PRESIDENT BUSH SURPRISES PRO-LIFE LEADERS BY SELECTING KISSINGER FOR 9-11 POST

Kissinger Strongly Implicated in Population Control and Abortion

WASHINGTON, November 29, 2002 (LifeSiteNews.com) - U.S. President George W. Bush announced Wednesday that he had selected former secretary of state Henry Kissinger as chairman of a new independent commission to investigate the September 11 attacks. Pro-life leaders were surprised by the selection given the President's aversion to coercive abortion and Kissinger's close association with it.

President Bush was praised by the pro-life community internationally for his defunding of the United Nations Population Fund due to their association with the forced abortion and coercive sterilization practices in China. However, Kissinger was intimately associated with coercive population control as he is the author of the now-declassified national security study memorandum calling for population control - coercive if necessary, in the third world.

Gilles Grondin, a veteran United Nations diplomat and past President of Le Mouvement en faveur de la Vie/Campaign Quebec Vie, (the pro-life movement in Quebec), told LifeSite that he was surprised by President Bush's selection of Kissinger. Grondin, who with his vast UN experience has been one of the most successful pro-life lobbyists at the UN, points out that Kissinger's memo NSSM 200 formed the basis of U.S. foreign policy in the area of population.

Grondin explained that the Memorandum suggested that competition from new world powers would rise when developing nations had sufficient populations to utilize their national resources to their full potential. Thus, NSSM 200 was about ensuring U.S. strategic, economic, and military interest, at the expense of developing countries, by proposing population control including by coercive means if mere propaganda could not succeed.

What was your name before this new one?

Am getting sick of tired of some pro-lifers determining who is and who is not a conservative. Believe it or not, you are not the person in charge of who is considered a conservative.

BTW, I am not a RINO, never been a DemocRAT, am anti-abortion, and the like but I still probably don't meet your description of a conservative because I don't run around the Country claiming the sky is falling if President Bush appoints someone who is not anti-abortion to a position that has nothing to do with abortion.

"This much we do know: over 30 per cent of our youth between the ages of 15 and 25 are gone."

Kissenger's job is to find out about those 3,000 (of whatever age) in the WTC/Pentagon, that's all.
Anything else is not relevant to *THAT* search.

[foreverfree]

how the CIA called Bush but his twin daughters forget to give him the note. You know how young people forget to tell you about calls...

When did THIS little slipup happen?

foreverfree

[Jorge]

But what do his views on population control have to do with investigating the September 11, 2001 attacks?

NOTHING. They just give the perpetually unsatisfied fault finding nit-pickers something to complain about.

[sinkspur]

You can be such a CINO troll some days, Sink.

And you swallow Askel5's bullshit about Kissinger hook, line, and sinker, Poly. That's where you got this crap, isn't it?

She's the origin of Bush's father as forming abortion as policy for the GOP, when Bush Sr. renounced abortion in 1980, and governed as a pro-life president for four years.

I'm sick to death of you Judie Brown followers who make the good the enemy of the perfect.

I'm a CINO how, buster? I'm as pro-life as you, but I don't believe everything that spews from THE NEW AMERICAN.

You're going off half-cocked again.

[Righty1]

The rediscovery of Henry the K proves that repuds dig archeology too!

[Polycarp]

What was your name before this new one?

Don't worry, I have never been banned from Free Republic.

[SubMareener]

These folks need to get a life!

[SuziQ]

it is articles like this that give the pro-life movement "zero" credibility

Thankfully it probably won't get much publicity other than the folks here discussing it.

Look at it this way, if Dr. Kissinger is busy working on this investigation, he can't possibly be pushing any 'Population Control' agenda around the world at the same time.

[Dog Gone]

You FREeepers are a pathetic sort of conservatives, it seems.

Yes, you would certainly do better to never ever associate with such nasty, evil, pathetic people such as Freepers again.

[deport]

You FREeepers are a pathetic sort of conservatives, it seems.

You jump on the Freepers... Is that kinda like the "pathetic foot doctors"? See the accusations can fly both ways doc.

[sinkspur]

And now a rabid pro-abort CINO, Tom Ridge, is in charge of a big brother/ big government leviathon, in charge of defining and identifying terrorists, domestic and foreign, that even Clinton couldn't have dreamed up.

Tell us, exactly, how Ridge's position will influence abortion in Bush's cabinet?

[Hermann the Cherusker]

Exactly.

[deport]

And you jackasses criticize me for pointing this out?

The doc done gone to braying......

[ALS]

What the hell is all this nasty attitude stuff towards pro-life? Are you people advocating death? Get a frickin' life yourself. Seems like the low IQ is coming from you pro-death morons. If your so high on death, give to the cause and off yourselves, otherwise shut yer damn piehole.

[Nubbin]

Ping-a-ling!

[Jorge]

And few of your comprehend what it truly means to be Christian when you so smugly shrug off your duties to protect His least ones.

Right. As if anyone in their right mind is going to accept a single-issue fanatic as the self appointed judge of what it really means to be a Christian, let alone define their "duties"....lol

[RedBloodedAmerican]

She didn't ask if you were banned; she asked your other screed name.

[RedBloodedAmerican]

Being a Christian as you are, I am sure you would give her an honest answer on such a small matter.
