The European position is even worse, as far as Israel is concerned. Sweden has already announced that it will recognize the Palestinian state. This announcement was followed by the British Parliament's vote to this effect, and other European Union members will probably follow suit, either through their governments or by parliamentary vote. All this criticism is a symptom of a more profound change in attitude toward Israel, with possibly severe policy repercussions in the future.

The first the crew of the Antarctica knew of the disaster was a radio request to help a search and rescue operation. There were bodies in the water 200 miles off the coast of Malta. Two other ships – the Verdi and the Japan – were already at the scene, picking people out of the sea. The Antarctica was swiftly diverted and took command until the arrival of coastguard and naval ships.

Le dimanche 26 octobre en Tunisie ont eu lieu les premières élections législatives depuis l’enclenchement du processus révolutionnaire de 2011. En pleins bouleversements nationaux mais aussi géopolitiques, cet ancrage démocratique témoigne de la consolidation et de la grande modernité de la Révolution tunisienne. Dotée d’une Constitution construite sur une séparation des pouvoirs, la Tunisie engage désormais une nouvelle phase pour demain : celle de la construction d’un nouveau modèle de développement, tourné vers l’épanouissement de la jeunesse, l’émancipation des plus démunis et le renforcement des capacités économiques. C’est l’exigence de tout un peuple, ce sera là sans doute le principal défi du prochain gouvernement.

Dilma Rousseff has won another term as Brazil's president. President Rousseff garnered 51.45% of votes cast. Despite allegations of corruption at the highest levels of her administration — especially regarding the massive state oil firm Petrobras — the incumbent will have another four years to right Brazil's ship after a close campaign against center-right candidate Aecio Neves. It will not be easy. Wall Street knows that. As a result, the markets may punish Brazil's markets Monday morning.
