2:02 pm
something they want to they've been fighting for more open democratic society not just one of these of course is expected to fact tourists which is a very important part of it gyptian economy because tourists don't want to go to the country where they are forced to cover their faces and hands of course since moved in brotherhood is supporting the supreme council of armed forces the power from mubarak last february the misery that has been there. in egyptian politics since the fall of monarchy in the nineteen fifties means that the military will stay longer in power and this is of course something also again something people here in egypt are not happy with because they say they want to do the revolution in two thousand and eleven to get rid of the tater she and they don't want another one which is a military dictatorship this is how they take the things in egypt right now so again we can expect protests and tensions between military and people on the
2:03 pm
streets to escalate. the jerusalem post is written extensively on the muslim brotherhood says islam is coming to power in egypt is the kind of democracy in visage during last year's revolution. people have called for democracy in egypt this is the result when people call for democracy they may not always this realize that the electorate has a very different vision of how they would like their society is run then in other places such as western europe we have islamist hardline parties coming to power and it's going to be an earthquake for both egypt and for the region the muslim brotherhood has been preparing for this moment for decades they have a very thought out detailed agenda for how they wish egypt to look like and it's a very different egypt from what we've known until now going to be a much more religious conservative place and much more hostile to the west the arab

2:05 pm
certainly seeing the way that they operated a clearance a question really just how independently they were able to operate in the country. didn't really seem to be taking a rethink. from every single person he wanted to see in another question. more of these monitors what needed to be interesting leaving food is the end of this mission. because they can very divisive the response to what the people want that to happen some people think this really is essential to this mission continue and in fact just possibly speaking to one of the former advisors to. the previous government here in syria he can listen to his opinion on the situation.
2:06 pm
and. that you have to work with. the. the other side eases though to. let me spin it as elation at the conflict here in the country will start to talk as a peaceful protest if it become increasingly the fact that if you have nandan. the government no longer have control over how can you cut all these different factions no one really knows anymore he was the voice of the people but i think the number of hugo weaving speaking i think that really is an area of major concern. sarkies sorrow furth reporting she's currently visiting different parts of the country sending updates on the latest developments firebird you can find that all of. the most recent post is from the town of zabadani in south west of the country the

joining us here on r t so why discourage should still want to join the bloc do you think it's a or do they think it's a ticket to their prosperity. it certainly was their idea when they started the accession program in two thousand and three i mean almost other times but you do not change a process like that overnight and also you should not forget they're going on the crisis bad as it is and even the terrible for some people it does not last forever so a country things also of long a future so the question now at this particular moment is it good for courageously joining not at this exact moment when the e.u. community itself in a deep crisis well there is a big question if he is of course he did now would say no we would rather wait in my den waiting forever and that's a risk led probably i mean at least the political class aggression doesn't take
2:09 pm
because what strikes me is that all political parties that are present in the parliament powerful access and all the manifestations that we see are done by people by musicians who are not represented in the parliament yet they represent some forty percent apparently because opinion polls all the people now that's a worrisome thing for croatian political class indeed and those opposing membership are worried that being part of the union will mean a loss of sovereignty how much of a voice do you think rachel will have if it joins the e.u. . well crazy is of course a small country i mean they probably want to get a better economic integration it's looking at their northern neighbor and. to begin with it. doesn't even negate the the extra accession of the national council it will not have a major impact nor for for better or for worse whether it will know the major
2:10 pm

the u.s. congress has yielded some massive online pressure temporarily shouldering to controversial anti-piracy bills his followers some of the largest ever hacker attacks on america's top government and entertainment industry websites and a mass internet blackout and protests supporters of the laws claim it will help protect copyright online but internet giants google and wikipedia say it will halt the free flow of information lawmakers stressed that although wants to leave the initiative could be revived trevor tim from the electronic frontier foundation says the laws were not just aimed at fighting piracy. unfortunately the provisions were written so probably that they would probably end up censoring millions of innocent users would never even thought about copyright infringement and the worst part was it wasn't going to stop online piracy. you know the pills didn't go directly after the owners of the site they kind of went around everything around it so it was
2:17 pm

2:18 pm
are how great people are to believe made up stories where you throw away the much hype right the president better ferreting out on the streets of new york. state the elements of the next winter olympics host city we need people on a daily patrol hunting out how to land shoes and ensuring safety for skiers. but first russia's announced plans to build manned research colonies on the moon the nation's space agency's view in partnership with bass and counterparts in the e.u. to put men back on the lunar surface permanently or keep your offer explains how scientists hope exploring the moon will help us better understand life. because most want to send first of two unmanned probes to the surface of our nearest celeste steele neighbor and take samples bring them back to earth so they can be studied and analyzed with the hope eventually that we can settle a permanent base on the move now this all sounds very science fiction put it could
2:19 pm
very soon be science plaques a moon base has been said that it could very well be a very good place to to launch spacecraft from would also be a very good place to build spacecraft of course the the gravity of the moon much less than there is on earth we get see the effects that lessen the gravity or zero gravity would have on a spacecraft much more than we could ever simulate on earth hopefully lots of very exciting things that we can see coming up in the next few years there i say they're hoping to these unmanned probes can be the first step towards perhaps setting up a permanent home on the moon. well and all that happens moon bases are science fiction for now though some people seem ready to believe anything especially if you toss into the mix a lot can sort of threat or his glory harshness trotted out on the streets of new york. well. in the case of iran's nuclear capabilities people are quick to make judgments based
2:20 pm
on what they hear in the media but are they actually listening to what's being said this week let's talk about that do you agree with president obama's initiative to monitor iran's nuclear program from the moon. yes why i think it's important to know what's going on i do yeah why well just because of the threat to the world what it is is the threat specifically. our safety has that. we cannot. do you agree with his program. i think you put me on you don't believe that from the moon. maybe from a satellite but i think you're putting me on would you be surprised to know that a lot of people just say plainly that they agree with the program from the moon and it wouldn't surprise me at all that people not humans are learning speak well for things they like to jump off cliffs doesn't the media have
2:21 pm
a responsibility to guide the lemmings down a better path you know lemming should have their mind of their own and they should be educated i mean people are watching t.v. radio internet so it's if you know even if you're looking for some kind of disease you know you find so many interpretations so which one is the right one this is again people say i saw it on the internet so i believe it's absolutely true so it's . very hard to find the right source most people just don't have the time don't have the inclination calm people that they get into if you ever try to have a meaningful discussion with someone about politics i try every day it's pretty pretty bad to be honest so you never going to know where they were even if they did you would know. we don't know if he has a year's overstress or not so. yeah but do you think common sense think that over a little bit oh ok we don't know because that deep space but our moon you'd think
2:22 pm
we would know. tonight we're going to look up the sea because for you to come so it seems like some people aren't listening to what's being said and i thinking for themselves let's just helping catch the much more subtle inaccuracy parted with by the media every day. so to look now at some other stories making headlines across the globe stepping in nigeria where the death toll after a series of coordinated done in bomb attacks has climbed to more than one hundred fifty people radical islam a second has claimed responsibility for targeting different locations including police stations and a regional police headquarters the group which is behind a string of bombings in the region recently planes the attacks are a response to authorities refusal to release their members from prison. nearly two dozen occupy protesters have been arrested in san francisco after demonstrations turned violent several were arrested after refusing to break their human chain
