FETAL: Recalling Unit 731 research

From the mid-1930s to the end of World War II, the Japanese government had a research program called Unit 731, headed by Lt. Gen. Shiro Ishii. Wonderful gains in medicine would be made by this unit. Blood loss calculations, survivability without certain organs, and many more. Many of the experiments were vivisections done without anesthesia. One of their most notable achievements was frostbite treatment (for Japan was expecting another war with Russia). Limbs were frozen and then warmed back up in a variety of ways to study gangrene development and to establish proper warming procedures. These were done on prisoners mainly from Asia, who if not brought to Unit 731 would most likely have been executed.

Babies being aborted by Planned Parenthood are receiving the same gruesome treatment. No anesthesia as their limbs are removed, lives ended and organs harvested.

I am comforted (I’m being facetious) to know that the abortion industry is looking out for the advancement of science, since the babies are to be aborted anyway. So like Unit 731, maybe Planned Parenthood can help facilitate other medical advancements. After all, we now know that frostbite treatment is best done between 100-120 degrees. I ask you, do some methods breach our ethics of humanity?
