I'm not so sure about that. I don't think it is wise for us as a civilization to allow rape to be an option for perpetuating one's genetic structure. It's not the kid's fault, true, but it's not an innocent bystander's fault if a terrorist hides behind them either - the fault for the death lies with the rapist. (By the way, I do not think children of incest are equivalent.)

If we are going to allow rape to be an exception, the law must be closely tailored to severely punish those who would falsely claim rape, of course.

See thoughtomator, there are cases where women have falsely claimed rape just to save their reputations. As this situation may be rare, it has and will continue to happen. So, why would a woman stop at falsely accusing someone of rape, then get the abortion, with full knowledge of those kinds of ramifications. It won't, they will do it regardless. Their thought process is much too selfish and resentful towards the baby. This is why abortion should only be allowd in the case of peril to the mother.

What the hell does a "terrorist" have to do with any of it? Today, "terrorism" or "terrorist" seems to be thrown around as a handy dandy cover for just about anything.
