link this to something that happened couple weeks ago when the military council ordered security forces to go and shut down democracy agencies both n.g.o.s and international n.g.o.s n.g.o.s all of that indicates that the mix of councils very has been entrancing to democracy that they want to cut the deal with a force which most likely would be the muslim brotherhood they did something very odd about the fact that egypt brought down their hand and leader and yet agencies are acting. in iraq what is happening right now in large segments of society that typically the youth of egypt will began to revolt and that will hold was taken away by other political parties including the muslim brotherhood and that some of those youth are angry at the government because they want the military council to transfer power to them or actually to their representatives and they fear that egypt is moving towards another author with heaven regime and sticking with the

story lawrence davidson a professor of middle eastern history at west chester university in the u.s. says this latest outbreak of violence could spark further insurrection. i think they lock the gates of the stadium which is never a good idea. but it seems to have been a routine kind of procedure. that the police didn't intervene against crafters probably is an indication that the police were afraid. to get in the middle of this but it serves as a pretty good excuse to read in bigger and. the protests against the military council and i think the key here is what the muslim brothers are going to do i don't think it can be another call to a full scale uprising unless the muslim brothers and their numbers as far as the
9:04 pm
military council is concerned. you don't know what their regular troops are going to do if you put them in the streets against against those centrally their cousins or the you know are members of their family so i don't see the army. coming in and being becoming involved in this. maybe it will fractionalized elements of the army perhaps to exert leadership beings get bad enough but i don't see that coming anytime soon well as always we would like for you to tell us what you think about the latest clashes in egypt at r.t. dot com today we ask you why call has failed to return after egypt's revolution last year. so far most of you believe it's because of the same officials who were in power under ousted president mubarak are still running the country now a quarter think of the country doing the unrest plays into the interests of radical
9:05 pm
groups about eighteen percent say the unrest continues because high unemployment persists and a slightly fewer of you believe that every revolution creates its own downfall those are the figures now but of course you can help change them. that's your vote at r.t.e. dot com. the u.n. security council is set to vote on a resolution on syria amid reports of escalating violence in the country earlier russia refused to accept a draft resolution on syria saying that it calls to facilitate a political transition moscow opposes any language inside the resolution that could be seen as backing a regime change in damascus or to use the latest from new york number you've been staying on top of this for us is the tide turning for the u.n. resolution on syria. well the tide into your is churning in the respect that there will be a vote taking place saturday in new york at the security council whether or not this resolution gets adopted or means to be seen i don't mean to be using
9:06 pm
a cliche but this story has been going up and down the past week and what we see is that there has been a vision's me to the draft resolution that was initially presented on to state but by friday morning the russian foreign ministry issued a statement saying that it could not support the provisions of the draft resolution as it was because it's not just address all of moscow's concerns the text has been softened by moscow still has issues with some of the text and the two major sticking points for russia and many other countries in the security council i should mention is the fact that it calls for syrian president bashar al assad to relinquish his powers hand them over to his deputy and step aside while the transition government is formed now that he's rooting has changed in the draft resolution that i have personally seen but a lot of
9:07 pm
a lot of sentences leave room for interpretation and i think that is the issue that russia has with the text of this resolution it does not want to leave any doors open for regime change in syria because. basically russia china and many other countries have localized the fact that the security council should not be used as a tool to impose regime change in any country around the world in this case in particular to syria it should be the security council should be new moving towards coming to a peaceful solution where both parties see in part in the conflict should come together at the table so this vote will be taking place saturday morning we're going to the u.k. envoy to the united nations security council will be meeting at nine am clearly making their own statements talking about this draft resolution now according to reports a move towards the vote came after russian foreign minister sergei lavrov spoke by
9:08 pm
phone with u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton we're told by u.s. officials that it was ms clinton that called on mr la prague now that she will be meeting in the next coming of hours in the next coming hours for a security conference that's scheduled in the unit maybe they will speak on the sidelines personally about this draft resolution and whether or not it will be approved and fully supported by the security council as i said remains to be seen because russia has its main concerns in the aftermath of what took place in libya it does not want to see repeated circumstances in syria and at this point takes place but of course our viewers know we will be following this story and updating them as more information becomes available proof that it's always changing because it's a late on a friday night there in new york thanks for staying on top of that for us murder nial reporting from new york for r t and we are receiving reports from opposition groups in syria that around two hundred people have been killed in renewed violence
9:09 pm
in the city of homes according to the syrian observatory for human rights and the army is showing the city with reports of fresh clashes in other towns as well for more developments on the ground in damascus. make sure to visit our twitter page for the latest from sarah firth on the situation in syria. as humanitarian groups accuse libya's new government of abuse in the countries of detention centers it's been revealed that a former senior official could have fallen victim to torture libya's ambassador to france has died in custody twenty four hours after being detained by an armed group international aid agency medicine sans frontiers has recently halted its work in the libyan prisons because of the interrogation techniques so chandan middle east expert and journalist shed some light on the latest accusation. i think doctors without front is like human rights watch like amnesty they can't suddenly feign
9:10 pm
surprise about what's actually come to pass in libya they seem to provide the quote unquote human rights justification for western. policies of foreign aggression doctors without borders has said very clearly that we are being used by the libyan rebels to basically to make better those detainees that have been tortured so they can be tortured again so the torch a state which libya has now developed which which you know just would get off his regime. just was a much better human rights situation by any real standards now doctors a against finding surprise but frankly they are being used in this way and they're allowing themselves to be used and it's high time really that the people across the world see these so-called human rights organizations what they are the basically the trojan horse is a western foreign policy it seems to me very clearly is that why this focus now on this in tiny militia is because there's a tiny militia there's untimely people holding saif al islam and the west
9:11 pm
especially the i.c.c. are very fearful about what this one tiny militia are going to do with saif al islam saif islam hasn't had access to us and this far as i know and he hasn't said anything publicly so i think for this and tunnies that saif al islam in their in their custody is the biggest power play that they've got to use in libya so i think this is the great agenda of what's going on right now with this latest development . and that russia live pictures from every polling station that will go online with the help of a new website launched on friday thousands of web cameras are being installed across the country ahead of next month's presidential election the move was introduced by current prime minister and presidential candidate vladimir putin as one step towards stopping fraud during the vote and what piece going to has the details. after inch mile after mile big brother is preparing to cast his eyes on polling stations as the massive campaign to
9:12 pm
install web cameras is in full swing across the entire nation but actually sometimes but i don't know why i just by central electoral commission which is to install web cameras at all polling stations across the country so that everyone can watch online what's happening there twenty four hours a day. the idea was put forward following the biggest protests in russia since the collapse of the us a song with tens of thousands demanding fair elections so wiring up over ninety thousand polling stations is the steel in around a half a billion u.s. dollars is the price tag that you're going to want the system is not to be made only for one day we have this project want only develop elections acknowledges it will also help modernize the telecommunications infrastructure across the entire country so when they all cameras will be feeding the videos they filmed a local digital storage facility after computer processing will be then sent to
9:13 pm
seven large storage and distribution centers via a cable radio and satellite these centers will then broadcast the information to several web portals it's estimated that all together the cameras will film and broadcast four hundred ninety years of video information in good quality however there is still down to this technology will help make the vote more transparent. i'm sure the observers won't be able to check advance if these cameras work will not now machine reason a camera for everyone knows about cameras in supermarkets but these are still doesn't stop robberies from happening. it's planted that every ballot box will be monitored by two cameras one with the general view at another with a close up of the slot there are many ways to rig a vote and the cameras don't provide one hundred percent guarantee against them but using that should still make it much more difficult to stuff boxes.
9:14 pm
using them to monitor election such a scale is a first for any nation. and regardless of the success of the idea everyone will be able to monitor the vote online and not to mention no one is against having more real life observers on the spot in what was going on r.t. moscow. now on to surveillance of a different kind as american and u.k. law enforcement agencies have been left red faced by the hacker group anonymous the web activists managed to intercept a conference call between the f.b.i. and scotland yard that discussed anti hacking operations and gave details about anonymous members and planned arrests the bureau confirmed the security breach saying the information was intended for law enforcement officers only and was illegally obtained by brown from social activist site project pm says the hacking
