week now this libyan go outside and doesn't know what they were doing when i was leaving when i think when when one of the government i saw explosions and rockets of our hands i saw the dad but the general national council denies the killings despite the evidence to the contrary where the government for sort of. a place where there are i would go as high that of course there will be. flow in effect but the whole picture of the whole thing is being better for there. 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 when it is their. militias who were.
3:05 am
criticizing militias the chaotic scenes of a throwback to the long running rivalry between wizards of bani walid and misrata a city gadhafi laid siege to they also show the weakness of the new government's authority over former rebel militias which oh it illegal 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 here 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 top of a very small market that last year our tears were important i has more now from new york. so 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 meanwhile the russian ambassador to the u.n. that's highly churkin says that it's quite strange the u.s. would block 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 embassador churkin
3:07 am
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 some orders to former libyan leader moammar gadhafi gadhafi was overthrown in early two thousand and eleven at that time western media outlets made libya for the troops today as the fighting and body will leave continues most mainstream news outlets have remained silent not reporting on what some are calling a humanitarian catastrophe. arts in new york. well the current situation in libya is an inconvenient truth for those who back the regime change there and
3:08 am
that's why they are now turning a blind eye to human rights abuses in bani walid as author and journalist. let's think back to february twentieth we couldn't pick up a newspaper in the u.k. or u.s. or put on the b.b.c. or c.n.n. without hearing about what was going on in libya a humanitarian disaster or a hole colonel gadhafi forces were killing lots of people there were dangers of a massive massacre in benghazi and because of that we went to war that that was the reason for war and today the situation lever is much worse you got a humanitarian catastrophe taken place the number of people killed since nato intervene has gone up but by between ten and twenty times we've got massacres going on at the moment and their silence complete silence here in the u.k. and in the u.s. they got what they want what they wanted they got really good after they got a pro western government in power now in tripoli and they're taking control of the oil industry this privatization western corporations moving in and they don't really give a toss to be honest about what's going on about about human rights abuses the fact that demonstrations are banned throughout the country it's time to move on on to

people is going to be angry or because of the. please. offices. dividing the protesters from the governments that more and more they're growing too low you get of g.t. you'll find many of them joining the march is even lower enforcement a feeling the pinch the need amongst many protesters is greg they've been here many times before and still they tell us nothing seems to change. it is actually not to 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 not just cut your way out of court 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 would come up with a lot more sensible and a lot more rational response to this crisis a dogmatic insistence on austerity cuts in successive governments across the

party candidate jill stein was arrested for trying to enter the presidential debate at hofstra university and now i know why there's never a third party candidate at the debates because the cops left the cuffs on them when they try to get in we all know we have a two party system so why do we lie to ourselves and pretend it's not that way it's the lying that bothers me it's the illusion that you have the freedom of choice when there are only two real options cut out the games just make the two party system the law of the land just make the two parties part of the government make their inner workings transparent and bound by the law and make it clear to every american that there are only two real ladders to climb to power stop lying to me and to everyone else about this democracy stuff where forty percent of the country
3:14 am
are independents with virtually no representation either cut the lies and make the two party system the law or make your lies become true by letting the candidates like jill stein and gary johnson have a simple conversation with obama and romney on t.v. if they are indeed extremists then this should show through at the debates right there's nothing scary about competition in an election but that's just my opinion. secret laboratory to mccurry was able to build a most sophisticated robot which will unfortunately doesn't excuse the doing of found anything tombs mission to teach creation why it should care about humans. this is why you should watch only on the o.t. dot com.

a little turn to angle this story. for you here. in spanish find out more visit. here with r t live from moscow well of 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 how their final debate heavy on foreign policy though once again both candidates plans for striking similarities and on top of that former cia officer ray mcgovern says there was a lot simply left out. well obama should be able to say that our ambassadors are going to be killed our other representatives are going to be murdered unless we change our policy toward the world that's policy be defined by

the need for oil and the need to protect what are perceived to be the interests of israel unless we change those policies we will never succeed in being able to protect our our embassies and our other diplomatic establishment about afghanistan probably we're smart say it's a fool's errand we ought to get out of there we were wrong we ought to bring our troops right back now why can't he say that or why is it not likely that is say that because no politician in the united states can afford the slightest risk of seeming soft on things that are described as the war on terrorism it's that simple . although the republican versus democrat debate held few surprises and even less diversity not so the third party to bait largely ignored by the mainstream media for other us presidential candidates gathered together to lay out their own vastly different plans for america here's just
3:18 am
a bit of what the had 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 him and 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 johnson say if we could well be like germany after world war i. but i actually spoke exclusively to

a number of the candidates taking part in that debate one of them just as party candidate rocky anderson who told our team that he would be unable to swing votes in his favor had he 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 off shore the most whether we're going to send small arms or a large arms 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 tell you about our third party debate because we're saying things
