Abortion and euthanasia are thus crimes which no human law can claim to legitimize. There is no obligation in conscience to obey such laws; instead there is a grave and clear obligation to oppose them by conscientious objection.
The Wall Street Journal once printed an article titled the "Dutch Way of Death". The Dutch had a murder rate six times that of the U.S.

You mean murder of the born as in crime statistics? Doesn't seem to be the case:

US 5.7 (per 100,000 population in 2006, steady)
Netherlands 0.97 (per 100,000 population in 2002, falling from 1.42 in 2000; more recent data not available)

List of countries by intentional homicide rate

This source has it 4.2 and 1.1.

Unless it spiked in recent years, stratospherically.
