In March 2004, 53 nations will sit at the United Nations in Geneva to discuss, argue, vote and then publicly declare if they believe sexual orientation and gender identity are human rights or not. In other words, they will say whether being Lesbian, Gay, Transgender or Bisexual (or heterosexual for that matter) is a basic right of human beings. What can you do about it?

When looking deeply at the issue, one can understand that the core of the problem is an ideology that is very harmful to humanity and the security of the region. This ideology, which has been Armenians' national program for more than one hundred years, encompasses the establishment of the "Great Armenia from sea to sea - from the Black Sea to the Caspian Sea" and the occupation of the lands of the ancient peoples who Armenians have been neighbors with for two hundred years in the Caucasus. ... read full story / add a comment

Its support in Dublin is now equal to that of Fine Gael and Labour and it is poised to make significant gains in the local elections in June. Its support is highest among younger voters, urban dwellers, men and the less well off. ... read full story / add a comment

However in the article an Irish govt. spokesman commenting on Britains announcement admits that Ireland, "retained the power on a contingency basis to impose necessary controls should there be a major disruption in the labour market." ... read full story / add a comment
