*'A Kind of Terrorism': Israeli Human Rights Groups Offer Harrowing Look at IDF Night Raids on Palestinian Homes.*

*Afghan government and Taliban agree on rules for peace talks.*

India has hundreds millions of paupers who can hardly get jobs they can live on, and it is working very hard to make more of them, by using robots to eliminate better jobs.

The UK's policy of giving no extra welfare payments for more than two children is having a significant effect on how many children women have. The article gives no information for determining how many births were avoided this way.

It is very important for people to have fewer children. However, this welfare policy is unjust, since it punishes children. It can can stunt their physical and mental growth.

Piers Corbyn, the climate denialist and Covid-denialist brother of Jeremy Corbyn, has been convicted for protesting in London.

People have a right to protest if they follow the precautions so as not to transmit Covid-19. I cannot tell, from this article, whether Piers Corbyn followed them or not.

As a denialist, he might well have disregarded those precautions, in which case he deserves this conviction. But that raises the question, what would they have done if he had followed the precautions?

Does the UK recognize the right to protest, subject to sanitary precautions? Or does it prohibit all protest, in the name of sanitary precautions?
