Representatives for 2 months, some republicans opposing it, even going to a vote. Still need send it approval before being signed into law. But that seems a little bit guarantee that the more left is the site is coming like weve got to be able to send it with, prove it so, so that you can, can re gathered strength of the fight back against russia. Then the question is, how soon the equipment could be on the ground. A pentagon spikes person said that munitions could be moved within days. Apparently, some of the west memories were ready in storage in europe, but it will still likely take weeks to get to ukraines front line military and they say that gives brush or a window to continue pressing its current advantage to some time its policies have been a bouncing slowly steadily of the wisdom, re, maybe enough to hold the bones of the summer offensive ukraine says rusher is planning, but its only a matter of time before the country really gave me to appeal for more us military. I dont homan out to zeta kiff. A vineyard has been held in australia as a victims of a stopping attack in sydney a week ago. The attacker killed 6 people, an injured 12 of me on the junction Shopping Mall just a week ago now. So hes assigned the 40 year old, had a history of Mental Health problems. He was shelton killed by police. A lot set for this bulletin, but ill see you in about 25 minutes time. When all the round up. If you need the listening post as next, why have american evangelicals become . Is real strong . This background is us president joe find the right to stand with israel with no red line. As long as us support continues. Is there anything that can stop is real simple on concept from going on in . Definitely a quizzical look at us politics. The bottom line. It was an Iranian Military attack that was made for tv. So was the, is randy 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 it is using on gaza is a story onto itself. Plus believers in kenya led to their graves by a tell, eventually, 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 regional war fits 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. The damage was minimal, 0 is ready, fatalities, and outcome. The 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 tallied when its primary back or the us had called for a straight at least publicly. Whatever happens next rons 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 involved 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 a bottle of nerves, the bottle for information superiority for International Support and sympathy. When our news feeds on that night, with the images of military fireworks in the sky is over. There was reason to fear the worst. Depending on who farm the story rons airborne assaults was either a reckless act of aggression that risk triggering a wider war, firing a 100 percent ballistic. Nissan is a dangerous escalation or a deliberate act of restraint. It only might have to know how does it prove to be a highly performative exercise onto iran . Sparks that resulted in no, is rarely fatalities have more to do with messages than anything else and have to leave warmongers disappointed. When 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 i guess 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. Sliding 9 percent of missiles were shot down. So from both sides i 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 defendants 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 is really hard lines like security minister, due to me are vanity to flight. I would call that link while the as rios cheerleaders, like the british prime minister, offered their approve. And we have condemned your wrongs reckless and dangerous biologists. Missiles against is found on saturday and is wrong. So itd be has the right to self defense, which was consistent with what had come out of the white house and many western governments. In the aftermath of a rons initial attack, that the, as long that grew up public was the address. Busy so lets be straight. Given the scale of this attack, rons intent was clearly to cause significant destruction and casualties. V 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, when challenged proved to be a hard sell what, what britain to the hostile nation slot, one of our comes to us we would take, we would take the very strong action under, on woodside, that thats what that is, was even those well aware iran has influence beyond its borders and uses its m the season console. It says cover when arming its regional. How long have said the is really strike in damascus was dangerously prevent here, i must be very, very critically about this, right. It was one of those adventures that these are, these kill me things only because it is possible. There was hardly a debate about the consequences of the prize about the day after. I mean, it explains it. We say damaging the military capability of the rod officer by law whole, im us, im not going to bother him, but hold him a call him to call. You all can let him know. I think thats what should always him should on. What is this rubbish . By the end of the day, its about showing cool is very much are these really james bone, the terence will never be achieved through us as a nations into a 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 a 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 iran in infrastructure, kills iranian sciences, iranian commanders on iranian soil. So this is not a one sided fights and you rarely see the western media trying to strike a balance and 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 proxies such as has vala in 11. All right, next door to is instead did not only send almost all of them from iran, get broadcast that some of those launch. Giving b 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 missiles, 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, towards hiring 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 would actually in danger its on stability. So there is a very major calculation about its own, a former abilities in the ways in which iran has responded. But there are 2 narratives that going on in your own 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. Their focus is on their daily lives. The economic conditions. And theres been a renewed crack down on the islamic headscarf new on the mandatory nature of it. And thats because very much undermine any funding around the flag effect from a, any 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 absurd 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 part of the sacred side. Youre wrong. Equally absurd was this youtube i posted online by the net from yahoo government trumpeting the intersection of a rons missiles and declaring that is real, which has spent 6 months old with her reading gossip and get some Muslim Population to act to, to protect some of these loans. Totally as signs. Its a so where they can, i mean, really, prof, i gotten that can go as far as it wishes, but is rather not to take the holy places. And he runs even target. They holy place. This is what it is violating severely for decades. The freedom of full folk sheep, the most of thems mainly palestinians to get there when its the, the time its about the. Busy may take a one, a little sympathy backs to is res notorious and you know so much but so easily. The problem is that these are what hes going to lose or the same procedure is going to be a goal for, for an estate k. As it seems now, as it eventually did, 6 days later of greater value to is reopen any sympathy or runs attacks may have produced is the distraction. It creates away from the her risk stories and still coming out of cost of so many more palestinians are getting on or 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 or on it. But the challenge genic story that 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 past week by the investigative new side, the intercept, moving 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, the sort on gaza. Theres nothing unusual about such style guides. Its Standard Practice across news organizations. What makes this memo controversial is some of the terminology. It was the papers journalist against using transitive photos should the guidance says avoid using the phrase occupied tennessee when describing Palestinian Land which israels ministry is according to international law, occupying as one time source interviewed by the intercept booted. That amounts to quote, taking the occupation out of the coverage when it is in fact the actually quote of the conflict. The memo also instruct stuff to steal kid of the to them. But if she comes 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 and use of this terminology is response to being does that support a times books . But some said that issue in guidance like this is to ensure accuracy, consistency, and nuance and how we called with the news back in february. Another intercept investigation into a widely discredited time support about the quote webinar ization of leap by him us on october 7th, v 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. Last year we aired a disturbing story out of 10 year about the dangers of religious broadcasting tell evangelism, 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, 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 answers 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 on mass of with just less mill. Indeed, a coastal town in eastern kenya, and are heading inland to the shuck, ahold of 1st. In much news broke that a woman had killed had 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 musk lives over today to more than 350 bodies and counting have been exempt. Their will or led to the 1st slide, 10 evangelist named pul mckinsey. Useful to have told them that the bill was in, and that in order to reach card, they would have to starve themselves to death. Fish, children, then women, the men, mackenzie said he would follow it, but he never did. So tell me about pull mackenzie, what do we know about him . Initially was a taxi and every monday deal he from these one minister now called good news, international ministries. The judge, according to the advisor who 1st went in, was just a good charged middle course happened until 2015 the now when it became a telephone, you nice to have a post us. The message started changing. He started introducing they showed a new with the prophecies, and all these prophecies was tested live on television. Now enough that one level full on my demis. Tell me about mackenzies follows those that followed them into this 1st. They came from fun. Why is because again, they had to follow as oliver. So presumably many of those people would never have heard of poor mackenzie written up for his tv channel. Correct . Based on an estimated 600. 00 of pulling mackenzies for those who are still missing and check on the 1st one of them is a woman named pamela nicholas. Single. Shes from been going back. Its accounts in northwest. Can you the opposite end of the country in india . 1000 kilometers from yeah, weve managed to find his son. Hes living and not robi, so im off to the capital to meet him. To 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 guarantee prosperity. Typically, in exchange for donations, which had made some till event to us very well and influential. For some viewers of some of the most valuable as the plumber stream directly into their homes of divine intervention. 5 is cost is previously resistible. Full, we can see is what we would refer to as a carrier, symmetric authority to the no, no, no, no problem as we get 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 when mystery kicks in, then you know somebody is believed to have information or news or power that other people dont have. And so thats the county of mystical element is what really endeared him to a lot of people coming in. What kind of thing his son lodges, she do says says that she would spend 2 days watching mackenzies times tv channels and was captivated by his simmons that promised spiritual feeling. She thought he could help her daughter who was suffering from Mental Health issues. This time last year she boots his mother, his sister, and her 3 year old daughter, left time to join the attend evangelist. Ok, mostly to find out my the, 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 on my kids. When religion comes under the agency media, then media transforms, thats religions. And so perhaps for people like pull mckenzie media tended to give them some kind of reputation and could create the ability to flake, causing the tongue with them. And watch general poll. Mackenzie is message with a 1st started out as what we would consider an instance of really just type us to, to you guys because it doesnt just start off as an end of time. We then see it moving into a space of deviance. Education is evil and then later on we see it moving into a space of danger. Shit, me. Im at the buckets. Yep. Ok. As the site the holiday. Yeah. Now its difficult to predict what the progression will be because not all diverse innovations of mainstream religion will become div yet. And the old deviant innovations of a mainstream agent will become down 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 thought and religion. The Communications Authority is the party responsible for regulate control 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 noncompliance. Little of the content it with you broke the rules. I also the director general how his organization monitors this kind of content. We use a system that loads the information. But when you have 322 visitations to you to make sense of that content that have 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 sees something unbecoming, then they able to report. Then we can now go specifically to track down that specific brook custom problem. I see with that mechanism is that you are relying on view of feedback, but often the views 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 our responsibility is enough to regulate the content of with your electric to logical nature. Unless the sort focus on 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 hold up, but that, that problem method content is in there it goes into prosperity preaching. Yeah, the nothing 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 the way they see best. So the risk of going thats for to that to end up being a full list of the peoples punches. But that balance has to be struck. It doesnt really big southern for us, for mackenzie is now in jail and faces multiple charges. But the media environment in which he strides, and the Constitutional Rights that protected him remains the same. Kenya is 85 percent christian, and 10 evangelists wield enormous influence to politicians, wanting to stay in power. Unlikely to challenge the hedge. Many of these to the past is and they all mean a faithful followers, even if that leaves an untold number of valuable people at risk. So im was, i talked to nick, i took up a little bit to get them a 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 under way 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. P are considered a lock to win and historic 3rd term t opposition leaders are in jail. Many others have been forced into the b, j. P by threats of legal cases or lowered and by the prospect of getting senior positions in the party. And that there is the undeniable domination of the indian media space by moti, from anchors on mainstream news channels, to influencers on social media. Even the bollywood elite, the b j. P is either convinced or coerced people into echoing the message that there is no alternative to moti, even worth debating. 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. The latest news as it breaks. Iran han had given a cause. Thatd be but it just come out. But your guys are not as popular to the board with detailed coverage, but the reason prices and the relative things are likely to get much worse before they get better.
