What’s the connection among Boston, Washington, Minneapolis, Chicago, Milwaukee, Houston, Dallas, other than being American cities?” he said. “Has policing changed in the YouTube era? I don’t like the term ‘post-Ferguson,’ because I actually believe the ‘YouTube era’ captures it better. The question I keep asking my staff is, ‘Do these hypothesis fit the map and the calendar?’ ” he continued. “Cities with nothing in common are seeing in the same degree and in the same time – dramatic increases in violence, especially homicides — does heroin explain that? I struggle with that … is it guns? Well, what’s changed with guns in the last nine months? Is it the criminal justice system? Well, I keep asking my staff, what has changed that would explain that this is happening in the first nine months of this year and all over the country?” In May, the Justice Department announced $20 million dollars in funding for body-worn cameras for local police departments. “Body-worn cameras hold tremendous promise for enhancing transparency, promoting accountability, and advancing public safety for law enforcement officers and the communities they serve,” Attorney General Loretta Lynch said at the time. RELATED: Black Lives Matter, a political force to be reckoned with In March, the President’s Task Force on 21st Century Policing addressed the question of police self-awareness because of the presence of a camera (a police body camera, specifically) and found it to have a positive result. “When police officers are acutely aware that their behavior is being monitored (because they turn on the cameras), and when officers tell citizens that the cameras are recording their behavior, everyone behaves better. The results of this study are highly suggestive that this increase in self-awareness contributes to more positive outcomes in police-citizen interaction,” read one of their findings. As Comey was in Chicago making an explicit argument for aggressive policing as a means of reducing crime, and relaying the admittedly anecdotal theory of police self-consciousness, President Obama was participating in a White House panel discussion on criminal justice reform, emphasizing fairness in policing as one of the administration’s primary principles. And where Comey used the phrase “all lives matter” three times in his speech, President Obama used his closing remarks to explain the meaning of the phrase “black lives matter” and why saying “all lives matter” misses the point. “I think the reason that the organizes used the phrase ‘black lives matter’ was not because they said they were suggesting nobody else’s lives matter; rather, what they were suggesting was there is a specific problem that is happening in the African American community that’s not happening in other communities. And that is a legitimate issue that we’ve got to address,” Obama said. Where there is one very clear common thread among administration officials is on the need for more real data from which to draw conclusions. Attorney General Loretta Lynch went to great pains this month to emphasize the value and importance of gathering reliable statistics on police shootings and other police interactions. “Certainly the fact that we don’t have a nationwide, consistent set of standards is – not only does it make our job difficult it makes it hard to see these trends and that’s why it is so important to focus on these,” she said in an Oct. 5 press conference. President Obama, while at one point highlighting research that calls the crime spikes assumed in the YouTube effect into question, also emphasized the importance of data from activists. “There is a specific concern as to whether African Americans are sometimes not treated in particular jurisdictions fairly or subject to excessive force more frequently.” he said. “I think it’s important for those who are concerned about that to back it up with data, not anecdote[s]; to not paint with a broad brush…” Comey too, was deliberate in pointing out the need (and his advocacy) for more and better data to develop a more accurate picture of crime patterns. “We need better information to make better decisions,” he said Friday. In a speech to Georgetown University in February, Comey shared an exchange he’d had with a city official: “I recently listened to a thoughtful big city police chief express his frustration with that lack of reliable data. He said he didn’t know whether the Ferguson police shot one person a week, one a year, or one a century, and that in the absence of good data, ‘all we get are ideological thunderbolts, when what we need are ideological agnostics who use information to try to solve problems.’ He’s right.” Explore:Barack Obama, Black Lives Matter, Criminal Justice, FBI, James Comey, Justice System and Society http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/fbi-directors-all-lives-matter-message-clashes-obama PR
Arab Israeli flies across Golan Heights into Syria on paraglider to join rebel fighters, Israel's army says Israeli media gave the man's age as 23 and quoted investigators as speculating that he sought to join Islamic State or other insurgents trying to bring down Syrian president Bashar al-Assad. The incident, which took place on Saturday evening, prompted intensive searches. Witnesses reported Israeli aircraft circling and dropping illumination flares in the Golan Heights area. The military issued a brief statement saying that its investigation "indicates that the civilian that entered [Syria] is a resident of Jaljulia," a largely Muslim Arab town in central Israel. A Syrian rebel whose group operates in the area said the paraglider had come down either in Quneitra province or western Deraa. Local rebel groups include the Southern Front alliance affiliated with the Free Syrian Army, the Al Qaeda-linked Nusra Front, and a group called the Yarmouk Martyrs Brigade, which other rebels believe is affiliated with Islamic State. A military spokeswoman said the army was "examining the possibility he had entered Syria in order to join rebels". The army would not say where the crossing took place or provide any further information on the paraglider's condition. Israel's Army Radio said the man flew eastward against the prevailing wind, an indication he went deliberately and was not blown into Syria by accident. The Yarmouk Martyrs Brigade, which is supportive of the Islamic State group and active in the Daraa area in south Syria, addressed rumours circulating about the flight on Saturday night, stating on its Facebook page it had not taken an Israeli captive. Israel is publicly neutral on the Syria's four-year-old civil war but bans travel there by its citizens. In recent years it has stepped up scrutiny of those suspected of trying to reach the country through intermediary states like Turkey. Israel's Shin Bet security service, which is investigating the paraglider incident, said more than 40 Arab citizens and Palestinians from Israeli-held East Jerusalem have tried to join Islamic State in its Syrian or Iraqi fiefdoms.

Over 50 African countries are expected to take part with most of them represented by their heads of state or government. This will be India’s most important and extensive outreach and will set the stage for even more economic and political interaction between India and Africa. African and Indian ties are as old as the story of mankind. Mankind is generally believed to have originated in Africa, from where it migrated to other parts of the world, but first to South Asia across the Arabian peninsula and Southern Iran, about 80,000 years ago, according to the genetic evidence analysed by Luigi Cavalli Sforza and Stephen Oppenheimer. Closer to the present, the common experience of Africa and India with European colonialism gave them language, law, tradition and commerce that strongly bind them, as both regions strive to break out of the cycle of poverty and backwardness. Growing fast The two fastest growing economies, China and India are already major partners in Africa’s growth—12.5% of Africa’s exports are to China, and 4% are to India, which accounts for 5% of China’s imports and 8% of India’s. This will only rise, specially India’s due to its faster growth trajectory and historical and geographical proximity to Africa. Those who ignore Africa can now do so only at their own cost. The Indian growth story since 2000 has taken the country to the third rank in global GDP in purchasing power parity terms. By 2050, India’s GDP is expected to be the largest, as its favourable demographics will endow it with the world’s biggest middle class. In the next four decades, 180 million Indian families will join its middle class, making it the largest expansion ever of the middle class in the world. The global growth story is now jumping continents. Global economic growth engine Within Africa, a handful of countries such as South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, Mozambique, Ghana and Zambia have caught the attention of economists and businessmen alike because of their improved infrastructure, natural resources, pool of skilled manpower and relative political and institutional stability. These countries stand out as the source of the greatest economic opportunity. The International Monetary Fund forecasts that six of the 10 highest growing economies between 2012 and 2017 will be African. Old trade ties Over the centuries, the merchant kingdoms of Sindh, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Konkan and Malabar traded with East African merchant states such as Barawa, Kismayu, Kilwa, Sofala and Mombasa. Consequently the Indian silver rupee or sikka became the currency in that sprawling area and kept this status even during the European colonial period. Swahili which developed as a lingua franca throughout Eastern Africa is a mixture of Arabic and native languages with many loan words from Hindustani. Africa also attracted an Indian diaspora, some of it forced, but which is now very much a part of the nations it has made its own. This population is now in excess of 2.16 million and is well placed in African societies in business, government, teaching and other professions, and now effectively bridges the two regions. India’s modern day bilateral trade with Africa picked up late but despite this has been burgeoning at an exponential pace. It was a relatively modest $1 billion in 1995, but had risen to $35 billion in 2008, and the three following years it had scaled to $45 billion. This year it is expected to be in the region of $70 billion. African exports to India have been growing annually at 32.2% while Indian exports to Africa grew annually at 23.6%. Consequently Africa’s trade surplus with India is rising rapidly, albeit driven in large part by a narrow range of suppliers and commodities. The top six African exporters—Nigeria, South Africa, Angola, Egypt, Algeria and Morocco—account for 89% of total African exports by value to India thanks mainly to exports of oil and gas, ores and gold. Crude oil and gas account for over 66% of exports to India, gold and other precious metals accounting for another 16% of exports, and most of the rest to import of fertilisers from Morocco, Egypt and Algeria. Outside these top six African exporters, though a different picture emerges. India runs a trade surplus with 40 out of the 54 African countries. Trade is significantly more diversified at a product level and almost all exports from India have some degree of technological input. India’s merchandise imports totalled $447.5 billion in 2015. Of this, oil imports accounted for $116.4 billion and gold was $34.4 billion. India has also emerged as a major consumer of oil and gold. This has contributed to the huge expansion of Indian imports from Africa, particularly with West Africa. The population of Africa has more than doubled in just the past three decades, giving it a very youthful demographic profile. More than half the population is less than 25 years old. The population of Africa is currently projected to quadruple in just 90 years, with a growth rate that will make Africa more important than ever to global economy and more. A rapidly growing India not only needs more commodities from Africa but also needs its vast market to pay for them. Africa is thus a great economic opportunity for India, and rightly India has turned its focus towards enhancing its economic ties with Africa. Just as important is the realisation that as India seeks a more important role in world affairs, it cannot remain indifferent to Africa’s 54 members in the United Nations. http://qz.com/532657/why-india-is-rolling-out-the-red-carpet-for-all-54-african-countries/ アルジェリアで検索していたら偶然見つけたニュースです。 Africa is the second-largest and second-most populous continent on earth. Africa is home. It will ensure that most African countries will be “middle income” by 2025. Africans were living on less than $1.25 per day. Average GDP growth rate of 7.4% and Africa of 5.7%. Nearly 10% of Africa’s population escaped absolute poverty as its favourable demographics will endow it with the world’s biggest middle class. Profile are expected that is expected than any. A handful of countries such as South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, Mozambique, Ghana and Zambia have caught the attention of economists and businessmen alike. They are also home. Activity and growth in the two regions have made them the new engines of global growth, along with a somewhat fading China. Establishment and expansion of this trade as the seasonal monsoon winds favoured relatively swift and safe to and fro passages. Scoured the eastern gems made them especially to suit Sofala and Mombasa. Africa is a mixture of Arabic and native and now effectively bridges the two regions at an exponential pace. This year it is expected to be in the region of $70 billion. Angola and gold oil and gas account for over 66% of exports to India from Morocco. All exports from India have some emerged as a major to the huge expansion of Indian imports for them. Africa is thus a great economic opportunity. 東京湾岸ベイエリアには、キラッキラに輝く金目のものしか置いてないの。 |
