Society's Child
The proposal was approved in the House by a voice vote and now moves to the Senate.
"These dolls can be programmed to simulate rape. The very thought makes me nauseous," said House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte, a Virginia Republican.
Child sex dolls are one niche of a nascent robotic sex industry that has generated debate about the ethics of the use of lifelike machines for sexual activity. It is a subject that turns from squeamish to outright revulsion for many when it touches on child sex dolls and robots.
"Once an abuser tires of practicing on a doll, it's a small step to move on to a child. My bill takes necessary steps to stop these sickening dolls from reaching our communities," said Rep. Dan Donovan, a New York Republican who sponsored the legislation.
Feldman disappeared in May without a trace; the only clue to where she might have gone was a text message sent to her parents that read, "Don't look for me. I come in 2 or 3 weeks." Susanna's body was found a short time later, "buried in brushwood, in a secluded area, near the railroad tracks," not far from a refugee camp, with signs that she'd been raped and then strangled.
"The murder suspect, identified as Ali Bashar, a 20-year-old Iraqi, arrived in Germany in October 2015, shortly after Ms. Merkel opened the borders to hundreds of thousands of migrants," the NYT reports. "He was rejected in late 2016, but was allowed to stay in the country while his appeal was pending."
Comment: It seems that Germans are beginning to wake up to the fact that the extremely liberal open immigration policy is not serving them in any way and is actually doing harm.

"Four-hundred-fifty radicalised prisoners will be out of jail by 2019 plus fifty Islamic terrorists," said the French Justice Minister, Nicole Belloubet, to BFMTV.
She added that "There will be 20 Islamic terrorists who will leave prison this year and 30 next year".
This shocking statement should not come as a surprise for whose people who know the extreme clemency of the European countries' justice systems; as early as the previous week, a Belgian Islamic terrorist, Benjamin H., committed brutal killings while he was on "penitentiary leave," despite his known Islamic views.
"There are also simple criminals who've been radicalised during their jail-time (...) 450 radicalised prisoners will get out of prison from 2019," Belloubet said.
France, being the host of the biggest muslim community in Europe, has already suffered the deaths of 245 French nationals from Islamic terrorism.
Yet, astonishingly, the French government is not taking the appropriate measures to protect the French people from further attacks.

On Tuesday's episode of her show, Maddow launched an 18-minute long attempt to prove that the person who benefited most from US President Donald Trump's nuclear summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un was actually Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Before she got down to the business of explaining how Putin secretly controlled Trump during the Singapore summit, however, Maddow had some very important news to impart to her viewers. This news was so important that Maddow spent the first three minutes of her segment building up to the big reveal.
With much fanfare, the intrepid MSNBC host revealed to the world - drum roll, please - the well-hidden fact that North Korea has, indeed, got a small border with Russia.
Now, of course, this was nothing that a quick glance at a map of the world couldn't confirm in two seconds, but on The Rachel Maddow Show it was truly groundbreaking information presented almost as though Maddow herself had uncovered a huge geographical secret.
Comment: Here is Rachel Maddow's full unintentionally hilarious exposition of the 'Putin plotted peace in Korea' conspiracy theory:
The resolution condemns Israel for "excessive use of force" against Palestinian demonstrators on the Israeli-Gaza border and calls for the "protection of the Palestinian civilian population" in Gaza. It was adopted with 120 votes in favor and eight votes against, with 45 abstentions.
The amendment offered by US envoy Nikki Haley sought to condemn Hamas, which runs the elected government in Gaza, for firing rockets at Israel. The amendment received 62 votes in favor, with 58 nations opposed and 42 abstaining. It needed a two-thirds majority to pass, however, so it was not included in the final resolution.

It is not that I and the many other bloggers doing this are cleverer than everyone else. We have simply had a chance - an earlier one - to step through that door ourselves, because of a jarring life experience that the Great Western Narrative could not explain, or because someone held the door open for us, or more usually because of a combination of the two.
My Personal Awakening
It is easy for me to identify my own process of awakening. It began with the dislocation of moving to Nazareth and being immersed in someone else's narrative - that of the Palestinians. Then, I faced for the first time in my career as a journalist an impenetrable wall of opposition, even from my own former newspaper, the Guardian, as I tried to explain that counter-narrative. In fact, I found that the Palestinian narrative was invariably misrepresented as anti-semitism. These were dark years of disillusionment and the loss of a professional and ideological compass.
Demonstrating that even the slightest whiff of peace is enough to scare investors in America's most profitable military contractors, USA Today reported on Tuesday that shares of Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Boeing, and General Dynamics all "took a dive" as Trump and Kim signed a vague, non-binding agreement that is merely the first step toward a lasting diplomatic solution.
"Peace is bad for business," noted writer Ajit Singh in response to the new report.
Surprise! It's not just misogynists or stupid white males, or "self-help junkies," that follow Jordan Peterson, a fallacy the left is so desperately trying to advance. Turns out, some of his audience is made up of educated, successful, assertive females.
[Holding tight for leftist screams ...]
Leftists are wrong about him because the left is deaf when hearing Jordan Peterson.
Peterson uses big words to say simple things, the left is right about that. But what the left cannot grasp is the essence of what Peterson's audience gets out of his lectures. And it's not the size of his words that impress us. It's his rationality.
Recently a story out of Tucson, Arizona went viral. A group dedicated to rescuing homeless veterans had stumbled onto a child sex trafficking camp in the woods near route 19 at a Cemex property, 40 miles from the border with Mexico. The Facebook live streams were captivating. The group insisted this could be nothing other than a "cartel rape camp" for trafficked children. The group found hair dye and children's toys. A buried septic tank was identified as a holding cell for young victims. Pieces of hose and straps nailed to a tree at "child level" were said to be restraints, and the tree in question was most definitely a "rape tree."
Law enforcement was called and responded to the scene. The veterans group angrily proclaimed on Facebook that the responding officers didn't investigate properly. They then occupied the site, hanging an American flag from the tower of an abandoned cement factory. The veterans group placed personnel with rifles at various positions should the cartel sex traffickers return. They collected "evidence" they claimed law enforcement ignored. This high drama was captured in livestream after livestream.
This is the story of Michael '"Lewis Arthur" Meyer, the leader of the group Veterans on Patrol and the star of these compelling Facebook Videos, as told by someone who has observed his activities closely over the past 4 years. As you will find reading this article, I don't believe much of what Lewis Arthur has to say, but I do believe this:
"I used to walk with the devil hisself."

The ministry released its statement on June 13, about a week after a Russian researcher first made the charge that the records were being destroyed.
According to historians, the registration cards contain key information about people caught up in the sprawling prison camp system that existed for decades during the Soviet era.
The Moscow-based Gulag History Museum, considered the country's foremost exhibition of the prison camp system, said earlier this month that researcher Sergei Prudovsky had discovered a directive from 2014 ordering the destruction of the cards.
