 PASTOR SAEED (Iranian-born AMERICAN pastor) who months ago started an 8 year sentence for helping the underground churches in Iran) PLEASE PRAY FOR HIM DAILY.  LATEST Update - April  15 - 1)".. During the weekly prison visit today, Pastor Saeed's family reported that his physical condition is worsening - seeing first-hand the marks and symptoms left by the recent beating. These beatings and the internal injuries are causing Pastor Saeed frequent fainting spells.  Iranian officials are telling Pastor Saeed it could be an additional two months before he will receive medical treatment. Such a delay is inhumane and a gross violation of Iran’s international obligations. ...In addition to refusing to give Pastor Saeed the medical care he needs, it now appears authorities are stepping up their physical abuse and psychological torture. Pastor Saeed reported that cellmates, who appear to have connections to the Iranian intelligence police, recently threatened they would suffocate Pastor Saeed in his sleep, making his death look like an accident.  The daily threat that his life could be taken by his internal injuries or by the hands of cellmates, weighs heavily on Pastor Saeed. (http://aclj.org/iran/beatings-intensify-american-pastor-saeed-condition-worsens-in-iranian-prison PRAY that Pastor Saeed might finally receive the medical  treatment he needs. PRAY that God would reveal himself to the pastor's  tormenters and turn them to Christ. PRAY that his family, esp. his children, will experience His strength and special presence during this time. And finally, PRAY that , when  God has accomplished His will in Pastor Abedini's suffering, he will finally be released 2) More than 550,000 people  from 180 countries have signed the petition to Save Saeed. Your voice has moved the U.S., the European Union, and many others to call for his release. If you have not already, please join over 500,000! who have signed the petition  for Pastor Saeed's release and tell your friends about it.  http://aclj.org/iran/save-american-pastor-from-iranian-prison-sentence  ALSO, go to Save Saeed.org and add your name to those sending letters to him.

'Abortion doctor: late-term procedure is “like putting meat in a Crock-Pot”,'- by John Hayward, 5/8/2013 http://www.humanevents.com/2013/05/08/abortion-doctor-late-term-procedure-is-like-putting-meat-in-a-crock-pot/ [NOTE: Yeah, the words used in this article are graphic and sickening. But then sickening only begins to describe the horror that is abortion. Also, don't miss a related story in tomorrow's post (#523) - Stan]

The fourth undercover video in LiveAction’s “Inhuman” expose of late-term abortion brings us renowned abortionist Dr. LeRoy Carhart reassuring a pregnant woman that carrying a dead 26-week baby inside her womb for three days is no big deal.  ”It’s like putting meat in a Crock-Pot, OK?” he says. Carhart also jokes that his tools for dismembering and removing a dead child include “a pickaxe” and “a drill bit.”  When advising the woman to allow nothing into her vagina for three weeks after the procedure, he says, “As I tell everyone, that includes fingers, friends, and fruit, OK?”

The famed abortionist begins telling his patient that she’ll be affected emotionally and psychologically by the procedure… but then he tries to portray it as a positive life experience, dismissing the notion of post-abortion depression.  ”I think out of respect and love and honor for this baby that you’ve lost, you will find yourself being a better person,” he assures the woman.
This baby you’ve… lost?  Someone really ought to send this video to Kermit Gosnell.  He’d probably find it hilarious, and he could use some cheering up.



Dr. Carhart reassures the undercover filmmaker that he’s never had to send one of his patients to the hospital.  Tragically, two months after the first part of the Live Actionvideo was recorded, one of his patients died following a later-term abortion procedure, prompting an investigation.  One of the complaints against Carhart in the death of this patient, 29-year-old Jennifer Morbelli (and her 33-week baby) is that he “abandoned his patient by leaving the state and not answering calls for help,” according to the Washington Examiner. 

"Concerns have also been raised about the safety of the late-term abortion process itself since the surgical abortion process takes several days and requires patients to stay overnight in hotels without access to monitoring or emergency care even while experiencing active labor.A previous complaint filed by [Operation Rescue senior policy advisor Cheryl] Sullenger against Carhart resulted in a letter of admonishment being placed in his file by the MDBP after her allegations that he lied on his Maryland medical license application were found to have merit. Sullenger was also a complainant in the disciplinary case against a Kansas associate of Carhart’s, Ann Kristin Neuhaus, that resulted in the revocation of Neuhaus’ Kansas medical license last year after it was determined that she regularly provided Carhart and others with illegitimate late-term abortion referrals based on phony mental health excuses."

Like other late-term abortion doctors and clinic staffers profiled in the “Inhuman” series, Carhart frantically instructs his prospective patient not to call 911 if she goes into labor during the procedure, because “they’ll take you to the hospital, right?  They won’t bring you to the clinic, so…” Instead, he advises her to get in a car and drive to the clinic, or call him.  And this later segment of the video was made 7 weeks after Jennifer Morbelli’s death.  Put that in your Crock-Pot and slow-cook it.

These Live Action videos should be a shocking wake-up call for those who believe late-term abortions are treated with serious moral and intellectual gravity by clinic doctors and staff.  There’s no effort here to hold a sober discussion with the prospective patient about a momentous decision that will terminate a human life. The consequences are not accurately described.  This isn’t what the average person thinks is going on behind the doors of abortion clinics.
