do not represent the revolution obviously he is a worse candidate simply because he represents the mubarak regime that the destroyed egypt for decades but the muslim brotherhood are also losing huge amounts of popularity with every day because of their political decisions what is next yes many people will return to the streets and lots of alternatives will be formed especially in this upcoming period in response to the horrible situation that we are in which is to choose between a member of the mubarak regime and a member of the muslim brotherhood. egypt's neighbor israel is more aware of the developments across the border the relations between the two countries have been sinking since the toppling of the barrett last year i was wondering rhetoric has been stepped up to as artist paul asli reports set a corner with these words the muslim brotherhood candidate mohamed morsi campaign was launched with a vow that the capital of the arab world will be jerusalem which morsi won two

liberated six weeks on the contest is as tight as ever with morsi a strong contender to be egypt's next president and his promise is as governessing as ever egypt is committed to international agreements that were signed including the treaty with israel or egypt and should have the right to amend all that is not in their interest to go and make sure the other party commits to what it is signed as if it's not warming enough for israel what will happen to the one nine hundred seventy nine peace treaty with egypt big players who've put their weight behind morsi as presidential bid has been even more bold in the claims are but a war with israel is in no way something that can be ruled out the clock was always ticking the egyptian street no stranger to empty israel sentiment and despite the worries about stability the revolution in the elections simmering below the surface is hostility towards israel but that hostility was kept in check during the bikes time the top floor of this building used to house is even cyber but it is now

closed up to make it a sign is rabies fear of what's to come. for egyptians this religious problem and i mean number one the next president will be strong and change the status quo and if used to continue the relationship had with israel in the last continue to fight. he's a realist the first for us next president should go all the relations between us it's a three eighty israelis can no longer ignore thing that. anybody should close ones and ignore such rhetoric that's not only. very negative but it is alarming but a muslim brotherhood victory is not a done deal on thursday egypt's constitutional court dissolved the islamize dominated parliament and gave morsi is contained. in the green light to stay in the race but it's done little to calm israeli fears of an islamist government on its border boyish and so be reduced to zero. but the real problem is

to what extent will the brotherhood purse its goal of trying to destroy israel and kill all of us. i would actually say that the main security danger to israel today and for the next two years is not iran but the situation in egypt a concern the islamist at least in public and at least for now are trying to downplay i think it will do to make some trouble here but. no but maybe israelis are worried because in the ruthless business of politicking easy points are scored by using the jewish state as a punchbag and what israelis fear is that what see today is only a step away from being implemented tomorrow. r.t. . there are two will continue to bring you the latest from egypt across the way care we got analysis and updates of the first post about presidential runoff from our correspondents there. championing hardline islamist.

job cuts means cuts to salaries it also means cuts to spending from the government all part of this bailout provided by the e.u. i.m.f. and the euro zone now that has proven increasingly unpopular but it is still being defended by new democracy there on the other side the fence has to reason out beforehand before the previous elections in may these are seen as an outside left radical group now although they're really garnering much more middle ground when it comes that sentiment of opposing this yes there are measures being put in place of opposing what's come before them they say there's been too costly for the greek people in their eyes and in many voters' eyes austerity simply isn't working to dealing with a mixed bag but one fact remains that present people in greece are still suffering prosperity and a crippled economy rocketing unemployment and a crumbling economy of the more one. no symptoms of greece's austerity plan but

polls the most they come in you know it's very important for greece to stay in the euro zone and you knew you were lost without. though a party's exist on the ballot paper for most this is a choice of two competing thoughts the pro bailout vote has been embodied by new democracy party which is overseeing the country's recent spending and job cuts they view us there t. as a bit necessary pill to swallow but not everyone agrees. the cost of washed leaving the eurozone is estimated to be three trillion euros and this isn't the cost the eurozone can bear. merging only during may's undecided first election it's a reason has continued to hold ground with its radical rejection of e.u. i.m.f. and euro zone impose austerity rightly so for i guess the whole. experiment the measures. it's going to. the feel of the.

perspectives. of this have been far from languishing on the sidelines of far right group golden courting controversy for racial and an anti immigration stance they've continued to hold on to a marginal but symbolic percentage of support for their views remain drowned out by the anxiety and challenges that face this weary nation whoever clinches victory greece assy. the euro zone's third largest economy now italy is also seeing more tension too with public theory a deepening austerity cuts where an elected leader is a mass demonstrations indeed in full swing right now in rome with tens of thousands on the streets there activists are demanding an overhaul of government policies on employment economic growth welfare and taxation the rallies organized by three of the country's leading trade unions italy's unemployment rates gradually growing and

condemn president assad's regime and continues to call me time for both sides to stop fighting and sit down for talks there are two spoke to agnes poirier from a christian ministry in syria who says the militants are playing games with you and observe. the word of deferred is in the word to wear a follow on to the scene there to tell you what the native world would the end the people they have seen and carrying out of around the national hospital in tel dough could upset arms of blankets of ministry of health care even then to assemble them in a mosque and the second day we have seen it do you observe it is coming to this very modest to be able to see these laws because it's not what is said to. me. those people are international it was only then carried them.

and to give them to the opposition doesn't exist why i'm here for all under possibility to show them we say they're all in their story or you end up sort of elysia man we don't know whom day out of the island of position and there's many strengths each one of those factions add working independently it's why it's very difficult to then you would say add a side to this the u.s. though claiming moscow a center ship with troops on board to protect its military base of the syrian port of tartus russia has denied the claims but said several ships are ready to head to the base if the situation worsens you see cuffing offers more. just days after the u.s. state department was forced to back away from secretary of state hillary clinton's controversial remarks pledging that attack helicopters were on their way to syria from russia new comments from the u.s. military officials reported an american news outlets saying. that moscow has sent

a small contingent of armed forces in order to protect its deep water port and military base in the syrian city of tartus now according to sources here in moscow russian forces are ready and are on standby if needed in order to protect russian assets and personnel there but have not been deployed as of yet the base in tartus was established during the cold war era in order to protect the soviet fleet in the mediterranean sea the last time that russian swore ships were in the area was as recently as january when they were there in order to refuel and perform routine maintenance within the port it is important to remember that as the crisis in syria unfolds so it does it seems to be the escalating tensions between the u.s. and the government of president bashar al assad there are all kinds of foreign fighters rebel groups involved in the conflict in syria and of course it is the

ordinary citizens that are paying the price. and to find out more about the story we're covering today here on t.v. or online by heading to a website called here's a taste of israel's years long blockade of gaza becomes a new report revealed water in the area is severely contaminated also a huge fire in ghostly top of building in the east of moscow dramatic footage of the. cold. china is gearing up to launch its first female astronaut into space later in the day along with two male colleagues they'll have to hook up with beijing's lab module that's been in orbit since last september the astros will conduct scientific tests of the expected for home again in about ten days todd hopes to establish a station in orbit by the end of the decade well explanatory editor of space dot com he says china is going full steam ahead with its operation. this is their big test to show that they can do it with people on board. they can do it with

a mixed crew. veterans and new space flyers for them it's a major milestone this one may last up to two weeks you can see a longer mission just to really push the edges of the audible to show what the spacecraft can do what the astronauts can do and how long they can stay up there based on the technology that china has has built today plans in another manned flight to the space module possibly later this year or in early next year and what china has done in just the last decade has taken a stepping stone approach to human spaceflight so they went with unmanned launches first and in two thousand and three the first manned launch. what we saw last last year was the first unmanned docking at this space module the chinese the third country after russia and the united states to develop human spaceflight and it really looked at the success of russia's program the experience that nasa had to to shape its own independent program they've also just learned from the errors and the

successes of those two programs so well you see where you see a long decades long legacy of russia and the united states china is really relatively new but they're trying to focus on what they can do. successfully and that will be really unique and tailored to what china hopes to accomplish in space . fifty people being killed by a car bomb attack in a marketplace in the west pakistan thirty five others were also injured in the blast which happened in the town of the border the bomb appeared to be aimed at members of a pro-government tribe who oppose a local. tribal northwest is frequently targeted by. at least ten people been killed by a car bomb attack in baghdad that blast shook an area with thousands of shia muslims were gathered to major religious festival it comes just three days after seventeen shia pilgrims were attacked in a wave of attacks across the country a sunni militant group known as the islamic state of

order for him to agree though he had to present his sport. come tell you all these pictures we did get there and everything's fine. america's first amendment guarantees freedom of the press but many journalists covering some of the country's major events are being hounded rather than protected at increasing number are reportedly being arrested just for doing their jobs. reports. no. dramatic scenes unfolding in the u.s. a must cover vent for journalists that the idea i showed them and apparently that wasn't enough for the new york police his press pass feeling to pass the test this reporter got arrested while covering the occupy wall street protests no muss no fuss officer just. went off on me. and i just. tried to tell him that i'm a journalist. people out my state department create tension. whether i have your

police or unfortunately that's one expired keil rights for daily russian newspaper and has worked in the us for the last three years oh don't prove you have they don't really care that it's just you just business and you credentials don't really prefer to sit through a whirlpool like legal system the seasoned journalist was treated as a protest participant under arrest twenty four hours behind bars a quickie trial six hundred dollars in fines were his punishment for doing his job covering the news of the day and then there were the two days of community service the universe and bring right over here this inefficient station give you brooms trash cans and child and you're basically walking around sweeping the streets picking up the debris paper cigarette butts whatever keep you is now on probation for six months it is an outrage and i treat that professes to have a undying perspective for the free press to be it out there like it's throwing

reporters in jail i think everybody knows but this case is not unique rather it's part of a dangerous trend in the u.s. when you let the state control who is a journalist that's just propaganda team pool is an independent journalist who has witnessed police would ject press passes on a state by state basis throughout occupy wall street protests in new york they don't care even if you have a press pass i've watched. i watched a cop grab a journalist with his press pass on the ground i've seen supervisors call out to grab a journalist press pass and take it from him at d.c. the processes in oakland they require a local oakland press ups in new york they've been rejecting trespassers from other jurisdictions have a first amendment which guarantees the freedom of the press i mean there is no nothing in the law which must at least agencies to determine which press the

legitimate press and which are not requiring a press pass it's also been sending journalists through a vicious circle not just people work with guessing games of which state might be next to cover a story near impossibility in the fast paced world you have to prove that you've covered breaking news but it's hard to cover breaking news in the police won't let you so creates this catch twenty two take several months finally if they like the news you're making they'll let you get a pass. arbitrary or unattainable press passes demanded journalists arrested for covering the news the constitutional concept of media freedom under siege i think we're slowly coming into a state of affairs where. shouldn't a video camera is a lot more dangerous to the establishment and shooting a gun choosing to view his arrest as an invaluable cultural experience he treats it with humor i got two articles out of my experience so it's pretty good outcome for me freedom of the press in america

a first hand account is that it sure can our party new york. open for more than ten years the guantanamo bay detention camp has to be in limbo these days the deadline set by president obama to close it came and went two years ago but no day today neither is left in a year next in our very own new york residents who's out about seeking opinion on the streets about that. even though president obama promised to close the prison at guantanamo bay or get him out it remains open why this week let's talk about that and i think the logistics of closing it of prevented president obama from making it happen do you think it was a mistake for him to make such a promise no i don't i think. i think he's i think is still committed to the policy he's trying to roll the rock and it's a tough i say that i'm ready to be fed up but both the u.s.

imperialism you should deal your own issues first and then you when did we ve issue of the world after a is one time obey just an example of our imperialism of course it is an example you know because you want to impose democracy even though some country said you're not even able to impose democracy in your own country i think it's an issue i think it's hard for us to you know portray as being the sort of promoter of human rights while also keeping people in prison for as long as they have without any trials or any any chance that us just as applied to them so yes i think it's an issue do you think it's fair for us to hold them indefinitely absolutely not so what does that say about the u.s. . says we're in a difficult position right now that make it ok to hold people without knowing if they're guilty of anything probably not it says that you guys want to control the world actually. and he shouldn't. and that's i don't know gotten away shouldn't exist actually some of them are very guilty and how do you know that.

they released some of them and apparently they turned committed more outrageous so is the issue then what to do with these people if the prison is closed. yes where we just are not none of the states wants to take them so we send them to yemen saudi arabia and they all escape and join the forces account so i don't think the. president of the united states really has the power to close guantanamo i mean what would you have to do with the people who are there yeah i have no idea which is why i'm not in politics but that is the question right a lot easier to say i'm going to close it then actually go through with it whatever you think is the reason they get my remains open the bottom line is it probably won't be closed for a very long time. in

a couple of minutes to look into the old american tradition of bounty hunting but first here on out with a recap of today's headlines after this for a short. if you're followed up on my debt snowball than they.
