prime minister to retire waited they would not back any military any international intervention in libya russia has a veto on the u.s.

curiously council which means that without russia saying yes to that plan we could not be enforced another interesting thing is what washington could potentially offer to moscow in exchange for its voice be with us as it once was the case with iran and north korea it was mentioning as well that russia is actually taking a very very reasonable approach when it comes to the middle east crisis and when it comes to leading up to tikrit italian press office today reported that the president signed a ban on exporting any weaponry and military hardware to this country the agenda of joe biden in moscow was very robust as he's been meeting with the president is about to meet the prime minister also he'll be holding talks with the opposition leaders however it seems the focus these time is on building stronger economic ties immediate political thought the united states accounted for less than four percent of russia's external trade last year that is a cause way beyond the potential for the two sides are working on that and of

course w. tale was on the agenda the u.s. supports russia's efforts to join the world trade organization that is much more than any other beating country and russia is the only world's largest economy which is not a member to the club it is hoped however that by beyond of this year russia could finally enter the world trade organization joseph biden indeed introduced for the first time this phrase push the reset button and now two years on after the approach was introduced we really see the first practical results of that a new strategic arms reduction treaty the peaceful nuclear cooperation agreement much deeper collaboration on iran and north korea on afghanistan that is what both sides describe as when wins are the result. all stay in touch around the clock online at r.t. dot com and here is what some of the news analysis on the web site right now these are real some fortune with i remember seeing right turn it takes to moscow's retro

kora museum. and discover how it has steam that i got on when they came up against brazilian football legends from past and present i became to the russian republic for a friendly match. oh hearings will soon get underway in the u.s. congress over the radicalization of american muslims they're being led by homeland security chairman peter king who says they are vital to protect the country but as artie's kill him for reports critics say there are disturbing parallels to america's notorious political witch hunts of the one nine hundred fifty s. . during america's second red scare this was the accusation to answer. today

it's this why muslim leaders are not doing enough to cooperate with law enforcement there's actually been instances of the mobs instructing the people in their mosques not to cooperate with law enforcement accusations of disloyalty subversion treason made not by some pundit you're a wonder of radical islam there's a slight neighborhood you live in and the monterey operates there are but by the chairman of the congressional homeland security committee republican pete king who is launching his highly publicized hearings on the radicalization of muslims in america we know how evil was enemy is we have to confront it. it's a present to all muslims when we don't single out islamic terrorists it's almost as if we are afraid to insult more because we're targeting the terrorists through their roots but king dismisses the critics who say the hearings unfairly single out muslims every criticism here is

a very serious knee jerk liberal left wing reactions to the politically correct establishment despite criticism from the right and the left at the mere announcement of the hearings king says he won't back down we're going to name those names we're going to have expert witnesses and will do what we have to do which worries critics like history professor alan tracker we've always had our scapegoats today it's muslims in the one nine hundred fifty s. it was communists they said a congressman from new york is following in the footsteps of the senator from wisconsin joseph mccarthy focusing on people's associations in this case religious rather than political but calling them. in public and exposing them to some kind. sanctions whether it's just e-mails whether. dismissals are workplace sanctions. so that despite muslim leaders cooperation with

the f.b.i. they're continuously viewed as the enemy especially since the end of the cold war the words thrives on war and it throws conflict there for. us so we became. the new carmen and according to a department of homeland security study islamic extremists are seen as a threat in thirty one states while neo nazi and white supremacist cells groups left out of king's homeland security hearings are seen as a threat in all but four when we talk about terrorism in the united states what who've been the terrorists you know some poor pathetic nut in arizona timothy mcveigh in oklahoma city these are the people who are killing americans and . most critics on the right and the left the absence of mccarthyism are troubling last month he also introduced the see something say something designed to prevent

citizens from lawsuits when they report suspicious activity but critics say it amounts to little more than informing on each other much as they did during mccarthyism and the cold war killing ford r. t. washington d.c. and senior giuliani who's a muslim american doctor and journalist says the u.s. is witnessing a people being singled out just for their religion. it is a very disturbing time in america when we are singling out a group of people based on their religion or their ethnicity or their race which is certainly what is happening here and. kenya calls for hearings to investigate the radicalization of american homegrown terrorism in regards to muslim americans i would i would agree that there is a problem in terms of terrorism and violence in this country but i would just ask why are muslim americans being singled out well we are becoming is someone

a country and nation who finds it acceptable to put people on trial for their religion and to put people on trial for what they believe i'm an american citizen that was born in this country and the america that i feel so strongly for and love would not single out a group of people based on their religion. to look at some other international news in brief for you this hour a powerful earthquake hitting almost six on the richter scale house trucks china's southwest near the border with me and more at least fourteen people have been killed and around one hundred fifty injured but witnesses report people being burned under debris were part of a supermarket and the hotel caved in the from our cause serious damage to other buildings that was followed by three aftershocks within a few minutes. of britain's foreign secretary has condemned after u.k. and nato forces seized what they say were a ring of robin's heading for the taliban in afghanistan william hague believes the

inflation and perhaps domestic information in many areas including russia starts to get out of control and then with a very very difficult situation when central banks will have no option but to increase rates. signature comes a moment which definitely would push many economists across standstill because the cost of printing the cost of money would increase and that would be not helpful from the point if you will for coverage. let's look at the markets and most asian stock markets were lower on thursday way by higher priced and he lost nearly one out of the center hang sang was down point eight percent exporters are in the red and tokyo with sony and say you are losing around two percent hong kong stocks are under pressure following the news about an unexpected seven seven billion dollars trade deficit in china. and european stock markets drop in early trading as all
