8:06 pm
a lot of pressure as israel always will respond to rocket try is very targeted and there was more rocket fire coming out of gaza as well but with the help of egypt's mitigation there has been there had been a tense calm of the past couple of days and of course now the question was what will happen today and how this will play out it has been a lot of pressure also prime minister netanyahu for a very tough response so whatever happens and the situation remains tense and also volatile whatever happens here on the ground and gaza has dominated the election campaign this week at least we'll of course also dominate the remaining election and up to the elections happened on nine. that francis has arrived in the american capital rabat for a visit and at furthering dialogue between the religions francis was invited to morocco by king mohammed during the two day trip the pontiff will meet muslim leaders and lead a mass for the country's minority catholic community interfaith dialogue is

8:08 pm
force actually requires a joint political solution so i think that this obsession that has been actually very consistent throughout there is not there lament which he's a matter of fact in many muslim countries christian communities in a very precarious situation which means incidentally that for this pope it's become a very high priority item in every agenda that he when he visits it's countries that motion the pope is going to meet with migrants and in the pasta. and understanding how americans react to that shway thing german speaking morrocco is sort of a showcase country for you know for the vatican essentially because it's a country that has a very long history of factually pretty strong integration minority communities christian communities i mean the jewish community actually of morocco is standing community which has a very long tradition of integration i think that is trying to show us a bit of an example at the very same time it's true that this one of the

the likes of box at the brick i mean the stick is that well maybe not for mark zuckerberg but jail time and hefty fines are on the cards if this proposal passes through the show in parliament next week and and it would in a sense criminal law make it a criminal offense for social media companies to fail to remove content that is extreme and violent and to do so quickly and that's the key part of quickly part that will be decided by a jury and nonetheless the prime minister has said that the today with this move that they're calling out the social media companies for allowing their sites to be quote weaponized let's take a listen choice and i have the technology to do this and i have the opportunity to do it and we're going to insist that i do it and if i don't do it well feist the state was for natural penalties imaginable for them and on top of that potential prison terms for executives who are fairly responsible. and u.s. reaction been like this was facebook sit well firstly the reaction has been stepped
