Douglas Karpen Snipped Babies’ Necks Worse Than Gosnell, Is
Anyone Noticing?
If Americans
found the Gosnell trial disturbing, there can be no words to describe Douglas
Karpen’s abortion clinic in Houston, Texas. Operation Rescue has been
on the scene for years, working to stop Karpen. Thanks to Operation Rescue’s
Abortion Whistleblowers Program, four women who previously worked for Karpen
at the Aaron Women’s Clinic have come forward to describe their horrific
experiences.

President Barack Obama and Rep. Nancy Pelosi came to Chicago yesterday for a
Democratic Party fundraising event, and the Pro-Life Action League was there
to confront the presidential motorcade with pictures of aborted babies—victims
of the “choice” that Obama and Pelosi, et al. so stridently support.Protest of Obama and PelosiWhen we arrived at the Hilton & Towers shortly before 4:00 to set up for our protest, we found that Chicago Police had set up metal fencing all along Michigan Avenue directly in front of the hotel, effectively eliminating our intended protest area. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

Based in New York City, the Expectant Mother Care-EMC FrontLine Pregnancy Centers has helped more than 42,000 women find abortion alternatives. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Melinda Gates, Planned Parenthood and Hillary Clinton Push Illegal
Abortions
It’s
being billed as “the largest global event of the decade to focus on
the health and empowerment of girls and women.” But it is also very
obviously a conference designed to reduce populations of developing nations
by promoting a Western-style sexual revolution via chemical contraceptives,
access to abortion-on-demand including, the promotion of the chemical abortifacient
misoprostol in countries where abortion is illegal, and sex education for
youth.
On Tuesday more than 4,000 delegates from 145 countries attended the launch of the third Women Deliver conference in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
IRS Agent Who Wrote Threatening Letters Gets Promotion, Now a Supervisor
Operation
Rescue has learned more about the death of an abortion patient at a shoddy
Baltimore abortion clinic located in a residential condo complex. The operating
license of that facility, Associates in OB/GYN Care, is currently suspended
after state inspectors determined that it posed a danger to the public.
Computer aided dispatch transcripts show that a 911 call was placed from 3596 N. Calvert, Suite 110, in Baltimore on February 13, 2013, at 12:49 pm for a patient who was unconscious and not breathing. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

Premature Newborn Comes Back to Life in Mother’s Arms After
Pronounced Dead

premature newborn in Australia, born along with his twin sister at just 27
weeks’ gestation and weighing in at only two pounds, was pronounced dead

Jamie Ogg, now a little over three years old, is alive today only because
of the undying love and affection of his mother.

According to the U.K.’s
Daily Mail, when Jamie was pronounced dead, the doctor handed him to his mother,
Kate, so that she could say goodbye to her son. Kate took Jamie into her arms
and tearfully caressed her tiny son. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Planned
Parenthood Has Never Rebuked Lobbyist Who Defended Infanticide
In a now-infamous Planned Parenthood video, the organization betrayed its love for abortion-above-all-else when a representative, testifying against language in Florida HB 1129, proudly admitted to the Florida legislature that Planned Parenthood takes issue with allowing infants born alive after failed abortions to be transported to a hospital. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

Independent Payment Advisory Board’s Death Panels Should Not be Implemented

Gosnell
Will Plead Guilty to Writing Thousands of Illegal Drug Prescriptions
There were broad hints from Kermit Gosnell’s attorney on the day the abortionist was convicted of three counts of first degree murder that his client would plead guilty to charges that he operated what the grand jury described as a “pill mill.”. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

Remembering
When an Abortionist Carved His Initials Into Patient’s Abdomen
Although not widely known, there is a long and sordid history of bizarre behavior by abortionists. In other words, Kermit Gosnell is by no means an “outlier,” as pro-abortion groups insist he is. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
