Abortion-Pushing UN Committee Must be Held Accountable Local political action encouraged in nations to halt nationals from participating in UN bullying GENEVA, November 10, 2004 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Pro-life leaders worldwide are saying, "enough is enough" regarding the abortion push and other radical social engineering being imposed on the world via the United Nations.

LifeSiteNews.com spoke with pro-life leaders in various countries today, all of whom were outraged that the United Nations Human Rights Committee (UNHRC) urged Poland to liberalize abortion laws, and implement sex-ed, contraception and gay rights programs. (see LifeSiteNews.com coverage http://www.lifesite.net/ldn/2004/nov/041109a.html )

The same committee also urged Morocco to decriminalize abortion last week. Moreover the UNHRC has a history of promoting abortion and acting as an unofficial implementing agent for the nefarious anti-people and racist International Planned Parenthood.

Some pro-life leaders are encouraging citizens of the countries represented on the UNHRC to engage in local political actions to stop any of these unaccountable nationals from participating in United Nation's attempts to force sovereign nations to accept abortion and gay rights.

Anyone know how United Nations appointments are handled? State Dept? What's the process? i.e. Who appoints them, for how long do they hold office and how can they be removed? Possible starting point...

". . . you [the United Nations] organize brotherly collaboration among peoples. In this way a system of solidarity is set up, so that lofty civilized aims may win the orderly and unanimous support of all the family of peoples for the common good and the good of each individual. This aspect of the United Nations is the most beautiful; it is its most truly human aspect; it is the ideal of which mankind dreams on its pilgrimage through time; it is the world's greatest hope...."

(Paul VI, Speech to the United Nations, October 4, 1965.)

This sort of thing is to be expected from the UN -- but why is our "Bush appointed" rep siding with the pro-abort, pro-gay agenda??? This is outrageous!!!
