12:03 am
u.s. officials have accused this bureau of investigative journalism which works to shed light on civilian deaths in those drone strikes of helping terrorists one might argue that this label terrorist helper is becoming an all too convenient tool for the government to brush off investigative journalism then there was this yemeni journalist who reported about the drone strike in yemen in two thousand and nine twenty one woman and fourteen children died there the journalist is now when jail reportedly at the personal request of president obama himself. there's this line of thought in washington it's all perfectly fine as long as we're fighting the bad guys the president approves the list of those bad guys by the way the kill list on secret added ins with no review but does the argument we're fighting the bad guys mean. the wall should keep quiet about the execution of innocent people in

of the government's culpability with reports also implicating rebel forces david gibbs history professor at the university of arizona says western media spin as left its mark on the conflict. it was a general point and these types of you know conflicts the propaganda aspect is critically important and there's an effort in the west for a rebels in a kind of purely positive light and syrian regime in a purely negative light and you know get the facts on the ground it's very hard to ascertain who massacre did for a long time for a while look like it was clearly done by the government but there was a report from the german across from to clean the front for. and to kate that there is some indications that might have been some element of the rebels that might have committed at least part of the massacre the german report with regard to fool underscores the fact that it's very difficult to get at the truth in these types of conflicts where you know both sides are trying to use propaganda and spin to
12:06 am
advance their positions and so this is being presented as is typically the case in these types of conflicts the good versus evil conflict with all the blame on one side even if the reality is more complicated. and foreign meddling in a serious conflict is echoed in the wars of recent decades decades cross-talk. the beheading and for the outside interference the arming of the opposition the motion of civil war by the united states britain france and their clients in the region this would not have evolved to this point it was it inevitable that there would be a sectarian conflict as joshua seems to seems to ponder there i think the united states and britain and france are on a regime change path they recognize the vulnerabilities in different societies if they're if they're divided based on religion or ethno sectarian divide those divisions are being utilized in order to break i don't think i was going to be in there. and i would know that because this did not stop the america for enter

a molested and insulted by gangs of the. leader of the new solidarity alternative or and this a group in belgium was convicted on charges of racism he denies being racist but says he's against immigration because belgium can no longer cope with the economic and social demands of mass immigration and that's the fault of. democracy democracy in whole in all the west to its economic but nothing to do with. extreme right or extreme rest or what. it has to do with. such is the argument that has gained traction in crisis hit europe with soaring unemployment recent elections in france and greece showed a big gains for the far right and immigrants say they've increasingly been on the receiving end of prejudice in many forms. in all of europe a woman would have bill can go into any shop and buy anything she wants but have build woman cannot work in this shop another example the teacher of my ten year old

child associated all acts of terrorism. in front of all the students. but what is in the report is the discrimination i'm curious. so. a two thousand and ten report by the european network against racism or discrimination found that racially discriminatory practices are widespread institutional in nature and practiced at all levels of society across europe in two thousand and eight the european commission proposed a directive that would ban discrimination on the grounds of. sexual orientation in all areas including social protection and advantages as well us access to goods and services the current law only applies to the workplace but it's been four years and
12:11 am
