Duck. Welcome to glad you could join us. Demanding accountability after australian troops allegedly killed at least 39. 00 afghans in cold blood during deployments in afghanistan. Before your investigation by the Australian Defense forces found that the troops of elite army units were involved in dozens of unlawful killings which could amount to wall crimes. Australian troops have been in afghanistan for nearly 20 yeahs. A majority of the alleged mud were committed in 20122013. The alleged actions of Australian Forces in afghanistan are being described as one of the darkest chapters in the countrys military history. The defense minister Linda Reynolds made no secret of her revulsion. I got the report 2 weeks ago and it made me physically ill. And it was very, very distressing. Raids, because i know she said the consequences should be far reaching and doesnt represent. Its not just about the individuals who committed these allege and crimes, but its also lessons for throughout the child of command, within the i. D. F. , within defense. And there are also lessons, i think, for governments as well. So we have to accept it for what it is. This is not fog of all these allegations of absolute, clear cut and war crimes that the troops are alleged to have unlawfully killed prisoners, farmers, and other civilians. Not in the heat of battle, but often as part of an initiation ritual for inexperienced soldiers called the blooding. The head of the armed forces said it was deeply disturbing to the people of afghanistan on behalf of the Australian Defense force. I sincerely and unreservedly apologize for any wrongdoing by strident soldiers. Such alleged behavior profoundly disrespected the trust placed you know, us by the Afghan People who would ask just to their country to help them know he went along with the reports recommendations to refer 900 soldiers to potential prosecution in afghanistan, the countrys human rights body is also calling for the perpetrators to stand trial, but the question remains when and where the victims will get justice. Joining me now from head of the unrest in afghanistan is journalist arlene at the feet of donna stones human rights body, has called for prosecutions of the soldiers. But what does the government stand to be honest, the government has been very quiet so far. Theyve essentially just issued a statement saying that the australians made this Information Available that they apologized, that they, you know, put in the effort to put out this report. But they havent actually taken any kind of a hard and on the australians. They havent asked for any specific prosecution or any other kind of recompense. Theyve just acknowledged this report exists. Whats a reason behind this for pissants . To be quite honest, the avalon government is in a position where they have to keep foreign governments have be, you know, at the end of this month will be the change of a conference. And in that conference, the different donor nations, including australia, will decide how much money they want to give up on this thought. And the last few days theyve issued a report detailing exactly what they expect the on government to do on the one government doesnt feel like theyre in a position to really call for anything from these foreign governments, from which they are getting aid military assistance as a sense with the training of their military and also part of the reason might be that all of australia combat forces are now out of on this thought. So theres not really much that they can hold them accountable to here. And the government just is reticent to, you know, really rattle any cages in any foreign capitals. And youve also been speaking to people in afghanistan about the findings of this report. What is people being telling you . Its not surprising. Its absolutely not surprising because weve had similar instances with the germans and condos with the United States and condos in other provinces. Weve had it with i want government and so on where there have been drone strikes. Air strikes are there have been night raids where there have been reports of abuse in prisons and detention. So none of this is unfortunately rare or new. The one thing that they are saying is that, you know, this should be further proof that these, this is not an isolated case. This is not just something going on with australians. We have to hold every count, country accountable for these kinds of actions. But there has to be a full prosecution, is how confident are people that prosecutions eventually wed be carted out . Theres blood, then there is the likelihood that the prosecutions will be carried out. For instance, with the case of robert bales, who would you 1012. 00, went to a village and con dog and killed, you know, president women and children. And that night they called for him to be tried here, but he ended up being tried in the United States. And again, when he was tried in the United States in 2013, i want people wanted him put to death. Well, all he got what he got was life in prison. And so there is confidence that a trial could happen, but the outcome of the trial is whats really important to the people. Right, pretty even there for the time being. I mean, if youre speaking to us from just so much, the flood starts from spawning that theres this summer and in previous years, foreshadow what people there can expect from climate change. Farmland is disappearing, making it harder to raise crops that preceded the countrys growing population. But fun, most in the Southern Province of bunsen have revived an old technique to keep their fortunes afloat. Every year, the monsoon rains, flood more and more land in southern bangladesh, obeidallah mahlers vegetable fields, now floods for 8 months of the year. But malo has found the solution, is vegetable patches now float atop the waist high water. I watched my father do this. He had some plants on the water. But back then it wasnt systematic. We developed it further who have no choice, but to do this if we dont want to go hungry at 1st mama had to get used to life in and on the water. But his efforts of borne fruit, the squash is growing faster than ever before. He will soon be able to harvest them. Im not a duck president like the crops grown on the water taste better and have more vitamins. We dont need any artificial fertilisers or compost here. Thats why these vegetables are better than the ones that grow on the land. Much better model already has new seedlings growing nearby. The roots tap nutrients directly from the water. They are grown in compost, which is some light that it floats. Theres hardly any current here. So the vegetable patches which are held together with nets gently float on the water. Bangladeshs government subsidizes floating farms, spinach, tomatoes, cauliflower, and squash. A 3rd of the land could soon be flooded because of climate change. The floating gardens, which have been limited to this relatively small area, could become a model for the whole of bangladesh. More than a bomb of the things you dont want to bangladesh still produces enough food to feed itself. And what we dont have enough of is say feeds that is foods that are not contaminated with pollutants. Therefore, these gardens make a key contribution. Since the farmers here use far fewer pesticides as there are fewer passed on the water, thats an advantage for obama. At the local wholesale market, he not only sells his product use. He also sells seedlings to other farmers. Here in the equivalent of 300. 00 euros per month, 3 times the average in this region, for him, switching to a floating farm has been worth it. If there are good version of the 3rd, the seedlings that are grown on the land are weaker, ours are more resistant and they look fresher. Thats why we sell more than the land based farmers do. Our water seedlings are more sought after and we can command a higher price. Its, you know, thats also why the farmers of body salo planning, a massive expansion of the floating gardens. After all, bangladesh has always had plenty of water, and now it has even more theres a new face thats popped up among the crowds flocking to the prodemocracy protests. But just as you could say, taken under their wing, theyve come in handy in the face of Water Cannons and a bit of levity to demonstrations that have grown increasingly tense. Bringing a whole new meaning to the phrase duck and cover what started as a piece of fun. During antigovernment protests to mock m. P. s has turned into something a bit more potent. These inflatable ducks and now at the front line of clashes between protesters and the police used as shields in the face of police water cannon. Its fair to say the protesters have taken to defending themselves like ducks to get the rest get how many of them make it to please have been fired . Water cannon, thats us. We wouldnt have had to use them as shields. Theyd just be a toy for kids. If the police hadnt done this, we wouldnt need a duck shield to save us. I mean that make it right why these protesters want democratic and constitutional reform in thailand. While the demonstrations have been getting increasingly fractious and violent, the inflatable ducks have brought some much needed relief. I want, but the inflatable dots were any supposed to be in the water. Its were annoying the place because hes turned out so we can put them to good use, which made me laugh when he got me up. If i was with the government showing little sign of expecting the protesters, demands, now be more focused than ever on getting all that ducks in iraq. Im and thats it.

Hello and welcome lot of significant anniversaries on this edition of arts and culture. November the 20th is world childrens day and this year is also the 100th anniversary of save the children international. Also coming up, this years booker prize is awarded to 1st time author douglas, for his novel shuggie bank. And it is 75 years since the nuremberg trials started. A look at the city day and whats happening to the building Still Standing that constructed by the nazis every year since 959. 00 of the 20th has been world childrens day, it was created by the United Nations in conjunction with the declaration of childrens rights 1st introduced all matt day in 159, the Global Charity save the children itself, celebrating 100 years since it was founded as published, a book featuring stories of children who grew up in war zones and were helped by save the children. The book tells 11 stories of 11 children in conflict across the 100 years of say, the children for the projects im alive and i took photos of 11 people, but of all of whom were children in these everything cell 61 story god, it doesnt matter if youre in germany or cambodia or one down there, being a child in conflict is always the sign. The survivors represent the key conflicts of the past century around the world. The project started with a mom and a Syrian Refugees living in lebanon on a model is somalia is very important for us because she was the 1st one we photographed of another place. It was exciting to see her transformation this me and she became more and more alive. The more photos i took of her bending. The mold to survive was a child of world war one father. Surely it was wonderful to work with heavy heart 106 year old ashton. He just stood there and hes changed looking like a young man when you come on, those give me an idea that reality is everywhere. At some point has known war before i wanted to bring back that reality bring. The book shows the scots left by wars a decades past. The shift from cambodia story is often forgotten. Biggest issue to convey the shooter knows how to tell the story. The 53 year old escaped the cambodian genocide and is now a human rights lawyer know what links the protagonists is that they all had a connection to save the children. And so we can show the world the biggest story of war and children in wales like it was interesting taking photos of the different generations of not i need to tell their stories, but also it was you who was there survived in a few 100 years. The 10 people plus a baby born this year at one point they did regina, i wrote in chicago in a refugee camp in bangladesh, is the 11th child in the book, and a symbol of hope for a future without children involved. And joining me is my colleague school rock from you actually had personal involvement in this book project. Yes, i was brought a much later, the very good end of it. I did some translation in the translation for the book. And yesterday there was the book launch here in berlin, and i moderated sort of the press conference, which was quite amazing because we were able to have many of the survivors connected via the zoom from around the world. So jose from colombia was, was on the line. And also we saw on the piece of a truly from, from cambodia who survived the camaro and is now a human rights lawyer in cambodia was pretty sick. And the images a striking but walked sense this project apart from running. I think its the idea behind it, which is that they want to show the survivors of conflict and survivors of war differently. I mean, if you look at how most, well, most n. G. O. S, most people, the media, when we talk about children in war zones, we show suffering victims. So we show the devastation and then the horrors of war. And critics would say that if you only show those images of children like that in those horrible situations that you sort of to humanize them, that theyre only defined by the suffering that theyve, theyve gone through. And the idea of this book was to show them in a different way. So if you take the images on the cover of the book amal, shes a, a refugee from syria. She lives in a refugee camp in lebanon. But look at this image. I mean, she should always be a fashion model. She looks like a beautiful confident, strong young girl, and this is how she wanted to be depicted. So the idea behind this book is to give the power back to the survivors, how they want to be taken. So they dont to be only defined by their suffering, but also by their hopes and dreams of their basically like like all of us. But why show victims or survivors i should say from across a century of conflict. Why not concentrate on children today who suffered from war . Yeah, again, the idea behind it is to have the connections. So, i mean, theres no place on the earth that hasnt seen war at some time in its history. And basically the experience of war as a child is, is universal. Its the same everywhere. So whether its a mile to trial do, went through war in syria today or the oldest survivor in the book, which is eric carle whos now a 107 years old. German man, he survived the 1st world war as a child, then the nazi era, the 2nd world war. And he, i think really says it best in the book where he says that one of the reasons hes so supportive of Syrian Refugees in germany now is because he remembers being that starved child in a war when he was a child. And someone helped him. So he wants to, he wants to help the people, i can see you. So youre very emotional about it. Its a very emotional summer is a phenomenal book. Stay with us, scott, because we want to talk about another book. Its a book of prize time. And the winner this time its going to a 1st time author, my very astute coach, judges, and i have chosen that standing when and that is so keeping the 20 book of prize. Sorry, im absolutely stunned. I didnt expect a whole id like to 1st of all just thank my mother. I think ive been clear that my mother is and every page of this book and without her, i wouldnt be here and my work wouldnt be here to use. And so thank you. Now doctors are getting very excited, of course, very happy. Youre with scott just by chance. This is purely by dont start from the sheer scope is in the middle of rejig book. So tell us more about yeah, i bought it when it was short listed a number of weeks ago, but i didnt get around to read it until starting into it just last week. So im right in the beginning of it now. But a really amazing, amazing book. I mean its basically about childhood growing up in poverty, in glasgow, in the early eighties. So sort of the factual years. And its about a young boy who is coming of age in glasgow wall. His mother is basically coming apart, suffering severe alcoholism and a douglas too has set himself. This is very autobiographical. It really is his childhood story. His mother died of alcoholism when he was 16. And what i find interesting though, about the book is that its a 1st time novel, but i mean, its phenomenal. He east such a complete author, his voice is so so clear. And so present. I mean, its both very gritty and harsh as youd expect. Very raw in the language, but also times just incredibly beautiful, very, very poetic. I was really struck by it. I mean, it tells quite emotionally powerful moments, but it doesnt help being sort of mock issue or sentimental. I think its really phenomenal book. Im really excited to see what will come up with the next guy. Just briefly, the lot of booker Prize Winners books 1st of all, it makes them really internationally famous. And secondly, sounds a lot of books. And thirdly, sometimes they go to the movies. Will this wrong transfer of the Silver Screen . Yeah, it might, might. Well do. I mean you had great, you know, list was originally a booker prize winner and various others, the English Patient booker prize winner, being great films. This film would be more difficult. Its very wroth, very, very powerful, but i think ill bake it to make a mazing film if someone could pull off that combination of grit and poet poetry that he does in the book skull. I was always thank you very much. This week marks the 75th anniversary of the beginning of the nuremberg trials when the nazi leadership were tried for war crimes. At the end of world war 2, the city of nuremberg home to some of the largest buildings built by the nazis will for have a be associated with the darkest pages of german history. So what is happening to these buildings in modern day . Nuremberg, which holds such painful memories. d the sweepings upland grandstand in nuremberg. It was here in these purpose built grounds that hundreds of thousands of people gathered for nazi rallies led by adolphine. In the 1930 s. Each year, some 300000 visitors come to see what remains of the nazi era constructions of these buildings, which is still here today in a way a document of the National Socialist easier. But he leaked this means that as architectural relics, they represent a visual ideal that the nazi regime is bad. And if the ruins testified to a dark chapter of german history, if its have been made to demystify them, the zeppelin field has even been opened up to leisure time activities. d the delicate balance between remembering the past and opening the space up for a new story. I dont know how much the stadium, the tribune, and the sports facilities around us need, renovating the pitch. Works very well as a Sports Facility without the grandstand. And im also concerned that if its not renovated now, it will become a kind of memorial place of pilgrimage for any i nazis. And if its renovated, then perhaps it can be better used to the civilian sports purposes. Thats why my opinions divided on the part of the nazi party rallies. Complex is the unfinished congress hall. The structure is reminiscent of romes coliseum and would have hosted 50000. 00 people. Its one of the largest preserve National Socialist buildings today is house is the Documentation Center which office visit is insight into the history of the complex. And its important for us to make the stones talk with supporting and this means explaining the history behind this building. So self being transparent and always insisting on never again. And as our lesson from this History Lesson and on guiding people through the story with all the information we have for months on end, the 75 years after the end of the war. Nazi party rally grounds stand as a somber reminder of germanys past. Its stones will continue to serve as a warning for future generations. Finally, exhibition opening despite corunna other but if the guggenheim in bilbao, where 60 works by the russian abstract painter vastly convince the are on display, the actual mission is extended until next may. Because of a pandemic, as right now, only build ballons can visit museums. So lets view it from afar. I leave you with a taster of candids get the guggenheim.
