LNF News: Week of 1/21–1/25

Hello all! The news of the world seems to be heating up quite a bit… We wish we could bring you stories of world peace, but unfortunately not today.

The abortion problem is quite unsettling. The Obama Administration is trying to determine what people’s rights are concerning this. Fortunately, at the UN they decided against listing abortion as an ‘international right’, as the US group would have liked. The government doesn’t seem to understand: if they voted for birds’ right to fly, or not, it wouldn’t change the truth. The truth is: as soon as the egg in a woman is fertilized, it is alive!; and so abortion is murder – if the government voted to say that the baby is only ‘alive’ after so long, and that abortion isn’t murder before that point, it still wouldn’t change the truth. They cannot change the truth, no matter what majority rule says. The Obama Administration was even going to push for determining a person’s sexual rights, which would protect the right of children as young as 10 to make their own decisions about that. The truth is: God said that you are to be married before you do anything like that! Perhaps I am getting a little carried away… I am just disappointed at the kinds of things the government tries to do…

In Iraq the problems never seem to end! This week there was a protest against the government. Sadly at least 9 people were killed in this incident when protesters started throwing rocks at the military. The military opened fire upon the protesters killing at least 7 of them. Two military people were killed by the rock throwing. The protesters also set fire to some vehicles. The protesters said this: “Today we protest in Mosul, tomorrow we take the streets of Baghdad.”

Hillary Clinton has sparked a bit of anger over the Sep. 11, 2012 Benghazi attack. Rumors and stories are flying over how much information was given before and after the attack; whether it could have been prevented (supposedly security at the US building was weak); and whether it truly was a terrorist attack or just random mayhem. I wonder if Clinton will try to pick her words more carefully next time…

Well, that is that for this week! I would say that I hope you enjoyed, but I suppose saying I hope this provided food for thought would be better. We will see you next week! LNF News closes with this cartoon (found at worldmag.com):
