The King of #Bahrain is just about to speak at the #UN. Just watch his doublespeak when he explains his despotic treatment of his people. Let us see if he refrains from blaming foreign intervention…I doubt it!

It looks like #Saleh wants his son to take over in #Yemen. These dictators really like monarchies don’t they. Why is the West not freezing assets?

This fugitive from the law for raping a minor continues to collect prizes, is there no shame? "Roman Polanski to collect festival honour in Zurich" http://bbc.in/nnBabW

I missed hearing the word #Democracy in the press conference in #Libya between President #Sarkozy and PM #Cameron with the transitional leadership. Should have been every third word said.

Galliano has been finned €6,000 for his anti-semitic rants. He should have been given six months working at a Holocaust museum. He may learn or he can drown in it!

Are they the same #Bahrain authorities that killed a boy during demonstrations that asked #Libya’s #Gadaffi to listen to his people? The doublespeak continues!

Phillip Morris is fighting to secure information from Sterling University about tobacco use by thousands of teenagers. Brilliant! The research looks at why they start smoking and what they think about tobacco marketing. If it wasn’t so disgraceful it would be laughable. http://bbc.in/rbJ1Wn

En España, el Papa recientemente alertó contra la "ciencia sin límite" y habla de los abusos de una ciencia sin límite. Mejor la dictadura de la ignorancia y los abusos sin control y sin penalidades. ¡Increíble! http://bit.ly/qzjjo2

Si destruyeron docs oficiales en Castilla-La Mancha, hay que investigarlo. Si fueron docs privados ¿a quién le importa papeles de un puñado de políticos? Tienen que ser más aburridos que sus declaraciones. http://bit.ly/ncMTt0
