5:30 am
costs as i say you all day with the cost because is the best way to say what comes back to me. for more than 30 years fatima of wide has devoted her life to helping each wave of newcomers to chicago. she immigrated to the us from palestine in the late 19 seventy's. now she's feeding refugees from across the glow who lined up at her door. that's your coffee, sir. wendy hungry. i know how they feel. it's not easy. hunger is our number. were any wish to meet the fight or i didn't need together to live in peace on a snowy day? the lines, it's an odd food pantry, stretched down the road for a 2nd. all that must be for the things that they give us here help us a lot. it is a great help, especially when you have a large family that are homeless. we look to make what we can and add to it with what we get here for one place or another. we get enough with 37000 new migrants
5:31 am
bus to chicago alone from texas over the past 2 years, pantries, here and across the u. s. are streaming to feel the grocery carts of the hungry was donated, food, chicago, food pantries have always been busy, but as the migrant numbers have increased, so have the lines. typically this i would see about 15 people on a given day. now they're saying to $300.00 and the lines will continue until the food runs out. some pantries here have started to reduce the number of times, families can visit each month, others ration the food they give out. the migrant search is on the rice with crowd sometimes tearing down border fences and breaking through the lines of us agents to add pain while we are a long, long time go my people and it's all good, you know, but okay, this plus you can't afford to support avery by when they arrive at her door for them is that she doesn't ask where they come from to whoever ask for help,
5:32 am
help look at the color, then again, customer of the just look at them as a human being. and that's how i do. because i've been so a lot when they come to me for something, i have the feeling i know how they feel because i've been sort in each new wave of immigrants. pharmacy is she sees herself, john henry and l g 0, chicago. well that's it from me down. jordan, my colleague, kerry johnson over here at the top of the, with another full bulletin. much more information of course, on a website out to 0 dot com. the news continues here. now just era off to the listening post. bye to thanks for watching the that we cannot agree on how to coordinate space traffic management. we risk those
5:33 am
to safety and the sustainability of space and worryingly, the breach of peace and security. you know, it just makes people empowered, investigates the proliferation of commercial satellites. and the far reaching influence of those who funded instead of tipping point. and we have a small window of opportunity to curtail catastrophic event fighting for space on a jersey to finally a cease fire resolution passes at the united nations. but what difference does it pick when israel will not order? and the us cause, i just don't find in jobs of the horrors of ethnic cleansing are compound. why is really surveillance technology. and the rent remote is re election campaign in, in the power by an army of foot soldiers on the ground and the messaging bullets on one side. this past week's united nations security council resolution demanding
5:34 am
a cease fire in gauze. the 1st to do so is significant, although not for the reasons its authors may have intended the passage of the resolution at the highest body of the un. with the u. s. declining to use its vito could mark a pivotal moment in israel's increasing international isolation. for its western backers, the fact that israel through its continued bombardment and starvation of palestinians is defying that resolution makes their role that much harder to defend. in the as ready media, the opposition to the un vote is almost unanimous. more striking is the lack of interest from american news outlets. the implications this story raises are a little uncomfortable for them as well. they hit close to home, because a fallacy has been exposed. the one about the us led international rules based order in which the rules are selectively apply those in favor
5:35 am
of the drugs to these origin please raise their hand. it was the ultimate mixed message sent from washington to tell of the that upon examination amounts to some cynical public public station for at least 32000 palestinian scheme, gods including those who have been starved to death in front of our off the cease fire resolution the cars at the united nations security council. this past week comes to live for those still getting killed by israel's bonding of rough patients and medical staff had out ship a hospital still getting shocked by israeli soldiers because had no discernible effect after v trolling 3 previous ceasefire resolutions. the american government finally allowed this one, which would last just 2 weeks to care. but the u. s. as ambassador to the un been
5:36 am
argued incorrectly according to legal experts, that on like every other resolution, the security council has ever passed. this one was in the category of its own that it was somehow known by we fully support some of the critical objectives in this non, by numerous solution. and we hope she was being merely rhetorical because she certainly can't be speaking from a legal perspective. all un security council resolutions are binding. the un charter mix that perfectly clear then takes another resolution to determine what actions will be taken if the parties defy it. as israel has said, it's going to do whether or not it's enforced. it's certainly binding as a matter of law. if americans are arguing that this is a non binding, it was an ocean the or wing thing. nathaniel, all by saying, you really don't have to implement it. the message to the is what it is, is that you can carry on with the war until you achieve whatever objectives you
5:37 am
have in mind. i don't think then you mean that's in yahoo tears much about the international community, the united nations security council, the un, they've made it clear within minutes. so the resolution passing to these readings have no intention of abiding by it. and indeed, less than 24 hours after the passage of that resolution, about 17 palestinians were killed in an israeli bombardment with scores of others injured. so the message is clear, israel has no intention of abiding by resolution to 7 to 8. call on the parties to cease fire for nothing. yeah. who governments put on a display of oak ridge over divide and then ministrations refusal to veto the resolution by initially cancelling a visit. fine is really delegation to washington before quietly rescheduling. it could have recalled it's defense minister, jo, i've got a lot who was already in the see showing up more american arms shipments to israel
5:38 am
did not other political figures like security minister, if i'm are ben give here dismissed the un as after you submit this in a country that, oh, it's a very existence to the united nation on the is really the airwaves that calls for palestinian flooded, keep coming down the road with us. you buy a fee of purchase and domestic politics are also a big part of the mix. the cost up mind back pre up to the center where you have a polarized society, the anti p b cab, the demonstrations every week, and the probate reaction bits along those lines. what you will see from john list in the entity the tap is ha ha. and here we have be destroying the reputation of israel. i left the stuff to feed him about the be the hope,
5:39 am
the inside me come up solid even though it's the week we thought of the real somebody that i wish was there. the pursuits between them for the other side. this is dangerous un america, losing its way and with the national, if you're not the one i'm a policy of lie on the go. also going to do, you know like go be a symbol of the name? that's funny. it's about the name negative and then obviously i have them on who's the guy who can stand up to this. you guessed, benjamin. dr. young. what stands out in the american media coverage of this story is the noticeable lack of it for the us to filter side with israel at the u. n. is almost unheard of. it is certainly newsworthy. couple back with the legal side of the story, the us arguing that a security council resolution is somehow not binding. one would expect journalists to test vac position picket apart. we're not seeing that. neither are american news
5:40 am
consumers and like israel domestic politics in the u. s. are having an impact. there has been a great deal of lack of interest in american media, especially the social gabriel media in the united states regarding the resolution, the budget administration is trying to avoid the port out of the extension and therefore media that are supportive of the democratic party made sure that the really did not dedicate so much time on the coverage so that they would minimize any possible repercussions that would be exploited by the opponents in the republican party, especially a few months before the presidential election for lack of coverage. it's consistent with the manner in which the question of palestine has been represented in the uh, west in mainstream media and not has basically been through the prism of and is really when you're not home us. israel is a democracy and a as a jewish state,
5:41 am
as supports and, and believes in every life matter. and so, and this is matched in canadian and united kingdom and other western states. foreign policies. it's harder for the western mainstream media to continue with their biased coverage in large part because you have the proliferation social media from the guys in st to the rest of the world. and because of the extent to which mainstream media in particular is very sensitive about being criticized from israel and it's right wing supporters in particular, it's been shy to highlight actions that are deemed to be critical of israel is not actually supporting genocide. okay. maybe just avoid that language if that's okay for now because the well in an obviously a u. s. vote of abstention on the security council. resolution demanding of
5:42 am
ceasefire would certainly be something that they would wish to ignore. minimize or sweep under the rug among the other stories, getting swept under his really forces reading hospitals in gods such as i'll shift, producing horrific testimonies of the cold blooded execution of palestinians, including 13 children, left for the amount of love with the hard hits. now followed by the total salon and there was that aerial assassination of 4 young on armed guards. is there any drone footage obtained by algebra and wide spread allegations of the systemic sexual assault and humiliation of palestinian women by israeli soldiers? some of whom have also been accused of great american and western news outlets were all over such stories,
5:43 am
many of which were later debunk. when the accused were members of from us. the alleged victims were as railey, and the date was october. such a possible genocide taking place and gaz is unique in human history. events on the ground are being transmitted in real time to the world as people are being killed and starved and so on. and that coverage that is coming from below is challenging the western media coverage on these things. the western media, even subconsciously, is aware that it is feeding into the narrative of the device of its own. are standing outside of the western space. it's done. no one takes seriously west and claims to be standing up for international window and no one wants to hear it often does it. the world will not let you to. there's no models. so books to stand in is does the only way in the top of standards
5:44 am
and the make the transparency of the hypocrisy as a cost that leaves us with a real problem do not have space that we can go to the last year. amnesty international revealed that israel was using facial recognition systems in the west bank to entrench its occupation of palestinians. their new details have now emerged about the technology that is where the soldiers are using . and garza and tara from alpha, is here with more. well for months now, we've heard reports and seen videos of palestinians forced from that homes crossing checkpoints where they are gunned by his riley comrades. some of these videos are truly destroyed trends in addition to being watched how the students also harassed
5:45 am
by is ready for the absolute this week. a new kinds piece revealed more information about the mass of valence. israel has deployed on palestinians and gaza, according to his reading intelligence officials who spoke to the times anonymously . it's part of an expensive and experimental effort to collect catalog the faces of palestinians without the knowledge or consent developed by a private is ready company called coal fights. it's really official say the system was initially used to search for his ready captive in gaza, but has since been used on a much wider scale to hunt down for math suspects is one of the problems with this kind of technology. as one is ready, officer can funds is that routine the, gets it wrong with this, right? the soldiers accused of abusing, torturing and executing palestinians and got of the consequences of being
5:46 am
incorrectly identified as a how much fighter can cost you your life. these really mean it truly has always use gov of a lab in which you can test and develop new ways of kenning or spying on palestinians . artificial intelligence is reportedly being used to generate targets in gaza, facilitating what's wonderful. my intelligence officer has cooled a mass assassination factory. we've also seen several videos of is ready drones shooting not. i'm kidding on on the palestinians. or this technology has timed gaza into a health scape in which at least 32 and a half 1000 palestinians have been killed by his ready forces. thank your tour in just under 3 weeks time on april 19th, india will begin a 6 week long election process for its next national government. it will all culminate on june, 1st, and prime minister and arrange remotely is expected to win and historic 3rd term in
5:47 am
office motives. popularity ratings are high. many of his opponents are mired in production cases, filed by motives government, and then there's the news media. mainstream outlets in india had been almost entirely captured by modi's party, the b j. p training of coverage that ranges from the sick, authentic to the openly pro government and that serve. while media landscape may not be the most powerful weapon in the b, j p's arsenal. it also has a formidable get out the vote. machine combines and extensive volunteer network with the power of whatsapp to influence voters, spread propaganda and a times so this information. but let's me post, i mean actually robbie now on the all encompassing information eco system that is likely to help putting a wrench remotely back in the prime minister's office. in new delhi, the indians have grown and used to be on the presence of
5:48 am
the prime minister. he's on deep or he's in the papers, both in ads and in the news. tv channels seem to have little as to cover. during march 16, the very the, the dates for india's elections would announce that in the movie was what's happening, the country, a metal, some of the prime minister was delivered straight into the phones of hundreds of millions of indians. made it got a buddy budget, their jobs sort of mission that has taken place in the lives of people is the biggest achievement of our government over the last 10 years. it is your support that gives the immense springs. i am confident that we will continue to take our nation created tides together. it was on bondage dictionary by the ruling party using the resources and access to the phone number databases of the government. and it was on surprising. it was all happening on what technology is very much part of
5:49 am
the austin this to you to be over on this. and the reason would use is bgp understood before the other party in the may not have electricity and but because and so on, so forth. but they have the cellphone, india has the cheapest data in the world, so the be to be in it is very vicious to conduct seriously. it developed messaging for each consistency that was something the prime minister movie and the parts agents. i thought you understood very well, mr. i'm a child who's actually virtually the number to to me some would need the pgp 2 years ago. like speaking to a fuck you will. cuz he had actually posted these items very easy for us to take the message because we have the largest of what's happening in the country. you
5:50 am
know, that was north of boost. that is actually true. you actually have a centralized, settled within the beach if you reach activity in the morning, decides, okay, these are 2 days messages which are to be publicized. and this kind of brought the cost to various parts of the country. these messaging is casey and highly produce the parties. the stock i'm being upfront and said to invite you to move a multitude drives to terms of to reduce from that because to what's up groups. youtube shots and instagram deals. the prime minister hangs out with kids in schools and presents 20 something social media influences with awards from the government. i really keep please at most of the temples with cameras into even as to who the site is underwater. those clips don't just stay on social media
5:51 am
. the make the evening newest details on the screen even decide what has to be at the most last time. well, this is part of media strategy creating a nation wide perception that's not in the more the, as the leader of this ruling party wants to take. and the fellow wants to create the developed india and make it the 3rd largest economy in the world. already hit the vehicle to be the yeah. i believe though a r v i gaze on one senior leader of the b. j. b. had said about mr. moody, you said for not in the more the elections is a back to love image here, and that is what the engine brand new service showing them. she has to be very good that. and you can that, did you ever decide to ology is policy or disagree?
5:52 am
but it is his political marketing that have been noticed. you must remember that in india, democracy works in different language zones. so the question is, how do you recognize the part connect to the symbols i was in the case, the prime minister movie. it is the recognition value of the more the name, the more the face he has different or so knows that you have present it to the public. one is that all of them for the visual good? which means what did he do? his performance on the international stage, it's going to do projected back home the other aspect of the messaging is that of being a strong enough for the taking goals and deep ceremonies in denver, or was performed like a head print. some of his party people have likened to god like the messaging is
5:53 am
extremely comprehensive, which is according to data. almost expensive in does. it's the because these finance is all for me to the body is the wealthiest in india. it's funds boosted by a financial to we, it's launched in 2017, called an electron on this policy instrument shooting a wave of politically donations to noon, but as parties across india, the bulk of the money, however, nearly 60 percent went to the bgp amounting to about 16 vinny and rupees, more than $725000000.00 funded between 2017. and just 2 months ago, february 2024. when the supreme court declared elect to bones equally due to the lack of transparency. the money is in the budget, these costs are as though and it follows not just an incessant stream of p r, but also an impressive organizational behemoth. the on the bins,
5:54 am
the parties election strategies on people to date, the pgp is the largest politicos locked in the word it is larger than the communist party of china are not dr. so there is a huge nickel. marty, wanting to use was spread across the country. besides that, it's very important to understand that the pgp is not a standalone organization, but it is part of a fairly large ideological umbrella group to sung buddy wide. it's an organization just found in 1925, almost a 100 years ago, and every way they have a presence. so during elections, it is not just the bgp which is out campaigning, but you have lead to us at kato, which kind of to virtually every village at every electoral votes in the country. so i think the door to door timeframe name is a very effective method. so you know, each page of the letter was,
5:55 am
is assigned to one person. so that person was, you know, to the visits the families to find friends, to find or have the benefit to some of the policies and the programs of the party. if not, why not? it is a party that's driven the really too far and the fed everybody's story becomes very important for them. now that the problem with the opposition is they don't have that kind of witness. the all positions, problems extend far beyond a supposedly shortage of will. over the past decade, india's numerous non b, p or non d b i light bodies have come under serious pressure. corruption has been a ball for line of attack. from the more the government, it is enabled, aged relentless hounding of opposition. lead does one of range of cases, some credible, other less so good. i'll put it all
5:56 am
up, some of the, all of the big stuff here i would use. the result has been used as politicians into a deep reputation of kit for opposition parties and a strong incentive for those not scheme to see the inside of a prison. so just in case switch sides to the b to b and b, the sigh of relief. what's the job the the other ready, the most off is the late fee, though 11th, leasing for the b b and the position i'm the month i've done this, it's a job to flag that yet. for all the many problems adult position faces, the wood up candidates inside would be to me book you want to very, very, some birds doc that they bought. the messaging right now is to say that is the only one that is all part of the height, moody versus who. you know,
5:57 am
that movie is the only on. so to we know the a. back to israel garza, the u. s. and the us this past week, the united nation, special rockport, or on palestine, francesca out benet's a published an extensive report, the title, anatomy of a genocide, which the nephron, yahoo government says it actually rejects. so apparently does the us state department. it's chief spokesman. matthew miller said, of albany is a i can't help. but notice a history of anti semitic comments that she has made. miller needs to do some research. the is really government has been accusing albany is a of anti semitism for years now. conflicting her legitimate criticism of an illegal occupation for a form of hatred. and in the late 202265 scholars. oh, experts on anti semitism endorsed album day's work saying that israel supporters are simply out assignments or some online voices have described matthew miller's
5:58 am
comments as a new, lo for the bite and administration. but it's not like we haven't heard that before . we'll see you next time that the listening post as pain and just closer to recognizing it. alice simeon state prime minister pedro sanchez, is that the forefront calling for israel 2 respects international humanitarian law . what i can tell you is that the situation on the ground, he slid acceptable as an immediate cease firing god. so there's an urgency to stop this terrible war and to open a new phase of stability. peace precipitating the region. the spanish prime minister talks to l. g 0, that is the biggest global electron yet in history, the world's biggest democracy, off its own epic showdown. join me seen of asking jan on a new ballpark cd,
