And all of their policies. One could get the impression our position is close to that of the air but if you just look through their proposal and listen to what theyre seeing here you realize that its all about attacking migrants. And the proposal of the air of d. Is permeated with populism it took nor the reality getting it into law of who ever seen the wording of the proposal and heard the speech of the f. T. Representative will recognize instantly that its not about the improvement of age verification but about stirring up animosity against young migrants. The kind of rhetoric were purged from the goes against our christian values its all about who towards foreigners and those we cannot support. We also saw on thursday and the parliamentary session it was held at the alternative for germany put forward an idea that the one of the reasons behind a rise in anti semitism in germany had been due to the influx of. Islamic immigration that was then shot down many parties including all anglo Merkels Christian Democratic Union saying that anti semitism had its roots in the far right in politics in germany and elsewhere around so thats where we stand at the moment for them if theyve just entered Parliament Last september following the election this is the first time that theyre really getting their teeth into legislation its not going well if youre an alternative which are many supporter anyway at the moment all of the other parties coming together uniting is want something we cant find them doing over any other issue here in germany say no to the a. F. D. And no to their policies. And its not only in the German Parliament that the f. T. C. Having a rough ride recently the facebook account of one of its members was blocked following her call for people to join a womens march against rapes and killings perpetrated by migrants i organize a womens march to the chancery almost every day we read about horrific creeps and murder of women the more women come the more pressure it will put america and politicians from the old parties together but a stick to the streets to fight for our right to freedom and saboteur many. Despite belonging to a party known for a strong anti migrant rhetoric bilger whos the womens and childrens rights activist regularly travels to syria and iraq to help people shes of my good origin herself and was surprised that the official reason for her facebook ban. As going to facebook of a show on my travels with facebook started a few years ago facebook has a big issue with women and migrant backgrounds only you can notice that i dont have a nordic location i can see that i am originally from the south and here in germany i find the human rights which isnt always easy in islamic countries people like me are silenced by facebook and since i have a certain popularity and quite a large following i was blocked for thirty days then my account was deleted but that wasnt the first time my accounts have now been purged four times and since i am a member of the air of d. Which in germany fights for womens rights i am a nuisance for facebook and the mainstream media. There was burned under the new law that forces social media to delete offensive content within twenty four hours after receiving a complaint otherwise companies could face huge fines this month the deputy leader of the alternative Germany Party saw her facebook and twitter account suspended after she criticized the countrys police was saying happy new year arabic. Again says that people who express their anger at my Group Policies in germany are seeing their voices silenced online. This Public Policy of the German Government and especially of the old parties is intended to help young men from islamic or african countries get settled in europe and to accept their religion and culture for this reason and german citizen who has lived here forever is being ignored and in the case of facebook or twitter it works like this they censor all critical statements even though they are consistent with the real situation of course it runs against the mainstream political line in germany for this reason they try to silence all critics of the German Governments asylum policy. Youre watching off international ill be back with more news after this short break. With the Islamic State and its many confederates defeated or facing defeat in syria what is next for this war torn country what justification exists for the u. S. To maintain military forces that does washington want syria partition. And why. Young children have worked in bolivia for generations almost three quarters of a million a doing so today. This culture led to the development of bolivias new liberal and highly controversial childrens code in two thousand and fourteen which gave children as young as ten the right to work under certain circumstances what is and isnt as. Is almost. Eat without having the end all. The things years. But there are hundreds of thousands of children in bolivia operating completely outside the local. Mining work is strictly forbidden by the children but its never enforced and that means the school boy minus here continues risking their lives for the money they need to survive on. Welcome back if you decide to challenge americas experiment in democracy it is going to be your worst day those are the words of the u. S. Defense secretary as he unveiled americas new Defense Strategy which were now primarily focused on deterring russia and china. But we will continue to prosecute the campaign against terrorists that were engaged in today but Great Power Competition not terrorism is now the primary focus of your national security. Ok our correspondent is done of joins. The Great Power Competition sounds grand what is it well it does sound grand and it is grand this socalled u. S. Defense the u. S. Defense strategy so much more on the offensive side of tracks it almost makes you think that someone copy and pasted the outdated title from the previous one you know so yes the first thing you should know about this is that the cold war mentality the socalled its the cold war priority that is making a comeback of this great power challenge where this Great Power Competition is something the United States military hasnt been focused on since from since decades ago since the times of the cold war so really the infamous war on terror is taking the backseat now it is being put on the back burner and instead washington has russia and china in its sights almost literally heres how they are justifying this. We face growing threat from revisionist powers as different as china and russia or from each other nations that do seek to create a world consistent with their authoritarian models are showing Veto Authority over and other nations economic Diplomatic Security decision. Well really the say at the moment in terms of modernization what does that promise this doctrine well it promises more troops more weapons more everything is specially in the realm of cyberspace in realms of space and. Nuclear Nuclear Program and the u. S. Nuclear program obviously is going to consume more Money Matters is intending to create more to create a separate department a whole new unit to be tasked with Cyber Defense so this is what it is going to be about this is what this modern is modernization weve called the use the word phenomenal to describe what is going to be about ok well do stay with me you can have some input as well as bring in a guest now Gregory Copley hes the editor of defense of Foreign Affairs journal and hes also the president of the International Strategic studies association gregor its been a while great to speak to you again you got a chance to absorb this new Defense Strategy my first instinct is its sort of help making your budget bigger but you know more than i do whats your reaction. Well this is actually a profoundly Important National Defense Strategy and of course it follows president Trumps National Security Strategy which is fairly vague this actually gets back to having u. S. Defense and if you like a business as usual basis we saw the last two decades since the nine eleven attacks in two thousand and one absolutely shattered the u. S. Military model it abandoned normal if you like conventional and nuclear military activities in favor of a Counter Terror and a counterinsurgency strategy now its it realizes it has neglected its conventional force structure and its Strategic Nuclear force structure and is getting back to rebuilding its forces this is actually a very sound its probably the best Defense Strategy paper weve seen come out of the pentagon for decades it is in it if you look at the substance of the eleven pages which are unclassified it actually does not paint and aggressive posture against russia or china it talks about them a strategic competitor is it very much in its in its substance keeps away from talking about russia and china as threats clearly though it places greater predominance of importance on on the on the concerns of other competition with china because the peoples republic of china has in fact challenge the u. S. In in the global arena very very significantly and is and has made the games russia and china have both used the past two decades particularly since the end of the balkan wars to build their conventional military capabilities and have done so while the u. S. Has remained fairly static thats about to change its not a return to cold war politics its a return to a balanced military doctrine and strategy and it does place more emphasis on cyber and. Conventional operations particularly Information Dominance yes the u. S. Needs to modernize and perhaps even scale back its Nuclear Capabilities it kind of void doing that in the transition from a Nuclear World to a cyber and Information Dominance world but it is the interesting thing it takes the emphasis away from nato although it does support nato but it says the principle Alliance Structure for the United States will be in the indopacific and the trumpet ministration is taking up the goal of something which i pioneered twenty years ago by looking at the combined Indian Ocean Pacific region as an indivisible combined strategic theater and the u. S. Is now seeing that as well its looking at a new Alliance Structure in that area not just with ns us with a stranger in new zealand but also with japan and india so looking at this new quadripolar tight strategic Alliance Structure for the endeavor civic the u. S. Is back in the in day pacific and thats its major realm and the may just routine millet and military competition will be necessary to balance chinas massive upgrade certainly the u. S. Cannot ignore the major advances in Quality Technology and performance of the Russian Armed forces thats a fact of life every country which is in the International Arena has to take that into account so thats thats very normal but this is not a hostile defense posture towards russia or even for that matter towards china but it does serve notice that the United States will start to rebuild its capabilities in ways which it once lived in. Well gregory de facto according to this new document that has been unveiled the u. S. Military has somewhat been tasked to compete with russia and china on the geo political arena and from the looks of things isnt or isnt it something that the diplomats are supposed to be doing and not the army. Well could i ask that question about the Russian Armed forces projecting very successfully into the middle east into the United States previously dominant domain and the and the Russian Armed forces have actually displace the United States forces as a Strategic Security influence there and it is the United States supposed to not accept that is it supposed to. Not build its forces up to to regain its past year in that arena of course its going to do that and of course it has to account for the the substantial improvement of the Russian Military and Strategic Force Projection Capabilities over the past two decades russia has been really significant in that and in a sense by challenging the patrol areas if you like of nato in the baltic in the north atlantic in the mediterranean in the middle east of course that poses a concern to the u. S. It doesnt mean that the u. S. And russia cannot and will not cooperate of course i think they will but the United States
