	Northern League (Italy) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In February 2006, the Northern League announced that it had reached an agreement with the Movement for Autonomy, a brand-new centrist party of Southern Italy led by MEP and President of the Province of Catania Raffaele Lombardo.
		The league has been often criticised, in Italy and abroad, for being too similar to a fascist party, having also organised a paramilitary group of "green shirts" (which carry no weapons).
		In June 2005, at a festival organised by the League, a banner inciting to "rape Pecoraro", (Alfonso Pecoraro Scanio, secretary of the Federation of the Greens and openly bisexual) was exposed; the banner caused outcry, and was condemned by the League's leadership

	[Genocide/1971] Nicholas Wheeler: "India as rescuer? Humanitarian Intervention in International Society" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		However, the use of the word 'confederation' by Awami League negotiators to describe their position on the role of East Pakistan in the constitution was perceived by the military as evidence of the League's secessionist ambitions.
		In seeking to justify India's intervention on humanitarian grounds, Ambassador Sen argued that the 'military repression' in East Pakistan was on a sufficient scale to 'shock the conscience of mankind'.
		Although India's intervention was not motivated by primarily humanitarian reasons, it counts as a humanitarian one, because (in addition to meeting the requirements of necessity and proportionality) the security reasons that led it to intervene and the means employed did not undermine the humanitarian benefits of the intervention.

	Humanitarian League
		Salt was General Secretary, Editor and founder of the League and the League's Journal from 1891 to 1920.
		The Humanitarian League has been established to enforce the principle that it is iniquitous to inflict avoidable suffering on any sentient being.
		In brief, the distinctive purpose of the Humanitarian League is to consolidate and give consistent expression to the principle of humaneness, and to show that Humanitarianism is not merely a kindly sentiment, a product of the heart rather than of the brain, but an essential portion of any intelligible system of ethics or social science.

	Is Humanitarian Aid Serving the Needy? (updated: 010104)
		Corresponding League guarantees focused on related "obligations of international concern" (4) which were incurred by League members as a condition of their joining the League.
		Some writers (6) suggest that minority protection obligations put in place at the time of the League could perhaps be a means of reinforcing UN resolutions and that certain relevant treaties and obligations under the League should be considered as remaining valid.
		If humanitarian aid is to be provided reliably and effectively, we must seek to universalize the rights of man. The question is how to champion individual human rights without encouraging unjustified violation of national sovereignty by outside powers or cutting across age-old spiritual and social values.

		Arab League Secretary-General Amr Moussa argued that the 29 August date stipulated in Resolution 1556 was not exactly a deadline but rather a target to achieve progress in "a developing process" to end the humanitarian crisis and set the scene for a political settlement.
		The League is "prepared to take part in any mediation under the guidance of the AU between the Sudanese government and the Darfur rebels," said the resolution.
		The League reached an agreement with the Sudanese government and the UN to establish a "joint implementation mechanism", which will allow the League to evaluate the progress Khartoum is making in its efforts to implement the UN resolution.

	AII POW-MIA - InterNetwork
		The League noted that since the trade embargo was ended in 1994 and bilateral relations were normalized in 1995, the expected increase in accounting results had not occurred.
		Noting that the League Delegation had just come from meetings with senior officials in Hanoi, the key Vietnamese commitments that relate to Laos were explained, including Vietnam's agreement to the proposed Four Party Conference to deal with specific concerns, such as resolution of the border cases.
		The League Delegation was pleased with the initiative to host a Lao officials meeting and with positive responses on the concept for the Four Party Conference, expanding the Lao unilateral team, and willingness to accept ethnic Lao American team members so long as they focus solely on POW/MIA matters and are sensitive to their surroundings.

	The 125th Anniversary of the International Review of the Red Cross - A Faithful Record -
		The creation of the League of Red Cross Societies was a milestone, for it came in response to a desire to encourage and develop solidarity among the National Societies in time of peace so that they could harmonize their efforts to alleviate human suffering.
		This was the spearhead of the activities conducted by the League, which had a longstanding reputation as being the organization most rapidly on the spot and with the highest performance in the field.
		In 1961, the League's Red Cross Development Programme was introduced for the purpose of organizing the National Societies as a force to provide relief and assistance to the population; a force that drew its strength from the participation of individuals whose activities were geared to the specific needs of each country.

	The Secret of the League - Ernest Bramah
		He was in point of fact a policeman, and from a thong on his wrist swung a truncheon, while the butt of a revolver showed at his belt.
		Its plot is developed rather patchily, and like most warning novels, was overtaken by real events and didn't come true — or in the long perspective, we may feel that much of it eventually came true after all, and quite unfortunately.
		The Secret of the League is not too strong economically, and perhaps the greatest weakness of the plot is that Bramah does not really show how the Unity League proselytizers convince and recruit the key members — a vital aspect of Atlas Shrugged.
