États-Unis : perpétuité incompressible pour l’agresseur du mari de Nancy Pelosi
LE FIGARO : David DePape, un citoyen canadien adepte des théories du complot, avait violemment agressé Paul Pelosi avec un marteau en octobre 2023.
L’agresseur qui avait attaqué au marteau le mari de Nancy Pelosi, l'ancienne cheffe démocrate de la Chambre des représentants aux États-Unis, a été condamné mardi à la prison à perpétuité incompressible par un tribunal de Californie, selon les médias américains. David DePape avait déjà écopé de 30 ans de prison à l'issue de son procès fédéral en mai. Cette nouvelle peine, qui s'ajoute à la première, conclut son procès dans l'État de Californie, où il était poursuivi pour des chefs d'accusation légèrement différents. Elle intervient pile une semaine avant une élection présidentielle extrêmement tendue entre Donald Trump et Kamala Harris aux États-Unis. » | Par Le Figaro avec AFP | mardi 29 octobre 2024

Margaret Thatcher English Accent Interview Excerpts Career as Prime Minister
Margaret Thatcher was a remarkable lady. A truly remarkable lady. She had a command of politics like few others, she spoke with such clarity and so eloquently, she always dressed appropriately, and she comported herself with such dignity. Furthermore, and very importantly, she never lost her femininity despite living in a man's world. Requiescat in pace! — © Mark Alexander

Donald Trump Will DESTROY America If Elected | The Warning with Steve Schmidt
That so many Americans are even contemplating the re-election of Trump into the White House can only make one wonder about them and shake one’s head. It is to be hoped that the American voters will not inflict Trump on the rest of the world a second time. A one four-year term of Trump was quite enough, thank you very much!
Moreover, Americans must surely know that Trump is Putin’s marionette. Putin is the one pulling Trump’s strings; Trump does Putin’s bidding for him.
Without Trump, I firmly believe that Brexit would never have happened. Trump helped his buddy, Farage, bring about that ridiculous and impoverishing decision for the UK to leave the European Union, thus destabilising and weakening the European Union to Putin’s delight. If given another term in the White House, Trump will oblige Putin even further and withdraw the USA from NATO. Trump has promised to do that; and we should believe him. This is the stuff of which Putin can only dream. But it will be our nightmare.
Keep Trump OUT of the White House! You know it makes sense. – © Mark Alexander

Iran Executes German-Iranian Dissident after Years in Captivity
THE GUARDIAN: Berlin warns of ‘serious consequences’ for ‘inhumane regime’ after 69-year-old Jamshid Sharmahd put to death
Iran has executed a 69-year-old German-Iranian political scientist after years in captivity, sparking outrage in Germany and beyond.
Berlin warned of “serious consequences” for Iran’s “inhumane regime” after Jamshid Sharmahd was put to death on Monday, while a Norway-based human rights group labelled the execution the “extrajudicial killing of a hostage”.
Sharmahd, a German citizen of Iranian descent and a US resident, was seized by Iranian authorities in 2020 while travelling through the United Arab Emirates, according to his family.
Iran, which does not recognise dual citizenship, announced his arrest after a “complex operation”, without specifying how, where or when he was seized. » | Agence France-Presse in Berlin | Monday, October 28, 2024

A Divided America Responds to Nazi Persecution | Unites States Holocaust Memorial Museum
Sep 21, 2022 | Reports out of Germany in the late 1930s and early 1940s showed that life was increasingly dangerous for Jews. Some Americans urged the US government to offer refuge to those attempting to flee, but most did not want to open the doors. In 1939, 20,000 Americans packed Madison Square Garden—the stage adorned with swastikas and American flags—for a pro-Nazi rally. Outside, 100,000 Americans protested the event.
