[Avodah] Shapiro Gives Fiery, Unprecedented Assault On Abortion On His Fox News Special

[Prof. Levine]

IMO many people do not really understand the implications of an 
abortion.  I certainly did not fully grasp this until I saw Ben 
Shapiro's take on abortion. YL

Ben Shapiro is a conservative commentator who is 
Orthodox.  Indeed,  he proudly wears a yarmulka all of the time when 
he speaks and is being interviewed.


On Sunday, at the conclusion of the latest edition of The Ben Shapiro 
Election Special on the Fox News Network, Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief 
Ben Shapiro used the last segment of the show to mount a powerful 
assault on abortion that was unlike any seen on a network news show 
before. Shapiro showed pictures from ultrasounds and illustrations of 
babies at various stages in utero to support his case, aware that 
when women see ultrasounds of the babies they are carrying, they are 
much less likely to consider having an abortion.


Shapiro then reached the apex of his argument:

Human life is a continuous process of growth, from the moment of 
fertilization onward. Abortion is the killing of this human life. The 
later the abortion takes place, the more brutal the procedure, but no 
matter the brutality of the procedure, it is obvious that abortion is 
not some mere optional surgery to be performed for convenience. And 
it?s even more obvious that those who want to protect the lives of 
the unborn aren?t trying to control women?s bodies.

Those who cherish abortion are trying to control and dismember the 
bodies of the unborn. Think about that next time you see a radical 
feminist in a Handmaid's Tale outfit suggesting that you?d better 
respect her right to carve apart an unborn baby in the womb or you?re 
some sort of fascist.

No more euphemisms.
