Hard line Islamist groups are hunting down gay people in Iraq by locating people through internet chat rooms. This year alone hundreds of gay men have been hunted down, tortured and killed by gangs who have turned to policing the supposed moral and cultural sphere now the Iraqi police are more successfully carrying out normal law enforcement.
One mother described how she received a blood soaked note claiming her son had been purified and where to find his body. He was discovered tortured to death - his anus glued shut and penis cut off.
The hunting down and killing of openly gay people in post invasion Iraq is nothing new, but hunting people down and killing them by hunting them down on the web marks a new low for human rights in the country.
Under Saddam Hussein the gay community was largely left alone. Since the dictators removal from power the vacuum has been filled by Islamic extremists.Hard line Islamist groups are hunting down gay people in Iraq by locating people... more

Linda the penguin has split up two male penguins who lived as a nesting couple for six years at the San Francisco Zoo, caretakers said.
Male penguins Harry and Pepper had been so content together they were allowed to incubate and hatch an egg laid by another Magellanic penguin last year, zookeeper Anthony Brown said.
"Of all of the parents that year, they were the best. They took very good care of their chick," Brown told the San Francisco Examiner in a story published Saturday.
Enter the widow Linda, who began courting Harry in her partner's old burrow shortly after his death this past winter, Brown said.Linda the penguin has split up two male penguins who lived as a nesting couple for six... more

JK Rowling has revealed that one of her characters, Hogwarts school headmaster Albus Dumbledore, is gay. She made the revelation at an event in New York.
He was smitten with rival Gellert Grindelwald, who he beat in a battle between good and bad wizards long ago according to Rowling who went on to say "Falling in love can blind us to an extent," and Dumbledore was "horribly, terribly let down" and his love for Grindelwald was his "great tragedy".
Gay rights campaigner Peter Tatchell welcomed the news about Dumbledore and said: "It's good that children's literature includes the reality of gay people, since we exist in every society.
"But I am disappointed that she did not make Dumbledore's sexuality explicit in the Harry Potter book. Making it obvious would have sent a much more powerful message of understanding and acceptance."JK Rowling has revealed that one of her characters, Hogwarts school headmaster Albus... more

Swedish gay pride have come up with an innovative new website to help you figure out just how gay you are... by analyzing your Twitter stream.
So if you're a man who's a bit gay and are in denial, better start tweeting about manly things like FIGHTING, BOXING and FIGHTING WEAKER MEN, before taking the test.
I, er, came out, with a score of 94% heterosexual. To celebrate I decided to speak in a more monosyllabic style, and I threw away all of my books, so I can spend more time weight-training and fighting, as the test implies that this is my destiny.

A letter sent to the Irish justice minister by the mother of a gay son has inspired a protest today outside the Irish parliament for gay marriage.
Helen Doody's letter, in which she asked minister Dermot Ahern to "revise [the civil partnerships bill] so everyone can be equal", is fast becoming an internet sensation.
Speaking to PinkNews.co.uk last night, her son Declan said: "When the letter came out on the internet, my mum didn't expect the reaction.
"When I read the email, I never expected that. We had never talked about gay marriage although she knew one day I wanted to get married. It's amazing.
On the hastily-arranged protest, he said: "My friend Tony said that as the government go on holiday soon, this could be a good chance to remind them we want marriage.
"We're hoping as many people as possible will come down, maybe at least 50 or 60.
"We've had two radio stations covering it and it was in the newspaper this morning. Since Monday, it seems to have gone around the world, I've heard its on websites in Germany and Australia.
"Within 20 minutes of me posting it, a well-known drag queen had it on her website. Then it was on Facebook."
The protest will be held outside Parliament Buildings (Dail Eireann) at 1pm today. Another, larger protest is scheduled for August when parliament returns.
Despite her forthright yet eloquent letter, Mrs Doody has declined to speak to the media.
Declan said: "She refused to talk to the radio stations, she was worried she might say the wrong thing or offend other people. Although the newspaper printed her letter this morning and she's had loads of people congratulating her."
