a legal case against one distant julian assange and the depth of another. i'll explain of all 2 stories that reveal how western news outlets choose their heroes and villains is really news channels keep the human eyes ation becoming tormenting the palestinians. at the mercy of his results and germany's author, jenna saw the one it's called the nurse has inflicted on them. maybe memories of faith over the years in both countries. judgment day is approaching for julie and assigned the co founder of with you weeks . his case has just been heard for the final time by the u. k. fi court. 2 judges

will now decide if he will be expedited to the us. should that happen? assange, who expose the american war crimes and human rights abuses by several governments winning various journalism awards. along the way. we'll face spying charges in the us and a jail term of up to 175 years. the sam sharing came in the wake of the story of another jail, the distant one who just died in prison, russian opposition leader alexis, of all the volunteer was a political opponent of president vladimir putin, but the journalistic work his organization did exposing corruption at the kremlin also put a target on his back. western journalists have made a mushroom of all in the but ask yourself, why have so many of those same reporters treated the assange story so differently. so obediently, given the implications scary wants that this case has for journalists everywhere.

usage trial is the press freedom trial of the 21st century, 5 in america, in this case will determine the future of the 1st amendment in my country. but if you're not an american, you should care maybe even more because jill and assigned as an australian journalist, which he weeks is based in iceland, they never operated into us. and the us is essentially saying, we can do this to anyone anywhere in the world. the it is a case being orchestrated in washington, conducted by some shadowy figures behind the scenes with the british legal system marching to the beat, a transatlantic coverage. in the 5 years, julia massage has wasted away in a maximum security prison in london. fighting off expedition attempts by the us, he has deteriorated so badly that he was too sick to attend to court session on his face is locked out of the public die with far too many journalists and news

organizations having turned their backs on colluding in their own way his reputation has suffered, along with these, how many people believe things that are simply not true about julian assault or about what this case is about. we just recently published a series of corrections of common misconceptions and the case was precisely this reason. it's much harder to try to correct people's opinions to show them when they have been exposed to untrue information or information taken out of context. the end result is that it enables discontinued prosecution of a publisher for publishing information in the public interest in treating assigns is famous for on exposing the american empire and exposing the wars. and that's going to it's done in iraq. but actually i think he's should be famous for exposing the west the media. many of they've done this with what for then bought 6 big deals for books deals and the film, none of them. what the hearing so high for so it's

a truly horrific story. this is a legal story, least with presidential politics in 2017. the obama administration part and chelsea matic julian assange is primary source for his biggest leaks and decided not to charge assign. it concluded it could not do that without also implicating the mainstream news. outlets that published the material wiki leaks provide like the new york times and the guard at ease in 2019 donald trump reversed that decision and had a sand indict. joe biden then took the ball from truck and ran one of the 18 federal charges against essential 17 fall under the espionage of a problem. matters piece of legislation that dates back to world war one. that law was written with fines or saboteurs in mind and has since been used against whistle blowers like many. and it leaves no legal rule for what is arguably the most

important defense for any journalist in the gulf. and that is doing work that is in the public interest. nevertheless, the american authorities are insist that the espionage attract passed in 1917 is somehow fit for purpose in our post 911 work a lot of the things that was normalized on the warranty. or, you know, those chickens are coming home to roost. now facade, and she does not want to get an extra diamond, because he will be treated like terrorist and united states deprived of basic freedoms and rights, affectively tortured on the basis of these and national security threat. sondra is the most dramatic, most extreme example of this increasing war on your descent and generalising. how can you prosecute to sons and to prosecute the papers it was a published? that's why the case is so ridiculous. excuse to be embarrassing to the british

establishment. they all going forward with this, the extra di h r list to a sad country for publishing. evidence of that will crime as to that, that, that countries on record is putting to assessment that john is in london and this was reveal within you off the news. our school we're cutting us officials went on the record to reveal the c i plus some senior trump administration officials and c . i executives even discussed assassination massage. we seen that law be used against whistle blowers in the past, but this is the 1st time it has been used against the publisher. that means if this precedent is that any journalist, i mean media organization that works with leaked classified information could be targeted in the same way. if journalists refrain from covering these stories because of possible legal risk to them, then we as a publics don't have access to information that is in our interest b. s, we know shaq has become a tool. so your political persecution, if you link information the near times to say over drowned programs really great.

they're not going to prosecute you. if you expose like daniel ellsberg did the vietnam war, you expose the rock for like chelsea manage it, they're going to prosecute you under the espionage that. so we have this overly broad, overly big, unenforceable, unconstitutional monstrosity. and it's a wow, the government to have this tool to go after and silence its critics. julian assange is latest court hearing, came just 4 days after another well known distance. alexa, in the volney died in a prison, a russian was. the parallel is not exact, and the following was primarily a politician, but his organization also did some work that many russians considered journalists, including an investigation into an opulent vacation home, built for president vladimir. what a striking is the amount of coverage and of all these case and his death attracted

in the western meeting compared to the relatively few stories those outlets have done on the assange case. the difference in controlling hero was gone. especially when one considers the implications, the assange prosecution could have on those same news as they have to come prioritizing, self preservation, their relationships with the governments involved over what should be their primary self interest. the potential impact of this case on their journalism. their ability to speak truth to power. add back to the list of things that julian a search through his own story. as repeat from devonie and sar latria differently by the western press for variety of reasons. personal cultural professional, the media in the united states and the west tends to follows the tech tights and

biases of the governments that they live on and saw in the vault. and he might be vilified and the russian press. val arised in the west and perhaps we find it difficult to kind of escape from our own biases. let me end up in our silos and we end up in our own echo chambers. if the west, the media had mobilized in simple gene and assigned to is a colleague and he would be a free man. now, in a democratic society with an independent press, every single major newspaper would have been campaigning. from the day he went into belmont prison. for his release, there's been some obstacles in favor of him editorials. ec set you up with this being no concise campaign. the west, the macy media and corporate media is not a check on how it's an accessory to power and he exposed that. and i think partly the reason mainstream john of this headington is because he expose them. this is a complex, legalistic story with a relatively simple bottom line. a journalist, a multiple award winning one who exposed far too many war crimes for us to list

here has been locked up in maximum security for 5 years. fighting an extradition, ordered the food land to him behind bars for the rest of his life. if juliet assange dies in prison, how different is that really to the alexi and of all new story? it's just happening in a different place in slow motion. and should it come to that? what will the news coverage look like then? we don't yet know how the vonny died, but a lot of people are willing to say that if he, since he was in russian prison since he was persecuted, that put in his personally responsible the world tonight condemning russia to using mosque out of assassinating alexi and of all me and i think that's a fine standard, but we know julia sanchez health is really bad or if he dies in us custody, or we're going to say, joseph biden, or whoever the present isn't the point personally murdered him for all these years or so a lot of mixed opinions as it relates to julia massage,

because if we're going to say that in the volume case, we need to be prepared to say that in the assigned case. so, well, this plays out in london court. we ultimately still put the responsibility on this administration divided. there are several ways out of it if, if they're not able to simply drop the charges and close the case as a point of principal, a political solution could be found that allows perhaps for the time who's already served in prison. so suffice some people don't care about julianna's on may not like to manifesto, but they should understand that regardless of him, the situation impacts. as all it's about all of our right now. next step the as really journalists taking a plausible case of genocide and putting a positive spin on it initially is reading news outlets maintained a near total silence on the atrocities and the mistreatment of palestinians in gaza . more recent reporting deals with that topic in an ugly way target enough is here

with more to is ray the documentary broadcast this week, provide a window into the abuse and torture suffered by protestant in prison is adopted in garza. i'm the d truman. i've ation that positive for john live. i'm on his ready tv. first up, the right wing news outlets channel 1400, some old little included loving. the 1st of all of the jet had the kind of the entire image and it's reports. we see the interrogation. i'm assuming the ation of protest and in captive who we are told her mouth operative. of course, none of these men have been given a trial, and the threshold for who qualifies a suspect is very low. indeed. we also have a fund from his rating soldiers about how they have tortured, honest opinions in that can hold them apologies for the kilometer single additional it who is they've been told to tell him they ahold of me. so more than

a human, someone to whom i've seen them tell the sure notes the story got a similar treatment from the more offensive, leaning tunnel 13, which gave that view as a tool. the prison housing postilion captive with his ready prison god serving as guide the time somebody all the time. believe me, venice the or, or shift too much for your numbers will keep on 9 because the shooting the things in both reports align with the testimonies of the many palestinians taken prisoner in gaza and the crew environment treatment they have received of the hands of his ready soldiers this past week the you in the top human rights body published what it called credible allegations of agreed. just violations by is ready soldiers, including the execution of women and goals in gaza and the sexual assault and rape of protest in women. and is ready to custody. thanks. talk in january

a few months into the bombing of gaza and the, maybe a made some news when it pulled out the german government for its continuing and apparently unconditional support of israel. it said the german a, which carried out a genocide in the maybe early in the 20th century was hardly in a position to judge in 2021. berlin formerly recognized back genocide and agreed to pay 1100000000 euros in what it called, developmental aid, instead of reparations. that's a legal distinction that comes with implications. however, leaders of the communities affected the herero and nama people rejected that offer for decades, and for very different reasons. the genocide was absent in both, and the median and german memorialize ation. there have been efforts to rectify that, but all too often they fail to emphasize the testimonies of the victims and survivors to the listening posts. nick in your head now want to fight for justice. that's been a long treated as a footnote of history. but 1st view were warning,

prepare for some distressing images. in this report, on the outskirts of struck up month, a small town in the might be a wise and old cemetery, buried share of thousands of her river and nominate people who perished in the face . genocide of the 20th century, 19 of the tribes rebelled against vick learn. your route is the german magic monitor general reduced the front truck to issued and from us extermination order. many herrera found inside the german frontier will be executed. i shall span you the women. no children, those who are not killed in combat were down and either executed it will take into concentration camps. when many were to get over the next 4 years, an estimated 75 percent of the heavy river population and 50 percent of the nama

will walk down to 70000 people. the legacy of german colonialism has been said and to limit is collective memory. but the genocide itself has been inexcusable, overlooked the genocide is mostly taken a backseat in national discourse. i think that outside of the affected communities, they has been little effort to actively memorialize not only the genocide, but also the war uprising that contextualize, that period. there is no date of national morning or national would be membranes, despite act of calls from affected communities to establish one. and there's also no standalone museum on one human to memorialize the victims of fit you in a site. and this takes away from the ability for the nation to kind of segment the genocide with in public culture and public history. if you look at public spaces

and the media today, you often see monuments or even street names referring to this period and time. but what these all have in common is that they are reproducing the perspective of the colonizer and not the colonized. so you have a memorial ization of this time period, but it's not necessarily as a genocide, but kind of more as a successful military campaign by the germans. germany lost its calling use during the 1st world war nivia then known as gym and south west africa was placed under the administration of its navy, south africa, by the late 19 sixty's. a liberation struggle that started against germany was being waged against talking so that beyond resistance was led by the southwest for computers organization. this 11988 battle where the south africa agreed to

release. curious lights as what the one, the majority of the poles and the movies gained it to the defense. it was a milestone in the countries. postcolonial is the one that now a big shudder to jennifer. so off to india and is uh there was any far we have that we have rehabilitate, liberated the country from apartheid. however the new narrow it before the new nation was all about that particular period. the bravery of $90.60 so apple liberation, struggle, nothing, as was discussed. so the germans, history has been the res, is the base of deliberate effort from the government to not memorialize is one of the largest projects that any new states has to undertake. is that of the nation building? also taking into consideration the fact that most modern african states, a consequence of foreign troy borders and so often independents, it was

a political, administrative, and cultural imperative to unite the number begins as one people rather than specific ethnic groups. so this motivated the push for more connective narratives like the war independence against a party, but it had a unfortunate consequence which was this oppression. also, the story of the genocide and the war uprising. germany has a culture of rememberance around the holocaust notice for dying and heights developed eco it confronts the actions of the nazi's bench. for decades, the country lived in the states of what's been described as colonial amnesia because of its failure to confront its actions in places like you, maybe you got a student, a 2nd mod class. so just in compass of offline, how feel it in the i'm voiding labels and i'm on. so that's interest,

rick and them in recent years, jim and academics and changes have to come to the address back to learn what i'm going to share and serve as the government for the sincerity remains in question itself of its uh, its best. plus you can v as in send a truck on march along with form the recognizing the genocide, germany offered $1300000000.00. and what it polled development by the offer was rejected by leaders of the river and all the people who said that they had been sideline negotiations and fear that the money which they said was inadequate, would not reach the effect. the commissioners, the double standard in germany's approach to these 2 genocides makes its culture from memories seen more like selective memory. so joe menu spoke on the types that failed to lodge the eps collins from the countries crimes in africa because it's largely associated with the era of national socialism than any of the era in

germany's history. so whereas this culture often you read monuments and memorials that put you e mail content blinked of speed, about cost atrocities, the amount of memorial sites that exist for the defense of the mind here, era, genocide, of very few much of what you've learned about the genocide comes from german learn, you're a documentation that had an agenda. prisoners who died in concentration camps were often decapitated. they had sent to germany. most students, scientific research, to try and prove the ratios. the period of one year. sexual abuse was common practice was differentiate off the naked bodies of the river anomaly and send the images back to germany as post the pictures are expected to an explicit. and therefore this documentation was designed to de,

humanize the river to justify the certification. and even in the modern era, it's still excludes the perspective so then documentations of that particular period that is mainly in the german language. and so a lot of file people can say, 99.9 percent, they don't speak to jim in. so those colonial documentations tend to be access, but german, academics who understand the language, if you have these english speaking in the being journalist, often writing in the political sections. and then you have more of the explication of the past being written by more german historians or german speaking the moving historians. that creates a discursive structure that often separates the political part of it west this historical side. and that has a lot of implications for the discourse, because when herrera on the say something about the past that can kind of just seem as one opinion on a lot of other opinions the trauma over genocide,

new ways ripple through the generations in the maybe a pain is compounded by the biggest of colonialism and the racial inequality to create. ready today, 70 percent of commercial farming land is still owned by foreigners whitening millions. ready many descendants of gym and continuous. some of that land once belonged to the river and nominee menu. now live in poverty. jeremy's off have some money as developmental aid. want and do this reality back with negotiations don't disclose much like the genocide is becoming a distant memory. part of the colonial african experience that things have not changed. but we have to move into a national policy of reconciliation. but it is not easy when you know that your

great grandparents wealth westgate can and they have been subjected to slave labor . the suffering is absent from the memory of the station. ready we have to fed for them to be recognized this and finally, last week we showed you some unsavory image is coming out of gauze. is really soldiers cooking in the homes of palestinians. they have displaced, eating the food they stolen from those kitchens. now for the other side of that point and what passes for palestinian meals these days, this is what it looks like when you try to cook a loaf of bread using animal feet. because you have no flour. since it's ready, forces have prevented humanitarian aid from reaching you. some of the holes can still be bought. if you have the money and lots of it. whoever bought these strips of meat with cruise, cruise on the side, paid $95.00 for it. we're showing you those pictures because there are very few

journalists left working in northern godsa to tell that part of the story. so many have been killed by us, really bombs and bullets. and the few that have survived are too busy trying to find food to keep us and for the best way to stay on top of this awful story is to keep your eyes here on i, which is here. we'll see you next time i thought listening post to john. so that's kind of the you know, the company should be who name of the top most of the the top of head. also the vision is gonna then of been the, the.
