As the year ends and another begins, as the western world celebrates the joyous holidays of Christmas and Hanukkah, and as the Arab world celebrates the liberating movement of the Arab Spring, the news of the last two days is filled with amazing examples of violence which seems to evidence our inability to “Get Along.” It must stop!

We are all used to some conflicts, such as between the “Superpowers” and between Arab and Israeli, but as these old conflicts disappear, they seem to spread like a virus to every aspect of society. In fact, some of the conflicts, violence, aggression and oppression is, to be frank, mind boggling. It is saddening as it seems we can never ever move this world towards one in which people can coexist freely and peaceful, with mutual respect.

The Time Has Come For Armed Intervention In Syria to Bashar al-Assad Committing War Crimes

The Time Has Come For Armed Intervention In Syria to Stop the Government of Syrian Dictator Bashar al-Assad from Slaughtering, Torturing, and Massacring Innocent Non-Violent Protestors لقد حان الوقت للتدخل المسلح في سورية Stop the Slaughter and The Massacre وقف المذبحة والمجزرة

Update February 7, 2012

I called for armed intervention in Syria to protect the Syrians from the tyrannical, criminal, murderous, and oppressive rule of Bashar al-Assad way back on December 25, 2011. I have always prided my Blog posts on being prescient, ahead of even the media, much less world opinion. It is now February 6, 2012. The government has resorted to shelling innocent civilians, including with indiscriminate mortar attacks. It is both emboldened by the failure of the United Nations to Act, and desperate to quash the growing rebellion, including in the armed forces.

The Forgotten Child Sex Abuse Scandal at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School

The Forgotten Child Sex Abuse Scandal at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania [Part 1]

With all the publicity about the child sex abuse scandal at Penn State involving the school's prestigious football program, forgotten is an almost identical story involving a powerful professor and department head at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania in the early 1990's. I was the lawyer for the main victim, although there were other victims (but the statute of limitations had run out). The only difference is that officials did not look the other way to the same extent as at Penn State, although the professor and his misuse of the prestige and name of the University of Pennsylvania name was ignored and enabled the professor to molest young boys and the professor was let off the hook. A grave miscarriage of justice and the rape of children was allowed to go unpunished in nearby Montgomery County, Pennsylvania (a county courthouse where I have learned not to expect justice) until the professor got caught again more than a decade later.

Letter to My Readers about my Blog, Why I Write It, My Attempt to Reach the World by Translating My Posts, and My Special Interest and Love of China

To The Readers Of My Blog:

Chinese and Arabic Translations at the Bottom
底部的中文和阿拉伯文的翻译
الترجمة الصينية والعربية في القاع

Thank you for reading my Blog. Now that my Blog has been up and running for about six months, let me take some time to thank you and tell you how we have been doing and where we are going and why. In a country where our politicians are impotent to make a difference even in the face of social and economic problems, we (I and my readers) are going to make a difference worldwide and are well on our way.

Recent Protest(s) In China are not Comparable to the Arab Spring Protests

Recent Protest(s) in China is(are) not the Same as Arab Spring Protests and Should Be Left to the Central Chinese Government to Handle. The Chinese Government does represent the People of China and is its legitimate government and has not just the legal and military authority to rule, but the historical and moral authority as well.

As much as the West has been taught to think of Communist governments as a form of dictatorship which does not represent the people of the country and whose governance of the people is not pursuant to the will of the people, this is not true as a rule and is not true in China today or when after the Communists defeated the Nationalists (just as Fidel Castro came to power with the will of the people). We need to stop interfering with China and her internal affairs, which is something that the rest of the world (Japan, Russia, Germany, America, England and others) has done since the birth of international travel hundreds of years ago.

Plan B Morning After Pill Age Restrictions are Reasonable

I am a pro-choice progressive liberal Democrat. But I support the age limitations imposed by the Obama administration. It is not that I want to take away or restrict any woman's reproductive and/or sexual rights. To the contrary, every woman should have the unfettered right to make choices as to her sexual activity and right to reproduce and/or terminate a pregnancy. This issue, however, implicated the rights and abilities of parents to be good parents to their children.

The World Must Support The Arab Spring, Especially in Syria (Arabic Translation at End) and the Continuing Struggle for Freedom in Egypt and Libya (and eventually in Iran).

America has some choices confronting it, but fortunately, those choices lend themselves to great opportunity. Historically, America's choices have led to the opportunity to advance her strategic, economic, and/or moral agendas. To often, we have had to choose between those strategic, economic and moral agenda. Also, to often, we have made the wrong choice. Whether through direct military intervention in such countries as Vietnam and Iraq or by backing dictators such as the Shah of Iran, Pinochet in Argentina, or even Batista in Cuba (the list is endless), we have had to make hard choices between our economic, political and strategic interests. Often, such as in backing the Shah or Iran or the Mujahideen in Afghanistan, we have in fact advanced none of our interests and done damage to them all.

Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum Are Not Viable Candidates and are Not Qualified to Be President - What is happening to Democracy? Also, why the US needs "Big Government"

This post was updated on January 2, 2012 right before the Iowa caucus after the surge in Iowa polls of Rick Santorum

In the recent debate, Newt Gingrich made some of the most absurd statements I have heard. Statements which will hurt him if he gets the nomination. He proved himself to be not a viable candidate for the Presidency, although pathetically, he may be the best the Republicans have to offer. Rick Santorum, despite holding the title of Senator (of Pennsylvania - my home state), held that title only briefly. Before and after his brief tenure as Senator, he acquired no experience, did nothing of distinction, and currently, has no complete vision for the entire scope of issues which a President of the United States of America must deal with. Instead, he has extremist views on only a small sub-set of issues which deal with social value and religious issues, and America needs real leaders, not extremist religious fanatics who seek election on a religious and social conservative platform alone.

Egyptial Blogger Aliaa Magda Elmahdy is a Hero of the Arab Spring who, Fired the "Second Shot Heard Round The World"

If I may rephrase some famous expressions, the oppression anyone's freedom is the oppression of all of our freedom. An injustice anywhere is an injustice everywhere. If you don't understand why this is true, please understand that when oppression of freedom and injustice (legal or social) is allowed at any time, in any place,  to any person or group, there is not only the danger that this will spread to us all, and not only does it offend our empathy to our fellow human beings, but in directly infringes our right and freedon to become a member of the oppressed group and/or engage in the activities which are restricted.

In this fight for freedom, Aliaa Magda Elmahdy is a hero and we need to know who she is, what she stands for, how she is protesting. Most importantly, we need to back her and the rest of the secular Arab Spring protesters. She is getting a massive following in the Arab world, and it is time that the world learns who she is and what she did and throws massive support to her and those for whom she protests. She is a young Egyptian adult and posed nude in a blog which also protests the jailing by the Egyptian military of protesters and also opposes Military trials for civilians. She also stands for artistic freedom and a whole host of freedom related issues which the Arab Spring revolution confronts in Egypt (in the same way that the tax on tea as only one issue encompassed in the American Revolution).

Jews and Jewish Supporters of Israel Should Support President Obama and Democrats

Why Jews and Jewish Supporters of Israel Should Support USA President Barak Obama and the Democratic Party    למה יהודים התומכים בישראל צריכים לתמוך נשיא ארה"ב ברק אובמה

As a liberal progressive who emphatically supports President Barak Obama, I often receive criticism from Jewish friends and associates, especially American, who feel that our President is not a friend of Israel or concerned with her security while the Republican party candidates are. This belief is factually inaccurate and the result of misinformation and a media campaign by people who aspire to be President, and are thus free to say what they believe will win them the most votes and campaign contributions. Unfortunately, a sitting President, like Obama, must be restrained in his comments and actions, because there is a different set of responsibilities and goals between a candidate for President and being the President.
