Displacement, AI surveillance - are the Paris 2024 Olympics worth it? | People & Power Documentary

- Опубліковано 20 сер 2024
- The 2024 Summer Olympic Games in Paris are seen by many in France as an international triumph and a showcase for the country.
Officials who sold the $6.9bn project to France’s citizens - already $2bn over budget - also promised that it would bring new housing and economic opportunities to blighted neighbourhoods, spruce up Paris, and clean up the polluted water in the Seine - making it possible to swim in the river again for the first time since the 1920s.
But people have lost their homes, neighbourhoods and parks to construction, and many unhoused migrants are being bussed out to more rural areas, while surveillance techniques put in place for Olympics security threaten civil liberties.
As the games approach, People & Power investigates the benefits and costs of the Parisian Olympics.

Subject: Urgent: Reporting Student Torture During Quota Movement in Bangladesh
Dear Al Jazeera Team,
I hope this message finds you well.
I am writing to bring to your urgent attention a grave incident involving the torture of students by the Bangladesh government during the recent quota movement. Attached to this email is an image showing the injuries sustained by one of the students as a result of this brutality.
The students were peacefully protesting against the government's quota system when they were subjected to severe violence by the authorities. This unwarranted aggression has left many injured and traumatized, and it is imperative that the international community is made aware of these human rights violations.We are seeking your support in shedding light on this situation and bringing global attention to the plight of these students. Your coverage can play a crucial role in pressuring the authorities to take action against those responsible and ensure the safety and rights of the students.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your response.
Best regards,
Please release a news about Bangladesh quota system please
Without even watching this segment, I will throw a bit of "whataboutism", and ask: Was the Qatar Football World Cup in 2022 worth it? The death of 100+ workers building 7 completely new stadiums used today at about 10% of their capacity?
This is what's happening in Bangladesh right now! General students protesting against the quota issue are facing attacks. We urge national and international journalists to bring attention to this pressing issue and cover the ongoing situation comprehensively.
It's amazing that France has no money for social projects but somehow plenty of money for the Olympics.
Double standards and hypocrisy perfectly illustrates in the documentary
Because sadly they care more about profits
Truth they Care more about profits
the city will benefit from those investments. And France spends A LOT on social projects already.
@@Inchard A budget over 10 billion euros for an expected GDP growth of 0.5% during the summer months? Sure a good idea
Why is everyone seeming to be bitching about something? Is it just me, or is this getting out of hand?
I share your views, so it it not just you.
You aré probably privileged
certainly went out of hand. Al Jazeera is complicit to human rights abuses during the Qatar World Cup.
1. Come illegaly to a country
2. Life of social help
3. Complains of no help from the government
4. Repeat
Are those people think dollars is coming from trees?
They do, sadly. Immigrants to Europe always say that they came as people back home talk about how much money they will simply get in the EU. Complete lack of awareness
@@kria9119 After how many years would you lack awareness. If this was the 90s or early 2000s, then sure, but it's 2024, who doesn't know how expensive and tough modern life is in the EU?

@@kria9119 You obviously did not grow up in the streets of Niamey, Khartum or Bobo-Dioulasso...
Since the 08 global meltdown money has been printed thin air, so it's much easier than grown on a tree.
So when the Olympics is over, you can be sure those cameras will remain
what about beijing 2022????
If you are working find yourself sick on the days Israel (the Apartheid government) plays any games.
How dare they tell Russia NOT to come yet invite Israel. Disgusting
Why would anyone call off of work because Israel is participating in games on another continent? The only thing that’s going to change is one’s employment status.
@@houseofdiamonti i doubt they work the same areas. So should they want to protest and happen to be working with them, take 🤧 ill.
I have enjoyed some quality documentary from this channel in the past. This report seems bias, every Olympic cities faced such challenges before, environment, housing, budget etc. France requested 4 foreign country police foreces from UK, Spain, Germany and Qatar for the Olympic security. It'll be nice to see report from that prospective.
Have this channel show us how the Doha world cup stadium was built by cheap labor under the heat? Snd how they were mistreated?
"France requested 4 foreign country police foreces from UK, Spain, Germany and Qatar".. International visitors will be ahppy to have people speaking their language
Good Luck to the Olympic Games and to the people of France. Keep hope and love alive. Let humanity survive 🌈❤️.
Hey please cover Bangladesh quota movement news
1000s of students are getting hurt
1st : there is that much migrants in France because the social state is attractive. No worries. 2nd : the bottom line of the video is that french people should refrain from organizing Olympics - through modernization of the poorest places - because non-french, or "recently french people", are not happy with the works and changes. In which reasonable country do you see migrants imposing their views on locals ? In Qatar maybe, Al Jazeera ? Let's be serious 5 minutes. Showing a little protest of 50 people to pretend there's resentment among the population. I live in Paris and I had to watch Al Jazeera to hear that there's resentment for the first time !
al jazeera is complicit to human rights abuses during the Qatar World Cup lol.
No, I'm not interested and as an Australian I am ashamed of my country for participating in this while France has been heavily involved in supporting Israel.
So you are saying you support the region that is holding hostages from 18 different nations?
@@houseofdiamonti I certainly don't support the nation that has decided to commit the worst crimes of this century. 40 thousand plus no longer here, thousands disabled, grieving, homeless and hungry. You obviously support the evil clown in charge.

Plzz,do focus on Dhaka, Bangladesh..
Five weeks housing is clearly designed to gentrify the streets because of the games.
What is a Japanese person doing in Paris/France ?, anywhere in Japan would be better than France..
This isn't exclusive to these Olympics, it happens in most , if not all host cities. The next summer Olympics are in Los Angeles in 2028 . There's a major homeless population there too and I expect the same thing to happen there. It's so sad. It'd be nice if people could at least get jobs and housing to help with the construction instead of just being pushed out. There has to be a better way.
Why the Afghanistan and Arabic Muslim refugees don't go to QATAR? Leave your like to this question!🤔
Ask this to Europe leaders.tjey sold france already...withing few years .france and London will be history
.😊
Paris is done for but London is still nice @@NgawangPhuntsok-vd3oe
People the Arab world doesn’t accept refugees, even Muslim ones. Because they always bring problems.
sustainability in the heart of everything that we do? reallly? not providing air conditioning to players???
Free 🆓 Filistin 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇧🇩
💥🍉💥🍉💥🍉💥🍉💥
Kleptocratic Mega Projects, protected by the Police State, and financed by Austerity?
What could go wrong?
Olympics lost it's proper charm and meaning decades ago, they are just about show, money no proper sportsmanship anymore 😢😢😢
I have nausea when I hear french language spoken by french
The first "green" summer games ---- "yay."
Justice for dhaka
"...will be more gender balanced..." What exactly does that mean?
Corporate and governmental bs
Has your question been answered yet? 😂😂😂. Today is 29th July.
@@marionfriedenthal7352
No! Maybe you can enlighten me.
@@touchofgrey5372 I don't know myself really because I haven't been following it except in online news. I saw there've been a lot of drag queens in the opening ceremony and I think I scrolled past a headline about a transgender boxer the other day. So gender related participation??
France 🇫🇷 woke up
French hipocrisy
Ban Is-reel from both Olympic & FIFA
No its not worth it
This is a very BIASED documentary.
As everything else on this Islamic state sponsored channel.
plz focus on Bangladesh. Bangladeshi general student are on under attac from Government plz 🥺
Please save Bangladeshi students
Double standards and hypocrisy perfectly illustrated
Qatar official news chanel explaining it's bad to clear 300 illegal migrants squatting in a neighborhood where works are needed for the Olympics... Whereas thousands of asians literally died in Qatar for building the "otherwise useless" stadiums of the 2022 world cup ! We have brains Al Jazeera
geez i'd love having other media outlets expose the hypocrisy and double standards of al jazeera
#saveBdStudents
Thanks for the question - yes they are worth it!
Is Qatar world cup worth the cost??
Plz save Bangladesh University student
Bangladesh quta issu 😓😓😓😓
And hope people remember Qatar Bribing EU presidents for Football World cup
I just love the widely hated Paris Opening. Totally eye opening and mind opening. The purpose of Olympics is to purify The city, and Paris did it. My wives and husband all plan to pay Paris a visit after Olympics together.
No. Wrong country, wrong time. trouble.
Where’s Macron’s husband these days 😉
Idk man..... this is gonna be a sketchy olympics lol
Bangladesh quta issue
Western democracy 🤮
