Controversial Abortion Pill

Once again, The Times demonstrates the true essence of the word absurd in its editorial. It is truly absurd to support the import of RU-486 under the guise of cancer treatment research. The purpose for importing RU-486 is to make the killing of prenatal life more convenient than ever before, and oh, how we love convenience.

It galls me to see such quotes as “. . . responsibility of doctors under the Hippocratic oath,” when it is these very doctors who are murdering defenseless children.

Furthermore, Dr. William Regelson cites the 43,000 victims of breast cancer and doesn’t even whisper a word of the 1.3 million children who are slaughtered annually and are the intended victims of this heinous drug.
