--the vote is closely watched to see if the greek prime minister alexis tsipras loses more support or not. it covers rules for dealing with failed banks and spitting up the justice system. a new process is being held tonight in athens against the new measures to thousands and thousands of people once again on the streets to make their voices heard. it has been very peaceful so far. joining me is a greek society expert from the department of sociology at the university of worcester. thanks for being with us on the program. do you think ordinary people in greece realize what the reforms those that have already been passed and those to come, will be like? >> good evening from greece. the suggestion increases very strange at the moment. --in greece is very strange at the moment.

however, most of greeks are feeling very confused and things are mixed, and unfortunately they are ready for the worse to come. stuart: would you say that greeks feel punished by what has happened? athanasia: absolutely. they feel punished, and at the same time they feel unheard. they feel that actually, what they are going through for the last five years, it hasn't been understood. stuart: what about any causes for optimism? we have heard that there have to next the tourists going to greece. at the same time, the people canceling. athanasia: this is correct. at the same time there are people who are coming in visiting greece because they want to support greek tourism.

to be fair, the measures can only support during summer. we don't know what is going to happen, especially given the fact that rumors are saying we might have elections. greeks are really, really uncertain at the moment. stuart: thanks very much. athanasia: thank you. stuart: we hear the anguish of the farmers -- so said today the french prime minister manuel valls as the government unveiled a package worth more than 600 million euros. it comes after days of protests which culminated interest sites -- in tourist sites in cities being blockaded. >> we have decided on 24 emergency measures to help farmers with low prices, helping them with net restructuring.

and easing and rescheduling of payments. there will be more dead to develop contracts with the food sector-- more done to develop contracts with the food sector. competitiveness will be improved. stuart: it is a video which shows a highly heated confrontation between a female black motorist and a u.s. state who tried to drag her from her car. it has been released by texas please print the woman sandra bland, was found dead in her cell three days later. i'm sure we will play some of the images, but it is quite a dramatic video, isn't it? it is quite surprising in the way it has been released. i suppose the police had no alternative but to release it. >> i was actually surprised the video was released so quickly,

too, until i learned that it seems the video had been edited. it is once again a story of the police trying to tell a different story than what happened -- stuart: police are denying it has been edited -- charlotte: but at least the debate is starting to come about, whether they edited it or not stop it is probable they did, from what i could read from the past two hours, and that is what would explain why they released this video so quickly. stuart: having watched the video yourself, how do you feel about the incident? charlotte: well, i feel that, because this is a typical case of what we call driving while black. the police have been trained to find minor incidents, stop motors especially minority motorists, before anyone else, and black people are three times more than what people -- have three more chances than white

people to be arrested by the police. their only crime is being black. that is the reference to driving while black. that is a difficult case, yes. stuart: but in defense of the police, the problem for them now is that any time do anything which involves anyone who is black, they get leapt upon by people who say you are just doing it because the person is black. charlotte: this is exactly why the training is to be focusing on dsl in situations -- de-escalating situations instead of threatening this woman to use the taser because she did not want to put away her cigarette. the police -- and i mean, some of the policeman, because some other policemen are doing their jobs right, but the police need to learn how to dsl in situations -- de-escalate situations. they are the people who are armed and where the gun and they

are the people who are supposed to protect the population. if anyone has to take a risk, that is the policeman and other citizen. stuart: it is going to be difficult for the police to overcome this public opinion now. charlotte: tidwell. but at that -- it will. but at the same time, if it is proven that the video has been edited, that is typically the kind of thing that they should not do to gain public confidence and trust again. stuart: thanks very much for coming in. researchers at the french geopolitical institute. just going to bring you that breaking is we brought you about 15, 20 minutes ago, once again here on "france 24," for the viewers who are just joining us. the white house says the obama administration is in the final stages of drafting a plan to close the u.s. prison in guantánamo bay in cuba. the white house saying that they

$20 million to kill this deal. we have significant resources to compete, but we know the other side is going to try to win this by spending more money. reporter: aipac is hugely influential and is spending most of his funds on the distribution of videos like this one. there are members of the u.s. congress fully on board with that message. >> what we are potentially doing is creating an at all filler with nuclear capacity. reporter: for the white house there's a lot riding on the nuclear deal becoming a reality. vice president joe biden has been in congress to sell the deal, and with it, the first pass of our -- a barack obama foreign policy legacy. he will be getting tough questions from those who oppose the agreement. stuart: philip crowther there in washington.

after weeks of shelling and ongoing fighting, a ship from the world food program has been allowed to dock in a port city carrying some 3000 pounds of food. aden has suffered acute food shortages, and semi-late airstrikes began in yemen in march. reporter: as fighting rages in the rest of yemen, humanitarian aid has begun to trickle in. this is the first to dock in aden saudi-led airstrikes began in march. it carries enough supplies to feed 180,000 people in the city for a month. more deliveries are expected in the coming days. reporter: we want to say to the whole world of the city of aden is open to all boats. if god wills it, this will push the rest of the international organizations and businesses to continue using the ports in aden

according to u.n. agencies. reporter:, around 13 million people in and around aden are in dire need of food. agencies had been blocked due to severe fighting. airstrikes and anti-houthi forces on the ground drove back rebels from aden. the city was the last one controlled by the head of state before he fled to saudi arabia in march. his administration and the alliance want to use aden to solidify houthi control over the rest of the country. yemen has been in a state of growing turmoil since iran-backed houthi militias took control of the capital last september. stuart: more breaking news coming into us here on "france 24." a car bomb has exploded in a crowded marketplace in a mainly

shiite district of the iraqi capital, baghdad. some are saying that at least 20 people police -- people, rather come out and killed, according to police and medical sources. 50 people wounded by the blast in the neighborhood of southwestern baghdad. he is just 20 years old good reports and turkish media said he only became involved with the islamic state group two months ago. and yet he has been identified by officials of the man who carried out the suicide bombing in turkey. he was university student in the southeast of the country. it comes as the turkish government comes out with new measures to protect the border with syria. a cabinet meeting to draw up an action plan is being held there. kurdish pkk militants have claimed responsibility for the assassination of two turkish police officers.

earlier on in the program i spoke to our international affairs editor. pkk has said the killing of the police officers in the latest incident was a reprisal for the earlier incident on monday, for the massacre, as the pkk terms it. if this was a reprisal, why didn't the pkk attack the islamic state group? after all, suicide bomber, as you said was identified as an i.s.-linked islam is. the reason is the pkk wanted to send messages with the latest attack. firstly, any turkish official deemed to be colluding with isis isn't bad -- is as bad as isis itself. secondly, the turkish government should come down much harder on officials in border areas who take bribes, either to allow

i.s. fighters to come back and forth between syria and turkey or to enable oil smuggling which gives i.s.'s financial lifeline. i'm not saying that these two murdered police officers were doing that. i don't know if they were or not. but those are the messages the pkk wanted to send at any rate. the question of whether ankara can be appearing to crack down under kurdish pressure is a whole other question. stuart: our international affairs editor talking to me on the program earlier. lawmakers in tunisia begun a three-day debate on a new antiterrorism bill aimed at beefing up our soup combat the joy that is -- beefing up powers to combat the jihadist threat there. particularly after the shootings that killed 38 mainly british tourists. as oliver farry reports, some tunisians say that i was give police to much authority. olivia: tunisia's parliament

debates and anti-terror law as the country struggles with jihadist attacks. the bill comes after two major attacks on tourist attractions this year. among the measures being proposed our police impunity for antiterrorist actions, takfir or accusations of apostasy, will be criminalized, and terrorist suspects can be held for more than a week without a lawyer. thousands of tunisians have joined the islamic state group in syria and elsewhere. but there are some opposition to the bill, with critics saying it restores powers enjoyed under the 22-year dictatorship of ben ali. the bill is expected to go through parliament and be passed in 2-3 days. stuart: the chant is "we are racist and that is the way we like it," as they pushed a black

man off of paris metro in february. the video was broadcast, as i'm sure you will remember, all over the world. chelsea football fans -- four chelsea football fans have been banned. here is oliver farry. oliver: football still has a problem with racism, said the judge, as he handed down 3-5-year bans from matches to 4 chelsea fans found guilty of abuse. five-year bands were given to joshua parsons, william simpson and also richard barkley, a former northern ireland police officer and out human rights activist. a fourth man was banned from matches for three years. the men had prevented the man

from boarding the train and then chanted at him. oliver: the defendants denied being racist, but this man has no doubt. >> people know what they did. that is all. we are not in the jungle. we are in a country. we have rights. oliver: chelsea football club condemned the incident and invited the man to visit although he declined. the judge called the men's behavior, nasty, elegant, and utterly unacceptable. -- arrogant, and utterly acceptable. stuart: they have been carbonated close to the time of the prophet mohammed himself. i'm talking about a crime and his group found at birmingham university-- koran manuscript found at birmingham university.

it is similar to the koran as it is today. oliver farry takes a look. oliver: a prize relic that could be more crisis than previously imagined. carbon dating tests have found this fragment of the koran owned by birmingham university dates back to the seventh and possibly six century. it is a finding that has stunned library staff. >> we were expecting it to be early but we did not in our wildest dreams expect that it would roughly correlate to the lifespan of the prophet mohammed which makes it an incredibly early koranic fragment. oliver: this has been dated between the years 568 and 645. the scribe responsible may have been a personal acquaintance of islam's most important p rophet. >> he may well have known the

prophet mohammed. he would have seen him, may have heard him preach. that is quite a force to conjure with. oliver: a local muslim leader thinks the discovery could spur unexpected tourism. >> when i saw the pages, i was very much moved. emotions in my eyes. even the people from all over the u.k. will come here to birmingham to just have a glance of these pages. people will love this. oliver: the minister president part of the university's research -- the manuscript has been part of the university's research library. stuart: amazing find in birmingham in the u.k. the greek problem is set to vote on to more reforms, and when will -- greek parliament is set to vote on to more reforms, and one will impact the banking sector. reporter: fragile banking

sector. closer to weeks. earlier today it got a good sign of aid from the european central bank, boosting liquidity to 900 million euros, and earlier, prime minister alexis tsipras met with leaders from greece's fragile banks. a look at the state of the greek lenders. reporter: a push to stabilize greek banks alongside his second major test in parliament in a week. on wednesday, greek prime minister alexis tsipras met representatives of the country's financial systems. pm tsipras: what is important is that the system returns back to normal, and at the same time we have to ensure that our vulnerable citizens will not be hard by the new development. -- harmed by the new development. reporter: in the fiscal and political turmoil of the past few months greeks rapidly lost faith in their banks.

the result, a run on banks to the tune of 40 billion euros withdrawn since december followed by their closure for three weeks. they reopen on monday but remain fragile. >> it is everyone's goal that this difficult period come to an end and all of the restrictions on withdrawals are gradually lifted. reporter: this is the climate in which tsipra is urging lawmakers to back the final round of reforms neededs to begin talks for a rescue deal for the heavily indebted country. they include the adoption of an eu-directive to bolster banks and protect deposits of less than 100,000 euros, and the introduction of rules that would see bank shareholders and creditors and not taxpayers cover costs of failed banks. the performers are expected to pass, after which negotiations with creditors can continue. greece hopes they will conclude before august 20, when greece

must repay loans worth more than 3 billion euros to the european central bank. william: tech firms took a pounding on monday. how are they having today? william: a bit of the same story. investors in the u.s. are focusing on company earnings, but there was some good news from the u.s. housing sector. june sales rose 2% in may, the fastest pace since early 2007. all markets in the red just about an hour before they close. let's take a look at the other business headlines of the day. boeing saw 33% fall in quarterly profits after taking a $530 million charge over delays to military refueling aircraft. the aerospace chinese set to deliver 18 such planes to the u.s. air force by 2017. boeing is still on track to

break an annual record for commercial aircraft deliveries. good news for easy jet. the low-cost carrier got a boost by strong demand for beach holidays. the total revenue was down 1% but the decline was not as much as what was feared. performance was hurt by a strike in france from air traffic controllers and a fire at a room airport that caused 1300 flights to be canceled. four tests in portugal -- -- protests in portugal. unions and activists organized the rally, angry over an array of the government's labor and social policies. they marched to the steps of the parliament. stuart: if a sports stadium is that big, there is only one thing even bigger, that is price tag. william: it gets bigger and bigger. recently, japan had scrapped its $2 billion stadium that was a centerpiece of its olympic bid. that was after criticisms that

the stadium was too big, ugly and looked like a bike helmet. but now the japanese government, it's been revealed, is still on the hook for $50 million. the reason --

rom pacifica, this is democracy now! >> what is the dominant ideas -- effectively, and essay told to my son. is the notion of fear. i think what people think about african-american communities there are a lot of things that come to mind. one of the things that does not come to mind, i think, not from the mainstream conversation, simply how afraid we are
