What a bunch of snowflakes, getting triggered over a simple line.
Why is the GOP so backwards on so many things? How much power does the insane religious right have?
US successfully removes 'sexual health' references from UN resolution on sexual violence
The US successfully used the threat of its veto power on the UN Security Council to demand significant changes to a resolution on sexual violence.
The altered resolution passed on Tuesday following major changes granted by Germany in the face of demands from the US, sources told CNN.CNN previously reported on the threat of a US veto over simple references to "health services" and "sexual and reproductive health" in a UN Security Council resolution targeting rape as a weapon of war and reaffirming the UN's opposition to sexual violence.
The Trump administration has taken measures to avoid supporting efforts and organizations that provide abortion services to women,including victims of rape, and sources say such language is now viewed by the US as a veiled reference to that.
