national calls for an investigation with every new piece of video causing a deeper shadow on the official version that he died in crossfire his body is currently being kept in the chill of room in a shopping center in misrata one of the goals of the revolution to oust him hundreds of even have been queuing for photo opportunities with their bloodied body and failure to carry out burial within twenty four hours is a blatant contravention of islamic the now the interim government says it may be coop's to conduct this extended family all season he said. 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 in 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 you didn't hear is
9:02 pm
that he's alive he actually goes and touch the head wipe some blood away and then there's a time and it seems that he was clearly dead in those later pictures the same thing with one of his sons that was captured in syria first pictures of him standing against the wall smoking a cigarette very clearly alive then the video cards and all of a sudden he's dead so really pressure coming from around the world both from the another country that we've been very critical about nato is mission here. i 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 that. 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 member. that convoy has been repeated numerous times that nato planes are
9:03 pm
now have a un 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 how russia pushing for that mission to end the soonest possible new date when you know it is october thirty first but it has to be said of fischer the nato mission is very much alive here in libya gadhafi is body is in a walk in refrigerator now in misrata and already way beyond the twenty four hour mark to how he had been buried by muslim tradition 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
9:04 pm
still very tense just a couple of days ago there was a shootout between m.t.c. troops and the downfield 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 last night asking what's next for they'd be oh they couldn't answer that question was 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 some 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. some in the international community to try to get to the bottom of this death and leaked video could have very well provide the answer everyone is looking for so for the note we grabbed it i hit him in the face some fighters wanted to take him away and that's when i shot him twice in the head and in the chest so this has been fine to said he didn't. mind the idea of taking the cannon alive he also flaunted what he calls
9:05 pm
khadafi is blood of sharks and a gold ring on which the name of cadet his second wife south here and the date of their marriage had been engraved by dr benjamin barber a senior fellow at demos a us think tank doesn't expect anyone to be held accountable for the killing of gadhafi was clearly executed in fact he was executed twice once by the nato air strike intercepted caravan and tried to kill him and then once he was caught by the ground forces again executed sufficiently more efficiently expression to the expect to hold accountable one individual soldier who in the frenzy of battle did it the militia from misrata which that individual was a part of the nato forces there you know bombed the caravan and most of the people apparently forty or fifty who killed but just didn't get gadhafi my only guess is that will be a lot of talk here and in the end nothing will happen because everybody inside
9:06 pm
libya and also outside libya will be basically glad that he's dead and not a wife. still ahead for you this hour double trouble britain faces quick questions as it emerges that poisoned for my k.g.b. agent alexander drinker also had ties with the country's intelligence services. to quit or not to quit fired on british membership of the euro skeptics call for a nationwide referendum on the thinking. people here by wall street movement grows stronger despite a series of arrests and scuffles with police which continue in new york activist the king's the police of heavy handed tactics against people peacefully expressing their opinion. has all that easy. well the occupy wall street protests continue to spread across the united states here in new york city and not only have occupy wall street protesters and camps themselves in zuccotti park but here in union square

9:08 pm
interest do seem to be growing we've seen increasing numbers of protesters out in the streets from seattle to chicago to los angeles some of the people i've spoken to today in fact say they're they're starting a small scale protest in upstate new york it seems like this movement is popping up all across the country faster than authorities know how to handle it one of the interesting facts that many of the protesters here have cited both to me and other reporters working for our teeth is the fact that the united states while it only represents about five percent of the total world's population has the highest one of the highest incarceration rates across the globe in fact a quarter of all world inmates are housed in prisons here in the united states this is one of the biggest issues that's concerning protesters here many of whom like to point out the fact that few people on wall street have been arrested or punished for. corporate crimes while innocent civilians seem to be jailed for simply speaking simply stepping off the curb for example or marching in demonstrations
9:09 pm

9:11 pm
for in this case the wall 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 around this looks like any other street in tel aviv but it looks like the focal point of social change to the revolutionizing its role of the taint be replaced with by cause and the social demands are still waiting to be made so like many american israelis army coffman is watching the us rallies closely and says they're an inspiration to many in israel he's proud people are taking a stand against corruption and greed the protest the struggle and the anger is in the people still and the struggle for going to go on a view that more and more people around the globe seem to share policy r.t. tel aviv. and ahead here this hour the passion behind the protests. that are going to comic reform the whole of both parties i think we want to party. he's

a great deal of money we're spending billions of pounds bailing out a currency we didn't even choose to join but it's not just about economics it's about democracy for too long in this country we've left it to the political elite to decide these questions if you believe in democracy surely you should trust the people the people need to have a say when we join the european union in the early one nine hundred seventy s. we thought we were joining a prosperous trading bloc europe at that time constituted about thirty six percent of global g.d.p. it turns out by twenty twenty your poor account for about fifteen percent of global g.d.p. so you know far from joining a prosperous trading block with shackled ourselves to an economic corpse you know the economic rationale for being in the european union i think is largely gone we want to be global players we want to have free trade relationship should the world not just with belgium and a few indebted states across the channel. the inquest into the death of former russian agent alexander litvinenko was granted by the u.k.

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 new boy 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 lose a void 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. russia has barred several u.s. officials from visiting the country in an escalating over the death of lloyd sergei magnitsky in a moscow prison almost two years ago this comes in response to

american political activist droid sharon saying the u.s. withdrawal is a step forward for both countries but it doesn't mean america's influence in the region will end. this is a very important milestone i think iraqis in general have been waiting for this is the last eighty years we want to hear this u.s. military occupation is of what it's all for and it is a major step in but i bet action unfortunately it does not necessarily mean the end of the u.s. involvement and intervention in iraq because the u.s. is planning to keep sixteen thousand person under the state department all for all the iraqi political leaders are not against keeping some u.s. trainers to train the new iraqi army on using the newly purchased u.s. weapons but they are against granting them immunity because there have been a long list of crimes that were committed killing iraqi civilians with no
9:20 pm
accountability the u.s. intervention and occupation of iraq has been stuck there is not victory to claim there 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 u.s. has been a part of iraq's problem in the last decade or two decades since the intervention started 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 truck. more international headlines for you this hour in northern costa major piskies bride to try to move barricades khattab ethnic serbs that had been stalled by hundreds of people call suppose so have sat in front of sixteen road blocks to prevent foreign troops pushing through the barricades western peacekeepers and local seven leaders afterwards failed to achieve a breakthrough during talks held late on saturday arcades in the region will build

started their fight for told me in one thousand nine hundred eighty four. the un security council has unanimously adopted a resolution calling for yemeni president ali abdullah saleh to immediately step down the document says the leader must transfer power to his deputy and and escalating violence and also strongly condemns excessive use of force against anti-government protesters and you where the fighting between opposition and yemeni government forces has left at least twelve people. to meis to vote for a new government on sunday in the country's first democratic. elections in more than forty years following january's revolution and over ten thousand candidates and eighty parties are running on their secular opponents will compete for two hundred and seventeen seats in a parliament which must draft a new constitution and form an interim government people come to terms month for president. ben ali was ousted in the first popular uprising on the arab spring a verbal. our support for the occupy wall street movement is growing calls the
9:23 pm
world to include even iran and north korea many are wondering what exactly has united so many people in protest during our own president's reporter in new york went to the center of the action to ask people what brought them that. a month into the occupy wall street movement is there a unified mass that this week let's talk about that there isn't a centralized message a lot of people say that's a 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
9:24 pm
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 at the a.d.d. world and they need a soundbite are there often that the current dominant paradigm and we're looking to give examples of what alternative paradigms could exist and i tried to come every day for a couple of hours so a lot of people are saying that the message is it 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 a 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 to
9:25 pm
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 profiling theme to it everybody's disenfranchised with something you're saying education and health care some guy over there just said shipping jobs out of the country that to the stuff we part of it i mean it's not one thing i said it's not just one thing and there's a bunch of different reasons a part of it 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 clear sentence what the messages here. little going to 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 that which they feel like is the very strike the movement's.
9:26 pm
wrong the approaches that are shaking out of the us no want our website home safe and find out about the former u.s. marine who stood up to thirty policemen to become an intentional spokesperson for the all about wall street movement that and what's more i'll call for you. found also that ledger annoying to russia so his rocket that's all from a french space based in the tropics carrying the east first satellite navigation system only to become a rival to america's aaa. that should bring you off to date a quick look at the headlines coming your way shortly.
