Today is "World Day Against the Death Penalty" and the Christian Science Monitor has an article titled "Europeans press the US to end the death penalty". The article begins by noting "The United States does not often find itself in a league with China, Iran, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia...[but] that list of the five countries where nearly all of 2008's executions were carried out is where the US finds itself."
The Brisbane Times has an article titled "Melbourne rally protests death penalty."

The Taiwan News has an article titled "NGO calls for universal abolition of death penalty."
