people out there just doing something you know i don't even care what you believe i want you on the streets telling people about it in getting things done so i think this type of event is going to just help to get more people active in the system and i have a feeling that more people active in the system would only be better for the people do you feel anonymous might actually alienate people because you talked about the protests there which is fair enough but also they do hack websites and people could legitimately say well actually it's not a criminal offense to be want to be part of this there's a distinction there you call it criminal you know what's right and what's wrong is not exactly in line with what's legal and what's illegal and so it's really up to each individual to decide just how far they're willing to go with their protests. and get updates on the protests any time at r.t. dot com where we are gathering images from rallies that have been taking place. and some marches have already been held down under and in southeast asia check out how

a former follower social research expert johannesburg believes populist appeal is feeding the ranks of the far right. all of these parties are anti immigrant there and our immigration they do express their the strongest sort of anti immigrant views in europe and so that's why these days might have a certain influence as they have had like in denmark for instance and so resistance against immigration is one thing the other is a sort of and tightly to sentiment among voters in europe so people who wish to express a protest or an anti elitist sentiment tend to support these parties they could have a major influence certainly in terms of immigration policy and in terms of the way that europe it's viewed around the world the country that became one of the most i've spoken critiques of washington's global snooping at is to being caught and personal blushing after admitting it's been spying on diplomatic premises on its

intervening from outside of libya so it wouldn't be surprised if the area would start looking east of southeast that are about two hundred forty tribes in libya and tribes are very important for the running of the territory is not just a sort of. reminded of like we can imagine from the western tribes there they count they control people in the territory it depends how much they bargain among themselves but it may also end up that they fight each other and this is very difficult to predict it depends also by which support from outside this new independent unit who would acquire. and the capitol is not immune to the trouble in new clashes are being reported in tripoli it's the latest outbreak of violence in the city which the central government has also been unable to fully control the prime minister was briefly kidnapped by

3:15 am
monday morsi and fourteen muslim brotherhood members are accused of encouraging a deadly crackdown on dissent in cairo last december this footage is from the opening of the hearings the first video of the deposed leader since his arrest four months ago he refused to wear the mandatory white uniform for defendant and rejected the court's authority insisting he's still in the legitimate leader the judge them perspire own the trial until january the eighth or since behavior could see him barred from further sessions meanwhile during his transfer to prison police had to face angry prime morsy mobs in the capital and other cities but no one from the military has yet been brought to book over last year's violence something many egyptians activists find astonishing. it is very evident that they have no they're not ready to pursue this because they don't have enough evidence in fact
3:16 am
they had any evidence the current and the previous ministers of interior and should be implicated as well they were all part of the ministry of interior when the incidents happened in december two thousand and twelve so it is a technique to put pressure to get a better negotiation stance against the muslim brotherhood currently dean wants more concessions and wants the muslim brothers to give in to the situation as a status quo accepted and that is just a pressure. well egypt's islamised themselves have been divided over morsi is leadership but even those who wanted him in the summer accused the trial of being politicized also believes all sides have to recognize the urgent need for a political solution morsi truly believes that he still is the president and hanging on to the issue of legitimacy gives him a power position and that by not accepting this current trial he's more or

less becoming another mandela on facebook today many of his supporters describe him as the new mandela for africa which of course is is neither true nor is it. realistic. both parties them the current regime supported by the military and the muslim brotherhood have not realized that the only way out of this predicament is a political solution let's go back to one of our top stories in the extreme right parties gaining momentum ahead of next year is european parliament election we cannot discuss this further with we caught her make professor of sociology at a university in sweden thanks very much for coming on to the program today now in your opinion what's fuelling do you think the popularity of these far right parties across europe at the moment. there's a combination of a lot of things we have the demand side of people or. skeptic towards the european
3:18 am
union the eurozone crisis but we also have the supply side of these parties provide something that this stablish parties do not provide today people are sometimes feel discontent that the ideological space between the stablished party says shrinking and if you feel like you don't want to vote for the incumbent party and then you feel that you don't have any other part of the vote for then you kind of tend to go to these populist parties that's on that and also be these parties have been there today a lot better organized today than there were ten fifteen years ago so there's a combination of a lot of factors that affect us this year we saw rioting in predominantly immigrant areas of stock do you think that shaped public opinion or reshape public opinion in any way in sweden. if you mean public opinion towards immigrants or yes i'm sure in general the immigration policy gee are people not believing that something should be done. not that we know.
3:19 am
that it probably did not affect people's attitudes towards immigrants henri or immigration and really i don't think. those riots had a lot of effect on those issues hopefully that it had the effect that we had to start to discuss issues of segregation in sweden and also not to countries in europe why do you think that is have much discussion why do you think that is because in other parts of europe we have seen it why do you think sweden is perhaps immune from it. i don't think we're immune in sweden i think. we kind of woke up this situation is very new and the riots that happened in the suburbs this. is a new happening in sweden and i think people were we weren't prepared for it. but it's still not generally now because if i think parties do you secure a meaningful number of seats in next year's election how do you think that could
3:20 am
change the you. in the long run i think it would be detrimental because in the long run we think to double the fact people's attitudes towards immigration towards immigrants. things like that and i think that and also not only people's attitudes first possible these there will be shane and regulations concerning immigration and immigrants try to move see a much more much more tougher immigration policies and a lot of congress and european union i mean i think that's really problematic for the future but one of the most vocal people in this is the leader of the french national front rina pen and she says that she wants to establish a pan europe a nationalist movement do you think that's a contradiction uniting against what already is politically a united europe. of course it is i mean if you're going to the united europe and then you want to unite across european borders that's that's
3:21 am
a contradiction in terms but only underhand i mean if you look at from her perspective that's probably the only way to try to fact. this credibility of. the european union is to do it from the inside it's kind of make it kind of makes sense from their perspective but it's still it's a contradiction in terms of course. ok thank you thanks for your opinions on that we have run out of time that is a professor of sociology at university in sweden thank you. if we look now at some other international news a gun man has opened fire at a shopping mall in the u.s. state of new jersey just before it was about to close there are no reports though of anyone being injured and the building was quickly evacuated police officers are now searching for the man who is believed to have since left the mile wearing body armor but local mayor says one shot has been confirmed but witnesses say the gunman fired repeatedly security cameras. iraqi police have been
3:22 am
attacked by two suicide bombers who tried to break into a police station in the north they recognized the attackers and opened fire forcing the bombers to blow themselves up outside the building but at least two people were killed and seven others wounded that's on top of other bombings that killed ten people in the country on monday or ak is seeing its worst violence in years with almost a thousand people killed in october alone. people in crimea have come out against ukraine's looming trade deal with the european union to eight hundred turned out in the autonomy republic in a protest which coincided with russia's unity day demonstrators burned flags in call for closer ties with moscow despite make support ukraine's pushing ahead with the partnership deal which could be signed at the end of this man. has plenty of independent spirit in the united states two parts of colorado will
3:23 am
vote on tuesday on whether to break away from the rest of the state rena portnoy has been to find out why. in a state of five point one million people democracy is failing the minority and a battle to break away has begun or trying to address some of systemic issue within the country which is this rural versus urban divide eleven colorado counties approximately four hundred thousand citizens are voting on a ballot initiative that would pave the way for completing the fifty first us state the urban areas can assert their well against the rural communities and it is like taxation not representation and that the rural communities don't have a voice to block the things that are being forced upon them earlier this year colorado's democratically controlled legislature exerted its power by passing laws fiercely unpopular in the northeastern parts of the state among them. historic gun control laws and mandating only rural areas to produce twenty percent
3:24 am
of their energy from renewable sources a move officials say will crush farmers and ranchers while also raising the cost of electricity urban legislators imposed one standard on rural colorado and exempted themselves out of that same standard for their urban constituents one might call that tyranny in my thirteen years plus of being a county commissioner i have never seen folks this frustrated this discontent this feeling of this disenfranchised in addition to sending a message to lawmakers here in denver supporters of the fifty first state say their ballot initiative also serves as inspiration for the many other u.s. cities and states with their own secession movements i get fold calls on a regular basis. at least once a week from citizens in other states saying hey what are you guys doing out there
3:25 am
how you doing this from vermont and north carolina to texas and california the u.s. has seen a rapid spy. movements blazing across the nation in the past decade as the united states has grown extremely divided i hope that there's a recognition that a disconnect exists not just here in colorado but in other states and that we need to begin to address that problem the problem of america's partisan politics extends all the way up to the top last month's dysfunctional stalemate in washington caused a sixteen day government shutdown the next step beyond this is going to be more than likely a twenty four statewide ballot initiative which everybody in the state would be able to vote about point which would redraw the boundaries of the state of colorado however this coveted swing state can only be torn in two with the approval of u.s. congress a powerful legislative body known best for its own failure at reaching compromise.

internet so basically the near future any person with even half a brain and some patients could start making guns in their basement which means the gun control laws will basically become pointless because there. able to catch all the people doing it no one will be able to take the guns not even obama or the hardest of hardcore liberals this technology could be the best thing to happen to the second amendment ever fascist my opinion. is in east siberia people are drawn to it by its beauty energy and its benevolent spirits.
