relations between washington and cairo are in for a major test as president morsi isn't due as an image growing tension between the two. american and proud as. the year of the film here is put to use to a time the first violence is seen in greece while muslim continue to get in the states. and voice the u.k. of the billions spent on foreign aid a huge salaries to british consultants involved in the program while trying to hold that post brief but

a benefit concert and price hikes. international news line for this is all see with me our thanks for joining us as anti-american sentiment across the arab world gathers pace tension between washington and the largest the regional powers also grow the biggest question mark is over the future of american drip show relations and present morse's first visit to the u.s. for the u.s. assembly might clarify its main issues and ahead of his trip more secure is washington of having a biased policy in the region and vowed to demonstrate more independence from the u.s. and his predecessor. the possibility of that happening. mohamed morsi came to power on promises to make could the capital of palestine and open up egypt's corridor with gaza his presidency promised his supporters

a chance to reclaim egypt some pride especially on the international stage one of the curious things is that the americans have been to egypt since morsi was elected and they congratulated him but morsi didn't rush off to united states he went to china instead and also to iran which was a diplomatic snub to united states but the snub it seems more of a token gesture because when angry egyptians took to the streets to protest against the united states the muslim brotherhood kept in the background and president morsi is criticism of the u.s. was muted dr saeed sadik a longtime observer of egyptian foreign policy says morsi cannot replace the united states with another world superpower but godless of how much he might want to change your foreign policy or restructure it it's a big process and you need to own it up and the alternative is not i don't think china is ready for. being a policeman the fact is that for egypt to prosper and solve its economic problems
1:03 am
it still needs washington cairo receives close to two billion u.s. dollars a year in economic and military aid and so two and a half months into his presidency the new muslim brotherhood president is having to maintain an increasingly delicate balancing act his hardline supporters on the one hand the west and washington on the other prompting many observers to ask what if anything has changed since mubarak's era egypt today is not very different than it had been under mubarak egypt u.s. relations during the mubarak era or quite strong there is an important partner in economic partner for egypt and it would be very difficult for us to any president coming in during the nomic crisis to rock the boat but the recent violent demonstrations do way. talks of a proposed one billion american dollars in debt relief to egypt and although washington stresses this is merely temporary and there's no major shift in u.s.
1:04 am
aid to egypt the relationship between the two countries remains strained this wall was erected several days ago to prevent protesters from reaching the american embassy on the other side but there is no sign of anyone wanting to take it down a physical reminder of the growing barrier that now exists between labor and washington but it's a barrier that neither side wants to make permanent because while morsi might be poles apart politically from his predecessor on the international front he's trading remarkably close policy r.t. . in europe outrage over a us made film knocking islam in the gulf a new country's first clashes have erupted in the greek capital as police used tear gas and pepper sprayed this past muslim protest is it follows the arrests in france where muslims took to the streets are pro french magazine published caricatures of the prophet mohammed police in paris arrested twenty one people for defying a ban on protest rallies and reacting to the publications of hundreds of students

1:06 am
cannot support it terrorism on monday and condemn it on tuesday and support it again on wednesday they're playing it both ways they don't want to enrage the the people the alleged five million people of muslim backgrounds in france are a lot of people on the other hand they stick to their line that they allow free speech which of course is only allowed in france on certain subjects. then going searing conflict has made many nations in the region fear is for professionals but in neighboring lebanon people are already feeling that clashes between those supporting and opposing syria's president assad have the come a common sight on lebanese streets and everything points of the country being dragged into the war even further out he's a sick af explains. another day another battle in syria. it's a war that has taken on increasingly sectarian tones that some fear could end gulf
1:07 am
neighboring countries it's the states outside that are more vulnerable the neighbors of syria that could be said to be more vulnerable than syria itself called for gratian and civil war lebanon stands right in the path of the blast waves lebanon fought its own civil war on to terry and lines for fifteen years and now the syrian conflict is literally spilling across its border syrian troops have carried out incursions into lebanese territory while rebels take shelter in lebanese towns it is aggravated i'm healed wounds from the past storing fears of a new civil war that's already has had effect here in lebanon it is polarized the politics of lebanon. it is resulted in conflicts that have taken place in tripoli it is resulted in. skirmishes that have happened in beirut lebanon of course vulnerable to this type of sectarian conflict lebanon sunni's mainly support syria's rebels including the powerful militant group

hezbollah tend to back president bashar al assad a member of the alawite sect lebanon was divided in half between the groups that support that syrian syrian regime and those people were actually. helping and corrupt allies and going there for what they scald the free syrian army nowhere is that divide more violently visible than in tripoli on the streets of lebanon's second largest city and sunni gunmen have been battling it out this is been a flashpoint for years but the fear is the violence could spiral out of control and spread across the country when we arrived a shaky cease fire was being monitored by the lebanese army but we spoke to fighters on both sides who showed no willingness to disarm. ok. you know this is the leader of a sunni militia here in tripoli is babble to ban islam i asked him whether peace with his opponents is possible. as long as assad remains in power there won't be
1:09 am
peace in syria lebanon or iraq or powerless done through be no peace while he is in force and neighboring general must send an alawite fighter shows me the destroyed remains of his home when asked to explain the recent fighting with his sunni neighbors this was his response not the dollars just we are defending ourselves against machines of terror in their series who are being brought in from abroad. even the push to defend islam is most unifying figure the prophet muhammad wasn't enough to bridge lebanon's tarion divide in beirut separate protests against an anti islam video has turned tens of thousands of she is to the streets days later a hardline sunni cleric gathered his own supporters in the capital they may have been united in their outrage but protesters carried flags that left no doubt which side of the syrian divide they're on for now lebanon is holding together but some residents here wonder whether this is just the calm before the storm all of this is
1:10 am
such as are going to go. they're going to have their start they can start their careers in the streets here that. everyone is going to fight the streets like that so it's never going to happen this shelled out building stands in beirut's green line which for nearly two decades divided the city journal lebanon's bitter civil war christian communities lived over here to the east muslim communities lived across the street to the west but as the armed conflict in syria continues to escalate just across the border many here in lebanon fear that the fragile peace could yet again be shattered and that sectarian tensions could once again plunge this nation of nearly four million into another civil war for our team and lucy california in beirut. this is also ahead they won't. in the east china sea are hitting up as china serves and patrol ships to monitor a group of disputed islands that were. of a tokyo arms base trade might not be the only two players where as for washington's
