Anyone read the series by that Julia b!!!!? Each article begins with some handpicked quote in sanskrit or from manu- to tar this as some unique cultural attribute. What a hachet job. If they were truly concerned about the suffering of women, it’d be one thing, but heck, this was just another bit to dump on those not sufficiently white. Perverts.

"You're joking right ? Dharavi slum dwellers & piss poor BIMARU serfs churn out boys to lay waste to Pakistan ? That's not what Petra's post was suggesting. The point of the book is not that Indians & Chinese favor male children in order to meet expansionist goals, but rather that states fearing internal strife caused by unmarriagable males will prefer to expend this surplus testosterone abroad. "

When I wrote 'wider level', I wasnt refering to the individuals involved, who are clearly not going to be thinking about such things when making the decision to abort. However, Nature's purpose behind this is indeed the laying waste of Pakistan, due to, as mentioned, the unmarriable males.

Can you trust Archibald? He hasn\'t provided any proof on this issue yet, so it could be that theres some axe to grind.

True, but Fran Coomb's wife Marianne Kester Coombs is an "out" white nationalist who writes for VDARE & AMREN and is chummy with the BNP's Nick Griffin. Do we know for a fact that Mr. Coombs has made these comments ? No, but we do know he plays house with a racist. If you have any doubts about my claim, I invite you to read her essays & articles online. In case you are wondering, I lean right and am very sparing with the term "racist"

Regarding the conservative-liberal issues:- {1}
W is no liberal yet he went out of his way with in his own party on immigration, and will most likely attempt once more.

{2}
To complicate issue many liberal constituencies African Americans, unions, Port Huron types(they aren\'t dead, anti globalization is their offspring and the \'dude\' is still active(relatively speaking he still is the dude) in that circle), etc are all against immigration.

And this does not absolve India of having too many abortions. It still is an immoral act.

like an earlier poster said, if you want the real reason (at a wider level) for this increase in aborted females, it is because an excess of males is needed to take care of one of india's problems. the excess indian males are not going to america to marry white women. theyll be marching west allright, but not close to american shores.

Nothing wrong with giving the wonderful daughters (and sons) of America a choice between caramel and vanilla. You would think conservatives would support open markets

most people here are fair weather free marketeers. Contrast Lou Dobb's go-go 90's/pre-space.com countenance with his current "bug up the butt" mug. Free markets are best when India sticks to producing cheap cabana wear and sandalwood elephant pen caddys.

Manju-you're on the right track. Coombs' view on abortion is not meant for public consumption. Most of his readers are pro-life, so he's giving them what they want. If he were writing for a feminist audience he'd probably focus more on the gender angle. But he probably doesn't give a crap about abortion or women's rights. The issue here is miscegenation.

Personally I have a tough time believing either Archibald or Coombs. They both worked for the Moonie newspaper.

Archibald is telling us what Jones says that Coombs said. There is bad blood between Jones & Coombs. Was Jones trying to make Coombs look like an ass by ascribing the words "our girls" to Coombs? If so, mission accomplished.
