oh yeah yeah. how. you. read them or were you given them. i believe that this was a lie and i like. my name right. there how how do you know you mature at that i meet you i don't run i do that's why we have here you got it and every. one that is that we. do it how do we. want to discuss with the counselors. she's eighteen and pregnant with her first charge. she's had to for i want to cut. into. wiley like. hayden

while you talk to. him so that i will show. them a. question in my. own . house. but not. have. come with. me and we're going to. go to hell. it would have been a coal mine there might be a lot of us going to. suffer. you know when i. are

not at all like him. in some local thing to see he may have not said she had a lot of time or other hannah to have loved but honestly the little girl who had been a day barely getting up and talk about it on thought can make a hell of a aladin and not really clearly we could talk a little hasn't asked me out. here big people be so long my teacher might be behind some. of the day. i'm so bored but i just feel like. why do you think somaliland have the highest percentage when it comes to f.e.m. globally it takes time to leave the cult her grandmother does and mother does they still hold on with the suturing and if g.m.

is special the grandmother sat very very close as they are they will look if there was a lady who had three girls she came to me at the hospital i told her to go back to the home and see i did the operation she is very killer for describing mother when the guests are going to authorities she goes after the she listen as the most of their. oh because when the careless of course i see their smallness with their with how do you want to because it is like a drop this big to the who she cried she said all my daughter the good saddle that you need to like the boys what you did you did nothing do you think that eventually people will abandon this eventually but to do is take.

as i watch these young people at a wedding reception i wonder how many of the men would be willing to marry an uncut woman in the future. for st a local journalist posted an afghan message on social media i was curious to know why i did the facebook update of where you said some men believe after jam deduces a woman's sexual desire they say this increases her appeal what made you write this i want to talk because it's problem for the old goddess. to suggest a down plate of the goddess a human unarm that worked when you would get my do you want to my family have cut

their own cut and cut ok are you married know you want to be learned someone was cut or non-corrupt the cup. who you really. should target someone. doesn't he and his brother going to. my car. in liverpool you're all about a one hundred us are going to buy them. nothing it's all the way in which to. i am a woman. i come from a culture that also practices that i am not cut. i know other woman based on what other women have told me that if there is no there is no good in it if they tell you this is hurting us this is literally killing off and we need to stop we did then listen. to the camilla. and. the doesn't listen.

i'm surprised that a young man should feel so strongly about holding on to this tradition when so harmful if f.g.s. mr brand changing men's attitudes will be essential. to have not done university hospital collects detailed information on trends in female cutting. medicare only since two thousand and two all antenatal patients are asked what kind of cuts have had and if they intend to cut their doctors. they were kind enough to. say this is rare to see a woman who is i would love my daughter. in two thousand and two hundred ninety

seven percent a female patient had undergone the phony cut. most intended the thing for the daughters. but that has changed there's a groove going into type. and the return to the other having entire one to which they calls. it a brisk and cut still tired one is the one that this is a little bit the tip but tied to the kind of half of the trips we know or cuts doesn't have any benefits. i just. talked to my current doctor shukri introduces me to a friend who's at the hospital on a postnatal liver she gave birth order days ago oh so there was a very interesting burst of that sort of stuff of. the midwife and know the harmful effects of for only cutting from passing experience. was something else all

along but is at that time. so if you've paid when you want to you're in it i can't. and chloe could come in my for that if secondly your coworker while you can you talk. the festival over the way i feel and that sixteen year is the minister we should secondly. i feel a lot of pain bad they. don't get to see this problem this is filled with tears and there's some cycle communication i feel and i feel that tackle the question will you marry. to go for the cut and never fuck that to me forcing fed if it is to meet. did you feel any resentment towards your mother and your grandmother yeah but remember she should.

get. as i'm leaving somalia i feel privileged to have met a woman who share the stories with me. but i'm overcome with emotion as i realize factually every woman here has been caught. with it. i've always known about the numbers and the facts and the figures but when you come face to face to all woman who've gone through it it seems like the woman who have to endorse this and the children who have to endorse this you go through cycles of pain. for what. has happened to so many women and girls like my mom. i'm so happy that she. i don't know why should the didn't come off but i'm so grateful. because my

life would have been sol much different because to feel good. over don't go through the pit. to go through without and then not to be able to do something that it's a it's a god given thing to peek. you can't pee. and then your comments today show and then when you have to have sex you don't enjoy it and it's like painful. and then you have to give birth and then it just continues. i'm so grateful that. i didn't go through without and when i meet. this woman who had to go through it.

i've come to kenya to find out more about a totally different culture. where over forty tribes here with diverse cultures and traditions. the majority don't practice the cuts at all. but to several including the must die cutting has been a centuries old tradition until recently. today meeting twenty eight year old nice and getting. myself managed to totally write the kate f.e.m. and have village of my young not. traditionally for the messiah cutting is a rite of passage marking the transition from girlhood to womanhood usually between

the ages of mine and fourteen. the ritual involves some most of you talk of cutting . we lost his release because of what i used to see again even if they're trying to be strong but you can see that definitely in a lot of other leading. nice with the only guy on her village who refused to be cut. out of my classmates who are from this community all of them. and they didn't they were not able to get they have to find a husband for you. so right now almost all of them have three four five children and a. jumble. what's your name but in this hour what a beautiful name have they been the second thought. no they have been fact i'm

saved how do you feel about not being caught. so what would you like to do when you grow up. thank you and. as a result of nice's determination to end f.e.m. no young girl has been cut here since two thousand and twelve. the my thigh and a patriarchal society. and i first had to persuade the young warriors calderon's to help and the practice. recruiting douglas the leader of them runs was a beginning. where did you do nice to make them change their opinion about the lesson was their first doesn't work cept my walk the resistance was there from all over but then again i had them have a treat because when i go to them i'll go with someone like that blair so i'll make sure that he talks before i talk so what did you do to persuade them around in the

community. it was very hard for us to conform to the boys because be say that. because even god is not so clumsy it's she's not a woman then if we can even example of some of the dead that we have seen in the community they say ok it's true and let's forget it i think it took more than five years for them just to accept it now we decided to come up with some time until we came up and let the parade go by said. the pentagon from this community and we want them to upgrade because. we bless them then we look at the same cows that we celebrate hold together but we didn't cut so that's what we've come up with. douglas bring some of his friends more rounds to meet me. yeah we mix of moderate

to more than ok and i might have more and do you know what actually happens when i cut you you'll get along it will go your hair and i'm very sorry and i would look movie yeah when you're loving anyone i go. i don't i am. a more i don't know. that i haven't gone down but i will you know when you know i want to be. around a graphic video over to you know go with a knife. you know what i did that. we were. going to do think.

we're going to do you have a daughter. how would you feel if someone said she needed to be cut and that we were going. well i think it was one of the powerful tools we've been using when we address the issues of female genital mutilation and there was another wherry persuasive infanticide for the young warriors. when you use here. as we talk and talk about six you see most of the mortar rounds out of most of the men they say if they sleep with a company the gun is very sweet insects now that's what also contains most of them what i have to say we don't need. but. meeting the messiah in a minute gives me hope. if one woman can change attitudes in one village

perhaps it's time to possible to change entire countries. a tamil journalist in search of a missing colleague stop sudden nothing to bring her story to the public. in sri lanka press freedoms are under threat. and some stories can only be told by those who will not compromise on the truth. news from just one part of the viewfinder asia series on al-jazeera. news is happening faster than ever before from different places from different people and you need to be part of back you need to be able to reach people wherever they are and that means being across all social media platforms this is where our audience lives as well as in front of a t.v.

reached our doorstep saw in rich as a weird legs all attempts to contradict something it's. the north west of kenya it's home to a tribe named a pocket of practiced f.g. and for centuries as an act of perfection. i'm here to meet them to not just on who's devoted her life to ending if she am in her home county of west. she's married with two young children. i say twenty eight says she's one of the few women a fair age in this county who hasn't been caught. mine was really a matter of escape what happen is that i witnessed steeds of the cut that kids are not allowed to witness as

a young girl is only eleven years old and this community engine is performing two stages this one first trains which is just a slate cut. yeah that's done in public with the presence of men and women and young girls and young boys and this here yes we see it but they just you know. just a minute if the first day that women are taken too and they got it taken to a secluded place like a bush so we sneaked in and what i just saw on the second stage was so shocking my cousin was laying down there in a pool no blood yes and women were pinning her down and had to toss a lock up completely you know there's a one of us who really butchering like you know how do you cut pieces of meat i was expecting it's not to do this just that yeah but she was really doing this you know yes with a knife and she was screaming but ask claims were being covered by the women singing and you know the trying to to to cover her screams and she was helpless

what was left to their horse just like red flesh yes i still can't believe that this is something that we're still debating about. honestly. it was this traumatic experience that made dr refused to become a motivator to how to set up a charity to help and of g.m. . who are heading to the village of sandwich with one hundred sixty girls are preparing for an attorney divide to buffer ceremony. we just saw me to be there because intelligible to us and to me all that they did to him. and. the trip to sandwich from them to love house takes two and a half hours through mountain passes on bumpy roads. to school and this is good. for the wellcome when we get makes it worse or.

in the pocket culture cutting traditionally involves a celebration in which the whole community takes part. the girls are to have sing their dances for the alternatives harmony. is real life come in it was beautiful i don't expect to see this the focus committed love and seeing and hearing we wanted people to know that we love our culture we know we love every bit of it only but from the cut yes it was this way the feel of that is certainly not important here the teachers are from the same community. the girls receive four days of lessons before their graduation day. one of the no no i. don't know about. today they're learning exactly what the f.

jam involved and the health complications using models. about the madonna no no no no no no no no. no led nowhere that you were. here i am not going to deliver someone to become us to. you know go on a good burma get an open. i mean you want to what or when you know when you want to look good on. earth you can all agree. when you have been cats you put into seclusion for one month whereby your thought how to become a good ways how to treat your husband how to cook so we do the opposite we bring the girls in here we teach them. their children's rights work you know we did them about health implications of their g.m. there so it's basically same back same thing with the car to but a different teaching because the one does goes to be important people in the society other than that my third thing i want them to learn her colleagues have had to work hard to change the attitudes of parents. in the pocket community

a cut girls can bring significant economic advantage to a poor family. a girl is made of a man brings diary into in terms of couse and i'll tell you that it for this community the play of praise is quite high especially the girl is young and that most people tend to that it has to older men because they bring a good number of culls as much as many of articles because of poverty situation they're tending to their girls when they're still young and then they married them off and they get there is quick quick quick quick quick well so much of the girl worse foreign cut girl you can actually be given away at a ferrari place million years for they might even give you away for free. because they just want to get rid of your body and you know.

go back to mars graduation the girls will sing and dance to some composed by looking musician lucky to have a pass on a reason for wanting to and. a swat team you think is done. because done clement in the. style of. no one helped or my meeting again i got a leg but i've got a knee he will gnaw. a lot better in the. journey he said to. me you know. what it was and i was your sister clementine clementine how old was she living or. going to a government on the ball up more local morale.

had been illegal in kenya since two thousand and one. that around here the law has been largely ineffective. and. you suggest when sixty girls they got around this village and the villages around. most of them are still being cut i mean we have not been able to reach out to everybody this is a big big big lie and you know it's a big county. i find out from dawn to know that's one of her younger sisters run away to be cut with friends. i know down to less years but i wonder if the older generation a mother and grandmother supported her sister's decision she takes me to meet.

bonnie. thank you so that will mean you are on my. team good luck that. i never get more. vocal that i need the. down you probably know we're a little bubble with them at the barn you on the menu committee. when you were beginning we wanted out. of the you know the for not. looking for the. most. we're. not going to buy you know i'm going to get really a man of the love for me so she wrote her thing in the forest really.

so you were against it because of the law but in your time if there was a good. one last year well. what they've. done. i've heard. he. broke the law and i want you to know the meaning. i want i'm gonna dig the well you need you out on. the bed those home a letter that a good little girl got a commercial. meeting them till of crime other makes me appreciate why the key to ending f. jamming with is keeping girls in school. that way parents don't have to rely on a dowry to help support them their elders educated girls can pay for their own cows

. today the time to write of passes is being held in the market square and some research. hundreds of people from many different religious have come to with this ok yes folks say.

that was done i am. not handed. a find out that some medical staff made great some sacrifices to be here today that . other many of your friends here doesn't or do today have one on me a number of it. is just you hear no one else from the village. so that means they would become. politico again without it are you here today are. there not to. handle that man down and let him hit them in the messenger. for a new here just along with. let's go and join the others. with another go who catches my eye soon. barely even last impression on me.

the presence of dignitaries here is a testament to them till a success it means i'll turn to try to process has a stamp of approval of important eldest into community. the vast majority of pocket people are christian and the graduation ceremony with the blessing. patterns and elders stand behind the girls that belong to their villages. yes yes yes. na yeah. it was wonderful and touching to see all the community leaders and the parents especially the father standing around the young girls symbolically it was like saying we have your back we have your back with support you and with

a forty decision not to be cut it was wonderful to see. just wonderful. i wanted to meet. as i live in the early release a girl i know to starting a family she ran away from home after her father began beating her mother believing she was the responsible for their futile to be cut. you know this get away against susan. of the early when you need. the. money diminish and. live in all who don't live.

under the. law. again a more nimble more molong up with only one dan are going to go in late so your family have shandor pushed their way bowling only to meet the burden on him what do you say to young girls who are about to attend the alternative rite of passage or do said to them any what have i done i look really one eric i don't know me or many dylan look at pollini. as you would do in your band when you know committed the cow was cute was a little less than the generally illegal and near iran again when the man. on the blogs again we're going to add they did indeed x. y.

while touring the devastation caused by the california wildfires donald trump claimed the cia had not assessed anything yet that it was too early but that the judgment would come soon we're going to come up with a report as to what we think the overall impact was and who caused it and who did it the state department earlier released this statement recent reports indicating that the u.s. government has made a final conclusion are inaccurate there remain numerous unanswered questions with respect to the murder of mr chaudry the state department will continue to seek all relevant facts and we will do that while maintaining the important strategic relationship between the united states and saudi arabia but according to several reports not only has the cia reached a conclusion it has high confidence in its assessment but because it was killed by order of the saudi crown prince the cia reached out assessment having examined communication intercepts and analyzing the power structure of saudi arabia but there's still no direct evidence confirming mohamed bin salman ordered the hit and

may attempt to use a. evidence of the crown prince's culpability and to show g.'s murder as leverage on yemen the blockade of qatar or the incarceration of dissidents even as some in congress see the murder of jamal khashoggi as a moment to reevaluate the entire relationship between saudi arabia and the us others see it more as an opportunity to clip the wings of a volatile crown prince while still relying on him to advance the trumpet ministrations agenda in the middle east she had returned to the al-jazeera washington an aid convoy has left kuwait and is heading for yemen the united nations says the war there has pushed some eight point four million people to the brink of starvation strikes have resumed over data the main port for food and medical supplies mohammed atta reports now from nearby djibouti. after a brief pause in fighting a few days ago the besieged city of her days again in flames whole thing fighters us a top target that industrial complex on the outskirts with rockets and artillery because it was a base for the pro-government alliance backed by so did the u.s.
