one of our own in that way. the candidate emeritus, the standard-bearer emeritus like john mccain is. >> people who like trump are concerned that trump is exposing that embarrassing underbelly the perceived old party of white men who don't like women blacks or hispanics? >> old white men or young white men, if you look at it on paper. donald trump is just like that and i think the problem that trump runs in here, this has to come from the within the party republicans don't embrace him as one of their own. it has to come from within. >> investigators are pouring over the contents of mohammed

it's from inside gaza. that's scary when your enemy is one of your brothers are if your country. we should protect each other. >> reporter: they were quick to say all is under control and a number of arrests have been made but no specific group has been named. it's not the first time that hamas has been attacked from within. often salafi groups, or islamic state of iraq and the levant. hamas say i.s.i.l. is trying to destabilize gaza. >> any instability of gaza will be seen as a weakness of hamas and often these salafi groups launch attacks against israel, and any attacks against israel also cause hamas instability because israelis hold hamas as responsible for missiles coming out of gaza. >> it's a year since israel and palestinian factions led by hamas fought a 51-day war. much of gaza has not been rebuilt. there is high unemployment and israel maintains its blockade on the strip. add to that attacks coming from within. >> i'm really afraid what will be next. now it's a car maybe next it's a mosque or a hospital, you never know. >> the salafi group says they want hamas to implement islamic rule. it is hard for hamas to show they are in control. hamas faces a real challenge when it comes to maintaining stability. it's not the first attack on hamas by groups inside gaza but it is the biggest. even though there is no fatalities, it is something that has hamas extremely concerned. stefanie dekker, al jazeera gaza. >> the u.k. could soon step up its fight against i.s.i.l. british prime minister david cameron says he considers i.s.i.l. a threat to the nation's

denies spying. harry fawcett reports from seoul. >> found dead in his car in an apparent suicide next to him a three page will, part of that will has been released to the media on sunday in which the agent says he can reassure the south korean public that the hacking program he was involved in and whose technical operations he was also involved in was not used against south korean civilians. he also apologizes for deleting some of the data, he was being overzealous in attempting to keep the controversy from the nis, restricted its usage to the monitoring of north korean agents and foreigns with links to the north korean regime. however the service does have form in this area in the past, the two spy chiefs in charges between 1999 and 2003 were both convicted having overseen the monitoring of over 200,000 south koreans in the world of business and media. and just in 2012 the agency was found to have used its online presence to smear the liberal opponent of the presidential election, park gung he. the nis is saying it will reveal further information to reassure the south korean public in the coming week. law makeers in the south korean parliament are saying that the information that was deleted by this man should be restored to check exactly how it had been used this hacking program. it was one of the bloodiest chapters in african history a regime accused of killing as many as 40,000 people between 1982 and 1990. now, the former president of chad is going to stand trial in daccar a trial being held on the african connent. >> reporter: about to face the man he believes is responsible for his torture. he's rehearsed the moment time and time again. he knows exactly what he will say and how he will act. one look at former chadian president jason habre and the memories start coming back. electric shocks, the choking. and all the faces of people he was forted to bury during his four year confinement under habre's rule. >> translator: he's plunged an entire nation for eight long years into desperation and violent darkness. >> reporter: chad's truth commission says 40,000 people were killed and 200,000 tortured when habre was in rule in the 1980s. >> united states and franls supported hissan habre even as he turned his country into a police state. got training in the united states. >> he was overthrown in 1990 and fled the country. for 16 years victims of or the dhur and campaigners tried to bring him to court. while he lived quietly in senegal. his wife never suspected he would face justice. >> translator: we had an implivment e-explicitimplicit agreement. we feel betrayed. >> he's now being charged for crimes against humanity in the extraordinary african chambers poop court specifically created by the african union and senegal. hundreds of witnesses are expected to testify including clement aboyfouta an african judged by africans away from the hague's international criminal court. a possibility to set a precedent make universal justice accessible to all on this continent. i think what this trial shows more than anything else is that it's possible for victims and their supporters, with tenacity, with perseverance, with imagination, to actually get a dictator to court. >> reporter: the trial will not erase the horrors but something has changed and perhaps in the process clement abayfouta will find some peace. president obama sitting down with the new president of nigeria tomorrow. the fight against boko haram expected to top the agenda and it could leave the white house with a difficult

goodluck jonathan damaged ties between the two countries and trying to mend relations in this week's meeting. president buhari promising to defeat boko haram. the fighting has been ongoing now for six years. tonight we are going to take a social media fire storm that erupted after those school girls were kidnapped the hashtag bring back our girls went global now hashtag says the girls are still gone. roxana saberi takes a look at when online activism meets reality. >> this video of these girls taken by their captors won the world's attention with the hashtag, bring back our girls. it gave people a way to unite around an emotional cause from europe: >> bring back our girls. >> reporter: to the u.s. and beyond. >> this is all over the world as women are rising and asking for more in leadership. >> reporter: the campaign also amplified calms in nigeria. for then president goodluck jonathan to do more. it was nearly three weeks after the kidnappings that he first spoke about the trial. >> we are totally committed to ensuring that those girls are found wherever they are. and make sure that they join their families. >> reporter: since then some of the girls have escaped but most are still missing raising questions not only about the nigerian government's abilities but also about the power of digital activism. >> hashtag as long as it goes viral, as long as the world starts talking about it, that will solve the problem. the problem is that doesn't necessarily do that. >> more clamoring for attention. >> we're constantly being bombarded. the average attention span is 2.7 seconds. >> social media campaigns calling for a specific action tend to produce more tangible change. >> when there are major tsunamis or earthquakes red cross immediately trends constantly. what they do they are very smart. they say text help to a certain number and $10 will be added to your cell phone bill and people do that because they actually feel they're making a difference. there wasn't a specific call to action. okay? if i'm sitting in my apartment in new york city and i see the hashtag, bring back our girls and i tweet it, i'm not doing anything other than tweeting it. >> the mass kidnapping of the girls from the nigerian town of chibok isn't the first to gain attention only to see it fade away. >> he makes them mutilate people's faces. >> the documentary coni 2012, caused conee to be brought to justice. it has more than 1 million views on youtube. conee remains free. still some online activists say this can create followers active in the virtual world and the real world. helped bring the spotlight on deteriorating security in nigeria, to make muhammadu buhari new president. even as the world moves on they will not. >> we absolutely continue advocacy we shall continue stability as we watch the current administration take charge and take leave to rescue the girls. >> roxana saberi, al jazeera. yvonne inahosa, executive director of path finders be initiative. and kate brodock joins us live. ms. inahosa, it's been 15 months since the hashtag bring back our girls. the girls are still gone. >> it is absolutely devastating that 461 days later you and i are actually meeting under these circumstances. it's unfortunate. >> this meeting taking place in washington, d.c. between two presidents, are you confident anything is going to change or are we going to be talking about this a year from now? >> i'm absolutely confident. we all have heard it said, evil persists when good people do nothing. we've got these two incredible presidents who are in a position to actually do something about this devastating situation and i'm hopeful that collectively we can come one a solution. >> ms. brodock when the hashtag bring back our girls was launched, it was everywhere, the first lady michelle obama and david cameron signing on, the fact that the girls are still missing, is that an indication that the online community is too fickle or the case is too big? >> i think there are a couple of issues here. the first one as you stated in your latter point there is, this is first of all the situation on the ground in nigeria is very complicated, it's very violent it is very political, it is very social. there are a lot of factors that i don't think anyone could quite argue that tweeting, a tweet would solve. back to your first suggestion about the fickleness of users. it kind of depends on how you really look at the use of twitter. in terms of raising awareness it has done i think a very large and positive move forward for the situation media is covering it significantly more. but that difference between awareness and action is where there seems to have been a fairly large gap. i think there are some smaller efforts that have been continued, some would argue they have slowly found themselves into a more lonely situation but action is where i think there's a gap. >> in fact as i was preparing this segment i couldn't help but remember conee 2012, they were be upset of the african warlord conee who used children as slaves. that was 2012, this is now 2015. >> that comes back to my job as a marketer. you really have to have a marketing plan around tease things. the raising awareness portion if there isn't an effective mobilization or call to action, and some way to create the change about this problem that's coming to light you know that's really where you're going to get a lot of these failures. >> ms. inahosa, are you confidence that at least as far as the optics are concerned the new president meeting with the parents of the missing girls and yet i hear you saying you're optimistic. i think back to the fact that a year ago there was optimism then and now there is pessimism. there was that social media campaign, the president said they were going to do something and the girls are still missing. >> this is a little bit of a different situation. what we had with our outgoing president was ultimately at least what appeared to be a lack of political will, a lack of a prioritization, and essentially a failure to really put in the resources that were necessary. and i think in one interview he actually admitted that he underestimated boko haram. so what we have here with our new president is, someone who appears to really be prioritizing the return of these girls. like you said he's met with the families. he's actually met with president of countries who have supported this fight. obviously he's meeting with the u.s. president tomorrow. >> ms. inahosa the sad fact is there are reports that some of the girls are being used as suicide bombers by boko haram and others are married off and turned into sex slaves. on the eve of this meeting in washington is it too late? >> absolutely not. i speak as a plotting first. and there's no way that we can give up hope on these girls. i mean obviously we know that they may not come back in the exact state that they left. but ultimately i think it is our responsibility collectively to continue to keep, to remain hopeful for girls who may have given up hope. >> how do you convince them that society cared when they do come back? >> how do we convince the girls? >> yes. >> the great thing about our technology nowadays is that everything is almost recorded and i think that they can look and they can see the fact that people marched that we protested, that we demanded their return and hopefully that will bring some solace to them. >> yvonne i.nahosa with the bring back our girls campaign and bodock william thank you for being with us. >> anthony graves lawyer investigator, ex conwho spent more than a decade on death row before he was exonerated. now graves says he has find his calling. hdgesheidi zhou-castro reports. >> after death row. >> two execution dates but i'm here. anthony graves. >> anthony graves is now a free man exon rated and trying to find that no one else is wrongly convicted. >> i stand for a system that be affects all of us. >> in 1994 he was convicted of murdering six members of one family. >> what linked you to the crime? >> same thick that could have linked you to it, nothing absolutely nothing. >> except a psychodefendant who said graves participated in the murders. the former d.a. who prosecuted graves was disparked. the ex prosecutor says his disbarment was without merit. >> i was wrongfully convicted because a prosecutor decided to cut corners. and so because he cut corners i wasn't able to receive a full measure of justice. >> it took nearly two decades for state to declare not one piece of credible evidence linked graves to the crime. and he was finally able to hug his family after 18 years. >> that feeling of being released in 2010 was that i had work to do. that's what the feeling was. i had work to do. i had to let people know what -- what i had went through and what i'd learned from going through it you know? about our criminal justice system. >> and this is anthony graves graves our new board member. >> last month the mayor appointed graves graves to a board of directors. >> he reminds us that if the forensic science center doesn't provide quality accurate science, that these results are used in court and they could result in a tragedy for another innocent person. >> reporter: graves joins the recently established forensic science center, which replaces the scan daily ridden houston crime center, and last year a worker answer misconduct led to review of 185 cases. the new center is a fresh start a one of a kind in the country a nonprofit corporation set up by the city and answers to a board of citizens that now includes graves. >> being an independent agency acknowledge it is not persuaded by the prosecutor to produce certain results. they can produce the actual facts with no pressure because they're independent. big difference. >> graves says he's put away all bitterness for years he lost. >> i put that out my mind so i could live today you know. that -- those thoughts imprison a person and that's not what i want to be. i don't want to be in prison any more than the 18 and a half years i had to be there. >> i know you don't like to go back to those times but during those 18 years in your prison prison cell, do you planning that you would be out here? >> knowing i would be making a difference with my story. >> reporter: knowing that others may have been denied justice. >> especially those who claim they're innocent and are innocent the forensic science can help approve that. >> now, graves may be the ear that listens. heidi zhou-castro, al jazeera houston. >> 55-year-old stephen romeo was driving under the influence when he t boned this limousine. eight women inside going to a bachelorette
