libya could be part of a wider cone. when you have two percent of the world oil supply you become a target the sovereign nation funds have been the primary target of some of the biggest investment banks worldwide but the obama administration has created a criminal investigation and it is now getting information our sources tell us they have good evidence that the bakers were told the materials they were selling in the sovereign nation funds were truly bad assets they knew they were bad assets and they were moving them off their accounts and putting them on the accounts of libya norway and iceland and that's a crime. that is the list of u.s. banks troubles gets bigger so does the country's debt as the possibility of the debt ceiling being raised become more of a reality experts say the move could only mean more economic pain for the country. well the helicopters have hit their first targets in libya british and french truck

. with today's tough job market if they're worth spending hundreds of thousands of dollars for college education this week let's talk about that how much does college cost in poland college for free. any this paid for it costs hundreds of thousands of dollars so probably it's a problem. i get caught and young people from all over the world are bought off on it and it needs to stop now i'm not going to say that the government needs to pay for it but i think young people need to wake up and look around them and say you know it's not an accident that bill gates was so self taught maybe if kids took two or three years before they went to school and had a little life experience and then had some purpose to their study might make more sense. but he still be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars even at that point i

8:25 am
we can produce really is. i think if you look around your economy and the rich are getting rich and the poor are getting poorer and the middle is falling away people are seeing this in real estate in the new economy i think. the bottom line is that most employers still think a college education is important and ultimately it's their opinion right or run. that's another twenty five minutes past four pm on saturday here in moscow let's check out some of other news making headlines around the world this hour and dozens of been killed by security forces opened fire on protesters in the syrian city of hama a hundred thousand people poured into the streets in the largest demonstration since the uprising began in march witnesses say snipers were shooting from the rooftops while police fired tear gas and live. internet services have been cut to prevent demonstrators from posting videos of the crackdown. radiation levels have been
