Eleições no Egito

No one believes that parliamentary elections in Egypt are democratic. They do not hold out the prospect of changing the government. They are not free and fair. Mohamed ElBaradei, the ex-UN nuclear inspections chief turned Egyptian politician, has said that anyone who votes in Egypt's next elections, slated for November, will be transgressing "the national will." But none of the opposition parties have taken up his boycott call. Every election cycle, indeed, both government and opposition invest immense time and effort in preparation for the balloting. Why do they bother?

Uma escrava sem alforria

Todos os dias, tinha de manter relações sexuais com até 15 soldados, durante quatro anos


Era uma criança, não sabia nada Talvez o Japão esteja esperando que morramos, porque somos testemunhas vivas


RESUMO Desde 1992, todas as quartas-feiras, ao meio-dia, Gill Won Ok, 83, e outras idosas se revezam diante da Embaixada do Japão na Coreia do Sul. Protestam contra o uso de quase 200 mil coreanas como escravas sexuais durante o período de ocupação (1910-1945). Já foram 940 atos exigindo desculpas formais e reparação.
