Abortionist admits that abortion is killing: ‘We are the executioners’

Pro-choice author Magda Denes, Ph.D., interviewed abortionists and clinic workers for her book In Necessity and Sorrow, Life and Death inside an Abortion HospitalSurprisingly, many of the abortionists she interviewed admitted that they were terminating life. In fact, Denes said of her interviewees:

One abortionist in particular made it very clear that he and the other doctors knew they were killing children. He speaks first about how strange it was to be treating premature babies and helping them survive while at the same time killing preborn babies of the same age elsewhere through abortion:

The abortionist then describes how doing late-term abortions was easy for him because he started doing earlier abortions and “worked his way up” to the later ones. Because he was used to killing younger children, he was able to desensitize himself, which helped him progress to killing older children. These older babies actively reacted to his attempts to kill them.

He is speaking about saline abortions, an abortion method that was frequently used in the 1970s and ’80s but is less common now due in part to the large numbers of babies who were born alive, including Melissa Ohden. In this type of abortion, the abortionist injects a toxic saline solution into the mother’s womb, which slowly poisons and kills the child. It can take hours for a baby to die this way.

The abortionist says he never tells the women that their babies are struggling for their lives:

Then he makes the big admission:

This abortionist accurately characterizes himself and other abortionists as “executioners.” He is hardly the only one to admit that abortion is killing. You can read other quotes from abortionists and clinic workers admitting that they kill human beings here.
