The comedian surpasses herself as she makes a very controversial statement When told by a  TMZ  reporter than almost 2,000 Palestinians have been killed in the conflict, she raised her hands in mock shock ( scroll down to watch the film ). “Oh my God! Tell that to the people in Hiroshima,” she says on film. “Good. Good. When you declare war, you declare war. They started it. We now don't count who's dead. You're dead, you deserve to be dead. Don’t you dare make me feel bad about that.” “They were told to get out. They didn’t get out. You don’t get out, you are an idiot. At least the ones that were killed were the ones with low IQs.” She went onto describe Gaza’s Hamas government as “terrorists”. “They were re-elected by a lot of very stupid people who don’t even own a pencil,” she said.

Rosie O’Donnell  got into a heated showdown over abortion with CNN’s  S.E. Cupp  during a ‘View’ test show taping with  Whoopi Goldberg  … who ended up taking a thinly-veiled shot at  Barbara Walters .Production sources at  “The View”  tell us Cupp — who’s vying for the conservative role on the show — had a “nasty” debate yesterday over the Australian couple making headlines for asking their surrogate to abort a Down syndrome baby. We’re told things escalated when Whoopi jumped in and asked Cupp if  she  ever had to make a decision about abortion. That shut everyone up momentarily … until Rosie chastised Cupp, saying she didn’t want another  Elisabeth Hasselbeck .Here’s where Babs comes in. After the taping … Whoopi — in front of producers and several potential replacement hosts — said she’d been “working with a cranky 85-year-old woman who’s mad about everything for 2 years, and I need a break.”Hard to tell who Whoopi was really upset with — Rosie or Cupp — but the shot at Barbara

The athlete is charged with the "wilful and intentional murder" of Reeva Steenkamp after he shot his then girlfriend dead at his home on February 14, 2013. Pistorius has always maintained his innocence, insisting that he mistook Ms Steenkamp for an intruder after hearing a noise in the bathroom After telling the North Gauteng High Court in Pretoria that the defence team would outline several crucial points which the State had ignored in attempting to prove its case against the Paralympian, Roux began by challenging the state's assertion the athlete only cited anxiety when it suited him. "An anxious person does not walk around showing vulnerability," said Roux. He said anxiety was triggered by a situation of distress. This was a direct response to state prosecutor Gerrie Nel having argued that the defence team had failed to provide factual eviden

Fashola orders reversal of LASU fees to old charges

Image
The Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Fashola, has directed that the controversial fee hike at the Lagos State University, LASU, be reversed. Mr. Fashola stated this on Thursday at the convocation programme of the university. He said the fees would now be returned to the old charges. The reversal comes after months of protests by students and lecturers of the university. The Lagos State Government had, earlier in 2011, increased the fees from N25, 000 to N198, 000 for humanities and education, while medical students were to pay N350, 000. After the protests, the state government approved a reduction by 34 to 60 per cent. That reduction would have seen students pay between N76, 750 and N158, 250 depending on the faculty and year of study. That reduction was still opposed by the students and the lecturers. Thursday’s announcement by the governor could, however, lead to a reversal to the 2011 charges.
