Without charge in tension and in nigeria Human Rights Watch says the arrests were made as part of an anti terror crackdown. The describes a severely overcrowded sounds 250 or 300. 10 meters high temperatures. This is the weekly here on our t. V. Welcome to our roundup of the headlines that shape the week. The iranian president says he wants gulf nations to Work Together to provide security in the region that comes after his country standoff with the u. S. Intensified this week washington accused iran of being behind a drone attack on an oil refinery in saudi arabia and made this pledge of support to riyadh. The president has approved the deployment of u. S. Forces which will be defensive in nature and primarily focused on air and Missile Defense we will also work to accelerate the delivery of military equipment to the kingdom of saudi arabia and the u. A. E. To enhance their ability to defend themselves it is clear that even the saudis themselves dont believe the fiction of iranian involvement. The drone missile attacks were claimed by cruise the rebels in yemen on friday saudi forces launched several airstrikes near the yemeni port of diana a Saudi Coalition spokesman said the goal was to prevent who the rebels from launching remote controlled assault on shipping in the red sea and the saudis and the u. S. Still blaming iran for the attack on the oil facility. Has more. That is being decided that iran did not start an opinion a finding with the result of an investigation its a decision guilty secretary gather any new evidence that shows who was behind the attacks and do you think it is slam dunk case to bring to the u. N. Next week. I think its abundantly clear and there is an enormous consensus in the region that we know precisely who conducted these attacks was iran i didnt hear anybody in the region who doubted that for a single month. Trub is doing what trump does best signing pieces of paper bringing to bear a slew of new sanctions against iran but these are the highest sanctions ever imposed on a country weve never done it to this level. And its too bad whats happening with iran its going to hell the americans who werent attacked of already decided what happened then who is guilty the saudis who were attacked and have all the day bree and bits and pieces of the missiles are still working on technicalities like evidence and proof let that sink in. The attack did not originate from yemen the attack was launched from the move and was unquestioned be sponsored by iran its not in the range of yemens capabilities if it was them who conducted the attack this is one of the missiles we have recovered and we have information that leads us to the source of these. Kind of components were made in iran. So what they found is the weapons were allegedly made with components they were fired from the north the direction of iran and its neighbors so cutting to the chase it was iran thats what youre going to say right not once during the presentation did the saudis specifically say that iran did it 1 may ask what on earth saudi defenses were doing at the taj theyve got the 3rd biggest military budgets on earth but of americas best clients the countries livid with patriot and other anti Missile Systems 80000000000. 00 a year should protect you from a score of drones and missiles no the only thing that might be iranian related is that maybe some of the equipment some of the technology that the who these have might have been incorporated into the attack but why why or why is anyone complaining especially the saudis since the u. S. Has been providing the bombs and the aircraft to the saudis to bomb yemen for 4 years so the who with these are just responding back then again to those saying its iran because there are alleged iranian components in the day bri does that mean that the u. S. Is responsible for her refit massacres in yemen i mean sure saudi arabia dropped the bombs but the moves say made in the United States more likely than not he has been clearing the shelves of american arms manufacturers recently by this logic is new need to investigate to collect evidence its american bombs it has got to be america. And. Again. Theres. An entire country reduced to misery and pain untold thousands dead more to die but you know what its the oil refinery in saudi arabia the book was vengeance. And to beijing activists in hong kong have staged another protest the summit autonomous chinese city is in the grip of a 16th consecutive weekend of demonstrations and unrest the protesters have been waving American Flags and stamping on chinese guns on saturday police in the city used tear gas and rubber bullets all writers threw molotov cocktails and started fires in the streets. On tuesday leading name in the Hong Kong Protest Movement appealed to u. S. Lawmakers and Congress Joshua wants them to pass a bill that would see greater u. S. Support for hong kong. Hong kong special status under american law depends on the city being treated as a separate customs area beijing should not have it both ways wrapping all the economy benefit of hong kong standing in the world while erosion of our freedom that is the most important reason why the hong kong human rights and democracy act and just bought some throws off hong kong civil society. Well as a prominent activist who organizes protests against the Chinese Government in support of hong kongs independence the 22 year old is also a leader of the pro democracy party. Hes already served several jail terms for his activities explains why one has planned for us supervision over hong kong may backfire. They are many theyve won the fight with the authorities by early submission but they are anything but done the American Flag waving taskforce among the hong kong protesters are sending their poster boy to convince us legislators to do Something Big on autonomy. Well for those of you having difficulty making out the essence of this boilerplate script its that human rights and democracy act and its meant to show beijing that the u. S. Is serious about fighting for hong kongs rights the United States must make clear to china that its interference in hong kongs affairs will have consequences this month we must pass a by cameron bipartisan on Consumer Rights and democracy act the bill was devised in response to what the u. S. Has been calling a chinese infringement on the regions autonomy and requires for america to review own comms special status annually and if that status is ever revoked the regions autonomy would not so much been friendly to but rather new to dust since the early ninetys hong kong has been enjoying huge advantages for wearing washingtons special status badge. And some believe that a small yet vocal group of protesters is laying an explosive tripwire for the whole region which will not enjoy the konami Chain Reaction if its ever triggered in a way this theyve just. To get all of the d the biggest economy in the world. Will always just ordered. But was is going to hold a great deal but its not just the whole portly there are thousands all United States dont believe it would likewise be affected of course its a political war because. Its only or percent of chinas economy he was the. Head of the deal years ago in be a kind of tool more as far as equality is also. Its now but this isnt on the other hand of course we lost i wish the one country to see so as to help china with the internationalization that really with. All american legislators see the bill is designed to punish Mainland China specifically as protesters would not but while the end goal may very well be punishing beijing in pursuit of a geo political supremacy washington my just overlooked the collateral damage. The israeli president is intervening to break the deadlock over forming a new government hes initiated 2 days of crunch talks with Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu and his main rival benny gantz both are vying to head a coalition after snap elections fail to return a majority. According to the Election Commission we have received 33. 00 seats and netanyahu did not achieve the bloc that he had hoped to achieve citizens of israel want to the unity government even after previous elections and they want to now i was talking about it almost for the whole year i intend to create why do you need to government with me as the leader. I was surprised and disappointed by the fact that as of now benny gantz still refuses my cool to meet the president called for unity and without a meeting between the 2 Major Party Leaders a unity government cannot be formed as are all now faces the prospect of a 3rd round of elections and less than a year of an agreement between the blocks isnt reached into the center left blue and White Alliance won 33. 00 seats while Netanyahu Center right party was just behind a bloc of air parties known as joint list came 3rd gaining 5 more seats than in the previous election this block poses a major threat to the party as it could enter into a coalition with dances Alliance Arab voter turnout was high at around 59 percent and its thought that was spurred in part by netanyahu is inflammatory remarks about arab districts and the potential for voter fraud urban bercow a commentator for israel today says a coalition involving the arabs would still be difficult to pour. Probably wants unification between the 2 main blocs they want unification and numbers speaks for us and as for the. Party you know its sensitive to say that any of the 2 blocs mainly the good the guns. The red white brock can adopt them because they object to anything called zionism is a very real and they support to do surely the Palestinian Terrorist organization its hard to be allied with such a bloc they cannot be adopted this part of legitimate government because they are all gypsy everything we do. They are blocked with trying to blackmail to go to government so its very hard to predict what is about to happen in the new near future. Social media giant facebook is apparently undergoing a bit of an identity crisis its changed the way it scribes itself from a platform to a publisher and that could have some important ramifications and they recently the case facebook claimed it was a publisher insisting it has the right to ban whoever wants but that would also make it liable for what goes out on its platform responsibility its previously tried to dodge go has more so what have we got here. Thats better. Plaintive ultra right web activist laura loom or who was taken off pretty much all major Online Platforms defendant facebook one of the giants which kicked her out we carefully flicked through these court papers which the defendant filed could fly and bury the lawsuit and heres what really caught the eye. To the extent miss lewis claimed targets facebooks decision to deactivate her accounts it is also deficient on the well established law made the facebook nor any of the publisher can be liable for failing to publish someone elses message 1st amendment provides absolute protection for such decisions what was it again your facebook nor any other publisher protection by the 1st amendment so in this particular case the lawyers of sucking co are happy to legally refer to their social network as up publisher digging a bit deeper will reveal facebook has done that in the past as well when last year an app startup was crossing swords with facebook in court this is what came from the network spent the thought discretion is a 3 speechwriter respective what technological means is used so is it just me or somethings wrong with how the platform we use every day identifies itself because when facebook bosses take questions in other places it seems they always try to distance themselves from the notion publisher which are you are you a tech company or are you the Worlds Largest publisher because i think that goes to a really important question on what form of regulation or Government Action if any we would take senator this is. A really big question i view us as a tech company because the primary thing that we do is build technology and products are you responsible for your content which make exactly on of a publisher. Well i agree that were responsible for the content but we dont produce the content and thats been the message for quite a while. We are a tech company not a Media Company i do think we have to be the publisher and we definitely dont want to be the arbiter of the truth now just imagine what kind of legal trouble the tech giant may put itself in if it becomes universally recognized the company Mr Zuckerberg is running is a publisher not just a tech platform are they really ready to be responsible for anything disturbing or outright criminal that gets posted under the blue logo the examples have been out there in abundance. The way or what if simply someone decides to lawyer and bully me with all kinds of offensive stuff right on facebook should i then also follow defamation suit against the network because they as a publisher a lot of its well known you cant have a cake and eat it at the same time will probably unless your last name is sucker berg we did ask a spoke to respond to this story all this so far they have refused to comment and weekly continues after this short break. What politicians do something to. Put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. So when you want to be president im sure. Some want to. Have to go right to the press this is like the for 3 of the more people. Interested always in the waters about how. They see. The. Tensions between the masses and clauses have existed ever since modern states came into being they often serve as a drawing of a real political change with Russian Civil Society growing larger and louder against the excesses of the governing leaks what does the future of the political system look like. And. Welcome back an ongoing crackdown on terrorists in nigeria has seen thousands of children being detained thats according to a new report by Human Rights Watch we spoke to one of the researchers behind the publication. Since 2013 nigeria has detained about 3600 children and in june a Human Rights Watch went to the northeast of nigeria where boko haram its most active and we interviewed more than 30 children who had been detained the vast majority of these children were never charged with a crime in fact they were never taken to court and never had the opportunity to see a judge the children were denied contact with their families and held in orrible conditions they described so little space that they couldnt turn over at night they were you know piled one next to the other they described it like the razor blades in a pack many of them something began losing hope that they would ever be released some felt they would die in detention children as young as 5 were reportedly held an overcrowded military detention facilities on little or no evidence they spent months some even years there without charge with reports of sexual physical and mental abuse and as well as extreme overcrowding the children had been accused of involvement with the Armed Terrorist Group boko haram. The radical Islamist Organization is based in northeastern nigeria carries out suicide bombings as well as armed assaults out west africa in 2015 back to her own pledge allegiance to Islamic State and many of the in prison children were rounded up by nigerian authorities during military operations against the terrorists. They are smee if i was a member of booker and beat me up when i said no they tied my hands and legs and hung me to a tree and continued to flow camy they flogged me and left me tied to the tree from morning to evening one person from my village was killed during the interrogation if you make a noise if you drink water without asking them if you go toward the door to get fresh air they be chewed. The soldiers had girlfriends one of the girls from our village was a girl friend of a soldier she would usually take her out of the compound some ladies got pregnant in the cell and delivered while i was there. That i did and authorities have released over 2000 children from detention since 2013 nearly all of them have been held without charge jo becker again says the government should make more of an effort to release the children still being held nobody knows the current number of children who may still be in military custody nigerian authorities do not allow the United Nations or independent organizations like Human Rights Watch to access the military Detention Centers but what Human Rights Watch is calling for is that nigerian authorities release any remaining children in military detention and transfer them to civilian Child Protection authorities so that they can receive rehabilitation help or unifying with their families and reintegrating into their community. And they very military denies the allegations made in the report saying the children are kept in secure areas and adequately cared for weve asked the Nigerian Ministry of justice for comment but have not received any reply.
