UNICEF Involved, Law Passed

The Ortega law, covering new guidelines for adoptions form Guatemala was passed today. There still needs to be a great deal of clarification in order to fully understand what it all means. What I find rather interesting is that there are new laws pending in Haiti as well, and it is the same organization that has been stated as the culprit in both countries that essentially shut down adoptions. That organization is UNICEF. It seems their intentions may be (at least) stated as good, but in the course of pushing their agenda, many children get caught in the cross fire and left without homes. UNICEF has left a dark, long and twisted trail in every country they have influenced in the way they want adoptions handled.

I find it difficult at times like this to fully understand or see the big picture. People within organizations or hold specific beliefs like to "sell" their way of thinking, and it is rather difficult to see the full truth. This is why I dislike politics. It is too shady of an arena for me. Anyway, time will tell if the passing of this law is a good thing or not.
