 Mera (comics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The trauma of losing her son at the hands of Black Manta drove Mera to leave her husband.
However she is merely a puppet queen for the new Sorcery Elite, and was recently punished by the sorcerers of Atlantis by being turned into an air-breathing human maiden.
After the "One Year Later" event Mera regained her water breathing abilities, if not her full strength, and became the leader of a small rebel army, taking under her protection some refugees from the lost Atlantis, and the new Aquaman.

 Rebels Rule!
I think the Rebel destroyer is not only better, but easier to build, and thus, the Rebels would have the advantage in numbers.
That means that the Rebels can mass produce their destroyers, while the Confederation struggles to just build one or two of their Cruisers, which are slow and can easily be picked off by an experienced Rebel pilot.
Rebel Destroyers carry twice the firepower, and thus they can pummel and blast away their targets with torpedoes while the Confed Frigates attempt to bring down the mighty Rebel capital ships with their puny, short range, and low damage missiles.

Although the risk of hostage executions remains ominous, Ospina, the army commander, said that the president had signaled his readiness to negotiate with rebels who laid down their arms and that the amnesty program was luring growing numbers of insurgents out of the underground.

Rebels shot to death the four officers posted at the station and ambushed reinforcements as they arrived, killing three more policemen...
Thus, the shrill insistence that the US war plane was not downed by rebels, because seven more military soldiers and pilots died in that crash, reversing the "body count" score from 12 to 8 in favor of the military, to 15 to 12 (plus a C-47 war plane!) in favor of the rebels.
The rebel forces have not yet been quoted in the English-language press on their "body count" statistics nor their version of how the war plane was downed.

The agreement for the United States to use the Manta air base to fight the drug trade was signed amid constitutional irregularities: There was no open democratic debate regarding the issue.

For Ecuador, Manta is the symbol of a negotiation gone awry.

 cannabisnews.com: Ecuador Air Base Key to U.S. Drug Surveillance
The violence was a nightmare for many Ecuadoreans, who fear U.S. use of the Manta base may provoke bloody reprisals from powerful Colombian rebel groups that protect the narcotics trade.
Ecuadoreans' suspicions of U.S. plans for Manta may stem partly from the secrecy surrounding the government's agreement to let the United States use the air base for 10 years.
The Manta base commander argues it is in his country's interest to cooperate with the United States.

Since 2000, the U.S. government has poured over $2 billion in military aid into Colombia to “combat narco-trafficking.” According to critics of the program, such aid has been a thinly disguised way of fighting one of Latin America’s oldest and most deeply rooted movements for independence and social justice.

Plans for the meeting were unknown to FTW while in Moscow but they confirmed that European and Asian intelligence services and foreign ministries were equally aware of economic vulnerability in the US and opportunities for European growth and stability if war was successfully avoided.

 ECUADOR: GUERILLAS RE-EMERGE | World War 4 Report
In a Jan. 11 communique from "the sovereign mountains" of Ecuador, the Ecuadoran Guerrilla Coordination (CGE) announced that as of Jan. 1, 2006, the 1991 peace agreement signed between the "Alfaro Vive Carajo!" rebel group and the Ecuadoran government was being revoked.
The country's rebel forces currently have 5,000 weapons, says the communique, and the support of about 20,000 Ecuadoran soldiers and military officers "in active and passive service."
The students were also protesting a US military base established in 1999 in the coastal city of Manta, and demanding that the Ecuadoran government cancel its contract with the US oil company Occidental (Oxy).

The minifigs are beautifully done, with the same sculpt serving double-duty as the two different helmets (I smell an AT-AT pilot in the near future...) and the Stormtrooper is the second minifig in this series to get a painted back.
Anyways, the pod section of the TIE Fighter is loosely based on the one from Vader's, but it boasts several improvements, including having the forward viewport attached to the dorsal hatch piece, which allows for easier access to the pilot's seat.
Gold Leader is the pilot of this Y-Wing, and, along with the other three Rebel pilots, has an excellently detailed helmet, mostly true to the movie props.

 Rebelion. Latin America: political re-alignment and empire

In the first place, they do not have the same political trajectory; in many cases they are “outsiders”, who have not been part of the governing or ruling class.
One thinks of the contrast between Gfutierrez, a petit bourgeois ex-military official and political ‘rebel’ versus ex-President Noboa, a millionaire businessman; Carlos Mesa, an affluent middle-class professional versus his predecessor ex-President Sanchez de Losado a capitalist millionaire; Lula Da Silva, petit bourgeois long-term Workers Party functionary (ex-metal worker) versus affluent upper middle class Fernando Cardoso.

What happened in Ecuador last week, Garrido suggests, was not a "fracture" or simple change of Presidents but rather a "rupture" or change of system.
The de facto government in Ecuador has indicated a change in future relations with the USA, threatening to lift a US troops immunity agreement, a stop to bilateral free trade negotiations, a review of all mining and oil contracts and a study whether to annul an agreement on the Manta radar and US base.
The withdrawal of Ecuador from the US Southern Command's regional Plan Colombia will be a blow for the USA, since 500 US troops are said to operate from the Manta base in operations against rebel positions in Colombia.
