Prayer request

My view at the UN - bashing Syria at the moment.
There will be a meeting here at the UN from 6 to 8pm tonight, in New York.
It is on the resolution : " Protecting Women Human Rights Defenders".( WHRD)

A legal opinion I was given on this is :

"this formulation of WHRD is not approved or defined, and the thrust of this resolution is to create an absolute legal immunity for those who identify as human rights defenders, even though they primarily are involved in actions, or promotion of activity, that is in violation of national laws and is NOT included under universally recognized human rights. "

Your prayers will be appreciated , so that this resolution will NOT be adopted.

Prayer request

I would like you to pray for a meeting that shall start at 1.15pm today at the UN in New York.

There is a resolution called " Defending women human rights defenders ". Now this may seen quite harmless , but the so called rights these people want to defend are the so called  right to abortion and the so called  right to LGBTQI acts. Please do not ask me to esplain all these " Gay " things.

There are many countries fighting against this resolution chaired by Norway. Please pray that they would turn up as there are 16 resolutions being negotiated today. Pray that they would have the bravery to continue to speak up for life and the family.

I will let you know how it goes.
