This is BBC World News today with me, Tim Willcox.

:00:12.:00:18.

Proud of the killings and inspired by the atrocities carried out by

:00:18.:00:22.

Al-Qaeda - Anders Breivik boasts in court he has carried out the most

:00:22.:00:27.

spectacular attack in Norway since the Second World War.

:00:27.:00:32.

As Bahrain gears up for its Formula One Grand Prix, a damning report

:00:32.:00:37.

into continued and and necessary force against demonstrators. This

:00:37.:00:41.

is what we are seeing more and more with the demonstrators outside

:00:41.:00:44.

Manama. They start peaceful but then a young men come up with

:00:44.:00:50.

Molotov cocktails, confront the police and then the police are

:00:50.:00:52.

responding with tear gas. You can see they're charging down the hill

:00:52.:00:56.

towards us here. The death of the British

:00:56.:01:00.

businessman Neil Hayward in China, now the Prime Minister gets

:01:00.:01:03.

involved. But what did the British government know and when?

:01:03.:01:09.

Also coming up, a new technique to treat early prostate cancer.

:01:09.:01:15.

Ultrasound can do things faster and better.

:01:15.:01:22.

We are at war. We need a team. the ultimate super hero film, not

:01:22.:01:26.

just one but a crack team of superheroes as the world of comic

:01:26.:01:36.
:01:36.:01:44.

Hello and welcome. The killings, he said, where inspired by Al-Qaeda.

:01:44.:01:49.

The deaths of his 77 victims in Norway last summer, justified as a

:01:49.:01:54.

blow against multiculturalism which he claimed was destroying his

:01:54.:01:58.

country. Anders Breivik added today that his motivation was based on

:01:58.:02:04.

goodness and not evil. Matthew Price is in Oslo and joins us now.

:02:04.:02:10.

Yes, contrast the horror of Anders Breivik's crimes, the panic and

:02:11.:02:16.

screens, with the quiet calm of the courtroom behind me. The thing that

:02:16.:02:20.

I was most struck by as I sat in that courtroom a few feet from the

:02:20.:02:27.

descendant -- defendant, was often how polite he appeared. He had also

:02:27.:02:30.

clearly invested an awful lot of time in working out what he

:02:30.:02:35.

believes to be a very reasoned justification for the terrible

:02:35.:02:40.

crimes he committed. That made it no easier for anybody who was this

:02:40.:02:46.

thing to his words. Norway's most notorious killer was

:02:46.:02:51.

driven to court ban on time. As one of his defence team also arrived.

:02:51.:02:55.

The most important thing today is that he gets to explain why he did

:02:55.:03:00.

what he did. This, as far as he is concerned at least, was to beat his

:03:00.:03:07.

day, his voice, his words, his own twisted justification. The cameras

:03:07.:03:16.

were asked to leave. Breivik walked calmly, slowly to the stand,

:03:16.:03:20.

clutching 13 pages of the printed a statement he wanted to deliver.

:03:20.:03:24.

I have carried out the most spectacular and sophisticated

:03:24.:03:29.

attack in Europe since the Second World War, he said. I acted out of

:03:29.:03:34.

goodness, not evil. These were pre- emptive attacks to protect

:03:34.:03:38.

Norwegian Society. I ask that I be acquitted.

:03:38.:03:42.

For over an hour, Breivik presented us with his world view. His belief

:03:42.:03:48.

that as a white Christian Norwegian, he is no more a terrorist than

:03:48.:03:51.

indigenous peoples fighting occupation. These were not innocent

:03:51.:03:56.

children, he told the court, of the teenagers he had killed at the

:03:56.:04:01.

Labour Party summer camp on the island of Utoeya. They were

:04:01.:04:04.

actively working to uphold multicultural values. Yes, I would

:04:04.:04:08.

have done it again. This is what he would have done

:04:08.:04:13.

again. Some Norwegians are angry that a man who has admitted to

:04:13.:04:18.

these crimes is now being given a platform to express his views. But

:04:18.:04:23.

this man, a survivor from the island massacre who studies in

:04:23.:04:27.

Liverpool disagrees. Some people have questioned even holding this

:04:27.:04:32.

trial. I think it is important for the

:04:32.:04:37.

survivors who have to live on with this, to hear the reason why it

:04:37.:04:43.

happened. We have got to know a lot about that today. Just outside, the

:04:43.:04:48.

multicultural Oslo that Breivik so despises walks by. Past the

:04:48.:04:52.

buildings still damage from the bomb he set off here. He will give

:04:52.:04:59.

more evidence tomorrow. There were, of course, so many

:04:59.:05:03.

people who were affected directly by Anders Breivik. One of them is

:05:03.:05:09.

with me now. You were on the island that day and you saw him. How did

:05:09.:05:16.

you feel when he was giving his evidence today in court? Mixed

:05:16.:05:21.

feelings. On the one hand it was good to see him there, in a

:05:21.:05:27.

position rather different from when I saw him last time. And also, I

:05:27.:05:33.

think it was important to hear his twisted but still coherent ideas on

:05:33.:05:38.

why he did the things he did and see that they fit into a pattern.

:05:38.:05:45.

But on the other hand, of course, it reminds you more deeply about

:05:45.:05:48.

the people that have lost their lives and even more so, the parents

:05:48.:05:54.

that are here. And he actually mentioned your wife in court. She

:05:54.:05:58.

is a prominent journalist and commentator here, she often writes

:05:58.:06:01.

about immigration issues, he ventured not just your wife but the

:06:01.:06:06.

fact that you and she had had a child. That get very personal for

:06:06.:06:13.

you, doesn't it? Definitely. It had a very nasty taste to it. Of course,

:06:13.:06:17.

it makes you think even more about the things he has been doing. But

:06:17.:06:26.

once again, on the other hand, it really underlines the kind off

:06:26.:06:31.

world-view he is sharing unfortunately with other people.

:06:31.:06:37.

The sheer existence of people with a background in Muslim countries,

:06:37.:06:43.

whether or not they are practising, believing or not is a problem. The

:06:43.:06:47.

fact that we have a child together and that child will have me as a

:06:47.:06:52.

father is in his view, a threat and a problem for Norwegian Society.

:06:52.:06:58.

And that is a very nasty thing. is worth pointing out that you have

:06:58.:07:03.

a background in a Muslim country. One of the other things that struck

:07:03.:07:07.

me, you have already pointed towards it, his arguments sounded

:07:07.:07:12.

rational, thought-out, reasoned, hopefully not too many people

:07:12.:07:17.

agreed with them but there will be people who agreed with them. These

:07:17.:07:18.

are arguments about multiculturalism at immigration

:07:18.:07:22.

which are popping up across Europe at the moment and have been in

:07:22.:07:27.

political circles as well. Clearly his actions are the actions of we

:07:27.:07:36.

hope, fridge, dip -- but do you think his arguments are of a Fringe

:07:36.:07:44.

hit -- here in Norway? arguments have moved from the edges

:07:44.:07:54.
:07:54.:07:55.

to the mainstream. We heard from editorials, articles, books and

:07:55.:07:59.

even from parliamentary positions is a very big threat that needs to

:07:59.:08:03.

be addressed. Just very quickly, does that mean that he should not

:08:03.:08:07.

be standing there being able to put across his viewpoints and being

:08:07.:08:11.

able to reinforce those arguments? On the contrary, I think is good to

:08:11.:08:14.

hear those arguments in this setting knowing they are connected

:08:14.:08:21.

to actions which are inherently, there is an inherent tendency

:08:21.:08:25.

towards violence in political ideology that wants to get rid of

:08:25.:08:29.

all Muslims in Western countries so it is good to hear this in this

:08:29.:08:33.

setting rather than on a parliamentary rostrum. Thank you.

:08:33.:08:37.

It is kind of you to join us. Anders Breivik said I know I have

:08:37.:08:43.

caused an incredible amount of suffering, that will be no comfort

:08:43.:08:48.

to his victims. Thank you. With just days to go

:08:48.:08:52.

before Bahrain's Formula One Grand Prix, the human-rights group

:08:52.:08:55.

Amnesty International says torture and ill treatment continue. It says

:08:55.:08:59.

it has evidence of people being kept in prison for participating in

:08:59.:09:04.

peaceful protests and security forces are using excessive and

:09:04.:09:07.

unnecessary force against demonstrators. Bahrain's government

:09:07.:09:10.

have rejected the claims but the BBC's Rupert Wingfield-Hayes has

:09:10.:09:16.

been caught up in some of the violence.

:09:16.:09:23.

Another sunset brings another protest. Every evening, they take

:09:23.:09:26.

to the streets here in their thousands. Down with King Hamad is

:09:26.:09:32.

the chant, as it has been for more than a year now. Bahrain's Shia

:09:32.:09:37.

majority is refusing to be silenced. This is what we are seeing more and

:09:37.:09:41.

more with the demonstrations outside Manama. They start of

:09:41.:09:44.

peaceful but then young men come out with Molotov cocktails,

:09:44.:09:49.

confront the police, through the fire bombs and now the police are

:09:49.:09:51.

responding with tear-gas and their trudging down the hill towards us

:09:52.:09:59.

here. -- they are charging down the hill. Bernie Ecclestone says

:09:59.:10:03.

Bahrain is peaceful and say. Tell that to the people who live in the

:10:03.:10:10.

Shia villages. This is the image Bahrain's government would like the

:10:10.:10:15.

world to see. Many Bahrainis are delighted Formula One is back.

:10:15.:10:21.

Within the poor Shia villages, this is how the graffiti artists see it.

:10:21.:10:25.

The car spewing tear gas is being driven by Formula One supremo

:10:25.:10:31.

Bernie Eccleston and King Hamad. As race day approaches, this man is on

:10:31.:10:36.

hunger strike and close to death. Abdulhadi al-Khawaja is a democracy

:10:36.:10:40.

activist sentenced to life in prison last year by a military

:10:40.:10:46.

court. My father basically look like a skeleton with skin on it.

:10:46.:10:51.

His daughter, Zainab, saw her father last Sunday. She says he

:10:51.:10:56.

could die at any time. My father is everything. Even my faith in

:10:56.:11:02.

humanity. Losing him would be the worst thing. But I do know that

:11:02.:11:07.

this is a cause that is worth dying and I do know that my father will

:11:07.:11:11.

continue. He is not a person who will ever give up. He will continue

:11:11.:11:16.

fighting. Amnesty International has declared Abdulhadi al-Khawaja a

:11:16.:11:21.

prisoner of conscience and is demanding his immediate release.

:11:21.:11:27.

But the Justice Minister says only the courts can decide that. Only

:11:27.:11:32.

the courts can decide for stud he might be dead by then? I hope not.

:11:32.:11:38.

We are providing the best medical care possible. If he does die, the

:11:38.:11:42.

streets here could explode again. The young Shia Bahrainis who take

:11:43.:11:46.

to the streets every night are impatient for change. We want

:11:46.:11:52.

democracy, we want freedom. This government, when we ask for that,

:11:52.:11:58.

it straightaway tries to kill anybody who does this. A year ago,

:11:58.:12:02.

these people were calling for a limited change. Now they want King

:12:03.:12:09.

Hamad and his family to go. We can talk now have to Jalila al

:12:09.:12:14.

Salman, a former vice-president of the teachers as physician who was

:12:14.:12:18.

imprisoned earlier this year. Herr appealed for a civilian court is

:12:18.:12:24.

currently ongoing and she is out on bail. She joins us now by webcam

:12:24.:12:29.

from Manama. The Governor -- government says reforms have been

:12:29.:12:34.

implemented, you are out on bail, do you accept that some progress

:12:34.:12:41.

has been made? As citizens in Bahrain, we cannot say anything --

:12:41.:12:45.

we cannot see anything of these reforms on the ground. If something

:12:45.:12:50.

has been taking place, we should know it. For me, as an example, I

:12:50.:12:58.

am sat as a teacher. -- I am sacked as a teacher. I am not at work.

:12:58.:13:03.

They have not given any reason. government says all public sector

:13:03.:13:09.

workers who have been reinstated. He is not completely right. Most of

:13:09.:13:13.

them are returned back and reinstated but not for all of us. I

:13:13.:13:19.

am an example of that. What do you think should happen regarding the

:13:19.:13:23.

Grand Prix this weekend? Do you think that the Formula One

:13:23.:13:30.

authorities should pull out? Actually, I am not a political

:13:30.:13:35.

person but as a normal citizen in Bahrain, I see what is going on

:13:35.:13:40.

here in my country and to my people, I think yes, they should pull out

:13:41.:13:43.

of Bahrain. Formula One should not be here this year again because of

:13:43.:13:49.

what is happening on the ground. Bahrain is not safe. It is not the

:13:49.:13:56.

small island is to be before. It is not a peaceful place as people are

:13:56.:14:02.

saying. We are living in a war. many of your colleagues remain in

:14:02.:14:12.
:14:12.:14:16.

prison? We have 13 teachers in prison right now. On top of them is

:14:16.:14:21.

the President. We are appealing now. We must leave there, thank you. I

:14:21.:14:27.

think we can speak now on the phone to Fahad Al Binali. He is in Manama

:14:27.:14:31.

and a spokesperson for the Bahraini national information authority. You

:14:31.:14:38.

say you have bought about changes but it seems that nothing has

:14:38.:14:43.

changed on the ground. Are necessary, excessive force used by

:14:43.:14:48.

security agents against protesters. That is an unfair assessment. First

:14:48.:14:58.
:14:58.:15:01.

of all,... That is the spirit which led to the High Commission. That is

:15:01.:15:05.

why its findings were broadcast to the world that they are still

:15:05.:15:10.

available online for Bahrainis and anybody else who is interested. It

:15:10.:15:15.

has to be said that no other Arab leader has opened his government to

:15:15.:15:25.
:15:25.:15:27.

Amnesty says the reforms are piecemeal. No senior member of the

:15:27.:15:30.

security forces has been held to account for the 40 people that died

:15:30.:15:37.

last year. Many were arrested erroneously and sentenced by a

:15:37.:15:43.

military court. First of all, it has to be taken into consideration

:15:43.:15:48.

the report published its findings at the end of November 23rd, a few

:15:48.:15:54.

months have passed but a lot has happened. So, everything has

:15:54.:16:02.

miraculously improved in two months, has it? This is exactly why we are

:16:03.:16:09.

speaking to Amnesty International. A lot has happened on the ground.

:16:09.:16:15.

You spoke earlier about the dismissed workers, they have been

:16:15.:16:21.

reinstated except those currently under trial and awaiting judgment.

:16:21.:16:31.
:16:31.:16:37.

Earlier, it was said people were... Convicted in a military court,....

:16:37.:16:41.

The line is dropping out and we are only hearing half of what to say.

:16:41.:16:46.

Thank you for joining us. The other news: The radical Muslim preacher

:16:46.:16:48.

Abu Qatada has been arrested in Britain with the government

:16:48.:16:51.

announcing it intends to deport him. It's expected he will appear at a

:16:51.:16:54.

special immigration hearing in the next few hours after the Home

:16:54.:16:57.

Secretary made a statement to parliament. The European Court of

:16:57.:16:59.

Human Rights blocked his deportation to Jordan in January.

:16:59.:17:02.

It ruled evidence obtained by torture might be used against him

:17:02.:17:06.

if he appears at a court in Jordan. The European Union says it's

:17:06.:17:08.

considering all possible options against Argentina over a decision

:17:08.:17:13.

to nationalise a Spanish-controlled oil company, YPF. The move by the

:17:13.:17:15.

Argentine President, Cristina Fernandez, follows months of

:17:15.:17:17.

tension with Britain over oil exploration off the Falkland

:17:17.:17:24.

islands. A former London shop worker, who

:17:24.:17:26.

became governor of one of the wealthiest states in Nigeria, has

:17:26.:17:29.

been jailed in Britain for money laundering and fraud. James Ibori

:17:29.:17:32.

admitted stealing nearly eighty million dollars from the coffers of

:17:32.:17:36.

the oil-rich Delta state to fund a lavish lifestyle. He was sentenced

:17:36.:17:39.

to 13 years in prison by a court in London.

:17:39.:17:42.

A jumbo jet carrying NASA's oldest space shuttle, Discovery, has

:17:42.:17:47.

landed in Washington DC after a dramatic final journey. Thousands

:17:47.:17:49.

of people watched the shuttle being flown over the capital's most

:17:49.:17:53.

famous landmarks. Discovery will be put on display at the National Air

:17:53.:17:58.

and Space Museum at Dulles airport. It flew 39 times in space - more

:17:58.:18:04.

than any other shuttle. It's a delicate balance for any

:18:04.:18:06.

Western country keen to build closer trading links with China,

:18:07.:18:09.

but the death of the British businessman Neil Heywood in

:18:09.:18:11.

mysterious circumstances in China last November saw his case being

:18:12.:18:14.

raised at the highest levels today between Prime Minister David

:18:14.:18:20.

Cameron and a member of China's Politburo. Our diplomatic

:18:20.:18:28.

correspondent James Robbins reports. The Prime Minister with a man

:18:28.:18:35.

ranked No. 5 in China's political hierarchy. I warmly welcome you to

:18:35.:18:38.

Downing Street. The first chance to Britain to send a message directly

:18:39.:18:44.

to the Chinese leadership. Britain expects a complete and convincing

:18:44.:18:50.

explanation of Neil Heywood's death. What really happened at this hotel

:18:50.:18:56.

last November? It is here the body of the British businessman was

:18:56.:19:00.

discovered, at first the Chinese said he died of excessive alcohol.

:19:00.:19:07.

He was close to this man, Bo Xilai, brought down by accusations his

:19:07.:19:11.

wife was involved in murdering Mr Heywood. In the Commons, the

:19:12.:19:16.

Foreign Secretary was accused of reacting too slowly to the changing

:19:16.:19:21.

stories from China but William Hague insists it is not the case.

:19:21.:19:24.

We have demanded an investigation, the Chinese authorities have agreed

:19:24.:19:30.

to conduct such an investigation, there has been further discussion

:19:30.:19:34.

about that between the Prime Minister and the visiting member of

:19:34.:19:39.

the Politburo. I will also meet him shortly. We are pursuing this

:19:39.:19:43.

carefully and vigorously. Foreign Office is also having to

:19:44.:19:49.

explain a meeting between Jeremy Browne MP and Bo Xilai on the day

:19:49.:19:53.

Britain first heard of the death. Although this was going on in the

:19:53.:19:58.

same city, the government insists there was nothing initially to

:19:58.:20:01.

suggest there was anything suspicious. No reason to tell the

:20:01.:20:06.

minister. It is uncomfortable as Britain piles pressure on China to

:20:06.:20:11.

reveal the full truth. The message is unusually blunt. The government

:20:11.:20:15.

by insisting the Chinese investigation into the death must

:20:15.:20:21.

be free from political interference, and must expose the truth, seems to

:20:21.:20:25.

suggest it has real fears the precise opposite could be the

:20:25.:20:28.

outcome. A new treatment for prostate cancer

:20:28.:20:31.

which targets cancer cells with sound waves could control the

:20:31.:20:34.

disease with far fewer side effects than standard techniques.

:20:34.:20:36.

Researchers at University College London believe the findings -

:20:36.:20:39.

albeit on a small sample - could transform future treatment of the

:20:39.:20:44.

disease, which is the second most common cancer worldwide. The

:20:44.:20:46.

treatment fires high-frequency non- invasive sound waves directly at

:20:46.:20:53.

the tumour. The technique called focal therapy. 41 patients took

:20:53.:20:58.

part in the trial. And twelve months later none had incontinence

:20:58.:21:02.

- a side effect with other treatments. And just one in ten was

:21:02.:21:07.

impotent. Joining me in the studio is Louise Dickinson, who worked as

:21:07.:21:13.

part of the research team at University College London Hospital.

:21:13.:21:17.

This seems a significant break through but it is a small sample of

:21:17.:21:21.

people. How concerned should we be about that in terms of

:21:21.:21:26.

effectiveness? It is a proof of concept trial and a small number of

:21:26.:21:31.

patients over a short term follow- up so the results are encouraging

:21:31.:21:39.

but the next step is a larger trial, a medium term of follow up and also

:21:39.:21:43.

to recruit across a number of centres. And is the principle that

:21:43.:21:49.

by zapping these cancers effectively in a small way, you can

:21:49.:21:55.

get the disease earlier? concept is focal therapy so it

:21:55.:21:59.

targeting the cancers rather than the whole prostate. You're causing

:21:59.:22:03.

less collateral damage to the surrounding nerds and normal tissue

:22:03.:22:07.

and fewer side-effects. Is this a technique used with other cancers

:22:07.:22:14.

to positive effect? It has been but it follows other organ cancers like

include Thor and Captain America and as Tom Brook reports it's

:24:45.:24:50.

We are at war. We need a team. There may be an element of hype but

:24:50.:24:54.

this movie is like no other. France have been a poor night waiting for

:24:54.:24:59.

previews. I have been looking forward to this movie since I was a

:24:59.:25:04.

little kid. I love Marvel superheroes. I grew up on The

:25:04.:25:09.

Avengers. This would make an awesome movie and they have made it.

:25:09.:25:15.

I am stoked. What sets the film apart is it brings together several

:25:25.:25:26.

Super heroes into one picture. They include Iron man, Court Of Thunder,

:25:26.:25:30.

Thor and Captain America. They have served as a teaser for the new

:25:30.:25:35.

picture. There was a master plan and that involved creating a

who portrays the hulk sees it as a mix of different superheroes with

The film isn't just a creative endeavour catering to movie fans,

it is also a huge commercial enterprise. It has been estimated

:26:18.:26:23.

the budget is in excess of $220 million and is predicted it could

set a record for the opening weekend box office for a superhero

and with its box office takings are likely to be big, it is expected

there will be a sequel to this superhero movie.
