in case the government think this isn't the first time this has happened last year thirteen people were arrested and accused of being on russia's payroll earlier this week nine of them received sentences of up to fourteen years in prison for the georgian government this is a matter of national security but others in georgia are very critical of what they see as particular ruthless political calculation you are entirely russian it means that you were always there if you are always there and you are at the moment and if you want to go quickly there is no democracy and human rights because it really isn't a russian he's never produced or he's criticised worry slightly by western and you're going. to police he must know deal with the most serious about a geisha spine it has a neighbor with whom its relations are rock bottom and it has some men in jail but many are questioning whether this is really about justice or about politics from

bottom to. egypt's prime minister has ordered the suspension of all police accused of brutality during revolution that toppled president mubarak on friday thousands of egyptians turned out for the biggest rally in months and that over the slow pace of prosecuting officials they also accuse the interim leadership of dragging its feet on promised reforms teasing sonali wait to see if legacy is still a knife. egypt's uprising might have ousted president mubarak but to them he's far from gone thousands of people out here on top here they all see different visions of egypt but they join together because the people we've spoken to feel like their revolution has been stolen we go through the book so the mubarak's the ship has a life and when the taste of freedom was short lived the military is in full power mass media is being choked and oppression still rampant forced them to feel i

think they werent catching activists as much as they are doing now and take them to a prison i guess now they're being treated violent they want to kill that evolution they still live in the first place he's known simply as uncle horst i'm here in egypt a social network or with a twitter army of some thirty thousand followers the military thought it was all civilians have to stop immediately immediately this is you know one of the major demands we're putting forward one of many demands including transparent trials for the fallen regime and the purging of corrupt officials they say their freedom was short lived and they got rid of mubarak you know their high ranking officials but now egypt is going the same way it was before january surprise that little officials little mubarak the media remarks rather what they're calling them are running the country people like myself have been arguing for taking the high you to

the factories they can hire you to the universities seeking to have you to the wood places meaning that in every single word police we have an egypt that is amenable now where it was never interested in politics in till january she was shot with twenty three pellets by riot police twenty of which are still in her like the pain is finally gone but her perseverance is not the barrier of fear is gone. and she will keep. to new to fight to the end i want every every egyptian citizen to be treated as a human being every protester has their own vision of the egypt they're fighting for some want to constitution then free elections others think the new law should follow the vote but one thing that brings them all together is that this egypt is not the end. and he said no way are cheap. to the head few this

thrown out of court protesting john rocker luggage from the hague tribunal mr constance humanity. cases one sided. and the farm edition of the british tabloid news of the world hits the streets wake up phone hacking allegations and arrests. this week are rebels in libya made significant advances battling government forces they say progress on their way to tripoli has been slowed by a lack of support from nato while germany has agreed to supply munitions for the advances continuing it strikes. did not originally back the operation and some suggest that coalition pressure has caused shift in position to decipher whether germany joining the nato bombing operations turn out. more bombs wanted just over one hundred days of airstrikes and with just over two

thousand bombs dropped by nato allies on libya the mission has run into an unexpected problem a lack of shells to drop where there is demand there is supply and this case germany has agreed to provide the much needed ammunition previously berlin has abstained from voting in favor of the un security council resolution on libya a move that surprised some and others but it may now be backing out of its decision the germans might not want to participate but all. they have decided that position does not preclude them actually supplying weapons in this case or systems some believe germany is under pressure from other nato members particularly the united states france and the u.k. to take a more active part in the libyan campaign at first our you know ministries toward the foreign affairs minister don't go into libya it's a very bad conflict it was started by the cia and it's

a dirty business don't go there so this is why you voted with russia and china now the backlash from washington is so tough that obviously we are under pressure to do something to make up for this decision aside from peer pressure germany may be alerted by the possible financial benefits of making its weapons available for natives use in libya probably germany will get paid for delivering these arms to other countries but that is normal practice between can't even between nato countries. out of the twenty eight nato members only eight are actively participating in libya with civilian deaths to which nato recently admitted to a shortage of weapons and the ever relentless more market duffy is still at the helm the coalition may be facing just the beginning of its problems. berlin is in a tough spot on the one hand it has disappointed nato by refusing to support the mission only being march on the other by agreeing to supply bombs it may now lose

friends in other high places and whatever the real reasons for its contradictory policy may be germany could find that by trying to please everyone it may end up pleasing no one if you know goes corti. for months on the nato as per track of intervention in libya has yet to yield its desired result and accusations of violating un mandate persisting political runs off but a humanitarian mission was never high on the coalition's list of goals in the region. thirteen thousand made away or missions over a country of six and a half million people including what nato itself acknowledges is five thousand combat missions it's not a war. you know this is not simply a question of the are protecting libyan civilians from over the government violence and so forth this is a concerted long term military action nato it's the world's only military or it's

one that is in charge of the two major wars in the world right now those in afghanistan and libya i think you know we did this for you with you know minor points of contention but i think we should not be confused about what the nature of the merger monday through the organization. russia has condemned to nato for its continuing military action in libya foreign minister sergei lavrov said the bombing the country to force colonel gadhafi to step down is a cynical political game with too many civilian lives at stake. nato is bombing libya longer that it was bombing yugoslavia several years ago and there is no end in sight it's obvious that politics is a cynical matter we hear from the western capitals that the bombing should go on until gadhafi backs off but the human cost of these political statements is very high the slogan the police can use to be the next our focus for terrorists the tebbit entire region as r.t. speaks to a syrian politician for his views on the best way out of his country's crisis.

britain's best selling newspaper the news of the world is saying it's fun farewell to its readers of the hundred sixty eight years the paper was axed by its media mogul and one in the phone hacking scandal public. outrage flared this week has claims emerged that journalists intercepted phone calls from murder victims and dead soldiers' families. mr reese says rupert murdoch's press has now lost its longstanding immunity and britain's prince who beat i think something changed this week you know for decades british prime ministers have been on their knees to the to the murdoch press because they knew that when the sun which is his main daily newspaper here in britain when the sun supported a british politician running for prime ministership you know they won it and then you find on the next day you find that prime minister reading the sun looking like an idiot saying well the sun got me elected i mean so you've got this demeaning of british democracy is that missing of democracy really which the murdoch press was

at the heart of but i think and there was a for a silence as well because important people needed the murdoch press and they couldn't be there they couldn't attack it because of that and i think a line was crossed rupert murdoch has a very finely tuned business brain he has a lot of things going on now one of them is to purchase the largest satellite network in britain called b. sky b. and that decision is about to be approved by the government that was in jeopardy i think he felt that as a businessman he had to sacrifice the news of the world because it in terms of the whole news international it's a tiny part of all that the political cast have been sucking up to rupert murdoch for so many years including prime minister david cameron he now has to stand back and say no i can't do it anymore it's gone too bad. the former bosnian serb general racan luggage is lost to get a new legal counsel to represent him at the hague war crimes tribunal within days

his hearing this week was disrupted and that it was escorted out of the courtroom for shouting and interrupting the judge and refusing to enter a plea instead the judge was forced to enter a not guilty plea on his own but until now that she's accused of ordering the mass killing of thousands of bosnian muslims in the balkans war but only on a verse or of the tribune it's a massacre the serbs feel this side of the story isn't being taken into account as you know server reports. liquid little town of slippery meats in bosnia and herzegovina who looks it daily you houses are being built people go about their business and in the center of the town a mosque and a church sit side by side but disappearing unity is an illusion sixty years ago the entire region was torn apart by ethnic clashes during the yugoslav war and several became infamous when the united nations stated eight thousand muslim men and boys were massacred by bosnian serb forces today

a memorial for the deceased sits in the grounds of a former un military base the sort of thing it's a memorial ground as well maintained and frequently visited by locals journalists and tourists who get boston from the bosnian capital of. what the tourist aren't shown are the thousands of serbian graves that lined cemeteries all around us that have been it's a region. thousands of people were killed during the balkan wars of the one nine hundred ninety s. but cemeteries like these with entire families of murdered serb civilians only get visited by the very few remaining survivors but only comes here all the time his entire family lives here he says a bosnian muslim general is responsible so you know i was only nine years old when this had already struck away everything i had and why have you first to kill my mother then my father and brother i was wounded and taken captive they held me for fifty six days and only god knows how or why i survived. but even though but on

a survive his loss just like that of thousands of people here is being ignored. each was at the hague tribunal and i was supposed to be a witness in his trial but in the end me and about thirty other witnesses were simply cast aside they didn't call us didn't ask what happened to our families and the tribunal only gave him two years in prison. the balkan war so heinous atrocities visited an all sides and perpetrated by all players but the version most often propagated by western media is rather one sided in blaming the serbs the purpose of that is to set the stage and create a rationale for sore called humanitarian interventions which indeed occurred in considerable number in the mouth of serpent so that so-called precedent can be traced through the years and into today's headlines bosnia iraq

afghanistan and most recently libya have all played unwilling hosts to nato troops and u.s. imposed no fly zones it is very important in the creation of the. scenario to make sure that in the minds of most people. was a genocide which was preventable but for whatever reasons the so-called international community didn't do anything about it. simmered say the journey from sitting meets it to benghazi via baghdad and kabul could now be traced as a kind of nato road map but as with any road paved with good intentions there is only one possible destination castros are about r t bosnia and herzegovina. well there are more of our stories online at r.t. dot com let's see what else is that right now there are widespread deaths and
