American Citizens Deceived

• ​Dr. Bernard Nathanson deceived Americans into supporting legalizing abortion using an 8 point propaganda campaign. As a highly regarded New York OB/GYN physician, Dr. Nathanson became the medical face of abortion, and executed the propaganda campaign with precision. 

​

• Dr. Nathanson joined with Lawrence Lader and founded the National Association for the Repeal of Abortion Laws (NARAL – today known at NARAL Pro-Choice America) to be the leading advocate for legalized abortion.​

• NARAL used Dr. Nathanson's influence as a medical doctor to make the information he and NARAL shared with the media and elsewhere seem credible. ​

• NARAL hired a public relations firm to develop the strategy to appeal to the American spirit of individualism, freedom, and compassion. 

​​

• NARAL framed the debate around “choice” and relied upon the complicit media to repeat NARAL’s false statistics and false “facts.” ​

​​

• The propaganda campaign was based upon lies. 

• At the time NARAL began its propaganda campaign, only 1/10 of 1% of Americans wanted abortion on demand to be legalized. (The Abortion Papers, 1986 p. 196)  Dr. Nathanson and NARAL lied to the media by reporting that 60% of Americans wanted abortion on demand legalized. ​

• Dr. Nathanson and NARAL claimed that there were 1,000,000 back-alley abortions and 5,000 to 10,000 women dying due to complications of abortion.  The accurate statistics were about 100,000 illegal abortions and  200 women dying. These false statistics created a false crisis!

• NARAL and Dr. Nathanson considered the Catholic Church a primary source of opposition to legalized abortion. They devised the "Catholic Strategy" which Dr. Nathanson called, "the most brilliant political strategy of all time" to break down Catholic opposition to abortion. The stealthy strategy was successful and remains successful today as many American Catholic politicians and voters continue to mouth one of NARAL's mantras for Catholics: I am personally against abortion, but would not deny women the choice to abort. This is known as the "Catholic Straddle." 

​​

• In 1973, Dr. Nathanson, by then known as the "Abortion King," saw a live, thriving baby for the first time on real-time ultrasound just a few months after the Supreme Court cases of Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton. ​

​

• Ultimately, the science of real time ultra-sound changed the cofounder of NARAL’s mind about abortion. 

​

• Dr. Nathanson, once he was pro-life, compared NARAL to a “Stalinist” organization because the truth that abortion murders a living human being did not matter to NARAL's Board of Directors.

​

• Dr. Nathanson would later write, "I helped nurture the creature in its infancy by feeding it great draughts of blood and money; I guided it through its adolesence as it grew fecklessly out of control." (The Hand of God, p. 4)

​

• Dr. Nathanson identified himself as the "Keeper of the Abortion Industry Keys."​

​

• The culture of death was well underway.
