Thanks to the editors for the link to this story. It really does engage our attention on a lot of controversial topics: abortion, gender and sex discrimination, poverty, third world issues and the interventions of the Western countries in the affairs of others, etc.

What is badly needed here in the US anyway is willingness of the media to address serious issues like this. Thank you to the WIP for publishing this and allowing us to think about all these matters.

Absolutely Nancy - it is what drives the WIP and it is inspiring to us all to be able to engage our readers. Stories like these are vital to an enlightend world, empathic societies and for change...
