7:05 pm
anymore that action needed to be taken and also there was condemnation from the a model of the great mosque in. whatever the thought the believe even the insult the caricature of the other nothing justifies the fact of killing the so it is the mortal capital soon to kill a person like that to cut his throat like that all because it showed caricaturists of the prophet there have been there been 2 terror attacks hate in france in the last 3 weeks and both of those attacks related to the images of the slim profit there present medical an outline course he wants to do with a draft law detainee percentage before the end of 2020 he said that any deviation away from france's secular values wouldn't be tolerated he talked about liberating from foreign influences we know that drove through is going to close a scrutiny all schools and associations serves religious communities and that arabic will now be true in mainstream schools rather than in mosques that law is

values he was beheaded it's horrendous he's a victim of madness i'm even more shocked that this college is one i opened when i was the town mayor and it had a good reputation working there was nice and it was located in a neighborhood without any problems or violence it's time for us to take a tough stance on the issue on how people intrude into from well being deemed as refugees and surprisingly given resident cause to 2030 i don't think that this act of terror is a crazy man's deed but a premeditated act at this point we must prosecute for any violation of the republic's laws in particular for the pressure being put on teachers and journalists to keep them silent. space political analysts nicol a mark of its believes the deadly incident highlights the refugee crisis unfolding in france because too early to see now what type of check was done with these refugees come out come into france what kind of check does france do how would they
7:08 pm
do it to see their background or these people coming from what are their beliefs or what are their motivations why are they coming here 'd and do they belong to any specific organizations i think this definition that france does not do that in any case it doesn't do it correctly and it's that in people which shouldn't be here if you are going to let people into your country what is your plan are you going to help them integrate are you going to do you have jobs for them are you. to help them to learn french are we going to help them in the culture to appreciate the culture to earn the culture there definitely is a major 1st number one problem which is the integration 20 people are coming in and there's not enough means to help them integrate but also the. muslim community has a responsibility has to come these people doubt it has to show them that there's another way to them over as we know small minorities take over georgie's and then this is where the future of this could be people if people within the muslim community don't do anything. just minutes after

7:18 pm
able to resist public enemy number one as the world health organization calls it. this navigation sign says cobbett 19 vaccine clinical trial is this way. maybe i received a placebo because this is a so-called double blind trial meaning neither the doctors know their participants know who's getting it was only 75 percent of the volunteers are getting jabbed with a real shot and i hope i'm among them and i have reasons to believe i really am i'll explain why i got the 1st shot exactly 21 days ago i felt really miserable the next day headache muscle pain for the vaccine developers say every 6 volunteer faces similar side effects by the way they faded away 48 hours or so later today

7:21 pm
a need for the possibility of active life terminations among doctors and parents of terminally ill children who are suffering hopelessly number and will die in the foreseeable future current dutch law permits euthanasia for babies under one and children over 12 consent from parents and is mandatory in those cases but not for teenagers aged 16 or 17 they need only to inform their guardians those children between one and 12 though will need both doctor and parental consent if the new rules are in acted just a note euthanasia for adults was legalized in the netherlands almost 2 decades ago euthanasia accounts for a sizable 4 percent of the total number of deaths in the netherlands out of more than $6000.00 cases the majority involved terminal conditions we put the government's new plans up for debate. there's 2 things that have got to find one is how long someone's got to live and the other is how unbearable the suffering really is and both of those things get watered down over time or in oregon for example
7:22 pm
terminally ill has been watered down to you know you require some medical treatment to sustain your life which means even diabetes is classified as terminally ill where people can live for decades with diabetes this is what essentially did it on the exact same salty announce the definitions of what causes what is terminally ill what is unbearable and this kind of thing and the fact they will think it down now to children as well shows exactly the slippery slope that happens when you legalize euthanasia in this kind of way it's absolutely nonsense what you say it autumn patient with having diabetes will not be helped in his suicide just because he has . if there is a diabetes it by suffering but it's certainly not the reason and this is to wait a post a preachin is talking about i think even the suggestion to young children maybe dying is their option is just going to very very very disturbing for their children and and just provoke anxiety i think children what you have what will happen here
7:23 pm
is children will feel pressured to die pressured to allow people to kill them what an awful thought that is an imperative as well fitting pressure to kill their children or allow their children to be killed i think if you don't want to have euthanasia you're not going to ask create you won't get it you will get absolutely perfect health care in the netherlands and in nautical it is nonsense to say that it is suggested to patients that they should make a choice for deaths it is not one of the nicest thing for a doctor to do to help his patient die but sometimes it's the only way out it's not nonsense at all or many reported cases where patients have felt pressured you know because doctors have said you know we can't maybe we can't treat you for this and so you should think about euthanasia have you thought about euthanasia and don't suit repeatedly said that to patients and they felt the pressure of it give me a quote to that article i have never read. but you said it is still something you think or you believe which is happening or maybe there have been cases where this has happened i must say that we are sacred but it is certainly not the general our
7:24 pm
outlaws practice in the netherlands how it is practiced in oregon how discretion belgium in luxembourg and canada and right now i mean what we've found consistently in surveys of doctors is that people who are actually policy of care doctors do not support euthanasia they're the ones who know that pain can be alleviated euthanasia is is not the right way round everyone agrees that this is a wrong thing to do to terminate life in this kind of way you are perseverant in saying something which is not right if there are situation to alleviate pain by periods of care how doctors do that but we are talking in this kind of cases of patients who are suffering so much where the suffering can not be alleviated in such cases it is much more humane to help somebody die peacefully by yes of course by the hands of a doctor by giving medication. in other news around has claimed a diplomatic victory over the u.s.
