New York – More than ten years following the grisly discovery of a total of eleven bodies on New York’s Long Island, the police have caught a suspect. The man was arrested Thursday night in Manhattan as part of the investigation into the so-called Gilgo Beach murders, Suffolk County Police Chief Rodney Harrison said on Friday. “He is currently in police custody.”

“Every day, every night, Ukrainians die, not only soldiers, but also civilians, women, children. You get used to the pictures (…) You get used to seeing death and live on,” said the 47- year-old on Friday at a readers’ forum of the Chemnitz “Freie Presse”. You also get used to explosions.

February 24, 2022 completely changed the lives of people in Ukraine, said Klitschko. Right now, in the summer, plans are being made for the holidays, for life. Ukrainians mightn’t do it that way: “They think from day to day.” On February 24, 2022, Russian troops invaded the neighboring country. Since then, Ukraine has been defending itself once morest the Russian war of aggression.

The German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock defended the military aid for the country attacked by Russia at the forum in front of almost 300 readers. Nobody in the world looks at this war without emotion, said the Green politician. Many had doubts as to whether military aid was the right thing to do. Without tanks and anti-aircraft defenses, there would have been even more casualties. More military support is needed. They can only be hired when the Russian President stops bombing Ukraine and abducting and raping people. This happens every day in the areas that have not yet been liberated. There is murder, torture and rape every day.

France: CEO of Total promoted to officer of the Legion of Honor: the ulcerated left

The Élysée once once more decorated Patrick Pouyanné this Friday. A place of honor that does not pass with several political leaders.

Patrick Pouyanné, CEO of TotalEnergies, was made a Knight of the Legion of Honor in 2015. He was promoted to the rank of officer on the occasion of the July 14 celebration.

In France, several left-wing politicians criticized Friday the promotion to the rank of officer of the Legion of Honor of the CEO of TotalEnergies, whose leader of the Socialists pointed to the “ecocide projects”. Patrick Pouyanné, had already been made a knight of the Legion of Honor in 2015.

“Honoring a boss who continues his ecocide projects, what is the message?” questioned the boss of the Socialist Party, Olivier Faure, on Twitter. “Plunder natural resources, dig an ecocide project in Uganda and South Africa, accumulate billions on the destruction of the planet… And receive the Legion of Honor,” quipped EELV MEP (ecologist) Karima Delli.

“A huge middle finger to climate change”

Green MP Sandrine Rousseau denounced the “absolutely incredible” level “of cynicism, climate denial, feeling of omnipotence and impunity of the President of the Republic”. His colleague Alma Dufour, of the radical left party LFI, saw in it “a huge middle finger to climate change”, while MEP Manon Aubry, also LFI, considered that it was “the Legion of honor for the destruction of the planet and tax evasion”.

Mega oil project in Uganda faces criticism

A regular target of climate activists, TotalEnergies was also questioned earlier this week by the NGO Human Rights Watch, which considered that the oil megaproject led by the French giant in Uganda was a “disaster” for the population, had “devastated the livelihoods of thousands of people” and “will contribute(it) to the global climate crisis”. TotalEnergies had on the contrary affirmed “putting environmental and biodiversity issues as well as the rights of the communities concerned at the center of the project”.
