Turkey planted 11 million trees in November as a project for National Forestation Day. Checking them suggests that around 10 million of them have already died from lack of water.

The conman's lawyers told the Senate that he is allowed to do anything whatsoever in order to win the next election.

Several Swedish media sites condemned Chinese attempts to repress European journalists, editors and diplomats, and asked the Swedish government to push harder against China.

Sweden's power to do this is limited, but it could give this more priority and the Chinese market less. The EU could require foreign manufacturers to hand over the circuit diagrams and source code for security analysis.

India's repression of dissent knows no bounds. The leaders of a primary school face various criminal charges for a school play that included "slurs" against Modi and criticized the discriminatory immigration law.

A Hinduismist fanatic shot marchers who were peacefully protesting against that law. He chose the date and time to honor the 1948 murder of Gandhi by another Hinduismist.

I predict that Modi's supporters will praise the shooter try to get charges against him dropped, just as Israel's right-wing extremists lionize the fanatic that assassinated Prime Minister Rabin in 1995.
