It came following the 46-year-old actress’s post on Twitter when she responded to a person calling her out for supporting Planned Parenthood, tweeting, “Murdered like ya PLANNED PARENTHOOD? Murdered like THAT? Is that what you mean?” “Your administration just reinstated the death penalty and scheduled 5 executions of ‘actual’ people,” the former Charmed star tweeted to her millions of followers. "You’ve lost the right to pull your, “pro-life” narrative-talking-point- bullshit with me." https://twitter.com/cocolano1/status/1154568881991647232 … Cocolano...

Israel Is a Sissy! Go Cry to Your Mommy! by Norma Zager “If our lives are endangered by plots or violence or armed robbers or enemies, any and every method of protecting ourselves is morally right.” Marcus Tullius Cicero This morning I attended a Purim carnival with my precious grandson. Watching all the children dressed in their costumes, crafting and shaking their noisemakers and eating Hamentashen, I was struck by how beautiful it is to celebrate children. Hearing their joy at bouncing or climbing through the tunnels, painting their faces or riding the rides was music to the ear. The...

Venables and Thompson were aged 10 when they abducted James from a shopping centre in Bootle, Merseryside and killed him on a railway line, on February 13, 1993. Bugler’s body was found by children playing on a freight railway line 200 yards from Walton Lane police station, Liverpool, and more than two miles from the Strand shopping centre. Days later Venables and Thompson were arrested in connection with the murder of James, and later charged. They were the youngest to be charged with murder in the 20th century.

(AgapePress) - "[A]t the end of the day, the truth is that when you perform an abortion you are killing something," said Dr. David Molloy of the Australian Medical Association. For pro-lifers, that is a statement of the obvious. But what if you were confronted with the full horror of what that death represented -- and still didn't care? Is it possible that pro-abortionists could finally admit that abortion is murder, but then collectively shrug their shoulders? That seems to be the case after the release of a British documentary entitled My Fetus, which aired in Britain in April, and...

A mass grave containing the bodies of children, babies and their mothers has been unearthed in Iraq.Shocked investigators reported finding "thighbones the size of matchsticks" at what they believe is the site of one of Saddam Hussein's atrocities. Among the findings-were the skeletons of unborn babies and toddlers clutching toys. A baby had been shot in the back of its head and was found still being clutched by its mother, who had been shot in the face. The discovery was reported as Tony Blair came under mounting pressure to apologise to Parliament for the misleading intelligence claiming Saddam had weapons...

The media in the United States have been oddly fastidious in failing to report one aspect of last week’s horror in Beslan: that several Russian girls were raped by Muslim terrorists in front of their parents and classmates. The failure to report rapes in the Russian school was at odds with the eagerness of American journalists, a decade ago, to report ad nauseam on the entirely fictitious "rape camps" supposedly run by Bosnian Serbs in which Muslim women were allegedly subjected to similar degradation. That Muslim propagandists and their Western abettors should have resorted to this particular whopper is especially...

Russian investigators said Arab operatives linked to Al Qaida played a major role in the takeover of a Russian school in which 400 people were killed. Russian officials said authorities have determined that 10 of the 32 suicide attackers who took over a high school in Beslan in North Ossetia last week were nationals from several Arab countries. Most of the attackers were Chechens and Ingush who had been trained at Al Qaida camps in Afghanistan. The 10 Arab nationals came from Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Syria, officials said. They said security forces seized notebooks in Arabic in the school...

PARIS, Sept 6 (Reuters) - France has expressed solidarity with Russia but wants all "necessary information" about Moscow's handling of the Beslan school seizure, French Prime Minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin said on Monday. In comments similar to remarks by the European Union's Dutch presidency which triggered a diplomatic row with Moscow at the weekend, Raffarin said France constantly reminded Russia of the need to respect human rights. Responding to a call from Socialist party leader Francois Hollande for French authorities to demand an "explanation" from Moscow, Raffarin said in a live debate on RTL radio: "We have already done so."

The bloody siege of a Russian school by Chechen rebels brought widespread condemnation and soul-searching in the Islamic world yesterday. Arab newspapers and television broadcasts were full of dramatic photographs of the children killed and injured in the siege by Islamic rebels demanding Chechen independence from Russia. Commentators and clerics put a harsh spotlight on those who kill and maim in Islam's name. "What is the guilt of those children? Why should they be responsible for your conflict with the government?" Egypt's top Muslim cleric, Grand Sheik Mohammed Sayed Tantawi, asked during a sermon in Banha, 30 miles north of...
