2:01 pm
finally prove bigfoots existence. welcome is ten pm here in moscow my name is kevin owen and first tonight or out the religious tensions in egypt that intensified following the fall of mubarak of no grown into full scale riots of the twenty people were killed and hundreds injured as clashes erupted between coptic christians and security forces in cairo began as a peaceful rally calling for justice over attacks on christian churches by muslim extremists quickly turned into the most violent episode since federal reserve aleutian military vehicles were clearly seen charging through crowds and plowing into people while army infantry fired rubber bullets and tear gas it's still unclear who spots the fatal scenes but media sado media has blamed christian
2:02 pm
protesters well to discuss the events in egypt let's talk now to mark glenn he's a writer for the american free press newspaper joining us on the line tonight from our either our believe will find out the military way of most of her getting things here do you think the violence flared up accidentally during the protests or do you think it was provoked. well it certainly would be easy to assume that it flared up accidentally but as we are. not in the situation anymore we can take that face value we have to ask questions at the least of which is which you just alluded to in the money go which is are these things provoked or are there any interested parties that stand to gain anything by by creating this this chaos remember that egypt has been any period of great instability now for six months and there are interested parties in all would like to see stability you have made this clear not just in recent statements but literally in policy papers that he had
2:03 pm
a villain since now for started years that it is a long term goal of israel and the united states to see these launches your country particularly egypt broken up into smaller countries have preferred really along sectarian lines in the case of egypt where you have ten percent of the g.t. million people population we're talking about eight million christians here. and there there are interested parties who would love nothing more than to see egypt broken up into different areas so that is it is easier to manage again this is an old military tactic divide and conquer and so we have to ask this question at this point were there interested parties involved in this and i do believe that the evidence supports this because the egypt has been a hot bed of american british and israeli spying now for decades and the fact that mubarak may have been a pawn to western into israeli interests for thirty years doesn't mean that they're
2:04 pm
not willing to throw him under the bus and bring in a new regime that is going to in the end further american western and israeli interests so let me get this straight we have a few sound issues there on some of your own so you're saying that this is a continuation of what happened in february pretty instigated from abroad. i believe that the evidence will eventually bear this out with the present case involving a church that recently of course the riot taking place we don't know exactly how life oh christian church burned down and now he's a riot king between ins and the egyptian security forces so what was it that what was the let match that fell on this very dry explosive situation that has caused it to erupt the way to the chance again we have to look at this strategically there are interested players in the area who will profit from this not the least of which
2:05 pm
is israel who has always maintained her position superiority in the area by making sure that her neighbors remain weak unstable and divided how these ongoing disturbances going to progress with regard november's parliamentary elections briefly if you can solve your problems realigned. ok again instability is the bottom line the parliamentary elections i'm i'm sure that this happening at this time is not an accident and the fact that we have the first calling for elections taking place since the fall of the mubarak government there are interested parties who want to make sure that these elections go in a certain way so that egypt can be maneuvered number egypt has a powerhouse state in the region it is the most powerful here nation and they want to make sure that egypt does not fall into the wrong hands and by that i would mean people who are decidedly anti israel anti western and maybe who have
2:06 pm
a fondness for forming an alliance with russia this is one of the long term e.g. coal to the west and mr want to make sure does not take is that russia back and. sit back in the sixty's mark pryor if you're in public program argue in their right to free american free press newspaper of the co-founder of the crescent and cross some of the earth movement on the line just about any way from here. well sure he sees last night we all saw the pictures what do you think about this story this is what we're asking the website's ny why do you think violence erupted in egypt as it did last night you know what knocks all about it there just eight months of course after the uprising toppled the country's leaders this is what you but this is what been telling us tonight here. about forty percent. say the you'll sure we'll soon see a regime far worse than that of hosni mubarak but a fifth of you point to a sectarian risk is the main reason for the violence twenty one percent of the think egypt's enemies from overseas are instigating the clashes that's on the minds
2:07 pm
of mark's thoughts on the rest of you sure the revolution in favor is simply just not over yet it's a continuation of it so you think on going tonight. to the trouble spot in africa now libya this time their heavy fighting for moammar gadhafi so much search shows no sign of abating however libya's revolution the forces claim that they are closer than ever to taking full control of the town but under siege now for almost a month they've made significant advances by capturing the university the main hospital in the convention center that it was the key base of the colonel's loyalist heavy fighting though still rages in some pockets of the city considered the most important stronghold of libya's ousted leader investigative journalist sam to south told me the assault on search is hurting civilians not ensuring their liberation. i think what's happening in sirte is really quite shocking i mean if you remove yourself from saying i support one side or support the other side what
2:08 pm
we see is a full scale assault on. you know great country populated area in which civilians are paying a very very heavy price now the reason why this is important is because the whole basis on which nato impose a no fly zone because of the conflict was precisely to defend civilians against military attack so now we have a few light. allies of nato doing what their enemies were doing a few months ago i have to begin to ask myself where is nato now why is nato not saying these are civilians under attack by a military force we have to stop we have to stop this attack and i think what we're beginning to see is if you like is that from a reemergence of a double standard what's happening in libya now is it's going to be a war crime the attack on sirte is a war crime and i think it has to stop immediately has to be negotiation they have to be allowed to surrender but more importantly i think if they don't surrender then you put the city under siege allow the civilians to free and they're not and
2:09 pm
they're not doing that confession continue in syria where opposition supporters are following the footsteps of a g. egyptian revolution reese to later in the program tonight we look at how russia is trying to help find a way to end that conflict as syrian opposition members gather here in moscow for talks. and the big story tonight now with the anti wall street protests since their full three demonstrate his voice is really getting louder and spreading wider from coast to coast in dozens of cities people have been taking to the streets to demand an end to the fat cat culture and economic inequality more important eyes in the heart of the movement in new york city. this demonstration that this group occupy wall street has really mobilized a lot of momentum and as far as the protesters value to remain and stay that clearly was the case this past weekend there was a bunch of protesters camped out outside of the new york stock exchange in lower manhattan and one man was arrested because he was sleeping in the walkway entering
2:10 pm
the new york stock exchange and that was the single arrest but there were so many people down there sleeping outside of it taking part in this demonstration that he only had room to sleep on the walkway before his arrest the demonstrators hung up a sign on the new york stock exchange building that said banks got bailed out we got sold out this weekend we also did see religious groups join this movement members of the christian jewish muslim clergy clergies in new york city joined demonstrators in lower manhattan to support them in this ongoing protest against corporate influence over u.s. politics families were also bringing their young children now in there to take part in this ongoing demonstration and there's a kickstarter called epic step that has to pay for an occupy wall street building
2:11 pm
in times square if just twenty thousand people log on to their website in support of this billboard these demonstrations popping up all across the country and i will for example thirty two people got arrested over the weekend for taking part in our bus station it's gotten so large that mainstream media in the united states has no choice but to cover it they cannot ignore it anymore and i think the tipping point was the arrest of nearly eight hundred peaceful protesters on the brooklyn bridge but even having said that though even the next day the new york times didn't give that story much room on the front page but now. mainstream publications such as the new york times and the mainstream media outlets in the us are turning their attention to this movement because you know alternatively see sions are covering this story it's growing bigger and it means free media doesn't cover it it's going to be seen as an absolute blackout to many people at this point in the us too many americans are involved for the mainstream media to simply ignore it any longer
2:12 pm
report or a correspondent in new york or u.s. correspondents of course following developments in the very heart of those events keeping you up to date on how those protests on fold and the loosely confirm our has been tweeting with hundreds of police officers trolling the city streets after last night's rest of the big apple looks like a military follow the action of a twitter feed so was updating our team underscored. russia could soon come to the rescue of debt ridden e.u. economies the helping hand was extended by the presidential aide however the details of the plan will only be discussed after europe comes up with a clear cross a strategy. reports. well this news comes from the presidential economic aide who said there have been meetings recently focusing primarily on spain in those meetings to raise the possibility of russia being able to buy some of spain's debt and so provide extra help for the use that crisis he also said that of the brics

high for me to get silver there in the cave in mr ourselves at this point please this constant phrases of things we can't solve let go that will shoot fire and if we find that we set out on a quest to find the legendary yeti in the mysterious mountainous forests of siberia . russia says its veto of the latest u.n. resolution against syria was not designed to indulge president assad's regime the statement comes as a delegation from the syrian opposition visits moscow to discuss solutions to the country's ongoing violence but he got his skin off from following that meeting. climbers of the syrian opposition or in moscow they've met with russia's and more two african nations me to go off and the main message being told to them at the moment is that even though moscow did could be a u.n. draft resolution on syria it does not support president assad's regime much it's important to understand that russia's veto was not designed to give a free hand or carte blanche to president assad's regime with the syrian government
2:15 pm
has missed the message it's high time to understand it he should go ahead with genuine not formal reforms have been gauging dialogue with all sides of the conflict not only those more comfortable partners moscow has been furiously criticizing the violence in syria throughout the entire conflict and according to the u.n. it's already taken the lives of nearly three thousand people just earlier we heard from president meet beautiful said that syria is in desperate need of democratic reform and even that if the current of tories will not evil to put these reforms through they would have to go but peacefully and not a result of any foreign military forces getting involved similar to how the events unfolded in are still unfolding in libya so russia blocked to the western backed the u.n. resolution which did not exclude the chances are for military intervention currently russia and china are proposing their own resolution which condemns both sides for the violence last week of thirty syrian moscow met with representatives of the
2:16 pm
syrian authorities but they are still here they say they are not ready to hold any negotiations with the opposition's just yet pakistan's arrest of the dozen suspects that follows increasing pressure from the us which accused the country of sheltering terrorists i want to fishley the to see eye to eye on many issues some in washington are ready to support action against islam a bad result is gone and she can report. the drums of war beating loud and clear washington calls pakistan a safe haven for terrorists we can now hear. coming across the border attacking their forces attacking an. afghanistan these and then disappearing into say. the economy network for one acts as a veritable arm of pakistan's internal services intelligence agency in pakistan is furious over the accusations calling them unsubstantiated and saying that
2:17 pm
washington came very close to losing a major ally in its war on terror if you talk about things i'm quite sure you know it says things that many terrorist organizations around the world which by which we mean intelligence things over the last ten years pakistan has repeatedly compromised its own sovereignty to help the americans in their operations the u.s. while chasing down suspected terrorists has been bombing pakistan with drones on a regular basis the strikes have killed thousands of civilians use of going it is not against our sovereignty it's also called the productive million it's the people that we want to build as friends in the spite against terrorism after the latest threats from washington fearing an even tougher assault thousands of pakistanis angrily rallied to say enough is enough for these people the u.s. is a hostile power it's china that they see is a friend in the americans in this one instance have hand it over
2:18 pm
a major hearts and minds victory to the chinese in pakistan inspiring china officially notified washington that any attack on pakistan will be seen as an act of aggression against beijing the pakistani prime minister praised his country's relations with china calling them quote higher than mountains deeper than oceans stronger than steel and sweeter than honey washington on the other hand seems to have mastered the art of alienating friends with pakistanis taking. america's accusations that they support terrorists as a way to shift the blame for the fever of u.s. policies on pakistan but the blame game may go up into full scale aggression the experts believe we need to elevate our response they will have a lot about support on capitol hill u.s. lawmakers have already signaled that if there is the will for tough action against pakistan they'll support it and when washington says the words safe haven for terrorists that's what you expect tough action and if it does happen pakistan would
2:19 pm
be the new afghanistan but with china as a friend and you clear bombs at hand sounds like a deadly combination for the united states and then a check not reporting from washington. and that's very subject as well. across talk the debate show focusing on what interests the u.s. is pursuing right now and pakistan. is the imperial ambusher there are we trying to punish the people who attack the united states we don't see most of that and there's a lot of argument for getting out very quickly so we will bomb much of the right ministry you know the republicans want to get a lot of very quickly how many tourists do you have to kill before you finally say enough's enough i mean the government there been no constraints on the number of people that have been able to be killed ten years of this no constraints drone attacks assassinations bombings killing of wedding parties at some point isn't it time to say a nasty enough. for
