This week's show features stories from Japan, Radio Deutsche-Welle, France 24, and Radio Havana Cuba. http://youthspeaksout.net/swr251017.mp3 (29:00) From JAPAN- 97% of new vehicle sales in Norway are electric, with the goal of 100% to be reached soon. In the US tax credits for those purchasing EVs have been stopped, leaving GM and other manufacturers cutting back on production. From GERMANY- A large percentage of international news this week was focused on the ceasefire in Gaza. I thought this piece from Germany covered most of the discussion points. Distribution of food and supplies is restricted to less than half of what was expected. Gazans are returning to almost complete ruins, with water and electrical sources destroyed. Estimated costs to rebuild are $70 billion and will take a decade. An interview with Andrew Gilmour former UN Assistant Secretary-General for Human Rights. He says the scale of the destruction to Gaza is the worst anyone has seen- it was bombed more severely than the combination of Berlin, London, Hamburg, and several other cities combined during WWII. He thinks Israel will impede removing 60 million tons of rubble and may destroy any new construction as they have done in the West Bank. He doubts that there will be any accountability for the war crimes that have taken place in Palestine. From FRANCE- The US military assassinated alleged drug smugglers in the Caribbean for the fifth time this week while Trump said he was authorizing the CIA and considering airstrikes in Venezuela. A discussion on whether these are first steps in regime change. From CUBA- The awarding of the Nobel Peace Prize to Maria Machado was quite controversial, since she supports US intervention in her country. Hamas has rejected any role for Tony Blair in governing Gaza, based on his history on Iraq and Afghanistan.

This week's show features stories from France 24, Radio Deutsche-Welle, Radio Havana Cuba. http://youthspeaksout.net/swr251010.mp3 (29:00) From FRANCE- Tuesday was October 7th and there were commemorations in the Israeli press as well as the international papers. In France the President, currently Macron, appoints the Prime Minister- a month ago Sebastian Lecornu was given the position, after 2 others had failed in the last 12 months, and now he has resigned- this had led to calls for Macron to call snap elections or resign- this is a political crisis talked about in the second press review. Then following Trumps apparently successful first phase of a peace deal in Palestine, the press speculated on whether he would see his dream of a Nobel Peace prize come to pass. In Venezuela there have been large protests against the US military assassinations of boats allegedly transporting drugs in the Caribbean- and President Maduro claimed to have prevented a false flag operation on the US Embassy in Caracas. An interview with Phil Gunson of the International Crisis Group on the conflict between the US and Venezuela. From GERMANY- On Friday all the boats in the Global Sumud Flotilla had been captured by Israeli troops in international waters and the crews taken to prisons in Israel. Many countries represented in the 450 crew members have objected to the Israeli action, and massive protests took place around the world. An interview with journalist and Cambridge lecturer Alina Trabattoni about the protests in Italy, calling for government action to declare Palestinian statehood and charges of genocide against Israel. From CUBA- The UK has announced plans to crackdown even further on protests- another 500 were arrested on terrorism charges on Saturday for carrying signs saying they support Palestine Action.

So here is a conversation about the history of free speech in France, including the story of the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo. In 2015 there were deadly attacks on the staff for publishing caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed. And people in many countries defended the magazine by saying Je Suis Charlie. The US has given Hamas an ultimatum 21 point peace plan that must be accepted in 3 or 4 days. An interview with Fathi Nimer in Ramallah,, a Policy Fellow at the al-Shabaka think tank. He discusses how the proposed peace plan is being viewed in Palestine and what might happen if an agreement is reached or rejected. From GERMANY- As of today, Thursday, Israeli military forces had intercepted dozens of boats that are part of a relief flotilla headed to Gaza. Around 500 people were aboard 40 vessels, and those on the captured boats were taken ashore. Italy had sent a naval warship to protect the passengers but backed off before the Israeli soldiers removed the crews with automatic weapons. Italy had mass demonstrations supporting the flotilla for a week before the seizure, and that night tens of thousands flooded the streets in protest across the country. An interview with journalist and Cambridge lecturer Alina Trabattoni . From CUBA- Trump is negotiating a $20 billion bailout for Argentina. Widespread sanctions were reinstated against Iran at the UN security Council. The Israeli military continues to assault the Gaza Strip while 453 Palestinians have starved to death.
