the shutdown order. everybody knows that i am a so-called moderate muslim that i call for tolerance open mindedness i've got the impression that they just need to throw someone under the bus the mosque will be closed for 6 months starting on wednesday its leaders have been given 48 hours to appeal the decision in court members of the congregation believe that they shouldn't be punished for the teacher's murder. and we have a very kind of mom who speaks to us erratic and french and doesn't tell people what to do she never gathered us together to tell us to do anything bad. parsers for george i don't know if i tell people you should go and buy weapons and then they go and buy weapons and kill someone i'm not responsible for that. i'm not happy about the mosques closure i mean guess what happened to the teacher i condemn it i do not agree with those who committed the crime but for the mosque it's a shame since the murders several french t.v.

channels have started airing of the controversial cartoons in defense of free speech and dozens of raids have already been carried out against suspected is a must but law abiding muslims that now fear that they will suffer from the government's responses are to show dubinsky reports. in the wake of samuel patti's gruesome murder the french state wants to show that it's being quick to act police have raided the homes of islam is activists engaged on social networks more than 80 investigations for online hatred have been arrests have already taken place since yesterday around 50 associative structures will see a certain number of visits from state services all week long and several of them at my suggestion will be dissolved in the council of ministers this latest terror attack is only likely to harden the state stands until it's already led to more accusations that muslims need to take cover or are calling me asking me whether i
10:04 pm
was really that or not so how can we stop poor and everybody is scared that there would be 5 or 6 o'clock in the morning here that you know i will have to be careful of what i post and my freedom of speech as a human rights activist is literally on the balance among still going to as ations in the crossfire n.g.o.s including the collective against islamophobia in france also known as c c i f it describes itself as being a human rights organization whose mission is to combat islamophobia but france's interior minister says the group is linked to a parent to launched a fatwa against teacher samuel party which it thought led to his assassination it received state age we have evidence to say that it is an enemy of the republic c c o f says it is the victim here since yesterday we have been the target of death threats and to complain of hatred that demands the disillusion of. face through so
10:05 pm
many smears of incredible indecency given the context our team is now receiving growing support thank you from the heart rates following terror attacks are commonplace but for some of these purges don't target the root. of the problem this problem be so widespread we're talking. literally thousands of people who are would be deemed to be. terrorists in the u.k. in paris in france. and other countries so there's just an enormous number of people on the free speaking out to. be from the extreme and that will do some good but this is a problem that's going to go on for a long time to common people least a generation islam islam in france was already in the spotlight in recent weeks president emanuel might call that outline details of a new law aimed at protecting france's secular republic from foreign influences

that cohen said a minority of the country's estimated 6000000 muslims were in danger of forming a parent to society and accusations followed that he was trying to a price in france. associations to defend the rights of muslims who are bought off by micron's police in short the message is muslims were going to screw you up. while a french unanimously condemned the attack which led to the beheading for professor yesterday some take the opportunity to settle their scores by slipping into the most abject islamophobia the interior minister says it's now possible to see how political islam has joined forces with the logical islam and ultimately is leading to terrorism many muslims may now feel that they are under attack with suggestions that some real patti's death opens the floodgates to a political trial but those organizations say they struggle against islamophobia so
10:07 pm
let's. see paris. france and germany have the largest muslim populations in europe and are both grouping with a similar integration issues as evidenced by a recent case in germany it involves a lebanese doctor who has been denied citizenship there all because he wouldn't shake hands with a female official if the applicant refuses to shake hands for gender specific reasons which are incompatible with the constitution there is no integration into german living conditions a man who has not been publicly named moved to germany 18 years ago he completed his medical studies there and now works as a senior physician in his citizenship test he got top marks in german history and values as well but a court described his refusal to shake a woman's hand as indicative of fundamentalist views the doctor denies that saying he simply vowed never to touch any woman other than his wife this is not the 1st time that the traditional greeting has courted controversy
10:08 pm
a muslim couple was similarly denied swiss citizenship again for refusing handshakes from members of the opposite sex officials said it showed a lack of respect for gender equality but not all cases go the same way for example a muslim woman in sweden was compensated actually when her job interview was cut short because she wouldn't extend her hand to a man we heard some contrasting views on the issue. procedure just showed that there was a problem with the integration process of this person and you cannot look into people's hearts and minds but that was a clear signal that he still is here to a totally different belief and value system than the one which is the app lived in germany since centuries and therefore i find it correct that they took this as a signal syrians and rejected the naturalisation of the live in his person rainer
10:09 pm
this is a cultural and political process and we have freedom of belief and conscience and you're right there are limits to that i agree and i help governments in this country and elsewhere tackle radicalization extremism terrorism agendas for decades just try. to shake hands and he is carrying out his functions as a doctor treating patients on a regular basis it's not the end of the world he's a contributing taxpaying that society and we should have tolerance if this is a sign of dad in chanterelle he regards the women as a seductive as a danger for his own behavior and then this shows that he has brought up with himself really an outdated view of women and this will create further clashes in the future of this is a part of our culture of chance like that she didn't need it changed in no way so who cannot accept this culture you should simply not work here or long for this it
10:10 pm
doesn't ship of such a country you don't get to tell muslims what this messed up version of a stalinist at least the. policies in place to protect dice not what is going on is about the truth what is lost and what liberties about things. are principles general principle democratic if you want to pretend that you need to add here to some basic value systems. otherwise the society will fall apart and in the end all the nation states will fall apart and maybe this is in the interest of many people but in my dreams and it's just a normal situation in germany europe to conserve society in that complexity that we already have in their colorful mass and keep them as open and really tolerance basis without radical fuz. just a couple of days after being signed the 2nd truce between armenia and azerbaijan seems at risk of collapse fighting continues across the disputed nagorno-karabakh

armenian land don't pollute our homeland we won't allow it it doesn't matter from how many countries they bring mercenaries nothing can beat an armenian soldier when an armenian soldier stand strongly on his feet he will repel anyone no one can enter our armenian lands. a 2nd wave of covert 19 is gathering pace across europe with belgium france and spain among the worst affected those countries along with britain now have higher caseload than during the earlier peaks back in spring and they are resorting to some tough new containment measures as artie's peter all over reports. lots to get through different measures being taken in different countries across europe will start from where i'm talking to you from here in germany while most of germany has got off pretty lightly compared to its european neighbors what we've seen on tuesday is a full red alert announced in the back this god no region of bavaria in the south of the country 2 and a half 1000 tourists being told you've got to go and they have to go immediately
10:14 pm
that says the berchtesgaden a region goes into this full lockdown what that means is that schools are going to be closed all of them are going to be counselled restaurants are only open for takeout and people have been told only to leave their homes if there's a good reason to do it now those good reasons do include business and also exercise and in poland which is one of those countries that fared reasonably well in the spring when we 1st saw over 19 ripped through europe it's not doing so well now with the government there is put in place a series of measures which includes things like closing gyms however we have seen some fitness clubs attempting to get round that one in crack of in particular has relaunched itself as a church of the healthy body in an attempt to circumvent ban on gyms and places of worship are allowed to open but while they are doing that the authorities in poland
10:15 pm
taking things a little more seriously in fact they've turned the national stadium in warsaw into a makeshift hospital as the to the polish government prepares for the worst she militia's here official chinese we must also think about darkness naruse if we are not able to stop the pandemic in our country temporary hospitals will be necessary we opened the 1st field hospital here and we are ready to open a network of similar hospitals around the country in the near future in spain more cities going into lockdown for 2 weeks nevada the latest to do just. that's around $650000.00 people will be locked down they join parts of madrid as well as. areas in the castiel and leon area that have also been put into into lockdown that means bars restaurants won't be able to open it supposed to last for around 2 weeks but that could roll on depending on infection rate spain saw $25000.00 extra
10:16 pm
infections of covert 19 over the weekend moving north and the island is heading into 6 weeks of what's being called extreme lockdown households would not be allowed to mix with one another and your not supposed to go more than 5 kilometers from your own home in measures that will last until the beginning of december i understand and i feel very personally i prefer. the sense of disappointment the feelings of loneliness perhaps even this the despair the dissonance and will bring from any if we pull together over the next 6 weeks we would have the opportunity to celebrate christmas in a meaningful way or last week belgium puts itself into a lockdown whereby restaurants would be closed for a couple of weeks however despite that politicians are still warning about the threat of a tsunami of infections is how they are calling it and also if we look in italy the
10:17 pm
l'ombre to the region has seen a huge spike in infections that's prompted the introduction of a nighttime curfew hospitals they're concerned that they may become overwhelmed as they did back in the spring and the 1st wave of covert 90 you're going in on them to go response or a virus is do not have legs it is people who spread them lumber the is a very dynamic region very active with a lot of population and the large concentration of population in the cities but overall it's a pretty bleak picture here in europe one big question. in that nobody seems to be able to answer though is why countries like germany sweden and denmark aren't bearing the brunt as much as their neighbors. the us government has filed charges against tech giant google it accuses the company of violating competition law to keep a monopoly on internet searches and online advertising the lawsuit is one of the
10:18 pm
most significant legal challenges to a tech company in decades google is a monopolist in the general search services search advertising and general search text that it ties in markets google aggressively uses its monopoly positions and the money that flows from them to continuously for close rivals and protect its monopolies. the us government claims that google has unlawfully maintained monopolies in markets for search services and search advertising says google holds 88 percent of the u.s. search market with 94 percent of mobile searches occurring on its services it also claims the company locked up a distribution through its contacts with apple and distributors of its own mobile operating system which resulted in suppression of innovation in the search market political analyst david perkins believes that history is repeating itself. want to compare it to historically true the.

100 years ago when the company called american telephone and telegraph. including the manufacturer. 50 years in the prices got too high in the service. they filed a lawsuit against a trust suit resulted in breaking up into a regional company's. service being opened up to competitors and all of that made life much much better for business american citizens. which is considerably more complicated. because we're not quite sure what they're doing when you use the company's services for free and you can't figure out what they do to make money and what their product is that means the product is you and they're selling you and your data and we just don't know how certainly it should not be done behind closed doors under cover of darkness. and company.
10:20 pm
by pushing. inferior rivals. people use google because they choose to not because they're forced to or because they can't find alternatives this lawsuit would do nothing to help consumers to the contrary it would artificially propped up lower quality search alternatives raise phone prices and make it harder for people to get the search services they want to use the choice that users make is not the issue the issue is what are the options are there any options and are they good options and is it possible that users could be informed about those options and that they would choose differently if they understood that a google controls information including information that people need to know that is potentially harmful to its business so it doesn't let people know so the fact that people choose google is not necessarily the prime indicator that what google
10:21 pm
is doing is ok because they do have a hand in that choice. britain's new code 19 restrictions have sparked a political firestorm the mayor of greater manchester has lashed out at the government saying it's pushing people into poverty with an upcoming lockdown british prime minister boris johnson confirmed the plans will be forced on the region after talks collapsed earlier on tuesday. we made a generous and extensive offer to support his business didn't accept this unfortunately given the public health situation i must marry proceed with moving greater manchester as i say to the very high level no point today where we offered in order to protect the poorest people in our communities through the punishing reality of the winter to come even now i am still willing to do a deal but it cannot be on the terms that the government offered today because on those terms i could not meet the commitments i made to people on the lowest incomes
10:22 pm
i now look to palm and to be make a judgment on a financial framework. 3. really striking about this latest disagreement is the politicised nation of it as seen by. with labor. holding out saying that the city with its falling number of cases since its peak in september shouldn't be going into 3 not done not at least without some kind of sufficient financial package from the central government now initially the mayor had said that his team had to close around $90000000.00 pounds as part of our package the government's figure was around $60000000.00 but they just couldn't seem to come to an agreement eventually the government put forward only 22000000 pounds a figure seen as somewhat of an insult invictus by me here in manchester and of course speaking to some of the locals on the street majority of them backing the
10:23 pm
position of the mayor and really proud of andy burnham the mayor of manchester for really they were the way the b.b.c. put it was bending them the government over a barrel and really sticking hard on this one and defending those people because that the economic package they announced just it won't keep people alive i do think it's very good that he's holding. for financial measures because we do need that and it hasn't been done enough. but also there is a point where you cannot hold human lives as a leverage anymore a big place and to think about giving people the correct by not just a device people are going to be able to survive a bit so. there against the backdrop of 14 cases and yet the government still insisting this part of the country should be going into 2 or 3 looked on what that means for those especially the lowest paid in the cities well it's going to be a long dog when sore heads. starting on friday greater manchester will be put in
10:24 pm
britain's top risk bracket for covert classed as tier 3 that means a ban on mixing between households guidance against travel in or out of the area and the closure of all pubs we heard from local councillor allan brett he thinks the drastic measures are misguided. i'm still not convinced that 3 'd is the solution to the rising rates especially in my berth in this time if rates start going to change then obviously the government was right and we're wrong the big issue is to protect lives and he's also to make sure our economy doesn't it's a known fact i think that if you go out and you're in a low 'd income job you're more likely to capture this disease and you're more likely john boehner alex problems so even less we have a caucus on the interest of gage's and all the. load come in that will get by the
