the sacristan pm here in the russian capital this is r.t. heavily colonel gadhafi is most influential son is looking to have them self over to the international criminal court where he's wanted for war crimes saif al islam claims he's anisette and is threatening to expose details of his father's dealings with western leaders if he appears in the dock r.t. or bennett explains. to some market jeffrey was a man too much secrets which will supposedly be buried with him i think that there were tremendous sighs of relief all over capitals in western europe this is somebody who cut all sorts of deals with the french but 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 reason and i am not misled is that surprised that he was captured alive if you very quickly ended up dead return from diplomatic saw was spectacular hugs

handshakes and kisses from the heads of countries which denounced him gadhafi is now silenced but the suspicion around those who laid out the welcome mat is far from buried i don't fear to his grave with it but the. dealing with him is constant and it. will go way over seriously because the situation was fishing the proving cruel tricks that men are a romantic lead to a situation as it were through veterans then british prime minister tony blair was instrumental in get deaf mutes rehabilitation bringing him in from the cold in two thousand and seven but played didn't lead empty handed trade between them flourished so did the cozy relationship there was six more secret meetings off the player left office his people denying they were about releasing them locally boma abdel baset al mcgraw he or britain would. lose its lucrative libyan deals i regret

myself enormously that gadhafi was but should he should have been shown to the international criminal court put all the trial forced to questions for all the terrible things he did and if it davidge the contemporary world lose all previous regimes lead is tough and we need to go. walk his dog. with people 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 a contract to begin acting regime worth over two million pounds to educate hundreds of 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 good daffy even letting him pitches tend to nearly safe palace apparently for bankrolling sarkozy's path to the presidency so says this man

the one who could still tell all that because he had never had 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 saif is going to have low information on that i think was so huge that tony blair intervened formed to help him get his dodgy ph d. degree from the london school of economics one. degree or apparently was plagiarized so there's a lot of things that have gone on that 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 is keeping the western power players sweating after bennett r.t. london. live in resident fled the city of certain days before colonel gaddafi was

killed there and he claims nato has committed atrocities during its intervention which only helped to destabilize his country. they used a very possible thing to do to make this so-called the revolution successful they used gunships. helicopters they used fighters all sorts of weapons that the. disposal so they. get. this video isn't successful so they've killed so many people to exceed in this operation which i i don't think it's a success because if it was a success of the libyan would have been so happy about it i doubt it very much there's a big divide in libya there's a huge gap. between libyans. i mean parts or partially because of interference partially because of let's be

honest and say partially because of gadhafi. but but the way they killed gadhafi the way they treated him the way they bombed my city. which i have a lot of civilians inside it who were killed as well i mean this just. generates anger and generates revenge. which in the future would be the fuel of another war in libya which i think it will be sooner or later or less nato winds up its intervention in libya it's leaving behind a country full of weapons in the hands of people with a shady past stay with r.t. for our special report on the ground in an hour's time as we reveal how some former rebel commanders have no clue how to tackle the current problem. syria's

president is warning western nations that intervening in his country will cause an earthquake that will tear the middle east but told britain's sunday telegraph newspaper that international involvement. could turn his country into another afghanistan his comments follow the u.n. chief's latest call for the repressions to end after a weekend clashes have a reported fifteen lives there are readers also weighing in with strong criticism and we're going to syrian officials later on sunday the u.n. believes more than three thousand people have perished and the rest since march but this is a syrian writer and democracy campaigner michel kilo most people there don't want a military solution to the crisis. or against military intervention whether today tomorrow or in ten years time even if the regime is 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 law 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 a poly gone philology countries. brian becker from the u.s. based antiwar coalition answer believes that unlike libya syria is too strong for the alliance to intervene and that's why the west wants to spark a civil war to bring about regime change. for using the same lingo the same scenario the syrian opposition is borrowing a page from the playbook for libya they know that they can come to power only with the advance with the support with the intervention through multiple means of the nato powers of the western powers and i think what we can tell the syrian people is look at what happened in libya the issue of a no fly zone sounds like go a way to defend civilians it's really a way to begin the war to begin military operations against the syrian air force or

air defenses and i think the first and this is the plan of the obama administration is not direct military intervention but to promote a civil war inside of syria i think they realize that the syrian government is substantially stronger militarily and within the arab world as compared to could offie but they can use the human beings who have grievances valid or not to be the human material for a civil war and i think the u.s. government officials signaling the syrian opposition and the syrian president that they should learn the lesson of libya is a clear message begin the civil war they want to weaken syria first as a as a prelude to a more direct intervention for regime change that's still to come this hour on r t another outbreak of violence in the middle east were reported how a deadly exchange of fire between israel and gaza has overshadowed a peaceful basque protest at government spending and television. scores of

these past six weeks of being careful not to taint the movement's reputation with violence by and large most reports suggest that this movement has been almost entirely peaceful but some in the u.s. media use the night of violence you know clinton 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 you know they characterize you know. the perspective of the. marginal and radical and fringe in order to discredit it this moment really is about all americans it's not just about people that have 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

slayer if. the palestinians are yet to receive the hundreds of people from israel as part of the swap deal does it look as if the violence now could have heard that process. well it certainly does look as if the violence will play a role this has been one of the most deadly weekends here in gaza around israel of course several months now at least ten palestinians have been killed one israeli has also been killed and egypt brokered cease fire several hours infected with israel who broke that cease fire launching a strike on what it said was a cell that was planning to fly out into israel now all of the palestinians have said that they are willing to abide by a truce but israel must stop with its a strikes but as i'm speaking to you those airstrikes are continuing many government held an emergency session this morning sunday the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu said that the gazans must not taste to quote him i was old and this was reiterated by the israeli defense

minister he say we will do everything to protect our people. began back on wednesday when the islamic jihad palestinian group launched a grad missile into it as well the israelis responded and since then the violence has been escalating the israelis say that they hold hamas. but it doesn't matter to them which we can put. in the gaza strip is claiming responsibility but it's still worth noting that one of the concerns people have is that among the hundreds of palestinian prisoners who are still in israeli jails and who still need to be released as part of that prisoner exchange deal that saw one israeli soldier returned to israel in exchange for more than a thousand palestinian prisoners many of the palestinian prisoners who still need to be released belong to the democratic front for the liberation of palestine and that is one of the palestinian groups that has claimed responsibility for a number of these rockets that have been fired into israel in recent days so there

are many people here saying that this does jeopardize that prisoner exchange deal and that it will be almost a convenient excuse for these rabies not to release the hundreds of palestinian prisoners that it is still committed to release as. and of course up all of this is unfolding as some twenty thousand israelis filled a television last night protest that their government spending policies i mean you were there what was the mood like was their frustration. the violence reached its peak as these demonstrations were due to get under way and there was some concern that some of the demonstrations in fact would be canceled one demonstration was canceled in the megaton of which is not too far from the gaza border but certainly here in tel aviv there were more than twenty thousand people that took to the streets of tel aviv they were not surprised by the violence they say that this is something that has happened in the past and it is the government's way of detracting attention away from domestic problems and certainly if you look

at the international media coverage the international media was much more focused on what was happening in terms of security concerns and on israel's border with gaza and then on what was happening domestically and this is exactly what protesters say they say that they want money to not be spend so much on me on the defense budget cuts they have to be made so that more money can be spent domestically and. so to me this increase in violence and the government's response in terms of the fact that it is going to give gaza a harsh hand to tracks attention away from what people say is the ongoing situation where they have very real demands that are more often than not overshadowed by the security concerns all right thanks very much for that report our to live there from tel aviv thank you. well coming up in just over an hour simon israeli politician explains what exactly is hampering a peace settlement between television and the palestinians and also ahead for you

just buying time this is really not the bazooka everybody has been asking for i would describe it as water this of course prevents for the moment that we really get to it kind of thing as collision of the greek adept level which is now growing in the direction of hundred and eighty percent of g.d.p. but you cannot call this a structural resolution to the different greek problems they are a little bit afraid to really bite the bullet here because if you look at it closely there is only one solution for greece and the truth has been put on the table already several months ago that is for greece to leave the euro zone but that is a decision everybody's afraid of and what has for example not been discussed now but which is very much on the mind of several of the european leaders is that there is a huge problem brewing in portugal because this country is going down to greet the greek growth quite rapidly now so if one does the action today on greece one
