that made the aspirations of the protesters in the region the only story worth exploring the muslim brotherhood who were perhaps the most well organized political force won the election. the rule that lasted barely one year was not what people had hoped for. corruption continued authoritarianism continued one of the reasons that people stopped following i just you know in egypt for example is because a lot of them felt that if this is the voice of a political formation that has failed and that has now been displaced from power then that news outlet is no longer an important source of news. by 2013 the morsi government had been deposed and if the authorities then tried to take al-jazeera and egyptian journalists down with. the new government was led by military man turned president abdel fattah el-sisi. 3 al-jazeera employees were among the dozens of media workers arrested on c.c.s. watch the court case was a show trial the government's evidence against al jazeera was feeble but reputations suffered all around. that same year on august 21st the assad government showed its citizens and the world

and also the arab states recognized that if you look around and say who will stand up to the muslim brotherhoodere's the united states and there's israel which also has significant military capabilities. which one of these cannot get away from the middle east? it's the israel. this is the an important relationship that had been developing covertly, but it was time to bring it out in the open. and also with the next administration for the arabs and israelis to, excuse the phrase, sing from the same hymnal when they talk to the next president about what kind of moves he should and should not make. whether he'll listen or not, we don't know. president obama certainly did not. paul: right. now, the peace plan, the trump peace plan did give a handout to the palestinians. they could have gotten into this had that they wanted to. was their denial -- did that make it easier for the other arabs to say, you know what? you missed another opportunity? >> yes, absolutely. it's often not recognized. two important points. one the palestinian authority went to the arab league and said will you denounce the abr

in egypt the muslim brotherhood government would not compromise. could govern the way they want. that's not how it works in a constitutional democracy, you have to compromise and they were displaced by the army. worst of all in syria after the civil war created a tremendous security vacuum we saw the rise of the islamic state which is islam in its most extreme and horrifying form and that turned into a murderous and horrifying kind of death cult which had to be defeated ultimately by force. >> when you look at egypt what conclusion do you draw about the people power? it was people power that drove mubarak out. everyone said this means they want democracy, they don't want radical islam or militancy. and then they came out the same people apparently, came out and drove the elected islamic government out, the elected muslim brotherhood government out in favor of a dictatorship that is in some ways more extreme than mubarak's. >> the first takeaway for me is people power is not limited to people of one country or one religion or one culture. the hard p

>> to be honest, the young muslim brotherhood guys are always around. come to talk to you for hours, but they have never condone violence. they're good people. i respect them. but i just feel like telling them, hey, mage, religion is between me and myself, no one else's business. >> between september 2019 and march 2020, 935 reports of nonsecular behavior were filed according to the ministry of education. 12.5 million schoolchildren in france. a stable figure says a specialized committee set up to advise the government, the group is sounding the alarm over a lack of training for teachers, and others say the success of government bears a strong responsibility for the current situation. >> the response should have been to teach the political history that led to these children being here. our colonial past is not taught properly. it is part of the country's history. where do we think religion is all that is left, and i would say that by choosing not to teach political history, the state has literally pushed people towards religion. the only way they can sh

demanded guitar sever all talks with what the quartet calls terrorist organizations including the muslim brotherhood ties qatar has denied also on the list was al jazeera and the requirement that guitar shut the network and its journalism down those who follow both politics know that. was the main focus of all these countries they moved from targeting al-jazeera directly into targeting washington d.c. trying to convince congress to shut down and just get out to constrain their movement in washington and the us just survive and it will survive for a very simple reason there is no foreign official. who respects freedom of speech will go to qatar doha and tell them please close and just to end this rift there are a lot on the saudi site and sky arabia on the u.a.e. side and then there is a whole bunch of different. smaller networks but the flagships are a lot of and sky arabia and neither has had the experience the quality the money the resources. staffing that. on the other hand as i say its reputation. of being above the fray has changed so now i think what a lot of people do is they watch and they w

the italian government bringing this to the fore but what about all the rest of the people of muslim brotherhood really who've been arrested people on his of telfair over the years and the opposition groups have been cracked down on why don't those stories get told you why this will. you know since 2015 there have been almost 3000 cases in egypt a force in forced disappearances the have led to torture there are over 60000 political prisoners yes what is happening in the prison systems in egypt and throughout the country remains on unknown because egypt has done several things it's denied the entry of human rights workers like human rights watch and amnesty international it just imprisoned and released because of international pressure members of a human rights organization and so this is indicating if the egyptian government can law on what's happened to an italian graduate student from cambridge university then imagine what happens the every jay-jay action the international community has to remain silent on what's happening even for strategic reasons for example the italian government even thou
