Lesbian Couples and Legal Hurdles

This is a story that highlights the complexity of US laws when it comes to same sex couples and children. It makes for a good read in USA Today.

Australia and Julian Assange

I was wondering where John Pilger was the other day, and a piece of his cropped up on the Information Clearing House list.

He's still up to his trademark prodding and questioning which he does so well.

He's arguing that the ongoing 'war on terror' is still dangerously eroding rights.

As an example he's having a go at the Australian government over it's support of the US in it's efforts to get Julian Assange, WikiLeaks editor, into its clutches..

Much of this I didn't know.
