in fact says that low inflation a weak global economic outlook at is no secret that their fears about europe china canada trading partner of the us they might be problems or have in fact he was in the end actually at the more he spoke actually the more bearish he got on the trading outlook he said that there was a weak a weak demand for produce for products weak manufacturing even now and i think that spooked a few people so he was the sort of talking about the future so those are the 3 main issues but he but as you as you sort of go from that little statement we heard the general argument seems to be look the u.s. indicators the economic indicators seem to be ok we have low unemployment low inflation why not just give give the u.s. economy a bit of a nudge perhaps in part as an insurance policy as to what might be coming around the corner especially with uncertain trade issues and possibilities of some slowing manufacturing and other things in the u.s. it's sort of like a it's going to get a bit of a nudge given the u.s. economy a bit of a nudge and she was has there been
4:01 am
a wider political push perhaps for all of this to happen. i'm beginning to wonder whether all hell is going to break loose because while drone power who is speaking the markets just tanked and you know donald trump. is quite concerned about the markets the reason why the buckets times initially was how seem to be saying at the beginning of his press conference this is not the beginning of a the start of a long cycle of interest rate cuts which is what the markets were sort of hoping for we should have donald trump would have been hoping for but then only about 2030 minutes after he started speaking he made a clarification saying look i'm not saying it's the beginning of a long cycle of cuts by more ruling out easy distressed further cuts so there was that kind of confusion which was sense rather the rather sensitive folks in the markets going nuts basically because they were hoping that this would be a long start of the several calls he wasn't ruling that out it turns out after all you know the old troublous be looking at this and you wonder you know what he's feeling he's been pushing for major rate cuts his motives are pretty clear he wants
4:02 am
the economic to continue the u.s. economy to continue expanding into the 2020 economic cycle he wants big because he's tweeting about it all the time he's made it clear in the past when the fed raised rates last year he was clearly considering how to replace drone pow so there was that idea of political pressure how they're saying look this isn't about political pressure it's about insurance but you know he's not ruling out more cuts be saying that there's going to be lots more cuts and troubles have this sort of side because of trump's own economic policies the trade was the huge tax cuts for the rich which don't lead to sustainable economic expansion maybe he will get more cuts because the economy does seem an on more risky on a more risky footing on the fed may have to act again. with the latest on that from washington champ thank you. and still ahead in this half hour political divisions exposed as boris johnson visits belfast for the 1st time as u.k. prime minister and a ears on from one of the world's worst nuclear disasters japan says it is shutting
4:03 am
down another plant in fukushima. and though there are seen some very heavy amounts of rain across some parts of europe central regions out tools east even the southeast as well thunderstorms in particular for some heavy amounts of rain a short space of time but look at this across the northwest the u.k. is in very heavy rain that even some flooding has occurred up into yorkshire but maybe the rain is a good thing because well also we need the rain always but also we could do something to flush away this or this green you can see this is green this is actually in a canal in london you see all the students here about how the canoe lesson but what we tend to see when we had a heat wave recently is an increase in this as the cop and flood levels actually increased again it's nothing to flush it away so we can see some more rain
4:04 am
certainly in the 4 calls now as we go through thursday there is more insight into the southeast we could see some strong thunderstorms that is a line of rain showers trailing right there way up as you can see it will sudden as a scandinavian but the system that brought the rain across the u.k. that is slowly edging away to the east it does promise to be a fairly cloudy couple of days ahead not cold 24 in london 28 in paris again there won't be really any range $26.00 in zurich and again some heavy rain across the alps for the next couple of days but no sign of any rain into northern africa is clear and drying tonnages as you can see here 39 in tunis. where there is water there is life but finding it on australia's arid desert is a skill few still possess they took us to a small wet spot in the in the desert and this was this is a very important place they've been telling us about for the last 5 days between now. and then the world is against all odds an aging population is passing on

then strangers earlier this week and britain germany and france have asked the un security council for a closed door meeting after north korea fired 2 short range ballistic missiles from the city of one side they flew around 250 kilometers before crashing into the sea. it is the most contentious part of the breaks that withdrawal deal between the u.k. and the e.u. and worries over the so-called irish backstop dominated boris johnson's 1st visit to northern ireland this prime minister johnson has vowed to overhaul the deal despite the repeatedly turning him down that luck is made the likelihood of a no deal break city even higher as the reports from belfast. 7 grabbing the attention of the prime minister or trying to these belfast shipyard workers are set to lose their jobs their predicament just one of the challenges northern ireland's devolved government here at stormont could be addressing if it were up and running. for its johnson promise to spend no effort to make that happen
4:07 am
it's great to be to be here in northern ireland and. clearly the people know that out of giving without a government without stormont for 2 years and 6 months so my my problem focus this morning is to do everything i can to help that get up and running again the 5 political parties here have been talking since may about how to get the northern irish assembly back in business it was set up in 1980 as part of a peace deal that gave this part of the u.k. a degree of autonomy but issues including irish language rights and access to abortion remain divisive on top of that politicians have wildly differing views on brics it and specifically boris johnson's insistence that the e.u. scraps the so-called irish backstop keeping the whole of the u.k. closely aligned with the u. rules until there's a trade deal in place and it's very clear that the end is the backstop that has caused all of the difficulties with the winter olympics and therefore that needs to be the subject of focus negotiation to deal with it and therefore we will support the prime minister and other parties say the backstop is essential to prevent
4:08 am
a hard border they're worried what they call the prime minister's hardline strategy will backfire and see the u.k. leave the e.u. without a deal but in their view would inevitably lead to physical checks at the border between northern ireland and the republic of ireland and fish in fein the main nationalist party it could even mean a push for a referendum on uniting north and south we've made it clear to him that the extensive planning that he tells us he is carrying i was in respect of a potential crash ranks as hostile includes the constitutional question and the issue of a border poll here in ireland. seen feigns ultimate is and always has been achieving a united ireland and a clear warning to the prime minister is the way he's going about bricks it could make up prospects a great deal more likely for now the action at stormont is outside the parliament not in sight even if the assembly does against all expectations resume its work in
4:09 am
the near future the challenge of protecting the good friday agreement that created it could make delivering any kind of breaks it an uphill struggle. belfast more than $100.00 stranded at sea are now allowed to come ashore after italy and the e.u. reached a deal over where they will go last week that the prime minister met there salvini block today tallinn coast guard vessel good 80 from docking until european nations agreed to take in the asylum seekers so when he says the migrants have been accepted by germany france portugal luxembourg and ireland they were rescued on thursday from 2 boats off the coast of malta and they're expected to dock in southern italy a little later. u.s. civil rights lawyers have gone back to court in an effort to stop the separation of migrant children from their families at the border with mexico the american civil liberties union says more than $900.00 children have been removed from their parents since june last year 20 percent of them were under the age of 5 the
4:10 am
separations took place the spite a court ruling in 2018 that the practice should be stopped the a.c.l.u. has asked the judge to rule whether the actions were justified iran is warning it will further scale back its commitments to the nuclear deal unless europe does more to protect the agreement foreign minister mohammad javad zarif wants the remaining signatories to shield around from u.s. sanctions and allow it to sell oil tehran has a ready began rolling back some commitments by breaching a limit on enriched uranium agreed in the 2015 accord. japan is shutting down all nuclear reactors in the region that was devastated by an earthquake and tsunami 8 years ago tokyo electric power company has decided to switch off the 4 reactors still operating at the dining nuclear station in fukushima they are the daiichi plant where 3 reactors melted down in the disaster
4:11 am
honorine 60000 people were forced to leave their contaminated homes many haven't returned only 8 of japan's remaining 33 reactors are currently operating the country had $54.00 before the disaster the estimated cost for the smuggling the by any plant this $2.00 and a half $1000000000.00 and it's expected to take more than 40 years but that's still dorf by the $200000000000.00 it will take to clean up the main daiichi station jonathan called as a senior analyst for the world nuclear association which represents the global nuclear industry he says nuclear power should be part of the drive towards low carbon electricity. it's correct that since the for the schumer accident it was important for the industry to look at why that reactor or those 3 reactors had by accident and to take measures in order to make sure that doesn't happen again so of course we should look at the way in which current reactor the being operated and
4:12 am
make sure they're safe and that has already been done but there is a need because the world's energy demand is increasing and electricity in particular that we are going to need a new electricity generation and because of the need for low carbon generation and a reliable form of generation nuclear needs to be part of that mix i think people now are looking at what is actually happening in germany so they did decide to phase out the reactors by 2022 but in doing so they have had to keep open coal stations that should have closed and so those coast ations may not close until the mid twenty's thirty's much later than many other countries in europe are managing to achieve by keeping those co plants open germany is doing much more harm in terms of air pollution and increasing greenhouse gas emissions so even though they have invested in renewables they're wasting their effort by keeping co plants going instead of using all their low carbon generation israel's security cabinet has

approved permits for the construction of 700 palestinian homes in the occupied west bank it was announced ahead of a planned visit israel this week by senior white house adviser jared kush that heavy force that has more now from west jerusalem. well just days after carrying out an extremely controversial series of demolitions of palestinian homes in occupied east jerusalem the israeli government is now sanctioning the construction of some $700.00 palestinian homes in the part of the occupied west bank which it controls known as areas see at the same time notably talking about the approvals of some $6000.00 units in illegal israeli settlements as well all of this coming at the same time as a tour of the region by president donald trump's son in law. and his chief envoy to the region jason green blatt they'll be visiting both jordan israel qatar saudi arabia and the united arab emirates at a time when the israeli press is reporting that the u.s.
4:14 am
intends to host a summit at camp david the presidential retreat for arab leaders to brief them on the details or at least the broad outlines of the trump peace plan now according to our reporting president trump intends to talk about enhanced seeing palestinian autonomy but stopping well short of palestinian statehood and that is a message that his ambassador to israel david friedman has also been putting out an interview on c.n.n. he said that autonomy would only be enhanced or increased up to the point that it does not affect israeli security so stopping well short of a palestinian state the palestinians of course will be entirely opposed to that in fact there has been reaction from the p.a. foreign ministry saying that this is all it intended to achieve 3 things to increase netanyahu is chance's prime minister netanyahu has chances in the israeli elections coming up in september also to consolidate normalization between israel and other arab states before the resolution of the israeli palestinian conflict and
4:15 am
thirdly to try to achieve peace with the exclusion of the palestinians something which of course the palestinians will resolutely opposed. in hong kong $44.00 protesters have appeared in court charged with writing their supporters stood for hours outside the court in the rain and briefly blocked a police vehicle if convicted the activists face up to 10 years in jail their charges relate to a recent violent protest over the chinese government's office over a proposed law to extradite suspects from hong kong to china most of those arrested have now been granted bail and ordered not to leave on call until a further hearing. the crowd was planned to build the $50000000000.00 shipping waterway to rival the panama canal have stalled the mega development project was announced 6 years ago as a partnership between the government and the chinese billionaire but as john homan reports now from the city of rebus there is little sign of progress.
4:16 am
it was meant to be the culmination of a century of nicaraguan dreams the country's very own great canal linking the pacific and atlantic oceans when doing it by chinese billionaire handed a generous concession by the government in 2013 everyone is talking about it we found not a stones been laid abyss point there was a big ceremony to in all great the building of the can now but as you can see 6 years later there's nothing here but a dusty road. why has the canal failed to materialize the short story the billionaire lost most of his billions before work could get started but the ripples still being felt particularly in the form of a law passed especially for the project says any properties needed can be exported predated that law is still on the books in riyadh. there's still the risk that thousands of campus you know those could have their land expropriated and occupied
4:17 am
by private interests that's why the citizens demand that the law be struck down. it's a permanent worry for custer lenore and her family when the canal was 1st planned workers showed up to measure out their house when they protested things turned nasty. be almost broke our heads the national guard had as lying down on the motorway and if we lifted our heads they stomped on them they swore at us hit us with sticks they broke my brother's ribs. just a full statewide a state repression in the country when police ransacked and then occupied her office monica lopez fled to costa rica custer lenore's family still fears they'll be targeted again and they will yet while this government is in power we are not safe everyone that big robbed them putting in jail is at risk and the government still budgeting for the canal authority set up despite the lack of progress we went
4:18 am
from office to office looking for the man who heads it money well coronel but couldn't find him or interview requests to the government also went unanswered. to all intents and purposes it seems this is now a ghost project but while it exists at least on paper it's still hanging over those who never wanted it in the 1st place john home and i'll just because i was. and you moron vashon everything else that we have been covering on our website the address was there at the common you can see our top story their 2nd patient and we are seeing. now here's a reminder of the top stories on al-jazeera doctors in the democratic republic of congo have quarantined 15 people in south kivu province of a fears that they've been infected bible until now the area has managed to avoid
4:19 am
the epidemic that swept across the eastern. all 15 are members of the same family. recently returned from goma where a 2nd person died from the bowler on wednesday it's increased concern it could spread through the densely populated city of 2000000 people at least 800 have died so far at once or has more on why medical officials are focusing on goma this is quite a strategic city one of the largest cities in the r.c. it's also a getaway to other countries it's right at the border with one day and it's also very easy to access other parts of the country all of. it from goma including the capito city can shut up with 12000000 people sudanese protest leaders of called for a 1000000 man march on thursday to demand justice for the killing of at least 6 demonstrators earlier this week rallies have been taking place across

a dance and security forces opened fire on a student protest in north quarter final monday the teenagers were rallying against fuel and bread shortages. britain germany and france have asked the u.n. security council for a closed door meeting to address north korea's latest missile launches south korea says pyongyang fired 2 short range ballistic missiles from the city of one sun on the east coast early on wednesday they flew around 250 kilometers before crashing into the sea. more than $100.00 migrants stranded at sea are now allowed to come ashore after italy and the e.u. reached a deal over way they will go last week that they're pretty prime minister met there some block to the tally and coast guard vessel grigori 3 from docking until european nations agree to take in the asylum seekers so vini says the migrants have been accepted by germany france portugal luxembourg and ireland they were rescued on thursday from 2 boats off the coast of malaysia those are the headlines coming
4:21 am
up next the stream looks at why native hawaiians are protesting against a 1000000000 dollar telescope thanks for watching but i thank. you. i have any ok and i really could be you're in the stream today in hawaii will protests help save a secret summit we'll look into the controversy over the proposed construction of a $1000000000.00 telescope at hawaii monuc here and we want to know what do the monuc here protests mean to you share your thoughts with us via twitter or in our
4:22 am
live youtube chat. meineke here is more than just the tallest mountain in hawaii for some native hawaiians the summit represents the realm of the creator but pro-business groups and scientists interested in boosting hawaii's tech industry what monuc here to also house what would be the largest telescope in the northern hemisphere known as the 13 meta telescope or t.m.t. the project has for years drawn criticism because its proposed location is considered to be one of the most sacred sites for native hawaiians for more than 2 weeks protesters have been blocking construction vehicles from entering the mountains access road at all to say why is governor david e.j. announced an extended deadline for telescope construction to start before september 2021 where protesters on the mountain call themselves the or protectors they say their current struggle is yet another chapter in
4:23 am
a long history of racial discrimination and the denial of indigenous rights by the state so with us to talk about these issues and hilo hawaii hello up a show top president of knowledge here and i know ho or people who pray for the mountain but as a cultural organization that advocates for the protection of nomic here in honolulu david koila copper is a staff attorney with the native hawaiian legal corporation also in honolulu blaise lovell a reporter who's been covering the 30 meter telescope story for honolulu civil beat we also reached out to. visuals in the hawaii government as well as representatives from the 30 meter telescope project to join our program and they said they were unavailable to comment at this time so welcome to the rest of us like to bring in our community right away and start with this tweet we got from christopher chan who tries to put this all in perspective for those who might be new to this story christopher says the telescope can be built anywhere in the hemisphere with roughly the same media logical conditions why on secret land colonial hubris is what's
4:24 am
holding science back not native people were protecting a cultural place and their ancestors so strong words right there kilo are for you what do you see these actions on mount and someone called them protests others we call them protections but what do they look like for you. you know this is this is why these version joining all these global networks. from you know. the that are actually pushing back on the colonial and i'm going to say corporate. structure now that suppressing humanity basically. this is what i think is about it's about raising the standard a little hong and couple aloha because that is our cultural way and unleashing the piece. from our from our cultural. cana you are protesting
4:25 am
protecting us mining here pretty much every day you're not there right now but what do you say doing can you explain can you set the scene can you describe what would normally be around and what the anus. well you know there's there's global chiari there's from all the different islands you know i'm just a kid we've just been doing it for a really long time so we're recognised in that way we've been doing the legal aspects as well on many levels but basically when it comes down to it we're all just joining together steyn and couple aloha raising the standard of the law for a whole day and the world every people every people indigenous peoples and everyone's indigenous to somewhere have a gift to give and i think a little high is one of our gifts and. it's time for us to unleash that in the world. to raise as a killer has
4:26 am
a beautiful way of describing what she is doing but as you as a reporter have to do tonight exactly what do you see what is going on people lying in front of construction vehicles how are you carrying this story for your audience . as a reporter we really need to you know get both sides but i think with what the protectors are doing there on the mountain it's a very peaceful demonstration it's also very well organized demonstration that's one of the points i want to hit is that there are utilized. public relations tools companies governments would use but i mean in my opinion they're controlling when there is a better the. cost of the project and the state government. showing. how they're demonstrating peacefully. so on the other side of the this debate are people like peter peter here is on twitter who says the 30 meter telescope is
4:27 am
essential for scientific scientific advancement and discovery it's not a resort condos a tourist trap strip mall or anything such as that it's a research institution with science under siege around the world my home state should stand up to defend it david you've been involved in at least 3 lawsuits surrounding mounted what is at the heart of them and this point from peter is is this one of the issues. well the heart of all of the legal disputes around the mona came out really is this i. made a point in culture and rights appear to be foreign in their homeland and like peter . views this as a battle of science versus peace but whether you really it is recognizing that the people from hawaii the people who are holy consider this place to be sacred in
4:28 am
their beliefs are intitled who held him in a high esteem like science like everything else it is not subordinate to being this idea that we need to have science in progress and and really it comes down to holding these believes these practice this is being important their constitutional rights be should be honored protected and not just considered another road block reconstruction can no i and him oh yeah and i just sat in there because you know this idea that it's ho and against science is really a canard and it needs to be addressed here because really what this movement is about is raising indigenous fois we are indigenous also more 1st nation people and our our knowledge our wisdom that this millennia old is a form of science and what we're doing here is actually reaching out to science to say science we need to do better because basically destroying the earth destroying
4:29 am
where we're living isn't it isn't the way to go about it you know mama care is is. it contains the biodiversity of a viking because what he's endangered species top of the world every species is either where threatened and are endangered up there and plants and animals also protecting our waters so saying yes to development means we're saying no to all of these things so i really want to break that canard because it's it's really not correct i want to show you can you drop below one yes i think. media also has a role to play in a scene in the national media the narrative is that this is native koran versus science and maybe it's a local extent local media also have a part of play in this i think journalists around the world especially in great need to do a better job of telling that story and i think local media has done a better job in national media breaking that narrative that it isn't
4:30 am
a line for society this is this is a very complex issue there's a lot of moving parts and is a much more nuanced and that simple let's get a real example of that nuanced than that. for example. you know you could say it's neat appliance versus science but it's not made of florence versus science a lot of the native lions on the mountain on monaco are opposed to science a lot are opposed to the event some of them say they could be moved to spain in the canary islands a lot of them are scientists themselves there's also cultural issues that play issues of heritage this for a lot of the protesters on monica this is just from latest event in the long line of unfortunate events that started with the overthrow of the foreign government the way the united states came in it's all these things. co-leading and
4:31 am
says what team he has become a symbol for which is. you know so many of your approach and of the dimmest people you know plays it so interesting that you mention that and also mention that because we got a comment from someone via video who talks about having to choose being forced to choose because of the way this narrative has has come out in media this is a roar a ph d. student in honolulu and here is her take on it i am not involved in direct action on monica yant and watching concern it happen through writing challenging the dehumanizing narrative that resistance to t.n.t. action i'm not here. reflects. the winds that are anti-science she actually has which is how it's been pretty treated . until recently in the community and i have deep concerns over this
4:32 am
framing because it's affected not only me and here eastern students who worked with and forced people to feel as if they have to take sides. when it comes to taking sides kyllo you must understand this struggle because you yourself are a telescope systems specialist you're there consulting talk to us about that dichotomy having to be forced to take sides. i understand this and i do i really appreciate roy's not all her philosophy here and for her to express that struggle the thing is like i said it's a canard this idea that. i mean basically the racism in it is for them when the they call this in court they call this backward looking extremists now those are hot bed words and the irony is is that astronomy itself is based on. looking back in time right looking back towards the origin of the universe when
4:33 am
you look back and then and actually astronomy has the issue to prove that it has modern relevancy because some of the things we're looking out there are say 200000000 years. light years away that means it happened to whatever event we're looking at now all the like took 200000000 light years to get i mean years to get to us so that's kind of the dichotomy we're actually looking at but she's correct in assessing that we're having to defend not only our cultural rights which should be protected not only by the united states constitution even though we challenge u.s. occupation here but us. constitutional provisions as well stay provisions that i was speaking about these are premises you know supreme rights that that should be honored dave jenkins well yes. gets lost in this
4:34 am
narrative is this is an incredibly large man structure it is going to be the tallest on the island and built in a place which both legally and culturally has traditionally been held to to be the most important to have the least amount of the element of disturbance so you know people are up in this ok this is science versus culture i mean this is about protecting a place that is in credibly sacred it is you know under the law is a place that should have very little disturbance you know if we're seen just massive structure that can have incredible effects on the environment and the landscape there and that often gets swept under the rug when we're talking about ok this is about science versus made of points that's not what this is about at all. david this idea of the land being incredibly sacred i don't think we killed this enough because this is the key to why would you build not just one giant telescope
4:35 am
but multiple telescopes that are already there so this is obviously a different way of thinking for native hawaiians and the way that the government are thinking or the university of hawaii are thinking how can you work out that that clash that cultural clash that that understanding as to what this mountain represents and whether there should be even a single telescope there let alone another one that is being proposed to be built there. well i think it does go back to the native point and right thing culture being viewed as more and i think if this was a 0 normal western burial site or a church that. i think a lot of people would be able to wrap their minds around it and say ok we understand but it seems like almost a across the board reluctant to accept. what i would say a large amount of needlepoint people believed to be true and believed to be secret
4:36 am
important and they're just being looked at as well we don't believe you and that seems to be what underlines a lot of legal cases here where we have to have lawsuits to just say hey native points have a right to be involved in the court process and to be involved in the development of permitting a project and there are there is a history of cases like that that have had to have been brought because maybe winds are not given a voice when it comes to important decisions that affect white lies i want to say it's something this comes in the united nations for him i'm right office of the high commission going to put up their response to ask this was the statement they sent we told them we were doing the show this is like they sent this huge a but they obviously were very concerned about what was happening and how why this sentence junk target me fire lighting the rights of native hawaiians in the name the science cannot be justified in any way that goes even further the u.n. special apatow on the rights of indigenous peoples because these actions i leave
4:37 am
the building all the time to the building of t.m. to a monarchy here as discriminatory and racist that's a u.n. rap a tool how do you how widens and people who live in hawaii how are they so when they sing this as racism. i think native hawaiians here that's one of the things that they're looking at is it could be as i said another then and a string of cultural oppression but i think project leaders in this in the way they're justifying it is with the possible you cannot make impact at the post that could bring out that number $1400000000.00 that will come from up the pasco but we with any construction project you never know what kind of actual you can have an impact could have it will actually create local jobs and how
4:38 am
much dollars it will actually bring into the local economy that's that's things reporters here are all trying to figure out and that's something that we're going to have to wait and see on how actually what was that information readily available because this is this is a land that's used by university of hawaii it's in the public demand in my writing song that's why can't you just find that information. can i say speak to that war mongering. i just i'm sorry i'm sorry i just want to say correct something it's actually held in trust by the state for the benefit of native hawaiians and the general public its former crowned and what they call ceded lands and the one thing i wanted to mention about the united nations aspect is that they don't have the clear and informed consent of the indigenous people to like. and the colonial activity that they're busy bringing forward is something that is the united nations in the world community is trying to eliminate that's why it's not
4:39 am
lawful to maintain that colonial stance and what we're facing now is a colonial corporate structure that is attacking mother earth and trying to dominate that and we're pushing back along with the many global movements around the world. i want to picking up on what you're saying there i want to share this comment from a neighborhood organizer and hawaii who talks about what this means and why it's so important how to listen to it aika we have a core philosophy called all i know and it translates as love of land on the country and it's what kept us going through the overthrow 983 how to stop the bombing. and on the mountain. it's help us to build a new community around with free healthcare and free education free childcare and abundance of food and i think it's because people all throughout our community and
4:40 am
internationally recognized that ohio is the alternative turn into the capitalism in the forces which are destroying our we need to protect all these places which we believe are secret and i really believe that applies to ever. so david you heard his viewpoint on why this is sacred but i want to show you this this from someone watching live on you tube jason who says that t.m.t. has been settled in court now the police are not doing their job protesting is great and fine but they are defying the law they meaning the protesters or protectors david where are we right now is this common accurate. right in the sense but i think it also shows a failure to understand what's really going on it's one thing to say that a project has a permit that state issued after it for development but is that really what should have been the will of the people and very clearly it is not. the best
