his left wing rival fernando had died as head of sunday's vote according to a new poll also narrow could secure enough votes to avoid a runoff later this month a latin america tell you see a new man has more now on his unlikely rise to prominence. four years ago. a punk isman from an obscure ultra right wing party was considered anything but a presidential contender but a long running political and economic crisis in brazil has transformed him from an eccentric into a potential savior to millions of brazilians tired of crime corruption and liberal views no you don't reduce violence with flowers to be clear weapons don't cause war and flowers don't guarantee peace are the views of bullets are not a former army captain they can stand out from the rest he had buyers brazil's and chile's former dictatorships condones torture and supports arming ordinary citizens he proposes obligatory birth control for poor people whose offspring he thinks

wouldn't make good citizens i think that he walks on a very thin line of fascism because even though even though he's not outspoken fascists he does mobilize fascist sentiments in the brazilian society. the sonata says gays should be beaten into turning straight and that most women deserve lower salaries than men and should stay home to care for their children. but bulls are not all has tapped into the fears and frustrations of brazilians in antiglobalization anti establishment stance not unlike donald trump his supporters joyfully mimic bulls are not as favorite gestures yesterday with the gesture of combat against the criminals and corruption that has our country in tatters. but bullets are not a strongest support comes from here. brazil's large and influential christian evangelical churches they transcend racial and social lines an echo his belief that

fundamental christian values are under attack especially from left wing parties even though she doesn't like his six just views brenda that says. main reason is because the family values the values of procreation between men and women because we are losing those values and as elsewhere here in the slums of rio de janeiro also how do you how to show no mercy against crime has won him applause murder rates here in brazil have reached record levels and so many people don't mind when he says things like the only good criminal is a dead criminal nor are they frightened when he promises to put members of the military in his cabinet. his running mate is in fact a retired general who does not rule out military intervention if necessary and yet nothing including a near fatal assassination attempt that hasn't allowed him to campaign for almost a month can seem to diminish both lead in the race to become brazil's next

hour every day that passes out there in the mediterranean sea there are vulnerable people then lives possibly in danger and while the aquarius a stuck here in the port of mass say they can't help. it's disheartening to see that the loss of life that scene and the humanitarian crisis are not at the forefront of european politicians priorities and that's something that we call on our european countries to take into account fifteen thousand people have drowned in the mediterranean in the past four years most have been searching desperately for many other people take for granted a safe place to call home somewhere to build a life unless the aquarius is given new registration documents to sail soon the crew fear that many more lives will be needlessly lost buckler al-jazeera say. now in india at least twenty three endangered asiatic lions have been killed by a rare virus over the past month animals died from canine distemper virus and give
