During an interview on NBC’s Today show, radical feminist Gloria Steinem, promoted an update of her decades-old book from the eighties. Ever the advocate for unrestrained abortion, Steinem compared Adolf Hitler to modern-day pro-lifers. She noted Hitler closed abortion centers and maintained strong laws against it. The truth is, he was against abortion of German women because he wanted them to build the master race. But Nuremburg Trial Records show he encouraged and even forced abortion on women of so-called undesirable races to keep them from reproducing. History also documents his zealous support of infanticide and euthanasia on those he called unfit. In the abortion debate, it’s not the pro-lifers that Hitler resembles.
