...candidate Jürgen Rüttgers: "I expect companies that are making record profits to create jobs." But locals blame the spd. When Müntefering addressed around 1,000 Duisburg workers on May Day, they pelted him with eggs as he stood behind a line of policemen protecting him with riot shields. "This campaign is really fun," the cdu's Rüttgers told a rally last week. "It's nice to have a tailwind for once."

Even then some people in the crowd were motivated not by sympathy but by greed: they tried to steal money from Abu Karam's pockets.

The police had hardly shouted a warning when the smugglers opened fire...

At 10:31 a.m., Judge Ronald Gilbert entered the chamber, followed moments later by Defendants Dominique Prieur, 36, and Alain Mafart, 35. For the two French intelligence agents, the long-awaited preliminary inquiry was finally under way. At issue: whether the pair would have to face trial for murder and arson in the bombing of the Rainbow Warrior, the flagship of the Greenpeace environmental movement, in Auckland harbor last July...
