America has never been a multicultural country...it has always been a multinational country...but the culture of all the people who immigrated were mostly from Europe with Judeo-Christian culture...a multicultural society can never exist is harmony...how many wars have been fought over the world because of differents beliefs and cultures...just look at Europe at how well the Muslim culture is blending in in Europe...one culture always has to dominate in a country or its cohesiveness deteriorates...so why do mainly liberals and democrats lie about america being a multicultural place...

I believe the Speaker of the U.S. House of Represenatives is abusing her powers. Does this women actually think by passing some reputed note from the Israeli Government will bring peace to the Middle East. The governments over there have played several past U.S. Presidents without ever having any real intentions of allowing a peace agreement to take hold.The only thing missing from this scenario is Rev. Jesse and Rev. Al, and this charade would be complete!

Sudan: Two Darfuri women at risk of being stoned to death
16 March 2007
Who is at risk?
Sadia Idriss Fadul (female, aged 22)
Amouna Abdallah Daldoum (female, aged 23)
Sadia Idriss Fadul and Amouna Abdallah Daldoum, both from the Darfur region in western Sudan, are at risk of being stoned to death after being convicted of adultery. Their sentence could be carried out at any time.

Sadia Idriss Fadul, from the Fur ethnic group, was sentenced to death by stoning on 13 February. Amouna Abdallah Daldoum, a member of the Tama ethnic group, was sentenced on 6 March.

Both women were convicted of adultery by a criminal court in Managil province, in Gazira state, central Sudan. According to reports, the women had no lawyer during their trial, and were not able to defend themselves, as their first languages are those of their ethnic groups in Darfur.

The court proceedings were conducted in Arabic and the women were reportedly not provided with a translator. They have yet to lodge an appeal against their sentence.

Both women are married with children. They are currently in detention in Wad Madani women’s prison in Wad Madani, Gazira State. One of the women, Sadia Idriss Fadul, has one of her children with her in prison.

Take action
Please send letters of appeal to arrive as quickly as possible, in Arabic, English or your own language:

expressing deep concern that Sadia Idriss Fadul and Amouna Abdallah Daldoum are at risk of being stoned to death;
expressing concern at reports that this sentence was imposed after a trial at which the women had no legal representation and no translation of the legal proceedings into their languages;
expressing concern that one of Sadia Idriss Fadul has one of her children with her in prison;
noting that Amnesty International opposes the death penalty unconditionally in any circumstances;
calling on the authorities not to carry out the death sentence imposed on Sadia Idriss Fadul and Amouna Abdallah Daldoum.

Background information
The Sudanese Penal Code, which is partly based on interpretation of Islamic Law, allows for penalties such as flogging, amputations and deaths by hanging or stoning.

While Amnesty International does not take a position on Islamic or any other religious law, it considers such penalties to be cruel, inhuman and degrading punishments which are inconsistent with Sudan's obligations under the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). Amnesty International opposes the death penalty unconditionally and under any circumstances.

The two women were charged under Article 146 (a) of Sudan's 1991 Penal Code. Article 146 states that anyone having sex outside marriage shall be punished with execution by stoning when the offender is married (Muhsan); or one hundred lashes when the offender is not married (non-muhsan).

Pelosi is bad seeking peace in Syria? Republicans make the same trip and they are ok?

Republicans have a base of Christian values, but seeking peace is a bad action? And Jesus would be against peace because why?

The war in Iraq is getting better, although more people are dying?

The British are weak because they said a few words obviously meant to release their Sailors and not provoke a war and they are now weak because why? Didn't they get what they wanted with little cost?
