obama and mitt romney running neck and neck after a lackluster foreign policy showing tao and with my man lots to. live from moscow you're watching the weekly here on our t.v. this sunday on the east and now a libya's pro-government militia keeps up its deadly siege of the ex gadhafi bastion of bani walid that's despite authorities claims the town has fallen there's also been reports the attackers used chemical weapons against the civilian population are seen as paul the slayer has been gathering witness accounts of what the people of bani walid are go weak for. 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 leading houses bulldozing properties and shooting indiscriminately if you want if you all most of whom. nobody know a connection there is no communication there is no anything that is they'll be able . 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 your home and their truck and you want to find it hard and shouted 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 attacks even their their families who died in the shelling children died there frightened 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 what his

supporters there were accused of kidnappings and murdering a former militia man credited with capturing the libyan leader last year i would nurses and doctors on the scene say people are being fired at with gas pulled the shells r.t. sources report seeing militia trying to hide and remove the 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 in videos recorded the missiles they used on the white phosphorus raining down from these missiles many people died without being wounded or 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 fallen 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 didn't know what they were doing when i was leaving when a thing 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. small mistakes but the whole picture the. 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 are mainstream media have also chosen to be silent prompting the charge of double standards to be leveled at them but what is their. militias do what.

is criticizing the militias the chaotic scenes or throwback to the long running rivalry between wizard and so bani walid and misrata a city khadafi. they also show the weakness of the new government so forty of the former rebel militias which always have 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 your back is 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. now 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. 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 i deadly attack in benghazi claimed the lives of four

diplomats embassador 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 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 but he will leave continues most mainstream news outlets have remained silent not reporting on what some are calling a humanitarian catastrophe hurry up or die on our team new york. well john rees a political activist with stop the war coalition thinks that the violence in bani

while the just fallout from the nato backed regime change in libya. we're beginning to see the fall fruits of the western intervention in libya were 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 enormous term stable we know they were able to get the weapons out of the militias hands we know that the government is in control of the capital very quiet about the whole country so i think this shows that the west intervention is simply more arms into the country made it ungovernable after they left the. in other news it's been a favorite streak in the american presidential race as candidates bursts into

a sprint for the last leg of the campaign barack obama and mitt romney held their final debate heavy on foreign policy though once again both candidates plans for striking similarities and antiwar activists brian becker says u.s. policy will stay the same no matter who's at the health. 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 in the reflective positions of the two candidates and staged it as a few trickle 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. well though the republican versus democrat debate held few surprises and even less time for city not so third party to be largely ignored by the mainstream media for other u.s. presidential candidates gathered together till they had their own that's slightly different plans for america here's a look at what they 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 our ad as god and i johnson say if we could well be like germany after world war i. margie spoke exclusively to a number of candidates taking part in that debate one of them was dr jill stein from the green party of america earlier this month she was arrested for protesting the first presidential debate she tells us why she. most of the american public doesn't even know that there are other candidates running so that's why i went to

the gateway to the debate at hofstra university two weeks ago to demand that the debate be opened up and i was arrested and handcuffed to a chair for eight hours unfortunately this is what our democracy is looking like we are squandering trillions of dollars right now on wars for oil that we don't need on tax breaks for the wealthy and on bailouts for wall street forty billion a month now being spent to bail out the bankers once again so we can stop all that the establishment parties are quaking in their boots that word will get out and in fact if it does there are enough people to turn the results of this election on its head is that going to happen i'm not holding my breath but if we're ever going to win it we've got to begin it. in the final third party presence of presidential debate is still to column and will be hosted at our t's washington d.c. studio we'll be broadcasting it live for both our american and international viewers also throughout next week we'll be looking in-depth at the political

censorship and there were always be censorship if there are any words or symbols or opinions that could get you bumped off the air or legal trouble in your country then guess what you have censorship sorry to say it but that's how it is i don't mind a country saying that there is something so antithetical to their way of life that it must be banned i'm fine with that that's your business in your country and you should be able to protect your culture and your values but don't lie to me and tell me that you live censorship free when you don't it's your choice you let the iranian channels back on the air or come out of the closet and admit you believe in restricted speech but that's just my opinion. you will come to the. critics so as cowards this month the mood is the center of our universe the tides of forever while the sun's rays can be fickle innovative construction methods last cost as well as environmental damage for brand new

artists are further reports the economic contagion is far from got its main symptom nation's outrage still plaguing the e.u. . getting back at a stair it's a people a year to continuing to fight against this in measures that are biting deeper and deeper into the public and private purpose of many usa nations clashes with police break out in the north of italy of thousands marched against the government in the capital reign in what was dubbed anti monte de similar things we witnessed in the trades west bank has turned on the us to rally against never ending government cuts we feel like we are now under a percentage by our government that they are doing face that we are no we don't agree with them and we are telling them on the diamond but they don't listen they don't care as it is sturdy and a spread across year thousands of people have taken to the strait and it's not just

in madrid for in greece to italy big you're using countries and small this is a euro 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 this is a younger generation that's been hit the hardest in the stats for the country you see the half the sixteen to twenty four year olds in the house of work everything you see increasing unemployment poverty. the ferns. 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 protesters from the governments that more and more a growing to live with that of g.t. you'll find many of them joining the marches lower in force with

a feeling the pinch the need amongst many protesters greg craig been here many times before and still they tell us. nothing seeing a change. 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 debt 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 will 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 see isolated from their electorates and amongst the euro members themselves divisions a wide in a explains witnessing this independently castle a near in the basque country those demanding freedom and electing separatist politicians meanwhile greece is fighting an upsurge of radical nationalist

a country that it is not at war with and the international community says almost nothing about actions which are illegal by international standard. it was. the it. was. back in the day islamabad and washington were all smiles each seeking to benefit from cooperation centered on dealing with a persistent taliban problem though there was a cool off in their relationship in the one nine hundred seventy s. when pakistan began working on its nuclear bomb the vows were renewed in the wake of the two thousand one world trade center bombing and the ensuing war on terror presently however there seems to be no love lost in this match and on strike.

majority of the votes but the biggest surprise yet may come in the majority where nobody can predict the result there are many independent candidates running for the majority seeds 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 its intent to impeach the president if they gain a majority in parliament in one way or another the biggest dark course 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 this leaves. on what 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
