Us on is there a start another day another Missile Launch by the North Koreans what are they trying to do here. Well we should always remember that when north korea carries out. Theyre always overdetermined they have more than one cause so well hear certainly that theres messaging involved with a possible a coming restart of negotiations with the u. S. Over the nuclear ization i would also argue that theyre simply testing the deployment in the fielding of no operational capabilities were not sure what it is yet could be the case 23 could be a c. M. S. Systems could be Something Else we dont know yet well find that out later but theres also of course internal messaging as well this is a way for kim jong un to send a message to his military that even though diplomacy may be ongoing commitment also still values his military and their capabilities right and its interesting timing because it comes a day off to south korea decided to actually end this intelligence sharing pact with japan because of tensions between the 2 countries yeah thats correct theres certainly a sort of wink and a nod to that in the. Agreement between japan and south korea that underscores i think the fragility of the alliance between the u. S. South korea and japan and thats obviously something that i think im going on wants to remind everyone of the you know hes happy about how this worked out. Because ultimately. The South Koreans and the japanese vie the South Koreans ending this intelligence sharing pact with the japanese that is the North Koreans who benefit from this lack of cooperation between those 2 u. S. Allies is it not. Yeah thats correct and its a sign of fragility between the u. S. South Korea Alliance even though south korea and the u. S. May spin it differently. Thats simply not the case it is a sign of friction or at least the differences of perception of interest between the u. S. And south korea that redounds the benefit of going on and of course also beijing estimation we thank you for your time on this that mason richie live and self thank you.

Forced out of School Violence robs nearly 2000000 children of an Education West and Central Africa why on droops attack in that school and what come be done to ensure kids learn and thrive this is inside story. Hello and welcome to the program im hashem how about our Summer Holidays are almost over for children in the Northern Hemisphere but many kids wont be returning to class in west and Central Africa the u. N. Childrens fund says armed groups targeting schools teachers and students unicef says more than 9000 schools in the region have closed due to violence 3 times the number of the end of 2017 which means nearly 2000000 children are missing out on an education the unicef report examines increasing threats and attacks in 8 central and west african countries nearly half of the schools closed in cameroon where more than 600000 children are not going to classes in mali attacks on schools doubled between 2017 and this year in Central African republic the number rose by more than a 5th. And School Closures due to violence have gone up 6 falls in book in a fossil molly and nisha. Lets bring in our panel in johannesburg patti nachle chief of the unicef Africa Services unit and the lead author of the report in akra ghana joke or America Executive director of the west Africa Network for peace building and in my degree nigeria my. Teacher based in borno state welcome to you all but so were talking here about an increasingly alarming situation but what about the main cause is it instability of the violence or a combination of different other factors. Well basically we have 1900000 children being pushed out of their education being pushed out of School Across 8 countries in western Central Africa for in security reasons for violence as well as threats of violence i myself for instance visited to put in a fossil a few weeks back and there the what we see is that the reasons most of the schools are closing is because of threats of violence they see that that schools have been attacked in other villages there are rumors that are coming through that this school will also be attacked so basically children are kept home and in often it is the case as well obviously you know entire villages are being displaced because of that fear of attacks so we have a combination of think the root cause is insecurity and it is fear and that is making parents keep their children at home rather than sending them to school to clinica why is this fear gaining momentum in different parts of the west and central. Africa i think the 1st thing is to upload it that is the cycle when you have the levels of. The standard of education that we have in west africa especially you look at the increase number of militants and violent extremists then you begin to now make a connection between what has happened in the past and what is happening today so if you look at. Region like the not east and part of nigeria we have elite literacy level is over 65 percent Little Wonder why we have the issues relating to volunteer stream is in the diary john and now what happens is that when you have a level of illiteracy that we have which increases the number of out of School Children especially be male children they go on a fact all these lives and then the education of banda continue to go down on daily basis so the nexus between these and what happens within the disaster. Curity. Is what you begin now to imagine not just about today but even about tomorrow so if you look at what has happened over time thems of the standard of education and what is happening today need to wonder why we have what we hope. My do in my jugglery an area that has been targeted many times in the past by book give us an idea about challenges you face and daily basis to convince families to send their kids back to school and do not if we know we have been challenge and our target then was teach us over to total 500. 00 teach us our being cute wearing to try to cut it here in the open 50000. 00 a cup dusty there we have to run for our lives we migrated to the rural areas in different areas later extended to ride it out it started attempting killing teachers there we need to come back to about it where we showed the little mall security personnel coming back to the rear of the infant us schools who are being burnt on daily basics teach school been attacked in university it is hard to be clues down on shouldnt do not have access to scoot over time before the introduction of distorted i could use to be on duty if before we now have to duck to send out some of the militant into bach to put it down knowing the obama sent us was done when we started our work to start it at work and started calling but today that see the education cannot wait that we have to come back to school that were not the root cause of if you thought their thought this book is. Because it literally is the photos to reduce it to 10 years to come back to school because one cannot which does what weapons id look at in the past see year with 4 talks about girls like boko haram saying that western education kababs islamic values then it begs the question about the namath task if ace in the future to convince local communities that that argument advanced by those groups doesnt hold ground. Yes we know this this is across the countries that we have been looking at that education what is perceived as western style education is at the bottom or the core of some of the conflicts in those countries which is why as unicef we try very much to work hard with the local community with the local community and to come up with local solutions because unless the local community is with us and feels that the education is coincides with their values then you know these these solutions are not going to work we have introduced for instance in nigeria we basic Education Skills and education curricula in quranic schools we work with local community elsewhere as well to make sure that that parents are involved in the education of their children this is not a solution that had that can be imposed from from the exterior we work very much with with Community Based solutions and that is really one of the solutions that we have to scale up and work harder at as we move forward if we are to respond to this very concerning situation as as one of your guests was previously saying education is very much key i spoke to one priest in northern in Northern Book in a fast saw a few weeks ago who was telling me that without education there is no development and this is these are in many cases parts of the world that are severely underdeveloped that have a huge issue with children not accessing school to begin with out of school the number of up to School Children for instance in mali and elsewhere is very high and you that you add to that the attacks on the schools and the attacks on the education and you see how that situation is actually compounding in the Ripple Effect of that is not only going to be felt today in the Current Situation for these children but also for their families and their communities moving forward if you dont educate a child today whats going to happen to that child when he or she grows up as an adult and therefore. Family and their community and their countries so this is really something that we have to take into consideration and the solutions really have to be long term. Arent we here talking about failure of governance because its their argument goal which is to provide security. For its own citizens and protests schools if you look at the investments in education our system over the years by many of the African Leaders this will confirm exactly the report the lower level investments in education has created some of these challenges were seeing today and it begs to question the whole idea about the africa continent that free trade zone we are we are looking at the the youths and the leaders of tomorrow and the production engine for that for to make that africa continent that 3 trips on excel but if you look at the quality of education compound that now by the issues of peace and security which is not allowed to keep going to school at the moment we have over. 300 are something to keep that out of school and making the teacher asked redundant most of them are not going to school because they cannot teach and then he keeps are also out of school so it gives you a whole idea about everything around what we have to do to our compound then it ran off the issues of governance defeat and leadership challenges that we have on the continent to some a does this is were talking here about raising awareness you live in a state that was suddenly the headlines all over the world in 2014 with the chip book schoolgirls kidnapping since thats kidnapping have you seen a change in the mentality of the people the way the government is reacting to address this particular problem. In your own area. In 2000 photos of 30 insurgents i dont know about the kidnapping of each book yes then there was an in my squad in my school just look at it i did not is time cannot state that extreme and cannot escape and i missed several attacks in that area does call khalidi Global Markets great country to community and ive been to attempt to school before you need to have had an intervention in the school and it seemed teach us a world. That culturally diverse. And u. P. S. Is that to Psychosocial Support to teach us does the best at least it is best to does it where using money to an hour to get a new study butte and not a thought brought us that is to teach us the most of our teachers found it that if we how did very hard that is to share in our say what that in meant to in our socially relationship or to put on a t. V. Show so we teach what weve done in television what it would to money and our school and it shouldnt and we have Development Plan we know how to stitch on the security personnel around the school we have their contact. I know so we also see. We have also to step down to fit into the community we involve the Community Members that in the Larger Community and we have their contact that everything anything didnt the partying or i would advise to dinner how to walk in that in peers to school not in learning that. Remember that in 2 years it doesnt look them but to turn around and say one thing they have been attempting in my school that you just could not be attempted i would have city thought one blast about for just about 200 meters away from what we do if you short of this training by unicef which it would to come down our students and not least look them down under school very different get out and its ive been very helpful and very good experience im definitely going to expose those give me an opportunity to at least a quite a bit in the education in be a member of it you know my ideas are working group. According to a lot more and i must say really brave of the of the children and the thumb it is to insist a taken that has a School Despite what you have been describing passy resilience is one thing but then the spread of those attacks by groups affiliated with al qaida. These line extensions in Subsaharan Africa in different parts of the west and Central Africa is is another thing. Took us through the alternatives that youve put into place to try to put an end to this phenomena. So basically in the schools that we actually are still functional and as our teacher colleague in my degree was saying we offer a package of support to school so that they to make them safer for children to be in and for teachers to actually perform their duties. But in situations where we dont have a school or to at all for instance i was in mali this week and visited a displacement camp in mopti in central mali which has seen a rise in attacks actually in recent in recent months what we have is we can offer at least Safe Learning spaces a turn it of learning spaces in these camps so that the kids at least can access some form of basic education and are given some basic Education Skills numeracy literacy that kind of thing while in displacement in other parts like in Northern Iraq in a fossil which is also very much a country an area of concern for us because of the rise in security there we offer together with our local partners we offer radio school basically we developed broadcasts that are there are broadcast in local languages 5 times a week in 3 different languages in northern brooklyn a fossil where kids who arent able to even leave their homes let alone go to school at least can be at home and listen to a radio we offer these radio sets and they can listen and learn something and we are also reaching for the 1st time kids through have never been to school before through these solutions as well so again this is about you know taking into consideration that long term effect we have such a huge problem with out of School Children and many of these countries regardless of conflict but now the conflict is obviously making things worse but to call in a co would that those alternative blood forms like the broadcast like the would be would be enough given the fact that were talking about a huge number of people forced out of those schools do do you think there will be enough we. Sources to try to cope with the new alternatives well for protein about most of this region challenged by technology so even getting such technology to the homes the. Very challenging the 2nd thing is that we also need to look at the track collage equal distribution of the key to live with at home on school on the serious threat. If you look let me just give you a little bit of specific i think that part of it is also reflected in the unicef report to congress 120000 i. D. P. s in booking our fossil and over a 1900 schools including 500 in this i have been shot down leaving about 9000 to just read on the so how does this now contribute to increase in the level of teeth on security challenges that we have on the region is what we are now faced with as the last issue on so whether there are alternative means to educating these kids yet there are available at samples of what they could dig from a bed agree to the the unicef colleague already mentioned but we also need to understand that keep that this h y s m t a relationship to be able to learn better in an atmosphere that they feel is not just on the scene for for lennon but also for. The patient of whatever he thought. My degree have a patsy from unicef listening to america from west Africa Network for peace what watching you you have our viewers all over the world watching you give us a sense about the immediate needs the stuff that you need know for you to be able to convince parents kids to come back to school and provide them with alternative to tools so that they will continue to learn the advice for what of study despite the challenges and your population that i have known school my school and my Community Just like a Host Community and actually thought effort and if i mean you can be what youve been about properly if it not for now but my advice to parents and largely for the Larger Community is that the children you cheatin of the poor whom ducted people fear to train actually it will not make your dates are that you discover its peace you children of the poor who do fear to train were not make the order to make that shouldnt have peace that its better that we all come together to walk in and id live to support at least some of the schools in any way or the order or no doc to be to find no socially or darr these things i choose to make forward thats who were talking about children who have been traumatized by conflicts and by war people who come from poor backgrounds some of them were displaced so ultimately were talking about need for massive psychological support to help them recover from the trauma and learn isnt this an exceptional moment that would it acquires not on in nasa Financial Resources but also a comprehensive plan where the International Community should be on board. 100 percent we turn to to local governments to make sure that they perform their duty in ensuring that schools are safe havens for their children we turn to our humanitarian partners to work with us in order to make sure that this is becomes a reality on the ground but we importantly turn to the International Community to our Donor Community and make sure that they step up 70 percent more than 70 percent of our humanitarian education emergency programs are actually underfunded so we need everyone to come on board and make sure that every child has access to education at every child even if theyre in booking a fossil even if theyre in cameroon they have a right to education thats the call that we make today. What baffles me personally is that you have the African Union with this 2030 agenda for Sustainable Development that says that we need to transform the continent into a better place to live and thrive and the facing problems like this and we dont seem to be on top of their own agenda. Well i think African Union is doing its best but i think its also if period that we need to start a conversation between at the level of what a lot right relations saw the kind of arms and ammunitions that is used in africa to exit use violent extremism we need to ask questions about the origin and destination the level of corruption in in africa especially among some of the lead us and then be the cost to receive between the african elites and africa political elites and did this initial we had a stolen one caused because some of these stolen money are supposed to be used to develop the education aspect and then of course the the kind of illicit forms that that goes away from africa illicit arms and ammunition that comes into africa i think this conversation need to take a different level while we continue to besiege africa lead us to do what this should do i think its also important that this kind of mortal a problem by law crowded nations and accountability needs to begin to take place i see a point my dog oh whats the situation like now where you live is it getting worse or is it improving our families willing to take the risk and send their kids to school or they are more reluctant than ever to send them back to school. It calling my community is really walking and roll mythos increased tremendously at least we have enough we see need more classes at least some of the classes are not even enough for at least talk of pi the land off limits are increased that we know education i see right we do not neglect we do not at least we we that if we know we did wed help of the community and outro are good to see a room a tax increase Everyone Wants to be in a school the school has now busy beyond as in you just like a child friendly space all children want to be in school and dont let us increase we need support that small class isnt all that its asking proof seriously. But c c c now we have some good news coming from my degree by the same time the concern is about the infrastructure the number of more kids not finding the right place. There would shelter them against the backdrop of this how concerned are you about the future of west and Central Africa what kind of impact we have on those countries if the number of students dropping out of school and schools closing because of instability and violence increases in the future well thats a huge concern for us of course because as we know when children are up after school theyre much more likely to become victim to traffickers they are much more likely to end up in Child Marriage for girls much more likely to basically have their futures ruined by their lack of access to knowledge and education so this is really something of concern we also know that the number of children is increasing in that part of the world across africa saw so this is education placing education at the center of the conversation is really important and we often look at me in this part of the world through to strategic lens or security lens and wed like for once to peel that away and to bring children back to the forefront because thoughts those communities and the civilian communities are the ones paying the highest price less than a minute please if you can is an issue that has been debated in africa white since independence and the failure has been phenomenal in many parts across the continent whats the biggest problem here are we talking about lack of political will from the political elite or is it a purely economic thing the budget for education is not enough and therefore what we see there is a normal result. I think that idea because nazis dont you so hes a major problem most of the educational systems that any fed from the. Go by put up by but i also think that. Yes government which is director of the luck of. The Independent School elites to invest in education ought to see the nexus between quality education and the future of africa at sea in a culture where mecca is a my dog oh my god she already appreciate your time and your contribution to the program and lets all hope that tomorrow would be a better day for children across they often continent and thank you for watching you can see the program again and its time by visiting our website www dot com for further discussion go to our Facebook Page thats facebook dot com for was last a j inside story it also join the conversation on twitter ill hand it is at a.

I. Was 9 was. Was. Was. I. The voice to David Bengurion declaring the establishment of the state of israel in maine 1948. The Balfour Declaration was a letter sent by British Foreign secretary Arthur Balfour to a member of the british house of lords child on the 2nd of november 1917. This letter sent to a leading figure in the British Jewish Community 100 years ago had repercussions which even its authors cannot have imagined. Whatever its real intentions it went on to have a profound impact on the middle east and its people. And its effects still resonates across the region today. In 1914 these soldiers were fighting on the battlefields of europe in the 1st world war the allies britain france and russia fought the central powers of germany austriahungary and the Ottoman Empire for 4 years but the land and sea war was not the only battleground. Muscle was also being flexed behind closed doors as allies conspired how to redraw maps to their own advantage when the conflict eventually ceased. Sir mark sykes for the british and french. For the french plotted how to divide the arab lands of the Ottoman Empire assuming it would finally fall. The psychs pekoe agreement plan secretly to divide it into french and british spheres of influence france taking most of the levant southern anatolia and the mosul area while the british extended their control over the southern levant expanding eastwards to baghdad and basra and all the nand between the arabian gulf and the french territory. Historic palestine then still part of the Ottoman Empire was a bone of contention and would be put under international administration. But. That falls. In. Their. Eyes. Just dress. The men. Or do. That. For you. Which of the oblong. Of your of how the half of art can be or where you. Live youre going to. Russia i think the british felt that there had not been enough government involvement in concluding the states because agreement with the french and the process they had not really protected their interests well enough for a post world war era in which the British Empire would continue to seek to be a dominant force in European Affairs and so really officials across whitehall including mark sykes and self felt it was a bad deal. Have ilja go. At it in the future america have accent you need on the free market does that mean you hold your own. Office the one your home your new shoot fearful of the walking people of well an article in the have been many who are living. And i many and i mean i look at that before and its a huge significance that when theyre making these discussions jews and scientists are not discussed jews were not to feature in the new coffee at the middle east which was to be based on the idea of the arab nation. Zionism was the movement supporting the reestablishment of a jewish homeland in the area defined as the historic land of israel. The movement was active in early 20th century london especially because of the persecution of jews in russia and eastern europe. Theodore hertz all had found a design a movement in the late 1900 century but jewish people in western europe had not rushed to support it because they were integrating quite successfully into society zionists believed that all jews should someday returned to. That country one of the problems was that palestine belong to the Ottoman Empire and the Ottoman Empire was not clear that it wanted massive jewish immigration into palestine and the British Government offered to let jews move unimpeded in great numbers into uganda if they wished. But in any event it really didnt happen and it didnt happen because a majority of zionists felt that hurtful was selling them out and that the only place for jews to move back to were at least conscious zionist jews to move back to was palestine in this i think britain began to look on the Zionist Movement as a possible partner in justifying a rita goshi asians of their agreement with the french you see for britain simply to claim territory against what theyd already concluded in the green that with france could create diplomatic problems for the british but if they were to make a claim to palestine not out of self interest but in order to advance a great historic ideal of the restoration of the jewish people to the legal homeland that this could justify an adjustment of the term of the site speak
