Secret files menace doctors

By Skipp Porteous

In preparation for the day when they hope abortion 
rights will be outlawed, the American Coalition of 
Life Activists (ACLA) has launched its so-called "Nuremberg 
Files Project." "The goal of the project," according 
to David Crane, the group's national director, "will 
be to gather all available information on abortionists 
and their accomplices for the day when they may be 
formally charged and tried at Nuremberg-type trials 
for their crimes. The information in these files will 
be specifically that kind of evidence admissible in 
a court of law." He added, "The Project will set up 
several secret archives which will be safe from seizure 
by those who would allow criminal child-killers to 
go free."

"We don't want to make the mistakes that allowed so 
many Nazis to escape justice after World War II," said 
Paul deParrie, one of the assistants involved in the 
project. "We intend to have extensive files on each 
of them which will permit prosecutors to easily identify 
the criminal perpetrators and bring the appropriate 
judgment against them."

The Nuremberg Files Project was announced at the ACLA's 
conference in Arlington, Virginia held from January 
20-22, 1996. Activists from Wisconsin, Oregon, Washington, 
Virginia, North Carolina, District of Columbia, Missouri, 
Ohio, California, Texas, Tennessee, Colorado, Indiana, 
and New Hampshire attended the conference.

On the conference's first night, Crane outlined "the 
ACLA plan to end abortion." He said the ACLA has two 
primary focuses. First, "to identify and expose" to 
the general public and neighbors doctors who perform 
abortions. Second, to help local groups close abortion 
clinics. In that regard, the ACLA publishes "reward" 
posters offering local activists and groups cash rewards 
for their anti-abortion activities. For every doctor 
they convince to stop providing abortions, a $500 reward 
is presented by ACLA. If a clinic is closed, the reward 
is $1,000. 

Last year the ACLA published a poster called "the deadly 
dozen." According to Crane, "It exposed 12 abortionists 
nationwide. The media and the federal government called 
it a 'hit list.' Some of the abortionists were even 
tracked down on their vacations and told that they 
were put on a hit list. So, what we could probably 
never accomplish with our exposure campaign, the government 
did for us very effectively! We do praise God for that. 
Like in the Scripture where 'the wicked flee and no 
man pursueth, but the righteous are as bold as lions,' 
we've seen a fear in the hearts of the wicked."

Crane also mentioned Planned Parenthood's one billion-dollar 
lawsuit against the ACLA and other anti-abortion groups 
and leaders. "It's humorous, and what's exciting about 
it is that it's a good sign that we must be doing something 
right if Planned Parenthood is willing to spend this 
kind of energy and considers us a threat. We take that 
as a green light to keep doing what we're doing. It 
will take a couple of years before a trial ever takes 
place, if at all."

Crane also outlined the ACLA's so-called "statements 
of truth." He said "our statements of truth is our 
contract with the American abortion industry. It has 
five points." He listed them:

_
Undeniable truths concerning abortion and equality 
of life.
Equal protection under the law.
Abortion is murder. Includes abortive birth control 
methods widely used by Christians all across our nation. 

Crime and punishment. The Bible requires capital punishment 
for murder. The civil magistrates should bear the sword 
against all persons intentionally involved in the murder 
of unborn children. 
Repentance and judgment. God's forgiveness through 
Jesus Christ extends to all who will repent. Those 
who won't repent for their involvement in the murder 
of unborn children through abortion are under God's 
condemnation and will suffer eternal punishment. 
_

"Our plan of action," Crane said, "has not been done 
before on several points." Again, he listed them:

_
Remove the beam from our own eyes. We will bring the 
irrefutable truth of life at conception to the church 
and encourage Christian leaders to stand firmly against 
abortifacients used widely by ignorant or rebellious 
Christians. We're hoping to develop a brochure to communicate 
very strongly those two points — from science and from 
Scripture that life begins at conception. There are 
many conservative churches that still argue intellectually 
about this. We may be killing as many children in our 
own churches through using birth control methods that 
kill tiny little human beings. There is a spiritual 
wall there that, until it is overcome, we may never 
be able to overcome abortion out there, when it's going 
on wholesale within the church.

Prayer. Through networking with individuals and churches 
to enlist thousands to pray. [People will work for 
the goals for which they pray.]

Litigation. We will help the ones physically and emotionally 
injured through abortion by supplying comprehensive 
legal help to sue the abortionist for malpractice. 


Get behind candidates that support the prolife position. 


Street activism at abortion facilities. Expose the 
abortionist through innovative and aggressive free 
speech activities.

Reward the diligence and success of activist groups 
working with the ACLA within ACLA guidelines by offering 
rewards of $500 for persuading an abortionist to stop 
murdering the unborn. And offering rewards of $1000 
to end the killing by closing any abortion facility. 
This gives them some cash to work on the next abortionist, 
or abortion facility.
_

On the following evening, the ACLA held its "white 
rose banquet" to honor "prisoners of Christ," those 
confined to prison for their anti-abortion criminal 
activities. One of the speakers, Michael Bray, wrote 
the book _A_Time_to_Kill_, in defense of assassinating 
doctors who perform abortions.

It is believed that John Salvi III may have been swayed 
by Bray's book before he shot and killed two clinic 
employees and wounded five others last year in Massachusetts. 
Salvi is currently being tried for his alleged crimes.

Bray has come to the defense of Salvi, whose attorney 
claims is insane. "I don't think Salvi is any less 
mentally balanced than Ted Kennedy," Bray said. "His 
actions are easily justified under the legal and ethical 
doctrine of justifiable homicide. He ought to be acquitted."
