moscow i matricide good to have you with us here on r t our top story president barack obama has backtracked on an earlier promise by the cia to deliver proof of bin laden's death despite differences of opinion at the top in the u.s. the president said images of the leader's body will not be released to the public he said they couldn't cite further violence and be used as a propaganda tool but authorities marina porton i reports the operation has been riddled with contradictions. the week began with an international news bombshell proudly dropped by the united states there was a female who was in fact in the line of fire that reportedly was used as a shield to shield the loddon from the incoming fire by tuesday a big blunder a major backpedaling in the room with bin laden a woman in london's water a woman rather bin laden's wife rushed the u.s.

assaulter and was shot in the leg but not killed america grabbed the world's attention after announcing the assassination of osama bin laden yet failing to get the facts straight the u.s. has also facilitated a rapid rise of conspiracy theories what they did is they told a bunch of different stories they took some stuff is back and they've just found out the conspiracy machine they were all on a fire a blaze that inflamed after failing to deliver on promises of providing the public with proof we're going to do everything we can to make sure that nobody has any basis to try to deny that we got some good line i don't think there was any question but ultimately a photograph or would be presented to the public we have no need to publish those photographs to establish what was on a bin laden was killed u.s. president barack obama refused to release any visual evidence confirming bin

laden's gaffe for fear it would be used to spark anti-american violence critics say this leaves the public with more questions than answers and when they say we don't want to show the photos because we don't want to inflame people well fine how about bringing in certain members of the press along with a panel of unrelated forensic identification experts who can come out and say we've studied this the world was able to study the execution of america's other enemy in two thousand and six when the hanging of saddam hussein went viral on the web. shortly afterwards meanwhile in lodgings expedited sea burial has been the target of conspiracy and act u.s. officials say was done in keeping with muslim tradition returning to. here is the requirement in islamic law of the individual within twenty four hours as many have noted washington broke its own rule when the bodies of saddam hussein's sons were embalmed and held for eleven days after being killed by u.s.

forces but there are so many inconsistency is in all of this that it's incumbent upon the obama administration to be as forthcoming as they can be about exactly what they do and do not know and did and did not know where in this case you know what to say before you speak and not just one week ago it was brock obama at the center of a two year conspiracy that die down once america's leader released his birth certificate but now obama's actions surrounding the killing of osama bin ladin have paved the way for a whole new set of missing questions surrounding the transparency of the u.s. government very important i.r.t. new york. the u.s. and pakistan have been at odds over the operation that wiped out bin laden washington's exasperated that is a lot of bad seemingly had no idea he'd been there for so long but a status question on the legality of a secret seal mission on sovereign soil. explores whether life for people in the

region is going to change now that washington has taken out the man who was its top terror target. osama's death couldn't have come at a better time u.s. and pakistani relations are going through their worst period since nine eleven reasons behind it predator drones and private contractors when a cia agent shows two pakistanis that in broad daylight earlier this year officials in islamabad said it was the final straw and demanded all american operatives leave the country immediately we have to be doubly sure rather be a presence or be in. a guest and then proper. dasha why not western pakistan just one week before and had as leader was killed an anti us german demonstration united hundreds of protesters fear is that another twenty five people were killed in a strike taken the total number of civilian deaths into the hundreds i.

signs of a peace offering and generic and sentiment has continued rising u.s. plans to extend its military presence in pakistan and ensure its dominance in the region after its troops withdrew from a guy stand seem to have collapsed as he comes the chant card but the united states has conducted an operation that killed osama bin laden and us about bin laden's demise just like u.s. drones came out of the blue delivering a direct hit on u.s. critics. it's me sam erika's victory will hardly change the life of ordinary people here in a country that's been in the maids to fact and by the global war on terror since britain in pakistan was among the first to be cleaned all the time and things like exactly the same damage to beijing. everything that these cities all that he needed population to the least place really quite tranquil as you can see people out there

2:09 am
when you saw his chance of usa around ground zero i think very few people seem to understand that bin laden was a creation of america assassinations as we've known and usually don't make the world a safer place i think that we do have to be on guard but we mustn't allow the united states we just are all created this al qaeda operation through its foreign policies to make it even less safer place because of what happened is as iran said you know this this alien forces in iraq in afghanistan all around the world that is what makes the world less stable and let's hope washington it's a full on probably realize that a more isolationist policy would be better for all of us and your way soon to russia and europe join cosmic forces soyuz rocket warms up dry running the french guiana test and ambitious project. as ordered all gears up for a billion dollar bailout we explore how the country could be next to fall to your

ocracy. a ship evacuating people from the besieged libyan city of misrata has come under rocket attack from khadafi forces with reports of several deaths this comes as the hague court announced it's investigating possible crimes against humanity with the libyan opposition asking for more financial support there is growing speculation about the real motives of the coalition's humanitarian intervention as our correspondents report. the u.s. welcomed the international criminal court prosecutors plans to request three hour arrest warrants for alleged crimes against humanity committed in leap years instead of grief fifteen prosecutors did not specify who these people are but it's known that the international criminal court has been investigating colonel gadhafi some of his sons and aides over what the prosecutor called predetermined plan to attack protesters he said now is the time to start planning on how to implement those possible arrest warrants and that's the interesting part carrying out those arrests
2:11 am
will require foreign forces on the ground to actually do that the issue of enforcing any future court warrants is expected to be discussed at the meeting of the coalition countries in rome on thursday from what we know now coalition forces are really edging towards sending in ground troops the problem is the u.n. resolution that allowed the military into gear in order to protect civilians does not allow foreign troops on the ground and the nato spokesperson has recently made it clear that they want a mandate to send troops they say there is still little sign of progress for either side in the conflict but the aerial bombardment of libya has reached a dead end indeed order to break the stalemate the need to do that but getting a mandate like that from the u.n. security council will be very difficult considering all the criticism that the nato operations in libya face now for example russia a permanent member of the security council has heavily criticised nato for going far beyond the u.n. resolution and many are equally alarmed by the growing number of civilian
2:12 am
casualties seemingly many analysts believe that any ground operation any ground involvement will lead to an escalation of the conflict to more violence on the ground but with these recent developments coalition forces could be looking for ways to go around the u.n. resolution that has not allowed the involvement of foreign troops on the ground and some say maybe those international criminal court warrants will provide a better look. hart now for more on the possible motives behind the coalition actions here is my colleague laura amyt in london who looks into one motive that's rarely brought up much this. is just. according to some it's about protecting civilians that are resolved it's clear the people of libya must be protected. of those say it's about oil the only reason there is a sort of with libya is about the oil but i think we'd be in iraq if the major acts

were there was broccoli but some are convinced intervention in libya is all about courage thief specifically gadhafi planned to introduce the goldstein are a single african currency made from goals a true sharing of the wealth is one of these things that you have to plan almost in secret because as soon as you say you're going to change over from the dollar to something else we're all going to be targeted go to conferences on this one in ninety six and another one in the year two thousand called the world methodical in france organized and everybody was interested but i think most countries in africa are playing gadhafi didn't give up in the months leading up to the military intervention he called on african and muslim nations to join together to create this new currency that would rival the dollar and euro they would sell oil and other resources around the world only for gold details it's an idea that would
2:14 am
shift the economic balance of the world's countries wealth which depends on how much gold they have not how many dollars they trade and libya has one hundred forty four tons of gold the u.k. has double that but ten times the population if gadhafi had an intent to try to reprice his oil or whatever else the country was selling in the global markets and accept something else as a currency or maybe launch of gold in our currency any move such as that would certainly not be welcomed by the power elite today who are responsible for controlling the world's central banks so yes that would certainly be something that would cause his immediate dismissal and the need for other reasons to be brought forth for removing him from power it's happened before in two thousand saddam hussein announced of rocky oil would be traded in euros not dollars. sanctions and an invasion float some say because the americans were desperate to prevent opec from transferring oil trading in all its member countries to the euro the build

would have had serious consequences for the world's financial system but may also help empower the people of africa something black activists say the u.s. wants to avoid at all costs the united states should welcome the self-determination of africans they certainly have to try self-determination to africans inside the united states so we're not surprised by any united states would do to hinder self-determination of africans on the continent that you paid goals you can here in a secure boat somewhere in the depths of the back of the big lead as in most developed countries there's not enough to go around but that's not the case in places like libya and many of the gulf states i told the da would have given the oil rich african on middle eastern countries the power to turn it around so that energy hungry customers in phase three the price has gone up and we won gold some

say the u.s. and its nato allies literally couldn't afford to let that happen nor and it's our duty not to. speed in reporting the coalition's intervention in libya has raised questions about the motives behind it musician and blogger mo seeger says wars are the business needed to keep nato one allies afloat. if you. travel examine a period of time when the u.s. and other western allies of the war we could not fire in thirty days in the last thirty years. where there hasn't been a period of military that's complete lines thirty years because that's business in libya they talk about democracy but the bottom line is we have to manage these resources and these abusiveness economy. and the way popular movements seem to challenge their agenda for management then they come in and talk about humanitarian

2:18 am
years have decades worth of successful exploitation history but there are a lot of things new about this or to kill launch first of all it's being done in french guyana so the climate and the weather conditions are much different from those in kazakhstan where the baikonur cosmodrome are situated so we you saw just now was a small bell tower which the constructors and the engineers had to develop in order to protect the system of the rocket from weather conditions and second we this time the payload is different unique in the sense that it had to be loaded only in a vertical position whilst usually how it was done in work on orders that the entire system was put together horizontal you don't it's rolled out to the launch pad and set up only there here you can see these are the two satellites for a europe and galley or your own. system and so this rocket will deliver
2:19 am
them to speed the launch is scheduled for the end of the summer so that should give enough time to work everything out to do all the tests because this is quite an important joint project it's good for both sides because first of all europe gets to use one of the most reliable space craft in the world and russia gets the usual launch pad so close to the equator which basically increases the below all of the species crafts so very important for both sides and since you want your schedule for the end of the summer should give enough time to work everything out. what if i have more news you can always click over to r t dot com along with expert blogs opinions and collapse here is what's on the line for you right now. as michaela saakashvili advertises his country is open to all families of georgia's opposition say the government is trying to scare them into submission ahead of a rally set for later in the month. and

when it has solved its stepped problems a country that is in deep debt and makes more dip every year cannot solve its problems by increasing its depth of knowledge because in future the. crowds will tell portugal what they have to do and what politics they have to to run to fulfill all the depth of regularity regularities and therefore it depends on the aims from the spirit products what will be done in portugal and not what the people want in portugal and therefore this is one step further to the super state where the bureaucrats are. the more powerful than the countries we do not know whether the enter euro will survive these programs. turning now to some other stories making headlines across the globe
