Focus - Video: Denmark ‘rehabilitates’ returning jihadists
There is no way you can "rehabilitate" a "jihadi"!. They will just go underground. Send them back to "sand land"...Asia-pacific - Sydney café hostage-taker has long criminal record
My dear Barcelona, It is because we live in a democracy and a man is innocent until proved guilty that this man was walking free. This is what I think, if we hold the moral high ground then we run the risk of being killed for most of us do not wish to be forced to believe in a god we are TOLD to believe in under threat of death. We must fight fire with fire (I find it hard to write this) but we must. We run the risk of loseing our humanity, our gifts of tolerance, understanding and love for our fellow man. I live in France and I have Muslim friends and they are not like the terrorists we see on the news they are good, kind and responsible. I do not know the answers.Asia-pacific - Sydney café hostage-taker has long criminal record
What I don't understand about this case is this: This man has multiple judicial charges pending; of sexual assault, accessory to murder of his wife. (Possibly hate crimes for the letters to soldiers families sent...this not clear in the article.) With MULTIPLE charges of such gravity, why was he permitted to be walking free on the streets?Europe - Paris taxi drivers stage protest against Uber
Yes Hollande is sensitive to the fears of the petite bourgeois. But to the working class he turns a deaf ear.Middle east - Israeli airstrike in Syria targeted 'terrorist' weapons delivery
Definition of Sovereign country. Definition of Firm policy.Have any Israel right to airstrike over any country without sufficient causes. This sign (air airstrike)may be treated as a ???.No thanks to Israel.Americas - US Senate approves $1.1 trillion spending bill
This spending bill is a huge giveaway to the ultra wealthy. But, of course, that's who owns the Congress.Europe - Paris taxis set to block traffic in Uber protests

French academics protest 'ruinous' budget cuts No! the title should read "French taxpayers welcome budget cuts."Americas - US Senate report condemns CIA’s brutal interrogation program
Yes its bad day for the European quislings that follow the US line come what may. Still here is the question lots of people are asking. Should the US tortures be put on trial? You see if they are the extensive European involvement in torture program is likely to be revealed.
