and molly have ordered was to comes to leave the countries saying they haven't done enough to protect them against attacks. but you end up mid. the secure to cause a strategy to secure this region 11 years ago has failed. today's faculty, we see an absence of states in areas where terrorism flourishes the well to collated assets of the strategy have not come at the scale or up the pace that was sort this, but this is rising property, inequality and neglect. probably unable to, i'm groups to recruit fighters and sees control it many regions organizers him to attempt to come on the approach to curbing attacks. we must show statistics, that's what's up a g i ship by an applicant on needs assessment. aligning our content to those inputs with the clinton is prior to the recent statistics to follows by of course in africa is escalate. the united fisher says it's causing terrorism related

to that's why they quoted globally in frontier 22 percent jump about the previous years records and the most documented in 7 years. countries of this number. but the 2 countries didn't attend the meeting. they are on day. you sanctions imposed of them and if it goes in 20212222. it's not clear how in the opposite was. resolutions meant that this high level meeting could impact these countries already going it alone in the walk, asked on groups how many degrees ologist data to have that set for me, elizabeth put on them for this half of you. so you can always keep up to date on our website, which is 0 dot com. stay with us. listening post is coming up next week to look at the world's top business stories. how much of those plans going to cost

is the rebuilding going to cost and who pays for the global markets and economies to construction and small businesses. we have just started seeing in stations come down in many costs. well, to understand how it affects daily 9 outline forth how big a 12 level is labeled, the insecure counting the cost on al jazeera. it was an iranian military attack that was made for tv. so was the, is randy response. but what will all this lead to, apart from taking the eyes of the world off of goss terminology matters, the new york times knows. and the language it is using on gaza is a story onto itself. plus believers in can lead to their graves by a television show where, where the regular, the,

it's been a week now since more than $300.00 iranian missiles and drones were launched israel's way. but despite the initial alarm, the rush to the bomb shelters, the doomsday scenarios, and all the original war this failed to materialize. instead, israel conducted a limited counter attack on friday, on military targets in is for hon, which was similar to a runs strategic approach. the vast majority of those are ronnie and projectiles were shot down by israel or its allies. the damage was minimal, 0 is ready, fatalities, and outcome. the military ex for its concluded was by design, is realized. response also have more to do with spectacle than substance because the nothing yahoo government had the optics to consider don't act and risk losing face or retaliate when it's primary back or the us had called for a strength at least publicly. whatever happens next or runs attack,

and the way it has been characterized in the western media may have gone or israel some more support abroad. which could prove crucial in this battle of perceptions as is where the forces continue to slaughter, palestinians engulf any kind of a battle between your own and as well as not only a battle between 2 armed militaries or 2 sets of government officials issuing competing or conflicting statements, it's also the bottle of nerves, the bottle for information superiority for international support and sympathy. when our news feeds, which are on that night, with the images of military fireworks in the skies over, there was reason to fear the worst. depending on who's in front of the story, ron's airborne, a saw, was either a reckless act of aggression that risk triggering a wider war, firing

a 100 percent ballistic. nissan is a dangerous escalation. for a deliberate act of restraint. it only might have to know how to do it proved to be a highly performative exercise onto the wrong part that resulted in no, is rarely fatalities have more to do with messaging than anything else and have to leave warmongers disappointed. when do you want in perspective, it was a chance to put on a spectacle to really get that science and show that they engage in unprecedented direct action, i guess as well. but it was mainly a message because we didn't have the mass casualty on israel's park. it was an opportunity to put out the message that he was able to defend itself. 99 percent of missiles were shot down so from both sides that could claim victory. not only they, ronnie and strike was well telegraphed in advance. it was clearly coordinated in

a fashion that israel and its allies could defend effectively. so the point was not destruction. the point was a political message that they ron ends were sending to try to re establish concerns against israel. israel's response to a ron's attack took 6 days to get to was limit, largely symbolic targeting and air base near is not the city itself, nor the nuclear plants nearby that failed to satisfy is really hard. lines like security minister gets them are banned. who fried? i would call that link while the as rios cheerleaders, like the british prime minister, offered their approved. and we have condemned your wrongs reckless and dangerous biologists. missiles against it's right on saturday and is wrong. so it'd be, has the wrong to self defense, which was consistent with what had come out of the white house and the many western governments in the aftermath of a runs initial attack, that the,

as long that grew up public was the address. so let's be straight. given the scale of this attack, ron's intent was clearly to cause significant disruption and casualties. the us called the ron's actions unprecedented. even though they had been preceded by israel's bombing of an iranian consumer building in the syrian capital damascus on april. first, the killed to iranian generals, among others, it was a position the u. k. also to that, when challenged proved to be a hard sell black and white. but what britain to the hostile nation from what comes to us, we would take it. we would, we would take the survey stroll actually and around would say that that's what that is. but even those well aware iran has influence beyond its borders and uses it's embassies and consulates. as cover when arming is regional allies have said the is really strike in damascus was dangerous. we prevent here, i must be very,

very critically about this, right? it was one of those since ventures that these are these call me think only because it is possible. there was hardly a debate about the consequences of the prize about the day after. i mean, it explains it. we say damaging the military capability of a rod officer by law whole i'm us and the football team before mccomb before the over that even though i think that's what should always been should on what is this rubbish by the end of the day it's about showing cool, the is very much are the is really, james boned the parents. we'd never be a chief through us as a nation's and say, capabilities are not damaged by those us as a nation. so we are left only with the need to show to ron is often portrayed in western media as a malign actor. there is a very rarely

a recognition that, like most other states, iran has legitimate security concerns and at times has responded with restraint. over the past few months, israel had killed multiple senior iranian ministry officials in syria. israel has conducted corporate operations against iranian nuclear facilities against iranian infrastructure, kills iranian sciences iranian commanders on iranian sword. so this is not a one sided fights, and you rarely see the western media trying to striking balance and distribution or allocating a blame for the current situation. so what was really behind the ron's theatricals, but ultimately the limited active will be a ronnie and military could have launched more of its drones and miss files through one of its proxy such as has bala in 11 all right. next door to is instead did not

only send almost all of them from iran, the broadcast that some of those launch, given me is released and they're american and british allies, 3 hours to prepare for them and ultimately take most of the missiles down. but the lights in that and yahoo government, in israel, the leaders of the islamic republic had been playing to a domestic audience, the drones and miss silas, most of which the iranians knew would never land. where the vehicles for the iran at the moment is in a quite fragile state. internally, there has been for the last 2 or 3 years, quite a lot of protest against the, for a terry and actions of the same as the regime. and iran is very aware of the ways in which it's getting a broiled and then other war would actually in danger it's on stability. so there is a very major calculation about its own, a former abilities in the ways in which iran has respond,

that there are 2 narratives that going on in your own right. the one is that this was a historic strike. and parts of the on human population appeared receptive to, particularly in the aftermath of the serial bombing. at the same time, mostly you, all new ones are not in favor of war. there focuses on their daily lives, the economic conditions. and there's been a renewed crack down on the islamic, had scar from you on the mandatory nature of it. and that's because very much undermine any funding around the flag effect from a new conflict with his or 3 days after ron launched it's quantity attack on the history of this story of performative warfare and shadow diplomacy descended into the observed when reports surfaced that the us had contacted the, as long as the republican, asking it to allow israel to conduct a symbolic count, to return to quote unquote, save face. 72 hours later,

israel kit the base near discipline israel's interceptors protected yours from the secret is equally absurd. was this youtube posted online by the netanyahu government trumpeting the intersection of a ron's missiles and declaring that is real, which has spent 6 months old with her reading gossip. and some muslim population acted to protect some of these loans, totally assigns. it is so ridiculous. i mean, really probably gotten that can go as far as it wishes, but is relative not to take the holy places and he run visit the target they holy place is what is violating severely for decades. the freedom of full folk sheep, the most of them's mainly palestinians from get there when it's the, the time it's about the. busy may take a one, a little sympathy backs to is res,

north 20th and you know so much, much is right, and the permanent visit is what he's going to lose. or the simplest is, is where we go for, for an estate k, as it seems now. as it eventually did, 6 days later, a greater value to is reopen any sympathy or runs attacks may have produced is the distraction. it creates away from the horrific stories and still coming out of cost of so many more palestinian bodies getting on air. including from the hospital, now shift corpses found with high b, 2 still attached images of 7 school children slaughtered on a playground. we'll cross that would have got far more coverage than they did. if news outlets were not trans fixed by this new or on it. but the challenge genic story, the for all of the fireworks, is not what it appeared to be. for the past 6 months,

the new york times as coverage of israel's post october 7th, the salt on garza has taken a pummeling from critics both inside and outside the paper. mean actually, robbie is here with the latest example of to report this post beat by the investigative new side, the intercept, levine, the memo that editors at the times sent the stuff back in november and which has been regularly updated since the memo is effectively a style guide for the coverage of israel post october 7th, assault on gaza. there's nothing unusual about such style guides. it's standard practice across news organizations. what makes this memo controversial is some of the dom and ology it was the papers journalist against using tons of photos should the guidance says avoid using the phrase ok by tennessee when describing palestinian land, which is where as ministry is according to international, no occupying as one time source interviewed by being deceptive or good. that amounts to quote, taking the occupation out of the coverage when it is in fact,

the actual quote of the conflict. the memo also instruct stuff to steal kid of the to them. but if you jacobs for pots of gaza that are home to palestinians, displaced to doing t v as was, these are people who are refugees. these terms occupied territories and rescue jacobs artificial language used by the united nations and international and deals. it's unusually for news organizations to restrict the use of this terminology. in this response to beam, does that support a dime spokesperson said that issue in guidance like this is to ensure accuracy consistency. a nuance in how we called with the news back in february, another intercept investigation into a widely discredited time support about the quote webinar ization of leave by home, us on october 7th, to be considerably, to send in the times as newsroom over the papers guys have coverage clearly that discontent is stay brewing and still leaking out to the intercept. thanks man. last

year we aired a disturbing story out of 10 year about the dangers of religious broadcasting tele vangelis. and how difficult that content can be to regulate. we are re broadcasting it now because the tele vangelis at the heart of the story. busy mackenzie has been formally charged with the murder of $191.00 people, mackenzie allegedly led those victims his followers to their dest. by telling them the world was coming to an end. among the questions being asked in the aftermath, should the authorities can use media, regulators have done more to stop mackenzie's doomsday preachings from being broadcast. and if so, how would that square with the right constitutionally protected in, can you do freedom of speech and religion? those are questions that require urgent answer is because tell evangelism is on the rise in kenya, where 85 percent of the population is christian. but let's me post nick me. we're

head now from the canyon post on the tragedy that has come to be known as the shack . a hold of a mass of with just less millions, a coastal town in east, and can you and are hitting inland to the shuck, ahold of 1st. in march, news broke that a woman had killed her children here in order to please god when the story book joseph jerry was one of the 1st journalists that see, we will 1st quote here by the police. were informed that the 2 bodies, 2 bodies of children about it and decided to instead to the phone bodies all over musk lives over today to more than 350 bodies. and counting have been exempt. that will lead to the 1st by 10 evangelists name pul, mackenzie, useful to have told them that the bill was in and that in order to reach card,

they would have to starve themselves to death. there's children, then women, then men. mackenzie said he would follow it, but he never did. so tell me about for mackenzie, what do we know about him? initially was the taxi dividing money andy and did he formed his own minister. now quote, good news, international ministries, the judge, according to the advisor who 1st went in, was just a good charge made of course, happen until 2015 the. now when it became intended funding is to have a pass, the message started changing. he started introducing they showed the new with the prophecies, and all these prophecies was tested live on television. now not that one, michael pulled up on my danish, telling me about, mackenzie's follows those that followed him into this 1st. that came from fun. why? because again, they had to follow as oliver. so presumably many of those people would never have

heard of poor mackenzie written, not for his tv channel. correct? there's still an estimated $600.00 of poor mackenzie's for those who are still missing and check on the 1st. one of them is a woman named pamela nicholas. single. she's from bung. gomez. it's accounts in northwest kenya, the opposite end of the country and 80000 kilometers from yeah. we've managed to find his son. he's living and not robi, so i'm off to the capital to meet him. to evangelism is the use of media to communicate christianity the 10 evangelists in kenya often claimed that they can perform miracles by watching, deliver spiritual, communing and guaranteed prosperity. typically, in exchange for donations, what's it made some till eventually, very well and influential. for some viewers, often the most valuable,

so the promise being directly into the homes of divine intervention, 5 is cost is previously resistible. for mackenzie is what we would refer to as a carrier. is magic the sovereignty to the no, no, no problem is a good problem. when i, pennsylvania, because in order to be a tv event, this order to hold the attention of a audience no matter how big or small you have to have a particular kind of christmas. comparing to a free can tell evangelist, you can tell that the rest of the frequently bundle is tend to go with the prosperity way and pull them. mckenzie goes the mystical way. why not? sequoia now with mystery kicks in, then you know somebody is believed to have inflammation or news or power that other people don't top. and so that's the whole county of mystical element is what really

endeared him to a lot of people coming in. what kind of thing? his son watches she boost, it says that she would spend her days watching mackenzie's times t v channel, and was captivated by his simmons that promised spiritual feeling. she thought he could help her daughter who was suffering from mental health issues. this time last year, she bruce is mother his sister, and her 3 year old daughter left time to join the attend evangelist, or mostly to define them. i be the main reason my mother followed. mackenzie's preaching was my older sisters illness and during his tv sermons, mackenzie would often use the bible and a specific oil to heal people. so my mother thought you might be able to help my sister. so that was her main motivation. if it wasn't for his tv station, my mother never would have heard of someone like mckenzie, by the side of my mind when we're done. and when religion comes under the agency of

media, then media transforms. that's religion. and so perhaps for people like pull mckenzie media tended to give them some kind of reputation and could create the ability to for like cause the 1000000 delay a little tongue. who didn't mean watch jimmy po, mackenzie is message with a 1st started out as what we would consider an instance of really just diversity, right? because it doesn't just start off as an end of time. we then see it moving into a space of tv. is it new kitchen is evil and then later on we see it moving into a space of danger. but give me shit i need. i'm in the country. oh yeah. ok. as the site the hollinger. yeah. now it's difficult to predict what the vacation will be, because not all diverse innovations of main seemed religion will become div yet, and the old deviant innovations of

a mainstream religion will become deigned to this. but sometimes they do. the question now is, at what point should the kenyan authorities have intervene and could they have done so well, upholding mackenzie's constitutional right to freedom of thought and religion. the communications authority is the party responsible for regulating full cost media in the country. this past april, it's suspended mackenzie's tv channel, but only off to the check, a whole story head broke. and even then it was mostly for administrative non compliance, little of the content it with you broke the rules. i asked the director general how his organization monitors this kind of content. we use a system that controls the information. but when you have 320 to be sessions for you to make sense of that content knowledge, we, how do we, the, somebody has to sit down and listen to or watch to be able to conclude the natural

that particular content. that's why the complaint mechanism is much better if somebody to see something unbecoming then the able to report. then we can now go specifically to track down that specific book custom problem. i see with that mechanism is that you are relying on view of feedback, but often the views of these channels are the people that are being radicalized and you not see that as an issue in the system. it's really a problem, but then our responsibility is not to regulate the content of fuel electric to electrical nature unless the soul or get them to facilitate the content that we looked at. we did not see a direct link with them. i do not think that yes, they may not be a direct link to check a whole lot, but that that problem method content needs and miracles and the prosperity preaching. yeah. do not think that needs to be regulated. you know, the trouble with the issues of religion on faith is exactly that faith. and that's why when you allow freedom of religion is to just allow people to make sense of

life the way they see best. so the risk of going ahead for to that to end up being a policeman, let me people's crunches. but that balance has to be struck. wasn't really big southern for us who mackenzie is now in jail and faces multiple charges. but the media environment in which he thrived and the constitutional rights that protected him remains the same. kenya is 85 percent christian, and 10 evangelists wheeled enormous influence. the politicians wanting to stay in power, unlikely to challenge the hedge and many of these to the positives and the armies of faithful followers. even if that leaves an untold number of valuable people at risk. so him was, i talked to him to go to god, but it will begin to my lead. i left nairobi from a wendy to search for my mother. when i got there, i found one of mackenzie's followers who had been rescued and they told me they had seen my mother and my sister. my sister and

a child had been tied up until they died and were buried. having seen all this, my mother ran deep into the forest. i've been trying to find her ever since. but to this day, nothing the and finally of this past week, the world's most elaborate election process got underway. indians and there are more than 950000000 eligible voters with the casting ballots over the next 6 weeks . prime minister, no rend remote, he and his party, the b j. p are considered a lock to win and historic 3rd term. t opposition. leaders are in jail, many others have been forced into the b, j,
