and with more coverage of the protests in jerusalem as well as other islamic demonstrations all over the world as artie's correspondent paula. hundreds of palestinian protesters have clashed with israeli police at a border crossing in east jerusalem at least twenty people were injured when the protesters threw stones and firebombs at the security forces who responded with tear gas and rubber bullets now this follows nearly a week of protests here in the west bank and gaza over this form entitled innocence of muslims we've seen protests and demonstrations in the west bank city of ramallah as well as in gaza where both israeli and the american flags have been burned with people chanting death to israel and death to the united states the palestinian authority is calling for the united states to apologize over this form and we're hearing the same kind of course come from the hamas prime minister ismail haniya he says that the fall must be removed and that washington needs to apologize to the arab and islamic world for the offense that it caused demonstrations continue for

the third consecutive day in the pakistani city of karachi here hundreds of protesters continue to march they are holding up banners they continue to oppose the state slogans warning for american ambassador to pakistan and other countries in the region to be expelled immediately we are also seeing hundreds of protesters taking to the streets like you study city of peshawar here the police fired tear gas rubber bullets and also used battens to disperse the crowd as they came close to the american embassy we're keeping an eye on we're going on a way we've seen the greatest number of protesters take to the streets so far in this week long show of protests and demonstrations yesterday monday at least one hundred thousand protesters turned out in the southern suburbs of beirut after call went out his valet leader hassan nasrallah for people to show their rage over this form that mocks the prophet mohammed and we're also keeping tabs today on europe

where a french newspaper has reportedly published caricature is of the prophet mohammed and if this indeed is true it will. need to further up my age and european cities as well as across the arab world north africa middle east as far as field is australia and we will likely just to see the anger continue to grow. reporting right with the muslim world gripped by rage that's one big question this big dog stall across america just what all who are the protests aimed at while some are adamant it's all about the movie others. reports no such illusions. the white house keeps saying it was just the anti islamic video that caused the muslims wrath across the world this is not a case of. protester wrecked it if united states writ large or a us policy this is in response to a video that is offensive but that's a claim no one is buying the administration wants us to believe it's not the

administration's policies that have generated this behavior it's this one idiotic piece of so-called film which is right out there for two months now if you know you think it's stupid film that nobody see causes people to assassinate ambassadors to storm the embassy and the question the us media keep asking why do so many millions of muslims hate the usa but the answers they're getting are the answers the very few in the us want to hear if your point to one thing that makes some muslims hate the usa it would be. hypocrisy over democracy. while america the government now preaches democracy it has propped up authoritarian leaders but that's not the only accusation of hypocrisy that washington is facing there's also u.s. policy makers failure to condemn the violence when it suits their goals like the numerous terrorist attacks in syria washington seems to approve of them as long as

they are targeting supporters of the outside government or another act of violence a rebel mob executing colonel qadhafi. the u.s. secretary of state cheered at the news yes we came we saw that he died that. washington's the leader to condemn all violence equally has prompted radicals to take an even more aggressive course if most americans understood what was being done in our name in the stabilizing the middle east and north africa it would be absolutely horrified what other result we expect people to have noble their economies are destroyed. they're calling for foreign invaders of course this kind of thing is going to happen when the tragedy in libya happened the international community wholeheartedly condemned the attacks on american diplomats but the u.s. for its part has been quite selective in condemning violence it could be that the white house thought by supporting revolutions by fostering regime change they were winning hearts and minds in the muslim world but that doesn't appear to be the case

for now the obama administration constantly refers to the film as the sole reason behind what's happening a reasoning which basically allows them to avoid addressing the deeper issues in washington i'm going to check on. that now a newspaper in france is putting more fuel on the fire of muslim outrage by publishing a satirical cartoon of the prophet mohammed the country has already decided to close embassies and schools abroad fearing a large backlash or let's discuss this further now with a pair of a professor of political science at the university they fall it's good to see you today thank you for coming on the program a straight to my question for you this publication comes a week of after a week rather of deadly protests all across the world of course sparked by this anti islam film we do we're talking about a case of bad timing here bad decisions being made to let this caricature go out into the public to my. actually have two issues here one is freedom of expression

and the other one is responsibility by choosing to publish this caricature as now they're adding fuel to the fire and personally i think it's not reasonable it's not responsible now you can be the expression but you also have to be aware of what you're doing when you publish something in the same way as the movie that was. made in the united states was not very subtle and its intention was insane clearly here in the context is very detrimental to this sort of so you know if you talk about i'm sorry you talk about the freedom of speech then that's all well and good but here we have a france are shutting down its embassies and schools abroad fearing a backlash over this so terrible caricature a cartoon is it worth putting people in danger just for the freedom of speach. well you know it's not just the caricature was a lot of that film they are actually causing all these. all these attacks and

trouble you have on the one hand political context on the other hand which was address fly and preview speakers from america but on the other hand you also. you have the freedom of expression as if they're you in the west this is something which should be defended but within a specific. publishing. wars or remove it can be of a very bad mood very bad move so here you have a clash with you tube or tips. and this being said french french law is problematic as far as freedom of expression is concerned when you talk about the freedom of expression of french law i mean satire mocking islam is accepted in the press but a gathering to protest the notorious anti islam film won't be given police permission in achieving that's just going to further inflame the situation. well.

it's probably going to inflame the situation what a very small number of people the majority of muslims in france do not agree with violent attacks where is the holes greeting is that kind of confusion between the shoots majority of muslims who are nonviolent they don't want to attack anyone and a few groups of people who are violent war. in a violent way it only creates a contingent with the situation of the extreme rate and some. fundamentalist groups within the muslim community which are very very small numbers and may normative within this muslim community that is what people say that is what people say it typically is the outspoken minority and the quiet majority there don't you know that's why we're getting such an outspoken case of basically with it with a minority really raising their voices here but can i ask you just yesterday another

provocative publication was banned in the french media of course that of britain's kate middleton's topless photos or why isn't freedom of speech in effect for that. well actually when the law says when people are targeted as individuals freedom of speech does not a. problem within french law some categories of speech are protected in the name of historical truth other categories of speech not protected so there's a kind of duty which for example does not exist in american law but then you also pay the price of freedom of expression and freedom of expression. and what happens in foreign policy are two different phenomena freedom of expression give me one way for people deliberately want to target communities to attack them and it has a negative and negative impact as a value it's not that when it's. within the range of

a given society the answer to whatever is said is more speech in a democratic society and this is what the u.s. does within its borders now what it does outside its borders in terms of its relations with the muslim world is something totally different and fortunate if you have this clash of imperatives there and some people are hiding behind a. valuable the freedom of speech in order to create conflict between communities. and unfortunately these people come either from the extreme rates in europe or from some of their minority groups within the muslim world where we're seeing the most inferior worldwide now or certainly on many different continents and tens of thousands of reacting to this anti islam film and now we have the press putting out this caricature of the prophet mohammad are something tells me these protests are far from over. a professor of political science of paris where the university and on top of that the fos thanks for coming on our to you today. well the videos

pictures and the full spectrum of the opinion on the global islamic protests are all that r.t. dot com you can also find out more about the aggressive steps that hillary clinton has promised to protect u.s. embassies abroad all of that on our web site. well for moscow this is a scandal is flaring up between moscow and washington after russia's decision to end the work of the u.s. agency for international development in the country moscow says the decision was prompted by u.s. aid attempts to influence the political process inside russia. reports the

minister of foreign affairs has ordered that the u.s. state stop its operations in russia beginning of october first now what is usaid essentially his city and agency which is being funded of course by the u.s. state department and is basically responsible for promoting u.s. interests abroad it's actually it actually answers directly to the u.s. secretary of state now in a rush over the past twenty years usaid has spent two point six billion dollars on operations just a million just this easier alone one of the organizations which usaid is known to have been funding is going to zation cold colas or a voice in russian and among the multitude of things that the organization the angio is doing it's also been acting as an observer during the elections and has gotten itself in hot water with the various state duma deputies who are questioning

its motives and its operations now both usaid and in geo called holistic will be affected by a law which has come into effect in russia this so-called foreign agents was a historically states that a new organization which is actively participating in the political life in russia should be subject. to thorough investigation when it is being sponsored with money from abroad now a law like this exists in a lot of other countries in europe for example or in the united states now of course this means that to all this will have to probably sees its operations in the country as it already has stated officially due to the fact that it will not be able to walk parade it is reported that gets around three million dollars from usa annually and of course minister of foreign affairs has also said that they are ready and prepared to cooperate with the u.s. state law and humanitarian aspects or rather into military and projects in the

third countries so long as usaid respects this mentioned russian war and it does not interfere with russia's internal political affairs it's a quarter past the hour here in moscow with top news in france thinking of making a run for it should a new seventy five percent income tax limit for the super rich be agreed the idea was met with a warm public response but the most successful entrepreneurs may desert the country just when the slowing economy needs the most as. reports. when the world's fourth richest men a frenchman bernard i know asked for belgian citizenship some of his compatriots took offense with one left wing french newspaper publishing this image with this headline the mayor of this area the brussels capital region is confirm that there has indeed establish residence here for the french tycoon denies his move had anything to do with french president francois laws to impose a seventy five percent income tax on those earning above one million but many

suspect otherwise and the rich have become the subject of much discussion. they are quite responsible for this crisis and they should pay more than the rest since they have more. the people who are responsible for the crisis. so. it depends on the rich bankers who contributed to the crisis should pay as well. along to set to soak the rich even more as he struggles to raise the money to fill a thirty billion euro hole in the country's finances the tactic of use to our own doings of people should election against president sarkozy west who says that's because he was a president of the rich friends of yours the income tax rates going up but on top of that. and then on top of that you have a state tax. and on top top top of that we have the seventy four percent tax that's

where really thinking about moving outside friends started but the move did go down well with everyone including some french taxpayers who fear having to foot the bill if the tax the rich strategy fails their fears are well founded as businesspeople consider losing three quarters of their income across there simply unable to bear like thirty year old entrepreneurship in the lafitte he hasn't made the jump just yet but he says he may find himself with no choice is clearly that the course. it that's that that's found. that's found a haven in france. which which basically promotes stigmatize a sheen of success wealth ambition and so on and france is definitely worth its taxes to a certain extent but it's the don't work in my head any more. create more value than for others than that i do for myself with the implementation of the

seventy five percent and so on clearly i will revoke it as an individual and become a tax it is an a for another country like belgium for example but belgians have already taken to the streets to protest against what they call a lack of morality of the rich who come to their country to avoid a certain taxes in france this case this super tax may affect as little as three thousand people out of sixty six million and if that elite minority continues heading for the door the deficit hole will only grow and a lot it may be forced to embrace the one policy he would ject it throughout his election campaign stared. tests are still here r t brussels. now dozens of anti japan the protestors in china have surrounded on a type to the car of the u.s. ambassador to the country during a demonstration near the japanese embassy of the diplomat was left on harm done investigation has been launched into the incident on monday u.s.
