for over -- or about two years, now, and it has actually intensified since the military ousted mohamed morsie militant brotherhood in 2013 after mass protests against him. so the army has been very used to this kind of warfare, but, of course, the egyptian army is a largely conventional army, and the enemy that it's confronting is largely an enemy that uses guerilla warfare tactics in north sinai, so ones that really largely depends on car bombs, i.e.d.s and, of course, we can't forget that these militants operate in areas some of which provide havens for them within the region. so it's a very difficult enemy they're confronting. in terms of how they've managed to do, this was, as i said, a very sustained -- a very sustained attack or clash that happened today. most of the times, the militants tend to launch attacks and then disappear or melt away into various neighborhoods within northern sinai, but this time it seems like they really did put up a fight. >> woodruff: and just quickly these militants are an affiliate, an offshoot of islamic state? >> right, so they're called sinai province,

demonstrators called for the ouster of mohamed morsi. >> a deal would grant 85 billion euros from germanyo greece. the country insisted on spending cuts and tax hikes in return for any new deal. we will have a live update on this story from berlin later in the program. >> there's anger in britain today. the military has been conducting airstrikes on isil in syria. those documents show the british jets had been under the command of the u.s. led coalition. they'd been authorized to go after isil in iraq. the parliament had banned any intervention in syria during that country's civil war. >> on the agenda today general election releases second quarter earnings this morning. the country is seen as a bellwhether for the economy. >> progressives go to phoenix for the annual conference. bernie sanders and listen beth warren are both set to speak. >> japan is scrapping plans for the 2020 stadium because of costs. >> thousands of people in illinois are without power this morning after a tornado swept through. emergency crews are on the ground now about 200 miles southwest of chicago to start clean

when you look at a country like egypt, clearly the death sentence of mohammed morsi and some other things that you have had problems with happened this year, but clearly last year there was a massive crackdown on not just people who had committed crimes but also just in general members of the muslim brotherhood and there's been a criticism that the u.s. has not been as forceful as it could be because of its important relationship with the new cc government. i'm wondering if you look back on the last year you had some problems in bahrain, clearly egypt is another issue where you have a close ally and i'm wondering if you could reflect on the past year and whether these political important national security relations make it difficult for you to be able to advance human rights in the way that a human rights defender such as yourself looks at these issues. >> these are difficult issues and they require difficult choices. if it was easy i wouldn't be interested in having this job. it would be really boring. even people who are deeply committed to the defense of human rights around the world o
