South Africa: how the media stoked the fires of racism
25-05-2008 19:59
A major Idasa report, “Press Coverage of Cross Border Migration to South Africa Since 2000”, says the country’s newspapers and news wire services have played a major role in inflaming xenophobic sentiment."The air we breathe & the lines we cut" : FARC name Alfonso Cano is new leader.
25-05-2008 18:11
Timoleón Jiménez has appeared in a video passed to TeleSUR lamenting the passing of the founder of FARC whose death began to be reported yesterday.
http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2008/05/399496.html He died of a heart attack. They have also named the new leader of the paramilitary organisation. Thus the new name and personality who we may consider dealing with all the baggage of FARC. Its guerilla army, its hostages, its loyal population, its political hinterland who eschew armed struggle yet are persecuted, its role in the coca production and supply of cocaine from Colombia which is not already in the hands of the 3 cartels linked to the far right terrorists in the Colombian state. The new leader Guillermo León Sánez, alias Alfonso Cano is thus one of the people who decides how much rainforest should be cleared to grow coca instead of making oxygen. Coz as all you know well, coca only grows on the edge of rainforest for a maximum of two years, being a hungry little plant it needs nutrients when farmed which can only come from burning off jungle.
A short profile of this new man who shall play a small role in what goes up your nose. Be it oxygen or a 17% pure alkaloid.
