which brightened if you knew that song from things to. come. from protests now instead a second to each one of the military the last ditch attempt to meet protesters demanding more from cairo interesting few moments. two sides of the crisis as americans lined up at the stores for the annual black friday bargain on fuse also record levels elsewhere in the shelters and food stations. last tale of riches to rags america once stood for when looking for nothing ukraine but ended up homeless .
2:01 am
you're watching r t welcome to the program egypt's new appointed prime minister has appealed to the nation to give them a chance to form a habit that will be accepted by everyone come out on zurich said that the new government would be after sunday's parliamentary election that's crowns on cairo's tahrir square continue to keep up the pressure on the ruling generals are demanding an immediate switch to civilian rule all teams want to slip reports. certainly the situation at the moment here in turkey a square is calm as i move to the side and we move our camera in you can see that it's still early here people are only beginning to wake up now but we're not witnessing anywhere near the same kind of numbers that we saw out here in tahrir square last night the situation here certainly is a lot more common than it has been for some time although we are receiving reports now of fresh clashes that have broken out in alexandria a short time ago to also some ambulances here in the square but the mood and the
2:02 am
seems i get from talking to protesters is that this momentum is going to be difficult to keep up indeed some of the protests redesigns been talking to said that they think coming next week the movement here begin to fizzle out and that is despite the fact the protesters say they will remain in tahrir square and still be on the streets down the next flashpoint could be monday's parliamentary elections and while the majority of people here interfere say they will not be voting we need to remember that there are still people outside of cairo who say they will be voting at this stage again it's very difficult to gauge what kind of support the military has evolved people i've been talking to who say it needs to be given a chance especially with the kind of reforms it has announced the army say that it will elect a president by mixture of june now the voting is going to be over two days and this is to enable as many people as possible to come forward and cost the ballots at the same time it is expected that the muslim brotherhood will win the the majority of
2:03 am
the vote and this is despite the fact that the muslim brotherhood has lost popularity of the past few days we need to remember that the brotherhood was one of the main organizations that instigated the protests back in january but it has largely kept away from these demonstrations a question that the security will have to answer in the coming weeks since allegations upper twenty's tear gas they used we understand from human rights groups and from just as insults and have experienced the worst of it that it is a toxic. substance suspicious the bandage international circles it's having this there was so much gas and there was a different type of gas that was creating what they called a chemical pneumonia that was very very difficult to treat and in fact people have died from it and the police are telling the families of very poor families whose kids have been killed you can pick up the bodies but we're not going to give you a certificate of death to try to to hide what really is going on the death toll at
2:04 am
the moment stands at forty one although we are hearing from some doctors that they've been under pressure from those figures that the numbers are much higher but they haven't come forward and actually admit that this again causes many here to ask the question whether or not the revolution back in january achieved anything and not only the revolution the so-called revolution here in egypt but in fact where the revolutions that have happened elsewhere in the arab world have in fact in the long term the full the promises that they gave to the people. almost a year after mubarak's fall. where is again stained with blood there's no it's about the dignity of the egyptian people you don't want any more humiliation. here's another revolution seen libya the ousted leader moammar gadhafi was killed last month the people of libya are now left with a country in rulings and in government they did not truths i think there is
2:05 am
a reign of terror going on against those who disagree with the libyan government it's not presented that way in the western media but it is a reign of terror if you speak up right now against the new authorities in libya you're likely to go to jail or be executed or disappear in the meantime interim government brought to power by nato is strengthening its grip on the country nato and some arab states now openly call for regime change in syria the louder the call the more vile. the opposition becomes. western countries and the capitals of some countries in the region are openly recommending opposition to not hold talks with the assad regime looks like political probation on an international scale civil war is brewing in syria the whole region seems to be plunging deeper into a crisis. people suffer in the continuing wave of violence in the middle east and north africa some analysts say certain powers might be interested in keeping the
2:06 am
trouble boiling there are certain powerful interests outside of the middle east who wants to bring chaos as a rule in scenario discontent and chaos in order that long term will be militarized directly by nato and the oil resources of these oil rich countries by a large can be directly put under private hands it looks like this so-called transition to democracy in the wake of the arab spring is not going to well more blood is being shared we're looking at an arab winter and maybe a new where spring round the corner as tensions wives and as certain global powers are pushing for regime change in more countries of the region the wave of revolutions turning to a notion of the arts i'm going to check our reporting from washington r.t. . but the arab league ultimatum to syria to get him on observers or face sanctions has come and gone and gone the rebels and government troops continuing to fight their way and legal now discuss new measures including
2:07 am
a suspension of flights to syria as well as crippling restrictions on its central bank intention is to force rebel leaders on the government of president bashar assad table but neither side is showing any willingness to make concessions against syria as a useful protests now turning up an urgency and there's the syrian inferno rages some say that pressure from outside the country is a situation that's. the arab league called an emergency. meeting caro to discuss syria meanwhile real reformers genuine egypt from systems are getting their heads cracked open by the military police in egypt which is u.s. backed so the arab spring is a joke for the people of egypt and if you want any indication as to what syria might look like after the west is done with their proxy wars using their proxy rebels and maybe a bombing campaign look at libya they're flying the al qaeda flag over the government building thing going causing so if the if if the western powers think
2:08 am
that they're going to get away with a no fly zone in syria this is a very different prospect than libya the strategy now is to weaken syria internally by using mercenary forces al qaeda forces which were used in libya and also in afghanistan to bring them into base in turkey come over the border for incursions these humanitarian zones that the french are talking about are not humanitarian corridors these are paramilitary corduroys they will be used to move arms much like the egyptian military government facilitated the movement of arms over the egyptian border into libya which was a direct contravention of the u.n. resolution one thousand nine hundred seventy three so the u.n. is losing all credibility here as well. they were still ahead on the program revealing the mysteries of the red planet. hopes of finding traces of life on mars are being revived his next mission using cutting edge of russian and class.

2:17 am
creation all of this wrestling about whether or not the rich got to pay their fair share is ridiculous the rich pay their fair share government figures show that los angeles is still the worst place in america when it comes to food insecurity and these long lines for a free turkey giveaway may be an indicator of that but throughout the nation it remains a large problem with forty nine million americans struggling to feed themselves on a daily basis sixteen million of those are children it's amazing actually to so many people in the same fifteen hours later in freezing temperatures in a roller coaster of emotions jones can smile again no one shall feed her family this holiday season it just brings up the rest of the rest of the month and. this is a godsend a los angeles valley no archie so the global financial

2:19 am
i'm a real budget or so has my income went down i just changed my budget so for me it hasn't been a huge problem is it just that the world is bad at budgeting i believe the world or america is very bad budgeting you're not personally affected though. what that. flows really you can buy anything for something. some people are not affected but i'm sure certain people are affected and still in countries like we're from singapore i've got friends it's hard to find jobs and stuff like that for us really for the city so you know aspected is the ones that. are you scared that it's going to start affecting thing up or more. but until then you're shopping that's. going to keep their you know their finances under control
2:20 am
this year i know i am so do you feel like that's a good or bad thing. sometimes it could be a circus which has been in the past i think it may be it may work for the best people. you could give a little less and still have the same meaning to christmas i think. it's almost like that's what got the economy into a bad place people spending money they'd inherit right. to buy whether we have the money or not whether or not your holidays will be affected by the economy this year the bottom line is the holidays aren't supposed to be about money so maybe cutting back this year will be a good thing. for some more news now from around the world this hour german police have used water

rover it's called curiosity and it's due on mars next year the science lab or a tree on board should answer many questions first and foremost if there's ever been life on the red planet. one of the greatest mysteries of mars is that its surface is streaked with what looks like from rivers and streams almost everyone agrees that the mass was similar with rivers lakes and rains there was a theory that border evaporated together with the martian atmosphere we seem to have discovered it may have sunk inside the planet in the form of frost. for this mission the russian scientists have created a unique device it will point the rover to places where water might have accumulated whether it's in ice or in cased in underground minerals as imagined in the blockbuster saif i totally recall. and here it is this
