S. Soldier article has more from washington d. Its a somber day in the United States the 18th anniversary of the september 11th attacks and the president did what president s do on this day as he gave a speech of this time at the pentagon memorial and he talked about the war in afghanistan now in the past the president has raised it seemed to raise the possibility that he could use Nuclear Weapons to end the conflict saying that he could end the war in just days but he didnt want to kill 10000000 people he didnt specifically say that would be with a Nuclear Weapon but it doesnt seem possible that it could happen any other way and again at the pentagon memorial he talked about the peace talks breaking down with the taliban and whats next we had peace talks scheduled a few days ago i called them off when i learned that they had killed a Great American soldier from puerto rico and 11 other innocent people they thought they would use this attack to show strength but actually what they showed is unrelenting we. The last 4 days we have hit our enemy harder than they have ever been hit before and that will continue now its not at all clear that the pentagon and the military has really stepped up the fight with the taliban they havent provided any statistics that anything is in fact changed in afghanistan and the president is in a predicament because he promised his base that he would end the war in afghanistan if he wants to actually increase the fight change the momentum hes going to have to send more troops in afghanistan and thats something he doesnt want to do so the president saying that if the tax had been stepped up not at all clear that they have been and not at all clear what comes next the top u.

The u. S. Is planning to ban flavored a cigarette products Public Health officials are investigating more than 450. 00 cases of severe long illnesses that have confirmed at least 5 deaths related to each cigarettes there are fears that the companies that produce the nicotine fail devices are targeting teenagers with thousands of different flavors we cant allow people to get sick and we cant have our youth be so affected and im here again and thats how the 1st lady got a shes got a son together that is a. Beautiful young man and she feels very very strongly about it shes see that were both reading it a lot of people are reading it but people are dying with so were looking at it very closely a court in the hague has acquitted a dutch doctor of all charges after she euthanized a patient with dementia the doctor gave a fatal dose of drugs to the 74 year old 3 years ago she said she was following the patients will and had consulted the womans family and other doctors as she was accused of failing to confirm consent at the nation it is legal under dutch law if the patients suffering severely and wants to die is the founder of exit international a group that advocates for the right to die explains why this case sets a precedent. The problem comes up as is ever the spread in this case that when you lose the ability to give a clear decision well pull your earlier statement by when you do have the mental capacity that is an advanced directive written clearly made well understood by your family and doctors that you do want this you do want this so provided should you move into a situation where you lack that clarity what you do that now i think the dutch law which acknowledges and acts upon allows the doctor to act upon such an early age briskly which is the a way to go the search for alien life to scott like a lactic boosts scientists from University College london have protected water vapor and the atmosphere of another world thats more than twice the size of earth its the 1st time a planet orbiting a star outside our system or exoplanet has been found with both water and temperatures that could support life at an stansell reports 110 light years away from our planet there is a super earth of world where life could exist outside of our solar system. 18 b. Was discovered in 2015 astronomers use data gathered from the Hubble Telescope to analyze light filtered through the planets atmosphere they found water vapor in helium the exit planet also orbits at suns habitable zone meaning that temperatures are stable and favorable to host life forms this planet is potentially hobby double so were talking about a planet that. On paper based on calculations is able to post liquid water right now we all can only culture late temperatures for a peace plan thats ok 2000 bees the only one that we go one step further we know that there is whether or not the spirit but to go to to hubby the blue planet started with required many many advances and many more observe ations. Researchers at University College london believe that other molecules found on earth like nitrogen and me saying are also present in the out misfire the exoplanet may have the conditions to support life but its not another version of the earth its twice as big as a smaller sun and thus far more dense and scientists currently dont have the technology to physically reach the planets or analyze its surface to determine if life actually exists there. 18 b. Is one of thousands of exoplanets but being trillions of kilometers away its unlikely humans will ever be able to reach them even though this is very exciting discovery we should wind back a little bit because its just it indications that something that we know is far to go for life as we understand it. Is present its out of this world but its whether that indicates that there is life there is another question entirely we know the more we learn about the cosmos the more we realize that perhaps the earth has this singular combination of characteristics that would be very clearly there should be other worlds out there like earth but at the moments we have discovered the new more powerful telescopes are expected to be launched over the next few years theyll be able to provide deeper and more accurate analysis of 18 b.

To deal with the number and we deal with it some illegal pointers you deal with it so main gate agent can really. Deal with it so it is in the countries that who i know im making a statement making right now and im very happy day actually has a. Against all the things that they can people that we need to know as a country to visit but we need to take on this issue what is the core. And i do indeed that it is something that we can to do or no one can but as a. Government we need to take responsibility with instances with us i think our community would be very happy to hear you say that especially because there are members 9 of that community who dont believe this is in a phobia so i want to share with you a few tweets from people this is for chris says its not its just criminal acts using xenophobia as an excuse another person says acts of criminality 8 zina phobia i dont pick that a few more times and it brought him here sums asop saying how can we stop as in a phobic attacks when the leaders of south africa dont agree in the 1st place that it is zina phobia and some people are hearing mixed messages there say ill give this one team you what is your take on what people seem to be saying. Well i mean good is good is it a few big otherwise we wouldnt have. To do it of migrants we have been the main victims of gun been looting and rioting that have been perpetrated in the past few. I want to bring in check ahead chicken i was reading your twitter feed week and i read this my 1st experience is in a phobia in south africa and then you tell a story that got so many likes and people really empathize with your story and your conclusion from the real story is quite damning for South Africans tell us the story festival. Well basically i had gone to south africa on october 26th team to attend to journalism events one was a c. N. N. African journalist award and one was a conference to engage civic data journalist and at the International Airport in cape town i was approached by a very hostile man who claimed to have been an official at the airport he was not wearing a uniform therefore i was very wary of him and he approached me right after i had gone through immigration and just right off the bat his entire demeanor was belligerent it was hostile it was suspicion and it was just barry alarming there me off guard and he was just demanding to know what are you doing here what are you doing here what are you doing here and i told him several times that im here as a journalist to attend a media event and he was very skeptical and had a lot of doubt on his face and it was just very uncomfortable i had people in the airport watching me he wouldnt let me move any time i tried to go to baggage claim or go to the restroom he would physically stand in front of my my person just blocking my movement so it went on about 45 minutes until another airport official finally came to rescue me. That weve all had bad experiences at the f one how do you know just wasnt grumpy why you say you know phobic right right well i kept saying that i was a journalist and he wants my passport i showed him my passport which was and i cheer him passport and thats when i saw a lot of just. He just didnt like the fact that i was traveling with a nigerian passport i saw it on his face was like oh youre nigerian and just from there that the questions that he was answer he got he was asking me again why you here and i think me traveling as a female by myself with a nigerian passport he didnt like it and this was also expressed by the airport official who did actually come to rescue me see this was a bad experience for you a point space a Point Spencer south africa but why would you then go on to say. South africans is enough i think from that experience because ive heard so many other similar experiences femi i mean this is a reoccurring issue but you know this is not new this is not happening out of the blue or out of this out of a sudden and ive spoken to so many other african nationals and they express similar experiences at the airports where if you for example your physical features dont appear to be South African youre people comment come come after you also a taxi driver told me but if i were nigerian he would have whopped me he didnt know i was nigerian because i dont speak with a nigerian accent so you hear statements like this and you hear this over and over again and of course you just come to understand that there is not we dont always feel welcomed as african nationals we dont always feel welcome coming into south africa a very outspoken politician to this malema had something to say about these recent attacks and he framed them somewhat differently have a listen i said other time but in all the buses lets put all these nigerians and zimbabweans in buses lets take them back and lets see if you get it implemented. It to me is the most stupid thing to think of you. Just defying cry and you give it nice knaves all just enough will be a phobia its kind it must be dead with this such see they were decent and i said that resonated lots of people lots of people around the continent of the world as well is that your take on hals South Africans of behaving like now. I think the. Government coming in. Yeah but i think you know that you have to deny that it is migrant who are sitting with tiger that in hands you know youre trying to collect tries it anyhow but as you know for pick things up by denying that you know make the program disappear and i think the question that i think is quite accurate in a point you know in the argument of my lemon is precisely what you are making that the has to something a phobia is you know located in the deepening crisis in the economy where weve been losing millions of jobs particularly since the economic crisis of 2 dozen in 2009 over to me too in jobs were lost in the crisis decision hasnt gotten better if anything it has gotten worse today unemployment is sitting at over 10000000 that is about. You know. About 40 percent i think according to some estimations and i mean there are levels of poverty over 50 percent approximately 50 percent of the population in this country i live in poverty and im one of the black african that is you know much more west at and at the region of about 64. 00 or more percent now it is this deepening levels of poverty that is a hoot cause of this crisis by putting measure in such an indication because of the we can close and the poor is deepening and there is no solution on the basis of the existing micro economy policies of this government none of the politicians. You know of been raising their concerns over this have offered any viable solution and we think it is only a break with the new debate out there to quote he says of this kept Us Government that we can begin to make in roots in the fundamental problems of unemployment of housing of love of us. Collapsing Public Services and all of these programs that are these countries. Where clinton and of course. See them by the mentioned poverty levels and unemployment because im seeing that online as well so this is julie is on twitter who says a party it created inequality south African Leaders failed to address inequality in post apartheid south africa and instead some told people that the problem is having foreigners in the country the result is in a phobia i want to go on to this point picking up on that this is a director at Human Rights Watch who says its absolutely frightening and its rear its ugly head again in johannesburg i spoke about it on the radio and a very hostile caller threatened me scary and very little action from the police now this is the one who sent us a big comment elaborating on his thoughts on what its been like have a listen the police job is of africa this is something that can be brought under control the. Property is primarily african foreign nationals can be stalked if the policing sort of cricket was so political it doesnt sort of. Ridiculous in science that a phobia with no accountability. For the leaders of the good to acknowledge that what is. Just criminality each is in the phobic and they must then implement the existing National Action plan to come back to the phobia in other forms of intolerances then they way i could listen to you i see you writing notes they are thinking of things to respond to it and of course a lot of people have this question so youre the best person to talk about it with but he says it Politicians Police arent doing enough and in fact theyre
