contempt for human rights, and it's no surprise that the press conference was tightly controlled by downing street. and aljazeera was not allowed to attend. instead, we were forced to ask our questions from across the street after sisi left. >> mr. sisi, when are you going to release 40,000 political prisoners? when will you release the journalists in jail? mr. sisi, when will you release the political prisoners in egypt? why don't you want to answer these questions? unfortunately, as you can see, the issue of human rights in sisi's visits to the uk has not been at the forefront of that agenda. rather prime minister cameron and sisi have chosen to focus on security issues, and trade issues, and other things, and that's what has caused a lot of anger. >> david cameron should not have let sisi walk out of the

stories. egypt's president, sisi said that he's ready to work for the safety of fore tourists after the sinai plane crash. he has been meeting with prime minister, david cameron in london. in romania, the prime minister to replace after the protests. the united arab emrys, the country that supports. former president, george w. bush, has made serious allegations about the role of senior figures in his son's administration in the september 11th attacks. he takes swipes at dick cheney and defense secretary, donald rumsfeld. suggesting that they had too much influence on the decisions to go to war in iraq and

afghanistan. he accuses cheney of circumventing the presidency by preventing the security team in control in the president's office, and he accuses former secretary of defense, donald rumsfeld of arrogance over george w. bush. the 2002 speech, listening iraq, iran and north korea. >> north korea is a regime arming with missiles and weapons of mass destruction. while starving it's citizens. iran aggressively pursues these and exports terror, while an unelected few repress the iranian people's hope for freedom. iran supports terror. states like these, and their terrorist allies, constitute an access of evil, arming to threaten the peace of the world

by seeking weapons of mass destruction. these regimes pose a grave and growing danger. >> earlier, i spoke to lawrence call, the former secretary of defense for george h.w. busher is, and he talks about why he thinks that bush was influence bid chainy and rumsfeld. >> do not elect a president, and the second george w. bush came in, and he had no foreign policy background. he didn't know germany was a nato and didn't know that pakistan was run by a military general. so when you put people around him who were as arrogant and forceful and dynamic if you will as cheney and rumsfeld, it was easy for them to sway him using 9/11 to do what they wanted to all along, which was to get rid of saddam hussein. >> rescue on rakeses are

underway in brazil, where a dam has broken, submerging homes. people are told to evacuate to higher ground. in pakistan, 150 people are thought to still be in side. at least 21 people died in wednesday's incident. guz not clear what caused the collapse. structural damage in the area due to an earthquake last week. aljazeera is at the site of the crash. >> for a second night running, rescue teams are trying desperately to dig corridors of gaping holes to reach people under the rubble of a large factory building that you see behind me. it is now the second night. and the attempts are being made to cut through the concrete and

steel in order to reach possible survivors who may be in pockets of air under the rubble. this industrial estate is situated about 30 kilometers south of lahor city, and it's the industrial hub of the province. reportedly, people are saying that the building collapsed because of poor construction, and despite the fact that there were warnings about the poor quality of construction, the owner decided to add another floor to this building. but right now, you can see that it's proving to be a very difficult task. hpakistan doesn't have the experience to deal with this kind of emergency, despite the fact that they have seen a deadly earthquake in 2005. pakistan will have to deal with such emergencies if it wants to save more lives, but reportedly, the teams are

working around the clock, with the hope that they will be able to find survivors. we were able to see some survivors pulled out. but as time goes by, hope is fading for others trapped beneath the rubble. >> the humanitarian agency said that over the next four months, it's expecting at least 5,000 refugees to arrive in greece from turkey every single day. it comes as germany is expelling thousands of asylum seekers. reports from berlin. >> parts of beryl in, multi-culti is what they have called it, adding to the ethnic mix. and they have been joined by those from the battle an countries, and they have hard choices from the german governments. they have left them trying to work out whether a hostile germany is any better than a life in professorty, where they

came from. >> on the one hand, they see it's a much better life. they have security, they have hospitals, and doctors and all of these things for the children, but on the other side, they feel this homesickness. >> in albania this year, more than syrians, and the numbers arriving here. the feeling has grown that economic migrants have used the syrian crisis as a trojan horse to come into germany on false claim. but the new asylum laws show one more purpose for german chancellor, angela merkel. for a start, they help to keep the right wing together and germany is a soft touch for anyone who wants to come here, but getting rids of tens of

thousands of people from the balkans can free up money and space for tens of thousands of desperate refugees from syria. the removals are already beginning. the police arriving at apartment blocks to for serbs and albanians and others that they have to go. it's a really big job, and the immigration al authorities and the police don't have enough resources to expel all of these people, but there are trained police talking to them, hoping that they will volunteer to leave. we offer them money to return home. the claim by the government that all of the war zones are safe, and that's not shared by human rights groups, some saying that they are at great risk if they choose to return. i wouldn't say that it falls under the geneva convention, but what we have is the situation, if they go back to

kosevo, it's a situation that wouldn't allow them to have a life and dignity. >> it still the fact, nearly 200,000 people from the balkans will be removed. however the desperate situation at home, if they think themselves worthy of asylum, their cases are damage of the syrian war. >> in central london, what started as a peaceful gathering, there were clashes between the demonstrators and the police. >> for an organization with no discernible high,y or leadership, the popularity has been growing globally in recent years, but for this demonstration, there are thousands marching under this banner. back in 1605, they tried to blow up the houses of parliament and killed king james, but this has very much become a symbol of the

political resistance. there are many people here representing different campaign groups from around the country. similar marches are taking place globally as well. and they hope that this will be a million mask march around the world. representing lots of different things when it comes to animal rights, when it comes to being against surveillance and so on and so forth. but in recent years, taking on the likes of the klu klux klan and isil, and the people are pretty much united under one banner, this one. >> the world architecture festival awards will take police in singapore this week. japan has been named as a finalist. the nakamura designed the chapel and has been speaking to us about it. >> the idea was not to create an object for a strong statement that overwhelms the

environment. that's why i liked the idea of an observatory and a chapel. when i mentioned how to go up there, i thought about the idea of spiral stairways. two individual projectries of life compose the architecture. a spiral is unsteady by itself, but when it's fixed to another spiral in the opposite direction at four points, it allows it to have the sideways pressure and gravity. there are various architecture in the world using spirals, but we are the first to use a freestanding structure in this way. the stairway's walls and gates, by entwining them, they provide roles, and we succeeded in a pure form of architecture using stairways, as they climb the stairs, i would like them to

reflect on their lives. being born in this world, and parents raising them, and as you walk around, you will encounter and pass by a partner, two walks of life connecting into one strain. the concept behind it is to design the pact way experience, and i think that's one of the characteristics of japanese architectish. that dan runs through too, and i wanted it to reflect in the work. i think that the couple's pathway and architecture and design are linked in the chapel. the western sunlight is beautiful. as the sun sets, it gradually changes to the color of orange, and it's spectacular. it's exquisite when the sun sets just behind the tree and the light pores into the chapel. when you go there, the bright, positive energy fills you, and the spiral makes you feel as if

you're levitating, and it lifts you up from within. >> it's a beautiful building. for more on all of the stories that we're covering here, aljazeera.com, the top story, and the egyptian president's visit. in the uk. jazeera: stand-up comedian mo amer. >> it's like, "are you a terrorist"? like literally, "are you a terrorist"? i'm like...
