It could not comment on the case that just rocked the whole night.: Osama bin Laden died in Pakistan and the mansion is buried at sea (that is to say that this story was bizarre to bury it in that speed, at sea and on the grounds - yet plausible - the Islamic rites for the treatment of the body). After some discussion via Facebook and Twitter , I decided to compile a brief review here.

Osama bin Laden

Proliferate peace with murder is not a dichotomy very "strange"? The death of Osama bin Laden has to do with the spread of world peace? A terrorist dies, several others are born, the problem is much deeper and more systemic. How to forget that way back in the 1980s, bin Laden and the Taliban were armed, trained and funded by the U.S. government? Even seen a figure that would represent him in Rambo 3 and an alternate ending, Rambo integrates the Afghan rebel forces (below)! hehehe.

Everything goes by the bias, the lens that sees the fact. It is said that the winner is the one who writes history. I understand perfectly well the joy of the American people with the death of Osama. But then to see (and sell) this as an act of peace., The crop changes .. the U.S. spread hatred and terror for a long time. In a different way of al Qaeda terrorists, but spread. Since the saying "The one who plants wind, reaps the storm" ...

Mansion where bin Laden was dead

The U.S. pays the price for being the global hegemon. A price to keep capitalism as a system expanding between countries and to bring "democracy" beyond its borders. It is a price that pays the elite. Today it is purchased the fear, paranoia, wars etc.. They are not required to do so, but that route is defining its strategy to continue as power on the planet lonely, self-determination the sheriff of the world.

Now the sheriff with his great shining star hanging in the chest has the authority to do and undo. Killing a terrorist is sought worldwide problem? It would be a problem if the sheriff wanted to protect the rights of humanity and ruled against the barbarism and bloodshed, putting the Law and Justice as the main pillars of society. Osaminha could not then have a trial and sentence? Even if there was one skit to Saddam Hussein in Iraq or the Nuremberg trials after World War II? See there, my intention is not to defend any of dictators, terrorists or whatever you want to call them (I prefer to continue to call them dictators and terrorists), but to maintain consistency in discourse with the practice.
Look here as were some comments made ​​by a Pakistani on Twitter , which claims to report the movement of the operation that culminated in the death of Osama bin Laden.

I saw the "happiness" of many people in comments here on the Internet at work and happiness in the street ... but why? This will really improve the world? There are naive enough to think that the Taliban, Al Qaeda or whatever how many other groups will emerge in future only be able to be operational with Osama or no Osama, with or fulando Cyclanes? I am not happy nor sad, I worry how things are easily pushed down our throats. And the "funny" is that everything was done in a way that makes this whole story full of bottlenecks, poorly answered questions and transforms it all into one big circus, a new conspiracy theory. See the Globe News and other media showing a montage made ​​by 4chan site as if it were the body of bin Laden .

Entire Obama speech

I can not stand coup and justice into their own hands. Killing in absentia would be a crime against humanity, violations of human rights. But never is when it comes to the winner (whoever he is). Now, buried at sea, as has evidence about his death? He was executed, shot in the neck? He died during the shooting? It could have been captured and brought to trial? Do not spread peace, sowing hatred.

But in the end, that is: "To the victor, the potatoes."

In London, the G20 meeting ends.

In addition to the final declaration of the meeting, which brings together heads of state from developed and developing nations, and the actions to be implemented, something that marked was the treatment given to President Lula, President of the United States, Barack Obama.

Lula said that Obama "is the guy" and that is the "most popular politician on Earth," among other tietagens.

I think this meeting was the most fun, then more delicate than the G20 ever had!

Oh, just remembering that President Lula was the first Latino to President Obama be received at the White House. Interesting things can get out of there (or not)!

Everyone is talking of the U.S. president (who served in the first days of government, one of his campaign promises: in one year the prison of Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, is closed, military courts and the judgments are suspended) but there are not many comments on the discrete Vice Joe Biden.

Although ancient figure in power, Joe Biden also also represents a paradigm shift. The Senator's political career and is one of the most experienced in the U.S. Congress in relation to international agendas. Plus, Joe Biden is a career politician, experienced and, amazingly, live a simple life.

He was elected senator for 29 years the State of Delaware (the fifth youngest senator elected). In the same year he lost his daughter and wife in a car accident. Two children survived and he thought of resigning. He was persuaded to continue in office, was sworn in beside the beds of children and built a solid career in U.S. politics.

He has extensive involvement in foreign policy. He entered the Foreign Relations Committee of the Senate in 1975 and since 2001, the chairs, also acting against drug trafficking, terrorism and international conflict resolution.

Unlike many of our "professional politicians" (and many politicians and Americans in general), Joe Biden did not build an empire of wealth over the years in serving the country. He lives a middle-class life without many luxuries, used to go to the city of Wilmington (where he lives and was caring for the children) to Washington by train, the lights did not have the spotlight pointed, for example, the vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin .

In fact, his sobriety, Biden crushed Palin (even if it was not too hard to do) in the debates that I attended and from what I read of those who did not follow. But swept in a serene and elegant, as now seems to be the Vice President.

With Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, Robert Gates (Defense Secretary) and members of the Office of Preseidência, Obama will have a very experienced team and dedicated to foreign affairs. Maybe so, he can handle in the best way that Bush has failed: International Relations.

International Relations, more than ever, are the key to the continued progress of countries. Be with resolutions of conflict, expansion of trade relations or defense of Human Rights and the Environment, relations between the countries is increasingly narrow. And it is the country with the world's largest economy, internal and not to be jealous tact to handle domestic issues, thus avoiding possible future consequences for other nations, as in a "butterfly effect."

And finally, yesterday the President-elect Barack Hussein Obama was sworn in as the 44th President of the United States of America. (In Portuguese - Part 1 , Part 2 and Part 3 )
