indian welfare system so they become self-sufficient setting a better business says and looking for work independently but for some it's not enough. if you're looking at this from the outside you would really wonder what was going on but what is this gross is that a religion that they have an in-depth exploration of global capitalism and our obsession with economic growth this is still the center of capitalism there is no limits i view myself as a capital artist we are trying to abate as a world smaller and smaller we don't want to be set realistic in the world we would rather have a fantasy growing pains on al-jazeera. the police in hong kong are trying to drive protesters off the streets as
7:49 pm
demonstrations go into their 10th week. from our headquarters here and also coming up. israeli soldiers forced palestinian worshippers from parts of. the u.n. says 40 people have died in recent fighting in yemen separatists have agreed to a cease fire in the port city of aden also ahead. people here say they desperately need help and that they have been abandoned by the venezuelan government.
7:50 pm
ok let's get going live pictures on our top story from hong kong where riot police are trying to drive protesters off the streets in the latest of a series of demonstrations police have fired tear gas jury in clashes in the past few hours of rallies which have not been authorized by the relevant police authorities the city is now into its tense week of unrest activists have also been demonstrating at the international airport to make the rioting tourists aware of their campaign rob mcbride joins us live now from hong kong rob why have they taken the decision to try and push the people off the streets might make it worse before it makes it better. it's interesting peter the police have been accused of using tactics which are inappropriate of being heavy handed the protesters say it's outright brutality and that seems to have made the situation worse and brings more people out onto the streets but then you get
7:51 pm
people on the conservative pro beijing side that says look these are thugs these are people who are ruling hong kong's future come on get tough with them you've got the tools to go out there and show them who's boss and i think maybe we have seen a bit of the latter on this particular day we've had a another day of the typical hong kong protests they start quite peacefully almost an accountable type atmosphere as you mentioned that the protests that were taking place today are not allowed to have taken place they didn't have permission from the police nonetheless thousands of people turned out police were nowhere to be seen they just basically allow people to take over the streets they they have their own marshals of the marching along that seem to control the traffic but then as predictably perhaps again the ends in these violent clashes the protests we've been following in particular this has been on the cow district of hong kong from a area called champs and basically thousands of people marched all the way across
7:52 pm
the calhoun peninsula to this place which used to show one when they people reached here thousands of those simply went home but there was always of these protests a hardcore that advanced on the police station that's in this area joe and they advanced as they have done many times before build a barricade put up the umbrellas to get closer and closer to the police station basically trying to get within throwing range and they were using not only a few rocks this time but also marbles being fired from catapults devices there are . different types of devices being used and police did respond in force there was tear gas and also quite a few rubber bullets and then after that him. this particular area of police really did come out in force whole squads of riot police took to the streets very much just stamping their off already wants more on this place that they are in control but there is still some trouble going on you mentioned there that there is
7:53 pm
a skirmish that's in another part of this kowloon district it's in a place called chimps are joy at the police station that has been targeted before where there is another standoff continuing peter rob many thanks israeli police have moved into the mosque compound in east jerusalem after a standoff with palestinians at one of the gates to the holy site at least $37.00 people were injured the trouble began when right wing jewish groups demanded access to the area under a status quo agreement that only allowed in on certain days i mean joins us live now from east jerusalem order just get us right up to date what's been going on there in the last hour or so well. $1330.00 local time so $1030.00 g.m.t. about half an hour ago a group of these really jewish religious nationalists did get into the. compound we heard sort of a. there was an uproar part of the muslim palestinian worshippers there but we
7:54 pm
didn't we didn't hear any kind of violence. as we had seen earlier in the day certainly they did went into the complex under protection of the israeli police and we understand by now is that they left already now that should not have happened because as you said just now. jewish worshipers are allowed to go into the compound on certain days only and today is not one of them simply because it is a muslim. festival. and the status quo agreement known muslims are not allowed to access the complex at that time that prime minister netanyahu who had taken the decision not to allow these right wing jewish religious nationalists a lot of them being also settlers to get into that compound came under attack from
7:55 pm
some of his right wing coalition partners telling him that he was caving in to intimidation some went as far as saying that he was caving in to terrorists and that is probably why he reversed that decision do you think it will carry on being this tinder dry this combustible. well i think the next few hours are going to be are going to really tell us what's going to happen next but i think she day these groups were adamant to get into the compound simply because today is also a jewish commemoration day they commemorate the destruction of the 1st and 2nd temple and many of these people believe that it's actually below. mosque so if it did have these 2 religious days coincide muslim and jewish going siding on the same day that doesn't happen very often what does happen is usually when tensions flare
7:56 pm
up you never know if it's going to continue and become much bigger or if it's going to calm down that is something we're going to have to see later in the day last night for example many of these jewish right wing religious nationalists where parading in the streets of jerusalem they were chanting many palestinians found that extremely provocative we're just going to have to see if that's going to happen again today you'll keep us posted i'm sure in the meantime thank you very much ok let's take a look at what makes the mosque compound so very significant well the area is central to the israeli palestinian conflict and has been a regular flashpoint as both sides lay claim to it jewish worshipers refers to it as temple mount which is built on top of the western wall is the holiest site where they can pray for muslims the compound in occupied east jerusalem is the dome of the rock and the mosque which represent the 3rd holiest site in islam and the
7:57 pm
states of jordan is in charge of the mosque compound let's talk to ben white he's an analyst and author of cracks in the wall beyond apartheid in palestine and israel he joins us from london great to have you back here on al-jazeera what's your reading of where we are right now in occupied east jerusalem and how do you think it will play out. well there's always the events that occurred specifically today and no wider context and as your correspondent reported and the immediate reasons for today's violence has been 1st and foremost the attacks by the israeli police forces of palestinian worshippers inside alexa last compound and then of course the effort by so-called temple movement activists to to enter the compound on a day when it is both a deal at and for the jewish festival of titian of but it's important to remember that this is not primarily about a quote unquote religious conflict or competing religious claims to worship there
7:58 pm
are many jewish religious authorities who actually believe that jews should not enter the compound and this is really a long there's a long standing campaign by these radical circle temple movement activists and they they are bent on changing the status quo within the al aqsa mosque compound and they have friends in high places in the israeli government and meanwhile you know when you take a look at the city more generally the israeli government was heading towards a fresh new election in september netanyahu wanting to keep the religious right in the right general on his side israeli government and settlers are accelerating our efforts to advance various projects in occupied east jerusalem getting your city in it and its environs that's included recently the eviction honesty of families in neighborhoods like sichuan secluded efforts by israeli occupation forces to crack down on palestinian youth especially communities like we're and of course we've seen the mass demolitions really impressed it it must demolitions and sort of
7:59 pm
a hit as well ok and on the depression just interrupt you for a 2nd though i mean clearly the dynamic as you've identified there clearly the dynamic for benjamin netanyahu is you know stability and peace through security keep israel secure keep israel safe and yes there's the elections and yes some analysts are saying well actually. election to come is an election between the right wing and the far right wing but is there a sense in which the palestinians are failing their people the palestinian leadership they arguably are giving israel an open goal here because where are they what are they saying what's their message to the palestinians within the context of this time of being muslim and being a religious muslim. in jerusalem specifically. you know for a long time now palestinians and jews have struggled with the issue of an absence affected national leadership you know the palestinian authority is is prohibited by it by the israelis from sort of operating freely in jerusalem and local community
8:00 pm
activists often targeted by these radio authorities or arrested harassment another you know the types of persecution so for palestinians in jerusalem there is there is a real issue about about leadership about be able and this is why it is often sort of particular spikes within neighborhoods and you know events around the lexicon have the potential to provide why do communal struggle i mean i'll see a couple of years ago around around the al aqsa mosque compound in the back of the gates and you know it's hard to say whether the events today will escalate further along those lines and but yes there is that there is a real problem with leadership but that goes of course more broadly with the national division that in fact happen tennis in jerusalem specially palestinians are facing a difficult a very difficult situation of isolation fragmentation in the face of this concerted effort by the israeli authorities and settlers to to press home what they see is
