Bush Administration Asked to End Decades Old US Foreign-Targeted Population Control Policy
Important press conference Thursday

WASHINGTON, December 8, 2004 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The rarely-spoken of foreign-targeted US population control policy will be given special public exposure tomorrow at a Human Life International (HLI) press conference.

HLI will address the three-decades-old population control policy that was drawn up based on a 1974 memorandum by Henry Kissinger, US Secretary of State during the administration of President Richard Nixon. Kissinger's National Security Study Memorandum 200 (NSSM 200) was a confidential document until declassified in the early 1990's and is still unknown to most Americans who would highly likely never have supported such a policy.

The plan called for collusion among the U.S. government, the United Nations and non-governmental organizations such as International Planned Parenthood Federation. According to NSSM 200: "Throughout the implementation of the [population control] process, we have to make sure to hide our tracks and disguise our programs as altruistic . . . hiding the fact that we want access to their natural resources."

HLI has called upon the Bush Administration to formally rescind the Kissinger population control policy and withdraw related funding from the United Nations.

NSSM 200, and the US population control policy which came from it, especially targeted thirteen countries for depopulation, countries which, if allowed to increase sufficiently in population, were seen to be able to challenge US economic superiority. Billions of US taxpayer dollars have since gone into funding population control in countries around the globe.

HLI explains in a release that NSSM 200 justified the radical population control methods it implemented by claiming it would: 1) prevent developing nations from becoming politically powerful; 2) protect U.S. investments in these countries; 3) maintain U.S. access to these countries' natural resources; 4) limit the number of young people in these countries, who are more likely to challenge existing social and political norms.

The press conference, to be held at the National Press Club in Washington DC at 9:30am, will feature leaders from several of the thirteen nations targeted by NSSM 200. These leaders will personally discuss the repercussions their countries have experienced as a result of the secret population control agenda contained in the memo.

"Recent articles in Newsweek and Parade magazines demonstrate that the 'need' for population control is nothing more than an over-hyped myth. The time has come for U.S. government policy to formally acknowledge this same basic truth," said Rev. Thomas J. Euteneuer, president of HLI. "For the past 30 years, billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars have gone to fund population control programs- this, too, must come to an end."

ping...this thread will get little if any discussion, but this policy of the USA is the number one crime against humanity by the US government in the last hundred years, a crime that calls out to God for justice and vengence.

And it is still the policy of the USA, to our eternal shame. Lord, have Mercy on us. Do not give us what we truly deserve. Please.

Please see the post on the 1970 GOP Task Force report for the rationale behind their "moral" attempts to rectify with population control the well-intentioned social programs which resulted in "down breeding."

Abortion is a GOP policy.

When will Christian conservatives learn this, take it to heart, and act upon it?

If evangelical minister/televangelist Pat Robertson is typical of evangelical Christians, then the answer is "NEVER."

In a CNN interview on April 16, 2001, [Pat] Robertson, the founder of the Christian Coalition and head of the Christian Broadcasting Network, was asked how he reconciles his support for close ties with China with Beijing's ruthless one-child policy, which has forced unwanted abortions on tens of millions of women. "I don't agree with it," Robertson said. "But ... they've got 1.2 billion people, and they don't know what to do. If every family over there was allowed to have three or four children, the population would be completely unsustainable.... They're doing what they have to do."

It would be hard to overstate the moral bankruptcy of those words, as well as this US policy.

Okay, I've been on this forum about as long as anyone, and I can't recall anyone saying any such thing. I'm not saying that no one has, just that it hasn't been very prevailant if so. Could you link a couple of posts?

Hmmm... when blacks are going to find that they were targeted (40% of abortion rates)... this is not going to go too well and could legitimize a form of "birth affirmative action" as in "all white kids are belong to us".

Of course, that Dems are the foremost proponents nowadays of abortion is going to go again under the radar screen.

Is this blackmail material against the GOP which all of a sudden is getting known for some reason? Kissinger is liberal RINO democrat, by the way.

I'm not saying there isn't more to be done (I'd like to see a formal retraction of the memo, too) but it seems odd to me that this story isn't acknowledging Mexico City or Bush's UNFPA de-funding in any way, shape or form.

I also think that you have to have more evidence than this to prove that a government is still consciously following a policy laid out 30 years ago; to say a lot of things have changed since the Nixon and Ford administrations is to put things lightly. True, we still pay for family planning, but the problem is that the sexual revolution made "family planning" so seemingly innocuous that I'd be surprised if we didn't have federal bureaucrats doing this, Kissinger memo or no Kissinger memo.

Moral Absolutes Ping.

Normally abortion topics aren't covered by this pinglist - not because the topic isn't important, but because other pinglists deal with it.

But this even more ramifications since it involves US foreign policy, is founded upon evil plans and goals, trying to undermine other sovereign nations. I hope we'll hear about the presser tomorrow, and which countries have been targeted.

Let me know if anyone wants on/off this pinglist.

Thanks, St. Johann, for the alert!

Actually, the burden of proof is on proving this is NOT still policy at the highest levels. Unfortunately, it still is.

When you're talking about a charge this serious, slapping it onto a different set of people thirty years later...I think we need to presume innocence while investigating fully. It's especially important that we don't focus on "Kissinger wrote this memo" when the real trouble is that most people have no problem at all with the sort of "family planning" these organizations carry out.

"Abortion is a GOP policy." ... What does the Scriptures say about a root of bitterness? ... Abortion is a policy endorsed by a lot of politicians unable to or unwilling to acknowledge the LIFE of the pre-born. To say it's a GOP policy the way you keep insisting, as if the DNC is merely a bystander in the farce, is getting a bit old, Askel.

Let's just hope the President doesn't take the lead from his father "Rubbers Bush"  the king of Title X and population control funding.
 

Facts About Title X - The National Family Planning Program

The national family planning program, Title X of the Public Health Service Act, was established in 1970 with broad bi-partisan support. The original measure was introduced by then Representatives James Scheuer (D-NY) and George Bush (R-TX) and Senators Joseph Tydings (D-MD) and Charles Percy (R-IL). The program supports a nationwide network of approximately 4,600 "clinics" and provides reproductive health services to approximately 5 million persons each year.   $280,000,000 was appropriated in fiscal year 2004

George Bush Presidential Library and Museum

I believe that the title X family planning program should be reauthorized. I now urge the Congress to adopt a bill that promotes true family planning rather than requiring Federal tax dollars to be used in a manner that promotes abortion as a method of birth control.

Take a look at the information on the HLI website and see for yourself the influence and hand the United Nations has in population control along with its various agencies: USAID, UNFPA and the so-called, pro-children UNICEF.

Marvin ...

It's a FACT, my dear man. Don't you read any of my threads I link again and again and again and again and again and again?

Do you really think I'd still be posting here if it weren't a FACT that abortion is a GOP policy?

I am very sorry to see you falling into the realm of Personal Interpretation such that you too are taking the "Askel hates Bush and the Pubbies" schtick. Don't understand I couldn't care less about Bush and most of my family and friends are Republicans for whom I have intense love and respect.

Doesn't change the THE FACT that abortion is GOP policy.

Read the links! I'm not going to say I told you so or anything. And I won't "wish I could see your face" as the truth dawns on you. Why? Because I remember what my face looked like -- and what my stomach felt like -- as it dawned on me.

We'll talk once you've read the links on this post.

Start with this one: Recommendations of the Task Force on Earth Resources and Population (George H. Bush, Chairman)

I doubt you can cast the Congressional Record as Conspiracy Central.

Please do not fail to scan through the entire thread, paying especially close attention to a few posts by Toenail wherein George Bush is appearing before Congress so that the committee hearing testimony newly-appointed eugenicists on subjects such as Down Breeding, Genetic/Hereditary Quality, the breeding of superior people "like cattle," and the prospects of "immunology" for population control.

Prepare to be sickened but hurry up and get angry for being taken for a stooge all your life.

I'm not bitter, Marvin. But if there's one thing that makes me very angry (if not also a bit depressed at times), it's the way folks I love and respect and know to be true have taken the bait of some some Big Lies ... hook, line and sinker.

It's a very frightening thing and not something you can always do something about.

Because the sad fact of the matter is, Marvin, that folks are far more Emotionally attached to their leaders than you would believe. That's why some truly can't conceive of my criticizing Bush without presuming I must "hate" him if I don't "love" him.

Very frightening thought, really. But one I try not to entertain regardless how often I'm reminded of same by the constant smearing of me on this forum as a "Bush-hater".

Absurd. Any Catholic who prays the Rosary almost daily as do I, prays at least five times a day that even those "most in need of mercy" will be led to Heaven. In other words, I probably pray for Bush more often than those who love him.

Thoughts on both of your points:

Marvin, I suspect that Askel is not so much bitter as she is trying to alert the readers to the fact that the GOP is not the pristine "Party of Life and Family" that so many sheeple, including many good folk on FR seem to believe. Many very well intentioned and sincere Pro-Life people get quite defensive when the facade of the GOP is pulled back.

I've been a registered Republican since the week of my 18th birthday and this continued GOP involvement disgusts me beyond words!

We cannot defeat the scourge of abortion without understanding "who's who" and "what's what" NSSM200 is a major part of the puzzle that needs to be taken into serious account. The "Pro-Life" plank of the GOP Convention Platform is a lie when seen next to the actual policy that the party continues.

The fact is Kissinger wrote 200 for a GOP Prez and Ford, another GOP, continued it.

Askel, IMO it may be better to finish the thought:

Abortion was part of a policy of global AND domestic population control and eugenics; which was enacted via executive order by two consecutive Republican administrations, with massive support from the Rockefeller wing of the Democrat party. This quickly became entrenched US government policy and embraced by many of both major political parties. NSSM200 has remained in effect through all administrations since it's implementation.

=== massive support from the Rockefeller wing of the Democrat party.


To be sure ... any Catholic who isn't familiar with Rockefeller's thinking to influence the Pope on Humanae Vitae or the closed door conferences Hesburgh held at Notre Dame preparatory to having Catholics mint the phrase "I'm personally opposed BUT I would never impose my beliefs on another" during Congressional hearings has yet to understand the very real Democrat complicity at work here.

But even more important than the fact there is really very little to distinguish the Elite of both parties, IMHO, is the truly tragic way the Democrats were charged with making abortion their "Litmus Test."

You can read posts on this forum and realize that plenty of so-called conservatives (among them quite a few "former Democrats", eh comrades? =) have no problems with abortion's being legal and support wholeheartedly the state's intervening to sanction birth control and artificial reproduction.

So the lines have blurred a bit but abortion's still waved like a red cape in folks' faces because it's vitally important that the Party of Dysgenics -- the Democrats -- off more of their own than the more prosperous and stable Republican constituency.

This is one point I wouldn't mind going over to DU and making one day though, to date, I've never been inspired to visit, even.

I have always wondered, however, if it would be possible to rouse a "woman scorned" sort of reaction out of Dems if enough began to realize how they'd been had. I suppose it's my utterly disappointing experiences as a Bloodhound among the NO-AIDS Task Force heavy-hitters that causes me to believe most -- from Jews to Catholics to homosexuals and feminists -- have Politicized their faith beyond repair and can't place anything before the Party ... even God himself or their own friends and family.
