PP is Likely Keeping Some Aborted Babies Alive for parts
[Lifenews.com] Dr. Theresa Deisher is a world-renowned scientist in the field of stem cell research who holds patents after discovering adult stem cells in human hearts. Deisher helped the pro-life activists who spent three years recording undercover videos and capturing documents and information showing the Planned Parenthood abortion business selling aborted babies and their body parts.

Now, in a new interview, Deisher says she has reviewed the information the activists collected and she is making a shocking claim that Planned Parenthood may be keeping some babies alive after the abortion procedure in order to better collect their organs for harvesting -- such as their hearts.
Appears we're getting to the crux of 'Partial Birth abortions.'

#1  Memo from HQ:

When harvesting organs for auction...
Er, choosing the safe, legal option,
It's such a distortion
To call it "abortion" --
Please use the term "partial adoption."

I wouldn't put it past them.

#5  Interesting link Besoeker. Makes one wonder if there is a 'new slave house' where baby parts are bred by willing, or unwilling, mothers.

Kind of like Axlotl Tanks for the breeding of baby parts for profit.

#6  If true, this will suffice to end PP.

#7  Post-Modern Temples of Human Sacrifice.

Only thing missing is some bombastic asshole chanting about this being a deity's preference. Maybe add some Olde Time shit like, this will keep the oceans from rising and the earth catching fire.

#6 If true, this will suffice to end PP.

It should, but...

My faith in our institutions is at an all time low.


This is an era in which the kakistocrats glory in their own crapulence and expect adulation for it.

And they often get it.

#10  call it what it is : murder

Works for me. Much to my discomfort.

#11  This is so incredibly offensive that anyone steps up to defend these ghouls - and send them money, mcuh less public money. Money is fungible.

This is deliberate, premeditated human sacrifice for money. It is evil - and so are its practicioners.

There is no excuse to stand on the sidelines anymore. either speak up, or consider youyrself complict.

Hameed Gul
[DAWN] PERHAPS no other ISI chief had such a deep and lasting impact on the military-civilian relationship as Hameed Gul, who died over the weekend in Murree.

Appointed by Zia ul Haq
...the creepy-looking former dictator of Pakistain. Zia was an Islamic nutball who imposed his nutballery on the rest of the country with the enthusiastic assistance of the nation's religious parties, which are populated by other nutballs. He was appointed Chief of Army Staff in 1976 by Prime Minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, whom he hanged when he seized power. His time in office was a period of repression, with hundreds of thousands of political rivals, minorities, and journalists executed or tortured, including senior general officers convicted in coup-d'état plots, who would normally be above the law. As part of his alliance with the religious parties, his government helped run the war against the Soviets in Afghanistan, providing safe havens, American equipiment, Saudi money, and Pak handlers to selected mujaheddin. Zia died along with several of his top generals and admirals and the then United States Ambassador to Pakistain Arnold Lewis Raphel when he was assassinated in a suspicious air crash near Bahawalpur in 1988...
as ISI chief in 1987, Gul played a big role in organising the anti-Soviet resistance in Afghanistan during its last years and later followed it up by conceptualising and spreading a 'jihadi' worldview, the consequences of which are still with us.

His insight into all facets of the Afghan 'jihad' was legendary, and he put to good use his superb knowledge of the rivalries and hostilities among the principal bully boy leaders.

His removal as chief of the premier spy agency by Benazir Bhutto
... 11th Prime Minister of Pakistain in two non-consecutive terms from 1988 until 1990 and 1993 until 1996. She was the daughter of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, founder of the Pakistain People's Party, who was murdered at the instigation of General Ayub Khan. She was murdered in her turn by person or persons unknown while campaigning in late 2007. Suspects include, to note just a few, Baitullah Mehsud, General Pervez Musharraf, the ISI, al-Qaeda in Pakistain, and her husband, Asif Ali Zardari, who shows remarkably little curiosity about who done her in...
in 1989 didn't dampen his passions for turning this country into the bastion of an international 'jihad' whose consequences for Pakistain's state and society seemed to have escaped his attention.

A dedicated soldier, he saw no contradiction in combining his professional duties with covert political activity that aimed at destabilising and overthrowing elected governments.

He didn't hide his contempt for politicians, thought they were incapable of sharing his concept of an international 'jihad' and, yet, had no qualms of conscience in collaborating with the politicians of his choice. That he had supporters within the armed forces goes without saying, for he was one of three generals -- the others being Mirza Aslam Beg
...the occasionally incoherent retired four-star general who was the Chief of Army Staff of the Mighty Pak Army, succeeding the creepy General Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq, after the latter was rubbed out died in an air crash in 1988. The general was involved up to his hairy ears in the Mehran bank scandal, shuffling millions in public money to buy or lease politicians, and is believed one of the prime movers in the sale of Pak nuclear technology to Iran. He ranks second only to Hamid Gul in the volume and flavor of his anti-Western vitriol..
and Asad Durrani -- who helped create the IJI, an anti-Benazir alliance.

Gul later had the courage to admit his many mistakes, including the formation of the IJI. He apologised to the nation in 2006. No other general has done so.

Hameed Gul is dead but his legacy lives on, for 'jihadi' organizations not only exist and continue to kill Paks, they still have sympathisers in the armed forces as the attacks on the GHQ, Mehran base and the naval dockyards show.

Many of the banned
...the word banned seems to have a different meaning in Pakistain than it does in most other places. Or maybe it simply lacks any meaning at all...
organization
s still operate freely, and more regretfully the retired generals indicted by the Supreme Court are yet to face trial.

#1  So satisfying to know that he is truly dead, and no doubt surprised to find himself in the depths of Hell instead of Paradise. Enjoy eternity, General Hamid Gul, ret'd!

Home Front: Culture Wars
Mark Levin: Congress can end 'Birth Right' citizenship without amending the Constitution.
[Right Scoop] Mark Levin explained birthright citizenship in the opening of his show tonight and why Congress can end it without having to amend the Constitution.

Listen:

Little wonder the beltway establishment of both parties is vehemently against ending the 'anchor baby' loophole. It's a big government force multiplier that the Founders could have never envisioned.

#1  Not.
Posted by: Procopius2k || 08/19/2015 8:38 Comments || Top||

#2  Remember, the American people want the border controlled, the oligarchs don't. The American people generally did not want gay marriage (see state plebiscites), the oligarchs wanted it. The American people in general want the death penalty, the oligarchs don't and have been sabotaging it for over two generations. You get what the oligarchs want you to have, bread, games, and tech gadgets.

#3  You make it sound like a Commie Plot, P2k.

Yeah, I remember seeing The Manchurian Candidate.
