POPSCivil Rights It is your civil right to be treated equally. While we usually speak about civil rights in regards to race, religion, and nationality, today, discrimination reaches much farther.

POPSGermany plans to give vote to babies "Unfortunately in Germany, 17 per cent of the population, namely the children and adolescent, are excluded from political decision making," said FDP chief Dirk Niebel. "This is a situation we cannot accept any longer. We generally have to pay more attention to their interests."

POPS"Institutionally racist" MET is sued by leading Muslim police chief for racial discrimination!! Ghaffur is the latest senior ethnic minority officer to decide to sue the Met for discrimination. Dizaei, who is a commander in the Met, received a payout in his case, while the case of Shabir Hussain is still being heard. Personal, I believe the reason for the discrimination is due to his opposing the Labour government in its repressive Bush inspired 42 day detention period that is tearing the Labour party apart and will do for Brown. Another legacy of Bush's 9/11.

POPSSurvey shows Obama 51 percent More than six in 10 African Americans now rate race relations as "not so good" or "poor," while 53 percent of whites hold more positive views. Opinions are also divided along racial lines, though less so, on whether blacks face discrimination. There is more similarity on feelings of personal racial prejudice: Thirty percent of whites and 34 percent of blacks admit such sentiments. At the same time, there is an overwhelming public openness to the idea of electing an African American to the presidency. In a Post-ABC News poll last month, nearly nine in 10 whites said they would be comfortable with a black president. While fewer whites, about two-thirds, said they would be "entirely comfortable" with it, that was more than double the percentage of all adults who said they would be so at ease with someone entering office for the first time at age 72, which McCain (R-Ariz.) would do should he prevail in November.

POPSSummary of Thursday's Supreme Court actionsSummary of Thursday's Supreme Court actions Do you think that if I commit a massive crime, like say, I spill several tons of oil into my surrounding environment while in a drunken stupor, that the courts would give me two decades to work on my defense? Would they wait 2 decades while I fought it. It's the Exxon Valdez issue at the bottom of the clip that really gets me. How could it have gone on this long, unless Exxon paid for preferential treatment. If this isn't a sign of oil/government alignment, then nothing is. Exxon will never pay even a fraction of what the judgment against them deigned.

POPSResource Scarcity & Insecurity Despite these dire circumstances, Matthew believes key actions and policies could significantly reduce the likelihood that resource scarcity will lead to conflict and insecurity. He offers 14 specific recommendations for NGOs, governments, and international organizations, which include supporting “the effort in UNEP to integrate the environment into post-conflict assessment, disaster management, and peacebuilding” and mobilizing “the enormous capacity of the private sector and NGO communities…around sustainable development, conflict resolution, and peacebuilding.”

POPSThis is what Israel wants from OBAMA. Obama spokesman Bill Burton issued a statement saying such actions are "not the policy of the campaign." "It is offensive and counter to Obama's commitment to bring Americans together and simply not the kind of campaign we run. We sincerely apologize for this behavior," the statement read. Aref said she replied by thanking Burton, but requested Obama apologize directly to her and Abdelfadeel, as well as invitations to sit behind him at a future campaign event. Obama spokeswoman Amy Brundage said the campaign has apologized. "He needs to take the matter seriously and send a strong message against any kind of discrimination," Aref said. A message was left Wednesday morning by The Associated Press for Abdelfadeel. Presidential campaigns routinely invite audience members they believe will enhance the image their candidate wants to convey on TV to stand behind the candidate at rallies.
