we've spoken to feel like their revolution has been stolen we've got rid of mubarak so that mubarak's that people should just go i don't know when the taste of freedom was short lived the military is in full power mass media is being choked and oppression still rampant force then i think they werent catching activists as much as they are doing now. take them to a prison i guess now they're being greeted by the want to kill or be believed this or that in the first place he's known simply as possible here in egypt a social network or with a twitter army of some thirty thousand followers the military throws of civilians have to stop you need to immediately this is you know one of the major demands we're putting forward one of many demands including transparent trials for the fallen regime and the purging of corrupt officials they say their freedom was short

lived and they got rid of mubarak you know other high ranking officials but now egypt is the same way it was on the floor january survive that middle of the face a little mubarak so many new marks now there is what you're telling them i running the country people like myself have been arguing for taking the high you to the factory as they can to the university speaking to the workplaces meaning that in every single word police we have an egypt that is amenable you know what it was never interested in politics in till january she was shot with twenty three pellets by riot police twenty of which are still in her like the pain is finally gone but her perseverance is not the barrier of fear is gone. and she will can. can you just fight to the end i want every every egyptian citizen to be treated as a human being every play chance to has their own vision of the egypt they're

fighting for some want to constitution and then free elections others think the new law should follow the vote but one thing that brings them all together is that this egypt is not the end. and he's in no way are cheap. products to the head from this are thrown out of court testing introduction of that it took on the. use of crimes against humanity claims the case is one side. of the florida whether the former i.m.f. chief dominique strauss kahn presidential hopes dashed is facing another trial. this week rebels in libya made significant advances battling government forces saying progress on their way to tripoli has been slowed by lack of support from nato germany has agreed to supply missions for the arts is continuing its strikes

did not originally back the operation some suggest that question of who's the shift in position to. the site was whether germany joining the nato bombing operation turns out you could move. to more volumes wanted just over one hundred days of air strikes and with just over two thousand bombs dropped by nato allies on libya the mission has run into an unexpected problem a lack of shells to drop where there is demand there is that roy and this is germany has agreed to provide the much needed ammunition previously berlin house of pain from voting in favor of the un security council resolution on libya a move that surprised some and good others but it may now be backing out of its decision the germans may not want to participate. they have decided the position does not preclude them actually sublime weapons in this case or systems some

believe germany is under pressure from other nato members particularly the united states friends in the u.k. to take a more active part in the libyan campaign at first our. ministry's told the foreign affairs minister don't go into libya it's a very bad conflict it was started by the cia and it's a dirty business don't go there so this is why you voted with russia and china now the backlash from washington is so tough obviously we are under pressure to do something to make up for this decision aside from peer pressure germany may be alerted by the possible financial benefits of making its weapons available for natives use in libya probably germany will get paid for delivering this to other countries but that is normal practice between current events in nato countries. out of the twenty eight nato members only eight are actively participating in libya with civilian deaths to its nato recently admitted to

a shortage of weapons and the ever relentless more market duffy still at the helm the coalition may be facing just the beginning of its problems. berlin is in a tough spot on the one hand it has disappointed need to by refusing to support the mission only being march on the other by agreeing to supply bonds it may now lose friends in other high places and whatever the real reasons for its contradictory policy may be germany could find that by trying to please everyone it may end up pleasing no one if you macos corti. well four months on the nato has a protracted intervention in libya has yet to yield its desired result with accusations of doing landing persisting political blogger rick ross off the using military mission was never high on the coalition's list of goals in the region thirty thousand nato way or missions over a country of six mouth million people including with nato itself acknowledges its

five thousand combat missions it's not a war. you know this is not simply a question of protecting libyan civilians from government violence and so forth this is a concerted long term military action nato it's the world's only military or it's one that is in charge of the two major wars in the world right now those in afghanistan in the movie i think you know we can do this thing with you know minor points of comparison but i think we should not be confused about what the true nature of the merkel army really organization. russia has condemned today for its continuing military action in their foreign minister sergey lavrov said arming the country to force colonel gadhafi to step down is a cynical political game with too many civilian lives at stake. and nato is bombing libya longer that it was bombing yugoslavia several years ago and there is no end in sight it's obvious that politics is

ordinary people he started questioning that he was reading in the united states with the economist joseph stiglitz who's a big critic of that way of bailing out banks and i think he was sending signals that upset the financial community so it may have helped him with ordinary people but you can't have made him a target for. the establishment. well it's coming stars can successfully who will now have to deal with the difficulties of a fresh start e.u. and the world's economic problems at large this week former friendship finance minister christine lagarde picked up the i left baton and got straight to work approving another charge of money to help greece placing preserved looks of what god has inherited. from violence on the streets of the middle east. to protests in north africa to europe. for portugal's credit rating has been
