why you should care about humans. this is why you should care only dot com. at ten pm moscow time tyree a square robson fresh protests following the russian parliamentary approval of that new draft constitution which opponents say strengthens islamic law and betrays the revolution we've got the latest this hour of. billiton is reluctant to give its helping hand but germany does approve a massive new aid package for indebted greece while taxpayers decry the squandered billions. in the arab spring encroaches on kuwait now with the staunch western ally witnessing mass protests against corruption in the ruling.

and they are to new centers kevin owen here very good to have you company our top story the angry protests of once again ignited in the center of cairo tonight after a new draft constitution was rushed through the muslim dominated lawmaker assembly there that documents based on shari'a law and opposition activists say it's a betrayal of the revolutions ideals. joins us now live from the capital let's go it was going on there tonight hi there well what is actually going on if you shoulda been in the egyptian capital i can hear some noise how many people are on the streets there. there's still tens of thousands of people on the streets behind me and if you can see here opposing this constitution what they say is that the principle is drafted by the islamist dominated assembly it doesn't represent egypt on top of that it's of course the sharia law and i'm into it all going to an issue where i do is actually simulation the seventy one constitution the problem is that other articles defining sharia law even open to ultra conservative interpretation in addition to that take. and rights watch actually. had

a report today that highlighted the problems of women's rights within the constitution in addition there are articles saying things like you cannot consult an individual which can be widely interpreted and misused and of course one of the main issues is a minute you transfer civilians this is a practice is illegal under international law i mean the subject of many campaigns by revolutionary forces and he's allowed in the constitution we expect the constitution to be handed to the president today and a referendum in the next few weeks but with this continuing disturbance on the streets and more protests are expected really we're not sure how this year but i prefer random can go ahead we're just taking live pictures of your children as you were talking we can see how many people are there you mentioned a number of issues where the constitution will particularly is and get the opposition is the one big crux of it so. i think the biggest crux really is the ways that is the way that it was actually written and as you mentioned it was pushed through and the last minutes by islamist dominated assembly certainly on to

create today the challenge that i heard were against the constitution they were also against the president will seize power grab last week when he made this contentious constitutional declaration which basically awarded two supremes powers but really people are saying they don't want this constitution they want morsi actually to leave at this point in addition only on the outskirts of the square there are still ongoing clashes between protesters and police which have largely died down right now however my colleague tom bosley has been on the scene today to see the effects on the city of these ongoing violence. after days of around the clock protests a cleanup operation is going on here in the streets of tahrir square there's a lot of debris to be cleared up from there was stones that were being ripped up from the pavements and thrown at the police this building hair by the tree the branches ripped off the trees and fires were started by groups of largely young.

protesters not representative of the overall movement but a spillover that caused a lot of violence in the streets around tougher a square the police built this hastily to stop the protesters getting further down we couldn't get anywhere near here throughout the days and nights of constant protest such was the thick clouds of tear gas and the throwing stones understood the fires being lit in buildings many casualties on both sides being dragged away choking on the to gas and with injuries from flying stones a number of protesters have died and many many more have been wounded in protests around egypt over the past few days big protests planned in the coming days it's very much not the end of the story here and it may not be the end of the violence that we've seen in these protests. from the egyptian current party said if

the new constitution gets through a referendum it would even further cement the use of his grip on power. if it gets a popular vote that means it's more or less the constitution that would have filled there's another critical mass that would allow for amendment however there is no mechanism to propose an amendment to the constitution after it passes through the referendum which means there has to be enough to change within parliament and the hands of the non islamic parties so that they can propose such a change which seems to be a questionable how the parliament of the previous parliament was consequent construed forty three percent of the muslim brotherhood and twenty seven percent of the salafist so even if there is a significant changes and you have a fifty fifty percent parliament. that still seems to be questionable that you would have such

a change. now is going to rest in egypt as well as protests in libya and tunisia the many unless of questioning just how much change the arab spring has bought these countries and is gonna cheat you can find there are fears that instead of a better a brighter tomorrow these nations be sliding towards a darker future. less than two years after the egyptian people ousted carful hosni mubarak mohamed morsi granted himself even more power than his predecessor head to the special the kray president morsi make sure that no court can challenge his decisions. that the president's power grab brought hundreds of thousands of egyptians onto the street with a shared sense that their aspirations were being betrayed. unfortunately replace the corrupt regime of mubarak with a regime that is more strict and violent the draft version of egypt's new constitution inserts new islamic references into the country's system of government and keeps in place an article defining the principles of shari'a as the main source

of legislation when they're not in power there are moderates. in the united states and washington the various islamic organizations that dominate in the us but when they come into power they put a lot grip on power it is socially establish an islamic dictatorship the sense of betrayal and disappointment has not left this spring so tunisia the first country to witness an arab spring uprising unemployment there skyrocketed in the wake of the revolution and is now at eighteen percent of our demands are the same as those that have been made during the revolution we want jobs development in the region for the equitable sharing of wealth we also demand the dismissal of the governor who has done nothing for this region but is comprised the development here here where he unfolded less than two years ago the obama administration jumped on the bandwagon of the revolutions hoping to forge better alliances with the new leaders . in libya the u.s.

prompted the change with airstrikes and arms supplies were seen policymakers here in washington trying very hard to present the arab spring as a success story up until september washington had the revolution in libya check as a foreign policy victory for president obama after all the u.s. provided most of the firepower which led to the capture and the. killing of moammar gadhafi only after the tragic attack on the u.s. consulate in benghazi and the murder of the american ambassador there did leave you come back into the spotlight and the chaos that we see there now flies in the face of that success story narrative protests frequently disrupt operations at the main oil refinery in western libya while the new government in libya has little or no control over the numerous militia the civil war has left the country shredded with radical islam is in advantage of the chaos for many in the post revolutionary north african countries despair and violence have replaced the hopes of the arab spring in washington i'm going to check out. well for more on the unrest in egypt and his

background we invite you to check out our web site called we're going to whole lot more than about the general arab spring as well. there's been a collective sigh of relief in athens today as german lawmakers have passed a massive new aid package for the indebted nation aside from releasing greeks more cash and also slashes interest rates delays payments and even pushes back deadlines but it's not his paper all of those footing the bill footing the bill even out at all happy. germany will be giving more financial aid towards greece now we saw m.p.'s voting with four hundred seventy three saying yes to this a package one hundred saying no and eleven abstentions now what this does mean no and it's been talked about throughout the week is in next year alone it could cost germany over seven hundred million euros but we are seeing the politicians at least giving their support financial support towards greece however that support isn't

being particularly backed up by some of the electorate here people on the streets of germany suggesting that perhaps greece should be left to its own devices. that is enough because we won't see this money ever again. at some point it should be stopped it's high time they were capable of helping themselves we're ok for now but someday we could also go to broke this island spec north to vegas is all you should be on and look we've already given at least so much more on the issues started already a lot going on and hung the stars in my polluted side and there's nothing more is mine and i don't talk with them well they were people speaking just outside of the reichstag but that seems to be reflected across the country a recent poll taken by a german television station says that forty six percent of germans want to see greece left to default left up to its own devices however the politicians in here in germany have voted through this next round of financial aid but it wasn't smooth

sailing we saw a very confident looking angle a merkel posting her vote but that belies some rumblings of revolt within her own party and her own coalition the worst people saying no no no we are just going to rubber stamp any things put before us you've got to prove this is in the best interests of germany of course all of this coming around as we enter what will be the campaigning season ahead of a general election here in germany next year so it does seem that the german politicians at least are on the side of angela merkel and trying to give more financial aid to greece over it as in an increasing amount of the electorate who seem to be suggesting they should be cut loose. well before the vote german finance minister a promise this would be the last time taxpayers would be arsed to shell out for aid to greece finance industry expert dr yan hagen believes that's a promise the billions of likely to keep they're still shying away from the real need of greece and there is a significant write on on the greek debt and dead still hasn't happened so my

projection is this was one crisis summit but we will definitely see the next one coming in the coming weeks i think the whole thing is a political thing germany is committed to the euro project i think the germans the german politicians really fear being shown as the nation that brings down the euro so they try everything to keep the euro in tech i think germany has as not only of economically i think it will put a lot of pressure the question is will it just be greece and maybe portugal which we probably can sustain the more interesting question will it stop there or will we see more problems in the mediterranean company countries. not a good day fear of kuwait as tens of thousands of people protested a recent decree of his to limit voting power as is amiss liberals and demonstrates more walks of the political spectrum rallied in the capital denouncing what they see is rampant corruption in the ruling monetary want to keep careful offspring

following the rally. this is the heart of kuwait simmering opposition movements for thousands gathered in the streets to protest what they see as not the proposition at the top of the suppression of the rule of law as well as increasing clampdown on the santa it's not unlike the cold mission of new groups liberals as well as hard line islamists who have all joined together in photos of the manchurian elections many people in this country now feel that the political system along represents them which is why they're calling on people not to take on saturday and not participate and could count on coming saturday. to the camel to. be friendly lawmakers side which isn't necessarily a good thing for the stability of a country which has been a change from one political crisis to the next over the past few years more than most. people. for instance. do you think we can see you know

a good deal and then. it. became increasingly violent clashes in the streets between the opposition forces sort of using tear gas stun grenades was somebody bullets in order to disperse the rallies effectively more fierce about a clampdown on just many activists are still been out either against you or the government arrested for their comments the crisis was far too early or this year when kuwait stopped before it had a normal to separate problem entry election results which would give an islamist a majority in the court had been reinstated the previous assembly which is perceived as being tied to the ruling family what's more the electoral laws were changed in this country in such a way that many people who have gathered in the streets they feel that it is impossible for the opposition to win a victory in saturday's election which is why so many people are calling another kuwaitis to boycott the boat now we know that the western countries will be

watching. what happened in kuwait going to sleep as an opec member of any sort of under arrest on the ground in this country is down to that group prices as well as the pentagon's plans to use the small well rich nation as a hub for its ground forces and to what it perceives as a threat by iran but the point here in kuwait is they really feel like they're stuck in the middle they don't necessarily feel that the government who represents their political interests or the certainly trust egoist opposition to protect their social liberties but nothing shows the power is like this one show that the gulf the moon isn't enough to inflate the countries from people taking to the streets and demanding a greater stake in their political system. all the way it's the nobel laureates versus the e.u. fund of mostly what some of those perceived it was to just be surprise want to strip the union of it's an interesting story that's come out we call the details israel and the us than squaring up to the world now as the two dismissed by the

stunning success of the u.n. more than two thirds of countries did not give the go ahead to its statehood bid. a couple of stories ahead the break. a lovely quiet morning a family gently sleeps in district heights maryland when fifty armed f.b.i. agents storm the house guns drawn despite the family pleading that they were unarmed the law enforcement agents opened fire on a weaponless teenager my asian huli thankfully sholay suffered minor flesh wounds but the key issue is that it remains unknown as to why the house was stormed so here in america for no reason guys in black uniform storm someone's house all loaded some rounds and left with no justification or explanation yes the family

still doesn't know why this happened the f.b.i. . it's remaining silent you know i understand that there are some very bad individuals out there doing some very bad stuff at home but if you don't even really know whose house are storming or why you're storming it then maybe you should lay off the siege for a while you know what take a few minutes to think it over have a cup of coffee and maybe even do a little google search about the fourth amendment but it's just my opinion. more news today violence is once again flared up. these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. change corporations rule the day.

was a one off the happening is the one point six million dollars prize really not be awarded this year and they all say said the clearly not one of the champions of peace a consensus here amongst the significant indeed among many many people when this award was announced this year with that really the awarding of the five european union not looking at the spirit of the neighbor. personally yourself have covered stories of protests and unrest across the e.u. over the last few years so how did they decide to award the peace prize to the e.u. what were you thinking about the prize was awarded at a time when the e.u. is they think the biggest crisis it's faced since its creation we're seeing huge say she'll of rest and you know what a lot of people are saying is that the european union at the moment really for a lot of people. come to represent divisions within society we see those divisions

between the rich and the plot poor between those who employ this around employed you know the people that we speak hindi in these countries really feel very very let down the vision of the european union with about peace and democracy and that's certainly not what people feel that they're getting now the committee praised the for voting after the second world war and spreading stability to former communist countries promoting peace and stability within the e.u. you know it's not all bad the does provide a feed amount of aid a nation but i think what we're seeing happening in the e.u. in the last year really has been very far from the idea of you know people you know first on the nobel committee said write a controversial decision. as you know ninety thousand and nine we thought it would it be president obama many people feeling that was being awarded a piece activities like that some point in the future i guess very much not in keeping with the would we are talking about because the reactions at the ranks of

this latest piece of information about it being contested we had an n.d.p. terry back to say it's highly tedious that the even fulfills the rules under which he wants to be given i mean really very strong reactions. by being awarded as he makes it a project that many people feel represents the total opposite. so first in london online dot com for us abuse in detention for the american soldier accused of revealing those military crimes talking about the bradley manning speaking out for the first time about the brutal treatment he says he's been subjected to in prison going to read it more about someone from us. is this like a question of all of the solar system smallest planet nasa scientists claim they want to reach the great hidden from the rest of. this huge quantities of water as they say you want to find out more about except for maybe you know.

unfortunate and counterproductive that so washington describes the u.n. general assembly as historic vote despite more than two thirds of the world saying yes to palestine's bid for statehood israel's prime minister has called the move meaningless the palestinian people the droid would bring no change to their lives more from artie's policy than in tel aviv. these ladies certainly are downplaying the significance of this vote although we have seen them would use the kind of rhetoric that they've been after another the past few weeks and months so they're no longer issuing the same kinds of threats that they were before presumably because they understand that this will only further isolate them in the international community the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has repeatedly said that this vote does not change the reality on the ground the israeli position is that it is a unilateral step by the palestinians they accuse the resolution of being one sided both the united states and israel saying that it's not going to change the reality on the ground in this despite the fact that we're hearing in some quarters in the

international community and certainly from palestinians themselves that it is a significant step at the same time there is a concern of course within this well that the palestinians will now use the new status to go for example to the international criminal court in the hague where they can accuse israel of alleged crimes and of course these kind of threats in the past has prevented some israeli lawmakers as well as military leaders from traveling abroad because they're all concerned that there could be a wasted over such issues so the united states through its unflinching support for israel has alienated a lot of its old time allies in the united nations susan rice the american ambassador to the united nations after slamming the vote again reiterated the american position that it will not change anything on the ground today grand pronouncements will soon. and the palestinian people will wake up tomorrow and find that little about their lives has changed today's vote should not be

misconstrued by any as constituting eligibility for u.n. membership it does not this resolution does not establish that palestine is a state and yet talking to the average israeli on the street largely the response here is muted most israelis i've been talking to are actually by and large ignoring this fundamental and historic occasion which is a far cry from the kind of reaction we witnessing on the streets in palestine. wills attitude towards the palestinian drive for greater independence a change from that of last year let's take european countries for instance twenty eleven palestinians you may recall saw and finally received membership in the un's cultural agency unesco then the majority of european states either abstained or rejected the bid however at the un vote thursday only the czech republic was the country to say no in europe anyway to the palestinian resolution and that many of those who abstained last year decided now to throw their support behind the

palestinians. well this is this this increased recognition this increase in status in the united nations is a manifestation of increased world international solidarity with the palestinian situation and this will actually bring hopefully a manifest improvement for the palestinians in respect of their access to international law and that ability to have the rule of law applied to their relationship with the state of israel so here in gaza where we just witnessed an israeli military operation exacted on the gaza strip in which fifty nine children were killed seventeen babies were killed palestinians are hoping that this increase in legal status will deter. a nother on sort like that in which kind of syrians believe that the crime of facing war crimes committed against the population here in gaza in the west bank they have a situation not with such sort of military violence but they have on the ground

direct military occupation they have according to palestinians and palestinian terminology an illegal colonise ation process with illegal settlements being built what the hope is in both bits of palestine that is left there will be some practical improvement albeit a small one for them and for their lives very fear officials in israel given reactionless said the state will no build three thousand new homes as part of its settlement activities on the west bank actually un considers illegal many experts say israel's violations of international law only increased support for the palestinians. i think that this is an example. of the fact that. it's showing or continue to show respect. to the resolutions of the. international agencies and to the well of the international community and i think that one of the reasons why very small number of countries. voted against this

resolution very little number of countries. supporting israel is due to the fact that israel is continuing to disregard the will of the national community that has been called by all international community on israel to stop the expansion of settlements but yet they're moving ahead with it which is isolating israel and i hope this will further isolate this aggression policy of israel and will encourage the members of the international community to hold israel accountable in a practical way on its way relations to the international law and its well ations to the rights of the palestinian people especially on the expansion of illegal settlements. was to whistleblower dismissed speculation that his health deteriorating instead he's revealed to us that there will be a new sensational explosion next year which he promises will send shock waves

around the world of course one of laura smith spoke to the wiki leaks supreme. as any journalist working in london now is i'm pretty familiar with standing outside the ecuadorian embassy waiting for julian assange is to come out and talk from the balcony just to my right here but this evening i've been inside to get chris or an embassy to talk to julian as he's recently written a book called cypherpunks freedom and the future of the internet and that's what he really wants to talk about at the moment and we did talk about that we talked about how he sees this increase in state surveillance is hugely damaging for the entire fabric of society how companies and governments can minute the internet for data that is placed there willingly but unwittingly by citizens all over the world let's just listen into a little bit of what he said about that we all think of. some kind of proponent rome.
