Gay Spouses Seek First Same-Sex Divorce In Canada....
TORONTO (CP) - Barely a year after an Ontario court gave its blessing to same-sex marriage, a lesbian couple is trying to untie the knot in what critics dismissed Wednesday as little more than a judicial stunt to test the limits of Canada's divorce laws.

The pair, identified in court documents only as J.H. and M.M., were together for five years prior to their decision to get married last June, but were separated just five days later - two weeks after the Ontario Court of Appeal legalized same-sex marriages.

Comments
The E.U. and Israel are at odds with one another.  In fact, Israel has cut them out of the peace process altogether.  They have decided to go in the direction of a U.S. and Egypt led peace plan.  Of course, I believe the E.U. is the direction they will ultimately go but right now it looks like they are going with a plan that does not call for them to knockdown their security fence.  The biggest contention over the wall is that it goes across disputed land the Palestinians say is theirs.  The E.U. has backed the world court decision that calls for Israel to teardown the wall.  Now they find themselves on the outside of the peace process looking in.  Don't look for this to be long-term.

Germany would like to create a super commissioner position but is receiving resistance from the new European Commission president-designate Jose Manuel Durao Barroso.  Eventually, they will get their super commissioner and he will rule the world.  I also believe that Germany will be one of the three countries he (antichrist) will have to subdue as predicted in Daniel 7:24.

In Canada, the first of many gay marriages is ending in divorce.  That's good for America!  Maybe that will send a signal to the U.S. Senate that sanctioning gay marriage  may not be such a good idea after all.  Of course, the retractors will say the divorce rate of gays will be no worse than straight marriages.  That's another problem!  If we legalize gay marriage we'll double the divorce rate and bog the courts down that much more.
