The U.S. embassy is flying in LGBT activists from across Europe for a strategy dinner to plan to push for decriminalization in places that still outlaw homosexuality \u2014 mostly concentrated in the Middle East, Africa and the Caribbean.<\/p>\n<div id=\"taboolaReadMoreBelow\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cIt is concerning that, in the 21st century, some 70 countries continue to have laws that criminalize LGBTI status or conduct,\u201d said a U.S. official involved in organizing the event.<\/p>\n<section class=\"inlineVideo___3ZAlE\">\n<div class=\"background___MJluj\">\n<div class=\"player___16ja0\">\n<div class=\"videoPlayer container___2PgWR adNotPlaying___2SAW9\">\n<div class=\"relative\">\n<div class=\"vilynx_enabled vilynx_registered\" data-vilynx-id=\"https:\/\/www.msnbc.com\/andrea-mitchell-reports\/watch\/richard-grenell-seeking-to-end-global-criminalization-of-homosexuality-1444838979762\"><picture class=\"\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/media11.s-nbcnews.com\/j\/MSNBC\/Components\/Video\/201902\/n_mitchell_brk_trump_homosexuality_190219_1920x1080.860;484;7;70;5.jpg\" media=\"(min-width: 1240px)\" \/><source srcset=\"https:\/\/media11.s-nbcnews.com\/j\/MSNBC\/Components\/Video\/201902\/n_mitchell_brk_trump_homosexuality_190219_1920x1080.1000;563;7;70;5.jpg\" media=\"(min-width: 758px)\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"vilynx_mainImg\" src=\"https:\/\/media11.s-nbcnews.com\/j\/MSNBC\/Components\/Video\/201902\/n_mitchell_brk_trump_homosexuality_190219_1920x1080.760;428;7;70;5.jpg\" \/><\/picture><\/div>\n<div class=\"playButtonOuter___2AJa_\">\n<div>U.S. Ambassador to Germany Richard Grenell at a reception in Berlin on Jan. 14, 2019.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"playButtonInner___O15q7\">By Josh Lederman<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pt4 pl4 pr8 pt5-m pl6-m pr9-m info___3BGcG\">\n<p><span class=\"infoText___2xq7T f2 ttu mt3\"><span class=\"date___2i7u0\">FEB. 19, 2019<\/span>03:28<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"share___20RDh share___1JwIX\">\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"shareList___CJe3K shareList___2nQGQ\">Although the decriminalization strategy is still being hashed out, officials say it\u2019s likely to include working with global organizations like the United Nations, the European Union and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, as well as other countries whose laws already allow for gay rights. Other U.S. embassies and diplomatic posts throughout Europe, including the U.S. Mission to the E.U., are involved, as is the State Department\u2019s Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"\">Narrowly focused on criminalization, rather than broader LGBT issues like same-sex marriage, the campaign was conceived partly in response to the recent reported execution by hanging of a young gay man in Iran, the Trump administration\u2019s top geopolitical foe.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Grenell, as Trump\u2019s envoy to Germany, has been an outspoken Iran critic and has aggressively pressed European nations to abandon the 2015 nuclear deal and re-impose sanctions. But while the Trump administration has had some success in pressuring Iran through stepped-up U.S. penalties, efforts to bring the Europeans along have thus far largely fallen flat.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Reframing the conversation on Iran around a human rights issue that enjoys broad support in Europe could help the United States and Europe reach a point of agreement on Iran. Grenell called the hanging \u201ca wake-up call for anyone who supports basic human rights,\u201d in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bild.de\/politik\/kolumnen\/kolumne\/ambassador-grenell-the-hanging-of-a-gay-man-in-iran-should-be-a-wakeup-call-59900136.bild.html\">Bild<\/a>, a leading German newspaper, this month.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cThis is not the first time the Iranian regime has put a gay man to death with the usual outrageous claims of prostitution, kidnapping, or even pedophilia. And it sadly won\u2019t be the last time,\u201d Grenell wrote. \u201cBarbaric public executions are all too common in a country where consensual homosexual relationships are criminalized and punishable by flogging and death.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">He added that \u201cpoliticians, the U.N., democratic governments, diplomats and good people everywhere should speak up \u2014 and loudly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Yet by using gay rights as a cudgel against Iran, the Trump administration risks exposing close U.S. allies who are also vulnerable on the issue and creating a new tension point with the one region where Trump has managed to strengthen U.S. ties: the Arab world.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">In Saudi Arabia, whose monarchy Trump has staunchly defended in the face of human rights allegations, homosexuality can be punishable by death, according to a 2017 worldwide report from the International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex Association (ILGA). The report identified 72 nations that still criminalize homosexuality, including eight where it\u2019s punishable by death.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">That list includes the United Arab Emirates, Pakistan and Afghanistan \u2014 all U.S. allies \u2014 although those countries aren\u2019t known to have implemented the death penalty for same-sex acts. In Egypt, whose leader Trump has effusively praised, homosexual relations aren\u2019t technically illegal but other morality laws are used aggressively to target LGBT people.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">New U.S. pressure on those countries to change their laws comes as the Trump administration is working to use nascent ties between Arab nations and Israel to form a powerful axis against Iran, a strategy that dovetails with the administration\u2019s planned rollout of an ambitious plan for Israeli-Palestinian peace.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<div class=\"evernoteSiteMemory\"><a href=\"javascript:\" onclick=\"Evernote.doClip({title: 'Trump administration starts campaign to end global criminalization of homosexuality',url: 'https:\/\/hoshanarabbah.org\/blog\/2019\/02\/20\/homosexuality\/',contentID: 'post-14120',suggestTags: 'Gay,Homosexuality',providerName: 'Hoshana Rabbah Blog',styling: 'text' });return false\" class=\"evernoteSiteMemoryLink\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.evernote.com\/article-clipper.png\" \nclass=\"evernoteSiteMemoryButton\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evernoteSiteMemoryClear\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Please pray that YHVH Elohim reveals to President Trump the biblical view on the issue of homosexuality, and that he acts righteously in this regard.
