10:17 am
than ever we are conducting perhaps the most aggressive campaign against leaks in department history crimes like the one committed by the defendant in this case will not be tolerated they will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and punished and it seems for now whatever the motive alleged racism or spying lawbreaking or corruption whistleblowers like allbery will face the tough choice of trusting their conscience or risking everything. what is happening with mr allbery is in a chilling effect throughout the entire. throughout the entire federal bureaucracy that if you leak you're going to go to prison and you've got to go to prison for a very long time any type of harsh punishment all is. other similar situation twice before they had the question is. is the action of the f.b.i.
10:18 am
in this current trouble ministration going to be something that people can be quiet about all the action and yet on the other federal bureaucracy it's going to be able to be silent given the large amount of corruption that is going on. a palestinian official and several other people have been injured during a protest against eviction in the west bank israeli offices were seen using force against demonstrators. the issue here locals opposing plans to demolish their village around fifty two families rejected an offer to relocate to another area israel says though that village was built in legally and is dangerously close to the highway meantime. another issue close by on the israel goes a border one hundred thirty palestinians including over two dozen children were hurt in the latest friday evening according to palestinian health ministry crowds
10:19 am
were go during the again friday evening they've done services march demanding the right to reclaim lunch from israel protesters again burn tires to create a smoke screen in the threw rocks at israeli soldiers who get responded with life fire since the unrest began seven months ago more than two hundred palestinians have been killed by israel maintains its position of defending the border from terrorists as it puts it with the latest from the frontiers gaza pastry and this you say. today marks the thirtieth friday in the great march every terry as we can see hundreds of palestinian protesters have gathered here is usual to protest today palestinian protesters have started burning tires in an attempt to block the vision on the israeli snipers division in front of the israeli forces are these really snipers is almost totally blocked but yet they are firing live ammunition in gas cans trees at the palestinian protesters gathering there as we can see the israeli
10:20 am
forces are firing gas canisters on the palestinian protesters. there are numbers of injuries that had been taken by paramedics to the ambulances as you can see in the area it's full of protesters from all sectors men women and children. we have paramedics we have a lot of press we have also palestinian volunteers who have come here in order to save the other protesters we had seven injuries four shot for life shooting until now and people are charging because of old a gas that has been fired and then you have another injury i know there is injury. in the i.e. another injury in the air. i. see there are still a number of injuries that are coming in every now and then. with
10:21 am
that report from gaza sort of the bullets in their defense the israeli military say they were forced to respond on friday as a footnote to all this off the terrorists in gaza said several incendiary balloons into israel. the russian foreign ministry is warning that next month's midterm election in the us will be used as a completely a pretext for a smear campaign against moscow who follows the u.s. justice department finding criminal charges against a russian woman for allegedly orchestrating a social media campaign to interfere in the congressional poll reporting from new york. the u.s. department of justice has indicted a woman who is forty four years old accountant living in st petersburg now she is the first person to be indicted and it is alleged that she was meddling in the upcoming midterm congressional elections in the united states she's being charged by the u.s. department of justice with conspiracy to defraud the united states it's alleged
10:22 am
that she had millions of dollars invested into social media activity that was intended to quote so division and discord in the u.s. political system in july we heard from christopher ray he's the director of the f.b.i. and he says that no evidence of such a plot by russia actually had been discovered so far we haven't yet seen an effort to target specific election infrastructure this term at this point it's not alleged that any voting machines were targeted it's not alleged any voter registration records or any election infrastructure was in any way targeted now this comes in the aftermath of twitter releasing a collection of tweets it says came from russian trolls quite a large number of tweets and the report itself actually admits that these tweets their influence was. rather negligible they really didn't have much of an impact on the u.s. election in two thousand and sixteen strangely enough you know these tweets are not
10:23 am
only directed against hillary clinton but also directed against donald trump and in fact they were more effective when they were targeting trump so the allegation that there was some sort of russian conspiracy to get donald trump in the white house doesn't exactly add up if that were the case why would these russian bots and trolls be working to hurt donald trump rather than help him and why would they be working for the benefit of hillary clinton now this woman has been named in previous indictments from the u.s. department of justice in the bob muller investigation regarding the twenty sixteen election she was named however at this point we're now seeing her named and charged in connection to alleged meddling in the twenty eighteen elections which have not yet taken place which are coming up in november. that will further to all this the criminal complaint by the justice department talks of a probable cause to believe that the womb in question was conspiring to undermine the u.s. democratic system it further states that the so-called troll factory as we heard she legibly work for didn't support
10:24 am
a single candidate who posted content in favor of both democrats and republicans in social media accounts with a wide variety of topics already controversial at the time including immigration gun control and race relations executive director the ron paul peace institute believes the charges could have a worrying set of implications though for freedom of speech here. is it illegal for other people to even write or comment about internal american affairs i thought that's what a democracy that's what a free debate of ideas was about was about we don't have freedom of speech to talk about whether we have freedom of speech or talk about very difficult issues for democracy is so weak that even bringing up these issues can undermine the faith and democracy that our problem is a lot more serious than a couple of russians taking out facebook ads i think at this point it's less about russians i think it's about criminalizing dissent in america was a massive purged of facebook and twitter websites this past week a very large chunk of them were very reputable alternative media sites that
10:25 am
question the state and if you look at facebook statement about why they were banning them they said ok well these are american sites but they're exhibiting behavior reminiscent of the russian sites that we banned so i think the russian bogeyman is out there to provide for the elimination of any political dissent where they're left right libertarian progressive in america that's the real target. that market for these grocery chains apologize for something a sandwich is supposed to be sexist waitresses know renaming enough to complain to the paid to be a manly snack. i never knew sandwiches were gender specific i'm female but thankfully we chose that
