Israeli Doctor Exposes Nazi Abortion Program

September 6, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) - An Israeli doctor has recently
published an account of the Nazi use of abortion, euthanasia, and
sterilization to eliminate groups they deemed "inferior stock",
especially Jewish and Slavic people.

Dr. Tessa Chelouche writes that "Abortion was used as a weapon of mass
destruction in Eastern Europe," where "it has been estimated that tens
of thousands of Polish and Russian women were compelled to abort not
because of health reasons, but because of Nazi dogma." She goes on to
quote Hitler's 1942 policy statement on the application of abortion to
Slavic people, which is chillingly similar to modern Planned
Parenthood propaganda:

"In view of the large families of the Slav native population, it could
only suit us if girls and women there had as many abortions as
possible. We are not interested in seeing the non-German population
multiply...We must use every means to install in the population the idea
that it is harmful to have several children, the expenses that they
cause and the dangerous effect on woman's health... It will be necessary
to open special institutions for abortions and doctors must be able to
help out there in case there is any question of this being a breach of
their professional ethics."

Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, expressed a
similar objective about eliminating US colored people in a letter she
wrote only months after Hitler's invasion of Poland: "We should hire
three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service
backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful
educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We
don't want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro
population and the minister is the man who can straighten out that
idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members."

Today, Planned Parenthood and other international promoters of
abortion, sterilization, and contraception, often claim that the
availability of such services is a "health issue" and is necessary to
fight poverty, echoing Hitler's slogans.

The article, "Doctors, Pregnancy, Childbirth and Abortion during the
Third Reich," which appeared in the March issue of the Israel Medical
Association Journal, shows that Hitler facilitated and promoted
abortion and sterilization for "inferior genetic stock" while
simultaneously practicing "positive eugenics" by prohibiting most
abortions and sterilizations of "Aryan" German women. This practice
reflected the same reasoning behind Margaret Sanger's famous slogan
"more from the fit, less from the unfit".

In 1942 and 1943, the Nazis implemented mandatory abortion programs in
some ghettos. "The punishment for giving birth and for delivering the
infant was death for the whole family and for the Jewish doctor or
midwife," writes Chelouche. In the concentration camps, however,
"pregnant women were usually sent to their immediate deaths upon
arrival just because they were pregnant."

Chelouche's also notes that the German sterilization program led
easily to a program of mass murder of unwanted groups. "During the
five and a half years preceding the outbreak of the Second World War,
about 320,000 German persons with 'lives unworthy of life' were
sterilized under the terms of the sterilization law," she writes.

"The victims of this sterilization program were asylum inmates, ethnic
majorities, servants, prostitutes, unmarried mothers, unskilled
workers and others. This sterilization campaign was a direct prelude
to mass murder: the prohibition against bearing 'unworthy children'
was expanded into the 'euthanasia' programs, beginning with the murder
of some 5000 children, and then into the infamous T4 'euthanasia'
program in which some 350,000 German adults were killed under the
disguise of euthanasia."

Chelouche concludes with a profound question: "Who can confront the
Holocaust and not be put on alert to evaluate scientific paradigms and
the implications for public policy that flow from them, so that what
we, as medical professionals and as human beings, want and identify as
good, will be for the sake of respecting and saving human life? They
too asked and answered the question: who shall live and who shall die?
Then and now the subject at hand is killing, letting die, helping to
die, and using the dead. Then and now the goal is to produce healthier
human beings."

Dr. Tessa Chelouche is a physician with Clalit Health Services, in the
Shomron District in Israel, and is affiliated with the Sackler Faculty
of Medicine, Tel Aviv University, Ramat Aviv, Israel.
