worldwide news live from moscow this is r.t. research and to libya now where nato airstrikes and advancing rebel forces are tightening the noose around colonel gadhafi stronghold tripoli civilians in the capital live in constant fear of being killed and now a petrol shortage is making their lives even more difficult now those actions aimed at protecting civilians have only succeeded in stoking people's anger as maria for national reports. it's may have some of the largest oil reserves on the planet but these days labor's also got some of the longest keys at its pastoral stations thing to national sanctions imposed on the embattled colonel's regime did not include a few and. that nato is targeting. if this passes the fuel might be used by gadhafi

military forces with roads. factories at a stop and foreign workers long since gone from the war stricken country is facing its worst energy crisis ever the new reality is ordinarily been drivers now spend vast amounts of time queuing for fuel two months ago this became a common theme here maybe in a rich country people have been lining up to fill up their cars for hours even days but this line is a little different compared to the gas station at the end of this here is women only a marker is a universe to student and has volunteered here to help organize the process she stamps a few russian books which allow individuals to thirty five liters a week she believes it's a great idea to have women on the station as. women have too many things to do they don't fight each other world cueing and never shoot into the year is men often do so we're able to serve up to nine hundred cars in the lot of to look at. this

line is long but others are moving longer petrol still cheaper than water here just a few cents for litter it's just that is often in short supply. if there is no fuel we have two large cars and return reentry appears that could be days. when only gas stations is one of many innovations supposed to ease people's lives in a country that has there also special problems for ambulances and police cars. for the needle surrounded us but we should move on so we try to do our best to help people get by if we give up will die it's a lot of those seeking to oust colonel gadhafi may have been hoping the hardships will incite people to rise up against their leader but instead it only seems to be fueling people's hatred towards what they feel is western imperialism and need to nato damaged our city destroyed our. i they tell does they want to save people is

that the way to save the people tell me this is just a crime. while the warring sides try to find a way out of months of devastating conflict ordinary people looking for a way to just leave their everyday lives dreaming about times when these nightmare would be with a distant memory. tripoli. as the coalition is slammed by critics for straying from its u.n. mandate to protect civilians some analysts claim that was never even on nato's agenda radio host ralph schoenman told us here at r.t. that the interventions only aim is to divide and conquer with a view to seizing the natural resources. an imperial agenda the un is a fig leaf for pursuing imperial war and libya as in africa at large they want to carve up the country sees its resources and on

a basis of constant military intervention and the population itself is the target its resources will be usurped ploy for the benefit of foreign oil companies in the one nine hundred ninety s. that gadhafi regime was controlled by the central intelligence agency and khadafi privatized three hundred six companies and libyan oil was handed over to the major oil companies exxon shell the immobile but the upraising was the occasion for the intervention and demonising khadafi is they had saddam hussein in previously as a cover and pretext saddam was their man in baghdad for twenty seven years khadafi had worked hand in glove with the cia and with congolese arise in the ninety's so on but they demonize him now to give them cover for engender out of season the oil subjugating the population the population does not benefit from their natural resources because they had the disposal of foreign corporations on behalf of the united states and the western powers the resources go outward to the foreign

corporations that control them the population is a miss or aided countries with great wealth but they don't enjoy the benefit of it because of the class character of the regime and the nature of imperial power that controls and installs these regimes and maintains them. and still to come here on r.t. there is a fuel feud brewing in the middle east about how egypt's revolution looks set to trigger a gas shortage but in israel. u.s. officers are investigating the disappearance of nearly seven billion dollars sent by washington to fund the reconstruction of iraq the cash was flown in after the toppling of saddam hussein in two thousand and eight but is now completely unaccounted for a former bush administration official told me that the money went missing under the watch of the incoming cia chief david petraeus who was at that time in charge of america's mission in iraq pallets with american cash american currency was

stored in the basement of the republican palace saddam's main building headquarters building basically the seat of the iraqi government they say it was in volts well they don't say that the doors of the vaults were wide open i knew people that were that had walked past these pallets full of american money and anybody could have could have just walked in grabbed a stack of hundred dollar bills and walked away all of this stuff was going on while david petraeus was the commander of the multinational security transition command in iraq in zero four and zero five and this is the same period of time that one hundred ninety thousand a k forty seven and nine millimeter pistol pistols purchased by the u.s. government for the iraqi army national police disappeared the accountability of cold hard u.s. cash was essentially nonexistent for many years after the war and iraqi officials are threatening court action to get the money bag political analyst rick

young from the voice of russia radio station believes that baghdad has every right to demand the money. i would say they probably have some legal claim to that money and a legitimate claim to go to court the u.s. has already said that it took those the money from the oil but from those from the oil fields they've already taken that money they seized it in the sanctions against of hussein's iraq so the money is legitimately the iraqis the question is again if the u.s. government can't find the money they'll have to come up with it some way so my feeling is that they do have some claim to this money some legal claim and it's going to take some time to want to the courts whichever courts they choose to go through probably international courts to get this money back now the situation in iraq also leads our top world news stories for today an attack on a government compound at just north of baghdad has left at least nine dead and seventeen injured two car bombs went off outside the building during

with r.t. live from moscow it's nearly quarter past the hour here now that toppling over president mubarak in egypt is now turning up the heat on cairo's gas supply deal with israel interruption officials are probing allegations the agreement was a scam orchestrated by the mubarak family kairos reportedly considering raising gas export prices to israel or even suspending supplies altogether artie's now reports from tother. israel cannot be choosey in picking its energy resources it has few of its own and most of its neighbors are not willing to say there is which is why outsourcing secure energy is a hot issue in the middle east when ever we can get it and wherever we can go think we should and for the last six years israelis have been getting a lot of it from egypt and under water pipeline pumps natural gas from the egyptian city of elevation to the israeli port of ashkelon. but the revolution in egypt supported by the united states is backfiring on israel the interim government says it's not obliged to sell gas to israel and is pushing to renegotiate the agreement

i did her rewinds for several each option papers from israel he says the deal was always unpopular among egyptians to give people a. card. that this business is. not the. people the people the egyptian public prosecutor has since ordered an investigation into the deal former president hosni mubarak contributes sons are accused of having personally benefited from it which doesn't surprise you also of poets who set up the natural gas system in israel he was against the deal from the start not least because it was signed between israel and the east mediterranean gas company which is registered offshore and has no assets in egypt it was obvious the cheap date in. which were a custom in the arab world and it was also very obvious that one day if the president is not. is a go it's not going to rule egypt of course the whole contract is not worth the

paper it's written on the east mediterranean gas company declined our request for an interview egypt's natural gas supplies about forty to fifty percent of the electricity power stations in israel it can be replaced by other fuels but they're more expensive and dirty which is why boys are right is blogging frenetically online he writes about green issues and says the alternative options that israel has to the egyptian supplies are not that attractive to we're getting high price and we need to burn a lot of. much more pollutants in the us and the fact that we didn't develop the chordal plants electric planting timing will cause us to much more than we could. call station in place and working. if no agreement with cairo is reached tel aviv is going to have to function without natural gas for a year and so he's radial stepping up efforts to develop gas wells now being

discovered offshore but these two remain a source of dispute between israel and lebanon as beirut claims that there's either way the gas issue is likely to keep heating up or r t. now in a sense the u.s. has reportedly been backing the uprisings in the middle east the former congresswoman and one time presidential candidate cynthia mckinney about america's interests in the region here's a taste of that interview which is coming up next hour here on r.t. . really want to understand the motivations of u.s. policy we have to go back to what ray mcgovern who is a former cia analyst had to say and he described u.s. policy is being driven by all i and l. now what's all i in el sol for oil i for israel ellis for logistics and so he described the logistics as those logistics that were

needed by the neo cons to carry out their policies on behalf of israel. you with our two years could have a company today now russia is plagued by one of the highest rates of teen suicide in the world as many as four thousand attempting to kill themselves every year experts say it's the parents that are often at fault but not for not seeing the problems staring them right in the face but as artie's og's on a boycott reports there are many other forces at work. just days before final exams a t.v. crew was reporting and students gearing up for their lives that lay had of them the teachers pointed to bullying or the broader student who it seemed had her future figured out which i wish it were a stage i want to become a journalist because it's a very interesting and creative profession which would have been tossed to the world with this yet but instead of

a school living celebration pulling his classmates gathered like a funeral something she may not be the best she ended everything and hank herself with agendas and she would have been getting ready for the exam four weeks than believing i was the one who worked at the hardest of all she sold her note of math problems and she was very nervous she wanted to graduate isn't a great student you are many countries this trash of exams in late december and early june sees peaks in the number of children taking their own lives but in russia it's a year round problem roughly one and a half thousand children and teenagers kill themselves every year it's much higher than the average scene in the united states and britain. the problem is so out of hand that when i was in filming the president's about it he found it hard to believe but the figures are truly frightening every year thousand children make attempts on their lives. girls are up to four times more likely to attempt suicide

yet it's still boys who by a long way actually succeed in killing themselves. eagar is different he's trying to take his life three times the latest the time just six months ago. i just had enough i was tired of fighting with my mom my girlfriend left me i was fed up with studying i couldn't stand seeing the streets and hearing all this noise i just wanted everything to end and i want to peace what's driving the problem in russia is what experts call a low emotional literacy psychological or psychiatric help is underdeveloped and not easily available then there is the stigma given most suicides are attempted committed in the state of emotional distress which builds over time and there are warning signs but even if parents notice that many would rather ignore them than to take their kid to a psychologist or psychiatrist which added to that continuing social and economic

shifts making it harder for parents to provide for their children and leaving little time for talking and listening this morning meant is that it catered to children who have fallen victim to adult biases alcoholism drug abuse prostitution and i want to go with can drive a child to take his or her own life but in the center of this over only wicket bigger stones one that since policy frightening almost commonplace it represents what experts say is the main reason why russia is leading europe and the number of teen suicides about ice and difference seeing no evil hearing now cries out of work or artsy. just after twenty past the hour now here in the russian capital they have explored the waters of the arctic and plunge down to look at the titanic but now for the first time a russian deep sea subs plumbed the depths of switzerland's lake geneva the sub's cutting edge technology will be used to collect data on the geology physics or the

russia and its c.i.s. neighbors have come to the rescue with a three billion dollar loan the head of the crisis fund explains who is contributing what. the fund now has eight under how billion dollars slightly more than eight about how billion dollars six countries in questions are remaining in kazakhstan kyrgyzstan russia and the g q stop russia sport in seven point five billion dollars has built in one billion dollars other countries have also contributed but smaller amounts every law is the key to the contributors to the funds in the proportion and which is the contributor to the front which means that if you look at the total structure of the fund russia has provided the bold eighty percent of the total and this means that the russian contribution will be both peterson what is important to explain is that we actually do not have these amount of money is the way the fund works is countries have made the initial

contribution of ten percent cash so ten percent of eight point five eight hundred fifty million dollars for this initial contribution the first appear regions of the fund the first loans which the farm is giving to its member countries have been funded including a part of the bill that will slow once we use this initial contribution we go to the member countries requesting that they provide more cash within this limits of eight point five billion dollars. just for the markets now crude has two days of also is held by a lower dollar and a stronger than expected retail sale stating in the west however the gains are limited by reports china is taking further steps to cover glacier which could slow its economy sucks the us open half following better than expected report on retail sales and after trying to stay to help drive rallies across europe and asia european equity markets are high as investors took a positive view of the commentators in china as well so it is heavyweights are
