Death Flights' Suspect Renturns to Home

An Argentine pilot, Julio Alberto Poch, was charged with being on a the helm of the air craft from which 950 drugged and blindfolded prisoners were thrown out alive during the 1976-83 right-wing dictator ship, and was arrested Spetember 23. Many years later, he returns to his home country today.

I can't believe something like chucking people off a plane was going on over there in the 1970s. Why didn't I know about this? It seems so cruel and unusual.

Three Die From Violence in Greek Strike...

On May 5th, protesters of the austerity measures in Grece surronded the parliment building. However, things got a little to rough as a fire bomb hit the bank in Athens, leaving 3 people dead and four others missing. Soon after riot police came and tried to settle the situation.

I understand that they were angry, I would be angry to if my taxes were higher and there were wage freezes, but couldn't they have disscused it in a non violent matter? Why do we always have to resort to throwing dangerous objects?
