Abortion is illegal in Muslim countries. And in Mexico.

This 13% rate of abortion to conception in Israel, in the article, is well under the some 25% rate in the USA since 1973.

Most people estimate the rate of illegal abortions in Israel at 40% to 50% of the legal abortion rate, not the 100% mentioned in the article, for a total rate in the high teens. The legal rate, though, is about half the US.

I can't locate the link to the UN worldwide state, but Johnstons Archive has a pretty good set of tables at Abortion statistics and other data which do include estimates for some countries, like Turkey, with large Islamic populations.
