    From FRANCE- There are large scale protests going on in many countries. There has been a lot of focus on the French student protests which are continuing- maybe because it reminds us of the French protests in 1968 when civil unrest emerged around the planet. We will begin with some massive protests in India, where the Modi government removed millions of people from the voting rolls, allegedly targeting Muslims. The police and military detained and injured thousands of civilians, including many politicians, and blocked social media. Thousands took to the streets in Portugal to rally against soaring rents and house prices, with dozens injured by a violent police crackdown as I put this show together on Thursday. In Colombia thousands of riot police and military attacked crowds protesting a new anti-terror bill and the new right-wing President Espriella. In Brazil students are protesting against Flavio Bolsonaro who received the most votes in the first round of presidential elections last week. France 24 correspondent Jan Onoszko reports from Rio- including protester comments and speculation on why many youth are choosing to follow the right-wing politician

    From JAPAN- A robot arm will begin surveying the 880 tons of nuclear fuel debris in the reactors at the Fukushima nuclear power plant which melted down in 2011- they are hoping to begin cleaning the waste in 2037. The Trump administration is looking to expand nuclear power in the US, including restarting the plant at 3-mile island, site of the worst nuclear accident in US history. Spanish Prime Minister Sanchez has called for a snap election on November 29th as a response to unrest over skyrocketing housing prices. There will be a runoff vote in Brazil on October 25th between Lula da Silva and Flavio Bolsonaro.
    From FRANCE- More on the Brazilian election where Lula and others are complaining about US interference in the electoral process. Then a series of press reviews on the massive student protests in France this week. An estimated 266,000 high school students marched in the streets and were met with increasing clashes with police. The main objective was to update dilapidated school buildings especially in poorer areas, more staff, and to limit class sizes to 36. By Thursday parents and union members had joined the demonstrations to protect the students- In Spain and Belgium students have also begun protests. An editorial on where the students rage comes from. The question of whether Netanyahu and the Israeli state were told of the Hamas plans to attack 10 days in advance and did nothing to prepare for the horrible massacre on October 7th.
    From CUBA- The US Coast Guard intercepted an oil tanker in the Caribbean trying to bring fuel to Cuba. The lack of fuel continues to plague all aspects of life in Cuba, including its ability to broadcast their news. The Mexican ruling Morena party stated it will maintain support for the Cuban people in the face of the energy blockade imposed by the US- Mexican President Sheinbaum spoke out at the UN General Assembly expressing solidarity with Cuba. President Sheinbaum also warned about the presence of right-wing groups within the US administration which intend to change the government of Mexico. Police in the UK arrested 6 people in the area of a Royal Air Force Base that had been used by the US military to bomb Iran, implying that they were terrorists, then let them out on bail.

    From GERMANY- As the US/Canada trade war escalates, a trade ban on numerous products from Canada has come into effect. Trump says that Canada will come and apologize and remove their retaliatory tariffs. An interview with Lawrence Herman, an international trade lawyer from Canada. He says Canada will not come back and say they are sorry. Canada sends about 70% of its exports to the US but many of the materials and components in those products are from US sources- thus an economic slowdown in the states. Canada has been cementing new trade relations with the European Union. Lawrence says Canada will not become a member of the EU as was recently speculated. He says trade with the US will not end, but there will be many difficulties until Trump leaves office.
    From JAPAN- Tokyo experienced a record breaking 31 consecutive days of rain. Japan continues to run nuclear power plants but has no place to permanently store the waste. Trump says that South Korea is investing in 8 new nuclear power plants in the US as well as an LPG pipeline in Alaska- South Korea denies agreeing to the pipeline. At the UN General Assembly North Korea insisted on its right to remain a nuclear armed state. UN Secretary General Guterres is concerned over the lack of progress in nuclear disarmament. Also at the UN the Nepalese PM blamed the devastating floods on global warming which his country is not responsible for.
    From CUBA- Last weekend at the UN, the Cuban FM denounced multi-dimension hostilities from the US. On Tuesday the US issued new regulations and sanctions to further strangle the nation and people of Cuba. China reaffirmed its strong support for Cuba. British Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband addressed critics of the Labour policy on the plight of Palestinians and announced sanctions on Israeli settlements- Ed however failed to support those charged with terrorism for carrying signs expressing support for Palestine Action.

    "The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum - even encourage the more critical and dissident views. That gives people the sense that there's free thinking going on, while all the time the presuppositions of the system are being reinforced by the limits put on the range of the debate.."

Israeli PM Netanyahu has gone after the award winning Israeli directors of a documentary called Naza about systematic killings in Gaza- Netanyahu says he will revoke their citizenship. The OSCE, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, which monitors elections around the world, has not been invited to the US midterm elections this November.

    From GERMANY- Last Friday the Trump administration announced plans to take about 20% of Venezuelan oil reserves or 65 billion barrels. John Feeley is a former US Ambassador to Panama and currently Executive Director of Media Integrity Of The Americas. He said that the takeover was a big announcement that is basically an exaggeration to please the MAGA supporters and distract from the tension about fuel prices.

Feeley says that the Venezuelan people will be the losers in whatever comes to pass from these announcements.
    From FRANCE- Press reviews have returned to France 24 and here is one about Alejandro Betancourt the notoriously corrupt oil baron swinging the oil deal for the US in Venezuela.

    From FRANCE- A devastating mudslide and floods moved through the Nepal and Tibet regions destroying many villages and killing hundreds- many countries have sent aid and rescue teams. Leela Jacinto talks about the geology of the region and the melting glaciers that triggered the events- glaciers are melting at record levels around the planet, largely a result of climate warming. Parts of Central America are experiencing extreme drought, exacerbated by the changing weather patterns brought on by an unusual El Nino. Noga Tarnopolsky talks about how the upcoming Israeli elections are influencing extremist settler attacks in the occupied West Bank- also Israeli Minister of National Security Ben-Gvir called for the wanton killing of 30-40 Palestinians each night in Gaza to raise the level of terror and keep Netanyahu in power.
