that i totally agree with i don't think it is right to arrest the top leaders of the muslim brothers but also keep in mind that the new disney prime minister has extended this is to the muslim brothers and they refused right now the muslim brotherhood on top of a very high tree they have to come down from this to be first and that are voices inside the muslim brothers who are willing to negotiate but right now we also have to understand what can be described as the trauma the roma ties and we have to just quickly are we are we seeing a democratic process though in egypt no you have seeing an evolutionary process that is not complete yet but once it's complete let's see what would be the outcome whether it will be democracy or a moment. right now it is still out of illusion the approach is that is not over yet and there is a child so the military could continue far longer than is expected to do so or what they said is going to do say. i doubt the military has shown before that the last thing good wants is to rule. it all was once a political civil organization to hide behind its limits

another target of the muslim brothers, the christian copts. nearly fifteen million of egypt's population are coptic christians. mostly they live relatively harmoniously in this muslim majority country but some islamist extremists want to see them driven out. as they did in iraq and sectarian violence has risen and egypt has witnessed some deadly attack on egypt's churches and christians. the last one even attacked the coptic cathedral triggering the anger of millions of muslims and many egyptian copts doubted morsi's commitment to protect them properly. now that morsi has been ousted there's a countersuspicion by some muslim brother supporters that christians somehow had a hand in his removal and that is extremely dangerous because if egypt were to fall prey to jihad violence coptic christians would find themselves easy targets. before the june 30th of people the leaders of the muslim brothers went to the coptic hope, an eminently respectable and wiseman, to ask him to prevent copts from joining the demonstrations. something he firmly refused t

on one hand, the muslim brother hood with deem roots in the communities. on the other, the army seized control of the country and wants to hold it. unless they can channel all of this into political action and not street protests, it's a recipe for more violence. the violence continued after dark. running battles spread to one of the bridges over the nile in cairo that lead to tahrir square, the center of protests against president morsi. the dreams of a better life that so many had after the overflow of the old mubarek regime faded away long ago. now what matters is stopping the nightmare getting worse. >> for more on the volatile situation in egypt, i spoke a brief time ago with a visiting egyptian professor at the national defense university. kareem, you are a career diplomat under president mubarek. how dangerously polarized is egypt tonight? >> well, i think that the starting point, i think, is to comprehend the magnitude of what we've seen in egypt. i mean, the latest crisis, of course, was trigered by a protest movement that has been building up ove

change the -- they don't want a great segment of the population is not willing to bring back the muslim brothersecause they have committed a lot of mistakes and have pushed the whole country towards a dangerous situation, sectarian problems and so on. security threat to in the country. so we have to find out how we can get out of this dangerous situation. how you ink, then, find out to get out of the problem, what effect do the two american senators, mccain and lindsey have, they are republican and come from the opposite side of the political spectrum to president obama and will be highly critical of the way the obama administration have handled this. >> yes. >> what do you think they are going to do? >> they are critical but will have a better idea of what is going on in egypt because i suppose that they will be listening directly to all parties. so it has been said the muslim brothers have succeeded lately connection to both parties so they are in a better position. now i think there is a chance , for k to other parties people to advance in egypt with a position to the muslim brothers and be a

the muslim brotherhood, the government run by the muslim brotherhood? >> well, as far as the opposition goes, i mean, really, it's a divided group, and now that the table is turned and the muslim brother hood has -- is going to be in the political wilderness, it's a whole different ball game, but it's something that the brotherhood is accustomed to existing in. you have to remember that for decades under first presidents, the brotherhood existed in the political wilderness in a secret world, and they developed all sorts of mechanisms to hide their activities from -- from not only the government but people in general so that put among many egyptians a deep concern about the must almost brotherhood and actions and intentions and really, we've gone full circle. we're back to where the muslim brotherhood members are being rounded up, arrested, put under house arrest. we really have come full circle, but this time around they tasted power. they have had for one year, one of their own as president of egypt and now back in the wilderness again. we'll see how they act. >> one important diminish and minimize the possibility of a bad backlash, even if it's 10, 15 years down the line, whether ev

the muslim brothers are carrying pmore injured people, but that does not deter more and more people coming to this place. it is like civil war in the middle of downtown right now. >> basically, we have reported there have been a number of death and many injuries. is the unrest spreading? >> i can see from my office this will take hours, and there will be a lot of people injured. this is not like a few hundred people fighting each other. this is like several thousand people on each side. now the people from tahrir square are storming throughout the street, playing cat and mouse right now. hundreds and hundreds of people are behind them, trying to storm the muslim brotherhood, shooting against the other side. >> we have to leave it there. thank you very much for the update. >> let's turn to business news now because there's good news from the u.s. labor market -- a government jobs report showed sharp hiring gains last month. but the pace of hiring could not bring the u.s. unemployment rate down. it is stuck at 7.6%. the average unemployment rate in the u.s. is six percent. well, good news fr

but if we look to the statement issued by the muslim brothers, it seems there is a total rejection because the muslim brothers put as condition the reinstatement of mohamed morsi first and then proceed to reconciliation, which is unlikely to happen at all. the division will continue. the demonstration will continue. to ae this will not lead major confrontation in the streets. >> thank you very much. >> the philippine president has delivered his annual state of the nation address. he says he needs more time to implement his promises to tackle poverty and corruption. we have this report from manila. >> in his state of the nation speech today, the president talked about a highlights of the first half of his presidency. in his first three years in office, he says he was able to modernize the philippine military. he talked about his projects on agriculture, tourism, and education. he started his speech in a more defensive tone. he admits six years may not be enough to solve the deeply rooted problems. he says this is not enough excuse to be more complacent. he says after three years, the econom

extent india in egypt can come back is really if mr morsi understand that and i don't think the muslim brothers have any policy the muslim brothers are the same line of the past or the g.m. they are for the world bank they are for that being an ally of united states they are the one who are even united against syria you remember two weeks ago mr morsi he organized his son some group and he decided that it is to cut the relationship with syria but i think the population of egypt demands one subordinate of egypt second independent egypt was in the dependent policy economy carly and at the same time also rearranging the policy of the region we the people of the region and we hope that this lucian will continue to reach to this result and we will support and we are. our heart and our mind is with the egyptian population dr hassan very quickly if you can how stable will be if the military takes. the military is part of the egyptian population i don't think the people of egypt wants the military to take over most of the military and the soldiers are part of the population there is more than thirty mi

proportions not only for egypt but for the whole of the whole of the arab region the fact that the muslim brothers have lost their grip and egypt signifies something especially when you see over twenty million people go down to the streets in opposition to the rule of the muslim brothers that's a historic u. turn that has taken place after decades of heads of money that the islamists have exercised over the pulse of the arab street so as far as that goes i think we have we have a huge momentous change that will reflect itself over a decade still come as for what's in store for egypt while we cannot say that egypt will suddenly take an anti imperialist or anti zinah stance the people who are most likely to succeed one hundred morsi such as al but are they or are almost essentially follow the same line on foreign policy economic policy of the i am on syria on peace with israel as mohamed morsi does basically so as far as that goes i don't think there will be a huge change in the near future however. i think what has just happened will open the door for the front trends to appear that are not visible

the muslim brothers feel comfortable participating down the road. >> is the leadership trying to pressure the brotherhood into some sort of negotiated settlement right now? >> they are trying but i don't anticipate it will work. i think they will pay a price choice. i think we will see the of the brotherhood. washington,s from thank you. you're watching extended coverage of the ongoing turmoil in egypt. they have been staging rallies into the night. on one side, calling to an end for military rule and on the other, supporting military rule. 35 people have been entered after the army fired teargas near the october 6 bridge. killed.ople have been we are speaking to people inside the mosque that are calling for help after being trapped by their attackers. over and before i do that, take a look at these pictures from the city where just a few minutes ago we are getting reports of security at thefiring tear gas anti-military protesters that have camped out for many days now. it could potentially have reached a turning point this evening. we are joined from cairo. covering that story for us. >>

now to egypt, the muslim brother hood has rejected the interim's president's time table for elections early next year. the president announced the plan less than a day after more than 50 supporters of the deposed president mouhammad morsi died in a gun attack. a committee is going to draft a new constitution. they will be announced in two weeks. a popular referendum on the constitution will be held four months from now. the government says parliamentary elections will take place two weeks after that referendum and six weeks after that egyptians will vote for a president. an egyptian judge and constitutional lawyer told us about the possible implications of all of this. >> the most important points in about the president having the legislative and executive power at the same time. and having these two authorities in the hands of the interim president is something that is dangerous, as we all know, but i think there is no other option in the meantime. talking about an amendment which which means that we will not have a new constitution, just a new constitution amendment. the new amendme

another target of the muslim brothers of the christian. nearly 15 million of aegis population are christians. mostly there live relatively harmoniously in this muslim majority country. some islamists extremists want to see them driven out as they did. sectarian violence as it is during their rule of morsi, egypt would nest deadly attacks on the churches and christians. the last one even attacked the federal cathedral which triggered the anchor of millions many egyptians doubted the commitment to protect them. now that morsi has been ousted, there is a counter suspicion by some muslim brother of supporters that christians somehow had a hand in his removal. that is extremely dangerous because if egypt were tough fall prey to violence christians would find themselves easy targets. before the upheaval the leaders of the muslim brothers went to an eminently respectable and wise man to ask and to prevent the joining of the demonstrations. something keep firmly refused saying that the church does not interfere in politics. they're free in their de

the decisive question is this -- will the military be able to form a transitional government with some muslim brothersbeing included? or will they refuse in a cooperation? in that case, egypt is really going to embrace quite a few problems because you cannot exclude half of the population from and political participation. >> as you know, the way that egypt goes, the arab world follows. this is the first arab spring country going back to the old ways. what repercussions will this have for the region? >> it's a very divisive question indeed. egypt is the cultural and political center of the arab world. it will have repercussions in other parts of the arab world. should this experiment in democracy fail, should the muslim brothers go underground, there will be repercussions in tunisia, algeria. muslim brothers in other countries will also go wild. >> there are certainly a lot at stake. miguel, thank you so much for joining us. bolivia has appealed to the united nations to take action against what they are calling the kidnapping of its president. by european countries test. test. test. test. test. test. t

i this i they're very unlikely to do that because as the muslim brothers and the president have proven unwilling to compromise. they're not conciliatory people. but that i think is the only thing that could save them from some imposed solution by the military. >> warner: why has, michelle then, why has the military intervened now? i mean, there have been -- i take your point. the protests have been nowhere this large -- but they've stood by through a lot of ups and downs in the past year. a lot of unrest. >> i think in order to understand what's going on in egypt, we have to see there are more than two players here. you have the islamist. you have the secular opposition camp. you also have the institutions of the egyptian state, of the mubarak state. we're still there. we're not really changed by the egyptian revolution. >> warner: by that you mean? by that i mean the military is part of that. the police, the judiciary, the state media, all the ministries. there are six or seven million bureaucrats in egypt. those parts of the state have been becoming more and more disenchanted with th

the party is the political wing of the muslim brothered hood. supporters of the ousted president continued protests in the capital cairo on wednesday. the first day of the fasting month. military leaders overthrew morsi. husband supporters faced off against security forces in the days suns. they say soldiers opened fire monday at a gathering outside the army barracks where morsi is believed to be held. still, members of the muslim brotherhood say they will stay on oh the streets until morsi is returned to power. >>> the united states has refrained from taking sides but president obama has spoken to egypt's neighbors who have influence over the country. obama and two of oh his allies in the region discussed ways to restore peace in egypt. obama spoke by phone to crown prince mohammed bin zayed al nahyan and emir sheikh tamin bin hamad al thani. obama told them violence is unaccept bable. he said it's essential all parties join in the political process. to bring stability back to egypt. >>> investigators probing the cash of flight 214 are zeroing i

general has taken because if there is no massive turnout, then he will be in jeopardy because the muslim brothersill say, see, in fact, the general is not followed by the people of egypt. so it's a real coup, and it is not a popular uprising like the army is saying. so he is trying with all of his allies to push people to go to the streets. we even have private and independent televisions deciding to stop their series tomorrow, a very popular series to have the people go to the streets instead of looking at the tv. but for the time being, from what it appears on social media, is that the rally could be quite important. >> the train races into view. in a heartbeat, crashes into a concrete wall, skiididding along the track with terrifying speed. security footage has showed the moment the express train derailed as it hurtled around a curve in spain on wednesday. the trains excessive speed is expected to be part of the tragedy that left 80 people dead. one of the drivers under police guard in hospital has been put under formal investigation. sarah morris has more on the ongoing inquiries into what ca

everyone was approached including the muslim brothers. i do not think they will accept to participate in the cabinet. might, but we do not know if they have decided. i think they are hesitating because once they participate in the cabinet, they might lose some of their supporters and voters. they have a strategy to try to replace the muslim brotherhood. i think they're swinging back and forth. i am sorry to interrupt. thank you. it is good to have you with us on al jazeera. targeting a police patrol has left one officer dead and 10 more injured. there have been a series of bombings across the country. on sunday, at least 30 killed and more than 100 hurt. the blasts going off in mainly shiia areas of people were breaking their religious fast. in boston, three bombs exploded near markets. other cities were also hit. let's get more on that from baghdad. just shiia targets anymore. some of the most recent have s,cluded sunni mosque including cafes and supermarkets. more than 300 people have been killed this month, a big increase. joining me is

so, you know, that could be a tactic to pressure the muslim brothers to compromise and come to the negotiating table and try and actually partake in this new transition. i hope that that's the case and not the beginning of a crackdown that could only spell further violence, further bloodshed and further instability for egypt at a time that can ill afford it especially economically and for the cause of social peace. >> sure. thank you for that. from the international crisis brief here in cairo via skype for you. viewers get a sense of the statement that was made by the head of the military, the defense here and around 9:00 on wednesday evening. this is what he said. >> families that -- >> translator: the armed forces calling the egyptian people to continue to have peaceful protests and in the crisis and shed the blood. it will respond with cooperation of the interior ministry with a strong determination if they deviate in accordance to the law. >> right. a man who i know will say that was music to his ears. a man who is being part of the growing opposition here in egypt. he's a founding member

it was very violent confrontations as you have seen and very much a sense of the muslim brother hood that they are going to confront this. where wit will it end? will it continue to escalate or will it tone down? right now it's very difficult to call. >>suarez: in the past weeks in the united states president obama has been criticized by elected officials for taking somewhat of a hands-off attitude for egypt while in egypt rival faction he are complaining that the united states is too involved. how is that happening? >> you know this is a deeply divided country. muslim brotherhood on the one side, the opposition to morsi on the other. the wung thing you find unity on here is that the united states is at fault. what i mean by that is the muslin brotherhood will say the united states gave a green light to the mill try coup as they would define it. the other side they would say that the united states gave too much deference to morsi that they were supportive to his government even as so many here feel it was failing, failing on economy, failing on security. it was a grab for power as so

30 million prus people are in the streets in egypt, it is not only about president morsi and the muslim brother hood, but it's about the economy. it's the economy, stupid. and that is the bottom line in egypt as it is in most countries. and the fact that the military chose to put mohammed out there to speak shows they want to get the economy on track. it's also very important to point out that the arm itself did not put a general in charge. so it's really arguable that this was a military coup. >> we've gotten word that there was some sort of warning for all nonessential american personnel to leave. you can expand on that a bit? >> well, i've been told unless this came in just the last few minutes, we do know patrick kennedy in the last few days had issued -- had allowed for evacuations of personnel from the embassy. it was not what is known as a noncombatant evacuation. that may have changed in the last few minutes. but when i spoke to pentagon officials just a few hours ago, there had not been a decision taken as of kret by the state department that they were going it evacuate what's known as

who is to say they won't join forces now with the muslim brother -- brotherhood to reinforce the chaos in the streets. >> they have separated and in many ways said they are against the brotherhood. they have come behind the brotherhood because they were given it is fuel of the revolution in the past few weeks where they were put in luxor. the people said are you kidding? you are putting terrorists into running governorships. that's why our tourism is tanking. then they revolted. i think the brotherhood has made a deal with the devil domestically. the people again rose against that to numbers unseen in the middle east. >> are you optimistic for what we are seeing as the second revolution? >> i am optimistic if our president can begin to lead and help them put back ngo's to guide them and how to build a secular democracy. if we continue to be asleep, i'm afraid that the chaos will continue to embroil over there. >> we are so grateful to you for joining us. we really appreciate it. >> anytime. thank you. i appreciate it. >>> while the violence continues in egypt following the military's m

the muslim brother activist described the incident as a blood bath, a massacre and some accounts do backr claim that the soldiers fired live ammunition into the crowd. security officials do claim though that there were terrorists inside that crowd that fired back at the soldiers and soldiers were simply defending the building whichever account is correct, the incident has pushed the two sides even further apart in this deadly situation. a leading muslim figure warning on monday that there will be a civil war in this country. support for the military backed interim government has weakened as they scramble tonight to put out a so-called road map or a handover of power back to a civilian democratically elected rule. one thing though we are seeing among many people out in the street in the past couple of days, a perceived u.s. mishandling of the situation. the pro-morsi camp thinks that the white house must have backed what they have openly branded a military coup and the anti-morsi camp say that washington stuck for way too long might still be sticking with a very unpopular ruler. on tuesda

the muslim brotherhood leadership. although, it was never really overtly anti-american. the u.s. military, which is now in charge has strong ties to the americans. but the muslim brotherslayed nice with washington, they said all the right things with israels. they weren't anti-american or anti-american interests. the incoming government, whatever form it takes will be less threatening to american citizens. and that's a good thing. but there is also a precedent with an elected president being ousted for bad politics especially after one year. that may cause a problem with the u.s. in terms of stability. if whoever's the next president has a bad first year, you can bet the muslim brotherhood is going to be out there screaming for his head. it's hard to tell. it's a mixed bag. >> let me go to joel rubin. after years of listening to the bbc on radio when i was in the peace corps. i always said, conditions are stable. generally old powers like us, and we're an old power now, like stability. what are the chances we're going to get stability in that country where tourism will come back, the economy will pick up and there will be less chance of the country being radicalized af
