if. russia would be so much brighter if you knew about some movement from funds to impression. from stunts on t.v. dot com. chaos and killing in the former gadhafi stronghold of bani walid goes unnoticed by those who doubt a humanitarian bombing campaign against the late libyan leader last year. the tabby eurozone governments backed by iron fist police units go up against outrage of protesters as anger peeks over endless austerity. brock obama

and mitt romney running neck and neck after a lackluster foreign policy show in tel ends with neither man blasting russia. and ukraine heads to the polls to choose a new part of them into what could become an unpredictable vote for the former boxing champion coming to power to swing forces for or against the current president. it's nine am in moscow this is r t coming to you live on the news now with a look back at the week's top stories and libya's pro-government militia keeps up its deadly siege of the extra daffy bastion of bani walid despite a far these claims the town has fallen there have also been reports the attackers used chemical weapons against the civilian population archies paullus leader has

been gathering the witnesses' accounts of what the people of bani walid are going through. these are the pictures the world has chosen not to see dismembered bodies random killings dying women and children for three weeks the libyan city of bani walid has been under siege armed militia gangs patrolled the streets looting houses bulldozing properties and shooting indiscriminately. most of whom. nobody has no connection there is no there is no i think that is the real world. was not able. to. connect with each other people are so concerned for the safety of their families they don't want to be identified you know meant that it was chaotic shall they fired at harbors and shouted indiscriminately more than two thousand families have fled seven families are with us at the moment and yesterday we fled to the valley but they were firing attacks even their their families who

died in the shelling children died to their frighted by women and children the straight to the head it started with the order for the army to use all means necessary to rid the former gadhafi stronghold of all his supporters there were accused of kidnappings and murdering of former militia men credited with capturing the libyan leader last year i would misses and doctors on the scene say people are being fired at with gas folder shells r.t. sources report seeing militia trying to hide and remove bodies of those killed by chemical weapons and i can confirm that these militias used internationally prohibited weapons they used phosphorous bombs and nerve gas we have documented all these and videos were recorded the missiles they used on the white phosphorus raining down from these missiles many people died without being wounded shot they died as a result of gases the red cross is to me it's more than twenty five thousand people have so far been made homeless with fiji's who in the confusion of the past few days try to return home after the army announced the city had full and they're now

stranded on the desert highway in fear and panic. look at this. this good this gun and this people know this thing now why you don't know one week now this is the outside and know what they were doing when i was leaving when i think when when one of the government explosions and rockets about our hands i saw the dad but the general national council denies the killings despite the evidence to the contrary where the government force. a place where i would go of course there will be. floor mistakes but the whole picture of the whole thing is being better for. we are taking care of all the family and it's not only the libyan authorities that are in denial western governments and mainstream media have

also chosen to be silent prompting the charge of double standards to be leveled at them but what is. militias they were. criticizing militias the chaotic scenes or throwback to the long running rivalry between wizard and so bani walid and misrata a city khadafi laid siege to they also show the weakness of the new government's authority over former rebel militias which always had the chance but essentially do what they like. power so it's a leech is a message to all of them across libya wherever they are whoever you are and however strong you are and whoever your backers are the revolution should win. it's a year since independence came to this oil rich country but little seems to have changed for ordinary libyans many of the crimes gadhafi was accused of are now

being laid at the foot of the general national council a reminder that for many the arab spring turned out to be a very cold winter policia r.t. beirut. well russia has raised the issue at the u.n. urging members to take peaceful steps to stop the bloody assault on the people of bani walid the motion however was shot down by the u.s. which spearheaded the humanitarian war against libya's toppled leader moammar gadhafi last year in a poor nial has more now from new york. while the united nations has focused much attention this week on the ongoing conflicts in syria and mali russia's efforts to address the death and destruction taking place in libya was blocked by the united states washington refused to support a security council press statement drafted by russia calling for the resolution of violence in bani walid which has been under siege for weeks the u.s. delegation cited a further need for consultations but meanwhile the russian ambassador to the u.n.

for tali churkin says that it's quite strange the u.s. would have blocked a press statement condemning the use of force in dealing with libya's political problems just one month after a deadly attack in benghazi claimed the lives of four diplomats ambassador churkin said it is difficult in this case to explain the u.s. delegations actions in a rational terms now russia's draft press statement calls on the libyan authorities to take urgent steps to resolve the conflict by peaceful means and to preserve the rights of all libyan citizens it also expressed concern about the significant escalation of violence in and around the city of bani walid libyan forces launched a full scale it's not in town more than three weeks ago accusing it of being controlled by supporters to former libyan leader moammar gadhafi dopy was overthrown in early two thousand and eleven at that time western media outlets made libya for the troops today as the fighting and but he will leave continue most

mainstream news outlets have remained silent not reporting on what some are calling a humanitarian catastrophe. new york. to. one reason political activists with stop the war coalition thinks that the violence in bani walid is fallout from the nato backed regime change in libya just over a year ago. we're beginning to see the fall fruits of the western intervention in libya over a year ago when the tide recedes when the west's arms are no longer being used you can see that there's a continuation of a civil war that was. happening before. we know that the situation is that you know it was just over we know that they were able to get out of the militias and we know that the government is in control of the capital but what about the whole country was so i think this shows that the west intervention more arms into the country

made it ungovernable after they left coming up pointing the finger of blame an airstrike weapons found in khartoum to see sudan accused israel of orchestrating the attack its image fears of growing tension in the region. and around drama reaches the skies over america with u.s. officials plucking a popular pakistani politician off his flight apparently over his opposition to washington's drone operations. this week saw the anniversary of one of the most radical steps the e.u. took to fight the financial crisis european leaders agreed on a massive debt write off for greece and on boosting the block's bailout fund for starters sarah firth reports the economic contagion is far from gone but its main symptom nation's outrage still plaguing the e.u. . hitting back at a stair it's a people a year or two continuing to fight against this in measures that are biting deeper

and deeper into the public and private of many usa nations clashes with police break out in the north of italy thousands marched against the government in the capital right in the movies and in monte de similar scenes we witnessed in the trades west bank is turned on the us to rally against never ending government. but we feel like we are now under a percentage by our government that they are doing this that we are no we don't agree with them and we are telling them on the diamond but they don't listen so they don't care as it is starting anger spread across year thousands of people have taken to the street and it's not just in madrid for in greece to italy big you're using countries and small this is the year a crisis that doesn't discriminate affecting people of all ages and from all walks of life here in spain the unemployment figures now top

a whopping twenty five percent in this younger generation that's been hit the hardest hit that for the country you see the house the sixteen to twenty four year old in the house of work everything is increasing unemployment poverty. the ferns to train the processing in people here if they are not taking the right decisions is going to be. people is going to be angrier because of the. police offices. dividing the protest this from the governments that more and more like growing to live with that of g.t. you'll find many of them joining the much. lower enforcement a feeling the pinch the need amongst many protesters the great great dane many times the full and skilled they can assist. they will see that change. is actually not you who cut back spending but 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 was not to 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 interest from abroad you would come up with a lot more sensible a lot more rational response to this but it's a dogmatic insistence on austerity has seen successive governments across the isolated from their electorates and amongst the euro members themselves divisions a widening a explains witnessing this independently a bit yesterday near the basque country those demanding freedom and let things that are to politicians while greece is fighting enough surge of radical nationalist sentiment is leading to the grave of far right and fascist groups seems like these make it hard to believe that earlier this month even the war did the neighbor peace prize bringing stability and unity to the previously want to own continent some

protesters calling it a social muska with a massive euro wide strike planned for later this month it seems as long as things continue as they are there will be no peace here so if. it just. coming up as bad diagnosis for you case health care system medics mistake see people lose trust in the national health service as we tell you the tragic story of one woman search for professional treatment. of former pakistani cricket legend turned politician emraan kahn was pulled off a plane and interrogated by u.s. officials for over two hours on his way to new york from toronto he was led away for questioning over his vocal opposition to america's drone strikes in pakistan you know demands an apology from washington why. that he is unlikely to get our. reports for killing the civilians of one country in the name of security of another

the united states has been doing just that for over eighteen years and pakistan. there are terrorists holed up in those mountains who murdered three thousand americans they are plotting to strike again federally administered tribal areas burned bright red on the map that's where u.s. drone attacks have been killing thousands of people claiming the majority of them are militant extremists a study led by scholars from new york and stanford university's found that only around two percent of the total number of deaths were militants among the remaining several thousand victims of drone attacks hundred seventy five were children the fact of the matter remains the us has been carrying out military operations in the country that it is not at war with and the international community says almost nothing about actions which are illegal by international standard the rest.

it's the talks. which i. think the. choice. was. that in the day islamabad and washington were all smiles each seeking to benefit from cooperation centered on dealing with the persistent taliban problem though there was a cool off in the relationship in the one nine hundred seventy s. when pakistan began working on its nuclear bomb the valves were renewed in the wake of the two thousand one world trade center bombing and then suing the war on terror presently however there seems to be no love lost in this match and on strike and. counterproductive but. couldn't under full on strikes. again focus on solving the. it's not just the buzzing of the drones however that threatens pakistan's integra. what was great is one of the greatest feats of the fight against terrorism this as a nation of islam with a large and was

a military operation carried out in secret and without knowledge of the pakistani authorities but. then came the killing of twenty four pakistani soldiers in the u.s. led air strike forcing islamabad to close down the nato supply route to afghanistan for seven months it was reopened only after an official apology from the u.s. secretary of state with pakistan itself calls to cut off cooperation or submission as many see it to the u.s. get louder with every passing week pakistanis believe the united states may be giving a lot of money to their government but is it the same time taking away the country's sovereignty and killing its people in islamabad it in english go r t. a fever is weak in the american presidential race as candidates burst into a sprint for the last leg of the campaign barack obama and mitt romney held their

final debate heavy on foreign policy but once again both candidates plans for striking similarities and antiwar activist brian backer says u.s. policy will stay the same no matter who is at the house. u.s. foreign policy regardless of whether the party in the white house is the republicans or the democrats is consistent based on principally the military industrial complex and big oil i think if we take the debate reflective positions of the two candidates and staged it as a few actual production we would we would borrow the words of william shakespeare and say it's much ado about nothing fundamentally the two candidates represent a foreign policy based on the new empire the american empire that superceded the british empire at the close of world war two i think the candidates have to. be very careful because while they want to position themselves as the best defenders of the empire the best defenders of the military industrial complex they also have

to recognize that the american people are sick and tired of war after war after war and sick and tired of having the national treasury drained so that tens of thousands hundreds of thousands of public sector workers jobs are lost but the military coffers keep growing and growing. though the republican versus democrat debate held few surprises and even less diversity not so the third party debate largely ignored by the mainstream media for other u.s. presidential candidates gather together to lay out their own vastly different plans for america here's a little of what they have to say. the president has assumed dictatorial rights to put us in prison at his pleasure without charge or without trial we are on the road toward to a lottery in his mind that's not an exaggeration the biggest threat to our national security is the fact that we're bankrupt we need to retrench rather than trying to

be the policeman of the world we need to put an end to the use of drones and actually lead not to lead this development of a new arms race but to lead in an international treaty and the convention to permanently banned the use of drones we're printing and borrowing money to the tune of forty three cents out of every dollar we spend. sixteen trillion dollars is bearing down on us and as governor johnson say if we could well be like germany after world war i. but you spoke exclusively to a number of the candidates taking part in that debate one of them just as party candidate rocky anderson he told r.t. that he would have been able he would have been able to swing votes in his favor have you been allowed to challenge obama and romney on national t.v. . one thing that's clear to me is that if i were included on the stage with barack obama and mitt romney i think there would be

a very different result in this country because the range of debate between them has been so constricted i mean they're basically arguing about who's going to raise military spending the most who's going to drill on public lands or offshore the most whether we're going to send small arms or water jar mz to syria and add to what's going to be afraid an absolute bloodbath a civil war in that country and the response to this debate has been just overwhelming i'm talking about our third party debate because we're saying things that you never hear from the republican and democrats and what we're saying really reflects what the majority of the american people want well the final third party presidential debate is still to come and we'll be broadcasting it live for you here in our t. also throughout next week we'll be looking in-depth at the political landscape in

america in the run up to election. what lies ahead for archer will the movement to mobilize calls for a new america to stir for the going to nine percent u.s. election if please go right to the twenty ninth. and apple a day seems to be the best remedy for u.k. citizens as the national health service loses people's trust over serious medical errors are just probably boycott reports on the tragic cost of a doctor's mistake. or are clearly in agony but in supposedly safe hands in hospital that's what janine harvey says distort when she came down with severe hit pain last december despite over forty visits to doctors in three different hospitals janine cervical cancer went on diagnosed rhyming in city hospital doctors here failed to spot janine harvey's cancer not once but twice

all the hospitals missed it too exposing parts of the barrier that led to the death of the thirty three year old mother of four just months later her family now say they want to need a story to be heard so that others can avoid a similar fate at one point doctors even suggested that jeanine's excruciating pain was all in her mind but her post-mortem examination showed that a cancerous tumor had grown so large inside her that it had shattered her pelvic bone. family gets upset when people ask why they didn't pay for costly private care you know if you're not sure suspects are easy with all the resources that you know what we needed to go private we felt we trusted them we trusted their every word janine isn't the only patient to be failed by the n.h.s.

somewhere around sixty percent of. deaths in hospitals are something that's happened but potentially was avoidable and has potentially contributed to that that's one thousand patients a month a recent study by the national institute of health research says that one patient in ten is affected by potentially serious medical errors half of whom die as a result such as twenty two year old cane gorney he died from dehydration from a combination of misdiagnosis and what the coroner called the incompetence of n.h.s. staff it's definitely a problem that patients are repeatedly coming to us with. reporting failing is a similar nature to that which happened to janine harvey janine's family are now turning their tragedy into forming a charity to give other people with complicated medical conditions a chance to get a second medical opinion privately before it's too late it's impossible for so many

individual console to to to make so many errors it must be the ceased it must be this some my. major or the lack of communication to negligence is leaving someone you know well better all knowing it's all i can think of any other word for . months long after. polly boyko r t london. well saddam has promised retaliation over an airstrike at a weapons factory in the capital khartoum which it blames on israel the jewish state neither confirm nor deny him carrying out the attack instead accusing sudan of playing a key role in an iranian backed arms shipping network political analyst dr mohammad . says the aggressor is obvious here. this is not the first attack again is going to start it or. it does happen before. the war ended on

gaza of the beginning of two thousand law and there have been a number of. sudanese territory and it is logically to say that this is where it is the country that is responsible for such a slogan is. my understanding also is that after the war again is gaza the grooviest are going to come to the previous israeli government but it's your own understanding too far to the. right of its sources is what is the country that is interested in fighting against other countries who are misapplying hummus with weapons and supporting hamas politically. but remember you can always go to our t.v. dot com to find out more stories pictures and analysis as well as catch up on anything you've missed on air here's a taste of what's lined up for you right now howling on the weened for the u.s.

east coast as a monstrous storm formed from march and hurricane looks set to hit new jersey next week it's projected to become america's worst in a hundred years. and we've got the story of one chinese man who has received more than one hundred thousand dollars after suing his wife for giving birth to an ugly baby. ukraine is set to elect a new parliament and a new voting system is in place allowing room for surprises as archie's alexy are seventy now reports of former boxing champion and his party may end up with enough weight to make or break the opposition. after what was the most expensive election in the history of silver and ukraine worth more than two billion us dollars polling stations of opened across the country. million voters in ukraine will elect its new parliament this election is revolutionary in many ways the voting system itself has changed dramatically now the voting takes place both on proportional seats in

parliament and majority very seats in parliament which are split into now in the first part in the proportional receipts nobody has any doubts that the ruling party the party of regions will eventually gain the majority of the votes but the biggest surprise yet may come in the majority of the seats where nobody can predict the result there are many independent candidates running for the majority seats and they eventually could have final say inside the parliament and will be able to choose which lines of parties they will be joining in the new coalition the opposition in ukraine as already declared to impeach the president if they gain a majority in parliament in one way or another the biggest dark horse of this election is the former boxer who is now finished his career heavyweight champion of the world now turned politician vitali klitschko and many say that it will be. have the

final say in the coalition in the forming of a new coalition inside the parliament. has said that he will not be forming a coalition with the ruling party and the communist but so far he hasn't yet signed an agreement with the opposition that he will be joining them in the new parliament . on how the new coalition inside the parliament will be and whether this new coalition will have enough seats in parliament to impeach president and dramatically change the outlook of the power structures in this country certainly we'll we'll be bringing all the latest results in this rather interesting vote as we get them. on a few minutes here in our chief watch our special report on the legacy of bomb tests legacy i should say that you can in australia.

what lies ahead for. the movement mobilize calls for a new america who stands for the ninety nine percent us election a close guide monday october twenty ninth on r.t.e. . nuclear fashionable side. radioactive fallout of all government betrayal the government. lauded and claude and claude how can the truth be revealed if there's no official evidence there was indeed a very great danger to the servicemen concerned who were given no problem protection and to the people of this country generally.
