decenting into violence, abdul fatah al-sisi was given more powers. he holds the higher post of field marshal, given to him by his own appointee, interim president adly mansour. abdul fatah al-sisi says he's running for president as it's the will of the people. egypt is run by a society those that want them to return to the mohamed morsi's rule, and those that think stability under a military ruler should be a priority over democracy. >> the egyptian government hasn't set a date for elections. the egyptian sighted a paper by the president saying the polling will end by mid july. >> why a growing number of female veterans are finding themselves homeless. >> and federal labour officials threatening to unionize, how that could affect college sports. >> the college athletes players' association led by former north western quarterback cain colter won a decision by the national labour relations board which qualifies football players as employees, opening the way for them to unionize. returning to the players that argue that college football relies on labour

let's bring in kareem abdul-jabb abdul-jabbar. the show. >> nice to be here. >> let's talk about your new business. why did you pick amazon over other sites like ebay? >> i got started because doing a lot of the shows i always saw instances where there were a lot of counterfeit things being sold. i mean, if michael jordan had signed as many signatures as i've seen, he had to be about 30 or 40 of him to sign that many signatures. just so many counterfeit things out there. and there was a niche there that i saw for authentic items that fans that want to buy really good and interesting memorabilia, they want to sink their teeth into it. that's why we started starguard. it's starguardcollectibles.com. you can go there and find all kinds of things from every sport imaginable that would pique your interest and are worthy of being collected. >> how do you guarantee these are actual collectibles from those players and not authenticated? i'm sure other memorabilia sites and stores say they're authentic? >> we film everybody. so, we film pe

then we see the army nominates him and holds a meeting showing abdul fatah al-sisi. it shows a lock of experience, and it's a disaster. the military council reiterated the same thing. i took myself oust of the loop because the election will be a farce. whether other candidates withdraw depends on the nomination of abdul fatah al-sisi. if he runs, i will not run. i will get my papers ready. if he is going to run, i will not submit them. they'll fix the ballot bombs, everything for them. this will be a comedy show. if someone didn't run, it doesn't mean he likes him, it means the election process will not be fair. >> let's look at who he is. he was a powerful player in the military and other circles for 40 years. he was a fighter pilot in the 1960s. and rose to become commander in 1996. he was a member of civil aviation by hosni mubarak. he was made prime minister, but resigned a month later. he lost out in the 2012 elections. he left after arrest warrants were issued for him. staying with egypt and three al jazeera journalists have been held in prison. mohamed fadel f

if abdul fatah al-sisi runs for president, are we back to politics as usual in egypt, is abdul fatah al-sisi a new version of hosni mubarak. >> no, he's a different person. i don't think egypt will be the same ever again after 20 is -- 2011. when mohamed morsi won, they turned the power over to mohamed morsi, and didn't fight him on that. what happened was the mohamed morsi government did not implement good policies, and alienated a large section of the population and the military responded to that. >> the trial, 429 people sentenced to death for the death of one policeman. how can anyone accept that as justice, when the hearings took two hours. >> two days. any of us in the west don't fully support the type of justice system that occurred. we would not have a trial with 529 people, of whom 400 were not there. that would never happen in the west. the reason the death sentences were handed down is if you are tried and not there and found guilty, the maximum sentence has to be imposed. i don't believe anybody, or few believe that the executions will take place. there's a long system th
