EVERYBODY WANTS TO KILL SOMEBODY:

Amnesty in hot water on abortion (Barney Zwartz, May 28, 2007, The Age)

AMNESTY International is facing upheaval and mass resignations after it decided last month to advocate that abortion be decriminalised worldwide.

Many Christians, especially Catholics, are expected to resign and may establish an alternative human rights organisation.

The Australian Catholic Bishops' Conference is considering its response, but a senior Catholic said yesterday he thought "a parting of the ways" was inevitable. Amnesty estimates that 500 Catholic schools in Australia have member groups, as do other Christian schools.

Amnesty International has fallen into the error of confusing an interest coalition with an idelogical united front.

The Christian members of the human rights interest coalition should not have been expected to soldier on as AI branched out into baby-murder and queer interests.

The error is akin to that of the plutocrats steering the Republican party toward amnesty on immigration.

No amnesty in the womb. It really is the most dangerous place in modern America.

Good title, BTW.

No, they're not, the commies/lefties/ totalitarians are purging the moralists for a complete takeover of the org.

Someone at Rantburg wrote that, it's their M.O.

Plus they get legitimacy from the UN and UN "peacekeepers" rape thousands.
