Trump’s Trip Disaster – Shoving NATO Leader, Insulting Countries, Embarrassing America


Donald Trump’s first overseas trip as President has come to a close, and it probably couldn’t have gone worse for the American public. He shoved a leader of NATO, accused the organization’s member countries of not paying a debt that doesn’t exist, and insulted the German people. All in all, it’s not a good look for the United States. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

Jeremy Scahill & Glenn Greenwald: Criminalizing WikiLeaks Is a Threat to Journalists Everywhere


Swedish prosecutors recently dropped the investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct by WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange. Assange has always denied the allegations, which he calls a pretext for his ultimate extradition to the U.S. to face prosecution under the Espionage Act. Since 2012, Assange has taken refuge in the Ecuadorean Embassy in London. It’s not clear whether he will emerge any time soon. Last month, U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions confirmed that the U.S. has prepared a warrant for Assange, calling his arrest a "priority." To talk more about Julian Assange, we speak with two of the founders of The Intercept: Jeremy Scahill and Glenn Greenwald.

Inside Story - More NATO Troops for Afghanistan?


The war in Afghanistan is now in its 16th year. Donald Trump is considering sending in several thousand more troops. He's also urging NATO member countries to contribute more. But some in Afghanistan say an increase in foreign forces is like adding wood to a fire.

The Taliban has taken control of more districts. And there's the ISIL offshoot in Afghanistan: Islamic State Khorasan - also known as ISIL-K. The group has been targeting civilians, recruiting fighters and expanding its influence in the region. | Guests: Kristine Berzina, Transatlantic Fellow at the German Marshall Fund of the United States.

Angebliches Trump-Zitat: „Die Deutschen sind böse, sehr böse“


FRANKFURTER ALLGEMEINE: Donald Trump hat in Brüssel Klartext geredet. Besonders drastische Worte soll der amerikanische Präsident hinter verschlossenen Türen über Deutschland gefunden haben.

Der amerikanische Präsident Donald Trump soll bei seinem Treffen mit den EU-Spitzen heftige Kritik am deutschen Handelsbilanz-Überschuss geübt haben. Der „Spiegel“ zitierte Teilnehmer, die Trump mit den Worten wiedergaben: „Die Deutschen sind böse, sehr böse.“ Die „Süddeutsche Zeitung“ hatte ein ähnliches Zitat. Allerdings gab es offiziell keine Bestätigung.

An dem Treffen am Donnerstag hatten zunächst nur EU-Ratspräsident Donald Tusk und EU-Kommissionspräsident Jean-Claude Juncker teilgenommen, später wurde die Runde erweitert. Die Sprecher beider Präsidenten sagten auf Anfrage, ihnen sei dieses Zitat des Präsidenten nicht bekannt. » | Quelle: dpa | Donnerstag, 25. Mai 2017

Two Men in Indonesia Endure Public Flogging for Gay Sex


THE TELEGRAPH: Two men in Indonesia's Aceh province were publicly caned dozens of times on Tuesday for consensual gay sex, a punishment that intensifies an anti-gay backlash in the world's most populous Muslim country and which rights advocates denounced as "medieval torture."

More than a thousand people packed the courtyard of a mosque to witness the caning, which was the first time that Aceh, the only province in Indonesia to practice Shariah law, has caned people for homosexuality.

The crowd shouted insults and cheered as the men, aged 20 and 23, were whipped across the back and winced with pain. Many in the crush of spectators filmed the caning with mobile phones as a team of five robed and hooded enforcers took turns inflicting the punishment, relieving one another after every 20 strokes for one of the men and 40 for the other.

Sarojini Mutia Irfan, a female university student who witnessed the caning, said it was a necessary deterrent. » | Associated Press | Tuesday, May 23, 2017

Was Trump Convincing? – Inside Story


Donald Trump's first trip abroad as president was to Saudi Arabia, and the capital Riyadh laid on a grand royal welcome.

A business deal worth 350billion dollars was signed between the United States and Saudi Arabia - about one-third of which was for weapons.

The visit also provided an opportunity to realign perceptions of power in the region. Trump's predecessor Barack Obama seemed to distance himself from Saudi Arabia, by working with Iran as a regional leader. As a long-time critic of Iran, Trump is looking to reverse that policy.

But it was his speech, addressing the Muslim world, at the Arab Islamic American summit, that was most widely anticipated - a world he'd been strongly critical of during his election campaign.

Now he was urging Muslim leaders to share the burden in defeating those he described as Islamist extremists, saying a better future was only possible if they helped "drive out the terrorists".

He stuck to the speech written by his Senior Adviser Stephen Miller. But was the overture from Trump genuine? | Presenter: Richelle Carey | Guests: Robert Jordan, former U.S. ambassador to Saudi Arabia: Ahmed Alibrahim, a Saudi affairs specialist; Henri Barkey, Director of the Middle East Program at Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars; Sadegh Zibakalam, Professor of Political Science at the University of Tehran


"I Could Have Died": Protesters Detail Violent Attack by Turkish President Erdogan's Guards in Washington DC


Last week Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s security detail assaulted a group of peaceful protesters outside the Turkish ambassador’s residence. Video from the scene shows Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan looking on during the assault. It’s not clear if Erdogan gave the order for the attack. The assault came shortly after Erdogan was welcomed to the White House by President Trump. For more, we speak with Seyid Riza Dersimi, who was violently attacked during the protest and rushed by ambulance to the hospital, where he received stitches on his nose and was treated for a head injury. We also speak with Ruken Isik, a Kurdish activist and Ph.D. student at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. She attended last week’s protest and wrote a piece for The Huffington Post titled "Will Erdogan’s Thugs Face No Consequences for Attacking Us on U.S. Soil?"

As Iranian Voters Reject Hardliner, Trump Embraces Saudi Monarch & Vows to Isolate Iran


President Trump vowed to isolate Iran during his major address to Gulf leaders in Saudi Arabia. He accused Iran of funding, arming and training militias and other extremist groups in region while ignoring Saudi Arabia’s role in destabilizing the region. Trump’s remarks came just two days after Iranian President Hassan Rouhani was re-elected in a landslide vote Friday. Rouhani’s main challenger, hardline judge Ebrahim Raisi, received only 38 percent. For more on Trump’s trip to Saudi Arabia and Iran’s election, we speak with Trita Parsi founder and president of the National Iranian American Council. He’s the author of the new book "Losing an Enemy: Obama, Iran, and the Legacy of Diplomacy," out next week.

Medea Benjamin: Congress Should Halt Trump's $110B Arms Deal over Saudi Atrocities in Yemen & Region


In his first foreign trip abroad as president, Donald Trump traveled this weekend to Saudi Arabia, where he signed an arms deals totaling $110 billion. This comes in addition to more than $115 billion offered in arms deals to Saudi Arabia by President Obama during his time in office. The deal also includes precision-guided munitions, which the Obama administration had stopped selling Saudi Arabia out of fear they would be used to bomb civilians amid the ongoing Saudi-led bombing campaign in Yemen. Since 2015, 10,000 people have been killed in the ongoing fighting, which has also decimated the country’s health, water, sewage and sanitation systems. Over 10,000 civilians have died since the Saudi invasion began in 2015. The arms deal includes tanks, artillery, ships, helicopters, a missile defense system and cybersecurity technology. We speak to Medea Benjamin, co-founder of CodePink and author of the book "Kingdom of the Unjust: Behind the U.S.-Saudi Connection."

To Trump, Human Rights Concerns Are Often a Barrier to Trade


THE NEW YORK TIMES: RIYADH, Saudi Arabia — Secretary of State Rex W. Tillerson had some advice on Saturday for Iran’s newly re-elected president. The Trump administration, he said, hopes Tehran “restores the rights of Iranians to freedom of speech, to freedom of organization, so that Iranians can live the life that they deserve.”

As he said that at a news conference, Mr. Tillerson was standing next to the Saudi foreign minister, Adel al-Jubeir, who represents a government that does not guarantee free speech or many other rights. When Mr. Tillerson turned to leave, a reporter asked if he had anything to say about human rights in Saudi Arabia. The secretary departed without answering.

President Trump’s visit to Saudi Arabia underscored the calculation he and his foreign policy advisers have made when it comes to questions of human rights around the world.

Mr. Trump and his team made clear they are willing to publicly overlook repression in places like Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states whose leaders are meeting here this weekend — as long as they are allies in areas the president considers more important, namely security and economics. » | Peter Baker and Michael D.

A Danger to the World: It's Time to Get Rid of Donald Trump


SPIEGEL ONLINE INTERNATIONAL: Donald Trump has transformed the United States into a laughing stock and he is a danger to the world. He must be removed from the White House before things get even worse.

Donald Trump is not fit to be president of the United States. He does not possess the requisite intellect and does not understand the significance of the office he holds nor the tasks associated with it. He doesn't read. He doesn't bother to peruse important files and intelligence reports and knows little about the issues that he has identified as his priorities. His decisions are capricious and they are delivered in the form of tyrannical decrees.

He is a man free of morals. As has been demonstrated hundreds of times, he is a liar, a racist and a cheat. I feel ashamed to use these words, as sharp and loud as they are. But if they apply to anyone, they apply to Trump. And one of the media's tasks is to continue telling things as they are: Trump has to be removed from the White House. Quickly. He is a danger to the world. » | A DER SPIEGEL Editorial by Klaus Brinkbäumer | Friday, May 19, 2017

Trump's White House: A Vortex of Scandal, Chaos and Absurdity


SPIEGEL ONLINE INTERNATIONAL: The White House is becoming more chaotic by the day. Now, a special counsel has been brought in to investigate possible connections between President Donald Trump's team and Russia. But the most important question is now whether Trump is mentally stable enough to be president.

On Wednesday, a few hours before the special counsel was set loose on him, Donald Trump was standing before the graduates of the Coast Guard Academy. He was supposed to hold an inspiring talk, to spread a positive message, as one does at graduation speeches. Instead, he once again spoke about himself. "Over the course of your life, you will find that things are not always fair," he said to the graduating students. "Look at the way I've been treated, especially by the media," Trump said. "No politician in history, and I say this with great surety, has been treated worse or more unfairly."

No politician in history. Not Nelson Mandela. Not Mahatma Gandhi, not John F. Kennedy. Him. There stood a billionaire, inhabiting the most powerful office in the world, complaining about how unfair the world was. Because there seems to be one rule with Donald Trump: He is never to blame, even though almost everything currently happening to him is his fault. » | Mathieu von Rohr | Friday, May 19, 2017

Theresa May to Create New Internet That Would Be Controlled and Regulated by Government


THE INDEPENDENT: The proposals come soon after the government won the right to collect everyone's browsing history

Particular focus has been drawn to the end of the manifesto, which makes clear that the Tories want to introduce huge changes to the way the internet works.

"Some people say that it is not for government to regulate when it comes to technology and the internet," it states. "We disagree."

Senior Tories confirmed to BuzzFeed News that the phrasing indicates that the government intends to introduce huge restrictions on what people can post, share and publish online.

The plans will allow Britain to become "the global leader in the regulation of the use of personal data and the internet", the manifesto claims. » | Andrew Griffin | Friday, May 19, 2017

In 2015, the deficit reached 15% of the GDP with the situation continuing in 2016 and threatening to swallow up every penny saved during the “black gold” years in a very short period of time. 70% of the Saudi population is under 30 and they will require two million jobs over the next decade. In this video, we talk about the plan that Saudi Arabia is trying to follow to escape from this scenario.
