on the edge of tripoli. the nato as head guy in the in the in the rebel slave council as i call it nato he said he said in his speech to the green square just the other day that the islamists will never take over and that you know what he said he said to his rebels do not attack the women and children leave them out of this which is an admission from the m.d.c. is an admission from mr julio about his rebels have been attacking women and children or at what about the u.n. then it's convening in new york for the general assembly russia is calling for the lifting of the no fly zone in libya it seems there's no purpose anymore for that is there any chance that nato countries might actually do that would you see this campaign continuing. there's no way nato countries going to do that i mean the rebels have said several months ago if if nato stops air campaign they will lose within days and that's the case now so cosy and cameron go to benghazi and who stands behind them but if one really levy who is the arch frie

for now, the residents of tripoli keep celebrating. even though essential supplies are scarce in the city. since gaddafi and his supporters have left, they feel safer. the one thing that could make them happier would be news that the former dictator has been captured. >> the new libya, a changing country. that has been the focus of our in-depth report. as always, thanks for watching. thanks for the company, and have a very good weekend, everyone. captioned by the national captioning institute --www.ncicap.org--

loyalists but here in tripoli in the capital this city looks pretty much divided right now we've seen many people all way have been business you fly isn't carrying banners thank you so because you thank you france thank you britain for words what you've done. as a dictatorship but the ras still areas in tripoli where people like row police of cotton could are free and be safe they don't trust the rebels because they don't know them and the see them as those who just want to share. is all. so situation even here in tripoli is very complicated and that's why some skeptics say that all these celebrations and even this visit by cameron to tripoli is a little bit premature really really interesting stuff a divide in tripoli about something that i'm not seeing or hearing elsewhere i do want to thank you for sharing our to correspondent maria for notion out with the latest from tripoli all right we will be back in just a few minutes i want to thank you so much coming up we have more on what's going on around the world and also the u.s. role in what's happening in syria. well earlier we talke

r t tripoli libya. for the discuss this further i'm now joined by john last line from the remark we see in cooperation in a paris not many thanks for joining us now as we just heard in that report from maria from both sides of the conflict are accused of human rights abuses now when gadhafi and ghazi for example the west is seeking civilians now get out these hometown of sort of under attack what about the civilians there. well you know to paraphrase george or world an animal farm some civilians are more equal than others i don't think anybody seriously bought the line that this intervention was about protecting civilians that was merely the fig leaf the legal food leaf that france britain and america used to overthrow gadhafi and i've been on your show several times on your channel several times about this issue and i've always said that their principal goal was regime change that has now been achieved in spite of the very interesting report that you've just carried on the pockets of resistance i'm afr

euphoria in tripoli. the head of libya's national transitional council appears in the capital to outline plans for the future. an explosion is leaking fuel in the pipeline in kenya's capital claims more than 120 lives. >> fresh fears for the global economy. markets are volatile amid concerns that greece will default on its debt. surviving japan's tsunami. we talk to some of those left behind after the world they knew washed away. it is 9:00 a.m. here in singapore. >> and 2:00 a.m. here in london, br pbs in america and around the world, this is "news day." >> hello, and welcome. the head of libya's transitional government has told thousands of supporters that the country will avoid extremist ideology and promote moderate islam. mustafa abdul jalil was delivering his first public speech since arriving in tripoli at the same spot previously used by colonel gaddafi. >> they came in their thousands to tripoli's marta square where colonel gaddafi used to give some of his speeches. now there's a new leader, must

just south of the capital tripoli known for its ardent supporter the embattled. actually many a very skeptical about this mission saying it's no longer aimed at protecting civilians actually be able to rather as the one aimed at helping the rebels take control over the rest of the country the virtually culturally to majority of the country but the sealed remain several polls at least for as a sad held by khadafi forces and we're using you mentioned bani walid as well as sirte in terms of places where the rebels actually do not have control i think this is important to point out because it's very different than some of the accounts that we've seen some of the video that we've seen celebrations going on there talk a little bit about. you know the fear that still exists on both sides and also your take on the national transitional council. and to what extent do you think that they are a unified front. it is you're absolutely right the timing of the space it is very strange because it looks like. a leader is came to. tripoli to leave here to take parting celebrations

roof notion r t tripoli libya. and. from the institute for democracy and cooperation in paris says that the cameron sarkozy visit to libya on the lies is the real goal of the nato strategy. i don't think anybody seriously bought the line that this intervention was about protecting civilians that was merely the fig leaf the legal feed leaf that france britain and america used to overthrow gadhafi the west by overthrowing gadhafi wanted to maintain the fiction that the entire world is moving towards a western dominated model of pro western model it wanted to show that the arab spring movement was a movement for liberal western style democracy and of course as soon as a country. as a regime stood in the way of that apparent wave which was the case of libya it's regime was brushed aside that has now been achieved and that's why david cameron and nicolas sarkozy have gone there today it's to demonstrate that fact and it's to publicize to show to the world their victory at least in their own terms. and as you can read the edi

loyalists even here in tripoli situation is very complicated by reports about that. and months after tripoli fell into rebels hands those who back the old regime remain defiant but fearful in parts of the city the rebels triumphant campaign feels like it's never happened or did so somewhere else. who will do anything for moammar. even if we have to do. seven support for the ousted leader to solve once they see our camera yeah. like. now we're coming out with it tell them. why. it's the same situation with others. of his hundred percent good we don't want this revolution we don't know the rebels we want them to go away. we are from television so couldn't tell the camera no no thanks if i paid from a camera they will send the bill to my our war room the criminals you don't know them you call them the rebels hey guys do you remember the black guy he was arrested a few days ago after here appearing on t.v. don't do that you flags new slogans news pages. and the rebels were out celebrating again this week when the head of the national transitional council libya's new auth

engineers and kooks men and women have been arrested here in tripoli shortly after the rebels took the libyan capital and have been put into one of the rebels' training center here in the capital after they've been accused of been snipers of khadafi we have been able to speak to the detainees and they deny all allegations because of additional for some reason the finger of slavic people are snipers we have nothing to do with that we came here to earn money peacefully that these people say that they've been provided with food and water but some of them have been severely beaten and tortured by the rebels the russian embassy has actually managed to release two owners of the russian passports and ukrainian couple but around twenty other ukrainians us to been held by the rebels here in tripoli this group of the ukrainian embassy refused to take them they said they don't have running water they said that they don't have proper accommodation. they would be better to stink of c.b.c. . as well the latest what we're hearing from bani walid southeast of the capital tripoli where the fighting ove

representatives will meet with the national transitional council in tripoli soon. the libyan rebel leader said he believes gaddafi is still in the country. he made the statement in an interview. >> we cannot say exactly where he is, but we know for a fact that he is in the south of libya. it is very dangerous to have gaddafi on the run with that much money in gold with him. it is not only dangerous for libya, but for all arabs. he is planning revenge attacks that will harm a lot of people in the area. >> have you made any progress at all in actually catching him? >> the troops loyal to gaddafi have moved to the south. and the fact is that the rebels have not yet been able to cross. there will be a lot of fierce fighting in this area. in order to move south was a lot of equipment that we do not yet have. but we have asked for support to get the right equipment in order to conquer these troops and proceed to the south to capture colonel gaddafi and his family. >> you say that he is planning to carry out attacks. what kind of attacks are you talking about and where? >

intelligent, you know. >> tripoli has a new start without colonel qaddafi. during the time he was the west's friends could still sing britain and america, a last revenge on countries that became his worst enemies. >> on the ground in libya, forces of the national transitional council are sounding increasingly confident about taking control of the bally walid, one of the final strongholds of qaddafi's forces. our correspondent, ben brown, is near the town on the road with n.t.c. forces. >> for now, at least rebels are not fighting, but singing their songs of victory and liberation. even so, they know they cannot yet claim that all of libya is free, not until they've dealt with the final few pockets of qaddafi resistance like bani walid. one rebel fighter told me he fears sooner or later there will have to be a battle for this town. >> what are you waiting for exactly? >> somebody inside will give a center if we can enter inside or not, waiting our time. because we have many team, you know. >> are you ready to fight? >> of course, we're ready. all of them want

so use worry if you notions are right for us there in tripoli thanks for that report. meanwhile british prime minister david cameron has called for an inquiry into claims u.k. intelligence agents extradited terrorist suspects to libya where they were allegedly tortured allegations surfaced after human rights groups in tripoli found documents outlining m i six and cia rendition programs but former british intelligence officer any mashad expects the probe to be swept under the carpet. when david cameron calls for an inquiry into these allegations he's been credibly disingenuous under the u.k. law and inquiries act two thousand and five any inquiry this is established including this in this torture inquiry headed up by somebody gets them it's circumscribed by the very organizations that are being investigated in this case my five and i six so it's going to be toothless plus of course the other consideration with this is that subpoena keeps to himself he's heading up this inquiry was actually intelligence services commissioner for five years prior to taking on this role so

well is theory known as benevolent southeast of the capital tripoli some two hundred kilometers from the place where we are now has all the time been considered as good as his main stronghold. played this is also is the name for the tribe population this area one of the biggest lee bin tribes and staunch and they devotion to the embattled colonel its plate. prominent role during the current uprising he libya since the beginning of the events here in february people from these tribes have been fighting against the rebels all across libya volunteers from this area have been dying for khadafy in misrata things bragger and in other cities they've been all the time ardently support colonel who's provided them with the best weaponry and the best ammunition and actually khadafi himself as well as his sons have all the time in thought to hide in that area and that's why many here on the ground are saying that if the rubbles manage to take this stronghold that will officially mean the end of the colonel and the regime's fall so as you can understand what's right now going on some two hundred

well the latest what we're hearing from bani walid southeast of the capital tripoli where the fighting over could off is last and main stronghold has been continuing in the last few days is that the rabble forces have reportedly reached a deal with the conductor's loyalists on the ground to and to the city without fighting this information is yet to be confirmed but if the research you do the research an agreement between the rebel forces and gadhafi forces in belo will lead that actually would mean a breakthrough this battle is very important in terms of ending a six month long conflict here in leaving this area is strategically very important people populating this area tribes from this area have played a prominent role in the current uprising in libya they've all the time since the beginning of this conflict in february been supporting khadafi they've been dying for gadhafi in fighting against rebel rebels everywhere in libya and gadhafi has provided them with the best munition the best weaponry and he's also relied a lot on these area so definitely taken control over these areas of

that really means bani walid and tripoli and the towns around them. -- ben gaza and tripoli and the townsaround them. but in a sense, it is not the most important noun that respect. it is going to be -- town in that respect. it is going to be where the final remnants of the regime lie. no doubt they will do it but it will take a very long time. i think that is going to pose a major security problem and tension for the council over the coming weeks and months. >> now thousands of cubans cued for hours to pay tribute to the late defense minister who died over the weekend of a heart attack. he was a close associate of president raul castro. his death puts a focus on the fragility to have cup's aging leadership -- of the country's aging leadership. >> one of the original revolutionary fighters. his death was marked with full military honors. throughout the day, thousands of cubans of all ages filed past his portrait in the lobby of the ministry of defense. outside the line stretched as far as the eye could see. julio rigero was a trained accountant who gave up his job in the late 1950's and h

tripoli libya. well it's been just two weeks since tripoli fell to the rebel forces but the interim government is already being criticized by its own allies a key rebel military commanders are calling on the leaders of the national transitional council to resign for being acts khadafi loyalists political satirist ted rall sees a new civil war brewing i have some sympathy for. the lobby and his call to get rid of all the former regime figures i mean it's not much of a revolution if you have former officials from the exit from the government that has just been deposed certainly not you would see any kind of division like that uses in a scenario where revolution is not fully realized and that seems to be the situation in libya any kind of revolutionary movement is an alliance of convenience but in the end where you end up with shah masood in afghanistan once said in the one nine hundred eighty s. in the war against the soviets first we kill the russians next we kill each other in libya they can kill th

it off it is effectively gone then you also have several down here in the capital tripoli people are chanting that is free country but it seems that there is at least one thing that still remain. of all the bear fear. one youngster finally agrees to talk. tripoli is now under the control of the national transitional council and we don't feel we have freedom to talk or to express our opinion if we see something in favor of gadhafi they can kill us and arrest us of course money and. the nineteen year old says many of his friends have been arrested recently for making critical statements about new regime ironically we're talking just a kilometer away from one of the dock is top secret jails for political prisoners known as abu sleen. the rebels they only represent themselves not the libyan people this revolution started with killings to intimidate through fear of their homes are covered in blogs amnesty international has recently accused both conduct his regime and the one which replaced it of committing war crimes including killings and torture of military prisoners and civilians these

cnn's frederik pleitgen is with the rebels forces in misrata east of tripoli. fred, my first question to you is that for so many weeks you and i have talked with nic, and we always think that it's on the edge. libya's on the edge of getting rid of the gadhafis. and it hasn't happened. but listening to nic tonight, and i want to get your take on this, do the rebels feel that they are very close to having the gadhafis or at least a going into these last bastions that are there? do they believe they strt strength and that saturday will be the end of it at least so far as territory is concerned? >> reporter: well, i'm not sure they really believe it saturday is going to be the end of it, candy. but i certainly do get the feeling they believe that they are very close to ousting completely the gadhafi forces from the town of sirte and from the town of baniwalid one of the few strongholds the gadhafi forces still hold. now, talking to the rebels on the frontline, they say they don't want to do that, go into these places, but they say they will if they have. to they ce

they've overthrown gadhafi they're going to have a proxy of client government in tripoli the next step is syria and so would go as the u.s. moves down its chap list of arab enemies what about the people who live in country are they really better off. and it's easy to get caught up in the fog of war and even easier to lose hold of the truth so in this libya lottery is the war really over and if so who came out on top we'll bring you a report from the ground there. they're taking the same risks with investor you know investors' money depositors' money that they were taking before and why because they know they'll be bailed out if there's a problem more money whole problem but in the lehman brothers case it was no money more problems so three years later has anything really changed or is mainstream just a personal piggy back to the rough system. this is some really hard because if you're living friends. oh i understand you had me at hello and then you lost me when you started doing a daytime talk show so if the american mainstream media becomes america's comic relief comedians it seems ar

tripoli libya. now some of the nato countries that helped else to colonel gadhafi are now rushing to secure lucrative oil deals in libya and it seems rebel leaders are all too willing to offer allies a juicy reward but one antiwar activists believes it's robbing the libyan people of their nation's riches we're in a situation now where the old regime appears to be over in libya and any aspiring new regime should be spending its time listening to the desires of the ordinary people in libya nor. listening to the lectures which i reckon they're going to be getting from the world's great powers it strikes me that this is like something out of the nineteenth century where the big imperialist colonial powers are dictating to. what is basically a leadership they themselves have selected about exactly who's going to get what france is going to get thirty five percent of the oil no doubt britain will be putting in a big claim for another thirty or so other countries will be following suit and all right just l

my hammer is a libyan rebel he got a bullet in his ankle fighting against gadhafi soldiers in tripoli but with a shot coming from his own side. i didn't even notice until my friend told me that my foot was bleeding he pulled the trigger by mistake he was so scared himself. this is a reality of today's libya for when the rebels triumphant march through the country tons of gadhafi is captured weapons have fallen into the hands of nonprofessional fighters one of the biggest stories was discovered at the top security prison in southern tripoli where inmates were released after nato bombed the area of the dude was the father of three young boys refuses to appear on camera still fear of revenge from gadhafi loyalists he was among the first to seen and helped destroy the arsenal. i don't want weapons drawn into the hands of my sons or the youngsters i'm concerned to our country will be going with goggles this is a very dangerous thing it's not a toy but with the country in a war with arms it looks like libyan kids have already developed a fascination for the weapons of war but. when i go out

in the capital of tripoli, bani walid.ing that area before the deadline, what have you heard? >> reporter: susan, basically negotiations have fallen apart, really now the negotiators are saying it's up to the military commanders to make a final decision on the fate of benani walid. it shows a rapidly changing libya. the colors have changed at this checkpoint on the road to bannie walid. the rebel's banner unfurled with a kiss, while a budding artist dabs the new colors on the wall. a sign old tribal loyalties are shifting dramatically. bani walid is the heartland of libya's biggest tribe and traditionally a close ally of the gadhafi ra seim. these fighters say they were always opposed to gadhafi and tried to explain away those old loyalties. >> translator: gadhafi bought off some young men with money, weapons and cars, this man claims. >> reporter: in many ways the bani walid stand justioff is a affair and they plan to keep it that way. there's no one else here, he says. i ask, you won't allow anyone in who isn't from the
