Fatal mistake: Chinese pro-life activist seeking help from US government
American authorities deceive Chinese activist and deliver him to the den of Chinese communist lions

Chen Guangcheng, a pro-life activist in China,
made the fatal mistake of seeking help from the US Embassy in China.

Everyone hoped he would ask for asylum,
but the developments, unfolding in view of the international media, took an
untoward turn. Chen, who is blind from childhood and has health problems after
years of prison and torture, was promised by American authorities that he could
stay in China and receive medical treatment, with an American companion present
at all times.
As reported by the press and the US
Embassy, Chen himself “wanted” to stay in China. This “decision” freed Hillary
Clinton from diplomatic and commercial complications during her visit to China.
After all, America has immense commercial interests in China, and Chen was
being a thorn in the side for the Chinese and American governments.
Hillary was satisfied with the Chen’s “decision”
not to seek asylum, saying that his exiting the embassy reflected his “choices”
and the “values” of the USA. Meanwhile, the American officials breathed a sigh
of relief at being able to return this thorny problem back to the Chinese!
However, after his transfer to a
hospital in Peking, no American official stayed with him. The American
commitment, made to a desperate soul, was insincere.
“They pressed me to leave, they promised
that there would be people with me in the hospital, but when I entered my room,
I perceived that everybody had left,” Chen revealed, according a report by the
Brazilian newspaper Estadão.
When contacted at the hospital by the
international media, he admitted the obvious: he could not request asylum from
the US government, because his family was under a direct death threat and he
was under pressure. According to his statement, if he dared to leave for
America, Chinese authorities would have killed his wife and children.
Embassy officials were indifferent and evasive,
stating they had not heard about any threat or pressure on Chen. Evidently,
according to them, the entire sacrifice made for Chen to arrive at the embassy
was just a noble gesture, sort of a way of saying “hi” to the Americans.
Nothing else. After six days of being sheltered in the embassy and saying “hi,”
at last the Chinese activist “chose” to leave and to stay in his homeland, to
the relief of the Chinese and American governments,.
Chen’s “choice” greatly pleased the US
government, because Chen is not the kind of activist that American authorities
would have wanted to help. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are shamelessly
pro-abortion, while Chen is pro-life.
Any individual, no matter how important,
who is cruel enough to defend the murder of innocent unborn babies is capable of
committing any other sin, including deceiving and lying to a poor, oppressed
blind Chinese man who sees more of the true value of life than most representatives
of the Chinese and American governments.
The communist government in China had
always lied to the Chinese people and to Chen. And now Chen has the unpleasant
experience of enduring attitudes that are not very different and total
abandonment by a government that claims to stand for human rights, a government
he had supposed was radically different from his.
But what would have happened if the US
government had not been deceptive and if Chen had been granted asylum in the US?
Would he have pursued his cause of denouncing the crime of abortion? In that
case, the aim of the accusations would have been US officials themselves. This
would certainly have been a major problem!
The kind of human rights work carried
out by Chen doesn’t have the US government’s sympathy.

The fact is, self-proclaimed
“evangelicals” Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton and other powerful
American officials have no any interest in rescuing men that publicly plead for
the rescue of the unborn.
Chen’s presence in the US Embassy in
Peking was an inconvenience. His presence in America as a prominent pro-life activist
would be a bigger inconvenience.
And yet if Chen were a homosexual
activist, his presence in the embassy would be welcomed. Obama and Clinton
would be highly supportive. In fact, since December of 2011, US embassies and consulates have
been ordered by government to grant preferential treatment to gay activists.
For the US government, meeting
homosexual demands is vastly more important than stopping the murder of unborn
babies!
Disoriented and desperate, Chen doesn’t
know what to do, except to direct appeal to the nation that was insincere and unfair
to him: “I would like to ask to president Obama, I beg him, to do everything he
can so that our family may leave.”
Perhaps, under pressure from the
countless pro-life Americans, Obama may still act against his own pro-abortion
conscience and give a chance to a defenseless Chinese surrounded by oppressors
in the service of the State. Perhaps.

“Do
not trust influential people, mortals who cannot help you. When they breathe
their last breath, they return to the ground. On that day their plans come to
an end. Blessed are those who receive help from the God of Jacob. Their hope
rests on the LORD their God, who made heaven, earth, the sea, and everything in
them. The LORD remains faithful forever. He brings about justice for those who
are oppressed. He gives food to those who are hungry. The LORD sets prisoners
free. The LORD gives sight to the blind. The LORD straightens the backs of
those who are bent over. The LORD loves righteous people.” (Psalms 146:3-8 GWV)
