up the chapmans cover throwing it to the wolves along with ten other russian agents in the us during those two years transatlantic spice are. you watching r t one welcome to it's a leaven pm choose day night here in moscow my name is kevin zero in on the top story tonight less than two days after some of them love them a shot dead pakistan's now caught in the crosshairs of international scrutiny observers have been baffled over how the world's most wanted terrorist managed to hide just a kilometer away from the main military academy in the country however it's not the only uncertainty surrounding bin laden's death which marks a major milestone in the global war on terror the saying in the tail here is the increased risk of revenge attacks coming from al qaeda supporters and results he's gonna hit you can report york ration one of them barack obama's presidential
3:02 pm
ambitions any harm even. in mind that the great then that a moment shrouded in secrecy as americans celebrated the killing of the nation's number one terrorist they had no other proof of his death but the word of their president they needed to give us a big win and we could want to call it feel good but sorry can't see his body we threw him in the ocean and oh 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.
3:03 pm
has been long chasing all cried it beyond its gun is then borders in yemen those of being covert drone strikes in pakistan they were overt and widely criticized for the scores of civilians killed in the attacks but question some ask now is cook a success of killing bin ladin in pakistan giving us more of a carte blanche we're carrying out strikes in other countries it will be used to justify further wars greater repression and will are acts triggered judicial targeted assassinations against. us and this is true whether and libya and iraq and pakistan and afghanistan many analysts say merry kissed war on terror so far has been a double edged sword that involves fighting terror and provoking terror at the same time the war waged by ally forces and led by the united states has left afghanistan
3:04 pm
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 mujahideen in the 1980's in their fight against the soviet troops subsequently the same with jackie the militants turned their rapin in training against the us among those supported by the us was osama bin ladin whose group eventual evolved into al qaida one. episode and. we're still seeing great success with. the one lesson
3:05 pm
was learnt victory over evil makes great television and approval ratings for the men 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 seize 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 everything for everything that it's worth and you'll notice that his speech last night he kept stressing several times i ordered i promised eyes such and such it was clearly done for you know this statement was
3:06 pm
clearly word for political advantage and it was unity and joy over there are these evil man americans would be missing the bigger picture in the last twenty years the war on terror and the way. it has burned more enemies than friends and belichick now reporting philosophy art. but the beloved is dead subsiding there are questions over what his fate might mean for the world he spoke to patrick hayes reporter for spiked online magazine and says they've been blown out of all proportion i think in many ways the interesting thing about osama bin laden is he is actually more creation of the west than he is in a real political or kind of terrorist threats in himself in many ways he kind of feeds a vampire like off the insecurities of the west i think in many ways as the most significant aspect of what we've seen over the last couple of days which is this massively disproportionate reaction to the killing of bin laden as if it's like
3:07 pm
some historic turning point for humanity you know you see world leaders coming else barack obama of course but it will also like. and silvio berlusconi all saying this is greats political historical events i think there's a really telling disconnect between actually the reality of the situation which is exactly you have this aging sickly old man who really hasn't done anything of real political significance for a long time and the great kind of triumph against evil that the western leaders are really kind of starting to trumpet at the moment. police are reportedly detained three russian citizens suspected of terrorist activities according to russia's foreign ministry the man who allegedly from russia's volatile north caucasus region . was for. police in the czech republic have arrested several men suspected of terrorism and there are three russian citizens among those eight arrested now chad police sources are saying that they were forging documents and smuggling weapons as
3:08 pm
well as explosives as they were planning a terror attack now these people are also believed to have links with an islamic extremist group that is currently operating and a volatile republic of dagestan here in russia's north caucasus and according to the spokesman for the russian embassy in the czech republic three of the eight arrested are from chechnya and dagestan at the moment there are being questioned and further investigation process is underway meanwhile russia's north caucasus really remains the main training ground for terrorists in the country and though this area has witnessed a number of antiterrorism in the last several weeks and dozens of militants with links to al qaida have been wiped out including a chief al qaida agent in the region close associates to russia's most wanted terrorist and the leader of militant. still in this area is really the most volatile district in the country as these mountains to provide

3:10 pm
it's the bogeyman that 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 in particular this despite two recent years strikes targeting known whereabouts of qaddafi this was an attack on a million structure this was iraqi or stock car they murdered three was grandchildren what is science well i think it very well why did. anybody with any fear associated with you know they really want to get you know and you know. you really think you're this was all a crime but of course being a libya a lot is almost all of the nato countries ok meeting walker and every single day attacking civilian targets he leaves that millions. the
3:11 pm
bombings the sports riots with gadhafi supporters the storming the italian and british embassies in protest 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 and it's really strange the loyal. the resolve of gadhafi supporters for each dropped on tripoli. loyalist strongholds it's just the psychology of war anywhere when you. are resisting the group their resolve gets stronger and as history shows the situation in libya many full force already familiar to western politicians we have to give full credit to the u.s. political establishment of the military establishment always very creative in finding anybody first it was a start you know it was the russian federation and even some of them live in saddam
