And border town of the seine and theyre saying that they have been turned back whove also been talking to one resident on the other side of the boat and us into not being allowed to cross into gold mine appears that the border has been closed but then its important to note that weve not hired a new word from the. From the round of forest tees with the statement from the presidency of the democratic republic of congo and it says that if this is true to unilaterally this is a decision that was made unilaterally and the congolese authorities deplore this decision which runs counter to w. H. O. Recommendations not to close borders we are also seeing media reports from both countries that the border is closed but again very important.

The front runner spot was joe bidens to lose any plan to win or go down fighting in debate one comolli harris attacked biden got a boost in the polls. On the way in to debate to easy minutes later on question one he has sailed her plan for publicly funded health care the senators had several plans for you cant be president trying with double talk on this plan we are now paying 3 bill a trillion dollars a year for health care in america over the next 10 years its probably going to be 6 trillion dollars we must then inside detroits fox theater came an avalanche of counterattacks on immigration it looks like one of us has learned the lessons of the past and one of us hasnt on criminal justice because you stood up and used that tough on crime phony rhetoric that got a lot of people liked it but destroyed communities like mine and on Climate ChangeWashington State governor jay inslee called bidens plan in adequate his disagreement with his response with me it did.

Secretary of state mike pompei o has met his chinese counterpart meeting of Southeast AsianForeign Ministers and bangkok the 2 are believed to have discussed issues including trade and security on peo is also meeting with members to reassure them of washingtons commitment to the region as a visit to bangkok as the 1st stop in a week long trip that will also include australia and micronesia. China as preventing a many of its citizens from traveling to taiwan the decision to stop issuing travel permits will affect people from 47 mainland cities which one of you is taiwan as a breakaway province and tensions between beijing and taipei have been rising in recent months when haye has more from shanghai. In the 1st half of this year more than 600000. 00 people from china visited taiwan so this decision will certainly have an Economic Impact and that seems to be the motivation behind it to apply pressure on the government in taiwan led by president sighing when who very much opposes the one china principle we have the election 2 coming up in january next year and theres no doubt that the government in china would prefer to see a more pro beijing person in office in taipei the decision also comes after some fairly provocative events recently we had the latest arms sale announced by the United States to taiwan worth more than 2000000000. 00 that certainly angered beijing there was a visit also by president sighing when to some caribbean nation some of the few countries that still have diplomatic relations with taiwan on her way there and back she stopped off in the United States words which also angered the government in china and the government in taiwan is also offered to provide sanctuary to protesters in hong kong who have been rallying against their own government and also increasing influence from beijing. That u. S. Central bank has cut its main Interest Rate for the 1st time and 11 years in an effort to boost spending the head of the Federal Reserve says hes concerned about the Global Economic slowdown and the trade war between the u.

Trade around the world as a result we conflation in the United States his argument seems to be look the u. S. Economic indicators are humming along why dont we just give them a little bit of a boost with this quarter percent rate cut he denied any political pressure but we do know the dog has been pushing for a rate cuts from. If i had larger than this one that is because clearly dont trust once the economy to keep on expanding into the 2020 Economic Cycle drone pilot 1st saying that he didnt see this is a long succession of rate cuts but then he clarified that suggested that there may be more rate cuts to come perhaps all job will get him more rate cuts simply because of his Economic Policy the uncertainty over trade as a result of his trade wars and trade rhetoric but also the Economic Policy that prioritized enormous cuts for the wealthy and corporations and not Sustainable Investments into the u. S. Economy itself so he he may yet get his his rate cuts but he wont so much. The Israeli Army Says its killed a palestinian man who crossed the garza fence to shoot at soldiers the military says 3 of that soldiers were injured its also reporting that it targeted a nearby hamas military post during the incident. Now turkeys defense minister says his country will set up a socalled safe side and Northern Syria where the without the u. S. And nato allies will resume talks in an effort to reach an agreement but as they know how the reports from gaza and southeastern turkey divisions between them randi. More soldiers arrived at already heavily fortified positions the show of force coinciding with turkey repeatedly warning it might carry out a possible cross border operation its military wants a safe zone inside the y. P. G. Controlled area in northeast syria it considers the Syrian Kurdish armed group a threat to its National Security but it is also an ally of the United States which has warned turkey against taking any unilateral military action we know that there are officially 2500. 00 u. S. Soldiers and nearly 220. 00 u. S. Military facilities in the region so in case of a military operation there is a risk that. Not all militaries come face to face there has been a marked increase in u. S. Army patrols close to the border with turkey in what seems to be a message to its nato ally they have deep disagreements this fight months of discussions over the creation of the zone turkey does not just want to wipe e. G. To disarm and withdraw from the border area it wants control of the zone thats at least 30 kilometers deep and would stretch from the syrian town of gerard loss to the iraq border that would include why peachey controlled cities and towns like oh bani commission.

Kate it is also not satisfied with the buffer Zone Solutions proposed by the United States those proposals reportedly involve a zone with a depth of 10 kilometers that excludes the main Population Centers along the border. Right e. G. Supporters have held protests against a possible turkish takeover saying theyll only accept an internationally enforced zone in turkey and the Syrian Opposition say areas under y p g control are historically hours and a proposed zone means millions of refugees can return to syria. Turkey dependent. Or russia so i. Say that it is hard to make a prediction about. Steps. Cooperation with russia has allowed turkey to clear the white b. G. From at least 2000 square kilometers along its border since 2016 but russia doesnt seem to want turkey to increase its influence in syria it says any safe zone needs the consent of the authorities in damascus for now it is under u. S. Control but if u. S. Policy shifts how long that will remain the case is unclear jennifer there.

Well those are the headlines on aljazeera the stream is coming up next thank you for watching. We. Give to the people would be a workshop. Apologize for someone its also terrorizing. Newsmakers the stories that matter. I have any ok. Youre in the stream today in hawaii well protest helped save a sacred summit well look into the controversy over the proposed construction of a 1000000000. 00 telescope at hawaii here and we want to know what do the monuc here protests mean to you share your thoughts with us via twitter or in our live youtube chat. Meineke here is more than just the tallest mountain in hawaii for some native hawaiians the summit represents the realm of the creator but probusiness groups and scientists interested in boosting hawaiis Tech Industry what monuc here to also house what would be the Largest Telescope in the Northern Hemisphere known as the 13 Meter Telescope or t. M. T. The project has for years drawing criticism because its proposed location is considered to be one of the most sacred sites for native hawaiians for more than 2 weeks protesters have been blocking construction vehicles from entering the mountains access road i dont choose they why is governor david de announced an extended deadline for telescope construction to start before september 2021 where protesters on the mountain call themselves the or protectors they say their current struggle is yet another chapter in a long history of Racial Discrimination and the denial of indigenous rights by the state so with us to talk about these issues and hilo hawaii hello uppish otop president of malik here and im a ho or. People who pray for the mountain but as a Cultural Organization that advocates for the protection of monaco and honolulu david copper and staff attorney with the native Hawaiian Legal Corp also in honolulu blaze love a reporter whos been covering the 30 Meter Telescope story for Honolulu Civil Beat we also reached out to officials in the hawaii government as well as representatives from the 30 Meter Telescope project to join our program and they said they were unavailable to comment at this time so welcome to the rest of us like to bring in our community right away and start with this tweet we got from Christopher Chan who tries to put this all in perspective for those who might be new to this story christopher says the telescope can be built anywhere in the hemisphere with roughly the same media logical conditions why on secret land colonial hubris is whats holding science back not native people were protecting a cultural place and their ancestors so strong words right there kilo are for you what do you see these actions on mount and someone called them protests others we call them protections but what do they look like for you. You know this is this is why these version joining all these global networks. From you know. The that are actually pushing back on the colonial and im going to say corporate. Structure. Pressing humanity. This is what i think it is about its about raising the standard of aloha and couple aloha because that is our cultural way and unleashing the piece. From our from our cultural. Kana you are protesting protecting us money here. Pretty much every day youre not there right now but what are you doing can you explain can you set the scene can you describe what would normally be around you and what the anus well you know theres theres global chiari there from all the different imans you know im just weve just been doing it for a really long time so were recognised in that way weve been doing the legal aspects as well on many levels but basically when it comes down to it were all just joining together steen and couple aloha raising the standard of the law for a whole day and the world every people every people Indigenous Peoples and everyones indigenous to somewhere have a gift to give and i think a little has one of our gifts and. Its time for us to unleash that in the world. To raise a killer has a beautiful way of describing what she is doing but as you as a reporter have to do tonight exactly what do you see what is going on people lying in front of construction vehicles how are you carrying this story for your audience. As a reporter we really need to. You know get both sides but i think with what the protectors are doing there on the mountain its a very peaceful demonstration its also very well organized demonstration thats one of the points i want to hit is that there are utilized. Public Relations Company governments would use but. Only when there is a better the. Cost of the project and the government. Showing. Demonstrating. So on the other side of the debate are people like peter peter here is on twitter who says the 38 Meter Telescope is essential for scientific scientific advancement and discovery its not a resort condos a tourist trap strip mall or anything such as that its a Research Institution with science under siege around the world my home state should stand up to defend it david youve been involved in at least 3 lawsuits surrounding mounted what is at the heart of them and this point from peter is is this one of the issues. Well the heart of all of the legal disputes around the mona came out really is this idea that native pointing culture and rights appear to be foreign in their homeland and like peter. Views this as a battle of science versus peace but whether you really it is recognizing that the people from hawaii the people who are holy consider this place to be sacred in their beliefs are intitled to be held and in a high esteem like science like Everything Else it is not subordinate to this idea that we need to have science in progress and and really it comes down to holding these beliefs these practice this is being important their Constitutional Rights they should be honored protected and not just considered another road block reconstruction can no i add in oh yeah i just sat in there because you know this idea that its why and against science is really a canard and it needs to be addressed here because really what this movement is about is raising indigenous fois we are indigenous also more 1st nation people and our our knowledge our wisdom that this millennia old busy is a sphere of science and what were doing here is actually reaching out to science to say science we need to do better because basically destroying the earth destroying where were living isnt it isnt the way to go about it you know mama care is is. It contains the biodiversity of a viking because what hes endangered species top of the world every species is either where threatened and or danger up there and plants and animals also protecting our waters so saying yes to Development Means were saying no to all of these things so i really want to break that canard because its its really not correct i want to show that youve got. Yes i think. Media also has a role to play in a scene in the National Media the narrative is that this is native koran versus science and maybe its a local extent local media also have a part to play in this i think journalists around the world especially in great need to do a better job of telling that story and i think local media has done a better job in the National Media breaking that narrative that it isnt just lines for society this is this is a very complex issue theres a lot of moving parts and is a much more nuanced and thats simple given the examples that nuanced than that. For example. You know you could say its neat appliance versus science but its not needed florida versus science a lot of the native lions on the mountain monaco are opposed to science a lot are opposed to the event some of them say they could be moved to spain in the Canary Islands a lot of them are scientists themselves theres also cultural issues that play issues of heritage this for a lot of the protesters on monaco this is just the latest event in a long line of unfortunate events that started with the overthrow of the Foreign Government the way the United States came in its all these things. Coleading and what t. M. C. Has become a symbol for which is. You know so many of your approach and of the dimmest people you know plays it so interesting that you mention that and kilo i also mention that because we got a comment from someone via video who talks about having to choose being forced to choose because of the way this narrative has has come out in media this is a roar a ph d. Student in honolulu and here is her take on it i am not involved in their action on monica yant and watching concern it happen through writing challenging the dehumanizing narrative resistance to t. N. T. Action im not here. Reflects. The winds that are antiscience. This is just how its been preached read. Until recently in the community and i have deep concerns over this training because its affected not only me and my peers to students who worked with and forced people to feel as if they have to take sides when it comes to taking sides kyllo you must understand this struggle because you yourself are a telescope systems specialist youre there consulting talk to us about that dichotomy having to be forced to take sides. I understand this and i do i really appreciate your is not all her philosophy here and for her to express that struggle the thing is like i said its a canard this idea that. I mean basically the racism in it is for them when the they call this in court they call this backward looking extremists now those are hot bed words and the irony is is that astronomy itself is based on. Looking back in time right looking back towards the origin of the universe when you look back and then and actually astronomy has the issue to prove that it has modern relevancy because some of the things were looking out there are say 200000000 years. Light years away that means it happened to whatever event were looking at now the light took 200000000 light years to get years to get to us so thats kind of the dichotomy were actually looking at but shes correct in assessing that were having to defend not only our cultural rights which should be protected not only by the United States constitution even though we challenge u. S. Occupation here but us constitutional provisions as well state provisions that i was speaking about these are premises you know supreme rights that should be honored dave just. Gets lost in
