12:06 pm
in the u.s. seem to think a camera is more dangerous than a gun at least that's the impression some generals say they getting when faced with a brutal police action a protest read. that's a tough decision for egyptians as they voted for the country's next president in the election runoff they choices between muslim brotherhood candidate mohamed morsi and the ahmed shafik to hosni mubarak's last prime minister the ballot comes after the country's supreme council dissolved parliament and the same fate could now face an assembly appointed earlier to draft a new constitution thousands of people chose to boycott the votes they need a candidate represents the egypt the way the fighting fall in last year's resolution the ruling military council promised to transfer a polyp to the new president by july the first but independent journalist thomas amounting think that that's highly unlikely but it may sound harsh but to me this election is not about what the egyptian people want it's about what the usa once
12:07 pm
egypt is run by a military council who was put in power by basically what the u.s. approval last year with overthrew who work the united states has invested something like one hundred billion dollars in today's dollars. keeping the egyptian military funded the election looks pretty rigged i mean the rules have been changed since the last election you know the reality is political power grows out of the barrel of a gun an addiction no perry has the gun and they're being funded to know a billion dollars every year by the u.s. you know whatever happens in the selection even if the muslim brotherhood does win the election the military still is going to help our. egypt's election is also being followed closely by the country's a neighbor israel that he is antigens sentiment on the rise as is mubarak's ousting will spike if any slam is kind of a comes to column policy or has the story set a corner with these words the muslim brotherhood candidate mohamed morsi is campaigning has launched with
12:08 pm
a vowel that the capital of the arab world will be in jerusalem with morsi drawn to liberate it 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 departments stop what it is signed as if it's not warming enough for israel what will happen to the nine hundred seventy nine peace treaty with egypt big players who've put their weight behind most his presidential bid has been even more bold in the claims how but the war with israel is in no way something that can be ruled out the clock was always ticking the egyptian street no stranger to anti israel sentiment and despite the worries about stability in the revolution the elections simmering below the surface is hostility towards israel but that hostility was kept in check during the bikes
12:09 pm
time the top floor of this building used to house days we need to see fiber but it's now closed up and became a sign is rabies fear of what's to come. for egyptians it is really sputnik and i mean number one the next president will be strong and change the status quo i refuse to continue the relationship had with israel in the last continued to fight . he's a realist the first you know for us next president should cut all the relations between us it's a threat it is raids 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 islam has dominated parliament and gave morsi is contender a majestic 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 severe reduced to zero.
12:10 pm
but the real problem is to what extent will the brotherhood pursue its goal of trying to destroy israel and kill all of us i don't sell i way 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 consume the islamists at least in public and at least for now are trying to downplay i think israel tried to dominica some trouble here but not trouble. you know but maybe israelis are worried because in the ruthless business of punishing easy points are scored by using the jewish state as a punch bag and watch israelis fear is that what see today is only a step away from being implemented to move to the c.r.t. keimer. r.t. is closely following developments in egypt as stay with us for the latest updates

12:14 pm
waves of austerity we've already seen which have been growing increasingly popular that means job cuts means cuts to salaries and 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 still being defended by new democracy now on the other side the fancy house arrays are now beforehand before the previous elections in may these are seen as quite the outside left radical group now although they're really garri much more middle ground when it comes that sentiment of opposing this yes there are two 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 greek voters eyes austerity simply isn't working to dealing with a mixed bag but one fact remains at present that people in greece are still suffering prosperity and a crippled economy rocketing unemployment and
12:15 pm
a crumbling economy are the more widely known symptoms of greece's austerity plan but there are some who have lost something far more time to give up caring for their children simply because they can no longer afford to do so because if i didn't i care for six children we've been through some struggles i'm not only concerned about the future of my kids i'm concerned about everyone myself included in the law if he is part of a charitable program named s s children this is one of its branches a village of foster homes but now it's finding itself overwhelmed his family seek their help and desperate times power a major. source of. income. he's from the private sector not from the greek state. and we had the significance of the use of money just what kind of greece these children grow up in
12:16 pm
may about to be decided as people pack to head to the polls the most the coming year it's very important for greece to stay in the euro zone in the you were lost without us. though eight parties 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 a party which is overseeing the country's recent spending and job cuts they view us their tea as a bitter yet necessary pill to swallow but not greece. or the cost of march 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 this radical rejection of a u. i.m.f. and euro zone impose austerity. so for i guess the whole.
