Dozens of civilians are believed to have been tortured and much hello and welcome. Youre watching the week here on our team. When we look at the big stories of the past 7 days, and of course the very latest ones too good to have you with us. Well, one of the ones that really grabbed attention, a french bill intended to protect the police, has sparked outrage and several days of rioting in paris. The new measure, criminalizes, the filming of office, says if its done with malicious intent, its been pos by the National Assembly on will nature go up to the senate for approval. Holderness. As you can see, Police Vehicles are moving down and pushing the protesters down that the street protesters whove come a time came to Global Security lure to draw. 7 for real thats being discussed in the National Assembly on tuesday evening. This is a rule which includes an element which if cost could make it illegal for people to disseminate to record and publish images of Police Officers. If there is intent to harm criminalizing soon, all of the could lead to mourning amphoras who are now 45000. Thank you. Thank you for having. Ive seen women having their hey young to being abused to be grabbed by the head to be thrown to the floor by Police Officers, medics being hit by police battens. And in fact, as we were just at the metro station filming some of the violence against the protesters, we ourselves were forcibly chucked out by the police, my cameraman, who grabbed by offices while he was filming, while we were trying to do an interview and ejected from not crowd that. Oh my god, the image is over, the police are protests, have been used time and time again shown the violence thats been used that this law would essentially stop. Thats what unions say, they say that it is censorship. However, the government says this new is needed to protect Police Officers from the violence because while im talking about the police hitting protesters trying to move them around, we have also seen violence towards the police this evening. Weve seen bottles thrown into woods and fires being lit. We have seen destruction here on the streets of paris with the shelters being smashed in. So there is violence on both sides and the government says this new is needed to protect the police. Police unions say it doesnt go far enough and if it is a choice between freedom of the press and liberty, when it comes to showing these images to the security of their offices, they will side with the security of their offices every time the reality is it is been a brutal like with violence from both sides, but from where we have stood, the violence has been mainly coming from the police to watch protesters who for the most part, we havent witnessed them doing anything to well deserve some of the violence. Ive observed this evening, journalists and International Organizations have lashed out at the French Security bill. The u. N. Has called a threat to the freedom of expression. We decided to discuss the reforms with a couple of french violence may be used within the framework of the law where there is so steep turns, or if the use is strictly necessary and proportionate. And, but only only the possibility of filming freely without constraints gives these guarantees. But the rebel turnout of this is lower does not like the expression of Police Violence because he thinks that there is legitimate and illegitimate violence. I think in a nutshell, we can say that france is experiencing an authoritarian bonapartists rift, as it has unfortunately often experienced in its past. Im sorry to say that journalism is the cornerstone of a healthy society. You wouldnt have if youre familiar with the case of alexander ben, allow the bodyguard of president mccall or you would have george floyd if people did not film those events. You would know. And if you dont know, you slip into dark areas in and that, that article to any for which is part of him, along with the body cause in a war is, is detrimental to journalism. Theres already c. C. T. V. Cameras everywhere. Theres people from coming over. Everybodys got a cell phone, you cannot stop people from filming. And a straight, a military inquiry has concluded that blood loss and competition killing may have provoked the countrys special forces to moderate dozens of afghan civilians. Some of those horrific cases appear to have been part of an initiation ritual for new troops. There is credible information. The junior soldiers were required by their patrol commanders to shoot a prisoner in order to achieve the soldiers 1st kill in a practice that was known as bloody special forces inside, as pointed to a number of deeply concerning norms within Australian Special forces, including the shift from unacceptable behavior to war crimes the glorifying of these crimes as being a good soldier, competition, killing, and blood lust. The Afghan Foreign ministry has described the murders as quote unfit, give a ball and call for justice to be served. But for many afghans when scarred by years of war and regular reports of war crimes by the u. S. Led coalition, the findings came as no surprise. Afghans were killed as if our blood was worthless. The foreign soldiers come here to serve their own interests, not to help us, but an apology is not the solution. The Afghan Government must make sure that no foreign soldier can get away with killing afghans. The american soldiers killed many afghans in the past and the u. S. Would condemn the actions of its soldiers. But then do nothing about it. I am sure the same will happen, australia, because for them, one of the soldiers is worth a 1000000. Afghans like this traitor, foreign ministry, has written a formal apology to a couple for the atrocities, but as a leper trenker. Now explain such apologies tend to result or rather not result in any real action. 2 eggs, australia, and afghanistan, thousands of kilometers apart. One, a very keen to help the other. We remind committed as i. E. Nation to assisting afghanistan in resisting it. Terrorism. Resisting the Taliban Forces providing in cooperation with other countries. I label of stability and to live a lives curity as that youll country can build for itself a strong and prosperous and secure future. It took the australian Prime Minister a bit more than 13 hours to fly over to kabul to say all that a bit more than 13 years ago. By then, australian troops had already been engaged in the war torn country for several years, almost 20 years ago since the aussies got involved. Their number one military man has no other choice, but to say, sorry, i sincerely and unreservedly apologize for any wrongdoing. By a stroll in soldiers, i say no choice because allegations of 39 civilian deaths at the hands of his Defense Force as a result of blood lust and competition killing deserve an apology or actually, much more than that large parts of the military report. We cant even read their blacked out, but even whats available, sounds horrendous and disgusting. This shameful record includes alleged instances in which new patrol in the members were coerced, to shoot a prisoner in order to achieve that soldiers 1st kewl in an appalling practice known as bloody atrocities. Range from reports of troops killing a 6 year old child and a house raid to a prisoner being shot dead to save space and a helicopter apology given measures to be taken culprits to be punished. Compensation to be paid. But just think of how many times since 2001, we heard the same kind of stuff from the kolisch. Do you call . It was just one of the course. President obama spoke by telephone to apologize and express his condolences for the m. S. F. Staff and patients who were killed and injured. Sincere apologies for any offense. This may have caused my apologies to the president of afghanistan, and we will make sure that anybody who was involved is held fully accountable with the full force of the law. It all makes you wonder, just how many more thousands of deaths or command full pause. Were still unaware of, especially when its revealed how much the people in charge were in denial about what they were doing. The problem is there is a disincentive, really, to tell the truth. We have created an incentive to almost require or for people to law. So well, the latest report that left the aussies red faced lead 20 strategic consequences and military mindset u. Turns. Well, judging by how badly trumps plans to cut the troop presence in afghanistan have been received. Is just Wishful Thinking for now. Weve been in afghanistan for almost 20 years, and no nato ally wants to stay any longer than necessary. But at the same time, the price for leaving too soon or in including 1000, we could be very high in afghanistan. Risk becoming once again, a platform for terrorists to plan and organize attacks on our own lands. So i guess it means more apologies could only be on the way to cost you about your former governor. Although afghanistans gazmin province told us that the actions overstrained forces follow a long running patent in the coming years. These are something that is very serious and we feel that that is beyond our comprehension. And im really appalled for that. How could anybody and the name of humanity will what even do that, especially with this poor afghan people. And we hope that that will manifest to Something Real and not only for the australian, but also other nato countries. And also United States who have committed similar acts in afghanistan also needs to pay heed to this issue and reconcile their own differences that i have done in afghanistan. Taping agency has criticized a u. S. Bill to jail those involved in sports taping, except in u. S. Leaks. Want to said it will destabilize global anti doping efforts by giving the countrys domestic athletes a free pass. And you do bring agency wishes to understand why this legislation excludes vast areas of u. S. Support. In particular, the professional leagues and all college sport. It is not good enough for american sports. Why is it fine for the rest of the world . Washingtons rolled out its latest offensive in the war on performance enhancing drugs. Its called the rod chunk of act, the right of anti doping act of 2019 which strengthen the integrity of International Sports competitions by imposing criminal sanctions on certain persons involved in International Doping fraud conspiracy. The act would green light washington for legal action against doping conspirators in games involving american players and it outlines some have to be penalties, fines of up to 1000000. 00, as well as prison sentences of up to 10 years. A dream come true for the usa today. It is a monumental day in the fight for clean sport worldwide, and we look forward to seeing the act soon become law and help change the game for clean athletes for the good. Considering how the u. S. Has treated domestic doping in the past. The log book could probably use of updates take Julian Edelman, the patriots shining star and super bowl m. V. P. His career seen some great achievements with a little help from dope patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman is facing a 4 game suspension for performance enhancing substance a 4 game suspension is quite a long leap away from 10 years in the can for edelman though, the cushy treatment didnt end there. He was still showered with awards at the years and even sealed advertisement deals. There are no rules in basketball. Its a similar story. Last year basketball, prodigy deon, dreyer, 8, and was caught doping up his punishment jail. Just kidding. He was suspended for 25. 00 games and then showed up on the jimmy kimmel show. Hes a member of the n. B. A. All rookie team from the phoenix suns. Say hello to deion 38 and hello to gray. And heres the best part. Hes now the face of a Protein Health shake commercial highs in the price. Thats how you know washingtons long made it clear, they take doping in sports very seriously. When of course, it suits their agenda. This has nothing to do with lees welfare or looking after us. If it did, it would be totally different stuff looking out for the us. Its not going to vote for the sponsors of the sports. Its simply looking out for the money interests of the hollanders, media, and government. Its nothing to do with r. C. Whether because it was a welfare they would have voted in across the board to all the Major League Sports in america would sign of the media to water. But you wont do that because the owners of the big major sports teams and Media Networks who cover them and a huge the mass of his situation. Investors in these sports wont get them. So does, has nothing to argue whether this is simply about greed and the dollar still had one close to 20 to death, a minute saying graham rakhal wants that in the us. Well tell you how americans are now bracing for strength to knock down in just a moment. The world is driven by a dream, shaped by one person of those who dares thinks we dare to ask so what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have. Its crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is often skeery dramatic developments. Only really, im going to resist, i dont see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time to sit down. And tom. Welcome back. Now, a truce between armenia and azerbaijan continues to hold in the disputed karabakh region with russian peacekeepers deployed in the area. Those forces are now helping refugees return to the homes. But i thought these were our gods to found out. Its not an easy homecoming. The war may be over, but the humanitarian situation. Here instapundit here is still dial scenes like this are repeated hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of times across the city and left to their own devices. Look, emergency workers would be overwhelmed. This is why russia has sent help aside from peacekeepers who patrol the routes and heights. Russia also said civilian rescue is and genea is father been billed as the gauge the devastation and estimate how much aid will be required. Its neither easy nor quick. Lets go for the next one. How many do you have on your list . Oh, there are too many. How many have we visited today . About 50, neither is it pleasant. Every creator has a story. Every destroyed whom has its goofs and with almost every visit. We hear again and again about how he were a she were all of them died. They were in this room 2 cousins and my grandmother. I was in the room over there which wasnt destroyed. I fell of my bed, opened my eyes, and only saw dust. It took me 5 minutes to crawl out the window. Help has come from all over the world, humanitarian organizations, lukoil and russian, rescuers catalog ruin. After wreckage, our 1st task is to cover all the broken windows and glass, so people can survive the winter. Its some pleasant even scary. I had some role in the construction of many of these buildings is painful for the priority now is making carol livable again, wreckage will be cleared later, but light damage has to be repaired. Now people are doing what they can, plastering, move a smaller holes and covering empty window frames with plastic sheets. But there are laws and even for that. My house a poisoned heat, so bad. The blast wave for live, blew the windows solid. But there are homeless which suffered much worse, so really cant complain. The city is slowly coming back to life. The shock of the war is wearing off and with every returning refugees. There is a sense that the city of state by the character has come back from the dead. But in every street there is a somber reminder that life will never be the same. And some people just cant come back. Every day we drove by this house, and this is suds, every time a dog guarding the house thats been destroyed. And the family that is in there. Guess, do you see from the just remind of the peace deal was signed between armenia and azerbaijan. 2 weeks ago and it ended more than 6 weeks of deadly fighting over the new corner car park region. The territorial feud has been ongoing for almost 30 years now back to a new era found will hold on to the current military positions. Armenia will keep control of the disputed regions, largest city thats to punish cut and also by john will take the 2nd biggest city which it captured just before the fighting ended on media will also have to handover 3 of the districts. Meanwhile, police in armenia have detained more the 90 protesters during rallies against the peace deal. Demonstrations have been ongoing for almost 2 weeks demanding the resignation of Prime Minister. Nicole, who they branded a traitor for the premier, says that he had no other choice, but to sign the truce on that. If the conflict had continued tens of thousands, armenians would have died. The u. S. Death toll from cope with 1000 has beyond a quarter of a 1000000. Infections reached a 6 month peak this week on the virus is now killing one american a 3 minute in new york. Fears of a new lock down have prompted people to stockpile basic goods. Supermarket chains already struggling to keep up with demand, have put limits on the number of items. By reporting from the big apple. Thats arties caleb open the virus giving no sign of abetting. Many hospitals around the country have been pushed to the brink. One nurse in texas told the horrors of overcrowded more. We never says its ok for us to be exposed to with the do not even coming to your u. K. Music file, but we can hear a yawn making on the monkey. In fact, it has gotten so bad that in el paso, texas, its Prison Inmates whove been given the job of transporting bodies in north dakota. The governor has signed an order saying that medical workers who test positive for coded 19 should still show up for work as long as theyre not showing symptoms. Nurses are furious. Union leaders say this is putting workers in mortal danger. We really feel like it has a mission that patients be interesting as well, who really worry about a nurse are now. Nurses are exhausted across the street and everybody in that assay and having to turn and we have asked people to really be heard. And to quarantine up their contact and im positive and were going to turn around, im going to work with that. We are totally counting any of our respect and then credibility that we dont believe our community or not. And for politicians, though, the Public Health crisis is an opportunity to point fingers and blame each other, joe biden blames the coronavirus deaths that have been forecasted for the next few months on donald trump and his refusal to concede the election. Furthermore, joe biden is saying that donald trump is the reason that Many Americans are suspicious of the vaccine. What do you see as the biggest threat to your transition right now, given president trumps unprecedented attempt to obstruct and delay a smooth transfer of power. More people may die. The only reason people question the vaccine now is because of donald trump. Now polls are showing that only about 58 percent of the American Public is willing to get vaccinated. And that is not going to change depending on whether or not donald trump is willing to concede the election results. If i took it, if some people might die again, with the mud down no vaccine. And some people might die in the future, like in 10 years. So even if it got tested that it was positive and it had no ill effect, i still wouldnt want to take it. I want to see like what the actual effective rate is, how the doses are going to be administered. Is it a single dose . Is it a 2 dose like how . Like what the gap between doses. So just more information in terms of what the actual rollout will be. The covert 19 pandemic has devastated the country both in terms of Public Health and the economy. There is not much optimism right now, and theres not much hope that a new administration in the white house is going to turn things around and art see new york. While youve been watching the week here in all, its not gives you a good idea of the big stories of the polish 7 days. We hope you visit us again. So join me every thursday on the alex simon show. And ill be speaking to guest of the world of politics. Sports business, im showbusiness. Ill see you then. Its been decades since the fall of spains fascist regime, but old wounds still havent healed me from a dog about a metre by war to me on the bus at us as mean older than us. And i think ultimately, you know, cells and of newborn babies were torn from their mothers and given away and forced adoption. That only leaves the feaster to this day mothers still search for grown children. While adults look in hope for their birth parents. New gold rush is underway in ghana. Thousands of ill equipped workers are flocking to the gold fields, hoping to strike it rich. Heres the good. As they are by those that work children are torn between gold was very poor. I thought i was doing my best to get back to school. Which side will have the strongest appeal . Big city bright lights, huge opportunities and many dangers. Like any capital city, moscows standard of living, comfort and growth rates attract people from all over the country and beyond. And they all come with different intentions. Its also a city where up to 300000. 00 crimes are committed every year. When those in the middle to get into law school is also not rational thought some of the worst of the its thought that there was at least one Police Officer for every 200 of the 12000000 residents in russias capital. In a trick of the another with a coming in without these people in uniform. Moscow just couldnt develop as fast as it does. And it wouldnt be moscow, as we know it for a song to her for a bit of hand to hand drug dealing is old school, illegal websites, selling narcotics in russia, make annual profits of at least 1500000000 rubles. And the vast majority of those are conducted in moscow. I dont want to shift from a version of the war planes have been one of theirs, but not sure which this is a special police squad that provides support for the russian interior. Ministrys drug control directorate for many long histories of various operations against criminals and terrorists today their drug traffickers for much more than you must
