No, the legal system has long had to deal with far more complex situations. Its not just the two biological parents who have legal standing with a child.
You have surrogates, grandparents as primary carers, parent's (gay) partner acting as parent ... All have legal rights - ( well, here, I'm not sure about Saudi Arabia or the USA.) - you do not need to be a parent to apply for custody or access rights.

Sperm donors do not go on the birth certificate, and donors of eggs without chromosomes would have even less reason.
 

In most, countries, many such rights are acquired at the time of birth, and others at age milestones, notably 18.
Embryos and foetuses are never legal persons, so cannot have legal rights as such. It does not mean there is not a mountain of regulations protecting them.

Dude, I have some really bad news for you about Apollo I. They didn't even make it off the launchpad - all dead in a fire.
There were four more manned missions, and a number of unmanned missions before Apollo 11 reached the lunar surface.

If it works, they could mandate something analogous for Congressmen.

In orbit, you don't have a big rock blocking the sunlight half the time.

You cannot seriously discuss US middle-eastern policy without mentioning the Jewish/Israeli lobby. Or if you don't, its the elephant in the room.
The same applies to oil. Middle-east wars would be about as interesting as the latest conflict in the Congo if they had no oil and no Israel.

Thats a very bold accusation, coming from someone who admits to being one article away from complete ignorance on the subject.
The British and French were trustees of those lands after the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. They had promised independence to the Arabs, for supporting them in WWI. What were they supposed to do? Leave the Arabs to sort out a diplomatic solution amongst themselves?

Actually it is worse.
When somebody finally got around to looking at the 9.5GB proof, it started like this:

All work and no play makes HAL a dull program.
All work and no play makes HAL a dull program.
All work and no play makes HAL a dull program.
All work and no play makes HAL a dull program.
All work and no play makes HAL a dull program.

...

Yeah, yeah, but your psychologists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could that they didn't stop to think if they should.

What if it starts breeding? Have they learned nothing from the Fake Irish Pub plague that has ravaged the world?

Not that old myth! What you and I call beer, the British call lager, and drink it chilled like everyone else.
But there is an extra option: if you go to a real English pub, and order a traditional ale, it is served at cellar temperature.
These days, lager is much more popular.

Holly: Nothing wrong with UA Army pizza. Full of goodness, full of vitamins, full of marrowbone jelly. Lasts longer than any other type of pizza, US Army pizza.
Lister: Why?
Holly: No bugger'll eat it. Plus, of course, the advantage of US Army pizza is that when it goes off, it tastes exactly the same as when it's fresh.
Lister: Why didn't you tell me, Holly?

The China National Space Administration has already announced they will no longer be sourcing components via Alibaba or eBay.

State rights?
If states really had any rights, they would have been allowed to secede in 1861, and no longer be a problem.

I'm sure the NSA assumes they have moles, and none of the data Snowden released is a surprise to the Russians or Chinese.
The NSA was just not prepared for the truth to leak to their real enemy - the general public.

Who'd have thought? Experienced IT guy didn't manually download each file!?

"Inexpensive and widely available" - I hope they don't mean some evil subversive communist open-source tool.

No, because there is this big reef in the way, that forms a rather great barrier.
