Dr. George Tiller, one of the few physicians in the United States who
performed late term abortions was murdered Sunday in the foyer of his
church in Kansas. He is the eighth abortion provider murdered in the US
since 1977
and his death is indicative of a larger assault on health
clinics and providers who offer reproductive services, including
abortion. Jennifer Pozner says that such actions are really cases of
textbook terrorism and need to be identified as such.
