it's not about abdul fatah al-sisi, it's the larger geo-strategic interests, and that has not changed >>> al jazeera journalists mohamed fadel fahmy and baher mohamed spend 407 days behind bars in egypt. they along with peter greste were accused of reporting false news and supporting muslim brotherhood, outlawed. peter greste was released earlier. al jazeera demands the release of mohamed fadel fahmy and baher mohamed, who are still imprisoned >>> dozens have been killed in two suicide bombings in the iraqi capital, hours before a curfew was listed. one attack targeted a restaurant in east of baghdad. 23 were killed. more injured. and 13 people were killed in another attack in a commercial area in the center of the city >>> while the lifting of the curfew means for the first time in years people can go out past midnight. jane arraf has more from baghdad. >> for the first time in 12 years baghdad residents don't need to rush home. >> the curfew first put in place by the u.s. military and kept in force by the iraqi government is history. a few months ago there was fear that baghdad coul

more on abdul fatah al-sisi's address to the nation. a senior lecturer in middle east politics and security studies. thank you for being with us on al jazeera. abdul fatah al-sisi obviously focussing on the egyptian attacks in libya. what do you make of what he had to say? >> it was interesting. in libya, he was saying that this was a self-defence act, it's an act but there'll be no invasion which i think means that what happened in the u.n. a few days ago is very significant. because the gearing up in the egyptian media was about a further intervention in libya, possibly a direct entrance on the civil war there. what will happen i think, is probably a situation of arming one side of the civil war, which is the army and government and specific strikes at some point or another. i don't think there'll be an intervention. >> certainly often in the western media there's a desire to see arab countries take the lead so we saw jordan attack i.s.i.l. in iraq and syria, now this attack by egypt on libya. you think abdul fatah al-sisi is not goin

know better sleep with sleep number. >>> back now with kareem abdul-jabbar abdul-jabbar. i was curious, during the whole ferguson protest, we saw athletes speaking out. i say this, growing up for me, athletes spoke out all the time in the '60s and '70s. you would be outspoken on cultural issues of the day. then it just sort of went away. in the '80s and '90s you saw the prominent athletes, the most famous line attributed to michael jordan, why he didn't want to get involved in politics republicans buy sneakers, too. it became part of a business. when you saw ferguson sparked protests again, what did you think? >> i thought the athletes that spoke out had a good point to make. one athlete i forget his name plays for the cleveland browns and he's a parent. he started thinking about what could happen to his son when he became a teenager and might do something a little bit out of line, would his son be shot down for no good reason. he was very concerned about that. it made absolute sense, this is something that would be in his future if he's not careful and if his son does no

we saw abdul fatah al-sisi defending the egyptian air strikes. why do you think he needed to defend the military action? >> the military action was not heralded as an achievement. we wanted egypt to pursue diplomatic channels. egypt needed to assert itself in a pact that it had in kuwait to the new military pact that they have come together to fight what they see as foreign forces coming into the libyan region. in doing so ultimately what abdul fatah al-sisi want to do is reassert himself and egypt as a global powerplayer, and make sure that the political situation in libya, who will be coming into power next is part and parcel of a military pact that benefits the interest. >> egypt has called for an international coalition to strike against libya, thwarted by the u.s. and the u.k. will he get the coalition of sorts from his arab allies and the rest of the gulf states? >> well, it seems that they have this based on informs and tapes released. and also on past two years of military excursions between the four countries, we see that egypt is forgin

the media, literally not only in tandem said that there needs to be an intervention, egging on abdulah al-sisi to take action. much of the media gravitates towards war metaphors. the framing of war helps us. >> we'll turn to the war against i.s.i.s. war gravitates or should gravitate towards an aspirational end. >> six months since the first i.s.i.l. video was posted it was violence. in the main stream media the anti-terror narrative was plied to a new battle. an enemy where propaganda was the strength. they can intimidate people. the media plays a role. i.s.i.l. was part of a place that's existed. small numbers. what they fought against was military force, international troops. they are immediately - they are not that strong. careful. >> one of the structural problems is too often it's framed as the west versus terrorists, where it is part of a huge internal battle within the arab, muslim world about political change, legitimacy, so on and so forth. you see some of that. albanians are good making it look like it's nothing to do with islam. these are people u.s. you wering sense of l

and then by abdul fatah al-sisi, the president of egypt in response to the killings. >> he is using theia to show that egypt is tough and will protect itself and face any change that comes its way. the media is central to the way that abdul fatah al-sisi tries to shape his perception among the public in egypt. >> he is making his case that the muslim brotherhood is practically indistinguishable from some other rad igal jihadist groups. it's a cores of you are with us or against us and the narrative of the war in terror. so you do not support the campaign that is a response to the beheading of citizens and you find yourself in opposition to the national security agenda. the media, literally not only in tandem said that there needs to be an intervention egging on abdul fatah al-sisi to take action. much of the media gravitates towards war metaphors. the framing of war helps us. >> we'll turn to the war against i.s.i.s. war gravitates or should gravitate towards an aspirational end. >> six months since the first i.s.i.l. video was posted it was gripped by the specter of violence. in the ma

they were anti-mohamed mursi, and show defiance against a new president abdul fatah al-sisi. defiant, they are disadvantaged. they are marginalized they are poor they feel that basically they are on the fringes of society, and their behaviour reflects a social gone as opposed to a politicized condition. politics is secondary. that's why the police should have known. the reason i'm a bit harsh on the police police know the ultra, time and again they defy the police. they want to stand up - police are seen as a force that terrorized the egyptian public and the ultras took it on their own to basically challenge the symbol authorities, and that's why there's more to the confrontation than this particular game. >> i take the point of course that this is a group made up of socially disenfranchised young people against whom is in government -- whomever is in government. in that though they suffer a wide selection of the population suffering from similar it disillusionment. what possibility does this event have of spilling out? >> this is serious, you are talking about mainstream egy

all the details from leaked conversations involving egypt's president abdul fatah al-sisi. >>> it's one of the toughest and coldest events in the world. we head to the yukon in canada where athletes are preparing for an ultra marathon >>> leaders, diplomats and security experts from around the world are in munich for the final day of a security summit. it's tehran's nuclear programme topping the agenda. iran's foreign minister and u.s. secretary of state held talks. the u.n. threatened new sanctions if a march 31st deadline is missed. sanctions are the problem it's been said. >> sanctions are a liability, you need to get rid of them if you want a solution and unless they come to the realisation that sanctions are a ribilityliability, we will not have a solution. that is the single most-important issue. we have good head way in resolving that >>> let's bring in zeina khodr. she has been there for us. there has been meetings with the secretary of state john kerry. what are we hearing about that? >> well neither side is revealing the details of the discussions. what we do know is that both

proposals have been sent to abdul fatah al-sisi for approval. he has attracted condemn nation with trials lasting as little as two days ending in death sentences for hundreds of people. an international human rights lawyer said the move was astonishing. >> the concept under international law for due process, and a defendant having the right to hear witnesses, and allow witness testimony from the prosecution and defense is sacra sanct, and encapsulates a lot of dock trips. if egypt goes forward, it will be - you know it strikes at the heart of everything that is legal and show kangaroo court hopping around the streets of cairo. i'm as stonished they take the steps. they are removing the window dressing. again, you know international human rights observers have been calling on abdul fatah al-sisi to you know restore due process for people brought within the judicial system of egypt. this is another line in the kangaroo court system that abdul fatah al-sisi created in eget >>> venezuela's opposition leader is asking people to join him and stop the

affiliated groups executed 21 coptic christians. >> abdul fatah al-sisi wants to secure his country's borders and wants revenge. >> it's significant na abdul fatah al-sisi chose to start his one-hour-long access by tackling the air strikes. he was talking to the egyptian people. it was a matter of "revenge", and i think he meant a matter of pride. he said he could not face paying condolences. and in germ the coptic griftian community without taking prior action. it's addressing the concerns of the international community. the egyptian army does not attack anyone first that the army was not an invader and it was their to defend egypt and its borders. the air strikes have been highly polarizing inside libya. the u.n. recognised government in tobruk welcomed them. the court appointed one in tripoli has condemned them. it all came at a time when it seemed to have some progress on the track. clearly the white house, u.n. within the arab league. many were concerned about the air strikes and the scope, for how long they would have lasted. it seems that president abdul fatah al-sisi was tryin

a television station in turkey is broadcasting a leaked conversation involving egyptian president abdul fatah al-sisi. reportedly it took place after the coup that removed former president mohamed mursi from power. abdul fatah al-sisi is heard telling the head of his office to ask other states for money, and made remarks in relation to the qatari royal family and gulf countries referred to as half states. states. . >> tell them we need 10 into the act. what did i say. >> 10. i need another 10 were united emirates and from kuwait. a small portion. [ laughs ] why are you laughing? their money is like ice. the recording was obtained and brought out by a pro-muslim brotherhood station in turkey. the brotherhood was taken from power following the 2011 revolution. a military coup pushed them out and they've been labelled as a terrorist organization. we'll talk to a professor of political science at united arab emirates university and joins us now on the line from dubai. thank you very much for being with us. given that this tape was broadcast on a tv station, given that general abdul fatah al

>> just to let you know we are expecting a speech from egypt abdul fattah alsisi. we will take that spooech live on al jazeera. we will break away from what we are doing to here what the president has to say. fighters have claimed responsibility for an attack on the iranian ambassador's residence in tripoli. they targeted the building with homemade bombs more on hoda form until neighboring tunisia. what's the significance of this? >> reporter: the most significant part of this is really to create the sense of insecurity even in tripoli. now, we know that benghazi, there is lawlessness and it has been there awhile. tripoli has been more or less stable. so probably the main point is that bearing in mind that the residents of the ambassador had been an empty building since 2012 and that the bombs were not really very big. the detonation did cause minor damage but nothing significant. there were no casualties. i think it's come at a time when everybody is asking the question: how spread is isil and the affiliates around libya. have they infiltrated and are they in the

abdul fatah al-sisi will commit to this promise or not. we had a situation of impunity. we have a bad human rights sways, we have more than 44,000 people behind bars with no due process. so what we want what egyptian people want is a return to a democratic process, a political process, where dissent is accepted and embedded in political life. >> abdul fatah al-sisi - when people criticized sentences, with the al jazeera case, when world leaders came out against the sentencing of an al jazeera journalist, he said "i can't intervene in the judicial process you have to let it take its course", is that fair comment, is it the judicial system or does he intervene to affect how these cases go? >> it's obvious that the judicial system in egypt is manipulated by the political regime, and it's obvious that the judicial system is not abiding to international standard and practices, and not respectful of due process. we saw before many cases where judges took severe sentences against activists - let us say supporters of mohamed mursi. with total disrespect of due process and human

it is not a crime anywhere not even in egypt. >> in fact president abdul fatah al-sisi has said that this has been a black eye. >> and he said had he been in office when the men were arrested he would have not gone so far as to prosecute. and we have to hope that that will be the case going forward as journalism is practised in egypt. >> let's hope they are all freed. good to have you with us. >>> coming up two major snow storms in a week. round 3 could be headed to new england soon. rebecca stevenson is in next with a look. also health officials warn the measles outbreak could keep growing, sparking a debate over who should be vaccinated. only on al jazeera america >> the new al jazeera america primetime. get the real news you've been looking for. >> now everybody in this country can hear them. >> at 7:00, a thorough of the day's events. >> at the end of the day, we're going to give you an intelligent, context driven, take on the day's news. >> then at 8:00, john seigenthaler digs deeper into the stories of the day. >> this is a complicated situation. how significant is it? >> and a
