fifty five five. fifty . he needed to give us a big lead and we could call it feel good but cherry can't see his body we threw him in the ocean as the world welcomes the death of the al qaeda number one generation of people and goodbye us foreign policy in the last decade means his agenda is still alive. the news from washington spread rapidly around the world many point to the perfect timing of the announcement day after a deadly attack on coming down his compound in libya. the view to be insulted me called me russian not a heartbeat and trust me. a russian citizen the claim she was beaten by georgian

police to send a warning sign to opposition to their relatives. and shop owners are hoping for and then pick sales record but frenzy is first of course they're not exactly the kind of the twenty fourteen winter games. and russia's equity markets open moderately positive after a long weekend and following osama bin laden's demise join me in twenty minutes time in our business promise and from. on air and online twenty four hours a day says r.t. well well the death of a son of another may have been praised around the world but that world is now bracing itself for a terror response meanwhile the news that the body of their leader was buried at sea is doing this sort of counterclaims instead of night. and reports the aim of

the operation they have been as much to do with winning elections as the war on terror. the great then dead a moment shrouded in secrecy as americans celebrate the killing of the nation's number one terrorist they had no other proof of his death but the word of their present. and they needed to give us a big win and we could. feel good but sure you can't see his body we threw him in the ocean and all we did show you a fake photo according to u.s. officials american special forces killed osama bin laden in his mentioning pakistan conducted a d.n.a. test to make sure it was him and promptly got rid of the body as they put it following islamic burial tradition while the symbol of america's war on terror seems to be done with the war on terror itself is not it is death does not mark the end of our effort there is no doubt that al qaeda will continue to pursue attacks against us we must and we will remain vigilant at home and abroad the u.s.

has been long chasing all kind of beyond of ghana's then borders in yemen those who have been covert drone strikes in pakistan they were over and widely criticized for the scores of civilians killed in the attacks the question some ask now is could the success of killing bin ladin in pakistan give the u.s. more of a carte blanche were carrying out strikes in other countries it will be used to justify further wars greater repression and more acts tortured judicial targeted assassinations against political opponents and this is true whether and libya and iraq and pakistan and afghanistan many analysts say mary kiss war on terror so far has been a double edged sword that involves fighting terror and provoking care at the same time the war waged by ally forces and led by the united states is left of ghana's

then as unstable as ever the war on terror has the ability to allow the u.s. to carry out military operations that since two thousand and one have taken the lives of more than a million civilians. in iraq in afghanistan now in libya and of course that leads to an escalation of resistance of hatred of revenge and so in terms of keeping the american people safe that's a ridiculous notion the us has a track record of policies that backfired like arming and training the afghan which i had been in the 1980's in their fight against the soviet troops subsequently the same with jackie the militants turned their weapons and training against the us among those supported by the us was also some of bin ladin it was group eventual evolved into al qaeda one great problem with the whole. thing as a great. number. one lesson was learnt

victory over evil makes great television and approval ratings for the man in charge . obama said that he had known about bin laden's whereabouts sees august last year but only last week had he given the order to take him it's been two weeks since obama and now it's his reelection plans he's been slipping in the polls over inconclusive wars overseas and economic woes at home it's actually led to the president of the united states being beatified almost more than the you know the pope's you know kind of accolades to john paul this is you know obama is cashing in on this to everything for everything that it's worth and you'll notice in his speech last night he kept stressing several times i ordered i promised i's such and such it was clearly done for you know this statement was

clearly worded for political advantage at a time of unity and joy over that there are these evil man americans have been missing the bigger picture in the last twenty years the war on terror and the way. campaign that's earned them more and it's. going to take our reporting from washington. but american investigative journalist jeremy scahill says bin laden may be not a liar but his agenda will soon live on there's a way in which some of bin laden did win because in fact someone had a twitter account in hell that they started and said i've taken your civil liberties with me you know the united states spent over a trillion dollars on these wars invaded a country that had nothing to do with nine eleven or bin laden and in fact was an enemy of saddam hussein and in doing so created or inspired a whole new generation of people to rise up against united states that probably wouldn't have been inclined to do so otherwise so in that sense i mean i don't know

that victory is the right word but in that sense also some of the agenda of trying to chisel away at the u.s. power in the world certainly was successful. revelation suggests pakistani special forces have been shielding the knowledge for many years political analyst i've read it says the fact he was found in an expensive mansion close to the pakistani capital is a learned raising a certain degree of suspicion there is some possibility that the pakistani government was saving him as the eighth in the hole because they knew that's what the united states not enough the united states to get him they may be less willing to provide billions of dollars of aid and other support to the pakistani government so i think the united states has. always been a victim of pakistan supporting the taliban under the table and perhaps even hiding . simply because they are manipulating the united states in that part of the region

. praties and it's a country with a cohesive kenny feels the many inconsistences about your aeration costs down there the weather is really dead. it is a great news if that's true but it looks like a very stage fairy tale and a night show the united states hasn't proved. evidence regarding the operation and how his body was transferred to a landlocked evgenia stand later to be dumped into sea reach doesn't make any sense for me second phony excuse that no none of the countries wanted to take his body that was not a reason he was supposed to be bringing for forensic evidence back to the united states because he he was the main target over ten years man it took a bomb it took years to prove his birth certificate i don't know how many years it

will take for ministration to prove. a death certificate but on our website we're asking you how international terrorism will change the news of bin laden's death so whether the majority even for these everything will carry on as usual as bin laden wasn't the main driving force under fifty down to his death to see any changes to. terrorism will become stronger because of his demise and the six percent. then read to the end for we can log on to call it how you will serve. us and made an attempt on the life of another man to consider its enemy on saturday night in tripoli the compound of colonel gadhafi was hit by this strike he escaped death but three of his grandchildren and his youngest son were reportedly killed

because alex and when the school reports the bury the news. it was the death of the good buried under the barrage of breaking news libyan leader moammar gadhafi has twenty nine year old son and three grandchildren were reportedly killed by nato airstrike on saturday night all children were said to be under twelve years old but within twenty four hours the us president announced the death of the world's number one terrorist news which always showed anything coming from libya the idea of extra judicial assassinations just days after attempted to assassinate him and ended up killing his son and grandchildren once again we see another type of extra judicial assassination going on which of course is an international war crimes but in this case it's a it's ok because it's the beginning and everyone loves to hate. the coalition commanders have protested they are in full compliance with the u.n. security council resolution on libya and only target military objects insisting

they're not targeting any one person and particular this despite two recent airstrikes targeting known whereabouts of khadafi this was an attack on a so you know your structure this was. a murder free was for it sure what it is so. well i think. anybody with any theory associated with you know what they really want to get and you know. you respect. this was all occurred but of course being a libya is a war all of the nato countries are committing war crimes every single day attacking civilian targets killing civilians. the bombings the sports riots with gadhafi supporters storming the italian and british embassies and protests and some believe should the coalition forces continue on their chosen course in libya the situation will go from bad to worse nato's activity is his only

strength and the loyalty. the resolve of supporters for each. on tripoli and. loyalists strongholds it's just the psychology of the war and where when you. are resisting group their resolve gets stronger and as history shows the situation in libya maplewood course already familiar to western politicians we have to give full credit to the u.s. political establishment in the military establishment have been always very creative in finding anything first it was a soviet union and was it was the russian federation in the name of some of the hussein and these days of course we have more on the. next one. whenever the need arises moscow has expressed concern over the stress that libya has times saying the coalition is using excessive force but promises from countries like

russia china and india have gone unnoticed by the west and will need to decide that it's ultimately paul who knows how many more lives will be lost they don't see moscow they can check out free video section on our website for season footage from tripoli cruise films are angry crowds of libyans stormed the western diplomatic missions following the news that the children were sort of gets a full access to water. the opposition in georgia is bracing itself for another battle against president really as a mass rallies are set for later this month. leaders are determined to bring

a tidal wave of investment promised booming business for everyone including those who like to cash in with no official right to do so last year we confiscated over two hundred forty items of merchandise which turned olympic symbols illegally employed this hotel's owner placed the olympic sign on his gates. to attract customers he's now facing a fine for copyright violation and sochi police say his just one of many sochi souvenir stands are full of sports goods most of them like these t. shirt great here say either sochi or city of the future or have logos resembling the olympic emblem but officially they are not good legs since none of these goods carry all the elements which would make them food well of copyright. but after these funny little creatures were picked in a nationwide televised vote it didn't take much to inspire the corporate leaders to produce their own versions and no custom sells us a full of unofficial bears hares and snow leopard bed just but not all vendors seem

a bill swings an equity commodity in currency markets with some analysts expecting for the impact however the recipient of nobel prize in economics robert mundell says bin laden's demise will have no substantial effect on the u.s. economy. but i don't think there's going to be any transfer in that and i think those are quite separate things that have everyone is relieved that this episode courageous care pursued in your life is over and the. course remains our creator which is again you're saying to me in sharing your danger but at least to to cd and of bin laden is the beginning of the and i don't know if it's because of that but maybe people feel that it will go up because they read through the hit by the expectation of it to produce. the elimination really me go to clear things away for the united states to improve. look at the current market

reaction was seeing right now in commodities we're seeing oil prices dropping as a terrorist the minds leads to swings in the modern seas as traces wagered on the how it will affect the major oil producing regions of the middle east and north africa that's moved to come out its new stock markets now from commodities and in asia we're seeing a moderately positive trade on the hang seng the nikkei has closed for constitution moral they were you seeing there is a positive monday reaction. here in russia both the r.t.s. and the my six are trading mixed right now it's kind of swinging from up to down all the time i six is down by just the not shot so yes i'll tell you pretty much the same amount to take a closer some of the individual share movements energy majors are mixed on a lower oil price for example was never the point one percent while loop oil was actually up point eight percent thank you stocks also positive beats and be upon

four percent growth telecoms also one of the top papers up point six percent. and russia is not it's trading between two public holidays are getting out the capital building it's trading will be marginally like this week. we're going to see some significant activity in russian market because of long holidays and we expect trading volumes to be really low. and of course no three no matter whether we see any positive news flow either from the u.s. or from europe or from russia itself we're not going to see real a strong market force probably will go on consolidation at current levels probably will make a move make an attempt to go a bit higher however this is going to be a rally but still again developments from a positive trend the overall sentiment in global markets also remain positive we have already seen last week some positive signals on the federal reserve policy on

the economy on earnings so i think that we're going to consolidate now probably some local players will make their positions and i believe we're going to go higher so at least we will we have to outperform in comparison to. be developed markets and also given the fact that we've been lagging during the last month russia's largest private will company lukoil says the current oil price is not justified the company plans to list on kong with a head of lukoil that you can it kind of says it will only happen when the market stabilizes. but i didn't witness the markets rather volatile saw the current all prices we believe that about twenty percent of the oil price is speculative capital the current price of about one hundred ten dollars a barrel is perhaps a price to reflect the current cost stand the current situation on the market so we would like to wait until the situation becomes stable and the dynamic development

of the industry begins. to stop lenders burbank may not miss the seven point six percent stake all that one says was the state privatization program and it's believed they would best the demand will oblige the company to office smaller tranche of shares to avoid differentiating the price of the final decision is yet to be made the head of the bag had been graph says the company is doing it. to widen the number of possible investors. some not so good to put it says mr the purser shares will depend on the market situation we are market beast company more than half of our capital is being traded in america can sway deciding the price will not be a problem for this in two months time when we get all the necessary approvals and to start listing a.d.r.'s and london this will significantly widen the range of our potential investors which are. all right business r.t. we'll be back next with an update the headlines are next.
