Is Pro Choice always the Right Choice?

In a world where issues divide societies and plague our moral conscience, many seek to try and decide how to enact mutually acceptable compromises that will satisfy both parties.  In many instances, when an issue divides a society, the compromise that many propose is the "Pro-Choice" compromise.  In this, they simply assert that every individual has the right to make their own conscience decision on what they should do, and it's best to just leave it at that.  However, is that always the right choice?  Let us take the issue of slavery as an example.  

In the mid 19th century, the issue of slavery was coming to the forefront of America politics.  This issue was being debated over by states, Congress, even the Supreme Court.  Many of those in the Democratic Party supported what we would call the "Pro Choice" compromise, in which each state or even community makes their own decision over whether or not to have slaves.  However, one must ask, would our society today agree with this viewpoint?  The answer is no.  There are some issues in our world that should not be settled with the "Pro-Choice" compromise.  There are some moral absolutes in our world.  Atrocities like rape, murder, and kidnapping must be made illegal, regardless of what area of the country we live in for a simple reason, it's wrong.  

 Now in the 19th century, many protested abolishing slavery, using arguments like "It's an economic necessity, it will do more harm than good to abolish it, they're not fully human anyway, it's too difficult to initiate such a drastic change."  Well, when you use points like this to defend an inhumane practice, maybe you need to take a long look at your society and start accepting that fact that we need to start changing the way we act, and the way we think.  Sometimes it's easier to be "Pro Choice," but there are times when we need to stop being "Pro Choice," and start being "Right Choice."

Hamas Invasion of Israel

The brutal invasion of Israel by Hamas caught the entire world by surprise.  Over the last few years Israel has become accustomed to turning back rocket attacks and occasional cross-border raids by Hamas terrorists, but nobody anticipated this brutal full-out invasion.  Already being dubbed as "Israel's 9/11," militants stormed across the Gaza border and attacked towns across southern Israel.  Already over 900 Israelis are confirmed dead, thousands more wounded, and over 100 hostages, including women & children, have been taken back to Gaza ( Video Footage of Massacres ).   Israeli Woman Taken Hostage by Hamas The deadliest massacre so far took place at the Nova Music Festival in the Negev Desert close to Urim, a Jewish community that lives close to the Gaza Strip.  At 6am on Oct. 7th, the attack on the festival began as rockets rained down and Hamas gunmen appeared and opened fire.  As of now over 260 Israelis are confirmed dead from this attack alone with a number o

The Plague of Jihad is all over the world.  The past few days has witnessed Israel suffer the most horrific attack that it has endured since the October War of 1973, yet for all of the senseless death, for all of the footage that we see of Hamas militants murdering Israelis in cold blood, many in the world are in fact celebrating this atrocity.   Hamas Supporters in Canada In Iran, crowds of Hamas supporters took to the streets to celebrate the slaughter of Israelis by Hamas while their government leaders lavished praise on the terrorists ( Link to Article ).  In the nation of Turkey, Hamas supporters crowded the streets of Istanbul chanting "Allahu Akbar" & "Khaybar Khaybar Ya Yahud" ( Link to Video ).  "Khaybar Khaybar ya yahud, jaish Muhammad soufa ya'oud" is the full version of the chant.  It translates to "Khaybar Khaybar or Jews, the Army of Muhammad will return."  For those unfamiliar with the context of this chant, Khaybar was the

Hamas and Their Child Soldier Training Camps

For years the world has known that Hamas deliberately targets children for indoctrination and training to carry out terrorist missions.  They have camps throughout Gaza and other areas of the Middle East where children are taught to hate, & trained to kill.  These camps are often referred to as "Summer Youth Camps."  The titles sound harmless enough, but unlike the summer youth camps in the U.S. and other Western nations where children play games, do crafts, and in general, have fun, the Hamas "Summer Youth Camps" are nothing like this.  They're training camps, where children are trained in weapons handling, military drills, and are indoctrinated to "hate the Infidel," particularly Jews.   Link to Video On videos that have circulated across the online world, these children have openly confessed that they have come here for the purpose of learning to fight.  One such video surfaced on MEMRI with a child openly stating "We did not come here to e
