Disclaimer & comment rulesA very commendable statement from Rousseff.
Jul 05th, 2012 - 05:19 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Unfortunately, she was also a Cell Leader, the very cell that was responsible for the murder of an Amercian Military Officer in front of his wife and children. She claims she did not murder anyone, but she was in charge.
That, more than anything else, led to the frosty reception she had in the USA. If ever the general public got hold of this she would would get a very hot reception at her next visit: if she was let into the country at all that is.
Also a major reason why the convicted Italian international terrorist is allowed to stay in Brasil, even though Italy have asked forcefully for his extradition.

Personally, I would have shook him by the throat until he was dead.
2 Is Tony Blair in jail or is he a peace envoy?

Jul 07th, 2012 - 07:44 am - Link - Report abuse 0I don't think Blair will ever stand trial.
He is a most unlikely peace envoy.
This is a reversal of black-white of Orwellian proportions.
The English have a phrase for it: 'Poacher turned gamekeeper'. I wouldn't want him anywhere near my remaining assets.
If he and his government had paid greater attention to the looming catastrophe in the economy rather than in finding justification for the USA war in the middle east, he might have retained a smidgeon of credibility.
For me, he is a long-busted flush.

As Presidente (or Presidenta as she prefers) of Brazil Dilma has dipolmatic immunity and as such can not be refused entry.

Jul 14th, 2012 - 09:40 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I do not wish for Dilma to be refused any accolade by the USA, if you think I do you have misunderstood my post, please read it again.
With regard to NOT being allowed in, it does not matter what she calls herself. If the American public rioted in Pensylvania Avenue, etc. calling for her barring from the country, the only place she could consider going would be the UN.
Anyway, Dilma is far from stupid and would not offend the American public if this thing blew up in her face; she just would not go.
