On Sunday, millions around the world marked International Workers Day or May Day. In Cuba, up to hundreds of thousands gathered in the Plaza of the Revolution. Cuban president Fidel Castro took the occasion to criticize the United States for allowing Cuban exile Luis Posada Carriles to enter the country even though he has been tied to the bombing of a commercial airliner in 1976. In other May Day events, some 500,000 people took to the streets of Germany. Police reported making 100 arrests there. In Japan, hundreds of thousands rallied to call for a global ban on nuclear weapons. 60 years ago this summer the United States dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. A large anti-nuclear rally was also held in New York ahead of this week’s gathering at the United Nations to review the global Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. And in Nepal, 10,000 people took to the streets of Kathmandu in the largest pro-democracy march since King Gyanendra seized complete power in February.
