Uganda is passing a law that would allow thugs to ban any demonstration.

An American journalist who filmed Ugandan thugs attacked an unplanned opposition rally was deported, after being accused of committing journalism without a work permit.

The US also has the unjust policy of prohibiting foreign journalists unless they get special visas. Shame on the US!

The murder of an Afghan woman because she was accused of having an affair demonstrates the cruel misogyny that typically accompanies Islam.

Christianity used to carry similar misogyny, and for US theocratic Christians it still does so to some extent.

On the same day as the "1984 day" protests, the US closed several embassies and consulates in response to a high volume of "chatter". In other words, nothing specific.

No terrorist act has been reported, but they can always say they prevented one.

The US government has been caught using "terror alerts" for political purposes before.

Uri Avnery addresses what will need to be done to remove various groups of Israeli colonists from expropriated West Bank land.

Transgender people in Greece are being systematically imprisoned without criminal charges, along with homeless people, prostitutes, immigrants and people infected with HIV.
