3:10 am
you not see themselves as cannon fodder? in their view, their heroes fighting for their country? walner used to sort of start to lydia. wagner has its own artillery aviation to have their own training centers. it's an interesting solution to create the kind of private military company that russia has managed to create a they've learned from the british. and the americans are super cool. but that's not unique for the russia ukraine conflict. analysts say the appeal of private armies means few were dead soldiers, and these groups are not bound by laws as regular armies. united nation studies has hired as security guards. private contractors were performing military duties. the you and working groups as pacific judicial actions are needed to prosecute private, military and security companies involved in human rights violations. in 2014, the u. s. group black water was found guilty of killing 14 rocky civilians in 2007, and the 3rd continued its presence with different names. the u. e has been accused

3:12 am
a child were reportedly injured in the attack, is really settlers have carried out at least $300.00 attacks and who are and other occupied westbank villages. in recent weeks, dozens of israeli air force pilots have threatened to boycott military training in protest against the government's proposed judicial reforms of thousands of israelis have been demonstrating against plans by israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu to severely limit the power of the supreme court is governments would also gain the power to choose. judges is really present eyes at hertzog moon. the country is in a moment of historic crisis, isn't yahoo insists his plan would enhance democracy. well, that's sobering and stephen's in his. now he's a middle east, our list and professor of political science at the university of san francisco. he joined us from san francisco. welcome to the program. so how significant are these protests becoming? could they have any real impact on changing the governments course?
3:13 am
they are significant in the sense that shows that a broad swath of political opinion and israel is i rather horrified at the anti democratic moves by the a right wing government the far right wing government that appears to be undermining the independent judiciary, which is the hallmark of any, any democracy however the, the far right to the says coalition of a hard core ultralight religious fundamentalists, just jews. who with these are rightly not, nationalists are quite determined to, to move forward. they don't really care about israel's reputation among a israel or people are among jews around the world or among their fellow israelis. and so it, it, it would be a surprising, i think if the of these protests really in it, of altering the policies. i mean, israel has long been described as a democracy. so given what you said,
3:14 am
it now evolving into something on the opposite of that. what mean israel short credit has been a i fairly progressive democracy, forced your citizens on the obviously it was not democratic god for the heat of the minority of, of housing, arab citizens of israel. and even last, so for the occupied territories where it's always been a pretty authoritarian situation, but i know the, the i'm idea they are democratic, a jewish state is something that is very part of the whole identity of israel has been used to justify a many years of strong support by the us government, despite the enormous of human rights abuses and violations of international legal norms. but the, the, the, the rise of these are the of these far right elements which do have a working majority, india, israeli kinessa. now it's comparable to what we've been seeing in countries like like hungry would they, or bon a regime with you saw with the rise of, of
3:15 am
a balsa narrow in, in, in brazil, modi and india trump in the united states. but given the power of the israeli political system where they can actually make some structural changes your image, judicial a system which are at which had something of a check on the more extreme of policies or previous governments. this may indeed be a moving towards a on a long term, a more authoritarian nature of the israeli political system will have to leave it as stephens innes, thank you very much indeed for joining us here on out of there. sure, my pleasure. ah, and it's been one months since millions of lives were uprooted and destroyed by 2 powerful earthquakes that shook her son to care north west syria

core values of inclusion, respect an anti racism in all shapes and forms. however, he does leave open the door of resumption of cooperation because of the gene is in presence. comments over the weekend, which seems to be walking back from some of the statements. we also heard from the state department today in that price, the state department spokesman enough month, it already expressed alarm at the v rounding up of our position leaders. on monday, this is what he had to say. as you heard from the world bank, we are deeply concerned by presentation remarks regarding migration from subsaharan, africa to geneva, and reports of arbitrary arrests of migrants in recent weeks. these remarks are not in keeping with tunisia long history of generosity and hosting and protecting refugees. asylum seekers and migrants and were disturbed by reports of violence, against these very migrants. and the u. s. has been suddenly reducing its
3:23 am
a to news here in 2021. it gave $8900000.00 to 2022. that's protected, b, 55200000 suggestions that may go down even further because of concerns with the direction of the government. but as you know whom the u. s. criticizes especially in the mid least over human rights abuses and problems with democracy. it's all very, very selective. so i guess what we can dream from that is as far as the u. s. is concerned, she is here, isn't particularly strategically important right now. live in washington, d. c for she have. thank you and take care of the opposition alliance. has named kamala kent darota and his candidate to run against president bridget hampered one in the elections in may. after split on friday on its choice of kind of the 6 party coalition has united behind it has completely finished telling. he's been the leader of the main opposition party, c h p since 2010. and his last 3 elections to had one kid will hold presidential

3:25 am
a truck. that is a lot of people. what, but we do see this happening is we do see incidents like these playing out almost every month just last month. that a 14 migrants were killed when a truck fell into a canal, the migrants died to the back of that truck drowned february 19th. in the mexican state of war, haka 15 migrants killed during a road accident involving a bus filled with migrants there. and again, unfortunately, these are instances that are likely to continue to occur because every year, tens of thousands of migrants from southern mexico, from central and south america are placing their lives in the hands of human smugglers. because more often than not, they do make their way into the united states. we don't always hear about these cases of large scale human smuggling, because most of the time people make it, it's only when these large accidents are these large numbers of people are found by authorities. do we hear about this on the news? and ultimately at the end of the day, we know that human smugglers know that it is big business to move people illegally
