"Yet, this is the same TNC that the Federal Government is backing in Libya. The blacks are not involved in Libyan crisis; they do not deserve this massacre."
Since there is no Genocide catagory, perhaps this should be posted unter WoT or Seedy Politicians. On second thought, the perpetrators are not white, so it fails to meet the genocide test. You decide. Nicely done NATO, Nobel Peace Prize winner Obama, and feckless UN drunks.
[Bangla Daily Star] Two alleged robbers of a gang were beaten to death by a mob when they were fleeing after looting a house in Sonagazi of Feni early yesterday.
Locals said a gang of 10 to 12 entered the house of Zahidul Mokter at Pashchim Char Darbesh village after breaking the door; took the house members hostage at gunpoint and looted valuables worth about Tk 10 lakh.
When the gang was about to escape, the house members gave out a cry. Neighbours came out of their houses and chased the criminals, reports a correspondent from Feni.
The villagers also made an announcement over the loudspeaker about the robbery from a nearby mosque.
Locals managed to catch three of the robbers near Kazirhat Sluice Gate, some 1.5 km off the village, and beat them severely. The rest of the dacoits, however, managed to flee the scene. ... as though they had never been... with booties.
Md Khurshid Alam, officer-in-charge (OC) of Sonagazi Police Station, said the three robbers were rescued and taken to the local upazila health complex where doctors declared two of them--Mamun, 30, and Zahir, 32--dead.
Injured robber Munna was undergoing treatment in the health complex, the OC added.
In another incident of robbery in Sadar upazila of the district, a man was critically injured when a gang of robbers hacked him indiscriminately at Jatrashiddi village.
The gang numbering 14 to 15 entered the house of Siraj Mia after breaking the collapsible gate and took the house members hostage at gun point.
They looted cash and gold ornaments worth about Tk 5 lakh and attacked Siraj with sharp weapons as he tried to resist them.
Our Netrakona correspondent reports, one person was killed and five others were bullet hit when a fleeing gang of dacoits sprayed bullets on a group of villagers chasing them at Adompur village under Khaliajuri upazila.
Police quoting locals said the gang numbering 12 to 15 entered Adompur village at about 12:30 am with forearms and committed robbery in five houses.
When the locals tried to apprehend them, the robbers fired shots at the villagers, leaving Choyan Das, 24, dead on the spot.
Five villagers, who received bullets in the attack, were admitted to Mymensingh Medical College Hospital in a critical condition.
The gang looted valuables including gold ornaments, cash worth about Tk 10 lakh.
A case was filed with Khaliajuri Police Station.

And yet Bangladesh is, it seems, the more civilized of the two Pakistans. With all its faults, I am much happier here in America.
A Jordanian man was charged on Sunday with killing his 24-year-old widowed daughter in hospital after she gave birth to twins, a judicial official said. The woman has been a widow for four years.

In a story a day earlier: "I was enraged and shot her dead because she did something shameful."
The woman has been a widow for four years."
Poor woman had the misfortune of living in the mideast although as I think about it, such an honor killing could have happened in Britain or the U.S. These zealots don't care about boundaries.

But everyone knows the length of pregnancy is Allah's will. Who is the father to say that the dead husband did not impregnate the murdered woman before he died?
Making friends and influencing people for the cause. How many union members are also TEA partiers, how many know one, how many sympathise? These meetings aren't closed occasions nowadays -- it's not like it used to be when a few news outlets controlled what was shared with the world.
Teamsters President Jimmy Hoffa had some profane, combative words for Republicans while warming up the crowd for President Obama in Detroit, Michigan on Monday.
"We got to keep an eye on the battle that we face: The war on workers. And you see it everywhere, it is the Tea Party. And you know, there is only one way to beat and win that war. The one thing about working people is we like a good fight. And you know what? They've got a war, they got a war with us and there's only going to be one winner. It's going to be the workers of Michigan, and America. We're going to win that war," Jimmy Hoffa Jr. said to a heavily union crowd.
"President Obama, this is your army. We are ready to march. Let's take these son of bitches out and give America back to an America where we belong," Hoffa added.

I doubt most rank and file Teamsters are as dim as the SEIU crowd. But if things get too serious, and either union tries to bust up a Tea Party crowd like they were scabs, they will soon find that Tea Partiers have both cameras and guns.

I have not heard any such divisive/abusive/violence- inciting remarks from the Tea Party or Republicans. However, we have been hearing of lot of this sort of thing from the labor unions and Democratic Party regularly. So much for the lack of civility Obama lectured and scolded about. I guess he meant any Republicans or anyone else who opposed his policies and dictates.

"That 68 year-old man holding a Gadsden flag -- we're sending him to the hospital. That 23 year old secretary who protested against Obamacare -- fist city, baby! 'Cause we're such big, tough union guys that the law doesn't apply to us except when we hide behind it. And hey, it takes a special kind of guy to inherit a union."

They really don't want to provoke us. Not unless they want to be dead. You keep on your side of the protest line and we'll stay on ours. It will work better that way.

Actiually, they are the ones who fear death. That's why the language. It's their final argument, fear. After Wisconsin, they know the Wagner Act will be in play in a Perry administration. So long dead weight.

nota bene:
I belong to a local government technical union - required by my job (which I love and I think I'm pretty good at?). That said, I will defend to the death against this Teamsters/SEIU/Obama union thuggery. I don't pay for the union PAC and I would quit if given the chance. Not all union members are bad - most of them are restricted by workplace rules - but some are, and if it takes pick handles in the streets, I'm there :-)

I'm in the same boat as Frank G. If my union should solicit my attendance at a rally, they may be, er, "disappointed" at which side of the police line I'll be on.....

We're not allowed to strike (and most I know would not), which DOES avoid the embarrassment of poor turnout

Typical deal with these Leftist/union thugs. Demonize and isolate the enemies. Dehumanize them. Oh, no, never get into a debate where they could lose on the merits of their arguments.

I was reading an article from the NYT, Sept. 7, 1885, which included the line, "Threats that had the color of Kuklux tactics were freely made."
This country hasn't changed all that much.
