a large percentage of companies listed on the chinese exchange suspended trading. implementing severe limits on stock sales. the selloff also spread to other parts of the asia pacific region. markets in australia, hong kong, israel declined. so did markets in the u.s. scott heidler has more on the latest. >> continuing the slide markets in china closed down, the biggest index the shanghai, have seen a sell off in the last three weeks nearly $3.2 trillion. something else we have seen continuing more companies are taking their stocks off the market, not allowing them to be traded. a few more hundred were taken

off the markets did. now central government has reacted to what's been going on. they say that state controlled enterprises, say certain mechanisms that were put in place 50 central government over the weekend. these statements today these commitments today the market selloff is still continuing. >> scaild inscott heidler in beijing. today the u.s. addressed the selloff and the impact it could have stateside. >> the administration, particularly the state department but also economic officials here at the white house do closely monitor activity on global financial markets. we do live at an age where our global financial markets are interconnected and interrelated and activity we do see in one market could have an impact on

another market. so that's something we carefully monitor. >> some are unphased by china's stock slide they say american institutions have very small investment in china so pension is and other funds will be very little affected. jim, good morning to you good to see you. is this irrational selling as the chinese government would like people to think or is it a rational adjustment to the being tech bubble in the late '90s? >> it is panic most pan ig is irrational. what happens antonio you have a collapse and people get scared and others are forced to sell because they get margin calls. it needs on itself. i started mine yesterday and if they go down some more they'll be going down some more as well.

usually if you buy panic you'll be okay. >> american stock indices were down substantially today. what will this have effect on americans and their 401(k)s? >> very little. very few americans own chinese very few chinese own chinese shares. less than 10% of the chinese public have investment, i have investments this and am make more. >> i know the stock markets in china are not nearly as important even to the chinese economy as the stock markets are here in the u.s. what consequences could the plunge mean for chinese economy and then for world economy if the chinese economy keeps growing at a very you know slower rate? >> well, actually it's good that china's grows at a slower rate. that way you don't have

overheating and dislocation. i'm all for it. things would calm down, you wouldn't have so much debt building up and not as much happening. people are not going to bias many cars or suits or anything else but again it shouldn't turn into too big an effect other than some slowing in some sectors because it is not that important to china or the world. >> the chinese government like good communists, they are used to control every aspect of the economy. is there any chance they will be able to stabilize things. >> the market would stabilize itself. if i were any government i'd stay out and let the market find its natural bottom. if it has an artificial bottom it's not nearly as stable. if people have to dump they dump, goes back into strong hands, people know what they're doing and then market can start over again.

but listen, i'm not the chinese government, i can't tell them what to do. >> which crisis is worse from a global standpoint, the chinese crisis or the be greece crisis. >> the chinese. the greek economy is tiny in the context of the euro and it's even steinyer in the context of europe and in the context of the world economy. chinese affected by the stock market, that's a fair amount of people even though it's small in the context of china. >> even though you said it's a small percentage of chinese who own stocks, 80% of the stocks are owned by individual investors much more than in the west where it's mostly institutional investors. if these people see their investments evaporating and the economy starting to slow could there be political upheaval? >> there may be some political upheaval, some people may lose their job here there or the

other place but is the government going to be affected? no no no. certainly the government doing a lot of things, again i don't think they should do anything but the government stepping in and the chinese press is full of the fact that the government is trying to do something othe people will be happy about that even though i'm not. >> jim rogers good to have you with us and your insights. thanks. >> thank you antonio. >> meanwhile, anxiety might be high around tomorrow's opening bell at the new york stock exchange because a computer glitch forced the exchange to be halted for three hours. not a cyber attack or system hack. trading resumed less than a half hour before the closing bell. by the time the final bell rang the exchange fell 260 points. this morning a computer problem forced united airlines to ground flights for nearly 2 hours.

and they disappear. >> in testimony before two senate committees, comey and a top justice department official outlined the growing danger of going dark. the increasing use of commercially available encryption to thwart legal searches and authorized wiretaps. >> we are creating site zones where dangerous criminals and operatives can operate and go dark. >> real tyke communication vie phone calls texts and instant message apps and data at rest, locked in devices such as mobile phones laptops and hard drives. >> these encryptdevices are become being the equivalent of closets and safes that can never be opened even when a judge has expressly authorized a search for evidence inside them. >> if we intercept data in motion between two encrypted devices or across an encrypted

mobile messaging app and it's strongly encrypted we can't break that. people feel there is some way the fbi can break that encryption we do not. that is why this is an important issue. >> encryption is an important tool for individuals to protect their personal private data and they say the government should never have a master key. >> if there is a legal requirement from a law enforcement agency to access any of the individual user's data it is not something that is granted by definition. it goes through a very thorough leg process review before we would grant access. >> but the obama administration insists it's not seeking a back door into encryption software. that's a highly controversy idea adamantly opposed by many prominent experts in the tech community who say undermining encryption would only make cyber security worse and prove a

bonanza for criminals and hackers. >> what we hope is that the companies themselves retain the ability to access that information and provide that information to us through lawful court orders. >> jamie mcintire. al jazeera the pentagon. >> be greece is expected to present a plan to euro zone leaders. some exec overhauls could be implementas early as next week. meanwhile, greece's embattled prime minister alexis tsipras faced intensive scrutiny. jonah hull reports. >> after the brinksmanship of refusal and referendum in greece greece. alexis tsipras provided his program to strass strassburg.

the swelling armies of greece's sick and poor. he hasn't had a job for two years, but he does have a medical condition. >> if i did not have this place i would fight for as long as i could stand off my feet and then i would jump off the acropolis. >> but how does a charity survive when the givers could no longer afford to give. >> we are very afraid because if next week this city doesn't continue they can not have access to their money they won't have money they won't have destiny food items to bring. so it will collapse. >> bettina is a german doctor. >> i'm feeling very greek after 25 years here in greece. >> whether a deal is struck to save greece and its place in the euro zone will depend largely on german leadership and german money.

>> i'm sure that mrs. merkel and all the german government knows very well that the people are really bad they surely know and many germans have visited here and i'm quite sure they're going to try the best. >> but in brussels in berlin as in life there are few guarantees. jonah hull, al jazeera athens. >> before we move on we want to show you how much pressure greek prime minister alexis tsipras was under at today's euro zone meeting. the form he prime minister of belgium got very emotional giving him a lecture. >> i know it's difficult for a leftist, but it has to be done because of 800,000 people civil service. let's propose to end the privileges in your country. the privileges of the sip owners, the privilege of the

military, the privileges in your country, privileges of the greek islands and the privileges not to forget of the political parties. the privileges of the political parties who receive everyday loans and money from public banks who are in fact bankrupt. >> gee verostadt also said european leaders were sleepwalking towards a grexit. >> last year's war in gaza, the u.s. and arab countries pledged more than $5 billion to rebuild the gaza strip but not much of that money has been received. on this anniversary of the war paul brennan reports on what what was and still is costly on every sense. >> the war which lasted 50 days was costly in terms of human life and economic impacts.

more than 2300 residents of gaza were killed. the structural damage in gaza is estimated at nearly $8 billion. and israel says the operation cost it $2.5 billion. but a year on and the israeli government insists the war was justified and successful. >> translator: hamas has suffered the ahardest blow since the day it was established. we closely follow events in the south of descream and israel and prepare to respond with full force when we are asked to do so. >> in a scathing editor comment this week, the left leaning hadix here, lessons had not been learned, victims had been forgotten. israel says it had two main

goals for what it called operation protective edge. first, was to stop the rockets which were being fired into israel by armed groups from gaza. the second was to destroy gaza's network of tunnels. efraim khan is a diplomat. >> war keeping civilians many syrians without any do you believe. tens of thousands of civilians in the gaza strip lost their home had to find some solution during the cold winter there until now only a few houses were rebuilt. it is a major problem that we don't like we didn't want it but we had no other choice.

>> israel and hamas are actively negotiating for a lasting ceasefire but there is deep mistrust on both sides less than 12 months after the israeli forces withdrew. it is perhaps too soon for objective assessment of the long term impact of the war. paul brennan al jazeera jerusalem. >> the growing power of the bds movement. why the antiisraeli investment and boycott campaign is growing in the u.s. and around the world. and boko haram makes an offer to the nigerian government. the question now: will officials negotiate?

>> boko haram has reportedly offered to free the 219 school girls held captive for more than a year but only if the nigerian government disagrees to release

leaders held by the group. made by former president goodluck jonathan. muhammadu buhari held a conference with the locals. >> the sisters are among the more than 200 girls kidnapped by boko haram from their school in chibok in northern nigeria last year. boko haram says it forced some of the girls to convert to islam and plear marry fighters. president muhammadu buhari met some of the school girls parents to show that he's committed to bringing them home. >> in his regime this boko haram will come to an end sooner or later.

even their graves, he will trade some of the people even if they are killed, we will know the last story about our daughters from general buhari. >> many were too afraid to stay and fled from the town. some have moved here to the settlement in the outskirts of the capital abuja. yakubu mata has brought heartache with limb. his niece is still missing. he says the government must help rebuild chibok. >> we need security first. the security of our lives have to be assured at home. >> in office less than two months. president buhari makes it clear that stopping boko haram is his administration's top priority. his former be government was

anan anonymous source, that they might be willing to release the school girls in exchange for prisoners held by the government. we heard reports of these offers before during the presidency of goodluck jonathan. there is no organized structure to negotiate with as of now. last year negotiation is were headed by a man claiming to represent the group who later turned out to be a farce. so there's little hope right now at least in the current format and context of these girls being brought home by negotiations. >> even if there were someone to negotiate with and a presidential advisor has said the government would be willing to talk does the president really want to? because buhari, there was an attempted assassination by boko haram on buhari, he campaigned saying he was going to destroy this group.

>> buhari exainld and campaigned and was elected largely on his plans to destroy this group. i don't think anyone could blame him for unwillingness to negotiate with boko haram. nigeria after all is a country where kidnapping is endemic and many families have to negotiate releases of their relatives every day but is he a former military pan. like you said, boko haram actually tried to assassinate the president last year and his strategy or the strategy that he's proposed so far is one of very conventional warfare approach. >> right, now there's going to be a whole regional army that's going to fight boko haram. do you think that's going to be affected? >> it could be and might be the best hope going forward. there has been a 98 nascent

military force -- >> there's been attacks in niger cameroon and in chad. the neighbors are in trouble because of boko haram as well. >> that was boko haram's previous iteration, in which it was copying the i.s.i.l. model of terrorism to gain and start holding its own territory and even declare a caliphate. it started spreading across regions, across borders in the kanori ethnic region. >> right. >> today we see a kind of of scaling-back its own territory. >> scaling be bag maybe territory but like you said there have been a number of attacks recently. are these attacks you think a december operation to try to get more negotiating power if -- a desperation to try to get more negotiating power? maybe they have not been as december plated as people thought. >> it could be a loophole right now as the new president is

forming his government that they're exploiting or taking advantage of for the purpose of negotiation. but there are three at least ream reasons why we see the sudden escalation. why there's a new president in town and they want to hit him hard before he can stand up. two, they've adapted their strategy to the conventional counterinsurgency techniques of the government to retreat from holding territory towards more asymmetric warfare that relies on sleeper terror cells more in the model of al qaeda. and the ramadan month of bloodshed, i.s.i.l. has called upon and in nigeria where you actually have a terrorist group that has formally pledged formally

teenage are, i thought i wanted to move to israel and join the israeli army and any criticism of israel i took as kind of a personal attack. but slowly i started to learn about palestinians. i've learned that there are palestinians living in the land before the zionist set lers came and i learned about the occupation in 1948 and around that time i started to apply some of the jewish values that i learned from my family, from my community, from the jewish community. i started to apply them to what i was seeing and what i was learning about. so one of those values is love your neighbor as yourself. if we look at what happened just a year ago in gaza when there were over 2,000 palestinians killed over 500 children. so i asked myself what does it mean to apply that value? and i would say first of all love your neighbor as yourself, you have to love yourself and say i do, i love myself, saying

this injustice must stop. in terms of loving your neighbor i think what that means is standing up for palestinian human rights for justice and equality. and that is what boycott investment are doing. >> i know you've also said that it's in the best interest of the israelis. if that is the case why is it so opposed by israelis israeli government and most of itsthe united states? >> yeah, i would say that i think that that is very short sighted. i think that unfortunately people are kind of coming from a place of fear. but i would say that the only thing that's going to bring about real safety and security for palestinians, and for israelis is justice and equality for both palestinians and israelis. >> now hillary clinton recent spoke out against the bds movement and i can't imagine that any of the republican

candidates support it. congress inserted antibds language in legislation. doesn't look like it's getting any traction in the u.s. without that, can your movement have much of an effect? >> it's interesting. what i would say about it is yes, there's movement coming from the prime minister netanyahu, from israel, and right wing forces in the united states institutions, some politicians even as you mentioned who are attacking and trying to demonize the boycott and divestment movement which is work for equality and human rights. what i would say about that is it's increasingly out of touch where the general american public is and especially where democrats are in this country. if you look at the polling one of the things you see about democrats in particular is that many democrats especially young people people of color are increasingly becoming critical

of israeli policies and what they -- >> the truth is there isn't much of an arab boycott on israel anymore. there are huge american businesses that do business in israel. i know the boycotts and die he vest imcampaign behind bring about the end of apartheid. >> just like israel where it took decades and decades for those tactics for that movement to grow and for it actually to have an impact i would say that the same thing is happening here. that the movement is growing as you mentioned earlier in the program, ucc, united nations church of christ, voted 80% overwhelmingly to divest from companies, be we have grown from 140,000 members and supporters to 200,000. we have grown from 40 chapters

to over 60 chapters. i think we're seeing this ground swell, this grond swell. it's going to stay a while it's not happening fast enough for people in gaza. for the 100,000 that are internally displaced in gaza, for the 120,000 who aren't connected to the water system, it's not fast enough but i would say that it is growing and this is way it works and i would encourage your viewers to join us because that's how change happens. >> rabbi joseph berman, thank you for joining us. nigeria is taking the -- liberia soldiers headed to the area to restore order demonstrators marched in the capital to demand better protection for berber
