La policía está investigando las causas de la muerte de Loalwa Braz.

La cantante brasileña Loalwa Braz, vocalista del grupo Kaoma e intérprete de la famosa canción Chorando se foi (“Llorando se fue“) que hizo popular internacionalmente el baile de la lambada, apareció muerta este miércoles 19 de enero.

Su cuerpo calcinado fue hallado en un vehículo cerca de su casa en Saquarema, a unos 100 kilómetros de Río de Janeiro, según medios locales.

Braz tenía 63 años y la policía está investigando las causas de su muerte.

Según la cadena O Globo, dos hombres fueron vistos cerca de su domicilio. Sin embargo, no hay evidencia de que estén relacionado con la muerte de Braz.

La cantante nació en Río de Janeiro y cantaba desde los 13 años. Vivió en Francia hasta 1985 y luego volvió a Brasil, donde permaneció hasta ahora.

Juicio por plagio

El grupo Kaoma estaba formado por siete personas de origen francés y brasileño.

En 1989 lanzaron Chorando se foi, que popularizó el género de la lambada, también conocido como el “baile prohibido”.

La canción vendió millones de copias en todo el mundo.

Sin embargo, el tema era un plagio de “Llorando se fue”, compuesta por los hermanos bolivianos Ulises y Gonzalo Hermosa en 1981 e interpretada por el grupo Los Kjarkas, también boliviano.

En 1989, este último demandó a Kaoma en Francia por los derechos de la canción y el juicio terminó dos años después, con un fallo favorable para los bolivianos.

    via press release:

    NOTICIAS  TELEMUNDO  PRESENTS:

    “MURIENDO POR CRUZAR,” AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE INCREASING NUMBER OF IMMIGRANT DEATHS ALONG THE BORDER, THIS SUNDAY, AUGUST 3 AT 6 P.M./5 C

    Carmen Dominicci and Neida Sandoval present the Telemundo and The Weather Channel co-production

    Miami – July 31, 2014 – Telemundo presents “Muriendo por Cruzar”, a documentary that investigates why increasing numbers of immigrants are dying while trying to cross the US-Mexican border near the city of Falfurrias, Texas, this Sunday, August 3 at 6PM/5 C.  The Telemundo and The Weather Channel co-production, presented by Noticias Telemundo journalists Carmen Dominicci and Neida Sandoval, reveals the obstacles immigrants face once they cross into US territory, including extreme weather conditions, as they try to evade the border patrol.  “Muriendo por Cruzar” is part of Noticias Telemundo’s special coverage of the crisis on the border and immigration reform.

     

    “‘Muriendo por Cruzar’” dares to ask questions that reveal the actual conditions undocumented immigrants face as they try to start a new life in the United States,” said Alina Falcón, Telemundo’s Executive Vice President for News and Alternative Programming.  “Our collaboration with The Weather Channel was very productive. They have a unique expertise in covering the impact of weather on people’s lives, as we do in covering immigration reform and the border crisis. The result is a compelling documentary that exposes a harrowing reality.”

    “Muriendo por Cruzar” is the first co-production by Telemundo and The Weather Channel.  Both networks are part of NBCUniversal.

    Precinct leaders across Iowa will use their own smartphones to transmit the results of next month’s Iowa caucuses.

    Iowa’s Democratic Party plans to use a new Internet-connected smartphone app to help calculate and transmit results during the state’s caucuses next month, Iowa Public Radio and NPR have confirmed.

    Party leaders say they decided to opt for that strategy fully aware of three years’ worth of warnings about Russia’s attack on the 2016 presidential election, in which cyberattacks played a central role.

    Iowa’s complicated caucus process is set to take place Feb. 3 in gymnasiums, churches, recreation centers and other meeting places across the state.

    As opposed to a primary in which voters cast ballots in the same way they would for a general election, Iowa’s caucuses are social affairs; caucusgoers gather in person and pledge their support for a candidate by physically “standing in their corner” in designated parts of a room.

    Iowa’s Democrats hope the new app lets the party get results out to the public quicker, says Troy Price, the chairman of the state party.

    In an interview, Price declined to provide more details about which company or companies designed the app, or about what specific measures have been put in place to guarantee the system’s security.

    But security is a priority, he says.

    The state party worked with the national party’s cybersecurity team, and with Harvard University’s Defending Digital Democracy project, but Price declined to answer directly whether any third party has investigated the app for vulnerabilities, as many cybersecurity experts recommend.

    “We as the party have taken this very seriously, and we know how important it is for us to make sure that our process is secure and that we protect the integrity of the process,” Price says. “We want to make sure we are not relaying information that could be used against us.”

    Unlike many states in which local and state officials oversee the presidential primary election, in Iowa the state party is responsible for administering, staffing and funding the caucuses, relying primarily on trained but unpaid volunteers.

    Cybersecurity experts interviewed by NPR said that the party’s decision to withhold the technical details of its app doesn’t do much to protect the system — and instead makes it hard to have complete confidence in it.

    “The idea of security through obscurity is almost always a mistake,” says Doug Jones, a computer science professor at the University of Iowa and a former caucus precinct leader. “Drawing the blinds on the process leaves us, in the public, in a position where we can’t even assess the competence of the people doing something on our behalf.”

    Cyber concerns

    The Iowa Democrats’ plan is for caucus leaders to compile the results from participants and submit them to the central party via their smartphone apps. In the past, the leaders might have called in the results over the phone.

    Because caucusing is an in-person process, verified by witnesses, there is virtually no risk that a cyberattack on the app could change the results of the caucus and go undetected.

    If the wrong results were reported because of a hack, there would be people from each precinct who could correct it, and paper records.

    But the damage to public confidence would be catastrophic, Jones says, if a hack caused the wrong winner to be called on caucus night and then that announcement had to be retracted.

    “Once you report something, it’s really hard to undo it, no matter how many retractions you print, no matter how many apologies you say, it’s too late,” Jones says. “From that point of view, someone hacking the reporting process, even though its purpose is entirely informal, not intended to have any permanent importance, is something that could be very disruptive.”

    A number of other potential vulnerabilities could also be introduced by using the technology, experts say.

    If the app doesn’t work, either because a denial of service attack clogs the system or for any other reason, then there could be confusion at precincts across the state, and a potential delay on a winner being announced.

    State Dems promise contingency plan

    Price, the state chairman, says Iowa Democrats have “redundancies built into the system,” including a hotline to accept results, but declined to further detail those as well.

    Should the app go down for any length of time, the party would need to receive hundreds, if not thousands, of phone calls from the state’s 1,679 precincts.

    Still, Price says he’s confident in their contingency planning.

    “If there’s a challenge, we’ll be ready with a backup and a backup to that backup and a backup to the backup to the backup,” Price says. “We are fully prepared to make sure that we can get these results in and get those results in accurately.”

    It’s unclear how similar this year’s app is to one developed by Microsoft and a private contractor that was used by both parties in 2016.

    Price did confirm that the app again would be downloaded onto the personal smartphones of the caucus precinct and party leaders, and not onto party-provided hardware.

    That could make the system a more appealing attack target, according to Betsy Cooper, director of the Aspen Tech Policy Hub at the Aspen Institute, because peoples’ phones also may contain sensitive messages, emails and passwords.

    “I sure hope the engineers building it are among the best on the planet,” Cooper says.

    Price said when designing the app, the developer considered the close proximity to potentially sensitive information, but he again didn’t detail exactly how that information would be protected.

    Four years ago, Russian attackers hacked into the email accounts of prominent Democrats and weaponized the information they stole throughout the election year.

    Cooper said that the party could, if it wished, disclose who developed the app or the types of testing that had been done on it without “giving away the keys to the kingdom and making it easier for hackers to get in.”

    “Basic transparency about how it was built, how up to date the security of the app is and how it’s been tested all could be made publicly available with little cost to the DNC,” she says.

    Price said that some details would be unveiled about the app to reporters and the public in the days leading up to the caucuses, but he did not commit to revealing the identity of the developer. Less than three weeks before the caucuses, precinct chairs have not yet gotten access to the app.

    Questions beyond security

    Internet connectivity and tech literacy in Iowa have improved over the past four years. Local party leaders say they expect that more precinct chairs will own smartphones and be more comfortable using an app this cycle than during the previous one.

    Still, in more rural parts of the state, some Iowans have been slow to adopt to technology, according to Gary Gelner, who chairs the Hancock County Democratic Party in north central Iowa. There may be some lingering skepticism.

    “At least everybody with smartphones is gonna do it, I know that,” Gelner says. “You’d be surprised how many people up here got the old flip cellphones.”

    Gelner was skeptical of the party moving to a caucus night reporting app in 2016. Though he’s more optimistic this year, he’s still wary of a process that he says could delay the release of the closely watched results.

    Gelner said one of his precinct chairs in 2016 resorted to phoning in his results, only to find he couldn’t connect.

    “He called in and he tried for half an hour and he couldn’t get through,” Gelner said.

    An insecure ecosystem

    The Iowa Democrats’ app will theoretically allow the state party to report the results much quicker than a phone-based system, and it may also help local party leaders with what’s referred to as “caucus math.”

    A party manual says the app will “automatically calculate the number of delegates” presidential contenders are awarded, based on a formula involving the number of supporters for each candidate, the total number of delegates awarded and overall turnout.

    But as is the case with much in the world of voting technology, things that make voting easier or more efficient can also introduce new unforeseen issues.

    Travis Weipert is the top elections official in Iowa’s most Democratic County, Johnson County, and this cycle he’ll also be volunteering to oversee a caucus site as a precinct chair.

    He says his experiences as an elections administrator make him skeptical of any system that mixes democracy and the Web.

    “As long as you’re staying off the Internet, then there’s no connectivity, your chances of an issue are almost zero,” Weipert said. “It’s when you get on the Internet and security patches haven’t been made that you open yourself up [to hacking].”

    Weipert says there is a tendency for some local officials to underestimate the interest that foreign powers or bad actors may have in their elections. While he says he’s doubtful “rogue states” would target the caucuses, he says it’s something party leaders have to consider.

    This is the second time in the past few months that the Iowa Democratic Party has had cyber experts questioning its commitment to security.

    Last year, under pressure from the Democratic National Committee to increase accessibility at its famously arcane caucuses, the state party proposed a plan to allow Iowans to caucus remotely.

    Internet and phone-based voting systems are considered notoriously insecure however, and the national party said there wasn’t a system available secure enough to support such an idea.

    So that plan was scrapped.

    Jones, the University of Iowa cybersecurity specialist, says transmitting results from precincts to the state party through a smartphone app isn’t as insecure as the virtual caucus plan — but that it’s still insecure for the same reasons.

    “The entire ecosystem of smartphones is extraordinarily poorly secured,” Jones said. “And resting security functions on that ecosystem is something I don’t trust at all.”

    Would ‘Medicare for All’ Save Billions or Cost Billions? – New York Times

    All of these estimates looked at the potential health care bill under a Sanders-style Medicare for all plan. In some estimates, the country would not pay more for health care, but there would still be a drastic shift in who is doing the paying. Individuals and their employers now pay nearly half of the total cost of medical care, but that percentage would fall close to zero, and the percentage paid by the federal government would rise to compensate. Even under Mr. Blahous’s lower estimate, which assumes a reduction in overall health care spending, federal spending on health care would still increase by 10 percent of G.D.P., or more than triple what the government spends on the military.

    El dueño de Pans & Company intenta reconquistar el corazón de Lara Dibildos – Vanitatis
    El dueño de Pans & Company intenta reconquistar el corazón de Lara Dibildos – Vanitatis

    Desde que saltara la noticia de la ruptura entre Lara Dibildos y Joaquín Capel nunca se les había vuelto a ver juntos. El pasado martes ambos acudieron por separado a la fiesta de despedida de solteros que Julián Porras y Olivia de Borbón celebraron en la discoteca Gabana. Joaquín llegó solo para brindar con el futuro matrimonio. Dentro de la sala coincidió con Fran Murcia, exmarido de Lara y padre de su hijo, con el que se saludó amistosamente. Minutos después llegaba a la discoteca Lara Dibildos, vestida con un impresionante vestido rojo. Nada más bajar las escaleras que dan acceso a la sala, la hija de Laura Valenzuela se topó con Murcia, al que no saludó ni cruzó palabra en ningún momento. Para Lara era una noche especial, no sólo por ser su cumpleaños, sino porque era la primera vez que coincidía públicamente con el que había sido su pareja.

    A pesar de tener una mesa reservada a su nombre para ver la actuación de Juan Peña, Joaquín Capel no dudó en sentarse en la misma en la que estaban Lara y algunos amigos que tienen en común. La expareja no sólo se saludaron, sino que estuvieron hablando distendidamente. Uno de los momentos más emotivos fue cuando el cantante jerezano invitó a subir al escenario a Lara Dibildos para cantarle el cumpleaños feliz bajo la atenta mirada de su expareja.

    Desde que el empresario abandonara la casa de la actriz hace unas semanas tras hacerse público que ambos habían roto por su incompatibilidad de caracteres en la convivencia, parece que poco a poco se está produciendo un acercamiento entre ellos. Al parecer no sólo han coincidido en varios lugares de ocio junto con otros amigos, sino que Joaquín Capel no deja de enviar mensajes a Lara para volver a conquistarla. Mensajes que, según el entorno de la actriz, no tienen respuesta en muchas ocasiones. Sin embargo, aseguran que, a pesar de que Lara se muestra firme y decidida en su decisión, no sería extraño que les volvamos a ver juntos nuevamente.

    Traffic police had to direct vehicles by hand after lights went off

    A huge power outage has hit the Indonesian capital Jakarta and surrounding cities, potentially affecting tens of millions of people.

    The failure began at about midday local time (0500 GMT) and it could take hours for power to be restored.

    Traffic lights switched off in some areas of Jakarta, worsening congestion in a city notorious for traffic.

    Passengers on the city’s newly opened metro system were forced to evacuate with commuter trains also hit.

    “The train stopped all of a sudden, we had to wait for a long time,” Ella Wasila, a metro passenger told AFP.

    “There were so many babies in the coach, they were crying, and people were shouting ‘open the door’.”

    Nearly 10 million people live in Jakarta, with a further 20 million living in the surrounding cities, Outages have also hit neighbouring provinces, home to tens of millions more.

    The international airport in Jakarta is unaffected while hospitals have been using generators,

    State power giant PLN has apologised and blamed a fault at a major power plant.

    Trump’s threat to close the border was just a trap for Democrats – Washington Examiner
    Trump’s threat to close the border was just a trap for Democrats – Washington Examiner

    President Trump had been vocally considering shutting down the southern border until he scaled back slightly on Thursday, giving Mexico one year to decide whether or not they’ll comply with his demands. His White House team probably talked him back from the ledge, since it seems he’s the only one in his own administration willing to take such a drastic step.

    Indeed, senior staffers and Department of Homeland Security officials view closing ports of entry, what Trump calls a border shutdown, as a method of “last resort.” It’s not often that Trump entirely turns his back on his administration’s 2 cents, but when he does, it’s generally over immigration. This isn’t the first threat of this nature from Trump, and surely it won’t be the last, because, as is evident by his recent backtrack, the president’s not actually serious about shutting down the border. He really just wants the immigration debate to be framed in his favor. He hopes this will all be seen as a dichotomy between his pro-American immigration policy and the Democrats’ anti-American one.

    It’s easy to see how empty Trump’s threat was: If he were to actually close the border, there would be dire economic consequences. It’s estimated there’s $1.5 billion worth of commerce occurring along the southern border every day. Meanwhile, from an immigration standpoint, nearly 500,000 people cross the border legally each day, and that’s just through Texas ports. With a border closure, shipments of vegetables and other goods would be halted, truck drivers blocked and stranded, and tourists denied passage of any kind. Trump loves to claim credit for the strong economy, but if he were to close the border, a plunge in stocks would most certainly follow.

    It would punish a lot of innocent people, and Trump knows it. Following through on this threat as a political statement would have been extremely costly for Trump. But a claim like this one does force the Democrats who are running for president to reveal their stance on immigration, opening them up to attacks from Trump.

    After all, President Trump’s 2016 campaign relied on the anxieties of middle America over immigrants taking jobs. He likely won’t stray from this strategy for the 2020 election, which is news to no one, including Democrats. But as Trump opponents elaborate on their positions in response to his pressure, the president is hoping they fall into his rhetorical trap by labeling themselves as open-border activists or “soft on crime” for their tolerance toward illegal immigration.

    Trump recently unleashed a characteristic Twitter storm on the subject, prompting Democratic presidential hopefuls Beto O’Rourke, the former congressman from Texas, and Julián Castro, the former secretary of Housing and Urban Development under President Barack Obama, to respond with their own sweeping immigration plans. For his part, Castro divulged that he wouldn’t consider an immigrant entering the U.S. without papers, no matter the circumstance, a federal crime. Trump will have a field day tearing down this proposal by attempting to rely on his “tough on crime” mentality, even though the electorate has steered away from this Reagan-era viewpoint.

    O’Rourke is a native of El Paso, Texas, a city experiencing overcrowding due to customs and Border Patrol agents being reassigned to take care of unauthorized migrants. O’Rourke has highlighted Trump’s naive understanding on this matter by emphasizing that immigration policy is actually heavily tied to foreign policy, a reality Trump likes to avoid, evidenced by his recent call to cut off aid to Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador, which would only exacerbate the flow of immigrants toward our borders.

    One other presidential hopeful, Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., already tried to distance herself from Trump by passionately advocating for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals recipients, known as “Dreamers.” On April 3, she introduced a bill to Congress, perhaps intended to differentiate herself from primary opponent O’Rourke, that would allow “Dreamers” to work as staffers or interns in Congress.

    The immigration debate will be the main focus of the 2020 election, which means Democrats must fine-tune their positions on immigration in order not to fall into Trump’s rhetorical trap. But we should all remember that Trump’s first two years of hard-line stances on immigration hasn’t actually alleviated the biggest source of conservative apprehension: the surge in migration. In fact, March 2019 saw the highest migrant rate since 2008.

    Who knows, Trump could easily be provoked once again to follow through on his threat, even if his original intent was to force Democrats to show their cards. But if he does, he’s not going to do anything but hurt his chances at a 2020 victory — and the everyday Americans he claims to champion.

    Confirman que Farc dinamitó torre de energía en Buenaventura – El Pais – Cali Colombia (Comunicado de prensa)
    Confirman que Farc dinamitó torre de energía en Buenaventura – El Pais – Cali Colombia (Comunicado de prensa)

    La empresa Epsa informó que realizará un sobrevuelo para determinar que ocasionó la falla en el circuito.
    Elpais.com.co

    La Fuerza Naval del Pacífico confirmó que el apagón eléctrico que se produjo hacia las 9:45 de la mañana de hoy  Buenaventura se debío a un atentado de las Farc en la torre 17 de la empresa de energía Epsa. 

    De acuerdo con información de la Naval, la torre habría sido dinamitada por el Frente 30 de las Farc. En la tarde de hoy un equipo de antiexplosivos realiza operaciones para que los funcionarios de Epsa puedan ingresar a la zona a restaurar el fluido eléctrico. 

    Según informaciones preliminares de la Empresa de Energía del Pacífico, las explosiones fueron en el sector de Agua Clara, zona rural de Buenaventura, y los daños afectan a 400 mil personas 

    La Epsa y las autoridades realizaron un sobrevuelo en la zona y se detectó que la torre número 17 ubicada a 27 kilómetros del puerto fue derribada.

    A partir de este momento, la empresa de energía, activó su plan de contingencia para atender la situación y lograr restablecer el servicio lo antes posible.

    La empresa explicó las dificultades que enfrentan tras el atentado

    Se informa que inmediatamente Buenaventura se quedó sin energía una cuadrilla de cerca de 25 técnicos empezaron a realizar maniobras para lograr brindar servicio a través del circuito Loboguerreo a las cargas esenciales del municipio, es decir, las instituciones prestadoras de salud y los organismos de seguridad, como hospitales, clínicas, la Policía, la Armada Nacional y la cárcel.

    Esto no ha sido posible debido a las dificultades que presenta dicho circuito a la altura de Cisneros, donde hay presencia de minería y una considerable cantidad de conexiones ilegales, que afectan el normal funcionamiento de esta alternativa a través de la cual en otras oportunidades se ha logrado brindarle el suministro a estas entidades.

    La empresa espera el acompañamiento de la administración municipal de Buenaventura y los organismos de seguridad para solucionar esta situación y evitar que se ponga en riesgo la vida de los habitantes.

    Finalmente, informó que el tiempo de restablecimiento del servicio dependerá de la hora en la que los organismos de seguridad tengan asegurada la zona y autoricen el ingreso del personal operativo, y de las condiciones climatológicas del área, que presenta altos índices de lluviosidad y además es de difícil acceso.

    Israel’s Netanyahu, a political Houdini, is facing his toughest escape act yet – The Washington Post
    Israel’s Netanyahu, a political Houdini, is facing his toughest escape act yet – The Washington Post

    Loveday Morris

    Ruth Eglash

    April 5 at 1:36 PM

    JERUSALEM — When Israel’s top satire show launched its recent election special, it depicted an impersonator of Prime Minister Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu breaking out of chains in a Houdini-like feat. With a smirk he turned to exit, before realizing his foot was still shackled.

    Netanyahu has escaped many a peril in the quarter-century that he has been a dominant ­figure in Israeli politics, including 13 years as prime minister.

    There was the first “Bibigate,” when he dramatically confessed an extramarital affair to the Israeli public, and the second, when he was investigated during his first year in office amid allegations of influence peddling. More investigations would follow over the years as stories of extravagant spending by him and his wife, allegedly at taxpayers’ expense, filled Israeli newspapers.

    There was the $1,600 bill for his hairstyling and $1,750 for makeup on a 2015 New York trip. There was the $127,000 spent on installing a double bed on an El Al plane for a five-hour flight to London and a $2,700 ice-cream budget. 

    And still he has survived, denying all accusations of wrongdoing, staying put when others might have resigned and winning a pair of elections in which he was widely written off.

    But the latest corruption cases, which involve allegations of fraud, breach of trust and bribery, have overshadowed this year’s election campaign and left Israelis wondering whether he could be caught in that last shackle. Just days before Israelis vote on Tuesday, polls suggest the prime minister is in a very tight race with his main rival.

    If he prevails and stays in office through mid-July, Netanyahu will become Israel’s longest-serving prime minister, surpassing the country’s founding father, David Ben-Gurion. But the question remains: Will his legal troubles catch up with him, or can he escape them once more?

    “The guy has the best staying power in politics,” said Eyal Arad, an Israeli political strategist who was an adviser to Netanyahu in the 1980s and 1990s. “He falls, he recuperates, but then he goes on to the next battle.”

    That, in part, Arad said, comes from his unshakable belief in himself. 

    “He believes that he is the only one who is capable to lead Israel,” he said. “He absolutely believes that.” 

    That self-belief has only grown over the years, former advisers say, as Netanyahu has defied the odds to stay in power.

    Last time around, in the 2015 election, Netanyahu had been widely expected to lose. Aron Shaviv, his campaign adviser, recalls how five days before the vote, defeat seemed imminent. 

    “We were staring down the barrel of a 5 or 6 percent loss,” Shaviv said. But Netanyahu remained “cool and calculated,” he said. “Straight away we got down to business to work through all the options of this serious problem.”

    Netanyahu would call him throughout the night. If Shaviv screened the calls on his cellphone, Netanyahu would call on the house phone and keep ringing until Shaviv picked up.

    “My wife always used to joke that she felt like she was in bed with him,” he said. “He has such a deep voice, she could still hear him through the phone.” 

    To win, Netanyahu had to do something that did not come naturally — acknowledge he was likely to lose. Campaign research showed that right-wing Israelis were leaning toward smaller parties instead of Netanyahu’s Likud, confident that Netanyahu would still be the prime minister. He was not quick to heed the warnings.

    “Bibi being Bibi said: ‘I don’t trust you. But I do trust the data, so prove it to me,’ ” Shaviv said. He watched five hours of focus-group videos before he was convinced. 

    Shaviv said Netanyahu immediately went out to do what he does best: He conducted more than 40 media interviews to warn supporters that he was about to lose — and that the left would win. 

    Then, on election day, his campaign released a last-minute video declaring that Israeli Arabs were flocking to the polls, potentially threatening to thwart his reelection. The video, which was condemned by many Israelis as racist but may have succeeded in spurring his supporters to vote, was entirely the prime minister’s call, Shaviv recalled.

    It worked, and Netanyahu ultimately won. 

    “He felt that almost with his bare hands, he managed to win,” said Aviv Bushinsky, a former adviser and chief of staff to the prime minister.

    Netanyahu’s decision to release that video fits a long pattern of divisive politics, critics say, and early on those politics almost tripped him up.

    When Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin was assassinated by an ultranationalist Israeli in 1995, Netanyahu, as leader of the opposition, was blamed by some Israelis, including members of Rabin’s family, for stirring up an atmosphere of hate and fear. Many political observers thought he was too tarnished to defeat Rabin’s successor, Labor Party leader Shimon Peres, in the election a year later.

    “After Rabin’s assassination, everyone thought it would be a walk in the park for Peres,” recalled Nahum Barnea, a veteran Israeli journalist. “Nobody believed Netanyahu had a chance.” 

    But when Palestinian suicide bombers began blowing up buses and restaurants in Israel, the shine came off the peace process championed by Rabin and Peres. Public opinion swung toward Netanyahu.

    Barnea said Netanyahu’s skills as a public speaker also helped him turn the campaign around. 

    Shortly before the election, Netanyahu participated in a televised debate, prerecorded at the Labor Party headquarters in Tel Aviv. Barnea watched the session live with about a dozen other journalists. They thought Netanyahu performed well. Then, when Barnea reviewed the recording on television, Peres came off even worse, he said. 

    “I ran from the studio to our office,” Barnea said. “I went to the editor in chief and said Bibi won the debate.” 

    Netanyahu would go on to win the election with a razor-thin majority. 

    Netanyahu was not originally tapped to be the star of his family, growing up in the shadow of his older brother Yonatan, or Yoni, whom he idolized. But Yoni was killed in 1976, the lone Israeli military casualty in an operation to rescue more than 100 Israeli passengers and a flight crew held hostage at Uganda’s Entebbe Airport after their plane was hijacked. 

    If Yoni had lived, Netanyahu might have stayed in the United States — where he was partly raised and attended Harvard and MIT — and never entered politics. But he did, and despite that privileged upbringing, he went on to find a fierce following among Israel’s blue-collar voters.

    Painting himself as a repeated underdog who has been unfairly targeted by the elitist establishment, Netanyahu has tapped into the resentment of Israel’s Mizrahi Jews, whose roots mostly lie in other Middle Eastern and North African countries and who felt shut out of power in Israel’s early years by Ashkenazi Jews of European ancestry.

    While Netanyahu is also of Ashkenazi stock, his family had felt alienated from Israel’s Zionist establishment. Netanyahu’s father, Benzion, had been a follower of the revisionist leader Binyamin Zeev Jabotinsky, a rival of left-leaning socialists who dominated the early Zionist movement. 

    Netanyahu has survived in part by telling his political base that it is us against them, the right vs. the weak, dangerous and Arab-loving left. 

    “Netanyahu’s greatest achievement is keeping his base disgruntled and dissatisfied and angry despite Likud having been in power for three-quarters of the last four decades,” said Anshel Pfeffer, author of “Bibi: The Turbulent Life and Times of Benjamin Netanyahu.” “Netanyahu’s biggest political asset is that he knows how to latch onto his voters’ phobias and keep them alive.”

    Yet despite presenting himself as a candidate of the people, he has a love for the high life, which biographers say is his Achilles’ heel.

    Over the years, Israeli newspapers have highlighted his penchant for leaving restaurants without picking up the bill and reported scintillating details of the extravagant habits of the Netanyahus. 

    Two months ago, the Israeli attorney general decided to charge him in three criminal cases, pending a hearing in which he can present his defense. One of those cases centers on allegations that he and his wife, Sara, received gifts of cigars and jewelry worth around $280,000 in exchange for ­political favors.

    But Netanyahu, who denies all charges, has built a loyal base that supports him no matter what and can deliver enough votes to keep him atop Israel’s fragmented politics.

    “He just needs to keep his right-wing base voting for him, which he’s done very effectively,” Arad said.

    The personal stakes for Netanyahu are higher in this election than ever before. 

    “He understands that the only good way, from his perspective, to fight his legal battles is from power,” Bushinsky said.

    Others might have resigned already. Rabin stepped aside in his first term when it emerged that he still had a U.S. bank account several years after working at the Israeli Embassy in Washington, in contravention of Israeli currency regulations. 

    Netanyahu’s most recent predecessor, Ehud Olmert, who stepped down when he was indicted, served 16 months in jail for corruption.

    But Netanyahu is cut from different cloth and has vowed to stay in office even if he is indicted.

    Bushinsky said that if Netanyahu is in power, he is in a stronger position to influence the time frame of the corruption investigations and could even push for legislation to prevent charges being pursued against a sitting prime minister.

    He has beaten the legal rap each time since the first criminal investigation back in 1997. At the time, police recommended he be indicted after he was accused of appointing an attorney general who, in return for political support, agreed to be lenient in pursuing an extortion case against one of the prime minister’s political allies.

    In an April 1997 editorial, The Washington Post asked, “Can Mr. Netanyahu hang on?” The editorial noted that less than a year into office he was already “hip-deep” in controversy. But already, he had a reputation as a survivor, if not an escape artist.

    “The prudent expectation must be that Mr. Netanyahu will somehow come through,” the Post editorial said.

    En sus nuevas oficinas, Cristina tendrá una agencia de noticias K – Clarín.com
    En sus nuevas oficinas, Cristina tendrá una agencia de noticias K – Clarín.com

    Se acabaron las cadenas nacionales, los medios de comunicación públicos ya no reproducen el relato K y la cadena paraoficial de medios amigos se redujo sensiblemente. Pero la ex Presidenta está preparando el desembarco en sus nuevas oficinas porteñas donde funcionará una agencia de noticias para difundir la actividad del kirchnerismo y replicar a las medidas y el discurso macrista.

    Instituto Patria se denominará el refugio de Cristina Kirchner que se está terminando de acondicionar en un petit hotel de Rodríguez Peña 80, a media cuadra de Plaza Congreso, que fue la sede argentina de la multinacional sueca de rodamientos y materiales de construcción SKF y donde funcionó el año pasado la escuela de gobierno del Frente Renovador que conducía Roberto Lavagna.

    Cristina tendrá allí una oficina amplia con balcón a la calle y también tendrán sus despachos dos laderos históricos de los Kirchner: el ex secretario de Inteligencia, Oscar Parrilli, y el ex candidato a vicepresidente, Carlos Zannini. 

    Pero el lugar estratégico para la defensa del relato K funcionará en la tercera planta. Allí, confirmaron a Clarín fuentes cercanas a la ex Presidenta, funcionará una agencia de noticias que producirá contenido gráfico y audivisual, de la que estará a cargo Tristán Bauer.

    El ex director de Radio y Televisión Argentina (RTA) fue el encargado de garantizar la difusión del relato K en los canales de TV del Estado durante los gobiernos de Néstor y Cristina. Bauer hasta se hacía cargo del control de cámaras en las transmisiones de algunos actos de la ex Presidenta -como las Asambleas Legislativas- para garantizar una estética favorable.

    En las mismas oficinas, según confiaron a este diario, trabajará otro personaje que fue clave en la comunicación K más combativa: la bloguera Anita Montanaro, que durante el Gobierno de Cristina manejó la cuenta oficial de Twitter de la Casa Rosada con un tono pendenciero, denostando a dirigentes opositores y periodistas.

    Quien también tendrá despacho en el Instituto Patria será la ex ministra de Cultura Teresa Parodi, que se encargará de coordinar una agenda cultural para el salón de actividades del nuevo búnker K. La semana pasada, Parodi estuvo cantando en el homenaje que Alicia Kirchner realizó en la Casa de Santa Cruz el día que su hermano hubiese cumplido 66 años.

    Cristina voló a Santa Cruz el mismo día que dejó la Presidencia y desapareció de la escena pública. Desde entonces, alternó su descanso entre sus casas de Río Gallegos y El Calafate. Se la pudo ver en algunos videos que difundieron simpatizantes que se acercaron a saludarla y apenas utilizó sus cuentas en las redes sociales para difundir algunos artículos críticos sobre las medidas tomadas por Macri escritos por ex funcionarios de su gobierno.

    El viernes pasado, el juez Claudio Bonadio la citó a declaración indagatoria para el 13 de abril en la causa en que se investiga la venta de dólar futuro por debajo de su valor en los últimos días de su Gobierno. Agrupaciones K ya comenzaron a organizar una movilización para acompañar ese día a la Presidenta a los tribunales de Comodoro Py. Podría ser la primera de una serie de causas en la que Cristina podría ser citada a declarar. El kirchnerismo ya habla de una “persecución judicial”.

    Quienes se encargan de ultimar los detalles del Instituto Patria estiman que la Presidenta comenzará a utilizar su nueva oficina durante marzo y que iría incrementando su actividad “a medida que se deteriore la imagen de Macri” que, según los números que manejan, “ya está en descenso”. Desde allí intentaría labrar una candidatura legislativa para el año próximo.

    Mueller report to be ‘almost certain to be anti-climactic,’ sources tell ABC’s Karl – Fox News
    Mueller report to be ‘almost certain to be anti-climactic,’ sources tell ABC’s Karl – Fox News

    Reports: Mueller could complete Russia investigation by mid-February

    Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s long-awaited report may not be as shocking as it has been built up to be – at least according to ABC News White House correspondent Jonathan Karl.

    Speaking to host George Stephanopoulos Sunday on “This Week,” Karl said that he’s been told by sources close to the investigation that the report into Russian interference in the 2016 election and any possible collusion between President Trump’s campaign and Moscow is “almost certain to be anti-climactic.”

    “There have been expectations that have been building, of course, for over a year,” Karl told Stephanopoulos. “But people who are closest to what Mueller has been doing, interacting with the special counsel, caution me that this report is almost certain to be anti-climactic.”

    TRUMP’S AG PICK WILLIAM BARR SAYS IT IS ‘VITALLY IMPORTANT’ THAT MUELLER’S RUSSIA INVESTIGATION CONTINUE

    “If you look at what the FBI was investigating in that New York Times report, you look at what they were investigating, Mueller did not go anywhere with that investigation,” Karl continued. “He has been writing his report in real time through these indictments and we have seen nothing from Mueller on the central question of, was there any coordination, collusion, with the Russians in the effort to meddle in the elections? Or was there even any knowledge on the part of the president or anybody in his campaign with what the Russians were doing, there’s been no indication of that.”

    Karl’s comments come two days after the New York Times reported that the FBI opened an investigation into whether Trump was working on behalf of Russia in 2017 following the president’s dismissal of former FBI director James Comey.

    Trump called Fox News’ Jeanine Pirro and told her that the newspaper’s report was “insulting.”

    “I think it’s the most insulting thing I’ve ever been asked,” Trump told her when asked if he had ever worked on behalf of Russia. “I think it’s the most insulting article I’ve ever had written.”
