its highly secretive national security council to london as the two countries pledged to deal jointly with perceived security and foreign policy challenges but at what cost to the rest of the world i don't think it will change foreign policy in any dramatic way i remember that britain already shares a huge amount of intelligence with the united states in fact britain's nuclear deterrent can't actually launch a nuclear missile on its own so in fact what is happening today is largely symbolic the special relationship phrase was a deeply contested one. blair was in power and his relationship with bush was seen in britain to be much more one of approval rather than a partner and yes in a sense it will be skies and popular was. not everyone welcomes president obama's presence in the u.k. a range of groups are using it as an opportunity to demonstrate against what they see as the anglo-saxon machine and islamist fringe organizations linked aggressive

a hostile to the us starting to achieve political guy three major wars being ten years those good news for those of us who want peace in the world to see these two cars corporate and more closely true affairs outside buckingham palace where obama is staying these protesters are trying to persuade him and british prime minister cameron to stop waging war in foreign lands so far it hasn't worked on cheese day obama and cameron we united in their intention to increase pressure on colonel gadhafi in libya obama's visit and this demonstration come as nato escalates its involvement in the war in libya francis says it will deploy helicopters bringing fighting closer to the ground the global goal machine grumbles though with the alliance of london and washington in the engine room and this new agreement to pull information and resources may only add fuel to the fire your

average r.t. . since the start of the campaign in libya the u.s. has taken a step back from the military action leaving its allies particularly the u.k. meyer there in williams of a new york based foreign policy in focus saying tank says america chose britain as the best servant in its war so bala can prepare for the next presidential elections . it seems to be a part of britain acting as the sort of the mercenaries for the united states and the u.s. is pulling out not because it's opposed to what nato is doing there it's to limit the domestic fallout for the obama presidency that's why it's pulling its forces out and also because i think wisely it realizes that it's standing in the middle east is bad and can only get worse with this continuing. it is one of the changing signs that as america gets weaker commercially and militarily relatively speaking

europe could exert itself a little more of it ever got its act together one of the reasons it can't get its act together is because of this relationship between the u.k. and the u.s. . in lidiane to is keeping out its one bartman of the capital tripoli launching its heaviest attack there since the start of a military state t.v. says multiple air strikes but a lot of downs killed nineteen people injured one hundred fifty others meanwhile the u.s. is bided the rebels transitional council to open a washington office marking a new step towards recognizing them as the country's official representatives. well more stories to come for you this hour here in our t.v. about ten minutes time we traveled to russia's republic of dagestan for ray or acquaintance. this path leads to a man who has a walk through three same trees while standing his biography it is possible terms of the development of

were really struggling against what is in the price and labor and the opposition parties fighting against what they call an undemocratic authoritarian system now we still did not come together and what they said was that they were planning for wednesday to big day of rage but they vowed to now the president saakashvili now we see with the demonstration that this undercurrents of disorganization between the opposition parties and certainly effected the turnout and is not know yet whether the parties are going to come together what we do know is the protest the certainly seems to be not so being confused by the message that they sense and as he said that things have affected the turned out great said to new ink ahead of the day that the plan is on. helping to run the military parade that will be taking place on freedoms. so first reporting there well on our web site r.t. dot com we've got more on the developing situation in georgia the opposition claims

protests there are building and well as president saakashvili we've got pictures of how the georgian authorities answer the street demos of course get away to stop the follow us on our twitter page that's r.t. underscore com. speaking before the u.s. congress the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu announced peace with palestine was an option unless israel keeps the occupied territories it brass caused al gore among palestinians who had the cried the speech as propaganda

riddled with lies as are obviously reports and certain to add tension to yet another battleground between the two sides. there is really palestinian conflict has reached an unlikely new field of battle where there are no borders and no generals calling the shots there isn't all therapists. except checking or a committee or something like that there is no chief editor or anything like that which is why we compete here and online encyclopedia is one of the world's most popular websites with sixteen million entries open for anyone to edit rewrite or even to raise the most popular of those pages the middle east there is an article i think practically about in the village of palestinian village that was destroyed during forty eight war is really the independence war and there are i think articles about any military operation that. launched during the history of the

conflict but both israelis and palestinians complain their side of the story is not properly covered propaganda is putting a label on israel and calling us apartheid state we fight by bringing in the actual facts where israel is the most progressive democracy in the middle east and for that matter the only democracy in the middle east and that's why not please you should cancel that represents the israeli settler movement has been organizing workshops to teach people how to post to advise and even rewrite some of the most disputed pages on line there's disagreement around terminology such as the word occupation and history of what happened in certain conflicts even the names of certain cities and towns what we do is we monitor our various media outlets and when we see for example that a certain media calls israel an apartheid then we send our people to engage in discussion and to give the facts but the palestinians have a list of people to send in which is why the battlefield is not equal according to

. who heads the association of palestinian journalists he says he wishes he had the kind of cash the israelis have trained. it's been used to brush up on the knowledge of we can pedia. i think people should stick to the truth and not try to learn how to put their point of view in the wiki pedia article i mean if you have sources just bring them on. but these were completely experts so it has nothing to do with training and everything to do with the truth i think people should stick to the truth and not try to learn how to put their point of view you know it could be the article i mean if you have sources just bring them on but in this war every bush of ammunition counts it's no secret that the revolutions the sweeping the arab world found their support online hundreds of thousands of people signed up on a facebook page calling for a third palestinian uprising well into fodder that page has since been closed down for inciting violence but the fight online continues policy our team.

as a spy washington's intensified efforts to bring the palestinians and israelis to the negotiating table the two sides find selves no closer to resolution are just paper of l. his guests discuss what it might take to achieve the long awaited and allusive peace process others coming your way later today. you have to understand palestinians see all of israel also as part of their patrimonial homeland and you nine hundred forty seven forty eight when israel was created palestinians were at least three quarters majority now when they recognize israel we need sixty seven borders they gave up seventy eight percent of what they regard as their country it is the mother of all compromisers and i think to ignore that and to look at the occupied territories in isolation from the rest of mandatory problems so on and so poor israel is being asked to give up this very important territory that so dear to us ignores what palestinians have already agreed to. take.
