prepares to wrap up what it calls a successful campaign in libya following the death of colonel gadhafi leave the battle scarred country to the new authority. meanwhile the emphasis so liberation ceremony will take place in benghazi later today that as local pressure grows to find out whether good job he was killed in crossfire or executed joining me and he says no way in tripoli from. new york's occupy wall street protests to go on despite more arrests in the styrene copycat demonstrations calling for social change and economic justice in europe and the middle east. the launch of a full inquest into the leak of the death of former russian agent alexander litvinenko lead to some uncomfortable revelations about britain's intelligence services.

a lot of i am in moscow i mattress or good to have you with us here on r t our top story there is growing international pressure for an investigation into exactly how libya's ousted dictator moammar gadhafi died and u.n. expressed concern over a video footage taken following his capture that apparently shows could be taken alive before being killed meanwhile nato said it's winding down its bombing campaign in the country artie's i mean way has the latest from tripoli. the n.t.s.b. is saying that gadhafi was killed by a bullet wounds also conflicting reports as to where exactly those shots were in his stomach in the right side of his head and the left side of the head it's looking very shady and then this brutal video that went viral the mainstream media showing it more than twenty four hours constantly of gadhafi whether or not he's dead or alive very unclear at first in the first couple of shots that he did in fears that he's alive he actually goes in churches head quite some blood away and

then there's a heart i know it seems that he was dead in those later which is the same thing with one of his sons that was captured in syria first pictures of him standing against a wall smoking a cigarette very clearly alive then the video cards and all of the sudden he's dead so really pressure coming from around the world both from the west and other countries that been very critical about neda's mission here in libya not that something needs to be done about an investigation the u.n. is running almost an investigation and russia's foreign minister was very clear that russia and many of many countries and officials around the world feel like the way dappy was killed in these pictures that we saw were perhaps not the best possible way. it's the footage shown on t.v. proves that he was captured alive and wounded and after that he was killed later there were reports that a convoy carrying macondo was attacked by nato planes and after that the rebels captured members of that convoy has been repeated numerous times that nato planes

are only have a u.n. mandate to ensure a no fly zone over libya and the convoy wasn't posing any threat to civilians on the ground and could be a legitimate target so nato actions pose a number of questions as well. as speaking of that no fly zone which is of course how this mission began back in march the u.n. looking into when it will officially and now russia pushing for that mission to end as soon as possible if it were you know it is october thirty first but it has to be said officially nato mission. is very much alive here in libya today the official liberation ceremony will take place in benghazi we're hearing it will take place there that of course was the original rebel stronghold where their whole fight for freedom began it will take place there instead of the capital because the security situation here is still very tense just a couple of days ago there was a shootout between n.t.s.c. troops and the town feel loyal with them though most of the celebrations have been taking place obviously officials the interim officials are worried that there could

be some kind of violence here in the capital very few people obviously were on the streets asking what's next for libya and they couldn't answer that question my god so world analysts are certainly looking into what will they be chaos here one of the main fears is that libya could break out into some kind of tribal war that there's going to be these powers the world community has begun to think what will we see happening here in the coming months and years. their national consultant and author adrian so he says western powers should also be accountable for the death of gadhafi because of their desire for regime change. this is a message for the whole world i don't think this is just about libya we are seeing how i think hillary clinton secretary of state of the united states expressed it very clearly on c.b.s. news when she said we came we still he does it and then started laughing this is a message to the world of how this new world order model actually works well when

we decide to take only regime they do so with the utmost violence and it's a whole model based on orwellian newspeak so to speak first a target a real country by calling it a robe state they do support local terrorists and call them freedom fighters then they do brain death and destruction upon civilians and the u.n. sanctions then they spread lies and call it the international community's opinion expressed by the western media then they invade and controlling a country and call it liberation and finally they steal appetising oil and call it foreign investments and reconstruction our website you can find the latest on the mysterious death of colonel gadhafi an analysis of what's next for libya it's all dark and that. there is no victory to claim it is nothing happened to look back that's. coming up our look at the legacy of america's abeer campaign in iraq as barack obama confirms the remaining troops are leaving this year plus.

i saw him coming out of the old meaning cafeteria virtue gunshots and my dad fall down he died immediately i didn't even say good bye to him because of those surveyed say they're living in fear with attacks and killing part of everyday life despite the presence of international peacekeepers. but first there's been another round of protests arrests in new york anti-corporate demonstrators complain police are taking too heavy an approach and they're continuing to they're continuing peaceful rallies right he's losing half an hour has more. as the numbers of the protests continue to increase so does it seems that heavy handed tactics by the new york city police departments we witnessed several arrests about thirty two activists were arrested for demonstrating peacefully outside of precincts out to bring attention to the so-called stop and frisk policy that is widely used here in new york where many innocent civilians can be stopped on the street with very

little actual suspicious was searched and eventually taken suggest something is found on their physical body. with some high level high profile activists taken away in handcuffs after pernell last oral did some others several members of the ministry and several religious leaders were also taken away again just for performing what they say are simply the civil disobedience nonviolent disobedience standing peacefully silently in front of the police precincts that we saw the police actually target about reporter a journalist who had been trying to film the events just like we were the police officers who went after him physically at which point several activists and militant them with their bodies to try to protect him and keep him from getting arrested to activists who were then camp up rather violently and taken aback at the police trucks and taken away you know what this signifies is that the numbers of

these protests continue to grow perhaps putting some sort of fear into the system here where officials don't feel like they can control the movement that seems to have spread wide across the world not just here in the united states. israel is another country that's recently witnessed weeks of protests and calls for social justice but while the tent camps are gone change demanded by the activists is nowhere to be seen pushing israelis toward the growing worldwide occupy movement as are his policy reports. anger outrage and protests on the streets of new york a throwback to the same scenes different streets around ten thousand kilometers away the politicians in the united states exaggerated in the same way as the this is where they went far in taking for granted the citizens occupy wall street it wasn't that long ago israelis were calling to occupy

what struggling hard you know libya joined the protests from the beginning she was inspired by what happened in cairo and caught retained tapio corner well they had a car but here people were bidding or were playing it was it every evening and people are printing it out in three hours as you know watches events unfold in faraway new york she misses the six weeks she lived here and wishes she could be part of the wall street rallies i am very proud of were i really if it were the right. so that you case and so many how the protests in new york have strong parallels with those in israel in how they came about and why the similarity between the protest is just uncanny. the way they started on facebook the way they chose a location very close to where. the center of power is or the center of readers for in this case there was a street but many are wondering what exactly that struggle is will achieve

recommendations made by government committee still need to be implemented and that could take a while let's look back at any of the streets in tel aviv at the foot of the focal point of emotional pain revolutionizing israel the came to be replaced with the bikers and the social demands of the waiting to beat me. like media american israeli army kauffman is watching the us rallies closely and says they are an inspiration to many in israel is proud people are taking a stand against corruption and greed to protest the struggle and the anger of the. in the people still and the struggle is going to go on if you get more and more people live on the loop. stay with us here on r.t. still to come this hour the voice of. political and economic reform to hold both parties i think we want to party resident laurie hartman is business lower manhattan to find out just what the central message is uniting occupy wall street

protesters. but first the widow a former russian agent alexander litvinenko has admitted her husband was working for british intelligence services new details were revealed about a full inquest launched five years after the for till after live an ngo died of radiation poisoning in london and starting five or better reports it might see some uncountable truths about great inspire organizations come to light. according to britain this is a man on the run and very lugovoy hasn't left russia since two thousand and six because of an international arrest warrant he's accused of murdering alexander litvinenko in london almost five years ago both former k.g.b. agents but lugovoy says he's got nothing to hide so. nobody really expected me at the inquest hearing even though british officials claim i'm hiding from justice my lawyers and i have found out about it by sheer chance had we not

found out about it i think the british press would have accused us once again of hiding from justice. league of always lawyers last week echoed calls from a libyan because we don't know for a full inquest which is now finally been ordered but that's prompted yet another twist in a case already steeped in intrigue in order. my lawyers and i put ourselves food as an interested party so live in yonkers we was forced to admit her husband was a paid agent of in my sky even in my sixty's but he worked for britain's intelligence and not just as a consultant because she had no other choice she realized you might get involved in the inquest but it will be revealed anyway because i know a few facts that will force the british court to ask in my five in my suits a few questions. until now marina lippman younkers always denied any such link she says he was out of loyalty to her husband she refused to speak to us this is mission leaves m i five facing awkward questions and inquest they were the

only party trying to limit and they did take it for granted that they can just crash in paris without help it and i said if you can yank it had been consulting for them or working with them and he died in highly and the tourist that of that is on there perhaps then you have of course they were questions about not offering protection to people and also not offering protection to the london public if this is. plenty until ten across the city living in kid died a slow and painful death caused by the lethal radioactive substance polonium two ten the unsolved case has been the thorn in the side of british russian relations with moscow refusing to extradite abundance chief suspect as some claim britain's pursuit has blurred the line between fact and fiction there's a whole host of unofficial allegations. how we go from i guess which however horrible to an accusation that mr lugovoy was responsible is

is ludicrous i mean it's all looks very fishy join unbiased observer but the diet that we are being fed in britain through the media. short circuits a lot of that this is where it all began the millennium hotel in central london and it's what happened in here remains the biggest question mark living in commit lugovoy for breakfast here but they fell ill and that's when he's alleged to have been poisoned forensics to find the contaminated teapot the link from that to move is still unproven it's hoped the coroner's inquest will determine once and for all what exactly went on behind these walls something c.c.t.v. missed the police say they have new evidence but won't disclose it until they conclude their own investigation as for a little boy he says he'll answer any questions they've got not in person of course provide a video link i've given it artie wondered. u.s.

president barack obama has announced an end to american military involvement in iraq ordering all u.s. troops home by the end of the year around thirty nine thousand americans will leave the country after more than eight years almost twenty five hundred servicemen and women have died during that time the war has cost u.s. taxpayers more than seven hundred billion dollars in military spending alone granger our blogger an iraqi american political activist thinks the withdrawal from iraq is a step forward for both sides but it doesn't guarantee the end of u.s. influence. very important milestone i think iraq he's in general and have been waiting for this day and the last eight years you want to hear that this is really critical patients it's all the work it's all for all and it is a major step in the identification unfortunately it does not consist in. the bunch of iraq because the u.s. is planning to be out on sixteen thousand person under the state department over

all the iraqi political leaders and nothing. seems to be in the new iraqi army on using the new you just u.s. weapons but they are against don't think an immunity because that have been a long list of crimes that were committed killing iraqi civilians with no accountability for the u.s. intervention and occupation of iraq has been stuck there is not victory because there is nothing to look back on it has been a disaster that should not have happened it's a disaster of death and destruction and the u.s. has been a part of iraq's problem in the caves or through the intervention started i'm very happy that the u.s. is ending its intervention because i think this will help iraqis move forward and put the country. it's always plenty of stories of videos and analysis of click away

a very subtle one to justify and exonerate already defunct counterinsurgency doctrine fathered by trails and failed in against. the least to a least a thousand serbs and nato soldiers in a variety year remain at a faceoff on the kosovo border service have been ordered again to remove barricades and roadblocks they have been building after a day or crossing or where if an ocean i has more. as months of tension between serbs and nichols ben in course was continue roads in northern course remain closed for some serbs are fortifying the barricades and see themselves again his victims of history these cartoon reads we defeated your granddad we defeated your father's will win again local service compare the later lead peacekeeping force in kosovo ok for the fascist occupiers of the past they will then why do you think they can come

and take our land serbia's our home we don't want to live in albania one of the little god look how their own and. we have nothing but flag and faith in god some two hundred meters away they took a four soldiers keep watching i would be moved by taught by an agreement to get it all is in the last week but if that is not to be reached i have to be on my own i have to fall back on my old needs. be no surprise the generals only means a military once the status quo in northern kosovo remains the standoff between k. four soldiers and local serbs of millions is no closer to resolution with people from both sides of the barricades are glad to avoid any further violence away from media hostility is common place. this twenty three year old syrian man who was with

his father when he was shot just three weeks ago visiting an old ben and village in courses south where serbs are minority living in tiny enclaves i was waiting for him in a car and i saw him coming out of the all being cafeteria. gunshots and my dad fall down i watched him but i was worried he guide immediately i didn't even say goodbye to him. nobody would shows us his wounds he was shocked when his father's killers try to eliminate the only witness. i will never return to their place be able to see me i'm worrying about my family and myself in a separate incident just last week in under an arm syria was killed in a confrontation with a local these two men together with their friend here drug to follow their big family went to see what used to be sort of land now owned by ethnic albanians says serbs flare ups nature's nineteen ninety nine bombing of yugoslavia they were

stopped by the new occupier we talked for five minutes and he said he needed to come back to his heart to take insult from who came back and started with a kalashnikov do you want your man back he shouted and started firing as we drug was killed at the scene. the man who just lost their france they there is only one reason he was killed. just because we are serbs periods eleven years after the end of major conflict here and despite the presence international peacekeepers violence seems to be still part of everyday life for some in this troubled breakaway province and there is little sign that's like change grief nationality possible. period out of the other stories making headlines across the globe here to the saudi arabian throne prince sultan bin abdul aziz our south house guy with a five year old defense minister was traveling abroad for medical support time this brings into focus the health of saudi arabia's aging royalty especially king

a one month anniversary and and i think it's it's early to to be issuing any statements or anything along those lines any any sort of movement major movement or revolution or anything like that throughout history has issued a statement within the first month it feels a little absurd to me to expect there to be one core message when this is a movement that's wanting to be inclusive that wants everyone to have a voice and everyone has their own life they have their own struggles is it i mean today's world is the soundbite now it has the potential and a.d.t. were they need a sound bite or they're off of the current dominant paradigm and we're looking to give examples of what alternative paradigms could exist i tried to come every day for a couple of hours so a lot of people are saying the message is it unified and that's an issue that the movement is having its problem communicating but i don't see it is an issue.

because do you feel like it's all unified i think it is ultimately this is a big battle of ideas there's fifteen different worldviews per square foot and. people are talking and people are listening it's like the best university in the world but there's no unified message a lot of people don't seem to really understand why they're here they can articulate it so you know if this sort of makes them think about why they're here well they're in the alternative do you think that that's a problem with the movement is that there isn't a unified message not necessarily. i think there's a prevailing theme to it everybody's disenfranchised with something you say education and health care some guy over there just said shipping jobs out of the country back to their stuff with part of it i mean there's not one thing i guess said it's not just one thing and there's a bunch of different reasons that i'm for that too i mean i definitely agree with the fact that they're shipping jobs of the country we don't need any more so so how would you sum it up in one clears that intense but the math are just here to political and economic reform the whole of both parties i think we want to party

things like everyone here feels like there is a unified methods and that is there isn't a unified math there which they feel like is the very strike of the movements. coming up shortly we discover whether alternative cinema could challenge hollywood but first the headlines in a few moments stay with us. from
