human rights and no intervention i think the west basically why happy to carry on with the military structure in egypt into peals or to that is really because the whole us any new government coming in that challenges the authority of military is going to have a huge effort on its seems to me the brashness be even before the elections taking place the west has to wake up you cannot on the one hand deal with kingdoms in dictatorships that repress human rights in the same time pretend to be on the side of the demonstrators democracy and human rights of all people the west is going to decide and it's reality we've got to say it's time for the military in egypt to step aside despite all the weapons and everything they've been fed over the past few decades by the worst. now for more coverage of the protests that are once again shaking egypt visit our website at c.n.n. dot com egypt's an army is reportedly meant speired by the so-called efficient

12:08 am
a similar effect it's rally around the flag and i think it actually helps the regime because a lot of the people in iran especially the young people really don't like them in the regime and any time you either take economic use economic warfare or actual warfare you're going to get a rally around the flag effect site and sanctions and they're good for small persuading nations to do small things but overthrowing governments or getting them to stop nuclear weapons when they live in a dangerous neighborhood it's just not going to work i mean if you can put himself yourself in their shoes they see israel they see turkey they see the arab countries that don't really like them and they israel has nuclear weapons and other countries are working secret to the police to get nuclear weapons presumably so iran. feels threatened and when they feel threatened all the sanctions in the world are not really going to help and in fact i think it will probably push the the population
