a way to decrease and as you can probably see behind me there's still hundreds of people on top here i'll position forces that will refuse to lead to square and so he backs down in this contentious documents we're going to see. several thousand people in the streets everything for a million man march against this declaration we've seen and protests across the country and not seen with the death so stunning protesters including a member of the muslim brotherhood's he's seen clashes between pro and anti muslim brotherhood supporters in various different governorates and of course we've seen them of people within the chinese syndicates who wanted to call for a strike against sits in addition to the judiciary who did actually call to polish the strike so really we're still seeing massive to send to cross the country with no sign of this abating. egyptians activists are calling mohamed morsi is a new did take to saying yes seize more paula than he than the ousted hosni mubarak ever had just political analysts draitser i believe the current unrest so it's
6:03 am
a revolution has changed little in the country if anything it would simply be a continuation of the original revolution which the revolution if we're going to call it that did not succeed in the sense that it was able to oust mubarak but it did not actually seen power instead it created a power vacuum and one that was filled by the political machine of the muslim brotherhood the muslim brotherhood though they were able to win the elections last year they don't actually have as broad based of the support as they would like to pretend there are many elements within egypt who are very much dissatisfied with the muslim brotherhood who would like to see changes within the political structure of the country this has to do both internally with the political situation but also with the diplomatic and the geo political situation when the people of egypt realize that they've been swindled into five billion dollar strings attached loans from the i.m.f. and this is under the auspices of the muslim brotherhood well the muslim
6:04 am
brotherhood will need some political control to be able to maintain that control with these sweeping powers. morse's decision to assume near absolute powers came just hours after he helped broker a cease fire between israel and hamas in gaza online right now we've got more on how is that crucial role in the truce gave them a green light for the dress of action at home. the remains of the late palestinian leader yasser arafat to have been reburying age after being examined early on tuesday and international team of forensic experts have taken tissue samples from the remains hoping to clear doubts over the cause of his death in two thousand and four a middle east correspondent policia has more. so you don't choose the body of the former palestinian leader yasser arafat was removed from it's more where it's been for the better part of eight years since he died back in two thousand and four and since that time the question has never been on certain exactly what exactly killed
6:05 am
the. most how this thing is believe that israel was behind his killing although israel has repeatedly and consistently denied this at the time of his did if there was radioactive material that was found on his clothing what we're witnessing now is an investigation that is seeing a team of international investigators to take samples of these tissues they will believe any basic asian in various countries around the world will be told that it will take several months for them hopefully once and it will be an answer to the question as to what exactly killed the former palestinian leader when we talk about the death of yasser arafat is a lot of the scenes political maneuvering and repeatedly experts and critics and media analysts have pointed out that the old jazeera network has been at the forefront of investigating what killed yasser arafat in fact they have spearheaded this whole investigation back in july they released a documentary that was entitled what killed our fight now of course al jazeera is backed by qatar and qatar has made no bones of the fact that it's disparate to see
6:06 am
some kind of changes within the p.a. qatar would like to see the palestinian president mahmoud abbas pushed away from power and for more radical elements to come to power not only in gaza but also in the west bank and most notably here we're talking about hamas this would hope because tory's meet their goals particularly in syria where for quite some time they have been pushing for regime change which was also witnessed a growing together in terms of relationship between the qatar and how much let me just remind you that two hundred and fifty million dollars were recently pledged by qatar to hamas to help palestinians in the gaza strip to rebuild their homes in the infrastructure off to the operation. car flared now what we also know is that israel stands to lose from all of this of course israel has been alarmed by the close close relationship between harassed as well as saudi arabia qatar and mohamed morsi very very coming closer together and expressing more vocal and he is also

interment so there's a lot happening behind the scenes we're not just talking about the extermination of yasser arafat's body but we're talking about much longer deeper ramifications. coming up later this hour the bailout battle may be over but doubts remain. leaks believes it should be should be should be you are in the large compared to the normal citizens greece gets the much needed cash flow is aiding the economy but experts say it's not the right partner as the decision makers out of touch with reality. plus the rolling wave of austerity seems to be driving not only protesters on the streets but also of a lot of less than honest people into the supermarkets. france has allocated one point five million dollars in aid to the new syrian rebel coalition that's despite criticism the foreign base of block a may not have enough support inside the country or even much control of the n.t.'s fighters on the ground was

allocate money for a special unit reportedly made up of some five hundred people who will train the country's forces according to one b.b. and militia commander a team of americans is already in the country looking for recruits a major obstacle in their wary a vastly divided society there isn't an army and maybe and now and the army is not going to be because whenever you try and get militias which have been region says to a variety of rays of things than the national interest so they have the legions to drive or to a sect or to a religion rather than having allegiance to the nation or to the country you cannot build an army. but with training and aid fully via the u.s. we have more pragmatic goals then why do you argue we're just teaching them the best way to fight this we're training it actually because it's really about not so much about you know teaching people how to use rifles and how to use new equipment
6:11 am
it's all about really what indoctrination make any aid each one of the children the u.s. uses and as you very successfully put. in short the elite in the countries concerned stay loyal to the u.s. . law to meet terms of foreign policy to state law to them in terms of opening their economies are economic and to u.s. multinationals will be a movie version. for the united states and yes it will start buying american arms while movies libya has lots and lots of money to spend according to the state department this year alone the u.s. spent six point three billion dollars financing foreign armies it argues investing in foreign militaries helps build better alliances and further american interests abroad from the point of view of the u.s. government of course it's very useful to have other countries militaries integrated into the u.s. they get the training then they get the equipment they get the arms it's the full

6:13 am
according to the obama administration american forces are supposed to have completely left the country the afghan government has less than two years to agree or reject the idea the u.s. government may be looking at training armies abroad is a smart investment sort of like outsourcing makes sense in business it's cheaper than having u.s. troops on the ground no need to explain dead troops coming home makes sense from a lot of perspectives but that strategy has backfired more than once in the past eliminating populations that didn't want to see their military become a student of washington's wars in washington i'm gonna check out. more news after the show break don't go away. gracefully. it is a way of life traditionally the people are. herders and.
