On the one hand you have these need blitzes and releases a video from a man in muhammad ali who is supposedly a regime insider who is not just revealing a level of corruption and government mismanagement but is also showing the people that while the president asks you to sacrifice while austerity measures are increasing and while opportunities for young people are really decreasing he and his family are living a very lavish lifestyle so could we could be at a crescendo moment that leads to people to break through the fear barrier or this could be a moment where the regime is actually allowing these protests to happen to a certain extent i think its too early to tell where we are but were in a critical moment right going back to mom and to me mention who was a military contractor hes also an actor currently sitting outside egypt giving putting out social social videos social comments why do you think he has resonated so much with the with the Wider Population of egypt that were seeing people actually take it or take up a call to rally on the streets from him. So on one hand hes not i have logically bound hes not in the typical camps that we see hes not an islamist hes a secularist hes in many ways just sort of simple son of the nation hes an actor he has a following but hes also speaking as a rule. Insider as a former contractor for the military who is uncovering or dealing the level of internal corruption but also a complete government mismanagement of us of american egyptian funds if we look at for example. The amount of external loans that egypt has taken they used to be 46000000000 in just 3 years ago today there are 106000000000 egypt has tripled its internal debt it continues to borrow money from the population for some of these basically Government Schemes like the expansion of the suez canal that that not return any money on the investment and so when you have such a clamp down and he reveals that this is actually worse its not just simple corruption but its actually the ruling family sisi and his wife and children are living in excess and luxury at the expense of the different people who are here the other side of his mouth ask them for continued austerity then the resonance of muhammad ali is because hes revealing this internal story that sisi is selling you alive thank you very much dalia from me good to speak to you. The u. S. Has announced its sending more troops to saudi arabia and the United Arab Emirates to bolster defensive capabilities in the face of what it calls iranian aggression the deployment follows a drone and missile attack on key Oil Facilities in saudi Arabia Mike Hanna has this report. It was a hastily arranged News Conference at the pentagon following a meeting of the National Security council the secretary of defense announced the further deployment of u. S. Forces to the middle east the intention he said to bolster the Defense Systems of saudi arabia and the United Arab Emirates the president has approved the deployment of u. S. Forces which will be defensive in nature and primarily focused on air and Missile Defense we will also work to accelerate the delivery of military equipment to the kingdom of saudi arabia and the u. A. E. To enhance their ability to defend themselves its not clear how many troops the u. S. Will provide but the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff emphasize this was a defensive deployment and indicated the u. S. Would ask its allies to offer their support were contributing to saudi arabia as the french we would be looking as the secretary said for other International Partners to also contribute to show your abuse defense. The secretary of defense continued to insist iran was responsible for the attacks on Saudi Oil Installations last weekend brushing off repeated iranian denials of involvement but at the same time confirming that the u. S. Forensic team working with saudi experts had still not concluded its investigation. News of the deployment closely followed President Trumps decision to impose new sanctions on iran. At the end of the day as President Trump hosts a dinner for the Prime Minister of australia it appears that the u. S. Economic pressure will be buttressed by a show of military force even depart the stage is declared to be of a defensive nature i cannot aljazeera washington. P. J. Crowley is a former u. S. Assistant secretary of state and the author of red line Foreign Policy in a time of fractured politics and failing states he joins us live via skype from alexandria in virginia thank you very much for coming on the program i need to ask you this. Donald trumps announcement that they will be reinforcing our sending troops to saudi arabia and the u. A. E. To bolster security in that region was that expected i think its an urgent response obviously whoever was responsible for the attack on the Saudi Oil Fields exploited a hole in the saudi defenses i think this is 1st and foremost an effort to try to plug that hole as quickly as possible its also a signal to saudi arabia you know the United States has a long standing commitment to defend the kingdom and this is our you know showing that our got in and then thirdly i think its a matter of deterrence has been moved and i say it was to make sure theres not a for a restoration has made it very clear that this isnt going to be a conflict there isnt a conflict on the horizon what does this tell you about possibly it might be early days yet but about his new National Security advisor are we seeing a less hawkish stance from there. No i think this is very consistent with donald trump you know he has made clear that he wants to spend most of his energy here in the United States fixing problems at home he doesnt hes been very critical of his predecessors for getting in paul d d the middle eastern conflict and hes very reluctant to start one of his watch and meanwhile hes also said that hes going to target iran with. With sanctions instead can he can you give us an idea of what kind of pressure that the u. S. Is hoping to put on iran way i long with these troops along with sanctions what is it that theyre expecting to gain from this well you know if it remains to be seen. How much more the United States can do on under sanctions from no doubt that the iranian economy is suffering as a result but this is a fundamental dilemma ministration it has a policy of maximum pressure. Iran has a policy of maximum resistance and so even asio thrust in this most recent you know challenge in the gulf theres no clear path to try to eventually resolve the larger issues that have developed between the United States and iran donald trump wants iran to blink and right now so far iran as is not willing to do that right and then not so long ago on turned down the prospect of possible bilateral talks so what is likely to be the reaction from iraq iran given that this kind of escalation in pressure more troops are on its region on the region there or what do you think how do you think were going to react to this. Well iran already has reacted by saying you know we didnt do it you know but this is a sophisticated attack that would have here well beyond the immediate utilities though. Insurgency 1 i think iran has made a point in this extent a strong thing would be United States and saudi arabia to saudi arabia its neighbors might go you know that there is a Economic Cost to pay. For the current policy i think you know what weve seen over the past several months is some sort of incident calm another incident calm so i would think that you know this is not the last time that we will see an attack of this nature but i would think for a moment given the iranian action and the United States reaction. To wait and see you know weeks from now you know where things go where things go next p. J. Crowley thank you very much for your time and insight youre quite well well there on foreign minister has said that saudi arabia and the United Arab Emirates want to fight iran to the last american as comments come in response to the visit of the u. S. Secretary of state to the gulf we have more now from samus ravi finally granted a visa irans foreign minister took off for the us friday morning to attend this years United Nations General Assembly already underway at its headquarters in new york as he flew so did the tweets responding to his american counterpart u. S. Secretary of state mike pompei oh who during a visit to the middle east a day earlier accused iran of war mongering. Its not iran that wishes to fight to the last american rather hes bt hosts who seem to wish to fight iran to the last american the team host a reference to crown prince muhammad and saw him on the line suggesting saudi arabia wants americans to fight its war with iran thats in a direct quote from a secret 2010 state Department Memo released by wiki leaks in it former u. S. Secretary of state robert gates made critical comments about his countrys saudi allies not wanting to get their hands dirty in diplomatic circles no doubt a deep cut by irans foreign minister using remarks by pompous predecessor against him back in to her run a military advisor to the Supreme Leader left little doubt about irans conviction. If the americans think of any plots the iranian nation will respond from the mediterranean to the red sea and to the indian ocean american should take. Seriously any movement against iran will affect the whole region no veiled threats here invoking the name of the hizbullah leader in lebanon a clear nod to a close ally and a reminder to would be aggressors iran has back up the latest world words were sparked when saudi and american officials said an attack on saudi Oil Facilities claimed by yemens fighters was really irans handiwork irans forceful denials in rebuke of u. S. And saudi accusations is likely to dominate the conversation well into next week thats when were expecting iranian president Hassan Rouhani who was also just granted a visa it seems to speak at the u. N. In new york. And yemen is hit the rebels have proposed an end of hostilities to saudi arabia and that they say theyll stop targeting the kingdom with their weapons but only if we had agreed to end its own attacks the group is fighting the coalition and yemen and the responsibility for the attacks on saudi arabia. Yes Oil Facilities a week ago. We will cease to target Saudi Arabian territory with military drone Ballistic Missiles and all other forms of weapons and we wait for a reciprocal move from them or even better for them to clear that all kinds of attacks including a real compartment will cease we reserve the right to respond if they fail to reciprocate positively to this initiative the continuation of this war will not benefit any side on the contrary it could lead to dangerous developments which we do not wish to take place we say this knowing that the ones who would suffer more are the enemy nations. Has more from the yemeni capital sanaa. More than one occasion the whole of these have called for unilateral cease fires the saudi arabia of not responding committing to the their declares his fires. But hopefully many expect that the latest initiative declared by the head of the. Transitional council which is the running the Government Affairs that this cease fire would hold its place. We have declared that they will stop their attacks on saudi arabias territories special falling on the oil refinery of all bukkake and the whole race which has led to catastrophic. Consequences for the saudi arabia well in lawrence it is a professor at the Elliott School of International Affairs at George Washington university and he says the saudis arent likely to accept the who peace terms for troops. Well its certainly very important to our lets say reassessing a little bit and stepping back from there you know multi month onslaught on saudi positions and the offer is quite interesting i mean on one level its already been broken the saudis have hit. And this isnt reported but these hold little bits of saudi territory and there are a number of reasons why the saudis arent going to accept the terms or stop their fighting and their shelling of civilian areas and everything theyre doing any time soon but on the other hand its as you said the timing is really interesting and i think even though the have taken full responsibility for the hit sites in a sense theyre saying you know let us step back a little bit from this conflict and please stop hitting us which implies that maybe they dont want to be the center of saudi attention right now they would like to sort of be left alone a little bit now thats not going to happen but its very interesting that thats their current posture. Ok lets go to the u. K. Now where the emperor of qatar has met with the british Prime Minister Boris Johnson in london a statement from downing street shake. Me and johnson agreed the war in yemen must come to an end. Because of. Your personal relationship years ago just as i do. Relationship with god there is a very strong relationship. Over the.

The latest news as it breaks while the lunar lander has been lost officials expect to receive images from the all the top with details coverage dangers remain for black blood the wrong girl. Walks through the eastern 3rd of dorian. From around the world his body will lie in state for a few days. At the national you know city in the capital. Hello again youre watching aljazeera and heres your minor main stories this hour protests have broken out across egypt for the 1st time in years of thousands demanding that president of the resign there are reports that one person has been killed in the Northern City of months or up just suffocating from tear gas. And protesters have torn down a banner showing sisi people have stomped on them and burned them theyre also rallying in cairos historic talk we are square thats an area that was a focus during the revolution and 2011. And the pentagon has announced its world said hundreds of extra troops to saudi arabia and the u. A. E. In response to the we said attacks on saudi Oil Facilities washington has blamed iran for last weeks attacks although yemens with the rebels said they were behind it. But lets get more on those protests in egypt. An army is an associate professor of Political Science here at the institute of graduate studies thank you for coming on set today. I want to talk about it weve had a look at the wider protest movement but i want to talk about how this is happening or why it is allowed to happen with regards to the fact that not that long ago this would have been completely shut down by Security Forces thats true i think the mean to the type of the last couple of weeks is the emergence of muhammad ali the guy that came out was many. Leaks about 60 corruption which i would say put an end to the narrative of says that he is clean hes honest is trying to build the egyptian country so when he came out with these kind of leaks that i mean he has many evidences about his corruption and about ccs men if i would say theres so this has changed dramatically the public mood in egypt from this kind of frustration there is no hope for a change from this close sphere to this kind of public anger from sisi and from his corrupted policies and from his corrupted men that are surrounding him so now we are seeing this kind of. And get coming to the streets so we saw this last night at many places in egypt would come to the streets to ask for all you one thing forces you to resign and to step down very similar to what happened 2011 i would say the only difference so far is the response of Security Forces to these protests protesters until now until now there is some sort of wisdom in dealing with these kind of whats the until now so we dont see this kind of going to sion that would kill people. So. This might be explained by one of 2 scenarios with the c. C. Was understood meeting whats happening and he didnt think that he would come out to the streets then he would feel to come out what could be might be being get killed or there is some sort of power struggle within the state and there is a party within the city thats trying to give a cover for these can the forests that might lead to the disposal. To get out of his office so are you saying that youre getting the sense that the Security Forces are more restrained now are they definitely i mean if you compare the response today to what happened i would say 7 years ago its totally different i mean in 2011 people were killed when they cant go to the streets today we didnt see that kind of violence even we saw some Police Officers were trying to you know to speak politely nicely with the protesters telling them dont do violence violent things just try to be peaceful so we have different atmosphere different responses from scripture that might tell us something about whats going on within the political regime egypt now one of the interesting points made both by our correspondent earlier and our guest earlier was that the age of these protesters theyre much younger than not necessarily the ones that fought for the 2011 revolution to oust mubarak what do you know about the kind of movement that could happen or that that is being formed as it seems so we cannot speak about movement right now were speaking about very spontaneous kind of group of protesters who came to the streets for Different Reasons some of them came because they dont have jobs some of them came because they have their relatives or their friends that were very restive or killed so egypt has been living under a very brutal dictatorship over the last 7 or 6 years so in each egyptian home you would find grievances that came out together last night to express itself in the popular sphere. Nonny great to talk to you thank you rick. In other news millions across the globe have taken part in the biggest Climate Change protest on record young people to believe they were skipping process and work to demand that governments do more to curb them as a cable is on the reports.
