Amnesty backs UN’s pro-abortion treaty

AMNESTY International’s denial that it is pro–abortion is misleading.

I’m a member of Amnesty and there’s no doubt it does a great deal of excellent work. However, some recent trends within the organisation are giving me great cause for concern.

A clear indication of Amnesty’s real position on abortion can be gauged from its unequivocal support for CEDAW — the UN Convention on the Elimination ofDiscrimination Against Women.
