humiliating concession ever made by the state to focus on two religious groups so what we're now going to see is you have to be a woman who has spent nine years in prison and has been has been acquitted by the highest court of the country now awaiting a sham trial but interestingly what is on trial who is on trial is not just b.b. but also the state are focused on to decide whether it is going to function as a nation state or a theocratic mall. that your father was murdered because of his support for the of the baby that kind of violence must be huge to terror terror and for anyone campaigning for religious tolerance in pakistan. yes violence of course is a deterrent. and it was a. but but like my father. he also took a. decision for before for principle to stand for a pakistan of beef the focus on that is that peace with with this minority

communities and about the sun where every citizen is equal regardless of gender regardless of religion regardless of race ethnicity and all the other denominations that divide us these are the principles that our country was created on and these other principles that we live and that we live our life but. what do you think has to happen for both religious tolerance and freedom of speech to be improved in pakistan. well baucus don what we see today the kind of radicalization that you see today is the result of two decades of misguided i'm sorry out there for decades of misguided domestic and geopolitical policies where these extremist elements have been used by the state of pakistan to to do for the its strategic objectives in the region so so what has to happen is a very is a very long radicalization program bought of which would be judicial reform such as

rip repealing laws like the blasphemy law another part of the radicalization plan like this would be better governance creating more economic opportunity of course better education and more importantly informing keep keeping the country informed in situations like this for example the country has is receiving no information from the media about the case why aasia bibi was what was. released and what the facts of the case are they're only hearing one side of the narrative from the religious parties that she was a blasphemer and that that that that this is this is the wrong decision. sean because they are thank you so much thank you. democrats and republicans in the united states are making best final pitches to voters ahead of tuesday's midterm elections and leading the charge to presidents with rival visions for my president barack obama told

a rally in atlanta but democracy cannot work when people make stuff up without any consequences and that was clearly a dig at incumbent donald trump who warned that very thing democrats would be going back to the obama days of high employment unemployment low wages and open borders so with all of the rhetoric what all of the issues that americans really care about washington correspondent sent us this round up. government spending you must. build the wall with the midterm elections approaching voters are under a barrage of political ads from both parties republicans got a big thrill. just in case it made around a criminal illegals and take a moment will democrats then however i approve of town halls bad singing in this message are both trying to drill their respective messages into the political

conscience of the american electorate it's getting less. real. and very confusing what are actually the topics the political agenda which make voters interested and going to the polls coming november sixth according to our experts panel the political topics voters really care about in the midterms are well i think the biggest issue that's at forefront right now is health care the tough issues in this election are the economy health care immigration trade and guns the economy health care trade and then local issues the economy it's booming sure peak for the republicans trying to get voters to cast the ballots for them the message don't vote democrats you lose your job and pay more taxes or as the president puts it democrats produce republicans produce jobs however republicans have just now started something like an athlete's on the

economy perhaps a template of the campaign the economy and health care always issues that are elections health care that's a bread and butter issue for the democrats the republican failed to replace the affordable care act better known as obamacare health care a winner for democrats so what happened to immigration and guns trump is clearly trying to nationalize the immigration debate nationalize the gun debate. immigration a biggie for the president. racism the least racist person but the latest campaign ad posted on president trump's twitter account has sparked accusations of being blatantly racist politics anybody. can be among four democrats trump is the gift that keeps on giving not only is the liberal democratic voter base fired up about going to the polls come november sixth. it's specifically white educated suburban women who voted for trump in two thousand and sixteen who now seem to be turning to the democrats i think i share the conventional wisdom that the democrats will

regain the house of representatives that the republicans will perhaps gain a seat or two in the senate no matter what the outcome on november sixth will be the twenty twenty presidential campaign has already started since as they say here in washington every election is always a referendum on the sitting president. ok let's have a look at some of the other stories making news around the world iran's supreme leader ali carbonite has slammed president donald trump after the u.s. announced it would reinstate all sanctions against iran come and i said the u.s. would be the ultimate loser over its decision the renewed restrictions are due to his on monday after they were lifted three years ago. in northwestern pakistan thousands of people have attended the funeral of an influential cleric known as the father of the afghan taliban sami all hark the prominent pakistani cleric was killed in a knife attack at his home on friday. and in egypt thousands turned
