the, the, now the russian defense ministry stays the t ukrainian, or temporary positions have been taken out near the village of fleming naya, tease equal stone offerings. as this report was speaking to your friend in soldiers that have been top cheered by russian, that we must tell you beforehand that those we interviewed may be speaking on the duress. a full month's ukraine has now be gnawing away at russia's defense. as they came the soul, they bent success on the battlefield. so russia's confidence mount somebody's voice was just what is happening now. across the front line is cold, active defense. our troops are improving the strong coal throughout the whole combat zone. this is a fairly large space. i'm talking about kapinsky step rogia and dave confront lines . hundreds of ukrainian soldiers were captured, swapping the uniforms for prison robes. many weren't as lucky, but didn't know that there were a lot of losses. we had to 120 people is from 120 to 130 people in the company of

soldiers. it depends. generally had on the 30 to 40 people left. there are a lot of losses because most of the losses were from artillery and drones that sometimes we didn't even reach the positions there. tillery was getting us. this captured officer is a professional soldier, a rare breed in the ranks of ukraine's army in the era of total and mass. so this mobilization, his brigade received the best training available to keep the troops, the course sent to germany, and the whole brigade was trained. their destructors were americans, there were no germans. the gunners fired from strikers with groaning machine guns. the drivers were trained to drive strikers and real common operations that turned out to be quite different than on the range. there's nowhere else. it doesn't feel the same on the range. when they're on the battlefield, it all comes shock, panic, people get lost. you don't understand what to do and from that a lot of lots of secure instructors in the u. k and friends also failed their

graduates to other ukrainian soldiers who chose to surrender, share a similar story. and on the so that all those that don't hang over us, we couldn't get out or look around just to our men approached us at the position and said that we were captured, we had the drones. what was the, as they were already situations when the drone drops explosive solving again. so we took show to the dog, out onto the overlap and waited for it to fly away without shooting and explosions on the right flank. and we've us around it. then we've had enough to come out with our hands up and we replied that we would go out. don't shoot what put down our weapons and went out in the face of heavy casualties. ukrainian propaganda works overtime to low volunteers. this recruits with the face of a child felt for the pretty picture. so i signed the contract in march

2023 and i want it to be a medic. as i was trained in giving treatment in a hospital and in college and civilian life, i would just be a nurse collecting things, taking things, and it's not very critical. in reality, everything is very different. everything is because of the news. they embellish everything. there's not enough information. our group essentially went without anything, and this is not rational. we were just to meet why it was a done. this is a question for the battalion commander is an outrage to send people to the slaughter. we raised this issue and were told that the battalion commander has his own solution. key of still counts on its troops to deliver something where the of the 10s of billions of dollars of western aid. yet now these hopes seemed different than ever. um, it gets done of reporting from the dumbass out to the 360 the with scott, you know hughes is up next to and i'll see international. i'll be back with more news in 30 minutes.

the peace and love are 2 pillars of most religions. and yet in 2022, 360000000 questions were persecuted with close to 6000 being killed for their belief in jesus. i'm starting now. he was in on this edition of $360.00 view, we're going to look at why the global persecution of christians around the world has seen a 24 percent increase in the last year. and what is being done to help protect? let's get started. the, the persecution of christians is both a historical and a contemporary concurrence which involves the mistreatment discrimination and

harassment of individuals and communities to identify as a christians or practice christianity. this persecution can take various forms, including violence, imprisonment, discrimination, and restrictions on religious freedom. one of the most known instances which saw a large number of martyrs was during the roman empire as a christians for targeted for refusing to worship a roman gods as well as the emperor. but one would think with the advancement of society of science. so what also the towers of religion, especially one which is considered to be the largest religion in the world, may get nearly one 3rd of the global population. yet today, christianity continues to be the most persecuted religion. with 7 of the top 10 countries known for targeting christians in countries where religion plays a key role in the government and daily life. now, according to open doors, these countries which are dominantly muslim, frequently target, harass,

and terrorize those who profess to be christians. north korea, a predominantly agnostic country, is on top of the open doors list as well as india or hindu mobs are known to target christian nigeria. we're crushing it is the main religion with more than 90. $8000000.00 reside in the country remains the deadliest for believers as the african nation was responsible for almost 80 percent of all christians murdered for their faith this last year. all of this is unacceptable. and i would say this about any religion where its members were being targeted and persecuted for their faith. so i mean out of help find some answers, is jason jones, a film producer, author activist, popular podcast host, and human rights worker. hey, it's present of the humans, right, education organization and the director of the vulnerable people's project. jason jones is also a senior contributor to the stream and the author of 2 books,

the race to save our century and his most recent photos on fire, which was released in 2017 jason's whitestone divided hearts of america. now, playing on fox nation, additional works directly to a homeless people facing genocide and women with crisis pregnancies. thank you so much for joining us. jason. as i could not think of a better person to talk about the persecution of christians around the globe. then you? yeah, scottie, thanks for having jada. have to say our organization is over 20 years old. i found that the vulnerable people project to stand with the most vulnerable people in the world while the world had walked away from them. and i would say the past in the, over the past 2 years, we've shared more folks than we've had in the previous 20 new house been in cash. and you do help people from all religions. but we're talking about christianity. do you think christianity from what you've seen as the most persecutor, religion in the world, and why would that be? yeah, christianity is definitely the most persecuted religion in the world and it will

always be that way. and the reason why is because as christians, we are called to stand with any community that is persecuted. in fact, muhammed weddies setting that he'd be, that mohammed said that if we're as muslims persecuted, always go to the christians. they will defend you. we saw in the late nineties in the early 2, thousands, the ccp was looked into christianity as maybe a religion. they could harness of the state religion. but the reality is as a persecuted other peoples in china, the following gone the most and leaders and others. the christians were always standing with them in hong kong. when you think of the freedom protestors that were being rounded up and detained and disappeared. those are predominantly catholic and why is that? well, because as christians, we order our lives to a transcendent moral order, a truth that is above governments. and we're also called to serve the lease of bees . so in any society, we're, any community is suffering. any community is impoverished,

or any community is facing persecution. we as christians are called to stand with them. so it is inevitable that from now until our lord returns we, as christians will always be the most persecuted group. so then you mentioned a few countries right there. so i wonder why would a question actually wish to live in a country where they know they are more than likely to be targeted and cannot look to the government for protection. you know, that's a really great question. when i was traveling with the past margaret and the war against isis, the kurdish soldiers as they were battling it, i says pushing them out of 1st century christian communities. i had asked many christians that were internally displaced and in camps in iraq. u. curtis stand, and i asked that they had hoped to go to europe the united states, and they said that our family had been here since pretty history since even before the conversion of christianity in the 1st century. and this is their home. and so we work with communities across the world, not only of christians,

but about there's this is their home. this is where the families are from. this is where they had been for centuries and millennia, and they want to stay where their roots are. you looking that's in, in the let's look to right now to ard sock and world is turned its back on the armenian christians of arch soft and in just a little more than a century. later after the armenian genocide, we have another armenian genocide. happening right now in front of the world's eyes and so often in history find that it might have started off there for a christian who might have been welcomed, but obviously regimes change and it's not a welcome village and it just goes through rotations. and so you can see why some families have been there for generations. and i'm glad jason that you're getting into specifics because i also look at some of the specific regions that have are on my radar. what are you know about why despite created being the official religion and nigeria, why is it so deadly for christians in that country? yeah, there are places nigeria of course, so it's very safe to be christians and then there are provinces where we're seeing

that the rise of radicalism, in fact, radical is lines. it's real home isn't even in them. and it's not essential asia it's, it's not even really the most radical islam is not even come out of the middle east . it's come out of africa. do you think of events that i would say? i'm sorry. oh, some of in line and it's been many, many, many years in sudan. and right now we have a civil warranty, dan, again or christians are being persecuted. so in nigeria you see a vero and radical islamist ideology and the christians, they are suffering greatly. 9 out of 10 christian so it will be murder this year will be murdered nigeria, our organization of horrible people. project has a program called the vulnerable parents program. we're. we're providing security cameras and security guards for the most vulnerable christian schools, christian churches, and christian hospitals. in nigeria we, you know paul and his letters to the church in the pod poly letters 9 out of 70 percent of the time when he wrote to tie them to prey. it was to ties into prey

to the persecuted church. and with this perverse ideology of globalism, sometimes needed guided states and even in, in, in, in the other western countries. there's a reaction in the body of christ to say we need to focus at home. but it's christians, it's very important that we are one body. we are one body with the church in india . we are one body with the church and nigeria, we are one body of a church in afghanistan. and if we looked at paul is our example, he says, to pray and fire to the persecuted church. this is our primary responsibility. sure . i'm your maybe your child's prep school and your affluent suburb of boston needs a bigger and better scoreboard a gym. but we have christian children with boons, mining cobalt, to go into electric vehicles. so woke social justice wires in the west can feel virtuous and it is our calling as christians to stand with those people here. there's so much to impact and what you just said i'm, we're going to get to that in the next segment. i do have to ask and we talk about

the christian church and obviously it's one to big a group. or is there a specific so also targeting the catholic church or the orthodox as compared to personally and places like nigeria as compared to more protestant religions. but i do think that catholic social teaching, the magisterial teaching of the church, which is changing, interchangeable, makes us a, a bit more movable. we saw that in hong kong where a lot of the protestant churches quickly took a need to the ccp where it was the catholics and cardinals. then to draw a line in the sand and or not borrowing to the cc piece moves at hong kong. and that's why, of course there been 7 catholic bishops disappeared. elderly, you know, got carlos that lives in his ninety's and in he was charged. you have the most prominent catholic layman in china, maybe the most prominent catholic layman in the world. jimmy lie a billionaire who it was probably spend the rest of his life and die in prison

because he was in movable and had to stand for freedom in hong kong against the ccp . so i do think that that in the catholic church and we have less room to maneuver around towers. and we, we have to just simply say that we, we must, we don't choose, no one choose as to be a modern, you know, one of our church teaches it's a guess. and sadly, it is a guess. the one gets from our lord, when they refuse to bile to the spirit of the age and rather stand with the vulnerable and we're told when you stand with the marble, you're standing with christ himself. why does it seem like there is more hatred towards questions from the muslim majority countries, especially there in the middle east? yeah, well we see that again. i think a lot of this tragically is their reaction to the regime change wars. and it did not make any sense that we were backing militias that were aligned with isis. and

then toward toppling a side where wherever sides forces were pushed back, we started immediate liquidation of the christian communities. and so i do think that there is a natural reaction that you want to kick back at the western powers that be stabilized your machine and all his laughter. sadly, those christian neighbors of yours, i just recently in early august was invited to attend the memorial and nebraska for the survivors. devices that we're using is eda pro, to so many people are there religion is ok. something between pansy and somebody might have to use them. it's a, it's a free abrahamic religion in its original form. and this in the prayers and then the anesthesia is from the z. what they felt most our full about was they felt they were betrayed by their muslim friends and neighbors. see they'd families have been friends with for generations. and this is why is christians, we must always work for peace because when there is more,

there is fear and the worst and human instincts arise. we must always have a preference option for free a piece. it's a trustee, i marxist idea that out of chaos and violence come something better. we can just look back at the history of the we can with the 20th century and a sorrowful short history, the 21st century. and see from all of our wars, all we got was these, these stabilization fan and religious persecution, violence. and we can even see europe being the, stabilize now because of the mass immigration caused by our resume change wars. jason, hold on, stay right there to because after the break we're going to ask jason, why not more is being done by both the government and the christian church itself to help protect their own persecution? the,

[000:00:00;00] the, or, and you can create, use, present is a length, russia and ukraine, or ukraine, where and you create the us m tires. it does as you know, for the world. it is, i mean, it's proven, you know, it's against and we're the global warrant terrace. and it's now we need a new business project or there's a cons. so can you create real pool nato countries and helps and destroy the natives military facilities and military production. the new york ukraine and ukraine means they're just kind of products. nobody cares about

a new cream. they did not care about the ukraine and people not at all the and this morning i was pleased to announce another major rounds of us security assistance designed to meet the phrase urgent federal feel required, a few. okay. he did have it set it up. can you see what 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 we're so shorter is that conflict with the 1st law shows. alignment of the patient, we should be very careful about our personal intelligence at the point, obviously is to place a trust rather than to the area. i mean with artificial intelligence,

we have so many with him in the a robot most protects his phone. existence was on the you are watching the 360 view on your host, scotty. now hughes and we are back with our guest. a film producer author act was popular podcast host and human rights worker jason jones. jason, thanks so much for continuing this conversation. do you feel like the christian charges doing enough to help their brother? and i mean, there are emissions all the time to help members of other religions. should they be focusing more on their own? you know, that's a great question. and i, you know, the answer to that question it's, it's a disgrace. you can drive out of washington dc and you can see some of the historic protestant churches find the rainbow flag, but not

a word for the church. and nigeria not a word for the church in china, and that will work for the church in india or pakistan. pope francis, when there was the genocide of the 1st century christian churches, the churches that were planted by thomas himself on his way through a rock on his way to do in. yeah, of course, um as that community was being wiped from the face of the or you wouldn't hear a prayer from the po for a comment. i don't go to the and so yeah, the church can do much more. i think in the west we have to be very honest as well . for those of us who haven't been swept away by the ideologies of the age, whether you remember the cry they called, or whether you're waiving the rainbow flag. then many of us have just become kind of doubt decadent in, in or looking um, i know that even in my very own church i had just come back from a rock where i walk through the. busy which is where i could smell the burning flash of christians and buildings that were still smoldering. and i came back home when to my parents,

the sunday after returning from iraq and we prayed for isis. we prayed for isis, the god would forgive isis. and i had never heard a single prayer, the chaldeans, the syrians, the kurds, are the, is easier the guy and from my pulpit. and i think that we feel there and there's some way a virtue for standing up for and the other one not standing up for our own. but obviously if we stand up for our own, if we stand out for our own, it's due at the level of our own the we have an understanding of the loved for the other. i can tell you with my work around the world, with muslims with fallen gone with u z d. they'll tell me that i defended them as if i was their own brother. and i said, well, you may feel that way, but i think i would fight for my own sister a little harder. and i spent the past month to the high no. my community of hawaii working to rebuild of my own community. so, love starts at home, and if we don't assign the christian communities of africa, of the middle east of central asia,

if i raise my voice from others lobster for others and other parts of the world, you should trust you should distrust my motives. you should distrust my motives and why have the governments of the world, especially the governments of the west, especially united states state department. i stopped speaking up for christians. they don't believe in religious freedom. they don't believe early read religious freedom to them is not a value they may use freedom to worship and what they mean by that is so long as you're a practical atheist. in a practical materialist, that's fine. you can go to church on sunday, but leave your belief and had transcended world trees. leave your belief and had an anthropology of the human person of significance of, of, of ultimate dignity and worth. you better leave that in a church. don't bring that belief into the politics. don't bring that belief into the workplace. don't bring that into government. and which is upset about that is united states is the only country in the world is founded on an apology. and that

is the declaration principle. we hold these truths to be self evident that all that are, are endowed by their creator with inalienable rights. that is a statement either unique digging into the human person, our republic is the only country in the world. founded on the the allergy. the revealed religious truth, the revealed teaching of a thing to be human person is the foundation of our public. but unfortunately, our leads have of, of, they don't only that, they know, no longer believing that they see that is and that a and is an obstacle as an obstacle to achieving their political goals. but jason, you, you mentioned here on the west side of the how the west versus the united states was formed on certain values. christian values. do you see christians actually being i mean, we can point out to, to the muslim countries, but you see in the, in the united states, christians being persecuted for their believes or limited in how they practice. a lot of people are afraid i was just, i just met with

a man who was very wealthy and very influential. it sits at the time this was this week and sits at the top of a huge financial institution. and he was talking about strategies and ways in which he can come out of the closet and share his religious faith with others. so yes, there is no doubt. we've seen the department of justice weaponized against homeschool catholic families, weaponized against pro life activist weaponized against people again to have brought their faith into the public square. you can keep your faith, you can go to mass on sundays, even go to church on but you can go to bible study on wednesdays. you can do all of that, but do not behave in public like do you believe that or you very well made. find yes, the i standing outside your door, we've seen the ring countless, you know, ring film, video of 26. as the i agent standing outside a 20 year old woman's home who was praying outside of an abortion clinic. and it's,

it's quite frightening. i do believe that people are beginning to wake up and i pray that the pendulum begins to swing in the other direction because it's become literally quite absurd again and this weekend i was with a very prominent man, a former member of congress. while we were together, he, he signed his phone, the f b, i was visiting his house and wanting to talk to him. so we do see religious persecution in the country. we do see the government being weaponized against us. we're living through a cultural revolution like we had in china, you know, in china, they would bring you up on stage in front of the village and they would raise you when you were in 3rd grade. you got an ass in, in history class. when you were a sophomore high school, you got drunk with your friends and, and um, and they would bring up everything you've ever done wrong in front of the entire village. well now we see the mass of yeah being used and

a web to nice and social media isn't the distributive chair, to against people who dare to besides of contradiction. and now what we'd have lost here. and now we have the department of justice being what the next against us. we shouldn't be able to decide for ourselves though. it's a tragedy. but this is quite normal. this is what christians have had to suffer and are suffering throughout history and their suffering that when they arrive, whether suffering now in pakistan and india, they're suffering now in a gerry other suffering. now in most places in the. busy world and so it is a tragedy to see that have taken united states, but it's, we are no longer exceptional and we've just become like everyone else i guess. and it will be real interesting to see who exactly steps up and defends those in the west from persecution. thank you joe. jason jones, let me ask where can people find out more about your project and where could they visit? what am i pod? cast as a jason jone show and if you want to stand with the most vulnerable people in the world for christians at home to we're in chinese occupied,

you start to stay and go to our website, the great campaign dot org. thank you so much for joining us, jason. thanks. now they're out. time village has been seen as a source of good as far as the bad. or is it been found in the name of ones god or lowercase, uppercase god, or lack there of the targeting and torture members of a religious group had been encouraged or even commanded by their liturgy, or even leadership. the most frustrating is to watch one's religion outright campaign against another, which so often little defends by others of the same faith, a pattern which will only be disrupted by divine intervention. to scroll down using this has been your 360 view of the news affecting you. thanks for watching

the . the only one main thing is important for not as an internationally speaking is that is a nation's products are allowed to do anything. all the mazda races, and then you have the mind to nathan, so as a slave, americans rock obama and others have had a concept of american exceptionalism. the international law exist as

long as it serves the american interest. if it doesn't, it doesn't exist by turning those russians. and so it is dangerous boy, a man that wants to take over the world. that was the culture strategy. so the, the new one i exist v i, v, i not leashed it often zuba and tablet block. nato said it's ours. we move east. the reason us, hey jim, it is dangerous. is it the by the sovereignty of all the countries, the exceptionalism that america uses and its international war planning is one of the greatest threats to the populations of different nations. of nature, what is founded shareholders in the united states and elsewhere in large arms companies would lose millions and millions or is business businesses good. and that is the reality of what, what we're facing,

which is fashion. the, the is ready, bombardments were supposedly get at least 50 people over the night proposal death toll from week. the boy in gauze us the pos is 5000. a warning, the following images off discuss the the children by the brands of the devastation is ready strikes with local hospitals. april 12th, a seal is running out to keep the line of the re uniting with relatives in tennessee, a release to a month postage fix it to the press and states. but she,
