The British are afraid of the little ones
A study by the British Institute of Policy Research - IPPR presents an ugly picture of British society, which at the beginning of the 21st century is developing in the shadow of personal insecurity, to the point of fearing minors. The researchers focused on the broad social aspect of "fear of minors PAEDOPHOBIA" which is spreading rapidly in English society and characterizes an older population from all walks of life and different age groups, not necessarily the elderly or old.
On the same subject: a British device for keeping minors away won bIgnoble Award for 2006
The figures show that 1.5 million Britons prefer to move out of their neighborhoods due to growing fear of the minors around them. Another 1.7 million shut themselves up after dark as long as they don't run into a risk arising from the behavior of minors, who many believe are rapidly moving away from traditional values of British society. Among the findings are data comparing the situation in the United Kingdom with European countries, from which it appears that only 39% of adults "would dare to reprimand minors for anti-social behavior" including vandalism of public property, for example buses and shuttle stations, vandalism of public buildings. Parks and statues and other hazards. The respondents said they would not call the police out of fear of physical harm, violent revenge, harassment and threats, mocking curses and harassment. The low percentage stands in comparison to 67% of Germans who would not report harassment and threats from minors, 52% of Spaniards and 50% of Italians.
Among the causes of the deterioration were demographic changes in the structure of British society, the decline in the level of education in public schools, families in which both parents go to work, families haunted by a career race, lack of employment and constant exposure to violence as it is presented in entertainment from movies through electronic game stations to excessive access to the Internet. There are still those who believe that the legislation protecting minors, for example in the question of punishment at school or at home, ignores the rights of adults.

gang war
———————————–
The government of Manitoba in Western Canada is initiating new measures to fight biker gangs and street gangs or organized crime and proposes to treat their members as terrorists who will be tried under a federal law that will be no less severe than anti-terror laws.
The Minister of Justice of the district, led by the New Democratic Party (social democratic, left compared to the Israeli Labor Party) presented an action plan that, if accepted by the federal parliament, would be one of the most extreme in North America.
The main points of the plan: Treatment of murders within a gang, or between "soldiers" of one gang to another "as first degree murder crimes" that require life imprisonment without parole or a shortened sentence (in contrast to the practice of accusing murderers under the section of second degree murder) The proposal also includes new criminal legislation to define Offenses of shooting from a passing vehicle when the shooter "and the target" are members of rival criminal gangs. The law will stipulate in such cases a mandatory lengthy prison sentence that will be imposed on anyone who shoots from a passing vehicle, even if there are no casualties or damage.
Demilitarized zone
The government in Manitoba proposes to declare various areas across Canada, for example schools and their surroundings, playgrounds and places where children and youth hang out, as "free territory from gangs". The entry of gang members into such areas, for any purpose, will constitute an offense for which those convicted will be sent to prison. The revolutionary proposal, which is causing a lot of resonance in Canada and abroad, includes a "Gang Recruiting Prohibition Act" according to which any act of recruitment and solicitation to join a criminal gang of any kind will be "an actual prison offense even if the recruiter and persuader failed to convince the target of the recruitment" The proposal includes expanding the scope of existing criminal laws, with the aim of including special punishment for gang members. In this regard, the Manitoba government proposes to define every gang member who is sent to prison as a "conviction offender", a definition that allows prisoners to be imprisoned even after the end of the prison term ordered by the court. Offenses in this classification are, for example, serial sexual offenses and serial harm to minors.
Surprise reviews
The proposal "draws fire" from human and civil rights protection circles who believe it may constitute an exception to the basic constitution. For this purpose, the Manitoba government proposes to investigate what is being done in other countries and, if necessary, enact laws that will allow surprise inspections in the homes of those "who are known to the police as having a criminal record." The inspections and searches will not require court approval. The Ministries of Justice in the various districts will also be allowed to force prisoners who have finished serving their sentences to "house arrest" or to wear an "electronic ankle brace". The tightening of legislation regarding the possession of weapons without a license will also require a long prison term.
Marijuana growers
Among other things, the proposed laws will include strict treatment of those who grow marijuana "on a commercial scale", for example commercial greenhouses disguised as residences or farms, which are hallmarks of Canadian gang activity, especially biker gangs.
This section of the proposal would expand the tough legislation beyond the realm of biker gangs and organized crime gangs only. Various findings show that a significant portion of the "marijuana farmers" who are exposed and put on trial are not gang members, or habitual criminals, and this is how it happens that the courts "show a measure of mercy" when the accused pleads guilty to the charge of "drug farming" which is a first offense. According to the proposed legislation, the cultivation of marijuana greenhouses on a commercial scale would be a gang activity, even "when the farmer" operated without partners.

Link between agriculture and cancer scares Canadian women
--------------------------------
A study conducted in Windsor, Ontario, states that women with an agricultural background, especially those who work on farms, fall victim to breast cancer at a rate of three to one compared to other women. The study conducted in the industrialized area of Canada, where the automobile industry is located, also states that women who grew up on a farm and came to the automobile industry, are in a risk group that is four times larger than other women. The study, published in the New York Monthly for Science, is considered the first of its kind in defining agriculture as a cause of cancer. Along with the findings, the authors say that despite the facts presented in the study, it should not be stated that every woman who comes from an agricultural background is likely to get breast cancer. The critics of the study say that the risk assessment must include many diverse areas, for example the degree of exposure to fertilizers and chemicals, the type of diet and even the type of soil in this or that area. The research echoes in the lobby circles that fight cancer and help victims, with the immediate conclusion being to remind women, in the accepted "risk age" group "for breast cancer alertness" not to neglect periodic examinations. Along with the public health review, there are also angry reactions. A woman from the province of Saskatchewan commented that "ever since I read about the study I am anxious because I was born and raised on a farm" Attempts to reassure farm women are only partially successful. A man from the province of Alberta commented, "Since my wife heard about the study, she refuses to go out into the field," a refusal that is a problem for farming families.

Canadians learned first hand - Syrian and Canadian and American justice
----------------------
Three Canadian citizens, immigrants of Middle Eastern origin, are demanding that the Conservative government in Ottawa establish a commission of inquiry to investigate why they were handed over to Syrian intelligence about four years ago. The story mentions the case of the Canadian citizen of Syrian origin, Muhammad Arar, who after 9/11 was arrested by the Canadian police and, at the request of the US, was handed over to Syrian intelligence. After Arar's release from Laid Damascus prison and the disclosure of the affair, the government at the time, led by the Liberal Party, faced sharp public criticism, at the end of which the affair was investigated by a judge appointed to head a committee that reached conclusions that cast a heavy shadow on the actions of the Canadian intelligence community.
The new cases that are therefore receiving a media and political echo, deal with refugees of Iraqi origin who arrived in Canada at the time.
The three were arrested following 9/11 and according to them were "deported to Syria only at the request of the US" in a Syrian prison, where they sat for over two years, they were exposed to interrogation under torture and were required to answer according to "questionnaires" provided by the Canadian Embassy in Damascus.
During legal activity in a lawsuit to investigate their arrest, Abdullah Al-Malachi, Ahmed Al-Ma'ati and Mowayd Noor-A'Din from Ontario said, the stories recalled stories of Israelis who were captured or kidnapped by the Syrians before the Six-Day War and when they returned to Israel they described difficult experiences, similar to what The three men from Ontario have a story to tell.
Among other things, those interrogated received prolonged whippings or whippings with "falaka" whips that were placed on their feet, they were also hung from a butcher's hook and stuffed into truck tires, which were rolled around the prison yard while being whipped by the investigators. In addition to these, the three suffered other tortures, when for most of their detention in Syria they were not allowed to meet with representatives of the International Red Cross. The case is called the "USA-Canada-Syria Express" as an allusion to the "Midnight Express" the story of an American drug smuggler
who was imprisoned for a long time in a Turkish prison from where he managed to escape. The story was filmed at the time and was a bestseller and a blockbuster.

In New Zealand they are shocked and ask who you are. Or you?…
---------------
Photographs of a wanted New Zealander as they appeared in ads and newspapers stunned many New Zealanders who saw them and were asked to help the police capture a crook and imposter with an impressive past. The man is (probably) Tyron Chapman, a man in his forties, whose ethnicity is in the Maori community of the natives of New Zealand.
The police want to arrest Tiuron, who usually disguises himself as a woman, after his latest exploits included impersonating the compassionate nurse Tess Chapman, who appeared in hospitals in the Hillmorton area, visited patients, helped with various jobs required by the profession and even showed initiative in routine examinations. The daughter of a hospitalized patient "treated" by nurse Chapman, who proudly wore a pin from one of the nursing schools as well as an ID card as a member of the medical faculty, described her as "a kind and strong woman who behaved professionally and understandingly" among other things, the nurse told about Her happy marriage and successful children. It seems that the "nurse" who has not yet been arrested, has been engaged in nursing since 2002 and in different cases, with a different disguise, was also presented as a doctor with brains in gynecology. After a number of nurses and birth women began to find out who the clumsy nurse was who told her friends that she was... advanced pregnant, the suspect as Tyrone Chapman, who was last seen driving from the parking lot, disappeared.
Police believe he is an acquaintance and veteran impersonator, who spent four-and-a-half years in prison after impersonating police officer Anna Williams as the alleged daughter of former rugby star Maori athlete Motoika Timaru, who in his heyday was a flesh-and-blood legend. The wanted person stole several police cars, uniforms, equipment and documents and mainly radios that helped the "policewoman" appear at various police stations, or at crime and investigation sites, to help colleagues. Among other things, the "policewoman" was asked to accompany drunks who were sent to the detention room, to assist at roadblocks and in chases, while she refrained from jogging or special effort, all this because of... an advanced and restrictive pregnancy. Police officers who worked with the "police officer" Anna Williams, said that she used to joke about the exploits of her husband "Palangi" which in the Maori dialect means "white skin" and complained about an oppressive pregnancy "compared to the previous pregnancy which passed easily and comfortably"
The police also believe that this is also a teacher who one morning, without warning, stopped showing up for work, a nun, a lawyer working in the attorney general's office, and other various odd jobs. The affair arouses interest among screenwriters and film producers and television producers who see a nurse, a doctor, a police officer, a teacher, a nun and more - an amazing story from life.
