from there we go the life and conduct of the prophet muhammad. here he is very unique because unlike jesus, more like i guess, you know, the hindu dellmy gods he was a fighter and and a religious leader at the same time. so here, you know, that leads to a certain construction in the minds of westerners that he was so much more belligerent and warlike than jesus or the buddha. but if we with examine his life, a lot of scholars have pointed out a number of very salient contexts. number one, for 30 long years -- i was quite a young man. now i'm middle-aged. it's quite a long span of time. a decade and a half almost. thirty years ago he was in mecca, and, you know, there were humiliations and atrocities inflicted upon him and his followers, and for that entire span of time he refused to fight back. and the wonderful quotations from that time period where, you know, he sort of asking god to sort of, you know, to give him strength and to forgive his tormenters. for 13 long years he was in mecca which is why the mecca verses are so much more devoutly pe

muhammad to the bench is fed up with the baseless attacks. governor chris christie. >> ignorance is behind the criticism of soheil muhammad. soheil muhammad is an extraordinary american. sharia law has nothing to do with this at all. it's crazy. it's crazy. the guy's an american citizen who has been an admitted lawyer to practice in the state of new jersey, swearing an oath to uphold the laws of new jersey, the constitution of the state of new jersey, and the constitution of the united states of america. this sharia law business is crap. it's just crazy. and i'm tired of dealing with the crazies. >> it's not often that you will find chris christie getting a round of applause on this program. but when so many on the right are using fear tactics to improve their poll numbers, governor christie has stood up for what is right. [ man ] this is my robot butler. say i'm missing england. i type in e-n-g... and he gives me a variety of options. would you like to have a look at a map, my lad? ah, why not? shall we check on the status of your knighthood

to ask them about this at the time of the gulag muhammad story first broke first tried to claim to me that exact make that exact same claim that he was covered by kuwaiti law and that they won't necessarily have to have a lawyer when they're interrogating him but that's just not the case that just seems like a crock if you ask me now the f.b.i. didn't exactly admit they didn't say yes we ask other countries to do this for us to detain american citizens so that we can kind of stand by and interrogate them two or. please just watch but what did they say to you exactly so they say. occasionally. information that they share with foreign governments results in in the detention of american citizens and i guess the way that they would explain that is well you know with it we would want the saudis to tell us if if they had a citizen of theirs coming over here. and they thought that person might be dangerous but it does come into the issue of you know how much coordination is there between the f.b.i. and these foreign intelligence services and you know are these people going to be abused and i

he says that one of the sons of gadhafi, muhammad gadhafi, has been hijacked or escaped.say to you? >> seems to me that the situation is still rather unsettled, and, again, there's two steps forward and one step back, and there's still a lot of work to dork not only militarily, but there will be a great task ahead as building a democracy in a country that's never known it and it's going to rare a lot of work and a little luck. >> some have suggested that the gadhafi loyalists, the mercenaries, the troops, the others, they may just take off their uniforms and blend in and start some sort of insurgency along the lineof what we saw in baghdad after 2003. should we be worried about that? >> i think we should be worried about a lot of things, but the fact is, wolf, you saw the rapid collapse of the gadhafi forces. the only thing that was holding him in power was money and fear, and once those are dissipated by military strength, it's very difficult for anyone to be loyal to gadhafi unless they are a blood relative, so i -- i worry about that. i worry about the different tribes

muhammad case is that he he claims that he was told that he can have access to his lawyer because he was he was under kuwaiti law and he did not that right under the law but really matter abroad f.b.i. agents abroad are still bound by the constitution and the interesting thing is in fact when i called up the f.b.i. and i asked them about this at the time when they grew up on the story first broke up first tried to claim to me that exact make that exact same claim that he was covered by. they won't necessarily have to have a lawyer when they're interrogating him but that's just not the case that just seems like a crock if you ask me now the f.b.i. didn't exactly say yes we ask other countries to do this for us to detain american citizens so that we can kind of stand by tearing it into or at least just watch but what did they say to you exactly so they said. ok sure only. information that they share with foreign governments results in the detention of american citizens and i guess the way that they would explain that is well you know if we would want the saudis to tell us if if they ha

it wasn't just a daughter, but another son muhammad and unid, i think it was? sorry. >> yeah, hannibal and his daughter fled. i think they believe they're south of the country and drove west of the border to algeria. algeria is the only country around here that still recognizes gadhafi as a legitimate ruler here and they say they've taken the family in on humanitarian grounds, but already the national council here says we want them back, we want to put them on trial on unspecified charges so far, and if algeria doesn't send them back, they'll be in an act of regression against the libyan people. they've really drawn a line in the sand here. you get the impression they don't want muammar gadhafi getting found. >> the sons, we've seen the son who is khamis who has allegedly been killed, have a very active role in the militia, in the government. are these sort of the playboy sons? i know there were a bunch who used to give a lot of money to american entertainers to perform in st. bart's and clubs, were they just doing business and traveling around the world? were

as muhammad said, businesses took that lesson and so did consumers.rybody is holding on to their money. what do you tell people? >> the companies that are going to weather this most recent part of the storm are the ones with a lot of money. they have a lot of money in the bank because they're not confident yet. how do you buy confidence to allow people to get out there and spend a little of the saved money. the only coherent policy prescription we have seen is the fed. and now we know that is going to last until the year 2013. >> can you imagine the fed, ben bernanke, telling us when -- the expiration date. you had to watch it in the market later. is the fed, the only one with a coherent plan here. is it good enough or do the markets and you and others want to see more of the fed? >> it was unthinkable that the fed would commit to a date and a level. it is one of the many unthinkables. will it be enough? no. there is two issues here. one is there is a difference between willingness and effectiveness. the fed is willing to do a lot. it is the home game

in the corner of the room, muhammad and his wife sit in silence. between them, we notice a small pile of cloth. it turns out it is covering the body of their son. his name was ali, he was just 1 year old. >> it was so difficult to get out, it took them so long to get out that by the time they arrived, there was nothing anyone could do for him. he died about two hours ago. >> reporter: this child has just died? >> yeah. >> reporter: what will they do with him now? >> they don't even have enough money to bury him. so they're just sitting here hoping someone will come and someone, you know, in this situation, nobody has any money, they're hoping that together people try and put money in together when things like this happen and they can raise the funds, otherwise, they have no means of burying him. >> reporter: muhammad and his wife have lost their two other children. ali was the only child they had left. what will they do now? >> they said they don't know. they're just going to them -- for them, the most important thing is to try to find a way to bur

. >> reporter: it is an unforgiving place, the baron land where 70-year-old halima hussein muhammad built this hut herself. every night she worries about her seven grandkids. every morning she sees footprints. you're worried about hyenas, lions. last night, they heard a thief approaching their food supply. i chased him off with a stick, he tells me. it is life on the fringe. this is the outer most edge of one of the camps and out that way, 60 miles of nothingness, all the way to the somalia border. the u.n. is struggling to move refugees out of this area to safer settlements, giving out firewood so women and children won't have to roam the desert. these little girls tell me they're happy they don't have chores like that any more. they come from a part of somalia controlled by the militant islamic group al shabab. he says men with guns threatened to kill him if he tried to leave for kenya, so they fled in the middle of the night. the first thing they did was they looted our property and stole our animals and took our farms, he says. inside somalia, only a small trickle of aid is allowed in

guest: that is muhammad ali jinnah, the founder of pakistan. i describe him in one place in the book as pakistan's washington, jefferson and kennedy all thrown into one. he remains the leading political historic figure of pakistan and he obviously lived in india because pakistan used to be part of india, and was a lawyer and political activist and he championed the notion of creating a muslim homeland. he's the father of pakistan. unfortunately, he died less than a year after pakistan's creation and ever since then, pakistan has had a lot of difficulty with its political leaders and many feel he died too soon. if he lived a bit longer, perhaps the foundations of pakistan's democracy might have been stronger. host: that was in 1947. what happened that created pakistan? guest: well, it was a mess. and it was a mess from which the country really has never recovered, in a way. this was during the time of british rule in the subcontinent of india and the decision was made very quickly and very arbitrarily by the british colonial rulers to separate,

. >> muhammad had just moved here from somalia and today was only his third day at that school. >>> the that's grabbing international headlines. it's all but over for gadhafi, but he's still missing. rebels have taken control of his fortified tripoli compound. the entire firefight captured on camera. so far he has evaded capture. hundreds of rebels beheaded a statue of gadhafi and raised their own flag. later, a pro gadhafi tv channel said he retreated in a tactical move after nato strikes turned the compound into rubble. it is now wednesday morning in libya. >>> in yosemite national mark, rangers are trying to identify the body of a man who fell. a spokesperson for the park says the body was discovered today after a group of climbers reported seeing someone fall down. rangers are holding some of his belongings. 15 people so far have met their death inside the national park just this year. >>> still to come, gone but never forgotten. tonight, the unusual memorial to remember victims of crime in the bay area. >>> tonight, we take you in depth and show you a controversial practice that so

to some of the most innovative development techniques, most notably the grameen bank created by muhammad yunus. this year he was dismissed in an apparently politically motivated dispute, but his work helped lift millions out of poverty and is just one of many imaginative projects in the country, helping people establish and grow small businesses. >>reporter: working conditions are harsh at these brick plants outside dhaka. but in some ways they are sign ofprogress, as well as the challenges that progress brings. >>it's the demand for new homes and shops, and the building of new roads and bridges that has fuelled the creation of around 5000 of these factories. the problem is that most of them have been built illegally right on top of fertile rice fields. >>hariri: you have to meet the demand of the population and at the same time you have to raise productivity ofthe land through r and d, through improved seeds. so i know there is pressure on the soil but thisis the situation there, and you just have to cope up with this increasing population pressure. >>reporter: the islamic development b

night of power," marking what they believe was the beginning of god's revelation of the qur'an to muhammad. the holiday comes near the end of ramadan. during ramadan, muslims fast from sunrise to sunset and then break their fast with a meal called the iftar. at one mosque in the washington d.c. suburb of falls church, virginia, several hundred people usually attend the nightly iftar, according to one of the imams. and this year they are welcoming even more, not all of whom are muslim. the dar al-hijrah mosque has announced a policy to allow in anyone who wants a meal. there are only two requirements: those who show up must be dressed appropriately and must be sober. imam johari abdul-malik is the outreach director at dar al-hijrah. he says he can't tell who comes to break the ramadan fast and who comes simply because of hunger. for him, it doesn't matter. >> the prophet mohammed said none of you are a believer if you go to bed with your stomach full and your neighbor's hungry. so your belief, all this praying, and all of your devotion is invalid if you can sleep at night knowing your neigh

muhammad was caught on the phone talking to al jazeera crying.s believed his other son was caught. where would qaddafi go? at first, it was thought to t e tunisia where his wife and daughter escaped to. more than likely, it would be algeria. algeria would be problematic. they have great relations there and algeria would export him to the world court. zimbabwe would be the most troublesome. that's where a couple of dictators called home and they would be one to ignore the cries it release qaddafi. >> he could head to italy, where the former prime minister went when he decided to defect. >> speaking of prime ministers, you'll see the exterior of 10 downing street where we're waiting for a statement by david cameron on the libyan situation. we should point out, of those many scenarios that brian just depicted, there are some reports out there that, perhaps, qaddafi was seen as part of a seven vehicle caravan headed towards algeria. all we know for sure is he did appear on state-run television yesterday pleading with his people, grab a gun, do whatev

between the economic devastation caused by and rest and political uncertainty muhammad's enterprise has been badly affected now he can barely afford to feed his children he says the wind of change may have brought freedom to egypt but it's brought as survivals tong in its wake. you know i love the revolution when it happened i welcomed it that looked at the time with a light at the end of the tunnel you see it's not getting better we have nothing to eat just don't tell me about democracy for hungry people it just doesn't matter. the plight of poverty fuel the revolution your growth has dropped from five to just one percent some thirteen million people live below the breadline unemployment has hit twelve percent. egypt's revolution was regarded as the most successful arab spring chapter it took eighteen days to end one of the world's longest dictatorships but five months on there is little satisfaction and dictator free egypt is far from the best place to live and the people. people know about mubarak as well much better than that there is. a bit of pollution and this in fact is a very s

muhammad russli, a 20-year-old student, was attacked, thugs rifling through his backpack as he bled. today, russli expressed sympathy for the robbers. >> i felt sorry for them. it was very sad because among them there were children. it was very sad. >> "they were children," he says. >>> and back here at home, the height of the summer harvest season. and our hidden camera report showed how some corporations have delivered the fruit to your supermarket and maybe to your table. abc news first showing pictures of very small children toiling in blueberry fields. not on family farms but for commercial growers in illegal hot and dangerous conditions. well, tonight, that story is back, with abc's chief investigation correspondent brian ross. >> reporter: it's an ugly secret in american agriculture. out of sight, far from the main roads, children as young as 5-year-old suli working in the country's fruit and vegetable fields. we found suli and her 7-year-old and 8-year-old brothers during an abc news investigation in the blueberry fields of large commercial farms in michigan. it's legal for y

. >> reporter: odetta muhammad is a single mom, a registered nurse, and a frustrated commuter. she drives 70 miles a day and spends $80 a week on gas. >> look at this! my god! >> reporter: do you think between the oil companies and the convenience stores that you're always getting best possible deal? >> no, of course not. don't-- don't quite understand the phenomenon when the gas prices and barrels of the prices of gas are going down the gas prices are still going up. sounds like a profit-type margin. >> reporter: often the price of crude oil and gasoline rise together, but gas usually lags behind crude as prices fall. the price of u.s.-produced crude oil has dropped 30% since may, but gas prices have fallen only 11%. compare that to 2008, when oil prices fell 77% and gasoline dropped 61%. >> as gas prices rise, as increases happen, stores are more apt to maybe absorb some of those price increases during a rise, and then as prices fall, they may be inclined to lag a little to make up for some of these losses. >> reporter: another important factor is the higher price of imported

including how to plant a bomb the defendant could now face the death penalty because the system that muhammad was murdered in a bomb attack outside his home in january last year scientists were killed shortly afterwards. israel says a leader from the palestinian islamic jihad group has been killed in gaza. an alleged weapons smuggler died in one of the three strikes also targeted to other militants accused of firing rockets at israel last week which caused at least seven civilian deaths it was the deadliest string of attacks against the israeli population in two years. a strong earthquake has the east coast of the united states tremors centered in virginia forty regulations in washington including the white house and pentagon in new york two nuclear reactors were shut down and people also had to leave buildings that say no one was seriously injured but damage to property was widespread. all right now back to our breaking news here on r.t. the unmanned russian cargo space ship progress has crashed in eastern siberia after failing to reach its target or but it launched from a baikonur cosmodrom

approach the tenth anniversary of september eleventh indian point nuclear power plant was targeted by muhammad out yet you have a very gentle target and you have got information from osama bin laden to attack those two reactors they should be shut down as a national security issue immediately and the reactors out last there on the missouri river but there in the state of nebraska the fort calhoun nuclear power plant and cooper cooper is the twin the fukushima daiichi and the flood levels are as bad as they have been since the beginning of june they're going to stay that way at least through the end of this month so they're on very thin ice out there they've got six feet of safety margin at fort calhoun incredibly cooper is still one hundred percent power so if they have to go from one hundred percent power to a cold shutdown they could face the same kind of catastrophe that happened if a casino daiichi they're taking tremendous risks by keeping that reactor operating it's like bart kevin thanks so much for me thanks for having me. this nuclear catastrophe is now entering its fifth month and st

during the uprising, muhammad al aqad's 18-year-old son, mustafa, was shot dead. "you deserve to be executed," he says to mubarak, "as you did too our son." as we saw in violent clashes today, mubarak still has strong supporters. >> they don't appreciate this guy. i'm with mubarak. pro-mubarak. >> reporter: pro-mubarak, ant anti-mubarak -- both sides can agree they never believed this day would come. alex marquardt, abc news, cairo. >>> and now, i want to bring in "this week" anchor christiane amanpour. because, in february, you'll remember she dodged chaos inhe streets in cairo and made her way to the heart of the presidential palace to interview mubarak, just before he was toppled. first of all, your reaction, as you see him in that cage. >> reporter: it is really quite alarming to see him there. nobody would have thought that he would be there. it's going to send shockwaves and signals all over the arab world as the uprisings continue, particularly to the leaders. >> and what about the reports of his illness? w severe are they and how credible are they? >> repo

rebel soldier muhammad was telling us why we should go no further. >> the militia from gadhafi from up in the building. >> reporter: we were not about to test his words. this route is not safe? >> yeah, it is not safe. >> reporter: all right, yeah, come on. we're as far as we can go inside the gadhafi compound. let's go this wawa please. those snipers hit this rebel in the neck. he died before our eyes. he lived to taste just one day of a free libya. there was real concern for the safety of 35 journalists and others being held by gadhafi loyalists at tripoli's rixos hotel. armed guards roamed the corridors. they were running out of food. they were released this afternoon. bbc's matthew price was one of them. >> they simply did not believe that the city could fall. they believed they were protecting us from the rebels. they said, if we go outside the hotel, the rebels are going to kill us, they're going to rape the women. and that's what they thought they were doing. they were going to let us out when tripoli was back in the hands of colonel gadhafi. >> reporter: today, any trace of gad

look at what his partner muhammad illyrian is saying elsewhere is like oh the ten year yield got a bit higher we cry actually buy bonds again so this is another thing people look at his move and start to freak out and say oh this means that if the government is going bankrupt isn't slow do you really need a lease and so it's an emergency i'll even but i don't think this is rising so how do you possibly think you even say right interest rates are going to be on the rise how do you possibly saying business numbers are high interest rates are going to be unbearable by the united states government so that's one issue but i want to jump in here let me go to. the gym just going yeah i think. so i seem to be between the other two panelists in a sense and number one we definitely have a long term fiscal situation which we need to address and at some point if we don't there could be a crisis certainly there's the risk that eventually could be ten years from now there could be a sharp increase in inflation and interest rates and fall in the bond market we want to avoid that we can do it it's not

really irrigation tunnels thousands of miles beneath aaa so that's almost eerie but the other thing muhammad real said to me is you know libya has more than a drop of oil we need a government we need education and i do think from a man on the street there is much more of an awareness of what libya could be than say in it and that is a man. very well said eliza thanks so much for being with us tonight thanks for having me we're now in a wait and see mode with regard to libya not just i'm going to work at garfield's but with the libyan people will do in his absence let's hope democracy wins that it . crazy alert pour in activism america's most notorious animal rights group peta may have just found the best new way to reach a wider audience they're starting their own porn site that's right the group whose ads have previously featured nude women posing in cages to protest wearing fur and women swallowing along vegetables to promote not eating meat is now going all the way and just doing straight porn in a conference call with the prosecutor confirmed that they are lindy looking into a register i
