Heart, accumulated india, it cost a shroud of athens, turning the skies an orange hue, reducing visibility and prompting. Well socrates to sound the alarm. We have to be careful to not a breeze. So thats right, and we have to stay home. Basically, there are a guidance is from the doctors that should be followed in such cases because we observe presentations about the 10 times with 20 times higher. The mean then the average for the region. Many took the advice to stay indoors, it was time to come to these 40 a. I felt a discomfort. I tried to deal with it by staying in the house so that it didnt affect my health for the others mobile at the spectacle. 8 on the all of everything was orange. It really felt like we were in the so hara of this cloudy orange tinted haze is a frequent phenomenon did usually happens in spring and autumn. Low mutual Logical Systems and strong winds transferred dusk loads from the hard. Does it sending the skies, bringing with it the risk of coming wildfire as seasonal. So this time of the year, but a devastating has it in a country that experience has major blazes every year. But there was one positive outcome of this dusty display. The clouds backed as a new tree into the oceans, feeding tonton and fueling the growth of lorene micro organisms forming the basis of an intricate, essential food web. Sonya jago, which is era who us or from the, tell him a cry for the moments. The news does continue here on out because they are off to the listening posts, which is the indonesia is building a new capital city. Deep in the jungles of borneo, this is for the original open across the nation. But not everyone supports the idea any i get that someone would definitely have. We see this as an authoritarian decision whos on the 101 east where deals indonesia moving a mega city on out to 0. It wasnt a ronnie and military attack that was made for tv. So was the, is there any response . But what will all this lead to, apart from taking the fives of the world off of goss terminology matters, the New York Times knows. And the language is using on gaza is a story onto itself. Plus believers in can lead to their graves by a television where, where the regular, the, its been a week now since more than 300. 00 iranian missiles and drones were launched israels way. But despite the initial alarm, the rush to the bomb shelters, the doomsday scenarios. And all the original war this failed to materialize. Instead, israel conducted a limited counter attack on friday, on military targets in is for hon, which was similar to a runs strategic approach. The vast majority of those are ronnie and projectiles were shot down by israel or its allies. As the damage was minimal, 0 is ready, fatalities, and outcome that military experts concluded was by design. Israels response also have more to do with spectacle than substance because the nothing yahoo government had the optics to consider dont act and risk losing face or retaliate when its primary back or the us had called for a strength at least publicly. Whatever happens next or runs attack, and the way it has been characterized in the western media may have gone or is real, some more support abroad. Which could prove crucial in this battle of perceptions as is where the forces continue to slaughter palestinians in any kind of a battle between your own and as well as not only a battle between 2 armed militaries or 2 sets of government officials issuing competing or conflicting statements, its also the bottle of nerves, the bottle for information superiority for International Support and sympathy. When our news feeds on that night with images of military fireworks in the skies over if there was reason to fear the worst. Depending on whos in front of the story, rons airborne, a saw, was either a reckless act of aggression that risk triggering a wider war, firing a 100 percent ballistic. Nissan is a dangerous escalation for a deliberate act of restraint. But it only might have to know how does it prove to be a highly performative exercise onto the wrong spot that resulted in no, is rarely fatalities have more to do with messaging than anything else and have to leave warmongers disappointed or what do you want in perspective, it was a chance to put on a spectacle to really get the headlines and show that they engaging unprecedented direct action against you as well. But it was mainly a message because we didnt have the mass casualty on israels park. It was an opportunity to put out the message that he was able to defend itself. 99 percent of missiles were shot down so from both sides that could claim victory. Not only they, ronnie and strike was well telegraphed in advance. It was clearly coordinated in a fashion that israel and its allies could defend effectively. So the point was not destruction. The point was a political message that they ron ends were sending to try to re establish concerns against this or israels response to a rons attack. Took 6 days to get to was limit, largely symbolic targeting and air base near is not the city itself, nor the Nuclear Plants nearby that failed to satisfy his really hard lines like security minister due to him, our band who fried, id called in wait while the as rios cheerleaders, like the british prime minister, offered their approval. And we have condemned your wrongs reckless and dangerous biologists. Missiles against its right on saturday and is wrong. So itd be, has the wrong to self defense, which was consistent with what had come out of the white house and the many western governments in the aftermath of a runs initial attack, that the as law mac republic was the address. Busy so lets be straight. Given the scale of this attack, rons intent was clearly to cause significant disruption and casualties. The us called the rons actions unprecedented. Even though they had been preceded by israels bombing of an iranian consumer building in the syrian capital damascus on april. First, the killed to iranian generals, among others, it was a position the u. K. Also to that wench, lynched, proved to be a hard sell black and white, but what britain to the hostile nation, something and one of our comes to us we would take, we would take the survey stroll actually and around would say that thats what that is. But even those well aware iran has influence beyond its borders and uses its embassies and consulates cover. When arming its regional hours have said the is really strike in damascus was dangerous. We prevent here, i must be very, very critically about this, right . It was one of those adventures that these are in these committing only because it is possible. There was hardly pay debate about the consequences of the prize about the day after. I mean it explained it. We said damaging the military capability of a rod officer by law whole im us, im not new port leim beholden mccomb before the over to that even though i think thats what should always been should on what is this rubbish by the end of the day its about showing cool the is very much are the, is really james ball and the parents. Wed never be a chief through us as a nations and they capabilities are not damaged by those us as a nation. So we are left only with the need to show to ron is often portrayed in western media as a malign actor. There is a very rarely a recognition that, like most other states, iran has legitimate security concerns and at times has responded with restraint. Over the past few months, israel had killed multiple Senior IranianMinistry Officials in syria. Israel has conducted corporate operations against Iranian Nuclear facilities against iranian infrastructure, kills iranian sciences, iranian commanders on iranian sword. So this is not a one sided fights, and you rarely see the western media trying to strike a balance in distribution or allocating a blame for the current situation. So what was really behind the rons theatricals, but ultimately the limiting factor via ronnie and military could have launched more of its drones and miss files through one of its proxy such as has bala in 11 all right, next door to is instead did not only send almost all of them from iran, the broadcast that some of those launches, given me is released and theyre american and british allies, 3 hours to prepare for them and ultimately take most of the missiles down. But the lights in that and yahoo government, in israel, the leaders of the Islamic Republic had been playing to a domestic audience, the drones and miss silas, most of which the iranians knew would never land. Where the vehicles for the iran at the moment is in a quite fragile state. Internally, there has been for the last 2 or 3 years, quite a lot of protest against the, for a terry and actions of the same as the regime. And iran is very aware of the ways in which its getting a broiled and then other war with actually in danger its on stability. So there is a very major calculation about its own, a longer abilities in the ways in which iran has respond that there are 2 narratives that going on a new one, right. The one is that this was a historic strike. And parts of the on human population appeared receptive to, particularly in the aftermath of the serial bombing. At the same time, most of you, all new ones, are not in favor of war. There focuses on their daily lives, economic conditions. And theres been a renewed crack down on the islamic, had scar from you on the mandatory nature of it. And thats because very much undermine any funding around the flag effect from a new conflict with his or 3 days after ron launched, its quasi attack on the history of this story of performative warfare and shadow diplomacy descended into the observed when reports surfaced that the us had contacted the, as long as the republican, asking it to allow israel to conduct a symbolic count, to return to quote unquote, save face. 72 hours later, israel kit the base near discipline israels interceptors protected yours from the secret is equally absurd. Was this youtube i posted online by the next in yahoo government trumpeting re intersection of a rons missiles and declaring that is real, which has spent 6 months old with her reading gossip. And some Muslim Population acted to protect some of these loans, fully assigns. It is so ridiculous. I mean, really probably gotten that can go as far as it wishes, but is relative not to take the holy places and he run visit the target they holy place. This is what it is violating severely for decades. The freedom of full force cheap, the most of thems mainly palestinians to get there when its needed time its about the. Busy may take a one, a little sympathy backs to is res, north 20th and you know so much money is right and the permanent visit is what hes going to lose. Or the simple see, is there any way to go for, for an estate k, as it seems now, as it eventually did, 6 days later, a greater value to is reopen any sympathy or runs attacks may have produced, is the distraction. It creates away from the horrific stories and still coming out of cost of so many more palestinian bodies getting on air, including from the hospital. Now shift corpses found with high b, 2 still attached images of 7 School Children slaughtered on a playground. Well cross that would have got far more coverage than they did. If news outlets were not trans fixed by this new were on it. But telegenic story, the for all of the fireworks, is not what it appeared to be. For the past 6 months, the New York Times as coverage of israels post october 7th, the salt on garza has taken a pummeling from critics both inside and outside the paper. Mean actually, robbie is here with the latest example of to report this post beat by the investigative new side, the intercept levine, the memo that editors at the times sent the stuff back in november and which has been regularly updated since the memo is effectively a style guide for the coverage of israels post october 7th assault on gaza. Theres nothing unusual about such style guides. Its Standard Practice across news organizations. What makes this memo controversial is some of the domain ology. It was the papers journalist against using tons of photos should the guidance says avoid using the phrase ok by tennessee when describing palestinian land, which is where as ministry is according to international, no occupying as one time source interviewed by being deceptive or good. That amounts to quote, taking the occupation out of the coverage when it is in fact, the actual quote of the conflict. The memo also instruct stuff to steal, cleared of the, to them. But if you jacobs for pots of gaza that are home to palestinians displaced during previous wars. These are people who are refugees. These terms occupied territories and rescue jacobs artificial language used by the United Nations and international and deals. Its unusually for news organizations to restrict the use of this terminology in this response to being does that support a times books . But some said that issue in guidance like this is to ensure accuracy consistency. A nuance in how we call the news back in february, another intercept investigation into a widely discredited time support about the quote webinar ization of leave by home, us on october 7th, to be considerably to send in the times as newsroom over the papers guys have coverage clearly that discontent is stay brewing and still leaking out to the intercept. Thanks man. Of last year we aired a disturbing story out of 10 year about the dangers of religious broadcasting tele vangelis. And how difficult that content can be to regulate. We are re broadcasting it now because the tele vangelis at the heart of the story. Busy mackenzie has been formally charged with the murder of 191. 00 people, mackenzie allegedly led those victims his followers to their dest. By telling them the world was coming to an end. Among the questions being asked in the aftermath, should the authorities can use media or regulators have done more to stop mackenzies doomsday preachings from being broadcast. And if so, how would that square with the right constitutionally protected in can you do freedom of speech and religion . Those are questions that require urgent answer is because tell evangelism is on the rise in kenya, where 85 percent of the population is christian. But lets me post nick me. Were head now from the canyon post on the tragedy that has come to be known as the shack. A hold of a mass of with just less millions, a coastal town in east, and can you and are heading inland to the shuck, ahold of 1st. In much news broke that a woman had killed her children here in order to please god when the story book joseph jerry was one of the 1st journalists of c. We will 1st quote here by the police, were informed that the 2 bodies, 2 bodies of children about it and decided to instead to the phone bodies all over, must lives all over today to more than 350 bodies and counting have been exempt. That will lead to the 1st by 10 evangelists name pul mckinsey, useful to have told them that the bill was in, and thats in order to reach card. They would have to starve themselves to fish children, then women, then men. Mackenzie said he would follow it. But he never did. So tell me about for mackenzie, what do we know about him initially . Was the taxi dividing money, andy . And did he from these own minister . No called Good News International ministries that touch, according to the advisor who 1st went in, was just a good charged middle course happen until 2015. The. Now when it became attentive engine is to have a pass, the message started changing. He started introducing they showed the new with the prophecies and all these prophecies robert tested live on television. Now not that one, michael pulled up on my danish, tell me about mackenzies follows those that followed him into this 1st. It came from fun. Why . Because again, they had to follow as oliver. So presumably many of those people would never have heard of poor mackenzie written, not for his tv channel. Correct . Theres still an estimated 600. 00 of poor mackenzies for those who are still missing and check on the 1st. One of them is a woman named pamela nicholas. Single. Shes from bung, gomez, its accounting northwest. Can you the opposite end of the country in india . 1000 kilometers. From yeah, weve managed to find his son, hes living in that ruby, so im off to the capital to meet him. In evangelism is the use of media to communicate christianity. The 10 evangelists in kenya often claimed that they can perform miracles by was deliver spiritual, communing and guaranteed prosperity. Typically, in exchange for the nations, which it made some till event was very well and influential. For some viewers, often the most valuable. So the promise being directly into the homes of divine intervention, 5 is cost is previously resistible for mackenzie is what we would refer to as a carrier. Is magic the sovereignty to the no, no, no problem is the good problem when i, pennsylvania. Because in order to be a tv event, this order to hold the attention of a audience no matter how big or small you have to have a particular kind of criticism. Comparing to other african, tell evangelists, you can tell that the rest of the frequently bundle is tend to go with the prosperity way and pull them. Mckenzie goes the mystical way. Why not . So now when mystery kicks in, then you know somebody is believed to have inflammation or news or power that other people dont top. And so thats the whole county of mystical element is what really endeared him to a lot of people coming in to kind of sing his son, which is she boost. It says that she would spend her days watching mackenzies times t v channel, and was captivated by the simmons that promised spiritual meaning. She thought he could help her daughter who was suffering from Mental Health issues this time last year. She bruce is mother his sister, and her 3 year old daughter left time to join the 10 evangelist, or mostly to do the final might be the main reason my mother followed mackenzies preaching was my older sisters illness. And during his tv sermons, mackenzie would often use the bible and a specific oil to heal people. So my mother thought he might be able to help my sister. So that was her main motivation. If it wasnt for his tv station, my mother never would have heard of someone like mckenzie, by the side of my mind when were done to mackenzie. When religion comes under the agency of media, then media transforms, thats religion. And so perhaps for people like couple of mckenzie media tended to give them some kind of reputation and trade. Credit ability to for like cause the 1000000 delay a little tongue who didnt know what to pull. Mccain sees message. Well, the 1st started out as what we would consider an instance of really just diversity, right, because it doesnt just start off as an end of time. We then see it moving into a space of tv. Is it new kitchen is evil . And then later on we see it moving into a space of danger. Shit, kindly. Im it. Oh yeah. Ok. As the site the hollinger. Yeah. Now its difficult to predict what the vacation will be, because not all diverse innovations of a main steam village and will become deviant and not old deviant innovations of a mainstream. Religion will become deigned to this, but sometimes they do. The question now is, at what point should the kenyan authorities have intervene and could they have done so well, upholding mackenzies constitutional right to freedom of thoughts and religion. The Communications Authority is the party responsible for regulating full costs media in the country. This past april, its suspended mackenzies tv channel, but only off to the check. A whole other story had broke. And even then it was mostly for administrative non compliance, little of the content it with you broke the rules. I asked the director general how his organization monitors this kind of content. We use a system that handles the information. But when you have 322 visitations for you to make sense of that content knowledge we have, we, the, somebody has to sit down and listen to or watch to be able to conclude the natural that particular content. Thats why the complain mechanism is much better if somebody to see something unbecoming been able to report. Then we can now go specifically to track down that specific book custom problem. I see with that mechanism is that you are relying on view of feedback, but often the view as of these channels are the people that are being radicalized and you not see that as an issue in the system. Its really a problem, but then i would responsibility is enough to regulate content, or if youre lucky to electrical nature, alexis or, or get them to facilitate content that we looked at. We did not see a direct link with them. I do not think that yes, they may not be a direct link to check a whole lot, but that that problem method content needs and miracles and the prosperity preaching. Yes. Do not think that needs to be regulated. You know, the trouble with the issues of religion and faith is exactly that faith. And thats why when you allow freedom of religion is to just allow people to make sense of life and the way they see best. So the risk of going ahead for to that to end up being a policeman that we peoples crunches. But that balance has to be struck, wasnt really big southern for us pull mackenzie is now in jail and faces multiple charges. But the media environment in which he thrived and the Constitutional Rights that protected him remains the same. Kenya is 85 percent christian, and 10 evangelists wheeled enormous influence. The politicians wanting to stay in power, unlikely to challenge the hedge, and many of these to the positives and the armies of faithful followers. Even if that leaves an untold number of valuable people at risk. So him was, i talked to him to go to copper, itll be the pin number lead. I left nairobi from a wendy to search for my mother. When i got there, i found one of mackenzies followers who had been rescued and they told me they had seen my mother and my sister. My sister and a child had been tied up until they died and were buried. Having seen all this, my mother ran deep into the forest. Ive been trying to find her ever since. But to this day, nothing the and finally of this past week, the worlds most elaborate election process got underway. Indians and there are more than 950000000 eligible voters with the casting ballots over the next 6 weeks. Prime minister, no rend remote, he and his party, the b j.

Let alone voting for will be keeping our eyes on this story and the central role that the indian media are playing in it. And well see you next time here at the listening post.
