Ted Cruz to President Obama: Demand the Release of Meriam Ibrahim
Senator Ted Cruz delivered a message to President Barack Obama
yesterday during his speech at the Road to Majority Conference Thursday
afternoon: demand the release of Meriam Ibraham. His speech follows on
the heels of a large rally outside the White House that he and pro-life
groups led.
Meriam is the Christian woman who was jailed when she was pregnant and was forced to give birth in chains in a Sudanese prison as she awaits a death sentence ad brutal flogging by Muslim officials because of her Christian faith. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
Their “Rescuing Hug” Stunned the World, Now the Twins Are All Grown Up
When
preemie twins Brielle and Kyrie Jackson were born, doctors weren’t sure
they’d make it, until a smart nurse placed the girls together in one
incubator.
These iconic twins were born 12 weeks premature in 1995. They’re lying on their bellies, and the slightly larger baby has her stick-thin arm around her sister. One baby was not expected to live, hospital nurse fought to put them in the same incubator. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

This Group Provides Love and Care to Babies With Severe Disabilities Spared From Abortion
A foundation in Ireland is helping to provide life-affirming options to parents of children born with severe disabilities.
The
mission of The Jack and Jill Children’s Foundation is to provide direct
funding to families of children with brain damage up to the age of 4
who suffer severe intellectual and physical developmental delay,
enabling them to purchase home respite care. They also provide end of
life care to all children up to the age of 4 years. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
Miracle Twins Could Have Died Before Birth, But This Happened
Miracle twins Mackenzie and Anna were born at 24 weeks of pregnancy, but they almost didn’t make it here.
Shortly after the twins’ mother, Lauren Lawton, learned she was pregnant, she learned the girls shared a placenta. That meant one twin was getting too much blood and the other was getting too little. There was a possibility that, as the weeks progressed, the medical condition could claim one or both twins. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

MSNBC Host: Pro-Lifers are “Violent,” Put Abortion Backers’ “Physical Safety” at Risk
Thursday afternoon’s The Cycle plugged the recently released “abortion rom-com” Obvious Child by interviewing the film’s screenwriter and director Gillian Robespierre and lead actress Jenny Slate.
After the hosts spent a couple minutes praising the way in which the film portrayed a “positive, safe, shame-free abortion,”
co-host Krystal Ball took the liberty of asking the director if there
was ever a point where she felt nervous for her “physical safety” citing
the sometimes “violent” nature of anti-abortion activists. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/Thursday afternoon’s The Cycle plugged the recently released “abortion rom-com” Obvious Child by interviewing the film’s screenwriter and director Gillian Robespierre and lead actress Jenny Slate.
I Saw The “Abortion Comedy” “Obvious Child:” Still Nothing Funny About Killing a Baby
Yes, I saw it.
When
“Obvious Child” hit theaters this month, conservatives were aghast the
media glorified it – without irony – as an “abortion romantic comedy.” Liberals lashed back, claiming, like the movie’s Director Gillian Robespierre, that “[Conservatives bashing Obvious Child] haven’t seen the movie; they’re basing it on articles and trailers.” http://www.lifenews.com/2014/Yes, I saw it.“I Didn’t Expect Him to Be So Big:” Ultrasound Saves Unborn Baby From Abortion When “Bethany’s” pregnancy test came back positive, her first thought was to terminate the pregnancy. Just 22 years old and in her senior year of college, Bethany had already mapped out her future. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
Caroline’s Cart: Mom Invents Shopping Cart for People with Special Needs
Drew Ann Long never planned to be an inventor. She was a busy mom with
three children, including Caroline who has special needs. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
Senate Democrats Pushing Bill to Wipe Out Every Single Pro-Life Law on Abortion
Few Americans are aware that a “Gosnell Prerogative Act” has been
introduced in Congress. This bill would permit the grisliest abortion
providers—like the now-convicted murderer, Kermit Gosnell—to set the
standard of care for abortion. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

Abortion Places the Will of Parents Over the Child When It Should be the Opposite One of the problems with the pro-choice position, aside from the fact that abortion unjustly kills an innocent child, is the fact that it places the will of the parents over the needs of the child, when in fact it should be the other way around. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
One-Child Policy Drives Chinese Father of Four to Commit Suicide So His “Illegal” Kids Can Attend School China’s draconian one-child policy has claimed many victims—hundreds of millions of unborn children have lost their lives, tens of thousands of women have died from botched abortions and sterilizations, and tens of thousands more have committed suicide to end the pain of late-term, forced abortions—but Wang Guangrong’s story is particularly tragic. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
