mohamed el baradei is a figure not well known in egypt questions are being asked and who supports him joining me in a few moments from the. ukrainians are trying to solve the case of the missing may here top official hasn't been seen in public six months. and his deadly shooting sprees hit us streets once again there are strong calls for tougher gun control but many gun every household is the sense of the american culture.
5:01 pm
a very warm welcome to this is from mosque a with me on a separate the egyptian opposition has come to the united for softer a week of bloody anti-government protests the exit chief of the international atomic energy agency mohamed el baradei is now the ghaith easing on behalf of opposition groups an internationally respected candidate he is viewed as the man who could oust president mubarak ru paul is clear has the latest from cairo. it's already been a number of hours since the curfew was put into place and yet thousands of demonstrators continue to defy it by gathering in downtown to hear square but coming always will be extremely telling in this unfolding story in egypt in history because early tomorrow morning is when the so-called million man march begins now here demonstrators say they will be making their way to going to be egypt's president hosni mubarak's prison in the sea towards his palace and handing over
5:02 pm
some kind of memorandum of demands the army says that it will not interfere but that is not what we're seeing here on the streets on sunday we are hearing reports of the army barricading all the roads in and out of cairo we know that the trains of the have been disrupted you know their buses have been stopped and people are finding it very hard to come in and the support to the residents of cairo from neighboring cities so having said all of that it has the ingredients for a showdown with some analysts saying that we could see environments on a par if not larger than what we saw last fine day in the so-called day of rage and i have spent the day talking to protesters on the streets as well as people barricaded in their homes and it's not clear that the majority of egyptians in fact support the appointment of mohamed el baradei as an opposition figure leda many of the people i spoke to had the criticism leveled at him that for the past thirty years since mubarak has been in power he simply has not even the country i mean as one protester put it to me it's our money if you arrive back at last thursday and
5:03 pm
course there were huge change when he himself was not here to experience that regime about he is a figure that is well known in the international community but he's not that well known here in egypt and he's very much closely associated with the united states with western powers some protesters telling me that they don't really see the difference between him and mubarak as one person put it to me it's not so much that they support it's while the that they hate mubarak the international observers have also been weighing in. i simply say that our baradei does not have the support and the backing at heart but other observers are going one step further they say that not only is al baradei the voice of america he has the interests at heart issues except what we have our administration because he was not the george bush man but i think the problem is for the egyptian public he doesn't really have the credentials and the career paths to make you more popular or populist because he said to call to so many years he's very much part of the shark an international westernized
5:04 pm
elite and after all one of the criticisms on the ground we hear of mubarak is precisely that the interests of foreigners who had to be egypt. has to in a sense to distance himself from what makes incredible to us in the west but it says he's at international cricket in order to get credibility with gyptian. belated attempt at getting in on this opposition movement well it may be too late he is part of the international crisis group a murky elite group with close ties to western interests as the people of egypt are shown such courage in the face of such u.s. backed terror that is occurred in egypt for the past thirty years to the people of egypt one. i think that doubtful at best this is a storm very much of the americans own making and i think the people will remember that the bullets fired at them are made in the united states and those jets flying over cairo alexandria so is another cities there are american so if this is
5:05 pm
a sudden switch by the americans to suddenly think well maybe we can baradei and i think it may be too late. aside from the interest of alpha here squarely on sunday and monday night the streets remain quiet there are still neighborhood watch the keeping gone of a couple jeans and a hose and there's still reports coming through of armed vigilante groups so the enormousness the chaos the uncertainty remains here on the streets of cairo three million frustrated ukrainians living in the capital kill of a looking for just one man the mystery surrounding the missing man at the eccentric learned in the via deepens as his absence from public life and is a six month even the prime minister's demanded to know his whereabouts. investigates the disappearance of the city chief. many if agree that over the past six months ukraine's capital has become
5:06 pm
a better place to live in but locals are bewildered as to who should take the credit as the man in charge of the city has gone missing. the mayor. definitely. in five years as city's top dog. has been a journalist delight from singing at a press conference. taking a dive in front of cameras to prove he was mentally sane the eccentricity of kiev smellier earned him the nickname spaceman among locals yes i am a spaceman absolutely true if he had gone to space it might at least explain the mystery of where he actually is that's because the last time should not be askew was seen in public was almost six months ago it is troubling not just ordinary citizens but those at the very top as well. urged the authorities to fine tune
5:07 pm
events in tell him that the people of kiev miss him and want him to return to work . after an avalanche of criticism was dumped and gives mayor following a devastating winter in two thousand and nine the city's snow clearing gear was overhauled by the government chimney cap he supposed but the real man running affairs is thought to be the city hall of ministration boss alexander pop off but he's giving nothing away about the mystery man. villa looks deserted only his mother in law was captured by our camera security guards say they have not seen its principal resident for quite a while. i saw him last year six months ago. even his. post has been. using. this whether it is from a look at the jury. resort in france or italy or somewhere else the location of where exactly and you should maybe it's queue runs the city from remains unclear
5:08 pm

retail stores this particular want to six hundred dollars my personal a springfield x d forty five to rally if they were ten twenty two it's easy to air use of the hands of politicians running for office commodore john mcmillan because he gives a rip about alabama and auburn not care to new code to the criminals the. many readily cite the country's second amendment that allows for this right to bear arms the vast majority of level headed americans realize it is a constitutional right and as such they probably don't have a problem with it. but with a population of three hundred seven million people and roughly three hundred million firearms owned by civilians in the united states with a constitutional right is now feared by some to become an obsession in the twenty first century. saying that people in the urban areas need a machine guns and a forty seven and so on is preposterous an obsession that can't be
5:10 pm
ignored considering recent acts of gun violence and the ease of access to firearms so in the united states for the average citizen like myself to purchase a gun i need to go through a background check with the federal government looking for anything from criminal history to mental illness and if i pass that you get anything from a handgun like you see here to a semiautomatic weapon which these are over here and even an automatic weapon like a machine gun for their. semiautomatic weapons like those you see here in the catskill mountains of new york. were jewish americans argued their firing off their second amendment rights to guard against the threat of terrorism we need to express those rights we need to own weapons we need to protect ourselves handguns like you see on the hips of store owners from just near the nation's. capital. to move to a southern town where gun ownership is actually mandatory in the south
5:11 pm
a gun is just part of the household just like a hammer isn't a tool box just. a tool a sporting good a means of self-defense or murder however you describe it gun owners say it's more than a firearm it's a symbol central to american culture and identity don't inform the minutemen stemming from a revolution. to cowboys to any of that kind of thing i mean the gun is actually a centerpiece of american history. a piece of history that critics say continues to warn the country what is the percentage of people who make a show say they were which were is are but those that go maybe five ten percent but if this five of ten percent is a billion arm that's a very dangerous for the social piece of the nation i guess lauren mr r.t. and chamber and out of washington d.c. well there's always more news of views on videos on law website on t. dot com here's the final thoughts on which we're going now the downfall of the run
