Telling Words From Abortionists Doctors who carry out abortions are often torn by the contradiction that they became doctors to preserve life, but use their profession to end it. Here are some eye-opening confessions from current and former abortionists: "They [the women] are never allowed to look at the ultrasound because we knew that if they so much as heard the heart beat, they wouldn’t want to have an abortion." –Dr. Randall, former abor-tionist "Even now I feel a little peculiar about it, because as a physician I was trained to conserve life, and here I am destroying it." -Dr. Benjamin Kalish, abortionist "All of a sudden one noticed that at the time of the saline infusion there was a lot of activity in the uterus. That’s not fluid currents. That’s obviously the fetus being distressed by swallowing the con-centrated salt solution and kicking vio-lently and that’s to all intents and pur-poses, the death trauma… somebody has to do it, and unfortunately we are the executioners in this instance." Dr. Szenes, abortionist "I got to where I couldn’t stand to look at the little bodies anymore." -Dr. Beverly McMillan, former abortionist

REVELADORAS PALABRAS DE ABORTISTAS Los médicos que llevan a cabo los abortos son a menudo desgarrados por la contradicción que se convirtieron en los médicos para preservar la vida, sino que utilizan su profesión para poner fin a la misma. Aquí están algunas confe-siones de actuales y ex abortistas: “Ellas (las mujeres) no les permitimos ver el ultra sonido porque sabíamos que si al menos oirían el latido del cora-zón, no quisieran abortar”-Dr. Randall, ex abortista “Incluso ahora me siento un poco raro, porque como doctor fui entrenado a perseverar la vida, y ve me ahora, des-truyéndola”. -Dr. Benjamin Kalish, abortista “De repente uno se da cuenta que al momento de administrarles el agua sali-na, el útero empieza a tener mucha actividad. No fluye el líquido. Obvia-mente es el feto que está agobiado tra-gando el agua salina y pateando violen-tamente y esto es a todos los efectos, el trauma de la muerte….alguien lo tie-ne que hacer, y lamentablemente so-mos nosotros los verdugos.” –Dr. Sze-nes, abortista “Llegue hasta que no pude ver más

cuerpecitos”-Dr. Beverly McMillan, ex

abortista
