More countries should do the same.
What is the punishment for a doctor performing an illegal abortion in Texas?
Haaretz, an Israeli newspaper, had an interesting article about abortion laws in some US states and how they compare back in 2019 before Roe v. Wade was repealed. Alabama, Iran, or Saudi Arabia? We Checked Where Abortion Laws Are Better for Women
Higher temperatures have been recorded last year but I think the heat is starting earlier this year?
Not only is the inquisition over, but Spain is welcoming Sephardic Jews and offers them citizenship. This is how one Palestinian refugee from Yaffa got Spanish citizenship.
A 26-year-old lecturer in architecture at Birmingham City University, Iskandarani has been stateless for most of her life, possessing only a Lebanese travel document that defines her as a Palestinian refugee.
But after discovering that her Palestinian father had Jewish roots going back to Spain, Iskandarani was able to claim Spanish citizenship thanks to a 2015 law that promised to naturalize anyone whose Jewish ancestors fled the Spanish Inquisition.
“Absurdly our conversion to Islam got us exiled from Jaffa yet again for again being of different religion and ethnicity,” she wrote. “Quite ironic don’t you think being exiled twice for the exact same reason?”
An Amendment has been repealed before by another.
FDR was president for 4 terms, a constitutional amendment can be repealed by another, see: alcohol prohibition
No, they fear that Ukraine will lose no matter how much aid is provided.
You got them mixed with Israel. From malicious spyware and surveillance to running over civilians with tanks.
Biden is an anti-Palestinian bigot.
How are we supposed to know what the end user will use it for? They could be burning it or bathing in it.
Why are they counting emissions at extraction and not consumption?
I think you should no more about Saudi Arabia. I think you are assuming that Saudi Arabia by default will be worse, but I see the differences as a matter of tradeoffs. When it comes to financial and material conditions the average woman in Saudi Arabia is better off than the average woman in the US. You could argue for other social or personal issues, but not when it comes to money.
is not something American woman would accept
She would definitely accept the free healthcare and more accessible abortions if she ever needed it 1 2 3
Where women need to use the absher app on their phone which notifies and requests permission from their male guardian if they try to use their passport to travel
Are you sure about this? from what I know the current law states any women 21 or above doesn’t need a permission from any male guardian. I know it was the case for my sister and female cousins. Either you or HRW are citing an old law.
if she was in the same situation she would not be eligible as the initiator.
She won’t be eligible for an allowance from her husband, but she may still be eligible for a welfare allowance from the government. My sister initiated the divorce with her husband, and took him to court to force him to divorce her, and she is doing just fine financially, it helped that she was making more than him, but if she was poor she would qualify for housing and allowance from the government. Her son has a monthly allowance from the government in addition to the allowance paid by his father.
The ex wife is entitled to an allowance from her ex husband as are the children, she is also entitled to keep the gift her husband gave her to marry her. The state provides welfare too from monthly allowance to other services. She is not going to be homeless or sick without care if she ends poorer after the divorce.
Of course not all Muslim countries interpret Sharia exactly the same. I’m from Saudi Arabia which is on the more conservative side but has strong welfare. There are conditions on which the ex wife is not entitled to an allowance such as if she initiated the divorce. The courts can force the husband to divorce her but at the cost of waiving her financial benefits.
I think most people in the US still don’t get that many countries offer things like housing, healthcare and education as a right. A woman doesn’t need to be married to be financially secure here.
To think divorce during pregnancy is allowed here, but not in the US. Maybe people in the US shouldn’t fear Shariah law if they are adopting even more regressive laws.
That’s the crazy thing, there’s too many of them. It also sits in a very stark contrast to what I learned about the requirement to cover up other people’s flaws and sins.
It is neither permissible to spy on the Muslims nor to reveal their faults because Allah says (what means): {And do not spy.} [Quran 49:12]. I’m not well versed in Christianity but shouldn’t snitching be a sin in itself?
No end to the stupid things US politicians will spend money on.
True, people paid for it with inflation and stagnant wages
Maybe shouldn’t try to create a country on someone else’s land? Refugees are supposed to assimilate into the culture, not create a separate ethnostate and expel the natives.
