After Scrutiny, C.I.A. Mandate Is Untouched - NYTimes.com
▻http://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/27/us/politics/after-scrutiny-cia-mandate-is-untouched-.html?_r=0
the scathing report the Senate Intelligence Committee delivered this month is unlikely to significantly change the role the C.I.A. now plays in running America’s secret wars. A number of factors — from steadfast backing by Congress and the White House to strong public support for clandestine operations — ensure that an agency that has been ascendant since President Obama came into office is not likely to see its mission diminished, either during his waning years in the White House or for some time after that.

#Torture par la #CIA : des poursuites judiciaires sont demandées
▻http://www.lorientlejour.com/article/900148/torture-par-la-cia-des-poursuites-judiciaires-sont-demandees.html
L’ONU et les défenseurs des droits de l’homme ont appelé mardi à des #poursuites_judiciaires contre les responsables américains après la publication d’un rapport sur la torture par la CIA, une éventualité jugée peu probable par le ministère américain de la Justice.
« Le rapport confirme ce que la communauté internationale savait », a indiqué Ben Emmerson, rapporteur des Nations unies sur les droits de l’homme, après la publication par le Sénat américain d’un rapport sur les techniques d’interrogatoires musclées utilisées par la CIA contre des détenus après le 11-Septembre.
« Une politique a clairement été orchestrée à haut niveau dans l’administration (du président George W.) Bush, qui a permis des crimes systématiques et des violations flagrantes des droits de l’homme internationaux », a-t-il ajouté. Il est « temps d’agir et les responsables de cette conspiration criminelle doivent être présentés devant la justice », a-t-il souligné.
« C’est un rapport scandaleux et il est impossible de le lire sans se sentir indigné par le fait que notre gouvernement a perpétré ces crimes atroces », a estimé Anthony Romero, directeur général de la puissante Union américaine de défense des libertés (#ACLU). « Les responsables du gouvernement qui ont autorisé ces pratiques illégales devraient rendre des comptes », a-t-il martelé.
Toute poursuite paraît néanmoins peu probable. Un responsable du ministère de la Justice qui n’a pas été nommé a indiqué que, depuis 2009, deux enquêtes ont été menées sur mauvais traitements de prisonniers, qui n’ont pu recueillir de #preuves suffisantes pour une inculpation.
Le rapport du Sénat ne présente « aucune nouvelle information » pour les enquêteurs, a assuré ce responsable dans un communiqué. Le rapport du Sénat, très attendu, constitue le compte rendu le plus détaillé du programme secret même si de nombreux éléments étaient déjà connus du grand public.
Selon les associations, il montre que les techniques utilisées ont violé à de multiples reprises les #lois internationales et les droits de l’homme les plus basiques.
Le programme « a donné le feu vert pour commettre impunément ce que la loi internationale sur la torture et les disparitions qualifie de #crimes », a noté Steven Hawkins, directeur général de la section américaine d’Amnesty International. « Il est temps de demander des comptes, ainsi qu’une enquête complète, des poursuites en justice et des compensations pour les victimes ».
Le directeur général de Human Rights Watch, Kenneth Roth, a souligné pour sa part que le rapport « montre bien que les affirmations répétées, selon lesquelles des mesures drastiques étaient nécessaires pour protéger les Américains, n’étaient que pure fiction ». Il note que l’administration de Barack Obama a fait cesser de nombreuses pratiques décrites sans concessions dans le rapport.
Néanmoins, « la torture restera une +option politique+ pour les présidents à venir si cet important exemple de recherche de la vérité ne conduit pas à ce que les responsables officiels soient traduits en #justice ».
L’ACLU a appelé l’administration Obama à prendre des mesures pour « s’assurer que les Etats-unis ne torturent plus jamais », en nommant un procureur spécial pour enquêter et en réformant la CIA.

The Senate Report on the C.I.A.’s Torture and Lies
▻http://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/10/opinion/the-senate-report-on-the-cias-torture-and-lies.html
The world has long known that the United States government illegally detained and tortured prisoners after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, and lied about it to Congress and the world. But the summary of a report released today of the Senate investigation of these operations, even after being sanitized by the Central Intelligence Agency itself, is a portrait of depravity that is hard to comprehend and even harder to stomach.
(...)
The litany of brutality, lawlessness and lack of accountability serves as a reminder of what a horrible decision President #Obama made at the outset of his administration to close the books on this chapter in our history, even as he repudiated the use of torture
Le #New_York_Times a quand même une faculté d’oubli phénoménale puisque ce n’est que très récemment qu’il a décidé d’appeler la torture de la CIA ...torture.

U.N. Food Agency to Resume Aid to Syrians After Donors Step Up
GENEVA — The United Nations said Tuesday that it would soon resume food aid to Syrian refugees after a successful emergency appeal through social media, which brought an outpouring of financial support from thousands of people and a number of Middle Eastern and European governments.

The letter to the Environmental Protection Agency from Attorney General Scott Pruitt of Oklahoma carried a blunt accusation: Federal regulators were grossly overestimating the amount of air pollution caused by energy companies drilling new natural gas wells in his state.
But Mr. Pruitt left out one critical point. The three-page letter was written by lawyers for Devon Energy, one of Oklahoma’s biggest oil and gas companies, and was delivered to him by Devon’s chief of lobbying.
Attorneys general in at least a dozen states are working with energy companies and other corporate interests, which in turn are providing them with record amounts of money for their political campaigns, including at least $16 million this year.

Global slavery has become a profitable growth industry generating an estimated $150 billion a year in illicit profits. Modern-day slaves include construction workers in the Persian Gulf, girls from Nepal trafficked into prostitution, shrimp fishermen on Thai ships, children in India working in brick kilns and garment workers in Bangladesh. Slavery is also present in prostitution rings, and even in private homes that employ domestic workers in the United States and Europe.
Crise ukrainienne : Poutine suspend un projet de gazoduc vers le sud de l’Europe
▻http://www.lemonde.fr/europe/article/2014/12/02/poutine-suspend-le-projet-de-gazoduc-south-stream-conteste-par-l-europe_4532
Il s’agit de l’une des premières conséquences des sanctions européennes à l’égard de la Russie dans le contexte de la crise en Ukraine. Le président russe, Vladimir Poutine, a annoncé, lundi 1er décembre, la suspension du projet russo-italien de gazoduc South Stream.
Porté par le géant gazier russe Gazprom, le projet, d’un coût évalué à 16 milliards d’euros, est destiné à approvisionner l’Europe en gaz russe en contournant l’Ukraine. Long de 3 600 kilomètres et d’une capacité estimée à 63 milliards de mètres cubes par an, il devait relier la Russie à l’Europe du Sud en passant par la Bulgarie pour contourner le territoire ukrainien. Le chantier avait été lancé en décembre 2012.
Mais en juin la Russie avait accusé l’Union européenne (UE) de faire pression sur certains de ses Etats membres, notamment la Bulgarie, pour qu’ils suspendent leur participation au projet. « Comme nous n’avons toujours pas reçu la permission de la Bulgarie, nous pensons que dans la situation actuelle la Russie ne peut pas poursuivre la réalisation de ce projet », a déclaré M. Poutine à l’occasion d’une visite en Turquie.
Conséquence des sanctions ? ou poursuite d’une politique de longue date de l’UE (cf. p. ex. ►http://seenthis.net/messages/265547 les « pressions » datent, au moins de décembre 2013, les premières sanctions de l’annexion de la Crimée en mars 2014)

In Diplomatic Defeat, Putin Diverts Pipeline to Turkey - NYTimes.com
▻http://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/02/world/europe/russian-gas-pipeline-turkey-south-stream.html
President Vladimir V. Putin said Monday that he would scrap Russia’s South Stream gas pipeline, a grandiose project that was once intended to establish the country’s dominance in southeastern Europe but instead fell victim to Russia’s increasingly toxic relationship with the West.
It was a rare diplomatic defeat for Mr. Putin, who said Russia would redirect the pipeline to Turkey. He painted the failure to build the pipeline as a loss for Europe and blamed Brussels for its intransigence.
The decision also seemed to be a rare victory for the European Union and the Obama administration, which have appeared largely impotent this year as Mr. Putin annexed Crimea and stirred rebellion in eastern Ukraine.
Russia had long presented the $22 billion South Stream project as a sound business move. But Washington and Brussels had dismissed it as a thinly veiled attempt by the Kremlin to cement its position as the dominant supplier in Europe while sidestepping Ukraine, where price disputes with Moscow twice interrupted supplies in recent years.

Blue Stream-2 ?
Assez bizarrement, de mon côté, j’aurais plutôt dit que du fait de la construction d’un pipeline vers la Chine, la Russie a considéré que la construction d’un pipeline vers l’Europe devenait inutile et coûteux.
De plus, comme l’Europe semble se satisfaire de devoir supporter le diktat du gouvernement ukrainien sur le pipeline vers la Russie, à la limite, autant qu’elle continue de la sorte.
Et enfin, comme l’Europe semble persuadée qu’elle est la seule à acheter du gaz russe, et qu’elle a le pouvoir de faire baisser les prix au niveau qu’elle le souhaite... autant la laisser dans cette illusion.
On va bien rigoler quand il va falloir acheter le gaz américain, parce qu’il n’y aura plus de gaz russe pour nous...
C’est impressionnant comme les nouvelles sont bien souvent orientées et borgnes.

Russia’s South Stream pipeline falls victim to Ukraine crisis, energy rout | Reuters

“It (scrapping South Stream) reflects internal Russian pressure on where it is going to invest limited resources at a point in time when sanctions are hitting,” said Carlos Pascual, a fellow at Columbia University’s Center on Global Energy Policy, referring to Western sanctions over Ukraine.
“It’s harder, more expensive to access capital and the fastest growing gas markets in the world are in Asia, and Russia has virtually no export capacity to the Asian market,” he added.
Et puis, il y a ceux pour qui l’Europe est toujours le centre du monde…
South Stream exposed cracks in EU strategy as Hungary, Austria, Serbia and Bulgaria among others saw it as a solution to the risk of supply disruptions via Ukraine, which have occurred three times during the last decade. Brussels, on the other hand, saw it as entrenching Moscow’s energy stranglehold on Europe.
“The alternative to Turkey is even more doubtful than the direct option to Europe,” one financial adviser who has dealt with the matter said on condition of anonymity.
The gas discount offered to Turkey casts further doubt over a project that was already economically doubtful, and would be far too big for Turkey alone to receive all the gas, supplying four times its annual demand.
“Even if it went to Turkey, most of its gas would end up in Europe, so it begs the question why introduce a transit risk instead of attempting to solve Russia-EU differences and run it directly to Europe as initially planned,” the adviser added.

Thanksgiving Weekend Sales, at Stores and Online, Slide 11 Percent - NYTimes.com
▻http://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/01/business/thanksgiving-weekend-sales-at-stores-and-online-slide-11-percent.html
Have Americans finally had enough of Black Friday madness?
Sales, both in stores and online, from Thanksgiving through the weekend were estimated to have dropped 11 percent, to $50.9 billion, from $57.4 billion last year, according to preliminary survey results released Sunday by the National Retail Federation. Sales fell despite many stores’ opening earlier than ever on Thanksgiving Day.
And though many retailers offered the same aggressive discounts online as they did in their stores, the web failed to attract more shoppers or spending over the four-day holiday weekend than it did last year, the group said. The average person who shopped over the weekend spent $159.55 at online retailers, down 10.2 percent from last year
Note que pour certains, ça ressemble à une révélation…
The results could show that “there are a significant number of Americans out there for whom the recession is not yet over,” said Matthew Shay, the president and chief executive [of the National Retail Federation].
Russian Money Suspected Behind Fracking Protests - NYTimes.com

Vlasa Mircia, the mayor of this destitute village in eastern Romania, thought he had struck it rich when the American energy giant Chevron showed up here last year and leased a plot of land he owned for exploratory shale gas drilling.
But the encounter between big business and rural Romania quickly turned into a nightmare. The village became a magnet for activists from across the country opposed to hydraulic fracturing, or fracking. Violent clashes broke out between the police and protesters. The mayor, one of the few locals who sided openly with Chevron, was run out of town, reviled as a corrupt sellout in what activists presented as a David versus Goliath struggle between impoverished farmers and corporate America.
(…)
“Everything that has gone wrong is from Gazprom,” Mr. Mircia said.
(…)
Before stepping down in September as NATO’s secretary general, Anders Fogh Rasmussen gave voice to this alarm with remarks in London that pointed a finger at Russia and infuriated environmentalists.
“Russia, as part of their sophisticated information and disinformation operations, engaged actively with so-called nongovernmental organizations — environmental organizations working against shale gas — to maintain dependence on imported Russian gas,” Mr. Rasmussen said. He presented no proof and said the judgment was based on what NATO allies had reported.

In one third-grade classroom, the walls are bordered by cheetah and zebra prints, bright pink caddies hold pencils and glue sticks, and a poster at the front lists rules, including “Act pretty at all times!”
Next door, cutouts of racecars and pictures of football players line the walls, and a banner behind the teacher’s desk reads “Coaches Corner.”
The students in the first class: girls. Next door: boys.
Single-sex education, common in the United States until the 19th century, when it fell into deep disfavor except in private or parochial schools, is on the rise again in public schools as educators seek ways to improve academic performance, especially among the poor. Here at Charles Drew Elementary School outside Fort Lauderdale, about a quarter of the classes are segregated by sex on the theory that differences between boys and girls can affect how they learn and behave.

« #Autorité_Palestinienne », sous-traitant de la répression israélienne.
Israel’s military and security apparatus remains the biggest threat to the 4.5 million Palestinians living under Israel’s 47-year occupation in the West Bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem. To take just one measure, a Ramallah-based prisoners’ rights organization estimates that the Israeli authorities have arrested a cumulative total of about 800,000 Palestinians since the 1967 war.
But a growing threat to Palestinians now comes from the Palestinian security forces. Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch and other rights organizations have documented numerous abuses. Palestinian security forces have tortured political prisoners and violently suppressed members not only of Hamas and Islamic Jihad, but also of the dissolved Fatah-affiliated Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade. They have also stifled opposition voices and peaceful demonstrations, roughing up and arresting protesters.
Much of this is done in collaboration with Israel. During our academic research, one high-ranking official from the Palestinian Authority’s Preventive Security Force told us: “We get lists with names” from the Israelis. They “need someone, and we are tasked to get that person for them.”
