hello welcome to another look at the international forecast we have got a little more cloud into southern parts of china at the moment some big and bulky storms brewing up here but not quite as widespread not quite as wet as it has been recently hong kong with the on shore winds drifting in from the south china seas we'll still see some wet weather for a monday 31 celsius here she'd be a little dry one would hope as we go on into cheesily but the show is still not too far away heavy downpours extend across india china as one would expect but some wet weather extending there across into the goal is well signs of the monsoon rains nothing a little further north which now but they are about a week behind further north we've seen some violent storms effect in the far north east of india these pictures coming out to try pure just to the east of bangladesh

still one poll this weekend puts the party down at 12 percent that is the worst rating the of the party has had in the polls since the opinion polls began in germany and then consider this thought that when the party decided to go into coalition government with the end of it with anger merkel last year in march of last year many people said they thought that it was better to put germany's interests above party interests the problem is that the opinion polls show that many people do not support this party and it has been losing votes hand over fist for many many years so when the leadership of this party is decided upon revenue policies the person who goes on to become leader will decide upon they have to answer one very tricky question do they think it's better to pull out of a grand coalition with angela merkel to try and pursue a different policy or do they stay in merkel's government knowing that each day

that goes by their opinion poll ratings fall further away that's the dilemma the social democrats face right now. pope francis has asked for forgiveness for the mistreatment of roma people during a trip to remain yeah the pontiff apologized for discrimination they've suffered across europe it follows comments by its leaders in terry a midsummer tale salvini that he will close italy's roma camps roma are the biggest ethnic minority in europe with a population of up to 6000000 people a cruise ship in venice has collided with a tourist boat injuring at least 4 people when he says say the ship was coming into dock when it crashed into the wharf and then the smaller box the accident happened on a busy thorough fair that needs to st mark's square. us present donald trump says britain should walk away from the e.u. and be prepared to leave with a no deal breaks it isn't a just comment in a controversial lead up to a 3 day visit to the u.k.

this is what sudan's military leaders don't want journalists or the wider world to see. a scene with echoes of the era of deposed president omar bashir. the army which had earlier promised to protect the protest is says the sit in outside the military headquarters and khartoum is a danger to the state and now comes another warning. that we must firmly stand up to the ongoing chaos and build a true state as for the civil state the protesters are demanding to be truly a civil and rule with no individual is above it it must be built on the rule of law it must be ruled by law and no one is above the law if this chaos continues it won't be a civil state it will be anarchy. protesters accuse the rapid support forces headed by general how meet the of carrying out saturday's crackdown

that it should. not continue to operate its heavy water or a nuclear reactor all of these things all of these up positions are still in force and so it certainly is worth considering that while the rhetoric may be softening there isn't any substantial change in u.s. policy regarding iran. algeria transitional government says it's canceling july's presidential election it's a move protesters have been demanding for weeks after the removal of president of the as his would defeat his government the longtime leader was forced to step down last month and police have arrested several people for corruption he was forced to stand down in april israeli forces of enter the mosque compound in occupied east jerusalem they used pepper spray and detained a number of palestinians who were attending prayers at the mosque israeli forces had a large number of settlers with them when they entered the compounds pope francis

al-jazeera the listening post is up next stay with us. in the philippines the black market for gold is with hundreds of millions but not everybody is reaping the rewards to sell them paying the ultimate price when i went east investigates why people like dying for go on al-jazeera. u.s. officials charged week you think sound posh with violators as an option sorry cases 270 here's a question i asked my permission to oh so just before of just about every question what is whistle blowing was a spine. hello i'm richard gilbert and you're at the listening post here are some of the media stories that we're covering this week the u.s. department of justice raises the stakes in its case against wiki leaks is julian assange john trial or is american journalism is real and the documentation of

palestinian memory the archives it keeps under lock and key beijing versus washington many american companies have been established in china and then very profitable and trade wars turn into anchor wars and. some other hunger games fasting and furious for ramadan 7 weeks ago when julian assange of wiki leaks was dragged out of that embassy in london headed for possible extradition to the united states the site's editor christian crabs and told us the legal charges waiting for him in the u.s. were just the tip of the iceberg that there would be more coming and last week he was proven correct u.s. prosecutors have expanded the indictment against the sanj by another 17 counts is maximum jail term has jumped from 5 years to 175 years and the u.s. department of justice is going after him under a different law and now the espionage act that law has been used against

whistleblowers before wiki leaks source chelsea manning included but never against a publisher the alarm bells include. from mainstream media organizations that fear the press that such a prosecution would set have been going off ever since the a sanch case isn't really about him or wiki leaks anymore it has implications serious ones for journalists just about everywhere our starting point this week is washington d.c. . this indictment all 37 pages and 18 charges in it is the u.s. department of justice putting its cards on the table laying out its should julian assange the founder of wiki leaks having been expelled from the ecuadorian embassy in london be extradited to the united states then he will be tried under the espionage act it is ironic that the charges also serve as a different kind of indictment is he a criminal or easy

a journalist of all those journalists and news outlets all the alleged experts and legal analysts who initially argued that the case against the sand was his to fight alone so you really you really think we all say we are the journalist you think we have it wrong and that he is actually not a pariah we should be praising him and that there were no implications for more conventional news organizations because the real indictment provides primary facie evidence to the contrary for about 5 decades it's been well understood since the pentagon papers case that the u.s. constitution and specifically the 1st amendment of the constitution protects the receipt and publication of government secrets and this is the 1st time the government has brought a charge under the $917.00 world war one era espionage act which is supposed to cover spying not disclosing information to journalists it's the 1st time that the government has brought charges under the espionage act based exclusively on the

receipt and publication of government secrets this would foreclose and in fact obstruct all kinds of journalism. throughout the united states and from other countries in the world there is no legally meaningful difference between the work that wiki leaks in gage did and the work that the new york times or the washington post engaged in and in fact we know this to be true because president barack obama's administration declined to pursue a prosecution against wiki leaks back in 2013 they were faced with something called the new york times' problem which was if they prosecuted wiki leaks then they would essentially be saying that they had the authority to pursue and prosecute a reporter or a news editor at the new york times. when the department of justice announced the indictment it held a closed door briefing for reporters on the record but off camera the head of the department's national security division was widely quoted on julia sandra's

journalistic credentials the department takes seriously the role of journalists in our democracy he said it is not and never has been the department's policy to target them for reporting but julian assange is no journalist the question about whether to earn their silence the journalist or not is irrelevant the 1st amendment does not a stow upon journalists a certain set of rights they bestow everybody those rights whether they call themselves a journalist or not luckily we live in a country where the government does not license journalists and i think everyone can agree that donald trump shouldn't be the one deciding who is a journalist and who isn't and the d.o.j. has highlighted a narrow set of facts that distinguish julian assange and wiki leaks from traditional responsible journalists. and those include be a legit agreement to crack a government password and the irresponsible publication of the names of human

sources neither of those things are activities that journalists would typically. however the indictment includes charges that relate to the solicitation the receipt and the publication of classified information and those are things that good national security reporters do every day. the use of the espionage act by the department of justice galvanized media outlets alarmed at the implications not for julian assange and for themselves the washington post called the case a blueprint for making journalists into felons the new york times editorial board said the indictment aims at the heart of the 1st amendment and the guardian's former editor called the charges a grave threat to free media all of that pushback felt like too little too late julian assange has been treated like a pariah by those same news outlets take the new york times in 2010 the times the

u.k.'s guardian and germany's there should be legal all collaborated with wiki leaks resulting in the publication of the iraq war locke's it was big news but on day 2 of that story the times ran a lengthy profile piece on a sandwich describing him as imperious dictatorial saying he was given to delusional grand jury it was an odd way to treat a collaborator on one of the papers biggest stories in decades. and one essential later sought refuge in the ecuadorian embassy in london saying he feared for his freedom the times as well as the guardian failed in their editorials to come to his defense the sexual assault allegations in sweden may have affected their thinking but anyone familiar with that case and the numerous irregularities in the prosecution's handling of it would have to be suspicious of the motives at play and even now with all the a sanj indictments out there those news outlets are clearly

more concerned with the possible legal precedents affecting them than they are about the fate of their one time source news. you know we're going to see sions that have reacted to this with alarm have done so with a full appreciation of the signal that this indictment sounds to us you can be critical of julian assange but there may be many good reasons to take issue with the way that assad has conducted himself and the way that wiki leaks has released information to the public but the charges brought against him in this indictment sweep much more broadly into the realm of typical journalistic practice if media organizations can do it all over again i would suggest that they go back to 2010 when the grand jury was 1st and paneled against wiki leaks and they speak out loudly against the obama administration pursuing this dissident media organization all of the substantial leak of documents for because what was happening back then

was laying the groundwork for investigations that could target more traditional media organizations whether they were based in the united states or outside of the united states. the rise of wiki leaks is attributable not only to the advent of technology but also to changes in u.s. government policy. since the $911.00 attacks in 2001 the american defense and intelligence establishment have gone on a classification binge in the name of national security more and more material field reports assessments interagency communications the kind that used to be available to the public have now been classified an organization like wiki leaks that makes no secret that it's in the business of stealing secrets has plenty to work with and there's a market out there millions of clicks to be had that news outlets are well aware of and the american authorities are to. what they are essentially trying to do here is

change that dynamic they are saying we're going to prosecute julius onj for publishing classified secrets but you know we may not stop there that our court systems have this precedent and then can be used against other news organizations and this is why many people are saying that this is really just a stalking horse for the trump administration to go after other journalists and without the receipt and publication of classified information without the free flow of that information to the public many of the most important national security stories of the past 5 decades including the pentagon papers but also including torture of post 911 i think nassar villains after 911 all these stories could not have been written without legal protection. for reporters accessing classified information. and occasionally publishing.

discussing other media stories that are on our radar this week with one of our producers marcella. marcella this past wednesday we saw a trade war the one between the u.s. and china turned into a television spectacle and the actors involved weren't just moderating this debate they were in fact debating so let's start with the channel's involved. yes well the debate pitted an anchor for fox's business channel trish regan against lucian of china's state owned english language broadcaster c g t m 4 weeks these 2 had been trading tweets about tariffs trade wars and technology eventually regan challenging you to a live show down the format was far from journalistic with these 2 presenters are going in effect on behalf of their respective governments in washington and beijing how do american businesses operate in china is there

a risk for having their property their ideas their hard work you have to ask american businesses whether they want to come to china or whether they find coming to china and cooperating with chinese businesses has not been profitable or not and they will they will tell you their answers as far as i understand many american companies have been established in china and the very profitable and the great so you have 2 anchors are doing a surrogate spokespeople for their respective governments how did this program go down in china before the debate the spokesperson for china's foreign ministry big event asking everyone to watch it because you know in china we have a saying the truth becomes clearer through debates it was a rare opportunity to have beijing position on an ongoing trade dispute broadcast on an american channel you ssion was an obvious choice for the chinese side since she's a reputation for being scornful of western media coverage on china now that the audiences get anything out of it soft to say the debate went on for 60 minutes and

reagan and knew had nothing much to add on the trade wars so what's already been reported but it'll be interesting and maybe a bit disturbing to see if this kind of debates network versus network grows more common ok thanks for some. turning now to a story about memory our knowledge of the past is produced and kept hidden in a place where history and its narration is highly contested israel and palestine for years material that could reveal details about israel's treatment of palestinians has been sealed inside the country state and military archives under the pretext of security or privacy more than 98 percent of those documents are classified they're under lock and key it's a form of censorship that has been criticized not just by palestinians but by the former chief archivist of israel as well historians and journalists say the policy

of censoring material in the archives exposes the deep insecurities that israel has about its past with archivists acting as they gatekeepers of history for palestinians it's part of a wider trend of cultural or racial and historical denial that beginning before 1948 has gone hand in hand with the regular theft and appropriation of not just their land but of their story the listening post often now on the silencing of palestinian history in israel's archives. the palestinian displaced dispersed and new rating the past is a constant struggle which is by design because sealed in israel occupies the library a hidden palestinian story entire chapters of history that were looted from palestinian institutions and. after the palestinian people were expelled from their

homes israeli forces came in and quite methodically proceeded to seize all of the contents in their houses it was done in such a way that to this day we don't have a complete idea of what items were taken. documents are scattered in so many places some in the israeli archives in jerusalem some at the national library many of these boxes haven't been catalogued to this day there is often no possibility for researchers to have access to the left the how all of the archives in israel are really very much founded on they re sure of palestinians every single israeli attack on palestinians has usually targeted an archive this happened in 1948 and it also in 1902 when the israelis invaded lebanon and targeted institute of palestine studies one of the reasons that they're

threatening is because there really our record of palestinian social life and palestine more broadly you have women with a welcome call there are important items like the personal papers of palestinian leaders and intellectuals like the 2nd library in jerusalem considered one of the most important palestinian private libraries then you have palestinian lawyers whose entire offices and files were seized. to this day if you go to the archives you'll find there's a palestinian lawyers category which i find strange palestinians lawyers these are very private documents the fact that they have been taken away is a sign of contempt for palestinian history it's an attempt to suggest palestinians have no history no documents no belongings well imo who does the home. israel of law theft the anyone can access the state archives the most sensitive material can

be censored for up to 70 years but in practice the state can and have restricted indefinitely anything it decides is damaging to its national security and israeli historian one othella has spent 20 years trawling the archives uncovering truths of previously unseen footage and photographs seized as far back as the 1930. 2017 she made a film about the last palestinian history called looted and hidden. over the years felons found historical material that has been sealed decades. and israel's military archives she discovered films from the era of palestinian revolutionary thin emma and photos shot by one of the founders of palestinian photo journalism i thought us. sellar also uncovered aerial photos taken by the

jewish militia the hagana of palestinian villages before they were destroyed and repopulated in 1948. the hagana decided to photograph all the palestinian villages from the air this material would later be used for the conquest and rule of these places and their people however when we look at the photos with the historic perspective we have today their meaning can flip so to speak and they can reveal the history of those who were conquered someone once asked me if i wasn't concerned that these materials might be closed off after i'd asked them to be opened and indeed the material has been reclassified when i went back to the archive a few years later i was told the photos do not exist in ok i mean. it's not just that material offensive hidden from the outside once inside the archive origin the rights were interpreted to fit

a different narrative and never tell home again when i started working with material from the archive i saw photos with comments and notes written on them by the censors in archivists for example palestinians are described as terrorists as gangs seeing all of that taught me about how the materials go through a process of rewriting to aid or benefit design is narrative so the colonial operators that starts with the plunder and looting continues with colonial control and management other than your colonial of a man that if you let the role the archives play in reshaping history is under the control of political masters israel's military archives is managed by the defense ministry its state archive by the prime minister's office. before stepping down last year israel's my senior archivist yakov love of egg criticize not only the lack of independence but also the state's tendency to censor material under the

guise of security no the victor kind to speak to us for the story however in a revealing report summing up his time as chief archivist he wrote the vast majority of material the thiel i will never be opened. according to the israeli n.g.o.s lack of out of the $14800000.00 files held by israel's state and military archives less than 2 percent are accessible to the public that includes restricted material that could expose israelis to uncomfortable truths about their history like war crimes perpetrated against palestinians have been minimal israel is terrified of the contents of its own archives and doesn't want its history to be exposed take one of the most important examples of censored material the cover costs a massacre in 1956 many scholars argue that israel used to cover costs and massacre

to force those palestinians who had stayed on their land to flee i believe there were direct orders from the government for the massacre to take place so as long as the state keeps censoring these documents it means it's trying to hide the past to prevent it from being part of the present and the future. other on this one. who with a lot to remember and who have made to forget is an expression of power. erasing the archival record denies palestinians the right to write their past and to connect it to their present but israel does not have a monopoly over history. in the occupied west bank a major project is underway by the palestine museum to collect and digitize hundreds of thousands of items of historical significance. in the face of continuing historical denial palestinians are finding other ways to preserve collective memory archival. to really record.

these histories and stories has been from the very beginning part of the palestinian struggle for memory and to a certain extent for liberation there is no single authoritative palestinian archive that may be a blessing in disguise because the more voices and the more multiplicity we have i think all of those things are sources of richness not poverty and the host have a taste i don't think that palestinian history should be deprived of documents and evidence it is important to return the material to the owners so that it won't be me someone with privilege and access who writes the palestinians history but rather palestinian researchers themselves israeli society must learn to respect acknowledge and understand palestinian society and its history because without that there is no future for this case and. finally

program it's the latest sign of a softening stance between the 2 countries which have been trading threats for weeks but sweet in switzerland as you can see pompei added that the u.s. won't shy away from confronting what he calls iranian aggression. we're prepared we're prepared to engage in a conversation with no preconditions we're ready to sit down with them but the american effort to fundamentally. reverse the my line activity of this islamic republic this revolutionary force is going to continue well just days ago iran's president hassan rouhani said talks aren't impossible if some important things happen 1st. whenever the u.s. stops its cruelty against our nation put aside the cruel sanctions stands up for their commitments to return to the negotiating table which they left themselves the

road is not closed but that the road is open i get out of that attack. if the u.s. put aside cruelty in its policies returns to justice or returns to law iranian nation will keep the road open for you it is in your own hands to show in practice that you do not want to continue your past cruelties and crimes will speak the same bus ravi into herat in just a moment 1st over to washington and rosalind jordan rosalind pompei o has really been one of the hardliners on iran so is this some sort of softening by the way off the white house's position on iran. well it is certainly a softening in the rhetoric and our viewers should remember that this is the same person who just in the past month said that the countries that had been given a waiver to purchase iranian oil would no longer be able to purchase or oil from iran and that any country that would try to buy oil from iran could then face u.s.

sanctions this is also someone who was very front when it came to the decision to put the islamic revolutionary guard corps i.r.g.c. on the u.s. government's foreign terrorist organization list you know that's a very big target because it's a government entity that has been put on the sanctions list not just a group such as al qaida or isis so there you don't see any practical change in u.s. policy when it comes to tara so i think it's fair to say that at least this is a softening of the rhetoric given that there is global concern about some sort of military conflict between the u.s. and iran all rights are rosalyn in jordan with the faith from washington thank you now over to sampras ravi who's joining us from iran's capital because we do have reaction is a now from iranian officials. that's exactly right in the

past hour we've heard from the foreign ministry the foreign ministry spokesman a bus most of the issued a statement that was circulated across their official channels let me read to you what exactly it says the for the islamic republic of iran a wordplay and expressing it in agenda with new words is not the foundation for practical actions for iran the basis is the united states altering its approach and practical behavior towards iran but mr pompei was emphasis on the continuation of maximum pressure on iran shows it is the same long running old approach that needs to be revised so the message here is that for the united states talk is cheap but for iran the sanctions have been costly so the question now is will mr pompei of those offer of no preconditions to new talks will they take hold with leaders here in iran and the answer to that is probably not there is an enormous trust gap

between to iran and washington and that was something the foreign minister jove odds are it hinted at in an interview with an american news outlet that was recorded before mr pompei issued his remarks let's take a listen to some of what he said somebody like me because talking is the continuation of the process of pressure he's imposing pressure this may work in the real estate market it does not work in the big big hit on the last experience was not ready optimistic and does not provide an optimistic. perspective for a future agreement so this is what i believe is happening to the international community that is people think twice before they talk to the united states because because they know that what they agreed today may not hold modern.

now for those leaders of countries in the region or iranians iranian civilians who may want the united states and iran to sit down and have a conversation if we were to take an optimistic view of this then we could say that both sides have softened their position in recent weeks and no longer marching towards the brink of actual conflict of war they are rich reaching back to a position of a war of words the rhetoric remains strong but what many iranian leaders here in the capital will be asking themselves is if we were to enter into talks with the united states again what would those talks be about really we've seen iranian leaders say over and over again that they will not renegotiate the nuclear deal and they will not negotiate on things like their self defense strategy which includes missiles and their strategic depth and involvement in countries where they are allied like syria and iraq so really what iran's leaders will be thinking to themselves is why negotiate again with the united states when

a we cannot trust what deals we strike with washington and b. what more is there to discuss all right thank you. algeria's constitutional council has. a presidential election nearly all the candidates who put themselves forward for the job for the top job could not register because of pressure from protesters who have been demanding more reforms the removal of politicians linked to former president abdelaziz beautifully because governments so beautifully was pushed out of power after mass protests the 82 year old was algeria's longest serving president the protests began in february when he announced his bid to run for a 5th term many thought he was unfit to run he dreadfully been seen in public since having a stroke in 2013 by march 11th the president was forced to reverse his reelection bid he promised reforms and named a new prime minister. was forced to step down in april under pressure from

protesters and the army the july 4th election date was announced with a vote now postponed it will be up to the interim president. to set a new date. is a professor of media studies at cats are university he says jury and have little tolerance for delays and cancellations by the interim president's. the president about to do now to around the elections and to have a new president elected he failed so no he has to continue the it is like an extension of his cadmus he's 90 days in order to you know to organize the next elections but the question is you have millions of put this thing in the streets for every friday now it's the 15th right you are going to the world to 6 you for this 100 days so the issue here has been salah has to listen to the protesters you know they have to get out of that eminence of the president did the president the

government and they did they have to have a new council to organize these elections and that means you know we will we have to have a new election you know. and like it to be persons or a committee of 3 or 4 persons you know to take over and prepared these elections this is very important because we have the actual government who we've been and been do we did is in a way that the algerians will go to vote for it and your piece of it is really forces have entered the in moscow compound in occupied east jerusalem they used pepper spray and they detained a number of palestinians who were inside attending prayers a large group of israeli settlers also went inside the mosque alongside the israeli military harry faso joining us from occupied east jerusalem will talk about what's happening behind you in a moment but 1st what are you hearing about the situation in light of the forces

and settlers entering the compound and israelis marching through arab and muslim quarters. yes this is the jerusalem day when especially ultra nationalists religious nationalist israeli jews celebrate what took place in 167 years really victory in the east to. the seizure and since then the occupation of east jerusalem but it's also the last couple of days of ramadan and by tradition during that period the oxen must come down known as the temple mount to jews would be known accessible to non muslims and the information that we've been getting last month was that the police had decided not to allow jews to go in on this particular jerusalem day because of the sensitivities of those a high court appeal against that and the court ruled in favor of the police being allowed to make that decision but in the event the word went round inside the alexa most compound this morning that jews were going to be allowed in and at that point

a protest broke out the israeli forces say that a stones and chairs were thrown the islamic walk the chest which operates in accordance with the jordanian government and manages the compound it says that some $400.00 israeli security forces personnel came in quell that protest and then allowed up to $1200.00 jews to come in the works itself is saying that this is unacceptable it's saying that the israeli government is being dragged into this position by extremist elements and it's certainly an on typical thing to happen that and the at the end of ramadan they would allow in a substantial number of numbers than just freshly fairly extremist or at least right wing nationalist israeli jews when you're in occupied east jerusalem right now so what is happening behind me. yes behind us here it's to the entrance to damascus gate on the the northern fringe of the old.
