Românii din Texas organizează un rally pentru familia Bodnariu
Sâmbata, februarie 6, 2016 la orele 10.00 in fata Consulatului
Norvegian din Houston.
Adresa: 3410 West Dallas Street, Houston, Texas 77019.
Asteptam si solicitam participarea a sute de romani din tot statul. Romani din Arkansas si Louisiana si-au anuntat si ei
participarea. Rugam pe toti romanii din Texas si statele adiacente sa
participe.
Mentionam ca evenimentul nu este un mars ori un
eveniment de strada ci un Rally - adica un eveniment care se va tine pe
trotuarele strazii din fata Consulatului. El va incepe la timp si anticipam ca
va dura 2 ore ori chiar mai mult. Si-au anuntat participarea si avocati
americani crestini care pledeaza pentru drepturile copiilor si ale parintilor.
Se anticipeaza prezenta la eveniment a mass mediei locale.
Initiatorii si organizatorii principali ai
evenimentului sunt toate bisericile romane din Houston.
Rally de la Houston e deosebit de important
deoarece Norvegia deriva profituri uriase din afacerile care le face in
Houston. Peste 200 de companii norvegiene fac afaceri in Houston, iar
comunitatea norvegiana din Houston e cea mai mare din afara Norvegiei, in jur
de 10.000 de norvegieni. Mari companii din Houston (Baker Hughes, Halliburton,
KBR ori Exxon) investesc sume uriase in industria energetica a Norvegiei.
Texasul deci e strategic in eforturile noastre comune de a demasca aspectele
intunecate ale Norvegiei si abuzurile pe care Barnevernet le face impotriva
familiei si a copiilor.
Cu ocazia acestui Rally, organizatorii au emis
comunicatul de presa de mai jos. Rugam pe cititorii nostri sa-l publice in
media sociala si sa-si contacteze toti prietenii, cunostintele ori membrii de
familie din Texas cu rugamintea de a participa.

Hundreds of Romanian-Americans from all over
Texas will peacefully rally in front of the Norwegian Consulate General of
Houston to protest the unlawful seizure by the Norwegian Government of the five
(5) children of Marius and Ruth Bodnariu, a Pentecostal Romanian-Norwegian
family living in Norway.
Date and time: Saturday, February 6, 2016, from
10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon
Location: In front of the Norwegian Consulate
General of Houston, at 3410 W. Dallas Street,
Houston, Texas 77019
Why:
Millions of Romanians have left their homeland in the last several
decades to escape political and religious persecution at the hands of the
Communist regime. Many others left seeking a better life abroad. Thousands
resettled in Norway as well where, as everywhere else in the world, they have
maintained their deeply held religious beliefs and traditional values.
On November 16, 2015 Norway's Child Protective
Services, known in Norway as Barnevernet, seized the five (5) children of
Marius and Ruth Bodnariu under cover of darkness and without court order. Four
police officers and two social workers stormed the family farm, accused the
parents of abusing their children, and seized the children, aged between three
(3) months and 9 years old at that time. Inappropriate comments were made about
the family's faith, including the allegation that religion inhibits the proper
development of the children. Three of the children were born in January. Their
unlawful abduction has deprived them of the family birthday celebrations to which
they are rightly entitled.
Norway had long targeted the natural family and
has a systematic policy of removing ethnic children from their immigrant
parents and placing them in foster homes, depriving the parents of their
parental rights, and then putting the children up for adoption.
Since November 16, 2015 tens of thousands of
Romanians have held peaceful rallies in Romania, Europe, North America, and
Australia to protest the violation of the Bodnariu family's parental rights and
parental autonomy. More demonstrations are planned in support of the family in
Poland, Russia, the Czeck Republic, and other countries where families which
have also been victimized by Norway's Child Protective Services live.
On February 6, 2016 Texas' Romanian-Americans
will join this international protest.
Houston is home to 10,000 Norwegian citizens,
the largest Norwegian community outside of Norway. Some 200 Norwegian companies
do business in the Houston Greater Metropolitan Area.
