As I was reading this story all I could think is why are they thinking this is such a horrible thing?  We say they are just a choice, right?  We say it is okay for a woman to abort a wanted pregnancy because she finds out her child isn’t perfect.  So, why is using them for biological weapons so shocking?  It’s just the next natural step for the circular slippery slope, isn’t it?  Or perhaps once people realize these people deserve a chance to live based on this emotionally charged story we will start climbing up that slope instead of continuing the decline.  One can only hope.

But among the accounts (from military soldiers that escaped N. Korea) they carried with them is one of the most shocking yet to emerge — namely the use of humans, specifically mentally or physically handicapped children, to test North Korea’s biological and chemical weapons.

"If you are born mentally or physically deficient, says Im, the government says your best contribution to society… is as a guinea pig for biological and chemical weapons testing."

The former military captain says it was in the early 1990s, that he watched his then commander wrestle with giving up his 12-year-old daughter who was mentally ill.

The commander, he says, initially resisted, but after mounting pressure from his military superiors, he gave in.

Im watched as the girl was taken away. She was never seen again.

One of Im’s own men later gave him an eyewitness account of human-testing.

Asked to guard a secret facility on an island off North Korea’s west coast, Im says the soldier saw a number of people forced into a glass chamber.

"Poisonous gas was injected in," Im says. "He watched doctors time how long it took for them to die."

For those that support the right for a woman to abort just because the unborn child is disabled, you have no right to be shocked.  This is what you support, isn’t it?  The willful destruction of the unfit, the undesirable and the imbeciles.  Why does it matter how they get removed from this world? 

However, there is more going on in N. Korea that needs our attention too.

Today it is estimated the country has accumulated a stockpile of more than 5,000 tonnes of biochemical weaponry; from mustard gas, to nerve agents such as sarin, to anthrax and cholera.

The extent of the stockpile is a concern to Kim Sang-hun, a retired UN official who has spent years investigating the North’s chemical and biological weapons programme.

He believes over the past 20 years, the programme has advanced at a startling pace, specifically because the country’s rulers approve and support the use of human test subjects.

"Human experimentation is a widespread practice," Kim says.

I’m sure that is the part of the story that will cause the outrage.  They assumption that they are using socially acceptable people to test their weapons on.  But I digress.

Investigating what he says are serious UN violations regarding the rights of children and prisoners, Kim Sang-hun has amassed a vast amount of evidence.

Some bear what appear to be official government stamps approving the transfer of prisoners from camps to chemical "factories".

He says he believes these are, in reality, experimental weapons sites.

As the world’s attention focuses on the North’s nuclear programme, Im is worried the international community will miss what he believes is the more imminent threat posed by the country’s biochemical arsenal.

Arms experts say at least 30 per cent of North Korea’s missile and artillery systems are capable of delivering such weapons. With each successive test, they warn the North’s accuracy improves, and so too its range.

The UN Security Council now says it believes three of the seven missiles tested by the North on July 4 were Scud-ER missiles, which are known to be more accurate and have a range of 1,000km.

I wonder when the UN is actually going to stop scratching its butt and do something to help the N. Korean civilians?

**And 4th picture is of Payton Manning, the NFL quarterback for the Colts who has multiple NFL records and is statistically one of the greatest NFL quarterbacks of all time, was born with a Cleft.  Clefts are being targeted in multiple countries.  Even though aborting because of a cleft lip is technically illegal in the U.K. it is still being performed and there are lawsuits to stop this practice.  America has no such laws against aborting for cosmetic reasons. 

***Exactly how is any of the above any different from what N. Korea is doing?  We are just eliminating them slower than N. Korea.

There is but one practical and feasible program in handling the great problem of the feeble-minded. That is, as the best authorities are agreed, to prevent the birth of those who would transmit imbecility to their descendants. Feeble-mindedness as investigations and statistics from every country indicate, is invariably associated with an abnormally high rate of fertility. Modern conditions of civilization, as we are continually being reminded, furnish the most favorable breeding-ground for the mental defective, the moron, the imbecile.
