LifeSiteNews.com reported on April 8, 2010:
Last week in New York, Janet Benshoof, a panelist at an event commemorating the 30th anniversary of the Convention for the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW), declared CEDAW to be “radical international law,” which should be thought of “as a tool for power.”
Benshoof, who is currently President of the Global Justice Center, founded the pro-abortion Center for Reproductive Law and Policy (since renamed the Center for Reproductive Rights). She stated that were the United States (US) to ratify CEDAW, it would bring about a “radical transformation of American law,” which would include overturning any abortion restrictions in domestic laws or those covering foreign activities. Further, Benshoof asserted that CEDAW doesn’t allow for any defense based on custom or religion, and that it applies to all private conduct.
Noting that there are now over 400 court decisions worldwide that have cited CEDAW, Benshoof was highly critical of Democratic Senators, the American Bar Association, Amnesty International, and other groups that have described CEDAW as being “abortion neutral.” She described the current legislation on CEDAW being considered in the US Senate, with its eleven reservations, understandings, and declarations (RUDs), as a “twisted sister” version that was not worth passing.
The panel discussion was hosted by the New York University School of Law and sponsored by the New York State Bar Association. Other panelists included Gaynel Curry, from the United Nations (UN) Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), and Karen Stefiszyn, from the UN Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM).
The UN officials on the panel said nothing to distance themselves from Benshoof’s remarks. In fact, Curry spoke favorably of CEDAW committee recommendations that “encourage cultural changes,” while Stefiszyn highlighted the role of CEDAW in liberalizing Colombia’s abortion law, a development that Benshoof proudly took credit for working on. Both Curry and Stefiszyn lamented the high number of reservations to CEDAW by States Parties, and saw them as the greatest challenge to fulfilling its vision.
All three panelists discussed the need of the US to impose the “temporary special measures” provisions of Article 4 of CEDAW to bring about equal participation of women in all areas of society. Benshoof stated that implementing the special measures of CEDAW in the United States would require quotas to ensure equal representation between women and men in the legislative, executive, and judicial branches.
A recent paper by Resident Scholar Christina Hoff Sommers of the American Enterprise Institute found that Benshoof’s views on CEDAW are firmly in the mainstream of feminist thought, and warned that “CEDAW would give the activists and lawyers … the license to sue, reeducate, and resocialize their fellow citizens — opportunities that have eluded them under the Constitution.”
Despite the fact that CEDAW does not mention abortion, the compliance committee that oversees the treaty has taken an increasingly aggressive approach in reading a pro-abortion interpretation into the treaty. Research by Thomas Jacobson of Focus on the Family has demonstrated that the CEDAW committee has pressured over 75 countries to legalize or increase access to abortion since 1995.

"Do you not recognize, My children, the signs of your times? Read and learn: 'Women will become unlike women. They shall go forth, and seven women will take hold of one man and say to him: Make me as you are. I wish to eat your bread.' [see Isaias 4:1]
"Know, My child, this simple lesson, that in these days of the latter times, women shall seek to cast off their role as mother and a woman. Woman will cast it off under the direction of satan, and murder her children. Woe to the woman who does not repent of this vile abomination! She has walked the road to eternal damnation and hell. Repent, O woman, or forever be lost!" - Our Lady of the Roses, March 18, 1975
Our Lady of
the Roses Bayside messages
These messages came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica Lueken at
Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995.
LIBERATION?
"Paganism
will not be tolerated by the Father, neither in your lay life nor in the House
of My Son. It is an abomination for women to speak in the House of God! I hear a
word—defilement
of man, liberation? My child, what is this liberation women ask for? Satan has
created the plan for their destruction. Take your Bible, take the Book of life
and study it and learn!" - Our Lady,
July 15, 1974
REBELLING AGAINST
HER DESTINY
"My
child, make it known to the world that woman must return to her place as woman,
for she has been misled. Was it not woman who fell to satan in the beginning?
"Her disobedience to the will of God brings much sorrow upon her and her
children. It would be better now, My children, if woman would be silent, for she
does not know the road she is traveling. It is only satan who has set her to
rebel against her destiny." - Our Lady,
March 24, 1974
MAN THE
BREADWINNER
"Where is
the place of the man and father? Where has he gone from the homes? Why has woman
sought to take his place? Satan has created this delusion. The place of woman is
in the home and the rearment of the child. The man will be the breadwinner and
safeguard his home." - St. Joachim,
July 25, 1973
EXCHANGED ROLES
"As Saint
Paul wrote to the Romans, that when man has given up God and replaced Him by the
creatures, he would be abandoned, allowed to go onto his path of sin.
"Since women have exchanged their roles as women, preferring to be as men,
and have abandoned their true, true value of life—have
abandoned their role as a mother to carry the creation of their God within their
wombs, they, therefore, will also find that their husbands and sons will find
rejection of women, and men will seek lustfully pleasures with men, known, My
child, as homosexuality. And they will be given and abandoned to their lust,
until all creatures upon earth would live in fear. Women then will find
themselves turning lustful eyes to women-lesbianism, My child." - Our Lady,
September 28, 1974
STAND FORTH AS
EXAMPLES
"They
will do as they have done in the past in honor of the Father; and in the path of
the Father, they will listen to their husbands and honor their husbands within
the home. If they do thus, they will receive honor from their children. The
example in the homes is very, very poor.
"So husbands, now, you will act with love to your wives, but you will keep
them in discipline. Many of them have lost their way. Discipline. And wives,
honor your husbands and do your role as mothers in honor to your God. We see the
example of the homes is very poor....
"Womanhood must be returned to the state in which the Father created it.
Right at this moment a great chastisement is coming upon you, for you have cast
aside your role as women. This you will not do without receiving great
chastisement.
"There will be division in homes unless the fathers stand forth as examples
to their sons and daughters, and the mothers return to their roles as mothers in
the light of God, the Father." - Our Lady,
April 13, 1974
