(RT took down my initial upload for CR reasons. Somehow Geert’s office managed to fix that. If it disappears again I have alternate sources for the video I will make available, and for which we have permission)

(It looks quite interesting. Let’s hope the Turkish ban on this documentary gets the usual result. A far far wider distribution)

4. Fascinating CNN report on the xenophobia of South Africa against undocumented dreamers
(Video at site. The countries named in the video from which undocumented dreamers are unwelcome appear to be all muslim countries but there is no indication in this article or video that religion is a factor. Only that they are dreamers with no documents for South Africa)
(CNN)Thousands sought refuge in temporary shelters in South Africa after mobs with machetes attacked immigrants in Durban, leaving at least five people dead, an aid group said Thursday.
Heavily armed police have scrambled to stop clashes this week after local residents accused immigrants from other African nations of taking their jobs.
The attacks in Durban killed two immigrants and three South Africans, including a 14-year-old boy, authorities said.
“There has been an outpouring of support from ordinary South Africans who are disgusted with the attacks not only because they are foreign, or African, but because they are fellow human beings,” said Gift of the Givers charity, which is helping those seeking refuge.
“We are preparing aid packages for those who may journey onwards to their home countries.”

#8 – CNN – ISIS claims blast near U.S. Consulate in Iraq
ISIS claimed responsibility for a suicide car bomb attack Friday near the U.S. Consulate in the Kurdish Iraqi city of Irbil, according to several Twitter accounts linked to the terror group.
The U.S. Consulate was the target of the attack, ISIS said.
At least two people were killed and five injured, police said.
Police said the incident began with an explosion of a small improvised bomb in the area. After that blast, a car moved in the direction of the consulate.
Security personnel fired at the car, which exploded but did not reach the consulate, a police official said. It appeared that people inside the car detonated explosives that the vehicle was carrying, according to the police official.
