thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us but is the wave of recent violence the anti-american a wave of protests across the middle east do you see that as a coordinated effort or or perhaps just a reaction to what's going on on the ground it seems to me that what happened in libya was well planned and well conceived i mean very well planned. i mean not something that happened just out of the blue and it coincided of course with the anniversary of nine eleven. and seems to be more serious i don't think that necessarily suggests that everything else that this that occurred during this period. was therefore coordinated or well designed or well planned and wanted to touch was a real sense of anger at what people see as the continuing aggression this a.c.u.

traditions against culture against their way of being in this region by western states the recent events the sudden outbreak of salafist and in libya itself in the the very seats of will keep americans or a new new era marriage break will cause. the west cumulatively to begin to question and start the process which they need to do which is really to reassess what actually is going on it's not the awakening people thought it's not simply a popular impulse of the oppressed against the oppressors it's far more than that and what we are seeing is the overlay of the dynamics here is the gulf states saudi arabia or. other gulf states that are trying to create a sunni bloc in the west and. as they try. i had to create the salafist sunni

bloc in the east and succeeded no it's the here and it's causing huge turmoil and huge internal conflict within the reach of referring to the killing of the u.s. ambassador in libya secretary of state hillary clinton our mark how could this happen in a country that we helped to liberate what are the u.s. foreign policy makers missing when it comes to their supports our interfering in countries with a competent stance towards the west indeed i think it is causing a real sense of anxiety and a sense of schalke in the united states widely because this whole narrative that somehow the awakening was going away was reflecting and you know much of that was simply based on the. narrative that was promoted by many mainstream western press that look they're using twitter and facebook therefore it must be

western in its orientation well of course you find the salafist groups using facebook and twitter not necessarily to promote western values but i think that gave it the sense that somehow this was throwing in the west direction and i think this is come as a big wakeup call to to the western states for the moment we see a tacit if you like alliance between radical elements in the united states in bringing down assad and bringing down get our feet but when that's finished where will that are and where will. their objective turn it will turn precisely on israel and america. living i've seen for twenty five years people think they're using the salafist as sort of simple pious people who don't understand politics with their end only to find the salafist use them for the veterans and i feel that this is how. they will find that a. will turn on them and will bite them just as it did twenty five to thirty years

ago but what lessons has the us failed to learn when it comes to its experience in afghanistan and how does that relate to what's going on right now i remember in eighty seven going and talking to the americans about it and saying you know you need to really understand the big differences between these groups that are taking part in this alliance put together and you have to understand some have credibility and real roots within the community but others do not at all quite different and the americans and the senator i remember at the time turned to me and said listen i was thank you for the advice and mourning is about certain groups in afghanistan but look i just want to tell you they're the ones that really came communist pass and so we looked away didn't want to know what was happening we preferred not to go because it was so popular domestically with president reagan with mr thought it was going down well no where in the area where king gadhafi is us where king president

assad is a popular sport in the west and good domestically so we don't look who are these groups in syria who were the groups in libya what really owe their change it or their objectives truly to bring about as some in the west imagine a simply a more liberal society a more democratic and easy breathing society of course justice twenty five thirty years ago people didn't want to hear it was unpopular to say anything so it's been extremely unpopular here so are you saying that the west miscalculated chose the wrong alliances perhaps i think that they miscalculate totally what was happening they chose they created americans for themselves it was a constructive narrative that really all of them. the initial awakening which was

popular and had real popular impulse and it was somehow vindication of european values of american values and they misread this it was not it was in fact when you heard that it was a protest against injustice in iniquity it was a protest against neoliberalism it was a protest against the absolute support of the west against for israel and for. its policies against the palestinians that may not have been at the forefront of all of the climate but the reason that these dictators like mubarak had been so impulsive that was precisely because he was the instrument of the west the instrument of suppression of the power and that it was all was really behind the protests that took place so it was not an endorsement of western values it was a reaction and i think the recent violence that we see against western embassies

not just american western sharply on the line symbolically the limits of western influence in this region this is pushback against their attempt to shape and mold the so-called arab awakening for their own purpose to install their own people their own successors for their own interests in the area when it comes to syria how do you see the conflict there playing out is peace at all possible at this point or haply surpassed that opportunity i don't think until now we've had a window there's not really been a real window for negotiations because the west has not wanted. the opposition to seriously negotiate except on a complete collapse. of president assad and in the syrian system i think. maybe a window. arising in the near future and i do hope that the west will instead of

ridiculing and belittling russia's attempts to try and have a negotiated outcome. supported because russia place a crucial if there is ever to be a negotiation between the two parties will have to be guaranteed to have to be guarantees for the opposition who's going to give the guard the un. west of course only russia can really play a crucial role in resulting i'm sorry but a un negotiator the un has no standing and no legitimacy in syria amongst either side at this time and are you worried about the ongoing violence in syria spilling over here into lebanon and potentially fracturing the society here of course everyone is worried and it'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 and in in the south. we see reflections of this taking place and lebanon is of course vulnerable to this type of sectarian conflict but so was jordan and so is iraq and we are seeing the same effect also taking place so it's affecting the whole region and if there is if it continues and of course if the money in the weapons continue to be poured into syria it will of course continue for a certain extent. no government can stop two or three people and car bombs does continue the tensions will increase. but they may explode outside in fact i

think in many cases. at this stage it's the states outside that are more vulnerable the neighbors of syria that could be said to be more vulnerable than syria itself to call for gratian and civil war while israel remains a surprisingly untouched it would seem at least on the surface by the rise of radical islam do you expect that to continue and how do you see this playing out i think at the moment it's quite crude that the palestinian issue is almost obscured hardly even on the agenda. but of course i don't believe that this will persist i believe that the palestinian issue has been so crucial to the self identity of so many states whether it's egypt whether it's syria itself that when things settle down the palestinian issue will of course reemerge and of course israel is not unaffected it may not be feeling the effects now. but look i mean what's happened

has been as dramatic a change as south africa experienced all those years ago at the time of the implosion of the soviet union suddenly. israel is now surrounded in egypt perhaps soon in jordan and elsewhere by a very different region from the one in which. it previously existed thank you. for. bright. sun. from feinstein christians.

no longer an issue because some of the world's best players are now strutting their stuff right here in the continental. alex said that she has returned to his home scenes in a moscow from n.h.l. the washington capitals was marked by two points in as many games for the new jersey devils in the a couple chick on the other hand the match against all these to you became his cage and there is successful one too has sky st petersburg out scored the muscovites by three books to one you know a family and all the friends here and greats are playing from their home crowd to know that people here they're enjoying watching hockey especially those reiver you know top teams play against each other and i think it's all fun too though the battle for a place in the gari cup playoffs is still months away but that you can couple chook duck soup and other looks out and h.l. ors are ensuring top attendance at various cage hillary nets from seven countries

in europe and yet most i'm very happy that players like alex ovechkin decided to come home i hope that he will shine here just like in the n.h.l. i'm glad that he opened his scoring tally today and hopefully he and the rest of us will help us win the title which is. well a dead skins dinar most certainly have plenty to look forward to this season but capitalizing on opportunities will probably become the priority in the immediate future though it will take him some time to adjust the bench can already knows what needs to be done to achieve that success. i can feel trust from my teammates and the coaching staff were showing combinational an attractive playing if that was what scoring is our weak point we netted seven in the previous match and won today so we need to find that golden mean when we score three or four and pretty comfortably. so because the n.h.l. and its player. as union continued to cross takes over cash north america is now missing out on top notch ice hockey action and their loss is now russia's and other

cage held countries gave as even more n.h.l. ors are now seeking a path to the continental elite room on cost ardsley moscow. ok let's move on raymond's preparations for the super eight stage of the twenty twenty cricket world cup could hardly have been worse the reigning champions of the short game recording their lowest ever t twenty score in the ninety run the feat to india both sides already secured their place in the super eight making this much somewhat of a dead rubber however and help ensure broad still will not be pleased with what he saw india reaching one hundred seventy four overs in replying and struggled with india's spinners and were still logged out for a tea party on sing in particular to the forward figures of four for twelve. while it was an adrenaline heaven for daredevils in switzerland this weekend with the world's top freestyle bike still bored on ski specialist showcasing their

during maneuvers in zurich the it being position of the freestyle event bringing in some thirty two thousand spectators as well the mountain bike jump was included in the event for the first time with martin super strong at the top moment and winning first of all the four times which were up for grabs things turn cold shortly after that with snowboard maestro charles deal more pulling off a double for twelve sixty truck driver that is what it's called for the trophy more fun in the snow on skis henrik hard nosed but her double poor twelve sixty putting him atop the podium in his commentary the bar was likely to be raised even higher next year as the event nears its to defeat. finally russia's national cross-country run has successfully concluded the annual event which is the biggest sporting gathering ever in the country attracting over one million participants across eighteen cities michael christian who was at the moscow lake of the race for us. it's one of the oldest sports and one of the simplest since it was included in

the first modern olympic games back in age ninety six cross-country running has barely changed and why should it it encompasses everything that's needed in sport strength stamina fitness and competition but to name a few but today's nationwide event is also about uniting a nation. if the design to unite the nation friends family and friends of sport and even those when the longer active like me have come down to support the cause we are all around to give an example to people atlantics and running and not only about strength it's also beautiful and though it has been running beautifully. many prominent figures in athletes were among the one point two million people who don't their running gear in roughly eighty cities across the country and just outside moscow russia's minister of sport were telling would call was on hand to officially open the race and also partook in a rather symbolic run with fellow colleagues. ultimately everyone who was taking

part today is a winner there's no need to overdo it everyone should be picking the distance and speed that suits their stamina and fitness that's why i chose to run only five hundred metres. another pleasant factor was seeing so many youngsters willing to come out on a dreary sunday morning to take in the fresh air open space and party atmosphere. will look like a very interesting sporting event we need to support sport as best we can i myself do a lot of swarthy so that's why i came. the event will no doubt continue to be a success in coming years with russia determined to further promote a healthy lifestyle while it probably won't rival the world's biggest nationwide cross-country event which was held recently in the philippines attracting over four million people it's still the biggest sporting event in russia and judging by the turnout today it's proof that people here definitely do approve of a healthy lifestyle as to why.
