Forced Abortion Opponent Reportedly Safe at U.S. Embassy

An interesting story from http://www.lifenews.com/ about a Chinese abortion opponent. This follows this post about the GOP Vice Presidential selection. For more that you can do to get involved click HERE and you can also get a very interesting book HERE!

Forced Abortion Opponent Reportedly Safe at U.S. Embassy


Forced abortion opponent Chen Guangcheng, a blind attorney, escaped house arrest — where brutal family planning officials had confined him for years after he exposed a massive campaign of forced abortions and sterilizations.



Since the daring rescue that apparently has allowed him to escape to the U.S. Embassy in Beijing, news on Chen’s status and location have been hard to come by today.



The rescue comes ahead of a visit to China next week by U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner and the fact that Chen is currently at the Embassy could make the visit more tenuous or it could provide political cover for the United States to provide him asylum or other diplomatic assistance. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/04/27/forced-abortion-opponent-reportedly-safe-at-u-s-embassy/
