about this is a media outlet and into not what side which made itself a name by being among these four terrorist local mark this web site is banned in russia as well as in a number of other countries across the world but in finland it enjoys what it called simple location will only lead to not sending downtown hudson. how much more does all these organizations are in the very center of the city now you have the laurie was the first and the only man in the months to hold police say that this was outrageous and that finland should not shelter extremist organizing since he was not really surprised when up for a short while he was getting death threats from people members of these organizations and those letters was signed by google microsoft but what he wanted police police and fillin seem to be a little interested in the. d.c. e-mail came from. and here's the cool motto of terrorists. some body. or somebody turned to

me got my head away if i called you know my fight against officer but you've done your personal investigation your own be so focused on the phone and delivered finished please choose the day our guide to that. is the president also part of the government and therefore. responsible person respectable person going to do anything is go. on some recap on who's these respectable person indeed is some of his most famous claimed atrocities are the new skates press for me i want to train was blue not on its way from us which is sad because work in two thousand nine. hundred twenty turned and most recently the suicide bombing on the country's largest airport the idea that. he's not only russia's most wanted man double murder he's also on the international east of terrorists recently the us

knowledge of the fact that he has links to al qaida so with all that in mind the question is what is the phrase persecuted for all this lee for citing the facts which the rest of the world knowledge is except apparently finland what other countries like russia see as a terrorist finland deems as a freedom fighter. for it israel thanks very much indeed for bringing us the details of this case you're trying to target here. john batman the chairman of the finnish caucus friendship society says film one stance is attracting terrorists to the country. protect the image of promoting the risk of a cuban so for more of them he's so golden roots. in fact that we will bring. him into finland which actually is the folk to do because we have an aggressive. for. what seems to be more for members of the local musician. coding are

programmed in finland while people like them are gathered to have their same film underworld continues to be on high terror alert just overnight and several bombs were diffused in moscow a powerful load of t.n.t. with no it was taken from a car stopped by traffic police as well as almost half a pill but suppose it's the arrest the driver also had in our marriage this film it calls the arrest of a thirty eight year old member of islamic jihad in the capital wednesday he also possessed an explosive device. more on this now website r.t. dot com where we're also following the development of a finnish priest case as well as all the other stories we'll bring you any can also get in-depth analysis of the events we cover from leading experts and politicians that's r.t. dot com. u.k. officials are investigating libyan claims that british planes destroyed the arab states largest oil field killing three guards the field was reportedly controlled

by could obvious forces and the alleged bombing comes as the gravel sand the first tanker ship loaded with oil to tar his policy or joins us live from tripoli for more appalled what are the libyan and the british side saying about this incident. well from the beginning of this whole conflict the government here in tripoli has accused the international community of economy and world in the bin affairs because of their own self interest the government saying that their self interests are motivated around the production of oil what we think of the libyan foreign ministry is that pushes all planes had hits and oil base in the south east of this country that is owned and operated by gadhafi three people were killed several people were wounded and it is not immediately clear what was the military value in hitting an oil field other than perhaps trying to stop gadhafi getting his hands on money that comes from the selling and the exporting of oil now the libyan foreign ministry has said that this is an act of aggression it says it violates international law and it

violates a un resolution one ninety seven three because it is not protecting civilian lives what we are hearing here in tripoli itself is people are asking the question what motivated british planes to take on the bases we need to be to fly all the way to let you have two kids and oil fields so that people here is also interesting is that there has perhaps been a change in tactics now at the same time the rebels for the first time since i've been recognized by foreign governments have begun exporting crude oil a tanker with a consignment with some one hundred million dollars has left the fate of the book we understand that it will go via qatar and from there it will reach the international markers. so paula how is the situation developing on the ground at the moment. but here in tripoli everybody is keeping tight lipped busy lot of talking a lot of rumors in terms of what's happening behind the scenes certainly there is the sense that could happen might be softening his stance the latest word we still

hearing is that there is a deal on the table that would perhaps even transferring power to one or two of his sons in some kind of constitutional democracy but again no one here in tripoli actually confirming that the american government has dismissed unless it is that gadhafi himself wrote to the american president. iraq obama he urged the american administration to adhere to a cease fire the urge for the american president to stop the airstrikes for the offered nothing in return as well as the front line as it has for several days now it is still centered around the eastern oil town of brega now we have been hearing that the rebels are making some kind of advancements but those advancements are very minor particularly in light of nato it strikes nato has been unable to hold the rebels to advance and it's been unable to prevent the duckies forces themselves from advancing eastwards i wanted me coming up the mormon criticism is nato itself the rebels are accusing it of not doing enough to help when they say that nato is

type of army in the majors some thirty percent of the duckies military might facing is another seventy percent that is still being used against them in the dock the regime point side those accusing nato of actually creating civilians involved in the conflict continues to insist that civilians are being killed in these nature is strikes and it says that nato motivates itself by saying it wants to protect civilian lives not only is it doing the opposite but it's also taking sides in this conflict that is increasingly moving to the brink of some kind of civil war that nato has defended itself by saying recognize the soldiers are disguising themselves in civilian clothing that very often they firing from among the civilian population and particularly in the western city of misrata where we are hearing that a bloodbath is underway nato says it cannot get involved it is fights there because the fighting is happening from within the civilian population not my colleague in benghazi explored the role of nato in this conflict. a veteran of the

libyan army moves girl abdul ghani su she's going all the way to retirement but now he's fighting for the revolution and he's among the few rebels at the front with military training and experience. forces are not even we are ready to fight to the death because these weapons. we don't stand a chance against gadhafi since needing to control the north winds on operation it's going to need more than one thousand sorties into libya including four hundred technicians the un's claims are on the third of got at least forces have now been destroyed but despite help from the skies on the ground the rebels are still taking a pounding. and later a three year old there are civilians in a strike and we daily have many marketers and yes they have been doing taking proper actions against the gadhafi troops for the rebels taking the town of bragg a means clearing the way west well just when it seemed they were at the doors of

the world which they're on a new series of more syntax by going to have these forces here already can retreat . just a week ago because it was a revolution really seems the entire cd police need for its support because the fraud blanket is to that list of girls missing a week it seems to me all these for us is tactics is raising as well broadcasts like this one are becoming a common scene i mean are accusing media of feeling to protect civilians they are asking for help anymore the i demanded it. all of their way to fall for gadhafi to kill or still we demand a new u.n. resolution which would allow me nuts. but experts say arming the rebels warm helps

win the war with the rebels need is not so much so you can use the arms without training means that we force on our servicing that the u.s. and egypt are. going to be forces going beyond me you wanted allusion that established the north winds are you going to spin off the. libyan situation requires a delicate balance between respecting sovereignty and facing up to the responsibility of protecting the people there from gadhafi forces so says jesse ventura a former governor of minnesota is interviews coming up next hour but here's a quick look. libya is difficult because it certainly puts everyone between a rock and a hard place and one here and you feel well that's libya's business it's their country if they want to overthrow their leader or change whatever they do in their country you know it's their business to do so is it necessarily our business you

know but here's the rock and a hard place with a double edged sword you also dog while a genocide or a slaughter take place because let's face it could offer us all the guns and weapons and by the way where do you think you get some problem. where. we're the biggest arms dealer in the world. russia is working to help ease the israeli palestinian conflict as a host of third leader from the middle east in the space of a fortnight that's a president of the head of magic dar of jordan and moscow these are really the list goes on following developments for us here because so tell us what's come out of this latest meeting. well it this is this is the third meeting between the russian president and the middle eastern leader in just under a month the meeting between a russian president's initiative. and jordanian king abdullah the second took place

in the president's mosca region residence gorky and in part russian president has expressed hope that despite in very hard beginning very difficult beginning of the here the middle eastern peace process talks will proceed without further glitch killed so said that he's hoping that died so other that god said the u.n. and other channel get as ations of force will step up their efforts in improving the situation and improving the effectiveness of the peace talks between israel and palestine and he also said that russia is hoping very much that's the un. the un resolutions will be observed in these instances now king abdullah the second in turn his thanks russia for their involvement in the peace process in the middle east of course is it's this is a very difficult time for these processes right now because a lot of international observers are fearing that the on the rest that's going on in northern africa and this sweeping over the middle east will not have

a positive effect on talks between israel and palestine and hence king abdullah the second has said that it's more important than ever for russia to use its power and influence in the region in order to stabilize the situation now later in the taking about second will also meet with russian prime minister was met with him he is in fact the first time middle eastern leader of the countries that have done more among the countries who have sustained unrest in recent months in the middle east who have paid a visit to leave his country and come to moscow and the reason for that is because unlike in other places like libya in georgia the the king and the government are already carrying out reforms and so the unrest that did take place there earlier this year have stabilized and the country by words of king abdullah the second is on its way to peaceful reforms. all right thanks very much indeed. ridiculous compare. and option of last resort that's how portugal's prime minister

has described the country's request for a financial bailout from the e.u. the worst case scenario for the european economy is looming analysts say fearing that spain could be the next victim of the death contagion rescue plan for portugal is likely to top one hundred billion us dollars with anger set to spread around you right over there you taxpayers having to pick up the bill the country has long resisted taking a bailout meringue the actions of greece and ireland may soon exhaust the patience of theirs and plunge the global economy and just further trouble according to karl denninger market picker. i think the first question one has to ask is where is the credibility behind the projections of both the european union and over here in america we've heard of stress tests we were told that everything was ok a the banks

were turning around and buying us debt thinking that they were going to be backstopped and now all of a sudden whoops portugal isn't ok and as recently as a week ago we were told they were going to need a bailout so this is the third time and i'm wondering how long before the market says ok that's enough i don't think wall street per se is responsible for portugal there were a lot of allegations that wall street banks were running derivatives in greece i don't know that we are really got to the bottom of that but for chicle it's just simply a matter of we're spending more than we're making which incidentally is what we're doing in the united states as well and finally people are throwing up their hands and saying we don't think we're going to get paid and that's where the problem always comes from i think the primary thing to consider is credibility because that is all a government or an individual or a business has and when it's lost it's very hard to get it back so we have gone down this road now for four years where we have made claims that we could fix this with a to b. using interest. course and all the other platitudes it always happens or deficit is

skyrocketing we most certainly do every longer than portugal or even stream goes in this regard but it's not infinite here on the lawmakers in washington seem to have this idea that we can continue to play this game on an indefinite basis here is a wind in the sea and beyond which international investors in particular are going to throw their hands up and say we're just not going to deal with this anymore and they're not federal reserve is look we all pay a choice. and latest edition of the kaiser report explores the plight of the u.s. economy further as well as lifting the lid on murky links between banking and the drugs trade for programs coming up later today but here's a preview. let me tell you something stacey i remember just very vividly when i was working on was the 1980's every friday cocktails on park avenue and watch this parade of limousines travel down park avenue into the basement of citibank everyone knew this was money that was being loaded by citibank from drug

money this was an open secret nobody got out of this so i'm glad to see now twenty at least twenty twenty five years later people begin to understand that the global finance community the global banking system runs entirely on cocaine which. said now on the other stories making headlines around the world and i'm rico's forces loyal to the internationally recognized election winner tarr have laid siege to the incumbent leader is residence but comes after a handsome dr laurent gbagbo promised a presidential palace where he's holed up u.n. and french troops continue to conduct air strikes on military targets throughout the tension comes in a failed efforts to negotiate the departure of bagwell from the country while he claims he has no intention of stepping down. after it's underway at japan's fukushima power plant to prevent explosions near workers are injecting nitrogen into one reactor to stop. the high we find of all hydrogen inside and from blowing

and women put into their professions one of the thing they fear is something a little more about it and that's an unwavering a childhood dream of literally reach for something big aspiring cosmonauts. intently as the so you see i'm a twenty one spacecraft is hoisted to its vertical position at only fourteen he's so certain about his future that he's already made headway he went to the u.s. and became the first youngster to spend fifteen minutes floating in a zero gravity environment hoskin arts training. i thought the same weight of my body as if it was. my hands but this early start is something the first man in space utica god in could himself have related to. his feet fifty years ago marked the beginning of a long list of achievements in manned space exploration.

from walking on the moon. to building the massive international space station. but it doesn't stop there next possibly a hotel in orbit yet another space dream which for this hotel project there will be forums at the station with enough room for seven people there will be to be illuminated so that everyone could observe the earth and stars i've always wanted to become a cosmonaut that didn't happen but i'm sure that one day i'll travel to space tourist price tag is a hefty thirty five to forty billion dollars but there is a cheaper alternative another project aims to send space tourists to lower earth orbit where they'll spend five minutes in zero gravity and see the planet in its entirety for two hundred thousand dollars goes to some large groups of people one hundred kilometers above ground will be able to seal planets and the course. to do

this they plan to use the ability of this flame to carry cargo on its body the plane will take off with a small space shuttle which will be released at a certain altitude but arguably the most of business of space projects is the mars five hundred experiment simulating a voyage to the red planet in the event this global ambitions becomes reality and when that time comes young sergei is certain he'll be ready to take on the challenge not mars i want to be the first to travel to mars and to other planets as well as the means of jupiter saturn you see can live there in future. and like many space men and women he believes it will only be a matter of time does our cilia r.t. baikonur in kazakhstan as a world gears up to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the first manned space flight into iran by entering our special competition test create something inspired by the iconic image of the first human space yuri gagarin could be anything from
