The liberals have really made life cheap. Hell, now it’s “FREE”. I know this is Israel but it still sickens me that another human being can be robbed of “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”
Do-it-yourself Holocaust.
Israel, of all places. This really surpises me. I mean, they mention the Holocaust at every opportunity; and then they sanction this, a holocaust of the most innocent among them?
They should cease mentioning the Holocaust at all after this.
Good thing that Israeli baby is already born I guess.
I predict Israel will end in a similar way, albeit much bloodier. There will be fighting in the streets of Tel Aviv, bloody massacres and gas attacks across the country, total Islamic control over Jerusalem...And in the end PA flags flying over the government buildings. America will do nothing, the media will cheer, and I'm afraid I won't be overly put out over it. Not after this.
God will not be mocked.
Very sad.
The Arabs must be celebrating this “progressive thinking” on the part of the Jews.
Very sad, indeed.
You have to remember that Muzzies and Leftist worship at the altar of Death and Destruction.
The more innocent the blood they take the better they feel.
It’s very much like the pagan cultures that sacrificed their children to Molech, some volcano god, or the gods the Maya worshiped.
A bunch of throwbacks if I ever did see.
I hope the rabbis take these murderers to task.
The decision also is bad for Jews in that there aren't many Jews in the first place.
For a country that is continually undermanned by its neighbors, this makes no sense.
Israel is subject to the same “progressive pressures” that USA is, especially on matters like this. It is a miracle that Israel has maintained a fairly conservative rule against most abortions. That was basically consistent with Jewish religious law, which begins with an anti-abortion stance and only makes exceptions in individual cases (always to save the life of the mother, occasionally for extremely serious birth defects, etc.)
Whether 6000 abortions would still fall within this (basically) pro-life religious law, remains to be seen. Perhaps that is what they are trying to accomplish, especially since that number of abortions is nothing near the number that would occur if Israel adopted the American “abortion on demand” policy.

(Keep in mind that some American Jews have largely abandoned their religious heritage in favor of a secularist approach to life. This is similar to may “liberal Protestants” and “cafeteria Catholics” in USA. Alas. But, the religious Jews continue to honor the Biblical, religious teachings... which are summarized fairly well in the above short article.)
For anyone wishing to help avert abortions in Israel, to actually do something tangibly positive instead of just typing commentary notes?.....this charity appears to have a very good reputation, check it out... (also a good example of what can be done anywhere in the world to help mothers keep their babies alive and avoid the abortion mills)...

It may be worthwhile to observe that the Obama regime is sponsoring both abortion on demand type “services” and the homosexual “lifestyle” all around the world, (not just in USA), .....including in countries whose predominant cultures are extremely hostile to these things. (A lot of our tax money is spent promoting or providing these things... the first thing I’d like to see is a cut-off of tax money going to “Planned Parenthood”... just my 2 cents worth....).
If this were CA, calls for death and destruction of the state would soon follow...
Most Jews and abortions
The fruit of neglecting what they were specially given
What a shame
And self destructive morally......and practically
Completely undermines “L’Chaim”.
God does not sanction this.
How utterly NON-Jewish, if you're talking religion, which these people clearly are not. If you are a faithful Jew, how could you support abortion, when you're waiting for the Messiah to be born? How can you know which unborn child is the Messiah, and why would you gamble that He would die as a result of this political decision?
Expect the pregnancy and abortion rates to both skyrocket.
Many women get pregnant because of the ease with which they can get abortions. If they are both easy to get and “free”, there is no incentive to use contraceptives. And when you give a woman the message that her child is subhuman and it can be killed for convenience—you basically are telling that woman that *she* is worthless. We already see that wherever abortion is legal and common.
(I don’t mean “you” personally, I am using it as a non-specific pronoun.)
Dr. Eli Schussheim, chairman of the pro-life group Efrat, compared the decision to theft, saying that by allocating funding for non-medically necessary abortions, the committee is stealing from sick people and giving the money instead as a prize to 6,000 negligent women.
That right there is the best statement EVER. With all the methods of birth control out there, a woman who becomes pregnant accidentally, unless raped, is negligent. And a dope.
Pre-immolate.
