display inside a meat market fridge the slain former libyan leader moammar gadhafi has been buried his body was taken to a secret location in the desert to prevent his grave becoming a shrine for sympathizers or being vandalized only so now he is in tripoli keeping across the developments. first of all some libyans that we've been speaking to understand but barry we get down we are his secrets of his connections and dealings with the west which is very active in close relations really if you just look back a couple of years before many countries decided that he was the number one dictator and had to go with that so the whole world watching food in libya those brutal pictures that we saw over the weekend of how gadhafi was killed still argument over whether or not he was killed in crossfire as the m.t.c. says clearly the footage there makes it look like he was in fact executed it's a very strong statement but a lot of people when looking out by footage go as far as to say that an investigation is being promised by the end t.c. and other world organizations but the people we've been speaking to

a lot of them afraid to say it but horrified by the way gets out he was killed even those who despise him and his forty decade rule when we first heard news of get down to his death almost immediately nato officials and other european and leicester conklin's western countries basically said the buyout tobar thirty first they would be out today a request from the national transition committee for later for nato to say it won't grow so it does look like they're going to be in post gadhafi libya longer than the end of october an exact date has not been given there are a lot of weapons in this country many of them although again conflicting reports on how how these weapons were given out some say came from nato themselves there in the country there are huge warehouses we travel today are with some of the t.c. military if you call them a field commander who took us to checkpoints to see them checking for weapons and we're just talking about hand weapons here we're not talking about any kind of major arsenals in terms of hand weapons there are

a lot of weapons on the streets of tripoli and another thing we're not hearing a lot of talk from the n t c about their plans to rebuild the country what they're going to do infrastructure completely destroyed people are celebrating very much so in tripoli. cross the country but very few people it seems are really thinking about what the death is death really means for stability and the future of the bia the cars of liberation are loud and clear. looks like a state of euphoria here and everybody is happy and you know. even though there is no formal you know law and order but are they ignoring the price paid for freedom in libya some thirty thousand civilians are said to have been killed with four thousand still missing this house was one of nato's misses a single family lost five people including children in. their poll joy's top

government but no one toss it in who is going to rebuild my house who will compensate honester follows much of the country's infrastructure has been destroyed finding water is now a serious challenge in the capital and supplies and try to collect what they can. read them a family with six kids we knew what to do leave and to come here every day and get water is very difficult. they bombed the electric station in bed walid for ten days they haven't fixed the problem at least we can come here for now. but maybe not much longer. before the war libya could boast one of the best living standards on the continent with high life expectancy and low tide mortality rates but after months of heavy bombing and fierce fighting the country's social and economic achievements have been brutally reversed its people now betting on a heavily armed and inexperienced group to govern them through

a fresh start in the wake of destruction i'll be asked us not to reveal his face during my pay for saying this. that if you talk or see anything positive about gadhafi you will have serious problems with the rebels there is no government speaking out on to the end of you he tells me if people were truly happy about the end of gadhafi and the way he was killed there would be millions not thousands on the streets to get their free movies i'm sure some sixty to seventy percent of the country does not approve of the way gadhafi was killed we expected him to be tried as a prisoner of war not killed like what we are told a new libya there would be justice and he was the head of this country and there was no justice in the way he was killed i have no hope for the future but it's just the beginning don't you think that it could get better with time but things will take time to change in the country. i think there will be a lot of fighting in the future right now and jamal and some are there is fighting

going on between tribes and anyone with a weapon has power who can do what they want. so many celebrate this new era in libya's history people like me are quietly bracing for the worst. and he's now a r.t. tipperary. police in oakland california have a rest of seventy five occupy wall street protesters and torn down that tent camp in front of the city hall there police say no one was injured despite tear gas and rubber rounds being fired into the crowd the protest movement is gearing up more global rallies this week intended to coincide with the upcoming g. twenty summit these latest protests are aimed at pressuring world leaders to introduce a so-called robin hood tax in what they say is the virtually unregulated global casino or financial transactions result has made a point now reports it won't be easy to achieve. well six weeks into the occupy movement nearly one thousand unarmed activists have been arrested in new

york city. thrown to the ground beaten netted like flies and pepper sprayed. the n.y.p.d. east tactics have been harshly criticized yet the most profound and public condemnation recently came from u.s. marine sergeant shamar thomas while defending demonstrators in times square. tonight. the lone man that stood up to dozens of new york cops comes from a family of honor my step father he was he went to ghana stand in two thousand and six see my mother were actually in iraq the same time sergeant thomas completed two tours in iraq before returning to his homeland where he now aligns and self with the activists he says are being targeted by aggressive authority in uniform have

appreciation towards the marine that completed combat in baghdad but just began his battle against police brutality here at home sergeant thomas is. inspired. all military branches to join the anti wall street protests and roughly forty thousand soldiers from iraq by the years and its international grassroots movement may grow even mightier. artsy new york. footage shot by journalists. from the streets with occupy voicing. all the stories we're covering for you.

the news today. these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. today. the quest to pull the eurozone out of its debt spiral has hit another snag several key meetings aimed at forming a plan have been cancelled at a summit. heads of state will still meet but there's growing doubt over whether e.u. leaders can overcome the differences well cool folks the deputy chairman of the german parliament told me that he's urging europe to get off the financial rollercoaster as soon as possible. we want to solve the problem and i'm quite sure that we are on the right pass first of all we have to acknowledge we have to know that there is a lot of problems with greece crease is not really competitive at all and there is

a lot of money going into crease but i think at the end of the day we will find a suitable solution which will safeguard first of all the situation of other european countries because we have to ringfence other countries in case of any default and the german share is two hundred eleven billion and there will be no single euro's send more then the two hundred eleven billion it is create cannot pay back loans it stabs at all it will be there will be a certain haircut where talk about maybe sixty percent or even more and i see the euro as such is a good kind see the only problem we have is some countries in the euro zone but i have the feeling each and everybody has understood that they have to change and they are on the way to change and they are doing who forms which is necessary in order to have a smaller national debt. and as the situation in europe worsens the once for

medical unity of the european union is cracking and in a wave of euro skepticism sweeping the bloc. tell me why we should work to the age of seventy two or seventy three to pay for staff ross who lives in downtown athens jury trial fifty we shouldn't we're not going to it's the end well you can catch that full interview with me and john gaunt want to share your opinion on it all at r t v dot com. the high court in london has to hear a case over the use of uranium in hans weapons by u.s. led forces during the infamous iraqi battle of fallujah in two thousand and four this fall in a number of reports alleging their use was much more widespread than originally thought earlier i spoke to christopher busby who co-wrote two of those reports we found extraordinary high levels of counts very high levels of birth defects and we

also find a change in the sex ratio in the ratio of boys to girls which appeared to begin after the battle of fallujah and fall and what we found was a high level of uranium and that a high level of uranium was it from from depleted uranium. well though this was what was surprising it was not from depleted uranium it was actually slightly enrich uranium which was what it was it was fairly astonishing i mean one suggestion is that the people using this weapon have been covering their tracks because there's been a lot of talk about depleted uranium and its effects and so if you use slightly enrich uranium or not for the rain and then you cover your tracks and then you cannot be sued afterwards we found patents for direct to charge weapons and a new type of explosive which contains uranium powder mixed in with explosives in order to cause a very powerful directed charge and this is this is an anti personnel weapon which which answers the other question why they would have used such a thing in fallujah because there were no tanks in flew jet many of the ngos in the world have been busily trying to have depleted uranium weapons banned and of course

that is that's quite right they should be banned because they cause all these a face but of course then the military say well of course we didn't use depleted uranium and then inwardly laughing i guess because they've been using these new weapons which are not anti-tank weapons which are anti personnel weapons which are thermobaric weapons which cause huge pressure waves and collapsed lungs or char the victims and they've been a lot of very very peculiar injuries being discovered on modern battlefields that doctors have never seen before and quite and can't quite figure out. professor christopher busby talk to me a little earlier on r.t. now let's update you on some other international news this hour in our world update at least ten people were killed and dozens injured in clashes between yemeni government security forces and protesters in the capital sanaa in the province of tiny's that's despite the declaration of the cease fire between president ali abdullah saleh and his opponent has for months refused to step down after more than thirty years in power despite protests and international pressure.

could challenge psychos really billionaire bidzina ivanishvili is entering georgia's political battleground according to his lawyer that's frightened to make l. seconds really the president of eight years. when he said he's going to create a political party has gone into politics and he's starting to get ready for elections the government panicked they panicked so much they took away a vanished police georgian citizenship officials did point out that he had french citizenship as well which is against george law and that he might be deported he says it's politically motivated and is appealing the decision. our government has a way of accusing people of treason the authorities violate their power and then use their position as an excuse for their actions the georgian government has also raided a bank of vanish really owns the middle of money laundering designed and removed some of his security guards and arrested people close to him ivanishvili is famous

as one of georgia's richest businessmen he's funded the building of churches and theaters and now he's funding the return of a well known georgian satirical t.v. show the show's director says he has confidence in a banish really but he's still new to politics. he's learning how to be a politician he used to be a very significant businessman but now the methods he used in his business have to be changed because he's a public politician but he adapts very quickly. and he'll have to because while a vanish very himself is confident he'll win the next election many around him aren't even sure if he'll be in it. it's hard to tell if it's inner ivanishvili will be part of george's political future or not but it's easy to see his case as a metaphor for the overall state of politics here the walking him to for political force will be clear evidence of the democratic spirit that so often talked about in georgia it's not so often show tom watson r.t.

tbilisi georgia. no i'll be back with a look at our main news stories for in a few minutes from now but in the meantime r.t. talks to syria's foreign minister about what his government is doing to stop the bloody protests that started in march that's a special interview next week here. today

we're talking to syrian minister of foreign affairs mr vali don't muslim thank you for joining us. you expressed reserve at the last meeting of foreign ministers of arab states in cairo and the situation in syria where is the opposition welcomed them do you think the arab league has been playing a constructive rule. unfortunately due to the so-called arab spring some countries that had been playing a significant role in the arab league's operation are now busy with their own domestic issues and this doesn't help consolidated solutions hopefully this issue ation will be resolved in the short term and these countries will become official again in consolidating the common arab cause this is first do you think it would be reasonable to discuss a country's problems without its participation second a proposal was made at this consultative meeting to free syria's membership of the arab league this is very dangerous and most participating countries spoke against

this proposal how can one imagine resolving common arabic problems without syria. and thirdly this proposal contradicts the leeks charter as the board of the arab states leaders' has the power to suspend or freeze membership at this power was breached when making a decision on libya and we're all well aware of what happened then the un security council used the arab league's decision when adopting its resolution and then nato used this decision for its purposes when arabs to speak up with such proposals they understand the purpose of these actions which is to undermine what remains of the common arab cause might it was the lord the opposition states that the syrian leadership has little time left to implement the reforms announcement president bush on assert there saying that the syrian people are paying with their blood for delays in these reforms why is there such a do lane implemented in our nato nakba first of all there is no delay

on the contrary a universal reform program underway in syria will be implemented in a record six months compared to other countries including russia where reforms lasted for several years i repeat that this is a record short period of time. those who speak about reforms know that certain laws should be passed to see them through they include laws on political parties and parliamentary elections slated for next february there are also elections to local self-government bodies a law on the media should also be passed a commission has been set up to draft the country's new constitution. how fast should these things go these are crucial issues solutions to which will determine the face of the new syria a pluralistic and democratic country a model example to other nations in the region these hasty action reasonable these are serious problems that require serious approaches based on experience and international law judging from that i would say that the country's leadership is

not slowing down reforms and the deadline set by the syrian president are very short in less than six months the country will see these reforms carried out that is why i'm asking if the opposition really cares for the future of this country why it wouldn't begin dialogue and lay out some serious approaches to creating a new syria. as for the bloodshed let me ask you whether there's a regime anywhere in the world whose purpose is to kill its own citizens or rather isn't its direct purpose to protect its own citizens from terrorists we are confronted with armed terrorist groups who have nothing to do with reform these groups are being armed and financed from abroad every day syrian television reports new arrests of these groups members which are sowing terror what of ject is do they have other than how to earn more money and therefore we should differentiate the national opposition which is in favor of political and economic reforms from these armed groups by leader of the of god that it seems that turkey's close to

recognizing the national council how will syria respond if this takes place. but i don't want to get ahead of events but turkey knows the scope of syrian turkish relations we signed fifty intergovernmental agreements followed by growth in trade . cultural exchange the end goal is to establish strategic relations between the two countries we have been working towards this which in practice means that citizens of both countries can visit each other under a visa free regime hopefully we won't go as far as to destroy the results of all our efforts over the last ten years. but it was the it. could we move to a different subject now did damascus suit any preconditions before agreeing to receive palestinian prisoners it's known of the west has been putting pressure on syria for hosting the hamas leadership or did syria any specific conditions before agreeing to receive palestinians released from israeli jails are interested in your call we have to remember that syria has been part of the palestinian issue we

handed over the golan heights in an attempt to resolve the issue it's impossible to break this strong link between syria and the palestinian problem which is manifested both in our support for the resistance movement and in attempts to resolve the problem at regional and international levels therefore it's natural that there could be no conditional requirements. but i. strive for somalia australia if you want to use them you know we want to see you get a little money. if you want to have sex go and have sex. please
