long office tony blair and if we go down that road if they try to attack syria or intervene there or anywhere else then this will be a very very serious situation which will lead us closer to war in the middle east and all through we already have a situation where there's quite tension between israel and egypt over the sign on the last last few days we know that the saudis intervened to stop the movement in bahrain at the same time as the west intervened in libya and therefore these things were connected the lesson of history in the middle east is that they do not need the british will refrain through retaliatory americans or anybody else to intervene in their countries the arab people are quite capable of making their own decisions and whether they win or lose it's much better that they do make their own decisions rather modality plans and on france or britain as they will pray as this new government will open. the way this is being reported by. i the media in fact i'm just learning here on the wires that a journalist has indeed been shot inside the gadhafi compound journalists from

blair and various other people responsible for the disastrous episode in iraq in particular who want indicted in this war so you think they could definitely when they are captured should face trial in libya and that should be no foreign intervention whatsoever in their fate. i think it is absolutely up to the libyan people to decide what they do with gadhafi and with anybody else that they if there is evidence they should they should be dealt with in libya and not in the hague or anywhere else so i feel that the whole western intervention around this has. to they were caught taken by surprise by the average brain and what they're trying to do is to reassert western control. well for more on this let's now cross live to richard spencer he's a us based journalist joining us there on his web cam in the usa thanks so much for being with us well we've been getting conflicting reports from the rebels over the situation there in tripoli for almost two days now how credible is the anti gadhafi coalition do you think. i think it's incredible i think would be us as accomplish is to establish a

blair and various other people responsible for the disastrous episode in iraq in particular who wanted to i think in this wire if there is evidence to put him on trial they should they should be dealt with in libya or not. or anywhere else. the question of could our fees aware bounce has yet to be answered but he could be hiding in the tunnels of tripoli that's according to dr gupta a more director of the german orient institute based in berlin. appear in the rebels were in a situation to advance small to barboza zia to the compound in which duffy might still be i mean he would be there in the bunkers in the underground bunkers and not not on the surface so during the last hours apparently the rebels have advanced somewhat to that part of the city that the socialist and part of tripoli's durfy is very erratic in his behavior in three difficult to say what will he do i mean his son and the television yesterday said no no my father you still here and we are fighting and he is not. the man to run away like the other dictators did but on the other hand side i'm quite sure that he must have

committed in iraq well so you know tony blair was good friends with the guy with the farting camels the aaa what the forty camels of tripoli back on the show well now blair is of course one of these fainting bankers of wall street so this also brings me to continue with this my own tonic markets theme i mean these guys have my attorney this is a stacy herbert original tonic markets theme. headline reads max bernanke he under pressure to calm markets so you know ben bernanke he is speaking at jackson hole tomorrow and he's under pressure to calm these markets remember i said these fainting goats they faint when they're startled so these these goats these banking goats are threatening to pass out again but i want to bring up one thing about these fainting goats according to the wikipedia older goats learn to spread their legs or lean against something when startled and often they continue to run about in an awkward stiff legged shuffle so you don't need to faint if these bankers can just come up with an awkward stiff legged shuffle they can still stay standing you know do the awkward

blair opened this paul i.i. hall last week and so on it's a moralize now that he's good friends with the poor about what really should be done in a society that respects human rights while he is the guy who oversaw the transformation of the city of london into alluding economy not to mention the human rights abuses and genocide that player committed in iraq well so you know tony blair was good friends with the guy with the farting camels of tripoli what according to most of tripoli back on the show well now blair is of course wanted he's painting bankers of wall street so this also brings me to continue with this my own tonic markets theme i mean these guys have my own tonia this is a staged herbert original tonic markets theme. headline reads max bernanke he under pressure to calm markets so you know ben bernanke he is speaking at jackson hole tomorrow and he's under pressure to calm these markets remember i said these fainting goats they figure when they're startled so these these goats these banking goats are

blair and various other people responsible for the disastrous episode in iraq in particular who wanted to i think in this war so you think they can tap into so when they are captured should face trial in libya and it should be no foreign intervention whatsoever in their fate. i think it is absolutely up to the libyan people to decide what they do with kathy and with anybody else that they if there is evidence to put them on trial they should they should be dealt with in libya or not in the hague or anywhere else so i feel that the whole western intervention around this has been. too they were caught taken by surprise by the average brain and what they're trying to do is to reassert western control. when let's get more analysis now from freelance journalist chandan he's recently come back from libya and joins us now from brussels and you have been there in the country very recently why do you think that after almost six months of relative stalemate the rebels appear to have taken most of the capital in just three days well it's been reported the daily telegraph that essentially the brit

blair i think lots of leaders around the world we think go to braise tony blair the new liberal market ideologies and save the. recent years is the undoing of his regime just as that of egypt and tunisia and as for gadhafi it doesn't matter what he does in all these countries it depends on the structure of these countries i must realize that the people we see on the streets in tripoli they seem to come from a class very different to the poor in libya they seem to come from an educated class many of them foreigners as well as of course in certain areas people from the south the idea of individualizing this conflict is a good athlete. anything to do with it is like they are saying that the this as a nation watched. catalyzed world over i should have to leave it there we are out of time thanks for being with us live here in r.t. there not an actual return journey is there not. well rebels now control colonel gadhafi is fortress in central tripoli but violent clashes continue throughout the capital and over the u.s. defense department says it has another concern the security of sites in li

blair jack straw and david miliband have refused to reveal whether they knew that policy led to a number of people being tortured the ministers in agents who british knew the public would be outraged according to the guardian it includes warnings that if it got out the policy could lead to increased radicalization. agrees it's true anybody would get radicalized if you hear about the types of torture that took place however when the government said that they will hold to account those people who were involved in torture and we take them to the wood and if the government ban goes against that. but it's going to be in secret you will get to see those people involved in your torture and then people will lose. any supporting any idea that the government is actually going to try to. carry out justice many fear the inquiries that to begin shortly will be ineffective and that a second one will be necessary at vast expense but there's also concern that creeping revelations about just how could the u.k. has been in torture and extraordinary rendition will lead to further radicalize whatever happen
