US Embassy to Hold First-Ever Gay
Pride Party Tonight
May

This is a NEW LEVEL of
abomination. This act by President Obama is what Paul the apostle meant by rulers
of darkness and spiritual wickedness in high places. We must bind together in prayer for this man
that he will be protected from himself and his evil desires, and protected from
the evil men and women that he has surrounded himself with. We need to pray that God will overrule this
man, and his policies. And finally that the eyes of the American people will be
opened and that power shall be removed from this man in the 2010 mid-term
elections.
In the short time that President Obama has
been in office, there have been many breaches of foreign protocol such as an
overt familiarity with the British Queen and bowing to the Saudi King. But the
most significant indiscretion will occur tonight as homosexuality is promoted
in our embassy in a foreign land — in
In the May 22, 2009 edition of The Washington Post, columnist Al Kamen wrote a piece entitled, "For One Night, Baghdad
Gets a Pink Zone." He revealed that the State Department is "holding
what the invitation says is the first-ever
The ideas of tolerance, diversity, and understanding are frequently toted by
President Obama and his allies on the left. They have claimed that these
attributes were lacking during the Bush years, specifically regarding Middle
Eastern policy. However, by allowing a gay pride party to be sanctioned by the
government the current administration is not showing any tolerance or
understanding of the Middle Eastern culture and religion.
These gay rights spectacles are offensive to many in
The Islamic culture does not appreciate or allow public sexual displays to
begin with. Now the American embassy is going to display sexuality in a way
that will do nothing but offend the host population, needlessly complicating an
already sensitive situation. The question becomes, who is going to suffer? Our
embassy officials, or our soldiers on the ground who
will endure the increased outrage when events such as this occur?
Frequently cited among Muslims is not a dislike of Americans, but a dislike of
the American culture's brazen sexual behavior such as that demonstrated during
a gay pride event. Prominent sexual conduct is considered by the Middle
Easterners as one example of the debauchery within Western culture that they do
not want imported within their homes and country, and they are willing to fight
us to allow their culture to remain unaffected. A gay pride display sponsored
in an official location such as an embassy can only serve to provoke and
inflame Muslim distrust and distain for Western and American culture.
Gay pride events began in 1970, to commemorate the one-year anniversary of the
Stonewall "rebellion," when protests and riots ensued for several
nights following a police raid at the Stonewall Inn, a gay bar on Christopher
Street in New York City. These parties and parades have since occurred during
the end of June, spreading to cities around the world. In June 2000, Bill
Clinton declared June Gay and Lesbian Pride Month, with the last Sunday
reserved as Gay Pride Day. As this year is the 40th anniversary of the
Stonewall riot, there has been an increased spotlight on gay pride, even among
our State Department officials in Middle Eastern countries.
Gay activists have become as aggressive and assertive as the police were
overzealous in the establishment on
The liberals scream abridgement of the separation of church and state at the
thought of a prayer being said at a public school graduation, a university that
has accepted government assistance, a military service, or any other gathering
involving government officials or funds. But now we have the religion of
liberalism taking over the state as its church to espouse their theological
values.
More offensive than our men in arms in an Islamic country are men in drag, as this strikes at the very core of propriety and decency
within their culture. To the average Muslim, the threat of a Christian solder
in their country to provide order is not nearly as threatening as the
Westerners' presence being the harbingers of gay pride and other events
reflecting moral decadence. The Islamic world is already leery of moral decay
in America, and tonight's party at our Iraqi embassy celebrating conspicuous
sexual behavior will only give the Muslims more motivation for wanting American
and Western influence permanently out of their lands.
