europe and the middle east. the launch of a full inquest into the into the death of former russian agent alexander litvinenko leading to some uncomfortable revelations about britain's intelligence services. eleven am in moscow i matras are 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 the u.n. expressed concern over a video footage taken following his capture that apparently shows khadafi taken alive before being killed meanwhile nato said it's winding down its bombing campaign in the country artes and he said now why has the latest from tripoli. the n.t.s.b. is saying that gadhafi was killed by 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 his 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 was 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 and touches his head quite some blood away and then there's a heart i know it seems that he was dead in the later which is the same thing with one of his sons that was captured in syria the 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 we've been very critical about neighbors mission here but in libya not that something needs to be done about an investigation the u.n. is planning on launching 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 gadhafi was killed in these pictures that we saw were perhaps not the

best possible way to go to look at. 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 it has been repeated numerous times that nato planes are now have a u.n. mandate to ensure a no fly zone over libya and the convoy was imposing 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 of course how this mission began back in march the u.n. looking into when it will officially and also pushing for that listen to and assumed as possible the date when you know it is october thirty first but it has to be said officially nato mission. it's 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.g.c. troops and set me down field oil with the low mostly 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 the b.m.a. can answer that question not so world analysts are certainly looking into what will happen will be chaos here one of the main fears is that libya could break out into something kind of tribal war that there's going to be this hour the world community has begun to think what will we see happen here in the upcoming months and years. international consultant and author adrian she 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 saw she does it and then started laughing this is a message to the world of how this new world order model actually works well when they decide to take only regina they do so with the utmost violence and it's a whole model based on orwellian newspeak so to speak first they target a role of a country by calling it a robe state they support local terrorists and call them freedom fighters then they degrade death and destruction upon civilians and they call the un sanctions then they spread lies and call it the international community's opinion expressed by the western media then they invade and control a country and call it liberation and finally they steal appetising oil and call it foreign investments and reconstruction on our website you can find the latest on

the mysterious death of colonel qadhafi an analysis of what's next committee that's on our team dot com. there is no victory to claim there's nothing to look back. coming up a look at the legacy of america's eight year campaign in iraq as barack obama confirms the remaining troops are leaving this year plus. i saw him coming out of the old median cafeteria and i heard two 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 in a village part of everyday life despite the presence of international peacekeepers . but first there's been another round of protest arrests in new york anti-corporate demonstrators complained police are taking too heavy an approach and they're continuing to they're continuing peaceful rallies are loosing caffein of house 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 a police precinct 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 to jail if something is found on their physical body. with some high level high profile activists taken away in handcuffs after her no one asked for all day except on the 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 and i reporter

a journalist who had been trying to film the events just like we were the police officers went after him physically at which point several activists and below ten of them with their bodies to try to protect him and keep him from getting arrested those two activists were then handcuffed rather violently and taken in the back of the police truck and taken away now 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 movement that seems to have spread wide across the world not just here in the united states. israel's 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 protest 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 the politicians. they went too far in taking for granted the citizens occupy wall street it wasn't that long ago israelis were calling to occupy what's child boulevard i mean in a bid to join the protests from the beginning she was inspired by what happened in cairo and called her taint tapio corner they had car but here people were fading and were playing music every evening and people are coming and talking to ours 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 by the first hour or a day or i really break ok i have to face an hour and seventy how the protests in new york have strong parallels with those in israel in how they came about and why

the similarity between the protesters just uncanny. the way they started on facebook the way they chose a location very close to where. the center of power is where the center of greed is for in this case there was street but many are wondering what exactly that struggle in israel achieved recommendations made by government committee still need to be implemented and that could take a while this looks like any other street in tel aviv but the foot the focal point of the social pain of the revolution i think its role of the taint to be replaced with bikers and the social demands are still waiting to be made. like many american is rabies many is watching the u.s. rallies closely and says they are an inspiration to many in israel he's proud people are taking a stand against corruption and greed to protest the struggle and the anger to. when the people stop and the struggle is still going to go on i view that more and more people live on the gloom and. tel aviv. stay with us here on our

t.v. still to come this hour the voice of protest. political and economic reform the home of both parties i think we want to party resident laurie harkness business lower manhattan to find out just what the central message is uniting occupy wall street protesters. first the widow of former russian agent alexander litvinenko has admitted her husband was working for british intelligence services new details were revealed at a full inquest launched five years after the lit out for till after live and go died of radiation poisoning in london authorities ivor better reports it might see some uncomfortable truths about brit 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 as a credible body did nobody really expected me at the inquest hearing even though british officials claim that i'm hiding from justice my lawyers annoy 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 read this go and look at always lawyers last week echoed calls from a live in yonkers widow for a full inquest which is now finally been ordered but that's prompted yet another twist in a case already steeped in intrigue at all the. my lawyers and i put ourselves food as an interested party so live in yonkers we don't i was forced to admit her husband was a paid agent of m i five and m i six equal but he worked for britain's intelligence and not just as a consultant she had no other choice she realized if i get involved in the inquest

this will be reviewed anyway because i know a few facts that will force a british court to ask m i five an m i six a few questions. until now marina lippman yankers always denied any such link she says he was out of loyalty to her husband she refused to speak to us they said mission leaves m i five facing awkward questions in an inquest they were the only party trying to limit and they did take it for granted that they can just brush embarrassment country carpet and as i said if it had been consulting for them or working with them and he died in highly. the tourist circumstances on their patch then you have of course they would be our questions about not offering protection to people and also not offering protection to the london public is the sort. ten left 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 but 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 a death which however horrible to an accusation that mr lugovoy was responsible is is ludicrous i mean it's all looks very fishy joy an 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 live in yankee met lugovoy for breakfast here but they he fell ill and that's when he's alleged to have been poisoned forensics did find the contaminated teapot but 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 lugovoy he says he'll answer any questions they've got not in person of course but via video link i've been it r t london. 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 and the war has cost u.s. taxpayers more than seven hundred billion dollars in military spending a lone ranger 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. is very important milestone i think that our keys in general have been waiting for this is the last eighty years we want to hear that this is you

need to be occupation is all but it's all for all and it is a major step in that i that action unfortunately it does not. mention. because the u.s. is planning on sixteen thousand person under the state department over all political leaders of not. to train the new iraqi army on using the newly purchased u.s. weapons but they are against granting them immunity because that have been a long list of crimes that were committed killing iraqi civilians with no accountability the u.s. intervention and occupation of iraq has been stuck there is no victory to claim it is nothing to look back at it has been a disaster that should not have happened it's a disaster of death and destruction and the us has been

a part of iraq's problem. decade or two decades since 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 in that i talk. it's always plenty of stories videos and analysis of a click away at our team dot com here's what's online and right now. apple's late founder steve jobs planning an all out battle with google find out why plus. storage blastoff a russian soyuz rocket launches from a french space base in the tropics carrying the use for a sat nav system aiming to break the dominance of america's g.p.s. . the former commander of u.s. troops in iraq and afghanistan and the new cia chief has directed intelligence analysts to give more weight to the opinions of troops in the field but david

petraeus is a request met with a flurry of criticism our military contributor you have going to take a look. how come they have the media saying the general betray us in his new capacity as the langley director has come under their friendly fire from all sides possible i'm talking about his latest initiative to reverse this standard operating procedure regarding the sharing all of the preliminary analysis between the cia. us army officers in the field he's not even in charge of the defense intelligence agency which at least has the full lead to toot to conduct or to solicit its military officers and rank and file men opinion regarding the situation in afghanistan and beyond however the small scale as much more significance than

meets the eye it reflects the ongoing and unfolding turf battle between those supporters over that patrols counterinsurgency doctrine that has totally failed to afghanistan and this latest initiative is nothing else but just another attempt though a very subtle one to justify and exonerate already defunct counterinsurgency doctrine fathered by betrayals and failed in afghanistan. at least two thousand serbs and nato soldiers and riot gear remain at a faceoff on the kosovo border service have been ordered again to remove barricades and roadblocks they have been building out there if they're crossing or can't worry if an ocean has more. as months of tension between serbs and ethnic albanian cos of us continue roads in northern course they remain closed for some serbs or for to find their barricades and see themselves again as victims of history these cartoon

reads we defeated your grandad we defeated your father's will win again local serbs compare the nature led peacekeeping force in kosovo ok for the fascist occupiers of the past they will then why do they think they can come and take our land serbia's our home we don't want to live in albania one of the little bottle 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 prefer a peaceful solution by talk by an agreement which i did all in the last week but if that is not to be reached i have to be on my own i have to do fall back on my old needs. some of them are. going to be no surprise the generals only means a military once the status quo northern course of

a remains the standoff between k. four soldiers and local serbs civilians is no closer to resolution but people from both sides of the barricades are glad to avoid any further violence but away from media glare hostility is common place this twenty three year old syrian man was with his father when he was shot just three weeks ago visiting an old ben village in courses south where serbs a minority living in tiny and claves i was waiting for him in a car and i saw him coming out of the albini and cafeteria when i heard two gunshots and my dad fall down i rushed to him but i was worried he died 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 the place they'll teach me i'm worrying about my family and myself in

a separate incident just last week another unarmed server was killed in a cold front with a local these two men together with their friend mere drug they follow the family went to see what used to be serial land now owned by ethnic albanians since serbs fled after nature's nine hundred ninety nine bombing of yugoslavia they were stopped by the new york pio we talked for five minutes then he said he needed to come back to his car to take his son from but came back instead with a kalashnikov do you want your number he shouted and started firing us on drug was killed at the scene. the man who just lost their friend say 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 of 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 likely to change or if

a month into the occupy wall street movement is there a unified method this week let's talk about that. there isn't a centralized message a lot of people say that's the problem and i think that's actually a strength that we currently have. as a movement where we're just over a month old. october seventeenth was our 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 sound bite no one has the tension and a.d.d. work and they need a sound bite are there off of the current dominant paradigm and where 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 that the message is that unified and that's an issue that the movement is having its problem communicating but i don't see it as 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 there 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 profiling theme to it everybody is disenfranchised with something you're saying education and health care some guy over there just said shipping jobs out of the

country that through their stuff a part of it i mean there's not one thing i said it's not just one thing and there's a bunch of different reasons out that i'm part of that too i mean i definitely agree with that the fact that they're shipping jobs in the country we don't need any more so so how would you sum it up in one clears that tends what the messages here. political and economic reform the whole of both parties i think we want to new party so it seems like everyone here feels like there is a unified message and that is there isn't a unified mass 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
