✡︎ Shalom and Good Shabbos Friends ✡︎
We created our May flyer to focus on the obvious injustice of abortion that was brought into public view from a discovery of late term babies found in a medical waste bin outside of a DC abortion center. We thank all the publishers who ran this ad for us even as Jewish media has a field day covering the NCJW Jewish Rally for Abortion Justice that took place just a few blocks from the infamous abortion center.
The news articles and opinion pieces continue to fill news outlets with mostly immoral, selfish or misguided social concerns as reasons to kill the 99+% of innocent children who pose no threat to their mother's life. Baruch HaShem for several intelligent op-eds and commentary offered by righteous rabbis in Jewish and pro-life publications, which we share in this newsletter.
It is no surprise, but nevertheless shameful, that this week's horrifying school shooting in Texas allows those who promote child killing an opportunity to virtue signal their concerns for the safety and protection of children - the same children whose existence in the womb just a few years before would have been determined to be valueless except for a line item in the profit/loss statement of the abortion center that would have killed them.
The NCJW is the most vocal among Jewish organizations to call for legislation that they determine will save children's lives. These promoters of child killing can't call for an end to abortion as a way to stop senseless murder because doing so will destroy their reputations and self serving agendas. They are the most vocal because they have to drown out their consciences and the awakening spirit of those who idolize them and donate money upon which their lifestyle and unholy causes depend.
We close this edition with a webinar hosted by AAPLOG, The American Association of Pro-Life OBGYNs, in which these truly dedicated physicians discuss the medical issues about abortion before Roe and looking forward to after Roe. I urge you to watch this excellent presentation.
Cecily
May there be abundant peace from Heaven, and good life upon us and upon all Israel. Amen.

The most egregious article published by the JTA and the Jerusalem Post was authored by an 'Orthodox' rabbi and his female counterpart, who make a great effort to justify unnecessary child killing based on nuanced, ie., fanciful, Halachic interpretations to assuage any ethical dilemmas that may occur. We are blessed to offer responsive counter opinions by two righteous Orthodox rabbis who uncover the false assumptions and illogical reasoning within the article. Thank you Rabbi Avrohom Gordimer and Rabbi Chananya Weissman!
Overturning Roe would be an unconscionable infringement on the religious freedom of Orthodox Jews

Baruch HaShem that two more righteous, forthright Orthodox rabbis recently spoke out against child killing. These two rabbis very clearly disagree with the heretical declaration that Jewish law allows mass killing of innocent babies in the womb. Thank you Rabbi Yaakov Menken and Rabbi Dovid Smith! |

Rabbi David Bleich welcomes the reversal of Roe and suggests that a fund be established to cover the costs of abortion limited to women who produce a statement signed by a recognized posek(a rabbi who decides about a point of Jewish law) attesting to the halakhic propriety of the procedure. While we respect Rabbi Bleich's view on rabbinical decisions in the area, we must point out that many otherwise learned rabbis remain woefully ignorant of medical advances capable of saving the mother's and the baby's life. After abortion, women suffer acute and chronic spiritual, emotional and mental problems. Many rabbis minimize these major difficulties and know little about how to treat them. We wonder, too, if most rabbis understand exactly how unborn babies are killed during abortion procedures, gruesome and painful deaths that ought be ordered only in the most life threatening circumstances, not for mental health reasons or pressure from family members. Instead of condemning innocent children to death and putting women at risk from abortion, rabbis could Institute Respect Life groups in synagogues whose members rally around women facing difficulty and help meet their needs during pregnancy and afterwards. Rabbinical training should cover abortion related issues, including information about the dangers of abortion and its aftermath, how to develop Respect Life groups, and up to date medical facts from pro-life OBGYNs who can advise about genuine life threatening cases. This training would help rabbis make informed decisions regarding abortion that preserve life, women's health and safety, and family integrity. |
