NEWEST MORALITY NEWS:   Hamas has banned motorcycle riders from carrying women on the back seat - the latest in the Islamist group's virtue campaign in Gaza.  The ban was posted on Hamas Interior Ministry Web site on Tuesday, in an effort "to preserve citizen safety and the stability of Palestinian society's customs and traditions."  Hamas wants to impose a strict interpretation of Islam. Its other efforts have included breaking up mixed couples on the beach and obliging female lawyers to wear headscarves in court.

And some "progressives" love these people, and heap contempt on Christian conservatives in the United States.  The world turned upside down.

LONDON, Oct. 5 (UPI) -- A British government document advising officials on how to keep documents from leaking to the Internet has been published -- on the Internet.  The 2,400 page Defense Manual of Security, authored by the Ministry of Defense to help high-ranking military and defense officials keep documents safe from leaks, was published on Wikileaks, a Web site designed for anonymous leaks of documents from governments and other organizations, The Daily Telegraph reported Monday.

At least this didn't happen at Normandy.  A different Britain then.
