further after tuesday's thought the biggest drop in more than two weeks is global commodities continue to decline from the latest from the business desk in twenty minutes. news around the clock from around the world good to have you with us here on r t i'm mad and so i've been am in moscow with the u.s. having killed the man who was the reason for going to war with afghanistan nearly a decade ago many are questioning what's next for the military operation there tremendous cost of a campaign both in human lives and money suggest the temptation is big for washington to declare mission accomplished and pull out but as artie's marine important i reports bin laden's death is unlikely to improve life in the war torn country. nine and a half years on the war in afghanistan has grown visibly worse while u.s. rhetoric surrounding it has consistently spun in circles we are making progress
3:02 am
that is what it was unable to make the progress that we have made i think it's possible that by the end of this year he'll. since two thousand and three washington has repeatedly per cleaned turning points for a conflict that critics call a failing. reality is that things are still mean that things are worse than they were this time last year every year we send more troops every year as we spend more money on. the insurgency grows in size karzai government gets weaker in the violence gets worse nearly fifteen hundred u.s. soldiers and ten thousand afghan civilians have been killed in a war costing america two billion dollars per week meanwhile after assassinating the man it's been hunting since two thousand and one the united states has conducted an operation that killed osama bin laden i disconnect between what the us

says and what the world sees may have deepened a defining moment in the war against al qaeda the war on terrorism decapitated the head of the snake effectively you have aging. really hasn't done anything of real political significance for a long time and the great kind of triumph against evil was that the western leaders are really kind of starting to trumpet at the moment. bush before him turned into this kind of symbol of evil following the nine eleven attacks is actually more a creation of the west than he is a real political kind of terrorist threats in himself u.s. officials branded bin laden's killing as a success and strategic blow to al qaeda it is going to have i think very important reverberations throughout. on the other kind of network in that area i think you're going to see them start eating themselves from within more and more this as some
3:04 am
see the u.s. turning and spinning fiction into fact in afghanistan itself it's not going to have that much of a role we're fighting taliban or for the afghan taliban in afghanistan we're not fighting al qaeda you have a new generation of young radicals who have grown up watching these wars over the past ten years that are far more radical than their predecessors osama bin laden claimed responsibility for the nine eleven attacks that killed nearly three thousand people and devastated new york city nearly ten years later his death is being reported as a victory for the u.s. while the work that america waged to get him still struggles to find a conclusion greenup or not hearty new york. the nation magazine's publisher and editor katrina vanden u.-haul believes the ten year long war on terror by the u.s. hasn't made the world unsafe we see the cost of a land war the even secretary of defense robert gates said it was quite
3:05 am
a few weeks ago any advisor would visor presidents admit to to lend or should have his head examined i think it is a moment to reappraise the national security template in this country which is not made this country safer or more secure now the pretext for war in afghanistan has been radically vanished len morris is landlords fighting terrorism again little costs the cost if you connect that to people's lives and they see that it's not really in a more security a global war won't make as much sense and it will require let's be honest the bends on the ground to show these policymakers the time is up but a step a sort of artie's cross talk host peter all about oil and gas discuss how the world will change after bin laden's death and what will happen if the u.s. pulls out from afghanistan. what is the vacuum that you're going to leave behind and are you going to wind up having afghanistan become again
3:06 am
a haven for groups that will attack the u.s. or western interests so i think he might do that and hope and pray that the next major attack doesn't come from afghanistan and doesn't come on his watch but you know i think have a way of repeating themselves you know the water flows the same way down to the ocean if you don't change its course soon and unfortunately i think that's what would happen. and. so variety of perspectives on the story and you can find lots of them on our website our team. future there today is an interview with political xor expert maxime shevchenko he believes osama bin laden became a mythical figure in u.s. politics and finds a certain significance in the fact he buried at sea and our blog section american blogger named not found the says been logons death may be significant but outdated

because a new generation of english speaking internet savvy jihad is already out there already dot com and check it out for yourself. the official. pulled talk from the. video. of mine. since thieves with the palm of your. comb as fresh nato airstrikes have been heard in the libyan capital over an eight there is still little sign of any progress for either side of the conflict that's intensifying talk among made nato members about a possible land operation the lion says spokesman admits there's a need for a new u.n. resolution to send in troops but as artie's daniel bushell reports the move threatens to massively escalate the violence it's already there. aerial

bombardments of libya's reach to date in according to nato libya's leader colonel gadhafi has dug in defensive positions meanwhile civilian casualties from allied bombing continue to mount it's a video conference with russian students nato spokesman review this solution sending ground troops. the u.n. security council should adopt a new resolution will be a result of one thousand seven hundred three there's not invisible line operations we need a new resolution western forces plonked that all along says a leading us law professor clearly what we're seeing are unfold here in libya is a pre existing war plan by nato by the british by the french by the americans who care look at everything now is going according to plan which is why i believe that since they have failed to our polls could daffy which is steps are
3:09 am
solved far the next stage will be moving into a ground invasion and nato powers have to push the international community into supporting the war and those one or the protecting civilians was the claim but grabbing the country's resources is the real goal this is one of the most the. reason for as aggressions of the rights of nation national sovereignty and international law that we've seen in the post-war period could be west the u.s. and france and britain have been called virtually according to the evidence that's leaking out covertly arming the opposition to gadhafi in hopes of grabbing control of the oil and the different parts of libya the libyan government promise is still for nato if it sends in ground troops some agree such a war may be tougher than expected we will see increased. not only in the air but also on the ground and maybe this will solve
3:10 am
a problem if the nato countries or maybe. we were the one who. bombing from thirty thousand feet coalition soldiers feel fairly safe attend she wore activists warn putting troops on the ground risks not just more civilian killing but deaths as well and the further away they get from high tech and they and the nearer they get to low tech then the greater the danger of casualties on both sides turkey china and russia who will criticize the bombardment of libya for minister sergey lavrov thinks nato has already gone far beyond the first u.n. resolution to maintain a no fly zone he hits a second resolution to move in ground troops may not come as easy now several nations feel tricked if anybody wants to ask for his mandate welcome to the un security council we will discuss trying to understand what is planned because that aggressions from the money that we are seeing now are enough to learn lessons with
3:11 am
international opposition on the rois nato states face an uphill task to make the case for more war britain's prime minister will belt sending ground troops to libya his defense secretary of the parliament they plan exactly that but you have members good at the number of civilian deaths from nato bombing a drawing likely to welcome escalation of the conflict that you want your party london. in the next hour you can catch an interview with a british member of parliament one of the ones who voted against taking action in libya he sees the air offensive as quickly heading toward a ground offensive here's a preview. of the if you like the vagueness of the resolution kicks in because it does talk about false and flies and protecting civilians and using necessary measures to implement policy could theoretically be the story was impeached. and control some to tripoli is debatable and i think we have to be very
3:12 am
careful before troops because. you've got to make sure you've got point around you've got to make sure that it is the measure of last resort. and i'm not sure we make those criteria when it came to libya as well so i think lessons to be learned. rosco wants the u.s. to guarantee its new missile interceptor base in eastern europe won't pose a threat to russia he says romania announcers plans to host part of america's missile defense defense shield or he sorry for a joins us live from moscow outside the foreign ministry for more so sorry the issue of missile defense again causing a rupture ruckus between moscow and washington tell us more about this stop. calling. from washington that is. still.
