ship is to 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 and worse then 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 by the way they want to work with this still that in the first place he's known simply as uncle hostile 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 got rid of mubarak you know their high ranking officials but now egypt we were the same way it was before january sort of well that little official little mubarak so many new marks out

there is what their hiring them are running the country people like myself have been arguing for taking the high due to the factories they can hire you to the universities the king to have to the workplaces meaning that in every single word police we have an egypt that is amenable now when 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 continue to fight till 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 and then free elections others think the new laws 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. and plenty more stories are coming your way this hour he will not see him play date. just for the anniversary of europe's west massacre the nazi era travels to srebrenica where people are still in search of justice. but now rebels in libya are battling past government forces on the road to tripoli they're now moving towards the key town of time after a six week long on parts but the compass also remains over one hundred fifty kilometers away the rebels say their progress has been slow to tell lack about munition a nato support and there have been suggestions that the alliance is running low on arms itself and has asked germany for munitions reports now surprise turn after opposing the mission from the outset. 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 in 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 good others but it may now be backing out of a decision the germans may not want to participate but they have decided that the position does not preclude them actually subline weapons in this case or systems some believe germany is under pressure from. other nato members particularly the united states friends in the u.k. to take a more active part in the libyan campaign at first hand 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 nato's use in libya probably germany will get paid for delivering these to other countries but that is normal practice between countries 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 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 even goes corti. russia is holding firm in its condemnation of raters military action in libya the foreign minister says the mission is a political game that's already cost too many lives. but the whole. nature 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 on the political used to be that's when the trouble is the syrian government is opening talks with opposition activists discuss the possible of reforms but some leading rivals and prominent campaign is are not that in the meantime mass

here in britain when the sun supported a british politician running for prime minister you know and then you'd find a mix there you'd find a prime minister reading the sun if you got me elected i mean you've got the. the meaning of democracy is the missing of democracy really which the murdoch press was at the heart of but i think there was a for silence as well because important people needed the murdoch press and they couldn't be 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 the 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 class who've 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 going to bad this week france's former finance minister stepped in to charge cannes shoes and took over as i.m.f. chief christine legarde fast challenges to deal with the car strapped as well as the world's continuing economic crisis but as christine for reports there's still more interest in muckraking than money matters. from violence on the streets of the middle east. to protest in north africa to europe. portugal's credit rating has been deemed junk. and in greece. where unemployment hovers at about sixteen percent and the debt crisis has sparked anger nearly all of this anger stemming from poverty and failed economic policies in the us as well high unemployment sits atop

human resources policies here do you plan any changes in them in light of the controversy over mr strauss kahn the controversy of course with dominique strauss kahn accused of raping a hotel maid in new york that case now starting to crumble after it turned out the maid had credibility problems but back to the i.m.f. or lagarde will take over let me ask you about a couple of issues what worries you the most guarded her best to stay on message we cannot be only driven by the hope to reduce fiscal deficits and organize fiscal consolidation in a big way whether you look at advanced economies or whether you look at emerging markets all income countries the issue of employment. a critical one the one hundred eighty seven nation organization has already lent one hundred sixty billion dollars to cash strapped nations many of which have little hope for

paying it back. so the real questions are manifested here on the streets of some of the nation suffering the most are accepting aid from the i.m.f. has been presented at times as the only option as austerity measures are now being put into place the questions too are in the dollar and how its value may or may not change under her watch her managing the debt crisis around the world will fall at the top of her agenda as the rest of the world watches with hope first ability in an unstable world in washington christine for south r.t. . breaking news this hour two people have died during a cruise on the riba vulgar in russia's republic of tatarstan after their vessel sunk more than a half of the one hundred fifty people on board vessel have been rescued but the fate of the others remain unknown so they imagine his ministry has deployed teams to the scene and effort to save those who are missing and it's not known how the

vessel got into trouble and signed and of course we'll bring you more information when we get it. the former bosnian serb general accused of ordering the. likely to have a new legal team to represent him at the hague. destructed his second hearing berating judges for not allowing him to have his lawyers present but many sets feel the notorious generals trial will not bring forward just as. explains. liquid little town of sibling meets in bosnia and herzegovina looks a delicate 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 this apparent unity is an illusion sixty years ago the entire region was torn apart by ethnic clashes during the yugoslav war and.

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 city but 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 tourists aren't shown are the thousands of serbian graves that line cemeteries all around the state of being 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 for you know i was only nine years old when . everything i had and wife of the first to kill my mother then my father and

brother i was wounded and taken captive and 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 it 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 so-called humanitarian interventions which in the

occurred in considerable number in the mouth of stock in it 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 drawn aside 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.

now it has nothing to shuttle atlantis making its way to the international space station for the very last time marking the end of the u.s. space shuttle era it's caring for american astronauts and several tons of vital supplies within a few hours atlantis is quick to to make its final headcount with the international space station they say last voyage in america's space shuttle history is a painful time for many who devoted their lives to the thirty year programs he's going to check out reports. of. empty shelves of what was once florida's thriving space coast. up to ten thousand people will be out of a job as soon as the last shuttle makes its final voyage back to earth home to many of the kennedy space center workers rochlitz is on the verge of becoming a ghost town without the space program or pretty much nothing i mean this is what

the columbia shuttle first launch into space in one thousand nine hundred. one a total of five shuttles had been used for space missions says that two of them were lost in tragic accidents in nine hundred eighty six and in two thousand and three those lawsuits and the skyrocketing price for each launch gradually led to the cancellation of the program but critics say it's hard to estimate the losses that the end of the shuttle program will bring about both for the space industry and the people involved i think it's a really bad thing for the united states to lose this skilled workforce it's going to be difficult to rebuild for years the shuttle has been the only vehicle that could very crew and a massive load of cargo to space officials say one of the reasons the program was scrapped is that it's safer and cheaper to send cargo and people separately something that russia for example has been doing for many years but whatever the reasons for scrapping the thirty year old program for those who devoted their lives to it is the end of their dream job is kind of sad because i've already seen

a lot of my friends go you know they'll be more people that are probably never see again it also means the end of a once vibrant scientific community that's grown up around the shuttle going to shut down. and i remind our breaking news two people have died during a cruise on the river volga in russia's republic of tatarstan after the vessel sunk more than hoff of the one hundred fifty people on board vessel had been rescued but the fate of the others remains unknown they imagine his ministry has deployed teams to the scene in the effort to save those who are missing and it's not known how the vessel got into trouble and sank so stay with us we will bring you more information as soon as we get it a secret tentatively moves towards opposition towards the deputy foreign minister talks to r.c. in a few minutes to give us his insight into whether
