the, the shame that could be spelled out, but not in house. some encourage of come to view the suburbs up. and so over the construction of a wall designed in theory to keep drug addicts out saying it's in humane practice, makes things worse. it really feels like a zombie apocalypse movie since last week. we have faith, the soul, after a soul that we put them to one side like animal. it's a long western tradition to segregate, and you come at the notes. the canadian military chief saw the pandemic as a chance to test propaganda on citizens. according to a troubling army report,

us sentences rose to facebook after a week. internal reports suggest the company's instagram platform could hom, children's mental health. ah . and i good to have with us and i went in the morning here in moscow friday, the 1st of october. i'm calling bray. we will use this, our 1st a france then an anger is mounting in paris suburb over the construction of a wall designed to keep drug uses out. but instead of solving the problem, rather than say, it's actually made matters worse than his turn the area into a living. how shall i do better? he takes up a story. the writing is on the wall quite literally the wall of shame. that's what the graffiti spells out, and that's how some in parish have come to view this. this barrier has been built to hide one of the cities, ugliest problems. crack addiction for months,

drug use is turned hawk. it will in the 19th, decent paris and the surrounding streets into a living nightmare for locals. now they have be moved to around this location. meaning the problem i haven't been tackled. it's just bought a new set of glucose to deal with what it really feels like a zombie apocalypse movie. last week we have faced assault after assault theft after 1st, my neighbor is still in hospital at the trying to catch a drug addict who robbed him. he was beaten up, noel says this neighborhood has long suffered problems, but this addition of more than a 100 drug addicts on the doorstep only creates greater insecurity. the few that's been done. you know, we are almost a breaking point. there's a feeling of nervousness, violence. we think about it every day. i even have to arm myself with protective

equipment such as gus, a taser or a but why? because just last weekend, there were 5 fight that happened on friday, then saturday and sunday. they just didn't stop. we have got to x who come here every day because they need crack. this war was hastily built with the authority saying that it was necessary to protect glucose from the drug uses. but it happened to walking around in that neighborhood. we have seen everything from spilling over into commercial areas and drug deals, taking place openly in the metro and get is mounting here, locals. all protesting against the fact that they have essentially been jump on the doorstep. just last, i'm angry because this people i've been treated like animals, we country, people like that. we can just move them to please further away from fairies. well known color, why are we angry today? because of everything that's happened,

we always been attacked. it's getting worse and worse, women are being assaulted, threatened. we must find a solution to the problem and we find that counselors, there you go. we have to do something along the instead of relocating people to good neighborhood where moving them to areas that already have difficulties, they just shifted the problem a few blocks away. instead of building the infrastructure to accommodate the people . it's an acceptable collect. we are angry because instead of taking care of the deprived migrant population, we put them to one side like animals. it's a long western tradition to segregate new, to put problems to one side instead of folding them. it's nothing new to fascist. we're very good at it said the crazy it's the medical supervision have been approved by the government. but every time a location is suggested. there is a position from people who are buying some lightning the plan

putting rock and they know the menu schools on the injury. children cool is the thing that addresses this is like a logical and also the psychiatric needs. i think there are about a 130 and a 150 men and some women living in a kind of shanty town on the outskirts of paris in totally unsanitary conditions. they need social and health care, not this type of security response. they had already been about later play of insecurity. what's really good thing one about how to solid even a sometimes and you can do an army report has revealed that military bosses saw the pandemic as a quote unique opportunity to test propaganda on the population. the plans were implemented. disturbingly army chiefs, though they didn't need the approval of higher authorities. several officials that

military headquarters was such policies are usually deployed against citizens domestically and have the potential to be abused by targeting government critics. the campaign called for shaping and exploiting information. c, j o. c claim. the information operation scheme with needed the head of civil disobedience by canadians during the karone of ours pandemic, and to bolster government messages about the pandemic. this project which attempted to shape and exploit information was launched in april of 2020 without the request or even permission of cabinet. and even though then, chief of the defense staff, general john vance, gave verbal orders to shut down the initiative that very same month report show that these influence activities as the military likes to call them, continued for 6 more months until events finally submitted a written edict in november and now you might be wondering how such authoritarian and frankly even mackey value and projects could be allowed to take place in

a supposedly liberal country like canada, is specially since canadian law states that the military is specifically forbidden from using psychological operations or a cy, ups within canada, unless given explicit permission from the federal government? well, it turns out that the answer there is essentially creative semantics. you see, according to the department of national defense, cy ops are only used abroad and they are, of course, completely and totally different from what it is. instead choosing to refer to as information, operation, campaigns. sure. and as terrible as all the sounds. the sad truth is that this isn't even the 1st time that the canadian military has set its sites upon fellow law abiding canadians. another initiative, this one spearheaded by intelligence officers focused on gathering data from the social media profiles of canadians, is included collecting data on b, l. m. leaders and collecting posts that discussed public opinion of ontario premier

doug ford. all of this is specially when combined with the increasingly strict code protocols put in place by the federal and provincial governments paints a grim picture for candidates future. it seems increasingly like canadians are finding themselves in a position where their own government and yes, even their own military views them as the enemy and a group to be controlled. sentences of grilled facebook's head of safety of the effect. the company's services have on young people's mental health. it comes after leaked internal research suggested that it's photo sharing platform, instagram homes, children's wellbeing is kellum open reports. facebook once again in the hot seat of the us senate this time because a report showing that a facebook apparently worked to conceal information about the harmful effects on the mental well being of teenagers caused by instagram. it has weaponized childhood

vulnerability against children themselves is chosen growth over children's mental l, and well being, greed over preventing the suffering of children. this seems to be a recurring theme with the company, do everything and anything to mould the world into your own image. for your own profit, without any regard for any harm that is going to be done because your focus is own your pocket book. this book is just like big tobacco pushing a product that they know is harmful to the health of young people, pushing it to them early. also, facebook can make money. i g stands for instagram, but it also stands by insta, greed. facebook had to postpone the rolling out of their new app, directed a children under the age of $1313.00 and younger because of

a wide spread outrage and the barrage of criticism that facebook was facing after the wall street journal revealed that facebook was well aware of the harmful effects caused by instagram. we make body image issues worse for one in 3 teen girls, teens blame instagram for increases in rate of inside sea and depression. according to what is being reported among teenagers who are suicidal and contemplating killing themselves. 13 percent in britain and 6 percent in the united states actually listed instagram as having a been a factor in their desire to commit suicide. now the tech giant has, you know, a basically accused of these reports of, quote, cherry picking facts on the eve of today's hearing. they did release 2 of their own internal reports, but many are looking on with disappointment because this is certainly not the 1st

time that facebook has been caught suppressing data and channeling information in their own way. the research that we've seen is that using social apps to connect with other people can have positive mental health benefits. many people across the political spectrum in the united states, democrats, republicans, it seems like a consensus in the united states that there should be some better regulation of big tack and social media on that. the harmful effects of social media should be controlled. but despite there being such widespread feeling and they're being ongoing hearings on capital hill, there doesn't seem to be real legislative agenda being rolled out there don't seem to be real legislation being put into the work to limit the power of big tack and the social media monopolies despite some colorful hearings, like we just heard a bit of a power struggle between congress and facebook and even these major power players

reading congress wants money. they're able to move robin money behind the scenes rather than being traced back to facebook springs. and there are things going to happen. you think that the set in congress is going to intervene and put in place. and then back in the mental empowerment of major corporations through government corporate policy in the 1st place, intellectual property, regulations, taxes, all these things make it difficult to compete. entrenched these major corporate monopoly and bringing back the parent commission will hopeless when they're up against base because they're up against the government that's backing them up. at the same time. mysterious blaze has broken out and stood guard in south west germany in which 10 buses park at a depot called fire emergency helicopters will, than 35 fighting vehicles. and a $150.00 personnel were deployed to the scene. the explosions to as tires blow up,

as they burn. it's still don't know what caused the fire, but the situation is now under control. there have been no reports of any injuries . if it all the way europe's feeling the hate has it struggles to stick to its green goals as nations rely on fossil fuels to keep her warm nobody this winter, but for years to come and we'll talk you through that off the break i the ah

me friends, as micro recently said, quote, the europeans must stop being naive when we are under pressure from powers, which at times harden their spans, we need to react and show we have the power and capacity to defend ourselves, vold words. but does europe have the political will to actually defend itself? mm. the news? ah. okay. any european worried about that gas bills look away now because natural gas prices have

hit a new high in europe. now reaching $1150.00 per 1000 cubic meters, and prices have been skyrocketing since the beginning of september. so no gas, they would, europe desperately age. the continents also been struggling to reduce its consumption of coal. in line with policies aimed a limited greenhouse gases. but as dmitri power explains, those green energy ambitions might have to take a step back for a bit. environmentalism is all the rage right now, but mother nature doesn't always play ball. winter comes whether there's wind enough or not to power the turbines and where it's freezing cold. no one actually cares if gas and coal are green. energy prices are skyrocketing in europe and environmental initiatives seem to only be making things worse. the fact that wind farms are useless when there's no wind is a big problem for the likes of the u. k, for example, where they're supposed to produce around 20 percent of the countries energy supply

. so it's back to dirtier forms of power. less than that, we need to learn that fossil fuels are still needed in the energy mix in order to back up renewable energy. because if we continue to remove all the bases capacity that is coming from sources like the gas called a nuclear, without having something that is like come backups the intermittency of wind and solar. then we will be having tight situations of the one that we're experiencing at the moment. take the current unreliability of wind and solar, add the increased demand and low supply of coal and natural gas throughout the continent, plus all the carbon permit fees for coal producers. and you've got a perfect recipe for energy crisis, but somehow no one saw it coming. not a good start for what the likes of ursula underlines they will be defining era for environmentalism. it is a pleasure to welcome you to this conference on the make break decades for climate

action. the next 10 years might be italian point, 1st and foremost for global c o. 2 emissions. good luck with that 3 month after she said that and you lawmakers are already extending subsidies for fossil fuel gas until 2027. all the while the energy commission insist that it had nothing to do with the crisis. the current increase in energy prices has little to do with our climate policies, and much ought to do without dependence on volatile foreign fossil fuels. right. and the price of coal permits which have more than doubled over the past 2 years. probably also had nothing to do with the current situation, but higher coal prices and a shortage of supply isn't justifacts in europe right now. china is also having a hard time with the whole environmentally friendly approach to energy. large sectors of the country's industry have been crippled by energy shortages and regions are being forced to ration power with chinese governments calling for an increase in coal imports. and we're not even into winter yet. going green is trendy

and it sounds nice, but in reality we're a long way off before it's actually practical until then it seems non green energy sources are here to stay, trying to limit them without thinking of the consequences is simply a recipe for disaster. at the moment we have to date that physically it's impossible to get rid of all the fossil fuel sources for energy production. if we did not get now nuclear power production and a little later on energy production from coal, we could maybe use last natural gas. but natural gas seems to be the major back bone. so usually for promot, providing a stable energy production at with natural gas. you can quickly lift up

energy production level when wind stops blowing when it start. whitehouse has admitted that it's teaming up with the a you to stop china from getting access to high tech. know how the u. s. commerce chief made the revelation of the top trans atlantic tech trade summit. we have to work with our european allies to deny china the most advanced technology so that they can't catch up in critical areas. well, at the talks gina romando branded brussels and indispensable partner the meeting, also focused on the artificial intelligence climate solutions and the development of 6 g networks. but it hasn't got as smoothly as those us comments suggests, with france among others. supposing a statement about the summit goals, paris, the course is still bristling over the new orcas packed between the u. s. u. k. and australia, which so camera scrap of $40000000000.00 submarine deal with france. it causes

a stab in the back raising fears about the future of the western alliance. a political expert in china told us that europe simply can't trust washington. you're looking really being cheated by the us many times. if you're looking countries like for lady, then the us come that stuck in the us cannot love your end of the yellow dates are also different degrees. i believe that you will have being the american light is open to maintain independent political, economic, and even military false actually be companies in europe. i cannot fully call pretty to say stuff and, and china the world largest condenser, much, or if you can have a lot if they don't fail to china,

those companies. if you look at the trade data, if you will know that it will be the pen peers trying to train you looking countryside is hooing rapidly and they have increased by 20 percent and even the 30 percent. so yield nice. china's market and trying to protect over 130 judges in the united states. so being criticized for taking parting cases in which they all their families stood to financially gain. the wall street journal reports that 131 judges failed to recuse themselves from 685 cases since 2010 involving firms in which they all their family held shares. 2 thirds of the cases ended up being ruled in their favor. the judges or relatives held stokes with over $15000.00 in companies involved in $173.00 of those cases and more than $50000.00 worth in $21.00 others. the report also found that in $61.00

instances, low stocks were traded during coal proceedings. the us courts. administrative office says it's looking into the allegations. the wall street journal's report on instances where conflicts inadvertently were not identified before a key was result or transfer dis troubling. and the administrative office is carefully reviewing the matter. i can say with absolute certainty that i never made any decision in favor of a company, because i own stuck and was invested in that company. i dropped the ball. thank you for helping me stay on my toes the way i'm supposed to. i just blew it. i regret any question that i've created the appearance of impropriety or a conflict of interest. the newspaper highlights of new york judge who handle the pollution claim against the oil giant exxon mobil. malone in exxon stock and colorado judge whoever sort of case against the nbc universal loan, a comcast in which they to own shares. a judge is failure to step aside when there's a financial conflict of interest violates federal law. and it's sponsor furious

public reaction. will they go to jail or be impeached? if not, then it's just another story of entitlement with no repercussions and prosecutions . we expect judges to be fair and impartial. you now see why americans didn't trust the resulting corruption in every level with no consequences. tell me how is that? okay? nothing will happen. that's the whole problem. look at the senators who benefit from star traits, nothing out to them. different rules for different people. lawyer and new politician, money law says, says the situation underlines the reality of america is supposed legal impartiality . if it would have been one chase that would have been fine. but instead it was a $131.00 judges and nearly $700.00 cases. so this really proves to be, you know, a pervasive and systemic disregard for the ritual law. and it really illustrates how the judges, the federal bench, the whole system as an institution,

you know, is, is impartial and biased. i think this is just the tip of the iceberg. i think all these judges have been exploring this for choose all law for a long, long time when the public gets a win that the system is corrupt and you know, did the judiciary is not fair and impartial? i think that that really pushes the public to put pressure on our elected officials to come up with structures that demand impartiality that your, our seed use for this out. thanks for watching shawn thomas. how's your next update of this week's alex simon show? oh, the look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human

beings except when the shorter the conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. the point obviously is to great truck rather than fear i would take on various jobs with artificial intelligence, we have so many demon a robot must protect its own existence was the lack of universal healthcare makes america the country as every man for himself . we have a retirement crisis in this country and we have a health care crisis for seniors in this country as well. so private business has come up with a special mechanism for that. it's called the live settlement market. we are a life settlement provider,

which means that we buy life insurance policies from primarily seniors throughout the united states who no longer want or can't afford their life insurance policies . if you're sick and for one to live a few more years, you can sell your life insurance. that way you get more money right away and the company collects your insurance payment off to your desk. and there's a group of people out there, i get hoping that people die soon. what kind of motivation is i give them when i start crying about them dying? that's usually what it's about. it's just the sheer unfairness of it all. the if you weren't expecting of non governmental be in the image, and i'm sorry, this is a wrong expert vision. you will have to t. it's on you want me to go to the peculiarities you can't

impose the democratic system on sunday he was, and the political order, ah ah ah well come to the alex salmon. sure. where we examine whether the ongoing vaccination program worldwide is getting to grips with covert 19. despite vaccines not having been deployed for the best part of this year, worldwide daily, new cases via the top half a 1000000 daily this over 8 size and, and the total desperate is an extremely heading for 5000000. all this before the

onset of winter and the heavily infected northern hemisphere. meanwhile, africa, it means that unvaccinated continent with billy 5 percent of the population covered . while in the u. k. a series of bizarre policy decisions has included delaying the vaccination of teenage go to it until after the school year had returned. the results across all ford administrations is that the u. k. one of the highest back clinician meets in the world also now has one of the highest rates of infinity. those who talked for early signs of no kite blue for science over divide us look to do to disappointment. but yet look is bleak. i think at 1st sight, appear. well, today we've been well expert professor, this or neil of trinity college. dublin has emerged as one of the key commentators on the ability of vaccines to triumph over crowded virus. but 1st few treats messages, email the response to i show last week. i mean you keep parties conference season

session. this particular client says no one standing up to the 2 days in this says the program is very informative. i was never important enough to be authority. thanks. vena john o'connor. he says leave i too much to the right. now. of course, chris williamson affect his lifelong hero. 20 bed and last week. sure. and i'll newman says tony been was awesome. micro friendly says the english ship of state is hold below the water line. the only thing stopping it from the thinking completely is it might have public money or not that gordon mackenzie says adrena cutty is always of great interest. not necessarily politically or factually correct. but always interesting. and finally, william moore says in the listen to the ship of state ship more like a punctured thing, a with a captain and clueless cabinet. last c. now the back to the deployed, but the virus is still ripping through society. we came to profess luca,

neil of tennessee college dublin, profess underlying state to play in the battle between science and the virus. that's a look at meal was happening. what old? why, i mean i, we wedding less battle would throw in a virus, probably black students to veiling. are those still plenty of pitfalls to come? well, it's much better than i was about, i think a good time last year for a much better place nobody. let's start with the facts, but they're still burning away, especially in developing countries. a big concern is low vaccination rates in the core copies of the world in the west, you might call it quite well. and europe, especially thing very well. actually, we're getting close to the magic number for the magic number now, is that 85 percent are vaccinated or have been infected? that's a really good place to be because you're not getting for the granted praise her to mean it's, you know, that we don't like pretty much a certain you're getting a high level of protection in our community. tremendous items. i mean we're talking

the number one euro and we would like.
