African officials repudiate United Nations stealth homosexual clause
SOMEONE HAS TO SAY THE TRUTH...
By Marielena Montesino de Stuart
The imposition of public policies protecting and promoting homosexuality continues to experience setbacks around the world. Africa is the latest example.
“There is something about the intimacy between a man and a woman in the traditional marriage that has deeper fundamental intuitive significance that defies measurement by an opinion poll. It sounds like a cliche, but it is the deeper intuitive biology of the man and the woman and their collective persona together in the best and worst of times in human history going back to before biblical times, that has kept human beings literally both reproducing and recreating strong social communities with that soulful ambience that I saw in my parents when I was growing up. “–Mwizenge S. Tembo , PhD. (Dr. Tembo is a native of Zambia and teaches at Bridgewater College, Virginia). See reference section at the end of this article.

The United Nations: Rogue, Aggressive and Meddlesome
The United Nations never ceases to show how duplicitous it is, particularly when it involves moral issues. Yet, American taxpayers continue to have money siphoned from their wallets by the U.S. government, in order to fund this deceitful institution, which acts as a safe harbor for so many thugs and criminals around the world.
The latest display of the UN’s rogue, aggressive and meddlesome policies, came in the form of the “United Nations Regional Conference on Population and Development Beyond 2014,” held in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, from Sep.30 to Oct.4, under the alleged purpose of reaffirming the Universal Declaration on Human Rights. The real purpose was the establishment of public policies to promote and protect homosexuality and abortion– through teams of “experts” who travel throughout Africa with their pernicious agenda.
The African continent has been a prime target of the United Nations Sustainable Development (Agenda 21) operatives– who work to establish anti-life and anti-traditional family programs, under the pretext of human rights, environmental sustainability and economic development. Agenda 21 is undermining the sovereignty of African nations– with the objective of placing the African continent under regional governance; in other words, a centralized African government which will control all political and religious activities. Agenda 21 is nothing but socialism for the 21st century.

The Addis Ababa conference almost came to a screeching halt, when 17 African delegates vehemently rejected a stealth clause aimed to protect homosexuality as a public policy in Africa, under the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
The United Nations is hiding the truth from the general public
When you read the conference report issued by the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa, dated October 5, 2013, you will note that it is very vague in its description of the African delegates’ rejection of the stealth homosexuality clause.
Homosexuality is never mentioned in the United Nations report.
In fact, a search conducted on October 17, of the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa website (UNECA.ORG) did not return any instances of the words “homosexual,” “homosexuality,” “gay,” “LGBTQ,” or “LGBTI” in their documentation and announcements. This is the stealth and unscrupulous way in which the United Nations and its homosexual affiliates operate in Africa– in order to undermine African culture and traditions.
The hypocritical UN Economic Commission for Africa report describes the African delegates’ rejection as “normal in such kind of negotiations” and “with controversy emerging on the phrase, ‘without distinction of any kind’ because of its elastic interpretation to meanings that might be unacceptable in Africa for various reasons. ”
The Zambia Daily Mail offers more details as to what really happened (excerpt):
“They [the African delegates] argued that since they were representing the sovereign interests of their countries, they would not adopt a declaration which covertly promotes homosexual rights which are in conflict with their countries’ cultural values. The concern of the majority delegates was that the clause was promoting homosexual rights in a subtle way.
“It must be put on record that Chad is not party to this declaration. It is a subtle way of introducing something which may catch some countries unawares,” a Chadian delegate said.
Another delegate from Congo-Brazzaville argued against adopting the declaration with the controversial clause, holding that in future, some countries may be asked to adopt their laws to ‘the spirit of this declaration.’
Other delegates argued that there were undertones in the clause which could be promoting homosexual rights. “This clause is elastic. Basically what we are talking about is homosexuality and lesbianism,” argued a delegate from Eritrea.”
Why does the United Nations resort to deceitful maneuvers in order to insert these stealth homosexual clauses in public policy documents, that affect so many African nations?
Let’s examine why.
Homosexuality is considered an abomination in African culture
Dorothy Kweyu is an editor at the Daily Nation in Kenya. She held nothing back during Barack Obama’s visit this past summer. Her editorial titled “Let Obama take his Gay agenda elsewhere” is calling loudly for your attention:
Excerpt:
“The US Government’s massive funding of gays and lesbians is an affront to African culture, which, notwithstanding the nihilistic modernistic tendencies that are tearing it apart, is essentially pro-life and pro-family.“— From an editorial by Dorothy Kweyu, Daily Nation, Kenya.
The protection and promotion of homosexuality as a public policy is morally and economically harmful
The continent of Africa has seen its share of communist infiltration and civil wars. The African people do not need more governmental rules that restrict peaceful religious and cultural beliefs. In addition, nothing could be worse for the private economic sector of these poor African nations, than unfair and unnecessary laws regarding “social issues ” — which are considered immoral in their culture.
It’s enough that African nations have been infiltrated by an army of international depopulation activists, who are promoting eugenics through the abortion of African babies– instead of promoting stable national economies that protect African children and respect their human rights under God’s Natural Law– which binds all men, for all times and in all circumstances.
If Africans want to know what it is like to live under pro-homosexual public policies, all they need to do is to look at the United States.
On the economic front, in the United States alone we have seen a growing list of businesses that have been threatened legally– and even violently– for refusing to provide services, such as photography, preparation of wedding cakes and flower arrangements, for homosexual “weddings”. (See reference section).
Small businesses do not have the money and lawyers to fight back against this bullying– and the pro-homosexual mainstream media is only interested in silencing their voices– or making them appear as odd renegades in this “tolerant” society of ours. However, the determination of these small businesses, in spite of limited resources, has been a great inspiration to those who stand by their moral principles.
And of course, the American taxpayer continues to carry the burden of the U.S. government’s ongoing colossal funding of pro-homosexual policies– aimed at dominating just about every aspect of our lives, from education to private business practices. Here are two examples of how American taxpayers are funding homosexual public policies through government “studies”:
(WARNING – Offensive content): Example One. Example Two.
Is this the nightmare that awaits the long-suffering people of Africa, morally and economically?
Who will defend the human rights of those who peacefully reject homosexuality, based on their religious and cultural beliefs?
The African officials’ rejection of homosexuality, together with millions of people around the world, should serve as an admonition that there is a powerful and vibrant international movement that will not tolerate stealth, intrusive and intimidating practices by the homosexual collective.

Cuba, Trade and Castro’s “New Man”
CUBA, TRADE and CASTRO’S “NEW MAN”
By Marielena Montesino de Stuart
More rapprochement…
The Conference of Cuban Catholic Bishops continues to march to the beat of socialist ideals, with their latest pastoral letter, titled “LA ESPERANZA NO DEFRAUDA” (“Nor does this hope delude us” / spes autem non confundit)– taken from Romans 5,5.
On June 3, 2013 I published an article titled “Cuba’s Cardinal Jaime Ortega Must Resign”denouncing Cardinal Jaime Ortega’s brazen socialist propaganda in the Archdiocese of Havana. Having lived under communism in Cuba, I asked that Cardinal Ortega step down.
While my request for Cardinal Ortega’s resignation may appear to be symbolic, my article containing this request has circled the globe and has received the enthusiastic support of Cubans exiled in Europe and in the United States. This is another reaffirmation that Roman Catholic Cubans, as well as non-Catholic Cubans, have had enough with the modernist Vatican and their socialist “dialogue” with the enemy.
The latest socialist appeasement message from the Cuban Bishops comes in the form of a pastoral letter, which does not contain a single mention of the words “Communism” or “Communist.” Instead, the emphasis is on “dialogue” – following the modernist (socialist) Vatican rules of rapprochement.
This “dialogue” also came in the form of Benedict XVI’s refusal to meet with dissidents during his visit to Cuba, in 2012. No amount of excuses from Vatican officials can make the world forget such a betrayal.
In the interest of time, I have focused on key excerpts from this pastoral letter signed by the Cuban Bishops, with my translations of specific sections that need to be vigorously denounced. I have added bold to the original Spanish, to reference the translated sections:
EXCERPT FROM PARAGRAPH 31 – CUBAN BISHOPS: “Como ha venido ocurriendo en el aspecto económico, creemos imprescindible en nuestra realidad cubana una actualización o puesta al día de la legislación nacional en el orden político.”
Translation of excerpt from paragraph 31. “As has been taking place in the economic arena, we believe it is essential in our Cuban reality to upgrade or update the national political legislation.”
MY COMMENT: What aspect of communism is there to “upgrade” or “update”?
What are the Cuban Bishops afraid of? Why can’t they forcefully denounce communism and publicly encourage the immediate dismantling of the Communist dictatorship— which has brought nothing but misery to the Cuban people, a misery which has been exported by Cuban political emissaries– and blessed by liberal Catholic theologians throughout the world.
EXCERPT FROM PARAGRAPH 35- CUBAN BISHOPS: “En los últimos años también ha habido grandes transformaciones en otras naciones, de modo particular en nuestra región latinoamericana. En un mundo cada vez más globalizado e interdependiente, las necesarias reformas internas, tanto políticas como económicas, pueden ayudar a insertarnos de manera más dinámica y segura en el contexto internacional.
Translation of excerpt from paragraph 35- CUBAN BISHOPS: “In the last few years great transformations have also taken place in other nations, particularly in our Latin American region. In a world which is more and more globalized and interdependent, the necessary internal reforms, both political and economic, can help us to insert ourselves in international affairs, in a more dynamic and secure way.”
MY COMMENT: The Cuban Bishops seem to forget that Cuba has been participating and inserting itself in international affairs, through its membership in the United Nations—an evil entity which has unashamedly supported the bloody Castro Communist regime for nearly 54 years, while helping promote communism throughout the world. The “globalized” and “interdependent” approach mentioned by the Cuban Bishops is nothing but Agenda 21, which is devastating Latin America, Spain and every country it touches. Agenda 21 is the infamous socialist initiative, also known as Sustainable Development, which promotes depopulation (abortion on demand), controls the production and distribution of food– and violates property rights—all under the pretext of environmental stewardship. In other words, international socialism.
Instead, the Cuban Bishops should assert that the basis for all public policies should not rest on ambiguous catch phrases or socialist ideology, but rather on the Commandments of God and on the Natural Law — which binds all men, for all time and in all circumstances.
The Cuban Bishops also cite John Paul II’s visit to Cuba and his concern for “social, economic and cultural development.” What the Cuban Bishops seem to forget is that John Paul II, after vigorously negotiating the freedom of the Polish people from communism, proceeded to pat Fidel Castro on the back, praising his socialized health care and education. The double standards, under John Paul II, are legendary.
THE U.S. GETS THE BLAME, AGAIN…
EXCERPT FROM PARAGRAPH 36 – CUBAN BISHOPS: “En este contexto de política internacional se hace necesario considerar las relaciones de Cuba con los Estados Unidos, que durante largas décadas, de diverso modo y de manera constante y profunda, han afectado la vida de nuestro pueblo. A esto se refirió el beato Juan Pablo II al decir que “el aislamiento provocado repercute de manera indiscriminada en la población, acrecentando las dificultades de los más débiles en aspectos básicos como la alimentación, la sanidad o la educación”14. Y concluyó pidiendo se suprimieran “las medidas impuestas desde fuera del país injustas y éticamente inaceptables.”
Translation of excerpt from paragraph 36: “In this context of international politics it is necessary to consider the relations between Cuba and the United States, which during many decades, in different ways and in a constant and profound manner, have affected the life of our people. The Servant of God, John Paul II, referred to this by saying that “the provoked isolation has indiscriminate repercussions on the population, increasing the difficulties of the weakest, in terms of basic needs like food, health or education.” He [John Paul II] concluded by asking that “the measures imposed from outside the country which are unjust and ethically unacceptable, be removed.”
MY COMMENT: The Cuban Embargo has turned into a mere symbolic message of opposition to the Communist dictatorship in Cuba. Cuba has been open to the world for decades under the Castro regime, because its military rulers need money to control the island prison, while lining their pockets. The world visits Cuba every day, in the form of tourism (including sexual tourism) as well as through “cultural” and economic exchange. As I write this commentary, a PBS station is aggressively promoting a trip to Cuba, at the price of nearly $4,000 per person, leaving from Florida. President Obama has enthusiastically relaxed travel restrictions, making Cuba accessible from various U.S. airports. All this, while political dissidents are tortured in Cuban prisons—and the graveyards of those who have been executed by Castro’s regime, remain an uncomfortable topic of discussion for those promoting “dialogue.” Cubans exiled in the United States and in different parts of the world support a parallel Cuban economy through remittances to relatives in Cuba, with estimates as high as one billion dollars per year.
Despite the “embargo” and financial restrictions, U.S. exports to Cuba reached $711 million in 2008 before declining in 2009 and 2010. Cuba has become the 12th largest market in the Western Hemisphere for U.S. agricultural products.
The U.S. Dollar value of U.S. exports to Cuba in 2012 was $457,318,357.00 under the Trade Sanctions Reform and Export Enhancement Act (TSRA) of 2000, which re-authorized the direct commercial (on a cash basis) export of food products (including branded food products) and agricultural products (commodities) from the United States to Cuba. This does not include healthcare products, which remain authorized by the Cuban Democracy Act (CDA) of 1992.
After the TSRA was set in motion, the United States became Cuba’s fourth largest trading partner behind Venezuela, China, and Spain. While product types may vary, the United States is Cuba’s largest supplier of imported food during most years.
Based on the above facts, the only “unjust and ethically unacceptable” policies that keep the people of Cuba in misery, are those that have been imposed by Castro’s bloody Communist regime, for nearly 54 years.
EXCERPT FROM PARAGRAPH 37 – CUBAN BISHOPS: “…un intercambio comercial justo y orientado al beneficio de todos.”
Translation of excerpt from paragraph 37: “…a just economic exchange aimed at benefitting everyone.”
MY COMMENT: It is preposterous for the Cuban Bishops to assume that the Castro regime has any desire to be “just” or “beneficial” to the U.S.—as in the U.S. one-sided relationship with China, where China wins and we lose.
THIS ONE TAKES THE CAKE…
EXCERPT FROM PARAGRAPH 39 – CUBAN BISHOPS: “Es significativo el llamado que han hecho las autoridades del país acerca del creciente deterioro en las manifestaciones de conducta y en la moralidad pública. Ante esto consideramos que no son suficientes las medidas de exigencia y de disciplina, sino que se hace apremiante un proceso educativo que favorezca, en todos los cubanos, el deseo de ser buenos y la práctica de la virtud. A tal fin deben contribuir, conjuntamente, la familia, la escuela, los medios de comunicación y las instituciones religiosas teniendo a los niños y a los jóvenes como los primeros destinatarios de una formación integral.”
Translation of excerpt from paragraph 39: “It is noteworthy that the country’s authorities have denounced the growing deterioration of conduct and public morals. In light of this, we consider that the measures involving requirements and discipline are not enough. Instead, it is critical that an educational process be implemented to instill in Cubans a desire to be good and virtuous. To this end, it is necessary to have the joint contribution of the family, schools, media / means of communication and religious institutions, with children and youth as the first recipients of comprehensive training.”
MY COMMENT: These young Cubans who are now being punished for not having good moral values and for not being virtuous, are the result of Fidel Castro’s promise of a “new man” (hombre nuevo) formed under principles of “social justice” in an atheist state. So after 54 years of Communist indoctrination, vicious and uninterrupted persecution of Christian values—and removal of God as the basis of moral education — the Cuban Bishops are now entrusting the Cuban government with the reeducation of Cubans, so that they can be turned into good and virtuous people.
Note that “measures involving requirements and discipline are not enough.” And the Cuban Bishops want everyone to cooperate—including “media / means of communication.” What “media / means of communication” are these? The only media / means of communication in Cuba are strictly controlled and censored by the Communist government. So the Cuban Bishops are asking the people of Cuba to turn themselves in—and allow their captors to reeducate them. What reeducation camps are the Cuban Bishops suggesting? What cruel and evil proposition is this?
Final thoughts
There is a clear and constant message coming out of the Vatican, which has intensified even more since “Pope” Francis’s election– which is that socialism is good. None other than the Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Archbishop Gerhard Ludwig Müller, is forcefully promoting Liberation Theology, a dangerous Marxist movement in the Catholic Church, which is being reintroduced, dusted off and given a new coat of varnish.
The socialists (impostors) who infiltrated the Vatican have been hard at work for many, many decades– and they are finally seeing the fruits of their labor, across the globe.

This is also a lesson for the POLITICIANS and FELLOW TRAVELERS who support the pernicious falsehood of exceptions, which allows the innocent unborn to be killed or left to die:
