coming soon.. I can finally type クモ into the internet search bar (maybe クモ.com?) instead of kumo.

New Jihad Code of Ethics
Proof that history happens right here. Reading this makes me feel like I'm back in religious studies, tracking the change of Catholic Canon through the ages.
The Libyan Islamic Fighting Group (LIFG) has just released a 417 page religious document titled "Corrective Studies". The most relevant portion to us would be the "Jihad has ethics and morals because it is for God. That means it is forbidden to kill women, children, elderly people, priests, messengers, traders and the like. Betrayal is prohibited and it is vital to keep promises and treat prisoners of war in a good way. Standing by those ethics is what distinguishes Muslims' jihad from the wars of other nations." part.

"Conservative crisis"
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/11/01/nyregion/01upstate.html
the tl;dr : The GOP isn't willing to let a pro-abortion, pro-gay marriage candidate call themselves a Republican.
Who knows if excommunicating the moderates will be a good political decision or not... It looks like there's quite some work to do before Social Right can be untangled from Financial Right.
