a new prime minister. there was a name floated for several days. now the name of sugar, my god. he's a leading member of the m 5 movement or tens of thousands of people on the streets of bama, co calling for the end of present kate as regime. and that's when the military agenda stepped in. so if you nominated new prime minister and if he sticks to the plan, which is to organize free and fair elections by february 2022, then the suspension will be lifted as well as guaranteeing a new government that inclusive far right is really politician naphtali bennett. has thrown his support behind a possible and unity government bennett and his rival. yeah. le peter and talks to form a broad coalition by a deadline on wednesday. if successful, that would unseat benjamin netanyahu as prime minister after 12 years armed men of abductors, students from a school and central nigeria had happened into gainer in the states of niger. it's unclear how many would taken hostage,

world. i cover foreign policy, national security. this is a political impact here. what are we telling a good story? we're really interested in taking you to a place that you might not visit otherwise. it's actually feel as if you were there . this is a part time. she went very hard and just really started working young journal. peter press 5, we believe is right, that makes us complicit. it has ongoing crime against humanity. alarm richard gilbert in europe. the listening post where we dig into the news and examine the coverage. here are the media stories we're looking at this week. inflection point. is there a breakthrough in the us in the coverage of palestine and israel hard jack. bella, russian aerospace is now a no go zone for many airlines. after authorities there plucked

a dissident out of the sky. another european leader shows his authoritarian slovenia. prime minister says he's at war with the meeting and making excuses for racer. sometimes things don't go to a generator that's built for the job. the ceasefire in gaza has been in place for more than a week now. and the after effects of the bombings there are reverberating a long way from the holy. nowhere is that more evident than in the united states where every year, billions of dollars in military aid flows from washington to telephone for decades . that close bilateral relationship has skewed the news coverage in the us of the palestine. israel conflict in favor of america, ally, that is clearly starting to shift the question as to what extent and we'll at last, this is a worry about an illegal occupation, an apartheid system of government. and forces of change that are now tapping into

american social justice movements like black lives matter in order to get their messages out. the us media outlets are starting to reflect that in the way they cover the story, the people they interview and the terminology they employ our starting point this week, the american mainstream media and where the coverage of the palestine. israel story goes from here. we're really going to mean my americans are what americans are seeing in the coverage of the palestine. israel story finally is a dominant news narrative under assault. we don't share the same utility june. they turn on us news channels and here terminology they seldom heard attached to this conference. the idea that it's even remotely controversial to call what israel has imposed on palestinians a form of apartheid is laughable. they seem more palestinian faces than the

networks usually serve on something, approaching a balance. this is a movement against their colonialism which seeks to remove palestinians and placed jewish settlers in their place when they check out the new york times. they see often and images the paper had rarely found fit to print until now the discourses substantially different this time around. it remains deeply problematic, but nonetheless, it's a massive improvements over what it was like in previous massive israeli assault on god. everything changed on the israeli attack. social media play a large role in shaping the american discourse. and as one scientist, organization that we israel could do nothing right on social media. israel had gaza with it truly does feel different and it feels like it has the potential to significantly how the world views this ongoing israeli palestinian

crisis. why now israel has sent settlers in before to expel palestinians from their homes as it is preparing to do when shakes, shut out east jerusalem. it's waged war on god 5 times since 2005 each time inflicting far more civilian casualties than it suffered, resulting and accusations of war. israel has targeted news outlets before as it just did when it destroyed the offices of the associated press and al jazeera in gaza. none of that is new. what has changed is the mobilizing fact that all the video coming out on this story has had on people thousands of miles from the holy land. and there are new communities on social media carrying back content, informal networks, built by americans to demand social justice at home. that have proven to be

adaptable. just as the progressive media had shaped the american response to the george lloyd murder and led the way toward our real reckoning in the american public opinion about our treatment of people of color and united states. the same effect happened on the mainstream media and public opinion, i believe with respect to palestinians. this social media has played a great role in educating people around the word world about palestinians. when it comes to the united states with the media could not deny the video that were coming out of god. the children crying over their parents or parents, bringing their children even the more sentimental videos of kids looking for their toys or finding a little gold fish that was still alive. it really spoke to the hearts of people around the world. on the coverage of this long term flex terminology is yet another battle ground. one word that american journalist have long had an aversion

to when describing israel systemic treatment of palestinian is a term that originated in south africa and its history of racial oppression. a part 15 years ago when former president jimmy carter dared to use apartheid in a book title, he was deemed to have gone too far. the only american president to ever win a nobel peace prize for their work in the middle east. carter was effectively blackboard extra by both the u. s. political and media establishes its only one work. but the fact that american journalists and commentators are now able to authorize to call israel and apartheid state and news outlets are allowing, that is significant. there are a number of liberals who use the word apartheid to describe israel's treatment of the palestinians. accusing israel of par side is

a word that has been used by human rights watch by amnesty international. it's even been used by been tell them which is the largest israeli lead human rights organizations in israel apartheid is when you separate people based on ethnic video, brief, a nationality where one group has more rights than the other just based on who they are. and that is fundamentally exactly what is happening in palestine, israel at this moment. and so the usage of the word apartheid is not just something that is controversial. it's necessary. the fact that we're having a conversation, journalists, and news rooms or writing articles about the question of the call to parts, either you call it nicholas. i think this enormously positive shift in people, not merely being willing to rethink their assumptions, but being capable of rethinking that assumption. people have to recognize what gaza strip is. it's one of those men at the u. s. mainstream media are slowly moving in the right direction on the store sometimes. so what's a case of 2 steps forward? one, step back. take the example of 22 year old emily wild,

recently hired by the associated press to work in arizona. 4 days after the israelis blew up the eighty's offices in gaza, wilder was fired pro israel elements online, had publicized some of wilder's pro palestinian social media posts from her college days. the best defense for those who want to defend israel for bombing a p. i is good in effect, accused of being in bed with huh. and then you just start searching for dirt and he decided to throw a young journalist who by the way, jewish, just to throw or under the bus it's pretty breathtaking. the suggestion is that if you are an activist and support us, all right, i mean, you can't be a journalist, reports objectively. the truth at the end of the day is that everybody has biases.

and all you can do is be honest about these biases. so that we understand where the reporting is coming from, what shape, but this idea that you must exclude anybody who has a history of advocating for policy and human rights. while people who have much more nefarious histories of being participants in an illegal occupation and a system of apartheid, that's a double standard that's just simply absurd. 2 0. 2 2 journalists like canadian, born mattie friedman, now based in jerusalem. the a p employed him in israel until 2014, after he had done a student in the israeli army. last week, friedman filed a story for another us news and the atlantic, whose editor in chief, american, jeffrey, told bert moved to israel in his 20 volunteered for the army and was a guard and a prison torrijos for its treatment of power. current, new york times political columnists, david brooks and former jerusalem bureau chief, ethan bronner,

both of them american have had sons in the israeli army. and on the broadcast side, there's news anchor leaflets. his bio on cnn site is sick with details on the stories. he's covered, the interviews. he's conducted the honorary degrees. he's received not one mention though, of his former journalistic. you're at the biggest, most influential pro israel lobby group of them all. 8 times. there's a strong israel today, a vibrant israel that is not going to disappear for a pass, destroyed tuesday solution back in the eighty's and story. i always wanted to know this guy forgiven his resume. i think that sort of understand that his job is not just his job is to get a range of opinion and then that he feels responsibility to stuff. then wait

a minute on the scene for he's now in gaza. you're there. you're and i witness just to emily wilder, the very young person who had done good work in college. i'm sure it was going to be strenuously trying to do her job as a double standard isn't not, we're not doing the media outlets to be pro palestine. i don't need emily to be pro probably fine. i don't need journalists to be pre qualified. i need you to be objective, to tell us what the facts are on the ground and the facts are very committed. there is an occupation that is illegal and funded by the us government. the apartheid is to your the fee john, god is cleared. and unfortunately, the double standard is because if the american people truly knew what was happening in palestine and knowing that it's funded by their tax payer dollars, i think they would be a resurgence of resistance that the government of the united states america would not be able to, ah,

a passenger plan was forced to land in minsk bella roost last weekend in what initially appeared to be a bomb scare, but turned out to be a ploy by the lucas shackle government to arrest a journalist, romano, 4 percentage monopoly robbie's been following the story amino, why did the bell or russian authorities go to such great lengths to get this guy for the head, which is a 26 year old, who co founded an edited a channel called next on the messaging platform, telecom that channel played a big role in documenting and organizing some of the protest that broke out last year against the election of president alexander shinkel. now put the savage, who no longer works with next was able to do his journalism in relatives safety from lithuania, where he's been in exile since last year. late last year in november, he was charged in absentia with organizing rights and inciting social hatred. last sunday, put the savage was on a reiner flight, heading back to lithia from

a conference in greece. now the plane was over bel ocean airspace when the crew received orders to land in minutes because of the possibility of explosives on board. as soon as the flight landed put, the savage and his girlfriend was arrested by the elevation authorities. unsurprisingly, no ones were found on the flight, and the state owned bella, she news agency has reported that lucca shinkel himself issued the order for the flight to land in minutes. so protest, savage is behind bars. where has the story gone since that? well, the bell edition government has released a video for the savage, but it bears all the hallmark of a false confession. suggests your proposal and they are getting lots and lots of fish says he's being treated lawfully, but the bruises on his face tell a different story. meanwhile, western governments are professing outraged. some have imposed sanctions. they say more coming, but there is an element of hypocrisy in the reaction to this story is there not?

how quickly they forget, be reported in the case of edward snowden, the former us intelligence employee who leaked classified documents to journalists back in 2013, at that time a plane carrying the former bolivian president. even morales was forced to land in austria because the obama administration mistakenly thought edward snowden was on board. the united states received a lot of criticism for that. but nothing like what bella luce is facing right now. ok, thanks. hungary, poland, and serbia. what do they have in common? they're all ex soviet bloc. countries that since shedding their communist ideologies have turned into a liberal democracies with some authoritarian habits such as controlling their news media. you can now add another country to that list, slovenia, the ex yugoslavs state of just 2000000 people has in the past year suffered a drastic decline impress street. that coincided with the re election of prime minister yanis yankee,

a one time anti communist campaigner turned right winger who's now into with 3rd stint as prime minister. his 1st week, back in office, in march of 2020, was the same week that slovenia confirm its 1st case of covert 19. and the pandemic has turned out to be a handy little pretext for the prime minister to clamp down on the press. list me posts. flo phillips now on the annis young shot, and his self proclaimed war with the meeting. oh, mama whistled pushes me girls. i have a lot of experience with serious threats and i've been placed on the police protection many times. but the threats i received last march when nothing like anything i've experienced before court. even cody march 2020, to virginia, like the rest of europe, is going into locked down. and like journalists across the continent like gaga,

it's scrutinizing his government's response to the academic. he publishes an investigation into something called crisis h q, a secretive, seemingly unconstitutional government body set up by the libyan prime minister to coordinate the country's corona virus strategies for some fanatic. on the very same evening that i published my investigation prime minister janish john, chuck hughes, me of being a lawyer on twitter simulation. he that's the after the pro young media like noble $24.00, he started publishing news about me on a daily basis. last guy, very collision. he got there with india and began receiving a lot of threats saying that i should be beaten up, shot, kill motorcycle. i mean have someone even broke into my house? like any journalist? i can handle criticism,

but it's different when it's the prime minister. yansa himself is the chief agitator in this war with the more your and his me, ah, saying that the prime minister of sabina is that quote, war with the media might sound like high public. but those are the words that the prime minister, just weeks after a steaming off it, faced with the cova crisis. young township published an open letter. not on how to deal with the pandemic, but rather how to deal with the press. his suggestion use twitter as an antidote to the country media monopoly. i would say that i was not surprised in a way by dislike or of course one can always hope that someone will come to the census and focus on the health crisis. but unfortunately, as soon as he became prime minister, he's to defeat, show that there is no such thing as calm down or taking time off, attacking joe as a and in

a way the letter about the war with the media or the continuation of that approach . it basically said yourself as a frogs being slowly cooked and even use that metaphor. and you know, if there was one thing to fear in that letter, it was that because we are kind of the frog waiting for the water to boil. this war has been going on for at least 15 years. right now. we're in version 3. and it looks like there's no holds barred. ah, version 3. that refers to the fact that this is the 3rd time as prime minister and versions one and 2 all the way they ended help explain his contempt for the civilian press. his close government was voted out in 2008, after reported, uncovered his role in a shady deal. his 2nd time came to an end in 2013 during

a media fire storm over the under reporting of his taxable aspect. so you mentioned that cross did his levine in democratic parties, politics? yes. in opposition to the mainstream media, he's been among his most frequent target. devine as national press agency, the sta, and it's national broadcast on tv. it's a for me in a tried and tested in all the x o b block countries still finding the way in the european union. yellow young show is to, victor will be honest, hungry or get a chance give to poland, po 3 from the political right. for the 1st elected national leaders in the late 1990 mid, 2000. and then we'll go to out of office learning lessons along the way. all 3 then returned to power with a plan, bring the domestic media to heal. what said young sher, apart from kuchinski and all bon however, is that he knows this kind of story from both sides. he's a former journalist,

marina levine, as a young journalist, yan shakes both secrets of the yugoslav army, for which he was sentenced to prison. the part at the time he was held up as a symbol of sylvia's transition to democracy. but practically overnight, he became the defense minister and started going after journalists investigating the weapons trade trevino's origin mccarty. i'm shot when he returns as prime minister in 2004. he managed to take control of the public and he appointed the car salesman, a c o of our tv and put a government p r consulting su. oh yes, he got his way. this is what he wants to do. again, she needs to be donna except this time instead of just controlling the s t a, he wants to shut it down. in february young, she suspended all state funding. and the s t i need to ship is now concerned that by july, the national press agency will be bankrupt. donna,

samantha. all is there tweet, taxable media organizations and journalists long the pillar in area code on the on she had to attend to hearing in march? yeah, it didn't go well. a sophie the news failed sophie and developed monitors media, freedom of the european parliament, put together a live zoom hearing that he agreed to attend. however, during the hearing, he demanded to play a 16 minute long propaganda video about how he sees the media. so vimeo, i would now like to ask this video to be played in putting football tamikiana, but when they write, you denied his request, cried censorship. it seems that you don't want to play this video because of it's content in the stone. all you simply disconnected. and left the meeting, i've been told that the prime minister has disconnected so i take it that the session was not liking. could marina sammy late,

that was generally know if the chair woman of the european parliamentary committee doesn't was really great. i don't think that's reason enough to area toys are those that i look at the volume of verbal and physical attacks on journalists took place in slovenia by and large during the left leaning governments. the media outlets were talking about the video. none of them actually. we are doing and we got high rating coslyn mil resubmit on on that doris thomas h tv host and chief editor at nova 24 t b one of a number of new right wing to be and media out that that part funded by young. she was at the party and played a key role in amplifying its political agenda and young. shes online targeting of the media. no one from the government was made available to discuss the answer, the tax on the potomac, she was willing to speak on behalf of not just his network, but his prime minister,

to be honest hopefully isn't the only young shot allowed to express his view of the living the media landscape, doesn't the shop have the right to state that the media is waging war on him and not the other way around. his defending himself. there's the media monopoly in slovenia, which is gradually being the moderation level. it started being thrown down when number 24 to be launched, and now it's being turned down by the government as well. i have to say that along the media content and statements that we have been taking in the past 2 years now. the 24 tv is one of the main source of information and this information into the obvious public campaign against journalists and against media. relentless. we can only hope that the aggressive behavior, or rather the aggressive rhetoric of disco room and will not be reflected in actual physical violence. we know that in a number of european countries,

they were killings and assassination of journalists in countries such as slovakia, malta and greece. recently, i know that there is a number of journalists and editors who are actually afraid that something could happen. the prime minister, however, seems unapologetic unashamed. and that to me cause for his impeachment in parliament and on the street. a civilian, prepared to celebrate 30 years of its independence, young young sher, it's fighting battles at home and abroad. his rule, however, is with the media. and finally, life was so much easier for racists before mobile phones came along and the videos they captured started to go viral. we've seen people get cancelled lose their jobs, their places in school, despite protestations that those tell tale moments aren't who they really are. so

here's an idea that it's long overdue, an online excuse generator that tell us everyone out there that you're not really a racist. it is the brainchild of a british internet. comedian monia chihuahua. here is hoping that you won't be needing his creation anytime soon. was the next time you're listening, you had a racist outburst. that wasn't your folks i, we get it. sometimes things don't go to class. but in our insure it, we need to show how not racist you really. instead of leaning on the classic catalogue of caucasian excuses, you'll have access to our online. i'm not a racist excuse generator. for example, i'm not regular. my 1st phone was a blackberry or an racist. i went to get my chips and ragged reg source old. i'm not racist. why not? because of most of the shape of basketball and sign up today and will even throw in your very own black friend to have your back to the next time and accident. glenwood slips out. take your main body out to a cafe. the park, or even for

a swim at the beach, actually maybe the last one with over many clients. you know, you love the service. so if you have any niggling doubts, give us a call today. 800 on not a racist 456 because i know insurance on job is to assist the racist one of the filipino work is a big boy should buy landlord to make them pay exorbitant prices to leave over crowded one or 18 of them and exposes the business one al jazeera in the next episode of science in the golden age. i'll be exploring the contributions made by scholars during the medieval period in the field of astronomy . copernicus owes this day to these medieval astronomers from the golden age. actually in many ways with the computers of the day,

you can use it to find the time you could navigate science in a golden age. with jimmy holly on a jazz ah ah, west african leaders kick molly out of a regional block of nations following last week. ah, kyle, that says they're alive from dough hole. so coming up benjamin netanyahu days, as is ready, prime minister could be numbered as a political rivals join forces to oust him. the leaders of australia, new zealand trying to on out the differences are a long way.
