Meanwhile some french t. V. Channels have started airing the controversial cartoons in defense of free speech and dozens of raids have already been carried out against suspected islamists but ordinary french muslims now fear they will bear the brunt of the governments response shall depend ski reports. In the wake of samuel pattis gruesome murder the french state wants to show that its being quick to act police have raided the homes of islam is activists engaged on social networks more than 80 investigations for online hatred have been arrests have already taken place since yesterday around 50 associative structures well see a certain number of visits from state services all week long and several of them my suggestion will be dissolved in the council of ministers this latest terror attack is only likely to harden the state starts until its already led to more accusations that muslims need to take cover or are calling me asking me whether i was raided or not so we have wished the poor into that everybody. Would be rooted out 5 or 6 oclock in the morning here that you know i will have to be careful of what i post of my freedom of speech as a human rights activist is literally on the balance among still going on as asians in the crossfire or n. G. O. S including the collective against islamophobia in france also known as c c i f it describes itself as being a Human Rights OrganizationWhose Mission is to combat islamophobia but frances interior minister says the group is linked to a parent to launched a fatwa against teacher samuel party which it thought led to his assassination it received state age we have evidence to say that it is an enemy of the republic c c says it is the victim here since yesterday we have been the target of Death Threats and a companion of her. The demands the disillusion of. Face to so many smears of uncredible indecency given the context our team is now receiving growing support thank you from the heart raids following terror attacks all commonplace but for some of these purges dont target the root of the problem this problem be so widespread were talking. Literally thousands of people who are would be deemed to be in some way. To terrorist groups in the u. K. In paris in france in belgium and other countries so theres just an enormous number of people and by the police we can have almost to. Be from the extreme and that will do some good but this is a problem an assault is going to go on for a long time to calm the least a generation islam islam in france was already in the spotlight in recent weeks president emanuel might call that outlying details of a new no aimed at protecting frances secular republic from foreign influences but cohen said a minority of the countrys estimated 6000000 muslims were in danger of forming peril to society and accusations followed that he was trying to a price is low in france. Associations to defend the rights of muslims who are bought off by microns police in short the message is muslims were going to screw you up. Well the french unanimously condemned the attack which led to the beheading for professor yesterday some take the opportunity to settle their scores by slipping into the most abject islamophobia the interior minister says its now possible to see how political islam has joined forces with radical islam and ultimately is leading to terrorism many muslims may now feel that they are under attack with suggestions that some real parties death opens the floodgates to a political trial of those organizations say they struggle against islamophobia jollity even r. T. Paris. France and germany have the largest muslim populations in europe and both grappling with similar integration issues as evidenced by a recent case in germany now devolves the lebanese doctor who has been denied citizenship all because he wouldnt shake hands with a female official if the applicant refuses to shake hands for gender specific reasons which are incompatible with the constitution there is no integration into german Living Conditions now the man who has not been publicly named moved to germany 18 years ago he completed his medical studies there and now works as a senior physician in his citizenship test to go top marks in german history and values but of course quite his refusal to take to shake a womans hand as indicative of fundamentalist views but dr denies that saying he simply vowed never to touch any woman other than his wife now this is not the 1st time that the traditional greeting has courted controversy a muslim 2 couple was similarly denied swiss swiss citizenship again for refusing hunch aches for members of the opposite sex officials that it showed a lack of respect for gender equality but not all cases go the same way for example a muslim woman in sweden was compensated when her Job Interview was cut short because she wouldnt extend a hand to a man we had some contrasting views on the issue. The. Procedure just showed that there was a problem with the integration process of this person and you cannot look into peoples hearts and minds but that was a clear signal that he still is here to a totally different belief and value system than the one which is the app lived in germany since centuries and therefore i find it correct that they took this as a signal syrians and rejected the naturalisation of live in his person rainer this is a cultural and political process and we have freedom of belief and conscience and youre right there are limits to that i agree and i help governments in this country and elsewhere radicalization extremism terrorism i do this for decades just trust me. If somebody doesnt shake your hand and he is carrying out his functions as a doctor treating patients on a regular basis its not the end of the world hes a contributing taxpaying that society and we should have tolerance if this is a sign it dad in chanterelle he regards the women as a seductive as a danger for his own behavior and and this shows that he has brought with him cell really an outdated view of women and this will create further clashes in the future of this is a part of our culture of life that teaches let me change in no way so who cannot accept this culture you should simply not work here or long for this it doesnt ship of such a country you dont get to tell muslims what this messed up version of a stalinist at least the. Policies in place to protect not what is going on is about the truth what its lost its what liberties about things. Principles general principle democrats if you want to pretend that you need to add here to some basic value systems. Otherwise the society will fall apart and in the end all the nation states will fall apart and maybe this is in the interest of many people but in my dreams and its just a normal situation sure of europe to conserve society in that complexity that we already have in their colorful ness and keep them as open and really tolerance basis without radical fuz. Just a couple of days after being signed the 2nd truce between armenia and azerbaijan seems at risk of collapse fighting continues across the disputed nagornokarabakh region spilling beyond its borders as well local journalist el mir in the day was caught up in shelling was reporting from outside an azerbaijani factory. Lets listen to what you did notice about is almost you out of many a good one that also vision because you know you know absolutely what really goes those couples you know you have to settle for Peter Roebuck you do know that. You dont produce but there are stars that says this new ad bassma. Will smooth. Intense fighting today. Along the entire front fly to louis has been walked into the direction of. The night so exposed so often and so loudly that we could heard it from the neighboring city which is 30 kilometers far from from flying as it only morning when it was a thought from the roof of the war this indian has became an Atheist Center to the big school marmion side still continues now and so there to text. The territorial feud stretches back more than 3 decades and flared up at the end of september but sides are blaming each other for civilian casualties and damage soldiers on the karabakh front line claim the hours are by johnnys side is sabotaging the ceasefire. In reality the truce has not been upheld as for defensive positions there has been no shooting but we hear from the positions on our right and left explosions i assure you that its from the adverse reason not from us this is one of the. By these areas. Ive been fighting against the as a response to the 990. 00 s. And again i fight against them so their perverted feet will not step in our clean armenian land dont pollute our homeland we wont allow it. It doesnt matter from how many countries they bring mercenaries nothing can beat an armenian soldier. When an armenian soldier stand strongly on his feet he will repel anyone no one can enter our armenian lands once your. Second wave of covert 19 is gathering pace across europe with belgium france and spain among the worst hit case numbers are now far higher than during the peak spike in spring peter all of our reports from berlin. Lots to get through different measures being taken in Different Countries across europe will start from where im talking to you from here in germany while most of germany has got off pretty lightly compared to its european neighbors what weve seen on tuesday is a full red alert announced in the back to know region of bavaria in the south of the country 2 and a half 1000 tourists being told youve got to go and they have to go immediately that says the berchtesgaden a region goes into this full lockdown what that means is that schools are going to be closed all of them are going to be cancelled restaurants are only open for takeout and people have been told only to leave their homes if theres a good reason to do it now those good reasons do include business and also exercise but it is a serious step being taken by the authorities in bavaria there and in poland which is one of those countries that fared reasonably well in the spring when we 1st saw over 19 ripped through europe its not doing so well now with the government there is put in place a series of measures which includes things like closing gyms however we have seen some fitness clubs attempting to get round that one in krakow in particular has relaunched itself as a church of the healthy body in an attempt to circumvent ban on gyms and places of worship are allowed to open but while they are doing that the authorities in poland taking things a little more seriously in fact theyve turned the National Stadium in warsaw into a makeshift hospital as the jew the polish government prepares for the worst human machine the chinese we must also think about darcus naruse if we are not able to stop the pandemic in our country temporary hospitals will be necessary we open the 1st Field Hospital here we are ready to open a network of similar hospitals around the country in the near future in. Jane more cities going into lockdown for 2 weeks nevada the latest to do just that thats around 650000. 00 people will be locked down they join parts of madrid as well as. Areas in the castiel and leon area that have also been put into into lockdown that means bars restaurants wont be able to open it supposed to last for around 2 weeks but that could roll on depending on infection rate spain saw 25000 extra infections of covert 19 over the weekend moving north and the island is heading into 6 weeks of whats being called extreme lockdown the Prime Minister of ireland maaco martin said that households would not be allowed to mix with one another and your not supposed to go more than 5 kilometers from your own home in measures that will last until the beginning of december now in introducing this extreme lockdown the irish Prime Minister said he did see a light at the end of the tunnel i understand and i feel very personally i prefer. The sense of disappointment the feelings of loneliness perhaps even the despair that dissonance and will bring for many if we pull together over the next 6 weeks we would have the opportunity to celebrate christmas in a meaningful way or last week belgium puts itself into a lockdown whereby bars and restaurants would be closed for a couple of weeks however despite that politicians are still warning about the threat of a tsunami of infections is how they are calling it and also if we look in italy the long term that the region has seen a huge spike in infections thats prompted the introduction of a nighttime curfew hospitals theyre concerned that they may become overwhelmed as they did back in the spring and the 1st wave of covert 19 doctors saying that the reason for this curfew the reason they believe is behind this spike is people well people going about their daily lives and trying to get back to normal as much as possible. Respiratory viruses do not have legs it is people who spread the long body is a very dynamic region very active with a lot of population and then a large concentration of population in the cities doing a lot of things seen a lot of people havent a lot of work in and meeting activities facilities the spread of the wires overall its a pretty bleak picture here in europe one big question that nobody seems to be able to answer though is why countries like germany sweden and denmark arent bearing the brunt as much as their neighbors. Allies of the ousted president of bolivia even marar lists are celebrating victory after sundays election early results show a convincing victory for louis our say a former minister under muralitharan a member of his Left Wing Party what do you know the bolivian people have given a lesson in democracy and perseverance people have managed to resist the coup de facto government to massacres and administration of the pandemic marked by inefficiency corruption several election postponements and the worst economic crisis in our history. If murali as was forced to step down by the Bolivian Army last year after weeks of violence countries including the us claimed his election victory was rigged mariahs however described events as a coup he was succeeded by an interim government which were paid to be postponed elections due to the coronavirus pandemic as a result bolivia has been experiencing political instability for about a year now with frequent violence and mass protests around the country and has left many citizens craving a return to normality we spoke to some of them. You know we want to leave peacefully without roadblocks and protests a new leader for a new believe year we want a president who helps the countryside the poor people we dont want any right wingers. I feel happy happy because we want economic stability we want peace in bolivia we want bolivia to be reflected abroad again as a growing country. Early arties maria for national discuss the details with my colleague andrew farmer. This whole election is one big and unfortunately very bitter irony that to believe in people paid a very high price for their winning candidate mr r. C. A. Used to be finance minister on the morale is that hes from his party from his team hes one of his closest people i mean supporters and that comes after almost a year of violent turbulence political repression and complete nightmare to be honest the country has been living in after the previous president ial vote the one moral this one was very aggressively in loudly announced as it was in november and some studies show that november became the 2nd deadliest month in terms of civilian deaths caused by state forces since believe it became a democratic country 40 years ago. The organization of american states and known as as was basically leading this whole campaign to blacken last years elections after 84 percent of the votes were counted there was an official tally saying that mr morale is. Around 46 percent of the votes and he got an 8 point lead but after. The all the votes were counted it was all over there was an official report finally and that lead increase to 10. 5 points the opposition was saying that weve seen a sudden spike in favor of this right at the end of this election therefore result bristly rigged but there were there was an explanation it was a very simple explanation the air is reporting later were more prawle morale is in this is why when the last 16 percent of the vote. Counted that lead increased so dramatically and by the way that may happen and weve seen that happen in other countries with similar systems like the United States of america for example in america by the way was very quick to supports their position and to welcome what they describe as people fight for justice and democracy we salute the courage and strength to believe in people who have protested against a government trying to steal an election we reject this ridiculous claim that the legal. Roger. Is somehow all countries deserve free fair transparent and grab elections the organization of american states report on believe year makes it clear that believe ins were not given this chance to stop the violence hold elections and the work with jenny the new years and the Transitional Government to bring democracy back well ok bolivia seems to have democracy now but thats not how many people have described the last 12 months Human Rights Watch the issued a report just disappear like analyzing studying the time when the interim government in believe there was in charge of the country and there is a huge. List of violations like many examples of how not good and far from democratic it was and this is why now mr r. C. Says that after 11 months of this nightmare people often leave i mean they know better what the true democracy is to the new during last years elections some people took to the streets calling for democracy and now 11 months have passed and we dont have democracy and even worse we have a totally destroyed economy so bolivian people can now compare the work of our government during 14 years in the socalled work of this interim government believe it is now coming back to where it was back in october last year but with so many losses with destroyed economy with dad you know and the question now i think is whether those responsible for pushing the country there will ever ever respond. But livias interim president has congratulated say on his victory on the main rival candidates has conceded defeat however Latin American AffairsAnalyst Daniel schorr thinks u. S. Banks forces could still try to undermine the democratic process in bolivia. I mean the Movement Towards socialism never ceased to be popular but the cool mongoose the neo liberals forces with the support of. The pentagon the state department here in washington in the rowing forces across the continent. This is an amazing victory for the overwhelmingly indigenous the majority of bolivians who are indigenous but we should not expect that this political victory translates overnight into an economic victory. The right wing forces supported by the us are going to do everything to push back against the us against. In the peoples victory so this is going to continue to play out in the course of the next hour as the months to use. The u. S.

Nov 3rd election day and america is edging ever closer some are not just nervous about the results but nervous about the real potential for violence in the streets over the course of the past few months amid the pandemic tensions have been at boiling point at some point even boiling over violence has taken place at political rallies. Last weekend it was boston that was the site of scuffles between Trump Supporters and left wing activists videos. Like this are becoming more and more common across america. Was. The country is becoming more and more polarized you have this which is brew that really hasnt happened in americas history and defeat hands its been decades if not centuries right wing militias and are both heavily armed and both walking the streets freely in american cities.
