Ban Ki-Moon Gives Iran An 'Undeserved Gift' With Decision To Travel To Tehran Summit 

  

The Anti-Defamation League says that decisions made by United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon to address the Non-Alignment Movement summit in Tehran represents an “undeserved gift” that could give an Iranian regime belligerence on the nuclear issue and escalating anti-Israel, anti-American, and anti-Semitic rhetoric and incitement.

“Talk about bad timing,” says Abraham H. Foxman, National Director of The ADL. “The Secretary General's decision to travel to Iran,” he continues, “sends the wrong signal at the wrong time. It will be viewed by many in the international community as undermining the effort to prevent the terrorist regime from developing nuclear weapons. Mr. Ban's decision is an undeserved gift to Iran that could have the unintended consequence of rewarding the regime for their belligerence on the nuclear issue and repeated threats to harm Israel and Jews around the world.”

Mr. Foxman adds that, “Mr. Ban's planned trip further undermines the intensive efforts by the United States and the P5+1 to make it clear to Iran that there are severe consequences for its ongoing nuclear weapons program, including economic and diplomatic isolation.”

The ADL had previously urged the Secretary General to decline the invitation, saying, 'Your presence in the Iranian capital at this time will be counterproductive to the efforts of the international community to bring Iran into compliance with its obligations under the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons and abandon its nuclear weapons ambitions.'

COMMENT: The agenda calls for better diplomacy on behalf of Zionism's centre-right patriarchal moral. No such things as a Non-Aligment Movement exists in politic-rhetoric! Belligerent comes across as the sine-qua-non of the economic overstatement; states going over-the-top! Mutual inequality? Diversity: the International community. Does Mssr. Foxman's over-indulgent statement do the work of the Iranian belligerent, on their behalf? The P5+1 does not include Iran as part of a Rothschild controlled economic state. The other main countries not controlled by the IMF & World Bank-- the Rothschilds-- include Cuba and North Korea. How do we bankrupt another?

“Every Woman, Every Child”: New UN Strategy Amied At Improving Health Care For Women and Children.

The health of hundreds of millions of women and children looks set to improve thanks to the launch of a Global Strategy by The United Nations billed as “Every Woman, Every Child.”

In his New York address on Wednesday United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon placed an emphasis on the initiative making childbirth safer. The benefits of the advances that made childbirth safe almost one hundred years ago have yet to reach women in many parts of the world. In some countries one woman in eight dies during childbirth and millions of children die from malnutrition and diseases that have been preventable for decades.

“These realities are simply unacceptable. The twenty-first century must be and will be different. It is time to turn the tide, time to right a historic wrong, time to deliver on the promise of health and a better future, for every woman, every child,” he said.

Through the expansion of access to basic health care, simple blood tests, doctor's advice, immunizations, and the presence of trained birth attendants the inequalities affecting women and children can be addressed.

The Global Strategy for Women's and Children's Health provides a clear road map for making the fundamental difference in millions of lives. “Our strategy includes women’s empowerment,” he said, “Women must lead the way, because by empowering women we empower societies.”

Not satisfied with a piecemeal approach he calls for a broad partnership between governments, international organizations, business, researchers, philanthropists, health professionals and the civil society. “We all have a role to play and we must provide the resources.”

The investment in women's and children's health has a multiplier effect across the Millennium Development Goals (the Global Action Plan to reduce poverty) and the UN leader believes that this shall be “the most powerful investment for developing our economies, our communities and our societies.”
