Yesterday, the president gave a powerful speech on fighting what is wrong with the world especially when it hurts, maims, or kills the most innocent.
"When dictators commit atrocities, they depend upon the world to look the other way until those horrifying pictures fade from memory. But these things happened. The facts cannot be denied."
It seems rather a contradiction that while the president bemoans, and so he should, the meaningless deaths in Syria, the plight of the unborn everywhere is ignored and the world has for decades looked the other way "until those horrifying pictures fade from memory". In his own words, obama stated that "The facts cannot be denied." He was referring to the gas deaths in Syria that killed over 400 children. Does he realize that his support of abortion has caused the death of millions of children and in equally horrible ways?
It is sadly interesting that while the atrocities in Syria need and should have the attention of the international community, the ongoing horrors of abortion continue minute by minute and are not considered a violation of any law except that of God’s . . . but so many gloss over God’s involvement in any part of their life where it might be inconvenient.
Perhaps, while dealing with the events in Syria, we should also include the waste of humanity on a daily basis here in America and many other parts of the world. And, untoward death to children is a ‘danger to our security’ as we blatantly allow the demise of our future in many ways.
" . . . "I ask you to reconcile your belief in freedom and dignity for all people with those images of children writhing in pain and going still on a cold hospital floor, for sometimes resolutions and statements of condemnation are simply not enough." Does the president actually know what an abortion entails? Does he realize sensitive unborn infants are burned, stabbed, and torn apart also while ‘writhing in pain’. While he purports to mourn the few that died in Syria and they should be mourned and future actions stopped to prevent a reoccurrence, why doesn’t he ever stand by the children that represent our future?
"Terrible things happen across the globe, and it is beyond our means to right every wrong. But when, with modest effort and risk, we can stop children from being gassed to death and thereby make our own children safer over the long run, I believe we should act. That's what makes America different. That's what makes us exceptional."
Yes, terrible things happen every day but currently America is rather particular about who gets attention and saved and who is ignored. Besides his ardent support of abortion, he has initiated laws that are against Christians. In many ways, our freedom of religion is being tampered with in order to command a world of tolerance according to government views. We could go on with lists of where we have to toe a line that is not totally in line with how our country was founded. It just hit me as rather awkward that the president would use the death of innocent children to make his point when he is in favor of so many unborn citizens being tragically disposed of every day. Yes, something needs to be done about countries that use poison gasses to arbitrarily murder their citizens. Too bad this attitude doesn’t apply to all.
