NEW YORK — A UNICEF-funded book being passed out at the United Nations
Child Summit encourages children to engage in sexual activities with other
minors and with homosexuals and animals. As the delegations to the summit remain
deadlocked on abortion, international nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) that
support the U.S. delegation's anti-abortion stance circulated copies of pages
from a UNICEF-funded book given to delegates from Latin America that promotes
sexual activity and abortion among teens in their countries. "Reproductive
health includes the following components: Counseling on sexuality, pregnancy,
methods of contraception, abortion, infertility, infections and diseases," says
the Spanish-language book, whose title translates to "Theoretic Elements for
Working with Mothers and Pregnant Teens." An accompanying workshop book produced
by the U.N. Children's Fund (UNICEF) tells Latin American mothers and teens:
"Situations in which you can obtain sexual pleasure: 1. Masturbation. 2. Sexual
relations with a partner — whether heterosexual, homosexual, or bisexual. 3. A
sexual response that is directed toward inanimate objects, animals, minors,
non-consenting persons." The book, which was distributed by the Mexican
government with U.N. funding, suggests lesbian sex as an acceptable alternative
for girls. "Sexual relations with a partner: Here we should insist there is no
ideal or perfect relations between two or several people," the book says. "The
one that gives us the most satisfaction and that which is adopted to our way of
being and the style of life we have chosen. This is why we encounter many
differences among women. Some women like to have relations with men. And others
with another woman." UNICEF spokesman Alfred Ironside acknowledged U.N. funding
for the book, but said it was produced by the Mexican government in 1999 and
pulled from circulation "when the content was more carefully reviewed." Mr.
Ironside said he did not know how many of the books were circulated. "A very
small number were produced — fewer than a thousand," he said. "It was pulled out
of circulation when the content was more carefully reviewed." "That book was a
product of the Mexican government, supported by UNICEF financially as part of
UNICEF's support to the Mexican government," Mr. Ironside said. "We do
everything we do in full agreement with the governments we support. We do not
operate independently," he said. He said the book was "intended as a training
manual for people working with adolescent women to prevent teen pregnancy. That
publication was a compilation of articles by different contributors and has a
very clear disclaimer in the front that the views of the writers do not
necessarily reflect the views of the United Nations." The workshop book is being
passed out by anti-abortion NGOs to persuade delegates from the large Latin
American bloc of countries called the Rio Group to support the U.S. proposal to
remove ambiguous language from the child-summit action document, which has been
used in the past by U.N. agencies to promote abortion. Delegations to the U.N.
Child Summit remained deadlocked yesterday in closed-door negotiations over
abortion and other hot-button issues that have held up final agreement on a U.N.
action agenda to protect the world's children. The U.S. delegation, praised by
pro-family groups for standing firm to ensure the agenda does not sanction
continued U.N. promotion of abortions, was attacked by NGO critics for a second
day at an afternoon briefing, NGO members at the meeting said. Douglas Sylva, an
official with the Catholic Family and Human Rights Institute, called the
briefing "an NGO feeding frenzy," in which the United States was attacked for
its position on the Palestinian-Israeli conflict; arms sales to allies; the Bush
administration's support of capital punishment; and U.S. failure to ratify the
U.N. Convention on the Rights of the Child. "The fact that the United States is
the only country besides Somalia that has not ratified [the] child's rights
[convention] is shocking," said Paula Daeppen, director in Zurich for the
Federation of American Women's Clubs Overseas. "We're supposed to be a moral
leader of the world and child friendly," she said. Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee,
Texas Democrat, told the meeting she applauded the administration's work to
protect children from pornography, exploitation and "child soldiering." But she
said she disagreed with the U.S. delegation on some issues. "There needs to be
flexibility on life," she said — an apparent reference to the administration's
strong anti-abortion stance. A person close to the congresswoman, who asked to
remain anonymous, said her remarks were intended to urge "more flexibility on
family planning." Abortion is not mentioned directly in the draft child-summit
document, but UNICEF, which organized the 187-country special session of the
General Assembly, and the U.N. Fund for Population Activities, interpret the
ambiguous phrase "reproductive health services" to include abortion. A senior
Canadian negotiator told delegates in earlier preparatory meetings that the term
includes abortion, prompting the Bush administration to start pushing for the
alternate term "reproductive health care." European countries, with the
exception of Spain, along with Canada, Japan and New Zealand oppose the U.S.
position. Muslim nations and some African countries also support the United
States. The Rio Group, whose delegations say their predominantly Catholic
populations don't condone abortion, said there is no danger the term
"reproductive health services" will be used to promote abortions in Latin
America.

1. Arab nations truly do not want peace with
Israel. They wish to destroy Israel by all means including a
surprise attack. 2. The Palestinians, Iranians, Syrians and Iraqi's believe that they can push the region into a large war against Israel. Thus these nations shall attack Israel at some point. Right now, Bin Laden has made it be known that there will be no peace until Israel is no more. Israel strongly defeats these armies brought against her and causes a World outcry just like Kosovo and Bosnia. Worse yet, Israel destroys Damascus as prophecised in Isaiah 17 due to the use of chemical weapons against Israeli troops. 3. A World coalition is built-up against Israel. 4. Russia or even China, in an attempt to reassert global influence shall assist Arab nations in a coalition against Israel. 5. Jerusalem is the key issue that will start such a battle. 6. Israel will be victorious through the miraculous assistance of GOD. 7. Finally, a peace treaty will be signed setting up the Temple sacrifice, and ultimately the Anti-Christ. http://www.gogindex.com/ While we were sleeping, the enemy came and sowed
