‘Just’ War and Abortion

In order to accept Kissling’s proposal of a “just abortion” to be considered the equivalent of a “just war,” one would have to accept the idea that an unborn child is an aggressor against his or her own mother--such an aggressor that the child’s death is justified in his or her mother’s defense. Surely this is abhorrent to any thinking person.
