LIONEL MESSI’S BISHT

 




Argentina has just won the World Cup. Messi is ready to raise the cup that any football fan dreams of. But ... wait! The Emir covers the Argentine captain with a black cape, the Bisht. That's rather weird.  So I start wondering what that piece of clothing is or means. Do you know?  I'll tell you about it soon, but first, let's step back for a while.

WORLD’S MOST WANTED

 


 Recently I happened to read an article about Interpol, the police who fight international crime. When a person commits a crime in a country but is not found in that same place, the local authorities send a report to Interpol. The criminal becomes a fugitive and is considered a menace to the world.

So, I made a research about who are (or were)  the most wanted fugitives in the world because I think it’s important to know who can potentially hide among us.

Since there are so many, I had to pick  up a few and I decided to write about 5 of them.

CABLEGATE AND THE STORY OF JULIAN ASSANGE

 

 


 On November 28th, 2010 theWikiLeaks website published more than 250,000 secret documents, which U.S. embassies had sent to the central government, containing "sensitive" information about U.S. operations and relations with foreign governments. This was the beginning of “Cablegate”, which would cause no small embarrassment to the U.S. administration, then led by Barak Obama and already put to the test in the preceding months by the release, again by WikiLeaks, of tens of thousands of documents (including a 17-minute video that became famous as Collateral Murder) showing how the U.S.-led fight against terrorism in Iraq and Afghanistan was mostly carried out with indiscriminate killings, torture and war crimes of various kinds.

Hello! I’m Damiano, I’m new here on Let’s Blog! and this is my first post. I’d like to share with you a video I made about an innovative topic on which I think there is a lot of disinformation.
