along. and a victory over terror on russian soil and chief al qaeda coordinator in the north caucuses has been eliminated with officials hopeful the news will devastate the region's terrorist network. and next in our special interview with discussing the possibility of an all out war in libya a british member of parliament one of the few who voted against taking action to stop us. today i'm talking to john an m.p. who is one of only thirteen members of parliament. the military intervention in libya compared to five hundred fifty seven who voted for john barrack thanks for talking to our see now why very sick game our own number of concerns a number of questions that remain unanswered one we will yet seem to be making in the affairs of another was an important a rich muslim country and
10:32 am
a record of intervention has not been good recent years secondly where are the arabs themselves or put in the no fly zone in particular given what we've been selling the capability for decades thirdly why does with the such a policy lead why aren't we doing something similar in say the yemen or bahrain and finally what is the exit strategy we simply don't know do you feel that you achieved something by the gates the intervention or was it a pointless move it away oh no it's never pointless you know as you see fit that's why i'm here at the end of the day we're here to listen when we are here to listen to the views of government and others but you have to vote as you see fit now if you are a member of a party that is looking currently a rollercoaster gungho is blair's did at the height of its power essentially how do you feel about that route well we would argue in the conservative party that. they acted within the un mandate a un resolution which is a little different to what for example previous government when they went into iraq
10:33 am
. so there is a little mistake there but that doesn't necessarily make it the right decision and i felt it was not the right decision has been previously discussed and what do you make of the un security council resolution is it floored well i think we must always remember with these resolutions that not everybody is happy to sign up to them for example brazil russia india china germany all of stirring this resolution did not have you know. personal lacking and if it wasn't for the british and french in particular. i don't think there would have been one as strongly worded as it was but this resolution has then become friends have to say beyond all recognition really hasn't said i think there are real questions being raised i mean the reason for going in was concerned about the civilians a plane it was a humanitarian ticket if you like and that was a valid concern whether it was a valid justification for intervention is another reason but what seems becoming apparent is that we now have the no fly zone in effect becoming the air force of
10:34 am
the rebel fighters. and theoretically this air force can provide cover all the way to tripoli and i question whether that was within the spirit of the resolution as it was originally defined and how do you feel about what hague engine pay have come to this resolution well you know at the end of the day i think it was for me anyway the reason the obvious that this was more than just about humanitarian aid i think there was an element of regime change about this and so it has not come as a surprise to me what we have seen happen since the resolution was passed so he's coming out of this war as do you think the government in this country or the u.n. security council as a whole i think you'd have to analyze probably you know i think they're all party to and ill defined thought through mission which has no clear exit strategy and meanwhile civilian casualties mount. you know there is
10:35 am
a contradiction of us policy one we all value human life but at the end of the day if we are being consistent and what we should be doing is talking about a no fly zone for yemen for bahrain you can volunteer for the ivory coast. there is an inconsistency in this policy and i certainly think for example that the arabs themselves let's take egypt for example perfectly placed in. for a no fly zone it was in a very good position to put one in and perhaps they should have guns or a piece rack put forward by the african union was rejected by the rebels because it didn't include making death and his family leave libya how much support do you think there is for ousting its athlete outside benghazi washington and london i think it's very mixed i think you can see that by the fact that there are very few ground attack craft fighters being committed by the other u.n. nation and our lives and i think that's very telling. i think and there's no
10:36 am
shortage of countries willing to put in fighter aircraft which would be all that would need to instigate a no fly zone but when it comes to ground attack aircraft i think very few nations have put that forward i think that tells its own story as you said earlier this is another military intervention in another muslim country with natural resources have we learned nothing from our past mistakes well you know as you know i voted against the iraq war i voted against afghanistan when we had the opportunity of it and i think we have got to be very careful before you commit troops to buckle. you've got to make sure you've got the moral high ground you've got to make sure that it is the measure of last resort where all other avenues of negotiations have been exhausted and i'm not sure we met those criteria when it came to libya as well so i think the lesson still need to be learned and i'm afraid we're repeating prosperity and you see any progress in terms of learning lessons from the past well i see some
10:37 am
progress you will have seen the prime minister has talked to the kuwaiti parliament and this year you will have seen that the foreign secretary has agreed to review britain's arm sales policy after heavy questioning in the foreign affairs select committee these are small positives and i do believe to a certain extent british foreign policy may be at a crossroads in which it's either got to become more ethical or more honest i mean let's talk about that i mean you say that the prime. this week's speech to quitting parliament in february but that was a part of the trip which was essentially to hawk arms around the middle east when the trouble had already started with that serious error in judgment i mean is that is he the right man to lead the country when it comes to the issue of the armed services i think it does though did rather illustrate that you know there is a bit of a contradiction in british foreign policy at the moment and i think that is being recognized by the government which is why we've had this announcement recently that
10:38 am
there is going to be review of arms sales selling arms to a country for purposes of national defense i think are legitimate selling almost control weapons or crowd control but concessions say to autocrats and at the same time preach and ocracy to many will smack of a prophecy so you can only preach about democracy in my view from the moment you're not just a member of parliament you're also a former soldier what are people saying both of records in westminster do you think the troops will be deployed on the ground was that in fact a plan all along or no i do think it was the plan all along to i think most people would say no that would be a step too far we had assurances right from the beginning of the ground troops committed and as far as we're concerned many of us would hold government to account if it changed its mind but we also had assurances that they wouldn't directly target athletes in the beginning that wasn't part of the un security council i think it well it was all the way because this is where the if you like the very
10:39 am
midst of the resolution kicks in because it does talk about enforcing a no fly zone and protecting civilians and using all necessary measures to implement the policy you could theoretically if you all necessary measures includes attacking the quality and control center in tripoli part is debatable but i still am of the view that this was about regime change as much as about humanitarian aid but if you could argue that why couldn't you argue that. ground troops is part of all necessary measures and it seemed such a powerful and and all encompassing for a while because i think the majority of people in this place who voted for the intervention and i respect that view did so warmly assumption that this was about humanitarian aid than nothing more than that it had the legitimacy of the un resolution to ground troops and i think that would clearly go beyond that resolution. as i say you fought in northern ireland what's difficulties do you
10:40 am
think that troops would face going into the middle of a civil war i don't think we have to discuss that scenario that hypothetical scenario because i really don't see it happening i think there would be up in this country if we committed ground troops the u.k. was instrumental in a good athlete rehabilitation do you think that cameron hague zeal for war in libya is an attempt to make up for the fact that the u.k. was complicit with a dictator but this is a question you have to ask i can only view the situation as i see it and vote accordingly i mean for all the reasons we've discussed i think this was the broader war intervention i suggest you put that question to the prime minister and the foreign secretary and finally is this a war for oil i don't know i think it's more a little bit about i think humanitarian aid is definitely strong reason but i think it's also about regime change you know it could happen was becoming unpredictable you have the same scenario in other countries in the middle east with the game in the rain you could argue syria why aren't we talking about you know intervention or
10:41 am
a no fly zone was there i think it's largely because you know there was to some extent becoming unpredictable that was not necessarily a matter of the west despite. approaches and claims to the contrary in the period leading up to the intervention and there was no not in this area to the rest maybe well maybe i mean i don't think we'll ever know that the answer to that question i mean i'm sure the negotiations are various levels. about this matter but all we can do as parliamentarians is take a step back acknowledge that there's probably a lot of we're not aware of but judge the situation on the facts that we have in front of us and all those facts whether it's the fact that we don't have an exit strategy whether we're not sure where this policy would lead whether it's the fact that you know once again we're intervening and why couldn't the arabs have done this and they have the capability to do so those are all factors that help me to come to the decision that this was the wrong direction jump around like you very much.

to last week's first leg in that red scored after a are pulled apart and sent off but a second might come but it looks on the cards when godfather again looked to open for a out only in the second half only think it's called been ruled out of the team right now that you know lies for a foul then after fifty thought and it's possible to score three hundred two would secure a place in the final possibly equalize within ten minutes to make it one one on the night that was only a consolation andre all couldn't hide their sense of injustice all the words however because when it has guardiola praised his players. and we got permission to go firstly i want to congratulate all supporters who came to the stadium tonight this is me one of the greatest going side of the sea they were so supportive despite heavy rain also i want to congratulate real madrid for the courage of coming here and playing face to face and you can regulate my team to the draw instead of playing defensive they kept playing football even in very difficult
10:48 am
situation you push it blows and one of the ball. yesterday in the same chair i had said that the referees just for this game was already done because after what we had seen a very bare stadium this was already sorted but once again the mr was right when he said right after the first like it was an impulse was asked to make it to the final and as we all sorts of day it was truly impossible to make each other more to your shop we were well my stay nice of the favorites to meet also in the final at london's wembley stadium on may twenty eighth the red devils host german side shell for a whole track of this wednesday night to a tune of advantage from the first leg of their semifinal however they may be forced to rest star striker wayne rooney has a time time strength and they have the other first in the regulars ahead of proper time for premier league title decider against chelsea at the weekend. well if you're experience of why sheila was to reach for where the game is by i became a very tired against chelsea ness makes a game. of

a building material to asian. games with important as important as other. there will be some changes. and you can see few minutes is good enough to still win the much. well as for shelter the winter sleep aside still believe they can reach a european final for the first time i have a taste of all the traffic that's during a training session on tuesday where united are unbeaten this season started you have thought a part in the former spanish better fit again last month and at the back they have a more than capable man on wire that gives coach rough language hope asked us the fact they beat into milan five two at the san siro in the previous rounds. was not anything to make you want the people he mean will mean doesn't really matter i'm sure the batting situation is similar there is no difference really to the

situation before the into tahrir but i want to sure we can go back to base time and we have learned our lessons from the last two weeks and then we'll see what happens in football you have always got a jones so we'll see what happens tomorrow night. and i mean while david battered may be england's most capped outfield player but the midfielder would like another feather in his cap as the former manchester united and relative star is aiming to be a part of the great britain squad and next summer's london olympics seen here with some expenses turned thirty six on monday and will be a year old up when the games return to his native city first third time but age isn't worrying the veteran l.a. galaxy midfielder who still wants to play for his country i thought was instrumental in bringing the thirtieth olympiad to the english capital says attention position of any kind but also what his appetite great britain to be entering the olympic football tournament for the first time in forty years however only english players will be flying the flag for team g.b.
