suspected of violating his probation after being released from prison last year after doing time for financial crimes meanwhile aggressed also continues in egypt where police pushed demonstrators out of to rere square and away from the u.s. embassy on saturday reporting for two years for the summer. if you look behind me you will see the security barrier that the security forces pulled on friday morning and this was to try and stop protest is reaching the american embassy which is just on the other side i spent several hours one time in that mine and because there's simply no way to run to all the shops and barricaded the windows as well as the doors that the hotels in the area have closed down and that continues pretty frightening when you have protesters on the one side holding these huge chunks of glass and concrete at the security forces who were firing constant rounds of tear gas overnight there was also an attack by forces on an american base in the afghani stump up in helmand now at least two of us movies were killed in the ninety's many

stale the aisle to security perimeter you know this is also the base the way the british prince harry was stationed but that he managed to go on home and there have also been protests taking place as far afield as a strange wait several hundred protesters chanted messages such as down down in your estate in the sense that we use it to gas to disperse those crowds the demonstrations are now spreading like wildfire across north africa and the middle east of course the anger being expressed on the streets is anger against this american made film that that mocks prophet mohammed we've seen demonstrations in back in the dish in malaysia in gaza also in iraq in sudan at least three people are known to die in demonstrations in the capital city of course soon these took place when protesters try to reach the american embassy and to get into the united states is sending the means to back up security where the german as well as the british embassies were also. to attack in yemen with these people have to be in

space and they're u.s. marines have a wife team a capital city of sana'a to try and just use the situation in tunis we're hearing that at least two people have died this happened we called scaled the walls of the american embassy and managed to get inside the compound basically fire on some of the keys inside the compound and at the same time they set fire on an american school leaving a constable evan on at least one person there was a chain restaurant a much higher massive council sitting gathering not only there in the northern east of tripoli also it's missing and in the capital city of beirut at the same time if you could maybe a with the prime minister to come to see the american ambassador as well as me personally and see the u.s. mission there have. been a lot of things as well as the mission a friend who's had an open investigation has made several arrests for me hearing

from them that they believe that this has all the telltale signs of all kind of city we have seen how kind it means at demonstrations i'll swim in the regions at this at this moment the mood is incredibly volatile. or it's a no time to discuss this a bit further the ongoing current troubles in the islamic world the. professor and dean of the gentile school of international affairs joining us live from india good to see you today as i'm sure you were just listening to our correspondent paula so we are she is in cairo certainly talking about the regional aspects there of the tensions that have alternately eased compared to the ongoing violence elsewhere do you think the muslim brotherhood's decision to call off the mass protests had an effect. and certainly the polar r. and b. or c. in recent weeks that of them are centered themselves over the military and see how to calm you back and also remember that egypt is a plane fly and who owns and west and financially. and you can't really interests.

too much so i do the roku. remember the salafi use and the ones who are said to be actively engaged in the forests are not entirely brotherhoods controlled so. no. political space and the extreme islamists i think will continue to try to prop up the crowds in the region the anger and attitude against . people remember the dealership's was not on the field on the side of revolution and so there is a lot of pent up but anger against united states because it to trade at its level best to keep mubarak in power well as a source as you said i'm sorry jump in but as you as you mentioned certainly officials in cairo are looking for more western aid coming in now to this new fledgling government there but it must be quite difficult for the role of the local political figures when trying to control this anti western backlash here they are looking for more funds from the west at the same time as possible but some of the

egyptian politicians maybe sympathize with the very people that's trying to say stop protesting and go home. and that's right and we need to be unimaginable in the time for these kind of groups to have been even alone so suddenly there is an anti american queen and streamed throughout the gyptian polity and that is being reflected between these previous leaders they would have to try their best what are you i'm afraid of some of us are not entirely and many were to the brother who served weiss so there's a lot of fees the as you know have outside support so they're not going but they're also proxies in many ways of so they really and consider this simply was taking the islands in syria. actually how hand here to school i see. anyway is an extension of the proxy war that is going on in syria we're so fierce an extreme fundamentalist and we unleashed in the name of toppling the assad regime the seams of these are no money fisting themselves in a violent and reactionary manner cranky food that should have been ignored it was pleased to have you can you talk about this this violent reaction and this

aggression that we're seeing not just in cairo but all over the world at the moment it might seem bizarre to some but the most lives far in this failed what's the prophet mohammad they find it offensive and then they walk out and hold protests where some of their own people are being killed in the violence does not seem a bit bizarre. well you do definitely politically more we are to i think you know the producer down the road in australia in foreign countries which are the from the epicenter of the arab spring region i think those are more spontaneous but of libya egypt yemen these are like was delusional societies and this is weird we have seen the brunt of the violence and the skill of the crew has said we would rather hike and i think these are political yoga distributed by local actors who are being backed by some of these rich donors from these don't want to also behind. in studio there is a connection with all these you cannot be you know green from chaff we need to look

at it in all of it to get the right guy but you say you say there are some political agitators or actors as you call them who are trying to stop the violence i mean is that certainly maybe true in some areas i don't think we can say that before the global violence that we're seeing in so many different parts of the world right now however i must ask you to tell me and all of our viewers as well do you think the volumes that has been rising now throughout the week do you think it's peaked or is there more to come when the friday prayers as you know in the islamic world are really really critical for mass mobilization and for arousing moms know that the friday is all or i would think they do you know it's going to lead to more then you know will be to remember the danish cartoons during the one. you know they went on for a long time and i think even though the water is now officially all of the water not going to standing still on so i'm not surprised that the united states is being moved to carve it off the air you know for muslims around the world even though the u.s. government had no hand in making these you since. you have professor and dean of

the school of international affairs a very pleasure to have you on r.t. thanks so much for joining us today. but we also are closely following the violence that continues to unfold throughout the arab world of course dot com with the protest timeline and in-depth analysis as well as a full profile of the man behind the scandalous anti muslim film you can just log on to find out more. now washington's struggling to contain the scandal condemning the controversial film while calling for calm as he is going a church can reports the anti american fury has deeper roots than a simple reaction to a clip on you tube. as angry mobs in muslim countries stormed u.s. embassies and burned american flags the u.s. president delivers yet another speech about how good america's intentions really are and have been in the muslim world america's a friend that we care not just about our own country not just about our own

interests but about theirs that even as voices of suspicion mistrust seek to divide countries and cultures from one another the united states of america will never retreat from the world. we will never stop working for the dignity and freedom that every person deserves it could be that the obama administration thinks by supporting revolutions by fostering regime change washington is winning the hearts and minds of the people in that part of the world but recent events showed that's not quite so if you look at poll numbers that gauge public attitude towards the u.s. in different muslim countries u.s. approval rating is the same as it was under president george w. bush in some countries like pakistan it's much worse and these numbers have nothing to do with the infamous film but they do have something to do with us policies you know we can rap any kind of purple finger revolution we want people to have democracy and have freedom but at the end of the day when we look at the results of what's been accomplished over two decades of being in this region destabilizing the

region we have hundreds of millions of people who had it in a lot of cases had their world turned upside down and in many cases they've had relatives that have been killed in this process and we're building enemies towards this country and you know it i think that there's a need for a major wake up call in the west especially the united states the way the administration is trying to somehow contain the blowback over this same type islamic film is by bashing the film and saying that they too find it disgusting but now it's clear to pretty much everyone that it's not just about the film this rage against the united states has been brewing for a while and it seems it needed just us bark to blow up and the film tragically provided that spark need ministrations soothing words about democracy don't seem to help much in putting out the flames of rage now sweeping across the arab world in washington i'm going to. add a we're coming to you live from the heart of moscow where russia's opposition has

gathered for what is expected to become its first large demonstration since june and for the first time the anti-government movement is joined by public sector workers let's cross over now it was easy to go to prison office on location of the bring us the latest to you go to good to see. you understand it's very noisy where you are you think this protest is in any way different from the ones we saw earlier this year. well rory what makes this protests very different from the others is absolutely as you've said just correctly that this time public sector workers have joined opposition activists as well and we hearing very precise demands this time for instance to freeze or the growth of prices for utility charges to raise the salaries of public workers of workers working in the public sector on the floor sponsored by the state budget like doctors teachers. or drivers of public transport and so on many of them are here at this rally and

really we've heard just demands from these people for the government to be much more attentive in making their lives making the lives of ordinary citizens of the country just much better bigger salaries and just to feel more protection from the state or you go to as usual in the it's a mixed bag of people who are attending this demonstration but as you mentioned there are some people again who are calling for political reform here in the heart of moscow it did you think that's the majority of the issues the concerns among the demonstrators there although if they're off into other realms other subjects as well. you know apart from the demands for these social reforms which i've just named of course political reforms are also. taking a very large part of this movement of the play of the demands that these people are making many are calling for. parliamentary reelections for presidential

real actions there's lots of criticism of several laws which have been passed just recently like the controversial law on foreign agents which. sickly abides n.g.o.s which which are sponsored by foreign spawn funds to be specially monitored by the authorities and to be registered as foreign agents there's also this a law which is aimed at protecting children which many critics say is actually aimed at censoring the freedom of speech in the media and well including the internet there's also lots of talk about the controversial pussy riot case of the members of the sponsor bands which performs this controversial punk career prayer in christ the savior is got the job or they received two years in prison in prison each officially for hooliganism a based on religious hatred that many people here

a claim that this is purely a political case and the members of the band who are punished for their political views there's also a lot of anger about the recent story around one former deputy off the state duma was released for his duties and many here also say that this is because this man is involved with the opposition so once again this specific protest i guess it may start the new tendency in the opposition movement since it doesn't all only give these. well it gives specific precise demands both social and political you know ok you describe the risk right of some of the issues that people are pushing for some of the reforms that calling for the demonstrations whether it be political reform all issues to do with pussy riot or even gay rights as well but what about the people as well what kind of people making up the opposition yeah yeah. well there's

a great variety of different groups of protesters which came to this rally today i would say that well probably normally they don't really share any activities because they could be on or case they could be. a socialist they could be a liberals they could be environmentalists they could be gay rights activists they could be well pretty much you name it all the possible political or social or environmental movements they do have their representatives here so in this sense this is a good sort of platform for them to be able to voice their views which are often very different and while we've been able to speak with some of the protesters who came to this rally here's what they had to say was the united states and that were attending the rally to save areas of our natural environment both big and small from the threat of construction here carol well i'm from the communist party so i'm not actually taking part here i'm here to hand out these newspapers so that more

people can know the truth about our party and our leaders are gonna. look i just hate when i'm being lied to full stop we have to do with this theater choosing i want to live in a free country i want to choose what i want say what i want and do what i want i'm a teacher and i came here today with my friends to achieve these goals which was so clearly the some of the activists here they do have very different views but are able to voice them here on this rally officially. say that out around ten to twelve thousand people came here i'd say that it's maybe a little bit more than that but so then the tens of thousands which jay opposition says i think it's not over twenty thousand but i can tell you that so well a lot of people are now beginning to leave i've noticed that around after around

five pm so we'll see how it continues since this march is well this rally was allowed by the authorities to be held until ten pm moscow diagonal to say you know to testify that live in central moscow thank you. now let's get some more details on the rally ongoing now let's speak to a political analyst alexander who is keeping an eye of the opposition movement good to see you today as i'm sure you were just listening to our correspondent you go to chris going off the winter demonstrations in russia brought tens of thousands of people onto the streets today among the estimates between ten and possibly twenty thousand the numbers are apparently going down why do you think that is. well eighty eight is all there is is a lot really low levels of action i mean it's and so it will be as he needs them that is that they have things they think they need to lead as we have to get those levels of else he says he's working and i believe that. the things that they keep

say from the stage and the people involved is the people on the stage they have to be you know. great example to the polls and it is that whole so so far they have the announcing and they have been for playing some slow dance again as they used to do in the spring or. any progress and again great story that they need a program to be heard and they need a program to be actually going to take it seriously so far we see that the legal guys in the state and the people see what stands. out of the rallies they have very mixed and they come from different backgrounds and there is not a single thing that really unites them so actually to be heard as if they need something informal that aids basically in the suv for the people of that school now

for the support are going to live on of a political analyst i do apologize we've just got a really rotten signal right now and we're trying to get a better signal about a connection here and we'll resume this conversation a bit later i do apologize and thank you for your patience. thank you for your patience as well britain has launched an investigation into the scandal involving oil traders and city speculators who allegedly rigged markets to hike pump prices at a soaring cost of fuel in the u.k. so uproar among consumers a already struggling with the country's double dip recession smith this report. this this. again. time mates traders and speculators in for a grilling as the energy minister announces an investigation into raking over the petrol price it's meant fulls in the oil price on pulse on to consumers making petrol and diesel more expensive in real terms than they've ever seen pump prices are quick to fill when the oil price rises but very slow to cool when it goes down

petrol price campaign is calling on they found guilty of breaking the price to go to prison the scandal follows a huge rise in the price at the pump it's gone up ten p. since early july to around one pound forty elites and the high priced tilts of doubt into the entire economy ninety percent of everything we have in our homes is delivered by low rate and with fuel prices so high school it's companies are full of to post that expense to consumers making literally everything food clothes domestic appliances more expensive it also impacts on labor mobility so how far people could travel to get to work and whether they can get new jobs that require travelling some distance to the fuel price can even if it's on the unemployment rate which is hovering around eight percent at the moment what's not clear is what the alternative is speculating on what is the price is one of the consequences of

free market capitalism which often results in corporations getting which sometimes at the expense of ordinary people so imprison the perpetrator as they might but it's unlikely to change much what it will do is divert attention from the government after all sixty percent of the price consumers pay at the pump is tax the highest in europe. with about report now iranian oil is once again in demand despite an e.u. embargo on us sanctions the international energy agency. he says tehran sold more of crude in august than july despite being hit with even more international restrictions or the measures are aimed at forcing iran to end its nuclear program which tehran maintains is peaceful but now the agency says that oil sales are edging over a million barrels a day the country's resources of much in demand in china and india those are

currently at the top and porters meanwhile the u.s. treasury claims of sanctions a yielding results and actually slash their own screwed exports but policy director of the national iranian american council he says that tehran's nuclear. will not in any way be affected. i don't know that you could actually look at the lost revenues from oil exports and say iran has taken away money from its nuclear program or reduced money for military spending because frankly with the threat of war i think iran is probably continuing down that path that has already already has been on with sanctions you know there's no perfect sanctions regime there's always going to be a whole series always going to be loopholes there's always going to be this game of whack a mole where iran responds and then the u.s. tries to ratchet up and you're never going to get a perfect embargo so i think that the question is the question is ok now you have these sanctions what do we do with these are we going to leverage these or is this a repeat of what we had with iraq where we did

a great job of restricting oil sales and then doing oil for food at the end of the day that didn't actually yield anything but massive humanitarian suffer suffering and then eventually this movement for disasters invasion. it's a world of daytime here in r.t. will start with spain where tens of thousands of demonstrators are marching through the streets of madrid in protest against new economic reforms the government is due to announce a fresh set of spending cuts by the end of the month but public sector workers fearing they'll be hit hardest by the latest round of austerity is expected to boost spain's economy and keep it from seeking a multibillion euro belt out. of the new u.n. envoy to syria says the crisis in the country is escalating and poses a danger to the entire world locked up he me is now in damascus and as a ready made president assad as well as several diplomats and opposition leaders both the rebels and government forces are still ignoring calls to end the fighting
