...choice position represents the woman's right to opt whether to carry her baby to term. Perhaps she didn't intend to get pregnant in the first place--should the unrequested pregnancy burden her for her lifetime? Rape violates the agency of the woman; she should not be required to keep alive something that she is attached to, but is completely foreign...
...this is what Dean Lewis intended, it is absolutely outrageous that he feels Harvard's responsibility for campus safety is entirely fulfilled by decreeing that women students should not walk alone at night.

Dudayev: First, a major hotbed of instability in the Caucasus will have been settled. Otherwise Dagestan [the neighboring Muslim republic east of Chechnya] could be next to explode. Second, Russia wouldn't have to send trillions of rubles here, since once the conflict is settled, we don't intend to ask Russia for any money. We can jointly exploit the riches of this land, including income from [energy] transports through this key geographical area...
