A Worm in the Apple
Apple is a great American success story, and we can say of the late Steve Jobs: He did build that. But there’s a problem with Apple in China. The Beijing government’s forced abortion policy is worming its way into the factories of Apple, Inc. Twenty-four of these factories, it is reported, have helped the Communist government’s brutal efforts to prevent so-called unauthorized births to Chinese mothers.
Exiled human rights champion Chen Guangcheng is reporting on the collaboration of Apple in compulsory pregnancy testing of Apple’s Chinese employees. Chen told Bloomberg News that Apple should refuse to comply with such gross violations of human rights in their facilities. Chen urged Apple to take a stand for human rights — to stop the Beijing government’s cruel pursuit of young mothers. This, we know, is the real “war on women.” And it’s currently being waged with active collaboration of U.S. companies.

No worries, when that policy is established in the US, Apple will be no help here either.

People who buy Apple products are as fanatical about Apple as Muslims are about Mohamhead.

i always “liked” the part where – a few years ago, folks were flinging themselves over the parapet wall of the 12 storey Foxxcon building where they work on those little handheld Apple crittertronics for all the worthy people – 12 hrs/day, 6 days/week …and NOT A WORD from the proggie do-gooders about abuse – guess them electronics cost too much already

To the Left, the War on Women is forcing them to have babies, not forcing them to abort babies–babies who, in China, are predominantly female and, thus, do not get to grow up to be women who can be forced to abort more babies…
