Hundreds of people have attended a pro-life protest in Dublin which heard calls to defund the Irish Family Planning Association - the Irish affiliate of Planned Parenthood - in the wake of the growing controversy surrounding the shocking undercover videos which captured the Planned Parenthood selling aborted baby parts for sale.
Pro-life activists held signs calling for Planned Parenthood to be defunded, and posters of unborn babies with the question: How Much Are Her Body Parts Worth? More than 60,000 people took part in the day of protest against Planned Parenthood in the US, the UK, Mexico and other countries.
Planned Parenthood, the biggest player in the global abortion industry, has been rocked by a series of videos showing high-level executives in the US discussing how to best harvest body parts from aborted babies, including suggestions of partial birth abortion, and evidence of removing organs from babies whose hearts were still beating.
The graphic and horrific nature of what the videos have revealed has shocked millions of viewers, and has already led to Planned Parenthood being defunded in several US states.
Youth Defence, who organised the Dublin protest at the abortion referral clinic told protesters that Planned Parenthood’s Irish member, the IFPA has serious questions to answer and that taxpayer funding should be withdrawn from the organisation immediately.
“We know that the IFPA’s website boasts of being a member of Planned Parenthood but they have not condemned the horror being revealed by these videos which show Planned Parenthood are harvesting and selling aborted baby parts,” said Clare Molloy of Youth Defence. She said that the videos were ‘sickening’ and that Planned Parenthood’s actions were ‘depraved and inhuman’.
“The IFPA have serious questions to answer. Do they support the sale of aborted baby parts? If not, will they condemn the actions of their affiliate, Planned Parenthood USA? Will the condemn the hideous practise of cutting into a baby’s face to obtain the brain, while the baby’s heart is still beating? Will they join every decent person in saying that it is simply revolting to hear Planned Parenthood executives say that they will crush the baby being aborted in a way that will ensure organs are left intact for sale?”
“The IFPA has received substantial funding from Planned Parenthood ($146,807 US in 2008 alone) – did some of that money come from selling organs of aborted babies? How long has the IFPA been aware of this horrific practice?” she said.
Ms Molloy said that the current head of the HSE, Tony O’Brien, who was previously the IFPA’s Chief Executive, should stand down until the controversy was resolved.
“Was Mr O’Brien aware that his colleagues in Planned Parenthood were engaged in these practises? What does that say about his vision of the HSE and of legalised abortion in Ireland? Does he believe that harvesting aborted baby organs should be legal in Ireland? The public deserve answers to these questions,” said the Youth Defence spokeswoman.
“More than 8 million people have viewed these undercover videos yet the Irish media are largely ignoring this huge controversy,” she added. “It’s time to end the cover-up of these horrific practises by abortion providers who simply don’t care about either mother or baby and are only interested in profiting from women in crisis.”
Youth Defence has launched a social media campaign to break the media silence around the Planned Parenthood videos in Ireland.
PLANNED PARENTHOOD EXPOSED AS SELLING PARTS FROM ABORTED BABIES
In July 2015, the Centre for Medical Progress in California began the release of a number of videos which filmed senior Planned Parenthood directors and doctors discussing the sale of the body parts of babies from early and late term abortions.
Under the guise of a biotechnology company, David Daleiden and his fellow investigators from the Center for Medical Progress (CMP) revealed the abortion industry at its ugliest.
For 30 months, as part of their “Human Capital” investigation, they followed the trail that led to aborted babies whose parts are earmarked for sale, even while their little hearts are still beating.

Appalling and revolting. The fact that the media in general in this country choose to ignore it is equally appalling and revolting. Should you consider getting your supporters and members to bombard the newspapers, local and national with letters. At worst they will ignore, but at least they will know, we know. God bless your efforts.

Everyone should know that abortion is a massive million making industry, who do not care about women, or respect either for mothers and unborn babies. It is an immoral corrupted world today.

Dublin protest good news for life
However doing research I found a lot of errors in RCC ie History tells us it was the pope Damien who told King Henry v111 to invade Ireland and also their error of the story of Knock is not true 1879. because at that time Parnell leader of land league due to greedy landlords high rents eviction of Irish people, he called for boycott of landlords rents, the Parish priest Cannon, of Co Mayo was not in favour of the boycott and many walked out of church in protest then later the story of Knock vision emerged Questioned by first journalist whose had wide experience received not courteous by pp. despite this continued on interviewing others.
The main witness Ms Burke who claimed healed died three weeks later. There seemed political reasons for this story by the Church because of Irish protesters over eviction of tenants by English landlords at time of Parnell

"Let no one deceive you said in scripture's, word of God"
Anyone who ignore His word or adds to it their name will be removed in book of life Revelations.
People have being neglected by the Churches, faith in Sovereign Jesus Christ will focus Ireland. And He will not abandon those repented who follow Word of God

God provided Island of Ireland to Irish ownership. Bravo Dublin's protest against Planned parenthood crime

Vote out pro abortion politicians who support funding the pro abortion IFPA, previously headed by current HSE head, Tony O'Brien. Join the dots. Make the pro abortion connection.
ed h on Sep 8, 2015 9:28pm
Identify the politicians, and would be politicians, who condone and promote abortion, and do everything you can to defeat them in the fast-coming Elections. Get the pro aborts off our City and Count Councils, and out of the Dail.
Patricia on Sep 9, 2015 7:34am
I welcome the Dublin protest of planned parenthood.
ed h on Sep 11, 2015 8:27am
the coming election will see pro abortion politicians who demand the repeal of the 8th, looking for your votes, and those of your family, friends and community. Educate people as to who the pro aborts in Irish politics and media are, pushing to remove the 8TH, so as to open up Ireland to abortion on demand on your street, and in your town. The aborted baby body parts sellinng which Planned Parenthood push, will then follow.
Note the deafening silence and cover-up from the pro abortion Irish media and the IFPA (a Planned Parenthood affiliate) on the this baby parts selling scandal. Not a whimper out of them.
Recently, the Anti Austerity Alliance, in an ostensibly Anti Water Charge leaflet, were also demanding removal of the 8TH. We handed that leaflet back.
Know who you are voting for and what they will give you if you elect them
paula m on Sep 15, 2015 8:24am
Vote the pro abortion Labour party out of government. Labour in government means removal of the 8th, and consequent wider access to abortion leading up to abortion on demand. Abortion on demand is the ultimate aim of Labours pro abortion campaigners
