Livre d'Or

Hi, welcome and thanks for your kind words as well as for your thoughtful extension of the discussion. I warn you that most of my journal is not serious, carefully composed political essays like this one, just random personal stuff and a lot of reviews.

Very cogent point about war crimes. It's not an issue that usually comes up in the standard abortion debate, and I think it is important to consider.

And I think your Foucaultian bit agrees with me, that both the pro choice and the pro life movements are harmful to the women who suffer from discrimination and injustice. If it isn't callous to include rape in that category, it is perhaps the most extreme example of such.
