Also the debate on the freedom of expression was sparked 2 weeks ago in france after the beheading of a teacher near paris and his class characters of the prophet mohammed. And another news are to. Twitter to clarify why one of its reports on the us election was labelled potentially misleading. By the day here in moscow thanks for joining us on art. In france which is once again trying to come to terms with the tragedy tara struck on thursday morning in the city of nice when a knife and rampage through a Church Killing 3 and leaving several others injured the attack came just 2 weeks after the brutal beheading of a teacher in paris after hed shown his class caricature of the Prophet Muhammad president described the latest attack as an terror incident. It was relief but in this new tragedy today you see victims of islamofascism repeatedly denounced. As you know who descended. Upon for the siren of the firemen the Police Arrived quickly since really with bikers and everything that followed then they set up a Security System i went down with my scooter and i saw the guy come in take refuge in the cathedral afterwards a huddle lot of gunshots. A correspondent Charlotte Dubin ski has the latest from nice. The anti terror prosecutors said on thursday evening that they were still exploring lines in regards to the perpetrator behind the brutal attack that took place just 24 hours ago in the me not to the silica in the heart of nice with 3 people were brutally murdered i just want to take you through some of the details we know about the victims of this latest terror attack france one was a 60 year old woman who had gone to the church for prayers for the 1st mass of the morning we heard from the anti terror prosecutor that she was almost beheaded by the perpetrator a 2nd was a man a 55 year old man whos been named is of all saw cares a father of 3 who also worked as a sex in the church hed been here for 10 years and the 3rd person was a woman who said to be around 44 shes been named in the Brazilian Press as being simone silver she was stabbed she managed to escape from the church to raise the alarm so it was as a result of her heroic actions the police were informed and able to come and apprehend the perpetrator she succumbed to her injuries her last words were apparently tell my family that i love them president mark on has warned frances once again an attack but when he visited nice on thursday he remained defiant that freedom and france would continue to up hold its valleys in something if were attacked once again it is for our values for our taste of freedom for this possibility on our soil to believe freely and not to give in to any mind of terror when i say with great clarity once again today we will not give you this morning we decided to increase the vigilance everywhere in france to adapt to the terrorist threat ive decided that our soldiers will be more mobilized in the coming hours and will up the mobilization within the framework of operational so. From 30027000 soldiers on the ground from their referencing operation sentinel this is no permission that was set up back in 2015 when the 1st terror wave really hit france following the attacks at shawnee abdo and then later in the year in paris which saw the the battle plan attacked in those very many people who were killed in those coordinated attacks by terrorist 4000. 00 extra security personnel now deployed across france particularly at sites like this church and also at schools and one of the reasons that religious sites are getting the priority when it comes to security is because there was a release earlier this week from a thought but which is a press agency linked to the Terror Network al qaeda which suggested that christian symbols should be attacked in nice is already been subjected to terror attacks in the past including that horrific attack back in 2016 that sort 86 people lose their lives when a truck plowed into a crowd of people who were celebrating the july 14th bus the Day Celebrations in nice is already had its fair share of terror people here disbelief shock once again that this could hit at the heart of the city but there is also anger to. The man just as we want these people to be deported to their country all our coking security there is no safety 3 people i didnt know what do americans in the building of a more squishy misunderstood b. G. We are in a country that has witnessed atrocities teachers being beheaded having left throats slit people are beheaded in a church thats not france and even if we take in all possible security measures youve been able to come in with a knife on do is deadly deed 0 risk does not exist and thats perhaps the most shocking thing for most people is that this is 3 people who are in this. Church there in a place where that should have been sanctity there should have been safety instead they met there and people have been coming to the church in lame troops since that attack took place but the reality is that this is a community that is still in complete shock over whats happened since those attacks back in 2815. 00 which started this wave of terror in france we saw all those huge attacks in the years but since then every few months there is another attack just in the last 5 weeks france has been subjected to 3 separate terror attacks it started with a stabbing outside the form offices of. That followed the fact that the magazine reprinted controversial cartoons of the prophet mohammed angering muslims across the world 2 weeks later we saw the beheading of history teacher 30 who had used those images as part of a civics lesson to discuss freedom of speech and now we have this attack here in nice there have of course the anger spilling out on the streets here too not just in this process weve seen over the last few days in muslim majority countries but in the song thursday night there was a demonstration held by the anti immigrant group. They didnt it says they came out to the streets calling for islam to be out of europe so the really is a huge sense of anger here on the ground too. Meanwhile further details have emerged about the suspect a 21 year old to new zealand who initially arrived on the italian island of lampedusa just over a month ago claiming to be a refugee little easier to comment on the case but the mayor of lumber douceur has appealed for stricter migrant policies suspect was reportedly carrying a document issued by the italian red cross after being processed at a Refugee Center producer telling authorities were reportedly going to expel him but lost track of his whereabouts ok schools are not brought in rome where calls have been growing for the interior minister to step down we discussed the background to the tragic events in nice with a panel of experts. When you see what goes on with the stream of speech. And the people that sharing our chose to track theyre not doing it because of charlie are doing it because of of whats going on there they use it serves as a useful way of giving what theyre planning to do anyway legitimacy you know there are a lot of people who disagree with charlie or do it its all just thousands of what you would call is list is a mystic stream its. Its very few more to terrorists theres very few people who actually do deal if he is charlie or do it was so offensive it was so horrible surely they could be thousands of people on the streets starving one another its not its a tiny tiny minority what is it about the tiny minority that distinguishes them from all the rest of them and thats why you have to look at this individual level when one starts it almost gives legitimacy to the others so the reason that france has raised its terrorism level is because it takes one and its kind of like a rally around the flag now were all going to rule the ego because it becomes rational you know when you think you will get legitimacy for it. 60000000 muslims living in france you have a certain percentage who are radical in the last. Business branch has developed a model of as well that from seminars will security act but what france right now is so much more its false will. Sort of reconciliation and more polarized and trap but here i would observe that things have been going more in the polarizing but again supported by the majority of the french. Meanwhile muslim countries are indignant over frances stance on freedom of expression protesters say that theyre offended by president microns remarks on islam as well as by his defense of the right to mock religion. The latest rallies occurred in the libyan and israeli capitals as the islamic world celebrated the birthday of the prophet mohammed demonstrators carry banners that condemned the french president earlier in the month my trumpet claimed that islam was in crisis and in libya one local business is gone even further so far as to actually put images of the french president on the shop floor for customers to stand in the calls for muslims across the world to boycott france as you see here in the country there are big concerts its a little bit angry because of what happened after that it is solving the messenger of god Prophet Muhammad under the pretext of democracy is not considered democracy and for france honestly we want to tell you that your statements are offensive to every arab muslim and to the whole world that we demand demand. There. And it. Is playing with fire in this case interesting to see that we denounce france for offending the prophet therefore we denounce and boycott every product anything from france the council yes. Well the outrage comes as french satirical magazine. Caricature at the center of the raul i did feel to the far with the latest front cover it featured a cartoon of the turkish president ankara slum the publication is disgusting besides i dont think is of also been pointed to the french governments policy towards muslims because the of takes a closer look. Something in france is broken and it is france no where else in europe is that this much terror killing and a complete breakdown and Mutual Respect and understanding these latest attacks there just that the latest. Clearly its inhumane it is highly reprehensible and i hope that justice will be served this attack who deserves it i do have words as a matter of fact its really shocking. That when i feel sorrow it makes me crazy so crazy its impossible to see this im speechless i dont know what to say. A year ago macro and warned against stigmatizing muslims were all one people he said since then something has changed now hes talking about islam of separatism shutting down dozens and dozens of Muslim Charities and organizations and has unveiled a plan to domesticate is law. That our citizens of the islamic faith must be protected against the evil of radical islam but i say it here because the will of the islamists of its ideologues is precisely to turn up the heart of our citizens against the republic using their religion and we cannot let that happen. Macro involves forbidding frenchmans from training overseas so restricting foreign funding for religious organizations giving the government control over religious subsidies and you loon you get money if you sign a contract saying you respect french values he even has a name for this new french islam the islam of in lightman all everyone is challenged about macros little cult and specifically his cracked out on Muslim Charities and n. G. O. S if the government still goes on to divide us it will create separate groups in society and it is not the solution. To some guilty maybe some people who come in but not everybody people have the right to breath is their religion as they want so we can close a police who worship like that. I expect our government to calm the tensions down today we have to be careful of not developing and then to Muslim Hatred it makes no sense and it is dangerous i dont think that there is an optimal solution it would be utopian to think the opposite but dialogue is a better solution for me muslims are not guilty for the terror attacks the government is not responsible either so precisely both have to discuss the problem find salute. And respect each other it is incredible how simple cartoons can cause this much bloodshed and hated misunderstanding one side sees these cartoons as nothing but an insult in the public stunt which essentially they are intended only to insult and offend more than a 1000000000 people the other side including the french government sees it as an expression of free speech. Than any god and free speech is a constitutional right of any french citizen. And we will not give up caricaturists or drawings even if others retreat started this freedom and look at caricaturists not necessarily with mohammad but we look at kind of freedom of expression frankly i think its horrible what happened where hampering our freedom of expression the freedom to learn no for 14 years charlie has reprinted these cartoons at regular intervals a magazine with a very modest circulation has now found a cash cow for peoples feelings and beliefs for which they themselves have paid a high price. And. Swore never to give up these characters and tour. Even if everyone else does only further angering muslims oh yeah macron needs a Mental Health treatment what else can be said to the head of state who does not understand freedom of the leaf and dont behave in this way to millions of People Living in this country who are members of a different faith muslims are the primary victims of the cult of hatred empowered by colonial regimes and exported by their own clients insulting 1100000000 muslims and their sanctities for the apparent crimes of such extremists is not unique stick abuse of freedom of speech it only fuels extremism the recent statements that the leadership level is the dence of this a creation of the holy quran a reflection of this increasing islamophobia that is spreading in European Countries we must explain to the western world the value systems differ for different social and religious and ethnic groups in the world backgrounds tough talk has so far completely failed france as they are seen as an enemy in the muslim world islamophobia boycotts protests and all that as well his little project his plan to essentially domesticate islam in france may be the most ambitious thing has undertaken. Picture if executive of the u. K. s Ramadan Foundation says frances policy towards its Muslim Community over the last few decades has had a negative impact. You have to also look at whats been happening over these past few months with president warren islam and supporting it how rich are the prophet mohammed which is set out to do not think what to cause how men hate to good to feelings of muslims around the world that has been decades of discrimination and harassment mass unemployment People Living in ghettos. You know were being done to bring the mainstream to bring fridge muslims into the image the human tackle their issues so this is a consequences of successive governments over decades you know lets be clear that president michel and what he adopts the language of class of civilization is adopting the language of what the terrorists want to do they want to divide communities. It was you know i think the National Still to come this hour twitter flags on our team reports on the u. S. Elections as potentially misleading for American Voters will be asking why to this. Join me every thursday on the alex simon show and ill be speaking to guest of the world of politics or business im show business ill see you then. R. T. Has asked social platform twitter to explain why one of our reports on u. S. Election fraud was labeled as potentially misleading for voters who years ago the site was plagued by allegations of priscilla toting election aunties nikki aaron is following this story joins me now obvious question why is twitter done this nikki well neil i mean as we know leading all the news cycles around the world now is the u. S. President ial election which is days to go now until the big day reporters are all over analyzing the polls the process everything to do with this Major Political event and here at r. T. Were doing exactly the same but now for the 1st time ever one of our teacher reports has a civic integrity label on twitter that it was that is a warning if you like to read just the details of this report might be misleading they are disputed on closer inspection which is failing to see what it is about this particular report which is wrong alarm bells for twitter they are to news agency is of course subject of calm would casting regulations which means that every report must be balanced and fair and in this report our correspondent kaleb has seems to have adhered to those rules ensuring to use key words like allegedly and sure to keep it analytical yet balance as you know digging just a little bit deeper into a story is exactly what we like to do here at r. T. This why our logo is question more of course earlier this month twitter did say it would be ramping up its use of these warning labels on tweets to help curb the spread of means of a mention as the u. S. Election approaches you can take a listen to what they said. You may not use Twitter Services for the purpose of manipulating or interfering in elections or other civic processes this includes posting will sharing contents that may suppress participation or mislead people about when where or how to participate in the civic process we believe we have a responsibility to protect the integrity of twitter conversations from interference and manipulation and as part of this action by twitter theyve announced that disputed claims in the election process would be flagged or removed that tweets that include premature claims would be labeled and users would be directed to the official u. S. Election page and tweet that they ended inciting interference in the election process or the results such as calls for violence would also be removed now twitter as well as other Major Internet Companies have come under scrutiny yet again recently with the c. E. O. Of twitter being grilled in the senate we have a snippet of that your position is that you can sit in your time valley and demand. That you can tell them what stories they can publish or you can tell the American People what report they can hear is that right. Out every organization that stands up to twitter agrees to its terms of service youre still blocking their post right now to do your blocking their post now this senate tearing saw democrats and republicans grill the heads of Twitter Facebook and google which people are saying really highlights the deep distrust that people have when it comes to Silicon Valley policing the web. Yeah i mean there was a private company so the argument being they can do what they want that are not obliged to be independent of the huge argument still to unravel they always have a little bit of a thing for or something about our reporting because as i understand weve been labeled before while it is not the 1st time to it have come down on our t. V. The last time was there when it labeled arties editor in chief Margarita Simonyan russian account as russian state affiliated media media which came to a cross to some people is a little bit unfair because when it came to other news groups that are state finance such as the b. B. C. Or n. P. R. They didnt get the same treatment but its not just Twitter Facebook is also labeled arties account and state affiliated media to again failing to do the same for other foreign state media such as voice of america or aljazeera now this was facebooks position back then it said that were providing Greater Transparency into these publishers because they combined the influence of a Media Organization with a strategic backing of a state but its important to point out that its not just r. T. Thats the victim of this censoring if you like this comes just a week since twitter and facebook deemed it appropriate to remove links to a story involving hunter biden emails from his old laptop a story that could have caused quite a significant shadow over joe bidens chances in the race to the white house maybe joe biden has rubbish this report normal less whether its stories being run by the New York Post or by r. T. Or anybody else questions are already and increasingly being raised over how much power social media has in determining what people do and do not read on the web now we have requested twitter to comment but had no response yet well bring it to you when we do they will great. Big question is using it for really interesting to see what the response will be many thinks nikki. But with the pandemic pounding Health Care Systems across europe the european blocks movers and shakers they convened online the trying to patch up the problem they did agree on a number of lets say resuscitation measures reporting from berlin on how the you will battle the 2nd wave is peter oliver. Well it was a 3 hour video summit thursday evening from the e. U. Council they agreed on a couple of things one of them is that borders across the block should remain open they also talked about of a vaccine when it is discovered that it should be freely and equally distributed across the Member States for the law and the e. U. Commission president said that a united front was necessary to stop Health Care Systems across the you becoming overwhelmed i think it is enough to say that it is very serious numbers of cases are rising numbers of hospitalization are rising number sudden death of death are rising not this fast fortunately because we understand better today how to treat patients and how to deal with the disease but the spread of the virus will overwhelm our Healthcare Systems if we do not act urgently or france is back in lockdown on friday on thursday evening protesters clashed with police over that decision to read lock down the whole country tear gas was used as those clashes took place the french Prime Minister though acknowledged that the measures being taken were harsh but says they are necessary one depressed mom for a trip of up to one hour for physical activity to get some fresh air or to take your pets for a walk these trips may not exceed a one kilometer radius from your home i remind you that for physically only individual an outdoor practices such as jogging will be authorized in the specific context. Here in germany new lockdown measures come into play on modern day its been called lockdown light not as severe is whats happening in france right. Now but the the main message is still the main aim is to try and keep schools kindergartens and as much of the business sector open as possible now in italy is well theyve also seen a spike in the number of cases italy of course was so badly hit by the coronavirus in the spring with its medical services completely overwhelmed doctors that are concerned the same could happen again it was an affordable bit of good the it got the pressure is huge when we open the new unit will fill up very quickly many are in need of it as the 1st aid units in the region often have dozens of patients with the same problem patients that are in need of treatment for the authorities are struggling to hospitalized people due to a lack of beds or back in the spring medical staff in belgium were angry about the fact that they didnt have the correct p. P. The correct Protection Equipment to stop them from catching the virus now theyre facing a new crisis amongst people working in hospitals that theres just simply not enough of them theyre also unhappy that a bonus that was promised to them by the belgian government hasnt been paid whatever they sometimes we have to make careful choices that we have to prioritise this is inhumane it is just as bad for the patients as it is for us we wouldnt want our like you want to be treated been this way and im not going to go on that anger because we are understaffed were asked to come to morrow. And there is anger because since the credit crisis started the government has promised to get us bonuses up which we have never seen. Or belgium is expected to announce it will follow france into a severe lockdown and later on friday we also understand the European Parliament is going to be closing there to try and encourage any peace not to make the journey to the belgian
