ivan watson watching all of this unfold. ivan, the pictures are so dramatic.e protests in a moment. but what's the very latest on hosni mubarak's condition? >> well, there are conflicting reports about whether or not he's been moved to a military hospital. his lawyer says he has. the prosecutors office and the ruling military council here denies that. basically the prosecutor's office first told us that he'd had some kind of a heart attack and he'd been resuscitated with cpr and electric shocks and was being examined and was now on an artificial respirator. but i think you'll find a lot of egyptians are going to be very skeptical about this and suspicious that the authorities are crying wolf because there have been so many false alarms about mubarak's health and about health emergencies since he was first brought up on charges of murder, basically, of killing protesters in this very square a year ago. many egyptians probably suspicious that this may be yet another gam bet to get him to escape his life prison sentence after he was convicted of being an accompli

>> ivan watson in cairo. thank you for that report. let's get right to daniel kurtzer, the former u.s. ambassador to egypt. when we hear reports and reporters saying that the gathering in the square is not because of mubarak and there is still conflicting information on whether he is dead or clinically dead or not dead. because of the movement as ivan reported by the military to minimize the power of the office of the presidency. are you seeing in some ways a repeat of last year? >> well, in some ways it's a culmination or a continuation of last year. i think mubarak's health is not a factor at all in the decision-making of the egyptian masses. but they are concerned, number one is the possibility that the election that they just went through may be stolen from them by fraud by either side, either the islamists or the military. and second, that the military may not respect the outcome of the elections and hold on to a certain amount of power, even after they are supposed to be a transition. >> if mubarak lives or dies or die imminently

>> ivan watson reporting for us. ivan, incredible live pictures of the voting taking place. thank you so much. >>> and more now on the critical election that is happening in greece. voters are picking a new parliament against a backdrop of economic despair. the economy there has been in collapse. it is so bad that parents have actually had to send their children to orphanages because they can no longer afford the feed them. some fear that the outcome of today's vote could cause chaos in the financial markets and shock the u.s. and other economies. cnn's richard quest joins us from athens. richard, this is a vote for a greek parliamentt, but it is a vote that has global implications. walk us through that. >> rightmentrightment. that is the parliament building behind me that you are talk aul about. that is today, they are electing the 300 members of parliament. to give you some idea, new democracy, their leader says that tomorrow a new era begins for greece. the far left wing party says that today we win over fear, and tomorrow we must have a government. what that tells me and

creative all right gentlemen cross talk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want ivan eland if i go to you first in washington what is the state of america's soft power today ok a lot of people think it was the u.s. to go real battering under the bush years and now we've had four years of obama what is this what is america's brand value. well i think america has a lot of brand value but i don't think it comes from. funding democratic forces in other countries i mean i don't think this through works very well since one thousand nine hundred we've tried to impose democracy using military power fifteen times and eleven times it's failed two times it's still out and four times it succeeded so it doesn't have a very success rate even when you force it on people so i think letting it bubble up from the bottom is better than funding democratic groups in elections and funding even things to bring about democracy i think people have to do it themselves in whatever country it is and i don't think we have the money for it here in the united states anymore to do these types of thi

ivan watson live tonight in istanbul.is could lead to further violence between syria and turkey? it seems serious, to shoot down a fighter jet. >> reporter: very serious. and these are two neighboring countries that have basically severed diplomatic relations between each other over the syrian crackdown on the revolution there. what's remarkable is that despite the fact they don't have ambassadors in each other's countries, they're working together right now to search for the two missing turkish air crewmen. despite the fact that the syrians have conceded their anti-aircraft shot down the turkish warplane when it was about less than 1 mile, they claim, off of the syrian shore in the eastern mediterranean. the turks have confirmed that the syrians shot down their warplane. they, too, are saying syrian vessels wi s wits are working w ships to search for the two missing turkish pilots. it looks like both sides, despite the deadly seriousness of this incident, are trying to play this down. and if you need any evidence, just l

ivan watson is in cairo want to. ivan, what a day it has been. what are your sources telling you? >> reporter: good evening, erin. again, these conflicting reports, where we have state media on the one hand saying that hosni mubarak is clinically dead, the 84-year-old president who ruled this country for nearly 30 years. and then we have the supreme council of the armed forces which took over after he was ousted a year-and-a-half ago saying he's not dead, in critical condition, suffered a heart attack and a stroke and has been choppered to a hospital from the prison where he has been held since he was convicted of being an accomplice to deaths of hundreds of protesters here in tahrir square and in other egyptian cities a year-and-a-half ago. >> and ivan, tahrir square obviously tonight people are still there, as both sides in the contested presidential election declared victory. how on the edge is the situation? >>. >> i don't think it's on the edge, but there's clearly a political power struggle under way. and there have been seismic political changes here in the last week. you j

ivan, that square was filled with a huge crowd, demonstrating because of political uncertainty. what are your sources telling you, how hard is it to break through? we had rumors before, what is fact and rumor? >> reporter: clear tough, especially because the debate over hosni mubarak's health has constantly been coming up in the course of thepast year and a half since he was ousted from power, similar protests in tahrir square, warnings that his health was deteriorating, and this as he was being brought on charges of corruption, as an accomplice to the deaths of hundreds of protesters in january and february of 2011. he was found guilty on most charges and acquitted on corruption charges. we have this middle east news agency report saying that he was clinically dead, denied by supreme council of armed forces which is arguing he is in critical condition now, but that his health is deteriorating, and that is overshadowing the political struggle under way of the seismic political changes we've seen. with historic presidential elections last weekend taking place, and at the same tim

ivan watson is joining us live from istanbul, and first of all, ivan, turkey now says that it's going to treat any future approach from ssyria's military as a threat. do we think these two countries are any closer now to confronting each other and potentially creating some sort of conflict? a war? >> reporter: well, i think this is a pretty serious warning to the syrians. if you going to shoot down our planes, if they accidentally slip into your airspace, then expect the same from us. so it does raise the tension on both sides of the border between two countries who were already diplomatically, their relations have been cut for the better part of the last year. i don't think the turks want a war. they do not want to invade into syria. they have resisted calls to establish a buffer zone inside syria to help the armed syrian opposition in the past. so i don't think they want to go headlong into any kind of conflict. they're basically saying they will not tolerate this type of an attack, which brought down one of their planes and also quite possibly has left two pilots who were still mis

think the americans are just happy to see an election happening ok well that could be debated here ivan what do you think about that because i mean the application of american soft power tends to backfire on it because we were the middle of the arab spring was just brought up here i would say there is spring came about this spite of american foreign policy i don't think the united states had anything to do with remoting democracy in the in that region. well i think i think you have a valid point because i think the muslim brotherhood is not necessarily very. open to u.s. ideas and some of the other groups that have taken power as well. and we don't know what's going to happen a lot of these countries when we do you know throw the dictator off like libya or syria goes what are we going to get there we don't know what we're going to get in egypt we talk about soft power i mean the egyptian government arrested some of the groups that were promoting democracy foreign groups so you can see how well like they are in countries if that's an example the other thing i think we need to distinguish
