The installment of Temer and his all-white-male cabinet as a result of the suspension has swiftly opened the door to a conservative revival and austerity campaign that many fear will erode workers’ rights and the flagship social programs of Brazil‘s previous elected center-left governments.

Next month, the head of the state’s prison system will be testifying in a case the Abolitionist Law Center has filed on behalf of Arthur Johnson, who has been in isolation since 1979. While the settlement only applies to Shoatz, it may be an impetus to release other prisoners who have been in solitary confinement for even longer.

The contras were U.S.-funded right-wing paramilitaries that fought to topple the popular Sandinista Revolution in Nicaragua starting in 1979.

85.000 Einsatzkräfte sorgen für die „Sicherheit“ bei den Olympischen Sommerspielen in Rio de Janeiro. Zum ersten Mal finden somit übrigens die Olympischen Sommerspiele in Südamerika statt. Damit wir uns jetzt einmal vorstellen können wie viele Menschen dafür sorgen, dass bei den Olympischen nix böses passiert stellen wir uns ganz einfach vor, dass sich die 47.000 Polizisten aus sämtlichen

(28.3.2016) Bernie Sanders, nur dazu da, links liegengebliebenes, lebenslang verratenes und verkauftes Wählerpotential der Partei „Demokraten“ wieder anzulocken und einzubinden, wird nach seiner leider, leider, leiiider erfolgten Niederlage gegen die von der Nomenklatura designierte Präsidentin leidenschaftlich zur Wahl von Clinton als alternativlose Alternative gegen Trump aufrufen.

Nutzen wird es nichts, immer vorausgesetzt der von keinem außer Trump kontrollierte und an nichts und keinem außer Trump interessierte Trump erreicht die Vereidigung lebend. Ich schreibe das deshalb, weil Donald Trump sogar für die Nomenklatura der U.S.A. eine nicht unerhebliche Gefahr darstellt, weil er einfach macht was er will. (…)

Es wird das Erbe des größten Haufen von Verrätern, Heuchlern und Betrügern in der U.S.-Hegemonie sein, an dem sich alle Unterhaufen von S.P.D., „Bündnis 90/Die Grünen“ oder „die Linke“ messen: die „Demokratische Partei“.

Der Satz, den viele in der Partei so gerne hören wollten, kommt gleich am Anfang. „Hillary Clinton hat das Rennen um die Nominierung für die Präsidentschaftskandidatur der Demokraten gewonnen“, ruft Bernie Sanders. „Ich werde sie unterstützten. Sie muss unsere nächste Präsidentin werden. Hillary Clinton ist weit und breit die beste Kandidatin.“

The new Cabinet members, who took up their posts on Monday, are headed by Imad Mohammad Deeb Khamis.

Deepening neoliberal education reforms, Mexican government officials plan to fire or lay off more than 350 teachers in the southern state of Guerrero, even as they prepare to continue negotiations Monday with striking parents, teacher and activists in the state of Oaxaca who have been protesting similar school reforms for weeks.

Mexican human rights organizations have issued a scathing preliminary report accusing the Mexican government of a series of human rights abuses — including excessive use of force, arbitrary detentions and extrajudicial executions — stemming from the actions of police during operations in the southern state of Oaxaca that have left at least 10 people dead.

„Greenpeace demands justice for Gloria Capitan and other fallen environmental defenders This is a challenge to President Rodrigo Duterte‘s drive against criminality, which shouldn’t be limited to stopping drug-related crimes but should also go after criminals who target activists standing up to powerful interests. Those who defend the environment need to be protected.“

This Israeli policy constitutes collective punishment of hundreds of thousands of innocent people who are suspected of no wrongdoing. Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu declared immediately after the Kiryat Arba attack that a lockdown would be imposed on the attacker’s village, Bani Na’im, that work permits given to members of his clan would be revoked, and that his home was now slated for demolition by explosion. These statements, along with the nature of the restrictions imposed, indicate that this group punishment is an ostentatious act of vengeance taken by Israeli authorities for domestic political reasons, at the expense of Palestinian residents in the Hebron area.

Israeli officials use the division of the West Bank into Areas A, B and C to argue that the occupation has ended in much of the West Bank and that Palestinians are free to manage their own affairs. Yet Israel’s ability to effortlessly disrupt the routine of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians, most of whom live in areas purportedly under the control of the Palestinian Authority, once again proves that Israel still rules the entire West Bank and decides the fate of its residents.
