Indignez-vous!
Pour Stéphane Hessel, le «motif de base de la Résistance, c’était l’indignation». Certes, les raisons de s’indigner dans le monde complexe d’aujourd’hui peuvent paraître moins nettes qu’au temps du nazisme. Mais «cherchez et vous trouverez» : l’écart grandissant entre les très riches et les très pauvres, l’état de la planète, le traitement fait aux sans-papiers, aux immigrés, aux Roms, la course au “toujours plus”, à la compétition, la dictature des marchés financiers et jusqu’aux acquis bradés de la Résistance – retraites, Sécurité sociale… Alors, on peut croire Stéphane Hessel, et lui emboîter le pas, lorsqu’il appelle à une «insurrection pacifique».

Girl shaves head to be readmitted to school
15-year-old Cennet Doğanay was banned from classes for wearing a headscarf, as it went against the new French law banning religious signs in schools. She was only allowed into school after shaving her head. Cennet's mother said her daughter had tried everything: "a beret, a bandana, but they still refused to let her into class." Cennet told journalists: "I respect the law but the law does not respect me."

"Je m'appelle Bond. Jacques Bond."
The French military attaché in Damascus simply took it upon himself to drive out to the reactor on his own and take pictures. The attaché, whose name could not be learned, drove out to the desert site, near the village of At Tibnah, trailing a virtual caravan of Syrian "minders," domestic security agents assigned to follow him around. When he pulled up to the reactor site, the attaché jerked his thumb over his shoulder and told the bewildered guards, "They're with me."
