a prosecutor. and prosecutors like criminals. see no difference. if somebody came in as. the person in germany netherlands this criminals. really was murdered in the second world war by the dutch sis he confronted for those to be if he had any remorse for who responded with sneers and more koori that was four years ago they were safe was no housebound and close to death it's a race against time for justice now you say well he's a king. and people say sometimes say well why didn't you are now one you know his for. the sake of this you had to feel sorry for these these dudes so if you go to munich you're. just ignorant you know approachable if we don't put in

the g.o.p. for you guys it will always hang as a dark cloud of war you know why didn't you put your for real cruel and that since where he loved germany convicted ukrainian american knew of nazi war crimes or much weaker evidence germany has one rule for its people says cause pins and another for foreigners here about younger but he's from russia and you know they don't mind kicking him around as well this isn't germans or even for. a german national therefore. this is where the mount of the nazi executioner lives german media is banned from revealing his address but we know he's in the last few years a message for the families of his victims. you have

a message for. the. final push to put it behind. me. to drool. sure. plenty more stories coming your way this hour here's a taste of war for heads are to states in the glamour and excitement among the stars to bring you the name of the lucky winner carry here in the main one of the most international film festival. one a police officer has been killed and two others wounded in a gunfight with militants in russia's republic of chechnya security forces came into contact with the group on saturday morning before exchanging fire and there's aspects refuse to surrender officials they are up to a dozen armed militants escapes are fought to have fled into nearby dense forest the area has been sealed off with additional security troops closing in on the

assailants russia's caucuses is seeing a spike in violence activity with a number of terror attacks not by a third in the last few months special operations by government forces have seen over two hundred militants killed this year. thousands of libyans have taken to the streets to voice their support for colonel gadhafi is to fires of nato bombings of tripoli in a recorded message gets out the address but was the largest demonstration in libya since the alliance began its campaign launch attacks on europe in revenge in nato is that strikes but it comes after france confirmed it had supplied rebels with weapons criticized the move ahead out of the way the u.n. resolution on libya has been interpreted as a vested jervas what the tarpley use in the libyan capital is russia needs to take countermeasures to outweigh the illegal actions of coalition forces it's great to operate. asian is already flagrantly illegal because of the way they're they're

they're violating let me put it this way the resolution violates the charter and nato is violating the resolution they've got a sea blockade growing here nato air power is used to protect armed gangs packed full of al qaeda and other terrorists and it's used to attack civilians i've seen homes here where four or five little children essentially preschool kids were killed in the middle of the night by bombs watched by aircraft from forty thousand feet that is a very cowardly way to wage war so we're in the midst now of. the certainly countries like russia would be very well advised to do something urgently to try to restore the rule of international law and that would mean. more energetic measures against what the united states britain and france are doing. invest in genesis time p. talking it to off their check pretty well on the way or an aussie some ladies you wouldn't want to mess with. as it turned out arm wrestling is

not just for the guys here in russia's north caucuses more and more women are getting a new t.v. ad and we managed to wrestle the secrets of some of this course superwomen. limpin nasa has been sworn in as the new u.s. defense secretary replacing robert gates who helped pave for years what your in his time is spent in chief gates struggle to bring about dick cheney and iraq and afghanistan but the contributions that the retired defense secretary actually help much of the taliban in the first place. for our generation of the cold warriors on the both sides in the united states and russian federation it is robert gates the hour would be galling secretary of defense who personalizes recalled war had its peak roderick gates was anything but controversial and he has garnered full respect

all across the board during his valedictory exit tour from again a stand all across europe and back united states robert gates displayed don't believe all specter of sincerity and candor providing he's honest and unvarnished assessment of the united states strategic overreach all across the globe somehow i have a hunch in his upcoming memoirs robert gates will explain his run unfinished dream that is to finish the job keep initiated in his previous brassy as the cia chief when he opened up a pound or a box of extremism in pakistan and in afghanistan only to be called back to duty almost thirty years later to eradicate big deal which is so carefully rare it improved in his previous capacity as the cia chief

authors the media gives everyone a chance to pay their part in any thore it's been a communication revolution encouraging not uprising in some countries i'm cause incomes of the in others with the blood that the said they'd rather than a new york hit the sidewalks are the people that the things rattle. in today's social media driven world you can post whatever hate speech doctored photos or other nonsense you want with virtually no consequences how do you feel about that defining our times this week let's talk about that i was as still king a guy on facebook one some by mistake instead of rising his name into the sea shepherd as my status was awkward and you got me these things very quickly adding everybody to really say did you learn your lesson yeah did you people just do thing on young girls young kids you know home addresses and everything like that i got

a nice. open the president. people see what you show them not what you actually are in my experience and if you put something on the internet people will watch and think that that's at your life you know when when people could be seen at home doing nothing for a whole weekend they might just make things up just to make themselves more interesting a lot of people tend toward being snotty or rude and they've been taught through television and other media that that that's the new cool yet there's a shift in our culture going on but that will that will change as people start to understand that they end result of that is isolate you isolate yourself when you do that kind of stuff we need to be center of attention as the world just become a giant high school yeah i would say yes we are all existing science we owe a high school we all hated it so why do we want to live it every day that's a good question that's a good question and it's almost even in a more middle school that sort of mean girl kind of thing and i think even adults

get into the bullying which is kind of sad but do you think that as we grow as a society people will get smarter about what to post or will it just get worse then what i think people always be people you're going to have people that are smart you can have people who don't knots and i think it always be fruitcakes that put things on the that is just unhelpful and home. regardless of how you feel about the pitfalls of social media the bottom line is that it's probably going to get a lot worse before it gets better if it every day. rushes cool because this region is known for its al standing wrestlers but now the local women a hoss on the hills pumping iron in the gym and testing their limits to the max and the art of arm wrestling some of these ladies are the kind of force be reckoned with but as we did a quarter of a finds out there determined to become international stars. there is little clue as

to why there's quite a corner of russia in the north caucasus hide such a powerful secret because it is here that we find perhaps some of the strongest women in the country but they're hoping their arm wrestling talents will one day be shared with the world in the olympic arena. i'll be no cell of a big and wrestling and nine hundred ninety four but now she's clearly a super woman with town world and fourteen year old gold medals born in a small village in the mountains she says that she has achieved everything she wished for and now it's time for a younger generation to follow in her winning footsteps i mean as the biggest concern though is that the sport doesn't get the recognition she feels it deserves sometimes we simply don't have money to go to the championships after training so hard young girls are losing the stimulus to continue when they hear that there is no chance for them to go unless they collect the money themselves and one thing

that might change that would be if the sport was made part of their limpid games bringing one tangent and financing competitive organize maja's began in california in nineteen thirty two and some games real popularity arm wrestling as one of the most peaceful converts of the word that actually doesn't require any special equipment and people of all ages have a real chance of winning if i did something quite so. it's. what has the chance of winning right now i'm going to check it for myself i. know it's certain to be. standing out worse of the jam i've been as a trainee all reason she doesn't know if she'll ever have enough money to go to the championships but she never loses hope. we beat is an incorrect comparison that sport is like a swan for me once you get into there is simply no turning back i try to start but

i can't live without it and they will continue hoping that one the will will be recognised by the public. it seems like kook asian women are falling hard on the successful heels of their man continued many of the world's models in almost all types of wrestling and with girls' hair simming lead to determined to break the stereotypes we could soon see more and more high heels making their way into live wrestling and arenas. i didn't push no r.c. did we probably go to north this. time now circles of other world news in brief this hour on the syrian president to hear fishel after friday's anti regime demonstrations believed to have been the biggest get rich on our side signed a decree removing the governor of the central city of hama from office tens of thousands took to the streets nationwide rejecting ourselves promises of reform and demanding an end to his all for tarion rule vis a the government crackdown which began in the marches claimed almost fifteen

hundred lives. but these thirteen members of the family died when a roadside bomb struck their minibus in southern afghanistan the group including two children were thought to be afghan refugees returning from pakistan through the volatile border area roadside bombs planted by taliban militants are commonly used in the country elsewhere in afghanistan or local council member was killed by two government opened fire from a motorbike. talks of stassi between bahrain's sunni led government and the sheer opposition following months of anti-government protests that claimed over thirty lives the shia community in the bahrain. claims that longstanding discrimination against the majority group thousands of people participated in nationwide demonstrations demanding for political representation. now despite a great fight in the google the final russian tennis star maria sharapova may not

have won the cup this year but she is still an inspiration for an entire generation of young tennis is the twenty four year old player's greatest passion jury trials worldwide attention for striking looks as much as sporting prowess artist tom barton's been looking into the secrets of sharapova success. that. was. the russians call it big tennis to distinguish it from ping pong much to the amusement of foreigners but now russia's racket wielding darling has made it to the biggest tennis tournament of the move since her win at wimbledon in two thousand and four and a real mania has turned sharapova into a star off the court as well. beaches and catwalks she's joined the hall of fame with jaw dropping russian tennis woman but she only wants to talk about the tends. to just take it one point at a time and really focus and. this kind of got in my zone so we went down to one

of moscow's toughest young tennis tournaments the club here claims to be the home of tomorrow's players so what can these young russians think of their compatriots example. i think she's very positive and not everyone can have such patients patience is very important in tennis because if i've always liked her even when i was very young i started playing because i wanted to be like her and now people are telling me i'm playing like her god no i think i find a very strong inspiration from her i really like the way she plays she has very good technique she always fights until the end and never gives up one thing nobody can ignore about sharapova. that brute or scream or whatever it is we decided to send some of russia's pictures printing talent become a complete. you

can be one of the stars this club has turned out his catarina pappu over she was ranked eight here in world under eighteen ranking. but she forged her career in russia actually wrote of has been in america since she was seven doesn't lessen her inspirational appeal. to russia she is ready for healthy you need. to keep working hard and i might have to put in a few more rows one suv. ok so i probably couldn't even beat these kids for the game of tennis but that's because they're out here every day practicing driven on by heroes like maria sharapova well maybe because they haven't mastered the all important. best

squealing away for r.c. and most now the. film before him muscles heading for a sea to be dramatic climax the winner of the best film has charles pitt in now that's cost lives for all of the hands out a ceremony for a second of all the glitz and glamour of peace is a big challenge in de paris in suspense it was the winner. yes this year's winner of the coveted golden george award is the movie the waves directed by alberto why is a spanish movie the second and you're in a row that a spanish language movie has won the top prize here at the moscow international film festival last year it was the turn of. brothers this year though it's gone to the waves a movie set in the case against the backdrop of the spanish civil war and it's not the only prize that movies picks up carlos are various is also taken in the best actor prize at this year's festival so two awards going to the spanish movie the
