Proverbs 14:34 Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.

In the short few decades of this nation independence, their government has been under much turmoil, displayed by its coups and executions. Only four men have been President, the first, Maurice Yameogo, while it was still called Upper Volta. After his relatively short term of 6 years, he moved to Cote d'Ivoire and has lived there since. The former Army Chief of Staff, Sangoule Lamizana took over and stayed in office until 1980 when he was ousted from his position due to a coup led by Captain Thomas Sankara. The current leader is Blaise Compaoré. He overthrew Sankara and ordered his execution in 1987. The blood-thirsty military are in charge over in Burkina Faso. This will remind anyone who has read the history of the Kings of Ten Northern Tribes of Israel of their bloody successions and frequent shift in power from family to family. All because they would NOT obey their God!

In 1989 the two other members of Compaoré's triumvirate, Maj. Jean-Baptiste Boukari Lingani, and Capt. Henri Zongo, who disagreed with the President's reform ideas where accused of planning a coup and executed. Burkina Faso is run by a greedy, bloody man.

They also are fond of framing mischief by a law (Psalm 94:20 Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law? 21 They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.) Here are some key points to know:

Age of consent is 13. YIKES!

It is just fine to practice filthy homosexual acts as long as you are 21.

http://www.reproline.jhu.edu/english/2mnh/2pa/pacbf.htm Describes a "collaborative project developed by the Burkina Faso Chapter of the Reproductive Health Research Network (CRESAR) in partnership with the JHPIEGO Corporation and The Population Council. The goal of the project is to contribute to a decrease in maternal mortality and morbidity associated with incomplete abortions in Burkina Faso through the training of staff in improved treatment procedures and postabortion family planning." And lists the following as their goals:

• increasing the clinical knowledge of Obstetric/Gynecologic specialists in the care and treatment of spontaneous or induced abortions, including the use of MVA with both appropriate pain management and recommended infection prevention (IP) practices;
• improving the family planning (FP) counseling knowledge and skills of physicians and healthcare staff providing treatment for postabortion complications;
• increasing the knowledge and use of FP services among women receiving treatment for an induced abortion or miscarriage;
• establishing two MVA service sites in Burkina Faso which potentially could serve as training sites
• describing and comparing the cost, feasibility and acceptability of MVA services for the treatment of postabortion complications with D&C services.

Yes - please have lots of training sites where the Burkinabe can learn to murder!
