Ahem. Didn't I just warn everyone about checking the sources of information? I had never heard of these guys, and the story, or at least the way it's spun, doesn't pass the smell test. So I checked out the website, and sure enough the answer is revealed. This is not a regular news service, but rather a strongly conservative outlet with a distinct point of view (jingoism would be a charitable term for it). I'd be skeptical until I saw confirmation from more reputable news organizations

My apologies for taking up band width.

Of course not that we are going to need the UN to assist in any type of move, we are again confronting the moronic move of not paying our dues. And these countries have serious population problems...yet since abortion is LEGAL HERE we continue to take the Taliban holier than thou attitude and policies that prevent family planning funding for these countries.
