Australian Abortion Mills Born Alive Horror

Is there no justice in the World? the state of Queensland in Australia has approximately the same population as New Zealand. In 2007 alone, 19 babies are on record as being born alive as the result of botched abortions: and left to die, wrapped in cloth on the cold hard steel bench in the abortion mill.

It defies imagination and boundaries of cruelty - I can make no further comment, but below are excerpts from the article.

A growing number of induced babies are born alive following failed late-term abortions.

New Queensland Health figures show 19 babies were aborted at 20 weeks or more in 2007, but rather than dying at birth as intended, the newborns were able to breathe unaided.

The babies, some as advanced as 26 weeks, were aborted using drugs to induce labour. Once born, no medical help was offered and they died soon afterwards.

"If babies are born alive after this they are likely to die within a few minutes, although it can take up to half an hour," she said. "We can only keep them wrapped up warm. It is up to the parents whether they want to see the child."

Some were life-threatening, but they also included cleft palates and club feet.

  1. did these babies die due to the drugs the mother was given to induce the labour or were they healthy and just left to die? could they have been saved after the drugs were in their system? so many questions. so many things wrong with the world we live in.

  2. Thanks for your comment. Some babies born alive following a botched abortion have survived, others are not, due to the extremely unfavourable conditions of their birth. The fact that the birth is premature means that the baby is not yet strong enough to withstand the pressure of being pushed out of the mother, and the bruising often kills the child. If this doesn't kill the child, often the fact that its lungs are not yet fully developed to breathe in the outside world will kill the child, with its under-developed lungs gasping for air that they are not yet ready to breathe. Other times you're right - the poison given the baby, or the damage done to it by the abortionist's tools will cause the baby to die shortly after birth.

    No matter how rarely, these acts of absolutely barbaric cruelty are going on in abortion mills near us, and we must not only be shocked and disgusted, but prompted into action on the behalf of the victims - as they have no voice of their own.
