it failed the people of rwanda, didn't it?people of uganda, sorry, rwanda, and we failed the people of all sneer, you mentioned earlier. i think what is important here when we talk of the un, we have to be very clear. which un are talking about. there two uns in myjudgement. there is the un that is made up of the member states who sit in the security council, who are the big five, who sit in the general assembly. they have a secretariat and the secretary general, there are mandates and commensurate resources to carry out their mandate. and then there is the un undersecretary general which implements the programme. in rwanda it was extremely difficult to get the member states to move. firstly, rwanda came soon after somalia when the american planes had been shot down and the us withdrew and the western countries who drew along with them. it was at about the same time the rwanda, which at that point, people had thought was doing well, but it fell apart. and no—one wa nted well, but it fell apart. and no—one wanted to send troops

zipline‘s team in rwanda has delivered over 7000 units of blood, flying over 300,000 fully autonomouslometres. and then of those, about 1100 are emergency deliveries, so a delivery where a patient is really relying with their life on receiving that product quickly. the team has been to have a very big impact on the healthcare of a large number of people. what is happening now is that it is possible for states and cities to independently ask for permission to fly, and present their own safety cases for how that can be done in a way that is safe for people on the ground. the new model is a lot quieter than the previous one, in fact in this rural environment, i can actually hear the birds singing to each other more loudly than the drone. and that would no doubt come as great comfort to anyone who is worried about the din of buzzing in the sky when drones start delivering for real. safety will be the highest priority. the zips operate between 40—100 metres up and away from airports, so passenger planes won't be a problem. but what about the risk of drone on drone crashes? whenever any pla

but rwanda has said they never agreed to this deal. once they learned it was a forced deporortation, they were not going to agree to that. now these 39,000 people are in a worse situation. there is protesting here in tel aviv. for the six hours, they thought there was a solution for the. now it is not clear what is going to happen. there is a court case next week. they challenge the old agreement. the prime minister -- the prime minister says the agreement does not hold. >> thank you for that. syria says the last pocket of opposition rebels in eastern ghouta has made a deal for safe passage. that deal brokered by russia says the largest rebel group would leave the main town of duma. other reports say the group is split over whether or not to leave. peter o'brien explains. buses carrying rebel fighters and their families reach a checkpoint leaving the last rebel held pocket near damascus. syrian state media says these buses are evavaating more than 1100 members of the last rebel group in the nation. the syrian observavary for humun righ

them from eritrea who don't don't want to go back to africa they say that even in countries like rwanda and uganda which is one of the ones also being talked about their rights they wouldn't be protected so that made them turn make israel turn to the u.n. and now three countries being touted as these western countries that will be taking in some of israel's african asylum seeking population canada one of the italy and germany the figures we understand around sixteen thousand two hundred fifteen the prime minister saying would be one for one so one of them would go to one of these countries and israel would keep one more details specifics not quite sure how it's going to unfold but certainly israel saying that it's going to look into the status improve the status of them when they're here currently the living conditions are dire and i think interestingly is the language here adrian. all along for the last eight years or so when these migrants asylum seekers have crossed into israel from egypt now of course there's a fence so it's no longer possible they were called illegal infiltrators i

when you look at history and rwanda and bosnia. in theory, these are civil wars. 2 million people died in rwanda. how do we figure out a mechanism to stop innocent team from dying at the hands of their own governments legally? >> very difficult. rwanda is a good example, cambodia is another example. you reach a point in human conflict where conventional means of military intervention and for that matter, diplomatic a enter intervention, and the best you can do amile humanitarian aid, stand back and wait for this thing to burn itself up. and, oh, by the way, as you know, the american military is adverse to casualties. can you imagine that the american forces decided to intervene and fight a street battle. what the consequences might be as far as the american people are concerned. >> don't we have an issue isn't that we seem to have a moral view for the use of chemical weapons. and they've been established as something that they shouldn't be using. i'm been speaking to people all morning who say, wait, we made a rule that they can't

enjoying the storytelling that allows them also to think through the whole of course through the rwanda genocide doesn't only as i can think of where you are where are you on this this notion of you're a you're at an african literature festival how do you feel about being put in the african box. you know i myself i don't mind being an african right i'm an african rate arena but i think if we allow african right does to be many things you know then and african right-o. is somebody other african writers consider to be an african i just use their own both way of saying that let african writers be many things have multiple identities and same thing with off going to torture about you chris when i think you would be if they don't believe i was an african writer then where would i be doing that african writing or selling. for it but no it's i am and. i'm african i'm the jury and i'm a bow on pot english so i am i am this complexities like mccomas same but i'm hot i suppose i am an african right and there's nothing wrong with being that certain so at least with a quick word about the political

and the strange case of the missing athletes at the commonwealth games, competitors from rwanda and uganda are the latest to disappear from their accommodation. the united states and its allies, britain and france, are still weighing up military options against syria. french president emmanuel macron now says his country has proof the assad regime used chemical weapons. translation: we have proof that about ten days ago some chemical weapons have been used, some chlorine at least. and we know that they've been used by the regime been used by the regime of bashar al—assad. in no case will we allow an escalation that could damage the stability of the region. but we cannot let unpunished a regime that believes it has the right to do anything, including violating international law. only on wednesday, donald trump told russia to "get ready" for a strike on syria. today he tweeted this. "never said when an attack on syria would take place. could be very soon or not so soon at all! in any event, the united states, under my administration, has done a greatjob of ridding the region of isis. where i

countries because of humanity, they are not thinking about all the jews in the holocaust, we didn't go to rwanda. i think during that time i thought about oil, oil prices. this was a way the united states was trying to get oil. iraq, does that still influence the decisions we make today? war andnk the iraq president bush's decision to invade and the fact that ultimately there were no weapons of mass destruction found, that is something that continues to resonate in our politics, particularly with democrats, nancy pelosi has made the point that whatever you think about trump, he did not invade iraq. that decision, at least in the view of some democrats, was much more ruinous than anything president trump has done. remains aar touchstone, a huge mistake in the view of many democrats, and continues to influence people's thinking about whether or not to intervene in other conflicts. host: mr. bennett? >> of course it does. was born out of the mistakes made in iraq by george w. bush and president obama. you could draw a straight line from the invasion to mismanagement to some of the decisions the oba

migrants and asylum seekers as are netanyahu initially agreed not to deport thousands of africans to rwanda after the un offered to assist and resettlement the un said it had learned he had gone.

a rwanda looking both tutsis and hutus? trying to make sure there are checks and balances.here are ways of power sharing that are working. so sometimes it might be better, our report finds to have a provisional government that can fix some of these things first. make sure you put those building blocks for democracy in place and then go to the multiparty elections. >> and you said just to follow-up we're not coming in with a whole list of priorities. one of the problems is that the west comes in says we want this, we want this. we want to make you in our image. what do you want? you can't just give the aid. they must at least be able to govern and stamp out corruption. >> i think the first thing is, if you -- first, you have to be realistic. sometimes we look at a country, like somalia. deeply broken, conflict affected, problems with terrorism and migration and the rest of it. the international community says, we have a great plan to turn you into denmark in a short period of time. totally unrealistic. strip back the priorities and make sure they're the country's priorities.

this country would be given two options the one would be to be forcibly deported to either uganda rwanda or to be sent to prison and those there chose to go chose an inverted commas would receive a sweetener are some three and a half thousand dollars as well as a plane ticket but human rights organizations and thousands of israelis over the past few weeks and months have taken to the streets to criticize that announcement what we're hearing now however is in a facebook post by the prime minister he says that he hears the residents of particularly south to live in which is where many of these migrants live and he's putting everything on. temporary hold saying that he's suspending the agreement until he holds talks so a bit confusing at this stage a lot of developments in the last few hours but certainly it does seem as if the israeli prime minister is under a lot of pressure to reach some kind of decision but he's got different parties vying for what they want their decision to be frank christian hansell from the alternative for germany party told us that accepting more refugees is not th

one for rwanda, one for former yugoslavia, and they start developing rules. at that point they are asking questions, what kind of rules should we have? what kind of evidence roles -- evidence rules should we have? and they start going back. there is this mythology, and the mythology is that tokyo was unfair. nuremberg was fair. by tokyo i mean the minor trials , and the minor trials in germany as well. and they have this general thought, they don't go so far as to actually take into the evidence rule. they just develop their own and do it basically on a continental practice, what you do in civil law courts. that becomes the rules of the international criminal court because the united states is never in the game, even though we worked on developing the the court, we do not join that treaty, ok. there is some writing going on by the people who are developing the rules, and they say in passing, should we look to nuremberg or procedural roles? and, let me move it up, ok, here. there we go. ok. and so i am going to fast-forward to new york in 1999. somebody asked
