...Cambodians interviewed, fewer than one in 10 knew that five regime suspects have been awaiting trial. And only 3.3% of respondents could name the court's five detainees: Duch, former Khmer Rouge foreign minister Ieng Sary, Sary's wife, former social affairs minister Ieng Thirith, former "Brother Number Two" Nuon Chea, and the regime's former head of state, Khieu Samphan...

"For too long, Zimbabwe has endured violent political polarization," he told a rally of thousands in the Zimbabwean capital of Harare. "This must end today. We can no longer afford the violence of brother on brother. Let's put our differences aside. Everyone is hungry. We have to heal our nation by forgiving our brother."
