on the streets that he step down immediately and till the constitution is dealt with the committee has been given one month to complete its work it is significant that the vice president almost eliminated with opposition groups and that among those opposition groups was the muslim brotherhood the muslim brotherhood is banned here just a few days ago they were saying that there was no way they would meet with the government until mubarak first step down now the brotherhood is it pains to say that its position has not changed that it has called these talks are not negotiations and it's only said that it went to go and meet with them and to see what was the position of the government how much it was reputed to do to meet them halfway and to put the demands of the people across as far as we can gauge the the need is one solution but it's not so much that people are fearing more violence it's really the uncertainty of what comes next we've witnessed various precisions being held by coptic christians as well as muslims they've come together and they've been praying for the people who died today has been called the day of matters the message that they've been putting out is that this is a people's revolution this is

a democratic revolution for the first time we've noticed a real desire for people to get back to work in some kind of normality the banks were open earlier for three hours there have been some businesses who have opened their doors the figures being bandied about is that this crisis has cost this country three hundred ten million dollars a day totaling three point one billion dollars so there is a very real desire from most people in the country that while they sympathize and empathize with the protesters for some kind of normality to return to the streets of egypt just yesterday the u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton speaking in munich said that the washington the american administration would support a government that is headed by almost sort of many now assume is widely regarded here as mubarak's right hand man and people prefer him possibly to a break but they certainly don't believe that a government headed by him will be anything different to what they face seen at the moment his nickname is mr torture because of the position he held for so many years in the intelligence service here he was the chief. egyptian intelligence someone

was kind of statements come out of the american administration they just reinforced the feeling on the streets here that the united states and european powers and the rest of the world really needs to stay out of egypt and if it is my colleague in england took a look at the phenomenon president obama started it is my belief that an orderly transition must be meaningful. it must be peaceful and it must begin now and then faithfully one after the other one the other governments followed suit. to show these democratic change has to start now. it needs to happen now to greater freedom and democracy in egypt and it seems the theme was contagious as the call for a new egypt spreads uncontrolled across the western mass media there were three hundred and fifty thousand people in the streets of cairo protesting for democracy this is how democracy happened but what right do u.s.

and european leaders have to get involved in what's essentially domestic unrest about dissatisfaction with a ruler who cares what they want in egypt certainly not these demonstrators at the egyptian embassy in london they supported you can redeem for such a long time and in fact they are they give the regime and now they are talking about developing a serious with the from the right side of this into obama's speech by the spammer so it could be seen on the fence so much and most of that. is not the same going on with what i just saying that's the appearance for a transition where is this peaceful transition it's a complete turnaround for the western world which is always supported hosni mubarak is a force for stability in the region the u.s. gave him one and a half billion dollars a year for his armed forces alone it was western support that kept mubarak in power betraying an inherent misunderstanding of the wages in society operates according

to chatham house and the way regimes like survive. is by making themselves useful. to do so they have to convince the world that. if they leave the muslim brotherhood. in egypt. it's the worst case scenario so the. minute you can see beyond. the fall of all of which suggests that western countries should stand back and let the egyptian people exercise that the president of the united states would call us to move immediately and. to make changes as if we are the fifty third state of the united states we are not trying to play a role in egypt steve chase a dangerous game for the west and we need to hosni mubarak enjoyed strong support from america in case the many is but now is the first sign of trouble that the court is conspicuous in its absence it sends

a message to friends and foes alike in the region when the going gets tough don't count on us the message that's likely to further destabilize an already deeply unstable because it was. seen to stay with us here on r t still to come human rights groups versus george w. bush find out why the former u.s. president ducked out of a visit to the land of cheese and chocolate. russia reports its commercial aviation with a brand new airliner about just been cleared for takeoff we've got the full details in a few minutes. russian authorities are searching for two people from the republic of believed to be connected to the deadly terror attack on domodedovo airport thirty six people were killed more than one hundred injured in the blast at one of moscow's busiest travel hubs almost two weeks ago it's thought the two men could be linked to the twenty year old currently suspected of being the suicide bomber his

body parts were found at the scene but russian investigators say they need time to determine if he was in fact the culprit meanwhile a videos emerge showing russia's most wanted man threatening an attack on the capital which action terrorists want to promise quote a year of tears and blood as artie's catarina reports many believe it's his way of claiming responsibility for the airport attack. in that video is standing with two other men both of whom you were first to ask his brothers the man on the one side of appears to resemble the man authorities believe to be the suicide bomber who detonated the explosive device adam idea the airport many also believe that this is one way to date the video despite the fact that it has been posted nearly two weeks after the blast vocal lot of the force has made similar videos before he has russia's most wanted terrorist and a leader of a terrorist organization that operates in the north caucasus previously of course

he has been found guilty of organizing many terrorist attacks the most recent of course being the moscow metro bombings in march two thousand and ten when dozens were killed and injured there has been no official reaction to the video so far earlier this week russian president dmitry medvedev met with the heads of the investigative committee and russia's security service the f.s.b. both these services have reported to the president that they have identified the suicide bomber they believe him to be a young man twenty your year old young men are originally from the north caucasus who was quite high on drugs intoxicated with some illegal substances which these security services believe is a one way that these terrorist organizations are controlling those that they set up to as suicide bombers they've also said that they could potentially have identified the men masterminding this terrorist attack that of course the details of that are

not revealed do that the fact the investigation is still ongoing but they've also said that they've arrested they've actually detained some other people who they believe to have been involved and preparations for the terrorist attack on the russian president has commended officials on all of the steps that they have taken but warned against calling the case closed too soon before every investigative action has been taken. artie's catarina with the latest on the investigation into the bombing of moscow's domodedovo airport almost two weeks ago. the new deal on nuclear arms reduction between russia and the us has come into force nearly a year after being signed by the two countries presidents the treaty known as start is being hailed as a proper reset of relations between the two countries but as artie's a postcard reports it's just the beginning of a long road to scrapping cold war era stereotypes. words put into action

a historic exchange of ratification documents and the news to arms reduction treaty between moscow and washington is officially in force and when it comes to the button that has worried the most over the years the one that would unleash nuclear destruction today we take another step to ensure it will never be pushed. to last for the next ten years the treaty said to reduce the number of nuclear weapons on both sides over a third an outcome which would have appeared impossible even a decade ago i think we will be presented with this historical moment the green light has been given in around six weeks russia and the united states will exchange full information on all their strategic facilities and in two months they will resume regular check ups of the new stocks and perhaps most importantly their reduction the pact was backed by both presidents but it still took months of hard

talks and internal dispute until the treaty was ratified by both countries parliaments and even then only after the two sides had made so-called special statements or recommendations but they were non-binding and will not affect the actual implementation of the deal the original text remains untouched to remember there were. threats from hoax on both sides but. and now we see that it was well the start treaty that started the reset process also on the table at the munich security forum was another initiative backed by moscow the building of a unified anti missile defense system which includes russia the united states and the european union all sharing the responsibility for the c.v.t. of the others according to city view i would offer maintaining a balance is essential for everyone security and he stressed this is a unique chance to work together. and if and agreement to discuss the possibility

of a joint anti missile shield doesn't automatically mean russia is ready to join the program which is being drafted without its participation or the idea of take it or leave it doesn't work here if we don't work together russia will have to compensate like it or not an emerging imbalance. getting rid of all cliches and we're receiving dividing lines that's the message boards by most here in germany a country which learned from bitter experience what being divided is all about but . a lot remains to be done to irreversibly overcome the accumulated historical cliches phobias and suspicions of all our countries need to follow the principle of the indivisibility of security we are ready to follow serious collective work in the key area of year a land tick in global policy the time has come to take a choice between common strategic interests and the immediate political expediency . but clearly not everyone is able to get rid of old stereotypes we are proceeding

with it because of the threat we face from iran not from the soviet union and. when you look from the former. this meeting in munich is fast becoming a major stage for people to look forward among other issues dominating the talks were the current unrest in egypt the peace process in the middle east iran's nuclear program north korea frozen conflicts and for the first time in forty seven years cybercrime the security there was that's the nickname this conference has been given by some since it's a great opportunity for world leaders and top level politicians to share their views on key contemporary issues and many say every year this forum reveals the true direction of global politics for the near future and this time in the case of russia and the united states for the next decade you've got this going to. munich.

it's no joke in moscow as skiers and the thousands slide into the capital and feel as years of body shapes and sizes from across russia test themselves and yeah and you will see a marathon find out what attracts them a couple of minutes. first though former u.s. president george w. bush has canceled a visit to switzerland citing security concerns but human rights groups say they've prepared a criminal case against him on charges of authorizing torture and that he simply scared of arrest journalist. believes it's unlikely bush will be held to account by an international court. my understanding is the center can constitutional rights has a two and a half thousand page document they're releasing in the next twenty four hours in geneva but it's difficult to know where to start with george w. bush because it's an entire car drive of people it's dick cheney it's called rumsfeld is dick cheney's chief of staff we don't have rumsfeld's memoirs this is about illegal wars and so on but this case i think centers around two individuals

in particular one of whom i've met a camera man for a qatari satellite t.v. channel who was incarcerated in guantanamo for years and we mustn't forget forty eight year old died a few days ago after being going to him for nine years also without charge of course and tortured i think international law has proved pretty useless when it comes to torture will any of these come to pass to actually indict all these people including of course tony blair here in britain very doubtful in the hague won't touch the people that really are responsible for torture in such a major scale and for training torturers at the school of americas and of course we must remember that the obama administration still has going to animal open so people are being tortured to this day. commentary from journalist. turned out of some other stories making headlines across the globe tunisia remains tense weeks after the ousted president ben ali left the country two people were killed seventeen injured in that season town of caffe when police opened fire on

been highly active in the indian ocean in recent years and three type vessels were reportedly capture the last year. the americans accused of spying illegally entering iran have pleaded not guilty on the first day of their trial in terror on they were arrested last year while hiking the at the iran iraq border and says they didn't cross the border and if they did it was just by accident accident but iran insists there are spies working for the u.s. at trial has increased the already high level of hostility between the two nations . those tensions with iran were stoked in an unlikely way this week when u.s. authorities discovered a book instructing iranian suicide bombers in the arizona desert of all places no one knows quite how it got. to the middle of nowhere there but the u.s. media was quick to make their own conclusions artie's guy young reports. a book found in the arizona desert has put america's most watched cable news channel on

high alert fox news alert on who terror fears the book was reportedly published in iran and contained information on suicide bombers that much was enough to trigger a sensational suggestions that iranians could be plotting something inside the u.s. they would not give us a picture of the book they would not say if it's personalized in any way or you know what trackers may have found basically no facts behind the story but that didn't stop the channel from making a big scary deal of it story although the reporter did point out at the end it could mean something and it could also mean nothing the international community is worried about iran but the american media go way beyond that seeking to make the country the wall bogeyman the biggest threat on earth no politician ever lost. new ever got negative publicity from apparently your own. industry states that whenever you have something negative that you want to say about the middle east. you can always attack you every chance is taken to toss the rain into

a stories that has no connection with it like this suicide bombings in moscow going to help us in places like iran to get more russian cooperation with afghanistan things like that are they going to wise up and help us a little bit the pick and choose style of reporting which shapes the american usage and it became all the more obviously in the wake of the week he leaks release of u.s. secret diplomatic cables despite having vast amounts of material at their disposal to choose from the new york times chose to go biggest on he ran with a four page article alone focusing on the country but they demonize ation of iran is not new in the u.s. media has been going on for years despite no prove to. iran was building nuclear bombs. or to kill us i feel that this is the most dangerous country in the world do you think the world understands how evil this regime is a nuclear iran can pass on nuclear military capabilities to terrorist organizations

so why is america sitting here like a patsy waiting to get spanked smacked killed what is it a whole city is going to get hit with a nuke some american news outlets have been major cheerleaders in fear mongering which back in two thousand and three legged stool war that was started online so the same people that want to cause regime change in iraq are now saying we need to do regime change in iran fear mongering can have major consequences creating a climate of scratch which could justify any action in the name of providing safety for the american people that's what happened in iraq where a friendly about long range weapons of mass destruction and links to al qaeda was whipped up to justify the invasion the reasons later proven to be false the question is could the same approach be used with a rant a bit of news about a suspicious iranian book in the middle of nowhere is nothing but as the news reporter pointed out in isolation this is just a piece of information we don't maybe know months from now maybe
