international news live from moscow this is r.t. with me thanks for joining us libya's interim government says it's looking to hold elections within the next eighteen months the war torn country prepares to celebrate the day of liberation following the death of colonel gadhafi but the unclear circumstances of the former leader's death have sparked international calls for an investigation with every new piece of video constantly a deeper shadow on the official version that he died in crossfire his body is currently being kept in a chill of room in the shopping center in his ranch at one of the hot spots of the revolution to al same hundreds of libyans have been queuing for photo opportunities with the devoted body the failure to carry out a very well within twenty four hours is a blatant contravention of islamic law that interim government says it may be coop's to conduct these extended family archie's and he says now it has the latest from the leading counter so the n.t.s.b. is saying that you thought he was killed by a bullet will. also conflicting reports as to where exactly those shots were in his
10:02 pm
shot making the right side of his head in the left side of the head it's looking very shady and then this brutal video that went viral the mainstream media showing up 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 if he even fears that he's alive he actually goes and touches take quite some blood away and then there's a time and it seems that he was dead in the later which is 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 west and other countries that we've been very critical about neighbors mission here in libya odd that something needs to be done about an investigation the u.n. is planning on launching investigation in russia's foreign minister was very clear that russia and many of many countries and officials around the world feel like the
10:03 pm
way he was killed in these pictures that we saw were perhaps not the best possible way to go because. 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 also about the rebels captured members of our convoy has been repeated numerous times that nato claims 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 be shortly 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 gadhafi is body is they don't want to risk. roger rader now in misrata and already way beyond the
10:04 pm
twenty four hour mark how he had been very by muslim tradition the official liberation ceremony will take place in benghazi where you 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 the doubt few loyalists alone mostly celebrations have been taking place obviously officials the interim officials there worry 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 feel they can answer that question much hard so world analysts are certainly looking into what will often 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 do. the world community has begun to think what will be see happen here in the coming months and years. to some of the international community trying to
10:05 pm
get to the bottom of his death and leaks video could very well provide beyond say everyone's looking for their soul so you know we grabbed him in the streets some guy does want to take him away and that's what i showed on what's in the here and didn't chip so the same point as far as he didn't mind the idea of taking that kind of a lie and also flaunted it works because things and bloodied shirts and a gold ring on which the name of cadet his second wife and the date of the marriage had been engraved he was based a middle east expert shereen as your guide he sings the connell's death will open up an era of tribal and ethnic conflicts across india. the international community is calling for an investigation but they've been complicit and his guess casts a shadow on many things that cast a shadow on the m.t.c. to cast a shadow on the future of the country could ask help here's the tribes and the ethnicities together and what we're going to see only going to exhume months and
10:06 pm
years is massive trial and specifically ethnic divisions and very strong reactions between the libyans of african descent who have african cultures and leans arabic over just as well and even during this war it started in february and we've started to see those kinds of violent divisions between it and is that it's the people of louis up are in the middle of a war right now it's a civil war or it's an international war and people are dying civilians are dying they're being imprisoned they're not getting proper medical treatment and and they're the last people that anyone seems to care about so you know if the future is good we can't see it from here this is on c.n.n. still ahead here this hour double trouble britain faces or what emerges that poisoned former k.g.b. agent alexander different in cold ties with the country's intelligence services.

army soldier and a man in a wheelchair there crime not moving when the police officers told them to move even though they say they were simply trying to stand up for the first amendment freedom of speech rights to call attention to the corruption both in wall street and in washington now one of the biggest issues of the occupy wall street protests today is the heavy handed police tactics by the officers one protesters are simply they say making their voices heard trying to get politicians to listen to them in a country that they say no longer represents their democratic needs or democratic 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 there are they're starting small scale protests 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 perhaps that many of the protesters here have cited both to me and other reporters working for r.t.
10:09 pm
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 are concerning protesters here many of whom like to point out the fact that few people on wall street have been arrested or punished for. crimes while innocent civilians seem to be jailed for simply speaking simply stepping off a curb for example or marching in demonstrations that they say are constitutionally protected here in the legal system of the united states. reporting from new york our correspondents in america are going to call for demonstrations there for you and you can head to our twitter stream to get our dates on them so if one of her tweets she's losing confidence that police have surrounded union square in new york and it seems now that there is

10:12 pm
american his radio and he kauffman is watching the u.s. 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 younger is in the people's will. and the show is still going to go on i view that more and more people around the globe seem to share policy r.t. television. to have you go sour the passion behind the protest. look good model for the whole ball parties are big we want to do body. parties new york resident cory hoffman is there points out at water united thousands of people taking part in the occupy wall street movement. but right now finance ministers from all twenty seven european union states are meeting in brussels for more talks on the e.u. spiraling economic crisis which threatens to turn global europe remains split over a solution for greece's debt disaster and bailout with ministers saying banks raise

a political union when we do surveys as to whether people vote actual people out there you know that was behind in front of me or in the whole today whether they want a referendum on e.u. membership they say yes i'm afraid to say it's the most of the politicians here who also know about actually letting the people have their say i mean look the truth is that i think he increased singly in western democracies including the over european democracies and people want one thing and the down the politicians say mother i was very interesting that even when they're all referenda in the e.u. there was one on the constitution floor in france and there's one in the constitution in ireland and one in the netherlands and they voted no we don't want this but what happened to the politicians but i'm going regardless so as far as i'm concerned you know it's the people who should be marching up the say and we must get these messages across so the politicians this time they listen to the people. as an inquest into the death of former russian agent alexander litvinenko is

political activists dredger are things to go after the draw is a step forward for both countries but it doesn't mean america's influence in that region will land. very important milestone i think you're lucky in general i've been waiting for this the last eight years you want to hear this little you know your patience is all but it's all over or it is a major step in going to that 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 on sixteen thousand. although all the iraq you politically. keeping some you streamers to carry in the new iraq you're using new. just u.s. weapons here but they are against granting them immunity because there have been a long list of crimes that were committed here killing iraqi civilians with no
10:21 pm
accountability for the u.s. intervention and occupation of iraq has been disastrous there was not because. there is nothing to look back at. that should not have happened it's a disaster of death and destruction and the us has been a part of iraq's problem in the last 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. to a truck. national headlines for you this hour in northern course of a major peacekeeping try to remove the time but ethnic serbs that have been stalled by hundreds of people also both sides sat in front of sixteen world blocks to prevent foreign troops pushing through the barricades and peacekeepers and local said been leaders up to israel to achieve a breakthrough during talks next on saturday arcades in the region were billed by local serbs back in july when the ethnic albanian government attempted to take

brings into focus the health of saudi arabia's aging of all elite especially king abdullah is now eighty seven. as support for the occupy wall street movement is growing across the world to include even iran and north korea many are wondering what exactly has united so many people in protest there we have it star own resident reporter in new york went to the center of the action to ask people what brought them. a month into the occupy wall street movement is there a unified message 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 were we're just over a month old. october seventeenth was 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 movements
10:25 pm
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 tension a.d.d. world and they need a sound but are there often that the current dominant paradigm and we're looking to give examples of what alternative paradigms could exist i tried to come in for a couple of bottles 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 the feel like it is unified i think it is ultimately this is a big battle of ideas there's fifteen different worldviews for square foot. people
10:26 pm
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't 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're saying education how cast on by over there just said shipping jobs out of the country to their stuff with part of it i mean there's not one thing i guess that it's not just one thing and there's a bunch of different reasons that i'm part of 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 tensions but the messages here. political and economic reform the whole of both parties i think we want to 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 very strange the movements.
10:27 pm
and who and approaches that are shaking out the us the entire website offered a home to find out about the former u.s. marine base to down to if there's a policeman to the council and social spokes person to the occupy wall street movement that it's more. like trying to read nor interventions so use rockets from my french space race in the tropics carrying things by satellite navigation system aiming to become a rival time right here. coming up next the kaiser report with mark for face it i'll update you on the headlines if you mom.
