we had to be him. calling for peace and negotiation for months and no one wants to listen to us and now we have to pay a very heavy price of. casualties civilian casualties and also military casualties i think the time has come for the world to understand that this conflict has to come to an end immediately which is very unlikely to happen any time soon they needed a ground in the symmetry still crash while native has already claimed the operation to protect civilians must go on. party. investigative journalists to michelle khan who was in libya just a few days ago believes the actions of an alliance are only motivated by money they are skilled at mall civilians that the losses from the initials problems there feels more civilians the little bombings so the real id is not protect civilians

the rio de is to achieve the economical strategical interest off there of the west us in europe i mean the oil i mean the financial reserves of libya a reminder that the u.s. is a bankrupt country and also all preventing that caffie would be a sort of paternal to the i.m.f. some buying for african development the old idea is to make the public international opinion accept the idea that nato is the cup of the world know that that nato has the right to make was where they want to revisit the people in hospitals and we saw victims and indeed the civilian population is attacked that must be very clear it has nothing to do with immunity or and war. with nato bombs falling on the people it aims to protect and lead the campaign is losing its initial supporters italy is now pressing for an immediate hold to the airstrikes
2:06 am
artie's reading the reports of whether nato has tracked itself in a conflict you can no longer escape. civilian deaths and leave your own class making news on western news networks they say has acknowledged that a number of civilians may have been killed in an air strike last night says it regrets the loss of innocent lives and admits the weapons malfunction they have caused civilian deaths and they don't have knowledge as well of its of course last night in tripoli and maybe to blame for civilian casualties the operation has been going on for three months and according to libyan officials hundreds of civilians how really been killed by nato bombs so why has it taken so long for the major t.v. networks and newspapers to report on the carnage because the big problem with our media our mass media nowadays is not that they're left wing right wing it's just that they go along with whomever is in power and the whole idea of critical
2:07 am
reporting is gone and it's not just media noticing that something is going wrong with the involvement in libya it's only a nato member has already lost faith in the operation in fact wrong has called for an end to all military activity and to allow aides in france and britain have however dismissed the calls for the station in need to is relentless pounding of libya and they do is acting under a u.n. resolution to protect civilians trapped many believe the alliance's main aim has always been to oust colonel gadhafi some european politicians from countries back in the campaign say that's not the job for nato but people to decide the british public don't really understand why we've been taken into these wars and yes indeed while we bomb them now colonel gadhafi is a murderous vicious dictator and the world in libya will be better off without him but it is it our business to go. out of office if the libyans want to have

a revolution and get rid of him then good luck to them are others believe the longer the attacks in libya continue the more difficulties for nato and its politike. bakker's the only exit the train of thought was to say we will leave when it is good if you will leave you for the feet. or if going there for the fee to pull his own ok for me today we'll look into two exhibits but if not the point is they will resume achieving nothing we're trying to be full and specially for london footballers it would be for a degree does us really need his admission of killing civilians in recent days may have made the headlines back home but expressions of regret have not been felt on the ground in libya unlike the western bombs and missiles which continue to fall killing those the alliance says it's there to protect in brussels in goes r t. and here's

has actually stepped up air strikes including ground strikes in afghanistan it's got to be part of this twenty first century intelligent war strategy you know when you have no troops on the ground no. so if your soldiers to justify so it becomes possible to wage a war without having to face all these accountability issues so many afghans are worried that less troops doesn't necessarily mean less moms on their homes it's a common thing in the u.s. media for example when they talk about the war losses they just need a loss it's very rarely do they mention the number of afghan civilians killed and that number is so many times higher experts say apart from civilians killed another thing that contributes to growing insurgency in afghanistan is the fact that we deal with the drug issue since the invasion in two thousand and one drug production there has increased enormously and it's known that some of that vast drug trade income goes to terrorists so many see america's war on terror as a go below edge sword when it's fighting and provoking terror at the same time that
