Al Gore Says You’re a Denier If You Disagree In Any Way With His Climate Decrees
In Al Gore’s first film, An Inconvenient Truth in 2006, a High Court in the UK was concerned  about it being shown in schools since it had nine “significant” errors. His new film does as well.

The Chinese Exclusion Act Was An Assault on Private Property
Many private employers were contracting with Chinese workers to move to California and work. And then Congress outlawed the contracts. The first sweeping immigration law in the US was the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882. This law was a reaction to the growing anti-Chinese sentiment that was erupting throughout the country, particularly in the West. The anti-Chinese and anti-immigration movement followed the predicable evolution of domestic workers growing increasingly disgruntled at having to compete with foreigners for jobs.

Austria's Parliamentary Elections May Prompt U-Turn of Ties With Russia
As preparation for the Austrian parliamentary elections are heating up, Sputnik discussed the possible consequences of the vote with Austrian politician Andrey Serov. The parliamentary election in Austria is set to take place on October 15. A recent poll has suggested that Foreign Minister Sebastian Kurz of the center-right Austrian People's Party (OVP) has the best chance to become the new chancellor. The 31-year-old Kurz, who is also Austria's acting Minister for Foreign Affairs and Integration, seeks to be loyal to the European Union, while trying to maintain its neutral status toward other countries. His main opponents are Christian Kern from the Social Democratic Party of Austria and the leader of the Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ), Heinz-Christian Strache. The latter is known as a Eurosceptic and supporter of the right of nations to self-determination. In contrast to many other EU politicians, Strache doesn't oppose the idea of Catalonia's independence, hoping that South Tyrol would also have a chance to secede from Italy and become a part of Austria.

'Shaping Politics': Why the US 'Interferes' in Elections in Foreign Counties
The results of a recent survey conducted by Ifop, according to which residents of France, Germany, the UK and Poland believe that it is the US, not Russia, who interferes into foreign elections, are "entirely predictable," political expert Prof. Dr. Cristian Nitoiu told Sputnik. The US is seeking to change the existing order in those countries "where the political system differs from Western notions of democracy," Cristian Nitoiu said, adding, "US embassies around the world are often anecdotally seen as the place where the final outcome of elections is decided."
