Ecuador lashes out at Internet critics
Ecuador, having bargained away virtually all its oil production to China in return for low-interest loans to finance President Rafael Correa’s spendthrift populism, is in dire need of a new export. And the president seems to have found one: tyrannical censorship of his critics.

Assange y los problemas de la prensa en Ecuador
Cuando alguien, algún día, abra un salón de la fama dedicado a los grandes momentos en la diplomacia internacional, la competencia por el espacio será feroz. Estoy seguro de que habrá una exhibición sobre Vlad Tepes, el príncipe rumano del siglo XV quien, cuando una delegación de diplomáticos turcos se negó a quitarse sus tocados (sólo en presencia del sultán, dijeron) hizo que sus hombres les clavaran los sombreros en sus cabezas.

Nicaragua hacia el desastre

As the word spread across the world last week that Libya’s weird and homicidal Moammar Gadhafi had breathed his last, the reactions ranged from somber relief to rapturous glee — except in Nicaragua, where President Daniel Ortega and his Sandinista party were plunged into grief by the demise of a longtime pal.
“This is part of the United States’ plan for full spectrum dominance,” barked Miguel D’Escoto, Ortega’s top adviser. “The United States says this is a war on terrorism, but they are the biggest harbor of terrorists in the world. . . . It’s a very sad time in which we’re living.”

Mexico - Juarez: Life in 'Murder City'
He was happy to see shoppers, the Ciudad Juárez tourist official made it clear, and yet the fact that he had time to sit down for a beer with us in the middle of the day made him morose. It was the week between Christmas and New Year's, and in happier times, his city would have been swarming with tourists from El Paso.
