as. you. can we've been government loses a billion dollars after investing it with the u.s. banking giant goldman sachs meaning the country has joined the huge number of american citizens a ripped off by wall street and. we think what's happening is a shift towards a ground operation. russia's foreign minister slams nato's deployment over time helicopters in the media as a step closer to a ground invasion at the alliance uses them for the first time against colonel gadhafi is false is. also a fire that's been raging for almost two days and ammunition dumps in the central russia has been through town leaving around ninety injured. this is loose for

freedom hundreds of dollars at washington's jefferson memorial hall they say that constitutional right after four i were arrested for breaking upon and dancing in the landmark we pick up. and a very warm welcome from all of us here in moscow this is r.t. with me thanks for joining us the libyan government's sovereign wealth fund could become another casualty of the american financial behavior was goldman sachs while the bank is being investigated by the u.s. government for its role in the two thousand and eight mortgage crisis reports have also surfaced that it lost ninety eight percent of tripoli's money it was handling which is roughly a billion dollars three years ago that is marina portnoy reports from new york the bankers are hardly concerned. and long before the us. us led airstrikes against

libya's moammar gadhafi the dictator and one of america's most profitable banks were first financial friends in two thousand and eight according to the wall street journal goldman sachs offered khadafi the chance of becoming a huge shareholder only after losing in ninety eight percent of libya's one point three billion dollars sovereign wealth fund in just a few months they lost a staggering percentage i don't know how you lose ninety percent of something it was that on options on the european banks and energy companies whose stocks plunged shortly thereafter but in any case clearly they saw a goldmine in khadafi when the fund controlled by colonel qadhafi nearly empty goldman ponied up offers to recoup losses according to the journal libya would get five billion dollars worth of gold and shares in return for making three point

seven billion dollar investment in the securities firm libya agreed to buy the banks debt with the promise of a lucrative annual six percent return for twenty years goldman knew it was about to hit into a nosedive and there they were selling. these libyans a piece of junk which was themselves libyan sovereign wealth fund officials are reportedly accusing goldman of misrepresenting investment deals and making trades without proper authorization but others proudly admit playing fast and loose with his money american bill is state and reality show tycoon donald trump boasts that he lied to n.b.c. the libyan leader in the past i read to them a piece of land he paid me where i don't. know where to store it but all year after three years i don't do it a neutral way and we should be doing more sent over a new job we want to use the words cooperation out of now critics say the libyan

people. stands to get screwed by wall street trump's comments were very interesting in terms of the attitude that american executives and american officials have towards other countries need there to be screwed and he said it publicly and he advocated it as a policy and he did it personally due to frozen assets and financial sanctions imposed by the us europe and the united nations libya's sovereign wealth fund arguably the forgotten about unless one of the world's top financial firms is held accountable so americans have been demanding that for years without any success duffy achieve what the american people and the american government can't or won't achieve i don't think so i think that they are going to get away with this you know big billion dollar boondoggle with libya just as they've done it with america goldman sachs is currently being investigated for playing

a major role in the two thousand eight hundred folks crisis a crisis that cost americans millions of their jobs homes and life savings while a military conflict currently divides the u.s. and libya uniting citizens of both countries is the financial game wall street has made at their expense or in upper nile artsy new york. and florida based investment by bernie coleman says the bank straight into could be part of a bigger. when you two percent of the world oil supply you become a target these sovereign nation firms have been the primary target of some of the biggest and best known worldwide but the obama administration has created a criminal investigation that is now getting information or sources tell us they have good evidence that the bakers were told that the materials they were selling in these other nation phones were truly bad assets they knew they were bad assets

and they were moving them or nearer and putting them on the accounts of libya and norway and iceland and that's a crime. under the american banks troubles worse and so does the country's deficit . of unless you have a debt ceiling great cannes no other reality experts say the move could only mean. country south here of course in a few minutes. nato has launched its first helicopter attacks and leave it striking several military targets around the port of bragger russian foreign minister sergei lavrov has denounced the deployment of the step towards a ground operation. we expressed our opinion over this escalation of the military operation we think what's happening is a shift towards a ground operation this would be very regretful because the violations of the security council resolution already taking place are more than enough to think about the attitudes towards us decisions. so british and french choppers are

targeted strategic oil port of bragger in the east until they control and be control of colonel gadhafi forces helicopters were deployed just days after nato extended its intervention for another three months they actually has a significant escalation of the coalition's military operations following intensified and try some recent us. are indications that the start which will produce a genuine libyan political process if you simply keep dictating things from the outside by supporting the rebels by saying that this person has the oldest person bringing somebody in announcing their son a particular individual is legitimate the other is more legitimate then you have to go to the country just go head on a dog the country rock in libya don't believe as i was trying to say that is foreign capitals determine who is going to lead the country and what is going to happen there has to be a political process so our idea is that there must be

a cease fire as quickly as possible because it can produce a situation where civilians are not going to suffer any longer meanwhile the u.k. foreign secretary has made a surprise visit to the pressing expressing support for the rebel journalist and actually returned to funds that william hague is holding talks with one of the signs accused by some of war crimes as it is a. deliberate. attempt at stopping any type of peace process or we now know is that william hague the british foreign secretary is seated there and he says he's in with the rebels the u.n. panel in the past few days and said that there are war crimes being committed by some of the rebels. the british foreign secretary never came to an international criminal court decision i'm sure he'll be being subpoenaed. it's looking more and more like it is still with only russia and china holding any cards to play at the moment. and now to the u.s. capitol where hundreds have been done singing of the jefferson memorial in order to

exercise their first amendment rights last week on t.v. america has adam kokesh was arrested with four other protesters at the landmark for doing the same thing oh he's going to strip parent has more from our d.c. bureau. this is what i saw the crowd was this cursed sort of pushed out of the jefferson memorial but dozens of people really risked being arrested for just peacefully dancing at the memorial everyone had this fear that it could happen at any time to many it sounded like a joke you know that because freedom is you know the first amendment of the us constitution explicitly protect freedom of assembly and actions that symbolically express a view point if those actions are not harming anybody and one could think what could be more harmless than dancing people who took part in this dance for freedom flashmob say they do it to remind of their constitutional rights which they claim are being breached recently there was a court decision specifically regarding the thomas jefferson memorial that prohibited dancing there that's what triggered the movement if you will last week

a small group of people protested the decision with its filing of the new realty we were brutally west big one of them was an iraq war veteran civil rights activist adam kokesh who is a recently also has his own show on r.t.e. just a week later thousands of people after the arrest in different cities by the way not only in washington d.c. joined him and others to say no to police brutality take a listen. to everything else after all the other violations were pretty much the trashing of the economy after everybody who suffered in this country under the boot heel of the police today is coming under dancing that's the only freedom we have locally going to come and enjoy it for people who say oh we believe in liberty we believe it is high ideals and then when it comes down to something like this and all the sudden divided on it something's wrong obviously for a lot of people this dance washed up has turned into something very symbolic especially here in washington at the thomas jefferson memorial he is one of america's most founding fathers jefferson envisioned america as a great quote and part of liberty liberty which as many were saying today americans

are getting further away from with every other court decision it's not just about dancing in a public place of course there's a lot more serious stuff many here are talking about the post nine eleven patriot act that her. curtailed many of their cars if you hold freedoms and other in new league introduced laws as well so this they're saying flash mob is just one symbolic drop you get a little what they see is why lation of their rights. and you can watch the full video they've dancing demonstration of the jefferson memorial. and coming up later in the program what does your iphone say about you. so we'll find out how popular a tech device can also become a thrusting individual write. about a fire at an ammunition dump own central russia has been put out after two days of people were hurt well two elderly women died from heart attacks after

a series of violent explosions triggered by the blaze almost thirty thousand residents who were evacuated are returning to their homes peter one of our reports from the. thousands forced to flee from their homes as a fireball turns the night sky orange. the fire that broke out at the military munitions depo on thursday night left the local population many of whom are elderly terrified and fleeing in their thousands. suddenly there was a big and their windows smashed i thought even big thunder in. my dad's get up and down and went all through the night like that i was praying i remembered. god might help me stay alive. two elderly people suffered heart attacks believed to have been brought on by shock and died many of the old couldn't escape so he didn't watch over shell so it was available to them. then mainly elders who hid in

basements and were evacuated by rescue teams over move them to hospitals and evacuation centers no one understood what was going on so everybody took cover as best as they could helicopters and other aircraft. we are used to douse the flames from above while bomb disposal experts removed any damaged ordinance authorities say the danger has passed that mystically myriad behind the ammunition warehouse the station itself was cleaned up to the make sure that the environment is c. for the people living around here all the residents will bid for true to their homes by the end of the be. a local shop and several houses were looted in the chaos for leave she got bored fled with just the clothes on his back after an anxious wait he can now return home to check on his property was that the main thing is that we do pains didn't get shattered the inside it's all got messed up by the blast all the lights and curtains are down the furniture is all over the place

the incident here coupled with a similar fire in bashkirian last week has led the president medvedev calling for a full investigation into what happened he suggested that heads will roll regardless of rank if it turns out that safety procedures weren't here too it seems the two fires in two weeks has proved to be true for too many for the president oliver r.t. is yes. and you can get the latest on dates and the situation in russia's republic of adversity as well as thought spectacular videos of the fired last online traditional going to be our see through video section to check out unique footage of the area so i imagine there's a using planes to monitor the troubled region and you can view and and download the high definition video at free video dougherty dot com. free. free. free. free free.

likes you. and remain you who advocated for very obvious strategic reasons and didn't meet any particular conditions at all in so doing the real reason that serbia is outside the e.u. club as it were is that the serbian secession is problems of course or has not been resolved that's a situation that still needs to be resolved and the e.u. prefers serbia to negotiate regarding that situation whilst on its knees which is a position that is the public is very familiar with those original figures eight thousand claim of the kind of out from these are bigger which islam is side they were prepared in advance. thousands of people were hidden soldiers and redrafted backings of the. islamist forces without their families even being informed so there is certainly a great deal of exaggeration in the figure the tribunal is justifying his existence it was set up by madeleine albright's to point an accusing finger at the serbs and so hide the existence of a joint criminal conspiracy to destroy the state the serbs and form the state of

yugoslavia over half of the heart of the adult population of serbia died to form the male population so he died to former yugoslavia which was destroyed by the west of ours and the hague tribunal is there to create an entirely different picture it's the one son of most of europe where people are held for years without trial waiting for trial when they're when the overt is known in advance in fact is even worse than the guantanamo bay of europe because at least there in the guantanamo bay the judges know what the rules are at the hague tribunal this kind group called the rules are worked out as they go along and always at the expense of the serbs. and. deputy head of sales the online magazine spiked so it's going on in behaving now it's a show trial with the outcome already set and standing but i don't think there's anything. fair about this trial it's all about the whole process. or what's what's happening it is that the kind of the outcome is kind of been. set already it's

a bit of a show trial i think. as a result i think it's very much about bolstering the west's position and making the west look like it's a free defender of justice and the largest has already been certified as the bad guy in this i'm not for a moment thinking that she's our wonderful human being but the crimes on all sides are not war and to pick out one side has been worse than the other is a bit peculiar of the situation was much murkier there were opportunists nationalists politicians on all sides and some fairly brutal people behind them as well. and you can always find more in all the stories we're covering on our website r.t. dot coms and let's take a look at the last line up for you that writes. the pledge for know the edges of russia is the import of fresh vegetables from all e.u. member states find out how to market tomatoes and cucumbers has made it on to the

many of the top table of all it takes salty dog. george w. bush alongside i don't hate discovered house made it to the list of the worst people of all time published in american school you ever. read his credit rating agency has warned of a downgrade to america's aaa status of a failed to turn the massive year has that warning that the risk of edge of fraud while small is increasing ratings downgrade it would force the u.s. to pay higher interest on its massive dead it's like a negative effect on the world economy and also deep in its stead beyond the fourteen point three trillion dollars limit said just last month and economist peter schiff says this will only make

a bad situation where we have to do is start borrowing all this money you mentioned earlier that one of the problems is that we have to raise the debt ceiling that's one of the only good things out there that debt ceiling is still there unfortunately they're going to raise it we're going to go deeper into debt which means bigger problems and this is not good the economists are describing this is the stock this is not it's quicksand and the economy is the soft palate these are the same people who wanted two thousand and seven so the u.s. economy had never been in better shape they didn't see this crisis coming right never understood the problem of the u.s. economy and they still don't understand and they think that government stimulus made the problems better it did it would allow the problems to get worse. so the number of americans finding new workers at its lowest level in eight months and our resident reporter in new york has hit the streets to find out why it's worth paying for education where there are no jobs a dead end of the line. with

today's tough job market is there worth spending hundreds of thousands of dollars for college education this week let's talk about that i mean known to be way out of range and if you go to the top schools and you the rich people can afford it why is that good do you think that would set us back over the long run in terms of what we can produce really is i think if you look around it you economy and the rich are getting rich and the poor are getting poorer and the middle class is falling away new people are seeing this in your real estate in the teeth to new economy i think american people are suffering gigantic con 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 so 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 what is the be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars even at that point i don't think so i live on one year of accounting i took undergraduate. millions of dollars on that one course which i only paid two hundred dollars for i own a business i hire the best people i can get if you're not if you have a college if you don't have a college education don't even come to my office and apply to what you where did you go to college i went to college in texas and you use what you learned every day absolutely do you think it depends on what field you're in possibly but let me tell you this without an education you just have a whole lot tougher time in life but we're also told that we all have to go otherwise we won't succeed. when offered a choice not to go to. pfizer. need to go how much does college

cost in poland. any it costs hundreds of thousands of dollars. the bottom line is that most employers still think a college education is important and ultimately it's their opinion right or wrong that. all your personal data just one click away a smartphone may be the handiest way to store information from far the safest. discovering how the privacy of your phone can become public knowledge. of your i phone for you and who can access this information. even when i'm not making a phone call and just walking around with every step tracked my very graphical location if i don't decide to connect to the world. by cafe my phone records as
