Revue de presse sur la #Chine semaine du 22.10.12
Un groupe d’experts a été mis en place mardi par l’Organisation mondiale du commerce (#OMC) pour examiner la légalité des #droits de #douanes imposés par la Chine sur des #voitures #américaines.
L’’OMC deviendrait-elle ainsi le bras armé diplomatico-commercial des Etats-Unis, en pleine période électorale ?
Nan... Je veux pas croire que c’est vrai.
Israel asks Arab visitors to open emails to search - CBS News

In a modern twist on Israel’s vaunted history of airport security, the country has begun forcing incoming travelers deemed suspicious to open their personal e-mail accounts for inspection.
JERUSALEM — When Sandra Tamari arrived at Israel’s international airport, she received an unusual request: A security agent pushed a computer screen in front of her, connected to Gmail and told her to “log in.”
The agent, suspecting Tamari was involved in pro-Palestinian activism, wanted to inspect her private email account for incriminating evidence. The 42-year-old American of Palestinian descent refused and was swiftly expelled from the country.
Tamari’s experience is not unique. In a cyber-age twist on Israel’s vaunted history of airport security, the country has begun to force incoming travelers deemed suspicious to open personal email accounts for inspection, visitors say.
Targeting mainly Muslims or Arabs, the practice appears to be aimed at rooting out visitors who have histories of pro-Palestinian activism, and in recent weeks, has led to the expulsion of at least three American women.
It remains unclear how widespread the practice is.
et on nous parlera après de grande démocratie... si on ajoute leur agissements contre les immigrés illégaux, cela commence à faire beaucoup. Certes, nous avons nos tares aussi et sans doute pas que des leçons à donner mais que cela ne nous empêche pas de dire les choses...
Is Israel’s search through visitors’ email accounts legal ?

Recent searches into the email accounts of passengers arriving in Israel raises the question of how far the State can go in its airport security checks. It is one thing to search files located on a person’s computer , but quite another to go through a person’s cyberspace history.
