yes yes on one hundred shows a helpless africa and africa does not that's not capable of addressing his own problems on its own yes on the other hand it also shows an africa whose clearly understands how your politics works understands exactly the influence that the chinese have on the african continent and the fear that united states and european allies alike want to counterbalance that chinese influence so if the americans are getting involved in this campaign it could be on two fold firstly it could be to can the influence that was once lost one and also to don't forget uganda like so many other countries that cross the african states are now a wash with oil so that in itself could be an incentive and gender when you think about it it's interesting is that you know this new kind of new neo colonial wave you know the united states western europe china is it turning into a playground for outsiders again and this film again well really it's a so amazingly sentimental about what the west should do ok and you know in the west doesn't have a good record in africa let's all remember that. w

well i think the problem while the west has a mixed record in africa as africa has a mixed record as history has a mixed record i think that it's too simplistic to suggest that either we're going to be militarized or either we should do business or we should just do humanitarian issues or maybe we should just promote democracy in fact u.s. policy does all of those things it's a serious policy and it's a robust and holistic policy and we should be doing more i think it is not the uganda situation i just have to say and the support for the regional countries to try to pursue and arrest kone or kill colony as it may be is not about oil that effort has been going on since two thousand and two when the u.s. started sharing intelligence that helped lead to coney being dislodged in fact from northern uganda which is not kicked out unfortunately in this film because it is simplistic but i don't think our analysis of u.s. policy should be equally simplistic it is far more complex we're trying to do many things at once and we are trying to develop a holistic approach for instance dealing with

well i think people know slightly more about africa it exposes africa for its frailties and its issues which are still synonymous with the continent sadly but i think it puts africa back on a spotlight i mean the numbers of people that have watched the video only celebrates that fact but again it's also shows that africa has to look at itself in the right kind expose its own stories in the fashion i think the wishes of course you can see quite clearly that you've done the things that there's been a little damage to its reputation moving forward which is why they're going to create a campaign now to show exactly what the current situation is uganda is right now to sort of counter this massive exposure which sadly show you some out of america and somebody will make a documentary about the reactions to this documentary many thanks to my guests today in london paris and in washington and thanks for viewers for watching us here to see you next time and remember rostov because. if you. start. to see the old still. you know how sometimes you see a story and it seems so for life you think you

as a matter of fact, donald payne traveled to africa, east africa, west africa throughout his career, and he knew all of these countries on the continent and he knew the leaders, past and present. as a matter of fact, don didn't wait for a could he delve a lot of people to be -- codel of a lot of people. don would get on the airplane, a one-person codel and travel, set up his own meetings with the leaders of those countries, talk with them about what was taking place in those countries and get such an understanding of what needed be done and coupled all of this with the history of the countries of africa. he was a teacher, he was a historian and so he knew a lot about the backgrounds of these countries because he studied that and so when he couplehood that information with what was going on at the present time that he was visiting and working on the issues in those countries, he made it all come together and he helped us all to understand. he was our got g-to person. when we wanted to know what was going on and some people who were not that involved in foreign afasde in africa, they j

on religion, the middle east and north africa have the highest scores in both regions. one of the findings is that the restrictions, government restrictions on region in the middle east and north africa, were on the rise in the years before the revolution called arab spring. we do not make a claim that the restrictions on religion coming from governments and their tightening was the cause of arab spring. it's an important part of the context to understand the forces active in the region today. as we looked at the data. and different religious groups that were impacted by the restrictions and hostilities one interesting finding in the middle east and north africa, was that muslims themselves faced harassment from government and others in society in a larger share of countries than did christians or jews. so it's often the minority faiths, the minority muslim groups in a country that are facing the problem. so it could be the sunnis in a difference majority country. one question we looked at in our data is whether or not government restrictions are self re-enforcing. do m

one of the consequences was economic life in africa was completely distorted. as the slave trade grew, the political and economic infrastructure of africa had to be reorganized in order to accommodate this new kind of economic activity. entire societies were transformed from traditional ways of functioning to slave catching societies and the entire lives of people were organized around making war and capturing people to sell in the sl

it had never got into the kind of levels you salt in east africa and southern africa or the community in the united states and europe and there's different reasons for both of those and i will take them one at a time. so, the congo and in most of sub-saharan africa boys are circumcised either at birth or they go to the initiation ceremony of adolescents, and that is as deep and ancient tradition in this society is as it is for muslims, and in the places where male circumcision was routine, hiv never got beyond one or two or 3% because the foreskin is much more vulnerable to hiv and other parts of a man's body and as a consequence, you have a persistent low level epidemic in the basis. as the years go on and the transports moving into the movement continues to become more efficient, hiv makes its way over to east africa into ugonda closest to lake victoria and in those places men are circumcised and that is because they are from a different ethnic tradition rather than coming over from nigeria and west africa they came from sudan and down the nile valley so you have millions of men cir

chinese exports to africa have outgrown u.s. exports to africa by a more than 3-to-1 ratio. why does 245 matter? why does it matter if american companies are losing out? frankly, africa is a continent of unor must opportunity. out of the ten fastest-growing economies in the last decade, six were in sub-saharan africa. part of why i lay this groundwork to start this colloquy is to help folks who are watching at them to help our colleagues understand why senator durbin has taken the lead in making sure that we focus america's efforts on strengthening our exports to africa, a continent of enormous opportunity. senator durbin? mr. durbin: the commerce department estimates that we can create jobs here in america, capitalizing on the opportunities in africa. and that's a good starting point in the midst of recession, to know that in delaware and arkansas and pennsylvania and illinois there are jobs to be created, good-paying jobs right here at home, taking advantage of these export markets. the chart that senator coons has brought to the floor at this point indicates the dramatic

and ghana has proven to be a model for africa in terms of its democratic practices. i very much appreciate the efforts that president mills has taken not only to ensure fair and free elections, but also to root out corruption and increase transparency and make sure that government is working for the people of ghana and not just for the few. so, we're very appreciative of those efforts. in addition, ghana has become a wonderful success story economically on the continent. in part, because of the initiatives of president mills. you have seen high growth rates over the last several years. food productivity has been up. that trade benefits folks back home in the united states as well. in fact, the president's government recently is collaborating with a number of american businesses to build infrastructure inside of ghana, which will create thousands of jobs here in the united states. the trade that we engage in creates jobs for tens of thousands of people back in ghana. that's a good news story. what we also have been able to do is collaborate with the ghanan government

fact that we all recognize that much of the muslim world and certainly the middle east and north africa is living under authoritarian regime of some sort, yet we've seen a greater tendency towards moderation represented by that movement. so here i want to address the factors that led to that. so those are my two general points. so let me begin with the first one. so the panelist titled "how repression breeds religious extremism and how religious freedom does the opposite ." here i'll speak in the context of the arab spring rather than movements at large. the premise of the question is this -- that the political context shapes how religious movements, or islamist movements behave. they're strategies, tactic, perhaps ideological orientation is malleable and determined in some way or another by the political context. so the organizers or the people who drafted this title do not take an essentialist view of these groups, they do not see them as forever bound by this hostile, fanatical ideology, but really see them as being malleable shaped by the political context. i agree and commend you f

but africa is learning fast.uropean expertise and from european mistakes. >> it is a learning moment for business people to understand that things can change and we must be prepared, all of us. and then taking experience of what has happened in portugal. >> there is so much more to africa than famine and war. for european unemployed this is a land of opportunity. >> we have the latest sports. russell. potentially difficult run to the pitch for bolton. >> very difficult indeed, tim. they are in a relegation battle. they will return to the premier league to play blackburn rose just s one nearly lost his life against north london. you may want to see the pictures. his heart, we believe, start for 78 minutes. he was resuscitated on the pitch and it was distressing for everybody on the ground to see the treatment that he was receiving. but the manager has been chatting to his players and said f you don't feel ready it play this match so soon i understand but it looks as if everybody was they are able to play and the m

have to ask ourselves the question why this sudden interest in uganda why the sudden interest in africa and when you're calling for military invasion or intervention in a sovereign country we really really have to question the motives of the united states we have to question the motives of the european powers and certainly of invisible children this organization that put together this documentary now when you're calling for a military intervention in my opinion it smacks of the white man's burden basically saying there's this evil man in africa that african people are defenseless they cannot rise up against him on their own and they need us to come in and be some white saviors in uganda you know i think it's very interesting also that six million people have died in the democratic republic of congo in a little over a decade why have we not heard about this how come most people when you ask them will not be aware of this holocaust well it's because the united states has benefited greatly from this proxy war in the congo every cell phone every computer needs cold hand in order to function

there were millions of people who came together to see south africa free. but i was heartened by the day i finally met man deli la, -- mandela. when he was freed from south africa, win to sam bea, where he went to meet the anc. i was placed on the delegation with bill gray, heading the delegation. and our job was to go to see if this is now time to lift the sanctions, and i remember, i'm going to meet nelson mandela, and i had spent so many years saying "free man della. " free my brothers and sisters in south africa. never met man della. suddenly that morning i'm standing in the line and then i'm right there. and bill gray said, sir, i would like you to meet congressman ron dellums from california. and you know, this did my impression of man del lamp he did this double take and he goes, ronald dellums. we have heard much of you. you gave us hope. you kept us alive. and we hugged each other, and if i were to live to be 1,000 i would never forget the incredible joy and warmth i felt in that moment. a lot of jokes about politics and politicians but i want you

want to europe or the world they want this world to continue but china has a lot of contracts in africa china has become a very appealing partner for a number of african countries because it's not involved in africa in the same parasitic way that the united states is involved with these multinational corporations from europe are involved they actually provide much better terms which you know is really more about mutual cooperation so i think it has a large part to do also with countering china's growing influence in uganda and throughout africa that's an interesting argument i haven't heard that one yet what do you think i mean if the u.s. did get you know stay on top of this and decide to get more involved what impact do you think it could have in terms of bringing stability to what is very much right now a conflict ridden country. well it would bring stability is going to bring stability under imperialism is going to bring stability under you know basically subjugation to u.s. interests and you know they are going for this we see it because afrikan was launched a couple of years ago t

in south africa and a few other countries, it's a crime to do that.h price of soup, it's a very common crime. what's a fin worth? a large one can cost thousands of dollars. and the black market in fins is tough to police, because most of the sharks are caught in international waters, where there's no law against finning. but on land, laws can be enforced. in cape town recently, authorities raided several processing plants owned by hong kong chinese. seven tons of fins were confiscated. this is only a small fraction of the whole. and after you've seen those fins laid out, have another look, as we did, at sharks doing what sharks do-- at a cow shark weaving through an underwater forest; at the perfect geometry and grace of a blue shark in cold, clear water. it's not the shark's fault that we've demonized him for so long. besides, we need our demons; they've been with us, in our minds, as long as gods. so the next time you're in a chinese restaurant and feel like some soup, why not stick to the egg drop or the wonton? give the shark a break. >> since our

trade the family of chris mcmanus -- in north africa. the family of chris mcmanus issued a statement. hostage rescues are always risky operations, this case ended tragically. >> it has become clear that david cameron did not consult the italian authorities before he gave the go-ahead for the operation. we asked the italian senator what the italians won a to hear from mr. cameron. >> -- wanted to hear from mr. cameron. >> we are absolutely sure that he was very sorry about what happened. we just want an explanation to know why we have not been informed. with all the understanding, we are ready to give, but to understand. >> our political correspondent outlined the british government's reaction. >> there is a suggestion emerging from rome that there has been a breach of diplomatic niceties. downing street did not put in a call to rome during thursday to suggest that this was a rescue mission that should start straight away. a statement from the british prime minister's office acknowledging that the call was not made. they say that they are

i think we're seeing comparable advances, potentially in africa in farming. can you describe how this rfa will further help usaid innovation agenda and helping universities here at home and how this particular budget request advances science technology and innovation at usaid? sorry the long question. i know you can handle it. >> thank you, senator kuntz and thank you for your extraordinary leadership and council on this range of issues. i think the basic premise around your question about, how do we drive the most significant transformational results in an environment where budgets are tight is we have to lower the cost structure of doing our work and we have to literally invent new solutions that make extraordinary things possible. that happened a couple of times in our history, in the '60s and the '70s, the green revolution, as senator lugar has talked to me about, happened in part because of great new technology s created by scientists. in that case, dr. forman borelock. oral rehydration solution which since then has saved 11 million children because of i

in the beginning it was like i was starving and here i am in central africa on a bicycle when i was ninety ninety one now i work of genocide investigator looking at one of the things that we have to look at is the role of people like myself like invisible children like john printed graph and you see in the film dating another couple of wide net is that no one in the u.s. government is going to do enough to stop this problem or do enough he's mentioning the word enough enough is his organization enough it's funded by the intelligence sector but center for american progress than for american progress that's going to five or three organizations to create black around central africa one of these is stand taking action now one dollar for another one is invisible children on uganda the other one is the resolve group also i'm uganda and see hope for the congo that they raise rates hope for the congo that's another one all funded by the intelligence that there by the center for american progress and junker in the grass is the intelligence director in one thousand nine hundred with an intell

military action in africa where we are already there when a writer and you say that this film is full of lies what is not true about the film for example that tony has thirty thousand children in his army this is not true over the last twenty six years of kone military actions against the government of uganda there have been supposedly thirty thousand children abducted i would look at them it's not clear because seventy the president of uganda is responsible for genocide in northern uganda and he needs coney to be able to justify continuing u.s. support and military support and now sending in troops which we've been doing for quite some time and one of the lies in the film is that tony is not supported by anyone tony has an office in washington d.c. the united states government has direct connections to coney that they want to get rid of this guy to get rid of him very quickly are you telling me that in twenty two well we don't have the sophisticated satellite technology to track down a single african warlord in africa nonsense would it benefit him be in you in the guy we supported yo
