The Syrian ambassador is probably correct. The killings are most likely the work of rebels who are trying to get attention from the media.
If the allegations of the terrorist rebels are true than it would mean that there's a massive conspiracy within Syria to shoot their own people and then deny it.

Absolutey, we get nothing but propaganda about Syria in the Western media. They're simply next on the list after Iraq and Libya.

The key word is this article is "said" ... as in the following sentence from the first paragraph.
All these claims are coming from a British based organization that is supported by the same people who are supporting the rebels.
Do some research on the "Syrian Observatory for Human Rights" and you'll see that it's just a front.
And learn to read, the above article is not a statement of established facts, it's merely a claim from a biased organization.

What's this guy's point?
Posted in: Daily life in Japan is punctuated by mind-boggling encounters with gross inattention to or tolerance of clearly excessive, unnecessary, easily reducible costs that are, in any case, being incurred and must at some point be paid for.

Does anyone remember the movie "Logan's Run" made in the early 80s?
The was a device in the movie called the Carousel, all these websites remind me of that.

The doctor indeed broke his hippocratic oath.
Even with consent, a doctor shouldn't mutilate a person.
What if someone wanted their left arm removed? Is that okay?

The UN should send in peacekeepers to stop this Mayhem.
Perhaps it would be prudent to arm the opposition so they can protect themselves from the Yemeni regime.

BTW, a low bond yield means that investors feel that risk is low and also that borrowing costs are low for the government.
A low bond yield essentially means that the government can borrow money at a low cost, as there is an abundance of investors willing to buy the countries bonds, therefore, the bond price is high and the yield is low. This is a good thing for any government.
The only people that benefit from high bond yields are the billionaires who can afford to invest in government bonds.
Most countries in the world would kill to have bond yields as low as Germany and Japan.

"Perceptions" is the key word in the above passage.

Murder, pure and simple.
Are police officers allowed to shoot unarmed suspects in the head?
I hope not!
Every man, woman and child deserves a fair trial. No exceptions.
The only thing any of us know about Bin Laden is what the media told us. Has any poster on this board actually met him before they judged him as worthy of death.

Ya right.
The high level Afghan bureaucrats and diplomats who are living the good life because of Western funding and support want the NATO to stay.
I'm sure that the average Afghan wants the hooligan troops that are marauding around their country to go home and leave them alone.

Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Syria and now Quebec.
The US should arm the protesters so it's at least a fair fight.
As it is now the Quebec regime has a clear advantage in terms of firepower.

Japanese authorities do this all the time, especially in suspected child abuse cases, where the children are then put into custody of government run state institutions. Just last month, Japan passed a law giving the government the right to take custody of a child based merely on an allegation.
It's not uncommon for the allegations to later be proved false, but the trauma of being forcibly separated from one's parents remains with the child.
Posted in: Who wants to be the first judge to order a crying child to be taken away from a crying Japanese mother and sent overseas? Nobody. When we talk about family law in Japan today, there really isn't any.

Load of BS, skin cancer is caused by the chemicals in sun screen lotion.
Why do you think people in poor "under-developed" countries don't have a problem with skin cancer, even though the spend the whole day outside.
Moreover, how come none of the animals on earth are getting skin cancer.
Only people who use sunscreen get cancer.
The Amish and Menonites in North America don't use sunscreen and they have very low incidence of cancer.
Think about it.
