But im Richelle Carey this is the news hour from doha coming up in the next sixty minutes a day in court for cattle on and dependence leaders but not everyone turned up. For the First Time Since the latest our hands are crisis began me and mars later visits Rakhine State. The letter that changed palestine for ever mass protests are quite hundred years since the Balfour Declaration and im peter stone us with the latest sports news including. If you. Should. Stop trying to steal. The u. S. The masters beat the l. A. Dodgers to win baseballs biggest prize for the first time ever. So we begin in madrid where spanish prosecutors have asked the high court to jail eight depose cataloged ministers while theyre being investigated for sedition fourteen members of the sacked cabmen have been summoned for questioning over last weeks declaration of independence but the regions ousted president carlos pushed him on did not appear across the road this. Catalonia is to solve parliament was greeted by cheering as she emerged from a separate hearing and the Supreme Court karma tellus one at six other m. P. s being investigated theyre both courts are in madrid but in a show of defiance Pro Independence support us rallied outside the Regional Parliament building of course that is in barcelona so were covering the story from both cities and. Capital barcelona but first were going to meet outside the courts in madrid and how to explain theres multiple things happening at different locations different courts so to tell us whats happening there in madrid. Well at the moment the hearing in the at the National Court is still going on now this is a hearing of the members of the now deposed. Government from what we understand the prosecution has the judge. For preventive detention of the nine people who are appearing here not all of the cabinet has come to discord. The leader of deposed president and four other ministers in brussels they are now or they represent now what they called the exiled. Government said he wouldnt come because he wanted a fair and he also was a trial and he also was fearing for his safety now inside this court we most of the of the people the reserved their right and not just speak however one of them did speak to. That lasted about forty five minutes and during that time he sort of hinted as well that. And the other cabinet members who are now in brussels have basically put the people who are peering here in danger and he said that this prevention detention if it would happen replanted detention if its really. Going to happen is basically a consequence of the act of karlas. Now across the street as you know there was another hearing going on that was a disagreement court that was for the speaker of parliament and five other members of the Parliament Board that is finished has been remanded to november ninth the defense arguing there that they did not have enough time to prepare its defense ok with a there in madrid hoda thank you very much now lets go to the at the center of all this which of course is barcelona yeah cattle on capital and thats where our Andrew Symonds what is happening there. Well weve seen quite a large demonstration here in this square which is of the seat of government a government building the palace that is not occupied by either side in this crisis right now its a state of well almost like a vacuum here in the center of barcelona but those protests very outspoken in support of the ministers facing the spanish Justice System right now and also in support of the sox president and his team with me right now is a former member of that team and he is the joy p. K. Who is the former officer who was in charge of International Communications for the government now youve been putting the message out all the way through this crisis now youre without a job and youre looking at a situation where ministers former ministers could go to jail. Without up a drop but i have of course and because of that area they many in catalonia that being the people of catalonia to be heard and to have a chance to bow down to implement the results of the referendum of october the first and this is where you would go to the fence about the ministers its a very unfair. Political trial and no one could sustain a committed. Rebellion they were fulfilling a mandate from the women and no people in government should be trialed to fulfill our democratic mandate what do you say to the suggestion that push them all should be here in barcelona rather than in belgium right now here to actually see this through on the ground rather than go if it into exile. But him put him on is in belgium because hes there where hes more free to work and to sustain our course. There has been. A requirement of mission of tasks in the cattle and government is there in which he could be more useful to our cause. You have to realize that in their rankings of independence spain is ranking. After tanzania. And this is from there were going to make for them when you seen. This Spanish Police vehicles going around barcelona. Honking the union these demonstrations and waving in spanish flags in the unities demonstrations and when you seen that the. Data needed. That the prosecutor indeed too late hes documented persecuting. Like i. E. That the fall will be will be harsher this means that its very difficult now to grant a fair trial in spain thats why the president is in belgium but what do you say to suggestions that the support for session isnt quite what it used to be because of the way the ministers have reacted to all of this in that they havent come out with all guns blazing they havent mobilized their supporters theres not been a lot of real action on the streets in terms of protests weve seen the square behind you full a few hours ago but that was highly organized and orchestrated the might be a demonstration later on but there is a mood of confusion would you not agree and no i completely reject because these are from asian. What we were not prepared to face east because violence in which the Spanish Government has confronted the situation these were not prepared to see we are we to peacefully demonstrate as we have shown to the wall is six years in a row with one point five two Million People in the streets every year in every demonstration but they were the first. All the wall could see the mages of the Spanish Military Police beating. Peaceful boulders at the polling stations and beating them. We have seen peaceful leaders from the civic associations. Jail now accused of rioting when the only thing they did was to promoting a peaceful demonstration thats why. I would change it. Because we dont want to confront the people to buy a lot of this money just a finally briefly if you would please were going out of time how do you see this playing out when the leaders of the procession just a government thats been sacked facing justice could be in jail and may not be able to even stand in the elections on december the twenty first how will this play out do you really think you can still succeed. Of course of course we will no one has been sacked the only thing that has happened is that the president has been forbidden to his office but he is the president he remains a president. What despite his government has done is against constitution is against this. So mobilization will continue. This time all democrats in catalonia and all around will continue to. I would write. Thank you very much indeed for your thoughts back to you richelle in the studio all right and live in barcelona thank you man mars later on she has visited Rakhine State for the First Time Since a military crackdown forced more than six hundred thousand of our henchmen minorities to flee their homes shes been facing International Criticism for failing to stop the army from described as ethnic cleansing. Reports. This is a first time in Rakhine State military offensive began in august accompanied by government officials and prominence Business Leaders she visited several villages and spoke to people there including both muslims and buddhists. All of us want to live in peace she reportedly said adding that everyone will have to try hard to achieve that analysts say thats a wider message the myanma leader is trying to put across i think its all designed to give the appearance of some kind of stability and a normalcy that simply doesnt exist there and again i think this is her. Dissolve tree attempt at spin to convince the world that everything so kind and that shes in charge of the situation. These are the scenes that would have greeted the myanmar. House after house destroyed by five entire villages once home to a hinge of families deserted the government has refuted allegations that its troops are committing ethnic cleansing is defend the military operation as a legitimate counter offensive against a group of fighters it calls a terrorist organization the spokesman for the Rakhine State government told al jazeera that sense that the two shows that the region is now stable but were just not spoken to say they dont believe have changed things on the ground or that more than six hundred thousand people have crossed into bangladesh since august and the exodus hasnt stopped. At least two thousand i had to fling man maher are stranded in fields near a Bangladeshi Border crossing are being held there by Bangladeshi Border guards the un is calling on the government to move them to refugee camps the reports. Pasi is only a few days old his mother mamita gave birth to him in traumatic circumstances while escaping me with her two year old daughter she delivered him in the open air with only her mother to help. My daughter was in labor when we were escaping there was no one to help during the birth of my grandchild i helped my daughter deliver the baby alone it was in the jungle on a hilltop im in ma i cut the umbilical cord with my own hands it was a tough job media and her family are the latest arrivals in a mass exodus ever he. Come it has sane left Rakhine State with his four children he says Security Forces are committing atrocities. That the military brought to our houses and encircled the village they were forcing us to take National Verification cards if we taken them they would run through us from our village because the cards are not. So we skate on here in the jungle now were here in bangladesh. It was a long and difficult journey for hamad and his family and its not over yet they in around two thousand dollar range are being held at a Border Crossing by bangladeshi gods theyve not been told why over how long theyll be stuck there bangladesh says the refugees require vetting but the u. N. Is calling on the government to allow them to move to a refugee camp because people have been walking for days just to reach them. Even last night across the border there in terrible shape we hope the government can release them let them come further inland as soon as possible. Officials in Rakhine State deny the military is committing human rights abuses the myanmar government says there were Illegal Migrants and doesnt officially recognize them despite many having lived in myanmar for generations. The Bangladeshi Government says it cannot cope with any more refugees. All of which leaves are a hinge a like has see stateless and persecuted with no way to call home victoria gave him a aljazeera. Head of the news our clothing on a day dedicated to ending crimes against journalists we take you to the most dangerous place in the world to be a reporter. Bus minister has its first resignation and a growing Sexual Harassment scandal. I was a memorable night her for in the Champions League against real madrid peter has a bad sport. Just sixty seven words change the course of history in the least the Balfour Declaration led to the state of israel and dispossession of palestinians from their homeland israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is in the u. K. To meet treece in may and mark the day there have been demonstrations in occupied palestinian territories these are the scenes outside the british consulate in East Jerusalem where protesters have gathered carrying black flags when an apology and accountability from the British Government for that declaration fosset a sort of protest in ramallah in the occupied west bank. Under the anniversary of the Balfour Declaration being marked here in ramallah new york the pied west bank by protests there was a march to the British Cultural Center here also one hundred thousand letters from Palestinian High School students were handed in to the british consulate in East Jerusalem expressing their feelings about the legacy of the Balfour Declaration we got a statement two from the prime and from the president s office what about his office in which he called again for an apology from britain in recognition of the state of palestine and compensation to that i was asked to do people both in political moral and material terms as for the israeli recognition of this moment its relatively muted in israel proper there are some conferences going on the real focus is in london where Benjamin Netanyahu and the british Prime Minister reason may be attending a dinner we expect to hear from the british Prime Minister in which she is likely once again to express the pride of britain in helping to create a homeland for a persecuted people and we also expect her to talk about the need for a renewed resolve in finding a settlement that satisfies both the israelis and the palestinians little satisfaction on display here though for palestinians this is very much the moment that one hundred years of dispossession displacement occupation that all began the Balfour Declaration has been described as one of the most controversial and contested documents of modern arab history elater the creation of the state of israel in the forced expulsion and displacement of millions of palestinians from their historic lands a look at this this is what palestine looked like one hundred years ago jews only made three percent of the population well it shows how palestine slowly disappeared and the map over the years palestinians are now only allowed limited self rule and small pockets under Israeli Military occupation the longest and modern history so joining us now on set here and Bashar Al Jazeera senior political analyst mara when you look at the the real life consequences of what this declaration was. Why the resistance from the u. K. Or from theresa may not all of the u. K. Obviously to at least acknowledge what those consequences were and isnt there a way to do that without necessarily insulting israel if thats what she wants to do you know thats actually thats a very good question i wish we could ask it to theresa may because and then theres a day just like there is a certain. Sort of criticism and review of the past thats happening in a number of western countries and by their colonial past about the horror of racism of slavery and so on so forth people are bringing down monuments for slavery and calling you lism but there is some a decided to erect basically erect a monument for lord both for that made that terrible declination of the time and its like a dish of you all over again you know both for and the last child of the zionist leader at the time and today may and Prime Minister netanyahu and its not deja vu and by the way because Sexual Harassment was pervasive at the time ninety seven in the United States apparently today in british politics but it is because the same racist mindset among the elites that ruled at the time apparently is ruling today now you could look at the politics of it of the cynicism of it and make some conclusions for example foreign minister. Johnson wrote in his book in two thousand and four about churchill that this declaration by balfour was a bizarre confused terrible tragic comedy but today he said its always a great things why because today hes a foreign minister in three semis government. Really the mindset of colonialism the mindset that drove those countries to the First World War i mean people dont remember those were terrible times. Russia the most those were the years that fifteen plus Million People died in the First World War were thirty five million casualties because of the visions of people in london berlin moscow and vienna and so on so forth so the both of declination was an expression of the times and those were terrible times colonial times racism times change and and times evolve but only if people are the ones that are pushing the change and evolution right and you would think that leaders are less cynical and that they do correspond to the general population in the u. K. Ive just come back from london. Generally people in the u. K. Like people in the u. S. Are less racist and their leaders less elitist than leaders and more open to criticize their past to look more open and towards their past thats why theyre discussing when you go and when humans forces im in america and theyre discussing the colonial past in the u. K. And by the way the main scholars in israel are also taking a critical look about their own past and taking a very moral stand if you will about the crimes of zionism about what happened to the Palestinian People in terms of this possession occupation the source for but the elite remain cynical and thats why the meeting between Prime Minister may and Prime Minister netanyahu while they want to celebrate the success of visit to being what it is and by the way israel has been at war for seventy years now exactly up an issue for the jewish people be that as it may instead of recognizing a cleese the palestinians rights for so that im a nation also and a state of their own and they could be rising the injustices happen to the palestinians they are celebrating but for doesnt have to be as we said earlier is there a sound game although that is what it ended up being marwan thank you very much and. The british Prime Minister has named chief whip Gavin Williamson as the new defense secretary he replaces Michael Fallon over who quit rather over allegations of inappropriate sexual behavior its the first resignation and a Sexual Harassment scandal at westminster in recent days ago sions have been made about m.

Well things are getting extremely uncomfortable now for the Prime Minister to resign may who can really ill afford this sort of scandal this sort of destruction and moment of crucial importance in negotiations but its clear now with the departure of the secretary of defense of Michael Phelan a senior minister and also with her party mired in allegations of Sexual Misconduct its not the only party of course all the parties are touched by it but the conservatives deeply implicated by it its clear that she cant now avoided some reports suggesting that so Michael Phelan was pushed that he was forced to resign by the Prime Minister who has said that she will demand the same of any minister found guilty of such misconduct so Michael Phelan in his letter of resignation to the Prime Minister saying that look what the conduct may have been considered acceptable ten or fifteen years ago clearly is not now the culture he said was changed he was accused hes admitted putting his hand on the knee of a journalist three times during a dinner in two thousand and two with among the fallout on thursday senior conservatives calling for a sea change for much deeper change for the Prime Minister to use this moment to draw a line under what has been described as a sort of boys own locker room culture essentially that men in positions of seniority of power within the parliamentary infrastructure using their power improperly over colleagues over junior staff and volunteers the fifteen thousand or so pass holders who come and go from the powers of westminster every day many of them young women young men desperate to climb the ladder of power and dependent on these men in power for the opportunity to do so.

Baro courts on the challenges journalists face while covering the conflict. This is. Known as a bully as hed when the syrian uprising started in two thousand and eleven he joined the hundreds of activists turned journalists he took his camera and went wherever there was a story to tell a protest or a battle this is covering a bubbles bush to take over how this would be his last assignment. Was killed a few days later this was eight months ago but mother is still coming to terms with her grief. My son spent the whole time covering protests and war he used to tell me hed take me on a trip all over the world once the war was over and thatd never leave me again. Syria is the most dangerous country in the world for journalists. Despite that many take to the streets to document every detail of the war standing a few meters from where bombs are landing many have lost their lives including photographer. Who was killed last year. And. A local reporter covering the war for channel he was shot by a sniper. In two thousand and thirteen. Fighting in syria shows no sign of letting Government Forces recapture more territory the rebels which we have the result is one of the few citizen journalists still operating in the villagers or the amount an area in northwestern province. Has covered some of the deadliest russian and government attacks there and again and. Each time we go through in the aftermath of an attack the government warplanes launch another wave strike killing some permit.
