Dear Friends
Many articles in all parts of the world have commented on the Connecticut murder of young children
Quite a number of articles have pointed out that young children in Pakistan are also being murdered....by "drones"....and that these children also should be mourned. (See two such articles on yesterday's menu)
And
a few articles speak about a third group of murdered young children
...babies in the womb, who in some parts of the world can even be legally
aborted anytime before birth...which means even a few minutes from birth
The killing of young children of any age is ....murder
May this Christmas move the hearts of leaders around the world to take action to stop children being murdered....by strict gun laws, by stopping the use of drones in Pakistan, and by fostering a culture of life where abortion becomes a rarity
