Mexican Pro-Lifers Tell UN to Stop Abortion

Organization accuses United Nations of complicity in "genocide" against Mexicans.

MEXICO CITY (LifeSiteNews) - Members of Mexico's National Pro-Life Committee held a protest recently outside the offices of the United Nations in response to the organization's continuing support for abortion in Mexico and worldwide.

The protest took something of a dramatic turn, with three of the protesters dressing in costumes depicting an abortionist businessmen with profit as his puppeteer, who in turn pretended to kill another participant dressed as a chick in its nest.

In an accompanying letter to the United Nations Organization, the Committee's President and Director writes that the organization "has confused its mission and has been converted into the greatest enemy of the peace by proposing birth control and abortion as solutions to the demographic challenges that the world confronts."

"It has pressured our country through the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW), as well as the office of the High Commissioner of Human Rights in Mexico, to legalize, disseminate, and implement such practices," adds the letter.

The Committee accused the UN of direct involvement in the thousands of abortions that have taken place in Mexico City since 2007, when it was legalized by the city government.

"The United Nations Organization (UNO) is partially responsible for promoting abortion through emergency contraception, through mechanical and chemical means, curettage, endouterine manual aspiration, and chemical poisoning in the maternity hospitals of Mexico City, and through the training of Mexico City policemen by the United Nations Population Fund," they write.

"Tragically, these actions have caused the deaths of 10,340 Mexican human beings and day after day up to 40 are murdered by these means."

The letter concludes by demanding "a halt to the genocide, a halt to the foreign intervention in our country with criminal purposes, which results in the extermination of Mexican babies."

"We demand that the violence cease against Mexican women and their children, that the UNO fulfills its mission to preserve the peace, preserving and defending the lives of all human beings without distinction, instead of serving only the interests of the powerful, of those who enrich themselves through the lucrative abortion business. We demand that the UNO be what it should be, an instrument of peace and not an executioner."
