EU Court Rules that Irish Abortion Law Violates Human Rights Standards

I would argue that this is a another example of how Ireland is a 3^rd world nation masquerading as a modern one by virtue of geography, but that critique would apply to the US as well:

Ireland's constitutional ban on abortion violates the rights of pregnant women to receive proper medical care in life-threatening cases, the European Court of Human Rights ruled Thursday in a judgment that harshly criticized Ireland's long inaction on the issue.

The judgment from the Strasbourg, France-based court will put Ireland under pressure to draft a law extending limited abortion rights to women whose pregnancies represent a potentially fatal threat to their own health.

A right to receive proper medical care?

Well, that doesn't exist here either.
