A spokesman for the United Nations human rights commission Rupert Colville has said the forced feeding of prisoners at the American detention camp Guantanamo Bay contravenes international law. About 100 inmates of the camp on hunger strike and camp officials said at least 20 are been fed through nasal tubes. Mr. Colville described this development as very worrying.

聯(lián)合國人權(quán)委員會發(fā)言人魯珀特·科爾維爾說,美國關(guān)塔那摩管拘留營強行喂食囚犯的行為違反了國際法。拘留營中約有100名囚犯進行絕食,營地官員稱對至少20人通過鼻管喂食??茽柧S爾稱這件事令人非常擔(dān)憂。
"It's clearly against the will of the people who've been forcibly fed, then in a view of the World Medical Association and indeed our view, this would amount to cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment which is not permissible under international law."
“這就違反了被迫服食者的意愿,在世界醫(yī)學(xué)學(xué)會和我們委員會看來,這是殘忍不人道、有辱人格的待遇,這是國際法所不允許的。”
President Obama has said he does not want any prisoners to die in Guantanamo and has pledged to renew efforts to close the camp down.
President Obama has said that the United States does not know how chemical weapons have been used in Syria or when or by whom. At a news conference in Washington, Mr. Obama repeated that the US did have evidence of chemical weapons use, but he said he had to make sure the facts before deciding on a response. He added that he had asked the Pentagon for a range of options if it was proved that President Assad had used chemical weapons.
總統(tǒng)奧巴馬說不希望關(guān)塔那摩任何囚犯死亡,承諾繼續(xù)努力以關(guān)閉營地。
總統(tǒng)奧巴馬說,美國并不清楚敘利亞如何使用化學(xué)武器的,也不知道使用時間和使用者身份。在華盛頓的新聞發(fā)布會上,奧巴馬再三表示,美國確實有化學(xué)武器使用的證據(jù),但他說必須在作出回應(yīng)之前確定事實。他說,如果事實證明總統(tǒng)阿薩德確實使用化學(xué)武器,將請求國防部采取一系列措施。
The leader of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, has declared that Syria has real friends who will not allow it fall to American, Israeli and Islamic extremists. The Syrian opposition has long claimed that Hezbollah, a Shiah Muslim movement based in Lebanon has been supplying fighters to help President Assad. Sebastian Usher reports.
真主黨領(lǐng)袖哈桑·納斯魯拉稱敘利亞有真正的朋友,它們不允許敘利亞屈服于美國、以色列和伊斯蘭極端分子。敘利亞反對派一直宣稱,駐黎巴嫩的什葉派穆斯林運動真主黨一直在為總統(tǒng)阿薩德提供武裝分子。Sebastian Usher報道。
In a live broadcast on Hezbollah's TV station, Al-Manar, Hassan Nasrallah raised the stakes in his movement support for its longtime backer, President Assad. He tacitly confirmed that the Lebanese Shiah movement has been involved in Syria, saying it had never hidden its martyrs, but the reports of large numbers of its members killed were lies. He backed this up with a warning, saying if the key Shiah shrine in Damascus were to be destroyed; it would spark revenge which could get out of control. He tried to reassure his domestic audience, but above all, Hezbollah wanted to avoid a Syrian war coming to Lebanon, but many there may find little to comfort them in his latest show of defiance.
在真主黨燈塔電視臺的直播中,哈桑·納斯魯拉加大了該組織對長期贊助者總統(tǒng)阿薩德的支持力度。他默認黎巴嫩什葉派運動已涉入敘利亞,稱從未隱藏其烈士,但所謂其大批成員被殺的報道是假的。他警告說,如果大馬士革的什葉派圣地被毀,就會不顧一切地進行報復(fù)。他試圖安撫國內(nèi)觀眾,但畢竟,真主黨希望的是不要讓敘利亞戰(zhàn)爭波及黎巴嫩,但從他最近的挑釁舉動看來,很少人能對此泰然若素。
An extensive global survey of Muslim attitudes to religious, political and social issues shows most Muslims want their countries to adopt Islamic Sharia Law, although they differ on how strictly it should be applied. Thirty-eight thousand Muslims in 39 countries were conversed by the US based Pew Research Center. Jane Frances-Kelly reports.
在最近對穆斯林對宗教、政治和社會問題態(tài)度的全球調(diào)查中,大多數(shù)穆斯林希望本國采用伊斯蘭法律,雖然他們在法律實施的程度上意見不同。39個國家的3.8萬名穆斯林接受了總部在美國的皮尤調(diào)查中心的調(diào)查。簡·弗朗西絲·凱莉報道。
Sharia is the moral code and religious law of Islam. A solid majority of Muslims question notably in Asia, Africa and the Middle East were in favor of it being adopted as the law of the land. This allowed Sharia cords to preside over family legal issues such as divorce and property disputes. However, in most countries there was less support for severe punishments, such as cutting off the hands of thieves or executing people who convert from Islam to another faith. Violence carried out in the name of Islam was also widely rejected, although substantial minorities in Bangladesh, Afghanistan and the Palestinian territory said it was permissible.
伊斯蘭法是伊斯蘭的道德規(guī)范和宗教法,在亞洲、非洲和中東,絕大多數(shù)穆斯林支持在本國采用伊斯蘭法,他們希望伊斯蘭法能涵蓋諸如離婚和財產(chǎn)爭端等家庭法律問題。然而,在大多數(shù)國家,人們不太支持嚴厲的懲罰,諸如砍掉盜賊的雙手,或處決從伊斯蘭教轉(zhuǎn)為其他宗教的人們。人們普遍反對以伊斯蘭的名義實施暴力,盡管在孟加拉國、阿富汗和巴勒斯坦,大多數(shù)少數(shù)民族稱可以允許這些懲罰。

Italy's new Prime Minister Enrico Letta says Europe must be as determined to promote growth as it has been to control spending. Mr. Letta fresh from announcing his plans to lift his country out of a protracted recession was speaking in Berlin alongside Chancellor Angela Merkel, he said austerity policies had failed to bring growth.
意大利新總理恩里科·萊塔說,歐洲必須像控制開支那樣堅決促進增長。在柏林,萊塔站在德國總理安吉拉·默克爾身旁,宣布計劃將本國從曠日持久的衰退中拯救出來,他說緊縮政策未能促進增長。
"It's important to understand that the big crisis we've been going through for five years has not been solved, because Europe hasn't been strong enough to find solutions. That's my government's most important objective to achieve, an objective I am convinced we will achieve with a strong mutually agreement between Germany and Italy."
“要明白這一點很重要,即過去5年來我們經(jīng)歷的危機并未解決,因為歐洲還沒有強大到找到解決辦法。這將是本屆政府要完成的重要目標,我相信,在德國和意大利強有力的相互協(xié)定下,我們一定能實現(xiàn)這個目標。”
Mrs. Merkel said controlling budgets and pursuing growth were not opposing economic strategies.

塞浦路斯議會以微弱優(yōu)勢通過該國援救協(xié)議,即為獲取貸款,將實施嚴格的條件作為交換。該協(xié)議以僅2%的優(yōu)勢在議員中通過??死锼?middot;莫利斯報道。
Parliamentary approval will be it by a razor-thin margin means Cyprus should receive the first installment of international bailout loans within weeks. Otherwise it would have run out of money with the government warning that salaries and pensions would have been unpaid. This latest Euro Zone bailout is relatively small, but for the first time depositors have been forced to bear the cost of recapitalizing failing banks. The main opposition party argued that the country should seek alternative funding, but the government narrowly won the day, saying there was little choice but to accept an agreement which will change the very nature of the Cypriot economy.
該協(xié)議在議會以微弱優(yōu)勢通過,這意味著塞浦路斯將在數(shù)周內(nèi)收到國際援助貸款的第一筆資金。否則該國將退出歐元區(qū),政府警告說這樣將無法支付工資和養(yǎng)老金。歐元區(qū)最近的這筆援助相對較小,但儲戶被迫承擔(dān)向經(jīng)營不善銀行提供資金的成本,這還是第一次。主要反對黨稱該國可以尋找其他途徑的資金,但政府艱難取勝,稱實在沒有別的辦法,只能接受改變?nèi)致匪菇?jīng)濟性質(zhì)的這個協(xié)議。
