Desde anteayer, les dije que la agenda del gobierno dominicano ante la visita de Marco Rubio tendría como tema fundamental Haití. Luis Abinader tiene cuatro años viajando, yendo a la ONU y a cualquier espacio posible para plantear el drama haitiano y el impacto de ese drama en la República Dominicana. En un primer momento el abordaje era por el costo para el estado dominicano de la masiva migración haitiana que busca simplemente sobrevivir. Ahora se suman las aprehensiones válidas de que Haití exporte además de su pobreza su violencia encarnada en las bandas armadas, algunas de las cuales operan a escasos kilometros de RD como es el caso de la 400 Mawozo en Croix de Bouquets y Fond Parisien. Pero, una negociación que es lo que se espera de la visita del secretario de EStado es doble vía. Rubio busca y Abinader o el gobierno dominicano. La sorpresa de la jornada es que ayer el presidente dominicano adelantara que en la agenda de Rubio, están las tierras raras. Tan raras como su nombre las tierras ahora famosas son el gran poder que tiene china. En los principios de la era industrial los países se medían por la producción de acero. Inglaterra que tenía un enorme almacen mundial gracias a su imperio en el que no se ponía el sol y luego, Alemania, la antigua URSS y EStados Unidos con recursos propios controlaban la producción mundial de acero. Aunque no ha dejado de ser relevante el acero, del que China no tenía ni un gramo no es la materia prima más importante. Ahora son las tierras raras de las que China controla el 60% de las reservas mundiales. El presidente Trump está interesado en Groenlandia porque hay tierras raras y quiere un acuerdo con Ucrania si le dan acceso a tierras raras. Quiere que Canadá sea un estado de la unión americana porque tiene tierras raras. Las tierras raras son vitales para la alta tecnología que busca controlar EStados Unidos y por ahora están en manos de países que están lejos Washington. Que bueno que hay un chin de tierras raras en Barahona, ojalá y permitan una buena negociacion .

Coup de tonnerre dans la campagne présidentielle américaine. La pression était vraisemblablement devenue trop forte sur les épaules de Joe Biden, affaibli par son état physique et cognitif : il a fini par céder à quatre mois de l'élection. Immédiatement après son retrait, Joe Biden a apporté son soutien à sa colistière et vice-présidente, Kamala Harris, mais selon notre envoyé spécial permanent à Washington, Guillaume Naudin, « ce n'est certainement pas à Joe Biden de désigner qui va lui succéder ». Le parti promet une procédure « transparente » pour désigner un candidat. C'est d'ailleurs ce que demande Barack Obama, qui n'a pas cité le nom de Kamala Harris dans le communiqué qui rend hommage à Joe Biden.Pour l'instant, la seule candidate déclarée est l'actuelle vice-présidente et, d'après Guillaume Naudin, « elle se dit déterminée à mériter et à remporter la nomination de son parti ». Selon la presse, elle a passé la journée de dimanche (21 juillet 2024) à discuter avec les membres démocrates du Congrès et les responsables du parti et autres gouverneurs pour obtenir leur soutien. « Ils sont plus d'une centaine à la soutenir officiellement, y compris, des gens dont on connaît les ambitions nationales comme le gouverneur de Californie Gavin Newsom, ou celui de la Pennsylvanie Josh Shapiro », ajoute Guillaume Naudin.De leur côté, les républicains se préparent à l'éventuelle nomination de Kamala Harris et ont renforcé leurs attaques contre la vice-présidente. « Dans une publicité récente, ils expliquaient que voter Biden, c'était avoir finalement Harris, dont ils soulignent l'incompétence depuis qu'elle a été élue », explique Guillaume Naudin. Le parti demande même le remboursement des frais engagés pour dépeindre Joe Biden « en vieillard sénile et incompétent ». Sans lui, c'est désormais Donald Trump, 78 ans, qui reprend le titre de plus vieux candidat à la présidence de l'histoire des États-Unis.Les démocrates lèvent 47 millions de dollars en 24 heuresLes finances sont au cœur des campagnes électorales aux États-Unis. Joe Biden avait été lâché par de grands donateurs d'Hollywood comme le cofondateur de Netflix, Reed Hastings ou encore la petite-fille de Walt Disney, Abigail. Mais d'après Jérémy Ghez, professeur associé d'économies et d'affaires internationales à HEC Paris, interrogé sur RFI, avec l'annonce du retrait de Joe Biden, « le clan démocrate a réalisé une levée de fonds extraordinaire de 47 millions de dollars en 24 heures ! ». Cela montre un engouement, non seulement de la part de la base qui peut contribuer à ces fonds, mais aussi des grands donateurs. Ils attendaient cette rupture de la part des démocrates pour qu'ils regagnent un peu de dynamisme. D'après Jérémy Ghez, ces fonds rassemblent les petits donateurs, mais aussi les grands donateurs « qui vont regarder Kamala Harris avec un œil interrogateur et suivre ce que le parti démocrate peut incarner en 2024. » Il ajoute que cette dernière est la grande favorite pour prendre le flambeau de Joe Biden, car « politiquement, cela serait diablement compliqué pour les démocrates de sauter le tour de Kamala Harris ».Une annonce largement commentée dans la presseSelon le New York Times, pour Joe Biden se retirer « est une façon de sauver la face ». Le journal cite plusieurs noms comme Woodrow Wilson, Franklin Roosevelt ou encore Ronald Reagan qui se sont accrochés « à leurs positions dorées ». Même si le journal aurait espéré que Joe Biden jette l'éponge plus tôt, il a eu le courage de laisser sa place et « c'est le plus important ». Le Washington Post insiste aussi sur la responsabilité de Joe Biden. Le président « a une certaine conscience de soi qui fait trop souvent défaut dans la politique américaine. » Pour le Boston Globe même son de cloche : « Joe Biden a fait passer le pays avant son ego » et cela « conclut sa carrière politique avec un exemple historique d'altruisme ».Certains quotidiens se questionnent sur la capacité de Joe Biden à exercer et appellent à sa démission. Le New York Post, soutient de Donald Trump, est exaspéré par l'actuel président : « S'il avait le moindre respect pour la fonction qu'il occupe, pour le peuple américain, pour notre république ou pour lui-même, Joe Biden démissionnerait immédiatement de la présidence. » Le très conservateur Washington Times reprend les attaques des détracteurs du président en disant que ce dernier « s'accroche aux codes nucléaires » en refusant de démissionner. Toutefois pour le Los Angeles Times, l'argument de la démission est fallacieux « car cela ne signifie pas qu'il n'est pas en mesure de terminer son mandat ». Plutôt que de démissionner, Joe Biden « a tenu sa promesse de 2020 : être un pont vers une jeune génération de dirigeants démocrates. »La presse américaine se questionne également sur le passage de flambeau. USA Today s'interroge : « Les démocrates ont-ils oublié à quel point Kamala Harris a été extrêmement impopulaire en tant que vice-présidente ? ». Le Washington Post estime que Kamala Harris est la principale prétendante à l'investiture. Le journal invite le camp démocrate à ouvrir un vrai débat pour choisir son ou sa candidate, même si Kamala Harris part « grande favorite ». Enfin, New York Times titre « Kamala Harris ou l'échec ». Selon le journal, c'est la seule option pour remplacer Joe Biden car « la convention nationale démocrate n'est pas le moment de contester sa capacité à prendre la relève. Le moment pour le faire, c'était en 2020. »Haïti, le gang « 400 Mawozo » a mit le feu à un commissariat de GanthierD'après Le Nouvelliste, l'attaque a été lancée dimanche matin (21 juillet 2024). La Police nationale d'Haïti affronte cette organisation depuis jeudi 18 uillet 2024 à la Croix-des-Bouquets situé au sud-est de Port-au-Prince. Une partie de la population s'est enfuie vers Fonds-Parisien jusqu'en fin d'après-midi (21 juillet 2024). Un bilan partiel fait état d'un mort. Cette attaque intervient alors que se déroulent aujourd'hui (22 juillet 2024) les examens de 9e année fondamentale, un examen que doivent passer les écoliers haïtiens. Ces derniers ont donc dû passer les épreuves à Fonds-Parisien. Le Nouvelliste raconte également que l'exécutif a publié un décret qui établit l'état d'urgence dans 14 communes d'Haïti, mais que Ganthier ne fait pas partie de la liste.Le chef des opérations spéciales de la police de Mexico tuéQuand les secours sont arrivés dans ce quartier périphérique de la capitale mexicaine, c'était trop tard, raconte El Sol de Mexico, Milton Figueroa était déjà mort. Il a reçu une rafale de balles alors qu'il faisait des courses avec sa famille dans son quartier, précise le journal. Une vidéo de son assassinat circule sur les réseaux sociaux, filmée par une caméra de vidéosurveillance. On distingue un homme s'approcher, sortir un fusil de sa veste et tirer presque à bout portant dans le dos du policier avant de s'enfuir en courant. La victime de 40 ans était en charge des missions de renseignement contre le crime organisé. Le chef de la sécurité citoyenne a assuré qu'il travaillerait en collaboration avec la police de Mexico pour retrouver les responsables de cette « attaque lâche », selon La Jornada.Le Journal de la 1èreLa Chambre de commerce et d'industrie des îles de Guadeloupe a présenté vendredi dernier son « service d'aide aux entreprises en difficulté ».
The small Caribbean nation of Haiti has seen a surge in gang violence over the past few years. According to the Global Organized Crime Index, there is a high level of mafia-style groups (8.5 out of 10). These gangs have captured large swathes of the economy. With names like G-Pep, 400 Mawozo, Baz Pilate, and G9, these gangs compete for control, leading this conflict to be described as the "world's most dangerous gang war".Haiti has the highest levels of criminality in the Caribbean. Arms trafficking, human trafficking, cocaine trafficking, and financial crimes are all over 7.5 out of 10. More troubling still is that its resilience score is very low - at 2.46 out of 10, which places Haiti at 174 out of 193 countries.In this episode we will discuss the criminal governance of the gangs, and how difficult it is for civil society to operate in the country.Presenter: Thin Lei WinGuest: Gerson Nozea, the Country Director for Rapha International Haiti, an organisation which aims to prevent the trafficking and sexual exploitation of children.Links:Haiti Country Profile(GI Paper) Gangs of Haiti: Expansion, power and an escalating crisis(GI paper) Gang control and security vacuums: Assessing gender-based violence in Cité Soleil, Haiti(GI Blog) New sanctions target Haiti gangstersRapha International HaitiThe Global Organized Crime IndexGlobal Initiative Against Transnational Organized CrimeAdditional Linkshttps://haitiantimes.com/gangs-in-haiti-a-deeper-look/https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/haiti-gang-violence-crisis-g9-g-pep-1234871794/https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/sep/21/haiti-jimmy-barbecue-cherizier-overthrow-prime-minister-ariel-henryhttps://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/nov/28/haiti-gangs-food-access-farming

Senate Unanimously Passes Uyghur Forced Labor Bill https://dailycaller.com/2021/12/16/senate-passes-uyghur-forced-labor-bill-marco-rubio/ After a series of false starts and delays, the Senate passed the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act by voice vote Thursday. The bill, sponsored by Republican Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, targets slave labor in Xinjiang and surrounding provinces, where China is conducting a genocide of the Uyghur people. It passedthe House by voice vote Tuesday and is expected to be signed into law by President Joe Biden. The Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act creates a “rebuttable presumption” that goods produced in Xinjiang or by certain listed Chinese business entities are produced by the forced labor of Uyghurs or other ethnic minorities. Companies may continue to import products from Xinjiang if they provide “clear and convincing evidence” to the Commissioner of Customs and Border Protection that their supply chains do not include forced labor. The bill's passage unlocks three votes to confirm Biden nominees to key State Department positions. Rubio and Democratic Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy agreed that the Republican would drop his objections to Nicholas Burns, nominated to be Ambassador to China, Ramin Toloui, nominated to be Assistant Secretary of State, and Rashad Hussain, nominated to be Ambassador for International Religious Freedom, in exchange for Murphy's lack of objection to the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act. Glenn Loury Says America is Not White Supremacist Play audio: 0:00-1:02 Why are people flocking here from all over the world? Because it's so oppressive and white supremacist? Supreme Court Sends Texas Heartbeat Law Back to Appeals Court A U.S. Supreme Court decision Thursday dealt another blow to the Texas abortion industry by sending its lawsuit against the state heartbeat law back to a federal appeals court that previously allowed the legislation to go into effect. The Associated Press reports the pro-abortion groups suing to overturn the pro-life law wanted the justices to send their lawsuit back to U.S. District Judge Robert Pitman, who blocked the law in October. On Thursday, however, Justice Neil Gorsuch signed an order sending the case to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals instead, according to the report. Back in October, the Fifth Circuit rejected Pitman's ruling just a few days after he issued it and allowed the law to go into effect again. Pro-life leaders estimate that the heartbeat law, which bans abortions once an unborn baby's heartbeat is detectable, about six weeks of pregnancy, has saved thousands of babies' lives since it went into effect Sept. 1. The law includes a unique private enforcement mechanism that allows private individuals to sue abortionists and those who “aid and abet” in abortions in violation of the law. It is this provision that has been the main focus of the legal dispute thus far. Earlier this month, the Supreme Court threw out a lawsuit from President Joe Biden and rejected the Texas pro-abortion groups' request to temporarily block the law while their legal challenge continues through the courts. While the high court ruled that the Texas abortion businesses may continue with their lawsuit, it also watered down their case by allowing them to sue state licensing officials but not the state judges and clerks who are charged with handling lawsuits spurred by the law. Now, the Supreme Court is sending the case back to the Fifth Circuit for consideration, and abortion activists are losing hope — good news for the future of unborn babies in Texas. “The Supreme Court left only a small sliver of our case intact, and it's clear that this part of the case will not block vigilante lawsuits from being filed,” Marc Hearron, a lawyer with the Center for Reproductive Rights, told the AP. “It's also clear that Texas is determined to stop the plaintiffs from getting any relief in even the sliver of the case that is left.” Erwin Chemerinsky, dean of the University of California Berkeley School of Law, said he also was “stunned” that the Supreme Court allowed the law to remain in effect even though it violates Roe v. Wade. “The court's refusal to block the blatantly unconstitutional Texas law is also a strong signal that it is poised to overturn Roe v. Wade,” Chemerinsky wrote this week at the Los Angeles Times. Texas abortion businesses are admitting a likely defeat as well. They essentially have no way to stop Texas citizens and pro-life groups from filing lawsuits against them, abortionists and abortion center staff who help abort unborn babies in violation the law. And if the law remains in effect much longer, many Texas abortion businesses may close. According to the Texas Tribune: Amy Hagstrom Miller, president of Whole Woman's Health, which operates four clinics in Texas and is the lead plaintiff in the providers' lawsuit, warned last week that the current volume of services is not enough to keep clinics open in the long term. “Staying open is not sustainable if this ban stays in effect much longer,” Hagstrom Miller said. “We are grateful for the donors and foundations and folks who have been supporting us in the interim … but the future looks bleak if we can't get some justice here.” Ultimately, the abortion businesses' legal challenge appears to be “doomed,” the report concluded. And that's great news for unborn babies. A new study found that, in just the first month of the law, abortions in Texas went down 50 percent. Since then, Texas abortion facility directors have reported even bigger drops in their abortion numbers, as high as 80 percent compared to the previous year, according to the Texas Tribune. The heartbeat law has the potential to save tens of thousands of unborn babies from abortion every year. In 2020, about 54,000 unborn babies were aborted in Texas, and about 85 percent happened after six weeks of pregnancy, according to state health statistics. Remaining missionaries kidnapped in Haiti by gang released https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/remaining-missionaries-kidnapped-haiti-gang-released-rcna9010?fbclid=IwAR0acBi61sVy19OtPu-G_kaiJdEj84zWLnILglQvByTNWRW3jF6WHLgd1kw A Haitian gang has released the remaining 12 hostages they had abducted — more than two months after their kidnapping, the Ohio-based religious group they work with announced Thursday. "We glorify God for answered prayer—the remaining twelve hostages are FREE! Join us in praising God that all seventeen of our loved ones are now safe," said a statement from Christian Aid Ministries. "Thank you for your fervent prayers throughout the past two months. We hope to provide more information as we are able." Haiti National Police Spokesman Gary Desrosiers also confirmed to NBC News that the hostages had been found safe, but would not say where they had been taken. Seventeen people working with the group were kidnapped in October by the 400 Mawozo gang, which controls the Ganthier commune in the suburb of Port-au-Prince where the missionaries were taken. Christian Aid Ministries had previously said that those who were kidnapped were sixteen U.S citizens and one Canadian citizen — six men, six women, and five children. The missionaries were returning from an orphanage, an hour and a half from Christian Aid Ministries Haiti base and often visited by their staff, when they were taken. The group, based in Millersburg, Ohio, repeatedly called for supporters to fast and pray for the safe release of the hostages, at one point earlier this month encouraging Christians to fast for three days. In November, two of the missionaries were released, and another three were freed earlier this month Fight Laugh Feast Magazine DNB Our Fight Laugh Feast Magazine is a quarterly issue that packs a punch like a 21 year Balvenie, no ice.

They essentially have no way to stop Texas citizens and pro-life groups from filing lawsuits against them, abortionists and abortion center staff who help abort unborn babies in violation the law. And if the law remains in effect much longer, many Texas abortion businesses may close. According to the Texas Tribune: Amy Hagstrom Miller, president of Whole Woman's Health, which operates four clinics in Texas and is the lead plaintiff in the providers' lawsuit, warned last week that the current volume of services is not enough to keep clinics open in the long term. “Staying open is not sustainable if this ban stays in effect much longer,” Hagstrom Miller said. “We are grateful for the donors and foundations and folks who have been supporting us in the interim … but the future looks bleak if we can't get some justice here.” Ultimately, the abortion businesses' legal challenge appears to be “doomed,” the report concluded. And that's great news for unborn babies. A new study found that, in just the first month of the law, abortions in Texas went down 50 percent. Since then, Texas abortion facility directors have reported even bigger drops in their abortion numbers, as high as 80 percent compared to the previous year, according to the Texas Tribune. The heartbeat law has the potential to save tens of thousands of unborn babies from abortion every year. In 2020, about 54,000 unborn babies were aborted in Texas, and about 85 percent happened after six weeks of pregnancy, according to state health statistics. Remaining missionaries kidnapped in Haiti by gang released https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/remaining-missionaries-kidnapped-haiti-gang-released-rcna9010?fbclid=IwAR0acBi61sVy19OtPu-G_kaiJdEj84zWLnILglQvByTNWRW3jF6WHLgd1kw A Haitian gang has released the remaining 12 hostages they had abducted — more than two months after their kidnapping, the Ohio-based religious group they work with announced Thursday. "We glorify God for answered prayer—the remaining twelve hostages are FREE! Join us in praising God that all seventeen of our loved ones are now safe," said a statement from Christian Aid Ministries. "Thank you for your fervent prayers throughout the past two months. We hope to provide more information as we are able." Haiti National Police Spokesman Gary Desrosiers also confirmed to NBC News that the hostages had been found safe, but would not say where they had been taken. Seventeen people working with the group were kidnapped in October by the 400 Mawozo gang, which controls the Ganthier commune in the suburb of Port-au-Prince where the missionaries were taken. Christian Aid Ministries had previously said that those who were kidnapped were sixteen U.S citizens and one Canadian citizen — six men, six women, and five children. The missionaries were returning from an orphanage, an hour and a half from Christian Aid Ministries Haiti base and often visited by their staff, when they were taken. The group, based in Millersburg, Ohio, repeatedly called for supporters to fast and pray for the safe release of the hostages, at one point earlier this month encouraging Christians to fast for three days. In November, two of the missionaries were released, and another three were freed earlier this month Fight Laugh Feast Magazine DNB Our Fight Laugh Feast Magazine is a quarterly issue that packs a punch like a 21 year Balvenie, no ice.

Two major airline CEOs question effectiveness of mask mandates on planes https://nypost.com/2021/12/16/two-airline-ceos-question-need-for-mask-mandates-on-planes/ The chief executive officers of two major airlines have questioned the need for mask mandates on planes — insisting that face coverings “don't add much” to the safety of flying amid the pandemic. CEO of Southwest Airlines, Gary Kelly, Play Audio “I concur,” Doug Parker, the head of the country's largest airline, American Airlines, added. “An aircraft is the safest place you can be. It's true of all of our aircraft — they all have the same HEPA filters and airflow.” Both airline chiefs insisted that the high-quality air filters on their planes bring in new air and reduce the spread of COVID-19.

Haitian police say kidnappers have released all the remaining missionaries they held from an Ohio-based missionary group Christian Aid Ministries. The notorious Haitian gang 400 Mawozo had seized 17 members of the group exactly two months ago. And Amazon has officially launched its smart speaker, Alexa, in Arabic. The service is now available in Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. But creating smart speakers that can understand Arabic has its own set of challenges. Plus, how are international students dealing with COVID-19 shutdowns at US universities? New York University, which has the largest population of international students in the country, just canceled almost all in-person gatherings and events and have mandated booster shots for all students.

Trainiere dein Hörverstehen mit den Nachrichten der Deutschen Welle von Montag – als Text und als verständlich gesprochene Audio-Datei.Geländewagen rast in Weihnachtsparade - mindestens fünf Tote In Waukesha, einem Vorort der Großstadt Milwaukee im US-Bundesstaat Wisconsin, ist ein roter Geländewagen in eine vorweihnachtliche Parade gerast. Eine Live-Übertragung zeigte, wie das Fahrzeug Absperrungen durchbrach und von hinten auf den Umzug zusteuerte. Nach Angaben der Polizei wurden mindestens fünf Menschen getötet. Außerdem gibt es mehr als 40 Verletzte. Unter den Opfern sollen viele Kinder sein. Polizisten stellten wenig später das verdächtige Fahrzeug sicher und nahmen eine Person in Gewahrsam. Die Hintergründe des Vorfalls seien noch unklar, hieß es weiter. Ultrakonservativer Kandidat Kast führt bei Präsidentenwahl in Chile Bei der Präsidentschaftswahl in Chile liegt der ultrakonservative Kandidat José Antonio Kast nach Auszählung fast aller Stimmen vorn. Laut dem von der Wahlbehörde veröffentlichten Ergebnis kommt der deutschstämmige Anwalt auf 28 Prozent. An zweiter Stelle folgt mit knapp 26 Prozent der linksgerichtete Ex-Studentenführer Gabriel Boric. Damit dürften die beiden Bewerber von den äußersten Rändern des politischen Spektrums in die Stichwahl am 19. Dezember einziehen. Die Amtszeit des bisherigen chilenischen Präsidenten Sebastián Piñera endet im März. Amtsinhaber Radew gewinnt Präsidentenwahl in Bulgarien Bulgariens Staatschef Rumen Radew hat die Stichwahl um die Präsidentschaft laut mehreren Prognosen überzeugend gewonnen. Er kann mit bis zu gut 65 Prozent der Stimmen rechnen, während sein Herausforderer Anastas Gerdschikow am Sonntag etwa 33 Prozent der Wähler überzeugen konnte. Die Wahlbeteiligung lag nach ersten Erhebungen bei weniger als 40 Prozent und damit noch niedriger als in der ersten Wahlrunde vor einer Woche. Gerdschikow gestand seine Niederlage bereits ein. Österreich wieder im landesweiten Lockdown Angesichts sprunghaft steigender Corona-Infektionszahlen ist in Österreich das öffentliche Leben wieder lahmgelegt. Seit diesem Montag gilt für bis zu 20 Tage ein landesweiter Lockdown für alle, also auch für Geimpfte. Das eigene Zuhause darf nur noch aus dringenden Gründen wie für die Arbeit, Arztbesuche und das Einkaufen von Dingen des täglichen Bedarfs verlassen werden. Handel, Gastronomie und Kultur müssen grundsätzlich schließen, nur Supermärkte, Apotheken oder Drogerien bleiben offen. Schulen und Kindergärten sollen für diejenigen "prinzipiell" geöffnet bleiben, die zu Hause nicht versorgt werden können. Erneut Ausschreitungen bei Corona-Protesten in den Niederlanden und Belgien In den Niederlanden sind in der dritten Nacht in Folge Proteste gegen die Corona-Auflagen in Gewalt umgeschlagen. In Groningen, Leeuwarden, Enschede und Tilburg entzündeten laut Polizeiangaben und Medienberichten Randalierer am Sonntagabend Feuerwerkskörper und richteten Sachschäden an. In Enschede nahe der deutschen Grenze riefen die Behörden den Ausnahmezustand aus. In den Niederlanden gilt seit einer Woche ein Teil-Lockdown. Auch in der belgischen Hauptstadt Brüssel kam es zu Gewalt nach einer Demonstration mit zehntausenden Teilnehmern gegen strengere Corona-Regeln. Australien öffnet Grenzen für ausländische Studierende und Fachkräfte Nach 20-monatiger Grenzschließung aufgrund der Corona-Pandemie öffnet sich Australien ab dem 1. Dezember wieder für Studenten und Fachkräfte aus dem Ausland. Australien hatte als Reaktion auf die Pandemie im März 2020 eine der weltweit rigorosesten Grenzschließungen verhängt. Selbst eigenen Staatsbürgern wurde bis auf wenige Ausnahmen die Rückkehr in ihr Heimatland untersagt. Erst zu Beginn dieses Monats wurden die Grenzen für Australier wieder geöffnet. Eine allgemeine Öffnung der Grenzen ist aber noch nicht in Sicht. Zwei US-Geiseln in Haiti freigelassen Zwei der 17 im Oktober in Haiti entführten Nordamerikaner sind wieder frei. Sie seien "sicher" und "frohgemut" und würden versorgt, erklärte die christliche Organisation Christian Aid Ministries, der die Entführten angehören. Die berüchtigte Bande "400 Mawozo" hatte die Missionare und ihre Familienangehörigen Mitte Oktober auf dem Rückweg von einem Waisenhaus nahe der haitianischen Hauptstadt Port-au-Prince verschleppt. Bandenboss Wilson Joseph drohte später mit der Ermordung der Geiseln, sollte ein Lösegeld von 17 Millionen Dollar (ca. 15 Millionen Euro) nicht gezahlt werden.

Haiti, synonymous with generational poverty, misrule, and human misery, is reeling from a series of calamities as grave as any the island nation of 11 million people has suffered through. In July gunmen assassinated president Jovenel Moise, whom the opposition had accused of attempting to illegally prolong his term. The political crisis remains unresolved. In August a powerful earthquake killed more than 2,000 people and injured 12,000, recalling the devastating 2010 quake and the ensuing failure of donor relief to rebuild the country. And as the year draws to the close, Port-au-Prince is considered the kidnapping capital of the world as armed gangs operate with impunity. The weak central government is unable to control the gangs in a security vacuum caused by the departure of a U.N. lead peace-keeping force in 2019. In this episode of History As It Happens, historian Alan McPherson, an expert in U.S. foreign relations with Latin America and the Caribbean, discusses the roots of Haiti's struggles, which date to its founding as the first free Black republic in 1804.
Here's what we're talking about on Leid Stories today. New York Attorney General Letitia James scores a $1.1B victory against three major opioid manufacturers and distributors. Except they won big, too. The 400 Mawozo, one of several gangs controlling daily life in villages and small towns in Haiti, is threatening to kill 17 hostages -- 16 American and one Canadian missionaries -- if their $1- million-per-hostage demand is not immediately met. Is this the point of no return?
A gang that kidnapped 17 members of a U.S.-based missionary group last weekend has demanded $1 million ransom per person. The official, who was not authorized to speak to the press, told The Associated Press that someone from the 400 Mawozo gang made the demand Saturday in a call to a leader of the ministry group after the abduction. This group was returning to the U.S. from visiting an orphanage when it was abducted. What is the heart and mindset of the abducted missionaries? Dr. Matt Bennett, a former missionary who served in a hostile region in the world for 17 years, now serves as an assistant professor of missions and theology at Cedarville University and joins Mornings with Eric and Brigitte on Monday to speak into this critical situation. He can speak to the mindset of the missionaries and why they risked their lives to serve in Haiti. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Saturday, a gang kidnapped 17 North American missionaries in Haiti as the party returned from an orphanage in a suburb of Port-au-Prince. Since then, the group, known as 400 Mawozo, has demanded a ransom of $17 million for the victims, who include five men, seven women, and five children. While many locals have been kidnapped in recent years as security on the country's roads has been increasingly threatened, this incident has drawn significant international attention. This kidnapping comes roughly two months after US troops withdrew from Afghanistan. America's departure and the chaos that ensued led many expats, including aid workers and missionaries, to leave the country. Anna Hampton is the author of Facing Danger: A Guide Through Risk, which is based on her doctoral dissertation at Trinity Seminary in Newburg. She's been in full-time ministry for 28 years, more than 17 of those years in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Turkey and other parts of Central Asia and the Middle East. She and her family are now based in the US, but still doing work in Central Asia, so Anna Hampton is a pseudonym. Hampton joined global media manager Morgan Lee and executive editor Ted Olsen to discuss how the Bible discusses risk, what has shaped Western Christians' perspectives on this issue, and how saviorism affects how we make these decisions.

We can expect that the kidnap for ransom gang that is holding the American and Canadian Missionary group hostage is now seen on a different level. They have taken hostages from an aid agency before and gotten paid, this group the 400 Mawozo or 400 Marozo unclear which spelling is used one term means idiots the other simpletons or neardowells are far from their origins as a gang of drug and booze-crazed youths who committed crimes for the need for money. They are the real thing - a criminal gang terrorizing the Caribean country on the verge of collapse. If the gang and its leaders can hook up with haters of American groups and missionaries this could turn them into a far wider and wilder group beyond 400 - and Haiti into a base for crimanl piracy and terror that could make them be as bad as the horn of Africa or some areas for Sulu Sea. If or when the ransom is paid and the hostages are released, the gangs leadership is smart enough to know there will be at some point a reckoning - it may be in their best interest to see no harm comes to anyone in thier custody as they will one day have to face up to what is done and so will anyone who helps them. First, we hear from the White House, then from Canadian broadcaster CTV on their analysis of the situation - www.ctv.ca and whitehouse.gov are the audio souces. US and Canadian law enforcement know after this situation whatever the outcome - the gang and its backers in government in Haiti that allow it to exist - and expect they do have allies if they are committing 80% of the 380 kidnaps reported in the capital of Port-Ah-Prince alone. The country has its problems and it is likely this kidnapping had something to do with the border situation and the asylum seekers who were trying to enter the USA. Expect further that this will get worse with the gang growing stature and perhaps other gangs might be emboldened to hit targets in the Dominican Republic or beyond even up to Puerto RIco, The US has the means and capability and needs to remind this gang who and what they are dealing with at some point moving forward. I have seen this play out before with different groups some ideologues others who were in it purely for the money. On this is clear it may not happen soon but expect one day even a decade down the road those responsible had better hope none of the hostages are harmed. Becuase the wrath of a superpower can be fury beyond what they have ever seen. None of the kidnappers I know of who took part in attacks on Amrtivsnd ot Canadians for or westerners many of them ideologicial foes of the USA ended well, Many are not far off in Gitmo others are sleeping with the fishes. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mike-k-cohen/support
The gang that kidnapped a group of 17 American and Canadian missionaries in Haiti has asked for $1 million each for their release, a top Haitian official told CNN Tuesday.The 16 American citizens and one Canadian were kidnapped by the powerful "400 Mawozo" gang on Saturday after visiting an orphanage in Croix-des-Bouquets, a northeast suburb of the capital Port-au-Prince, over the weekend.Their abduction is part of a wave of indiscriminate kidnappings that has become more brazen as the country suffers from political instability, civil unrest, lack of quality healthcare and severe poverty.Haitian Justice Minister Liszt Quitel told CNN the kidnappers have demanded a total of $17 million for the group's release and that they were being held in a location outside the suburb.The missionaries are affiliated with the Ohio-based Christian Aid Ministries, which says the abducted group is made up of five men, seven women and five children.The five children abducted include an 8-month-old baby and children ages 3, 6, 13 and 15 years old, Christian Aid Ministries said in a Tuesday statement. The ages of the adults range from 18 to 48, they said.Quitel said that both Haitian police negotiators and the FBI are advising the missionary group on how to proceed and that negotiations are ongoing. FBI agents are on the ground in Haiti assisting with the investigation but are not leading the negotiations, nor have they spoken directly with the kidnappers, he said."The FBI is part of a coordinated US government effort to get the Americans involved to safety. Due to operational considerations, no further information is available at this time," an FBI spokesperson told CNN.The hostages are being held somewhere outside of Croix-des-Bouquets, the Port-au-Prince suburb controlled by the gang, Quitel said."The gang has locations where they usually keep their hostages so that they can feel the hostages are safe. They feel comfortable keeping them there," Quitel told CNN."The kidnappers have been warned about harming the hostages and what may be the consequences for them [if that were to happen]. But they are not swayed by those warnings," said Quitel, adding that the kidnappers are sticking to their demands.A source in Haiti's security forces said that for the moment all hostages are safe. The source added the gang members in contact with authorities appear calm and not nervous.The ransom demands for the missionaries were first reported by the Wall Street Journal.The missionaries were traveling in a sprinter-type van when they left the orphanage on Saturday, according to a person familiar with the matter. The driver of the vehicle was an American who was a part of the group, the person said.Dan Hooley, a former field director for Christian Aid Ministries in Haiti, told CNN Sunday that all of the kidnapped people are believed to have been in one vehicle, and that some were able to contact the organization's local director before they were taken."A couple of fellows right away messaged the director and told him what was going on. And one of them was able to drop a pin, and that's the last thing (the organization) heard until the kidnappers contacted them later in the day," Hooley said.The group had in recent weeks been involved in a rebuilding project for those who lost their homes in August earthquake, according to the Christian Aid Ministries statement.Before the kidnapping, their work across the country included supporting thousands of school children, distributing Bibles and Christian literature, as well as supplying medicine to clinics, teaching Haitian pastors and providing food for the elderly and vulnerable, the statement said."This group of workers has been committed to minister throughout poverty-stricken Haiti," it said.Among the kidnapped are members of a family from the congregation of Dunkard Brethren Church in Hart, Michigan, according to the church's minister, Ron Marks.The family had arrived in Haiti earlier this...
Mix-n-match Covid booster shots could be on their way soon. The FDA may be allowing Americans to switch to another shot when choosing a booster. Preliminary data shows that it is still safe and gives a huge boost to your protection particularly if you had the J&J shot. The Pfizer vaccine boosted antibody levels by a factor of 35 and Moderna raised it 76-fold. Carl Zimmer, columnist at the NY Times, joins us for more on mix-match boosters. Next, the Haitian gang accused of kidnapping American missionaries goes by the name of 400 Mawozo, and they have reportedly asked for $17 million, a ransom of $1 million per hostage. Kidnappings have increased as the president there was recently assassinated and poverty persists throughout the country. This group has been responsible for 80% of the kidnappings in the last few months. Miriam Berger, international news reporter at The Washington Post, joins us for what to know. Finally, nearly 40% of state workers in California remain unvaccinated despite Gov. Gavin Newsom's orders. The orders are to be vaccinated or undergo weekly testing and state workers are lagging compared to the general public. The big hurdle comes soon as state offices begin to reopen and the testing infrastructure still needs to be completed. Wes Venteicher, state worker reporter at the Sacramento Bee, joins us for more.

In local news, The Appalachian reports that the town of Boone will be hosting its municipal general election on November 2nd. Early voting will run from October 14th through the 30th and absentee ballots have been available since October 3rd. Occurring nationally, The Wall Street Journal reports that the Food and Drug Administration will soon approve for individuals to receive a COVID-19 booster shot that is different from their initial vaccine dose.

In world news, The New York Times reports that the United States has a team of F.B.I. members working in Haiti to locate and recover a group of 17 kidnapped missionaries. The missing group includes five children and it is believed they were captured by the 400 Mawozo gang- a group that takes mass abductions, forcing family members of hostages to pay a ransom for their release. Today's weather update is brought to you by BooneWeather.com. Expect a high of 66 with a low of 41 with clear skies and light wind.

The Story of Jelani Day In August, Jelani Day went missing and his car was found with no license plates or keys several days after he was reported missing. Ten days later, Jelani's body was found in the Illinois River 60 miles from his campus in a town where less than 1 percent of the population is Black and he had no known connections. It's important to note that Jelani was an avid swimmer who'd competed on his school's swim team. The Takeaway talks with Linda Foster, President of the Bloomington-Normal NAACP and James E. Wright II, assistant professor at Florida State University, specializing in policing, about the story of Jelani Day. Jury Selection in the Trial of Ahmaud Arbery's Accused Killers Began Monday Like the murder of George Floyd and so many others, Arbery's death sparked a wave of racial justice uprisings across the U.S. in the summer of 2020. It also prompted the state of Georgia to make changes to its criminal justice law, including the passage of a hate crimes statute. For more on the trial, The Takeaway spoke to Nicole Lewis, senior editor of Jurisprudence at Slate. Christian Missionaries Held Captive by Haitian Gang 17 Christian missionaries building an orphanage in Haiti remain captive after they were abducted by the 400 Mawozo gang on Saturday, October 16th. Kidnappings in Haiti continue to rise counting 328 during the first 8 months of 2021. We discuss the situation in Haiti leading up to the kidnappings and what we can anticipate with Jaqueline Charles, Caribbean and Haitian correspondent for the Miami Herald. The Life and Legacy of Colin Powell Colin Powell, the first Black U.S. Secretary of State, passed away on Monday due to complications from Covid-19 at the age of 84. Powell, a 4-star Army general, was also the first black national security advisor and chairman of the joint chiefs of staff. We look back at his life of public service and his role in leading the U.S. into the Iraq War. For transcripts, see individual segment pages.

Samedi 16 octobre en Haïti, un groupe de missionnaires, dont 16 Américains et un Canadien ont été enlevés avec leurs familles lors d'un kidnapping de masse, attribué au gang « 400 Mawozo ». C'est le dernier signe de la dégradation sécuritaire du pays depuis des années, dénoncée par plusieurs associations sur place qui ont appelé à la grève ce lundi 18 octobre. Frédéric Thomas, spécialiste d'Haïti, décrypte cette situation de « violence généralisée ». Frédéric Thomas est docteur en science politique, chargé d'étude au Centre tricontinental (Cetri), centre de recherche sur les rapports Nord-Sud, basé à Louvain-la-neuve, en Belgique, et auteur de l'ouvrage L'échec humanitaire : le cas haïtien (éditions Couleur livres).

Unmut wegen Bitcoin-Einführung In El Salvador sind Tausende gegen die Regierung von Präsident Nayib Bukele auf die Straße gegangen. Der Protest in der Hauptstadt San Salvador richtete sich unter anderem gegen die Einführung des Bitcoins als offizielle Währung neben dem Dollar. Auf Protestplakaten waren Aufschriften zu lesen wie "Nein zur Diktatur" und "Bitcoin ist Betrug". El Salvador hatte Anfang September als erstes Land der Welt die Kryptowährung als offizielles Zahlungsmittel eingeführt und 200 Wechselautomaten im Land aufgestellt.
