Duterte, 71, known for his foul language, also called “hypocrites” the United States and the European Union, which criticized its violent campaign against drug trafficking.

“Hitler massacred three million Jews and there are three million drug addicts (in the Philippines). I would be more then happy to slaughter them,” he said in a speech on Friday morning.

“But my victims, I wish they were all criminals in order to end the problem of my country and save the next generation of perdition,” he said.

The brand new Philippine president, came to power in May, he promised to kill tens of thousands of Philippine criminals with the aim to eliminate most if not all illegal drugs in the country within six months time.

Since the actual inauguration on June 30, more than 3,300 people died, most killed by civilians that followed the bloody rhetoric of President Rodrigo Duterte encouraging them to take justice into their own hands.

Numerous organizations defending human rights in that country and Western governments have strongly criticized this presidents policy.

Friday comparison with and or to Adolf Hitler, whose campaign was to eliminate Jews in Europe left more then six million dead at the end of World War II, unleashed still much more convictions.

“These statements are repulsive and President Duterte has to retract and apologize,” stated passionately president Ronald Lauder  of the World Jewish Congress.

U.S. and South Korea will “Pay the Price”

Who Will will “Pay the Price” U.S. or South Korea ?

 Chinese top newspaper on Saturday has cautioned that U.S. and South Korea will have to pay the price for their planning to deploy advance missile system in Korean peninsula. According to the newspaper, this action will lead to a reaction and counter measures are possible.

 Tensions have again risen in the Korean region after the North Korea’s series of nuclear tests. The last month’s test was the most powerful and whole world has now felt the seriousness of the issue.

 In July, after negotiations, South Korea and America had agreed to deploy U.S. Terminal high altitude area defense (THAAD) anti missile system in South Korea against the threats posed by North Korea through their missile testing.

 The plan does not find favorable comments from China and China feels that THAAD’s powerful Radar would comprise its security and even the security system will do nothing to stabilize the Korean peninsula.

 The ruling communist party’s official newspaper, China Daily said that China’s stance on the issue would not be changed as it’s a serious threat for the strategic security balance of the region.

 The newspaper also said that China is like all other countries and we can neither be vogue nor indifferent to the issues related to security matters. Using some harsh words, the newspaper also said that if U.S. and South Korea will try to change the security balance of the region then they have to pay the price and they will receive a proper counter attack.

 China has repeated its stance many times on THAAD but it is still unclear what steps will be taken against the deployment of THAAD. While the opposite camp has made a point that THAAD deployment has nothing to do with other countries, it is only a protection against the threats of North Korea.

After the pressure of international community, China has agreed with the UN sanctions against North Korea.

Previously, police departments have had the power to question the immigration status of detainees if “suspected” that were undocumented and stopped for long periods until the arrival of Immigration or Border Patrol.

As part of the agreement, the state also agreed to withdraw an appeal against another part of the SB1070 criminalizing workers who work on the streets and another section that allowed police to confiscate the car of a person if transporting an undocumented immigrant, whether a family member or not was also eliminated.

Alessandra Soler, director of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) said that this agreement ends legal action against SB1070, which reached the Supreme Court in 2012 and removed much of SB1070, but maintained section 2 (b), better known as “show me your papers.”

“We are very aware that this agreement will be implemented by each police department and insure that no civil violations occur,” said Soler.

Meanwhile, the attorney general of Arizona, Mark Brnovich, said in a statement that this agreement will also save taxpayers money by allowing the state to move forward.

German Economics Ministry Views On Trump Economic Plans

 

The republican candidate Donald Trump will face the rival Clinton in the U.S. presidential election on the 8th of November. The world and international institutions are keen to know the outcome of this historic event and some have already started to predict the future outcome. This time, a German magazine has amazed the world with its report.

trump

U.S. economy would face a sever loss in case of Donald trump’s win to the presidents seat of United States, According to the economics ministry of Germany. Der Spiegel magazine published the views of German ministry stated in an internal memorandum.

According to the magazine, ministry expects fewer jobs along with higher unemployment rate and shrinkage of GDP in the United States in case of a republican candidate’s victory. The magazine has claimed that these are the expectations and predictions of German economic ministry advisors in an internal memorandum.

Republican candidate Donald Trump has proposed tax cuts of $4.4 trillion and he wants to curb government regulations. He also proposed to take a tougher stand in trade deals that are or will be in the negotiation stages.

Donald Trump thinks that his economic plan would produce an upwards of 3.5 % economic growth and 25 million more jobs would be added in the coming decade as well.

The global economists have clear doubts on the assumptions and plans of trump.

Official Memorandums of the German Government and local magazine insist that trumps economic plans are not feasible. His plan will also violate the international and even the existing U.S. economic laws and through these kinds of steps, there are no chances of realistic economic policy.

On the report of Der Spiegel, the spokesperson of the German economic ministry declined to comment further on this subject.

This is not the first case of any international governmental department or research institutes’ prediction against trump’s future plans and forecasts. Last month, Oxford economics had estimated that U.S. economy would be some $1 trillion smaller than if trump wins the election in 2016.

But as anything in Government, Can we trust ANYTHING they say?.

Remember that this is an election and both sides will say anything to get that seat of power in my humble opinion, this isn’t our first ride on the train to nowhere.
