Two good new articles today might be of interest.
The articles might not always come up – if the news source requires a login..
So I reference them here – and the link is attached to the news article.Could the future of Internet gambling in the US lie in Antigua?

Deadline for WTO decision on Antigua internet gambling set for April 3

Thing is, will the US pay attention to what the world trade organization says?
I’m not sure the US will care. But god forbid if a country wants to refuse terminator seeds or GM food.
The US barely listens to the UN, you think they give a c$%@ what the WTO and Antigua are aledging? Remember, this administration believes that online gambling has a direct link to terrorists, they also believed that Iraq had WMDs in the absense of proof.
I wish the WTO held some sway over the US, I’m just too jaded to believe it.
This one is an update. Pretty complicated reading.
“Deadline for U.S.Compliance With WTO Gambling Ruling Comes and Goes With No U.S. Action”

A different article. Different topic with a new guy – Rep. Jim Leach (R-Iowa) – pushing his bill.
“Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act”
“The bill is sponsored by Rep. Jim Leach (R-Iowa). The Wall Street Journal Online asked Rep. Leach and David Carruthers, chief executive of BetOnSports Plc, an online sports book and casino based in Costa Rica, to debate whether Internet gambling should be banned in the U.S. Their exchange, carried out over email, is below.”
Quite a long article and url. But a good debate.

I hope the Wall Street Journal keeps this article up.
