and the palestinians have the right of return, or so says amnesty international and human rights watch i think we have a rare opportunity now because the americans are conflict agreed on the one hand they can to beat liberal, which they are, at 80% of jews voted for barack obama for president, which is a much higher percentage than latinos, which was about 63%. if you consider most people vote by virtue of their pockets but, american jews should have been voting republican. but 80% voted for democratic candidate for president. they are liberal. exactly why is a separate issue. >> the most liberal group of voters outside african-americans print a >. >> by far. they have a great difficulty reconciling their liberal beliefs with the way israel carries on. that's take for example the segment egested. mubarak commits horrendous crimes, gets overthrown. but until the last moment, and even afterwards, netanyahu was attacking the government for being too soft on the demonstrators. wanted to let mubarak go? young american jews do not want to hear that. they identify with the twitter and faceboo

[ speaking spanish ] >> translator: in addition, law 88, the law for the protection of the national independence and economy of cuba, is another legal aberration by which the government curtails the fundamental and inalienable rights of cuban citizens. this law is nationally and internationally known as the censorship law.

[ speaking spanish ] >> translator: we can be ironic and say that in cuba the government does not violate human right, simply because human right do not exist. the regime of the castro brothers denies cubans their right to rights.

. >> in its latest human rights report, amnesty international criticizes ukraine: it says the judicial system is controlled by the government and it condemns the abuse in the prisons. those in power play down such criticism. yes, we have infringements of human rights -- for instance, when it comes to the right to a healthy life without environmental pollution. and not all our citizens are able to earn an adequate living. those are budget problems, which we're trying to solve together -- with economic reforms. statements like that stun eduard bagirov. but he thinks calls for a boycott of euro 2012 are short- sighted. bagirov is convinced that only dialogue with people from around the world will prompt ukrainians to fight harder for human rights. and that's why he thinks the championship could actually make a difference. now, we all know that our forests are vital for our very survival. they filter our air and our water, but they are also the basis for many industries. that's why economic interests all-too-often take precedence over conservation. a united nations initiative wants us to l
