Are all abortions wrong? Is there ever a time when it is the moral choice?
Dr. Gisella Perl was instructed to report all pregnant women in Auschwitz so they could be exterminated. And so, to save the mothers in the hope that they would survive and later have children, she performed abortions. On dirty floors without anesthesia or medical instruments she did it. Her story is not the only one.
Should these women been allowed to be exterminated with their unborn child? Or if the pregnancy was hidden, what then of the infant? Used for experiments or thrown up in the air and bayoneted as they come down?
Its not black and white. Who draws the line? A human is not a bald eagle and the comparison is repugnant.
It's simple. Its about the sanctity of life. If a mothers life is not at risk, then why abort? If a mothers life is at risk, then the answer is still simple.

Interesting how you are using Nazi Germany as a parallel. The Nazis also said Jews weren't really people, just like the pro-death cult tries to minimize and call unborn babies 'not really people' as well.
Alas, we live in a new country, with new extermination/concentration camps, labeled Planned Parenthood. The death/murder/genocide, is just ultra cozy now

I believe even today the general consensus is, if the life of the mother is in danger, abort the pregnancy.

One has to wonder, under those conditions what percentage of women survived the abortion.

I think the more relevant question is not who, but what draws the line.

To be sure, although mostly an entirely self centered one.
