#1 Idiots. I mean, all rancor aside, this kind of move is just incredibly stupid from a strategic point of view. Splitting their movement, just so that some of their members can fellate their own sense of self-righteousness...I mean, wow. This has got to be the stupidest decision since "stand fast".

#2 One aspect that must be noted is that Amnesia International is trying to AVOID an all out, concerted program/campaign elevating attention to, and condemnation of, rape as an illegal weapon of war. Why? Because United Nations Peacekeepers are guilty of this crime against humanity as well. This would mean AI going against the UN, and that would be suicidal for an organization whose international credentials are dependent on the organization they are condemning. Thus, they advocate legalizing the equvalent cover-up of the crime by aborting the human evidence. Not any different in motivation than the fathers paying abortionists to kill their own sons and daughters before they see the light of day.

American Indian tribes were aware of what their enemy was trying to do when they raped their women. Thus, no stigma was attached to the women, the children were accepted into the tribe, and the males were raised as warriors who could conceivably fight, and kill, their own biological father, half uncles, and half brothers. They not only got mad, they got EVEN.

#3 Yes, well, American Indians were smart. Most real Stone Age people are, because life is a lot harder and shorter for the dumb ones. But the kind of "idealistic" idiots that make up AI, the kind that refuse to see at least half of the reality of the world they move in, that kind would have Darwin Awarded themselves out of existence in the AmeriInds' world.

#4 This is very intentional. The left always tries to infiltrate, then co-opt the agenda of organizations to "the cause".

Essential to this is to force the organization to embrace something offensive to non-leftists, that has nothing to do with the organization. This is done to purge the remaining non-leftists from the organization.

From that point on, the original agenda stops being the focus of the organization, except on paper. Soon, AI will come out to advocate global warming, international taxation, bureaucratic not democratic rule, and all the other bulldada of the left.

The funniest part is how they will support authoritarian regimes that torture.

#5 Amnesty International has long been an anti-American tranzi front group, so anything which can fracture it or diminish its reach or credibility is good news.
