AUSTRALIA: 'BABIES BORN ALIVE' BILL RE-INTRODUCED TO PROTECT CHILDREN BORN ALIVE AFTER FAILED ABORTIONS: ALLEGED NEWS

AUSTRALIA: "BABIES BORN ALIVE" BILL WAS RE-INTRODUCED TO PROTECT CHILDREN BORN ALIVE AFTER FAILED ABORTIONS: ALLEGED NEWS. [1] The goal of this bill is to ensure that a child who is born alive because of a failed abortion procedure is entitled to the same level of medical care and treatment as any other new-born child, Alleged News. [1]

Queensland

Queensland Health Guidelines as on April 21, 2023 for termination of pregnancy are reportedly as follows: point 5.4.3 under the heading of 'Other fetal considerations', Table 23 details what is to happen in the case of a live birth, Alleged News; 

'Do not provide life sustaining treatment, e.g. gastric tubes, IV lines, oxygen therapy', Alleged News. [1] 

Babies left to die

Johanna Howe, Associate Professor in Law at the University of Adelaide, said, "In Victoria and Queensland in the last 10 years, 724 babies have been born alive and I hate to say it, but actually left to die. They have no rights to medical treatment, no rights to palliative care," Alleged News. [1]

Thus the bill seeks to offer medical care to babies born alive after failed abortion.

Bill voted down

In September 2023, Western Australia's Upper House voted down the 'Babies Born Alive' bill which would offer rights to survivors of abortion, Alleged News. [2]

THE SONS OF THUNDER

 

                                                           https://youtu.be/flh7YFwmoMw

God is calling us each day to be bearers of love and light to the world. Any believer who is serious about following the ways of God can attest that this is not an easy task. James and John - the "sons of thunder" had their own path to walk towards holiness. 

Here is part of their story.

SOUTH AFRICA: VOTERS HEAD TO THE POLLS ON 29 MAY 2024. VOTE PROLIFE!

SOUTH AFRICA: VOTERS ARE DUE TO HEAD TO THE POLLS ON 29 MAY 2024 FOR GENERAL ELECTIONS. 

VOTE PROLIFE!

Abortion is a tragic issue which has affected many in the beautiful land of South Africa. On 1 February 1997 abortion-on-demand was legalized in South Africa. By 2024 an estimated two million babies in South Africa had lost their lives through abortion, mostly with taxpayers' money. [1] This loss of life has left devastation in its wake. Nationwide demonstrations against the abortion law have swept the country over past years as pro-lifers repeatedly marched to Parliament. People from Worcester, Velddrift, Hermanus, Malmesbury, Durbanville, Belville, Klipjeville, Cape Town, Kroonstad, Bloemfontein, Durban, East London, Pretoria, as well as many others areas have protested the abortion law over the past few years. [1], [2], [3], [4]. [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12], [13].

Protests at abortion clinics

Protests at abortion clinics have been widespread throughout the country, such as the protests at Marie Stopes Clinic in Cape Town [2] and Pretoria [9]. 

National Alliance for Life

National Alliance for Life (NAL) is a platform for pro-life organizations, churches and individuals to be heard. This vibrant platform is strongly supported by pro-lifers in South Africa and further afield. An NAL conference pamphlet affirmed that "We must take a stand against the killing of children until it (abortion) is abolished." [13]

Dr de Vos

Dr Jacques de Vos faced charges for allegedly telling a pregnant woman that 'her fetus was a human being' and that an abortion kills an unborn human, Alleged News. [14] Dr de Vos lost his employment and was banned from practising medicine, Alleged News. [14] He was only a week away from finishing his medical degree, Alleged News. [14] Protests regarding the fate of Dr de Vos spread from South Africa to Kenya, Alleged News. [15] More than 19,000 signatures from African citizens - concerned about the fate of pro-life Dr Jacques de Vos - were delivered to High Commissioner Thembela Ngculu at his Nairobi office; Alleged News. [15] In 2022, Dr de Vos was cleared to practise again after a five-year ban, Alleged News. [16]

Forced sterilisations at hospitals

In South Africa, at least 15 hospitals and 48 staff were involved in coerced or forced sterilisation of women living with HIV/Aids, Alleged News. [17] A report by the Commission for Gender Equality in South Africa investigated reported cases and found that staff at the hospitals were party to gross human rights violations, as well as those of reproductive rights, Alleged News. [17] 

Abortion without consent

Buyiselwa Daweti said her horrific ordeal with a private hospital in Cosmo City in 2002 inspired her to fight for reproductive health rights and awareness, especially for vulnerable women sterilised against their will, Alleged News. [17]

"I had an abortion without my consent, which is in line with [forced] sterilisation, based on a lie by a doctor, who said my twins were not growing. He gave me tablets stating he wanted the twins to grow. The next day, I had a miscarriage which I thought was natural," Daweti said; Alleged News. [17]

Forced sterilisations

The Commission for Gender Equality (CGE), a Chapter 9 institution, released its report on 24 February 2020  revealing how hospitals forced and coerced women to agree to being sterilised, Alleged News. [17] The cases of violated women date back to 2001, Alleged News. [17] Some of the women made to sign sterilisation agreements while in severe pain only learned later from private gynaecologists that their fallopian tubes had been cut during labour, Alleged News. [17] 

Learned during labour

Other women learned during labour that they would be sterilised, allegedly after hospital doctors told them women with HIV should not have children, Alleged News. [17] The CGE found that the women were made to sign forms under duress, as they were threatened with not being assisted with caesarean procedures they needed: Alleged News. [17]

Call to stop illegal abortion advertisements

Director Justin Jones noted that "you cannot drive anywhere in a South African city these days without seeing illegal posters selling prophets, potions . . . Then there are also the ones that are selling things like "quick abortions" . . . which are inevitably done by unlicensed practitioners in unsafe conditions." 

"When the various posters are analysed, it becomes noticeably clear as to why the originator or owner uses the illegal (guerilla type) approach to advertise.

The practises they are advertising are normally illegal, and they are preying on the poor, the desperate and the marginalised." [18]

Outrage against backstreet abortions - public protest

Protest marches took to the streets in South Africa as outrage against backstreet abortions continued to grow. [19] Deputy Health Minister Dr Sibongiseni Dhlomo, accompanied by Gauteng Health MEC Dr Nomathemba Mokgethi and Ekurhuleni Mayor Tania Campbell, led a march against illegal and unsafe abortions, Alleged News. [19] 

Dead foetuses litter the streets

Most of the numbers of unidentified infant bodies received by the Johannesburg Forensic Pathology Services (FPS) medico-legal mortuary in Braamfontein are foetuses; Alleged News. [19] They are abandoned - discarded around the city, Alleged News. [19] Foetal osteologist Roxanne Thornton works with these deceased infants, Alleged News. [19] The dead babies come in as viable foetuses (more than 26 weeks), and as non-viable foetuses (those who would not survive outside the womb), Alleged News. [19] (The viable foetuses are thus dead preborn infants of more than six-and-a-half months, Alleged News.) 

Osteologist Thornton said many of the abandoned foetuses are illegal abortion cases, mostly stillborn and abandoned; Alleged News. [19] Osteologist Thornton said, "I work with foetal prenatal bones. The goal is to prove the case forensically. The reason I do this is because there are hardly any inquests for the dumped [foetuses] - they don't get investigated and they are forgotten. This is an injustice.

"I believe these children should have a voice. A lot are dumped just around the corner from a shelter or abortion clinic," Alleged News. [19] 

Pro-lifer received conviction

In February 2013, Mr Peter Throp received a conviction for damaging property by placing pro-life stickers over illegal abortion stickers, Alleged News. [19] Mr Throp received sentence of a fine of R5 000 or three months imprisonment, suspended for five years, Alleged News. [19] In March 2014, the Cape Town High Court upheld Mr Throp's appeal; Alleged News. [19]

15% of maternal deaths due to abortion complications

Unsafe, illegal pregnancy terminations lead to 15% of South Africa's maternal deaths, Alleged News. [19] According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in South Africa 15% of maternal deaths are due to abortion complications, Alleged News. [19]

Abortion is legal for children in South Africa

On December 11, 1996, South Africa enacted the Choice on Termination of Pregnancy Act. This Act gives women of any age or marital status access to abortion services upon request during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy, and, in certain cases, extends access to the first 20 weeks of pregnancy. [19] Currently, in South Africa, children are legally barred from drinking alcohol and from driving cars until they are 18 years of age. [19]

In South Africa, children between 12-14 years of age are being granted abortions, many of them without their parents' knowledge. [19]

Over 10,000 babies are abandoned in South Africa every year

Every year, over 10 000 babies are abandoned in South Africa, with the majority of them found dead, Alleged News. [20] Director Nadine Grabham said, "A lot of babies are abandoned due to failed abortions. Born alive, only to die from unsafe abandonment," Alleged News. [20] 

Sadness in South Africa

The introduction of abortion-on-demand in 1997 made abortion legal in South Africa. Instead of backstreet abortions becoming less, they have - alongside legal abortions - proliferated to the point that illegal stickers advertising abortion are a common sight in South Africa. Dead babies have been discarded in the streets, such as the eleven foetuses found in a bucket at a taxi rank in Mdantsane, Eastern Cape; Alleged News. [21] There had been speculation that the foetuses could have originated from a local clinic, Alleged News. [21] 

Every abortion causes the death of an innocent child

Dr Claude Newbury of Pro-Life South Africa wrote the following, "Every abortion, legal or illegal, causes the death of a totally innocent, helpless unborn child." [22]
