lost but he says they're lucky to be alone his thoughts go out to the many young victims of the second attack i think about the vision the ship the most keep their eyes i think so they are in some places close to the two atrocities produced many acts of terrorism but the dust settles on the walls worst mass shooting experts say there's also voicing anger that the attacks were allowed to happen in the first place i think of the truth or ignored dozens of hate messages from suspect anders behring breivik you haven't really been prepared for right wing extremism brave expressed fury at the government's open door policy on immigration blogs and twitter feeds. the shootings may reflect growing national opposition to food immigration policies the political establishment or more they are relative the battle of people that live in areas where there are simply no

immigrants so that was a poor people in northern being pushed out of places they used to live live in and it's also their drug stocks are in jeopardy muslims claim this disappointment that the killer turned out to be want they want this guy to be a muslim or how muslim you know. it's for them it's a little bit strange because he's no we didn't so they talk too much about it and about us. it is not good norwegians are said to be fed up with their brand of what's been dubbed radical liberalism it's the country's multicultural policies to turn the government against his own playing the way. far. wider than. ready to admit and there's a polite and respectful attitude towards that kind of. mainstream media but the reality is. that fifty percent off and on against multiculturalism is

people who try to pick up the pieces and bring meaning to this twitter already thing relations between communities some expect the crackdown by police on the e.u. growing for right movements while others fear this will only fuel resentment against europe's muslims victims are beginning to piece together the shots at lloyd's but the experts warn this might not be the last such a time as the perceived failure of a multicultural society grows the new bush will see. earlier i spoke with the will of anderson a spokesman for the union of russian communities in sweden and a man who knew anders breivik personally he says the news came as a shock although he believes brave it was surrounded by things that could have influenced his actions. i could not imagine i'm not even imagine that. you must have been brainwashed he had an ego and especially

who in relation to girls for example the bare facts are other guys. who'll be. working with. and that kind of a little bit. but will belong. on the other hand if you lose the sack. very. much you can be compared to but there is an ethos of both do nomination saying automate. each of them are trying to shoot. on the other hand there is just a late. relation who very. bad that you know. sandra was always basically like is your voice and. the wrong way you want to.

just in dargon a research fellow with a divide initiative says recent years have created the perfect environment for far right extremism to flourish. while this transnational islamic terrorism has been on the radar for some time the very real threat of the homegrown right wing extremists has been over law within most western countries we have seen two things happening at the same time we have seen this type of ratcheting up of rhetoric anti immigration rhetoric this is happening to us and also western europe and there's also been this demise we can say multiculturalism so there have been individuals that have more or less become quite quite self radicalized due to vironment and also due to the idea that there's just been an influx of immigration then compound these factors has also been the global economic crisis so you have the euro zone crisis and you also have how the global economic crisis impacted united states so

there has been a general type of environment which has encouraged individuals to take out their frustrations and newly arrived immigrants so i think that this is something that is actually very very very very important for western policy makers to look at so i think in the coming years we're going to see more of this right wing extremism. and a lot of the attacks norway has imposed stricter border controls denmark did the same thing a little more than two weeks ago a move strongly criticized by other e.u. members alexander sullivan from moscow state humanitarian university says there are signs that a united europe may be falling apart. the european project is collapsing slowly collapsing you know there are lots of license coming. from the north africa and some countries have a cancer rates fold is they have to. back their research and that has controlled

immigration and that's. only tells us that the european fold it lets the you know kind of vitality the right agenda and it should be shared by the people living in the e people house would be ready to actually lose people they have to say no to this coming to the country. the governments all those countries how to put it to the referendum actually talk to the people rather than just saying we have to always have band this band that every stakeholder has to have a site unit not just the citizens of the country not just the migrants because you see there is a contradiction brave you could famous for all these anti's alarmists calls supposedly to the information shape by the media no wait and at the same time there is an islamized again ization that. they have taken responsibility for all of the blast in no way so you see there is a contradiction in this where you sense the islamists calls and at the same time

islamist organizations taking responsibility means that there is something deeply wrong with the communication. the norway attacks have sent shock waves around the world and sparked a passionate debate on what's behind it on our web site r.t. dot com or asking what's the cornerstone of the tragedy so far the majority of you think your fanaticism is to blame fewer people thirty nine per cent say the tension stemming from multiculturalism ten per cent say the reason is global terror that penetrates everywhere and a minority say it's because of the earlier security forces what do you think brought on to already dot com and how do i say. security analyst chris yates from manchester u.k. things in norway was just unprepared for this type of crisis. what we're talking about here is possibly could be. instructive to say that the. european organization the police forces in europe europe all. together.

to a group of so if you will so. to aid police forces across europe people looking inward as opposed to. now the question is why this is not done. because there are any number of reports that you can read only internet and privately those reports. suggest that. the rise of right wing stream is the main europe problem a number of years so the question is why we don't look into ourselves could we have done of these things much better probably we could who. would we go from here. recapping now our main story the tragedy in norway the latest is thirty

two year old anders behring breivik is charged with killing ninety four people in the twin attacks on friday brave shot dead eighty seven people according to police most of them teenagers on the island of new toy during a youth camp rally for the governing labor party he reportedly traveled to the island in police uniform and asked people to gather around before opening fire the rampage came just hours after a huge car bomb tore through central oslo claiming the lives of at least seven a second man was seized by special forces in the area where victims' families had gathered but it's unclear if he has any connection to the atrocity. will be keeping you up to date on the latest in this story throughout the program and more with expert comment and analysis on the situation so stay with us. to. though to some other stories that we're covering on our t.v. european leaders are breathing a sigh of relief as greece is provided with a battle out of one hundred nine billion euros this despite the threat of athens

credit arranging credit rating plunging into the dreaded default category critics say the second cash handout isn't nearly enough to get the euro back on its feet. president sarkozy has been saying in brussels you know greece is a special case it's received this special support from the europeans and other countries won't receive that but of course. do we believe that i'm not sure that we do because it's inconceivable that the europeans wouldn't step in but they and it's also i think inconceivable that even the resources now available to the financial stability fund the sort of nascent a european monetary fund i think they wouldn't really be sufficient in the a if it was a sort of battle between the bond markets and the italian government so those sort of without wanting to paint nightmare scenario yes i don't think we're out of the

woods yet. meanwhile across the atlantic the u.s. government remains divided over the country's national debt 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 than borrowing on top of its existing limit of fourteen point three trillion dollars if it is asian isn't reached by august second the u.s. will be unable to pay its bills and have to default democrats suggest resolving the looming default by increasing taxes on the rich while republicans are calling for severe spending cuts a journalist greg palast says if the man on the street will have to foot the bill for the government's expects s. of spending. george bush when he was president for two thousand we want two thousand and eight one on why it's. a surplus given to him and eighty six billion dollars a year by bill clinton turned that into a six hundred million dollars per year deficit adding three trillion dollars us.

eric cantor voted for all those for bush's wars in iraq for the weapons for the tax cuts now these guys don't want to pay the bill they're trying to got to say that the that the tax cuts for the rich that bush is or is somehow a compromise means that the this in dollars will be paid for by eliminating benefits for the working class it's not our debt i didn't borrow the money i didn't buy a virginia class submarine the cost to be eight billion apiece bush or thirty six i didn't get anything labor by amazon to my door i didn't encourage these debts the american people the elderly people on social security didn't encourage it gets better and receiving better veterans benefits didn't increase the debt it was the result of bush's wars bush's tax cuts while spending for these programs what we need to do is increased spending for lower income people for the elderly because

they'll spend it and get us out of this depression we're in a depression you can't save your way out of a depression the problem is that people are not spending money to banks are sitting on a trillion dollars in in cash and not lending it out our problem is the lack of spending in the united states a lack of demand a lack of capital being given out we're building it and it has nothing to do art is resident on the streets of new york laurie harshness asked people in the big apple whether they're ready to pay more taxes to save the economy. would you be willing to pay more in taxes to save your government from bankruptcy this week let's talk about that. definitely would pay more if any of their spending . demands whether they're spending on defense. or education.

so do you trust your government to spend it correctly i don't trust any of the parties in our country a little bit how much is a little but. few percentage points more and that's about it 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 this shared sacrifice it all depends on how much work you put your life if you know if i'm working hard and i make you my good my good share you know why they want to get taken away from me when people who you know don't. you know you just spend a lot more money in taxes so that more people have my summa says you have to pay for people who aren't working as hard as you yeah yeah do. with that well yeah i think everybody should have it ok so i think it's ok because if you pay too

much taxes you know you take the energy from people who want to work so if you're too much texas you have a better government like in the states that have better government they spend all their money on crazy wars in iraq and afghanistan. so i would take first of the stupid wars and there you don't need a tax increase no 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. recovery efforts continue on russia's vulgar river following the country's worst ever boating disaster the sunken pleasure cruiser the bald garia has been towed to shallow waters next step is to pump water from the hole to make direct light enough to lift experts are eager to examine the ship to find out exactly why it sank two weeks ago one hundred fourteen people are confirmed dead after the tragedy eight

could be both the united states and made to 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 a levy a very bombing is one hundred percent nato operation timing of nato operation against libya demonstrated not on the lack of trust between the united states and pakistan and afghan leadership it is also indicative of a huge credibility gap between the genuine united states of america and its european nato partners coming up this hour algren of speaks with alexis crow from the u.k.'s royal institute of international affairs about nato's role in the libyan conflict here's a sneak peak. if you look in the international community in the wider international

community sometimes if you look at need to engage with other countries for example afghanistan. and iraq it's given need to name its means that the u.k. and the u.s. are coming to see regime change centrally and so because of that bad name to begin with france and brits in and the u.s. said it did not explicitly did not use the words regime change and of course there's several theories one of them is called eliot cohen. from america and he said that the use of airpower exclusive to carry out a political solution is equivalent to modern courtship it offers immediate satisfaction without little guaranteed or commitment and so in one sense is a policy of what robert pape calls decapitation decapitation policy literally taking the head off of a regime does little to change anything politically on the ground as we've clearly seen in afghanistan with the removal of the taliban and so we've clearly seen with

the removal of saddam hussein so it's not a policy that works regime change. however i would say that therefore wasn't on the cards to begin with in that very overt sense but of course it had to be because you if you're thinking of stopping him killing his citizens you obviously have to stop him. from being in power in some sense i would say that in libya either we shouldn't gone in a tall. or we should have done something like this which of course is not the nature of coalition fighting. pottermore outline for you what are. the stories you'll find there today georgian of the target first convicted of spying for russia relieved with colleagues convinced their confessions were coworkers find out why the opposition believes the case had nothing to do with justice from the start. and for in the
