a christian the women who were with her that say said she had touched a cup which meant they could no longer drink from it i was beaten and accused of blasphemy with his sentence now overturned how the islamists are demanding what they call religious justice. yes this is a very sad moment for i was shocked to hear this news regarding the really sure. but we are calling for our government to change that decision oh over there was. pakistan is a religiously conservative country there were two point five million christians making them a minority of just one point six percent of the population to protect islamic authority blasphemy laws were introduced in the nineteenth century that were among
1:07 am
the strictest in the muslim world it means insulting a religious belief can lead to imprisonment or even that harsh punishments also stand for those who support the baby take the punjab governor so mom to say here he was assassinated by his bodyguard in twenty eleven for wanting to reform these laws the federal minister for religion but the was also killed off to simply calling for her release. but from support for the assassinations the rightwing pakistan's islamist party or the tale paper counted grow they have called for mass protests if the blasphemy law is touched they even say the country supreme court just as if to himself that they've attending a sentence the patron in chief of t.l.p. mohammed off sol qadri has issued the verdict that says the chief justice and all those who ordered the release of us year deserve death mobs with the best of time
1:08 am
losing trust in the overall governance and they feel that if there is a problem then the d. d. system may not be. efficient to pick up the issues and come up with a kind of justice in fact these are there are cases in there that matters also via the mob has. killed people but this is not confined to distil only because it is the trust of the on the system. leach stool people coming to the courts and coming to the law enforcement agencies and this law has certainly put a why did their best which is a call for babies conviction to be held gripe is expected that office of asylum and broth will take. and is really clothing brand sparked opera or over an
1:09 am
campaign featuring a model tearing off a kneecap under the tagline freedom is basic the video also pointedly refers to one of israel's biggest goals. all of our. freedom is basic yet the commercial sparked an angry reaction online over a fashion trying to dictate the meaning of freedom. first of all you dumb if you think this is considered freedom this is just disrespectful in so many levels and who are you to define freedom as exposing your hair and taking off and he job freedom is a relative concept this is extremely disrespectful and disgusting can't be bothered by a cheap islama for the cab like this spy who days let them have their freedom and will
1:10 am
have allah's when i saw that ad i was angry how could that be today's world it wasn't just me who was angry pretty much everyone that saw it got angry as well while there is nothing the only stirring controversy in israel a candidate in a local election the city of rome with the release this campaign earlier in the month that the pics a woman wearing an islamic veil along with the warning not to marry a muslim partner the posters drawn condemnation from the cities are a population interreligious more ages are largely discouraged in israel. a woman's rights advocate that we spoke to say that religious beliefs are no reason to judge authors clothing choices. this type of covering does not represent freedom who are you to decide whether these women are free or not if they are comparable in this way of life in this religion then that's
1:11 am
a decision that they're allowed to make if you participate in you say i personally no longer want to wear his job that's your personal choice but to say that it's it's not freedom for those women. i think it can very much seem to come across as not understanding and not respectful of that particular religion and culture if women believe that and they align with that visual and they say you know that's my truth i agree with that then they should be allowed to live with that an idea once implanted in your mind can never be erased but the truth of the matter is in their environment where they live has not made that same so it's just a matter of time before those women begin to reach out and say help i'm looking for help and what we've got to do is provide the resources so that if women decide that they want to live in a different country live
1:12 am
a different lifestyle and those resources are there. a series of crimes in the u.s. linked by many there are to right wing politics are becoming the baseline topic in news coverage with just days to go until america's polarized public make their choice in the midterm elections well one c.n.n. host is clear as to who he thinks poses the real target. you have to stop demonizing people and realize the biggest terror threat in this country is white men most of them radicalized to the right. well don lemon's comments come of her three recent hate crimes involving white suspects last saturday eleven jewish worshipers were muss occurred on a synagogue in pittsburgh in the same week two black people were killed in a shooting at a supermarket in kentucky and fifteen mail bombs were sent to high profile opponents of the u.s. president we heard contrasting views from inside the u.s.
1:13 am
from journalist who neo river political activist and thing rogers right. i think that mr levin was actually stating facts there are twice as many terrorist incidents from white right wing terrorist in those people who submit to al islam what they're saying right now is saying that the majority of the country are terrorists i'm pretty sure that if white men were the real problem in america we'd have a higher incident a higher rate of incidents with these types of terror attacks radicalized white people who are sending pipe bombs to people of the opposing party who just killed eleven jewish people who just killed two black people in kentucky because they couldn't get into a black church look at the result things deaths and look at the perpetrators d.n.a. and is doing everything they can to try to cast a negative light against anything trump in obviously the majority of the voting bloc in america is working class white men believe incidents that are being painted
1:14 am
are happy and are being painted as down from what is really not true people like don lemon are going to continue to perpetuate these false narrative in the hopes that maybe it can just. people from what's actually going on in america which is a great thing right now economically number for people across all demographics including white latino and blacks in particular where black unemployment is a historic low bombs that were just sent did not kill anyone but they were still acts of terrorism and you can't deny that the person who was caught by the. donald trump supporter is a download from supporters and if we are being honest really but he is a registered there is there is there is information that he doesn't matter he said going i took your work right you've got only if we can read it it's pretty sound if you set up a bunch of different ways you can sit there in julius them and that he specifically of donald trump supporter he was inspired to do that by don we have to be honest
1:15 am
about post reconstruction white terrorism against black people we're not being honest about that we're not going to get to the root of the problem white supremacy found in the united states of america white supremacy exists in the united states of america and white supremacy is rising across the world called don lemon said this is just a further and a continuance of the division that was created in america under the eight your administration of barack obama. activists in the port city of hamburg germany being celebrating hala when with a march against the un team of ration alternative for germany party they held bombers with the message halt the ghosts of the far right opponents accuse the f.d.a. of stoking racism and hijacking concerns with. the demonstrators call for an end to neo nazi politics in germany to rally possible peacefully with no arrests when the event follows a recent series of gains for the f.t.
1:16 am
and local elections last weekend the party entered the regional assembly and has for the first time after inflicting heavy losses on the coalition the f.t. seen its support base grow rapidly over the past three years and made concerns over chancellor merkel's open door policy on refugees it's. steering a forty ton ship is a delicate operation at the best of times but in bad weather and with a dangerous cargo on board it reaches new levels as the crew of a ferry in space. when their ship careered into a dock in barcelona take a look the vessel was carrying containers with dangerous chemicals when it's rain causing it to. dock workers fled to safety as the ship's truck on the area erupted into flames no one was injured in that strong winds are believed
1:17 am
to cause the for a trip. of. all right moving on a kurdish fighters in northern syria the temporary halt in their operations against islamic state follows kurdish state syrian democratic forces saying they came under fire from the turkish military the united states and turkey don't see eye to eye when it comes to the s.d.f. washington supports it in the fight against israel. deems them terrorists the u.s. state department has raised concerns over the turkish presence to quote destroy the group. but the used them as you noted we have started active intervention operations against the terror organization and the last couple of days we will soon come down hard on the terror organization with more extensive and effective
1:18 am
operations unilateral military strikes into northwest syria by any party particularly as american persona may be present or in the vicinity are of great concern to us kurd nation and consultation between the united states and turkey on issues of security concern is a better approach. well middle east analyst amar what khalaf stays in korea is simply urging washington to choose between two allies the kurds or turkey. the united states have been told by the turks since the very beginning that they have to choose between their strategic ally and a temporary ally that really has little chance of securing themselves the united states have tried other allies in syria before and they were simply unreliable turkey would want to prove to the united states that this sort of ally is but all but temporary and they can't rely on them anymore and it also trying to prove
1:19 am
to the kurdish militia that the united states is undependable allies well this is all brewing into. some sort of a fight and everybody's trying to calculate what the other party is going to do. a member of britain's opera house of parliament say she's endured media attacks over her position on syria barnett's cox told us she believes there is prejudice in u.k. news coverage of the country. i've had very vicious articles about me in. newspapers like the london times there is a big media i think is very biased indeed and it really does not give an equal representation of the horrific atrocities perpetrated by the jihadists but it's not going to stop me trying to be a voice for the people of syria. many people out there who do supporters and i do find when i do speak in different contexts people just say thank you so much for putting. all the truth from the b.b.c.
1:20 am
we knew there was more to it than that in thank you for telling us the other side of the story so there's a lot of appreciation and a lot of latent support waiting to be mobilized and i'm sorry to say that u.k. and saudi arabia big time have been supporting the jihad is that just prolongs the suffering of the people of syria i think it's unacceptable and my bottom line position is that the people of syria decide that in the future let's stop intervening with proxy wars and i've managed to find out questions in parliament that the british government has used these two hundred million pounds of taxpayers' money to support the hardest related groups i think this is unacceptable i think a lot of british people would be very worried by that and the truth must come out to have a democratic and open discussion and i've said in the houses of parliament in the house of lords that i think russia's been doing the right thing in syria russia's been helping the syrian army to get rid of the jihad is that must be the priority
1:21 am
and i really respect russia for doing that and i just hope very much that other interests that influence british and us foreign policy prevent a constructive move forward one of one of the very positive developments again that doesn't get at the publicized very widespread reconciliation program places that reconciliation programs i mean it's. well into the hundreds and that is immensely important to rebuilding the community can these if those in syria take some of it coverage minister for reconciliation. and his staff they miss their lives going to some of these places to initiate reconciliation but that is an immensely important way forward and again that doesn't get covered in the western media. thing in the u.k. britain's biggest police union house hit out a treasury chief philip hammond claiming he's prioritizing potholes over crime in
1:22 am
this week's budget while the country terrorism policing was allocated one hundred sixty million puns the funding to repair road holes was twice that. this is just another example of the contempt in which the government holds police officers what does it say when a government prioritizes potholes over policing. all figures show that england and wales are currently experiencing the highest level of knife crimes on record in one year over thirty nine thousand offenses were registered at the same time the number of homicides increased by fourteen per cent police in london are looking out of turn of ways they say to improve their finances.
1:23 am
you know perhaps more money should have been spent to allow policing issues to be addressed and i think increasingly there is a perception that the public at large will now a greater threat yes from terrorism but and from general crime then they have a worry but before you know the level of burglary. and saw etc the carrying weapons as definitely going to happen you know if we continue down this route of rising requirement and insufficient funds you're really just turning the police force in this country into a reporting service instead of a preventative one. ok switching gears finally our new organization sports team except complete these days on there it's got
