boost investment in the occupied west bank and gaza it will be revealed during a conference in bahrain highlighting the financial benefits of ending the israeli palestinian conflict palestine's prime minister has already called the plan financial blackmail and says it will probably favor israel phyllis bennis is the director of the new internationalism project of the institute for policy studies and she says his plan for peace is doomed to fail. well i think what jared kirschner is trying to do is substitute an econo piece if you will for anything remotely resembling a serious solution to the long running israeli occupation and colonization of palestinian land this will probably be the main part of the so-called deal of the century and like so many other things in the trumpet ministration and trump's own view is that money is the solution that you can buy a palestinian surrender in this case there is the statement from questionnaire that

the palestinian grandparents as he put it are destroying the future of palestinian children when of course it's the fact that palestinian children are being denied access to their land to sovereignty to freedom that these are the kinds of rights that are being denied to all palestinians and the notion that buying them off with massive investment in something it's not clear what is certainly not going to work the idea that jerusalem may or may not be talked about we already know that the from the vantage point of the trumpet ministration jerusalem is no longer on the table they took it off the table by handing it over to israel that's not likely to be changed. at least 11 people have been killed in a shoot and brazil's northern city of bell 7 gunman opened fire at a bar in a part of the city known for drug crime the bodies of 6 women and 5 men were found at the scene it's been a particularly violent weekend in brazil on saturday 5 people died in

we've had that we will prevail in this law will never take effect but banning abortion doesn't stop abortion it stops safe abortion and who this impacts is poor women and women of color across this country and what these politicians should be focused on are the real health crisis like the one here in alabama where black women are dying of cervical cancer at 6 times the rate of any other state in this country south africa's former president jacob zuma is due back in court later hoping the judges will throw out hundreds of corruption charges against him zuma is accused of fraud money laundering and russia tearing but he says it's all part of a conspiracy for media mill reports from pietermaritzburg where the case is being heard. jacob zuma is most challenging days as president involved protests like these demanding his resignation it's 15 months and zuma succumbed following months of public dissatisfaction and pressure from within his own party the african national congress at the heart of his fall from grace one hundred's of corruption

he was elected president of the party ahead of the 2009 elections which the a.n.c. won zuma then became south africa's president in 2007 zuma was charged with corruption racketeering money laundering and fraud the charges were dropped 2 years later because judges said they'd been political interference but last year prosecutors had another change of mind and the charges were reinstated zuma wants the charges dropped because of what he describes as a political conspiracy jacob zuma is due to appear at this court way it's expected his lawyers will argue that it's been more than a decade since the case against him began and it should be thrown out the former president also says there have been irregularities ahead of the trial including that he has been spied on by the government if he must put on trial it could have massive implications for the divided in seen resume retain significant support going to be train time for the a.n.c.

some members of the party will have to make a difficult decision as to whether they support the former president or not and i think knowing in looking at how divided the parties still is this will really not make their lives easier zuma says he's done nothing wrong but if found guilty could face at least 25 years in prison for me al jazeera pietermaritzburg south africa. the art of rally or making patchwork quilt has existed for centuries this tradition lives on in pakistan's far does. well it gives poor woman an opportunity to make money the quilt to become a household name in cities all over pakistan and beyond as the story. every morning these women in pakistan stargazer to queue up to kill a quarter of what they daily house or do you have a difficult day ahead looking after the elderly they're young and doing other household chores despite a hard life they still find time to make. a song and i listen and we make
