What I did say was that in some cases the family planning agenda has gone too far. Many nations are struggling to replace their populations and heading toward economic ruin. If picking on Iran for cosponsoring this event on motherhood is the best you can do then I suggest you pick on every UN related document or event that Iran participates in as well. Are you saying that Iran should not be at the UN? It is at the UN that countries come together to work on issues we all agree on. Iran is one of the strongest nations in standing up for family values at the UN in harmony with Article16 of the UDHR which says the family is the fundamental group unit of society and is entitled to protection from society and state. Are you saying that there is something wrong with nations working together to strengthen this fundamental group unit? Who would have thought that there would come a day when "Recognizing the Critical Role of Mothers" would be considered a negative thing. Most women in the world are mothers and this all important role is underreccognized. At no time in my speech did I say family planning was incompatible with motherhood.

Do we only value people for their financial compensation levels? What about the values that mothers communicate to their children? What about their value as individuals and the passing on the culture and traditions of their nations? Really, where would the world be without mothers?

Our women and children have been hurt since Independence by the liberal approach to the family and as the research shows contributes immensely to the mayhem in our society and deterioration in the quality of life as we abandon our men and glorify single parent families. The attempt to glorify alternative lifestyles to the detrement of our children is also a puzzling thing that I do not quite understand.

The panel made some great noteworthy obvious points. I especially was impressed with the insight the Nigerian Panel member shared. In addition, According to the "World Health Organization": In the developed world, the decline in maternal mortality rates coincided "with the development of obstetric techniques and imporovement in the general health status of women" (from 1935 to the 1950's). From my own experiences in Africa: Better medical care, not abortion, is the solution to the problem of maternal deaths in the developing world. I was able to attend the event.
