تكذيب لكل ما نشر في وسائل الإعلام

  بسمي وبسم عائلتي- عائلة المرحوم محمد الناصر الشابي بالدهماني -هذا  تكذيب لكل ما نشر في وسائل الإعلام عن حادثة مستشفى جهوي بالكاف لوفاة عمي    رد على مقال اقتحام قسم الاستعجالي بالمستشفى الجهوي بالكاف رسالة مفتوحة إلى السيد وزير الصحة العمومية و السيد وزير الداخلية لقد وجدت الصحف و وسائل الإعلام مادة سهلة و مثيرة لتشد إليها الرأي العام من قبيل "مدينة كذا تحترق أو مدرسة كذا تنهب أو اقتحام مستشفى" و عندما ندقق في الأمر نجد كل هذا باطلا. طلعت علينا وسائل الإعلام الثلاث المرئية و المسموعة و المكتوبة بخبر مفاده أنّ مواطنون أو أهالي مدينة الدهماني تقتحم المستشفى الجهوي بالكاف و تعتدي على من فيه و تخرب معداته، هكذا و بكل بساطة، فمن هو على غير علم بما حدث يتصور أن عصابة خارجة عن القانون هاجمت المستشفى و عاثت فيه فسادا و روّعت و خرّبت و كأن أهالي الدهماني هم بقايا بني هلال أو التاتار. لماذا يتعمّد الإعلام إلى اللجوء إلى هذه السلوكات دون تثبت أو ترو و دون الرجوع إلى المصدر أو حتى زيارة المرحوم و تقديم العزاء و استجلاء الأمر عما حدث دون تهويل أو تضخيم و يكون الإعلام

Media Control and Political Power in democratic societies ?!

By -
Generally perceived as working to inform and enlighten public opinion, media, in western democracies, can also be a propagandistic rhetoric, manipulated by political power. The media is a communication power that could transform the whole society. Media has an incredible degree of influence with respect to shaping thought .This strength can be used constructively by educating people or destructively by misleading them. The West keeps criticizing the media controlled by dictatorships but what about media in democratic societies? How the media should influence the political climate and democratic process in Western democracies and are the media used by the state as propaganda arms in the West? It seems that the supposed role of the media has not been accomplished,  even in western democracies, because of state media control. Accordingly, media's power declines as a democracy becomes more established. The last two decades have seen an unprecedented spread of democracy aroun

Youth Radicalisation and Distrust

Published at Open Government Partnership “ Youth Radicalisation and Distrust” https://www.opengovpartnership.org/trust/youth-radicalisation-and-distrust 7,000 young Tunisians have joined Daesh 1  in Syria, constituting the largest foreign fighters’ group to date (The Soufan Group, 2015). My 22-year-old cousin could have been among them. He explained that while others have taken advantage of the political vacuum of the revolution, “I felt more marginalised”. Since 2012, Tunisia has projected into the public imagination a rhetoric of fear and surveillance to justify the treatment of youth as potential terror suspects. This perception of fear is gradually translating into policies that have further radicalised disaffected youth. An accurate understanding of the factors leading to radicalisation is essential in developing an effective policy response. We need to prevent radicalisation in the first place and address the need for youth to find nonviolent social and political ide

Rappelons le discours de  Thomas Sankara  à Addis Abéba le 29 juillet 1987 Ma réponse à son Excellence Monsieur  Emmanuel Macron , de la  # Tunisie ; Vous dites "Je suis aussi contre l'impérialisme" mais c'était encore un discours du colonisateur monsieur! encore de la francophonie impérialiste? de l’impérialisme français? un discours pour défendre la présence des bases françaises en Afrique? Applaudir les soldats français? ridiculiser des questions pertinentes des étudiants burkinabés? defender le CFA, monnaie d’essence coloniale? blâmer les Africains pour l'esclavage en Libye (blâme deja vu au 18e siècle) pendant que vous financez essentiellement des milices pour arrêter les flux de migrants en mer? la politique de "garder les migrants en Libye à tout prix"! vous êtes aussi criminel que les trafiquants monsieur !!! et parlons de la protection de Blaise COMPAORE? Parlons de soutien aux régimes corrompus? Parlons de la justice? de la dette? parlons des
