President Bush has done more than his predecessors in making sex trafficking an issue, and his State Department has done a first-rate job exerting pressure - but there's so much more that we could do. I'm amazed that Kristof would make this admission. This is such a very sad situation.

Tell me why American people are so hated in this world when the the treatment of women is better here than anywhere in the world?

The left wants to destroy America, therefore they will overlook any facts that don't correspond to their agenda and tell any lies necessary to further their goal.

>>>As it becomes a global industry, sex trafficking is increasingly controlled by organized crime, like the ethnic Chinese mafias in Asia, and the criminals use their profits to buy government officials.
The quantum fund was set up originally with foreign investors. I can't help but wonder if the money is from human trafficking.
Don't forget, a lot of the 'non profit' funds are for Soros funded youth groups.
If these prostitutes don't chose abortion, their babies are taken from them and raised (indoctrinated) by these youth groups and are turned right back to the human trafficking arena.

As much as I sympathize with the females caught in this situation, what can the US do about in internal situation in Cambodia? We can't crack a whip and demand that everyone in the world adhere to our moral standards.

It isn't that we can do anything...it's the SOROS link,which has some of us benumbed.

How is this President Bush's or America's problem to solve? These are the same people who don't want us to 'interfere' in the affairs of 'sovereign' nations like Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, the DPRK (North Korea), Cuba, etc... Are we an empire, or a republic? You can't have it both ways! If we are to be the 'world's policeman' then we need to start collecting taxes from the rest of the world for the service we are providing. I am serious. Say a 5% worldwide (excepting the United States, of course) sales tax on all goods and services to pay for the US military & foreign aid that is currently provided free of charge. In return, all other countries may disband their militaries, and merely keep a gendarme/paramilitary force on hand, at a much lower cost.

I don't think this is America's problem to solve. I do think that America can impose trade sanctions against the countries that knowingly allow this to happen. We did this in South Africa and Apartheid was over within a few years (even though the system that replaced it isn't any better, it's just different).

Don't allow Americans to travel there, for starters.

Nice, very nice, take, Cal. It would be naive to think Soros is rich b/c he is an altruist........even though Soros wants everyone to believe he is motivated by the (gag) goodness of his heart.
Soros reminds me of the old saying about do-gooder liberals, "There's always someone willing to say they're for their fellow-man and hoping to make a buck on it."
Soros mucking around American politics should give us pause. His motives are not to be trusted.

Your question is one that I have been asking for years...
the answer, is that we have so much in America, that we
must now be forced to share it with the rest of the world.
Once you know the game plan, it is clear and you will hear the commies calling for our money all over the world.....
And they are getting it.
To me a liberal, democratic and a few other names, are nothing but communists.
All the information is out there, use Google, ask them the
questions that we have asked ourselves.
Ok, granny will get off her soap box.

Plausible theory, Calpernia. These children are just another commodity to people like him.
Liz, it seems the less honorable they are (Soros/Kerry), the more mucking around they do!

In an economic sense, Soros cannibalizes live infants! MONSTER!
