narco-saint

Israel's attorney general said Tuesday that he intends to indict President Moshe Katsav on charges of: rape, harassment, sexual relations involving the abuse of power, obstruction of justice, and, of course, illegally accepting gifts. I think they need a new president there.

A family has built what could be the first public shrine in Mexico City to honnor Jesus Malverde, Mexico's so-called narco-saint, revered by many of the nation's drug traffickers.

Location, location, location. Almost anywhere else, the tiny dilapidated studio wouldn't attract much more than mice. But this is London, and the 77-square-foot former storage room, slightly bigger than a prison cell, and without electricity, is sold for $335,000. It's a bargain.

Those were the headlines for today. Some people in power, like Israels president Moshe Katsav, think they can get away with anything. No, that is thankfully not the case. Even Mr. Katsav is not allowed to rape and intimidate his female employees. Israel's attorney general is going with blazing guns after his own president, and this will take away the attention from their war against Lebanon last year, which was essentially a big failure. The Hezbollah is stronger then ever, the missing soldiers are still somewhere in Lebanon, or Iran, or... I don't know, and the Israelis don't know either. I hope that the punishment for: rape, harassment, sexual relations involving the abuse of power, obstruction of justice, and, of course, illegally accepting gifts, is 48 hours of comunity services as a street sweaper in one of Haifa's poorest neighbourhoods. That will learn him a lesson.

Something else. A very good friend of mine, Wong from Malaysia, send me an e-mail. The subject was: ICE. In Case of Emercengy. Please list the number you want people to call if something happened to you, on your mobile phone under these three letters. ICE. When something happens to you, and you are carying your mobile phone, then people know who to contact from all of those hundreds of numbers you've stored on your phone. ICE, In case of emercency.

But, as usual, I really, really don't care whatever you do, for whatever reason, as long as you don't forget to love a soldier. And, say YES to Hillary as president of the U.S.A. They need a woman's tuch. Love, Jenifer Bloom. bloomjenifer@yahoo.co.uk
