    Een video van een extreem-rechtse, antisemitische website promoten? Niks mis mee, volgens mijn Leidse collega prof. Paul Cliteur. '2 X 2 is 4, ook al zegt Hitler het.' () Zie over de herkomst van die racistische propagandavideo:

    89 Sudanese among the 97 persons thankfully saved at sea by yesterday. What is happening in Sudan is deeply impacting movements to Libya & Egypt & we should be surprised if the situation continues deteriorating in Sudan.
