Llaman a la solidaridad del pueblo para erradicar la violencia
Denuncian Hondureñas escalada de violencia después del golpe
Por la Redacción
México, D.F. 2 jun 10 (CIMAC).- El Movimiento de Mujeres por la Paz “Visitación Padilla” de Honduras, conmemoró el Día de Acción por la salud de las Mujeres, con un llamado a la solidaridad del pueblo, para visibilizar la opresión que enfrentan y sumarse a su lucha para erradicar la violencia en sus vidas.
Como parte de la Campaña Nacional contra los Femicidios “En Memoria de sus Vidas No dejaremos impunes sus muertes”, y de la Campaña Regional “Por el acceso a la Justicia para las mujeres”, la organización destacó que la violencia “nos destruye y acaba contaminando a toda la familia”.
En un comunicado, destacaron que si antes del golpe de Estado en Honduras ya sufrían exclusión en la atención médica de los hospitales, después del golpe, se agudizaron las condiciones de abandono e irresponsabilidad, faltan medicinas en los hospitales y la atención carece de calidad y calidez.

Statement of Isha L'Isha - Haifa Feminist Center
Statement of Isha L'Isha - Kindly distribute internationally
We, the women of Isha L'Isha – Haifa Feminist Center, express deep
shock at the continuing and deteriorating consequences of the siege on
Gaza. We express our solidarity with women peace activists who acted
to break the inhuman siege on women, children and men; a siege that
has been preventing basic human freedoms, health services and
essential materials.
We extend our support to our sisters in the feminist movement,
especially those who went out to exercise their right to protest
against an outrageous injustice, and found themselves facing a
military attack that was a result of a violent state policy.
We call on women and men in Israeli society to resist the assault on
the most basic human values, and to join our call – the attack on the
peace flotilla is an attack on me. The siege on Gaza endangers us all.
Isha L’Isha – Haifa Feminist Center is a multi-cultural feminist
collective established in 1983. Our aim is to bring about social
change by promoting values of equal rights and equal opportunities for
all women; eradicating discrimination, violence and oppression of
women; and fostering solidarity among women.

Mexico Ignores Inter-American Court Rulings
By Emilio Godoy
MEXICO CITY, May 31, 2010 (IPS) - Six months after the Inter-American Court of Human Rights handed down two sentences against the Mexican state, one of them linked to the wave of murders of women in Ciudad Juárez, little has been done to comply with the rulings.
The Court found the Mexican state guilty in November 2009 of denial of justice to Claudia González, 20, Esmeralda Herrera, 15, and Berenice Ramos, 17, whose bodies were found with the corpses of five other women in November 2001 on a piece of waste ground known as Campo Algodonero on the outskirts of Ciudad Juárez, a sprawling industrial city on the U.S. border.
The Mexican state was held responsible for "the lack of measures for the protection of the victims…the lack of prevention of these crimes, in spite of full awareness of the existence of a pattern of gender-related violence that had resulted in hundreds of women and girls murdered, the lack of response of the authorities to the disappearance (of the women), the lack of due diligence in the investigation of the homicides…, as well as the denial of justice and the lack of an adequate reparation" to their families.
The sentence was considered a landmark ruling because it was the first time a state was found responsible in cases of gender-based murders, known as "femicides".

Sister Margaret McBride Excommunicated For Support Of Life-Saving Abortion (VIDEO)
PHOENIX (AP) -- A nun and administrator at a Catholic hospital in Phoenix has been reassigned and rebuked by the local bishop for agreeing that a severely ill woman needed an abortion to survive.
Sister Margaret McBride was on an ethics committee that included doctors that consulted with a young woman who was 11 weeks pregnant late last year, The Arizona Republic newspaper reported on its website Saturday. The woman was suffering from a life-threatening condition that likely would have caused her death if she hadn't had the abortion at St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center

México, segundo proveedor de EU de víctimas de trata
Entre 16 mil y 20 mil niños y niñas son víctimas de explotación sexual cada año en México, lo que convierte al país en la segunda nación que más víctimas de trata provee a Estados Unidos, superado únicamente por Tailandia, afirmó la diputada, Cora Pinedo Alonso, del Partido Nueva Alianza.
La también secretaria de la Mesa Directiva de la Cámara baja precisó que el municipio de Tapachula, Chiapas, es el lugar donde se realiza la mayor venta de mujeres, niñas y niños con fines de trata.
Muchos de esos menores son "redistribuidos" a los estados de Oaxaca, Michoacán, Guerrero, Jalisco, Nayarit, Sinaloa y el Distrito Federal, señaló con base a estudios de la organización internacional End Child Prostitution Child Pornography and Trafficking of Children for Sexual Purposes (ECPAT).
