WORLD: Here’s a Berlin thug who should be in jail

This thug is thoroughly hateful in an apparently motiveless decision to kick a woman in the back, sending her down a flight of steps in a Berlin subway station. Warning: the video is disturbing. In Cairo, an attack on a Coptic church has left 25 people dead. It is a reminder of the quite profound hatred that exists in that part of the world. And finally, here is Amnesty International, the people who used to worry about getting the persecuted out of jail, trying to block a hydro-electric project in British Columbia. It’s about a burial ground. This footnote to changing times recalls that to build the St. Lawrence Seaway they moved cemeteries to higher ground. That way, it was possible to ship German cars to Toronto really cheap.
