Perpetrators of hate crimes often take their cues from what they hear in the media.
But this doesn’t absolve politicians who have been fueling such hatefulness.Perpetrators of hate crimes often take their cues from what they hear in the media. And the recent inclination of some politicians to use inflammatory rhetoric is contributing to a climate of hate and fear.Carly Fiorina continues to allege, for example, that Planned Parenthood is selling body parts of fetuses.Although the claim has been proven baseless, it’s been repeated not only by Fiorina but also by other candidates. Mike Huckabee calls it “sickening” that “we give these butchers money to harvest human organs.”Even in the wake of Friday’s Colorado shootings, Donald Trump referred to videos “with some of these people from Planned Parenthood talking about it like you’re selling parts to a car.”Some candidates are also fomenting animus toward Muslims.Huckabee says he’d “like for Barack Obama to resign if he’s not going to protect America and instead protect the image of Islam.”And Trump not only fails to condemn violence he provokes but finds excuses for it.Ben Carson says allowing Syrian refugees into the United States is analogous to exposing a neighborhood to a “rabid dog.” Last September Carson said he “would not advocate that we put a Muslim in charge of this nation.”Since the attacks that killed 130 people in Paris earlier this month, Trump has advocated registering all Muslims in the United States and putting American mosques under surveillance.
Reporters Without Borders (RSF) condemns the targeted killing of national radio and TV journalist Hindiya Mohamed in Mogadishu today.Mohamed, who worked for Radio Mogadishu and Somali National TV, was badly wounded by a bomb planted in her car and died from her injuries in Madina Hospital a few hours later.No organization has claimed the bombing but it had all the hallmarks of an operation by the Islamist rebel militia Al Shabaab. This group had already targeted journalists from the national media of the Somali State against which it is fighting.“We are appalled to learn of yet another journalist’s death in Somalia,” said Cléa Kahn-Sriber, the head of RSF’s Africa desk. “The government must do everything possible to arrest those responsible for such attacks and bring them to justice. The impunity reigning in Somalia just encourages murders of this kind. Our thoughts are with Hindiya Mohamed’s family,especially her children, which has already suffered so much.”Mohamed’s husband, Liban Ali Nur, a journalist who also worked for national television, was killed in a suicide bombing in September 2012 at The Village, a Mogadishu restaurant frequented by media personnel. The bombing was claimed by Al Shabaab at the time, which said it had intended to kill journalists.Mohamed is the 38th journalist to be killed in connection with their work in Somalia since 2010. Ranked 172nd out of 180 countries in the 2015 Reporters Without Borders press freedom index, Somalia is Africa’s deadliest country for media personnel.
Yet Hilary Benn’s speech at the end of the Syria debate on Wednesday night was politically elevating all the same. It was riveting as he delivered it in real time on the night. It was still compelling when replayed in the cold light of morning. It was calm and without pomposity. And over the allotted 15 minutes it led unerringly to a climactic argument – that the right thing to do in Syria is to stand up to Islamic State’s fascism.
{The load he dropped, while not bombastic, will soon enough be discovered to be warmed over horse droppings from prancing too hard to show he is not a softy. Common and uncommon good sense lose again – lives will be lost needlessly and terrorism will gain new recruits.}
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6HJuiH181EThe 3-minute video appears to have been filmed from a vehicle stopped at the checkpoint. At the beginning, a man in civilian clothes can be seen speaking to the girl next to a white truck. Israeli soldiers are standing nearby and giving orders to others.The girl is not restrained by the soldiers and walks toward the cab of the white truck. At 1:30, one of the soldiers throws what appears to be a knife onto the ground.The girl, with her arms raised near her chest, trembles. The soldier then appears to order her to bend down and pick up the knife.She kneels down and picks it up, and then appears to talk to the soldier as she holds it. As she kneels, a second soldier aims his weapon at her.A third soldier then approaches and leads her away with her hands behind her back.As with other similar incidents, the video has fueled widespread suspicions that many of the alleged stabbing attempts in which Palestinians were killed involved the planting of evidence.
Donald Trump took a break from demanding that America kill children, mistreating people with disabilities, and re-arranging photos of himself on his desk to continue pushing a fourth-hand 9/11 NJ “cheering” narrative that has now been debunked and refuted multiple times. But because Trump is a dangerous snake oil salesman who remains on top of the Republican presidential nominee tire fire, it’s important to make it abundantly clear when Trump’s particular brand of bigoted racism lapses into outright fantasy.
Ukip sympathies in Oldham carry a note of wounded expropriation. A refrain is that politics no longer belongs to “people from round here”. Hopes that Corbynism might be the adhesive reconnecting a dislocated core to the party seem misplaced. It feels more like a catalyst for decline, another iteration of tin-eared disregard for local sensibilities – distinct from Blairism only in the sense that they are opposite sides of one Islington coin.Labour MPs report similar problems across the north of England. A relationship of long estrangement is reaching closure. People cared about Lab our when they thought the feeling was mutual. Now they are over it and Corbyn isn’t winning them back.“He’s an idiot,” says one middle-aged lady in Royton, outside Oldham town centre. Asked to explain what prompts that view she shrugs. “It’s all the things he comes out with. He needs to get his act together.”
Suu Kyi has reportedly met Parliament Speaker Shwe Mann and other important powerbrokers several times since the election.November’s election was a landmark vote for many reasons. Since 2011, Myanmar – which used to be known as Burma – has transitioned towards democracy following more than five decades of military rule.Although her party won 1990 general electionf, the military ignored the result and Suu Kyi was kept under house arrest for almost 15 years.Despite fears that the military may once again ignore the NLD’s win, both Thein Sein and General Hlaing have congratulated Suu Kyi on the poll victory and promised to respect the result.
The Centre for Genetics and Society (CGS) and the activist group Friends of the Earth issued the report a day before a major international meeting in Washington to discuss the ethical and policy issues surrounding the technology.A technological innovation that can strategically edit out specific stretches of DNA could ultimately lead to the genetic modification of children, and should be halted before it starts being used, they argued.”Like so many powerful new technologies, gene editing holds potential for both great benefit and great harm,” an open letter published by the groups said.”The implementation of heritable human genetic modification — often referred to as the creation of ‘genetically modified humans’ or ‘designer babies’ — could irrevocably alter the nature of the human species and society.”Gene editing may hold some promise for somatic gene therapy (aimed at treating impaired tissues in a fully formed person).”However, there is no medical justification for modifying human embryos or gametes in an effort to alter the genes of a future child.”
Unlike what many Muslims and the liberal western elite emphasize, contemporary terrorism undoubtedly has a religious element to it. It is frankly disingenuous to deny this reality. It is also futile, however, to judge Islam. Islam is not an entity, a specific institution, or a state.Like other religions, Islam is not what is written in texts, but what people opt to apply in their life.Radicals have simply resurrected older interpretations of Islamic texts and twisted such concepts in cynical farcical ways to validate their gruesome actions. Their behavior is actually a reflection of the broader cultural suicide of the Muslim world, and not on the Muslim faith per se.
Flynn: First we went to Afghanistan, where al-Qaida was based. Then we went into Iraq. Instead of asking ourselves why the phenomenon of terror occurred, we were looking for locations. This is a major lesson we must learn in order not to make the same mistakes again.
SPIEGEL ONLINE: The Islamic State wouldn’t be where it is now without the fall of Baghdad. Do you regret …
Flynn: … yes, absolutely …
SPIEGEL ONLINE: … the Iraq war?
Flynn: It was huge error. As brutal as Saddam Hussein was, it was a mistake to just eliminate him. The same is true for Moammar Gadhafi and for Libya, which is now a failed state. The historic lesson is that it was a strategic failure to go into Iraq. History will not be and should not be kind with that decision.
