Abortion As Terrorism?

Is abortion terrorism? The Catholic Archbishop Angelo Amato, secretary of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith said on Monday,

The Vatican's second-highest ranking doctrinal official on Monday forcefully branded homosexual marriage an evil and denounced abortion and euthanasia as forms of "terrorism with a human face." . . . . . . . . . .

After denouncing "abominable terrorism" such as that carried out by suicide bombers, he condemned what he called "terrorism with a human face," and accused the media of manipulating language "to hide the tragic reality of the facts."

"For example, abortion is called 'voluntary interruption of pregnancy' and not the killing of a defenseless human being, an abortion clinic is given a harmless, even attractive, name: 'centre for reproductive health' and euthanasia is blandly called 'death with dignity'," he said in his address.

I had never thought of abortion in this light. The worldnet dictionary by Princeton states terrorism this way:

the calculated use of violence (or the threat of violence) against civilians in order to attain goals that are political or religious or ideological in nature; this is done through intimidation or coercion or instilling fear

Is it violent? Is there fear? The answer is yes. If your not sure about this check out this video of a live abortion. The first couple parts explain the details of what's going on before going into the abortion itself. I have to give a warning.... this is pretty gruesome to watch but it's reality.

Abortion is ideological, it's planned out, there is mis information, there is violence, and there is fear. I have to say, I agree with Archbishop Angelo Amato.
