Im sara kelly welcome to the Program Thanks for joining us a new turn of events in zimbabwe a newspaper has published photos of president Robert Mugabe holding talks with the military and a delegation from south africa the president of that country jacob zuma says that the political situation will quote become very clear shortly so is a solution in sight we will cross to the capital harare in just a moment first this report. Tanks are still in key positions on the streets of zimbabwes capital harare a day after the military seize control of the country the streets a bustling again after many businesses shut their doors on wednesday. People. Jobs. In the quiet way in a good way. Everything is normal it was normal the shops are open people are back to work everyone that is except zimbabwes ninety three year old ailing president Robert Mugabe he hasnt been seen since the military takeover but he said to be under house arrest and saif rumors are flying about whether his wife grace is with him or whether she managed to flee the country before the military action graces ambitions to succeed a husband are said to be behind the current turmoil last week. Vice president the army potentially saw this is paving the way for grace to take over the militarys actions dari have put a stop to her hopes for some zimbabweans that is welcome news. The division bridges above is very good because we were looking for it for news about the biggest about the sex Vice President and mr and is tipped to head a Transitional Government by the military an option the African Union sent it wouldnt support. It if indeed you know you know if we in the African Union are against any violent government overthrow. Issued a statement saying the army should retreat and return to constitutional order. Would support the legitimate zimbabwean government and in no case of good will we accept a forceful seizure of power for. Him that power belongs to he still and i can question. And lets get more now with pastor evan marvie re his social Media Campaign hash tag this flag to trigger last year the largest antigovernment protests in a decade thanks so much for being with us this evening and we just want to get your take on what is going on in your country what do you make of it all. Well this is a its such an unprecedented time for the barbarians right now we the feeling of change is palpable as i speak the entire country is sitting on the edge but this isnt of our nation in support of change and would really want to see a zimbabwean that goes in a different direction from the direction that weve been going for the last thirty seven years some of the things that we definitely want to see is our constitution being respected as we go forward we want to see. A new transitional inclusive government coming into place so that it can safely carry us to the next election or to whatever is agreed to by this inclusive Transitional Government that includes everybody opposition people from Civic Society citizens and so forth so that we really start to build our nation in a different way Going Forward and we now have the photo evidence that appears to show that there are talks underway to see mugabe the military delegates there from south africa you have urged them bobbins to be part of what you call this transition process do you think that that will come to fruition do you think that would mugabe will indeed step down and what would you like to see as part of the transition process as you describe it. Well i mean i certainly ones true want to see a new government coming into play i certainly want to see change going ahead. But it has to be the kind of change that speaks to our future and not to our past. And again you know as citizens of the babbler we have had to really learn how to be citizens how to speak up how to stand up because what they did seven years weve been intimidated would be the frayed in the end from the process of building our nation so you know we really really want to be part of it and i think that it may be possible you know i think this is the Biggest Movement towards change in terms of the thing that happened right now is the biggest thing that weve actually ever seen in the bombing weve never seen. You know government ministers government ministers arrested weve never seen our president being sat down for a negotiation by his own people its a first in many many many ways in the pap and open so we have a lot of hope that this may be a very very key outcome for Going Forward i hear such a hopeful message from you and i can definitely see that they think you are looking toward the future hoping for change but the reality is is that you know we do not know what will come next are you also a little nervous. Absolutely i mean like i said on the dispenses killing us all literally we are all sitting on the tire country social media is exploding right now because you know the speculation and the fake news unconfirmed reports. So you can tell the reason why people are like that is because of the expectation of a positive result. Well we want to thank you very much for telling us about your hopes for the future of pastor evan my career as we mentioned your social Media Campaign this flag triggered last year the largest antigovernment protests in a decade and it seems as if change might be coming for your country zimbabwe we thank you for talking with us this evening. Thank you very much. And as events over the past few days have unfolded in zimbabwe people have of course been searching for reliable information many turning to social media the problem though is that fake information is being spread online our social media editor jared reed is joining us here in the story in the studio rather to tell us a little bit more about that story why is it so hard to find reliable information about whats going on well i think what we need is a bit of a look at the media landscape in zimbabwe sir in regards to this military intervention that weve seen over the past few days state media under reporting whats going on and so then were left with independent journalists who often work on the heavy restrictions and threats to foreign media so youre left with a situation where a lot of misinformation can spread we know that in zimbabwe what is the most popular way to spread information its a mess and just and in fact our colleagues at africa do a lot of work with whats up in the region the u. N. Maybe and breaking news journalists we often rely on twitter to get our information and so when the events were unfolding this week in zimbabwe unfortunately foreign media turned to the wrong twitter accounts to to work out what was going on so jared what happened im going to show you an example of what caught a lot of us out its this twitter account that you can see on your screen should be coming up shortly a lot of media cited this as the official account of zimbabwes ruling posse during the military intervention it was tweeting a lot including claims like this that were retreated around five thousand times since having a lot of problems with this a readout one of the tweets that it had out here we go we can see it it was very traded more than five thousand times it says last not the first family was detained and this site both for the constitution and the site. See all of the nice in this was necessary and theyre talking about getting a bet is in bob way now this account that you can see was cited by Media Outlets but hes the thing it wasnt the official account a little bit of digging would have revealed that its a parody account is something quite bizarre it tweeted from two thousand and fourteen hipsters should be lined up in force to sing the Zimbabwean National anthem and then shot one by one sarah this is apparently in zimbabwe a very well known parody account so this just goes to show you the lessons that foreign media can learn to go to the right souls for the right information how embarrassing that you know that source was thought to actually be credible it just shows the challenge in verifying information jared how does one get reliable information well thats the big question its difficult but its not impossible we have experts in Africa Department and theyve been telling us today that in zimbabwe in recent years a number of independent Media Outlets and journalists have been springing up and their goal is to deliver reliable information as quickly as possible and one of those journalists is a man named nodule move hes a journalist of the two sixty three chat website heres some advice from him for those following the news in zimbabwe please be very cautious of following and interacting with social media accounts that were created recently please verify beforehand cerro on our website d w dot com today we have a really great article by a journalist solo an echo it basically is an explainer of the media landscape in zimbabwe and explains to us in our readers how they best can get the news from reliable sources in the country fascinating stuff terry agreed with the very latest from our social media task and how to get reliable information you know on breaking news things that are developing if i much appreciate it. Well we turn now to europe where it is a decisive moment in german politics chancellor Angela Merkel has warned that serious differences remain between the parties hoping to form germanys next government but she also says that she is confident that a deal will emerge today is the final day of talks and it is thought that the parties will negotiate late into the night the potential government has been dubbed it the Jamaica Coalition because the partys colors match those of the jamaican flag. Four weeks of negotiations have seen the chances for a socalled Jamaica Coalition hover at fifty fifty one thing is clear theres still no love lost between the very parties who say they want to govern under chancellor on the america. When we have to put ourselves in the shoes of the other side and ask what is important to them. On valentino you can achieve that kind and if we do we will also achieve a positive result at the end of these negotiations and when stephen negotiators come and go those who face the microphones are still busy placing blame and stressing their own limits notably when it comes to the right of all refugees to have their families join them in germany. I need to say one thing is clear we will insist on the right of refugees with subsidiary protection to be reunited with their families in germany thats an issue of trust for us here. When i look up but other parties already fear a public backlash if thousands of migrants are allowed to bring their families to germany. Because. We cant assign things here that could fan on extremism in germany. That is why we are available for a fact oriented solution rooted in humanitarian reasoning German Foreign policy appears to have become the latest casualty in the struggle to strike a deal between the four parties. Weve taken a step back and now that the foreign deployment of German Forces became an issue again all Foreign Policy issues are back on hold. While the exploratory talks for a Government Coalition could be extended public patience with unlimited efforts to forge a coalition is running thin. Talk a little bit more about those efforts Charlotte Potts is standing outside now at the site of those talks so charlotte fair to say this is a make or break round and whats the latest there. Well its definitely a make or break day its been eight weeks since the german elections for weeks and see these negotiations started and right behind me you just mentioned the party negotiators of the four parties are meeting at this hour and hoping to present some kind of compromise at the end of the night or say look we have tried for four weeks now this is not working out and of course these are just exploratory talks its a first step then Coalition Talks will follow where they will have to find policy proposals for the next four years so it will take some time until germany has a new government maybe until christmas or even after Christmas Charlotte what is the general mood what we are talking about you know the Major Players in these negotiations how are they talking about each other how are they talking about the issues how are they talking to the public and what does it say about when we could get the result here. Well the mood hasnt been great especially between the smaller parties that are negotiating here between the greens the business friendly f. T. P. And the bavarian conservatives the c. S. U. Weve heard some quite some harsh statements from them within those four weeks of negotiations they could be much more excited about this this is the first time this coalition would be possible on a National Level between those four parties and its really been quite some tough statements so well have to see if they can overcome that this might be also just a strategy outside for their party base to appear that they are being ideologically stable on what theyve promised during the elections and within weve been hearing that the talks are much more respectful towards each other and that there has been already a preliminary paper. To the press tonight could could tell us that negotiations are actually coming to a compromise tonight ok so thats one Case Scenario the scenario where we do indeed get a compromise well talk about the other case in aereo if these talks fail what does that mean for angle americal and her party. Well negotiators have been saying that if these talks fail that would be a real catastrophe it would mean that there could be called snap elections soon new elections and germany which has never been done before when Coalition Talks failed if called for new elections and it would be a disaster for chancellor Angela Merkel because she is a very skilled negotiator and she is leading those talks you know as as the chancellor in place at the moment so if these talks fail it would be also her failure and it would weaken her in the months to come and in a possible new election where she might not then pose as a candidate for chancellor for her conservative party that would be a major change indeed charlotte pots with the very latest on these german Coalition Talks right outside of where those negotiations are taking place thank you and we cross now to an expert on the art of negotiation freighter graham is joining us to give us some idea about the possible strategies in these ongoing Coalition Talks thanks so much for joining us this evening we know its getting down to the wire with a long night of talks ahead and each party appears to be determined to get their way is this just part of the tactic of negotiation though. Well goals into. The election will carry us if were coming to an end of so call so you can see. There are talks but once now two heads to let go the mexican targets and chose the next ability in the night to have warrants but the streets with them are but im sure that many of those points are already clarified i want to talk a little bit about the mood and how people have been very acting to what is going on because the negotiations they can obviously get pretty tense we heard from a member of the green party a short while ago the state premier of. And a member of the greens as we mentioned had this to say i want to listen and then get your take. On one from jaimes you negotiate when you negotiate and refrain from attacking the other parties involved you just dont do that otherwise i get the feeling that they dont want to see any constructive or successful ive come and if thats the case they should just say so. You can also feel the frustration out there doesnt seem to be a good indicator of whats happening behind the scenes should we take that at face value there whats your take i think that. Was mostly angry about the behavior of some represent a party and from a negotiation point its not of i should talk about negotiation published in the public better to talk to them behind closed doors yeah and there are four parties actually involved in these talks as Angela Merkel describes they have very very different positions as youre highlighting their different approaches as well how do you find Common Ground and a way to Work Together would you say. Well first of all parties have to comics to come in a role which is the building of the next government of government and the next term is step is to identify the field of accordance and they have to be clear that each has a big responsibility and i really meant to always remember its what do you make of her strategy the way that she remembers that the way the to approach is negotiations because i mean she is a skilled negotiator she is then and not only on the domestic level shes at it internationally weve seen her do it many times in the e. U. What do you think she is doing behind closed doors right now well to be honest that many often have best results she got very very early in the morning and i read that you said she has the ability of her talent and stored sleep instead of what and one of her outstanding abilities is to be even an emotional one of us are there and she keeps come and cheap suspect teacher focus and im sure she will not let anybody out of the negotiation rule if there is no positive result im convinced the greens are very interested in finding a common solution then he will not be the one to prevent a result but a single out of the biggest risk is to say yes you they appeal more on an emotional level than a racial one in the series you will in my opinion sir trying to make precedents public statements and forget that the preelection is all at the end each party has the power to prevent the next politician in the response of the lot to do it but we thank you very much for giving us a little bit of a window into what is happening tonight figure gum and expert in a go skating. So to some other news now more than a dozen people have been killed by a suicide bomber at a political rally in the Afghan Capital kabul the socalled Islamic State has claimed responsibility it is the latest in a wave of attacks in afghanistan that have killed and wounded thousands this year alone Cambodias Supreme Court has granted a government request to to dissolve the countrys Main Opposition Party after it was accused of conspiring to seize power critics have said that the decision is a tactic to strengthen Prime Minister hun sens position ahead of elections next. An anonymous buyer has spent a record some on a work by the renaissance painter they are not adventure it is an astounding price for a painting once thought to be by one of his students previously the work had changed hands for just a few thousand dollars but at christies in new york it was quite a different story. Ladies and gentlemen we moved to a little bit chilly the suburbs of mourning the masterpiece probably not of course to save your previous in the clutches of three kings of england so you view of the world at courtrai to jesus christ one of fewer than twenty paintings known to exist by the nacelles must a ninety minute looking for ninety five in house christies said the presale estimates at one hundred Million Dollars but that was soon exceeded ninety four im going to go one third out of it well i wouldnt have it one hundred ten million go get me one twenty the building via phone just getting going on ninety has been you heard at your place your place with friends who are in a fifth place one hundred ninety billion otto one hundred ninety million give me two hundred one night is two hundred million its been about two hundred million two hundred million just how high could you go at two hundred eighty Million Dollars so we will go on. But if you dont. I dont like the photograph quite the next milestone three hundred but you give it to ninety six. I thought so the old three hundred million. And even though its one of the top. Three hundred seventy million back to france was clutch at three hundred and seventy Million Dollars instead of a lot for him it is. Not a service of what is selling here i christies four hundred Million Dollars is the bit the piece is sold. With an extra fifty Million Commission for christies the total price tag four hundred fifty Million Dollars the buyer has so far remained anonymous so we dont know if the public will ever get a chance to see the work again. And for more on this absolutely astounding sale we are joined now by martin kemp he is a professor in the history of art at Oxford University and a leading Leonardo Da Vinci expert thanks so much for joining us. Pleasure now you have actually seen this painting up close what would you say is so special about it and is it really worth the four hundred fifty Million Dollars that it fetched at auction. I would separate out the two things its worth what someone has vowed to pay for it which is different from the question as to whether its a great painting on art it is very extraordinary the lion are those have a special presence ive seen mona lisa twice out of her throne and they have a kind of living presence which is very uncanny very extraordinary its difficult for artists to do that rembrandt can do. Your can do that at his best but they do have that extraordinary presence and lennart also in addition to that very strange psychological effect incorporates enormous amounts of knowledge into his works of art in a way in which the followers didnt but he understands arctic sea understands anatomy he has an interest in what i call the science and not just whether its making or an effective picture so is that what you were then looking at when when you were basically called in to verify that this painting was genuine i mean what was it specifically about this painting that allowed you to roll out that it wasnt a genuine and that it wasnt painted by one of his students i should say what im doing what i do is i research who works whether their own privately or in public without any favor while my own the other so im not really setting out to authenticate things but obviously the more you find out about painting and the more it seems consistent with really low knowledge the more it supports the the attribution i first saw it in the National Gallery in london in the nick penney director said we got something which i think youd like to see so i went to see and sorest in the Conservation Studio and immediately theres a sense of wow this is. No dont read it you didnt do a lot of research. Really fascinating stuff and martin kemp we very much appreciate you joining us to tell us a little bit more about this painting your impressions of it as an expert as we mentioned to our viewers you are a professor in the history of art at Oxford University and a leading Leonardo Da Vinci expert we appreciate it researchers say that they have discovered a genetic mutation in some members of the Amish Community in the United States that prolongs human life by about ten years according to a study that carriers are also less susceptible to diseases like diabetes and have Better Metabolic Health the findings could help combat age related disorders researchers are currently testing an experimental drug that looks to recreate these benefits the amish mainly live in the american midwest and are known for shunning most forms of modern technology.

But its time now for some Business News here is joining us here on the set and we are talking about if you are an employee of this company you have to be nervous today thats right and for a very good reason sara because we just saw an important announcement one of germanys best known tommies as you know as humans is a saying that its going to cut almost seven thousand jobs worldwide and its power gas and drives divisions which have seen a sharp drop in demand half of those jobs will be here in germany where the Company Makes gas turbines for power plants so lets take a look at exactly why this is no demand for gas turbines has actually collapsed as Power Companies switch to Renewable Energy siemens forecasts Global Demand for only one hundred new turbines next year thats for all manufacturers combined you know siemens alone right now has the capacity to make one hundred and thirty turbines so thats of course more far more than the market needs capacity among all the worlds turbine makers together is four hundred units. A year so you can imagine that this is why is he needs to rethink its strategy however is immense turbine subsidiary is one of the biggest in the company before demand dropped unexpectedly turbines made up twenty percent of humans profits the cutbacks of course will have a major impact on the companys operations here in germany plants in two german cities and gurlitz will be shut down costing the local economies nearly one thousand jobs workers were protesting the cuts before they were officially announced Union Members are heavily criticizing management they dont see why they should lose their jobs when dizzy from glamour it as a whole is still making billions of euros in profits it is a big story in journalism allowing our financial correspondent at the Frankfurt Stock Exchange where he is listed as a look at where the company could be going from here well first of all they would have to get at these plans through they of course face stiff opposition from the unions workers have already said that they would carve out a quote a path of creative resistance to the companys plans but you have to think of this restructure as part of a larger strategy set out by chief executive joe kayser to make the company more futureproof are at least in his perspective one thats realigned more towards automation electrification and digitization and one that operates with several small independent new and its operating under the banner of the Siemens Holding company as a sprawling conglomerate seem to be going out of fashion. There was an album allowin in frankfurt now its not the only story in the Energy Sector today twenty countries and two u. S.

And other gridlock more than a Million People have fled from south sudan to uganda the German Aid Organization vent provides Development Help in the form of Sustainable Farming and Vocational Training for many of the refugees in the northern part of the country but resources from the German Government might soon go elsewhere as berlin is setting new priorities. Animals have long help farmers boost the productivity of their land the German Aid Organization the home health or world hunger aid has distributed hundreds of oxen to farmer groups in northwest uganda. With the oxen plowing is much easier if i can plough an acre in three hours with a hoe it takes. Me. The locals are farming with the help of refugees here ya know thats the projects and he says that the refugees fleeing the war in south sudan will be staying for years. It is very important if we respond in emergency that we ought to look ahead in the midterm and Long Development for us it is important here in the in the rule areas to work with the refugees and the ugandans together to improve their knowledge in farming that theyre able to produce food for themselves.

But youngest still has millions to help people to help themselves a group is overseeing ninety communities with thirty families each thanks here are few and far between so each Farming Community has its own savings and Loan Association yonder says it strengthens social bonds and encourages entrepreneurship and thats all for business or for money as it were turning to a story now here about an Asylum Seeker here in germany because twelve years ago this is silent seeker from sierra leone burned to death in a police cell in the eastern german city of death now for years the police on duty that night and their lawyers claimed the Asylum Seeker set himself on fire now new evidence has come to light suggesting this was not the case. This is a major turning point in the case of henri giallo in two thousand and five the thirty six year old from sierra leone burned to death in this cell experts now say it probably wasnt suicide giallo was likely sprayed with a flammable substance and set alight according to documents seen by german broadcaster a r a d. S highest of gun so easy to completely disprove the prosecutions previous theory we need to start over and evaluate everything under the assumption that early giallo had no way of setting himself on fire. That would mean there was a third party to the suits and locked as found longstanding investigators in desk were removed from the case in the summer despite everything the new prosecutors in hala say theres no evidence of murder and want to close the case in the indian woman its incomprehensible that three months after taking over the investigation from the prosecutors the prosecutors from haga have come to a conclusion contrary to the new evidence. There seems to be no desire to investigate further Germanys Left Party are calling for a special prosecutor to take up the probe in order to finally find out how worried giallo died in public custody twelve years ago. And sports news russias hopes of making februarys Winter Olympics still hang in the balance this after the World Antidoping Agency decided not to lift its suspension of the International Olympic committee will make the ultimate decision either banning russia outright or allowing some athletes to compete under a neutral flag but that is that too could cause some problems here is more. This is sold and the World Antidoping Agencys latest meeting the verdict it doesnt look good for russia the countrys antidoping body has met our water requirements to have its two years suspension lifted and it could cost them a spot at the winter games the greed of compliance for the russian on to Dorothy Agency has been fulfilled in many ways but there are still two issues which remain unfulfilled the main reason the refusal to publicly accept allegations of state sponsored doping. Was that the with what is the needs onset oping its the practice of doping drugs with state money talks that are given to athletes that cannot have been the case. Thats not our access to the urine samples from suspected cheats is the second Sticking Point our moscow reporter doc savage has the latest on the sample controversy. The russian unto doping agency isnt allowing sealed from russian efforts to be tested a test could prove that even more affluence to perform and hansen drugs there we know of so far russian president Vladimir Putin is under pressure but the countrys sports minister has already come out calling the latest decision political in character the Investigative Reporter hired zack pollard says ultimately russia may not be able to compete under its own flag. If that will happen then it has been said already by the russian government and the russians it will not go to the olympics it will be a boycott that will be a dramatic development. The International Olympic committee will have the final say in december. I mean time and soccer news peru have grabbed the thirty second time the final spot in the world cup and russia next year the south american side defeated new zealand to nail in their playoff second leg after the first game ended scoreless thousands of fans took to the streets of the capital lima to celebrate the victory the first time that the room have come five whole world cup in thirty six years.

Well now over the last two weeks we have been reporting from the United Nations Climate Change conference in the german city of bonn the big topic on the agenda is reducing Carbon Dioxide emissions worldwide in a bid to curb the rise of Global Temperatures in line with targets one of the effects of rising temperatures as melting sea ice melting ice each ice sheets and that in turn means rising ocean levels one of the most endangered areas is near hawaii in the Pacific Ocean it is the island nation of carob os people there have lived with the sea for centuries now theyre fighting at the waves are destroying their homes and if nothing changes evacuation will be the only way out.

Fiji of course has its own climate problems but the volcanic Island Towers above sea level and theres plenty of space cure about his former president wanted to make a point if the rest of the world continues to do nothing will help ourselves. Because it migration with dignity but for now its an invasion. Seawalls in ruins its not clear to what extent Global Warming is changing our planet but the water is coming its rising. And kiribati is bang in the middle of it all. The ocean has destroyed all but one of our young villages flooding salinisation the population resistance is pointless. To them its just fun these kids cant understand that the Freshwater Lagoon is gone the milk fish as well that the palm trees are losing fruit. And is it all told the. Tonight now used to be bananas here and papayas that with lots of houses and a shop. The whole place was full of people and freight and plants you know nothing. Freshwater in the south of the atoll marias daughter in law helps her wash up a mother of eleven maria had everything under control but she fears no one is a match for the rising floods. Well i dont know when i didnt like it when i got a lot when i look at. The item disappointing and the plan its a dying one i believe theres no future for us here soon everything will be underwater it was simply become part of the same. Well now for a bit of culture news and the swiss theatre director mueller rao is one of the most controversial directors around today he mixes real events real people with actors and that the actrix of the stage well now he has made a film about one of his projects it is called the congo tribunal and Robin Merrill from our culture desk as always is here to tell us more so robyn this sounds like a really interesting mix here so its a film and a piece of theater as well how does that yeah its good of both i mean the theater obviously is very much political to the congo true tribunals is about the civil war in congo which is claimed so many millions of lives rather set up on stage a course of lol a fictitious course of law i should say but with actual protagonists from the conflict including victims including eyewitnesses but also i want to is a bit like a truth and Reconciliation Commission but also with acts as its conducted like a real trial but of course there are no prosecutions because not a real course of law and now before he did this he went to the congo with a camera team to research the project and what he found that is quite harrowing. Mino right now in the province of south kivu where the congo tribe you know project conducted intensive inquiry. This is the first. Place this is. You know the government any. Government place. Ok. The swiss theater director was clearly shocked by what he saw and heard and i mean. What. Can i say. But the first session of the congo tribe you know taking place within the country managed the impossible it brought together former rebels victims and politicians the more who even. If you voted in that field. And is even must. Do is a few make us up our lives that are in it that are like a lodge with me. At the fourteen hour burning hearings economists social scientists and n. G. O. S examined the conflicts broader origins. Its roots in colonialism and in the advanced worlds hung up for the congos rich mineral resources. Instead of that film has already been shown in the congo and since that time two politicians stepped down from that post so its obviously having an impact and seeing that i mean its perhaps not surprising that he had a career as a journalist as well able to press but this isnt it hes very much still got the Investigative Reporter in him it seems i mean his Theatre Company which is actually called the International Institute of political murder which is a strange title hes been fighting injustices for years through cultural projects heres one this is a thing called hate radio from twenty eleven and its about the hate propaganda that was broadcast on a random Radio Station and in reality which helped trigger the the random genocide of nine hundred ninety four this is five easy pieces which has was in belgium and has children telling the story of the notorious belgian child murder amount to true very controversial of course this is latest project in a theater in berlin its called General Assembly sometimes of the storming of the rice tar here they are outside rice stuck in the things that they saw the world palm in the modern palm under sixty delicates and then part of the whole project was to storm the rice i guess you can see theyre not exactly storming it this sort of job you can gently towards it but this is. And his company is really very.
