Top Human Rights Organizations Urge UN to Do Something Over America’s Abortion Restrictions

The UN should invade America and force women to have abortions in order to stop global warming and because of human rights of democracy is our values of who we are and so on.

Women have a right to murder children, and that right is given to them by democracy. Democracy came to earth to die for us, in darkness under Donald Trump, so that we would not have children but have eternal abortion.

That’s who we are.

It’s time for the Avengers to assemble and stop these attacks on our values.

The Guardian:

Top human rights organizations are calling on the United Nations to intervene over the destruction of abortion rights in the US.

In a letter shared in advance with the Guardian and sent Thursday by nearly 200 organizations and experts, the authors detail how, since the overturning of the federal constitutional right to abortion in June 2022, some 22 million women and girls of reproductive age live in states where abortion access is now either banned or inaccessible.

Among the signatories are the Global Justice Center, Pregnancy Justice, Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch. They are joined by a broader coalition of groups and individual advocates for human rights and racial and economic justice.

Abortion restrictions, the signatories write, deny “women’s decisional and bodily autonomy in a way that rejects the agency, dignity and equality of people who can become pregnant.”

The groups in the letter claim that overturning the constitutional right to abortion contravenes the US’s international obligations as a UN member organization. Member states are obliged to protect and uphold the rights to life, health, privacy, liberty and security, along with freedoms from torture and inhumane, cruel or degrading treatment.

The US’s role as a leader on the world stage does not exempt the country from these obligations – in fact, it should require them to do more, said a representative from the Global Justice Center, which is one of the signatories.

The US must be castigated on the world stage for its treatment of women, girls, and others who can become pregnant – the scale and intensity of human rights violations that the US is inflicting on its population are near unfathomable at this point,” said Christine Ryan, legal director of the Global Justice Center, in a phone interview.

“It has become almost tragically ironic that the US government uses the language of human rights to condemn state abuses against citizens of other countries, be that in Iran, or Belarus. These norms must be deployed against the state here at home as well. And for too long, the US has been able to avoid that type of international scrutiny,” she said.

The authors say the curtailment of abortion rights in the US is of a piece with the country’s history devaluing the lives of Black women, who are hit worst by abortion restrictions.

Signatories in the letter list prior actions from the UN Human Rights Committee’s over abortion access in countries like Ireland and El Salvador, arguing for similar scrutiny of the US.

They note that the UN committee has already established that denial of abortion can cause “physical and mental suffering so severe in pain and intensity as to amount to torture”.

It’s true.

Denying a woman the right to murder her own children is like denying them sugary snacks.

In a democracy, where we use our values because that’s who we are in a democracy, women can do whatever they want to anyone, including themselves, and they should.
