Gay Wedding For Philippine Communist Rebels Two communist rebel fighters in the Philippines have tied the knot in a ceremony at a jungle base. The pair are members of the New People's Army, rebels who have been fighting for independence in rural areas since the late 1960s. The NPA added same-sex relationships and marriage to its independence manifesto policy in 1998.

His most recently was blamed by Mr Chavez (who is generally in our good books) for an illegal military incursion into Venezualan territory, an event which caused everyone to go into a flap in that corner of the world. ... read full story / add a comment

In case you haven't already heard, Ward Churchill has been attacked by the American national media, and others, for an essay he wrote on September 11th a few years ago.
