1:30 pm
people in australia protested against coven 19 vaccine waters and pandemic laws. rallies were held in each state. capitol has been rioting in the dutch city of rotterdam, after a protest against coven 19 restrictions. big protest is expected in amsterdam in the coming out for more in this. now we're going to talk to jeff hand maker. he is an associate professor at the international institute of social studies at erasmus university in the hague. thank you for being with us. so let me ask you, 1st of all about the, the current situation. we'll talk about the riots and the protests in a moment. but the current situation as a result, as it relates to covet and the number of infections. and whether the government has that has a handle on this latest outbreak of the model. you know, sections of course, on through the roof at the moment we have heard, well, in excess of $20000.00 per day. but who is the highest rate of infections? i'm sure you understand,
1:31 pm
since the very beginning of the panic hospitals over 40 years of care awards, i cannot take on anybody else. the government is taking a range of different measures. both. this is clearly not having an impact on the core for all dealing with the last 2 weeks. right? ah. so what do you make of the protests then that we've been seeing them in the netherlands over the last couple of days? i'm? i'm not, i'm not asking you to, to defended violent actions of many of them. but there did clearly, there is a lot of anger among people about these restrictions and, and the perceived threats to their personal freedoms and so on. yes, i mean, the protests were very much sure predictable, given the state of concern were rather skepticism. people have for the dutch government since april. we've been basically dealing with the caretaker government just not been able to foreign amounts to coalition partners. i got a permanent government and then from people, even before the pandemic, iraq,
1:32 pm
my very skeptical the previous government was actually brought down because of the prices of confidence to the child benefit scandal that has never been resolved. so the crisis we're facing is not a corona crisis, is really a criticism, confidence in the legitimacy of government. people simply don't trust the government tend, and that is a course, a huge, huge challenge for the dutch government to overcome. it. seeks to convince people to have the vaccinations when it seeks to convince people of the need for a lock down. the government very quickly rolled back the previous lock down one without really step by step measures. so to reintroduce the lockdown measures right now, of course are going to be heavily resisted by people. so it's, it's not surprising but of course it's very, very worrisome, but this kind of brakes are going to happen elsewhere in the country. so do you think that this is a communication failure on the part of the government that they haven't they
1:33 pm
haven't really communicated to the message effectively of, of, of, of the need to protect public health. yes, i think it's very much a communication failure. the government is, of course, very, very much concerned about public health considerations. i personally don't have any doubts about that. but of course i come of her from a very privileged section of dutch society. if you speak to somebody like your conference is a common columnist in the dutch newspaper par all. now he expresses concerned about the 2 g system, but he also expresses real concern. but the treatment of people who are not so privileged as people like myself. and that really does need to be taken into consideration and the governments communication efforts. they need to recognize that people do have legitimate concerns. but they also need to explain much more thoroughly the need for the measures that they're going to be taken. so for example, when they said that, that people needed to have the vaccines. it didn't explain that you could still
1:34 pm
transmit the virus, even if you were for the vaccinated communication. we had the states, for example, elise and democratic run. states was much better in that respect. will introduce mask mandates for example. and here in the netherlands, they quickly took away that and that her pause is of course, a big problem now with the rosy reductions. or i get to get your good to get your thoughts on this that jeff at hand make it. thanks for being with us. when pleasure and president joe biden has commented on the verdict of the coll rittenhouse case, he acknowledged many people will be angered by it, but says the decision must be respected. rittenhouse was acquitted of all charges related to his shooting of 3 people doing racial justice. protests law here. john henry reports from kaneesha. it was a murder trial that divided a nation. and so was the verdict. we the jury find the defendant kyle age red house
1:35 pm
lack guilty. it was the same on all 5 charges from reckless endangerment to 1st degree. murder, not guilty, not guilty. not guilty. not guilty. all outside the court house for some there was another verdict. this was not self defense. this was not the appropriate use of deadly force. it was wrong. it happened on a hot august night last year during a clash of protesters encounter protesters, the violent response to the police shooting of a black man, jacob blake. some on both sides were armed. the facts were undisputed kyle rittenhouse armed with an assault rifle fatally shocked to protesters and wounded a 3rd in tearful testimony. the 18 year old called it self defense. i did what i had to do to stop the person who was attacking me each. the jury spent 4 days deliberating, then agreed, members, the jury, are these your unanimous word?
1:36 pm
is there anyone who does not agree with the verdict as read? we wish the triple. okay, oh with that it ended more than a year later on a cold november afternoon to the satisfaction of gun rights advocates. it validates that we have a 2nd, a member right to defend ourselves, our tech treadmills. now, the case is been a national rorschach test. the verdict, no less. so gun rights advocates the vindication black lives matter. members see unequal justice for black and white americans. you what you want to politically and racially charged trial was watched across the us. the verdict supported at the highest level. i stand by with the jury, as you included your system work. we have to abide by for jacob blake's uncle. the verdict marks one more case of systematic racial injustice. that's with somebody in ohio,
1:37 pm
dawn long. the one without honest with the lighting in the streets of kaneesha, residents braced themselves, hoping the violent clashes of 2020 or repeated in 2021. john henderson, al jazeera, canoga, wisconsin. i ronald sullivan is a director of the criminal justice institute at harvard law school. he says, the vantage should be seen within the context of the state laws, not as a symbol of racial injustice in the nation wide system. didn't come as a surprise to me given the state of self defense law in the country. and when the evidence came in, it was a pretty straight forward cut and dry case of, of self defense. so i actually wasn't very surprised by the burden i'm. i do think it's a potential setback for racial justice if we allow the case to be framed in that
1:38 pm
sort of way. so i would suggest that we reframe this verdict as a specific case about kyle written house and the law of self defense in the gun laws of wisconsin. if we keep it in that narrow frame and not associated with broader claims of racial justice, then i think it will not have that negative effect. but many are already making the claim that this is a commentary on racial justice in america where i think this was a simple case of the jury following its instructions for the better example of a case that might impact our racial justice and is much more related is the case that's going on in georgia, the arbor case of the canadian province of british columbia, struggling to recover after one months worth of rain fell in just 2 days earlier this week. the water levels have dropped in some areas, but others remain cut off. more storms are forecast. she can see reports from
