a deputy was a man too much secrets which will supposedly in periods 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 in the slightest bit surprised that he was captured alive if you very quickly ended up getting a definite return from diplomatic exile it 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 long as the history you see with. the shooter dealing with his constant
7:03 pm
trisha's of all who go away for serious crimes that this was a situation was fishing the probably cruel trick sit near action ironically it was jewish bankers who were prove their innocence then british prime minister tony blair was instrumental in it happy's rehabilitation bringing him in from the cold in two thousand and seven that play didn't lead empty handed trade between flourished so did the cozy relationship there were six more secret meetings are to play left off base his people denying they were about releasing the local apple passing on the granny or britain would lose its lucrative maybe in deals i regret myself enormously but daffy was put should he should have been said to the international criminal court put all the trial forced all its questions for all the terrible things he did and if it cabbage diva contemporary world leaders all previous over she leaves tough and we need to know. what is
7:04 pm
it out day 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 get out the regime worth over two million pounds to educate hundreds this future civil servants a direct he was forced to resign and now the university of tripoli is demanding the money back french leader nicolas sarkozy was never shy in greeting good data and even letting him pitch his ten to nearly safe palace apparently for bankrolling sarkozy's party to the presidency so says this man they want you could still tell all the cars they have ever had sarkozy must give back the money he took from libya to finance his electoral campaign and we funded it and we have all the details. and a ready to reveal and. sign for
7:05 pm
a good happy son and key right hand man reportedly ready to surrender to the war crimes court so you've is going to have low information and i think we're so used that tony blair intervened for him to help him get his dodgy ph d. degree from the london school of economics when. he was plagiarized so there's a lot of the things that have gone on so you for gadhafi knows about so i'd get that he's wanted to answer or is 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. libyan resident. fled the city of syria's days before colonel gadhafi was killed there he claims that nato has committed atrocities during its intervention which only helped to destabilize his country. they used every possible thing to do to make this so-called revolution successful they used gunships
7:06 pm
they use a helicopters they use fighter is all sorts of weapons that the. disposal so they can. get there and make this kind of illusions successful kill so many people through to succeed in this operation moshtarak i don't think it's a success because if it was a success believe me it would have been so happy about i doubt that very much there's a big divide in libya there is a huge gap now between libyans. i mean parts or partially because of interference and partly because of let's be honest and say partially because of khadafi. but but the way they killed gadhafi the way they treated him the way they bombed my city you. have
7:07 pm
a lot of civilians inside it who were killed as well i mean this just. generates anger and generates revenge. which which is in the future would be the fuel of another war in libya which i think you will be sooner or later. as nato wraps up its intervention in libya it's leaving behind a country full of weapons. in our special report coming up in an hour's time when we reveal how some of the rebel commanders are struggling to tackle you keep the problem. and now on to israel where recent airstrikes on gaza have left at least ten palestinians dead the action came in response to rocket attacks on the jewish state that left one dead it is the worst outbreak of violence and months and follows a successful prisoner swap deal between israel and hamas parties publicly or brings us the details from tel aviv. one of the concerns people have is that among the
7:08 pm
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 return to israel in exchange for more than a thousand palestinian prisoners many of the palestinian prisoners who still need to be released along to the democratic front for the liberation of palestine and that is one of the seymour 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 is 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 see that this is something that has happened in the past and it is the government's way of detracting attention away from domestic problems in certain if you look at the international media coverage the
7:09 pm
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 here and this is exactly what protesters say they said that they want money to not be spent so much on the on the defense budget cuts they have to be made so that more money can be saved 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 hand detracts 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. there and staying with television where a court has sentenced a former israeli soldier to a four and a half year prison sentence for releasing classified military documents some of the leaked files a detail military officials are proving the assassination of palestinians in the west bank but those claims are being investigated. says vadra undermines
7:10 pm
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 stockings conduct with raises serious questions about rule of law and democratic system that pattern of behavior violating orders by the supreme court because of the supreme courts of the state that said you must try to arrest as 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 usual system
7:11 pm
tells them to do in an interview with a russian television station syrian president bashar al assad says he is willing to cooperate with all opposition parties that have emerged during the seven month uprising against his reign but he also raised questions about the true nature of the forces that are fighting against his regime. as you say we have hundreds of soldiers police and security forces among the dead were how were they killed during peaceful demonstrations or because some slogans being shouted no they were shot at and this means we're dealing with armed people who represent your position but above all i believe this question will be answered after the elections go off will you part is emerged and local and parliamentary elections will take place soon and this will give us an answer and show who exactly represents the people up with regard because of all we cooperate with all political forces will hold and. that emerge during the crisis because we believe that a corporation is

political agreements yet they seem to have the ability to shut down a website that some governments find troubling. it's it's very unclear exactly what the motivations for the power behind them and it is and it's a bit stupid unsettling because there were other very beginning of the situation questions about. tension members of the u.s. government jobs suggested or asked companies like amazon which was the first to take action against wiki leaks because they were hosting sites and what they may have been asked by individuals within the u.s. government so. that is one of the issues is that there aren't really any rules regarding what companies can can or cannot do what their customers companies are generally entitled to reject the consumers 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 rights. almost all the votes have been counted in kyrgyzstan's first presidential election since a bloody uprising toppled former leader coming back kiev last spring leading the
