L’OM a cru aux 8es de Ligue des champions, il n’aura rien du tout: la défaite à la dernière seconde contre Tottenham (2-1), mardi, a qualifié les Anglais, rejoints par Francfort, et éliminé les Marseillais de toutes les Coupes d’Europe.

Deux billets restent à distribuer mercredi lors des ultimes rencontres: l’AC Milan et le RB Leipzig sont les mieux placés pour les obtenir.

Groupe D: immense désillusion pour l’OM

La première mi-temps des Marseillais, quasi-parfaite, laissait entrevoir l’espoir d’un immense bonheur. La seconde fut un calvaire: l’égalisation de Clément Lenglet (54e) pouvait encore envoyer l’OM en Ligue Europa, mais le but à la 95e minute de Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg a fait tout perdre aux Phocéens, quatrièmes du groupe D.

La désillusion est totale, car les hommes d’Igor Tudor auraient pu marquer bien plus d’un but en première période, même si celui de Chancel Mbemba (45e+2) a été plein de rage. 

L’entraîneur croate n’a pas réussi à trouver la clé pour redonner du dynamisme aux Olympiens, terriblement déçus. “Quand on n’arrive pas à gagner, il faut savoir ne pas perdre. Celui-là, il va piquer”, a déploré Jonathan Clauss sur Canal+.

Les Londoniens arrachent la première place du groupe, juste devant l’équipe de Francfort, renversante à Lisbonne chez le Sporting (2-1). L’attaquant français Randal Kolo Muani, qui rêve de Coupe du monde, a marqué le but vainqueur pour le tenant du titre de la Ligue Europa. Les Portugais se consolent avec une qualification pour les barrages de la C3.

Groupe A: première défaite pour Naples, à Liverpool

En pleine confiance jusque là, Naples a connu sa première défaite de la saison sur la pelouse de Liverpool, vainqueur grâce à des buts de Mohamed Salah (85e) et Darwin Nunez (90e+8).

Après une invincibilité de 17 matches toutes compétitions confondues, le Napoli a fini par craquer, mais sa victoire large au match aller (4-1) lui permet d’assurer logiquement la première place du groupe devant les Reds, déjà qualifiés. 

Ces derniers ne seront pas à l’abri au tirage au sort des huitièmes de finale lundi. 

Dans l’autre rencontre, l’Ajax d’Amsterdam a validé sa troisième place en s’imposant à Glasgow chez les Rangers (3-1). 

Groupe B: l’Atlético humilié

Triste automne européen pour l’Atlético Madrid. Complètement dépassés chez le FC Porto (2-1), les Madrilènes ont encaissé un troisième revers en C1 cette saison et dit adieu à toutes les Coupes d’Europe, une première depuis la saison 2010-11.

Avec 5 points, les Colchoneros terminent quatrièmes, dépassés à la différence particulière par le Bayer Leverkusen, qui a tenu Bruges en échec 0-0 et disputera la Ligue Europa en février. 

“On ne mérite pas d’aller en huitièmes ni en Ligue Europa. Si tu n’arrives à gagner qu’un seul match en phase de poules, voilà ce qui se passe”, a réagi Antoine Griezmann au micro de Movistar+ après cette contre-performance.

Les résultats du soir permettent par ailleurs à Porto de prendre la première place du groupe, devant le Club Bruges, grande surprise de cette édition.

Groupe C: six sur six pour le Bayern

Dans un groupe C sans le moindre enjeu, le Bayern Munich est devenu la seule équipe à réaliser un sans faute cette saison, avec une sixième victoire en six matches, contre l’Inter Milan (2-0), déjà qualifiée elle aussi. La performance est d’autant plus belle que le club allemand figurait dans le groupe le plus relevé, avec également le FC Barcelone.

C’est Benjamin Pavard qui a débloqué le compteur bavarois en marquant de la tête (32e), après avoir marqué, déjà, à Barcelone la semaine passée. Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting a doublé la mise (72e).

Assuré de disputer les barrages de la Ligue Europa en février, le Barça a timidement sauvé l’honneur en s’imposant à Plzen (4-2). Sa deuxième victoire européenne de la saison, seulement…

Ben Gvir, l’impétueuse star de l’extrême droite israélienne

Longtemps cantonné au rôle de trublion infréquentable de l’extrême droite, Itamar Ben Gvir est devenu une figure incontournable de la politique en Israël au point de s’imposer comme la possible clé de voûte d’un gouvernement…

Longtemps cantonné au rôle de trublion infréquentable de l’extrême droite, Itamar Ben Gvir est devenu une figure incontournable de la politique en Israël au point de s’imposer comme la possible clé de voûte d’un gouvernement de droite mené par l’ex-Premier ministre Benjamin Netanyahu.

Son alliance avec un autre ténor de la droite nationaliste religieuse est créditée de 14 sièges au Parlement après les législatives de mardi, selon les sondages de sortie des urnes. Ces sièges sont essentiels au projet de gouvernement de droite de M. Netanyahu qui cherche à revenir aux affaires.

Avocat de formation, Itamar Ben Gvir est devenu député en avril 2021, après des années à militer à l’extrême droite.

Ce père de six enfants, qui vit dans une colonie parmi les plus radicales de Cisjordanie occupée, défend l’annexion par Israël de ce territoire où vivent 2,9 millions de Palestiniens.

Il prône également le transfert d’une partie de la population arabe d’Israël, jugée déloyale, vers les pays voisins, et ne craint jamais de se rendre là où les tensions sont les plus fortes, mettant, selon ses détracteurs, le feu aux poudres.

A Jérusalem-Est, il clame “Vive le peuple d’Israël” sur l’esplanade des Mosquées, appelé Mont du Temple dans la tradition juive, épicentre des tensions. En mai 2021, alors que des violences dans le quartier de Cheikh Jarrah, où des familles palestiniennes sont menacées d’expulsion, sont le prélude à un embrasement, il y établit son bureau parlementaire en soutien aux colons.

Mi-octobre cette année, alors que des heurts y opposent à nouveau colons, forces israéliennes et Palestiniens, il s’y rend, sort une arme devant tous, avant de la ranger.

Le lendemain, ce père de 46 ans publie sur Twitter une photo de lui tout sourire avec deux de ses enfants, fusils en plastique en main, avec pour légende: “Après les émeutes (…) j’apprends aux enfants comment se conduire avec les terroristes”.

“Sauver le pays”

Né en banlieue de Jérusalem de parents séfarades, Itamar Ben Gvir puise son idéologie anti-arabe dans celle du rabbin extrémiste Meir Kahane, dont le mouvement Kach a été banni en Israël après l’assassinat en 1994 de 29 Palestiniens en train de prier à Hébron, en Cisjordanie, par un de ses sympathisants, Baruch Goldstein.

Itamar Ben Gvir, qui a milité dans Kach, a longtemps eu un portrait de Goldstein dans son salon mais dit avoir pris quelques distances depuis.

“J’ai changé (…) je disais il y a 20 ans qu’il fallait expulser tous les Arabes, je ne le pense plus, mais je ne vais pas m’excuser”, dit-il dans un entretien à l’AFP à Tel-Aviv. “Je viens sauver le pays; je suis en guerre contre les jihadistes et ceux qui veulent attaquer le pays”.

“Les gens veulent marcher sans risque dans la rue (…) les gens veulent faire une distinction claire entre ceux qui sont loyaux à l’Etat d’Israël –nous n’avons pas de problème avec eux– et ceux qui agissent pour saper l’existence de notre cher pays”, a-t-il encore déclaré mardi soir.

“Ben Gvir a réussi à faire croire qu’il est désormais sinon modéré, au moins un extrémiste plus respectable, ce qu’il n’est pas”, affirme Yossi Klein Halevi, chercheur à l’institut Shalom Hartman. “C’est un démagogue qui s’alimente de la peur, de la frustration et de la colère”.

– Futur ministre? – 

Inculpé des dizaines de fois depuis son adolescence pour incitation à la haine ou des violences, le député, également connu pour ses positions anti-LGBTQ, se vante d’avoir été innocenté dans 46 cas. C’est sur la recommandation des juges qu’il a entrepris des études de droit, pour se défendre lui-même, se targue-t-il.

Mais quand il ne vocifère pas, l’homme au visage mafflu apparaît presque affable, du genre que “les journalistes adorent interviewer”, relève M. Klein Halevi. “Il trouve toujours une bonne citation”.

Pour les législatives de mardi, il s’est de nouveau allié à Bezalel Smotrich au sein de “Sionisme religieux”.

L’ex-Premier ministre Netanyahu, dont le parti est arrivé premier, pourrait leur tendre la main pour former une coalition.

En échange de son soutien, M. Netanyahu pourrait promouvoir M. Ben Gvir au rang de ministre.

Mardi, M. Ben Gvir a indiqué qu’il voulait le ministère de la Sécurité intérieure, ce que M. Netanyahu n’a pas exclu mais qui provoquerait “une agitation continue, de la tension et de la haine dans la rue”, prédit M. Klein Halevi.

Police High Commands backs lawful use of force amid attacks on cops Loop Jamaica

/0 Comments/in /by

Black Immigrant Daily News

While indicating that a total of six police officers have been killed by gunmen since the start of this year, Police Commissioner, Major General Antony Anderson, has declared that law enforcers have the full backing of the Police High Command to take lawful use of force against criminals.

“I’m reminding my men and women that they need to be aware of their surroundings on and off duty,” Anderson urged law enforcers at a police press conference on Tuesday.

“Members are also being reminded that they have the full backing of the Police High Command in the lawful use of force as is necessary to defend themselves, their colleagues, and citizens against any attack,” he declared.

His comments come on the heels of Tuesday morning’s shooting and injury of a police officer in front of the Central Police Station in Kingston.

Two other policemen were, however, shot and killed in less than a week in October.

Speaking on the latest attack on Tuesday, the commissioner said the officer was shot at by two persons on a motorcycle.

“Thankfully, he managed to take evasive action, returned fire, and has been treated at the hospital,” Anderson informed.

Overall, he said it was his desire for the police to win “every single time” they come in armed combat with hoodlums, and then go home to their families.

However, two lawmen – 22-year-old Constable Brian Martin, who was shot dead by gunmen on Saturday, October 15; and 43-year-old Corporal Oliver Mullings, who was slain by hoodlums on Thursday, October 20 – were killed and didn’t make it home.

In relation to Mullings’ family, Anderson said: “The wounds of grief are still fresh, with only in October of 2020 that the mother of his daughter – a sergeant stationed in St Catherine South – left out for duty and perished in a traffic accident.”

Meanwhile, Anderson disclosed that since the start of this year, six policemen have been killed in the course of their duties.

“This is the same figure as at this time last year, but additionally, there have been three members who have been shot and seriously injured during confrontations with gunmen,” he said.

“There are many who have a lot to say about the police use of force.

“The problem is that none of these people are out there on the frontlines being shot at. It is far easier to opine about these things from positions of safety,” Anderson insisted.

WASA aims to improve Tobago supply as reservoirs filled

WASA’s Tobago region head Brian Williams, left, and Jiselle Webster, communications and customer engagement manager, at a WASA press conference in Lowlands on Tuesday. –

Tobago’s water reservoirs are said to be “filled and spilling.”

At a press conference on Tuesday at the Water and Sewerage Authority (WASA) Regional Complex in Lowlands, Senior Manager of Project Implementation Andrew Daniel made the disclosure.

October was a rainy month for the island, particularly last week.

“All of our reservoirs – Hillsborough and the King’s Bay reservoirs, they are both filled and spilling at this point in time, ” Daniel said. “So we are at a 100 per cent capacity, but of course, you must understand that those reservoirs don’t serve the entire island, they only serve certain areas, villages within the island itself.”

Head of WASA, Tobago Region, Brian Williams added that the authority is currently on a mission to ensure that adequate water supply is always readily available. He said one of the elements of the development programme is to create an integrated network.

“Courland water is only feeding Courland, so what we are working on is a network integrating the transmission grid so that we can import/ export from neighbouring zones when the need is required, or to take from areas of plenty, to serve areas of few.”

He noted that there are two major challenges with water supply on the island.

“We have the dry season challenges and we have rainy season challenges. All the customer is usually interested in is that when I turn on my pipe, I get some water – so we have to manage it on the back end.

“There is a shortage in the dry season, but in the rainy season there is an unavailability issue because of the challenges with the treatment.”

He said the island is challenged by the geography, so the programme also includes the development of booster stations as he made mention of a five-year community water improvement programme, which is already in year one.

“This is aimed at improving the level of service to customers in a very targeted way.”

He said it has been recognised that in order for the organisation to improve, there are several infrastructural works that must be undertaken.

He said these have been grouped into projects, to maximise the effectiveness of the process.

Questioned about timelines, he said the programme was developed and the works have already begun.

“It is an ongoing process, but we have targeted the next five years and we have just come to the end of year one. So the initiatives and the benefits that we are speaking to in this moment are the year-one initiatives.”

The programme, he said, is comprehensive. “In terms of the implementation of the items of work – development construction – it is well under way at this point. We’ve passed the planning stages and some of the other stages, we’re working to ensure that as time progresses, that we would be able to have them all implemented and redound to the benefit of the water supply to everybody in Tobago and the wider Trinidad and Tobago.”

Saweetie Says She Is Dropping 2 New Albums By End Of 2022

Black Immigrant Daily News

Saweetie says that her long-awaited album will be dropping at the end of this year, and she is also teasing that a bonus project is set for release ahead of her album called The Single Life, which will address her post-breakup journey from Migos rapper Quavo.

The artist did not share the release date for her album, Pretty B*tch Music, which was initially set for release earlier this year but has since been pushed back to the end of 2022. However, According to Rolling Stone, the rapper recently celebrated the launch of The Single Life with Jack Daniels.

The “Icy Grl” rapper has had a long relationship with Jack Daniels and noted that she loved the brand because “they allow me to do me.” Saweetie, who appeared on Caresha Please last month but did not speak about her breakup with Quavo, says that she’s ready to speak about her dating life and post-breakup.

“I’m excited to share what I went through,” She said. “I think as I was making it, I was more proud to be single. Because I realized that I was growing, I realized that I was elevating. And I realized that I was becoming a better woman,” she says. “It was definitely revolutionary. It was heartbreaking. It was honest. It was a reflection. It’s just me being Saweetie in full transparency,” she disclosed.

Saweetie isn’t the only one speaking about the breakup. Rapper Quavo also re-enacted the famous elevator fight scene between himself and Saweetie in his latest track, “Messy,” featuring the late Takeoff.

Saweetie IG @saweetie

Quavo’s lyrics appear to hint that Saweetie had cheated on him. It’s unclear if Saweetie will speak about those rumors that allege that she slept with Quavo’s cousin Offset, which later saw the men having a falling out. For now, Saweetie says she’s enjoying singlehood and healing.

“If you can’t be by yourself, I think it’s a reflection of how you feel internally,” she says. “Like if you need to look for external sources to feel good internally, then I think that there needs to be a lot of shadow work and self-work done.”

She added that being single also helped her to create better music.

“I realized that I wasn’t writing from an honest standpoint when I first started because I wasn’t that vulnerable. I was very closed off,” she says. “I was raised to be strong, to be tough and not show any weakness.”

As for the date for the new album, Saweetie said, “she’s still in the womb, I haven’t popped her out. I want to thank my fans for patiently waiting. It’s been a year. It’s been a while. I’ve been recording officially for a year, non-stop.”

Earlier this year, Saweetie revealed that she had decided to record new songs and even hinted that after doing her album, she was not satisfied and decided to work and record some more before deciding on what the final tracks will be.
