Modern eugenics: Down syndrome ‘eradication’ in Iceland

(Worthy News) – A disturbing report from CBS News last week revealed Iceland is systemically aborting babies with Down syndrome. While some have hailed the news as a cultural advancement, pro-lifers note the so-called progress has only moved the country toward genocide.
