Sorry India, but it’s been over two years and your citizens are still sitting in a Somali hell hole for no good reason. Leaving them to perish is NOT an option.

Since March 2010, the Indian and Yemeni crew of the hijacked vessel MV Iceberg I has sat languishing under horrific conditions in Somalia, largely forgotten by everyone except their families, and at least one crewmember has committed suicide.

The Indian government has responded with complete inaction.

In a report today by Ashutosh Kumar from DNA News Agency, Dadasaheb Jadhav, 50, father of Swapnil comments, “Do you think anyone in the government cares about what happens to my son?”

Swapnil is one of the 13 Indians still held hostage by Somali captors. Jadhav stares blankly at a poster of a ship and waits for a call that has not come for two years.

The report continues:

Could the Zimmerman Bloody Head iPhone 4S photo have been modified? Yes. Easily? No. Not the for the average non-technical iPhone user. Video an explanation of how it could be modified and uploaded back to the iPhone by: Alan Spicer.

And if the person taking the picture lives right there … why would they need to modify the picrture?

Also Zimmerman says “I’m Sorry” to the family in the Bond Hearing … attorney for the Martin Family says it was not a genuine apology but was just a show to get the release on bail accomplished. Zimmerman may have been a little surprised at the snap cross examination and couldn’t remember if he had said he was sorry before during police interrogations. His confusion is construed by some online as meaning that he is lieing. Anyway … video below.

 In other news, on this video, Zimmermans attorney gets the State Attorneys Office Investigator on the stand and asks him if he knows who started the fight. “No”. Do they have evidence of who started the fight? No.




ABC Video from: http://abcnews.go.com/US/george-zimmerman-case-exclusive-photo-shows-bloodied-back/story?id=16177849

 * Alan Spicer says: Holy Shhhhh. I thought no one thought of taking pictures of Zimmerman showing his injuries the night of the incident. The police should have done that. The paramedics should have done that. They both should have done that. I’ve said online that in domestic disputes they take pictures of the injured persons. This was a self defense shooting or a manslaughter … and there were detectives that were called. No one took pictures of the shooter? Anyway I have also read elsewhere that the photographer (cell phone snap shot) was the same witness that says he saw Trayvon on top of Zimmerman. Wow! He took a picture of Zimmermans head all bloody. Good man. (* edit: or woman? and I could be wrong about who it is that gave the photo to ABC …
The photo was reportedly taken with an iPhone by an unnamed person who said they heard the fight, but did not see it. Zimmerman told the photographer to call his wife, and when asked what to say, responded, “Man, just tell her I shot someone.”
 

In a statement, Martin family attorney Benjamin Crump said, “How bad could it have been if they didn’t take him to the hospital [and] didn’t stitch him up. The special prosecutor has seen all the evidence and still believes George Zimmerman murdered Trayvon Martin.”

CNN Video for Task force to look into Florida Law Chapter 776 (self defense - including ’stand your ground’)

(CNN) — Florida authorities have picked 17 people to tackle a heated question brought on by the killing of unarmed teenager Trayvon Martin: whether the state’s “stand your ground law” should be changed.
 
The task force, whose membership was announced Thursday, will hear impassioned arguments and testimony from residents at public meetings across the state. Its first meeting is set for May 1 in Tallahassee.
 
“We’re not walking into this with any preconceived notions,” Gov. Rick Scott said at a news conference. If there are “logical changes to be made,” he said, the task force “will provide those.”
 
It will pass along recommendations to the governor and the Legislature.
 
The group will review Florida Statute Chapter 776, which deals with justifiable use of force, including the stand your ground provision.

Video from CNN on the new Judge for Zimmerman case

(CNN) — The judge who will take over the case of a Florida man accused of shooting an unarmed teenager has high ratings from defense lawyers but isn’t known as a “soft touch,” one Florida attorney said Wednesday.
 
Seminole County Circuit Judge Kenneth Lester Jr. will start by presiding over a bond hearing for George Zimmerman on Friday. Lester was assigned the intensely scrutinized case Wednesday afternoon after the recusal of Judge Jessica Recksiedler, who had been asked to step aside by Zimmerman’s lawyer.
 
 
“He’s a great judge,” Orlando lawyer Diana Tennis told CNN sister network HLN. “He’s been on the bench a really long time. He’s very no-nonsense. He’s a real fast talker, very efficient, gets the cases in and out.”
 
Tennis said Lester is “not known as a soft touch” but has a reputation for listening to both sides of a case.
