if you got legal limbo good. luck. live. a fresh cache of arms is finding its way to the libyan government's deadly assault on the perceived city of bani walid its residents are accusing western governments of turning a blind eye to the plot show. it to me in rage anti-government protests in the north of the country turned violent with fierce clashes between demonstrators and police wanted rome tens of thousands are marching against austerity cuts during

what's called anti wanted day. and the same just thirty messages crowds into the streets of the spanish capital these are my pictures from madrid to here on r.t. . al-qaeda reiterated support for the syrian opposition while the rebel group kidnaps a lebanese journalist in aleppo citing his words inconsistency with their revolution records. also reporting that ten days before the u.s. presidential votes the democratic and republican hopefuls are neck and neck in the race on the third party candidate strive to offer an alternative many americans could be ready for. international news or comment live from our new center here in moscow this is. after three weeks of siege and deadly rocket shelling from libyan army forces

thousands of families are now trying to flee the town of bani walid the spike government claims the military action is now over and aides being distributed residents of colonel gadhafi is form a stronghold say there's no water or food or medicine but even those who managed to escape the violence say their sufferings far from over as they're being blocked by militias on a desert highway. this is. this good this gun and this people know this thing now why you don't know one week now this is the outside and does it know what the were doing when i was living with you thing when when the government you know it was chaotic shelling they fired at homes and shelters indiscriminately more than two thousand families have fled seven families are with us at the moment yesterday we fled to the valley but they were firing at us even their their families who died in the shelling children died too they fired by women and children mistreated that head by so exposed and rockets of our hands i saw the

dead. libyan political activist whose relatives are trapped in bani walid says those inside the term feel abandoned by the international community just a warning you may find some of the following images upsetting. power seems out of being with the. houses are being birds those are the people who are inside the city who can. leave the city are you going to hear of the militia or fear of. the inside and see if the united nation known to fewer to let people go inside their houses you will see a. picture. of him until he embraces the west is no doubt it isn't letting these militias do whatever they want to believe in to kill don't. know who was. the worse it's been criticizing

these militias so we'll leave you let alone with the first of. all of the interview you use militias. it is right that the nato powers that intervened in libya last year don't interfere now to help stop the violence but it will lead that's a view of all of the miles he's the former british ambassador to libya who i talked to just a little earlier here on r.t. . i think that these problems are got to be sorted out by the libyans and they are being sorted out of the worst problem at the moment is the one in value or lead that's a political problem compounded by a very old feud between. despite the politics many are saying well what's different between syria and libya a lot of calls now for intervention to in syria to prevent a humanitarian crisis there and yet the west is accuse of turning a blind eye and yet he is surely one has to recognize the fact that there is a humanitarian crisis in libya at the moment. well you can call it humanitarian

crisis relatively small town. has something like seventy thousand inhabitants the number of fighters who are believed to be loyal to gadhafi is not very large but of course fighting is terrible and of course. we must hope that it comes to an end as soon as possible. keeping a close eye on the situation more firsthand accounts from the embattled town are available at r.t. dot com check out the analysis on the troubles libya is facing a year after standing needed more gadhafi it was toppled in revolt with the help of nato. fierce clashes have erupted in a town in northern italy where police used tear gas and buttons to disperse anti-government protesters the so-called no one today in the country with tens of thousands of people expressing their anger over tough economic measures taken by

the prime minister mario monti first reports from madrid where crowds are also gathering with an anti a sturdy message. we've already seen agger exploding in parts of italy we've had the clashes breaking out in the town in italy it was when he was visiting today to give a talk to a conference and. he's come out today in this million moments each day already had a run in with the police and take us to be nice to me this passes getting quite nasty as well unfortunately these types of like forty five million now all of course the year you say if you close your mind back to last year around the table fifteenth and we saw they see these protests in italy and you know the violence breaking out that very very very volatile situation and one year old and we think much the same thing happening again it's not just that today i'm here today in madrid where crowds gather handing out feels thirty protests again you know since

spain is just hit post the twenty five percent no one in food people in spain now unemployed sleeping cripplingly i think is that as he said really it's repeated time and again across the years a we've seen it in greece you seen it in spades with thing it's in italy the euro crisis hasn't discriminated the large man is the small men because all of them had been dragged into this and it's just continually ongoing i think people are really starting to get to the point where they feel like there is no end in sight and they're not being listened to and no solutions on the horizon and that's really what you're seeing so much of this anger in scenes as movie things they did it's the breaking up. for such a jerome russo spoke to me he says the situation in italy is quickly getting out of control and the country may be the next in line to become the epicenter of the crisis. but people who are very well aware that the government's main goal is to

have it both as a story and you're telling people and so the protests are always really sort of discredit the guardian in a much broader sense and argue for a return to a more democratic or politics in europe the problem is that the situation is that only getting worse especially since november last year when this i mean the democratic government gives power and we've seen serious tax hikes we've seen in spending cuts we've seen reforms in all the holes in the pension system a. veritable of assaults on labor rights and here in florence i mean you can even see it in the streets in the outskirts there are more and more people who are sleeping out in the streets i mean the border guards at night and the situation is getting worse it's not just out there it is but i do think that it's in the it may be next in line with the situation in in spain especially it's been further out of control and the alternative is actually not to have cut back spending money to invest more in the economy to invest in growth to make sure that there are jobs and the only way to ultimately get out of this is to grow your way out of it and not just cut your way out of that so one of the main arguments of the people here is

that it is if you actually listen to the people who are not too good for the national interests from abroad you will come up with a lot more sensible and a lot more rational response to this crisis stay with us for all the updates on the protests in the e.u. as our correspondent brings you the latest throughout the day. al qaeda leader ayman al-zawahiri has called for muslims to kidnap westerners as a bargaining chip to win the release of its members held captive around the world in a new video posted online he also urged islamists to support syrian rebels with quote all that they can assist us this now with manual oxen i use an editor in chief of the german monthly news magazine xeroxed he joins us now live from berlin al-qaeda has once again openly supported the syrian rebels who are still mainly viewed as freedom fighters in the west do you believe this statement will in

a in any way change that sentiment. well i must be a political dreamer to believe that there's any change but only a realist you have to see this new as we have here today this announcement of this is nothing new or i'm from germany and the german government already recognize its july end of july this year the german government recognized that around one hundred. related groups in syria so this information is not new even the mainstream media and the me were reporters who want leo irregularly. involvement in the syrian conflict so i don't think it will be really any change yet but that announcement has swiftly been followed now by action hasn't it because al-qaeda did actually call for the abduction of foreigners to promote the islamist cause and as it happened hours later we're reporting that a syrian rebel has actually a rebel group has kidnapped

a lebanese journalist whose work they said was not consistent with the revolution because now this is an alarming development isn't it. indeed it's an alarming development but it's not unusual first of all i'm very thankful that you use the expression kidnapping and not using the expression the rebels are using detaining. because it is what they do with the criminal action of the journalists but he has no. the first journalists to work at night we see and a huge number of journalists we are chilled by the by the rebels in syria who were killed by related groups i just want. to add to remember that the journalists on the syrian t.v. channel syrian news t.v. which where were. some journalists and where the news building was also in the end of june this year so what i ask where are the organisations where are the organizations reporters. or where are they protesting against these actions and i

ask myself something else i have been in syria as a journalist a horse i had a means that i was in the masters and what i can say i met a lot of journalists who were not reporting consistent to the syrian government cost and they were not detained they were knocking at their feet we are free to virtually this country so you see that there is a huge difference how dinners were in syria and a monster huge difference in the risk and one would ask also why is the u.n. security council not reacting to those atrocities in syria we know for example after yesterday's deadly blast in the capital damascus that the u.n. security council rejected a call by russia to condemn that attack why should well what we what we witnessed here are very obvious it was a simple game in the u.n. security council of the games name to protect it means that russia was doing it

against the west and. against syria now they are playing the game in the other direction you see that that is the same psychology which works out also in the primary school or in the works or also in the security council it's assumed this and by the way that it is carried out on the better or better people off the casualties of these terrorist attacks just fundamental your thoughts about the current situation in syria we can say with certainty. of course that truce has now failed brahimi the special envoy if he's he's failed in his initiative now whose fault is that and did it really ever have a chance in the first place now do we do it to be honest we honest i never thought that this will work and it has a very simple reason when you are told is that it's the fault of the navy thinking it's the fault that we believe in the west the people still believe that there is the syrian government on the one side and on the other side there's the organisation or the free syrian army but so what free syrian army but what is

realistic is that we have the syrian government and syrian army. organisation where you have people to look at where you have an organization on the other side you have this huge number of different terrorist groups or. how mean from the from other countries coming across the borders to syria they already announced yesterday and the day before that they will not accept the troops that they will not hold the troops so it's not a surprise that it doesn't work out today monologues and writer editor in chief of the german monthly news magazines us live from berlin thank you very much indeed his thoughts. this is r.t. here in moscow more news to come after a short break. trimmings

to the u.s. now in the race for the presidency is heading towards its final week in the polls putting both republican and democrat candidates effectively tied. to choose between them these days in the future the political landscape could be very different so says former cia officer philip giraldi. i think there the possibility of there being some kind of political shift and the united states is much stronger now than it has ever been because there is a lot of disillusionment in terms of how the two parties have managed the economy i mean basically we have a right now a small a large government republican running against a larger government democrat there's not a whole lot of difference between what each would do and in terms of foreign policy they're very close i think a lot of people are actually very much disillusioned with this i can see

a split developing probably in the republican party and possibly in the democratic party in terms of foreign policy and other issues where you're going to have these issues emerging in a much more forcible way in the future. despite the u.s. political landscape seemingly ready for a new political forces many americans still don't realize they have a big choice than just two candidates knowledge and ignored by the mainstream media third parties have a hard time making their views heard the resident or healthiness stick to the streets of new york to find out if people know they exist a tool. this week third party candidates for the u.s. presidency held a debate do americans even know that this week let's talk about that did you watch the third party debate. what do you think did best. obama do best no that's not the third party debate who do you think did a good job in the third party debate i still think there parag obama did

a little bit better job than mitt romney i know that the third party debate that was the main candidates that day but the third parties are we have actual other candidates that are running did you know that no i didn't there's jill stein she's the the green party there's gary johnson libertarian and none of these names ring a bell and i think it's unfortunate that americans don't know they have more than two main options you know we're stuck with democrats republicans we don't cover for that so why do you think that is. the tradition. tradition. we do we used to what i would think either one of the third party have other ideas other than democratic somebody sure they do they're against the n.c.a.a. they're against the war and junk they're against drone strikes there's a lot of other ideas. you don't agree with any about you know drone strikes no one to protecting us and saving our soldiers from being killed even when they have

a very low actually percentage rate of unfortunate collateral damage as part of war you know what else is running besides the two main ones don't i don't so do you feel informed enough to make a vote. no. for to go get it right i think the media has pretty much walked to that whole aspect. why do they do that they're supposed to be impartial they're supposed to be saying the news the poor ocracy you know i mean the. democrats go. two heads of the same snake and they're both supporting big business big corporations they want to make it look like you have a choice you know two sides of the same coin so it seems like most americans don't know that there are more than two candidates running for president and with only a few days left of voting day chances are obama or romney is going to be elected.

while being blocked by the mainstream media third party candidates do have a chance to deliver their messages to the voters here. this coming tuesday the final round of the us presidential third party debate will be hosted on this very channel in the run up to the event moderated tom hartman from the big picture shed his view on its significance third parties historically have have influence presidential elections there's never been a third party that actually won one but there have been third parties that have changed the nature of presidential elections i don't think that in this election cycle the third parties are going to have a real significant effect in terms of this particular election but what they are doing and what these debates are doing is raising those issues raising those topics and subjects that generally are ignored by both the corporate mainstream media and the two major political parties in ways that that tend to energize movements and movement politics is typically where actual political change happens movement

politics eventually infiltrate even major party politics so so i think that these are very important things and the final round of third party debates you'll see that nowhere else but exclusively here on monday november the fifth and then forget we have special coverage of the u.s. election on air and online each week looking at the race from a different perspective starting this monday we saw the presidential campaign through the eyes of the protest movement with a focus on domestic policies and the economy. what will change when america picks its president amid muslim rage walking the around tightrope pushing china and russia as occupy anger spreads the two parties still dictate will their future u.s. election close if they are take the getting up to twenty second. activists have staged a protest in central moscow to support opposition figures who were this week charged with plotting disorder in russia the rally was broken up by police who said

hello and welcome to technology update with demand so wearing and resources limited the sun could be setting on an outdated era of global energy simply put new alternatives to invoke alternative sources or the best bet going forward energy directly from the sun is often the first thing that comes to mind when people mention solar power however when you really think about it the sun's responsible for far more than just fueling solar panels wind farms are an indirect result of the sun's rays as convection currents drive global air streams and create the majority of gusts on the globe. and in fact there'd be no plants or trees to make biofuels from if there was no sun to spur on photosynthesis in the first place. as

those plants die off and decompose thermal heat and pressure slowly turns those into fossil fuels like coal and oil however there is one source of energy that has no apparent connection to the sun instead the moon is to think for the motion of the ocean that we know as the tides is relative proximity it exerts a much stronger influence than the sun. as the moon circles the globe the water closest to it gets pulled out words especially at the equator there's also a smaller bulge on the other side as the solid earth is literally pulled away from the oceans furthest from the moon when the sun moon and earth are aligned we get the strongest tides and if you're in the right place at the right time the moon even provides enough energy to surf on its title bores funnel incoming water down narrow river ways. in this runs reflect the eternal nature of the moon's tidal power. and the idea of using the tides for humans purposes has been around for ages several hundred years ago enterprising engine.
