Trump had said he “probably won’t do it” in an interview on the “Bernie and Sid” radio show on 77 WABC Radio taped Thursday and aired Friday. Calling the media “so bad” and “so fake,” Trump said: “I want to get it straightened out with the press before I do it.”
(3.4.2018) Contrary to the impression given by senior military officers and government ministers, the military is not permitted to act as it sees fit, nor can Israel determine on its own what is permissible and what is not when dealing with demonstrators. Like all other countries, Israel’s actions are subject to the provisions of international law and the restrictions they impose on the use of weapons, and specifically the use of live fire. The provisions limit its use to instances involving tangible and immediate mortal danger, and only in the absence of any other alternative. Israel cannot simply decide that it is not bound by these rules.
(2.4.2018) The BDS National Committee (BNC) supports calls for an independent, international investigation and is calling for effective accountability measures against Israel, particularly a two-way military embargo.
It finally happened. In the last day or so, major mainstream voices condemned Israel’s shootings of unarmed Palestinian protesters on March 30, in which 17 were killed.

Revolutionäres Sprudeln
Heute möchten bestimmte Journalisten, Intellektuelle, Künstler und Politikerinnen dem Jahr 68 und seiner Revolten gedenken, die sie als einzig und allein von der Sehnsucht nach kapitalistischer Demokratie, nach individualistischen und liberalen Vergnügungen darstellen. Wieder mal geht es ums Verkaufen, um Einschaltquoten, um Literatur zum Arschabwischen und Stimmzettel; tatsächlich geht es darum, das, was sich damals – in einem der subversivsten, gewalttätigsten und offensivsten Jahre der Nachkriegszeit – an Politischem abgespielt hat, zu neutralisieren und außer Reichweite zu bringen. Die Geschichte analysieren, um so tun zu können, als sei sie vorbei, die Begeisterung und die Revolte der einen Generation heraufbeschwören, um die nachfolgende besser einzusperren und zu befrieden.

The investigation would involve alleged crimes committed on Afghan soil but also on the territories of certain ICC member countries that provided stopover points used during the “extraordinary renditions” of presumed terrorists from their place of capture to various detention centers and “black sites” around the world. It appears that crimes committed by the then-Northern Alliance, such as the alleged Death Convoys in which captured Taliban fighters suffocated to death in droves, will fall outside the ICC’s temporal jurisdiction.

(3.April) The case, which has received little attention beyond the local news media, provides a rare glimpse into the cloistered world of privately operated prisons, at a time when the number of state inmates in private facilities is increasing and the Trump administration has indicated that it will expand their use.(…)
