**** Two American soldiers have deserted, claiming asylum in Canada rather than serve in Iraq. They argue that the war is illegal under international law

The 18-year-old is one of two American servicemen who recently deserted their units and fled to Canada to claim asylum as refugees. "We plan to argue that the war in Iraq is illegal under international law and that I have a right not to choose to participate," he says.

"I joined because it was the only way I was going to get a college education," he says.

He went through basic training, and in his spare time began learning about the campaign in Iraq on the internet. He says he became increasingly uncomfortable about the mission, then so disturbed that he considered killing himself. He brought his questions to a commanding officer, who told him to stop thinking so much.

But it will take more than youthful appeal to win over the Canadian immigration and refugee board. Last year, a record 317 Americans applied for refugee status in Canada.

An Iranian soldier who deserted claimed refugee status because he didn't want to use poison gas on the Kurds during his country's war with Iraq. The board was unsympathetic, but the Canadian courts eventually ruled in his favour, and he was permitted to stay.

**** rubbish version of story of the orgasm- for men it is quick, easy and essential for reproduction. For women, it is slow, difficult and purely for pleasure. Yet despite such differences, it brings the sexes together and is the basis of the monogamy [?] that distinguishes us from other animals.

"For one thing, as men and women must equally be aware, they do not actually need one another to enjoy orgasm." thanks for that, jonathan margolis, here seen defending michael "pre-teen fondler", or loving esoteric high priest uri geller, doesnt seem to have much of a clue what hes talking about.

Im Zusammenhang seiner Beschäftigung mit Marx erkannte Reich, daß der Mensch nicht nur in seiner materiell sozialen Situation betrachtet werden kann, sondern daß er in einer psychosozialen Situation verhaftet bleibt, die sich als historisch mit dem Patriachat gewachsene, sich selbst reproduzierende (die patriachalische Kleinfamilie als das Reproduktionszentrum) Schranke zur Freiheit erweist.
