well it's not just syria that's experiencing a media war there have been conflicting reports coming from libya in the past few days as to what's actually going on there which according to some experts has been done on purpose next r.t. here's a member of a western fact finding mission who recently returned from the north african country with certainly a few interesting details to tell us. it's been described as the file chapter think it's our favorite was the end to the war in libya same as saying the the realisation now setting in that still remains a little tough battle ahead we're joined now by yvonne de vito he has just come back from libya where you were compiling an independent dossier on what was happening on the ground this i thank you very much for joining us there you've been saying that it's because certainly here in italy the news reports about what was happening in libya were very confusing a lot of conflicting information secure tell us what you saw what you found was do
6:32 am
with this in mind that it went to libya on the twenty eighth of july and we came back on the seventh of august and we found a totally different situation because nato was bombarding civilians the bombings were not only carried out to military targets but they also hit houses hospitals schools television centers and this was totally against the humanitarian reasons they said they were there for i believe they were doing this to bring panic in the city that's why they were bombing the things that people use daily like places with food and essential utilities like hospital was that this was a very difficult period for muslim because of ramadan and that is why in the daytime they're in their house went to tripoli and to the town and we saw huge protests with thousands of procrit davi supporters turning out against nato and all of these demonstrations were not shown in italy also visited to endure and since we were and found a lot of women that were screaming at us asking why you were talons are bombing us
6:33 am
what did we do to you why are you killing our children that was the main question went to time the same day they bombed the highlands and then this house two children were killed and we tried to show the pictures of these children that were dead but apart from us no one else did the same except the things that we saw with our own eyes visiting these places that were born and have so much much too. press officers and journalists from libya gave to us as destiny to all the data from the nato bombings after all the things that we still we have one question where is this a humanitarian war are they really helping the civilians better because i believe that all this is because of economic reason or at least there are other reasons why this war happened to try only among other things that also visited libya before and what we found was a normal situation where people were finally differently from other countries that went through a revolution us libya is considered to be the switzerland of the african continent and is very rich and schools are free for the people are hospitals are free for the
6:34 am
people and the conditions for women are much better than in other arab countries ok that you've personally let us here self in a number of occasions what you think post-war and post gadhafi libya is going to look like you're going to have on television stations are showing people fighting and demonstrating against gadhafi i personally saw many people demonstrating for khadafy i don't know why so many journalists are not sharing this because they're manipulating the situation with independent media show these videos on the internet because there is more freedom from what we saw personally when we were in libya and from the documents we quote we saw the rebels as disorganized groups others other theories amongst the people that the rebels coming to power will prefer a continuation of the volatile situation a bit queer i believe that the rebels will not be able to do a good job after gadhafi among them there are many groups islamists tunisian people
6:35 am
that i don't know why they are there al-qaeda rebels from libya the just you wanted to change but there is too much disorganization to make a good job it is the people we interviewed were very afraid to imagine that the rebels could take power because they think that they are not able to govern the country or to take control in a proper way the chiefs of these groups of rebels are ex politicians. from the politicians that's before while with gadhafi and then they completely changed their fate they went with the wind as they say in italy where there are concerns all the monks the rebels now all there are many ex politicians that are simply taking off their uniforms joining the rebels and living to fight another day and i think a corrupt politician as well and this was also demonstrated as the chief of the robbers was killed at the order of the leader of the rebels we've seen many times that these rebels are making criminal acts for example they've taken libyan soldiers and killed them by cutting their heads off and they take their hearts out and show them to people and so our question is i want making allies of these people
6:36 am
to talk committing criminal acts and can these people really govern a country when we talk of the nato mission for humanitarian reasons do you think that justification for the war in libya stands up to scrutiny. and i believe it's not a valid justification because most of the targets were civilian ones and many people say the people were targets on purpose to create panic on the ground how much of the discrepancy did you see on the ground between what later was saying or you're seeing i think many many discrepancies every day the first day nato bombed a civilian target i potted jived to people saying it was a mistake but the day after they kept bombing civilian targets and when the libyan government was asking why are you bombing civilians need to we're denying it saying it was gadhafi compound that wasn't true you saw it this is described by years a war of dissent the nation how much of that did you see on the ground you can see
6:37 am
still how much the media are manipulating the situation when they say the gadhafi sons have been arrested was this turns out to be untrue the reports that all of tripoli have been taken over by the robbers and this also of course. a friend of ours who is a businesswoman who lives in tripoli and one of the created a commission to make an investigation. to the facts of what happened in libya she told me she found some journalists who were making false reports saying that the rebels were behind them when in fact the city behind them was empty we saw pictures of green square that is completely full of rebels but if you compare those pictures to other pictures of green square it's completely different it seems like a set was created on purpose to make the public think that all of tripoli was taken over by the rebels and all the gadhafi family was dead was think this is a major tactic because they want people to think that the rebels have taken power and i believe they're doing this because nato has an hari to show this before the thirtieth of august because they don't want to have to provide further financing
6:38 am
for the rule other theories amongst the people that the rebels coming to power will prove a continuation of the volatile situation this was not a popular demonstration but a huge military action against gadhafi i think after gadhafi it will be very difficult and may to one leave the national transitional council to govern as they have put a lot of money into this war so probably they would want some of that power and to be in charge that there was just an excuse or justification that they want to help the people they will continue to take control of the city it took about the tribes in libya just think that western countries understand exactly what it's going to take. to bring democracy to live you before it was difficult to maintain the government in libya because it's made of many tribes it's a society made of tribes that have conflicts with each other so it was difficult
6:39 am
before and i imagine now it will be even more saudi thing's going to happen in me and many other people that are watching libya are afraid that this may become another of ghana's danny a country that's double stated by wars that last for years it's a society completely different from us and our idea of democracy they don't approve it. it that their idea of government is based on group centroids that have their own chief than those chief together from the national council they believe that this is the only way to represent all social groups for example they don't like our full democracy because that sixty percent of the country votes for one president then the remaining fools who don't agree with the president they believe this is not a form of democracy this is the first time that the country was attacked even though they are for a commission to go into the country and to investigate and find facts that didn't happen they just attacked that this was started with rules pictures sent by al jazeera through the media other media do these pictures and confirms the most true

inspired sox favor than their rivals eg yeah after all the muscovites can still qualify for the next round even with a nil nil or a one one draw however the polish side are probably not going to stick around in defense and will want to charge the red and whites goal continuously while another two two draw seems unlikely in this return leg only one goal could send either team on to the group stages of the europa league this would probably be the toughest much since i began coaching leggy a year ago but we're not afraid and came to moscow full of desire to fight and we're hoping to win we had a few chances he moves through and i hope we'll have enough of them here to leg ace coming off a two one home defeat in a match where it was considered a hot favorite in the latest round in the polish league that could mean several things including the fact that the team finds it hard to cope with two matches a week well it's either that or leg it was conserving energy as head of the europa

league play off against spartak moscow because i don't think le guin lost the match because the team is weaker than that particular opponent a match against them in poland was very emotional and took away a lot of their energy the poles admitted that match against spartak was their best performance in the recent years well spartak drew in their last away match in the russian premier league against their namesakes from egypt where it seems that sparked sox performance doesn't fall into a certain pattern after all before their two two draw in the first leg against the red and whites thrashed one of russia's most promising sides and scoreline of three nil. in addition to spark. away goals and. also have. home pitch advantage and the return leg it's highly unlikely that the eighty thousand seat luzhniki stadium will be filled to capacity however the fans of the smiles decorated russian club are known for their great support in any
