Prince Harry Does Maori Haka
I don't have a problem with him doing the Maori Haka since this is part of the integration of Anglos and Maori in New Zealand. But would traditional Maori society have seen the mixing of men and women in the performing of the haka?

Is the Use of Force Against ISIS a Good Option?
One Catholic seems to think so: Recollections and Insights of an Iraqi Christian by Luma Simms
1. Is it permissible to command citizens to fight for the relief of another country from tyranny or invaders?
2. Even if the citizens agree to this, what is the moral justification for "intervention"? (Love of neighbor? Fostering the international common good? It would not be any sort of sovereign authority, transferred from the other country.)
3. Those who are saved by outsiders owe something to those outsiders; would it be wrong to force them to repay their debt? (At least with respect to providing for the families of outsider benefactors who die for them.)
