a ruling that's in waging the public. this revolution said let's put things in quotes that was. case of i got really mad about the right process and i'm not that it was this method which i thought was bad but i don't think the rest of the country and everywhere else was her freedom of expression and the fact that such convictions accosting a cow dave or artistic plans actions which the great in the good of the arab media industry a quick to condemn after being banned for years until mubarak hardline parties like the muslim brotherhood and the newly created new look i think have gained serious political clout having won the lion's share of seats in parliament. has. to be. just what

will that new egypt look like the greeks like i will it means in praising much street. who have no problem with. this system so we have our culture out of this our culture. and out of atlanta and. society as we live in egypt so. i think that the laws have to come from this culture and this. means. many of these pushing for implementing shari'a law in egypt and we have likely that it could still be a long way off but there are already signs that change is taking place a lot of people who are currently governmental candidates for president are being very cautious about the statements that they make with the growth of policy everyone is preaching moderate islamists but at same time there's an undercurrent like for instance we're going to change that you likely we're not going to make schools but we're going to preach religion better at schools no matter how subtle

the differences may be at the moment egypt's eric she crossed straight in making it . and the results of what happens right now could be filled with generations. kyra. here with r.t. and still ahead in the program a yellow card for ukraine several countries threatened to boycott twelve football championship. edged mistreatment of the country's jailed i mean. we report on how fracking the extraction of natural gas from the shale has caused outrage in britain with fears about its destructive impact on the environment. u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton is in beijing for a wide ranging strategic talks with china a visit coming at an extremely delicate time in relations between the two countries beijing wants an apology from washington after accusing it of meddling in its

internal affairs of the u.s. embassy harbored a chinese dissident activist china is also irritated over u.s. military buildup in the asia pacific region. recompensing says u.s. leaders realize washington is actually. stage. obviously trying to. they're not very happy at those developments and i think inside to some extent america's actions are much more provocative than they might be but from another perspective the chinese economy is growing in her normal space and the american economy is not so it's perfectly rational for the chinese leaders to in effect. except these print papers on america's side in just realize that another five or ten years the chinese position will be enormously stronger relative to market leaders today given their very strong economic position right now and the vast amount of dependence

america has in selling it step to the chinese from a rational point of americas obviously in a weak position for that reason but a lot of american leaders seem to not recognize that those realities are still thinking that america is in a position it was ten or fifteen or twenty years ago the enormously dominant world superpower and that just is not the case anymore. or fits on those bits who set up his own city to china to study session economic developments that says the world is yet to see a major standoff between washington beijing and it could test our interview with him which you can see in full in twenty five minutes. and building their military but it's still you know the u.s. has a military that equal all the other deleterious of the world put together and i've heard of we've heard a lot of talk about multiple other world but last century it was a soviet union and us this story to be very simple minded about it this century is

the us and china that bipolar that world is going to be dominated by the bipolar connection of china and the u.s. and people will make countries will make decisions and calibrate their their actions against what they perceive will be the response of the u.s. and or china. the u.s. says it won't limits the deployment of a nato missile defense shield in europe as part of junctions from russia the project is the cause of one of the deepest divisions currently between the two countries russia is now making a high tech case against the system in a special conference in moscow which more than fifty nations plan to attend what is in the snow it brings the tales missile defense has been a deadlock for quite some time now between the us russia and nato it's a long standing issue on what russian officials at this summit are hoping to do is to prove with

a computer model how deployment of missile defense systems in poland romania even as far as turkey plans which aren't even plans really anymore they're really in full force pose a major threat to russia's national security this is something moscow's been trying to prove to all parties for dialogue for some time now and to no avail washington continues to stress that this deployment today is no way meant sports erected against process that it's tearing against probe states like iran and north korea and this is something quite frankly that russia just isn't part of but they want to see it have been demanding a written legally binding guarantees that this set defense system is not directed towards russia especially so close to its border but now with that said no major breakthroughs are expected at this summit it's not like senior officials understand that and it's well known that if you want to win you can't really go soft on the french remember that hot mike in south korea with obama telling made ready to hang in there that was ready to compromise after the election so that's

a case in more than a few countries this year with elections be held up throughout the world really in the twenty twelve also the meeting is considered high level a lot of high level defense officials here but nato secretary general rasmussen did decline an invitation to join in although his spokesperson says that no way represents or reflects his openness and readiness for dialogue it's not going to be seen as a great sign in terms of need. russia relations especially out of a major summit coming up in chicago at the end of the month so what it seems we're going to be hearing from officials coming out of this are baby steps everyone says they're willing to go further on dialogue but how much they're willing to compromise is still very unclear. but america is at military web now spends the world with nearly eight hundred bases a quarter of a million personnel explo this a massive military presence in a special report there today. to a substantial degree and one farm or another socialism has spread the shadow of

human regimentation over most of the nations of the or and the shadow is an approaching. the early twenty first century military bases a network of military bases all around the former believe. that the united states is trying to get its astonishing most americans have no idea there are more than a quarter of a million or more than two hundred fifty thousand u.s. troops stationed on these bases all around. we don't have power bases in america we don't have any british base we don't have any korean base we don't have any french bases or you know we just all american bases in our bases afai. noises around one or two doesn't bother us at all because they're all bases but for other people it's almost like a cancer here for these people. since the end of world war two the spaces i've been

like greece and to come to their assistance european union as a whole requires misanthropy conditions to be imposed upon the populations of those countries so you have a completely different attitude by the more that have heard it in europe one is the world the bank of bankers who were essential in forging this crisis and they are being treated with a glove. and then you have the way the states like spain are being treated europe does not have the need to do from should be there in order to avert the kind of gets kade of insolvencies of states that we have been experiencing over the last couple of years. what they did today max keiser and stacy herbert take on those they blame for being behind global financial chaos timothy guy you can't legislate away stupidity or risk taking greed it was just an accident i think that the global

poison water supplies but fracking got the green light in the u.k. a government study says the controversial gas extraction technique is safe despite causing two tremors in the popular coastal resort of blackpool last year environmentalist's fear a smokescreen hiding the far more dangerous side effect of large scale deadly pollution fails to address the earth quakes and seismicity you know his issues are actually in the very small fraction of the other associated problems with fracking so the report doesn't really do justice to any other aspects so ultimately the department of energy climate change regulating this hydraulic fracturing or fracking extracts me thing gas from underground millions of gallons of water and. chemicals including hydrochloric acid pumped into a three kilometer deep well that high pressure when the rock cracks gas escapes but so too can deadly toxins and radiation previously locked in the ground this site is

just sixty kilometers south of london is one of many the government intends to drill and the people who live here have had no say permission is already been given for fracking to start here and that's the hole that will be pumped with water at one thousand meters it's much shallower than most of the fracking sites which means the risks of tremors a much higher but so too are the chances of toxic chemicals seeping into the water supply and that's the worry for residents who live nearby the fact that fracking could take place four miles from my home makes me feel very angry very disillusioned very disappointed in our legislators to things absolutely exasperated that they can even countenance sanctioning because it is an eco sidle technology it's short term it's short sighted halfway between the capital and the coast bulk i'm surrounded by a network of reservoirs that provide water to much of england's densely populated southeast the fear is the toxic cocktail left by fracking will pollute supplies

only a quarter of the carcinogenic chemicals pumped in actually come out again fracking has already begun america these online videos show what happens if the well casing splits taps flaming after gas leaked into the water system but britain insists it's a cleaner alternative to cold local campaigners far from convinced we really need to be looking at hell or we're going to move away from fossil fuels and what's happening at the moment is that the government is diverting its attention and its resources towards methods of energy such as nuclear and fracking that don't increase resilience and don't move as a way to reduce kloet impact fracking is banned in france and bowl garia because of public outrage but in the current corners of england's countryside people's fears are no match for the energy giants either bennett r.t. sussex. well remember there's always plenty more to check out on our website called

leadership reacted to all these statements coming from the european union but saying that this kind of rhetoric puts the countries back in the cold war and in fact there may be right in some sense because the one of the vivid examples of a political boy called during a sporting championship sporting event was in one thousand nine hundred eighty one sixty countries refused to come to moscow for the olympic games there and then the soviet union four years later replied by not sending fourteen countries fourteen republics of the soviet union to the olympic games in los angeles certainly the situation is very very tense for ukraine and for keven particular now. let's take a look now at some other news from around the world this hour. in libya new laws prohibiting public praise a great leader moammar gadhafi has been brought in national transitional council punishment could be as much as life in prison for offenses deemed as damaging to the state the censorship also prohibits indorsing the formally designed is a series of new rules have introduced by the river the should government ahead of
