9:02 am
for troops came over there pointed their guns at the serbs blockading this particular area and ordered them that they should leave the serbs obeyed and retreated peacefully with no violence and set up another a manmade checkpoint and they put two large trucks on a bridge thus blocking the road the access for troops into the northern part of course there was still more than seven people remain in local hospitals and in the town of. after being injured in she was this clashes with weekly for troops we managed to pay them a visit and ask them what exactly happened on tuesday russian person. we were standing by the barricade when the soldiers started shouting and shooting at us i didn't know what they were shooting with so i got scared and started running away and i was hit on the shoulder and it turned out to be a perforated my lungs. the most interesting fact here is that the k. four troops and nato have been trying to convince everybody that they only used
9:03 am
rubber bullets and tear gas grenades against the angry mob to pacify them but doctors in local hospitals told us that they those people who were injured in those clashes were delivered to hospitals carrying gunshot wounds to his room. seven men in heavy condition gunshot wounds fractures and bruises they were not from rubber bullets either single of them had a rubber hold those wounds were caused by regular bullets which we extract from their bodies now the serbs may have lost one of their checkpoints but they have lots more around the area we've counted more than ten different checkpoints the determination of the sort of people is very strong now to show that they do not want to be part of the cost of a republic. they are telling us to leave we have no way to leave this is because constable is our land our home and our life it seems to be on our own
9:04 am
now stand our ground. there has been very harsh international response on the actions of this week here in kosovo with the united states using the cost of the service of provoking violence and the russian foreign ministry expressing deepest concerns over the situation here saying that this may seem as a small as a minor border crossing this but in reality this could destabilize the situation in the whole region. just the reporting right actions of nato peacekeepers may only provoke a not prevent that's according to belgrade based political analyst like on the average. they've totally and openly stepped out of the un mandate and they're really really now just like during one nine hundred ninety nine during the bombing when they were the air force for the albanian separatists are now acting as their infantry so this is what we have this is a clear breach of the u.n.
9:05 am
charter and the resolution to all forty four all they're doing right now is that they're actually. the stabilizing the situation they're actually bringing conflict . everything was reasonably peaceful until they gave the green light for our albanian special police forces to forcibly take the administrative border back in july and ever since then they've been giving them full support so they're encouraging actually the government in prishtina headed by ha shem toci who is wanted for various charges from organ trafficking to drug trafficking and that they're encouraging him to more violence so they're not a piece factor at all they're a total thought through of war and the stabilization. i wanted to like your strategy is in cause i will be bringing you all of us updates as soon as they happen for the meantime so you can head over to our. free video page to get the

9:07 am
a little security as they follow no particular order and their weapons at will robert perry is the editor of internet investigative magazine a consortium of news he thinks people are now realizing the cost of blindly supporting the revolutionary forces. there is evidence even going back to the group beginning that you shouldn't part of libya was a part of islamic radicalism but some of these people have been. one of the al-qaeda leaders who was killed recently a cheer was a libyan from this general area and now we know that one of the leaders of the rebel forces that took tripoli there was also considered very close to al qaeda and was. seen by the united states for some time before he was allowed to go free so it appears that all of the guns on the side of the. being rebels and out of government are people who have this very mixed background and it's not clear how the south when you get down to the point of once
9:08 am
a country under the control this is force which side of this force will will be predominant. meantime libyan a revolutionary forces say they have surrounded the city of sirte could efi strongholds meanwhile aid agencies are alarmed to the thousands of civilians fleeing the perceived town people are being driven from their homes by fierce fighting and a general lack of supplies rebel i'd say deputy editor of the independent online magazine spiked says the situation has only been made worse by nato. and this is the inevitable consequence of the think things that they got rolling back in february you know the kind of half hearted intervention was always going to end up with last time by gadhafi forces in fact is this is the last stand that we expected in tripoli a few weeks ago that never happened and clearly there's a lot of this thing about the role of the international community no could be making things worse not simply by bombarding the city but boy actually having made
9:09 am
such a fuss about civilians not being injured or even though they could hardly put by saying that if given the could duffey forces a real face it to keep keep those civilians in the city probably well i'm sure many of them would like to get out of there now but. become a kind of a shield by which the they can stay there for a. bit longer and with no end in sight to be ongoing libyan conflict many are warning that it could actually follow the path of the afghan war that's been raging for a decade now later in the program here i ask people in new york what they think ten years of fighting. i don't see a goal and really see anything changing even if we stay there another hundred years for a war there for that long it better be for something we better get something out of it and that's going to happen now more opinions on the worth of the afghan war from the heart of the big apple that's coming your way in just

9:11 am
. as far as the greek people are concerned adherents to the single currency means higher taxes low gov expenditure and cuts in their standard of living and also for and also even even for a country like germany in fact specifically a country like germany at here's the single currency means massive transfer payments paid to countries in southern europe and what's happening is that the germans are no longer putting up with it we shouldn't be where we are now and it is because of the fanaticism of this european elite and we should look very carefully at what they have to say in the future these are guilty men and they are discredited and what is very worrying is that as my as my father used to say to me when i was a young man he said if you make a financial guarantee the nature of five financial guarantees is that they get caught and there is a limit to how much even a country like germany can produce because a country like france is actually much much less and there will be a long term question marks over the credit credit worthiness of france and germany
9:12 am

it's almost ten years now since american troops led the invasion into afghanistan a decade of fighting has led to thousands of u.s. soldiers and afghan civilians being killed or half of us now of course the people on the streets of new york to see if they believe that this war story will ever have a happy ending. it's been ten years since the u.s. bound to afghanistan as a prelude to an ongoing war a decade later has it been worth it this week let's talk about that for was this no benefit to what is still doing there for ten years i don't know what the have they do and i don't know it's probably another vietnam. war where the problem is not a we're not. going to win it's just a case of more and more americans and others dying things clearcut see that it's not worth it i don't see
