think that there were tremendous sighs of relief all over capitals in western europe this is somebody who cut all sorts of deals of kicking with the french but also to the british and the italians and to certain extent the americans as well i think they did not want him put on trial for any reason and i am not the slightest bit surprised that he was captured alive if you very quickly ended up there is a definite return from diplomatic exile was spectacular hugs and shakes 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 feel as well to his grave three seasons but the. dealing with him has cost efficiency of all will go way over seriously because that is also the situation was

3:06 pm
disposal so they can. get dirty and make this successful kill so many people who succeed in this operation wolf and i don't think it's a success because if it was a success and religion would have been so happy about it i doubt that very much there's a big divide in libya there is 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 it. 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
3:07 pm
which is in the future will be the fuel of another war in libya which i think it will be sooner or later. well as major winds up his intervention in libya is leaving behind a country full of weapons in the hands of people with a shady past you stay with this we have special force coming up shortly on the ground it's on a corner and i was time here as we reveal how some former rebel commanders have no clue how to tackle the gun problem right now. the folks from syria next. there the president's warning western nations that intervening in his country will cause an earthquake that will tear the middle east apart but charlotte told britain's sunday telegraph newspaper the international involvement could turn his country into another afghanistan his comments follow the u.n. chief latest call for the repression is to end after a weekend clashes claimed reported fifty lives the arab league's also weighing in strong criticism of the surge damascus to take the necessary measures to protect civilians the u.n.
3:08 pm
believes more than three thousand people perished and learned lessons march but this isn't syria right through democracy paid until killing things most people there don't want a military solution for the crisis. or against military intervention but it's a day to morrow or in ten years time even if the regime is to ny late everyone of us would still be against military intervention we fight for freedom and we don't want to add external slavery to our domestic one 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 pollock on philology countries. brian becker from the u.s. post antiwar coalition believes that unlike libya syria is too strong for the alliance to intervene that's why the west wants to spark a civil war to bring about regime change. and we're using the same lingo the same scenario the syrian opposition is borrowing
3:09 pm
a page from the playbook for libya they know that they can come to power only with the advance with the civil war 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 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 has compared to khadafi 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.
3:10 pm
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. still to come this hour on r t another outbreak of violence in the middle east we report for you on how deadly exchange of fire between israel and gaza as it was shouted a peaceful mass protest the government spending in television. for the scores of demonstrators supporting the occupy wall street movement have been arrested across the u.s. wired police in denver moved into telling activists and refused to leave earlier pleas shoes pepper spray to disperse the crowds at least sixty people were arrested in the states of texas oregon and california after police went in to force curfews removing protesters belongings it was nature though threatening demos in new york after the city there was hit by an unseasonable snow blizzard but the activists say
3:11 pm
they believe it withstand those are conditions in the weather that make their point i was garbage and you can report for you from washington the occupy protest is the serious in the nation. the 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 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 last them and then they began to systematically sample all of its nets put them apart and this new people really really angry a former u.s. marine an iraqi war veteran was seriously injured by a tear gas canister a police car and it had. footage of the wounded veteran and police brutality spread
3:12 pm
quickly the shock of it galvanizing the nation and the occupy movement across the country. 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 years that was from the stronger the movement will get out of the larger the protests will become the protesters through these past six weeks of being careful not to taint the movement reputation with violence but a march roast report suggests that this north has been almost entirely peaceful but some in the u.s. media use the night of silence you know pledge to portray the protesters as radicals and more violence from the occupiers a lot of these people are professional agitators 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 was working on his ph d.
3:13 pm
at the university of california berkeley they you know they characterized you know it's. a perspective of the movement as marjah. all and radical fringe you know order to discredit it this moment really is about all americans it's not just about people that have a story we've been well or this is about now it's true the middle class is starting to feel the impact of corporate greed that is when 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 hands march through and throughout the country there will be more the movement is only extending several weeks ago a 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 struck down for
3:14 pm
a day but will the police response be an even more brutal crackdown i'm going to check our reporting from last r.t. well if you're watching those couple we should note he was very close on the protests that are hitting the united states coast to coast i don't know and for more of our coverage. watching you know i'm going to go to our you tube channel to check out the chance which the occupy protesters are using to rouse the rallies across new york state with. israeli airstrikes on gaza have killed at least ten palestinians in response to rocket attacks on the jewish state that left one dead it's the worst outbreak of violence in weeks following a successful prisoner swap deal between tell of even hamas of his policy reports from israel. one of the concerns people have is that among the hundreds of
3:15 pm
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 the israelis not to release the hundreds of palestinian prisoners that it is still committed to release as part of their deal 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
3:16 pm
problems and certainly if you look at the international media coverage international media was much more focus from what was happening in terms of security concerns and on israel's border with gaza than on what is happening domestically here and this is exactly what protesters say they say that they want money to not be strained so much on the on the defense budget for cuts there to be made so that more money can be sustained domestically and certainly this increase in violence and the government's response in terms of the fact that it is going to give gaza a harsh had to tracks attention away from what people here say is the ongoing situation where they have very real demands that are more often than not overshadowed by the excuse of security concerns but he's middle east correspondent paula staying with. a court has sentenced a former israeli soldier to four half years in prison for releasing classified military documents some of the league files details military officials approving the assassination of palestinians in the west bank but those claims are bigger
3:17 pm
breasts legal experts told me but undermines israeli law. in this case a whistle blower blew a loud and disturbing whistle the military is violating international law and the directors of the israeli supreme court in carrying out assassinations in situations in which they are required to try to make an arrest and so the state attorney's office prosecuted the soldier but failed to seriously investigate the conduct revealed in the stock in its conduct which raises serious questions about rule of law and democratic system that pattern of behavior violating orders by the supreme court because of the supreme court says that it said you must try to arrest is part of a pattern of practice within the israeli system and it's something that's very disturbing because when the army does not obey the orders by the supreme court the supreme court is actually more reluctant to issue those orders because no court wants to issue orders that are going to be ignored and then of course you have a serious threat to the rule of law because in a democratic system the army is of course supposed to listen to what you just
