largest either away from station and finds out how locals are trying to work here or decades of damage to the reverse at fishing industry of all good record. this is r.t. coming to you live from moscow our marina joshie welcome to the program the libyan rebels have failed to gain official recognition from the us government at software avel official was even denied a meeting with iraq obama in washington on friday but imo djibril is a first senior member of libya's national transitional council to visit the u.s. after meeting our american officials djibril said the rebels are having trouble getting washington to release her over the obvious frozen assets that ministration had earlier promised to hand over some of the multi-billion dollar for. there will

be an opposition journalist patrick a rebel allegiance for the west is only alienating little. robert gates said but he's cautious about understanding who makes up the opposition and through an extensive caution is commendable because this humanitarian intervention by the west in libya wasn't a planned strategy was a war without any real i mean it was something to do with cynthy without any real clear sense of who they're doing it on behalf of the rebels are and what they want to achieve from its transitional national council of libya now completely orientated towards the west to move nato to with america they want to try and get exceptions from obama from western leaders they're not looking towards the libyan people it means that information doesn't come from the libyan people it comes from this kind of political elites in libya who basically just tried to tell the west what it wants to hear recognition has come from the libyan people it can't come

from the west it's not just about getting rid of gadhafi it's about bringing about a democratic libya which is very much a process that has to be struggled for by the people of libya you can't bomb libya into democracy the solution doesn't come from the west removing gadhafi and i think it would be absolutely dreadful if this event up killing gadhafi because gadhafi should be removed by libyan hands not by the way. in libya more a nato air strikes ever poorly struck the capital tripoli following years of fine broadcast from girl to the meeting in washington grackle dominated or had anders fogh rasmussen agreed to continue bombing as long as a levy a leader puts up a fight but as our lauren lyster reports the motivation of the u.s. led alliance is under scrutiny. several decades and wars later it's still the question that is top of mind when it comes to the world's largest military alliance many people i think today wonder

after the end of the cold war why nato lo and behold reality is that nato is busier than ever. set up to counter perceived threats from the soviet union the north atlantic treaty organization has plowed ahead without an enemy after the end of the cold war. some facts that the alliance last week isn't true exist instead what happened in fact and in violation of even the accords and the agreements at that time was nato aggressively expanded. and a larger alliance that once promised peace had instead pledged bombs in troops to afghanistan going on a decade. and in its latest endeavor the largest air strikes into libya despite uniting a new strategic goals back in november libya has launched the allies if you dischord some countries don't want to actually you know shoot ground targets some.

air targets which are not. amidst the in-fighting it's unclear what motives are really behind the planes flying in the name of nato over the african country is a personal aspirations of a leader france was among the first to push for intervention france wants to get in on what i call the imperial condominiums a really kind of africa is it to showcase in a new arms race military buyers love to have weapons are tested in war if your weapon system does very well in a war you can count on sales going up in fact the only two planes now in contention for a ten billion dollar order of one hundred twenty six planes from india are the euro fighter typhoon and the french are a felt the very ones french and british allies have been flying over this. is an opportunity to oust the gadhafi regime that is u.s. policy but it often needs to go and prop up one more favorable to us foreign policy

interests try to. keep. the subject which of course describe it is a humanitarian. intervention a so-called humanitarian intervention that critics argue. was never warranted but which now may be causing a humanitarian crisis we didn't stop a bloodbath but we are prolonging and perpetuating the suffering of civilians in libya suffering that is now washing up on the shores of nato allies by the boatload of refugees though the united states has seemingly stepped back from libya he was the number one contributor to nato and therefore many would see the us really as being nato now this comes at a time when the conflict in libya on the ground more and more people are calling a stalemate and amid the allied and fighting as well as rising in every sense that same question people have an appetite for decades comes to mind after the. nato

lauren lyster r.t. washington d.c. believe in government claims a nato air strike has killed eleven muslim clerics in the city of braga the coalition's as a facility of bond was being used to coordinate attacks on civilians and so nato activists are things the alliance is intimidating the entire world where the libyan campaign we're talking about. the story for us and you know very little bit with the promise earlier preserving. years ago they've. both been forty fifty sixty days and they want to stop until they will change their life it's from the other nations around the world have received to this it was you know a movie versions of the united states britain france germany sweden. were ones you can do the same. for often supervillains the on the this is what you are threatening me with this is working for you we don't believe all of this. and your

political terms this is a dangerous organization that is we are promising the world through world community needs to go certain strongly support this work out of the united nations and martin who are some of the military people of this in georgia resolved in the war. in syria security forces opened fire on thousands of kurds asters killing at least six people on fridays soldiers tried to head off demonstrations by occupying mosques and blocking public squares according to eyewitness accounts meanwhile international pressure is mounting on the syrian authorities over the brutal crackdowns united states is war in syria that it will pursue additional steps to hold the country responsible for its gross human rights abuses along with the e.u. the u.s. has already imposed sanctions against the country with washington also examining whether president bashar assad's eleven hero is legal given rise groups say as many as eight hundred fifty people have been killed since the start of the revolt

well beyond the glitz and glam there's another story playing out on the streets of india's most populous city. i think up at six pm and walk to a village that is running hard to get to book itself drinking water. this is shun him on a gaap she's twelve years old and her life in mumbai literally revolves around finding water is cooler than it is that i don't go to school because i have to work on my mormon dad look at your clothes and they have to go so i have to stand back and walk at home from morning to evening in this it's actually more common to see a satellite dish bringing these people cable t.v. than it is to see a working tap to bring them water one point two million people in mumbai live in an authorised slum and are entitled to government services like water even after walking hours to get to a tap the water only runs a specific times for sometimes as little as ten minutes. while the people in

a couple his community have managed to find a broken pipe in a gutter not far from their homes many indians are spending up to ten percent of their salaries to buy usable water water access isn't just a problem that affects people living in the slums actually thirty five percent of households in mumbai receive less than the desired one hundred liters of water per person per day and many of those people live in middle class communities. still one is known by housewife despite living in a more modern apartment so wants to has to schedule her day around when she can get water. we get water at four am for one and a half since we just had to put just one in a hospice we have to wake up early and get all our work done so want us to fill the two. on her roof during the time the city gives her access to water and if she needs more than the tank of water she's able to fill she's out of luck barter is an issue that seems to affect everyone here at five but there isn't one man has

managed to escape the problem again is look a somebody who's worth twenty seven billion u.s. dollars and his house there are hydroponic hanging gardens swimming pool water and he reportedly has a five hundred thousand years of water every month it's something that angers me while most are used to seeing the great contrast between rich and poor on a daily basis they believe that it's access and waste that is unfair. we have come to give a member don goodman what a collected from being used if there is a shortage of what we are going to give him when we came here to get him this mr and for those who have no choice but to plan their j. around water retrieval it's a painful reminder that even when it comes to basic necessities the wealthy elite still has the advantage. but i feel bad in the hose me get wonderful only one and a half when they have enough want to even to waste it

a constant battle to meet their dealing needs preassure either party mumbai india. now more on the way for you are to including to share are not to share as in us decide whether to worry is as debt ceiling american speak out. so i think the only political system that's kind of relevant to christianity is socialism and i i don't think jesus will be very happy with us not sharing. more international news for you in greece israeli security forces clashed was palestinians and inscrutable in the west bank on friday a hair out of now by day some protesters hurled stones and soldiers who responded was water cannons and tear gas for. poorer say at least one person was killed and nearly a dozen were arrested by dave marx the founder of a state of israel in nine hundred forty eight after which some seven hundred
