attack giant poses a threat to free speech, r t contributor rachel mars and then has more on the story. complained to the european union's executive leadership about press. censorship is kind of like walking into mcdonalds and whining about obesity. but that's what german economy ministry, secretary of state fan jingled of the green party just did. he wrote to the european commission, demanding that the e u. tackle censorship on the american social media platform, twitter. because he doesn't like how it's new owner. eli must, is running it changing general terms and conditions, almost every hour, erotic justifications for extensive restrictions on links and the blocking of journalists accounts. not only threatened freedom of competition, but also pose a risk to democracy, freedom of opinion, information, and the press. the, you should use all the possibilities at his disposal to protect competition and freedom of speech on digital platforms. you kind of have to wonder how long rip van jiggled here has been a sleeve or what rock he's been hiding under. we're talking about the same european commission that keeps arbitrarily sanctioning journalism, appearing on any and all russian platforms. the end result is that citizens living inside the supposedly free and democratic europe, smack up against the use information, iron curtain whenever they want to see news. an analysis on these platforms of the you doesn't like which people elsewhere in the world all the way from vietnam to brazil have absolutely no problem accessing. jiggle never spoke up about press censorship and the affronted democracy there. but now he's demanding action against musk in twitter, and he's not the only one either. you commission vice president for values and transparency. yeah, that's an actual title veered to rover. tweeted recently, quote, news about arbitrary suspension of journalists on twitter is worrying. and she said there, there are quote red lines and sanctions soon. so she's threatened must, with sanctions for the kind of press censorship, that the e u. practices itself isn't a surprise of these journalists band briefly on twitter by musk were establishment journalists, and not any one in particular known for ruffling the establishments feathers. where are these european champions of press freedom, one must disclosed. recently, after taking over twitter, the extent to which twitter, knowingly greenlit accounts belonging to the pentagon, in order to run covert online influence campaigns to push washington's official narratives related to conflicts like those involving yemen, syria, iraq, and kuwait. or where were they, when it came to the western mainstream media's attention, that the most popular western social media outlets like twitter and facebook are chock full of former f, b, i and cia officials. and we're closely with the intelligence community on a regular basis. so how do we know that's the case? because after must forked over $44000000000.00 to buy twitter and got his hands on the company's internal documents. he started releasing them through select journalists on twitter, blowing the whistle on practices that pre dated is ownership. interesting that it's only now when mosque is revealing the truth about the kind of narrative gate keeping that went on involving western intelligence and western officials that these european leaders suddenly want the you to get must on a short leash. why isn't the german official jiggled asking the you to look into the new study just released by the university of maine's, concluding that the german language mainstream reporting on the ukraine conflict has been super biased. while ukraine of president lensky will mostly write to positively in the media, russia and president putin will almost exclusively write it negatively. diplomatic negotiations were presented as meaningful in less than half of the cases. only spiegel rated diplomatic measures is more sensible than the delivery of heavy weapons. while for all other media, it was the other way around. you free was portrayed positively in 64 percent of all the coverage and russia negatively and 88 percent of the german language media coverage. the study also found that a whopping 93 percent of german press reports attributed blame to russian president vladimir putin or to russia while just 4 percent of the news items attributed any responsibility to the west. ukrainian responsibility was evoked just 2 percent of the time and 74 percent of items promoted western and german military support to ukraine. quote, extremely positively. but apparently, all that has escaped the radar of this esteemed german official and his european colleagues who were very concerned about press freedom suddenly, but seemingly only one. it affects the ellison journalists that they like and who don't pose much of a threat to the big establishment narratives. while in israel designated prime minister benjamin netanyahu forms a new coalition, creating one of the most right when governments in israel's history a published clause in the deal hands that the annexation of the occupied west bank will be a priority. the prime minister will lead the formulation in advancement of policies within the framework of applying sovereignty in judea and samaria. while it was over it all ready that with people like mr. motors, for example, they had always rose far rides, religious design isn't polity was charge of the territories affairs in the new government. benjamin netanyahu was already planning to push for a stronger israeli control over parts of today and tomorrow we have biblical name for the occupied west bank. but this new information seems to take us even further . a number of very important steps were already agreed to strengthen his rose, hold on every a see of the occupied west bank, the biggest of 3 administrative divisions within the west bank that according to the 1993, all low courts was supposed to be handed to the palestinian jurisdiction, but instead was always under full israeli control. israel says that all measures needed for security reasons. but fears and concerns are that's a 12 hearth y scale, confrontation with the palestinians, and bring given more violence to the area. these ear has been the deadliest for the occupied west bank with at least 150 palestinians, and ceci one israeli killed since the beginning of these here, the highest death though, since 2006 and what's also very alarming, there appears to be little accountability new data shows that less than one percent of israeli soldiers accused of harming and killing palestinians in the west bank and gaza strip in the last 5 years have ever been charged. the figures for 2017 to 2021. demonstrate the military law enforcement systems, complete disregard for palestinian lives. its conduct precludes any possibility of deterrence and encourages the continued use of the deadly trigger happy policy that has claimed so many palestinian lives. it seems as though the military law enforcement sim's main function is white washing crimes, committed against palestinians by railey soldiers. so nathan, yahoo stepped towards what appears to be a plan for a complete annexation of they occupied west bank are unlikely to be welcomed by the palestinians, obviously, but to internationally they might be problems to just recently and alleged a new document was late showing the blocks intention to push for a complete re unification of all parts of the wide west bank of palestinian authority. neither will probably be un support. benjamin isn't. yeah. who's plans will it please? this is what it's a cobra report concluded the commission finds that there are reasonable grounds to conclude that the israeli occupation of palestinian territory is now unlawful under international law. owing to its permanence into actions, undertaken by israel tactics, parts of the land de facto and a jury in the years community seems to be worrying hundreds of robbers in the us for example. and our pledging to block the members of the coalition design is party from speaking at their synagogues and inside israel. many politicians have also expressed concerns and fears that nathan, yeah, was new governments the most far right in the country's history will buried along the way to to said solution to these rally policies in conflict. nathan, yahoo now says that he aim to swear in the new government in the coming week. well in the meantime, he's not even in power yet, and he's already causing big ways. my colleague, worries to shave, spoke earlier to read the newspaper commentator, amir oren, who's also a defense and government analysts. he says there's still a slight chance the new coalition will not be formed. this seems to be a political rhetoric for several reasons. nathan, you know, doesn't want friction with united states with any international body. and for instance, with saudi arabia, because now to appease the aims is to get the peace agreement to react and to the care and perhaps attack iran. both of these efforts would be impossible if there is friction with washington and others. so it seems to be only a rhetorical concession to he's to messianic partners without whom there will be no government. and while i, your report stated that he is about to swear in government, he's not yet successful. and there is still a slight chance that the government will not before. and you know, he's desperate to go back to power as prime minister because of his legal trouble. once he's straight from his position, he's actually defenseless. this is why he's willing to pay any price at all to his partner. and part of the price is the rhetorical concern regarding annexation. it is virtually impossible for israel to enact any territory without breaching the 2 peace agreements with egypt and jordan, in addition to the other justified criticism which it will absorb. so this is why i suppose the patient is right now saying yes, we will. and next, maybe even moscow will be an act if this is what they demand. but the actuality he is not going to do it because he's unable to, it will be very, very difficult to go on living under these railey system. and there will be resistance by many israelis lawful use it resistance. but nevertheless, many people here, millions will not equate. yes, i'm in the conduct of this government again. if the intense to translate to words into beats. ah, the chinese foreign minister, an u. s. secretary of state have discussed bilateral relations in a telephone conversation after which washington came in for some criticism. however, it must be pointed out that the u. s. count, engage in dialogue and containment of the same time. and either kind of talk corporation in front of china, but stubborn in the back symbol tenuously. it's not reasonable competition, but irrational oppression. it's not managing devised but intensifying conflicts. according to china's ministry of foreign affairs, the officials discussed a wide range of topics. the talks follow optimism expressed by the 2 countries after the g 20 summit. although beijing had. 6 still expressed some concerns. earlier we spoke to the president of the center for china in globalization, who highlighted beijing strain relationship with washington. basically. and the china, us need to set a new patch on the bilateral relations rather than you know, we still have, you know, those kind of suppressing and the containing and the coupling and bashing going on. well, i think the whole world is now much more into twice and you know, we are depending on each other. we have a, we have a global supply chain value chain. you know, cross these charges and chinese, you know, probably understand of the scope of supply chain. many, many issues needs to be addressed rather than keep constantly on, on really bashing china. because recently, i think the, the u. s. release another $32030.00 companies to be on the entity list. so father is over, a 1000 chinese company has been on us and it least watch for least. i think this is not very healthy. face is criticism over the u. s. military withdrawl from afghanistan. the u. s. state secretary has said the decision helped to free up resources for the ukraine conflict, which started just 6 months later when it comes to russia's war against ukraine. if we were still in afghanistan, ah, it would have, i think, made much more complicated. the support that we've been able to give and that others have been able to give you kind to resist and push back against the russian aggression. well, it certainly sounds like him. he's suggesting it could have been more than pure coincidence that the united states decided to ditch afghanistan right before it decided to shift its attention to ukraine. i mean, just the sheer haste with which the us left afghanistan and the chaos that was allowed to spread our reason enough for a lot of people to wonder why was that the case? i mean, we saw civilians clinging to an airplane falling to their deaths. suicide bombers and the taliban got their hands on a lot of us equipment. so naturally it's had a lot of people raising questions about whether or not this was all part of some sort of bigger plan that washington had. isn't it suspicious that we were just told that we had to leave the afghan war very sloppily? by the way, we announced that on august 31st 2021. and then the very next day on september 1st, america said that they were due. we were joining an effort we were locking on the e u to joint effort to help you crane join nato. after all, washington spent over $2.00 trillion dollars on this over 20 year long military operation that it had in afghanistan. and if u. s. was looking at another potentially multi trillion dollar conflict. i think it goes without saying that that would have been very difficult to sustain. is it possible that that washington knew what was coming in ukraine and was essentially getting, getting ready for it? well, there are actually a lot of indications that indeed they may have because before in august of 2021 before the afghanistan withdrawal, the united states actually resurrected a long range artillery command center in germany that was last used during the cold war. and this was long before there was any talk of open hostilities between ukraine and russia. or we can actually look at the american lend lease act of 820221 of the main pieces of legislation that is facilitating the sort of blank check that key of has for western weapons. it was introduced in january over a month before russia launched its special military operation, actually. and we can even look on top of all that. what a number of western officials have said about the minsk ceasefire agreements. the 2014 minsk agreement was an attempt to give you a crane time. you craig, use this time to become strong as you can see today, the ukraine of 20142015 is not the ukraine of to day. i needed the minsk agreements to gain at least full and half used to build the ukrainian forces to build the ukrainian economy, to train ukrainian forces alongside nato, to create the best on forces in eastern europe, according to nato standards. now, people who are skeptical might write off all that a circumstantial evidence on its own, but that's not all. we should also take into account what us politicians have openly said about the united states foreign policy attitudes towards russia. moreover, is one witness put a during our impeachment inquiry, the united states age ukraine and her people so that we can fight rush over there and we don't have to fight russia here. now unfortunately, it looks like today we're seeing exactly that ukrainians, fighting and dying to accomplish the united states foreign policy objectives. and unfortunately, it looks like he has learned nothing from the neglect with which u. s. forces treated their former allies in afghanistan as the smoke of war cleared . more than 15 journalists and media workers have been killed over the past 8 years, covering the conflict in the don bass region. that's according to the committee to protect your analyst. we take a closer look at how many problems faced by those who report from the front lines a new documentary

african continent, a state under the rule of the belgian monarch was declared. since the beginning, the congo free state was total may him for the local population and functioned as a universal concentration camp. the majority of the population, including women and children, were forced to work on the rubber plantations. those who failed to fulfill their quota were beaten and mutilated. to keep the congolese people under control, the king set up the so called for spook leak, which were punitive detachments that cast terror on the captured country and its inhabitants. fearing that their subordinates would simply waste bullets hunting for wild animals, the officers demanded that the soldiers gave an answer for every bullet used. and as proof presented a chop hand of an african. it was not uncommon when trying to justify the use of the ammunition, the colonist amputated the hands of not only those who were dead, but also of those who were kept alive. the atrocious exploitation of the congo turned into a real genocide in only 20 years. the policy of the belgians led to the death of nearly 10000000 people alongside the holocaust. that genocide of the congo population is considered to be one of the grimmest pages in the history of mankind . to the home on a good fit den by day to day loving bee larvae keep up with anybody nor mann's office, i will shed each do not l.
