people who needed to learn over us are gora from democracy to the markets on al-jazeera. china's big brother is always watching at home and abroad. one on one east investigates how far china will go to control its citizens. on al-jazeera. this is al jazeera. again i'm b.t.w. watching the news hour live from our headquarters here in doha sixty minutes of news and comments today the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu suspends a deal with the u.n.

over african migrants just hours after announcing it on national television. a leader in the fight against apartheid but a divisive political figure afterwards we need medical. dies at the age of eighty one. the u.s. markets are rattled off to china imposes terrorists on scores of american goods in response to measures ordered by the u.s. president donald trump. also this hour at least thirty four people were killed plus dozens were injured in a gun bomb attack in nigeria with a book believed to have been responsible. for the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has suspended a deal reached with the un's refugee agency which would have seen thousands of african migrants and asylum seekers resettled in western countries now it replaced a controversial plan that would have to portage male migrants many of them asylum

seekers to third countries in africa he made the u.-turn within hours of announcing the agreement under pressure from members of his government most of the migrants affected are from eritrea and sudan. now in early january the israeli government said sixteen thousand migrants would have to leave by april or face arrest each was going to be provided with the plane tickets and three and a half thousand u.s. dollars on february the fifth the prime minister netanyahu confirmed the deportations had begun on march the fifteenth israel said it would freeze the deportations after legal questions were raised in a high court petition then on march the twenty fourth more than twenty thousand people demonstrated in tel aviv in support of the migrants that's when the plan to resettle them in the west was started stephanie decker has more from west jerusalem on the politics surrounding us and yahoo's decision in members of his own party

seem to be unhappy about this they weren't consulted at naturally bennett who's the education part of the jewish home party and that israel would become let me say exactly said a paradigm for infiltrators in this is because this is these these are asylum seekers have throughout the course of the last eight years or so been called illegal in traitors by authorities here not my purpose not seekers and that's one of the points which today was interesting that the prime minister actually started migrants in starting to now move forward and not do this mass deportation plan which had come under such criticism it was hailed the same success by the n.g.o.s by the civil society to in argue against this however they did say bush's be see how this will unfold one now in a dramatic turn i think it's safe to say it's been put on hold because of his right wing not happy about this saying that you know they need to discuss this further i

would be consulting the needs to vote on it in the cabinet. earlier i spoke to akiva eldar a senior columnist for the news website monitor under the five year agreement with the un african migrants who entered the country illegally were supposed to be resettled in western nations germany italy and canada but akiva eldar says he does not believe those countries were actually informed about the deal. we've heard already from the germans and italians that they don't nothing about such an agreement they will. review gees instead of rwanda and uganda so perhaps this is one of the reasons that he had to suspend the deal the other thing is that he again follow his base his political base when you talk about his political instincts his political allies had been caught off guard by this up until this latest development so playing to hear him is he on soaring to i think

right now and you know he's very embarrassed because on one hand he's got a ruling of the supremes quote that wants to get more information from those third parties in africa. who have denied that they have a deal with israel they are willing to take the asylum seekers and he refuse actually to reveal the agreements because broadly he knows that they're very problematic on the other hand he hates the idea that he's getting a huge hug from his enemies the human rights organizations and the israeli left perhaps there were too quick to send him their blessings for doing the right thing which is

a very left think so right now i think that he has got no idea what is going to do about it tomorrow what's your reading of how he's handled this immediate that this latest development in as much as we're being told it wasn't really discussed in any detail at a cabinet level it was only discussed amongst a small group of his very closest political allies and in the last hour or so he may. the announcement not via the normal official government channels but he did it on his facebook page yeah that's true friends will be the this kind of decision does not require a cabinet meeting it's we're looking at sixteen thousand people who will stay in israel another sixteen thousand who will be absorbed by other countries so it's not really a big deal and he has got the full authority here and the minister of interior who was part of it to make this kind of decision his critics always say the same thing

these people have been there for so long that they are in effect functioning israelis does this latest announcement firm up their legal status does it give them anything else to fall back on actually after his first statement in the press conference where he actually admitted that. he was laughing about the willingness of you under and who ground to observe the silence equals so now he cannot go back to the supreme court and tell them otherwise so they have i think that the asylum seekers and the human rights organizations are now in a much better position to fight against the government so actually he's doomed if he will deport them and he's actually work he's not able to do right now and he's doomed if you let them stay. tributes have been coming in to winnie america's

elaman della the n.t. a party campaigner who played a leading role in the battle against white minority rule in south africa she was married of course to the nation's first black president nelson mandela throughout his twenty seven years in jail and was alongside him on his release but winnie mandela was also a polarizing figure and her legacy is controversial barbara and go public back on her life. during apartheid she was known as the mother of the nation winnie mandela the former wife of nelson mandela spent years in the public eye as an anti-apartheid campaigner mine has big has been fighting for the liberation of the african people for the working how wonderfully of all the russian clubs in this country she'd been suffering from a long illness for which she spent much of this year in and out of hospital she was revered and controversial in equal measure she has been. one of the strongest women in our struggle who suffered burns. and half hearted regime.

who was in prison who was banished. who was treated very badly separated not only from her husband but from eight children as well and that you know people during her husband's twenty seven year imprisonment in robben island when he played a crucial role in directing the anti-apartheid struggle. in one thousand nine hundred ninety now so mandela was freed and the world watched as a jew i walked out of prison hand in hand but by the end of the next year when he was found guilty and fined for her involvement in the kidnapping of forced to wear to school children and the killing of a boy in a stumpy by had team of bodyguards the necklacing method in which he was burnt to death with petrol filled tires horrified south africans. in one thousand nine hundred ninety two allegations of corruption and mismanagement forced her out of

all executive positions in the n c but shortly after she was appointed as culture minister in mandela's unity government she was sacked a year later for insubordination but kept her position as a member of parliament and head of the women's league her marriage to mandela and that in one nine hundred ninety six when he however remained a strong figure in south africa's social and political circles although she faced controversy in the latter parts of her life for millions of south africans winnie mandela holds a special place her brave fight against discrimination and for equality. large crowds gathered outside winnie mandela house in soweto on the outskirts of johannesburg catherine soy was that. it's going to be a night vigil here in so whether the very heart of the struggle for liberation in many many people like dancing and singing and saying that they're just celebrating

the life of freedom and then the president cyril ramaphosa was here and he said that they really lost a giant who has left a huge legacy. looking to lean back south you know we knew my dad has been ailing for a while that the cia should be ina and out of hospital but the president said that she appears to have been doing well that's why these has so many africans unaware of the shocks they say that devastated the heartbroken she's going to be accorded a state barrier all we need mandela kept the struggle alive when i have had spent on elsom and then i was in. so many years she was a boy. outside of she was. very passionate. she was also up front of us all we got our food and we got.

used to being unfolding human rights abuses to go my guy trying to be like him can be. a very mean and leadership. she was a very controversial figure but all of these people in a way he often goes into remember how very significant. the fight against. that one human to law moved very life and for my. name is joseph is a race and gender analyst she is the author of how exceptional black women lead she joins us live here on the news hour from washington it was joan's to eva how do you think she should be remembered. she should be remembered as a bold courageous freedom fighter a woman who faced the just horrors of apartheid and faced those horrors with courage and with resolution to push through them to to fight for the freedom that

ultimately her efforts and her husband's efforts and so many others over protected period of time ultimately resulted in victory in a free thought africa corruption kidnap however she was no angel. absolutely she was well you know apartheid was not angelic ok you know i would hate to have all that she did and all that see cycle feist for the nation and for the freedom of her people reduced down to those specific events which i would argue that she herself. from italy was not proud of i guess you would say perhaps but i would argue that she cycler fights tremendously for her country a murderous government that killed and banished people for decades while the rest of the world looked the other way if that created somewhat of a very militarized approach one could argue that given the circumstances that she

faced and lived through is it that surprising at the end of the day she fought for freedom and that's exactly what she ultimately won when did she change you're going to achieve valving to being the winnie mandela that the world came to know you know she went from being the young bright twenty three very much in the shadow of nelson mandela to being somebody who didn't like being defined by being married to nelson mandela. well she was a woman who basically she had a mind of her own i mean she was a freedom fighter for many many years and of course there was that partnership that unity between herself and nelson mandela but when he was in prison for nearly thirty years she truly became the face of the anti-apartheid movement and not only was she the face of it she continued the fight on the outside not only for his

freedom but the for the freedom of her people and the freedom of her country and so she was not someone who lived her life in the shadow of anyone i would say that she was as much of a leader as much of a freedom fighter as any man including nelson mandela ok when you talk about her people i mean she was eloquent she was charming she was tough she used to talk about being the voice of her own constituency but i'm intrigued did do those people did those people who she said were constituency view themselves as being part of that constituency or did they just think they were part of a a wider constituency perhaps nelson mandela's constituency the a.n.c. constituency. you know she was part of things she was a part of all of that obviously she was someone who worked very deeply within the a.n.c. she worked in partnership with nelson mandela so you know it's hard for me to sort of construct or compartmentalize the various spaces that she touched

and that she had an impact on her life like all of our lives was an evolution but at the end of the day she definitely contributed in each one of those areas in very powerful and memorable ways and i would argue that given the amount of time that nelson mandela was imprisoned on robben island that so many people were murdered and banished and tortured and all of the horrible acts that happened under apartheid during all of that she remained steadfast in her commitment to the creation and the development and the flora shaping of a free south africa and i think it's very important that we commit to not a race thing her contribution to making that vision become reality it was june so we were there in washington thank you so much. still to cover for you here on the news hour including. protesters are killed and injured as members of

india's lowest ranking cast demonstrate against discrimination. and as the world marked world autism day we'll talk to a mother about the difficulties of raising three sons who are all autistic. and in sport australia south africa might make it worse santa will tell you the details in about thirty minutes. palestinians injured during protests say they will march to the gaza israel border again to demonstrate against israeli land confiscation seventeen people died after being shot by israeli forces who opened fire on crowds of unarmed protesters at landay rallies on friday hundreds were also injured and doctors are appealing for more medicine and supplies to treat them coming from gaza. people here in gaza are pinning a lot of hope on the so-called long march of return which is basically staying

along the border for dinnick six weeks or until may fifteenth which is actually a day the palestinians refer to as nec but look at that strophe because it is the day of the creation of the state of israel the cabman's are about five hundred to seven hundred meters away from the border fence which is just there in the background there you see some people have gone a bit further down and they are basically at the limit at the still called buffer zone about three hundred meters by israel they don't want the army doesn't want to see anyone in that area but you can see that some of the young people have actually gone defiantly a bit closer to the border now organizers and the people coming here want to make sure that this remains a peaceful nonviolent sit in many people i spoke to said you know we had several wars here in the gaza strip over the past ten years there was

a lot of violence we lost a lot of our own people we are going to try this new way and nonviolent long term protests in the hope that maybe it will change something many people will tell you that they are sort of fed up of living thanks to humanitarian handouts they want to take their own future into own hands they want to have life in the gaza strip like life anywhere else as specially they want to be able to have at least freedom of movement well as we've been hearing over the past two days or so doctors in gaza seen many of those who have experienced extremely serious injuries medical staff has not seen these kind of injuries before searching muhammad says most people were hurt in the lower body with large gaping accident which. because of the type of what it's here exclusive bullets. what and in that town the one man and one woman

the meat on his butt out in it around fifteen thousand to meet us out of it ok so here comes them is severe damage of that this will see the damage of the lives and forgive members of the artist anything and the bone george bush out as a professor of law at the university of california he's also a political analyst focusing on the arab israeli conflict he joins us from san francisco george bush are these a basically dumb dumb bullets are they legal they're illegal absolutely no question about it the use of bullets that are designed to explode within the human body on impact has been illegal under customary international law for decades at least in fact the first international pact that outlet out a lot of them was in the nineteenth century so there's absolutely no question they're illegal they're illegal when you're used in international combat against soldiers they're certainly illegal in non international conflicts such as this one

it is also important to understand that with respect to the gaza strip israel is still a an occupying power and therefore it its use of force is constrained to what's called police force it can't use the full grounds of its military power against the palestinian people it has to use the minimum force necessary to quell a disturbance like we saw on the other day from the point of your quoting a disturbance to dum-dum bullets give you a particularly builtin advantage i mean why and who would take the decision to use them. there is no justification for their use in this kind of situation were the israeli soldiers or civilians in danger of their lives then the use of lethal force would be would have been justified there is no such threat under these circumstances all of the people who were shot were on the other side of the border fence and those are simply not circumstances in which israeli lives are threatened

now the use of these kinds of bullets has been promoted for example for air marshals who are who are you know who might be required to fire in very close range and somebody to incapacitate somebody end because these bullets explode they don't penetrate very far and they wouldn't harm other passengers on an airplane or go through the fuselage and cause that decompression of the airplane but other than for circumstances like that there their use is clearly illegal there is no justification for them whatsoever so from a tactical points of view i mean ignoring the fact that there are legal for a second from a technical point of view why use them in this theater of conflict even if the people who are on the receiving end of this gunfire and we've seen the videotape literally running and walking in the of a direction. well it's hard to answer that question i mean it in a in

a sense that that requires us to probe the minds of israeli military leaders and unless they're explicit about their intentions we you know that's a that's a difficult job however we can observe that these that these kinds of weapons if indeed they're being used and we don't know with certainty yet that explosive bullets are being used the womb seems to suggest that possibility but assuming that they are being used well obviously they cause great injury they incapacitate that person not only momentarily or for a brief period of time but but quite possibly would mean them for life and over the you know over the i think the message that israel has always wanted to convey in its it is excessive use of force historically going back you know to the to the to the days of you know zionist terrorism before the foundation of the state of israel

always has been you know if you resist we are going to crush you and we are going to make you pay a very very heavy price is the whole sort of notion of long term deterrence and if you know you as a young man know that you name your leg or you may be you know unable to walk lose a limb your arm for the rest of your life that's a very different calculation for people and i think that's that's you know part of the message that israel wants to convey clearly is not enough pardon me for interrupting you but clearly there are international conventions covering the use of these bullets all the not using of these bullets has israel signed up to those conventions. well actually this is this is one that started under customary international law and not specific treaties in all nations are bound under customary international law and with regard to this one there may be ambiguity ease and customary international law that this is not an area in which there is

ambiguity there is there is there is a clear bar on the use of exploding bullets now there are. there is weaponry there is ordinance that is designed to explode on impact that miti used against material not a objects not against people and those are not b.n. sometimes date in used against people we go early but that's not we're talking not not what we're talking about under the circumstances they get in the something the facts are borne out in these these this kind of bullet is in fact being used we i don't think we have confirmation of that yet ok we'll leave that george bush out thank you very much my pleasure. fears of an all out trade war between the u.s. and china a growing up to beijing impose tariffs of up to twenty five percent on more than one hundred twenty american products now that follow the u.s. president will trump imposition of high achievers he's on foreign steel and aluminum last months adrian brown has that story from beijing. the list of u.s.

goods targeted by china is in line with what officials here proposed last month that's when president donald trump applied new levies on chinese on a million and steel imports the latest measures would affect around three billion dollars of u.s. imports but that's less than two percent of the value of u.s. trade with china from monday the chinese government began imposing additional judi's on one hundred twenty eight kinds of products the highest tariff of twenty five percent will be on u.s. pork a fifteen percent duty will apply to fruit nuts and wine but not soybean imports worth around fourteen billion dollars annually to the u.s. analysts say china's response appears measured i think the key here is targeted what they have done as a package i mean one hundred twenty eight are a rather small items but you'll notice that apart from the scrap aluminum they're mostly agricultural in areas that will that voted for trump i think china is trying

to send a very measured response last month the trumpet ministration announced a second round of trade sanctions against china a twenty five percent levy on more than fifty billion dollars of chinese annual imports the white house has not yet specified which products will be affected but targets will likely include sectors like robotics artificial intelligence and electric cars industries at the heart of the new made in china strategy chinese leaders say they don't want to trade war with the united states but won't sit back if the economy here is hurt for now though they appear to be trying to prevent tensions rising still further if it came to a trade war china would have more to lose as it exports far more to the united states than the other way around some chinese shoppers we spoke to though did not appear concerned what datable might help if the u.s.

. wants to fight a trade war i will never buy their products no foreign products japanese korean american we have our own products and i think we should give up buying american products i'm chinese i must support our own products it is not a trade war yet but the coming few weeks could determine whether one really will happen adrian brown al jazeera asia. well stock markets have been rattled too in the u.s. not just by the tariff wall but also president donald trump's targeting of online retail giant amazon gabriel elizondo reports now from the new york stock exchange. monday marked the first day of trading in april and the first day of trading in the second quarter and it was a very brutal day on wall street with the dow down more than seven hundred fifty points at one point during the day on monday before closing down four hundred fifty but it was a hit across the board as the s. and p.

and nasdaq also took hits closing down two point two and two point seven percent respectively it's really caused by two things number one is wall street very concerned about this brewing trade war between the world's two biggest economies united states and china this came after china announced they're posing tariffs against more than one hundred twenty different types of u.s. imports they announced that early monday morning here in the united states this came after the u.s. and outs similar tariffs against chinese imports to the u.s. last month so investors really worried that this trade war could signal potentially a more broader trade war throughout the world that could affect the global economy beyond that also worry about amazon and quite frankly donald trump's twitter finger over the weekend president trump tweeted that amazon the e-commerce giant was

responsible for in his words billions of dollars in losses to the u.s. postal service because of the products that amazon delivers on a daily basis from the u.s. postal service trump really signaling out amazon for criticism here and this immediately affected amazon's stock it dropped more than five percent on monday and this has ramifications for the entire stock market because amazon is the third most valuable company in the world with market capitalization of over seven hundred billion dollars it's a stock that seen it's gone up over sixty percent this year alone so when amazon takes a hit like that it affects the whiter stock market. the u.n. has condemned an attack in the northeast of nigeria that killed at least thirty four people and injured dozens more suspected fighters detonated bombs and opened fire on residents of two communities on the outskirts of. the story.

another violent day in the nine year old battle between nigeria security forces and . a familiar picture for people in the country's northeast. this is safe to strike the communities of germany and he with bombs and guns under the cover of darkness. only had gunshots we went out. with the bombs people were running into each other and the bomb killed the emergency workers were deployed to the scene hours later and started the grim task of recovery. sure. sheep team people. came to believe. them. dozens of the enjoyed ended up here there are fears that some may succumb to the severe injuries this sustained during the attack. the army issued

a statement saying it killed thirteen attackers and that if the last one soldier. has been defeated its citizens continue to leave in fear and pain. even though the war is not over the fact that the group has been significantly weakened the government tries to bruise the moral of people and even it's all soldiers by saying where we are winning the war we have defeated the enemies and so on but areality even years after the war i mean there is this claim that the war has ended used to will see that some kind of fight back from the group legs to suicide bombs what no one expected that they will be coming back so strongly fighting the government offered amnesty to the fighters it's not certain if they will take a similar offer in the past failed to work and it's even difficult now a book or army splintered and continues targeting isolated vulnerable villagers. as

people in this region mourn their dead they also wonder if and when the fighters or strike again armor did research al jazeera. still to come here on al-jazeera strength in numbers a thousand central american migrants cross into mexico on a journey that enraged the u.s. president plus. i'm rosalynn george in washington coming up a very human look at martin luther king jr. and in sport will absolutely you should try to use the word countryside also to call the united arab emirates so boston. hello again we're expecting some more snow across parts of north america we've just seen some all thanks to this system here that gallop through pretty quickly but

still gave us some fairly decent amounts of snow in places and as that plays out the way we'll see yet more but this one will give us some more widespread snow and some heavy snow some places could see around thirty centimeters of snow from this system eventually on cheese day and wednesday will begin to pull away towards the east but still giving us some heavy falls as it does say for the south where of course it's far too warm for her still see some snow here will see a lot of rain for the west generally a little quieter weather wise here but seattle will still be seeing yet more rain and over the mountains we'll see some snow further south and we've got our trading system here that's gradually sinking its way southwards bringing some of us some showers including force in jamaica is gradually working its way eastwards though and for the leeward islands it does look pretty wet as we head through wednesday some of the showers will be very very heavy there's also some very heavy showers over south america at the moment to this stretching from the northeast around forty days and then all the way back down down towards the southern parts of brazil as well so around rio it looks really quite wet for the south is warm ascension up at

egyptians without any discrimination whoever renewed their trust in me and gave me their vote isn't different from those who did not egypt is for all egyptians as long as the differences do not corrupt the nation. essentially unopposed sisi had been hoping for a high voter turnout the only way to know if egyptians approve of his leadership the election commission announced forty one percent of the sixty million eligible voters cast their ballots that's lower than the turnout during the two thousand and fourteen election that gave sisi his first term. that there has. won twenty one million. five thousand on three hundred eighty seven votes which represents ninety seven percent of the votes and many a may have been me in the. egyptians voted over a three day period but many polling stations tended to look like this just a trickle of people streaming in state media try to increase voter turnout by

telling people if they don't head to the polls they can be punished with a fine yet. some egyptians say they received food payments and other incentives to vote it wasn't a competition there were no public debates and sisi was virtually guaranteed reelection because his only opponent. supported him was even part of the campaign to get sisi reelected other well known and popular contenders withdrew their names saying they faced intimidation they were either detained disqualified or forced to abandon their campaigns they said the vote was a charade and called for a boycott and judging by the number of people who went out to vote many may have heeded that call renee or dead. protesters have fought again with security forces in indian administered kashmir after curfews were lifted the authorities at close schools and blocked the internet following

a woman and while men can be more than me we couldn't figure out any solution except to come here and that said take a look at the caravan organizers hope that the sheer numbers will keep them safe from the cartels which often kill and extort migrants and member of thirty's let them stay or pass through so far they've been granted free passage that's infuriated u.s. president donald trump who tweeted mexico is doing very little if not nothing stopping people from flowing into mexico through their southern border and then into the u.s. that on the whole is not true over the last four years mexico has drastically tightened up its southern border with the help of funding from the u.s. usually migrants accord in a web of patrols and checkpoints there have been many accusations of human rights abuses the tolerance for caravans like this one is exception not the rule something mexican foreign minister luis fee that i highlighted on trump's preferred
