Actor Liam Neeson, known for his roles in popular action flicks, has recorded a new ad for Amnesty International which calls on Ireland to legalize abortion. The European nation is staunchly pro-life and prohibits killing babies in abortions in virtually every circumstance.
Amnesty International is helping lead a pro-abortion push to repeal the 8th Amendment in Ireland, which has provided legal protection for unborn babies for years. Amnesty International Ireland recruited Neeson, an Irish actor, to do a voice-over for its commercial, which appears below.
In the ad, Neeson essentially says laws protecting babies from abortions are antiquated and should be repealed because human rights for unborn children is apparently an outdated notion. Neeson doesn’t appear in the ad, but his unmistakable voice is clearly heard as the narrator of it.
Neeson says: “A ghost haunts Ireland. A cruel ghost of the last century… It blindly brings suffering, even death, to the women whose lives it touches. Feared by politicians, this is a ghost of paper and ink… A constitution written for a different time. It is the shadow of the country we’d left behind… Ireland doesn’t have to be chained to its past. It’s time to lay this ghost of rest.”
Matthew Archbold of the National Catholic register heard the ad and is very disappointed by Neeson’s participation in it.
To be fair, the ad was a lot more watchable than Neeson’s Taken 3. I hope this effort bombs as badly as that movie did.
Make no mistake, the forces of secularization and abortion know who their enemy is, it is the one institution that stands for a radical commitment to love and the sacredness of human life. Europe was built on the back of the Church, I shudder to consider its future once it has eschewed Christianity. It is a sad culture that attempts to demonize an institution that preaches love at every turn and begs people to treat others as they would wish to be treated. I understand they want to turn their backs on the Church and march away. But the real question is, what are they marching towards?
Just watched Taken 3 BTW. It sucked embarrassingly.
How come all these liberal pro-abortion Catholics are excommunicated?
The movie RED EYE, i think it was called was about a SON OF A 9/11 DEAD FATHER trying to cause a terrorist act aided by a MARINE!!
and everyone thought the movie was so great because they are SHEEP!!!!
##### Liam!!! after that!!!
my sister who is hardcore conservative said it was great.
i told her what the plot was and she was shocked!!!
gave 20 dollars to this garbage.
BTW, muslim doctor was good guy!!!!
thsi is what we are up against!!!!
Euro-friggin-trash.
He hasn't make a movie I would watch, anyway.
Maybe his late wife
I stopped watching Liam Neeson's movies after he came out for gun control.
He can go back to Ireland now. We don't need him here.
No Amnesty for the unborn. What ghouls.
Never seen Schindler’s List?
Never understood his popularity, but that was before I found out he was a drooling leftist. Hollywood takes care of their own.
What else would anyone expect from a jerk who would agree to play the part of Kinsey who sexually abused babies?

Government funded I presume.
He’s despicable.
Are there enough “minorities and other human weeds” in Ireland for Planned Parenthood to set up their extermination facilities there?
Gonna delete Taken 1 & 2 from my dvr. No need to waste memory on a baby killer
Why not call on Saudi Arabia to stop punishing women for dress and driving?
This is why Darth Maul ran him through with that wicked double ended light sabre.
He was talking about converting to moHAMmadism. Wonder if he made the leap yet.
Shouldn’t the headline be something like:
Liam Neeson demands the right to Kill Babies for Profit!
No more Liam Neeson movies for me. Same with Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, George Clooney, and Sean Penn. These hypocrites fire off hundreds of rounds in one movie and tell us how evil guns are and stand for everything else evil. I hope they’re given the pink slip and replaced by illegal immigrant leading men. It would serve them right. They can die penniless for all I care.
