The Irish Times’s bad reporting on our abortion regime overlooks harm to women, the efficacy of the 3-day waiting period, and the horror of late-term abortions The Irish Times (with the honourable exception of columnist Breda O’Brien) seems determined to find no fault with our new abortion regime, other than perhaps that it does not go far […]
Just as slavery is the Achilles heel of 19th century institutions, eugenics is the weak point of abortion providers. The Black Lives Matter movement has unearthed links to slavery in public statuary and founders of American universities. Similarly, Planned Parenthood has had to distance itself from Margaret Sanger and the name of a former president […]
This week, we learned that doctors in Ireland describe the late-term abortions being carried out in Irish maternity hospitals as “stabbing a baby in the heart”. The study observing some of what is happening in regard to these abortions is every bit as shocking, disturbing and as heart-breaking as you’d imagine. But there was worse […]
In March of 2019, a couple attending the National Maternity Hospital were told by doctors that their baby had a condition which meant he would not live after birth. The couple say they were then led towards having an abortion and told not to wait for the results of a second test to confirm the baby […]
Two and a half years ago, those of us who raised the horrifying possibility that Irish babies might be born alive as a result of abortions, and left to suffer slow, painful deaths, were denounced as scaremongering monsters who were out to upset women and lie to the public. But we were telling the truth. […]
A paper examining the practice of late-term abortion and feticide in Irish maternity hospitals paints a deeply disturbing picture of the brutal reality of Ireland’s abortion regime. Three medical professionals from various departments of University College Cork sought to look at the experience of 10 Fetal Medicine Specialists who provided abortion in Ireland in cases where […]
Police shot rubber bullets at Polish nationalists marching through Warsaw in celebration of the country’s Independence Day yesterday.
In the face of massive protests, the government of Poland has delayed indefinitely the implementation of a law banning abortions of children with birth defects. The country’s supreme court ruled last month that this was unconstitutional, sparking huge demonstrations every day across the country. The government, led by the conservative Law and Justice Party (PiS), […]
As everyone knows, people with disabilities are being wiped out by abortion. The most lethal form of discrimination is being openly practised in many supposedly civilised countries, with up to 90% of babies diagnosed with Down syndrome now aborted before they are born. Meanwhile, the world stands idly by and talks about equality and inclusion while ignoring the elephant […]
Due to the massive imbalance in their demographics, the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party announced the decision to relax the one-child policy. Under the new policy, families could have two children if one parent, rather than both parents, was an only child. Apart from the violence endured by many Chinese women who were […]
Tens of thousands of Polish women defying lockdown rules in the streets. Cathedrals invaded by chanting crowds. Handmaids walking down church aisles. Banners with slogans like: “You Have Blood on Your Hands” and “You are Building Women’s Hell.” Ever since Poland’s highest court ruled last Thursday that abortion due to foetal defects is unconstitutional, the […]
