10:32 pm
to see you you were in a terrible member of our community and you can't come back again and facebook wanted to have it both ways. to our viewers on p.b.s. in the united states and to all of you around the world welcome we begin the day with the staccato of shouts screams and sirens heard today over jerusalem hundreds of palestinians were injured when protests turned violent. there were clashes with israeli forces who say they were confronted by extremists at the mosque today's eruption came after weeks of growing resentment over plans to evict a group of palestinians in east jerusalem jewish settlers have laid claim to the way in which they say belong to jewish families prior to 948 palestinians call the plans a land grab with no compensation for the people being forced to leave israel captured used to resume back in 1967 but the end exemption is not recognized internationally
10:33 pm
here is white house press secretary jim psaki we are continuing to closely monitor the violence in israel we have serious concerns about the situation including violent confrontations that we've seen over the last few days in a color that weekend with his israeli counterpart our national security adviser jake sullivan reiterated concerns about the potential of fictions of palestinian families from their homes and they agree that the launching of rocket attacks and intending incendiary balloons from gaza to at israel is unacceptable and must be condemned so this is something that our national security team is closely monitoring it was just talking there at the white house for more now i want to bring in baker he's a middle east analyst based here in berlin he worked closely with both the barack obama and joe biden presidential campaigns and he served as communication advisor to the head of the palestinian negotiating team arguments good to have you back on the day officials in gaza now report that
10:34 pm
a number of people were killed today how worried are you that this is just the beginning. i mean unfortunately. this is going to be not only just the beginning we are the center colossus of all of this of the israeli occupation and talent to what is happening this was absolutely to be expected anyone with half a brain can see them as was going to outlive. the outrageous assault of the israeli government on east jerusalem and on a mosque state and that shallowing the bombing of gaza this evening where apparently at least 20 people were killed and numerous children is simply unacceptable and the schilens of the international community is deafening. today's annual march to mark the capture of east jerusalem in 1967 by israel was moved back just minutes before it was scheduled to begin with when you look at that i'm
10:35 pm
wondering is israel allowing this situation to escalate on purpose israel is not allowing the situation to escalate on israel is escalating the situation on the at the escalation of the occupation and the absolute attempt to crush all palestinian aspirations of any kind of ending of this occupation that is what israel is splitting they are the owners of this a solution they are the owners of the. mosque claimed responsibility for firing rockets towards israel today islamic jihad says that if fired anti-tank missiles there were scenes of celebrations in the gaza strip after what happened today is there a sense among the palestinians that they maybe they haven't won a war but maybe they've won a battle. these are weapons of the week look at what israel did
10:36 pm
over 20 deaths over 350 wounded and you're talking about some a few balloons that went up in the air are some where we come glorified fire crackers shot by a greek enemy. doesn't trust people that's the problem the problem is that it is absolutely not forced at all what israel is doing and it is up to them it is on the united states and on the european union to put its money where its mouth and. and this this aggression and they have the power to do it. when i ask about that in just a moment but let me ask you about what's going on in israel right now how much of this do you think is connected with the political paralysis that we're seeing in israel you know brant the problem is that this has been going on shore death it's this has been a homme student growth of the occupation a strengthening of the occupation over decades whether it was under able omar who
10:37 pm
was also accused of corruption or not and yahoo or b.b. or the right we are labor or for that exclude it didn't matter they are simply implementing their plan of complete annexation of the in top of all stock and that is what they're doing and we are enabling them along with me and that's what's on the well what would you like to see the united states in the european union do next . they need israelis to understand that it's most favored nation most favored nation status the largest trading block with israel is not the united states it's europe and the united states has been marred just subsidize or of the israeli occupation they hash do they mean must insist on any kind of aid whether it be military economical or political to be tied to israel's at the hearing to international human life human rights and into international law and the problem is
10:38 pm
that we are breaking rules in the west we are breaking our own laws and regulations by not subjecting israel to any kind of conditions for all of this aid that we're giving them a little military and economic law that has to have this is something that i would have expected me to say if we're still president but now we've got joe biden in the white house and it sounds like you're saying the same thing is he doing the same thing well because you know the principal has it the principle is the same whether it was truck provided i think that i know that i personally know that joe biden has some very good people in there who are trying to make a difference and i also see a lot of members. of the democratic party including senator sanders and rashida and i.o.c. they are pushing congress to do this they're trying to christie administration and it doesn't need to push that ministrations on what absolutely joe biden this is somewhere where i hope that he he comes out and shows himself to be different than
10:39 pm
donald trump and yes i do expect him to do that ok bankers always welcome it's good to get your insights we appreciate your time tonight thank you thanks a lot. is france on the verge of a civil war and that is the warning in an open letter written by a group of french soldiers the letter appeared on the website of a right wing magazine on sunday and has since attracted tens of thousands of code signatories the letter was directed at president emanuel macron and it accuses him of making concessions to islamists the soldiers argue that the survival of france is now at stake the authors describe themselves as active duty soldiers and younger servicemen and women known as generation of fire generation that quote has offered up their lives to destroy the islam is a that you president macro on have made concessions to on our soil
10:40 pm
if a civil war breaks out the military will maintain order on its own soil civil war is brewing in france and you know it perfectly well there's a strong words for more now we want to bring in correspondent catherine field she joins us now from paris good evening to you catherine have the french government reacted to this letter. they have indeed and they have been very strong in their condemnation they have sent the interior minister he said this was a crude maneuver he said that if you are in the military you don't do this sort of thing he said these people are anonymous they have no courage the defense minister she said it's a crude political scheme she said the tone vocabulary the references are all those of the extreme right and that's the military they have come out very strongly and said this letter will not go without response and they've even said that if you
10:41 pm
don't agree with what the policies are now or the elected president then you should leave the military and they have made it very clear that they will hunt down within the military anyone that they believe signed this last well we know this is not the 1st or whether white a group of retired officers published one a short while ago what would happen to them. yes indeed that 1st letter was published on the 60th anniversary of the failed coup against against then president shall go all for his support of algeria dependents we know very little about what happened to the retired generals but we do know that those serving officers well we don't exactly know whether they were shipped off into retirement or they were shipped off into a back office but at the time the french prime minister john kass states said that . no one will be allowed to have this sort of what he described as an acceptable interference in the political if you like the political discussion in this country
10:42 pm
and this form. has there been any support for these letters. it's difficult to say but really i'd be lying to you if i said i knew about most of the people who go on online a bit at least 800000 people have gone online and signed supported as those that don't sign not mislaid so we don't know if people have gone on 2 or 3 times or if these are actually people who have done it we do know that in the stream from a said the position called spectrum and france there are those who support this and who do question whether or not french president to bend your macro has been strong enough in if you like a meeting some of the radical elements of some religions here in france and whether or not he has done enough to. immigration from people who have subsequently been
10:43 pm
accused by the carrying out terrorist attacks or supporting terrorist attacks here in france and if there are any war in the. positions of power who is taking this threat seriously. you know as i can make i think this thread that they're worried about is that this is going to whip up a lot more support for the from right ahead of next month's regional elections that they will get big in the elections and that will then allow people to feel if you like respectable voting because it's costly but they could be up to play you could be president met you know micro points that says no this is what they're saying will happen this is what's the national front since they used to call this is what they are saying they're going to do they're going to allow if they're in power so it could well turn into his. if you like his presence as full head and if he does decide to respond directly to these letters and i'm wondering just how fractured
10:44 pm
french politics or at the moment the older political parties i mean they've lost massive support that we know. that he came from nowhere became president if he disappears. is there someone to replace him. well 1st off a man who might follow showing no signs of disappearing off the political spectrum has to go to years ago before presidential elections and he still does seem to be there is the one who would make it to a 2nd round runoff against knight le pen quiet rights the left of the political spectrum in france is virtually nonexistent now the socialist party are banned from financially they've had to sell their heads courses are getting very low turnout at elections they're also getting very little funding coming in from members so it's very difficult for them emmanuel micro stole
10:45 pm
a lot of emotions from the respectful riots that respectable christian democrat rice that is so. france you really win the community he got a lot of support from them so there's not much they are really the only ones that are getting big support in the polls. the far right national front but again we're a year of presidential elections and 8 years a long time even in french bowlers and that's right it's an eternity that's to sort through and it's you know before you know it from the parents kevin is always thank you thank you. i think he did some things that i prayed with some things i didn't agree with what i liked about donald trump as he was a disruptor you know he came in and shut the system up. well that was caitlin jenner former olympic champion transgender activists and perhaps the
10:46 pm
next governor of california general gave her 1st interview as a candidate to fox news the reality t.v. star described herself as an outsider now if this sounds like the play book of former u.s. president donald trump yeah you can trust her ears for months since leaving the white house donald trump's hope on the republican party it's as strong as ever but his public voice was almost muted when twitter and facebook banned him for inciting the riot at the u.s. capitol back in january last week facebook's oversight board ruled that the ban was the right decision hal the decision was reached however needs a rethink in this instance mr trump we are sending them very very much indeed that they did the right thing when they it's jumped from that platforms thoughts they can't just invent groups as they go i know they have to stick to their own rules because if you these 3 as you says have to follow facebook's community standards
10:47 pm
and they do us well my next guest has been described by newsweek as a silicon valley's most powerful tech journalist which is another way of saying that she poses the questions big tech doesn't like to hear or answer kara swisher co-founded the tech news website recoat she is now and opinions writer at the new york times and host of the pod cast sway care's good to have you on the program let me ask you about donald trump he won't be returning to facebook this summer but according to what the oversight board decided there could possibly be and all the return of donald trump is that how you understand the decision. no i decided no it's there's no decision and the ban is in place until facebook comes up with policies now the policy might be to ban donald trump and it might not be and then the board may weigh in on whether that was correct but all indications were that the board thought that the ban itself was correct at the time the question is
10:48 pm
whether to continue. keeps doing the stuff that got him banned including the big law and things like that and so my guess is that he'll continue to behave badly online and they will not probably bring him back on if they have the choice the the oversight board punted back to facebook the right i mean this was this oversight that we had all last week well i think they were correct that wasn't their job to be monitoring the stout this was facebook didn't have policies in place when they did what they did and so their demand and i think they're quite rightly it's not their job to do facebook's job and so they can rule on jobs that facebook does that's their oversight they're not rule makers and so their whole point was that facebook didn't have a policy here and once they have a policy they can rule on it and that's very different than what facebook did which was abrogate its responsibility over monitoring its platform and so they just tossed it over there in hopes that this board would take up the ball but they were like no thank you we don't want this thing you have to figure it out and then then
10:49 pm
we'll look at it after you you do the hard work of figure out what to do about donald trump interviewed one of the board members last week about the trump decision and john samples the vice president of the libertarian think tank kit it was did you get a i wanted to find out about the questions that facebook didn't get answered the questions that the board had posed to facebook take a listen to this exchange did facebook answer all of the questions that the board had for it as it was trying to reach a decision. no it did not we talk about that in the decision it did answer most of them but there were other some decision questions were not responded to there were questions that you didn't get answered i think one was did facebook data on its uses that allow advertisers to micro target people in the run up to the insurrection i mean do we know did facebook make make money on the
10:50 pm
mob. i don't know we didn't confront that in the context of this decision so let me ask you how you interpret that i mean he just said that the question that they posed to facebook was not pertinent to the decision that they were they were making in other they had posed the question that made this this seem confusing at best when we were in the interview i mean how do you read. i don't think that's quite what was going on actually i think maybe you are an accurate you know me to the crude but never tell me that i think one of the the issues that they were looking at some of the ones that facebook declined to answer they've declined on the basis either privacy or stuff that had stuff to do with their business that they didn't want competitors to know about and i think the real question is it the real focus which correctly was that the that the board put out is that facebook didn't have any policy here the things they said they were judging donald trump on they weren't using his criteria such as newsworthiness that
10:51 pm
there aren't transparent about their punishments that you can't. ban someone indefinitely like at that point was one of the board members tell me you can't put someone in jail indefinitely while you can in certain countries but you really can't you know in a normal legal system and so they wanted they twitter was very clear permanently you're permanently banned that's our ruling good night nice to see you you were in a terrible number of hours community and you can't come back again and facebook wanted to have it both ways they wanted to sort of ban him and get the halo effect of not being a hand made into sedition and at the same time not make the hard call that would get put them out of favor with the republican administration or republican lawmakers and so that's the problem here and i think that's with the with the board correctly pointed out is that facebook needs to put more meat on the bones of these issues which are incredibly difficult no question but they built the platform and therefore they should be able to run it run it properly did facebook has
10:52 pm
a policy for high profile profiles correct especially for someone like double not really that would you tell point no they didn't they were not using the newsworthiness criteria they just decide ad hoc and that's really what the board was pointing out and who decides at the end of the day is this a mark zuckerberg decision even. so there is even worse it's one person deciding so there's no policy. in place to what walk this through they sort of do it as a catch as catch can thing and there are certain policies in place are very clear on how to deal with terrorists a group they formulate a policy but the board was simply saying have some policy here that's consistent and they were not consistent and that i think was a really good thing for the board to point out and the board was an aggregate in its responsibility but his facebook handed them was not their responsibility and face it was hoping that marc wasn't the one that has to say donald trump is banned permanently from facebook mark does not want to say that he may have to go and he
10:53 pm
also doesn't want to say he can come back and so they were hoping the board would do that this is a decision mark zuckerberg has to make at this moment in time in the history of facebook because that's there's no other way to do it because there's no regulation there's no other services to go to it matters too much and so he was trying to duck a responsibility and he was unable to because as warner we care about 30 seconds what's your gut tell you is he is he's going to say banned for life or is he going to say he can come back i have no idea i have no idea what he's going to do because he's one single person i think probably they'll ban him permanently at some point because donald trump will keep being donald trump and he cannot help himself even though he should all right kara swisher with the new york times it's ok with you thank you thank you. earlier this year many marriage equality advocates were disappointed when the bad can rule that the catholic church cannot bless same sex unions but progressive
10:54 pm
catholic churches here in germany they've developed their own plan to give same sex couples the religious recognition and the blessings that they design tanya and cloudy a whole us a getting ready for an unusual church service there a married couple and catholic believers but until now their partnership has not been placed in church. you know we love each other and we want to be together and we want to express that not just at the registry office as we already have but in church too because we both believe and love cannot be wrong. earlier this year the vatican reiterated his position that the roman catholic church cannot bless same sex unions because they are quote not ordered to the creator's plan but the tough line has sparked defiance in germany this week more than 100 churches are holding special blessing services under the slogan love wins open to all couples
10:55 pm
irrespective of sexual orientation for those attending this is about meaningful public recognition fantasy of the evening i found it very moving the words were wonderful and we feel really accepted on the unknown thank you. but even some reform minded catholics fear such events may sow division and the official church reaction is disapproving to do if we understand there is a need for these blessings but the bishops conference is of the opinion that this is a provocation we are currently in a theological discussion in germany about reform in the church we have to have the debates 1st such steps can come later so is it. not for the 1st time the roman catholic church faces the question how to respond not just to changing attitudes in society at large but to calls for change from within. well the day is almost done the conversation continues online you'll find us on twitter either at w news or you can follow me at brant goff t.v. and remember whatever happens between now and then tomorrow is another day we'll

11:11 pm
in back to earth today the cyrus rex will take around 2 and a half years to make it home it's carrying a precious one kilogram cargo of material sucked up from the asteroid surface scientists hope the cosmic rubble will provide more clues about the origin of life here on earth. the asteroid named venue gives researchers a window into the past. it's about 500 meters wide and composed of the same material that shaped our planet earth. and that's what makes been to such a great find. every 6 years its orbital path brings it close to earth. even a small change in its flight path could result in a collision course. asteroids have changed earth's development about 4000000000
11:12 pm
years ago they rained down on the young planets asteroids actually brought things like water and organic chemistry the chemistry that were based on to earth of the 1st place so when you go out and you see what this was like billions of years ago is that going to give us a better window into how how we got here how life started on earth are some of the chemicals in your body some of the water in your body today did they originally get delivered to earth or asteroids. in the space probe set out to answer these questions after landing on the asteroid it spent 500 days mapping the surface the probe also researched its inner structure the data showed how different pockets of warm air on the surface influenced bennett was flight path this was vital information in case the asteroid ever threatened to crash into earth. oh a robotic arm was designed especially for the probe it was installed in october
11:13 pm
2020. last year the probe edged close enough to bend to allow the arm to be shot a half meter into the asteroid surface pressurized nitrogen gas was set free and off matter was shaken up that the probe was able to catch pebbles and dust after churning up the material it was vacuumed up by the spacecraft getaway thruster the robotic arm placed his collection in a special capsule then in april the probe sent photos documenting the location of the sample collection now the probe is returning to earth when it gets close it will drop the capsule researchers around the world look forward to examining the contents. the perfect kind of mission of discovery that many of us have dreamt of i mean we saw apollo and the the men walking on the moon returning samples but doing this all robotically in a place that would be very hard to send women a man kind of makes it all very real the precious cargo is set to land in utah in
