Mohammed is taking refuge at the Red Crescent Center outside zaza this other survivors like him are still struggling to cope with the terror of the wondering if they ever dare to go through it all again to reach europe a new symmetry is being built here it already contains the bodies of 71. 00 people that were washed ashore on the citys beaches last month. Each of these graves have been numbered in the d. N. A. Sample has been taken from each one of the victims the record of those is being held at the local hospital already the director of the red crescent is receiving inquiries from all over the held region and even from morocco about who might be lying here these waters are meant to be a source of fun and pleasure but the death toll is rising all the time and thats reality thats haunting this speech David Chaytor aljazeera sources. Here with aljazeera live from london much more still ahead for you on the program Tech Companies a host at the white house to discuss the rise in online extremism is learning a trade war between the United States and china the answer might be in latin america. And tiger woods is challenging the Northern Trust comes to an end santa will be here to explain why. Police say the gunman in saturdays shooting in el paso confessed to the crime after surrendering and said he had been targeting mexicans posted a racist and White Nationalist document online ahead of that attack which left 22. 00 people dead lets go live now to kristen slimmy in washington what is the latest on the investigation kristen. Well these are new details that are emerging about how and when the gunman allegedly confessed police say that they had him surrounded in his vehicle he stepped out with his hands in the air surrendered saying im the shooter basically admitting that he was guilty of this mass shooting that left 22 people dead and later when he was taken into custody he spoke to investigators waived his rights not to implicate himself and said that he was in fact targeting mexicans 22 people were killed 8 of them were actually from the country of mexico mexican nationals several more had hispanic sounding names this happened in El Paso Texas which sits right on the border of mexico so theres a lot of back and forth across the border between the 2 cities we also what we dont know officially yet is if that race is screed that was posted on lied was in fact done so by him that is what is suspected that has yet to be confirmed all of this leading up to the question of whether or not 21 year old patrick cruciatus will be charged in fact with a hate crime right now hes facing capital murder charges but the investigation is ongoing and given what we are learning could be those charges could be upgraded to a hate crime and what about the political fallout so funny. Well well we know that this shooting has only fueled criticism against president for using what many consider to be racist language whether and contributing to a kind of. An environment of hate a feeling of hate that could have led to this shooting whether its president telling for women of color for Congress Women of color they should go back to the country they came from or denigrating the hometown of a black congressman hes been under a lot of criticism for setting a racist tone in our that could lead to this kind of event but whats really interesting in the wake of this is that now the president and the Republican Party are talking about gun control measures something that republicans have not been willing to discuss in the past even though the United States has more Mass Shootings and more gun violence than any country in the world something that hasnt really come up in the past or hasnt been able to get through congress in the past now the president says that he would be in favor of quote intelligent background checks strengthening background checks for people in order for them to buy a gun in the hopes of preventing some of these kinds of Mass Shootings and he seems to have some support from the Senate Majority leader republican Mitch Mcconnell on that front this is New Territory for the republicans theyve stopped short of going so far as supporting it in assault weapons ban which is what some on the left would like to see happen but there seems to be movement that we havent seen in some time towards gun control measures in the wake of this shooting thank you very much for the latest on this from washington kristen salumi well the Drama Administration is hosting various Tech Companies to discuss the rise in online extremism today the internet has long been around for extremists looking to congregate and recruit the online messaging board 8 chan is believed to have posted a document by the texas government showing White Supremacists use shortly before saturdays attack the site has since gone offline and its members about to relocate to alternative platforms and encrypted messaging services. Well one of the science they appear to be moving to is dab the webform was frequented by the alleged shooter in the 2800 pittsburgh synagogue attack on wednesday it said it was adding more than a 1000 new uses each day facebook now automatically blocks links from the daily storm this is a white supremacist messaging board that is launching been deep platforms it was linked to violence by White Nationalists in charlottesville in 2017 earlier this year facebook announced tighter restrictions on its streaming feature after a gunman in new zealand life filmed an attack on 2 mosques which left 51. 00 people dead well and kelly is a Digital Cultures analyst at university of east anglia and joins me live via skype from nor its the white house didnt disclose which Tech Companies would be attending this meeting but is it your sense that they are serious about cracking down on the far right extremism online. Thats a good question i think that Tech Companies will always have a vested interest essentially in hosting sites with. Palatable content purely because theres money to be made up at that market essentially if you can identify a gap in the market and a kind of capitalist logic then you can identify a source of revenue and this is how sites like a chair and have been ticking along. For years and years now essentially and the daily storm of im really glad you brought that up because that was also another really good example of the quite well known and quite popular hate sites that essentially managed to create a revenue stream for Cyber Security companies for. Hostess for didnt do their own registrars so its really good to see that there is being some pressure being put on these companies essentially and some political pressure as well and theres theres some pressure being put on these companies but not enough presumably because for the any sort of crackdown to be effective from what youre saying you have to completely cut off their profitability yeah thats exactly right and its one of those problems where its obviously not a toad letting problem to the question of white supremacist violence. You know the problem a would say if we want to really tackle it starts at the root cause its a tough start to a society which creates this kind of economic and social structure which creates alienated and disaffected young men who find solace in these sites and slowly become radicalized but in the interim it really does feel wrong that people are making money off of sites that have blood on their hands and simple language. Its a pose it is a very difficult to perhaps you know find it precise cause the links. But in terms of those that are attracted to these far right sites and those that use them it does the evidence show that people are radicalized by these sites or do these sites in fact attract individuals that already subscribe to this sort of violent ideology. Theres always a kind of combination of both its very rare that someone shows up to the internet with a kind of complete coherent near nazi ideology usually what happens is theres a. Theres a Conveyor Belt effect essentially people will gradually kind of go from one site which is kind of slightly racist leanings to a kind of more extremist one to a more extremist one and then you end up by openly white supremacist neo nazi forbes so how do you control or strain that sort of. Domino effect without impinging on peoples right to use the internet and the critics that will say it affects free speech precisely i mean i think that free speech on the internet is actually something that we really do need to commit ourselves to and that makes this a really difficult difficult balancing act right im not particularly comfortable with the idea that we should give the government or indeed a you know large Tech Companies even more monitoring powers into our private lives but i sue certainly think that these sites will always find a way to exist but at the minute whats happening is theyre profiting essentially off the extremism effect that theyre creating so they have a vested interest in more and more people becoming radicalized and therefore spending more and more time on their site and that is something that we can actually tackle the profit motive without directly impinging on free speech in my opinion. So why if that is something quite an obvious relatively simple step to take why is that not being done. Essentially as i said before because these Companies Want to make money right and they are very happy for this stuff to stay in the shadows and for us to lead is that not require more proactive regulatory Government Intervention in their websites thems on the websites themselves or on the terms of the hotel rooms or cutting off profitability. I mean theres different ways that we can go about as we saw a cloud actually has completely shut down without any kind of government regulation that was pure social pressure. So i think thats a kind of mentoring that we really need to keep up weeding to keep up a sense that what this violence is is a kind of terrorist problem in a terrorist threat to the level of. The islamist terrorism at the same sense well thank you very much appreciate you sharing your thoughts with us on this annie kelly Digital Culture is joining us from the university of east anglia thank you thank you for having me. In other developments u. S. President donald trump has doubled down on a trade war with china with another round of tariffs set to be imposed next month but for all the countries that lateral dispute has brought new trade benefits and one of the biggest winners appears to be mexico as there is money rappel has more on this now from mexico city. Mexico has taken the top spot among the United States is International Trading partners according to data from the 1st half of 2019. This potential gain from mexico is the result of a 12 percent drop in imports of chinese goods to the United States as a tariff war between the worlds 2 largest economies plays out. Uncertainty from International Investors over the u. S. China trade conflict however has also rattled markets on august 1st the Mexican Stock Exchange reacted with the worst trading day since the start of the year but casey it is because of these terrorist between the United States and china that we are seeing this disruption to Global Financial markets imagine what such a confrontation involving a neutral terrorist between the u. S. And mexico would brills this is not good for anyones. This disruption to Global Markets has also hit the mexican peso which devalued by 1. 57 percent on august 1st. Not good for National Economy which is only projected to grow by point 2 percent through 2019 is that this economic equilibrium that mexico appears to have is not solid i would say that the Economic Situation in mexico is shaky at best or mexico could maintain this balance at least until the end of year but it depends heavily on the policies pursued by president donald trump. Earlier this year mexico avoided its own trade war with the United States which could have had a devastating effect on the National Economy the reaction by Global Markets to growing tensions between the u. S. And china puts into question whether mexico really is the clear winner of the ongoing trade war or if there are any real winners at all. The dip in the stock prices also serve as a reminder that the mexican economy is subject to the confidence International Investors have in the u. S. Trying to relationship there may be nervousness in the markets but mexican exports the United States are still on the rise as mexico continues to pick up the slack left over from china there is one thing however that could on balance mexicos position the sluggishness of its own economy went up a little aljazeera mexico city so i have for you on the news hour and hes in kyrgyzstan made the t.
