hands to build a democratic could be in the libyan soil and washington they join hands with those seeking to replace gadhafi and take over power in libya to help prop them up the u.s. pledged to funnel billions of dollars of productive sproles and assets to the transitional council i am currently drafting legislation at the request of the state department and the administration that will authorize the transfer of available cash assets to the council but the support from washington comes not only in money and tomahawk missiles but also in military command one of the commanders of the levy unravel r.t. is gen calif i have heard a long time khadafi to factor he leave didn't lushington suburb for the last twenty years before he took off to leave here in march this year to command the rebel forces calif i have her leave just minutes away from cia headquarters although any intelligence connections have never been officially confirmed at the moment we have
3:05 am
cia operatives all over eastern syria and i can cia agents already there even before obama recognize it and who has going for it or eastern libya along with working alongside french intelligence and british s.e.'s as well they are manipulating the agenda of this transitional council some analysts say the u.s. is using the turmoil in libya to propel to power people who would be loyal to their interests if having been there for forty years plus had a will of his own so he had a significant degree of independence and he had his own policies you look at this collection of jew grill joe yunus and if there are these people are foreign agents they are nato stooges there they are completely controlled and they will never be able to assert. kind of independent autonomous. property regime and that this will degenerate into chaos right now the rebels can only exist with complete
3:06 am
nato support and number of leaders who were propped up by washington have based popular discontent in egypt hosni mubarak had been extensively supported by the us the decades despite the mess the disapproval of his policies yemen has seen violent protests over the rule of its president who many believe has managed to hold on to power only things to u.s. support and the government of hamid karzai in afghanistan has been struggling with public discontent for years and u.s. and its allies will go into the stablish some sort of a regime that we approve of but the process is not going to be a democratic one and in the long run the odds are overwhelming that the libyan people will reject that regime the american policy makers to talk about this kind of thing are not themselves deluded they know perfectly well what they're doing they know it's not going to work in the long run but they have other reasons for wanting to have short term gains having clearly taken sides in the libyan civil war washington is now seeking to forge strong ties with whoever might come to power

there but analysts say such an overwhelming support financial military and political never comes without strings attached i'm going to take our reporting from washington r.t. on the ground in libya nato airstrike cause fires at a security services building and a headquarters of the country's anti-corruption agency officials claim the coalition was trying to destroy files linked to corruption cases against the rebel leadership but two buildings are close to the residence of leader moammar gadhafi which has been a constantly hit by nato bombings british investigative journalist tony gosling says it's not often who should be targeted but it's the alliance itself. nato has shown in other campaigns around the world but it starts off with this sort of pretense that they want to have a sure. sharp war i want it it happens is it turns into a long protracted. war where actually who doesn't want out of this the military
3:08 am
industrial complex these massive military companies who are supplying all this weaponry to nato or the people who do best out of it i mean fact both sides. military congress from both sides do well so i think that i don't think that the nato side really want to make this a sure thing at all they actually would like a long protracted conflict and they would like ultimately to take control of libya's oil and libya's finances which is what this is all about we don't see colonel gadhafi going into foreign countries invading them bombing them attacking them we don't see these long protracted wars carried out by colonel gadhafi i think he's the least of our problems and we should see tony blair and george bush in the dock at the international criminal court. still to come on the program china's space time to. the chinese hoping to land a man on the moon by twenty twenty five and a man on mars by twenty forty. by answering these ambitions is the country's army causing some to wonder if star wars take two is approaching. and find

3:11 am
portugal ireland greece and spain and by far the biggest economy and therefore of the biggest concern is spain is really growing concern over the economic situation there we've got horrible statistics local most one in two young people in spain or out of work the question is being too big to fail that may be a saving grace that the euro zone countries simply called the forward to lead a because country as spain go by the wayside and fall as well. and i'll show reporting there and back was to study cars aren't going to preserve an already flawed euro that's according to rules and there is a minister at the european parliament from portugal. oh so that's a right i could use on google says a year ago susie's secure a crisis starts it's the original sea of ease with the architectural weakness is that the euro itself he said incomplete experiments the other one says that we can you know force our way out of this through austerity and that we can service our
3:12 am
debts through. budgets but i think that ultimately will carry the response is that is reality despite the security unsustainable so it will break the back of the camel sooner or later and you know it'll be sooner about the european governments especially for us and germany is once recognize that reality the us has reached its debt ceiling of fourteen point three trillion dollars and is now making emergency cuts to avoid defaulting the government is likely to take loans from two pension funds to help keep it afloat for a few more weeks earlier this year that i math war and washington it urgently needed to deal with its national debt congress is now to go shooting with a winehouse to see what america can borrow investment banker rochdale she told r.t. the country doesn't have leaders brave enough to tackle america's crisis well what all this will amount to is eventually the death of the dollar you know within
