1:02 pm
in connection with both the bombing and the shooting and there are reports easily into a far right movement a second man was seized by special forces in the area where victims relatives have gathered but it's still not clear if he's an accomplice in the double atrocity well archy's daniel bushell is following developments for us. the number of casualties estimated has skyrocketed or witnesses to me initially said it was around ten since then the numbers have gone up dramatically and dressed in police uniform apparently entered the labor party youth rally and began shooting indiscriminately dozens have been killed and there have been horrific stories of people swimming for their lives hiding in the bush's. people were wondering what was happening was it some bellew's exploding or somebody pointed joke and then everyone started to understand people actually had been shot it was dressed as a policeman and he came across like he was trying to help us he said come here he
1:03 pm
had a rifle and was using to shoot at us it was total chaos i saw people being shot. there he shot indiscriminately sheltering i'll kill everyone everyone must die and children were running jumping into the sea two were to escape hiding behind rocks hiding behind trees explosives have been found on the island just before the attack at the youth rally there was a blast here in the center of those low which blew out windows in the city center. right now i'm thinking about the consul my head and of course it's horrible nice things happened you don't really know what's going on but you can assume there's been a bomb because of the serious effect. of being linked with the same thought to be a right wing extremist with anti muslim views in on the seventeenth of july he still took posted a twitter feed where he said that one person with a belief is equal to the force of a hundred thousand who have only interests so he thought of posted radical tweets
1:04 pm
leading up to this attack he's now been charged with both the bombing in the city center here in oslo and the youth come just outside he was a fundamentalist he's a fundamentalist christian and he says multiculturalism is always failed us in his blog which has been found i call. himself a nationalist he's also registered a gun club and around two years ago opened the farm called geo farm which gave him access to industrial fertilizer which is often used by terrorists for warmings like this one so it seems that it's an idea that he's been planning for a long time initially a grouping called helpers of the global jihad came out and said that they took responsibility for the mean but then they retracted that of course norway is is participating in the libyan and afghanistan war efforts as part of nato and just last winter there were dozens of islamic militants arista throughout western europe
1:05 pm
in connection with with planned bombings police has told people to stay out of the city center to avoid using mobile phones the exits to the borders of norway which shots immediately after the blast and roads leading into and trains leading into the capital rules so halted now we've we've heard that soldiers are on the streets with machine guns police also and it's being called the worst attack since world war two the worst shooting spree in history that our prime minister said more democracy and openness is the answer to the violence but hello lou as for the interviews are considered of international affairs believes it's the country's policies or multiculturalism that troubled his own. behind an increasingly. intense and heated the bait about immigration. both immigration is doing to no beach culture no to culturalism is really not the way to go forward to
1:06 pm
marginalize the region so feel their voices are not being heard in the political establishment. and the reaching people are never being consulted democratically about whether a bump immigration on the notes and not the political establishment is a sort of of the elite that lives in areas which are to put it out the old white and out it's lower close to reach and so who feel that the immigrants are sort of getting into the territories removing them forwarded from the drug smuggling their salaries etc and there are no veiled overall playing the democratic rules i guess. so far seems to be the motivation of this person as well. now in light of the attacks norway has reimposed the shank of border controls well denmark did the same over two weeks ago a move strongly criticized by other e.u. members aleksandr something from the moscow state and medicare university says there are signs of a united europe is falling apart. european project is collapsing slowly collapsing
1:07 pm
you know there are lots of margaret's i mean. the north africa and some countries how to make cancer raise folders they have to support that their research is it has control over immigration control and that's. only tells us that the european political way it's the you know kind of lights how it's the there were jammed up and it should be shared by the people living the people how to do you ready to actually lose people they have to say no to this coming to the country. the governments of all those countries how to put it to either a referendum or actually talk to the people rather than just saying we are going to bend this a plan that every stakeholder has to have a say in it not just the citizens of the country not just the migrants because you see there is a contradiction where you can spring this for us and seize the army's call it was
1:08 pm
supposedly to the information shared by the media no wait i know the same time there's an islamized again ization that. they've taken responsibilities on the whole of the blast in the way that it's so you see it as a contradiction if they miss what you say and here's why mr calls and at the same five is why mr good is asian fakers fall today with the need for varies something deeply wrong with the communication. of the norwegian tax have sent shock waves around the world and sparked passionate debate on what's behind it all on our website r.t. dot com we're asking what's the cornerstone of the interview should tragedy and so far the majority of you think a share fanaticism is to blame and fewer people thirty five percent say the tension stemmed from multiculturalism twenty percent say the reason is that global terrorism which penetrates everywhere and that minority says it's down to the failure of security forces or what's your view on that you can log on to r.t.
1:09 pm
dot com and have your say. now normally security forces may be trained to thwart terror attacks but they completely fail to predict or prevent this massacre that's the view of danish m.e.p. abortive messerschmitt says nobody is safe than individual maniac decides to go on a shooting spree many scandinavians were of the belief that we are police or intelligence service really had the facilities and the measures in order to prevent this from happening we have in numerous cases we have prevented attacks from terrorist groups islamist groups or iran of course it's a much more difficult to prohibit individual lunatics from doing it with a very small piece of me or as we have seen there yesterday but there's of course once again the question is whether the police with a very intelligent service has the facilities and measures that are adequate to the situation that we're living in of today. all the reminder of our top story for you
1:10 pm
the latest we have is that at least eighty five people are now confirmed dead after a shocking shooting spree at a region a youth camp and that of talking shortly after a powerful blast in downtown also which claimed at least seven lives a thirty two year old movie agent man is being held in connection with both events and it's reported that he belongs to a far right movement a second that was detained by special forces around an area where the victims' relatives had gathered but it's not clear if he is a suspected second gunman. well our own correspondent daniel bushell is there at the heart of glass rick and all slow bringing us the very latest as it happens and his firsthand experience is also on our twitter feed you can check out twitter in one of his latest tweets he says he witnessed demonstrations of extraordinary bravery wonder the victims of the also blast returned to ground zero to look for people still trapped inside despite the risk of another com.

1:12 pm
financial stability fund the sort of nascent european monetary fund i think they wouldn't really be sufficient in the aims if it was a sort of rattle between the bond markets and the italian government so without wanting to paint nightmare scenario i don't think we're out of the woods yet. another debt crisis brews across the atlantic as a washington struggles to the side on how to avoid defaulting on its debt in a few minutes our very own new york resident laurie harford has asked people in the big apple whether they're ready to pay more tax to save their economy. a little bit how much is a little but. few percentage points more and that that that's about it i believe everybody even if it's a dollar fifty everybody should be in the shared sacrifice if you have too much
1:13 pm
texas you have. like in the states that have better government they spend all their money on crazy wars in iraq and a. so i would say first of the wars and there you don't need a tax increase. recovery efforts are continuing on russia's volga river following the country's worst disaster struck at a pleasure cruiser the bulgaria is being a shallow waters that's before being lifted on to dry land a water has to be pumped out of the socket. hell to make a record light enough to with experts are eager to examine the ship to determine exactly why the bulgaria sank two weeks ago one hundred fourteen people are confirmed dead after the tragedy with eight still listed as missing the boat's owner is under investigation added two people have already been charged with violating its safety regulations. and cautious optimism has welcomed the

1:17 pm
a technical basis yes they nato intervention and indiscriminate bombing and libya could be both the united states and nato operation but technicalities aside it is not just a two and a half wars for the united states in reality if not on the ground at least in the air over alleviate the bombing is one hundred percent nato operation the timing of nato operation against libya demonstrated not only of the lack of trust between the united states and pakistan and have been leadership it is also indicative of a huge credibility gap we could be in genuine united states of america and its european nato partners. oh you can always follow you get a clue shoves video blog and of course many others all on our website our dot com
1:18 pm
and among the stories you'll find there today dr jennifer tucker first convicted of spying for russia are released where their colleagues convinced their confessions were called works and find out why the local opposition believes the case had nothing to do with justice at the very start. and foreign skeptics said it was ridiculous but a russian military innovation has bounced back and michael's become a significant asset expert sing the praises and benefits of the so-called robber army at r.t. dot com. every indian media is reporting that one of the country's nuclear scientists has been a shot dead in the capital tehran thirty five year old are you sure it was targeted outside his home by a gun than on
1:19 pm
a motorbike and he's the third nuclear physicist to be killed in iran in the last two years let's discuss this with qian i want tare a political commentator live in terror on for us mr mccarthy thanks very much for being on the program and how involved was the scientists there usually in iran's nuclear program he was involved the term educational level in iran's nuclear program. but agenda generally iranian universities pool their resources it's one great program so the death of his involvement is educational level and iran now is a blaming israel's mossad for last year's killing will they say the same now given the involvement you say is just academic so will they say the same and do you agree . well the the you know iran has just carried out an operation against the as zionist backed. militia group in kurdistan pay jack which is really
1:20 pm
really very badly. wrong has just taken over three of their bases so it was to be expected. but whether it's going to in any way impede the running nuclear program i don't believe that that is the case because knowledge is something you can't kill and bin this is something that the enemies of iran will have to learn by trial. you know you have a massive pool of very talented scientists who will be able to carry on in all fields aerospace and the nuclear scientists agriculture. anything you name it ok well an intelligence report claimed this week that president mahmoud ahmadinejad wants to forge ahead openly with developing nuclear weapons what's your view on that. idea at the last bit of type question right there report that the president not what i'm going to he wants to continue go ahead
1:21 pm
openly with developing nuclear weapons what do you think. well you know the the i has not come up with a single speck of evidence that iran has deviated from. its peaceful nuclear activities it is a nuclear energy program given the appetite of the east and the west for energy resources of iran iran's energy resources have been in we have to look to the future are we going to be dependent for our fuel rods on the west will be east i'll be going to chance it or not and we've decided not to do so. but. there is a point out like a raise and that is the fact that. mr president mahmoud ahmadinejad he had more that the iranian intelligence minister was not perhaps. the right
1:22 pm
man for the job. a few months ago but his decision was overturned by the leader and i think that perhaps the attack today goes some way in proving this. point about mr hey dad was like he ok we're just going back to the latest a killing of a scientist now whoever is behind the murder surely they can't hope to stop iran's entire nuclear program just by killing scientists one by one. well you know as i said iran has managed since the victory of these lawmakers evolution to create a huge pool of scientists in all fields agriculture. you know in terms of mechanics in terms of. science space science aerospace and nuclear technology and this was perhaps just another shot across the bow for
1:23 pm
iran to watch its that. and to refrain from whatever it is that everybody else in the west happens to think that iran is up to but i repeat this i would as a. journalist who is deeply opposed to nuclear weapons. if a comes up with one iota of evidence that iran is pursuing a nuclear weapons program i'll be the first in line to convert it to to can then it but i'm afraid i have not come up with this i'm not prepared from the united states so far has been a lot of cry frankly questionable evidence about iran's nuclear energy program i think just very briefly how big is the level of public support in iran for a nuclear program. it is very deep if take you back to iran's
1:24 pm
oil nationalization program which was back in one thousand fifty three iranians do feel that with the sheer sale of the resources of the fossil fuel resources of iran we only have a few decades left worth of income but worse than that we only have a short time left to come up with renewable energy alternatives now work is being carried out on all fields indeed. all green energy is in iran and a large amount of our budget has been allocated to this but nuclear energy is part of renewable energies and we have to also put in the work to make sure that in the future we are not dependent on the western all the eastern powers all right thank you very much for your insight there clearly military political commentator talking to us live from tehran. the u.s.
1:25 pm
has moved a step closer to defaulting on its debts the latest round of talks to raise the country's debt ceiling collapsed when a republican opposition leader stormed out of negotiations with president obama the government has to allow more borrowing on top of its existing limits of fourteen point three trillion dollars but the opposing parties can't agree on how to achieve that democrats propose higher taxes on the wealthy while republicans want spending cuts so if a decision is not made by august second the u.s. will be unable to pay its bills and have to default the effects are already being felt as the u.s. federal aviation authority which oversees several flights in the country begins a partial shutdown archies new york resident lori harford this took to the streets of the big apple to gauge public opinion on more taxation.
1:26 pm
would you be willing to pay more in taxes just paid your government from bankruptcy this week let's talk about that. definitely would. you know you are there is spending. even two other spending on defense. or education. so do you trust your government to spend it correctly i don't trust any of the country a little bit how much is a little back. a few percentage points more and that that that's about it since fifty percent of the american public does not pay a nickel i would have a problem i believe everybody even if it's a dollar fifty everybody should be in the shared sacrifice you know the parents or how much work if you know if i'm working hard and i mean you my good my good share you know why they want to be good so you can walk away from me when people you know don't. you know. spend
1:27 pm
a lot more money in taxes so that more people have my service that cheap you have to pay for people who aren't working as hard as you go. to get a way that well yeah i think everybody should have it ok so i think it's ok because you pay too much that says you know you to get energy from people who want to work so if you ask who wants to it says you have a better government like in the states you have a better government to spend all the money and raise your wars in iraq and. so i would say first focus the war and there you don't need to tax increase to matter how you feel about taxes the bottom line is you're probably always going to have to pay them but it's up to your government to use those funds well. i'll be back with the headlines shortly to sing with us here on r.t. .
