3. lol hey there sweetie!
thats the earliest date though...
Ive been have MAJOR issues with this preggo :(
bleeding and what not
Ive been majorly sick for the last month (bronchitis and a list of other things)
and now they are saying that the baby is "small for its date"
which i think is a bunch of crap ... i think the baby should be due in may but they aren't believing me so Ive been having to go to the obgyn every few weeks to get an u/s
the baby looks healthy and it looks like he is going to come out around may 5th :)
so hopefully everything from now on will go a bit smother :)

The Human Rights Case Against Attacking Iran
By SHIRIN EBADI and HADI GHAEMI
A foreign military attack on Iran would be an utter disaster for the cause of human rights.

DURING her tour of Europe, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has given assurances that a military attack by the United States on Iran "is simply not on the agenda at this point." But notwithstanding Ms. Rice's disavowal, recent statements by the Bush administration, starting with President Bush's State of the Union address and Vice President Dick Cheney's comments about a possible Israeli military attack on Iran, are reminiscent of the rhetoric in the months leading up to the invasion of Iraq in 2003. And Ms. Rice herself made clear that "the Iranian regime's human rights behavior and its behavior toward its own population is something to be loathed."

American policy toward the Middle East, and Iran in particular, is often couched in the language of promoting human rights. No one would deny the importance of that goal. But for human rights defenders in Iran, the possibility of a foreign military attack on their country represents an utter disaster for their cause.
