President Obama and Planned Parenthood Will Promote Abortion at Summit of the Americas

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- President Barack Obama and Planned Parenthood are expected to join forces to promote abortion at the fifth Summit of the Americas that begins in Trinidad tomorrow. The event is a chance for the leaders of the 35 members of the Organization of American States to gather, but it could be marked by a debate over abortion.

President Obama will speak during Friday's opening ceremonies and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will also be in attendance. While they will garner top headlines, a fight between pro-life advocates and the Planned Parenthood abortion business will take place below the surface. . .

Irish Protestors Shut Down Speech by "Involuntary Euthanasia" Activist

CORK, Ireland April 17, 2009 (LifeSiteNews.com) - When a British professor of medical ethics was slated to speak at Cork University Hospital (CUH) in Ireland advocating legalising euthanasia, including "involuntary euthanasia," he did not expect to be met with an angry group of Irish patriots determined to see him off in the name of their nation's constitution.

Professor Len Doyal, emeritus professor of medical ethics at Queen Mary, University of London, is a euthanasia advocate and has said that "involuntary euthanasia" should be permitted. He has advocated changing British law to allow doctors in some cases to end patients' lives "swiftly, humanely and without guilt," even if they have not given consent. However, Irish law currently defines the taking of another person's life without their consent as "murder," as do most, if not all, other jurisdictions in the world.

Doyal was scheduled to speak at the hospital at the invitation of the CUH Ethics Forum, but the lecture was pre-empted when angry protesters filled the room and charged him with attempting to introduce Nazi-style eugenics and to undermine Irish law and constitutional protections. The protest occurred only after numerous complaints to the hospital were ignored.

The lecture hall was filled with protesters who shouted down Doyal until the lecture was called off. A number of protesters, including priests and students from the pro-life action group Youth Defense, accused Doyal of advocating death for helpless ill, elderly and disabled people.

One man, Kieran O'Riordan, approached Doyal on the platform and said that he is currently caring for his wife who has terminal cancer. He held a copy of the constitution of the Republic of Ireland, the preamble of which protects the right to life, and denounced Doyal's speech as a criminal offense and against the law.

Fr. Paul Kramer, a Catholic priest and author, confronted Doyal, shouting, "Nazi criminal! Get out of our country! Nazi eugenicist! Get out of our country!" He turned to the crowd of about 200 and announced, "We say no to Nazi eugenics." The crowd chanted "Out! Out! Out!"

At that point, Professor Doyal was escorted from the room and the lecture was cancelled. . .
