‘A New Dark Age’
By
Patrick J. Buchanan
“If
God does not exist, then everything is permissible.”
Ivan
Karamazov’s insight came to mind while watching the video of Deborah Nucatola
of Planned Parenthood describe, as she sipped wine and tasted a salad, how she
harvests the organs of aborted babies for sale to select customers.
“Yesterday
was the first time … people wanted lungs,” said Nucatola, “Some people want
lower extremities, too, which, that’s simple. …
“I’d
say a lot of people want liver. … We’ve been very good at getting heart, lung,
liver, because we know that, so I’m not gonna crush that part, I’m gonna
basically crush below, I’m gonna crush above, and I’m gonna see if I can get it
all intact.”
Nucatola
is describing how an unborn baby should be killed and cut up to preserve its
most valuable organs for sale by its butchers.
Welcome
to God’s Country, 2015.
Planned
Parenthood’s image — a progressive organization that provides free birth
control to women who seek to space pregnancies as they plan their families —
will not easily survive these tapes.
For
Nucatola sounds as though she were reading from a film script about a 1940s
clinic in Nazi Germany devoted to the disposal of “useless eaters” in the Third
Reich.
Watching
these tapes, one name comes to mind: Mengele.
Defenders
of Planned Parenthood argue that those who taped Nucatola did so
surreptitiously, and they misrepresented themselves as buyers from a human
biologics company. Moreover, the tapes were deceptively edited and the women
undergoing abortions had agreed to donate the organs of their dead fetuses for
biomedical research.
Perhaps.
But even if all of that is true, the tapes have thrown the “pro-abortion
rights” movement in America onto the defensive and brought calls for complete
Congressional defunding of a Planned Parenthood that receives $500 million
yearly from taxpayers.
Set
aside the legality of what Nucatola describes. Do Americans want hundreds of
millions of tax dollars provided to an organization that harvests and sells the
body parts of aborted babies as a potentially lucrative sideline business? Do Americans
want to be associated in any way with an organization with the moral mindset
exhibited by Nucatola?
That
Americans were stunned by those tapes is undeniable. People are not faking
their moral revulsion. Indeed, “pro-abortion rights” Democrats are hiding in
the weeds because they rightly sense that the disgust is widespread and
genuine.
Yet
there are questions raised by what these tapes reveal that apply to all of us.
Were
we really in the dark? Were we unaware that 55 million unborn have been killed
since Roe, many by such crushing methods as described by Nucatola?
Is
the Black Lives Matter movement unaware that the execution rate of babies in
the womb is highest among African-American women? However many black men or
boys are killed in clashes with cops each year, it is not one-tenth of 1
percent of the black babies aborted in the USA?
Did
we think that these abortions were almost all painless, like some sick pet
being put to sleep, euthanized? Did we not know that the abortionist stabs the
baby in the womb, or tears it to pieces coming out? And the more developed the
baby, the greater the pain and the suffering and the bloodier the inescapable
death?
But
if one believes an unborn baby is not a human being, not a human life, why
object to selling its body parts?
Trash
haulers and garbage men find uses for what they pick up. Scrap metal collectors
find folks who want to buy it. Conservation they call it. Why would we think
that abortionists, who regard fetuses as human tissue, not human beings, were
any different?
We
have long known and praised family members of the victims in auto accidents who
volunteer the organs of their loved ones to save or extend the lives of others.
What
makes this tape so different, so appalling, is that, at some level, there a
sense in all of us, which ideological indoctrination cannot wholly suppress,
that, morally, something terrible is happening here.
Listening
to that Planned Parenthood woman discourse casually on the hearts, livers,
lungs and lower extremities, we know something else. While the women undergoing
the abortions at Planned Parenthood may have volunteered those body parts, the
butchered children had no say in the decision to be torn to pieces and have
their organs put up for sale to a laboratory that was the highest bidder.
Speaking
after the fall of France, at the beginning of the Battle of Britain, Winston
Churchill said, “But if we fail, then the whole world … including all that we
have known and cared for, will sink into the abyss of a new Dark Age made more sinister,
and perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science.”
Those
phrases, “perverted science,” and “a new Dark Age,” do they not fairly describe
our future if the views and values of Nucatola’s Planned Parenthood are the
future of America and her people?
