yemen now we understand that these were warning shots and if we're to disperse the crowd into what i could see what happened yesterday which was essentially a breach of the all to. security barrier a wrong the embassy building yesterday tuesday the windows in the embassy that was smashed there were cars that were searched one final time the american flag was taken down this is in reaction to that american sponsored film which marks one of these scenes all these played out across the middle east the scene with the misfortunes mounted placing the son of an sponsor back on tuesday night with the killing of the american ambassador to libya since then in the gathering of the civil list maybe we are hearing from the libyan authorities as well as from washington that they believe that al qaida is the times this is the wind and this is the fourth consecutive day that violence has erupted on the streets of cairo behind me you see the square which is just a short distance from the american embassy here in cairo and all the roads in the

vicinity have been blocked and secured by security personnel as i try to reach this live position i have to make my way to be angry mobs that mostly youngsters on the street who are running these huge concrete barriers as well as the stones are picking up off the pavement and the security forces that are standing in front of the american embassy now at six o'clock this morning those forces enric took this area in front of the embassy not at this point it was happening over the barrier with the stones we were told one way and the police responding with tear gas in the other direction is i'm talking to you this could be staged tear gas in the area and as we've gone it's quite difficult if you are actually coming along one of those gas mosques now this is the worst spate of violence to take place egypt since the muslim brotherhood president mohamed morsi was elected only and today the muslim brotherhood did stand up support for mass protests in the provinces across egypt.

protests that would show anger and disgust at the snake in the movie but since that call was with the poor and the muslim brotherhood in that hospital it's more than symbolic protests to take place but when you look at the anger the frustration of the mobs in the streets of cairo it certainly seems that the muslim brotherhood is taking the state back at the moment because the findings in it support behind me the gunshots in the ambulances starting cause this minute of the six acquits the need for. the latest reports say the british and german embassies in saddam have now also been attacked along with the local american diplomatic mission for more on this we're joined by our london correspondent sara firth sara tell us more about the latest developments. the british the german and the u.s. embassies in done have all come under attack today now the british foreign office has confirmed so far just the demonstration has taken place. but we don't know certainly the german embassy came under quite

a heavy attack eyewitnesses at the scene reported windows being smashed flag outside the diplomatic mission being taken down and replaced with an islamic flag part of the building on fire we know that tear gas is being fired by the cedar nice place trying to resolve the situation there at the moment to reporters who are on the scene there reporting bus loads of the protests is moving towards the u.s. embassy so the sort of aiming now again at the u.s. embassy of course this is on the back of the wave of attacks that we've seen taking place across the middle east and north africa. the anti islamic film that was released and so he's concerns obviously that we're seeing this violence continuing and spreading now as we said not just the u.s. embassies that are coming under attack but the british and the german one as well the german foreign minister has responded to the attack he confirmed that all the stuff inside the building was safe they'd actually been evacuated because the

demonstration began he also condemned the film the anti islamic film trailer he condemned that but again reiterated the stance that many countries have taken certainly the u.s. has taken which is that there is absolutely no excuse for this type of violence here in the cape today we've got a demonstration starting at the moment outside the u.s. embassy in london that's being arranged by a british muslim cleric who is known as of being a fundamentalist islamist it remains to be seen how big that will be what sort of scale that will be old but obviously there are great concerns a call his way the protests continue all right following go to those developments on the ground. sarah for if you can follow sarah at sarah furthur scorer to thank you. all right coming up in the program epic efforts down the drain. we look at how president obama has been steadily building times with arab countries since he came to office only to see that its ruling in one fell swoop.

or all we can now discuss the course is spreading through muslim countries with our guests who can't tell mom london based journalist and peace activist. thank you for being with us today now so far there have only been raids on american diplomatic missions so why in sudan has the anger spilled over onto the british and german embassies. what i think you know when muslim people relate historically and in recent past and contemporarily to the west they don't necessarily distinguish between the colonizers and the new york colonized and so i think it really reflects the way that britain in europe has been relating particular britain and france has been relating to the arabs and muslims for centuries so it's no surprise that people in sudan are reacting as well but there is a bigger context here because i think the fundamental lesson to be learned from the

arab spring is that in the absence of a revolutionary mass organization for liberation against new york colonialism that actually the political forces on the ground will take advantage of that so what we're seeing is the people organizing most of the protests are actually the open allies of nato in the region so the people organizing the protests are physically the sort of the groups in saudi back to back that cetera so these groups did they say anything about blacks being lynched on mass in libya nor do they say anything particular about the nato bombardment libyan no they were actually the ground forces often nato in libya so also we have to kind of go back to the root of this which is iman's over here announcing on nine eleven a few days ago that you are here in libya a leading al qaeda member which was most likely released by the americans for background in two thousand and five was assassinated by a drone earlier this year it was for that reason that the protest took place in benghazi and the american ambassador was lynched so really we have the kind of see

connect the dots to the bigger political picture that we're seeing credit card the west has strongly condemned anti muslim propaganda really any time that it has emerged so why doesn't this seem to have our current of the outrage that is spreading fast and wide. i think i think muslim sentiment is very sensitive to any kind of dehumanization and humiliation by the west but again i point to the political forces that are leading the protest your report there's been reports that there's a protest in northern lebanon in tripoli who are the groups protesting in tripoli and creating some ruckus it's the same groups that are working for nato in overthrowing us and to have a proper liberation project amongst any oppressed groups of the global south is two fundamental things you need you need you need a revolutionary organization and revolutionary leadership and idiology off that none of these groups have that hizbollah has that us that has that iran has that gadhafi had that but these groups don't those serving the nato interests in the

region so i think with the two u.s. military carriers coming now on the coast of libya with the situation in syria i think we're going to see some devastating developments in relation to the nato attack on syria and i think this is also whipping up the sunni supremacists against against the war in syria hizbollah and iran so really i think for nato whatever moment moaning that they're doing actually things are going quite sweetly for them in the region through these protests now secant ear a journalist and peace activist i would like to know what do you think happens next how do you think western governments should now be reacting to the situation about diplomatically and on the ground are evacuations to be the next step i think western governments do or western governments do which is to develop an intent to fire the german in germany and control it it's the onus is on the arab and muslim masses to develop actual viable forms of organizations and liberation projects to stop this nato recall and i was asian at the region there and finally do you think

this wave of violent protests threatens the future existence and roll of some western diplomatic missions well absolutely it does but you know frankly you know christopher stevens dying who did so much for nato and the americans in libya is a small price for them to pay really for the big. war which is the focus is iran context all of this in the war of syria against the hizbollah in lebanon and against iran that is the context i think we have to see this in all right sue concho journalist and peace activist live from london always a pleasure to have you on r.t. thanks karen. responsibility for the video that inflame the arab world reportedly rests with los angeles filmmaker nakoula basseley nakoula a coptic christian american and convicted fraudster some of the actors claim all the insults to islam and the video for added later by the film's producers some american bloggers claim that a form of the might not even exist at all what is sure though is the video has left us policy across the arab world facing

a deadly blowback. explains. oh. anger is rising rage is spreading and american flags are burning throughout the arab world this isn't exactly the type of relationship washington envisioned after barack obama became president i've come here to cairo to seek a new beginning between the united states and muslims around the world the new u.s. leader promised to turn the page and mend relations tarnished by george w. bush's war on terror he even granted his first foreign television interview to al arabiya an arabic language channel my job to the muslim world is to communicate that the americans are not your enemy washington invested huge resources in building a massive social media presence comprised of nearly two hundred different accounts to spread its message of friendship by the end of last year the u.s. had spent seventy million dollars assisting foreign citizens with the resources to

bypass online firewalls and censorship. the bitter irony is that a you tube clip posted by one american instantly buried massive efforts made by the u.s. government as americans were being held hostage by a small group of extremists people here in america think when they put their views on you tube and now the technology is such that it can be seen all over the world i think people in. some of these places don't understand this is not the view of most americans this is not the view of the u.s. government according to many experts a large majority of the arab world has grown too familiar with the anti muslim sentiment america is accused of cementing the policy of the americans towards this part of the world is inadequate and doesn't call for dialogue doesn't call for development it doesn't call for progress it calls for the moving of those units

because it puts american interests and some western interests a cause for war and invasion of iraq as we have seen destruction of afghanistan no progress on the peace level in pakistan i think the spark for it to you know all come out in violent forms as we can see now on the screen and this is what's happening within forty eight hours the fury that began in egypt spread to libya yemen lebanon and iran in afghanistan due to push shut down but tensions in the muslim world seem to be only increasing there has been a lot of simmering nancy american feeling right across the entire arab world it's there it's worse in pakistan we're all show that we're ninety percent of pakistanis americans their primary an enemy america's middle of blunders and it's made enemies in the arab spring countries america helped revolutionize the line between friend and foe and this blur despite all the time and money washington has spent using the

internet to promote its islam friendly foreign policy the world wide web has also served as the platform that enabled one american extremist to infuriate millions overseas and darrelle years of progress very important r.t. new york. right and we are also closely following the developments at r.t. dot com and we want your thoughts as to what you think is to blame for the anti-american violence in the arab world right now more than household washington responsible saying it's a blow back or america's foreign policy just under fifty blame irresponsible american islamophobia for fueling the in the underground and slightly fewer think radical anti western muslims all of a calls while the remaining believe the violence is being orchestrated by arab regimes had to archie dot com know and cast your vote. and while you're there were carrying live footage from where the current anger erupted flowed right of north

africa and the middle east we've also a timeline of the violence as it's been unfolding. to other news now taking us to britain britain is suffering its worst housing crisis in modern history with new numbers with numbers of new households rather increasing faster than the number of homes it can build over one point seven million families are waiting for a place to live laura smith has the story. the biggest social issue facing britain today there's a chronic housing shortage and an increasingly thin after dated housing stock that isn't being replaced it's to do with the recession but a crisis was looming even before that house building has fallen by seventy percent over the last fifty years while the population has grown by twenty percent and so

the prime minister has pledged to unleash one of the biggest home building programs this country has seen in a generation but his opponents own convinced by those words especially coming from a government that slashed four billion pounds from investments in affordable housing shortly after its election and affordable housing building starts have collapsed by sixty eight percent council house building stocks have collapsed by ninety seven percent we've not seen before. in our history and it's the responsibility of frail set of government policies and desperate times call for desperate measures one council is reportedly considering asking people to rent out rooms in their houses to solve the shortage of accommodation meanwhile more than half of social housing in some areas is under eight in homes which are north of

london there are more than three thousand families languishing on the housing list while five thousand seven hundred homes are under use and the problem isn't just with social housing decade food under supply i have seen house prices birol out of reach banks won't lend to first time buyers and paying high levels of rents mean they're unable to save up for the huge deposit lenders now require means the average age spent buying your first home is approaching forty years old and many will never be able to afford their own home. demand for ever. you know oil is on the rise despite american sanctions and an e.u. ban on the country's crude the international energy agency said france crude sales are rising now edging over a million barrels a day european and u.s. sanctions were imposed to pressure iran over its nuclear program but maintains it's purely peaceful but iran's resources are still

a hot commodity across the region with turkey china and india currently in the top importers political analyst chris bambery says blocking oil trade with iran could harm other economies. always ball goes essentially implemented by the united states and its european allies having great difficulty in even getting their friends to implement this in boggle for instance japan is desperately getting a waiver trying to get a waiver from washington in order to continue. imports it needs iranian oil but more importantly iran is discovering new markets china is continuing to take really an oil so as india the americans desperate to try ensure israel that somehow sanctions are working in order to see if sanctions are going to go arounds economy just like they did in iraq and therefore we don't need to around a moment netanyahu to do it iran is a major world economy

a world player and actually of europe. can we create an economic contacts in these new other economies are going to step in to fill the breach and therefore in europe there is a fear it's going to be excluded from the iranian markets as a result of these sanctions and i think that is actually what's going to happen. four russian tourists have been killed in a bus crash in greece the russian consulate has confirmed the deaths and also says thirty people have been injured some of them severely their bus crashed on the highway from the region of. the city of sorrow ninety and initial investigation says the driver lost control of the vehicle on the slippery road and the bus overturned the russian tourists were headed for thessaloniki airport to fly home. some other world news in brief for you this hour weeklong clashes in turkey between kurdish fighters and security forces have killed at least seventy five militants and four us soldiers in the south east the military claims it's a part of a large scale offensive which has seen over seven thousand troops deployed to the

area kurds make up the majority of the population in the volatile area and have been fighting for autonomy since one thousand nine hundred four with hundreds of militants believed to be hiding in neighboring iraq. the new u.n. envoy to syria has held top level meetings in damascus including one with an opposition group ahead of planned talks with president assad brahimi is expected to call on nations with political clout to weigh in and stop the bloodshed that has now killed over eight thousand people on thursday syrian government forces carried out airstrikes on the commercial capital after rebels once again try to take over the city clashes have also been raging in western and southern parts of the city and in several areas of the capital. japanese cabinet panel has called for the phasing out of nuclear power over the next three decades the move comes as the country struggles to make the shift in its energy policy after an earthquake and

tsunami devastated the fukushima nuclear plant in two thousand and eleven the government closed down all atomic plants after the accident however some of them have since been reopened to cope with the country's power demand around one third of japan's energy is currently generated by nuclear power plants. and bus has crashed with a fuel tanker in eastern afghanistan killing fifty one people as the vehicles erupted in flames it's not yet known why they collided and a separate incident in the country a nato service member was reported killed in a militant attack in the east violence has recently surged in afghanistan with most attacks conducted by taliban insurgents. in two hours time we talked to a man who spent forty five days in taliban captivity and shares with us his unique insight of what it's like on the other side of the war on terror. whatever captured by the taliban and what i was in prison i had to listen for hours and hours and

hours to tell about recruitment suicide recruitment tips they talked of were they saying to push through in history pushed through in geography bush didn't poetry this is a nationalist movement in their view. they are simply trying to free themselves of for an infidel invaders exactly like their fathers and grandfathers in order to have what they feel is a proper islamic government. to me trees next with the business news and it seems it's a fantastic day on the stock markets in russia that's right the markets are about to close over fifteen minutes ago and they're up around seven percent this hour but it's not just actually the russian markets we're talking about a worldwide rally on the back of the latest moves coming from the fed chairman ben bernanke he has announced that the fed will be supporting the u.s. economy with a new wave of want to easing basically all around asset purchases from the states

and we're talking about huge volumes basically open ended program. they're about to invest around forty billion dollars a month in mortgage backed securities in order to support the real estate market listen to stephen jacobson from. short term of course what happens fundamentally here is staged you make money cheaper and as such you will want to see tangible asses like all the gas gold overall to go up in order to have the system to reset itself so yes it will create an increased appetite but you have to remember this is almost like a science definition of insanity which is state you keep repeating the same experiment expecting different results what i'm trying to say with that is of course this is this third time we do quantitative easing included and then also we have operation twist so effectually that this is going to do nothing to the unemployed in southern europe it is going to do absolutely nothing to the growth of

the u.s. the majors obstacles still remains in place. for a second to how the markets were reacting and this is the opening picture for the united states again around one hundred percent at the close of the previous session when the news of broke and adding yet another big c. and this one percent but not that awful the dow jones so much widely anticipated the move is generating a second day all gains for the bulls second to what's happening in europe it's very much the same picture of the footsie up and the dax one on the hot percent so indeed for months investors have been waiting for a new wave of the stimulus from the government given that the european central bank is school so going ahead with its bond buying program this is a huge wave of stimulus is of course very much supports it too often doesn't hand on the currencies market we're seeing a the tables basically turn for the dolo which just a month ago was around one point two one the against the euro now it's at one point

three one that's a huge change for that and the russian ruble is also stronger against both currencies now that's on the back of high oil prices listen to what's happening there on the commodities markets in light sweet as either one of the hospitals but by. brant does not fall behind and that's a given that the stimulus is going to support the cause of the support consumer spending and therefore increased demand for energy and fuel. also financial problems are making americans lose faith in the banking system according to a fresh report from the federal deposit insurance corporation the so-called unbanked population as grown to eight point two percent of u.s. households stead of banks these americans rely on check cashers and payday lenders to manage their finances no they're not only more vulnerable to high fees and interest rates but they're also cut off from the credit to buy a car or a home to pay for college. and finally on the russian market as i was saying

another twenty minutes fifteen minutes left on the clock for the obvious adding more than seven percent now a huge impact there of forty buying up russian stocks and risk appetites as we heard from from our guest earlier in the program now moving the markets the t.v. is outperforming to my six of almost six percent as you can see the second largest bank in russia and maris k. the federal bridge company is almost nine percent one of the biggest movers although trade is rather thin usually insist demo's was in the market after its second quarter results also now it is reportedly eyeing india's mobile operator air sell countries the media says the deal could be worth four and a half billion dollars and india's mobile market is not new for sistema the firm's m.t.s. brand is currently operating. right well i'll have the exact closing figures for the russian markets next up all right we look forward to thank you dimitri. and on the way of the story of a man who has escaped execution ten times and has been behind bars for almost
