    8th grade Christian girl accused of blasphemy over a typo in Punjab

    Reading this thread was a delightful surprise. One of my first experiences of this forum was a thread where nearly every post seemed to defend the blasphemy law and the assassin. Here, as I seem to recall someone saying, (I paraphrase freely) "if even reasonable people like us can get toucht...

    US planned to bomb Britain in 1930

    Sure they had a war. It was against the Germans and their allies for control of Europe. The thing is, anglophones are one people. The fact they are split among half a dozen "nations" just shows not even the British like the British. My grandfather was Scots. I never even heard the Irish...

    Russia and China Back Assad Regime

    No desire to offend a Syrian, a Christian, or a patriot. I oppose the Global Kleptocracy having any wedge in Syria, however "even-handed". After Afghanistan, Iraq, and Libya, we know they use any excuse to conquer and occupy. The Russians and Chinese know this. I approve of their tactics of...
