When the U.S. government began dropping the hammer on American tobacco companies, these corporations became alarmed that their prospects for long-term survival might be no better than it is for the people who buy their products. Their response was to redirect their marketing efforts toward foreign countries where the governments don't regulate the sale and use of these little white cancer sticks. The plan worked, and today, an enormous percentage of the profits made by "Big Tobacco" are generated by cigarette sales in foreign countries.
Now, another American institution faces a similar situation and embraces the same response.
If all goes as predicted, Mexico will soon legalize abortion and become a full-fledged participant in the most prolific holocaust the world has ever known. To bring this about, the Mexican abortion lobby has regurgitated the same collection of lies and distortions that their American counterparts have used over the last 40 years or so. They clearly operate on the assumption that Mexican politicians are as stupid, corrupt, immoral and cowardly as American politicians, and the results show that the assumption is not unjustified.
Interestingly, pro-life forces in Mexico are complaining that a major reason why they are losing is because American pro-abortion groups are on the ground there working around the clock to get abortion legalized. They say there is also a significant amount of money flowing from the U.S. into this political effort.
The question is: why? After all, "Big Abortion" is sending out fund-raising letters all across America warning their followers that Roe v. Wade is about to fall and that the end of legalized abortion in America may be on the horizon. If that is true, shouldn't these organizations be concentrating their efforts at home rather than pouring valuable resources into another country?
Or perhaps there is another dynamic at work here.
I have fought the American abortion lobby for many years, and if there is one thing I have learned about these people it is that everything they do is driven by self-interest. If you don't know anything else about the abortion battle now raging in Mexico, know this: The only reason the American choice mafia is there is because they have concluded that there is something in it for them. Fortunately, it is not that hard to figure out what that something is.
Ten years ago, when Bill Clinton was in office and the "right to choose" looked safe, Canada and Mexico were not on the abortion lobby's radar screen. But now they see this "right" being threatened and a back-up plan has been launched.
I have long predicted that when America returns legal protection to the unborn, the American abortion industry intends to set up a network of abortion clinics along the borders just inside Canada and Mexico. Of course, Canada poses no threat to this plan since, as improbable as it may seem, the Canadian government is actually more godless and morally bankrupt than the U.S. government. That means the only obstacle has been the fact that abortion is illegal in Mexico.
That is what this battle is about. Mexico is the missing ingredient in the American abortion industry's contingency plan. The fact is the Mexican government is being played for a fool. The legislation they are about to enact will not only result in the wholesale slaughter of Mexican children by the millions, but it will turn Mexico into a dumping ground for the moral decay that is already rotting the United States.
To appreciate the level of hypocrisy being displayed here, all you have to do is reverse the roles. Let's say that 35 years ago Mexico had legalized abortion while America continued to legally protect its children. Let's also say that Mexico is now poised to reverse itself and shut down its death camps. If that was the situation, and the Mexican abortion lobby came into the United States and tried to use its political muscle to legalize abortion, would there be one person anywhere in the world so stupid they could not see what was going on? Also, is there any doubt that the American people would be outraged at this outside interference in our political process? (In case you haven't guessed, the answer to both questions is a resounding "No!")
So while America would never tolerate this sort of intrusion against us, American death merchants are going into Mexico to do that very thing. You can bet the family farm that if Mexican pro-life groups tried to come into the United States and influence our current legislative effort to outlaw abortion, the American pro-choice groups now in Mexico trying to influence their political process would be the loudest screamers. They would be the ones on the evening news every night with beet-red faces and bulging veins bellowing that the United States doesn't need advice from Mexicans about how to run our affairs.
One of the great ironies here is that Mexico has always prided itself on having abolished slavery many years before the United States. They will also point out that they did not need a bloody civil war to right this wrong.
But today, whatever moral superiority Mexico might legitimately claim over that issue is being flushed down the toilet. The American abortion lobby is manipulating the Mexican political process to turn this once proud nation into the abortion capital of the Western Hemisphere. And once that happens, they will pour millions into the pockets of Mexican politicians to see that it never changes. The inevitable result will be that the United States will be able to sit back and show the world that we are too good to tolerate the evil of abortion, while a steady stream of American women pour into Mexico's death camps.
It's called naked exploitation, and it is the mother's milk of pro-choice politics.
This makes perfect sense!

When the Europeans first arrived, these guys had mass murder running night and day at the tops of their temples.
But the chances that the reversal of Roe v. Wade will end or even significantly limit abortion in the USA are zero.
However, when Roe is reversed, a lot of public funding for abortion will disappear and prices will rise. States that allow abortion will be pressured to limit it to legal residents. This is where Mexico will come into play.
Our Lady of Guadalupe, intercede for Mexico and for her people.
Like it or not, if it goes back to the states, I would imagine that NY, California, and several other populous states will adopt abortion-on-demand state laws.
“But the chances that the reversal of Roe v. Wade will end or even significantly limit abortion in the USA are zero.”
I think you’re being overly pessimistic. Every year, the number of abortions falls to its lowest point since they were being recorded, and that’s expected to continue this year. Also, the number of women having their first abortions has fallen even more dramatically. About half of all women who get abortions now have had them before. Younger generations are more sympathetic to pro-life views than previously.
All of it true.
None of it the result of legislation, or, more broadly, politics.
In a very ironic way, politics contributed to it. Bill Clinton was the most pro-abort President in history, and the backlash against him from 1993-95 helped make some people more open to pro-life ideas.
Of course, the main cause is the ultra-sound, which has disproven many previously held asumption about when life begins. Clearly, it begins earlier than most people had imagined.
Yeah, and a thousand year before THAT, when the gospel arrived to Northern Europeans, we were happily murdering each other while we ate raw meat. You might say we returned to our savage roots first, huh?
People who are so fixated on their fear of Latinos here in the USA (due to the admittedly horrid mess we have with the border) that they have to turn everything into some excuse to denigrate hispanics used to really make me angry. Now I just laugh at their phenomenal stupidity.
Even with that bleak picture, there is not a chance in hell (indeed!) that abortion is about to become legal in all of Mexico. It will be restricted to the DF. Of course, it has always been possible to buy a medical person to do the deed in Tijuana or Matamores, and that will not change unless the gospel permeates Mexican culture (we could pray for a dose of that here, as well).
This article is like many out of WND. Sloppily researched, poorly presented, halfway true, alarmist, and agenda driven. Joseph Farah is an embarrassment to socially active evangelicals.
My surname is much more Latino than your surname.
Chalk up the points in the appropriate column, I guess.
Tally marks posted.
Is there any right to life groups in Mexico?
