margetts weiner scandal. find out what's really happening to the global economy because a report on. this week's top stories on r.t. . nato is leaving post libya saying its mission is done but a new government is concerned it won't be able to control the heavily armed population that's been left behind. the leaders signed off a massive deal to save the eurozone the critics only see it as another delay to an endeavor to pastor free. america and to corporate protests to suffer snowstorms and pressure from new york to california hundreds arrested and one activist critically injured.

to remember russia's. reopens after a six year no expense spared renovation with an exclusive grand god. there it's one pm here in moscow you're watching our weekly news review welcome to the program well this week saw nato officially announce the end of its aerial campaign in libya starting from next month the country's interim leadership will take control of all security responsibilities they're also tasked with rebuilding the country as well as preventing gulf era military stockpiles falling into the wrong hands of tall order and a nation flooded with weapons and he said only reports. the war is over but the weapons are fully loaded. human rights

watch has expressed grave concern about leftover are in libya their number one fear warehouses thought to hold ground to air missiles which could in the wrong hands take down passenger aircraft it's through made so i mean two allies in the region which these weapons have been flooding libya and also libya is quite world country anyway the population has has quite a lot of light weapons in its possession and those like my parents are becoming a heavy burden on the national transitional council now relying on an army of former rebels for security and we try to control the benz i'm going to check if there is somebody who has work and we ask him if he has a thursday show for this we are not. checkpoints have been set up across tripoli to check that those carrying weapons have proper documentation and those who do have the paperwork are being called on by the

national transition committee to return their arms the question now is what are they doing and what does that mean up for pulse gadhafi libya and its stability and now as you can see is being secured here everything is under control and the only one would think that we will make some mechanism how to give the weapons what we see something very different i ask this has commander what the plan is to disarm the population. i swear i don't know if. you know that it was just at the theater of the sea. and a makeshift arms collection center that covers one neighborhood in the capital we are shown this. through these are the weapons people brought to me today not many. walk down one block in tripoli and you'll see twice as many firearms. do

you know how many weapons there are in the gear i tend to slaughter to have incentives i think everybody have a weapon some think the flow of arms in the country could spell disaster ahead in the vacuum after gadaffi and post revolt chaos as groups fight out vicious fattal's from power. what you have now in libya is schools of armed factions who have no respect for each other and who have no respect for me the actually i believe opportunistically used may fail to achieve some aims and nato has been foolish enough to go along with this so i think what we're going to see now is a intensification of the civil war between increasingly the factions which have overthrow of the gadhafi regime with many libyans not yet ready to say a farewell to arms the empty sea which could only be good daphne with nato help is now asking the alliance to continue its mission

a vivid indication of just how unstable the country is and he's now a r t tripoli but now that nato is wrapping up in libya the organizations chief describe the operation is one of the most successful in the it says history but it's patrick hayes a reporter for the online magazine spiked says nato had no strategy other than regime change. what we see here more than anything else is opportunism of the worst possible sorts from western political leaders who are effectively trying to rewrite history throughout this entire conflict and to give the impression that they have some kind of strategy they were completely disorientated completely reacting to events rather than directing them the transitional council broadly have been cherry picked five nato these are people that effectively don't pop it of the west that have been put in there because they are kind of safe representatives because the west fears you know what might actually happen if the libyan people actually try and take the democratic initiative for themselves affectively the n.c.c.

has become quite dependent upon western leaders for guidance and i think that's really kind of problematic in many ways because again they're not genuinely representing the libyan people and their particular interests they're orientated instead towards the west and their interests. but it's thought that colonel gadhafi is most influential son saif al islam has for it and is there currently looking to hunting self over at the international criminal court he's reportedly used the spokes person to make contact with the hague to deny charges of crimes against humanity for some experts putting it off his son on trial is the last thing some western leaders want to see i bet it expects. to some moammar gadhafi was a man who knew too much secrets which will supposedly be buried with him i think that there were tremendous sighs of relief or older capitals in western europe this is somebody who cut all sorts of deals with the french and also the

british and the italians and to a certain extent the americans as well i think they did not want him put on trial for any research and i am not that surprised that he was captured alive if you very quickly ended up here at effie's return from diplomatic cakes are was spectacular hugs handshakes and kisses from the heads of countries which denounced him good after he's now silenced but the suspicion around those who laid out the welcome mat is far from buried and gone for years will do his group three seasons with it but the dealing with him has cost a lot of additional. will go away obviously because the situation was mission probably grew or. believe it was jewish with brazil or whoever it is then british prime minister tony blair was instrumental in good daffy's

rehabilitation bringing him in from the cold in two thousand and seven that play didn't lead empty handed trade between them flourished so did the cozy relationship there were six more secret meetings after blair left office his people denying they were about releasing the local. chama apple basket i'm a granny britain would lose its lucrative libyan deals i regret myself and obviously that gadhafi was put should he should have been said to the international criminal court put all the trial forced all it's a question through all the terrible things he did and if it cabbage the temporary world lose the previous regime to leave his task. we need to know. what is darby. with. some details of the murky dealings have already emerged claiming the reputation of one of britain's leading universities the london school of economics agreed to contracts to begin acting regime worth over two million

pounds to educate hundreds its future civil servants the director was forced to resign and now the university of tripoli is demanding the money back french leader nicolas sarkozy was never shy in creating a death even letting in pictures ten to nearly say palace apparently for bankrolling sarkozy's path to the presidency so says this man the one who could still tell all the. sarkozy must give back the money he took from libya to finance his electoral campaign we funded it and we have all the details and are ready to reveal everything. saif al islam gadhafi son and key right hand man reportedly ready to surrender to the war crimes court site is going to have low information and now i think we're so used there tony blair intervened form to help him get his dodgy ph d. degree from the london school of economics one. degree or kerry was plagiarized there's a lot of things that have gone on there so you knows about saif gadhafi is wanted

to answer for his own actions in libya is drawn out battle for control but it's what he could reveal about the diplomatic deals with his father that's keeping the western power plays sweating after bennett r.t. london. in his first interview with the western media since syria's uprising began . actions against his regime could transform syria into another afghanistan his comments came after the un secretary general once again condemned the country's violence calling for the repression to end and the arab league also urged us to end the civilian death toll of three thousand killed and the rest since march ministers are going to meet syrian officials later today to press for dialogue between the government and the opposition some protests as calling for a no fly zone over the country support their claims but this isn't a syrian writer and democracy campaign. it's

a draw for the population doesn't want a military solution to the crisis. we're against military intervention whether to date tomorrow or in ten years time even if the regime was to ny late every one of us would still be against military intervention we fight for freedom and we don't want to add external slavery to our domestic want we don't want it to become a part of the struggle between the international and internal forces syrians are peaceful they want to progress under conditions of freedom and development and they don't want to turn into a concentration camp polygon for larger countries. well still ahead this hour social unrest against inequality. thousands of israelis are back on the streets protesting the government spending they say they're not getting enough but the military is getting too much. and the embattled wiki leaks web site has been imported suspend its activities details on the stories in just a few minutes. well you leaders reached

a long awaited deal on thursday to try and save greece on the euro zone from collapse the measures include writing off the percent of greek debt that lies in european banks so they can cope with any future losses expanding the build up to one trillion euros after the summit in brussels french president nicolas sarkozy said allowing greece to join the euro ten years ago was a mistake according to got to be rather of britain's speirs alliance and the rescue deal fix the problem because greece is too far gone it's almost like one of those nineteen eighties comedy is where the somebody giving a. great speech who then keeps getting up and carrying on it's it's something which . the fundamentals were there to be seen twenty twenty five years ago they were supposed to be a sixty sixty percent debt to g.d.p. ratio before state qualified in the first place to join the euro and now it's being

seen as an achievement if managers get to get down to twice that long to the ticking time bomb bailout as a rule of thumb unless they're there to achieve a set end with major reforms as a reform don't work i don't see within this package not really through the fifteen or so pages of the document and there are some aspirations and a lot of aspirations in there but in terms of concrete proposals a little thin on the ground. europe's got to find the money its first stop is china the bailout fund chiefs visited the country to try to persuade it to help finance a huge rescue beijing or so for fallen short of making any promises and economists there believe china will tread carefully for the mistakes made by leaders in tackling their problems. china will join the band of all the saviors project i know will not be our white knight in this regard because the understanding is that it is those individual countries who are having the problem will be also their problem

solvers in the first place and then what will be the neighboring countries or the community of the of the eurozone can come up with a specific solution in which kind join to help china is not very satisfied satisfied with of. those that the austerity plan didn't come on the right time and there are still the poor between different stakeholders within the within this format. on the other hand the indecisive is the slow pace in of the members particularly those who are leading members in solving those issues so that really saves several taj a number of people in terms of their patients to come up to the rescue plan. well to the u.s. now with police in denver have moved into the camp of the occupy wall street protests arresting those who refused to leave comes just hours after

a massive standoff pepper spray and tear gas fired into the crowd this particular scene least dispersing a crowd of activists meanwhile in the states of tennessee and california meaning fifty people were arrested and squad swept through their camps with little tents tables and other belongings the movement has already been tested by snow storms and brought it across conditions expected to hit america's east coast this is a new york getting ready to stand and this is the core if you strip them of their power supplies i think it's going to change you can't wants you know breasts coming winter rocking the shape of determination. peaceful nationwide movement turned violent overnight in oakland. police attacked protesters with tear gas stun grenades. flash bombs and rubber bullets we had been there for weeks we had been taking care of ourselves there's been no incidents with the police and

they came in one of the most terrifying shows of force that i've ever seen in my entire life and they came in and they either flushed everyone out of the camp or rest of them and then they began to systematically trample all of that sets them apart and this need people really really angry a former u.s. marine an iraq war veteran was seriously injured by a tear gas canister that police fired at him. footage of the wounded veteran and police brutality spread quickly the shock of it galvanizing the nation and the occupy movement across the country i heard google says the company received requests from local law enforcement agencies to remove you tube videos of police brutality they did not comply the stronger of course of the response five establishment the stronger the movement will get the larger the protests will become the protesters through these past six weeks of being careful not to taint the movement's reputation with violence by

a march roast report suggests that this movement has been almost entirely peaceful but some in the u.s. media use the night of violence you know close to portray the protesters as radicals and more violence from the occupiers a lot of these people are professional educators a good number of these people are radicals no doubt about it you might ask how radical was this elderly woman in a wheelchair who was tear gassed by police or jasper father of two who's working on his ph d. at the university of california berkeley they you know they characterize you know it's the. perspective of the movement in marjah. and radical and fringe in order to discredit it this movement really is about all americans it's not just about people that have a story we've been poor this is about now it's to the middle class that is starting to feel the impact of corporate greed that has run this country for so long as the movement grows bigger and more structured it's becoming harder to ignore the

message of the campaigners who call themselves the ninety nine percent and protest against corporate crime and government complicity protesters tens march through and throughout the country there will be more the movement is only expanding several weeks ago police crackdown on protesters with pepper spray this week it was here gas and stun grenades protesters now want to hit big business where it hurts a general strike next week demanding banks and corporations shut down for a day but will the police response be an even more brutal crackdown i'm going to check our reporting for washing our teeth. what are some ahead for you this hour russia's cultural kingpin reopens. the bolshoi even if they've made new book theater lovers had been waiting for as moscow's landmark theater and build its first performance in sixty years after massive repurposed amounts. to

israel now where tens of thousands returned to the streets of tel aviv to vent their anger over social inequality and government spending policy that's less than two months since the country witnessed an initial wave of protests t's'pol mostly reports. the last demonstration back in september in early september sold a million people come to the streets of the country to organize it was satisfied with their turnout and after that a lot of the protesters many of them are university students turned to classes and things had to take a little bit of it out but said he now we have seen is not only attention on what is happening internally fearful of the israeli air force has also known strikes on southern gaza five members of the islamic jihad organization have been killed the organization that is one holds a sponsible for a grad missile that was fired into israel earlier in the we be concerned here and go talking to people is that this story of social demonstrations will now be missed

by many in the international community as it focuses on what is happening externally and certainly the mainstream international media is making a lot of what is going on in gaza to the detriment of what is happening here and with me to talk about this is nicholas simmons who is one of the are so sure posted his nicolette why are you back on the streets after a two month trial. knesset the parliament is returning to his recess i just hope that they'll reconsider their budgetary considerations the problem has been that the budget considerations have been about parties and politics they've been a valid reasoning of the tycoons seem to control everything we want the budgetary considerations to consider just the general good of the country here in israel it's very very important to realize we are not in economic recession a problem isn't that we don't have enough money problem is that it's being mismanaged the government decisions about what to do the money is bad but those that are. thirty when you hear the cries of people here and we need

a slogan is the people demand of social justice people here saying that the government can do what it wants to detract attention but they certainly will not give up on what they say a very legitimate demands. of course there was. well for more news exclusive footage and analysis you can visit our website at www dot com disagree for to what you can find online right now the nationalist shadow over germany is the country's leading right wing party calls for immigrants to be sure. why this dangerous rhetoric seems to be attracting growing support also online. one of the twentieth century's most of the tourist get rich quick schemes is back it's not the pyramid project wiping out the savings of millions of us are still plenty of investors willing to open their wallets once again more at a party dot com. on monday the whistle blowing web site wiki leaks was forced to temporarily suspend operations its founder julian assange

there were other very beginning of the situation questions about. tension members of the u.s. government had suggested or asked companies like amazon which was the first to take action against wiki leaks because they were hosting the site and what they may have been asked by individuals within the u.s. government so. what is one of the issues is there are really any rules regarding what companies can can or cannot do with their customers companies are generally entitled to reject customers if unfortunately wiki leaks was forced to close down that we would see other sides seeking to do the same kind of thing and getting around the restrictions of wiki leaks writes. the central asian country of kurdistan he said let in its first president since the bloody uprising that toppled for many women back here last spring the front runner as the country's former prime minister well as many promises to bring stability and prosperity to the nation current interim. he's not running for the top job these elections signal
