r r jack is a peace activist who was detained in south sudan and forced to flee the country. he explained why this visit is significant. i have great hope for, for the visit of the pope and the other 2 religious leaders, the archbishop of canterbury and the moderator of the church of scotland. this visit is very historic and as we should not see it from the lens of the leaders alone, we should see at what does this mean for the people of house with that, what does it mean for the faith of christian faith in 1000 student and what it means for the catholic church, i do believe this is historic visit and it will have him when the mentors impact i among our people and in our country. if you would see the crowd that gather it earlier today at the john ground was muslim. and since yesterday, when the 2, the 3 leaders arrived in google, they, they had their well coming from the population has just been absolutely amazing. ah, the, the, the, the number or the sheer number of people gathered at john graham was liam is something that has not happened since away independent. and i think this is really where the impacts they impact should not be about the leader. what would be that is due for the leaders, but what it will do for the people about the pope and the religious leaders by coming to his house were done at a time when the war leaders have nearly forgotten the suffering of the people whose house done that they have empowered our people and they have powered the church leaders. and i think together the people and the cheerleaders. united, particularly the youth and the women. these will be the renewal that the holy father has been talking about since he embark on this trip. thousands of israelis had been out protesting against their government for 5th successive saturday. benjamin netanyahu coalition is the most right wing and israel's history. and there's widespread anger about his proposals to weaken the powers of the supreme court. m. ron con reports from west jerusalem. hans again, tens of thousands are out on the streets across israel, protesting against that government. here in western islam are outside the president's house, hoping to be heard. however, the numbers are far smaller than in previous weeks. ah, every saturday they gather, calling this right when government a threat to democracy in the rule of law. because it's a coalition built around, openly fall right parties. it's worth noting these protests a, just about israel. not many here are talking about the palestinians, the still peace process, all continued occupation. although their numbers are significant, they don't appear to represent the majority of israel society. i think right now it is a vocal minority. we don't know what the majority of israelis believe because the issues we're dealing with, a very complex and the people we seeing protesting our people in the economic world . high tech lawyers, a journalist, people who feel the threat to understand what this means for the change of israel's legal regime. a and the demise of israelis, of israel's democracy, of moving on the path of hungary and poland. and perhaps other countries that have moved into an, a, a system of weakening our democracy the governments less than 2 months old and therefore too early for polling data. but it would seem, the majority of the electorate still supports the government of benjamin netanyahu . i need on their machinery. i am supporting the changes this government makes this country isn't moving or people who aren't letting it move. they must give this government a chance to change. thanks. hello, i'm right wing. the government should be a right wing one as well. never even the protesters, no, they're in a minority right now, but they all hoping that will change and will become more mainstream. but he, that still means hard line conservatives. then game for the protest is to force a new election. now they may well succeed in doing that and they may well even get rid of some of the far right elements that make up the current coalition. however, if previous governments or anything to go by then that hard line, conservatism will still remain m ron calling
