Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe's government should be investigated for crimes against humanity for overseeing and ignoring the breakdown of the nation's health care system, U.S.-based Physicians for Human Rights said in a report released Tuesday.
Awright, Bob. You're in big trouble now. You're gonna be investigated. Once they achieve concensus, of course.

The Mexican army has sent an estimated 2,000 troops to Juarez as part of a rotation even as the death toll surpassed 35 so far this year.
Two men were killed Tuesday evening, shot multiple times in separate attacks in which nearly 70 rounds were fired.
About 5 p.m., Hector Ramiro Guardado Pereira, 34, was slain in colonia Infonavit Tecnologico, said Chihuahua state police. Investigators counted 40 casings of three calibers.
About 10 minutes later, Agapito Aguirre Leyva, 36, was shot in the 1500 block of Acuario, where 29 casings of three calibers were found, police said.
Tuesday morning, Guillermo Pizarro Marceleño, 35, died at a hospital after being shot inside El Trebol restaurant on Avenida 16 de Septiembre, police said.
Three unidentified men were killed Monday. In one case, a man, who had a gag on his mouth and an electrical cord tied to a wrist and who might have been stabbed, shot and run over by a vehicle, was found at about 9:30 p.m. on Viaducto Diaz Ordaz road west of downtown, police said.
The other two slayings were a man with a plastic bag taped over his head found in a vacant lot in the Parajes del Sur area and a blindfolded man with several stab wounds to his torso found in a ditch in colonia Insurgentes, police said.
Soldiers who arrived in Juarez on Monday are part of a regular rotation of troops sent to different parts of Mexico, the Norte newspaper reported. Last year, more 1,600 people were slain in Juarez.

Wait till the new numbers are fabricated gathered with the recession. America might have exported a lot of jobs, but it also has exported a lot of unemployment that goes with those jobs when tough times hit.

Was wondering about that Baltic Sea pipeline Russian to Germany and if it would solve the problem then realized that the Mussels in Brussels would just work direct with Moscow and wouldn't have to care about anything east of the Germany/Poland border.
Nice! Could I man be this brutal without being accused of being sexist? No need to answer as we KNOW the answer. She also has some very positive comments on 'Cuda.
"And let me take this opportunity to say that of all the innumerable print and broadcast journalists who have interviewed me in the U.S. and abroad since I arrived on the scene nearly 20 years ago, Katie Couric was definitively the stupidest. As a guest on NBC's "Today" show during my 1992 book tour, I was astounded by Couric's small, humorless, agenda-ridden mind, still registered in that pinched, tinny monotone that makes me rush across the room to change stations whenever her banal mini-editorials blare out at 5 p.m. on the CBS radio network. And of course I would never spoil my dinner by tuning into Couric's TV evening news show. That sallow, wizened, drum-tight, cosmetic mummification look is not an appetite enhancer outside of Manhattan or L.A. There's many a moose in Alaska with greater charm and pizazz."
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has

Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
