Partial-Birth Abortion Procedure Using The Real Instruments. Excerpt of presentation by Dr. William Lile. More information on the video can be found at http://www.dyinglight.com. To reach Dr. Lile, go to http://www.prolifedoc.org. To order the DVD, visit http://www.dyinglight.com/store. The partial birth abortion is not a rare procedure. It is, essentially, a variant of the even more common and equally gruesome Dilation and Evacuation (D&E) procedure. There are in fact absolutely no obstetrical situations encountered in this country which require a partially delivered human fetus to be destroyed to preserve the life or health of the mother (Dr. Pamela Smith, Senate Hearing Record, p.82: Partial Birth Abortion Ban Medical Testimony). People like Jill Stanek have exposed a practice, in which children marked for abortion are born alive and then killed. This is exactly where the logic of partial-birth abortion leads. On November 5, 2003, President George W. Bush signed into law the Partial-birth Abortion Ban Act of 2003. On April 18, 2007 the Supreme Court announced its decision to uphold the ban on partial-birth abortion. The procedure in question is properly called "partial-birth abortion" because, as even secular sources acknowledge, it requires the doctor to deliver the unborn child partially from the uterus, feet first, leaving the baby's head inside the womb. The doctor then uses scissors and a hollow needle to empty the skull of its contents. The unborn baby's head then collapses and the doctor removes the dead baby entirely from the mother's body. Given the nature of the procedure, the congressmen who drafted legislation to prohibit it, the "Partial-Birth Abortion Act of 1995", defined the procedure as follows: "an abortion in which the person performing the abortion partially vaginally delivers a living fetus before killing the fetus and completing the delivery". The doctors who perform this barbaric act and those who seek to justify it attempt to hide its nature by describing it euphemistically as "intact dilation and evacuation/extraction" or as "intrauterine cranial decompression. "Physicians Ad Hoc Coalition for Truth" (PHACT), a group of more than 300 medical specialists organized to counter the misinformation provided by the abortion industry of the United States, pointed out: "Partial-birth abortion is never medically necessary to protect the health of a woman or to protect her future fertility; in fact, the procedure can pose grave dangers to the woman". Many people argue that the anesthetics used in the process kill the baby, so death to the child is painless. However the American Society of Anesthesiologists testified to Congress that this is simply not true. On July 11, 1995, American Medical News (AMA's official journal) submitted the transcript of a tape-recorded interview with abortionist Dr. Martin Haskell to the House Judiciary Committee in which he admitted: "...the majority of fetuses aborted this way (partial birth abortion) are alive until the end of the procedure." As disturbing as this sounds, these are the facts. In this country medical doctors are partially delivering babies and then killing them. These babies are inches from being born. Many could be born and placed directly in the loving arms of childless couples for adoption. Instead, they are cruelly killed.

Nov 23, 2008 - Credo: I also know girls who have been raped and have gone on to have the babies and love them more than life itself. I just would not force a woman, especially one who is still a child herself, to have her rapist/relative's baby. I hate abortion and believe partial-birth abortion is never justified, but I am not an extremist.
Ritagrrl Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - Credo: Once again, I am pro-life and hate abortion. I do not support partial-birth abortion. I do support not letting rapists ruin a child's life. I have a daughter. Do you? I doubt it or you might reconsider your extremist position! Go attack a pro-choicer, they are doing much more damage to your cause than I am!
ilovashleytisdale Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - i am so against abortion its unreal i belive that even in harsh conditions such as rape doesnt mean that you have to kill the baby the victim will be tortured for the rest of her life with nightmares anyway. you cant blame on the baby are some people out there wanting babies and cant have them so if its so much of a big deal to you then give the baby away to a good family dont abort it please god loves life xox
Life4MeAndU Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - Barak obama is for making this happen, he voted for it. When we took a vote.
chanhaoyangx2 Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - i'm a sec sch student and studying on this subject. I think abortion is really cruel. A baby is just like any other baby. The baby has all the necessary genetic material to grow and developed into a child. Killing the baby and denying it any choice to be borne is cruel and inhumane. even its the rapist's child or have terminal diseases like down's or turner's syndrome. and notice i use the baby instead of 'it'
car0laar0n Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - its no ok to have an abortion but its definetly cruel to get an abortion especially when the baby is already formed and just needed a few more weeks to come out..how can a mother do such a cruel thing? it made me cry watchin this video
kaober002 Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - I totally agree with Ritagrrl, why can't people call a baby a baby before it's born? Even though the mother's body is needed to sustain it, it is a baby, living, breathing, FEELING! It has been proven that baby's feel pain as early as 12 weeks! Also, many abortions ARE performed (especially partial birth abortion) after 21 weeks when babys CAN live outside the womb!
NoAbomination Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - Because to call a baby a baby would be to humanize that life.Despite what people believe, abortion is a fiscally beneficial business. I worked at a pro life center and we were constantly threatened by paid representatives of abortion clinics, who were disturbed by our initiatives decreasing their profits. It is not primarily about womens rights, it is about financially benefiting an industry of legal murder. End of story
bennettandkelly Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - Not only does Barack Obama have a 100% "pro-choice" voting record to continue this cruel and unnecessary procedure, but he even thinks that babies who have survived the horrible procedure should be left to die! (...since they were 'supposed to die' anyway). What a world we live in when this kind of horrendous procedure still continues, with no regard for the most innocent of all.
nuttybar9 Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - it should be mandatory that all young girls and women who are thinking about getting an abortion be shown this video
JessicaLQ Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - I'm not agaist Abortion along its at the very early stage of devopvment, like first getting pregrent. I think killing a baby when its near life is just worng and curel. A preson is a preson no matter how small.
Fanatic4FreeThought Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - TRUTH ALERT!There's so much ignorance about abortion, if only people knew more. Its a wonder how so many people can form opinions on abortion when they don't know what it is. I know its a hot-button issue but people on both sides need to stop beings governed by their emotions and start deciding based on the facts. If everyone knew the facts on abortion the controversy would disappear. Nearly all of the questions about abortion have already been answered. Educate yourself, go to abort73(dot)com
Valdeezygirl7 Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - You completely just contradicted yourself. You're right, a person is a person NO MATTER HOW SMALL!!! what do you think "an early stage of development"?? Its a baby for gods sake. I lost a little sister at only 2 days old bc she was sick it and she passed away. it sickens me to see people who just kill an innocent. my family and i would give anything to have my little sister back and you people just go killing them. How fucking selfish can you be?
m015094 Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - People are retarded when it comes to abortion. They see it in black and white. Obviously there is a difference between abortion at 10 weeks and one at 30 weeks. Yes, abortion should be legal, but only up to a certain point of gestation.
raNnb0 Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - I had a vaginal ultrasound at 8 weeks gestation and that sweet little "peanut" attached to my uterine wall kicked - yes, kicked - we watched it on the monitor! It was a BABY with a strong heart beat and it is a living being at conception and don't believe ANYONE who tells you anything different!
DeGKyofangirl Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - Maybe to replace your sister, you should adopt a crack-addicted black baby.
unthinkable93 Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - you think thats funny DeGKyofangirl? your an asshole
23Patricia Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - This video just made me sick. How do u justify this as not murder? The baby is alive when they do this, then the baby dies. What else can you call this? If this doesn't make you sick then I think your mom should have done that to you!
kbrittencrider Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - This just makes me sick! why?! why, would anyone want to do this?
soniarv Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - really good comment, thanks for sharing!!
whitedane Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - lol dont you know its woman empowerment? I am woman, hear me roar, yay for being able to legaly kill my kid!....This is how feminizism has been warped. This is so sad, sick and twisted. My cousins girlfriend was preg with their 2nd child when they broke up, she aborted at 8 months bc she didnt want another kid by him.....he still has nightmares about his daughter.
23Patricia Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - 8 months!!! OMG How do u sleep at night doing that at 8months! Like okay have the baby and give him ir her up for adoption. 8 months! I mean a premie born at 8months can survive, can't he/she not? OMG 8 months! 8 months! I just can't get over that!
whitedane Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - I didnt have that done, my cousins girlfriend did. I have troubles sleeping, I dont know how she can......my cousin Yohan still has nighmares.
JSharmaine Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - I guess when they do it by breaching, they don't have to look at the baby's face when they kill it. Those doctors are going to hell!!!!
Ritagrrl Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - Xcess: I am pro-life so I don't know why you are aiming your caustic comments at me. I hate abortion, but I would never force a child who has been raped to have her rapist's baby, although I do not believe partial-birth abortion is justified in any case. You are "warning me" and you can "take me out so hard"? Ohhhhhhhhh....I am so scared! LOL! Go argue with a pro-choicer if you want some drama. Yeah, I got it. I got that you are an extremist and you give pro-lifers a bad name!
