I think they do, but it's too easy to disconnect one's own behavior from its indirect consequences with diffusion of responsibility. Same goes for issues like immigration, or heck, even warfare -- it's one thing to push a button and have ten people blown to pieces somewhere far away because someone told you so, it's another thing to go out there and kill ten people with your bare hands.

No worries, in a few years, corporations will be able to sue governments into oblivion for lost revenue on cases like this...

I'd love to know what your background in law is to say such an absurd thing. What case would they have ? "We failed to comply with a judicial order and decided to protect criminal's privacy instead, and we got blocked. We want damages". Seriously ?

I think he's talking about TPP or TTIP which so far have nothing to do with Brazil. But who's to say such a deal is not on the plans of some politicians there as a quicker way out of the economic mess currently happening there?

It would require an international treaty with appropriate language to do so (not that it is likely IMHO), but then it can be analogous to the "your environmental laws caused us to shut down our polluting factory, so you owe us damages" cases.

Brazil is not a party to the trans-Pacific agreement.

The article makes it seem like there's a lot of news, when in fact most of what we can learn from the article about drugs in the Third Reich has already been published in the 2002 title "Nazis On Speed. Drogen im Dritten Reich." -- two volumes with a wealth of information, of which she makes zero mentions in the article.

I distantly remember attending a book reading and discussion about above book in 2003 with Werner Pieper, Friedrich Kittler and others providing a good overview, a lot of serious points and some fun facts.

For instance, at some point, in Paris under German occupation, Pervitin pills were a legitimate currency in Paris brothels.

It can also be shown that there was an unusually high amount of animal studies performed all over the country, testing the effects of Pervitin on all kinds of species and sub-species, that don't seem to make much sense academically, but did provide steady Pervitin supplies for the research team.

What if the occupying army was sent by a democratically elected government? Is it OK because it happens to other people, far away?

If 'democratically elected' is a description that can be applied to the method via which Bush Junior made it to office then your question becomes even more ludicrous.

It's futile to expect others to adhere to your moral standards (here: truthfulness) when they think you should clean up your own act first.
