Not ISIS - Saudi Arabia Prepares To Execute And Publicly Display Beheaded Body Of Political Activist In “Crucifixion”
By Michael Krieger: One of the ways that the U.S. government most clearly expresses its
deep dedication to global human rights, democracy and decency across the
globe is via its unwavering support for the feudal, inhumane tyrannical
monarchy of Saudi Arabia. A monarchy that also increasingly seems to
have played a key role in the attacks of September 11, 2001.
The Saudis have received a lot of bad press as of late due to it consistently breaking its own records for beheadings, but sometimes a simple beheading isn’t sufficient. In a punishment known as “crucifixion,” the executed person’s beheaded body is placed on public display for three days. Currently facing this fate are three political activists, including two children.

Is Washington Coming To Its Senses?
By Paul Craig Roberts: There is much speculation about US Secretary of State John Kerry’s rush visit to Russia in the wake of Russia’s successful Victory Day celebration on May 9. On May 11, Kerry, who was snubbing Russia on the 9th, was on his way to Russia, and Putin consented to see him on May 12.
As time passes we will find out why Kerry was snubbing Putin on May 9 and 3 days later was criticizing Washington’s puppet regime in Ukraine. For what is known at this time, a possible explanation is that Washington is coming to its senses.
If you watched the 1 hour 20 minute video of the Victory Day Parade, you are aware that the celebration sent a powerful message. Russia is a first class military power, and Russia is backed by China and India, whose soldiers marched with Russia’s in the parade.
So, while the increasingly irrelevant West, absorbed in its own self-importance, snubbed
the celebration of the victory that the Red Army gave them over Hitler, the three largest countries in the world were present united. Russia has the largest land mass, and China and India, also large land masses, have the world’s largest populations.
The celebration in Moscow made it clear that Washington has failed miserably to isolate Russia. What Washington has done is to make the BRICS more unified.

Israel Fails To Deter Gaza-Bound Swedish Trawler + Israel Deporting Or Imprisoning African Migrants While ADL Insists On Open Borders For US
A Swedish trawler which has departed for Gaza to challenge

"Marianne of Gothenburg" left on the nearly-5,000-nautical-mile journey
from Gothenburg, Sweden on May 10. It carries solar panels and medical
equipment, Danish and Norwegian members of Parliament as well as other
well-known Scandinavian activists, artists, and academics.
The
vessel, leading the Freedom Flotilla III, has arrived in the harbor of
Copenhagen, citizen journalism website and photo agency Demotix reported
on Thursday. The campaign is a new effort to break Israel’s eight-year embargo on the enclave.
On
Monday, Israel's Zio-Nazi Foreign Ministry Emmanuel Nachshon called the attempt to supply aid to Gazans "an unnecessary provocation," adding that the Tel Aviv regime would not
allow what he called unauthorized boats to enter Palestinian waters.UK Prime Minister David Cameron Proclaims – It’s Not Enough To Follow The Law, You Must Love Big Brother
It’s not just those domestic extremists and crazy “conspiracy theory”
kooks who took serious issue with UK Prime Minister David Cameron’s
recent overtly fascist language when it comes to freedom of expression
in Great Britain. For example, in a post published today, the UK Independent describes the quote below as “the creepiest thing David Cameron has ever said.”
This statement, and others like it, are a huge deal. This isn’t how the leader of a major civilized Western so-called “democracy” speaks to the citizenry. It is how a master talks to his slaves. How a ruler addresses his subjects. I think the following tweet by Glenn Greenwald earlier today sums up David Cameron’s attitude perfectly well:
Glenn Greenwald ✔ @ggreenwald
This is really the mentality of Her Majesty's Government RT @akaSassinak But now it is not enough to obey. You must LOVE BIG BROTHER.

Maternal preference in 19th century American law
By Tom James: The maternal preference
When it was not rejected outright (as many courts did from the beginning), the supposed “paramount right of the father” to the custody of his children was subject to six major exceptions:
- children born out-of-wedlock;
- young children;
- weak, disabled or unhealthy children;
- daughters;
- older male children who expressed a preference to live with their mothers; and
- cases where the father was guilty of marital or moral misconduct, concepts which were defined very broadly in cases where a father sought custody of a child.
Except when a married mother was determined to be unfit to parent, there were not many situations to which a “paramount right of fathers to custody” actually applied. The exceptions nearly swallowed the rule, in those few states where such a rule was actually applied at all.
What this meant was that, in practice, the courts of every state – those that had openly rejected the “fathers’ rights” doctrine from the beginning, and those that had given it lip service while effectively nullifying it through the crafting of exceptions – decided custody on the basis of the best interests of the child, with a strong presumption that maternal custody was in a child’s best interests.Max Keiser Talks To George Galloway About #GE2015 Results

Women: Our Better Halves (1888)
Lester Frank Ward delivered this his first major essay on Gynæcocentrism Theory in 1888, entitled Our Better Halves. The speech was delivered at the Fourteenth Dinner of the Six O’clock Club
in Washington on April 26, 1888, at Willard’s Hotel, where Sex Equality
was selected as the evening’s topic. Distinguished women in Washington
on that day were invited to the Club, among them being Mrs. Elizabeth
Cady Stanton, Miss Phoebe Couzins, Mrs. Croly (Jennie June), Mrs. N. P.
Willis, and a number of others equally well known. – PW
By Lester Frank Ward: But let us now inquire what grounds there are for accepting this mental and physical inferiority of women as something inherent in the nature of things. Is it really true that the larger part taken by the female in the work of reproduction necessarily impairs her strength, dwarfs her proportions, and renders her a physically inferior and dependent being? In most human races it may be admitted that women are less stalwart than men, although all the stories of Amazonian tribes are not mere fictions. It is also true, as has been insisted upon, that the males of most mammals and birds exceed the females in size and strength, and often differ from them greatly in appearance.
But this is by no means always the case. The fable of the hedgehog that won the race with the hare by cunningly stationing Mrs. Hedgehog at the other end of the course, instructed to claim the stakes, is founded upon an exception which has many parallels.
