Abortion Activists Promote Sex at the UN While Poor Nations Need Food, Water

My Comment: This is pitiful and pathetic, and makes me ashamed to be an American. I have said for months the real war on women is in the middle east, it’s not in Texas, it’s not anywhere in the US. These women throwing fits because someone might take away their free birth control, their free condoms, or their free abortions make me sick!! There are women who are fighting for their basic life needs like living! And food, and water, and money to feed and clothe their children. Shame on you, shame on the church here, shame on all of us for allowing satan to mislead so many in this manner.

During the first two years of this decade, the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization estimates that nearly a billion people suffered from chronic undernourishment. United Nations data suggests that children were the most affected – almost half of all child deaths in the world can be attributed to hunger. Five million die every year.

Inaccessibility to clean potable water kills just as many. The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) in conjunction with the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that there are 800 million people in the world without access to clean water.

And again children are the most affected – a child dies every 20 seconds from water related illness. Millions more are killed, maimed, and disabled for want of drugs and antibiotics.

Food, water, and medicine – the most basic and most critical third world needs.

So you would think that when the United Nations convened the all-important and always overreaching Annual Commission on Population and Development in Manhattan this year, that those most fundamental needs of the poorest of us would be the primary focus and priority for the delegates involved in the high-level meetings.

They were not.

The theme of this year’s meeting “Trends in Migration,” provided the best opportunity to substantively and seriously address the life and death issues faced by so many in the developing world this year. Instead, the focus of the meeting turned to sex.

Yes, sex and abortion. Any reasonable person listening to the negotiations would have believed that when fleeing a war-torn region, and you’re injured or hungry and thirsty – nothing provides quite as much comfort as access to a curette wielding midwife with a handful of condoms telling you that “gay is ok.” Food and water? Not so much.

It is painful to acknowledge that as millions continue to die from thirst and hunger, the most powerful far-reaching body in the world is concerned with the sexual rights of 6-year-old girls.
