Abortion and homosexuality proposed to stop AIDS

A Family Watch International team arrived in New York City to take part in the 53rd session of the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW), reports Annie Franklin, FWI Director of United Nations Activities in a special press release.

This year the ridiculous theme of “The equal sharing of responsibilities between women and men, including caregiving in the context of HIV/AIDS” has been adopted. The UN wants to dictate how men and women share household responsibilities.

However, that is just the beginning. There have already been proposals behind the scenes to promote “sexual and reproductive rights” (read abortion, promiscuity, homosexuality and transgenderism) as the solution to the AIDS pandemic.

In a UN panel sponsored by Sweden and Norway promoting sexual and reproductive rights, Norway’s State Secretary to the Minister of International Development, Mr. Hakon A. Gulbrandsen stated, “The most dangerous day for a woman is the day she gives life.”

The underlying theme of many of the meetings here is that giving birth is too dangerous for women, therefore, not only should all mothers have the right to abort their babies, they will be better off if they do so.

During these two weeks, UN delegates will lock horns over abortion and sexual rights and painstakingly debate and spell out steps to try to dictate the sharing of responsibilities between genders.

The Family Watch is going to try to stop them.

The document that is being negotiated calls for the universal ratification, without any reservations, of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women, also known as CEDAW.

The Commission also calls for the ratification of the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC).

This wording was put in the document to give the new Obama administration a tool to force U.S. ratification of these treaties, as the U.S. is the only major country that has not yet ratified them.

The new U.S. delegation to CSW, all Obama appointees, announced that they will work to ensure U.S. ratification of CEDAW and the CRC and that they are very confident they can gather enough Senate votes to ratify these treaties, which will supersede U.S. laws and which are an all out assault on motherhood, life, family, parents and religious freedom.

FWI in the Trenches

In many long hours in the basement of the UN, the Family Watch team is working hard to produce materials and strategies in cooperation with the UN pro-family coalition to stop the work of radical feminists and homosexual activists who are present by the thousands.

FWI family advocates are identifying friends of the family among the UN delegates to provide them with family-supportive language to propose for inclusion in the document and encourage them to work to eliminate language that is harmful to the family.

A happy sight this year at CSW is a group of high school girls from Mexico City brought here by the Catholic Family and Human Rights Institute.

Coming to the UN at their own expense, these lovely young girls support the coalition by bravely standing for family and life. They are earnest and sincere and are making a good impression on UN delegates. Family Watch has prepared some flyers for them to use as they lobby UN delegates.
