		<description>Great article, great comments.  Very thoughtful.  I wonder why more people are not tuned into this rather than waste time on, say, Steven Guess.</description>

		<description>Tahirih Hysteria

There is no shred of evidence demonstrating a higher rate of violence in cross-cultural marriages facilitated by the IMBs.  In fact, Tahirih Justice Center (the main proponent of IMBRA) even states, &quot;It is important to note that there are no national statistics reflecting what the prevalence of abuse is in the &quot;brokered&quot; marriages, specifically.&quot;  http://tahirih.org/legal/docs/Top10IMBRAFAQs(Final).pdf

With no scientific evidence of higher prevalence of abuse to support its claims, Tahirih Justice Center has been forced to  manipulate facts and create hysteria to maintain support for IMBRA.  One example that comes to mind is the case of David Dickerson, who was the victim of fabricated claims of rape and abuse alleged by his immigrant Latvian wife.  http://wbal.com/news/story.asp?articleid=47814 When the news broke, Layli Miller-Muro, the executive director of Tahirih Justice Center, promptly appeared in this case and raised hysteria about immigrant women abuse (&quot;30 to 50 percent are abused...&quot; - clearly, a fabricated data).  Here is the Tahirih hysteria for your viewing.  http://video.wjla.com/wjla/candidate0725.wmv

The WJLA video (Baltimore) has become rather well-known -  it was meant to serve as a propaganda piece for Tahirih, but clearly it backfired and is now the source of considerable embarrassment for this radical feminist organization.</description>

		<description>Also, if anyone of you really still believes that our enemy is in her pajamas sending a few emails between feeding her cats, you have not been reading www.mediaradar.org or the above mentioned ODR where we are documenting the huge sums of cash that are now going into well-oiled machines to be used against us.

Instead of envisioning the cats, watch this video and come to the realization that the only way to counter this sort of esprit de corps is to get some sort organization going.

Our enemy&#039;s world-wide power now exceeds the power presented in this film:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L1K6POZ_aK4&amp;mode=related&amp;search=

In particular, we need financing in the millions for a real organization that will then ask the federal government to finance us as well while cutting off the financing for the radfems (or at least replacing the directors of &quot;women&#039;s shelters&quot; with politically neutral administrators).

Try to get the email addresses of Paul McCartney and Michael Jordan and any other rich man who has been or is now being destroyed by feminists.</description>

		<description>By the way, when dealing with the Catholic Church, don&#039;t ever condemn gay males, because you really do not know whom you are speaking to. I just noted that the American traitor Charles Collins at Vatican Radio is about as left wing and non-heterosexually oriented as you can get. He has no ability to comprehend our position. His direct boss is Dr. Sean Patrick Lovett (an Irishman) who is at English@vatiradio.va</description>

		<description>Getting the Men&#039;s Rights Movement organized, so far, has been like herding cats.

We need full-time people with focused marketing and sales ability. Anyone who has a blog needs to be cross-posting what they see on other blogs in order to get critical mass on any one subject.

It is a frigging mistake to think that you should only post original content on your own blogs and it is a mistake, when someone says please write to this person at the UN or this person at the Vatican, that other men will pull their weight so you won&#039;t have to do anything.

The strongest organization that I have seen is RADAR where Dave Usher is a powerful influence. RADAR got Kofi Annan&#039;s ultra-feminist Report on Violence Against Women downgraded to just &quot;noted&quot; rather than &quot;welcomed&quot; by the UN Member States.

This is important because, where we have already lost the US Government to radical feminists in both political parties (see http://www.online-dating-rights.com/forum/index.php?topic=559.0 for proof of this), we can still save the world if other governments are made aware of the problem.

On January 26th, Tahirih made a vicious attack on American men by contacting and convincing Susie Hodges of Vatican Radio to do a broadcast condemning all American men who would consider marrying a woman from another country.

Here is the link:

http://www.online-dating-rights.com/forum/index.php?topic=678.0

This was one-sided and an Australian woman named Catherine at Vatican Radio was appalled at how Susie had done such a biased report.

Note that they took the broadcast down but then put it back up again when an American left wing gay male manager in the English Section of Vatican Radio decided that &quot;we stand by our story&quot;.

You can complain politely via sedoc@vatiradio.va addressing Mr. Peter Cocco and Father Andrej Koprowski.

The problem is that the 45 year old woman with two cats is an efficient marketing machine while all we do is tell each other that we won&#039;t let her rule our lives.

-------------------

On some other topics raised above, these women are not desperate, at least in East Europe. To get the best, you have to be one of the best and it will not matter that you paid $3000 to go on a tour or not. All kinds of women will go to a tour social because of the free gourmet food and caviar and champagne. If New York City career women were offered a Smorgasbord at the Hyatt Grand Central at 5:30PM on a business day, they would go and find it amusing if a few rich Chinese businessmen had paid for the event in order to say hi to them. The Harper journalist, if he had been single, would have written a different article.

I once ate at the bar downstairs from one of those social events (not knowing the event was going on) and met a great woman as she and her friend were leaving after getting a great gourmet meal. I do not recommend doing that on purpose because good companies like AFA deserve your support.</description>

		<description>They get paid a friggin&#039; fortune and don&#039;t even bother to read what they vote on. Pigs at the trough.  No taxation without representation is only worthwhile if the representatives actually do the job they are sent there for. American Aristocrats. They do not represent the people, only themselves. And you guys had a revolution. Huh. Have another and get it right this time. Break out the muskets. Find Paul Revere&#039;s great great great great grandson.</description>

This is one of the most frustrating things about Congress.

This is why the Republicans have an angry base.</description>

&quot;IMBRA should not be â€œsurmountedâ€, however easy you seem to believe to be the case.

It should be overthrown as a truly unconstitutional, sexist infringement on menâ€™s rights by feminists, working through their stooges in Congress.

Thereâ€™s no reason for men to tolerate such sexist and blatant misandry, pure and simple.&quot;

/1000% Agreed that we should not tolerate this law.

On my humble blog, I picked apart a recent article that some feminasty wrote lauding IMBRA, and I proceeded to email my thoughts to the author directly.

I have my online activism that I engage in, but we also live in the real world.

We as men have to be like water. If our way is obstructed, we have to be flexible and seek another way around it.

Martin said,

&quot;P.S. - good to see you here Mamonaku187 - glad that you seem to be doing fine.&quot;

Hey whats going on friend!!

The last time we met, we were flaming feminists to Hell on Forbes.Com!!

Good to meet up with ya again.

I think this needs to be repeated... while we wage our War on Feminism, we also have to realize that our personal happiness also matters.

In this case, law or no law, no 35 year old feminist lesbian with two cats and no hope for the future is going to dictate to me how to run my personal life.

As Sun Tzu wrote;

&quot;All warfare is based on deception.

Hence, when able to attack, we must seem unable;

when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when

we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are

far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.

20. Hold out baits to entice the enemy.  Feign disorder, and crush him.

21. If he is secure at all points, be prepared for him.

If he is in superior strength, evade him.&quot;</description>

<p>I have my online activism that I engage in, but we also live in the real world.</p>
<p>We as men have to be like water. If our way is obstructed, we have to be flexible and seek another way around it.</p>
<p>Martin said,</p>
<p>&#8220;P.S. &#8211; good to see you here Mamonaku187 &#8211; glad that you seem to be doing fine.&#8221;</p>
<p>Hey whats going on friend!!</p>
<p>The last time we met, we were flaming feminists to Hell on Forbes.Com!!</p>
<p>Good to meet up with ya again.</p>
<p>I think this needs to be repeated&#8230; while we wage our War on Feminism, we also have to realize that our personal happiness also matters.</p>
<p>In this case, law or no law, no 35 year old feminist lesbian with two cats and no hope for the future is going to dictate to me how to run my personal life.</p>
<p>As Sun Tzu wrote;</p>
<p>&#8220;All warfare is based on deception.</p>
<p>Hence, when able to attack, we must seem unable;</p>
<p>when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when</p>
<p>we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are</p>
<p>far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.</p>
<p>20. Hold out baits to entice the enemy.  Feign disorder, and crush him.</p>
<p>21. If he is secure at all points, be prepared for him.</p>
<p>If he is in superior strength, evade him.&#8221;</p>

		<description>P.S. - good to see you here Mamonaku187 - glad that you seem to be doing fine.

As it turns out, by coincidence about a week ago I was at a site which gave step-by-step instructions on how a U.S. citizen in Japan would go about marrying a Japanese national.  (My research was prompted by an unrelated article which had me curious about how their marriage laws might differ from ours.)  Net: the process is amazingly easy, and of course all you said is correct.  International law requires the U.S. and any other county to recognize the marriage.

Obviously the difficult part for someone over here who has no contacts over there is making first contact, which is where these brokers and matchmaking services come in.

Harper&#039;s magazine did a first person report about six months ago with an undercover reporter going on one of the &#039;wife hunting&#039; tours in Russia (if I recall correctly) put on by one of these agencies.  The portrayal of the other men on the tour was pretty much that they were all pathetic fat bald middle-aged losers (though some did have a few bucks), and the impression of the women they had lined up for introductions was not one to make you think they were the very good and wholesome gals suitable for bringing home to mom and dad.  I don&#039;t think IMBRA was raised at all.  Maybe the reporter just picked the wrong outfit to get involved with, though it still sounded like it would have been more fun than going on a cruise ship with a bunch of boring retired couples.</description>

		<description>The passage of the International Marriage Broker Regulation Act is a democratic atrocity that should be investigated by Congress.

Layli Miller- Muro of the corrupt Tahirih Justice Center (main proponent of the law) recently stated the law &quot;enjoyed wide bi-partisan support&quot;.
This is an outright lie. The law first introduced in 2003 was a &quot;dud&quot; with no support from legislators viewing it as unconstitutional.  The proponents deceptively attached it to another large bill when no one looking being passed without any debate by an unrecorded and undemocratic voice vote that Stalin would have heartily applauded.

When was the last time Congress agreed on anything! Most legislators failed to read the law. When it was explained to them (later) many were embarrassed that the radical feminist pulled a &quot;fast one&quot; forcing their radical views on a free society.

The last time background checks were required in order for two people to get married occurred in 1938 in Germany and we all know what happened after that. This law sets a dangerous precedent for more government intervention into our personal love lives. I suspect they will try to get mandatory  background checks to regulate all US marriages next! Welcome to the Tahirih Justice Centers&#039; brave new (corrupt) world.</description>

		<description>WRT what Cantwell says, these are precisely the reasons they want to come over here where women are pandered to and live like pampered aristocrats if they marry well, where they have many educational and professional opportunities, and where properly socialized (i.e., &#039;patriarchal&#039;) men are taught from an early age &quot;you never hit a girl&quot;.

For those benefits they&#039;re willing and wanting to immigrate alone, just like any strong, independent woman would do.  It&#039;s their choice, which feminists here seem to want to deny them.</description>

		<description>&quot;Most of the foreign brides advertised by the international marriage brokers come from countries where women are oppressed, have few educational or professional opportunities, and where violence against women is condoned,&quot; Cantwell said. &quot;Because these women often immigrate alone, they have no family or other support network.&quot;

Same feminist message of woman victim, man oppressor.</description>

		<description>Tristan,

I have registered on your site, and browsed through the home page.

So the feminists at Tahirih &quot;justice&quot; Center were provided with nearly a quarter million dollars of taxpayers&#039; money to incite distrust and misandry toward American men.

Yet your organization has to ask for donations.

Count me in - it&#039;s time to defang some of the poisonous reptiles in charge of that sordid bit of hatred for every American born with a penis.</description>

		<description>Mamonaku, please note that IMBRA currently covers those marriages between Americans and foreign nationals through marriage introduction services.

At this time, IMBRA has no jurisdiction over individuals who met privately, without the use of marriage introduction services.

Perhaps feminists will try to address ALL American men who attempt to marry foreign nationals in a future version of IMBRA.

And make no mistake:  IMBRA is an assault on men&#039;s rights, as Dave Usher&#039;s writing has clearly pointed out.

IMBRA serves to sow suspicions among foreign women who are looking to &quot;marry up&quot; through a cost-effective means of contact:  marriage introduction services.

And the feminists have driven the price of that contact up through their rancid piece of misandry.

&quot;IMBRA, while blatently sexist and unconstitutional on its face, is not all powerful.
It can be easily surmounted, with patience and planning.&quot;

IMBRA should not be &quot;surmounted&quot;, however easy you seem to believe to be the case.

It should be overthrown as a truly unconstitutional, sexist infringement on men&#039;s rights by feminists, working through their stooges in Congress.

There&#039;s no reason for men to tolerate such sexist and blatant misandry, pure and simple.

Peace.</description>

		<description>Gentlemen and ladies of Mens News Daily!

I am a very long time lurker,first time poster.

I wanted to thank all of you guys for educating me on a great many issues, as well as for the unique and relevant discussions I have often read on these pages.

So, let me share my experience...

My wife is Japanese. We met here in the US of A, and we got married in Kyoto, Jp in June of 2006.

When we were applying for the various papers one needs from the US Embassy, there was no discussion of IMBRA in the slightest.

In fact, the consulate officer told me that we were not required to inform the U.S. Government about our marriage until of course

a) Tax time comes around and we file Married

b) I petition the Feds for her K-3 spouse visa.

And so, I&#039;ve been going through the motions since July, and I&#039;m about 6 months and $1800.00 into the process.

My attorney did in fact submit a criminal history form on me, but it was a painless procedure.

I suspect that once you marry the foreign national in her country (or here in the states for that matter), the only thing that feminasties can do is inform her of the myriad number of &quot;Domestic Violence&quot; programs she is entitled to, as well as the Affidavid of Support that I had to sign that says that I have to support her for two years, even if we get divorced.

Which is a given in any case.

In summary:

For those wishing to go foreign, I would recommend cultivating Male contacts from the country of your choice.

After a time, when you and your foreign buddy are on really good terms, he can introduce you to his native country woman whom he knows is a good fit for you.

This is important, because the native guys know the lay of the land, and which girls to avoid.

After that, it takes some travel to your target country, some timely introductions by trusted third parties, and you are all set!

IMBRA, while blatently sexist and unconstitutional on its face, is not all powerful.

It can be easily surmounted, with patience and planning.

Thanks for reading these words, and thanks again to all the men (and women) who contribute their efforts to the cause of Mens Rights!

Peace.</description>
