Use of US funds to pay for abortions

samedi 13 février 2016 à 01:00

Sanders and Clinton said they would allow US funds to pay for abortions for women that have been raped or when necessary for their health.

Bernie Sanders helped organize civil rights activities in Chicago for two or three years.

Syrian factions agree on cease fire

samedi 13 février 2016 à 01:00

The Syrian factions have agreed on a cease fire starting in a week.

It is not clear Russia will stop bombing, and if it doesn't stop, the cease fire won't really take effect.

The cease fire does not include PISSI and al-Nusra.

samedi 13 février 2016 à 01:00

The UK opposition warns that jailing protesters would be a blow against human rights.

Of course, that's what the Tories are after. That's why they created the crime of "aggravated trespass", i.e., protesting in an inconvenient way. Now that they have adopted Republican voter suppression techniques so they can't lose, they don't fear political opposition; an inconvenient protest is the only effective response to their abuses of power.

The Tories are lower than vermin.
