eight pm tuesday night here in moscow welcome if you just joined us you're watching r.t. with me kevin oh in our top story tonight the birthplace of the anti corporate occupier movement in new york has been raided and cleared out by police hundreds of protesters who've been camped out in zuccotti park for two months have been evicted officers reportedly used force to kick out some of the activists with witnesses suggesting pepper spray and tear gas was also used authorities removed all tense citing health and safety concerns the protests to say that's just an excuse to sever ties or massive demonstration planned for thursday but is more important as the latest for you from new york. here the mayor michael bloomberg said the first amendment checks free speech but not used. to occupy a park and this is why it will unite mayor that week. because you return peace you

can take part they cannot brain any of their attempts charts or sleeping back however a lawyer who worked the occupy asked to stay at work order has been issued to allow the protesters to remain leaping eggs their tents back to zuccotti park are ordered to report to new york city judge said that mayor bloomberg bus show cause for you to get king the occupy wall street protesters from zuccotti park early tuesday morning when hundreds of police officers dozens of them in bright peer moved into zuccotti park it was somewhat of a secret keep the activists were not foot notified and they were this when the cops came in with flood lights and sirens manjit that all of those occupiers that have been living there about two hundred or so we've immediately and removed their property from the park and i'd witness says he saw cops using pocket knives to

critical thing that tends to some people were sleeping and he's yelling program to get out of many of the protesters did leave peacefully many of them who were shot they didn't realize what was happening what was going on hundreds of cops were surrounding them but other activists did resist some tied themselves to trees and there was a video that's been seen and shown in film of some of their resisting octave is being manhandled by the police least seventy people thus far have been arrested and some eyewitnesses say that sound cannons were used by the n.y.p.d. to try to evacuate anybody any of the occupier because that were reservists cable to leave the park this is maybe rally even more support for the for the for the movement but at the same time it has been a huge blow. and occupy activists who was in new york at the time of the police raid says that the authorities heavy handed response has been infringement of civil

liberties i saw was essentially wall to wall police and cops in riot gear. i've never seen so many police cars in my entire life i think that americans have no choice try to essentially raise these grievances with government because our government has been controlled by factions you know every institution in society from the press and this it expired to our elections are controlled by john many factions that are essentially you know creating a neary isn't abuses of a government that preys on the resources and the spirits of citizens this is the state of our democratic republic it is in decay of this continued bhupen tally on the part of the cocks especially coming out to a and you know not to even arresting you know members of the press not allowing any of the press to film what was going on i think that it's a century going to create that wanted to send in this country because this is not

an ideological protests this is a protest that is based on people actually experiencing the consequences of a government that preys on the resources and the spirits but citizens you can arrest an idea you know occupy to meet individually is the civic square in america and i doubt americans are going to continue through our civic square to be taken from us. well here are two we're keeping a very close saw on the nationwide standoff with america's occupy protesters and the police our correspondents are following developments from the same we've been updating you over the past couple of months this is our tease twitter feed for the latest information first hand as soon as our correspondents get it to you and you get the most recent footage of approaches following on for you chief chance.

moscow's hosting high profile members of syria's opposition in the latest attempt to words them towards talks with the country's government it comes a day after the kremlin slammed western countries for backing syrian anti regime forces in their attempts to overthrow president bashar al assad has paid for all of the reports. well what we've heard from the syrian opposition delegation today is very interesting indeed they said that they would like to see a u.n. resolution put in place now this u.n. resolution would not be a resolution allowing any foreign military intervention that is something that they are vehemently against they share that stance with russia this would be a u.n. resolution allowing observers on the ground in the country and allowing of service

to to see what's going on at the end bottled cities that are still under siege in syria now they also said that they would continue to keep on calling for the resignation the stepping down of president of russia and they called on the international community to help with us. we have said that we want to give a political solution to the crisis a chance and this is also the demand of the syrian people therefore we're calling on those countries that want a peaceful outcome to put pressure on the president to step down we do want to prevent any military involvement in the syrian crisis intervention repetition of the libyan scenario we are in favor of a peaceful solution through negotiations. on saturday the arab league announced that they were going to suspend syria from their organization now that suspensions expected to be rather stunted a meeting on wednesday in morocco this really leaves assad and syria

alone in the arab world we heard from the king of jordan king abdullah saying that if he was in assad's position that he would be considering stepping down himself. the new states syria had be would be suspended from the arab league was greeted with this may here in russia the story minister sergei lavrov saying that it was counterproductive to add ongoing discussions of peace and to getting people to the table to talk this out and saying this by suspending see. from the arab league that they give the opposition parties to try and implement regime change instead of trying to talk this out and finding a peaceful solution no the news that syria would be suspended from the arab league cause thousands of people to take to the streets of damascus and other cities across the country protesting against this we saw some protests outside of the

embassies of saudi arabia and qatar two nations which voted to suspend syria for milly's the people of syria and damascus saying clearly thinking that the suspension of syria from the arab league not the way to bring about peace in the country when well and secure more forces inside syria are also turning up the heat on the regime dozens of state security officers have been gunned down by suspected army defectors in the south of the country but in a specially bloody day indeed for syria with nearly one hundred killings reported across the country the u.n. no estimates more than three and a half thousand have lost their lives in the uprising let's get some more analysis on. going to. director of the sea for middle east studies in beirut mr jaber thanks for being on the line with us members of the syrian opposition say they want a peaceful solution to the conflict out there how exactly are they planning to bring that about when this deadly fire is going on both ways.

let me let me talk first about the decision of the arab league which came in correct in my opinion. foreign affairs. dire a big. problem and made the problem much mark complicated and i think syria doesn't deserve this and we have to yes. i was going to touch on a little bit later but i mean how how much how much notice is the syrian regime going to take of that anyway. i think it's very dangerous very very complicated and that this decision is very dangerous. city of course and syria and of course and i think if the arab league initiative. i don't think it will succeed and succeed it's very difficult and the failure of this initiative is very

dangerous and i think it would go too far to bring the problem to the international scene and and maybe to the. security council. that's next here on state of sort of and i think let me say something here russia is the position of russia is very logical and russia is trying to compare syria to go ahead quickly with forth and at the same time see russia is threatened our position to go without any harm and to make a dialogue with the syrian regime because there's still time i think for the syrian regime to my career for life and to solve the problem in syria but i put with the help of. that officer and other friends but i put my first question back to this is to start at home as well doesn't the first question she was if you recall members of the opposition saying they want this peaceful solution to the thought as we're

hearing is coming from both ways so are they going the right way about. i think to stop the military action we have to stop it from both ways when they ask the syrian government to stop military operations who will convince the surgeon to stop their military or their terrorist operation against the execution in syria the problem in syria the problem with syria let me tell you that there is a lack of mass media to syria's cannot could not until today convince the whole world that they do have a third term and the international community is not with them for about what's going on in syria i think into syria will open their doors to the mass media they would show the whole world that there is who are fighting with not only their

government but the institutions of the state and they are killing people and the government of syria must use your security forces to stop those attacks that's it's not clear yet i think i think russia i think syria must approve this and must go i hate them for access not only our own under military acts. which is not here for the international community the other acts is that a forum like russia a conference and advice syria to go ahead with the political reform and to quickly and that turned arcs like we said to bring the mass media and force or the force acts must syria and the diplomatic movement. part of their friends you know to come face to international community that there

is a real problem and you have to solve it you said you know if this violence though continues this standoff continues how close is syria to full blown civil war tonight. yes you said something wrong i don't think there is union city i will collapse quickly if they will continue you know and this and if there is no solution for this problem in case gilkey will create a buffer zone between turkey and syria which is very dangerous and they are talking about that today and and the next few days i think the spiritual will be more and more complicated their vision is syria is not a levy a it's not the same would not have to compare with him would we can each see the year highs very strong guarded me and you and dr any and believes that the security of the state with the security of the regime they come together and if

they are trying to divide the syrian army i think it's very difficult and syria to me and i hope not have a civil war and this case believe me four countries three countries at least in the middle east could be affected by affected by this civil war given on jordan and iraq and this is what the americans want to divide the country and that is an end to the smallest states that's what we call it the new all the middle east. talking about it started in iraq and two thousand and four two thousand and three and now they are trying to do it in syria and merely iran and jordyn i think is very dangerous indeed we get your message and we think we see the picture you're painting there live from beirut. director of the center for middle eastern peace thank you so much. if britain is in pole position to take the lion's share of the spoils of libya's vast postwar oil reserves london city executives have been

offered lucrative oil and gas contracts as the national transitional council touting business opportunities to foreign investors our correspondent laura smith reports. the effort to topple gadhafi was an effort that was initially legs by the u.k. and also france and the u.k. sent in its air force and it also used its navy to make a naval blockade around libya and now the national transitional council in libya is saying that its friends will be rewarded and these are not just words we've seen a couple of trips in the last two weeks or so earlier this month the u.k. department of trade and industry of working party to libya to have a look around see what needed doing what needed rebuilding and now the national transitional council has come to london to hold a meeting with top city business executives to drum up interest of what they're calling massive opportunity to rebuild libya so what we're seeing really is this

direct correlation between participation in the effort to oust exactly and contracts that are awarded afterwards we know that libya has the biggest oil reserves in africa but this seems to give more fuel to that argument seems to make it more obvious that the constant professions of this humanitarian goals seem to have been made a mockery of by this and as someone said to me last we form you know we destroy and now we get the contract to rebuild the place and that there is this seemingly direct correlation as i say and we also heard at the time of reports of evidence of ordering the full nato even got involved in this we've heard reports that the national transitional council told the french that if they sent in their will planes then the libyans eventually awards to tell the french oil company thirty five percent of all contracts up for grabs and for the u.k. of course which which is looking like it could be one of the main players in this

this is turned out to be excellent business it's very astute how much the the war cost the u.k. but it was sort of circled around half a billion dollars now and now we're looking at thirty billion dollars in contracts up for grabs over the next ten years so it certainly looks like an excellent investment. we bring up to date some of the news stories from around the world tonight reported u.s. drone strike in pakistan's north waziristan region has killed six suspected militants intelligence officials say the drone fired two missiles on an alleged insurgent base in the middle area the u.s. claims several groups linked to assaults against nato forces in afghanistan are located in the region because that is tribal areas have been hit by more than sixty american drone attacks since the start of the year. most rebels in west bengal india have called off a month long cease fire the group ended the true self government failed to meet their demands for withdraw forces from the region same thing for the country's

indigenous tribal people in the rural poor rebels of a violent history in india just last year they killed over one hundred people in a train crash by allegedly sever ties in the rails. the amount of radioactive contamination in the soil in northeastern japan has exceeded levels considered safe for farming the massive earthquake and tsunami triggered an explosion in the fukushima power plant in march which then allowed radioactive material to leak into surrounding areas food production regions likely to be severely affected now. a mysterious broadcast coming from somewhere in russia has kept radio enthusiastic puzzled for decades a hidden transmitter just broadcasts a strange series of beeps and buzzes only stopping to announce names in russian that leave some people wondering what purpose it actually serves pretty good off to game. the sound has been gripping the imagination of radio spotters worldwide for over three

decades. the u.v.b. seventy six also known as the buzzer. it first aroused my interest because it is so strange personally i think it's a legacy device and in the late seventy's or eighty's. the military operations of the time it's original this is in. the sea has been going like this since the start whenever that was were sometimes the buzzer stops in the mail robotic like voice lists names and numbers in russian. is the soviet union's and now russia's contact with spies or even civilizations from other worlds. us life has been to read your fantasy since his childhood he's also had his share of the browser but his explanation of his purpose is much more

down to earth. and this sort of connection is extremely reliable it will shut down in case of a large nuclear explosion but only for a few hours it's not dependable anything that's why it's still widely used today by the army the idea is pretty simple and new to a radio station sends out the buzzer which is received by other army bases by stopping the buzzer operator signals that a command called of the letters and numbers is about to be broadcast when the transmission is complete the buzzer jones on again you just lost said moscow's radio spying community nor were the signal used to come from a base outside of the capital but this is what we saw today and this man is the only living soul we could find. on the spot he used to work at least and still it's illegal if you buy. a little bit of this used to be one of the best units in the

country two years ago we received an order to shut it down we were told it consumed too much energy there is also another similar unit it still operates could be that the legendary wasn't used to be out of this building and will is the signal coming from now it looks like we won't be able to find any signs of that mysterious transamerica here because the equipment was literally ripped out of the walls and floors of the building when the before shut down but some things are actually still here. with the last entry the leading back to me two thousand and nine. but the sounds. were never it's coming from. boise through the radio ether of always has always will suit will technology has conquered them or else.

he got this little. great story want to mistreat so well while some people of baffled by the transmissions they receive others are more concerned about the signals they might be sending will tell you what because they don't know who's listening as we report on why the big brother taxi is about to make its debut in the british city of oxford because the local council where i thought all vice and cabs to be equipped with c.c.t.v. cameras recording all the video. from over that online. top stories well be occupied moving. from war on the musician. part of the apec leaders during a stately dinner we got the footage. and

. got the inside track on russia's current diplomatic mission in the middle east and we got sport after that to the nerves jittering the football world it said now or never in euro twenty twelve qualifying you know has got more on that first let's get across change the business. and welcome to business science it's good to have your company top of fissionables from the world's leading gas exporting countries have met in doha between them they hold more than two ferd's of the world's gas reserves and their summit is aimed at balancing the interests of both producers and consumers another discussion of similar topics took place in moscow at the annual gas of russia forum mrs arty's marina kosovo was following events. some of the main issues so far have been pricing innovation and competition and it's no secret that many european countries

are dissatisfied right now with russia's gas from because it links its import rates to oil prices and many believe that given the current market conditions russia should rethink its pricing of formula at the same time today ministers meeting in. the city returning to apply swing to oil to save long term gas contracts and russia's energy minister who is a you could tell right now outlined his main concerns for us one of the spoke words beautifully firstly it's the supremacy of the long term gas contracts with which we've relied on this strategy and will stick to it in future secondly it's the principle of linking natural gas prices to oil prices we believe that natural gas should not cost less than a crude just because natural gas meter high ecological requirements and this should be priced in by the market when it comes to the immediate future gas home has already forecast an increase in european cells next year of around eight per cent and of course we'll be more volumes now with

a newly launched nord stream gas supply plane so it's really essential for gas from to iron out its differences with its european counterparts. so you look at the markets the south in the u.s. they are looking for direction we tail sales of came in better than expected for the second consecutive month which did give a natural boost to the dow books now it's actually point three percent no one in europe but pretty similar situation for one percent the dax still in the red. euro zone debt worries once again weighing on investors all eyes are now on rising spanish and italian bond yields and declines on the dax all that by comments by and i'm sure it's. very most of the day in the red russia and some day slots to also see declines on the bisects we see. in financials mostly people paid managed to completely recover by the end. point six percent at the close one of the biggest

losers after actually losing one point three percent the company did its russian accounting standards and net profits to more than five and a half times a year in the first nine months but that does not provide support why people visit and luke oil is up one point three percent one of the biggest periods of the day. russian car maker gaz as reported a profit for the first half hour for twenty eleven that's actually after reporting a loss in the same period last year net income reached almost fifty million dollars where the company benefiting from higher demand gaz was on the verge of bankruptcy in two thousand and nine a managed to restructure one billion dollars worth of debt significantly cut costs the c.e.o. of the company is positive about the business. if you look at the first have we had twenty nine percent growth of revenue. we came in at nine point six percent. very

strong performance very strong performance by zero zero dealers were employees if i look at the second half will be even stronger. we will finish probably thirty two hundred forty billion rubles in revenue we're going to sound a bit up all right in just a moment kevin will be back with the headlines. it's

one thing.
