government plans to send terrorism weather disaster that is directly the cellphone critics say it's just spreading panic not protection. live from moscow this is our t. welcome as one of. our top story this hour europe's most wanted war crimes fugitive has lodged an appeal in a serbian court against attempts to have him extradited to the hague to stand trial for bosnian serb general charged with ordering a murder of around eight thousand muslim men and boys in one thousand nine hundred five his country reports from belgrade. the lawyer for the former bosnian war general has already posted his appeal now of course that is acceptable according to serbian law to send the appeal not to deliver it file it at the courthouse or deliver it by hand but actually mail it through the post many here of

course are believing that that is a delay tactic employed so that article what it is extradition could be delayed and once that appeal is received by the court then a panel of three judges will have three days to determine whether to grant him that appeal or whether to approve his extradition not many here in serbia of course believing that that appeal will be granted those including his very own son who we managed to speak to a little earlier he told us that he believes the hague tribunal where his father may well be extradited by the end of this week is nothing but a political tool for calling for the proverbial truth where there's no need for comment here the state of the system is clear is it justice or something else the events that happened in the balkans were the question of law geopolitics or someone else's interests i believe that all the peoples of former yugoslavia of victims we

let ourselves be involved in a war in the twentieth century for the third time for the sake of foreign interests and no one emerged as the winner of the balkan crisis was created much earlier it's long been unfolding before our eyes and it has nothing to do with law or justice and the law this tribunals is going to provide a cover for it's have come of this has been on the run for sixteen years and has suffered two strokes the sixty nine year old former general is in very poor health physically and mentally according to his lawyers and his family serbia is looking to gain access to billions of dollars worth of grant aid should of course be granted e.u. membership and capturing article modish was one of. key conditions for that the people on the streets saying they believe the modish is a national hero is exactly why they took to the streets of the serbian capital belgrade on sunday getting together some ten thousand people rallied just outside

the serbian parliament that rallies in turn violent when you started throwing firecrackers rocks which bricks huge rocks throwing them at riot police arrive at least and of course decided to disperse the crowds doing that rather efficiently by separating people into smaller groups preventing them from regrouping in the center we saw a lot of people injured according to officials information i knew only thirty people were injured in the protest those are his countrymen is there of reporting from belgrade for us to right close manages lawyer says that he's now male be appeals to the court will review the plea before deciding whether to ship his client to a foreign policy analyst boy or british police or even if it makes it to the tribunal few in serbia have faith in the way it works. many process is there have been first of all very long and we can talk about the efficiency of the tribunal

the people have spent an enormous amount of time in the hague and a lot of people here in serbia are skeptical about some of the practices of the high hague tribunal and some of its records for instance. because slobodan milosevic the late president of yugoslavia and serbia actually died in prison without a conviction then for us war criminals that are generally knowledged as war criminals here in serbia. but i do know from course. muslim commanders have actually been acquitted after. sudden death of witnesses or after the tribunals simply concluded that there was not enough. so basically but many serbs do not consider the hague tribunal to be

unbiased and fair and in the minds of those people. it is questionable whether whether this trial will be will be fair it was foreign policy analyst talking about how he thinks relations trial in the hague is likely to go. britain is stepping up pressure on colonel gadhafi but deploying apache attack helicopters and bunker buster bombs in libya comes as nato chief says the libyan leader's reign of terror is nearing an end result he's there and that reports next ukase decision seems to be moving far beyond mere humanitarian objectives. and in next ripple trends towards escalation that's what analysts are calling british involvement in the libya conflicts as the u.k. prepares to send in apache attack helicopters. they can fly low they can fly slow so they can hit targets that force jets cannot hit from the air they also involve terms of risk they can be shot down much more easily than a force jet so the possibility of the surplus not be captured on the ground has

just gone up the apaches which will be joined by a contingent of french helicopters can maneuver in built up areas and attack fairly small targets they'll make it easier to take out arms stalls and target places where colonel gadhafi may be hiding it's part of prime minister david cameron strategy to turn up the heat in libya they seem to think that if they quote the un resolution at the same time as they call for. regime change it's a crime to guarantee. frankly they're involved in a civil war. helicopters apache helicopters the intensive bombing of tripoli that's going on this is a war about regime change the helicopters markedly the latest escalation of this conflict following the no fly zone nato centered visors to train the rebels introduce strain patrols and by the first week of may that nearly six thousand

strike sorties trickly subjected to the heaviest. recent hugo posed to the sun tabloid newspaper less than half the presidents now support the intervention in libya but that number's likely to plummets once steve k. troops are in significantly more danger just why. god forbid people happened. don't even think about it so the issue is we haven't dropped any blood yeah we've dropped tens of of millions. but not one single one of. the. people have marched against the libya war here in the u.k. but in small numbers can catch the million that march the head of the invasion of iraq helicopters bring the fighting closer to the ground with a high risk of death and angry opposition and the government might be able to

defend that is known as the new strategy makes rapid progress but it doesn't many see the net that has troops on the ground think. that the u.n. resolution that is how did they live day to be enforced in libya you're at is healthy young to. sort of project hayes is a journalist from the spiked online magazine told me all the coalition has done so far in libya is to take the credit momentum away from the people. the situation is getting worse for the west in libya i think when they first thought they could kind of swoop in two months ago and basically bomb the country into the into democracy they thought this is going to be quite a quick process where they could basically keep their hands you know keep a bit of a distance hold bombs into libya get rid of gadhafi and then everything will be all right no obviously that isn't the case and the introduction of these bunker busting forms in the apache helicopters are inevitably going to make decision worse they could bring about severe civilian casualties in libya and i think also reek of

desperation maybe making a lot of noise and for a lot of very expensive bombs over the last couple of months but i see you have done very little well they've ripped the democratic initiative from the libyan people and taken it into the hands of a small elite of western leaders soon as the no fly zone was implemented as soon as the decision was made by cameron by celko the by obama to intervene in what was effectively a civil war to basically just throw aside the whole idea of national sovereignty and say we're going to intervene on behalf of the libyan people the poor helpless libyan people you can't save their own matters into their own hands then really it was a very slippery slope from the offsets from the no no fly zone to bombing to potentially ground troops it's very hard to predict what's going to happen but by no means should that be ruled out it could happen and it could happen very soon they're desperate to try and end this conflict but they don't really know how to do

it so i think they're going to throw everything at it and see what sticks. this is our c moscow still ahead a cia travel agent for we report why the case of an airline accused of making money from flying terror suspects around the globe as we dismissed. a farewell ceremony has been held for the late president of cars here after his body was laid in straight in the russian capital so good gaps died of lung cancer at a moscow hospital on sunday many leading politicians including president would bet is going to pay their last respects. sixty two years old in a letter because they are for the last six years during his struggle to retain independence from georgia because your sovereignty was recognized by russia in two thousand and eight following with georgia's military assault on another compatable public service thirty year because of his body is now being flown to a cause of you know this funeral will be held on thursday. in

america big brother has a mobile all these learned how to text the u.s. government now is a system that can send emergency alert to everyone from blizzards to terror threats the warnings will go straight to people's mobile phones but i think it's creating needless panic his art is really important i have found out. the country that created i phones. has more than three hundred million wireless users and in the name of national security the u.s. government will soon have a direct link to each and every handheld device it's like a piece of stone it's there for a good reason but we hope that we never have to pull the trigger gathered at the scene of the september eleventh terrorist attacks federal in new york city officials join the c.e.o.'s of the four largest wireless carriers to announce the nation's new tech tools and alert system enabling the president and government agencies to blast every american with text messages warning of terror threats

weather disasters and kidnappings the cell phone alert system will launch in new york city and washington d.c. by the end of this year expanding nationwide there our wireless users may have the option of not receiving certain alerts but americans will not be able to opt out of messages sent by the u.s. president opponents say politicians are promoting more fear while providing little protection now we have a system of mandatory and inescapable alerts to every cell phone in the land in the event that the government decides that something's happening that we ought to know about that just as the introduction of the patriot act came right after nine eleven so this new kind of technological innovation comes to us without any public discussion right after the assassination of osama bin laden n.y.u. professor and author mark crispin miller says americans are living in an age of creeping authoritarianism and scare tactics the use of fear for any kind of

government that craves more control over people's lives and thoughts is that it makes people malleable it makes them obedient i mean you go to any airport today. and you can see this in action people are meekly taking off their shoes and moving to get in groped under the auspices of airport safety babies senior citizens and everyone in between must now endure pat downs or pass through body scanners before boarding in the case of muslim americans that may not be enough sixty's following the killing of osama bin ladin for him alms on two separate u.s. flights were illegally kicked off planes for looking suspicious and you have a few hate mongers who who can can can evoke emotions you know enough of people do they play on people's emotions good play on people's ignorance about islam and muslims you see and also this was created a climate of fear you see if you see something suspicious in

a parking lot or in the store say something immediately in december the department of homeland security began encouraging americans to report suspicious activity to the country's largest food retailer wal-mart partnership with washington has been accused of perpetrating a climate of panic and subsequent need for more surveillance you need to create an enemy for people to rally behind and list wars and the fact that we're spending over fifty percent of our taxes on war and our national defense and there's really no threat directly to this country and they need to keep this spending following the assassination of enemy number one and american lawmaker called for an increase in riyadh safety funding and the creation of a no ride list as u.s. officials warn of more terror threats following than laden's death many americans remain concerned others are left wondering about the dangers of for seeking too much liberty for security. are he or. for seeking

liberty for security is very hard and i support too just this month the u.s. supreme court chucked out the case of an airline accused of providing planes with a controversial extraordinary addition program the practice of terror suspects allegedly being transferred secret cia prisons abroad for interrogation and. torture us military attorney eric montalvo told me that this case could have been tried but the u.s. stance on the program prevented the process. there been several attempts to go after me administration through you know various legal avenues this one is trying to call a private company is being involved in a legal or operations with the u.s. government and the u.s. government's primary defense to this is the state secrets that's your bottom instructions adopting what is in president bush's previous position that if they

allow these lawsuits to go full or it'll our real state secrets such as intelligence and mechanisms and how we're losing and we're moving people out and that's risky to national security so the suit can't go forward well you know there are ways to adjudicate matters closed doors i mean there have been many cases that the united states has tried were classified material has been presented release issues have been addressed well i think the most sensitive issue here is the cooperation between the u.s. government and other progress in this and it's somewhat symptomatic of weakening the x. scenario that happened earlier in the u.s. is not interested in revealing its cooperation with various nations not some arab which if they did reveal their cooperating with us we create their own internal problems so i think this is one matter that is as i was to you know a legal position. it's like ability to see the consulate it was

a lot of course there to catch your interest is a taster a few stories you might like to see tonight former russian tycoon mikhail khodorkovsky who serving time for stealing oil plans to request early parole but his lawyer says he is not going to admit guilt with all background long running story although it's not it out see the point also story broke yes the u.s. father of freedom witness is a distinct lack of liberty is the american present other rockall by police with dancing with thomas jefferson memorial a firsthand account of what happened there it's all captured as well on camera at r.t. dot com. also in the news germany's agreed to shut down all of its nuclear power plants twenty twenty two breaking the biggest industrial power to give up on atomic energy the reversal in government policy follows the crisis that your plans fukushima plant triggered mass protests across germany almost a quarter of the country's legible power is provided by nuclear stations of the government's now seeking alternative sources. security forces and you have

a new shot dead at least twenty protesters in the southern city of. police try to storm the main square there the center of anti-government demonstrations president ali abdullah saleh refusing to step down despite months of protests and strong opposition from a key try and in zinjibar witnesses say give me warplanes and carried out airstrikes on hundreds of al qaeda militants seized the city we plan to. use them for lying more than two hundred demonstrators have been injured during clashes with police the crowd armed with sticks and stones are marching against the post pension reform and police used tear gas and buttons to call the protests but the result is the live ammunition when the only state is broken for police station. at least four people have been killed dozens injured after twenty bomb blasts in the afghan city of how that two suicide bombers attacked an italian one there was a number of other insurgents trying to get inside the taliban recently declared the spring offensive a planet. violence follows

a recent nato strike in the country which killed fourteen civilians mostly. moscow time next on r.t. as europe pushes its preferred candidate to take over the i.m.f. other countries argue that a non european should get the job. russia's eye right now is the head of ca's external national bank he's been talking to r.t. about his ideas for reforming the powerful financial body.

then outmanned of his candidacy for the automatic top dog came just as big of a surprise to him astor the rest of financial community but a big one in march and could quickly garner support of a number of east european countries including russia and is now ready to take on the role of not only a surprise candidate but also a surprise when are you going marching on the current chief of kazakstan central bank joins us now on our team thank you very much for your time sir you told reporters previously. you learned about these things now and sometimes through the s.m.s. message how did it come about. was a must. to do your own assessment of world's financial sector present for several messages from our prime minister and from what i understand there was a decision taken after consultations during the meeting with. prime ministers of

serious countries and he and i wasn't part of these discussions after the session i was immediately after some of the porters. came as a surprise but very different support. that i show you could say has come from speaking about your own account of the sea what do you think you can bring to the table personally and as a representative for our. country first of all i had my practical. three week three men program and department of monetary and exchange affairs in one thousand nine hundred four this is very different from a lot of european politicians who do not really know. how to get information and also another big difference is that because our study was on the receiving end of a program with them with maintaining and actually when they receive so. when i became

the governor for the first time in one thousand mentioned in may of two for them eleven years ago we were the first serious country peacefully deeply in my faith and plugs in the program but that's a lot of difference from developed countries were always more than a given and the situation changes only recently and as you know all countries like portugal greece and ireland all want the very substantial packages from miami now one of your strongest rivals is the french finance minister who is neither a banker and nor an economist she's actually a lord trained in the united states what sort of masses do you think her account of this. the rest of the financial community especially to the bric countries i think she's a very good candidate so i do not know her personally but everybody speaks very highly of her and difficult issues of in person for the first sort of business lady

and the minister and she was voted by several newspapers and magazines as the first sort of finance minister in europe and she deserves a lot of credit for becoming the first female finance minister. in europe but at the same time you have for instance former finance minister of indonesia. and becoming the first frame once female finance minister in the very big muslim country. i would see even the bigger the becoming here. female finance minister and leader of friends but this. is very much a message that the developed countries and the european countries would like to maintain the status quo which is not necessarily fair and i think that changes. have already started but probably they do not go. enough do you think the

emerging economy. great countries in particular should rally around one single candidate does it make sense. yes but not necessarily i mean. i don't put my kind to the same if there is someone it can it's not a beauty contest in the vote someone being put forward or more diplomatic or having a better program it's more a bold who is electable and if somebody else is electable or more electable them myself well that's fine it's not about me it's a. developing companies trying to are serve themselves i'm trying to change the sound fair system maybe it was for in one thousand fifty's and sixty's but this and it's not fair in a more if you are elected. what sort of policies would be on top of your agenda great discussion with with us. because a lot of distance european debt crisis because this is a really big issue. or the situation in the u.s.

economy and that's what i would very much like can be for research. departments and i am i think was they've been producing some excellent papers in the last fifteen years quite unfortunate they're not getting as much polite to do as much good if as they deserve i think that i am ethanol this sixty five years. to remember some knowledge of knowledge and how this knowledge is not always proposed distributed or. police or makers in different countries and i think that would be a. very important objective for the quiver he's the managing director of miami thank you very much for your time sir and good luck there can't it's my pleasure.

did i kill innocents here i was a call this of course and that's never answered. mama something that's cosco with me i think of it every day. of the flies fired from a memory. in the last month so much so long time this year trying. i was ashamed. i was ashamed that i even knew. i was ashamed that i hadn't a clue. why i got my goat the legs come along. in the mind. what i want to be our nominee the more fortunate. that out believe what i was going on once or i think. that i was a good fellow. but you know our most older on the other side and i think i'm just
