FORMER UNITED NATIONS HEAD NOW WORKING FOR PRO-ABORTION GROUP
NEW YORK, Feb 13, 2001 (LSN.ca) - The charade is over for Dr. Nafis Sadik, the former Executive Director of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA). The UN organization under Ms. Sadik always protested that it is not pro-abortion, despite the extensive evidence that it is one of the most powerful and prominent abortion-pushing agencies in the world. With Sadik's leadership term at an end she was free to devote herself more candidly to pro-abortion activism.
On February 6 it was announced that Sadik has joined the Board of Directors for the Center for Reproductive Law and Policy (CRLP). The CRLP, the legal arm of the pro-abortion movement in the U.S., has launched lawsuits for every imaginable pro-abortion cause and only yesterday announced the first lawsuit against Michigan for its law to restrict the use of RU-486 abortions.
"As women, we must be courageous in speaking out on the issues that concern us: we must not bend under the weight of spurious arguments invoking cultural or traditional values," said Sadik in the CRLP release announcing her involvement.
