the latest news and the week's top stories this is the week here on r.t. with me your leadership of our thanks for joining us kaye also spreading in egypt where the more deadly clashes and portside in cairo are at least thirty two people including two police officers and two footballers have been killed after crowds tried to storm a prison in the seaside city the riots followed death sentences given to twenty one people for their role in last year's football stadium right which led to dozens dead while in the capital police fired tear gas as anti-government protesters tried to storm government buildings local reporter about true has more from cover. the violence continues here in cairo between protesters and security forces on the cornice by the nih and this happened after protesters decided to move the demonstration from tahrir square to the parliament building then security forces responded with quite a lot of tear gas the air here in downtown cairo is really stinging even at this
2:02 am
time to it's very hard to breathe when you're outside meanwhile the situation is definitely escalating in port and over three hundred injured the army are still on the streets apparently they've managed to secure the area around the prison where the twenty one defendants who are possibly facing the death penalty are being housed but we are getting calls from hospitals for food for more blood they need blood for the injured and also medical supplies where the president was supposed to be traveling he canceled his travel plans as the situation developed in port sayit he met with his national defense council to discuss the growing crisis across the country will they said is they may resort to a state of emergency in some of the areas that are the most violent because you asked for a dialogue with the opposition you for the opposition's part the national salvation front they've released a statement with five demands calling basically for a new national salvation government to take over they've also said they'll consider
2:03 am
boycotting the parliamentary elections we should see you in april and for also asked for an early presidential elections what they're saying is basically they don't believe that president mohamed morsi is the just minutes and he's not on any of the demands of the revolution and should therefore step aside. and. so they could sell my newspaper says the people of egypt have grown increasingly disillusioned with the politics of the muslim brotherhood. we voted for him to be a good chance. to be lost. for most of the people who are out in the streets to the people in egypt now to realize that. religion and politics should be mixed clearly and that some. would use. religion to get the support of the people and once we
2:04 am
are viewed in very very differently from what the been promising and that's. one of the reasons of the anger you are seeing to the industry to egypt americans want some is going to be to ensure and secure their interest in egypt right now and neither the united states nor morsi himself much say what's happening to the people of egypt who are back in the streets that. is why the fate of the. french led troops in mali have retaken the key town of guile after first major advance an effort to drive out al qaeda linked militants from the country's north they joined a contingent carried out as trikes and also took control of the apple and a bridge over the niger late or that. point of like a ripple of the strong militant presence in mali is being seen as
2:05 am
a result of their france led intervention to oust cannot get out the. that people. you wanted peace you wanted freedom you wanted economic progress france great britain europe will always stand by the libyan people are. but a regional crisis probably wasn't what mr sarkozy anticipated when he was spearheading the military operation to topple moammar gadhafi although the former french president can't say that he hadn't been warned personally i play a significant role in establishing peace in those regions of africa should the situation in libya be unstable al-qa'ida will establish its rule a lot and will return and libya will be another afghanistan the terrorists will flood to europe cut to paris and almost two years later markets after his words could well be ringing in the areas of need what i saw was the successor francois hollande having just sent troops to mali france's new leader could well be learning
2:06 am
that every action has a reaction. sickness not only did the french intervention in libya not help the democratic process which is what they said they were after but it is fact if it opened up the floodgates for weapons stockpiles and fighters to leave the country and go south of the border this is no more to mali where the recently deployed french military were reportedly stunned by the technologically advanced weapons that are in the hands of their adversaries nobody seems to think that perhaps organized groups come from somewhere other than mali it seems they came across the nearby libyan border libya is as i say central to all this problem because all the a lot of reckons it's been produced by the collapse of the darfur region but also by the complete failure to establish any kind of real state you have essentially all talk rating in different parts of libya and you have across much of this hour a situation where people have arguments for vengeance of
2:07 am
a sense so bribery and corruption order grabs is commonplace gadhafi was bitter opponent all right it was ahmed groups whatever his faults and they now have the ability to use the chaos in libya to provide the basis the fast effects for immediate hostage crisis in algeria said to be in retaliation for the french offensive in mali has already claimed the lives of dozens of civilians taken captive and i'm frightened of terrorism but this is always been a problem for france whether it's iraq or sarkozy this is just a i'm french i was born here and live here my culture is french my origins are there and i was there is like another country telling me. you know we're scared of anything that threatens us. france's global allies are showing signs of being sucked into the mali conflict british prime minister david cameron has already acknowledged that factoring radical insurgency in the region could take decades
2:08 am
rather than months and all this so that france can remedy the knock on effects. from its libyan intervention polyploid k t s. the u.s. secretary of state has acknowledged the arab revolution which the u.s. backed by the vocally and militarily led to rise in extremism on wednesday her clinton testified to congress about last year's deadly attack on the american consulate in libya says have been gossip she took responsibility for security failures that led to that talk in september but that she had not seen requests from north security before and here are said sen john kerry is now widely expected to win an easy confirmation from the senate to replace hillary clinton who is leaving her position but some analysts don't believe a new face will change u.s. foreign policy at home or the clinton legacy is pretty much i think the legacy of american wars and a counterterrorism policy that has usurped the usual prerogatives of the state
2:09 am
department what hillary clinton did which was more important than anything else during her four years as secretary of state was to be part of the coalition of the félix if you will of pro-war people which really left president obama no choice but to go along with the forty thousand troops that the military was demanding that crystal is demanding for afghanistan john kerry will not be able to fundamentally change the course of u.s. foreign policy which is again set in motion set in stone if you will because of the power that the cia and the military really wield over the direction of u.s. relations with so much of the of the world particularly the middle east and now increasingly in africa as well that there is very little chance that john kerry will challenge any of the fundamental directions of u.s.
2:10 am
policy such as for example the drone war in pakistan. this week the world's financial and political elite are wrapped up their annual jointly in the swiss resort of davos optimistically predicting europe will walk out of quizes this year but as she skated pill the report the rich and powerful who gathered at the world economic forum offered lots of promises but no clear strategy. double's twenty thirty is now the world's most influential policymakers pack up their design a suit and head home at least me hair admiring the beauty of the swiss as you can see but also trying to look beyond them to work out what exactly was achieved well first we had russian prime minister dmitri medvedev he spoke about the need to diversify the economy away from oil and crack on with structural reforms but you know we've heard that before that was nothing particularly new we also had british leader david cameron he came here he had some tough words to say for tax avoiders
2:11 am
but really the very topic people wanted to press him on here was the fact that he will be calling an e.u. referendum for the british public in twenty seven table the business community here they felt that that was a gram of cheer an announcement and that it would do the economy no good already challenged and in a fragile situation with dismal growth figures just released europe was of course in the spotlight as predicted we had european central bank president mario draghi he said the spending cuts are necessary austerity is the way forward and german chancellor angela merkel she agreed with him she reiterated that and this really comes the same way that we've had process ongoing in greece we've had a backlash in germany as well as pains unemployment for the youth coming out at sixty percent we also have the prayers from the arab world they came together
2:12 am
valiant to improve the future for the people in the region but no clear strategy on on how to do that so you know i can tell you there's been a lot of talking a lot of pledging a lot of promising but no clear cut poll that says by have a real fairing that the interesting conversations happened behind closed doors. r.t. doubles. so david cameron's pledge to hold any referendum in the u.k. so. the u.k. prime minister said the british will have their say only europe if his conservative party wins the next election but as all she's andrew foreman reports then set in to britain's e.u. membership is being criticized at home and abroad. british prime minister david cameron has threatened to redraw the map of europe his pledge to hold a referendum on whether the u.k. should remain in the e.u. if they can win the next election in twenty fifty basically he wants more pounds
2:13 am
return from brussels to westminster and will try to renegotiate britain's terms of membership but he is born that he is not successful then the u.k. would probably vote to head towards the exit i was his long awaited european speech and died at the place many of those euro skeptics within his tory party there are many doubts his u.k. business leaders for example say that even talking about an exit at this stage will create uncertainty and could scare away potential investors germany's chancellor angela merkel has said that perhaps a compromise is needed but other e.u. members are less sympathetic than mark says the e.u. is not a self-service where members can cherry pick the legislation that happens squeaking said the e.u. would simply become a mess so while david cameron appears to solve any internal squabbles within his own party cheekily appeasing those euro skeptics it also appears that he's driving a wedge between britain and other e.u. member states andrew farmer. the prime minister for the
2:14 am
third time benyamin netanyahu his right wing blog wins the general election but he faces a battle to form a coalition to back his plans to terkel what his says the reigning nuclear threat more that we know. and the pride of privacy the f.b.i. refuses to reveal how or how many americans it's spying on causing distrust and paranoia that's coming up after a short break. more
2:15 am
2:16 am
window israel's general election this week but has suffered a major setback the two main blocks were left close to deadlock in the new parliament meaning netanyahu has a struggle to build a stable government a columnist for israel's ha'aretz newspaper gideon levy says netanyahu will put iran's nuclear program at the top of the international agenda is not likely to have enough support. italy are always very devoted to this issue and he believes almost in a religious way that he's here to say the state of israel in the jewish people from the danger of iranian born. but he will have. more difficult this time because at least on this topic he will find fewer partners who would support it because i think that this kind of adventure with the old minister of defense old barak who supported the then we'll look most probably in the coming government will
2:17 am
tell you oh we five you serve more as relate to barack obama second. no doubt that he will not let this happen but you know it does not react all raising very racial terms so all i want excluded because that they are always so devoted about it so jewish settlements in the west bank is another major issue for netanyahu has said they won't be dismantled during his said time and to accept and direct i mean not come are known for his prime treaty is decided to take on an orthodox look at the land expansion. my name is name more than israeli citizen living here among. you one housing prices of it all time high the thing is there is another one in jerusalem but i can also live among ourselves and i think i can get that much better deal with the wise over the.

2:19 am
roots. so it's all jewish yeah yeah any known jewish parts because. not. many people say he is not being constructive in the peace process but look how many settlements it constructed on helping. to build a new settlement. this is the future of israel i believe and i'm afraid that if i buy the house and i get a document saying it's mine some day palestinians can scum and say no it's not yours because i keep listening to that in the. you see. there's a chance we're going to there's just one thing and. it's funny how those small actions had like international meaning. the moving of stones like monumentally. it's like messing with the international law.
2:20 am
this is the most disputed area you name it notice it just because people told us. but he says it is like a good place to build a new flat you think they'll build in this area because my friends want to be like to buy something before we even construct and i was coming up and. he says this is the fail stone being set for the new god willing a few one facing the holy capital of his i pay so much money for rent in london anyone in london and here. and in the big city think it's cheaper and more comfortable it all starts here so beautiful all of us is ours. you can look down and palestinians this is the new area being built up as if you want i just call this real estate it's called hideout three they send all the flats in this part of

2:22 am
so the film's director named rod cameron says buying in disputed west bank areas can be a good and potentially very profitable. nobody really go. get the mindset of the religious ones and that not only just want to just come there for the deal and i mean they don't even think about politics for them it's just buying and selling and like they told me that if someone is going to a victim which they don't believe but if people are going to happen they're going to even make more money because the government will pay them compensations will be bitter if you buy local with a discount you got many kids even more discos you don't even have to be religious easily states like actually de facto build another well first which is the settler jewish only west bank cities and if you just go there and you buy
2:23 am
a flat you can sell it to like a jewish americans some of the people i talked to never going to. give up their house for not been heavily. into the settlement of the entire west bank and told me that jordan is also the kind of part of the jewish state just unlike the other ones are just like normally just people who used to live in that you know these early election is all about social justice kind of the whole. the whole like housing prices so pretty much if you want to live chip in israel that's the only option. americans are literally being kept in the dark about how and why they're being followed by the nation security agency a civil liberty group who asked the f.b.i. to spell out what techniques it's using what attracts citizens that justice department did reply but sending hundreds of completely blacked out documents that
2:24 am
twenty four seven needs to sell says the secret history surveillance gives law enforcement. the fact is there's enormous power the government now has to surveil the population unfortunately when they black out the middle east that we don't know what the policies are the supreme court has revised the rules for surveillance we have to trust them we have to take their word for that they let their body by the supreme court's decisions so we don't know what policies the f.b.i. has allocated itself we don't we don't know how they're lying there there's a realistic gates open free society the f.b.i. has to tell us what its procedures and techniques are so we have we can argue about them and then we have the opportunity to challenge them meant that maybe the courts say sure they're ok but that's only after the challenged in court that are discussed openly if all we have to go on is the trust us that doesn't give us very much are we actually don't trust them and whether on top or now and in terms of his came don't come none for he's now beyond file sharing service says he's at the

. many in the black community have long memories and today have a clear distrust for government run health agencies part of what drives each of you know community to his or his torkel perspective disenfranchisement tuskegee is very very much aware of the knife in our communities we still have many communities our we're talking about and this is a conspiracy the government wanted to kill soft so maybe we still have people who stood over that mindset people don't like to say. that the government will. i'd make an effort to destroy people but black people have had a history. of tusky syphilis experience that was carried on by the federal
2:29 am
government for thirty years one thousand nine hundred to one thousand nine hundred seventy two and people said at that time this is a way to get rid of the black population so that's horrible to have to think about . and that kind of planning but we have an entire museum in washington d.c. called the holocaust memorial museum which augmenting is the most important museum in the united states that everybody should go to that museum because it's not just about the death. six million people. it's about a government of intelligent people deciding to get rid of a population. they thought was a country famine and. you see adolf hitler use.
