of the country's oil wealth and it is not at all helping libyans really about a power grab. power grab more include controlling the resources beast or even the people crowded i mean as they had a crisis. in the i.m.f. the world bank. and structurally just weren't meeting what we needed weight of. haitian ordinary libyans to get out of the you know demographic by anybody in libya is free education free no wrong way you go on archie's military contributor says it's the lack of purpose and unity within the alliance that is leading the country into a deadly stalemate maitreya's four of sheer wishful thinking.

that is a far as alleviate conflict he's concerned have you ever thought who actually is in charge of that western humanitarian bombing and leave you think about it first what started as a successful frame intelligence coup to go us against america this year in february god demand to and overtly expanded into the u n a resolution behind the united states and its pale eyes were involved and in full fledged western military operation in libya now ease the charge of the western military effort to leave france the united states and nato allies in fact even in washington and brussels they can figure out themselves who actually he's leading their western efforts this solution to leave in conflict has

been happy with sli lost so far between the disunity off efforts and between the united states and nato and allies at large instead of saving the elite b. and people desperately trying to save their faces and their political careers. now as artie's military contributor you've got a crucial and coming up in the program russia's pm gets to skate on. who can get his moves together and joins a team russia for a practice session. guests from outer space r.t. goes to russia's most alien visited region to meet the eye witnesses who say the truth is out there plus. this country ran away from england be quite so of royalty and kings and queens and that the british wanted let them do it but the americans the big fights in eighty. it's so ridiculous. as royal wedding if the

verse weaves the world he's a roving reporter laura harvest is in new york where for some the celebrates rory mood is a little more subdued and much more subtle. washington is being accused of failing to protect the young victims of sex trafficking with many of them ending up in prison instead of finding help according to f.b.i. estimates there are at least one hundred thousand to child sex slaves in the u.s. and it's ours he's going to choose she can reports even if they manage to get off the street the victims find it impossible to rebuild their lives. the u.s. state department regularly puts out reports on how horrific human trafficking is in other countries but right under the government's very nose in washington dozens of girls and boys are sold. just walks away from capitol hill where on the street that's known as the heart for lobbyists and lawyers in washington that's why day at

night this is where scores of prosecutors walk to get picked up and killed when the average age of thirteen are also being trafficked here to washington and seoul the f.b.i. estimates that each year more than one hundred thousand underage american girls are exploited for commercial sex in the united states but the usual treatment that children get when arrested is either jail time or probation in the us prostitution laws do not exam for minors from prosecution the office of juvenile justice and delinquency prevention reported one thousand and six hundred juveniles were arrested for prostitution within just one year lawyer saying the u.s. the paradox of the system is that the children are prosecuted for crimes for which they cannot legally give consent we say that this child is a victim and yet we send her ciccio somewhere along the line there's something wrong with that and we need to be taken a look at ourselves and i look at the fact that we have we have made the tension and we have made law enforcement in the criminal justice system in the juvenile

justice system a default setting for what happens to these kids we want to make sure that these children are treated as victims but treating the victims and providing for their recovery requires funding and fortunately there is a better all money for us for instance of trafficking tina front works with a nonprofit group in washington which helps the children to get their lives back providing housing and medical treatment she herself was trafficked at the age of thirteen can a says it's easier for the government to label the children as prostitutes charge them and send them to detention centers rather than fun shelters and invest in their future there's not enough housing for sex trafficking victims at our around the country there's. thousand about eighty which includes mine that's it anyway and so what they're saying is so for their safety we will arrest them and put them in jail. so the case is further saved but they don't get any services and we charge the victim almost all of the victims of child trafficking remember being

constantly raped and abused both by payment some clients and many of the young people that we serve have been incarcerated and charged as an adult under the age of sixteen and so they have this lengthy fifteen twenty thirty forty arrests both as a juvenile and as an adult for prostitution and so when they go to apply for public housing then i would support for that when they go to do certain employment that pops up in their background check these children is already scarred as it is and the nonprofit organizations that help victims of sex trafficking say by prosecuting the children by not investing in their recovery it is the government that is sorry their future is going to check our reporting from washington our team. the u.k. animosity between the country's largest gypsy community and a nearby town has come to travelers who are being told to leave their home of decades so they won't go without a fight and his art is war and reports human dignity is being sacrificed simply to

increase prices. it's an age old story traveller communities being moved on because they're not welcome where they settle dale farm is the u.k.'s largest gypsy and travel a site where one of the biggest if exceptions in british history is being planned and the council's accused of ethnic cleansing gulf war kids living in fear found there has been no protest in year and. it's only it's only physically and words with travellers have been living at dale farm since the one nine hundred seventy s. the settlement started off small and the trouble began when new comers came and bought land around it then they built homes without legal permission in the local town feelings run high many people told us the travellers are messy and noisy driving the crime rate up and property values down almost refused to talk on camera

saying they feared violent retribution those who did were more guarded i think that everybody should buy their way in the way of rights in texas but i don't believe they did the people that live around them know their past prices go down as anything else it is a problem and might be some temporarily without might be a part of rest of us so you know they should be treated as a reporter i understand their plight but you know yes just not as you know you shouldn't be there initially growing just because it is but others say the lands the travelers built on was scrapyard not greenbelt and the travel is a big persecuted because of their different way of life it's all or more for protection of the green and i do not think that some that particular bit constitutes a steinmetz in any way i agree that there are always people in every community who you know mess up things but this is common in every single community within the country it is not unique to travelers and gypsies and in fact dale farm is

a consuming really. critical. compared with many states with. whatever the truth battles in council voted overwhelmingly to get the charcoal it out and a cool sort of backs them up but it won't come cheap with litigation. and will be a two month long continuous operation. that rises to eighteen million including the police operation a staggering twenty nine million dollars a particularly huge sum in austerity britain cuts a big made to council. country the cost of the eviction hasn't deterred the council they are north of threats of violence from the travellers battle lines are being

movie pool. the british royal wedding is still two weeks away but the hype has already reached fever pitch from twitter to newspapers there's no getting away from the big day for prince william and kate middleton. new york where reactions are somewhat polarized with little middle ground. are you sick of the media's nonstop coverage of the royal wedding this week let's

talk about bet this country ran away from england because of of royalty and kings and queens it's just because they're born into a stupid family if the british wanted and i can do it but the americans to be. fascinating. it's so ridiculous get a life already or eventually this brings our a force for reform so strange like in in japan or something like that well in my opinion really we don't need is it good for people to have thoughts away from serious things or is that just a distraction good to this group of yours if you will was think about the problems you have. no you could have in your life when you came to yourself do you care about the royal wedding yes they care that you need. to proudly she because we have a niece of britain a scone me our prime minister there through

a visa who. takes it all the senior so so you have your own big media story yeah but is it good for our culture does it enrich just as a people i don't necessarily think it hurts us as a people to know what the queen or the future queen is going to we have to haul a wedding it doesn't hurt me it doesn't hurt me any it doesn't take anything away it doesn't come you down it doesn't tell me no it does not whether or not you want to be inundated with the media's vapid fluffy news stories the bottom line is they're not going to stop with them any time soon the only real answer is to keep that remote control close and hands. from a royalty. things out of this world u.f.o. hunters chasing aliens on earth are likely to be cast in a jealous science some in southern russia what looks like a number of visitors from space have been caught on camera and eyewitnesses of

skeptical about the sighting and many can be explained but not all of them. crossing the region has a very horrific quincey or real extraterrestrial activity. in the whole country and in places like sore cheek which is a big city that stretches along with. there is of course a better chance to spot something unusual so why all this interstellar traffic and the russian south maybe they're getting sneak preview of the sochi olympics. or maybe they're just like the place whatever it is the truth is out there somewhere there is ball ski r.t. cross in the region. yuri gagarin's a life that still fascinates people his death still raises questions our special report on the first man in space is coming up for you next hour. chosen from among many. he was given
