...articles "Nazi-like" and compared it to "chemical warfare on children." The new study, published in the Journal Wednesday, says that doctors can quickly and safely induce abortions by using a combination of two other drugs to produce the effect of the controversial French abortion pill RU-486. Although 66 violent incidents occurred at U.S. abortion clinics this year, Terry, who delivered his diatribe by fax, shrugged off suggestions his comments could be incendiary.
